Deist (We Are All Fossils):
And for me now.
2
:I'm at a place where I feel like the next
part of what my stages are in grief is
3
:just to kind of let go of the control of
what I expect of things and just let it
4
:kind of be so in a weird way, I, I feel
like taking a step back and just, I.
5
:Just doing not, not, not
perceiving what's gonna be.
6
:Um, and just that being it.
7
:So I'm, I'm excited to
see what comes from that.
8
:I don't know, I actually feel a
bit nervous because it's doing
9
:things in a whole different
way of what I've done before
10
:Jason English (Host): Welcome to
curious goldfish, a podcast community
11
:where music and curiosity come together
through interesting conversations
12
:with the music makers of our world.
13
:I'm your host, Jason English.
14
:You can find curious goldfish and all the
major podcast and social media platforms.
15
:And of course, we have all of
our content on our website.
16
:Curious goldfish.
17
:com.
18
:We are continuing our conversation with
Deist, the founder of We Are All Fossils.
19
:In part one, we laid the foundation of the
background of this unique musical project.
20
:We talked about the origin
of the name and some of the
21
:incredible things Deist has done.
22
:In the second part, he shares insights
into the personal impact of losing
23
:his mother, as well as how he has
organically grown his worldwide
24
:following in just the past few months.
25
:He performs a song for us called The West.
26
:And we go deep on our mutual
admiration of American independent
27
:folk legend, Sufjan Stevens.
28
:Both parts will be posted on YouTube
as this is also the first video
29
:podcast episode in the short history
of the curious goldfish podcast.
30
:Once again, here's we are all fossils.
31
:Let's jump back in.
32
:another track that, it's caught my
attention, it's called the West.
33
:what's the origin of that one?
34
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): the
West, uh, funny enough, when
35
:you were saying about Indie Folk
Central, that's, that's one of the.
36
:First curators that took a
song was, it was The West,
37
:and it was Indie Folk Central.
38
:They were like, oh, we love this track.
39
:And I didn't think anything of the song.
40
:It was a bit of a, I wouldn't
say a throwaway song.
41
:It's something I don't
remember really writing.
42
:I remember showing it to one of my
best friends and him just going, you
43
:know, he, he gave a response, which
I was like, I didn't, no, that was
44
:on the cards, but Oh, that's amazing.
45
:Um, but the West is, it's really
to do with how you can choose to
46
:see, uh, struggles and your life.
47
:Um, not like, it's always easy, uh,
I don't think it's easy at all, but,
48
:um, there's, uh, a, a lyric in it.
49
:When I say, um, you can save
tomorrow or you can relive yesterday,
50
:you can drown in sorrow and you
can, or you can feel the pain.
51
:not, yeah, those things are.
52
:And they're not necessarily choices, but
at some points you can align yourself
53
:with, um, maybe thinking about tomorrow
in a way of being like, you know,
54
:I'm not defined by what's happened
in my past, but I, I can actively put
55
:forward who I believe I am every day.
56
:You know, if it's just better than the,
than what was happening the day before.
57
:That's, that's it.
58
:You, you, you're doing amazing.
59
:You know?
60
:So to me that was about, um,
inspiring hope, I guess again.
61
:Jason English (Host): No, that's,
uh, yeah, I love that line.
62
:I
63
:love, love, love that line.
64
:'cause it, it can apply to
so many different situations.
65
:And like you said earlier, music
should be personal and, it's funny how
66
:people put out lyrics and situations
and scenes and you're able to.
67
:To sort of apply that to your own
experience, you know, and, um, either
68
:get through a, a situation or help
you think about things differently.
69
:So, uh, I love that line.
70
:Yeah.
71
:So tho
72
:those two are
73
:great.
74
:And again, you've talked about numbers
and, and, and things like that, but, uh.
75
:you've picked up a lot of momentum, I
think in the last, you know, few months,
76
:uh, maybe, maybe a little bit longer.
77
:And I think, you know, on Spotify they
show, your number of monthly listeners,
78
:you've about 68,000 monthly listeners,
79
:which is a great
80
:number.
81
:Obviously we hope it's gonna
grow and grow and grow.
82
:I guess how recently did, did you
see things kind of taking off for you
83
:and what do you attribute that to?
84
:I.
85
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Well,
um, I kind of, I released fire
86
:and I think that was in about
October, maybe late September.
87
:Sorry, I'm really bad with the dates.
88
:I should know when my
songs were were released.
89
:that kind of just, it
something just resonated.
90
:It was just a good time for it to happen.
91
:Um, I had a couple of shows
booked in and around it.
92
:Um, there's a.
93
:Some people I work with around, uh,
the like area who were helping promote
94
:things and it was really all quite
organic with what we were doing.
95
:Um, and I just kind of saw that
it was, you know, doing good.
96
:And, uh, you, I think you, you learn after
you've released like a lot of songs that,
97
:that's completely out of your control.
98
:So enjoy it for what it is.
99
:Don't make plans thinking it's gonna
be like this tomorrow and like that
100
:the next day, or, you know, um.
101
:So the only thing I could do that I
was gonna enjoy to, to maybe make more
102
:people find the, the, the music potential
was just to release some more tracks.
103
:Um, and I, I then released a
song with, a Canadian artist.
104
:It was my first kind of international
collaboration, um, with Genesis Richter.
105
:that was kind of out the blue.
106
:It just worked out.
107
:That fire came out.
108
:Then our track, um, Dead End came out
like a couple of weeks, like later.
109
:And then, the track I did with
Tasha Robertson, uh, came out a
110
:couple of weeks later after that.
111
:And none of this was really, I was like,
oh, I think this is actually really bad.
112
:You shouldn't be doing
this with algorithms.
113
:They'll be like, oh,
he seems really needy.
114
:and then, it just kind of kept
snowballing and increasing, increasing
115
:and I don't, 'cause it's so new to
me, I don't, I don't really know
116
:what to make of it all just yet.
117
:Um.
118
:Uh, there was some days where
I was like, oh, uh, I should be
119
:doing more like stuff on Instagram.
120
:I should be doing more things on YouTube.
121
:And that's quite overwhelming for me.
122
:So I'm kind of like slowly
putting some things together
123
:and still just being myself, um,
with how I started the process.
124
:And just want to do that.
125
:'cause it feels like being yourself.
126
:Um.
127
:It's just gonna be the easiest.
128
:Right?
129
:so just do that rather than become,
you know, I think as soon as people
130
:talk about algorithms and, and all that
kind of stuff, I just, I check out.
131
:It's such a hard thing.
132
:I.
133
:From a creative point to understand
that there's other things at play,
134
:um, you know, not, not begrudging
you or anything, that's just the
135
:kind of world that we live in.
136
:But, um, yeah, so I'm extremely
thankful for the plays.
137
:I'm scared that they'll go
and then that there's nothing,
138
:you know, as most people are.
139
:I I, or maybe it's a glitch, and
then they'll be like, oh, that,
140
:streams that you had, we're gonna
have to take 'em away from you.
141
:Jason English (Host): yeah, right.
142
:yeah.
143
:You refresh
144
:it, you refresh it, and one day
it's 6,000 instead of 68,000.
145
:You
146
:know, that's like,
147
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): And
then somehow they send you a bill or
148
:something and you're like, I don't,
you know, or you have to recoup
149
:all, all those streams, you know?
150
:But, um, yeah, I'm
incredibly thankful for it.
151
:I think Spotify plays a role for
musicians to weirdly validate,
152
:uh, you know where you're going.
153
:So if you are applying to maybe
support a band and they look at your
154
:Spotify and, and there's some good,
you know, numbers there, they might
155
:feel a bit more inclined to then.
156
:Take a, you know, a, a chance on you.
157
:Um, so I think it's kind of
effectively like a key that opens
158
:a door, um, you know, slowly, but
159
:Jason English (Host): other than
some of these curated playlists and,
160
:and things like Indie Folk Central,
you haven't really spent any time in
161
:the States, right, with your music.
162
:Right.
163
:Just
164
:in, in person.
165
:Right.
166
:So like, you haven't, you know, my
whole thing is like, I think, am I
167
:your first, uh, at least American
media outlet to interview you?
168
:Deist (We Are All Fossils):
You are, you are.
169
:And it's incredible 'cause um, I was
quite nervous about it 'cause I was not
170
:sure really how, how, how it would feel.
171
:But then the fact that you like
what we, we, we like the same
172
:artists and like that, it just
feels like this is so meant to be.
173
:Um, which is But yeah, I
would, I would love to, um.
174
:Play in America, and, and weirdly, I
think the, the cities that I'm, I'm,
175
:the biggest in there in like Australia.
176
:And America and Canada.
177
:Um, and the UK.
178
:The UK has like, because I don't have
that much to compare it to, I dunno
179
:what other countries are like, but the
UK is definitely going through a a, a
180
:place where the grassroots music and
the middle bit before the big bands,
181
:it's really like, there's so scarce,
there's not much support really, yeah,
182
:it's really, A challenging place to be.
183
:Uh, there's a lot of us that will be in
this kind of scenario and, you know, you
184
:have to redefine what you think success is
and, build the things around you so that
185
:you, you know, there's so many challenges.
186
:There's so many things that
you get said no to, and, and so
187
:many opportunities that aren't.
188
:Um, you know, there, As long as you can
just enjoy what you're doing firsthand.
189
:You know, those, those, rejections
and things like that, they don't stick
190
:as much as they, you know, could do.
191
:But, um, I, I pine so hard to just go and
play in Australia or, um, America, you
192
:know, a lot of the musicians that I like,
like Gregory, I think he's from Colorado
193
:and Nathaniel Rateliff in Colorado.
194
:Jason English (Host): Yep.
195
:Deist (We Are All Fossils):
And Nathaniel Rateliff is also
196
:someone which I, I, I love.
197
:Um, I, I adore, uh, the second
album he released, it was just
198
:falling faster than you can run.
199
:I think that's what called.
200
:Um,
201
:Jason English (Host):
there's a great album.
202
:Uh, that Nathaniel Rateliff
did during c where it's a live
203
:album at Red Rocks and there's
204
:no one in the,
205
:there's no one in the venue.
206
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Yeah.
207
:I've watched that on YouTube,
I I think you can watch it on
208
:Jason English (Host): Yeah.
209
:Yeah.
210
:So that's, uh, that's really good.
211
:Uh,
212
:well, you'll have to make it over
and, uh, so I live in Atlanta.
213
:And, and, and your
214
:style of music
215
:would, I mean, people would.
216
:Really dig it, uh, at
217
:least in the south, here
in the southeastern part
218
:of the, uh, of the country.
219
:So, and the reason I brought that up
is you're, you've had some success.
220
:Uh, it's, it's, it feels like it's growing
and growing and growing, but really
221
:it's probably just limited to, I guess
listeners and viewership that you come
222
:across, uh, you know, come in contact
with in, in Great Britain, and then
223
:through these curated playlists, right?
224
:So you haven't really even.
225
:Intentionally done any proactive
promotion in, in the United States.
226
:So that, uh, that's insane that you've
already curated, that many listeners.
227
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Yeah, I
mean it's, um, I I, I get a bit blown
228
:away by, by when you put it like that.
229
:I'm like, oh my.
230
:it's, it's kind of one of those things
where you, you just kind of enjoy
231
:the, the journey of it, I guess.
232
:But, uh, coming to America,
that would be amazing.
233
:Uh, I, I don't, I'm not sure exactly.
234
:I think in the UK the indie folk
scene is, which I kind of would put
235
:myself in, or contemporary folk.
236
:I'm not sure how, you know, how you
really define yourself, but, um.
237
:It's not that widely known here
to the, to the point where people
238
:will know the same bands, you know?
239
:So Gregory Alan Isakov, if I say that to
someone else, they won't really know, um,
240
:the Lumineers they would because of Ho Hey
241
:uh, that's a big, big track here,
242
:but, it's still quite in its
infancy, so the dots of everybody
243
:hasn't really joined up yet.
244
:So, um.
245
:I'm sure there's loads of indie folk
artists in the uk, but it's nowhere
246
:near as as big as it, as it seems
out where you guys are I think you
247
:guys are like the promised land now.
248
:to get there.
249
:Jason English (Host): Well, no,
what's cool about the Indie folk
250
:Central too is, uh, they play
a lot of artists from Australia
251
:and, not that Australia can't
make great, great music, but you
252
:never, I, I never kind of, I.
253
:Made that connection.
254
:And, uh, so I, I appreciate that because,
you know, it's just a great, it's great
255
:exposure to artists that you would
never otherwise have heard of, you know?
256
:Um,
257
:Alright, so Sufjan Stevens, the fact
that you are naming your project after a
258
:lyric in one of his songs is incredible.
259
:I.
260
:Um, I came across Sufjan.
261
:Uh, there's a, there's a magazine here,
in the States called Paste Magazine,
262
:and they used to release these samplers
of all these kind of indie artists on
263
:cd and you would, uh, you know, you'd
get the magazine and they'd send you
264
:a cd, which is, which is pretty cool.
265
:And, uh, he, he came out with an
album, I think it was:
266
:uh, come on, feel, the Illinois.
267
:Which is kinda a play on
word with the state in the
268
:United States called Illinois.
269
:And uh,
270
:the rumor at the time was he was
gonna do a, a CD or an album on
271
:every state in the United States.
272
:So I
273
:was like, okay, there's 50
albums coming out, you know,
274
:in the next however many years.
275
:And I think he only got to two.
276
:Uh, he did, he did
277
:one in Michigan and then one in Illinois.
278
:But, uh, yeah, I guess what,
what are some of your favorite
279
:songs from, uh, from Sufjan?
280
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Um, well,
uh, the one I got introduced to, um,
281
:was the, uh, the John Wayne Gacy,
track, which was off of that album
282
:that I think you refer to the you know,
um, a friend of mine in South Africa,
283
:uh, a kind of a bit of a guru for me.
284
:Uh, someone who always kind of shows
me stuff at the right moments of.
285
:Of when I met maybe a transitional space.
286
:Um, he just sent me the track
and I'm not even sure if he
287
:said anything before or after.
288
:And I had it on repeat.
289
:I had it on repeat and I just thought I
was in awe of how he wrote the, the track
290
:and, you know, it's a subject matter
which you can't approach lightly at all.
291
:Um, and it's, it's such a, um,
it, it showed me something that
292
:in music that I was like, oh,
you can do something like that.
293
:And it's still.
294
:I, 'cause for some reason I felt like, you
know, you couldn't do that kind of thing.
295
:But, and then, then that opened up
the floodgates for, for that album,
296
:which is absolutely incredible.
297
:And there's another song off the
Michigan album, uh, I think it's
298
:for, for the Widowless or the, it's,
um, can't remember exactly this.
299
:It's a long track title name,
um, for the widows in Paradise.
300
:And the fatherless in Ypsilanti,
or I think that's kind of
301
:maybe what it's called,
302
:um, that had, uh, the same kind of core
feelings what John Wayne Gacy track
303
:had for me, and he did it with a banjo.
304
:Uh, and you often hear a banjo like
really fast and, you know, showing
305
:you all these quick little notes.
306
:But that was like a sad, uh,
you know, banjo with this kind
307
:of really, uh, emotive lyrics.
308
:Um, and then obviously the big album
for me became Carrie and Lowell.
309
:I, I, I thought that that from front
to back that album was something
310
:that I couldn't stop listening to for
that whole year and maybe the year
311
:after, because it was incredible.
312
:I, I like how, how personal his vocals
always feel when you you hear him,
313
:you know, there's no denying when
you hear his voice, uh, it's very
314
:like, oh, this is definitely Sufjan.
315
:Um.
316
:Yeah, he's, he's kind of a bit
of like a, a genius I guess.
317
:'cause he has loads of other
types of, I'm more drawn to
318
:the slower emotive tracks has.
319
:But he's got like a big catalog of, I
know he's got like a Christmas album
320
:that's got like loads and loads of tracks.
321
:But if I had to pick the ones that
stand out to me, it would be those ones.
322
:Jason English (Host): Yeah, and I think,
uh, his, his latest one's called Javelin
323
:and, uh, I think it's a return to, to
Carrie and Lowell and, uh, you know,
324
:parts of parts of Illinois, which I love.
325
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Yeah.
326
:Jason English (Host): that's great.
327
:Yeah.
328
:The, my favorite
329
:on, uh, Illinois is, uh, speaking of long
titles, it's called like Predatory Wasp of
330
:the.
331
:Palisades or something.
332
:I
333
:mean, it's like, okay, how, how did
you come up with this, you know,
334
:uh,
335
:about a wasp on the arm?
336
:And I don't know, but it, the,
again, I'm not a musician.
337
:I can't sing.
338
:I can't play an in instrument, but the
melody on that is just, it's intoxicating.
339
:Deist (We Are All Fossils):
That, that's one of my favorite
340
:tracks from that album too.
341
:I mean, um, I.
342
:It's the lyrical, the lyrics are so out
there that you, for me, I just start to
343
:imagine what's happening and I'm like,
344
:you know, and it just kind
of, it completes itself.
345
:But, um, I actually bought a it on vinyl
and I went for like the, the deluxe one.
346
:'cause I was like, I need the puff one of
this, and it, it folds out and everything.
347
:And there's
348
:all these, there's all these pictures
that were drawn, um, of the, the key
349
:elements of each track, you know?
350
:Jason English (Host): yeah, the,
the Illinois album is, is legendary.
351
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Yeah.
352
:I, I, if I'm honest, I haven't
checked out the new album, um, yet.
353
:You know, when you're just
on like a different kind of.
354
:Been, um, I've been finding myself
back in, uh, there's this album
355
:by Ben Howard called, um, uh, is
it, uh, I forget where we were.
356
:I think that's it.
357
:It's quite funny that I'm saying
that quite questioning myself.
358
:I forget where we were.
359
:Um, so I'm kind of, I think 'cause,
'cause I'm, I'm, I'm in a park now where
360
:I'm, I'm recording a lot of music again.
361
:So you are drawn to certain tr
albums and things that will fuel w.
362
:The right kind of juices, um, for, for
that creativity, if that makes sense.
363
:So, um, but I haven't
checked out the new album.
364
:I I do, I do need to.
365
:I know I'll love it and that will be
my year gone for next year musically.
366
:Spotify Wrapped be like just this song.
367
:Jason English (Host): No, the,
my favorite on that is it's
368
:called my, uh, my red little fox.
369
:Yeah, my red little fox.
370
:So
371
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Nice.
372
:I'll, well considering we like a
lot of the same songs that, I'm just
373
:gonna spin that after we finish this.
374
:Jason English (Host): so this, the, the
podcast that I do here, you know, it's all
375
:about interviewing interesting musicians
and, and hearing about their stories.
376
:A lot of it has to do with, you know,
sort of this idea of curiosity, I
377
:guess, at this stage in your career,
uh, in your mid thirties, what,
378
:what are you most curious about?
379
:Deist (We Are All Fossils):
Uh, oh, that's a good question.
380
:I like that.
381
:I'm curious of, what the kind of next
project for me is really gonna, uh.
382
:I'm not gonna be, 'cause I'm,
I'm kind of near, near the end
383
:of writing all these songs.
384
:I've, I've kind of finished the demoing
and extensive kind of like working
385
:through a lot of tracks and it's
going down a different, place for me.
386
:it's something which unfortunately, I,
I, I lost my mother, uh, two years ago.
387
:and that, that really
changed me as a person.
388
:And, you know, grief is a
very, very, tricky place to,
389
:to understand and navigate.
390
:and that's kind of, I've been going
through a process where my music's always
391
:been quite introspective and it's always
been going through all these things.
392
:And for me now.
393
:I'm at a place where I feel like the next
part of what my stages are in grief is
394
:just to kind of let go of the control of
what I expect of things and just let it
395
:kind of be so in a weird way, I, I feel
like taking a step back and just, I.
396
:Just doing not, not, not
perceiving what's gonna be.
397
:Um, and just that being it.
398
:So I'm, I'm excited to
see what comes from that.
399
:I don't know, I actually feel a
bit nervous because it's doing
400
:things in a whole different
way of what I've done before.
401
:musically, I'm recording a lot of the
other stuff here at my house, um, then
402
:taking it to Mike and then we're, we're
shaping it into what it's gonna be.
403
:So I'm allowed to be.
404
:Way more experimental here.
405
:'cause I'm not, I'm not, worried about
wasting Mike's time in the studio.
406
:'cause he, he's, he's incredible.
407
:He works with amazing artists
and he always makes space for me,
408
:which I'm always so thankful for.
409
:Um, but I'm going in there showing
him something and, um, yeah.
410
:So I guess that's, I hope that
answers what you, what you've asked.
411
:Jason English (Host): No, that's cool.
412
:I guess, can you tell me more about that?
413
:What, how do you know
it's gonna be so different
414
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): Um.
415
:Jason English (Host): terms of,
is that the songwriting process
416
:or is it the type, the kind of,
the type of music that you're.
417
:Experimenting with.
418
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): so a
lot of the tunings of the guitar is
419
:standard, which most of the tracks
I've released would be standard tuning.
420
:So from the initial stage of
writing the, the songs, there
421
:is, um, loads of de-tune guitars.
422
:And I've experimented with loads
of, um, like tunings like that.
423
:And that's changed the way that I would.
424
:Kind of write the lyrics and vocals.
425
:Um, I don't think it's gonna be,
it might not feel that different to
426
:other people, but for me, the, the
process from the beginning has got
427
:a different, you know, ingredients.
428
:So, um, I think that that's that.
429
:And I've kind of got into more
of the production side of music.
430
:my dream would be if I can't go and play
shows around the world, which, that would
431
:be the, the, the dream for all musicians.
432
:If I can't do that, um, I want to work
a little bit more from home be more
433
:creative, you know, uh, 'cause I can't
always go out and play, uh, shows and do
434
:those things to, you know, it's a real dry
couple of months in January and December.
435
:So, um, you know, the production side,
I've, I've included, and the best thing
436
:is you, you can hear something in your
head and now you can translate it.
437
:Um, straight away if you
know how to get there.
438
:But when I'm working with someone and
you're just trying to explain a feeling
439
:of a sound, you sound a bit crazy.
440
:So, um, yeah, I feel like there's a lot
more of honesty and myself, uh, with who
441
:I am now in the songs, um, to come, um,
or at least that's what it feels like now.
442
:Jason English (Host): Are you,
uh, are you planning a new
443
:album in, in the near future?
444
:What, what can we expect in 2024 from you?
445
:Oh, that is exciting.
446
:Um, I don't, I Besides coming to
447
:the, besides coming to the
states some way, somehow.
448
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): yeah, I've
got like a, a whole US tour come in.
449
:It's gonna be massive.
450
:No.
451
:Um, I, um, I, I would like to say
yes to that, but I'm, the reason
452
:why it's hard to say yes is I was
ying to release an album from:
453
:Um, and that process was hard
because obviously, you know, going
454
:through covid and working through
that kind of stuff and you change
455
:as a person, especially after grief.
456
:So I had an idea of, um.
457
:Having this planned and an album's
gonna come out and all these things, and
458
:I, I, you know, having to let that go
and be okay with those songs, you, you
459
:know, I'm, I'm, I'm putting away quite
a lot of songs that are finished because
460
:I can't relate with to them anymore.
461
:Jason English (Host): Way.
462
:Really.
463
:Wow.
464
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): yeah, so it's
not, I can't, I can't finish the process
465
:because the, the sounds of the instruments
don't sound like rife anymore or, you
466
:know, it is quite pernickety I guess.
467
:But, um, so.
468
:I would like to say that there
will be an album, but I think
469
:for now I can definitely say that
there will be a single, 'cause
470
:I just, I just finished that.
471
:Um, and it's been mastered and
everything, so that physically has
472
:got to a point where I can get there.
473
:But I'd like to say there'll be an album,
um, you know, all the work that's allowing
474
:that to be a possibility is in motion.
475
:I just don't want to repeat a
mistake of being like, for, for
476
:three years saying there's gonna be
an album just shelving it, you know?
477
:Um,
478
:Jason English (Host): We'll, we'll
479
:take what we can get for sure.
480
:So if it's one, if it's one at a
time, if you drip it for the next
481
:few years, we'll, uh, we'll, we'll,
we'll be anxiously awaiting for
482
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): yeah.
483
:No, that's very kind.
484
:That's very kind.
485
:Jason English (Host): So I
really appreciate it Deist.
486
:It's so nice to meet you and, uh, I
think there's a guitar behind you.
487
:Would you mind playing
488
:us
489
:some music?
490
:Deist (We Are All Fossils): I
would love to play some music.
491
:Well, I'll play the west.
492
:Um, let's see how that one goes.
493
:You can take the water,
494
:you can.
495
