Speaker:

Hello my friends, this is, I suppose, another bonus episode of onefjef.

2

00:00:07,378 --> 00:00:13,238

I'm not sure where the line between bonus episode and regular episode actually exists or

where it lies.

3

00:00:14,118 --> 00:00:16,957

But I guess for now this is a bonus episode?

4

00:00:17,718 --> 00:00:18,558

I don't know.

5

00:00:18,558 --> 00:00:21,098

I don't know, maybe all the episodes should just be episodes.

6

00:00:21,718 --> 00:00:23,178

See, overthinking.

7

00:00:23,558 --> 00:00:29,158

Which brings me to the first thing that I want to talk about on this magical bonus

episode, which is...

8

00:00:29,570 --> 00:00:35,283

I feel like this podcast has lost some of its juju, if that makes sense.

9

00:00:35,283 --> 00:00:43,258

I've lost my inspiration to a degree with it, which is inevitable with creative projects.

10

00:00:43,258 --> 00:00:51,742

You go through waves, but I feel like I've hit a, not a plateau, but a lull, a rut.

11

00:00:52,823 --> 00:00:58,366

While I'm not gonna stop doing the podcast, I'm also trying to rethink what the podcast

is, as always.

12

00:00:58,914 --> 00:01:02,346

Perhaps this is just an ongoing process of figuring out what the podcast is.

13

00:01:02,346 --> 00:01:08,639

Perhaps the podcast continues to become different things as time passes.

14

00:01:08,639 --> 00:01:09,699

I don't know.

15

00:01:09,860 --> 00:01:12,041

But that's the headspace I've been in.

16

00:01:12,041 --> 00:01:13,161

I've been struggling to...

17

00:01:13,161 --> 00:01:14,982

um

18

00:01:17,262 --> 00:01:19,343

Because it's overwhelming, right?

19

00:01:19,343 --> 00:01:20,624

You start to dig in.

20

00:01:20,624 --> 00:01:23,375

When I first started it, I knew so little about podcasts.

21

00:01:23,375 --> 00:01:24,476

I hadn't done a lot of research.

22

00:01:24,476 --> 00:01:32,410

I I listened to a lot of podcasts, but I hadn't done a lot of research on podcasts making

and marketing and all that and all these different platforms.

23

00:01:32,410 --> 00:01:36,353

But once you start to dig in, it becomes fucking overwhelming.

24

00:01:36,353 --> 00:01:39,995

There's so much information and so many different platforms.

25

00:01:39,995 --> 00:01:44,197

And it's just really, it's too much, frankly.

26

00:01:44,957 --> 00:01:46,708

And you have to ask yourself like,

27

00:01:46,924 --> 00:01:49,579

what do I take from this and what do I leave?

28

00:01:50,423 --> 00:01:52,126

And I'm still trying to figure that out.

29

00:01:53,762 --> 00:01:56,023

The internet's just overwhelming, frankly.

30

00:01:56,403 --> 00:02:10,691

mean, along that same route I was thinking today also about, um last night I was trying to

find something to watch on TV and honestly, like, media, the amount of media out there,

31

00:02:10,691 --> 00:02:14,072

like we all know that there's just an enormous amount of media.

32

00:02:14,072 --> 00:02:17,994

Like, so much media, too much media, really.

33

00:02:19,702 --> 00:02:32,922

And so to grow up as I did in an era of media scarcity, know, we had, I remember, six,

five channels when I was a kid, then we got cable and we had maybe 30.

34

00:02:33,690 --> 00:02:42,234

We had that cable changer, you know, with the wire and you had to like, there were three

lines of numbers and you had to like slide the thing up to the top row and then push the

35

00:02:42,635 --> 00:02:43,916

very analog.

36

00:02:43,916 --> 00:02:48,140

um And to go from that and an area.

37

00:02:48,140 --> 00:02:55,788

And an era when like, you you would save your money to buy a CD and you'd listen to that

CD over and over because you didn't have a lot of CDs.

38

00:02:57,570 --> 00:03:07,395

That's why that Columbia Music Club, I don't know how they actually made money, um that's

why it was great because you could get like 10 CDs, which was like the mother load.

39

00:03:07,395 --> 00:03:08,513

You know, it was overwhelming.

40

00:03:08,513 --> 00:03:10,377

10 fucking CDs.

41

00:03:10,690 --> 00:03:13,889

That's never happened when you were that age or, you know, whatever.

42

00:03:13,889 --> 00:03:18,881

mean, there's an enormous amount of media raining down on you at one time.

43

00:03:19,342 --> 00:03:20,602

It was beautiful.

44

00:03:20,683 --> 00:03:22,103

Just for a penny, too.

45

00:03:22,103 --> 00:03:24,845

And then you never had to actually follow up with a deal.

46

00:03:25,245 --> 00:03:26,486

Like they didn't.

47

00:03:26,486 --> 00:03:27,276

So.

48

00:03:29,324 --> 00:03:31,315

Anyway, I hope they're not listening.

49

00:03:31,315 --> 00:03:43,222

em But yeah, to go from even Napster, you know, I remember downloading, and this is of

course an issue that's been addressed in podcasts, but not in mine yet, so whatever.

50

00:03:43,562 --> 00:03:52,967

You know, Napster came along and LimeWire and all these, and like I remember, you would

like, you know, just to download one song would be like a miracle.

51

00:03:53,148 --> 00:03:57,462

And then you'd finally get all the songs from a new album, and it would have taken like,

52

00:03:57,462 --> 00:04:06,896

a couple days depending on how popular the album was and all the bit rates are different,

all the titles are fucked up and there were some insane people who would literally go

53

00:04:06,896 --> 00:04:15,930

through every single one of their songs that they downloaded to make them perfect like the

title and the name and the album art I was generally not one of those people unless I was

54

00:04:15,930 --> 00:04:24,674

really into the album in which case maybe I would but generally not and then BitTorrent

came

55

00:04:24,908 --> 00:04:26,168

Maybe some of you aren't connecting to this.

56

00:04:26,168 --> 00:04:28,299

You have no idea what I'm talking about, which is fine.

57

00:04:28,299 --> 00:04:39,193

um BitTorrent was just another file sharing service, but you could share larger files.

58

00:04:39,193 --> 00:04:45,545

So you started to share entire albums, entire movies, entire TV shows, series, whatever.

59

00:04:46,606 --> 00:04:48,076

And it was very quick.

60

00:04:49,678 --> 00:05:00,468

So this was the period where personally I started to have like the entire works of Tom

Petty on MP3, which I never listened to it, of course, but I had it.

61

00:05:00,789 --> 00:05:02,070

And I feel like...

62

00:05:04,020 --> 00:05:07,031

That was a remnant of media scarcity.

63

00:05:07,111 --> 00:05:16,815

once media stopped being scarce and there was a way to get giant chunks of media for free

quote unquote, then let it rain.

64

00:05:16,815 --> 00:05:18,015

Let it rain.

65

00:05:18,676 --> 00:05:27,790

yeah, I somewhere on a hard drive somewhere I've got like the entire Collected Works of

Tom Petty, of probably Bob Dylan, of you know, any particular band that I liked, I would

66

00:05:27,790 --> 00:05:30,781

just download in one click, you get all their music.

67

00:05:31,581 --> 00:05:33,442

And yeah, I rarely listen.

68

00:05:33,442 --> 00:05:34,825

to all of it.

69

00:05:34,825 --> 00:05:36,167

mean almost never frankly.

70

00:05:36,167 --> 00:05:39,191

think some of that stuff I never even touched but I had it.

71

00:05:39,433 --> 00:05:40,714

I had it.

72

00:05:40,975 --> 00:05:43,008

It couldn't be taken away from me.

73

00:05:44,886 --> 00:06:01,213

And then of course, enter Spotify, uh enter Netflix, enter the modern media landscape that

we live in now in which you can literally have almost any piece of media that you could

74

00:06:01,213 --> 00:06:02,413

ever think of.

75

00:06:03,174 --> 00:06:05,955

You could play it pretty much instantaneously.

76

00:06:06,035 --> 00:06:10,817

I mean, certainly there's some pieces of media out there that are a little harder to find.

77

00:06:10,817 --> 00:06:14,068

Some artists who choose not to be on Spotify, some

78

00:06:14,262 --> 00:06:20,487

Movies that aren't on any of the streaming services, but if you dug, you could probably

still find it.

79

00:06:21,309 --> 00:06:22,530

And that's crazy.

80

00:06:22,530 --> 00:06:30,577

mean, perhaps not to people who were born in, you know, 2000, but to me, it feels crazy.

81

00:06:30,577 --> 00:06:33,659

And my brain doesn't know really what to do with this abundance.

82

00:06:34,821 --> 00:06:40,726

Because my brain grew up in those formative years in a world of scarcity.

83

00:06:43,190 --> 00:06:50,836

and I start to sort through and go through all the different streaming services and figure

out something to watch and my brain just goes all bugaboo.

84

00:06:50,916 --> 00:06:52,698

And I'm like, I don't fucking know what to watch.

85

00:06:52,698 --> 00:06:54,419

Somebody just tell me what to watch.

86

00:06:54,419 --> 00:06:58,502

When I actually just pick a thing and watch the thing, I feel great about myself.

87

00:06:58,502 --> 00:07:00,043

I'm like, look what I did.

88

00:07:00,964 --> 00:07:08,960

Sometimes I will try to make myself for like a month deliberately consume visual media.

89

00:07:09,152 --> 00:07:15,445

So which means I'm not going to turn the TV on and just start clicking through and trying

to find something to watch because that goes on forever.

90

00:07:15,445 --> 00:07:17,165

That's a never ending.

91

00:07:17,165 --> 00:07:18,826

It's madness.

92

00:07:19,126 --> 00:07:22,297

So I would just try and like plan what I'm going to watch.

93

00:07:22,297 --> 00:07:23,408

Here's a movie I want to watch.

94

00:07:23,408 --> 00:07:25,049

I know where it's what we're streaming.

95

00:07:25,049 --> 00:07:27,769

I'm just going to turn that TV on and click right to that.

96

00:07:28,850 --> 00:07:31,291

That works for about a week or two really.

97

00:07:32,051 --> 00:07:39,054

Because there is some joy in mindlessly looking at all the things you could watch.

98

00:07:40,534 --> 00:07:41,755

in spite of the madness.

99

00:07:41,755 --> 00:07:45,156

mean, think joy and madness are kind of intertwined a lot of the time.

100

00:07:45,156 --> 00:07:56,421

But sometimes I think it's like really a deliberate effort by the powers that are

controlling the world to kind of satiate us.

101

00:07:56,421 --> 00:07:59,822

Let's give them as much media and entertainment as we possibly can.

102

00:07:59,822 --> 00:08:01,143

Let's that run wild.

103

00:08:01,143 --> 00:08:06,245

uh Let's give them weed legally in a lot of places.

104

00:08:06,245 --> 00:08:07,345

That'll satiate them.

105

00:08:07,345 --> 00:08:09,228

uh

106

00:08:09,228 --> 00:08:12,360

Let's continue to push booze on them and pharmaceutical drugs.

107

00:08:12,540 --> 00:08:24,108

Anything that'll keep them from really thinking about what's going on in the world and

actually realizing they're getting fucked consistently by the people at the top.

108

00:08:25,389 --> 00:08:26,870

That's we need to keep feeding them.

109

00:08:26,870 --> 00:08:28,851

That'll prevent the revolution.

110

00:08:29,052 --> 00:08:36,496

You know, if the French had had Netflix back in the day, I wonder if they would have still

done the revolution.

111

00:08:37,898 --> 00:08:38,868

I don't know.

112

00:08:39,148 --> 00:08:40,699

It's an interesting question though.

113

00:08:40,699 --> 00:08:41,920

At least I think it is.

114

00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,524

You may not think so, but I think it's a very interesting question.

115

00:08:46,524 --> 00:08:51,948

And I think it could be a good, uh like a limited series or some sort of a sitcom.

116

00:08:52,189 --> 00:08:53,150

Hear me out.

117

00:08:53,150 --> 00:09:01,716

What if the French people before the revolution had access to Netflix and Spotify?

118

00:09:01,977 --> 00:09:03,678

Would they still revolt?

119

00:09:03,999 --> 00:09:08,352

Starring, I don't know, Jeremy Piven.

120

00:09:09,332 --> 00:09:11,886

as Signor LeFranc.

121

00:09:11,902 --> 00:09:12,919

I don't fucking know.

122

00:09:12,919 --> 00:09:14,022

I don't know.

123

00:09:14,022 --> 00:09:17,636

um You guys can run with that.

124

00:09:17,798 --> 00:09:18,979

That idea.

125

00:09:19,621 --> 00:09:20,552

So yeah.

126

00:09:22,712 --> 00:09:28,664

I don't know where that started, but it ended with a bizarre French Revolution sitcom

idea.

127

00:09:28,764 --> 00:09:30,024

And I'll take it.

128

00:09:31,264 --> 00:09:37,026

Anyway, it is Sunday afternoon and I haven't done much of anything today.

129

00:09:37,206 --> 00:09:41,968

I slept in enormously late, which is really rare for me, but it felt amazing.

130

00:09:41,968 --> 00:09:45,548

Like I slept till like 11, which is crazy.

131

00:09:45,629 --> 00:09:48,409

My body usually like gets up like right at 8 a.m.

132

00:09:48,409 --> 00:09:51,030

like a clockwork, but I think I'm still

133

00:09:51,082 --> 00:09:55,833

my all bugaboo from being in Colorado and being on that time for a short period of time or

something.

134

00:09:55,833 --> 00:09:56,763

don't know.

135

00:09:57,724 --> 00:10:09,567

Anyway, Sundays, I used to hate Sundays because it meant I had to go to work tomorrow, but

I have not really worked, consistently for, you know, eight or nine months at this point.

136

00:10:09,567 --> 00:10:18,810

So Sundays lack that, downer feeling that they used to have and

137

00:10:19,188 --> 00:10:22,399

Now the feeling I get on Sundays is that I should be doing something.

138

00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:28,242

And I think it's just because everybody else, you know, has to go to work tomorrow or most

people do.

139

00:10:28,642 --> 00:10:30,843

And so they're doing something like I'm looking out the window.

140

00:10:30,843 --> 00:10:39,196

I can see people all, you know, walking down the street and you know, so I feel like I

should do something, but really why should I do it today?

141

00:10:39,196 --> 00:10:44,169

I should do it tomorrow because it'll be like, if I'm going to go biking, the bike pack

bath will be less crowded tomorrow.

142

00:10:44,169 --> 00:10:47,970

So, that seems to make much more sense to me.

143

00:10:48,794 --> 00:10:58,268

It's avoidant to a degree, like when it comes to like a bike path I don't feel like being

avoidant of people is a bad thing like that's If you have two days to go biking one day is

144

00:10:58,268 --> 00:11:06,121

the same weather conditions always all exactly the same One day there will be a lot of

people on the bike path the next day there will not which day do you choose?

145

00:11:06,162 --> 00:11:07,842

I mean, it's a no-brainer here.

146

00:11:07,962 --> 00:11:10,403

So Will I go biking tomorrow?

147

00:11:10,403 --> 00:11:10,874

I don't know.

148

00:11:10,874 --> 00:11:16,966

I doubt it But I'm not gonna go biking today so uh

149

00:11:17,326 --> 00:11:18,986

I do have to go to the grocery store.

150

00:11:18,986 --> 00:11:21,426

So, so that'll be exciting.

151

00:11:22,146 --> 00:11:23,462

I don't have to buy a lot.

152

00:11:25,006 --> 00:11:34,170

I'm gonna have go to Trader Joe's tomorrow or Tuesday because I really need to stock up

and Trader Joe's is where I get, you know, my spiced dried mango.

153

00:11:34,850 --> 00:11:37,161

Shout out to Trader Joe's spiced dried mango.

154

00:11:37,161 --> 00:11:38,371

You're killing it.

155

00:11:38,712 --> 00:11:42,693

And, you know, a lot of other random crab pasta and all that.

156

00:11:42,693 --> 00:11:43,604

Trader Joe's is great.

157

00:11:43,604 --> 00:11:44,164

It's cheaper.

158

00:11:44,164 --> 00:11:46,935

It's just sometimes you can't get things that you want there.

159

00:11:47,875 --> 00:11:51,357

But usually the things you can get are generally pretty good.

160

00:11:52,357 --> 00:11:54,528

They have a solid dried fruit game.

161

00:11:55,032 --> 00:11:57,104

They have a solid dessert game.

162

00:11:57,104 --> 00:12:03,589

They have a like fresh vegetable game and their flowers are literally the best flowers you

can buy.

163

00:12:03,589 --> 00:12:05,871

Those will stay alive for two or three weeks.

164

00:12:05,871 --> 00:12:15,980

Speaking of flowers, like store cut flowers, if you want to, when you run out of the

packet of magic dust, whatever they give you to put in the flowers, uh here's a little

165

00:12:15,980 --> 00:12:17,121

life hack for you.

166

00:12:17,121 --> 00:12:19,523

You can crush up an aspirin.

167

00:12:19,543 --> 00:12:23,296

Apparently it's about the same kind of stuff in there.

168

00:12:23,846 --> 00:12:36,011

That's in the little packet and it'll keep them fresh and happy for even longer I've had

flowers from Trader Joe's stay good for like three weeks Honestly, maybe four not all of

169

00:12:36,011 --> 00:12:40,813

them like gradually a few of them So yeah little hot tip for you.

170

00:12:40,813 --> 00:12:41,554

You're welcome.

171

00:12:41,554 --> 00:12:46,895

Thank me later Because who doesn't want to get the most money out of their flowers the

most time.

172

00:12:47,416 --> 00:12:49,707

I Don't remember when I started buying flowers.

173

00:12:49,707 --> 00:12:50,877

I never did for years.

174

00:12:50,877 --> 00:12:52,770

Like I never even occurred to me that I would

175

00:12:52,770 --> 00:12:54,871

Why would I want to put flowers in my house?

176

00:12:55,913 --> 00:12:57,064

But I don't know.

177

00:12:57,064 --> 00:12:59,710

I think it was two or three years ago.

178

00:12:59,710 --> 00:13:01,197

I thought, you know what?

179

00:13:01,918 --> 00:13:03,639

I was at Trader Joe's and I was like, you know what?

180

00:13:03,639 --> 00:13:08,243

I'm going to buy some flowers and put them on my dining room table there.

181

00:13:08,263 --> 00:13:09,144

And you know what?

182

00:13:09,144 --> 00:13:11,385

It really does brighten up the old house.

183

00:13:12,046 --> 00:13:14,198

Brings a little life and color into the area.

184

00:13:14,198 --> 00:13:15,228

It's great.

185

00:13:15,789 --> 00:13:17,000

I recommend it.

186

00:13:19,372 --> 00:13:20,046

I recommend it.

187

00:13:20,046 --> 00:13:23,755

It's a life improvement hack.

188

00:13:25,986 --> 00:13:27,807

I mean, plants are a different animal.

189

00:13:27,807 --> 00:13:37,936

Like I have quite a few plants and frankly, lately, the plants are kind of disappointing

me and stressing me out more than they are bringing me joy.

190

00:13:37,936 --> 00:13:41,229

There's a few that bring me joy, but a lot of them I'm just kind of frustrated with.

191

00:13:41,229 --> 00:13:43,380

I'm like, why are you growing like that?

192

00:13:43,380 --> 00:13:44,541

Why aren't you growing?

193

00:13:44,541 --> 00:13:45,962

Why are you brown?

194

00:13:46,143 --> 00:13:46,943

What am I doing?

195

00:13:46,943 --> 00:13:48,925

What have I ever done wrong to you?

196

00:13:49,065 --> 00:13:50,376

Have I always given you water?

197

00:13:50,376 --> 00:13:52,228

Haven't I always been nice to you?

198

00:13:52,228 --> 00:13:55,350

And yet still, you behave like this.

199

00:13:56,152 --> 00:13:58,703

You look sad, you look depressing.

200

00:13:58,903 --> 00:14:05,945

I have a hanging plant in my dining room area and it's brown, there's brown stuff on it.

201

00:14:05,945 --> 00:14:09,666

There's some green, but it's half brown and it's depressing.

202

00:14:10,206 --> 00:14:15,827

It makes me feel like I'm a plant care failure and nobody wants to feel that way.

203

00:14:15,827 --> 00:14:17,828

And I used to be so good at it.

204

00:14:17,828 --> 00:14:21,769

But the thing is, when I was good at it was when I lived in the apartment.

205

00:14:21,789 --> 00:14:25,440

When I first moved to Columbus, I lived in an apartment that had these giant

206

00:14:25,614 --> 00:14:28,419

um I think they were what?

207

00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,665

West facing windows or east?

208

00:14:30,665 --> 00:14:31,927

Whichever way.

209

00:14:31,927 --> 00:14:33,410

way does the sun set?

210

00:14:33,410 --> 00:14:34,292

Sets in the west?

211

00:14:34,292 --> 00:14:35,794

Yeah, west facing.

212

00:14:37,794 --> 00:14:39,475

Rises in the east and sets in the west.

213

00:14:39,475 --> 00:14:41,656

Yeah, yeah.

214

00:14:42,277 --> 00:14:43,388

And they were huge windows.

215

00:14:43,388 --> 00:14:44,369

That's why I love the apartment.

216

00:14:44,369 --> 00:14:47,641

And I was on the fourth floor, and it had a shelf so I could put all these plants.

217

00:14:47,641 --> 00:14:48,852

And the plants, of course, loved it.

218

00:14:48,852 --> 00:14:50,463

That was when I grew beans.

219

00:14:50,463 --> 00:14:53,255

I literally grew beans in my apartment.

220

00:14:53,255 --> 00:14:55,787

Not a lot of them, but some of them.

221

00:14:55,787 --> 00:15:00,700

If you go on my Instagram at 1fjeff, you can actually go back and see the bean videos.

222

00:15:00,700 --> 00:15:05,870

It became like it was during COVID, and it became kind of a cult thing, like a.

223

00:15:05,870 --> 00:15:08,590

It became a big event because everybody was bored during COVID.

224

00:15:08,590 --> 00:15:11,690

So I was doing this whole thing about, I eat the bean?

225

00:15:11,690 --> 00:15:12,810

Blah, blah, blah.

226

00:15:12,810 --> 00:15:17,150

I was actually live streaming and stuff, which was unlike me.

227

00:15:17,190 --> 00:15:19,330

Maybe I should do that for the podcast.

228

00:15:20,370 --> 00:15:22,090

Huh, who knows?

229

00:15:22,170 --> 00:15:32,790

Anyway, I did eventually eat the bean and then did eventually break up with a girlfriend

who had given me the the bean seeds.

230

00:15:35,394 --> 00:15:36,797

and then life goes on.

231

00:15:39,490 --> 00:15:48,978

But yeah, since I moved in here to this house three or four years ago, my plants just

don't seem as happy, even though there are pretty big windows.

232

00:15:48,978 --> 00:15:52,280

And some of them are happy, but a lot of them are not so happy.

233

00:15:52,381 --> 00:15:58,558

And I remember I had a um jade plant, like a giant one.

234

00:15:58,558 --> 00:16:00,608

was about, I loved it.

235

00:16:00,608 --> 00:16:03,741

It was like, uh I don't know how tall, two feet tall?

236

00:16:03,741 --> 00:16:05,632

It was a tall jade plant.

237

00:16:05,912 --> 00:16:07,884

And uh I went on,

238

00:16:07,884 --> 00:16:17,316

like a vacation for a week and when I came back the fucking thing had just like cracked

apart and tipped over like like a tree like a fucking tree just kind of

239

00:16:18,860 --> 00:16:19,993

So that was depressing.

240

00:16:19,993 --> 00:16:28,180

So then I just took the pieces of it and replanted them and now I've got like three jade

plants that are not big, but you know, they'll get there.

241

00:16:29,902 --> 00:16:32,244

uh Is this interesting to anybody?

242

00:16:32,244 --> 00:16:33,324

I don't know.

243

00:16:33,805 --> 00:16:36,356

I felt inspired to talk on the microphone.

244

00:16:36,356 --> 00:16:38,428

So this is what is happening.

245

00:16:38,428 --> 00:16:48,234

And I feel like with me feeling kind of like uninspired by the podcast, maybe this is the

kind of weird mix them up I should just start to do.

246

00:16:48,234 --> 00:16:57,540

And whenever I feel inspired to just talk on the microphone, whenever I'm in a chatty

mood, I should just start recording something and then just put it out.

247

00:16:57,581 --> 00:16:59,712

Maybe that's the thing that people would like.

248

00:17:00,088 --> 00:17:01,030

I don't know.

249

00:17:03,980 --> 00:17:04,958

I don't know.

250

00:17:04,958 --> 00:17:05,931

Anyway.

251

00:17:08,120 --> 00:17:10,131

Yeah, I took mushrooms last night.

252

00:17:10,512 --> 00:17:18,117

I had this candy bar that a friend of mine gave me like two years ago, this mushroom candy

bar.

253

00:17:18,417 --> 00:17:23,080

And it's just been in my freezer for years, like two years now, of course.

254

00:17:23,221 --> 00:17:31,886

And I never really thought of an opportune time to do it because, know, for those of you

who've done like psychedelic mushrooms, you know, it's an investment of time and energy.

255

00:17:32,927 --> 00:17:36,150

But I thought, well, last night I didn't have any plans last night.

256

00:17:36,150 --> 00:17:37,030

So.

257

00:17:37,736 --> 00:17:43,148

And I'm in a pretty good head space these days, which is important when you do mushrooms.

258

00:17:43,949 --> 00:17:45,510

So I thought maybe this is the night.

259

00:17:45,510 --> 00:17:52,553

So I, you know, got all ready, you know, cleaned my house up, made it look all nice and

got very comfortable.

260

00:17:52,553 --> 00:17:56,955

And uh yeah, I didn't really entirely know how strong the candy bar was.

261

00:17:56,955 --> 00:18:03,017

I texted the guy I got it from and he said either five grams or three and a half grams.

262

00:18:04,218 --> 00:18:05,108

I would.

263

00:18:05,326 --> 00:18:08,686

after having done them say that there was probably five grams.

264

00:18:09,226 --> 00:18:17,926

Because, yeah, way outside of some realm of reality there going on.

265

00:18:18,726 --> 00:18:19,986

And it was good, it was great.

266

00:18:19,986 --> 00:18:29,306

I ate the whole candy bar and then I sat in the back porch for a while as the sun set and

then came down to my living room and put my headphones on and lied down here on the couch

267

00:18:29,306 --> 00:18:34,862

and put some light blinders on, you know, and just...

268

00:18:34,862 --> 00:18:37,282

let them take me wherever they took me.

269

00:18:37,482 --> 00:18:42,802

And you know, they take you to some strange places, these things, these mushrooms.

270

00:18:42,802 --> 00:18:48,142

And it always makes me wonder like, how, like, what, how is that even happening?

271

00:18:48,142 --> 00:18:55,722

You take these like, I mean, in this case, it was a candy bar with mushrooms in it, but

you know, when you just eat a couple of mushrooms and suddenly you're, you know, a couple

272

00:18:55,722 --> 00:19:00,242

hours later, you're on a spacecraft flying into like some other distant galaxy.

273

00:19:00,242 --> 00:19:02,022

Like, how does that, how does that happen?

274

00:19:02,022 --> 00:19:04,282

Like what's nature's plan there?

275

00:19:04,694 --> 00:19:06,875

I don't know, I don't know.

276

00:19:07,876 --> 00:19:16,682

And I also don't know that, mean, it a diff, like people will suggest that the place you

go when you're on these mushrooms is like a different reality plane or something to this

277

00:19:16,682 --> 00:19:18,379

effect, like a different dimension or something.

278

00:19:18,379 --> 00:19:19,924

There's all sorts of theories.

279

00:19:20,345 --> 00:19:22,266

I don't know that that's what it is.

280

00:19:22,266 --> 00:19:27,030

Like it's certainly, you know, it's a weird different perspective.

281

00:19:27,030 --> 00:19:28,571

Like it zooms you out, right?

282

00:19:28,571 --> 00:19:31,563

That's a thing that most of these psychedelics do for me.

283

00:19:31,563 --> 00:19:33,654

Like they give you a bigger picture.

284

00:19:33,654 --> 00:19:44,758

thing, like you're able to see the entire thing, like the universe and your place in it or

something to this effect, or you'll zoom in too much, right?

285

00:19:45,759 --> 00:19:47,800

Mostly for me, it's a zooming out.

286

00:19:47,940 --> 00:19:54,713

And that's the big takeaway for me is this zooming out this bigger picture idea that I'm

able to see that you don't really lose.

287

00:19:54,713 --> 00:20:03,476

don't think I think that's for me, the biggest takeaway from doing psychedelics is like

that I that this bigger picture, this zooming out that it

288

00:20:03,618 --> 00:20:16,501

that it does is a thing that I've, that I hang onto that, that, that's hard to forget

because once you see the big picture in a way, it's hard to unsee the big picture or

289

00:20:16,501 --> 00:20:17,652

something like that.

290

00:20:20,310 --> 00:20:24,476

And some people just aren't ready for that and never will be.

291

00:20:24,476 --> 00:20:26,468

Don't want to see that big picture, you know?

292

00:20:26,468 --> 00:20:30,273

Because it's a difficult picture to see in some ways.

293

00:20:30,273 --> 00:20:32,035

In some ways it's beautiful, you know?

294

00:20:32,035 --> 00:20:38,633

Because you really do start to realize that the thing connecting us all is like love, you

know?

295

00:20:41,398 --> 00:20:43,219

That sucks, right?

296

00:20:44,801 --> 00:21:02,316

Anyway, for most of this experience last night, I um was listening to music and I will

tell you ah music on these psychedelic mushrooms sounds amazing, like truly, truly

297

00:21:02,316 --> 00:21:03,697

mind-blowingly amazing.

298

00:21:03,697 --> 00:21:06,329

It sounds like maybe the best thing that you've ever heard in your life.

299

00:21:06,329 --> 00:21:09,812

And there were a few songs that I listened to where I was like,

300

00:21:10,242 --> 00:21:11,493

Like it was like an adventure.

301

00:21:11,493 --> 00:21:16,788

I was just lying on my couch, but it was like I was going through a whole fucking

adventure in my brain.

302

00:21:16,788 --> 00:21:22,972

Like these soundscapes were creating worlds in my brain that I felt like I was inside of.

303

00:21:23,593 --> 00:21:33,932

And yeah, there were a few songs where it was just like, holy shit, this person is able,

whoever wrote this is seeing into my brain and knows exactly what kind of music I want to

304

00:21:33,932 --> 00:21:35,042

hear right now.

305

00:21:35,703 --> 00:21:36,724

I don't know.

306

00:21:36,862 --> 00:21:37,403

I don't know.

307

00:21:37,403 --> 00:21:38,115

It feels very strange.

308

00:21:38,115 --> 00:21:39,266

There's a weird,

309

00:21:40,254 --> 00:21:42,915

the synchronicity feeling that you get when you're on these drugs.

310

00:21:42,915 --> 00:21:45,497

So maybe it's that, I don't know.

311

00:21:45,517 --> 00:21:47,878

Nevertheless, it was fun, it was good.

312

00:21:47,878 --> 00:21:50,360

It'd been a long time since I'd done them by myself.

313

00:21:50,360 --> 00:21:55,482

And a lot of people say you shouldn't do that, but I'm pretty safe.

314

00:21:55,482 --> 00:22:02,986

And I had a few people that I was head on standby to call if I needed to talk to somebody,

but I didn't.

315

00:22:02,986 --> 00:22:09,846

I just kind of chilled out on my couch for about four or five or six hours or something,

but it was...

316

00:22:09,846 --> 00:22:10,666

It was intense.

317

00:22:10,666 --> 00:22:11,947

That was a lot.

318

00:22:12,627 --> 00:22:13,988

But never like scary.

319

00:22:13,988 --> 00:22:14,908

So.

320

00:22:16,169 --> 00:22:23,292

And I think I recorded some audio at some point on this thing, but I don't know that I

really want to have to sort through that madness.

321

00:22:23,292 --> 00:22:24,512

But who knows?

322

00:22:24,792 --> 00:22:27,914

Trying to put a finger on reality here for a second.

323

00:22:27,914 --> 00:22:30,654

Uh huh.

324

00:22:31,715 --> 00:22:32,616

Yeah, I see it.

325

00:22:32,616 --> 00:22:34,116

I see it way off down there.

326

00:22:34,116 --> 00:22:36,537

I see you.

327

00:22:36,537 --> 00:22:37,768

Pescual reality.

328

00:22:37,768 --> 00:22:38,918

I see you down there.

329

00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:41,892

You're a rascal.

330

00:22:42,616 --> 00:22:44,099

You're a rascal, but I love you.

331

00:22:44,099 --> 00:22:44,641

I do.

332

00:22:44,641 --> 00:22:46,063

I have to love you.

333

00:22:46,747 --> 00:22:48,300

But you are a rascal.

334

00:22:51,136 --> 00:22:52,788

It's a pretty even match though, go.

335

00:22:52,788 --> 00:22:56,210

oh mix it up sometimes.

336

00:22:56,632 --> 00:22:57,866

I love you buddy.

337

00:22:57,866 --> 00:22:59,193

I love you too.

338

00:22:59,975 --> 00:23:01,356

Let's be friends forever.

339

00:23:01,356 --> 00:23:02,067

Great idea.

340

00:23:02,067 --> 00:23:03,138

What was our job again?

341

00:23:03,138 --> 00:23:04,158

Wasn't that?

342

00:23:05,020 --> 00:23:07,712

I totally actually forgot what the point of the story was.

343

00:23:09,282 --> 00:23:11,985

But they're all friends at the end, that's all that matters.

344

00:23:12,286 --> 00:23:15,830

So, to everybody involved.

345

00:23:17,233 --> 00:23:19,055

Because everybody's friends now.

346

00:23:19,616 --> 00:23:21,338

Everybody has a little group hug.

347

00:23:23,889 --> 00:23:24,571

am I getting this?

348

00:23:24,571 --> 00:23:25,913

Am I recording this?

349

00:23:26,578 --> 00:23:27,419

Aye.

350

00:23:30,798 --> 00:23:37,766

It's like you'll be feeling normal for second and then something will sweep you away out

of tangent and you're like, how did I get here?

351

00:23:39,662 --> 00:23:44,902

Like I have a feeling I'm in a ballroom with a chandelier on me, but I know that's not the

case.

352

00:23:45,642 --> 00:23:46,702

So yeah, I did that.

353

00:23:46,702 --> 00:23:53,902

And then that's, think why I slept until 11 today because, you know, it takes it out of

you.

354

00:23:53,902 --> 00:23:57,542

It takes a lot of your serotonin, drains it a little bit.

355

00:23:57,962 --> 00:23:59,334

Gotta get that back up.

356

00:24:00,812 --> 00:24:06,754

And that's kind of why also I think I haven't done a lot today because I've just kind of

been feeling like, uh you know, better.

357

00:24:06,754 --> 00:24:10,325

does clear, you know, you squeegee the third eye as Bill Hicks would say.

358

00:24:10,325 --> 00:24:14,976

ah And it does give you a refreshed feeling about life for a week or two.

359

00:24:14,976 --> 00:24:16,606

At least it does for me.

360

00:24:16,786 --> 00:24:28,419

Like a new found kind of perspective and appreciation in the sense that, you you kind of

see again, you get a renewed, you get a reminder that we are all one experience, like one

361

00:24:28,419 --> 00:24:30,760

consciousness really experiencing itself.

362

00:24:31,096 --> 00:24:37,599

Collectively again Bill Hicks, but that's all true So yeah, you try to hang on to that as

long as you can

363

00:24:40,162 --> 00:24:43,324

But yeah, I really have no idea what that's about.

364

00:24:44,064 --> 00:24:55,224

I it just, is it really like a, uh like I understand that these mushrooms make your brain

fire, different connections happen, you know, that wouldn't normally happen like this part

365

00:24:55,224 --> 00:24:57,786

of the brain fires with this part of the brain that doesn't know that well.

366

00:24:57,786 --> 00:25:06,173

And then this is why a lot of the weird brain stuff happens, but ah I'm no neuroscientist

in case you're wondering.

367

00:25:06,173 --> 00:25:08,986

Like I know a lot of you were thinking I'm a neuroscientist, but.

368

00:25:08,986 --> 00:25:09,518

uh

369

00:25:09,518 --> 00:25:12,198

just based on the way I'm talking about this, but no.

370

00:25:12,198 --> 00:25:19,638

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I am not, not at this point anyway, a neuroscientist.

371

00:25:20,018 --> 00:25:25,598

But I do know that it does affect the neuroplasticity in your brain, stuff like this, I

don't know.

372

00:25:27,670 --> 00:25:30,071

Yeah, I don't know what else there is to say.

373

00:25:30,071 --> 00:25:31,251

I never do.

374

00:25:31,752 --> 00:25:46,598

I feel like I should go for a walk now because it's getting to be five o'clock and I do

need to go to the grocery store and I also need to label um my friend March who's a

375

00:25:46,598 --> 00:25:49,179

Spanish teacher at a college.

376

00:25:49,259 --> 00:25:56,052

She said a good way to learn Spanish or to help you learn Spanish which is what I'm trying

to do right now.

377

00:25:56,062 --> 00:26:01,486

is to take Post-It notes and like label things in your house with the Spanish word for

them.

378

00:26:01,486 --> 00:26:03,788

And then maybe even like a sentence, right?

379

00:26:03,788 --> 00:26:08,196

Like, know, Cuchillo I think is knife, right?

380

00:26:08,196 --> 00:26:18,658

And then I could be like a sentence with the word Cuchillo or like mesa is like table or

whatever, you know, things like this, which I honestly think is a good idea.

381

00:26:18,878 --> 00:26:24,582

But it does remind me of when my father was uh

382

00:26:25,344 --> 00:26:31,238

starting to get em a little bit of the dementia four or five years ago.

383

00:26:31,238 --> 00:26:36,177

And then my mother would label, I came home one time from college or not college.

384

00:26:36,177 --> 00:26:37,401

What am I talking about?

385

00:26:37,581 --> 00:26:40,563

Came home from for a weekend or something from here.

386

00:26:41,063 --> 00:26:48,447

And there were labels on things like spoons, forks, things like that, because he was

forgetting the names for these things.

387

00:26:49,268 --> 00:26:51,129

But this is Spanish learning.

388

00:26:51,129 --> 00:26:52,410

But that's all I'm telling you.

389

00:26:52,410 --> 00:26:53,270

I'm just.

390

00:26:53,930 --> 00:27:00,545

free associating, guess, because that's what it made me think of then when she mentioned

it, and then now when I'm going to do it today.

391

00:27:02,176 --> 00:27:08,418

And maybe, you know, myself, I'll do the same thing for myself when my brain starts to go

in about 20 or 30 years.

392

00:27:08,418 --> 00:27:09,388

Who knows?

393

00:27:09,408 --> 00:27:10,968

You know, knock on wood.

394

00:27:12,199 --> 00:27:13,059

so I'm going to do that.

395

00:27:13,059 --> 00:27:14,730

She also gave me like a whole textbook.

396

00:27:14,730 --> 00:27:15,890

So I don't know.

397

00:27:15,890 --> 00:27:20,131

I've been doing a lot of Duolingo, but maybe I'll just lean into to Spanish learning.

398

00:27:20,751 --> 00:27:24,242

My brain gets in a place where I have like so many things that I'm trying to do.

399

00:27:24,242 --> 00:27:25,463

Like I'm trying to learn Spanish.

400

00:27:25,463 --> 00:27:26,563

I'm doing the podcast.

401

00:27:26,563 --> 00:27:28,203

I need to find a fucking job.

402

00:27:28,203 --> 00:27:29,273

Another one.

403

00:27:29,594 --> 00:27:30,636

I need to work.

404

00:27:30,636 --> 00:27:37,831

do some work on the job that I have, all these things, like it becomes a question of like

priority and time and all that.

405

00:27:37,831 --> 00:27:42,206

And then I just get overwhelmed, so I do nothing, right?

406

00:27:42,206 --> 00:27:43,914

Does anybody else relate to this?

407

00:27:44,415 --> 00:27:45,855

I'm sure you do.

408

00:27:46,196 --> 00:27:49,538

And if you're saying you don't, you're lying to yourself because you do.

409

00:27:51,286 --> 00:27:55,049

But focus has always been a difficult one for me.

410

00:27:55,049 --> 00:28:01,775

uh Focus and consistency uh and just discipline.

411

00:28:01,775 --> 00:28:04,276

Yeah, it's always been a difficult one.

412

00:28:04,877 --> 00:28:14,304

Because my brain just naturally kind of resists discipline, even though it's probably

what's best for my brain, which is the ironic part of it.

413

00:28:15,346 --> 00:28:18,287

And there's periods when I actually have discipline.

414

00:28:18,628 --> 00:28:21,290

Like my brain is a little more relaxed, but like,

415

00:28:22,008 --> 00:28:27,623

There's another side of my brain that's just like, fuck this, this discipline's bullshit,

fucking stay home from work tomorrow.

416

00:28:27,623 --> 00:28:29,565

Whatever, why did I sound Canadian then?

417

00:28:29,565 --> 00:28:38,212

Anyway, maybe it's because I watched the John Candy biopic or biography or whatever it is,

documentary about John Candy yesterday.

418

00:28:38,633 --> 00:28:42,076

After I was, as I was coming down from the mushrooms, that's what I watched.

419

00:28:42,076 --> 00:28:47,239

I don't know why, but it was heartwarming and quite funny.

420

00:28:48,081 --> 00:28:49,592

He seemed like a very nice guy.

421

00:28:49,592 --> 00:28:57,744

Although it did seem like they whitewashed over a lot of like, there was a lot of like,

maybe like casual mentions that maybe he wasn't the best and more as a tentative father.

422

00:28:57,744 --> 00:28:59,815

But then it was kind of like, we'll move on to something else.

423

00:28:59,815 --> 00:29:01,445

Here's how wonderful he was.

424

00:29:01,685 --> 00:29:07,487

And I know that there were drugs involved in his life, but they didn't really talk about

that much at all.

425

00:29:07,487 --> 00:29:12,628

So anyway, everybody's complicated, including John Candy.

426

00:29:12,908 --> 00:29:14,649

Yeah, I think that's all for now.

427

00:29:15,129 --> 00:29:16,029

Will I release this?

428

00:29:16,029 --> 00:29:16,569

I don't know.

429

00:29:16,569 --> 00:29:17,970

If I do, you'll be hearing it.

430

00:29:17,970 --> 00:29:19,330

So you know that I will release it.

431

00:29:19,330 --> 00:29:20,853

or that I did release it.

432

00:29:20,855 --> 00:29:24,043

If you don't, then I didn't release it.

433

00:29:24,447 --> 00:29:25,940

Wow, that's weird.

434

00:29:28,066 --> 00:29:29,187

Thank you for listening to this.

435

00:29:29,187 --> 00:29:29,967

I appreciate you.

436

00:29:29,967 --> 00:29:40,363

If you did enjoy it, if you enjoyed this kind of random, um you know, mind dump kind of

episode, please do email me at 1fjeffpod at gmail.com, because I'd love to hear some

437

00:29:40,363 --> 00:29:40,823

feedback.

438

00:29:40,823 --> 00:29:42,334

I don't really get a lot very often.

439

00:29:42,334 --> 00:29:48,798

Like a few people will tell me in person how much they like it, but then I just don't get

a lot of emails.

440

00:29:48,798 --> 00:29:55,742

And I know I'm still trying to build up a listener base, but like, you know, if you have

five seconds, just shoot me a quick email.

441

00:29:56,544 --> 00:30:01,813

say, hey, I love the show or write a review on their podcast platform of choice.

442

00:30:03,636 --> 00:30:06,328

But yeah, thank you at the very least for listening.

443

00:30:06,328 --> 00:30:07,528

I do appreciate that.

444

00:30:07,528 --> 00:30:14,454

And uh yeah, if you want to support the show, can do that on Patreon at patreon.com slash

onefjef.

445

00:30:14,495 --> 00:30:19,789

I often do release random episodes like this, or I wouldn't say often at this point.

446

00:30:19,789 --> 00:30:21,480

I think I've done it like three times.

447

00:30:21,861 --> 00:30:25,674

Release episodes like this rambling thing on there for just Patreon people.

448

00:30:25,674 --> 00:30:32,779

But I think I'll put this out for everybody because I am wondering how it will land.

449

00:30:33,262 --> 00:30:34,542

Or maybe it won't land at all.

450

00:30:34,542 --> 00:30:35,562

I don't know.

451

00:30:36,062 --> 00:30:38,282

I need to get like Donald Trump on the podcast.

452

00:30:38,282 --> 00:30:39,762

That's how I need to get the thing to blow up.

453

00:30:39,762 --> 00:30:40,822

I wonder how I get in touch with him.

454

00:30:40,822 --> 00:30:47,302

If anybody out there knows like Donald Trump's media person or whatever can maybe get him

on the podcast, let me know.

455

00:30:47,302 --> 00:30:48,122

Or Obama.

456

00:30:48,122 --> 00:30:49,962

I'll take Barack Obama too.

457

00:30:49,962 --> 00:30:51,742

Joe Biden, no, I don't really care.

458

00:30:51,742 --> 00:30:52,802

I don't really want that.

459

00:30:52,802 --> 00:30:53,982

I don't really want him on the show.

460

00:30:53,982 --> 00:30:56,702

That would be sad.

461

00:30:57,202 --> 00:30:59,382

Anybody else said want on the show?

462

00:31:01,090 --> 00:31:06,374

Yeah, mean plenty of people, but Barack Obama.

463

00:31:07,216 --> 00:31:10,958

Mark Maron, that would be a fun guest to have on the show.

464

00:31:11,459 --> 00:31:14,502

Anyway, I could go on about guests that I'd love to have.

465

00:31:14,502 --> 00:31:18,185

Jesus, if Jesus, if you're listening, would love to have Jesus on.

466

00:31:18,185 --> 00:31:28,534

um The guy at the bar in Salida told me that he's still here because he did rise from the

dead, so he's still here.

467

00:31:28,534 --> 00:31:33,837

So Jesus, if you're listening to this podcast, which I hope you are, uh I'd love to have

you on.

468

00:31:33,837 --> 00:31:42,682

So, you know, give me a call or do whatever you do um just to communicate with me and tell

me that, you know, we'll make it work.

469

00:31:42,922 --> 00:31:44,843

I can work around your schedule, Jesus.

470

00:31:44,843 --> 00:31:51,847

know you're probably busy, but I don't know what you do, but I know you're probably very

busy.

471

00:31:51,847 --> 00:31:55,769

But if you want to come on the show, that would be killer.

472

00:31:56,830 --> 00:31:57,230

Yeah.

473

00:31:57,230 --> 00:31:59,311

You can even smoke some weed if you want.

474

00:31:59,711 --> 00:32:02,852

I mean, I assume you smoke weed, right?

475

00:32:03,393 --> 00:32:05,033

You're like the first hippie.

476

00:32:06,134 --> 00:32:06,784

Or Buddha.

477

00:32:06,784 --> 00:32:08,175

I mean, I think he's dead though, right?

478

00:32:08,175 --> 00:32:11,056

Or is he, I don't know, how does Buddha work?

479

00:32:11,056 --> 00:32:17,298

Is Buddha like a man that died or is Buddha like a continuing idea of a man that is cool?

480

00:32:17,298 --> 00:32:18,379

I don't know.

481

00:32:18,879 --> 00:32:26,632

As I said, I'm uh not a Buddhist scholar, so I can't speak with any expertise on that.

482

00:32:28,736 --> 00:32:33,449

One of those like, you know, eight armed guys that they have in India, that'd be

interesting.

483

00:32:33,850 --> 00:32:35,110

I'll have one of those on.

484

00:32:35,110 --> 00:32:36,942

Like which hand will they hold the mic with?

485

00:32:36,942 --> 00:32:38,532

That's the question I have.

486

00:32:39,153 --> 00:32:40,995

I mean, they don't actually have to hold the mic though.

487

00:32:40,995 --> 00:32:44,516

But which hand, when I give them a drink, which hand do they use for the drink?

488

00:32:44,717 --> 00:32:45,937

How do you pick?

489

00:32:46,438 --> 00:32:46,798

Right?

490

00:32:46,798 --> 00:32:48,199

Like an octopus.

491

00:32:49,220 --> 00:32:54,784

Although each of the octopus arms have different brains in them, so they all act

independently apparently.

492

00:32:54,844 --> 00:32:58,168

Maybe I'm misunderstanding that, but I think that's how that works.

493

00:32:58,168 --> 00:33:01,740

But I don't think like the Vishnu gods or whatever with all those arms.

494

00:33:02,641 --> 00:33:04,882

I don't think those arms act independently.

495

00:33:05,858 --> 00:33:10,578

I mean, I haven't read the books that they're in.

496

00:33:10,607 --> 00:33:11,928

Is it the Bhagavad Gita?

497

00:33:11,928 --> 00:33:15,550

Is that where the like multi-armed deities are in?

498

00:33:15,590 --> 00:33:20,134

Am I completely mixing up like different spiritual practices?

499

00:33:20,134 --> 00:33:21,615

If so, I apologize.

500

00:33:21,615 --> 00:33:27,018

I don't mean to be sacrilegious or anything like that.

501

00:33:27,586 --> 00:33:30,307

I'm just trying to get some good podcast guests, if dig.

502

00:33:30,348 --> 00:33:40,113

So if anybody's got contacts with any of these uh killer gods, not killer, like killing,

but like killer is an awesome.

503

00:33:40,273 --> 00:33:42,114

Yeah, shoot them my way.

504

00:33:42,114 --> 00:33:43,714

Or just shoot me an email or whatever.

505

00:33:43,714 --> 00:33:46,897

I'd love to have some sort of a deity on.

506

00:33:48,058 --> 00:33:53,701

That aside, the episode this week is gonna be Nicholas Weber, Nick Weber, as I know him

by.

507

00:33:53,701 --> 00:33:56,282

Very dear old friend of mine who has been on

508

00:33:57,012 --> 00:34:00,304

some television, been on some theater.

509

00:34:00,725 --> 00:34:05,089

He's a very interesting guy, very well read, very interesting human being.

510

00:34:05,089 --> 00:34:09,813

uh so look forward to that episode of coming out this week, hopefully before Friday.

511

00:34:10,134 --> 00:34:12,275

And again, thank you all for listening.

512

00:34:13,136 --> 00:34:14,357

Thank you all for being here.

513

00:34:14,357 --> 00:34:15,878

uh

514

00:34:17,388 --> 00:34:18,955

Yeah, take care of yourselves.

515

00:34:18,955 --> 00:34:19,949

Put your phone down.

516

00:34:19,949 --> 00:34:21,835

Very good, Jeffrey.
