Transcript
- 0:01Okay guys, so I thought I'd do like a sit-down conversation
- 0:04because like there's been a lot going on and I haven't really
- 0:07spoke about it. Like I never spoke about it.
- 0:09So I decided that I would maybe speak about right now because
- 0:12there's a lot going on on well, how's it going on and and and
- 0:16the only way I can explain what the feeling feels like as if
- 0:19somebody's told you to stop spinning imagine your stimming
- 0:23imagine you're doing something you're stimming or you're like
- 0:27self-soothing you're doing something right?
- 0:28And then somebody says you stop them and kind of thing ever
- 0:30again. You know, it's Tim anymore.
- 0:31Stop it right now and that's it and they stop they hold your
- 0:33hands down or whatever and they stop your ability to stem that
- 0:38is kind of like the experience that I am currently experiencing
- 0:40right now. So I was working with a major
- 0:46television production company for a major national TV show
- 0:50here in the United Kingdom that is currently about two are
- 0:55tomorrow and it's either When you guys watching this, but
- 1:00basically it's happening tomorrow.
- 1:03And yeah, I was I was contacted by the by the company and then
- 1:06we went through all the motions and then I was cast for the show
- 1:11and I was all the way ready bags packed to do the show did
- 1:16everything filmed everything from the adverts for the channel
- 1:18everything and then all of a sudden they say, oh no, the
- 1:20channel doesn't want you anymore the kind of just cut me off
- 1:24instantly. Now, I believe that they did
- 1:27this because they didn't want someone with us video.
- 1:29Syndrome on the show because you got remember like TV shows and
- 1:34casting companies are two different people.
- 1:35So the Caster's go out and find the people and they feel like
- 1:38they believe in those people most people going to do the
- 1:39right job. And then the TV channel the
- 1:41Channel network of the people who then actually decide if
- 1:44that's what they want to represent their channel on
- 1:46television. So I'm legally bound I can't
- 1:49tell you what the show was what the channel was but it's major
- 1:53is product. It's huge its major, but that
- 1:57being said, this is the experience I had they basically
- 2:00Fill me up said oh, yeah, you're not going on the show anymore.
- 2:01Even though they said to me you're definitely going on the
- 2:03show pack your bags get everything ready.
- 2:06And I did that, you know get everything ready for a pet
- 2:08everything for the show and then all of a sudden they say, hey,
- 2:11you're not in the show. So how does that make me feel
- 2:14man? That made me feel like I was
- 2:16like super just not appreciative that I was undervalued and then
- 2:22I realized that there was like discriminatory.
- 2:24Like they don't want to see desperate is on television.
- 2:27They don't autism represented in a certain way on.
- 2:29Television and and that kind of blows man.
- 2:34It just it's horrible. It's a horrible feeling.
- 2:36I just been feeling like absolute rubbish for like an
- 2:39entire week. So it was almost a week since I
- 2:42found out like that. I'm not doing the show and the
- 2:45show airs like tomorrow today. And yeah, I just it just just
- 2:52freaks me out man freaks me out and I felt the lowest I've ever
- 2:55felt in my life. I got to be honest with you
- 2:57guys. I like I'm really like a
- 2:59happy-go-lucky person. I'm a suit.
- 3:00I'm super pumped all the time. I'm always like Yeah, I'm gonna
- 3:04nail this is gonna be awesome and I'm really positive all the
- 3:08time usually but with this specific one, I just feel let
- 3:16down. I feel like I let myself down
- 3:17right? I feel like I was doing all this
- 3:19stuff and then I let myself down because like I love myself
- 3:22three-part process and I believe that it was going to happen and
- 3:24everyone told me that was gonna happen and it didn't and it was
- 3:27difficult. It's difficult to deal with how
- 3:29do I comprehend that, you know my routine would that I thought
- 3:32I was I was going to do Like my how I planned my plan.
- 3:37Drift away just like somebody saying don't ever see him ever
- 3:40again. It's like it's crazy man.
- 3:44It's created literally is crazy. It's like the crazy thing I've
- 3:46ever experienced in my life. I think like it's probably the
- 3:50most crazy thing I've ever experienced in my life.
- 3:53Like I kind of explained, you know, the huge huge huge Channel
- 3:57huge program just like but the obvious said I made some really
- 4:00good friends with the production company in the casting directors
- 4:04and things like that and they're all really cool and they love me
- 4:06and they want to work them in some capacity.
- 4:07So it's not all bad I guess so as I continue to buy new clothes
- 4:12for myself. I am asking myself this you
