  Speaker 1: peaceful and overrun with creepy bugs, which you can kind
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: of hear in the background. But as you listen to that,
• 2:11

  Speaker 1: been enjoying it for the last day and a half.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: You're right. I've lived here all my life. That is
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: called the Pointy Pyramid Building.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: It's got a nice arts and crafts shower to it.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: The top.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: I think that's 100%. It's made out of popsicle sticks.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Ah, it did kind of look like that. I wondered.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: And now we've been hanging out here so long it's
• 2:43

• 2:46
  Speaker 1: in the Atlanta skyline here.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it's been really cool hanging out in general,
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: but now we're getting a nice like, you know, Hanging
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: out at the park vibe and looking out at the
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: city skyline. I've taken a few pictures, so if you

• 3:14
  Speaker 1: to keep on rolling because we've got many more stories,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: lots more geeky things to get to. So we'll steer
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: away for just a moment here. We'll take a quick
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: break and come back knee deep back into our geeky conversations.
• 3:31

• 3:34
  Speaker 1: little longer past our geeky ramblings, special guest star. That

  Speaker 10: It's showtime. It's showtime.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: They give... There's usually every generation has like the token
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: weirdo that they let them make the weirdo movies. There's
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: room for one. There's enough room for one David Lynch
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: out there. Or there's like this guy, this Gaspar Noé character.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: You know, we'll let him... Be the representative of the
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: incomprehensible weirdo.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the artsy crowd. The art house needs to fill
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: some seats, too.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: There's enough of an audience for us to have one
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: or two of those guys.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: We want to at least have a little prestige to
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: our studio when we're making these explosion movies over here.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Right, right, right.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: We need to also have this. We'll be like, well,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: we also made this.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: We backed this.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: Right, right. Lynch, though, I mean, he had like... I mean...
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: Until he got that Showtime deal to bring back Twin
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: Peaks' most popular thing.
• 7:13
  Speaker 8: You know.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: You know, I mean, he was shooting out, he was
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: going out shooting, like, web, he was like a YouTuber
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: I mean he was like doing shooting and I think he'd.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Be happy like that you know his like Barbie doll
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: head commercials and like you just let him like run
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: with an idea and he's gonna do it David Lynch
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: style and like it's gonna be weird and if he
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: gets to do what he wants he'll be happy like
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think he even cares where it ends up
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: if it's on YouTube if people see it good enough
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: like I think he'll be fine with that.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: It's the making yeah it was I wanted to make
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: it I needed to make it I made it whatever
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: you know I don't think he sits and deconstructs his
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: work like that. It's like I've got I had this
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: image and, you know, you listen to interviews with him.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: He's like all into this transcendental meditation.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't even think he's I mean, I
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: think he's like in this like like meditative fugue state
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: when he's putting this together. And, uh, you know, it's like, uh,
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: you know, he doesn't deconstruct it. He goes like, uh, my,
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: my subconscious knows how this all connects in a way.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: And so, you know, you know, um, I don't think he's,
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: he's worried about it.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Probably not. Also, David Lynch doesn't seem to worry about
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: a lot of things that normal people would worry about. Like,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: He is of his own mind and his own realm,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: kind of. A different plane of existence than we're on.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: So, like, yeah.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I don't think he worries about a lot of stuff
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: that normal people worry about.
• 8:39
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: And now he's just like this guy. He's like a...
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: You know, he's probably in his 70s, too, and he's
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: just sitting there, like, staring at a painting of, like,
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: you know, feces dripping down on some face, and he's
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: just sitting there. He stares at it, and he smokes
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: his cigarettes, and he's staring at it, and then occasionally
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: he'll pick up something, he'll slap something on it, you know,
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: and now he's got, like, a whole documentary crew of
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: French filmmakers filming him.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: He's obviously an artist. Look at him. Look at that.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Look at that.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: And now he's got, like, his second family, so now
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: he's got, like, a six-year-old running around, you know, and stuff.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's just, like, It's just like, holy cow. Anyway,
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: but these guys, you know, you give them, you know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: endless budget and they make Dune and then you go like, oh, no.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: But even then, he didn't get to make what he
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: wanted to make. It's nothing but if you let him
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: make the movie he wanted to make and gave him
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: enough money to back it, it would have been amazing.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: It still might not have been what people wanted. It
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: certainly wouldn't have been the representation of the book that
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the fans wanted. But it would have been amazing to
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: see what he envisioned and to have it actually come
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: together as the way that you would let... Same thing, like,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: can you imagine what Return of the Jedi would have
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: turned out like had you just given him free reign?
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Like, being like, George, you just go sit over there.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: You've given him your plot ideas.
• 9:59
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Now let's... him direct this movie what a mess that
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: would have been but i would like in a parallel
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: universe i want to see it right i don't know
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: that i want it in the middle of my normal
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: star wars trilogy yeah.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: You think brian johnson got some shit yeah.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Really let david lynch go to town right.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Right I don't know, the second they pulled out Luke's
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: heart plug, you know, it's a little different. Yeah, I
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: don't know. I don't know, guys. You know, we're trying
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: to sell cheeseburgers here. Yeah, this is not going to
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: do it. We got a McDonald's Happy Meal tie-in.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: This is not going to make the kids happy.
• 10:32
  Speaker 11: No, no.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: I don't know, man.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: But.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Well, I think.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: In all this craziness, we should probably address what has
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: brought us here this weekend.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Let's do that.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: So I've heard about this convention for many, many years.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: You're a little more schooled in it in the old days.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: But it was a different experience today when you got there.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: I've, I've been here for like a day and a
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: half and then we finally met up and it's, it's
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: a lot to deal with. Would you say?
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: It is grown exponentially. Like I was standing there yesterday
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: with one of the guys that was there at the
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: press thing that we'll get to in a little bit.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: And he was going on about like, he'd been covering
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: it for like 17 years and he's like that first
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: year and he rattled off like this, you know, 17,000
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: people or 30,000 people. And then like how every year
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: it got bigger and bigger and it's 75,000 people. And like,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: it's just a ridiculous amount of people crammed into one
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: space at one time. And yet like, it's amazing how
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: like the, the geek love in these buildings, like that,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: that is the thing I'm sitting there today and I'm
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: just watching it. And like, I probably got a dopey
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: grin on my face because I'm watching like an inlet.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting next to the escalator.
• 11:59
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: And there's just a never ending stream. Yeah. Of people
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: in goofy costumes and wearing dorky t-shirts like myself.
• 12:07
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: And like every, I mean, it's just, I'm so in
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: my element, even when we're with a bunch of people that,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: cause we, we, we kind of touched on that as
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: we were talking to her, like all these different avenues
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: and everybody's into so many different things.
• 12:20
  Speaker 13: Right.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, I may not know what your weird, uh,
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: anime thing is i may not know what your weird
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: video game tie-in is but i'm like we're all.
• 12:28
  Speaker 14: Still of the same ilk like we're the same geek
• 12:32
  Speaker 14: club that like there's just a passion about being into
• 12:37
  Speaker 14: these pop culture things.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: So much so that it is crazy the amount of people.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: And again, surprisingly, everybody seemed to get along. It's just
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: for that many people crammed in one place and not
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: kill each other. It's funny how much people were just...
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: yeah hanging out and like i saw the people next
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: to me like they never met each other and they
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: were just like they made some comment about the costume
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: and then like 10 minute like conversation came up and
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: they were just just geeks hanging out and it was
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: like it was really kind of impressive to see because
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: i'm so used to people just being angry and like
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: nobody wants to again like there is the other side
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: as we said sure to take This many socially awkward
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: people that don't know how to interact with people and
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: cram them in a tight space.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: It also could go horribly wrong. Sure. But there are
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: so many moments when I'm just impressed by how much
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: like geek love there is that like we all kind
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: of get that we're into stuff, even if it's different things,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: into stuff the same amount and with the same, you know, passion.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: And we just to all show up and be part
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: of that is pretty impressive. And there was... A lot
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: of people there.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: No, there is definitely this feeling of, you know, love
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: amongst everybody. You can just start up these weird conversations,
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: and then, you know, if you speak the same geek language,
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: it will go off, and you're like, oh, man. You know,
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: it's almost like, well, for me, growing up, uh, as,
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: you know, back when being a geek was like, you know,
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: basically like being a leper, you know, uh, yeah, yeah,
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: you know, I mean, this was not the, uh, it
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: was not, it's not the cool kids club.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: This was not, this was.
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: Not, you were not the, uh, uh beloved yeah you
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: are not you or you did not have other people
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: sharing your or not.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Even not even the norm like that's the thing now
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: it's not even like it makes you cool to be
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: into this stuff it's just the norm like everybody is
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: into these pop culture things and to some extent it
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: seems like kids have gotten a little more tolerant again
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: i'm kind of basing it on just like you know
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: the weird lives that my nieces and nephews are going
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: through so i'm trying to kind of pin that down
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: and you're kind of seeing it with your kids. So
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: you've got a firsthand window into this little world that
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: they're dealing with. But it seems like people are at
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: least growing up. There's at least a surface level of
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: people be more accepting towards people being into whatever they're into,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: you know, where we definitely didn't have that.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Definitely not. Definitely not. So you went to a convention
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: because that was the one place you could find other
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: people that, that would like, you know what, you know,
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: you didn't have to, it was like a safe place.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: It was a safe space. You know, back before there
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: were safe spaces, that was your safe space. And you're
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: going like, okay, I can relax. I can, I can,
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: I can.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I'm in my element.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: Right, right, right. I can have a conversation about escape
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: from New York and it not like, you know, clear
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: the room, you know. What are you talking about? Right, right, right, right.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: You know, you could, you could geek out.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Snakes are stupid.
• 15:42
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: What are you, a reptile kid?
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Right, right. It's like, you could geek out. And, and
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: it was like, ah, I can't get all this garbage.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: crap in my head out and I can talk to
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: somebody else that also has this crap in their head
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: you know and we gotta like bond over that and
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: it's like so beautiful and everything la la la la
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: la la you know and uh peace and love and
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: stuff like that you know and you know But, you know, now,
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: you know, you know, I don't know. I guess people
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: now just walk around. They talk about dragons all day. And,
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: you know, I mean, you know, Game of Thrones is
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: a national phenomenon. And, you know, I mean, I don't
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: even watch Game of Thrones.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: I don't. Well, here's the thing. I don't. But my
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: dad does.
• 16:24
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: My dad's not into anything. Yeah. Like anything and certainly
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: not anything that's the kind of weird fantasy world or
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: like sci-fi. He doesn't care about that kind of stuff.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: But yet, like. he knows all about Iron Man, you know,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: he like that stuff is crossed over so much that like,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: even like people that aren't into that kind of stuff
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: are kind of into it because it's so immersed in
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: the pop culture now.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Yep. It's just a weird world. Like it's become so
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: mainstream and acceptable because I guess because it became financially bankable,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: you know, it's like, when when zombies make a ton
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: of money when superheroes make a ton of money like
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: it changes the game.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: And you go like well what as was in middle
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: school was everybody just pretending to hate this shit.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: I don't think so i didn't get that vibe i
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: mean it was pretty genuine.
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: I mean sports yeah yeah yeah yeah i mean it
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: was just like that was it and you know i
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: mean it was just like i was like well now
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: these people that you know used to make fun of
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: me in high school are now like like i'm toe-to-toe
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: with them. And so I was like, no, you did
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: not pay your dues in high school to be here.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: See, this is just the ranting old man. Oh, I know.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: That we knew was coming. We've discussed it.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: I mean, you had a well, you were beloved and,
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: you know, had an active social life throughout your formative years,
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: you know?
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, I acted out interactions with my Star Wars figures
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and this is my weekend. You know, this is what
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I did.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. This was just, you know, I
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: guess it was just like, I don't know. When you
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: have a certain base level of social anxiety and neurosis,
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: you know, human interaction can be kind of painful to
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: get through. It is. And so you retreat into a
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: fantasy world and you retreat into these like made up
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: stories because what we were saying, maybe like the these
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: stories that you're into, you're so much more into them
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: because that's what you, that's your interaction. That's how you
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: relate emotionally to the world. And because you don't have
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: interpersonal relationships to interact, it's like, you know, it was
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: like going, you know, it's like when you're in this
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: vacuum and you're just, you know, you have a rich
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: inner life, you know, and you have this rich, imagine
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: it's like when, you know, if like, cause you're, yeah,
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: I guess it's like, if you had like If you had, like,
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: a girlfriend and, like, you know, fulfilling interpersonal relationships.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: You probably.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you would allow, there wouldn't be
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: all that space to get that deep into shit.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, would you be that immersed in whatever Captain Kirk
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: was doing?
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: Right, right.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: Or would you just be like, hey, my girlfriend's coming
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: over tonight. Yeah, right, right.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: I've got to put that aside.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Who cares? I'm turning off the TV. Like, so, yeah,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, it might have, but maybe not because that's
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: the thing. I look at this next wave and even
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: the next couple of waves because now we're looking at
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: kids that are like, in their 20s and grew up
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: kind of in a different version of that plus the
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: kids coming up that are even younger than that and
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: the thing is they have almost found a balance because
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: they are some of them are still socially awkward obviously
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: I saw many of them today but at the same
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: time I'm like there are some that are pretty well
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: adjusted but but have also been so like attached to
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: this that the geek runs so deep.
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: And like, I was in line sitting there waiting to
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: go to a Q and a yesterday. And like, there's
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: a girl in front of us that just started talking and,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: and like, just like seemed super normal and probably is
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: like somebody that you work next to, you know, that you're,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: you're kind of like, if you don't get into those conversations,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: you'd never know.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: But, After, like, a few minutes, like, she reaches into
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: her bag and pulls out this book. And it is
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: just a big, giant book of nothing but photos of
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: her with everybody. Like, she is so immersed in, like,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: the convention scene. Yeah. And, like, super supernatural. Like, she
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: was so deep into supernatural.
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: She was into, like, the Harry Potter stuff. Like, she
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: just went into all these geek avenues. But I'm like,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: she wasn't weird and socially awkward.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: She was a pretty well-adjusted girl and was just as
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: much of a fan as the ones that are super
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: geeks about it, you know? So it's like, I think
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: it's gotten so immersed in the culture now that there
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: are people coming up that are, normal in quotes but
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: at the same time are equally as committed and as
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: big of fans but they know how to again they
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: almost have the knack to be able to control themselves
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: and like to not unleash it on people that don't
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: care but after you talk for a few minutes and
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: they realize oh you're into stuff too then they like
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: kind of bust out this geek knowledge and you're like
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: oh no you're not just here for the hell of
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: it like you most of your life has been like
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: watching these movies watching these TV shows like you're legitimately
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: into this stuff, and it's not a game.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: It's not an act, it's not a poser.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really what you are into, and I feel
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: like that's something that's different. Like, there was no in-between
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: normal level growing up, you know? It was just like,
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: you were a geek, or you were, like, not interested
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: in that at all.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: Like, there was just.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: star wars was probably the most casual you got like
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: some normal kids would be wearing a star wars shirt
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: or something like they would kind of you know oh
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: yeah i got some of the toys when i was
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: a kid but like that was the most crossover there
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: probably ever was right and other than that like anything
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: else like if you're a kid that's into jules verne
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: you know what you're the only one in your class
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: into it and like you're gonna geek out and you're
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: gonna talk about that stuff and nobody's gonna talk to
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: you and you're a dork Whereas now I feel like
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: there's probably a literary club happening at a school somewhere
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: and you're one of 10 kids that shows up to
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: that club. And like, you're like, there's a, there's just
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: so much more acceptance of that.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: And it doesn't seem so freakish now. It really is
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: like you, because it's so normal for everybody to be
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: immersed in pop culture because it's taken over our society
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: that like, I feel like these kids are, are, Kind
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: of getting a more, you know, a shot at a
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: real life, you know, that we maybe didn't have.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: So I kind of like love that that's going on. Like,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I'm bitter. I'm still an angry old man. Don't worry.
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: Sure.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: But I'm trying to be hopeful, bitter old man, because
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: I'm like, there's a chance for kids coming up to
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: actually like not have that and to be like. happy
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: to be a geek and to find friends that are
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: also geeks. Yeah, it's beautiful. Yeah, I kind of have hope,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: you know, as I look at all these dorky kids
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: running around in costume. I'm just like, these are a
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: lot of people. This can't be the fringe anymore. Look
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: at the numbers. Like, this is normal life for all
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: of these people. And, like, they're taking over. Like, they
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: are the whole next wave of society. They're the person...
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: like approving your loan at the bank.
• 23:08
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: You know, it's like, they're the next wave of people
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: running the society and they are watching game of Thrones
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: every night. And they're wearing a, an Avengers outfit when
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: they go to comic-con. So it's like, you know, it's like,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: this is what people do. And yeah, it's changed so much.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: And it's, I don't know. I guess I'm processing it.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: There's an upside to it, but yeah.
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: No, it's beautiful, and it's great, and finally I got
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: what I wanted. Everybody likes what I like now, so wonderful.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: And yet, geeks everywhere will be bitter.
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: And angry and shake their fist on the internet. I
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: don't know how to be happy, obviously. I'm just like Mr. Naysayer.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: But no, I see it, and I go like, thank God,
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: you know. whatever my kids are into, they're not going
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: to be like, you know, ostracized for or whatever. It's
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: a beautiful thing and they're going to, you know, it's
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: just like, but you know, you know, I'm just used
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: to being hiding in the crawl space, you know.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: You can still do that.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, sure.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: They'll just know where to find you. They'll come knock
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: on the wall and be like, Dad, we're going out
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: for a while.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: It's fine, it's fine. It's kind of like, I mean,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: it's just like music, insufferable music fans are going like, yeah,
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: you know, you know, I liked them before they were popular,
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: you know, like whatever, you know, that's fine. It was
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: kind of like, oh, It was like, you like Star Wars? Well,
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: now there's going to be a Star Wars movie every
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: day for the rest of your life.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Now there's a TV show on its own network designed
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: around Star Wars. Aren't you happy?
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: Aren't you happy there's just going to be Star Wars everywhere?
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: It just gives me more to complain about. That's just
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: what fans do.
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Right, right. It's going like, well, yeah, if you ask
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: my 12-year-old self, you know, what would be the ideal situation?
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: It's probably Dragon Con. And it's probably with the numbers
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: and the amount of product going out now with like, oh,
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: a Star Wars TV show that isn't like an Ewok cartoon,
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: you know? I mean, you know, how lucky, what a
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: wonderful world. Oh, you like George Romero zombie movies? There's
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: going to be 500 hours of a George Romero zombie
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: movie that never ends. A TV show that's going.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: To go for years and years and years. It's kind
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: of living in that Romero world, but it's its own
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: spin on it. It probably has a weird tie to Atlanta. Anyway,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: we're going.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, sure. Yeah, yeah. But, you know. And then like, oh,
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: you like that little Evil Dead movie? Well, what if
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: there's like a weekly TV show of Evil Dead every day?
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: Until we pull the funding and it gets cancelled But.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: You know Now we can reboot it And now we
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: can just keep going Now you can have it forever
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Forever You can have it forever Why aren't you happy?
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: Are you talking to yourself now? Why can't I be happy?
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: Why can't I be happy that everything I like now
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: Is now everywhere And there's more than I could ever
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: possibly consume In every direction And I go like I
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: go like, I don't know. I guess it's just kind
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: of like you're just drowning in it.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: I think that's a generational thing too. Again, in our
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: ramblings earlier today, I touched on that. We just came
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: from such a focused old school generation that like, We
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: sat down in front of the TV and we watched
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: our Star Trek or we watched whatever, you know, our dumb.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: I watched my Planet of the Apes TV show.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: Right, right, right.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: And like I that was what was on and that's
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: what I paid attention to. Like that was the only thing.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Kids that have been immersed in Internet and the TV
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: the way it is and streaming the way they like,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: they already are just busy. born to multitask and they're
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: born to like the second screen experience is like a
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: normal thing.
• 26:50
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: Now there's two or three. We'll have like, uh, the, the,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: the YouTube plan and a TV going in the background
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: and the radio's on and like, they're, they're just so
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: immersed in so many different types of media and they
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: pick up on it. Again, kids are smart, smarter than
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: we were. So like, they're just, they pick up on
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: that stuff so fast and they like, have adjusted to
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: that world because they didn't know anything any different. So
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: we're just kind of straddling the generations looking at it
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: going like, I don't understand. There's too many things. I
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: can't do it. Whereas I don't think, I don't hear
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: that coming from them. They're not saying, they're on the
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: other end. I'm listening to my nephew go, there's just
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: not anything else to watch on Netflix. I'm like, wait,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: how many series have you gone through? Like he's watched
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: like weird old 90s sitcoms. And I'm just like, really?
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: You're watching this now? But he's marathoned through them and
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: he's done with them already and he wants something else.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: And like that's something that like we didn't have to
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: worry about as a kid. You know, it's like we
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: were lucky to get an hour a week with our
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: favorite show. And like they're just knocking out like seasons
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: worth in a couple of days.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: And again, it's just the difference in the generations and
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: the way that they process everything.
• 27:59
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Again, I don't understand it. I just try to
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: watch it and commentate on it and try to figure
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: out where it's going, but I don't... Again, I'm on
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: the other side of that wall. I'm straddling, looking from
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: a distance as it moves further and further into the future.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I don't fully understand it, but I'm trying to at
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: least kind of be open-minded. I don't know. Yeah.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah no you're being very positive about it it's.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: It's unusual especially you know going out on the internet
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: yeah i'm poisoning the internet with some sort of upbeat attitude.
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: And you know here's the thing i mean i'm going
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: like uh i guess i guess i'm going like where
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: does where does creativity fit in all this because i
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: go like my kids are pretty creative and everything but
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: i go like i go like you got to give
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: yourself a chance to be bored you know you got
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: to give your chance of this downtime this uninteracting unconsuming
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: i've definitely.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Heard this story and yeah right that's when we became
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: super creative as kids as we were bored and like
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: well what do i do like i don't have anything
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: i'm gonna scribble on this piece of paper and start
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: drawing monsters right what i would do right and like
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: and then i came up with all these weird creative
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: monsters and like i'm like But, again, I think it's
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: just that's the only way we knew to process things.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: When you're immersed in that 24-7, like, again, they're probably
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: streaming that. And on the side, on their light pin,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: on their super, super futuristic sci-fi screen, they're drawing out
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: the same monster that I came up with 20, 50,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: 100 years ago.
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: It's just different. It's just different. The emphasis for me
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: to be creative. was to give myself something that I
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: could relate to that I was interested in. But I mean... uh,
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: it seems like they're like barraged by stuff that's interesting
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: and their niche into their very interest. And so why
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: would you, why? I mean, and then you've got like
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: this connection with like a hundred other people that are
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: into the exact same thing.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: So why?
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, you're already fulfilled, right? I mean, you're fulfilled.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: There's a niche out there already fulfilling that.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: Damn it, I'm angry that my children are fulfilled. I know.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: I know, right?
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, how are they going to ever find
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: their own voice if they're always eating, eating, eating? Consuming.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom. But at the same time,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: there's also like a freedom to how easy it is
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: to do that. Like if they have even the inkling
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: of like, oh, I want to put something out there.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: You grab your phone.
• 30:29
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: And within a few minutes, you've made a video and
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: you've immediately uploaded it to YouTube if you want.
• 30:33
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: And you're done.
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: And you got immediate feedback.
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: And you've already got... And yeah, you're immediately connected to
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: the people that are already your friends and you're already
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: getting feedback.
• 30:39
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Good or bad. Whatever the internet throws at you.
• 30:42
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 30:42
  Speaker 11: But.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Again, think back to when we were kids. If you
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: were like, I want to make a movie. You got
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: your Super 8 camera and I'm building dinosaurs out of
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: clay and trying to do stop motion, which didn't work
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: all that great. And I was terrible at feeding the
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: film into the projector. It was a fight. But think
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: how hard that was that stopped so many kids that
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: got like me. That was like, I don't know how to...
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: make my, my stop motion transformers movie, which I did
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: try to make by the way. And I, again, like
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: it just was so challenging that then like, I just
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: found something else to do.
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: Whereas now they have the, the ease of the technology
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: that maybe frees up the creativeness that gives them the
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: chance to be like, okay, here's your voice. Like go
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: for it, find it, like do what you want to do.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: And you're encouraged, you're encouraged by your peers to, to,
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: state your voice and, and, uh, or shot down.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: Again, that's a horrible place at times. This is true,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: but they have the freedom and they have the tools
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: to do stuff that we never had. So again, I
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: don't know what's going to come of it, but I
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: think it, it has an upside. It has promise to it.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: It's just with the internet also brings evil quite often
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: that I found. So yeah, I, I, I'm, I'm concerned,
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: but hopeful. Let's go with that.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: I just don't.
• 32:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: So, you know, it's not a doomsayer mentality. It's just
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: that the world has changed. And I don't, I, you know,
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: I'm struggling like everybody to understand what this means and
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: what we're going to make of this. And, you know,
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: as a parent, you're just always wondering if you're ruining
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: your kids, if your kids are going to grow up.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a reason I didn't want to go.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Down that road. Well, you know, you just go like,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: you go like, you know, and so, you know, everybody's
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: like so accepting and everybody's so like, like lovey-dovey and
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: everything and and like you know all types are welcome
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: and everything but then on the internet you know the
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: kids are killing themselves because they're getting cyber bullied yeah
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: i mean and you know i mean it just it's
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: like almost like displaced itself i.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: Don't romanticize it that it's a beautiful wonderful place right
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: again i it it offers so much freedom and so
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: much opportunity but with that comes the dark side the
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: dark side like she has people being a horrible to
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: each other right and preying on weaknesses and preying on
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: on you know just what is easy to attack right
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: the the kids that aren't prepared for that are being
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: taken out so like it's it's a frightening place as
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: much as it is like opportunity it is disturbing how
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: much can go on there that is just dark and afraid.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: And it's a road, and it's a uncharted road. It's
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: not like.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we have no idea what we're doing.
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: Right, right. So you're going like, I mean, what if Like,
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: the most embarrassing thing from middle school was broadcast to
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: the world, you know, that ever happened to you.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: That's the other side of that coin. Like, we think
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: of how hard we had it when we were like,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: nobody liked us because we were into Star Wars. But
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: we also didn't have people shooting cell phone footage of
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: whatever stupid thing we just did and then broadcasting it
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: to everyone around the world. And every one of your
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: friends in school now found some new thing to pick
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: on you for, a new thing to call you and
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: make fun of you for.
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Again, there's that flip side of that coin that's equally
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: as challenging, if not more so, exponentially than we ever understood. Yeah.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: When we were growing up, it was like nuclear obliteration.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: We were like, oh yeah, there's a nuclear arms race
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: and stuff like that. But with the echo chamber of
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: the internet, my daughter... believes that the world is going
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: to be over in 20 years, you know, because of.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: She might be right. I mean, that's the thing. I
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: hate to think of that, but I look at just
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: what's going on in the, the world, you know, people wise,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: climate wise, like the world itself is kind of destroying itself.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: And we certainly have not helped. We're kind of responsible.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it's like, it's amazing.
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: So that's, but that's like what they grow up with.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: That's the neurosis, you know, I mean, it was, it's just,
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: the world's gotten bigger. and it's gotten scarier and now
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: the doomsayers you know i don't know the doomsayers just
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: have bigger microphones and so it seems more real because
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: these are adults and then you got steven hawkins saying
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: before he croaked you know we're all gonna be dead
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: in 20 years you know thanks steve thanks steve good
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: good note to go out on you know uh you
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: know it's just like uh You know, it's a nightmare.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: This week, brought to you by nightmares.
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: Nightmares. You know, middle-aged paranoia. Don't understand them internets. Uh,
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: my kids are going to grow up to be sociopaths
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: and the world is going to be over. But you know,
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: I'm going like, well, you know, every generation thinks they
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: invented the apocalypse. So, you know, uh, so, you know,
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: I mean, uh.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, World War II was like the darkest day
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: ever at that point. But you look at what immediately
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: followed that is what so many people look at as
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: like Ah, the golden era of Americana, like the heyday,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: which again, for some people, for rich white men, but like,
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: you know, for anyone of another race or a woman.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: It was still horrible times, but.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: We've romanticized this mirror that came after the most horrifying
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: things in the world. ever and like we followed it
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: up with what is you know now romanticized to be
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: the greatest time so it's like it's all perspective and
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: we're all coming off of a doomsday and like going
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: to the next doomsday because you know then next thing
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: you know that generation grows up into a cuban missile
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: crisis and like you know it's like we just graduate
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: to the next horrible thing that.
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: Comes along every generation has their terrible thing that's going
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: to take us out.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: It's going to destroy us and right and we've just
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: gotten better and more efficient at how quickly we're going
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: to destroy.
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: Ourselves Right, right, right. And that brings us back to Romero.
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, like the whole, you know, 20 years, you know,
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: the climate change, oh, if we do something now, it's
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: just like the zombies. The climate change is now zombies,
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: you know, the zombies are now climate change, you know,
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: or like, you know, if we do something now, if
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: we all work together and do something now. We can
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: stop this thing, but we're too busy bickering. And so
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: now it's going to be like, you know, the zombies
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: are always, you know, that's why the slow zombies are better.
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: That's more realistic. That's more what we see.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: Zombies are inevitable. Yeah, right. They're going to take over.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Tell me how we got here.

  Speaker 1: over our primetime television.
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: This is true.
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: So that's our tie-in to this special episode. Normally, I

• 43:25
  Speaker 1: but as... Again, earlier today, we were discussing all the
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: weird aspects of Movie Meltdown. Right. And I've said the
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: name itself has become more and more, like, perfect as
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: we've gone on. Because not only do we, you know,
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: as a show, melt down on occasion.
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: But I always try to, like, the melting is like
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: that melding of all the media. And, like, again, looking
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: at the way kids have all these things at their fingertips. But, like,
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: everything is also blurring, too. And, like, movies and series, like,
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: it's becoming a weird gray area. occasionally we're going to
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: sit around and talk about a TV series and yeah,
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: it's fine. Yeah. And that's specifically, but what, what kind
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: of was, was handed to me at this event, like
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: I got to dragon con and they're like, Hey, okay. Uh,
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: you know, you as the awesome media outlet that movie
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: mouth gets to go to this, uh, this press conference
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: with the Rose MacGyver.
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, again, it's a perfect tie in. Cause
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: you've listened to, myself and Misty ramble on about how
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: much we love iZombie.
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: And it's kind of making good. Actually, afterwards, I called
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: Misty because sadly she couldn't be there this weekend. But
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: I was like, this is kind of making good on
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: several years ago. We specifically... and there is an episode
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: go back and find it if you care right uh
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: we specifically drove to chicago yeah because that was the
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: closest place that rose was making any appearance like she
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: was not coming anywhere this far into the the end
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: of the country right and like we were like dead
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: set we're like okay we at least want to like
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: go you know get a picture you know just have
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: her sign a picture and like say hey thanks for
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: making the show and like so yeah But, like, nothing
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: else came out of it. Like, even then, I was
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: trying to, like, oh, it'd be really cool to talk
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: to her.
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: And that didn't happen then.
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: So, like, we drove all the way to Chicago, and
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: we did at least get our picture, and we told
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: her she was awesome, and she is.
• 45:15
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: So, like, finally, this, like, years and years later, I
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: get here, and it's funny that it's after the wrap-up. Like,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: we at least now get to talk about the entirety
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: of the series.
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Because they just... wrapped up the show um so yeah
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: it's it's also really interesting i guess dragon con being
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: as huge as it is i've done and as you
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: know you've listened to a lot of my rambling with
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: celebrities over the years it's always kind of a one-on-one
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: you know i just sit there and and probably creep
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: them out and ask them weird questions and and usually
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: they are very accommodating and nice to me and they
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: answer them This one, because, again, there's just so many people,
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: they did it literally as a press conference. So we
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: went in and it was a room and we had
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: like a they had the Dragon Con banner behind her
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: and a stool up front. And she like sat down
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: and like in front of us all. And we had
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: at least it wasn't overwhelming. It wasn't like, you know,
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: over here, over here. It wasn't like a. A political
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: press conference, thankfully.
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: Right, right, right, right, right.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: It was all very nice and we were well-behaved and
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: all the people there and the media got along and
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: there was just sort of a handful of us, so
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: it was kind of cool, but we... It's a weird scenario.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not used to this. And you'll also get a
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: little more open mic sound because that's kind of how
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: I had to record it. But yeah, we get the
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: whole room here and you get... Don't worry. I get
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: to ask a couple questions. And of course, I immediately
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: launch into eating brains. Yeah. Because why wouldn't you?
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: That's the topic.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: Of course. And you tell me if I'm wrong. I
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: think I came up with a good idea as we
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: go into this. But you'll also... I'll try to... you
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: know boost the sound so you can get the other
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: uh reporters asking their questions too and and you can
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: get rose's take on all of it so i kind
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: of wanted to include this sort of in its entirety
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: of how the whole like press conference came together and
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: yes it is uh mostly i zombie really actually uh
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: if you're either behind watching i zombie or you live
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: in new zealand as we found out uh some of
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: the show there's a delay in how they see it
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: in other countries so If you haven't seen the wrap-up
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: of iZombie, spoiler alert, because someone's going to ask a
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: question about the way it wraps up. So just heads up,
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: well beforehand, you've been warned. But yeah, we also get
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: kind of an interesting take on that. It's mostly the
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: TV show. Don't worry if you want that weird prince
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: movie that she's involved in, now a trilogy. We do
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: get a question on that. So there is a movie
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: tie in there, don't you worry. I know you like
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: your weird princess and the royal baby movie they're going
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: to make, and I know you're excited about those things.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: That's in there too, but it's mostly zombies. So again,
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: the Romero legacy comes full circle.
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: I say we go right now and launch into our
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: discussion with Rose MacGyver. Awesome. This is such a nice
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: little setup, guys. Nicely lined up.
• 48:22
  Speaker 10: Cute.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: I like it.
• 48:25
  Speaker 10: OCD dream. Exactly, yeah.
• 48:26
  Speaker 13: I like the detail.
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: I respect that.
• 48:45
  Speaker 9: You're good to go. So this is Dragon Con number
• 48:47
  Speaker 9: two for you. Mm-hmm. What brought you back?
• 48:50
  Speaker 5: An invite, basically. I had been really excited to be
• 48:54
  Speaker 5: able to come back.
• 48:54
  Speaker 8: I'd been filming iZombie in Vancouver for the last few years,
• 48:58
  Speaker 8: which is a little bit of a hectic trip to
• 49:00
  Speaker 8: try to get here, too. But, yeah, we finished now,
• 49:04
  Speaker 8: so I was really excited to be able to come
• 49:06
  Speaker 8: back and see everyone and see the madness here.
• 49:09
  Speaker 5: It's amazing. It's huge.
• 49:13
  Speaker 9: I have a question.
• 49:14
  Speaker 8: Were there any brains that you didn't get the opportunity
• 49:16
  Speaker 8: to play but think would have been a lot of
• 49:19
  Speaker 8: fun or interesting?
• 49:20
  Speaker 5: Or a challenge I used.
• 49:21
  Speaker 8: To think that in about season four and then basically
• 49:25
  Speaker 8: every stretched part of my imagination the writers had already
• 49:30
  Speaker 8: kind of beat me too I remember thinking like fitness
• 49:33
  Speaker 8: guru would be.
• 49:34
  Speaker 5: A fun one that was my brilliant idea and they
• 49:37
  Speaker 5: were like oh we've already got that planned for season
• 49:39
  Speaker 5: five so They were pretty across that.
• 49:42
  Speaker 8: And over the course of five years, I can't remember
• 49:44
  Speaker 8: how many, but it was something around 60 brains. So basically,
• 49:49
  Speaker 8: you know, we were happy in some ways that, like,
• 49:54
  Speaker 8: I guess it could have spread. Other people could have
• 49:55
  Speaker 8: been playing more brains, but we'd used up a lot
• 49:58
  Speaker 8: of resources by the end of season five.
• 50:01
  Speaker 10: Was there anything that the writers did or they sent
• 50:05
  Speaker 10: Liz that you were surprised by?
• 50:06
  Speaker 8: They pranked me one time saying that– They know I'm
• 50:10
  Speaker 8: a dog person. I'm not as much of a cat person.
• 50:12
  Speaker 8: I'm changing now. Guys, there's still room for growth. But
• 50:16
  Speaker 8: I have met a couple of cats that I don't
• 50:18
  Speaker 8: mind now. But I had really, we had cats growing
• 50:21
  Speaker 8: up that were like not very nice. We weren't allowed
• 50:24
  Speaker 8: to pet them. They were like very scratchy.
• 50:25
  Speaker 5: So growing up, they weren't my favorite animal.
• 50:28
  Speaker 8: And the writers found that out and called me and
• 50:31
  Speaker 8: told me I had to play a cat lady and
• 50:32
  Speaker 8: that I was going to be working with 17 cats.
• 50:34
  Speaker 8: And I had this like phone call and they were all,
• 50:37
  Speaker 8: hoping I was going to be a diva and throw
• 50:39
  Speaker 8: down and say, no, absolutely not.
• 50:40
  Speaker 5: I'm not doing it. Instead, I was like, I still
• 50:43
  Speaker 5: need a job. So, okay. Like, you know, 17, definitely
• 50:47
  Speaker 5: no more.
• 50:48
  Speaker 12: Okay.
• 50:49
  Speaker 5: Anyway, they told me it was a joke in the
• 50:50
  Speaker 5: end and I was rather relieved.
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: So I have a friend who's dying for me to
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: ask about your thoughts on the Christmas Prince movies that
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: you've been in.
• 51:01
  Speaker 9: And of course, number three is coming out. It's going
• 51:03
  Speaker 9: to be a trilogy now.
• 51:04
  Speaker 11: Oh yeah.
• 51:05
  Speaker 5: The Royal Babies.
• 51:06
  Speaker 9: Right, exactly. So, I mean, what's it like for work
• 51:09
  Speaker 9: on that project?
• 51:11
  Speaker 8: It's just been the most surreal thing where it was
• 51:14
  Speaker 8: like a sweet holiday movie that just went nuts. I
• 51:18
  Speaker 8: didn't know what was going to happen. So I've just
• 51:21
  Speaker 8: been really grateful. Like anything that kind of keeps getting renewed,
• 51:25
  Speaker 8: it's effectively like getting renewed as a TV series. So
• 51:28
  Speaker 8: I'm just kind of in awe that there's a lot
• 51:32
  Speaker 8: of those kinds of movies that are out there. And
• 51:33
  Speaker 8: for some reason, this one sort of did something different.
• 51:37
  Speaker 8: So it's, it's really, it's fun.
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
• 51:39
  Speaker 8: It's not, um, rewriting cinema, but it's something like, I
• 51:44
  Speaker 8: think a lot of the time right.
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: Now we're getting a lot of bad news in the media.
• 51:48
  Speaker 8: A lot of the time, um, not that's actually any
• 51:51
  Speaker 8: different to what has been happening, I think forever, but we're.
• 51:54
  Speaker 5: Getting inundated with a lot of negative media.
• 51:57
  Speaker 8: So people want to watch something that makes them feel good. And, um, Apparently,
• 52:02
  Speaker 8: Queen Amber of Aldovia makes people feel really good.
• 52:05
  Speaker 5: So, yeah, exactly. Load up the eggnog and get ready
• 52:09
  Speaker 5: for another one, guys.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Netflix had that little blurb. It was like, we
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: detected that somebody's watched this film.
• 52:15
  Speaker 12: 53.
• 52:15
  Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, who heard you?
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, exactly.
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: They had a few really good tweets about it.
• 52:20
  Speaker 6: Nice.
• 52:21
  Speaker 5: I had a friend who watched it 12 times over Christmas.
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: 12?
• 52:24
  Speaker 5: She was like, I don't know why I can't stop
• 52:26
  Speaker 5: watching it. And I was like.
• 52:28
  Speaker 8: So we've made it a tradition now at our place
• 52:31
  Speaker 8: to watch the one and then the two.
• 52:33
  Speaker 5: So next year we can. Yeah, it's like the new
• 52:36
  Speaker 5: Lord of the Rings, right? Yeah, definitely. That's what I'm
• 52:39
  Speaker 5: pitching it as. I like that pitch, actually. We'll leave
• 52:43
  Speaker 5: the Hobbit standalone now.
• 52:44
  Speaker 9: Sure.
• 52:45
  Speaker 5: Pull in a whole new fandom. Who's going to be
• 52:47
  Speaker 5: the Hobbit from Christmas Prince?
• 52:51
  Speaker 12: Me?
• 52:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you have the accent, it's fine. Oh, okay.
• 52:54
  Speaker 5: Exactly right.
• 52:55
  Speaker 11: I can take them to the.
• 52:56
  Speaker 5: I don't know, Elf Hobbit?
• 52:59
  Speaker 8: Take them to the, yeah, back to New Zealand and
• 53:02
  Speaker 8: all the Hobbiton sets. Take Queen Amber Valdivia back there
• 53:07
  Speaker 8: to the Shire.
• 53:08
  Speaker 5: That would be nice. All right, so what was your
• 53:12
  Speaker 5: favorite brain? I know you've probably asked this a thousand times,
• 53:14
  Speaker 5: but what was the most fun since you've ended the
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: series out of all the seasons? What was your favorite brain?
• 53:23
  Speaker 8: It's too hard to really choose one. It kind of
• 53:24
  Speaker 8: depends how I feel on any given day that I
• 53:26
  Speaker 8: get asked. Right now, I feel like.
• 53:29
  Speaker 5: Dungeons & Dragons brain was really, really fun.
• 53:32
  Speaker 8: Mainly because it was so communal. Some of the brains
• 53:35
  Speaker 8: had put me in my own sort of experience in
• 53:37
  Speaker 8: the show. And that was one that brought everybody together.
• 53:40
  Speaker 8: And everybody got to have so much fun when I
• 53:43
  Speaker 8: was on that brain and I was the dungeon master.
• 53:45
  Speaker 8: And kind of they were almost on their own brains themselves.
• 53:48
  Speaker 8: Like all the rest of the cast were bringing out
• 53:51
  Speaker 8: these very heightened versions of themselves and getting to do
• 53:54
  Speaker 8: all of the role playing and everything.
• 53:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 53:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah, we had a really good time on that.
• 53:59
  Speaker 9: Can I follow up on that? D & D is
• 54:02
  Speaker 9: just absolutely exploding all over the place. Do you personally
• 54:06
  Speaker 9: play D & D?
• 54:07
  Speaker 5: We didn't have time when we were doing the show, really,
• 54:10
  Speaker 5: just realistically.
• 54:11
  Speaker 8: Malcolm Goodwin, who plays Clive Babineau on the show, is
• 54:14
  Speaker 8: the one person who went to a campaign outside of...
• 54:17
  Speaker 8: Once we'd finished shooting, we all really enjoyed it, but
• 54:20
  Speaker 8: he was like, I want to pursue this. So he
• 54:22
  Speaker 8: went and did a campaign, but it took up like
• 54:24
  Speaker 8: six hours, turns out, and we only have like one
• 54:27
  Speaker 8: day to do our laundry. So that just didn't work
• 54:30
  Speaker 8: out as being very practical at that time. But also
• 54:33
  Speaker 8: because I travel so much and it's something you have
• 54:34
  Speaker 8: to commit to regularly. So it hasn't happened yet, but
• 54:39
  Speaker 8: who knows? Maybe that's going to be my next chapter.
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: On the eating brains. I love the cooking montages. Were
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: there any of those that you had any input on?
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: And then what's the best and worst about all of them?
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, whatever they make you eat in that browser.
• 54:55
  Speaker 5: I had no input in anything.
• 54:56
  Speaker 8: They really, we had such a good writer's room and yeah,
• 55:01
  Speaker 8: I would suggest a brain or come up with an idea.
• 55:03
  Speaker 5: And it was always like just small fry compared to
• 55:06
  Speaker 5: what they had in mind.
• 55:06
  Speaker 8: So a lot of the time that was, I was
• 55:10
  Speaker 8: also trying to come up with a, the characters each
• 55:12
  Speaker 8: week so I kind of didn't have much brain power
• 55:15
  Speaker 8: left to contribute usefully anywhere else so it was mainly
• 55:20
  Speaker 8: all decided by the writers room and then we had
• 55:23
  Speaker 8: a great chef called Juno who worked with us through
• 55:25
  Speaker 8: the whole show and pretty much the whole show and
• 55:28
  Speaker 8: he would bring these creations to life and they were
• 55:30
  Speaker 8: always puns they were always based on the example I
• 55:33
  Speaker 8: give is like the episode that I'm on a white
• 55:36
  Speaker 8: wrapper brain there's like a white wrap that they're using
• 55:39
  Speaker 8: like a tortilla that they're wrapping the food in So
• 55:42
  Speaker 8: there would always be like, sometimes they're more obvious and
• 55:44
  Speaker 8: sometimes not.
• 55:46
  Speaker 5: But we always enjoyed those.
• 55:47
  Speaker 8: And the food itself, the meal was normally really good,
• 55:52
  Speaker 8: except for the brain part.
• 55:53
  Speaker 5: That was always disgusting. What did they use?
• 55:56
  Speaker 8: Gelatin, corn syrup. They did some fondant when it was
• 55:59
  Speaker 8: supposed to be harder or they would like.
• 56:03
  Speaker 5: All sorts.
• 56:03
  Speaker 8: They've kind of, they ended up exploring, but it's really
• 56:06
  Speaker 8: impossible to enjoy something that looks like a brain.
• 56:08
  Speaker 13: Yeah.
• 56:09
  Speaker 5: No, I don't recommend that part. There's a signature restaurant
• 56:12
  Speaker 5: opening up soon.
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 56:13
  Speaker 5: Okay, keep it posted, right? Actually, I mean, it's not
• 56:16
  Speaker 5: so bad.
• 56:17
  Speaker 7: If you send it up here, that would work.
• 56:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right, exactly.
• 56:20
  Speaker 5: Maybe just for the cons, I think.
• 56:22
  Speaker 8: Dragon Con, a Dragon Con brain restaurant could work.
• 56:24
  Speaker 5: A Pop-Up Brain Restaurant. Y'all, let's make this happen. Guys,
• 56:26
  Speaker 5: we should totally. Let's do it.
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: Let's do it.
• 56:29
  Speaker 5: We'll send it. We'll send it and we'll do it.
• 56:31
  Speaker 5: Hashtag it. Hashtag it. Yes, Pop-Up Brain Restaurant.
• 56:34
  Speaker 8: I'm sure people will be like, Dragon Con 2020. Pop-Up
• 56:37
  Speaker 8: Brain restaurant.
• 56:37
  Speaker 10: Yeah.
• 56:38
  Speaker 5: You have to be there to cut the ribbon. Exactly.
• 56:40
  Speaker 9: And a chef hat on, obviously.
• 56:42
  Speaker 13: Yeah, exactly.
• 56:43
  Speaker 9: It's a real possibility.
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: Last night someone was cosplaying a little mobile squid restaurant
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: and they were cooking squid downstairs.
• 56:49
  Speaker 12: What?
• 56:50
  Speaker 5: Oh, my gosh.
• 56:50
  Speaker 8: So we're now doing a Pop-Up Brain costume. A pop-up
• 56:53
  Speaker 8: brain restaurant costume. All of us have to dress up
• 56:56
  Speaker 8: like zombies.
• 56:58
  Speaker 5: Okay, I'll take this. Let's roll with it.
• 57:01
  Speaker 8: I keep thinking I want to do a cosplay at
• 57:03
  Speaker 8: one of these concerts, but what should I do?
• 57:05
  Speaker 5: I'm shy. These people are so good. Have you seen
• 57:09
  Speaker 5: the Andrew Garfield one where he dresses up like Spider-Man?
• 57:13
  Speaker 5: for photos you should dress up like Liv but.
• 57:16
  Speaker 8: Do a really bad job on the makeup oh my
• 57:18
  Speaker 8: god that would be so funny and then you're just
• 57:21
  Speaker 8: like standing in there and then you go to the.
• 57:22
  Speaker 5: Panel and they're like oh shit especially when you.
• 57:25
  Speaker 8: See these really good kids cosplaying or like people of
• 57:28
  Speaker 8: all ages but particularly like these people who do all
• 57:30
  Speaker 8: the YouTube tutorials how.
• 57:32
  Speaker 16: Old am I by the way like a grandma the
• 57:34
  Speaker 16: kids who do all the YouTube tutorials and they learn
• 57:36
  Speaker 16: how to do Liv's makeup and they're so good and
• 57:39
  Speaker 16: I'm like I would definitely be an inferior Liv at
• 57:43
  Speaker 16: the convention, but maybe I should.
• 57:44
  Speaker 5: Maybe that's good. Inferior Liv. That's fine. What if you
• 57:47
  Speaker 5: bring your makeup artist with you and you're like a
• 57:49
  Speaker 5: superb Liv? People are like, oh my god, she looks
• 57:51
  Speaker 5: just like Liv Moore. You're like, surprise, bitches.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.
• 57:54
  Speaker 5: I would need to bring her. That would be somebody.
• 57:56
  Speaker 9: Nah, doesn't look like her.
• 57:58
  Speaker 8: That would be fun, though. Except, I will tell you,
• 58:00
  Speaker 8: the one thing I don't miss from that show is
• 58:02
  Speaker 8: the wig. It was not a great fit.
• 58:05
  Speaker 5: Ever. You can see the wig get better as the
• 58:07
  Speaker 5: seasons progress.
• 58:08
  Speaker 8: The first And also, yeah, depending on, like, any given
• 58:12
  Speaker 8: week and how fast we were moving, and there are
• 58:14
  Speaker 8: so many elements to it. They did a great job
• 58:16
  Speaker 8: with trying to make it work. But it turns out, like,
• 58:19
  Speaker 8: a white lace front wig with a revealed hairline is
• 58:22
  Speaker 8: a really hard thing to do.
• 58:23
  Speaker 5: Trust me.
• 58:24
  Speaker 11: I know.
• 58:24
  Speaker 5: I'm actually wearing one with a photo op with you.
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: Oh, cool. Later, yeah.
• 58:28
  Speaker 15: Exciting.
• 58:28
  Speaker 5: It's going to be great.
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: Well, don't worry.
• 58:32
  Speaker 5: There's no judgment here. I get it. I get it.
• 58:34
  Speaker 5: I do have a question, though. regarding iZombie, the end
• 58:37
  Speaker 5: of it. So, last year, I interviewed Jessica Harmon. I
• 58:40
  Speaker 5: love Jessica Harmon so much. She's so sweet. I love Richard, too. Yeah.
• 58:44
  Speaker 5: Such a doll.
• 58:45
  Speaker 8: Crazy talented family. Bozio and Babineau are like my OTP.
• 58:49
  Speaker 12: My OTP.
• 58:50
  Speaker 8: They're my OTP.
• 58:54
  Speaker 5: So, how do you feel that Liv decided to stay
• 58:57
  Speaker 5: at Zombie? Oh, spoilers, yeah. With, I mean, you know,
• 59:01
  Speaker 5: it's been outside, people. But with Major.
• 59:06
  Speaker 8: I think it's not out in New Zealand yet.
• 59:08
  Speaker 12: Is it really not?
• 59:08
  Speaker 5: I think, yeah, New Zealand gets it about six years
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: after everyone. Spoiler alert. Okay, I'm sorry.
• 59:15
  Speaker 12: Spoiler alert.
• 59:15
  Speaker 9: No, no, no, you're good.
• 59:16
  Speaker 5: Spoiler alert.
• 59:18
  Speaker 8: Liv stays a zombie with Major, and do you think
• 59:21
  Speaker 8: that Major is her.
• 59:22
  Speaker 5: Are they just friends now? How does she feel that
• 59:24
  Speaker 5: she's just staying a zombie? helping out these kids. No,
• 59:27
  Speaker 5: they're not friends. They're definitely together. They're married. They're actually
• 59:30
  Speaker 5: wearing little wedding rings. I did not notice that. It's
• 59:32
  Speaker 5: a little spoiler for you guys.
• 59:33
  Speaker 8: But they, yeah, I think I love kind of the
• 59:37
  Speaker 8: journey of their relationship where I think there's something really
• 59:40
  Speaker 8: special about being friends as well as being partners. And
• 59:44
  Speaker 8: I know it was a rocky road to get there
• 59:46
  Speaker 8: and a lot of people got invested in a lot
• 59:48
  Speaker 8: of Liv's relationships. But I felt like it's real and
• 59:53
  Speaker 8: they really know each other and they know their flaws
• 59:55
  Speaker 8: and they know their strengths. And, um, I was very
• 59:59
  Speaker 8: happy about the decision for Liv to remain a zombie.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 8: That part I felt very strongly about because the whole
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 8: show to me is about, she didn't really know herself
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 8: before that and this gave her purpose. And so to
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 8: take that away, I kind of, it loses the metaphor
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 8: of supporting outsiders and people who don't feel like normal
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 8: or haven't been made to feel normal by everybody else. So,
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 8: for her to suddenly become normal again, to me, would
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 8: have been a real failure. And I like that she
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 8: kind of, she's, yeah, that it always, I used to
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 8: think of David Bowie a lot with Liv, like I
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 8: listened to a lot of his music about just like, yeah,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 8: like celebrating what makes you odd. And so that would
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 8: have been kind of very wrong to me, I think,
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 8: if Liv had ended up becoming human again.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 5: And they needed her.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 8: It worked out perfectly because she, you know, I don't
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 8: want her to stay a zombie just because, but instead
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 8: she was able to actually be doing something for other
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 8: people because of that.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 5: Um, and they needed it.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: So now that the final season is here for a zombie, what's,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: what's on your project slate? Can you talk about anything
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: you're working on that's coming up?
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 5: I am, um, I'm not sure. I'm doing some theater.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 8: I'm not sure I'm allowed to talk about that yet,
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 8: but I am doing some theater, which I'm really looking
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 8: forward to. I haven't done it in 10 years. And, um,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 8: For me to be able to do a play again
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 8: where you rehearse for like two months is so exciting
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 8: because with Liv, you know, and most of the jobs
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 8: that I've been working on, it's so fast turnaround and
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 8: you have a week to come up with something and
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 8: then it's out and then.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 5: It's gone and it's a new thing. And so to
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 5: be able to kind of.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 8: Really analyse a play and like it's going to be
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 8: a very different experience, very challenging, really.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 5: exciting. So that's kind of keeping me occupied at the moment.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 5: And then I directed a little short film as well.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 5: So I kind of wanted to shake.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 8: Up and do some off-camera stuff for a little bit too.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 5: I've been on camera for the last six months.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: Ride On?
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 5: Nice Ride. But Ride On's a good old title.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 12: Pitching.
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 5: I like that.
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 9: What's the short film about?
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 5: I haven't actually talked about it at all yet.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 8: I kind of kept that one a little bit private
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 8: just because it was my first experience doing it and
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 8: I sort of wanted to have um, to feel safe
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 8: and be able to feel vulnerable in it without kind
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 8: of sharing that with other people yet. Um, just till
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 8: I was working out how it actually worked and whether
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 8: I felt competent in that experience.
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 5: Um, and I had a really good time. It's yeah,
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 5: it's just kind.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 8: Of a small, um, character studies or I would kind
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 8: of say about it at the moment, but I worked
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 8: with some really great actors and an incredible team, a producer,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 8: Marley Elfman, who's just a certifiable genius producer. Um, So
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 8: I had a really, really good time, and I'm looking
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 8: forward to doing some more kind of creating material as well.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 5: Party going on next door. It's always over at Dragon Age.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 8: I'd like to know, what are your thoughts on your
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 8: character arc over the course of the show? I would
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 8: say that, like I mentioned, I feel, like, honored to
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 8: play a character that was a freak. and loved being
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 8: a freak. Ultimately, she didn't like it to begin with.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 8: Like I think most of us feel when we feel
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 8: targeted or alienated. Um, but she ended up using that
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 8: to her advantage and finding all the strengths that came
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 8: with that. Um, it's a really unusual hero. And people
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 8: say to me, what superhero would you like to play?
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 8: And I think, I feel like I played one. Liv's
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 8: like the coolest superhero to me.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 5: She's very, yeah. And she's real.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 8: And like, You know, as much as it's a silly
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 8: comedy about zombies, it's like this very grounded person who
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 8: is struggling with a bit of an identity crisis and
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 8: ultimately comes out of this show, I feel like, knowing
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 8: her identity. And that's kind of all we can hope for,
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 8: I think, in life. So, yeah, I feel very good
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 8: about the opportunity to play her. And to play, often
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 8: right now, I think, strong women are mistakenly kind of
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 8: portrayed as tough and that you have to be quite
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 8: like have a very masculine energy in order to be
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 8: a strong woman.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 5: And I'm just like, that's so limiting.
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 8: This is a person who's able to be vulnerable and
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 8: have masculine elements and feminine elements and just be a complicated,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 8: real person. And I think that to me is exciting
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 8: for the girls to be able to look up to
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 8: and see this person who it's not.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 5: She doesn't have to be tough. She can be, she
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 5: can ask for help too. And that's strong. So yeah,
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 5: I really, I love, love playing.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 9: In what universe isn't Tinkerbell a superhero?
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 5: Great question.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 8: I always thought that is the one brain that I
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 8: thought would be really good, is live a Tinkerbell's brain.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 9: A little appetizer.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 5: I know, exactly. Yeah, just a little one. Just a
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 5: tiny little morsel.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 8: When can you miss it?
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 5: But, yeah, I would have loved to do that. I
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 5: don't think those universes could cross over. Who knows who
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 5: owns what properties? I don't get how that stuff works.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 4: I pitched it, though.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: In fan fiction, I mean that.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 5: Exactly. I'm sure somebody's done a little Tinkerbell brain. I've
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 5: got to track that down.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: On that identity crisis, I mean, going in, you knew
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: the premise, but how prepared were you for how much
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: you were going.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 15: To have to throw at, I mean, every week?
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: It's kind of a dream for an actress, but at
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 1: the same time, there's a lot throwing at you. Were
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: you prepared and how wrong were you by the end
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: of that?
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 8: I had absolutely no idea, which was probably very lucky
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 8: because it could be very intimidating.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 5: Yes, it is a dream.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 8: It's like, you know, going into the sort of tickle
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 8: trunk or whatever you call it. Do you guys know
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 8: that word?
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 5: Whereas, like, costumes, I think it's... You do?
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 5: I think it's a Canadian thing. That's what they used
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 5: to say out there a lot.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 8: But being able to go in and, like, pull out
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 8: a different costume each week and play this different thing,
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 8: it's really fun, but it is definitely an intimidating prospect.
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 5: So I was quite happy that we moved so quickly.
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 8: I didn't have time to think, really, or get too
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 8: intimidated by it. And, yeah, I don't think they knew either,
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 8: going into it, quite how much, because it wasn't something
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 8: from the comic that was... very heavily focused on, and
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 8: it just became a device that worked so well for
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 8: the show. And one other thing I would say is
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 8: that we have been so supported by Chris Robertson and
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 8: Michael Allred who created iZombie the comic, and that has
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 8: been just the biggest blessing because when the person of
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 8: the original property gets behind all the departures you've made
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 8: from their material as well and recognizes that it needs
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 8: to work differently in order to work as a TV
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 8: show but still have the heart or some of the
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 8: concepts from the thing, it's just been like, such a
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 8: blessing and kind of rare by the sounds of things
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 8: that it's, it's championed by those people.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 5: So I'm very grateful to them. Um, did you get
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 5: to keep anything from the set?
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 8: Ali Meshalka, who plays Peyton, um, secured the head that's
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 8: on our mantelpiece where it's.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 5: Like, um, I think it's like an Egyptian headdress.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 8: I'm not sure exactly, but she's green and white head
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 8: that sat on Liv and Peyton's mantelpiece. And she took
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 8: that from me. So it's sitting on my mantelpiece. I
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 8: normally don't take too much from shows. Cause otherwise you
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 8: can end up with like.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 5: A museum of a house.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 8: And I also feel a little self-conscious about that. Like
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 8: in my own home, be like, here's.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 5: My head from my zombie. That was one that like
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 5: nobody knows. So it just looks like a piece of art,
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 5: you know.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 8: I don't know if you've asked this, what is your
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 8: least favorite brain?
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 5: Um, the Archie Bunker kind of brain. It was like
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 5: this very racist, bigoted brain. It worked as an episode.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 5: It was good. It just turns out it's less fun
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 5: playing an unlikable character. Who would have guessed, right? I've
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 5: been so spoiled.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 8: I get to always play the sort of, it's a
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 8: person we want to root for and that was not
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 8: a character you want to.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 5: Root for alright well we can go and wrap that
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 5: up thank you so much you guys I really appreciate
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 5: it it was so fun.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 14: It was very cool.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 3: And adorable.
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 1: And adorable. There we go. She was very nice. Again,
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 1: it was very brief when I met her that first
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: time at the table. So this was, you know, we
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: sort of stopped afterwards. And she talked to everybody. And
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: she was very nice. And she took photos. And we
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: did a group photo. It was actually really cool. So
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: it was a nice little press event. I usually don't, like,
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: bond with other media people. But this was a nice little, again,
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: everyone getting along at this event. It's very strange. It's
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: not the world I'm used to.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: Geeks all getting along it's craziness but yeah rose was
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: awesome so thank you to rose for partaking in all
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: of this and and thanks to dragon con for letting
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: me be part of it because it was really cool
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: and i still again you heard it did i not
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 1: have a good idea the rest of the media people
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: all jumped on board they were like this is great

• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: did get a high five from Spider-Man earlier.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: Okay. I, um, I was trying to run down some
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: of the, the fine moments along the way. I, I
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 1: did when we were out at the, uh, you, you
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: experienced the parade this morning.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: I was standing there and there was somebody like sort
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 1: of looming behind me. And this other person was like, um,
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: Excuse us. And I turn around and this like nine
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: foot creature is like looming behind me trying to like
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 1: slowly make his way through the crowd. I was like, dude,
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: that is impressive. He was some sort of mech of
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: something or other. Again, it almost seemed like their own creation.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: Like I wasn't even 100% sure where he came from,
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 1: but damn, he was impressive. The other thing, so yeah,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: the parade was pretty impressive. I wasn't even planning, again,
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: it just timed out where I ended up there in
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: the middle of the craziness.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 2: Nice.
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 1: Because, yeah, yesterday I was asked, like, are you going
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: to the parade? And I was like, I don't, do
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 1: I ever need to go to a parade? I don't know.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: You gotta go to the parade. But I was, like,
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: I was surprised how, like, how fun like again i
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: i've seen parades and i'm always kind of like eh
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 1: whatever but this one like there was just so much
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: like work put into it and like yes again so
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: many people that just aren't even connected to them they
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: just like signed up and wanted to be part of
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: it and put so much work into their costumes and
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: whatever giant car they were driving and they built a
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: sandcrawler for god's sake that was it was amazing like
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: i just looked up and was like oh my god
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: that's Almost a full-scale, life-size sand crawler coming down the street.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 3: Right, down Peachtree Street in Atlanta. It was pretty amazing.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 3: We had this gigantic sand crawler going down. That was
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 3: the highlight.
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: It was pretty impressive, I gotta say. So, yeah, there's
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: a lot of work put into that. And I just
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: sort of stumbled in the middle of, oh, here's the parade. Oh, wow.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: This is so impressive. So, yeah, the amount of people
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: involved in that is just crazy.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And it changes every year. Like, uh, one year
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 3: there was some kind of like national effort for all
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: the storm troopers to show up. And so in the
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: middle of downtown, it looked like an Imperial invasion. It
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 3: was like, uh, an entire battalion of storm troopers. I
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: did see that.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: Star destroyer hanging over the city on the news. I
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: wondered what that was.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 3: You would not have been surprised to look up and
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: see the star destroyer because it was, it was surreal
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 3: seeing that many storm troopers all in one spot, you know? And, uh, And,
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 3: and so, you know, and then one year, one year,
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 3: the highlight was like DJ Vader or something like that. Like, like, uh, uh, like, uh, Vader, like, uh,
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 3: spinning platters and like, you know, just like, I mean.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: I'd be on board for that. Who doesn't want Vader? Like,
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: you know, rocking out some tunes.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: Oh man. Yeah. Yeah. The, the, the parade for me
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 3: is always like the highlight of the thing. And in
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 3: the last couple of years, honestly, it's just been come downtown.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 3: see the parade, sneak away. All right. And, uh, and, uh,
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 3: so yeah, yeah. So yeah.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: To, to bring me around on a parade is pretty impressive.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 1: And I gotta say, I, I would have totally fought
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: it had I not, you know, just ended up there
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: and like, I, yeah, I, I'm like, if I'm coming back,
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: I have no problem seeing the parade now. It was like,
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 1: that was impressive. So I'm, I'm all for it.
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 3: Brian enjoyed a parade.
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, really. He would have seen that. The other thing, again,
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: we've played this game many a time on our shows
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: because we're at conventions. We're always like, let's pick a
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 1: thing and be like, all right. Especially the thing that's
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 1: so huge. We'll be like, Deadpool. We'll start counting how
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: many Deadpools we see all day. Or we're going to
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: count Harley Quinns. We've played that, but it usually gets
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: away from us because it's so overwhelming. I was not
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: prepared when I started this. I first threw out, because
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 1: I'm waiting in line for their check-in, and the person
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: in front of us has a shirt on that has
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: something in Stranger Things font. And then the next, like,
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: two seconds later, somebody walks past and has something else
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: in Stranger Things font. I'm like, okay, we're going to
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 1: go with our Stranger Things, like, on a t-shirt with
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: some sort of weird, either just a generic Stranger Things
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: shirt or a bastardized form of it.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 1: And so I'm going with that, and I start counting out,
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: and I'm getting, you know, already, by the time we
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 1: get inside, it's like, you know, six or eight. And
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: then I hit another... extra level that i was not
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 1: thinking of and i guess if you would ask me
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: beforehand i want to oh yeah i'm gonna see a
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: ton of those but i hadn't thought of it and
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: i got inside and i got my first pair of
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: people in full-on scoops ahoy uniform oh and i was
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 1: like oh yeah that's gonna be this year like that's
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: gonna be the uniform for this year's dragon con like
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: it is and i like very quickly lost count Like
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: at that point, I was just like, well, I guess
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: we have to have a subsection of like full on
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 1: Scoops Ahoy uniforms. And then within an hour, I was
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: so overwhelmed. It's astronomical. I can't, I can't. My favorite,
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: I saw a couple later, but my first one, the
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: first girl that I saw that also came equipped with
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: a dry erase board that had the you suck count.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 16: Yeah.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 1: That was a nice accessory. The rest were just kind
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: of wearing the uniform, but the one that came with
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: the dry erase board that had the running count going
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: on it, I was like, you know, that's a nice add-on.
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: I like that.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 15: Bonus points to you.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: Scoops Ahoy. Far and away was the runaway costume to
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: have this year. It's all about Scoops Ahoy.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 3: That's interesting. I didn't see one, but you know what?
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 3: The second I walked in, I shut down.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 10: You.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 3: I shut down completely.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 1: Again, in the real world, I don't know how you
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: normally operate, but... I was assuming you were going to
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: go maybe catatonic. I assumed a fetal position was coming
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: and you were going to be freaking out.
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 3: I was trying to mentally bilocate and everything.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: Again, you haven't been in several years, so it's become
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: astronomically bigger since last you were immersed in it. I
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: don't blame you. It's a lot to take in.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 3: I'm used to the 12 people I see every day. And,
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: you know, this, that. I mean, I got a nice
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: little routine ritual going on here. And, yeah, going into
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 3: the midst of 70,000 people. Maybe 75. I don't know
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 3: what the running count was. It was, uh, yeah. Yeah.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 1: And you know, it's a little overwhelming for people, especially
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: people who are like very introverted and don't go out
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: in the world much like all of us kind of,
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: it's who we are.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 3: This was about it for me and everything.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: So, uh, but yes, it's, it's, it's an amazing undertaking
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: and the fact that it comes together and goes off
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 1: without a hitch and all the, as previously stated, the
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 1: geeks get along and it's, it's just, it's amazing to
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: witness firsthand. So, I'm glad I was a part of it,
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: if nothing else. But as an extra bonus, I'm glad
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: I got to come to this city and hang out
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 1: with you. Hey! Because that's been the majority of our
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: day today.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 12: Right.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: It's just been hanging out and talking about movies and
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: you asking weird questions about the show that you probably
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: wondered for years on end.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 6: Sure, sure.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: So, like, this is, yeah, this is what it's all
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: come to.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 5: It is.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 3: Filled in some holes in the mythology for me.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 1: And opened up new avenues that we were not prepared for.
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 3: There we go. Absolutely.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: Definitely. So it's been a great weekend. I've had a
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: wonderful time. So I'm just glad to have come to

  Speaker 3: You know, live from DragonCon. We're going to hang out
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 3: out there all day. And I was like.
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: Somebody had a little response.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 3: I could not... I really... I could not have been
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: there for one more second.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: He was a little overwhelmed, guys. I'll just go ahead
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: and tell you.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 3: One more second there. I would have lost my mind.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 1: I was just like, I'm fine with going now. If
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 1: you need to get out into an open space with
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 1: not so many people, we can go outside.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 3: It's cool.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 1: It's cool.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: Right, right. I needed some air.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 1: I witnessed my parade of geeks, both inside and out.
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 1: And I was just like, it's cool. I've seen plenty today.
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 1: We can go out into the world. So we went out,
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 1: we hung out, and we ended up here at this
