00:02:07   culture is a secret culture or you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/127">TS</a>]

00:02:09   was it accidentally secret was it secret [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/129">TS</a>]

00:02:11   because nobody really cared to join me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/131">TS</a>]

00:02:13   so we were all alone in it and one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/133">TS</a>]

00:02:16   the one of the articles that came up was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/136">TS</a>]

00:02:20   a piece that ran and wired a little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/140">TS</a>]

00:02:22   while ago by comedian Patton [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/142">TS</a>]

00:02:46   well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/166">TS</a>]

00:02:47   very funny fellow and as it turns out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/167">TS</a>]

00:02:49   remarkably nerdy which I I wasn't aware [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/169">TS</a>]

00:02:52   of that he wrote a piece and wired [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/172">TS</a>]

00:02:55   called wake up geek culture time to die [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/175">TS</a>]

00:02:57   which itself is a blade runner reference [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/177">TS</a>]

00:03:00   by the way and in it he talks about nerd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/180">TS</a>]

00:03:04   culture and how back in the day and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/184">TS</a>]

00:03:06   eighties he felt that he was part of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/186">TS</a>]

00:03:10   secret society who was able to shout out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/190">TS</a>]

00:03:12   Monty Python references and and Princess [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/192">TS</a>]

00:03:20   Dungeons and Dragons and and refer to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/200">TS</a>]

00:03:22   specific Star Trek episodes and was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/202">TS</a>]

00:03:24   reading not just the watchman but the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/204">TS</a>]

00:03:26   swamp thing run of alan moore that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/206">TS</a>]

00:03:28   preceded the watch men and how in this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/208">TS</a>]

00:03:32   day of Internet a knowledge and in many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/212">TS</a>]

00:03:37   ways a celebration of the culture that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/217">TS</a>]

00:03:38   this has been lost now some of what he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/218">TS</a>]

00:03:40   writes it's sort of silly but some of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/220">TS</a>]

00:03:43   i think is also very serious and and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/223">TS</a>]

00:03:46   will link to it in the show notes and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/226">TS</a>]

00:03:47   you might want to stop and read it and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/227">TS</a>]

00:03:49   then come back if you have that sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/229">TS</a>]

00:03:50   multitasking podcast person but so so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/230">TS</a>]

00:03:55   with that said I i wanted to start by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/235">TS</a>]

00:03:57   getting reactions to to what Patton [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/237">TS</a>]

00:04:01   Oswalt road and also maybe a little bit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/241">TS</a>]

00:04:03   about sort of your looking back on your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/243">TS</a>]

00:04:05   life and and how you kind of got [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/245">TS</a>]

00:04:07   immersed in more geeky pursuits [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/247">TS</a>]

00:04:09   Lisa I you you're the one who brought [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/249">TS</a>]

00:04:11   this to our attention you know where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/251">TS</a>]

00:04:13   would you like to start [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/253">TS</a>]

00:04:15   I i have to admit i'm a big patton [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/255">TS</a>]

00:04:17   oswalt family I have all of his albums i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/257">TS</a>]

00:04:19   read this essay right after I finished [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/259">TS</a>]

00:04:22   reading his books Dombey spaceship [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/262">TS</a>]

00:04:23   apocalypse and the premise of which can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/263">TS</a>]

00:04:26   you explain the zombie spaceship [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/266">TS</a>]

00:04:28   apocalypse premise there because it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/268">TS</a>]

00:04:31   seems pretty self-explanatory 10 there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/271">TS</a>]

00:04:33   are actually three separate concepts [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/273">TS</a>]

00:04:35   oh yeah you know as Walter Isaacson that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/275">TS</a>]

00:04:37   most fantasy and sci-fi folk can be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/277">TS</a>]

00:04:40   divided into one of three tribes those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/280">TS</a>]

00:04:42   who connect with zombie stories those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/282">TS</a>]

00:04:44   who connect with spaceship stories and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/284">TS</a>]

00:04:46   those who connect with the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/286">TS</a>]

00:04:47   post-apocalyptic landscape stories and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/287">TS</a>]

00:04:50   his premise is that how you connect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/290">TS</a>]

00:04:52   actually says a lot about you as a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/292">TS</a>]

00:04:53   person for example people who connect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/293">TS</a>]

00:04:55   with spaceships stories tend not to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/295">TS</a>]

00:04:57   very interested in solving problems [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/297">TS</a>]

00:04:59   where they are because they're like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/299">TS</a>]

00:05:00   screw this i'll just find another space [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/300">TS</a>]

00:05:01   system and in real life they tend to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/301">TS</a>]

00:05:04   pretty self-contained they tend to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/304">TS</a>]

00:05:05   prepared for everything because they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/305">TS</a>]

00:05:06   have that on a spaceship mentality and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/306">TS</a>]

00:05:09   he alleges that most comedians connect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/309">TS</a>]

00:05:12   with straight across the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/312">TS</a>]

00:05:13   post-apocalyptic landscape type [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/313">TS</a>]

00:05:15   scenarios because it's about the total [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/315">TS</a>]

00:05:17   disintegration chaos of society and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/317">TS</a>]

00:05:19   observing what comes next so he'd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/319">TS</a>]

00:05:21   already begun working on a sort of nerd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/321">TS</a>]

00:05:24   taxonomy and then this article came out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/324">TS</a>]

00:05:27   and I I see him sort of codifying his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/327">TS</a>]

00:05:30   argument even more and I think the thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/330">TS</a>]

00:05:33   that rubs me the wrong way is it's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/333">TS</a>]

00:05:37   nostalgia soaked piece in the sense oh I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/337">TS</a>]

00:05:39   was in to watch my back before it was a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/339">TS</a>]

00:05:41   byword for a spectacularly bad movie and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/341">TS</a>]

00:05:44   it's it's kind of doing the same thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/344">TS</a>]

00:05:50   that the social groups who really did [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/350">TS</a>]

00:05:52   ostracized ostracized nerds and geeks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/352">TS</a>]

00:05:54   did to us back in the eighties which is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/354">TS</a>]

00:05:55   it's creating a hierarchy putting people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/355">TS</a>]

00:05:57   in it and assigning value judgments to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/357">TS</a>]

00:05:59   it and its complaint as well you people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/359">TS</a>]

00:06:01   who are geeks today aren't geeky enough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/361">TS</a>]

00:06:02   because you don't have to work that hard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/362">TS</a>]

00:06:04   for the arcana but there's not a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/364">TS</a>]

00:06:06   commitment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/366">TS</a>]

00:06:07   yes exactly um I can remember going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/367">TS</a>]

00:06:10   virginia tech in 1990 and meeting up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/370">TS</a>]

00:06:12   with a group with a mutual friends group [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/372">TS</a>]

00:06:14   of friends who were huge into this the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/374">TS</a>]

00:06:17   this icon circuit and they had all of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/377">TS</a>]

00:06:19   these in jokes that you would know if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/379">TS</a>]

00:06:20   you had been attending Baltic on and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/380">TS</a>]

00:06:23   Dragon Con in the rest of the cons to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/383">TS</a>]

00:06:25   the eighties and somehow in order to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/385">TS</a>]

00:06:27   part of this group I was going to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/387">TS</a>]

00:06:29   to be expected to hunt down the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/389">TS</a>]

00:06:30   references and spend enough time around [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/390">TS</a>]

00:06:32   these people that could build a social [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/392">TS</a>]

00:06:33   capital to be included in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/393">TS</a>]

00:06:35   conversation and needless to say that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/395">TS</a>]

00:06:37   was like the first last time I hung out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/397">TS</a>]

00:06:39   with these folks but well I mean come on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/399">TS</a>]

00:06:42   uh it's just that the the notion that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/402">TS</a>]

00:06:45   you have to have some sort of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/405">TS</a>]

00:06:51   something i can see keeps coming up with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/411">TS</a>]

00:06:53   it is it's just an idea that rubs me the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/413">TS</a>]

00:06:54   wrong way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/414">TS</a>]

00:07:16   lets you run around with the people who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/436">TS</a>]

00:07:18   are always putting on coffin our place [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/438">TS</a>]

00:07:19   and I thought it's it's very typical of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/439">TS</a>]

00:07:24   people of a geeky orderly persuasion to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/444">TS</a>]

00:07:27   want to assign hierarchies because if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/447">TS</a>]

00:07:29   you take a look at the passions that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/449">TS</a>]

00:07:31   drive people like Dungeons and Dragons [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/451">TS</a>]

00:07:32   or comic book collecting or Star Wars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/452">TS</a>]

00:07:36   there there's part of the appeals is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/456">TS</a>]

00:07:38   this Universal internal consistent rules [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/458">TS</a>]

00:07:40   apply to make order of it so it's an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/460">TS</a>]

00:07:42   understandable impulse I just think it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/462">TS</a>]

00:07:43   reprehensible when it comes to human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/463">TS</a>]

00:07:44   nature and it also seems to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/464">TS</a>]

00:07:48   remarkably unselfconscious when you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/468">TS</a>]

00:07:52   come on the part of being a geek or nerd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/472">TS</a>]

00:07:54   was you had a degree of ostracize ation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/474">TS</a>]

00:07:58   which led you to observe other social [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/478">TS</a>]

00:08:01   groups and see how they function so why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/481">TS</a>]

00:08:03   aren't you turning that on to your own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/483">TS</a>]

00:08:05   little rules and structures what is what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/485">TS</a>]

00:08:08   seems to be saying is that the reason [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/488">TS</a>]

00:08:09   that that people got into these kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/489">TS</a>]

00:08:12   key topics because they were not really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/492">TS</a>]

00:08:15   discussed and widely known and and i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/495">TS</a>]

00:08:18   read that and thought that I don't think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/498">TS</a>]

00:08:19   that's the case at all i think that I i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/499">TS</a>]

00:08:21   think it was the reverse I think that I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/501">TS</a>]

00:08:23   was interested in things that were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/503">TS</a>]

00:08:25   narrower than than what other people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/505">TS</a>]

00:08:27   were interested in not because they were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/507">TS</a>]

00:08:29   narrow but be just because I I i like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/509">TS</a>]

00:08:31   them so my question is you know it do we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/511">TS</a>]

00:08:33   like reading about you know hearing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/513">TS</a>]

00:08:36   stories about about people on spaceships [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/516">TS</a>]

00:08:38   are on other planets because we're where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/518">TS</a>]

00:08:40   you know we want to be separate from the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/520">TS</a>]

00:08:42   crowd or just because we like that extra [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/522">TS</a>]

00:08:45   layer of kind of imagination that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/525">TS</a>]

00:08:47   something like sci-fi or fantasy can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/527">TS</a>]

00:08:50   give us that some stuff that's more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/530">TS</a>]

00:08:52   literal wouldn't give us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/532">TS</a>]

00:08:53   I don't think patent was saying that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/533">TS</a>]

00:08:56   like them because they're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/536">TS</a>]

00:08:58   are there narrow his the beginning part [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/538">TS</a>]

00:09:02   of that sa was all tangled up into these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/542">TS</a>]

00:09:04   these poorly supported most the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/544">TS</a>]

00:09:06   conclusions that I totally disagree with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/546">TS</a>]

00:09:08   a minute veered off into this comedy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/548">TS</a>]

00:09:10   thing so it's hard to it's hard to get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/550">TS</a>]

00:09:12   it what he was like trying to say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/552">TS</a>]

00:09:14   because he'd go from one party to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/554">TS</a>]

00:09:16   next you just throw something out there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/556">TS</a>]

00:09:17   completely unsupported just you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/557">TS</a>]

00:09:19   saying it as if it's a fact then move on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/559">TS</a>]

00:09:21   to his next point and almost all those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/561">TS</a>]

00:09:23   points early works better spoken in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/563">TS</a>]

00:09:25   stand-up routine i would think yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/565">TS</a>]

00:09:26   because then you can laugh and he but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/566">TS</a>]

00:09:28   you know if you think about any of them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/568">TS</a>]

00:09:30   out sticking and that you can sink into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/570">TS</a>]

00:09:31   the rhythm and make center and you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/571">TS</a>]

00:09:33   saying like you know is it because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/573">TS</a>]

00:09:35   they're narrow you're trying to examine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/575">TS</a>]

00:09:37   his earlier argument as if they're there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/577">TS</a>]

00:09:38   logically constructed and try to think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/578">TS</a>]

00:09:40   of some sort of underlying he might have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/580">TS</a>]

00:09:43   and I think there's a decent argument [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/583">TS</a>]

00:09:44   here which is you know d is nerd culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/584">TS</a>]

00:09:47   exciting because it gives the Nerds [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/587">TS</a>]

00:09:50   something that only they know that that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/590">TS</a>]

00:09:52   all the other people don't know or is it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/592">TS</a>]

00:09:54   just the way it is because that's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/594">TS</a>]

00:09:56   stuff that being nerdy being geeky means [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/596">TS</a>]

00:09:58   you were interested in in in these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/598">TS</a>]

00:10:01   things you know just because you are it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/601">TS</a>]

00:10:03   has nothing to do with excluding other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/603">TS</a>]

00:10:04   people i think it's a little bit i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/604">TS</a>]

00:10:07   it's a little more a little more dire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/607">TS</a>]

00:10:09   than that and that i think the people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/609">TS</a>]

00:10:11   who are geeks in high school are the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/611">TS</a>]

00:10:14   people who are who don't have the tools [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/614">TS</a>]

00:10:16   or are not successful at the the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/616">TS</a>]

00:10:21   social game that sort of defines high [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/621">TS</a>]

00:10:23   school right and for whatever reason [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/623">TS</a>]

00:10:25   they're just you know they're shy there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/625">TS</a>]

00:10:28   they're awkward they're they're insecure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/628">TS</a>]

00:10:30   they have some sort of problem that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/630">TS</a>]

00:10:31   keeps them out of the larger social game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/631">TS</a>]

00:10:33   that's that the the norm right and i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/633">TS</a>]

00:10:37   think once you're out of that game you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/637">TS</a>]

00:10:38   need to find something else to to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/638">TS</a>]

00:10:42   accelerator to be interested in you just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/642">TS</a>]

00:10:43   have more time for other things now I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/643">TS</a>]

00:10:45   say that because i think that the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/645">TS</a>]

00:10:48   love for things the geeks like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/648">TS</a>]

00:10:49   spaceships robots you know fantasy novel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/649">TS</a>]

00:10:53   stuff like that that stuff is if I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/653">TS</a>]

00:10:57   pretty much evenly distributed across [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/657">TS</a>]

00:10:58   all kids of that age I believe but it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/658">TS</a>]

00:11:01   only manifests in the people who are who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/661">TS</a>]

00:11:04   don't do well in the social structure of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/664">TS</a>]

00:11:07   of that that time period of their lives [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/667">TS</a>]

00:11:09   and they you know dive right into ahead [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/669">TS</a>]

00:11:11   for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/671">TS</a>]

00:11:12   just and and that ties back into the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/672">TS</a>]

00:11:13   panel's thing always talks about the the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/673">TS</a>]

00:11:15   dude in the gym who's got the above that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/675">TS</a>]

00:11:17   thing on his sleeve is lifting weights [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/677">TS</a>]

00:11:19   and he was the jock who is you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/679">TS</a>]

00:11:20   beating up on high school but now he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/680">TS</a>]

00:11:22   thinks he can co-opt both that an actual [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/682">TS</a>]

00:11:24   he's cool [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/684">TS</a>]

00:11:25   I think he liked both it just as much as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/685">TS</a>]

00:11:26   you did he just wasn't is dedicated and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/686">TS</a>]

00:11:29   obsessed right in in high school and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/689">TS</a>]

00:11:32   that's what I think it is i don't think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/692">TS</a>]

00:11:34   it has to do with were more interested [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/694">TS</a>]

00:11:36   in these topics and other people you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/696">TS</a>]

00:11:37   know obviously this visit i could hit a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/697">TS</a>]

00:11:38   spectrum there is just that it we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/698">TS</a>]

00:11:41   dedicated ourselves more to it because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/701">TS</a>]

00:11:43   we didn't have other things to dedicate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/703">TS</a>]

00:11:45   ourselves to with that sports or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/705">TS</a>]

00:11:46   relationships or anything like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/706">TS</a>]

00:11:48   they're so so this is the thing that we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/708">TS</a>]

00:11:49   could master whereas somebody else might [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/709">TS</a>]

00:11:52   just think it was cool I i do i really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/712">TS</a>]

00:11:54   like what you said there because i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/714">TS</a>]

00:11:57   that there's truth in that that you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/717">TS</a>]

00:11:59   it's not that this stuff wasn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/719">TS</a>]

00:12:00   appreciated by lots of people I really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/720">TS</a>]

00:12:02   refute the idea i'm not sure if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/722">TS</a>]

00:12:05   anybody's actually made this accusation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/725">TS</a>]

00:12:06   but i felt a little of it coming from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/726">TS</a>]

00:12:07   Oswalt that that the reason people like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/727">TS</a>]

00:12:10   stories about spaceships or or or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/730">TS</a>]

00:12:12   fantasy realms is because they've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/732">TS</a>]

00:12:14   decided to retreat from reality and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/734">TS</a>]

00:12:16   that's the only reason you'd like them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/736">TS</a>]

00:12:18   is because you're an outcast which just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/738">TS</a>]

00:12:19   like no wrong or you like them because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/739">TS</a>]

00:12:21   they're because they're narrowly I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/741">TS</a>]

00:12:23   if anything geeks to meet these geeks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/743">TS</a>]

00:12:25   wanted to be part of the group why would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/745">TS</a>]

00:12:27   they seek out something that took them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/747">TS</a>]

00:12:28   away from the group you know they were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/748">TS</a>]

00:12:29   to this just means that's just not the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/749">TS</a>]

00:12:31   impulse you know there they were looking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/751">TS</a>]

00:12:32   for any other kid who played the india [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/752">TS</a>]

00:12:34   with them in honey you know I I i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/754">TS</a>]

00:12:37   i was just completely clueless when I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/757">TS</a>]

00:12:39   think back to high school but when I put [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/759">TS</a>]

00:12:40   on that glow in the dark doctor who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/760">TS</a>]

00:12:42   shirt I was just like I thought it was I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/762">TS</a>]

00:12:44   didn't think it was cool it's just I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/764">TS</a>]

00:12:46   liked it and so I wore it and i think if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/766">TS</a>]

00:12:48   i had been more aware of how to build up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/768">TS</a>]

00:12:52   some more social standing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/772">TS</a>]

00:12:54   I would have known that that was a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/774">TS</a>]

00:12:55   really bad idea and I figured that out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/775">TS</a>]

00:12:57   much later denied all knowledge of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/777">TS</a>]

00:13:01   it's likely that you're bad you're not a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/781">TS</a>]

00:13:03   second you were not able to successfully [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/783">TS</a>]

00:13:04   navigate the social structure of high [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/784">TS</a>]

00:13:06   school for whatever reason you know you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/786">TS</a>]

00:13:08   just didn't have until they clicked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/788">TS</a>]

00:13:10   right but right so it was almost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/790">TS</a>]

00:13:11   cluelessness more than anything else I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/791">TS</a>]

00:13:12   didn't was like well I can master Doctor [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/792">TS</a>]

00:13:15   Who because nobody else will have me it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/795">TS</a>]

00:13:16   was more like I just I was like oh this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/796">TS</a>]

00:13:18   is cool not aware that it was so not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/798">TS</a>]

00:13:20   cool [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/800">TS</a>]

00:13:21   so it and if you have found other doctor [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/801">TS</a>]

00:13:25   you about Doctor Who I love it I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/805">TS</a>]

00:13:26   you'll love it too and that you know you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/806">TS</a>]

00:13:28   wouldn't like heart jealously as if you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/808">TS</a>]

00:13:29   here we want like no you can't know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/809">TS</a>]

00:13:31   about doc Oh God let me tell you John [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/811">TS</a>]

00:13:35   there was another doctor who fan in my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/815">TS</a>]

00:13:37   high school and os was it your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/817">TS</a>]

00:13:40   arch-nemesis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/820">TS</a>]

00:13:41   no no he was the geekiest person at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/821">TS</a>]

00:13:43   high school he oh my god he was your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/823">TS</a>]

00:13:47   stereotypical a geeky guy nerdy guy he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/827">TS</a>]

00:13:50   kind of couldn't talk to people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/830">TS</a>]

00:13:52   hehe was super super like science guy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/832">TS</a>]

00:13:56   and he will actually wore he wore the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/836">TS</a>]

00:13:58   Tom Baker scarf around all the time and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/838">TS</a>]

00:14:03   and even I knew that was a faux pas [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/843">TS</a>]

00:14:05   socially so i couldn't i I couldn't bear [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/845">TS</a>]

00:14:07   to have any sort of alliance with him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/847">TS</a>]

00:14:09   even though he was kind of a kid's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/849">TS</a>]

00:14:11   kindred spirit and we occasionally he'd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/851">TS</a>]

00:14:13   be like oh you like Doctor Who to like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/853">TS</a>]

00:14:14   uh yeah I got a thing I gotta go because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/854">TS</a>]

00:14:18   he was so far out there so I I feel bad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/858">TS</a>]

00:14:21   about it now but he was just like no no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/861">TS</a>]

00:14:22   that way lies madness so but it wasn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/862">TS</a>]

00:14:26   because you felt like now that another [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/866">TS</a>]

00:14:28   person interested in it lessens the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/868">TS</a>]

00:14:29   attraction of Doctor Who to me it didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/869">TS</a>]

00:14:31   affect your attractive doctor who at all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/871">TS</a>]

00:14:33   no sadly did there was actually kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/873">TS</a>]

00:14:35   a dividing line between geek experiences [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/875">TS</a>]

00:14:37   in high school versus college [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/877">TS</a>]

00:14:39   we're in high school I i agree with John [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/879">TS</a>]

00:14:43   that some of some of the the the geek [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/883">TS</a>]

00:14:47   set as it were if you have to put the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/887">TS</a>]

00:14:48   parentheses around certainly comes from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/888">TS</a>]

00:14:50   not being able to navigate high school's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/890">TS</a>]

00:14:51   rules and structures which I want to add [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/891">TS</a>]

00:14:55   is not necessarily a bad thing but in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/895">TS</a>]

00:14:59   college I noticed a lot of geeks were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/899">TS</a>]

00:15:01   very very rigorous about reinforcing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/901">TS</a>]

00:15:03   what they thought the parameters and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/903">TS</a>]

00:15:04   boundaries of geek culture were and they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/904">TS</a>]

00:15:06   were very quick to throw you out of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/906">TS</a>]

00:15:07   or call you as a fraud if you couldn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/907">TS</a>]

00:15:10   keep up with the code [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/910">TS</a>]

00:15:13   um there's you couldn't quote the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/913">TS</a>]

00:15:16   princess bride with the group that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/916">TS</a>]

00:15:17   were if you can answer Monty Python [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/917">TS</a>]

00:15:19   quote with a corresponding quote or if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/919">TS</a>]

00:15:22   you couldn't keep track of whether that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/922">TS</a>]

00:15:23   Jean Grey was alive or dead on a given [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/923">TS</a>]

00:15:25   day up which is hard you for Furyk for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/925">TS</a>]

00:15:28   example in high school the guy who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/928">TS</a>]

00:15:30   passed me elfquest comic books in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/930">TS</a>]

00:15:32   English class was also the school pot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/932">TS</a>]

00:15:35   dealer so he kind of move back and forth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/935">TS</a>]

00:15:37   between always [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/937">TS</a>]

00:15:37   different interests so he could you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/937">TS</a>]

00:15:39   could get your own you can hook you up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/939">TS</a>]

00:15:40   with health quest or with pop well if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/940">TS</a>]

00:15:42   you really like elfquest I I have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/942">TS</a>]

00:15:44   something there is a little bit of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/944">TS</a>]

00:15:45   chemical you gonna say I'm gonna say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/945">TS</a>]

00:15:48   it's hard to say which one of those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/948">TS</a>]

00:15:49   things worse [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/949">TS</a>]

00:15:50   actually if you smoke the pot the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/950">TS</a>]

00:15:52   HealthQuest gasps colors and that is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/952">TS</a>]

00:15:54   comic that makes a lot more sense like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/954">TS</a>]

00:15:56   the hair dissolving sudden start to come [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/956">TS</a>]

00:15:57   together whereas again in college and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/957">TS</a>]

00:16:02   again this at people who were in Society [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/962">TS</a>]

00:16:04   for Creative Anachronism would have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/964">TS</a>]

00:16:05   never ever been caught dead hanging with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/965">TS</a>]

00:16:08   the people who are doing homegrown [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/968">TS</a>]

00:16:09   pharmaceuticals and again you have the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/969">TS</a>]

00:16:11   Conn crowd which would darkly Lou 20 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/971">TS</a>]

00:16:14   that thing Harlan Ellison did back in 86 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/974">TS</a>]

00:16:16   and all cackle and then look at you like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/976">TS</a>]

00:16:17   you're supposed to say yes it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/977">TS</a>]

00:16:19   terrible when you could not have given [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/979">TS</a>]

00:16:21   two graphs with Harlan also have done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/981">TS</a>]

00:16:23   back in 1986 and senses Harlan Ellison [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/983">TS</a>]

00:16:25   the list is long so it's it's the idea [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/985">TS</a>]

00:16:30   it as well refers to so talking words [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/990">TS</a>]

00:16:33   out since our little world and people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/993">TS</a>]

00:16:34   that can roll around the minutiae and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/994">TS</a>]

00:16:36   you really master a subject in Johnson's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/996">TS</a>]

00:16:38   well yeah that's because you really have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/998">TS</a>]

00:16:40   nothing else going on and I thought well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1000">TS</a>]

00:16:41   maybe it's kind of a form of of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1001">TS</a>]

00:16:43   hostility where you're like oh you've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1003">TS</a>]

00:16:44   excluded me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1004">TS</a>]

00:16:45   well i'm just going to just to show you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1005">TS</a>]

00:16:47   i'm going to master elvish and write [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1007">TS</a>]

00:16:49   long saugus about how much you suck in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1009">TS</a>]

00:16:51   elevation it is a hospital with your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1011">TS</a>]

00:16:53   references to or is it I mean I since [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1013">TS</a>]

00:16:57   I've got this defensive pneus I've gotta [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1017">TS</a>]

00:16:59   you know I've got to I've got two little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1019">TS</a>]

00:17:01   kids you know you get kids kids kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1021">TS</a>]

00:17:03   want to master something and and I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1023">TS</a>]

00:17:05   some of it is that you know if if your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1025">TS</a>]

00:17:08   world is kind of not understandable you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1028">TS</a>]

00:17:11   know as a kid you might you might [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1031">TS</a>]

00:17:12   memorize 13 work around it is yeah all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1032">TS</a>]

00:17:14   the kind of training or all the cuts [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1034">TS</a>]

00:17:16   Star Wars cards or you know you can pick [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1036">TS</a>]

00:17:18   it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1038">TS</a>]

00:17:18   it's like as a kid you don't just one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1038">TS</a>]

00:17:20   moment is so popular is because exact [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1040">TS</a>]

00:17:22   yeah my pokemon so popular is because as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1042">TS</a>]

00:17:24   a child you can figure out okay this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1044">TS</a>]

00:17:26   that classification system right this is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1046">TS</a>]

00:17:27   part of the world i can understand these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1047">TS</a>]

00:17:29   are the rules this all makes sense that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1049">TS</a>]

00:17:31   we can a master at this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1051">TS</a>]

00:17:32   yeah yeah yeah I think that's what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1052">TS</a>]

00:17:34   drives sort of that kind of kiki drive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1054">TS</a>]

00:17:36   to to do that is sort of like to make [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1056">TS</a>]

00:17:38   save something and have some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1058">TS</a>]

00:17:39   understanding and control over it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1059">TS</a>]

00:17:41   my main problem with this whole idea of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1061">TS</a>]

00:17:44   geek culture is that it is somehow [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1064">TS</a>]

00:17:46   separate from normal culture right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1066">TS</a>]

00:17:48   because people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1068">TS</a>]

00:17:50   are obsessed with a variety of things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1070">TS</a>]

00:17:52   well that's what also wants that's right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1072">TS</a>]

00:17:53   he says you know but people are geeking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1073">TS</a>]

00:17:54   out over that Real Housewives of Beverly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1074">TS</a>]

00:17:56   Hills you know that married to a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1076">TS</a>]

00:17:58   baseball not exact and I think you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1078">TS</a>]

00:17:59   I think that so a lot of geek culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1079">TS</a>]

00:18:02   depends on technology and the written [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1082">TS</a>]

00:18:06   word which is a form of Technology right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1086">TS</a>]

00:18:08   and so the only reason and I'm just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1088">TS</a>]

00:18:10   thinking of this right now since make [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1090">TS</a>]

00:18:11   absolutely no sense but i think the only [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1091">TS</a>]

00:18:13   reason that Sports is not considered [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1093">TS</a>]

00:18:16   geeky is because people have been doing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1096">TS</a>]

00:18:18   it for so much longer so it's just part [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1098">TS</a>]

00:18:21   of the culture and it's okay to like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1101">TS</a>]

00:18:23   sports because we've been doing it since [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1103">TS</a>]

00:18:26   humans have been you know cognizant of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1106">TS</a>]

00:18:28   being humans because you know you're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1108">TS</a>]

00:18:30   running from a tiger something that then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1110">TS</a>]

00:18:32   becomes a an event that's playing sports [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1112">TS</a>]

00:18:35   not being a sports fan no I saw an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1115">TS</a>]

00:18:37   interview with the woman who who got in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1117">TS</a>]

00:18:41   the news because she wanted to wear her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1121">TS</a>]

00:18:42   star trek uniform too when she was on a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1122">TS</a>]

00:18:44   jury [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1124">TS</a>]

00:18:45   I saw it and and what she made a point [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1125">TS</a>]

00:18:47   that i have not been able to refute [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1127">TS</a>]

00:18:49   which is why is it weird for me where my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1129">TS</a>]

00:18:51   star trek uniform but it's not weird for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1131">TS</a>]

00:18:52   a guy to wear a baseball team or a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1132">TS</a>]

00:18:54   football team uniform to a baseball game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1134">TS</a>]

00:18:56   and it's like well you know I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1136">TS</a>]

00:18:58   she's got a point there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1138">TS</a>]

00:19:00   it's true that's why i'm so confused [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1140">TS</a>]

00:19:02   like let's take baseball for example not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1142">TS</a>]

00:19:04   to you know ostracize any particular [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1144">TS</a>]

00:19:06   numbers of this podcast but I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1146">TS</a>]

00:19:08   baseball is probably the creepiest sport [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1148">TS</a>]

00:19:11   oh yeah the world it is right because I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1151">TS</a>]

00:19:13   yeah it's absolutely it's incredibly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1153">TS</a>]

00:19:14   boring it's in there are people who are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1154">TS</a>]

00:19:17   not very athletic [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1157">TS</a>]

00:19:19   it's like a man or get exactly and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1159">TS</a>]

00:19:21   all the fans fans are obsessed with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1161">TS</a>]

00:19:23   statistics that you can't get geekier [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1163">TS</a>]

00:19:25   than that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1165">TS</a>]

00:19:26   yeah well that's that's that's why i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1166">TS</a>]

00:19:28   tell it not to take a little tiny peek [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1168">TS</a>]

00:19:31   into Lisa's private life but Lisa is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1171">TS</a>]

00:19:33   member of a comic book club and you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1173">TS</a>]

00:19:35   she goes cheap she will haunt local [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1175">TS</a>]

00:19:37   comic book stores and her husband [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1177">TS</a>]

00:19:38   couldn't know the Floyd he does now know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1178">TS</a>]

00:19:41   more about comic books because his wife [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1181">TS</a>]

00:19:42   has has taught him well but not you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1182">TS</a>]

00:19:45   and so you can have that moment of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1185">TS</a>]

00:19:47   offense it's like why there aren't that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1187">TS</a>]

00:19:48   many women who appreciate comics and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1188">TS</a>]

00:19:50   this guy he's not worth but you know her [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1190">TS</a>]

00:19:52   Lisa's husband loves baseball and that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1192">TS</a>]

00:19:54   one of the things that he does have kind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1194">TS</a>]

00:19:56   of geeky street just runs two different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1196">TS</a>]

00:19:58   things and you could argue that baseball [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1198">TS</a>]

00:20:00   his appreciation for baseball is really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1200">TS</a>]

00:20:02   no different that leases [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1202">TS</a>]

00:20:03   appreciation for comic books although [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1203">TS</a>]

00:20:05   i'm sure he would beat me up and now I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1205">TS</a>]

00:20:06   told him that actually now I think we've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1206">TS</a>]

00:20:09   actually come to the agreement that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1209">TS</a>]

00:20:11   they're pretty parallel and I've also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1211">TS</a>]

00:20:13   known people who have managed to have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1213">TS</a>]

00:20:15   for lack of a better word parallel geeky [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1215">TS</a>]

00:20:17   passions for example my brother who also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1217">TS</a>]

00:20:20   has a comics podcast strangely enough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1220">TS</a>]

00:20:25   passionate about dr. so my brother isn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1225">TS</a>]

00:20:30   it is a vagner opera teak as well as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1230">TS</a>]

00:20:32   being a massive geek about the flash [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1232">TS</a>]

00:20:35   series of DC comment on how hard it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1235">TS</a>]

00:20:36   would be to get into that into that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1236">TS</a>]

00:20:38   little little circle the bogner circle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1238">TS</a>]

00:20:41   you say one wrong thing to the Brahms [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1241">TS</a>]

00:20:50   that that's a whole that's a whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1250">TS</a>]

00:20:52   different game I mean yeah I i am [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1252">TS</a>]

00:20:54   humbled world amateur now consider if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1254">TS</a>]

00:20:56   the class is equal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1256">TS</a>]

00:20:59   oh we are so so what raw what led me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1259">TS</a>]

00:21:02   because they think they talk about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1262">TS</a>]

00:21:04   things that happened in the eighteen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1264">TS</a>]

00:21:05   hundreds like it was yesterday [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1265">TS</a>]

00:21:06   it's amazing it's a fascinating [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1266">TS</a>]

00:21:08   subculture one of the things that Patton [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1268">TS</a>]

00:21:10   Oswalt talks about that i think i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1270">TS</a>]

00:21:12   is an interesting point which is you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1272">TS</a>]

00:21:15   know when you're in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1275">TS</a>]

00:21:16   I mean we all we grew up in very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1276">TS</a>]

00:21:17   different environments and you know East [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1277">TS</a>]

00:21:19   Coast and West Coast and big cities and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1279">TS</a>]

00:21:21   small towns and but one thing that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1281">TS</a>]

00:21:25   Internet has done is eliminated the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1285">TS</a>]

00:21:28   sense that you are the only or one of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1288">TS</a>]

00:21:31   small group of people who who is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1291">TS</a>]

00:21:33   interested in anything right there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1293">TS</a>]

00:21:37   what used to be it's just me or it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1297">TS</a>]

00:21:39   just two or three people you go on the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1299">TS</a>]

00:21:41   internet now and you realize it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1301">TS</a>]

00:21:42   just you it's you and like a thousand or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1302">TS</a>]

00:21:45   ten thousand other people which you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1305">TS</a>]

00:21:48   I I do feel like Oswalt's right when he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1308">TS</a>]

00:21:50   says you know will never again have that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1310">TS</a>]

00:21:52   feeling of kind of like near isolation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1312">TS</a>]

00:21:54   that I discovered this thing because now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1314">TS</a>]

00:21:56   you can go out there and get the faq [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1316">TS</a>]

00:21:58   that tells you everything you need to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1318">TS</a>]

00:21:59   know about that thing and a mailing list [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1319">TS</a>]

00:22:02   that's got 10,000 people on that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1322">TS</a>]

00:22:04   isolation is a bad thing though I agree [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1324">TS</a>]

00:22:06   the isolation is bad i mean that that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1326">TS</a>]

00:22:08   what spawned those groups that are so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1328">TS</a>]

00:22:09   hostile to outsiders because if you go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1329">TS</a>]

00:22:11   through that experience where where it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1331">TS</a>]

00:22:13   where you're ostracized in high school [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1333">TS</a>]

00:22:15   and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1335">TS</a>]

00:22:15   you have and you get a chip on your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1335">TS</a>]

00:22:17   shoulder that when you finally meet up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1337">TS</a>]

00:22:18   with more like people in college you'd [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1338">TS</a>]

00:22:21   be more inclined to make an exclusive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1341">TS</a>]

00:22:23   group that is hostile to outsiders and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1343">TS</a>]

00:22:25   so on and so forth I think the Internet [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1345">TS</a>]

00:22:26   is breeding a that's why did you hear ya [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1346">TS</a>]

00:22:29   series of geeks I think the geeks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1349">TS</a>]

00:22:31   they're growing up today i have the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1351">TS</a>]

00:22:32   benefit of not having that horrible [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1352">TS</a>]

00:22:34   experience because they don't have they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1354">TS</a>]

00:22:36   could never even imagine that there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1356">TS</a>]

00:22:38   alone and that by the time they get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1358">TS</a>]

00:22:40   older they won't have that you know sort [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1360">TS</a>]

00:22:41   of chip on their shoulders they want to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1361">TS</a>]

00:22:43   seek out revenge or exclude people the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1363">TS</a>]

00:22:45   way they were excluded and that's why I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1365">TS</a>]

00:22:46   think you see geek culture spreading so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1366">TS</a>]

00:22:47   much because people who are growing up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1367">TS</a>]

00:22:49   in the age of the Internet don't have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1369">TS</a>]

00:22:50   these problems and it becomes more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1370">TS</a>]

00:22:52   normal everybody plays video games of if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1372">TS</a>]

00:22:54   we have I should put in the show notes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1374">TS</a>]

00:22:55   for this the penny arcade strip was it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1375">TS</a>]

00:22:58   way back 2001 where they did a strip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1378">TS</a>]

00:23:00   about adds to the original playstation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1380">TS</a>]

00:23:01   and the ads were advertising to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1381">TS</a>]

00:23:04   basically look like you know a hip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1384">TS</a>]

00:23:07   happening good looking teenagers the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1387">TS</a>]

00:23:08   people that who actual video gamers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1388">TS</a>]

00:23:10   hated and that's Tony was advertising to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1390">TS</a>]

00:23:12   me the games were going mainstream and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1392">TS</a>]

00:23:14   they have a problem that's what like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1394">TS</a>]

00:23:15   wait a second these guys weren't you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1395">TS</a>]

00:23:17   know playing nes in the basement with me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1397">TS</a>]

00:23:19   they were out playing football why do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1399">TS</a>]

00:23:20   they get to be part of games well that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1400">TS</a>]

00:23:22   sort of democratization of geek culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1402">TS</a>]

00:23:26   I think we'll it is as a result of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1406">TS</a>]

00:23:30   becoming clear that this is not you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1410">TS</a>]

00:23:32   and just think it's kind of like when [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1412">TS</a>]

00:23:34   you have all these little islands of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1414">TS</a>]

00:23:35   people who are you know if their own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1415">TS</a>]

00:23:37   geeks in their own high schools they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1417">TS</a>]

00:23:38   could imagine that they were the only [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1418">TS</a>]

00:23:39   ones but once you start connecting those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1419">TS</a>]

00:23:41   people they sort of like a look around [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1421">TS</a>]

00:23:43   and see each other and rise up you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1423">TS</a>]

00:23:45   it's like a rebel forces kept separate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1425">TS</a>]

00:23:47   once they're joined together you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1427">TS</a>]

00:23:48   they cannot go here and do something as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1428">TS</a>]

00:23:50   a group bicker amongst each other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1430">TS</a>]

00:23:53   yeah well you know that that's part of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1433">TS</a>]

00:23:55   it but that's I mean people arguing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1435">TS</a>]

00:23:56   about you know jets vs giants or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1436">TS</a>]

00:23:58   whatever you know in your high school [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1438">TS</a>]

00:23:59   the entire time you're there sports [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1439">TS</a>]

00:24:01   teams constant struggle that but no one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1441">TS</a>]

00:24:03   is arguing over you know a DD vs AD&D [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1443">TS</a>]

00:24:05   except for you and your two friends [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1445">TS</a>]

00:24:07   right yeah well not my high school but I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1447">TS</a>]

00:24:09   went to an incredibly key high school so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1449">TS</a>]

00:24:11   yeah they really thought I was gonna say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1451">TS</a>]

00:24:13   that the beginning really does depend on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1453">TS</a>]

00:24:15   where you've grown up because I've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1455">TS</a>]

00:24:15   talked to a lot of people and the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1455">TS</a>]

00:24:17   experience varies wildly some people go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1457">TS</a>]

00:24:19   to like you know schools for gifted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1459">TS</a>]

00:24:21   children where everybody's playing D&D [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1461">TS</a>]

00:24:22   and you know it's it's not a big deal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1462">TS</a>]

00:24:24   and something that other people like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1464">TS</a>]

00:24:26   they're the one guy in Idaho [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1466">TS</a>]

00:24:27   who's ever heard of dnd and I i was i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1467">TS</a>]

00:24:30   was saying as I was listening to our our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1470">TS</a>]

00:26:02   should because honestly because honestly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1562">TS</a>]

00:26:05   it should have been you've got a group [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1565">TS</a>]

00:26:06   of people who are underwater for three [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1566">TS</a>]

00:26:14   family with ranking capriciousness as so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1574">TS</a>]

00:26:17   you know why not give them the cake pops [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1577">TS</a>]

00:26:19   and work on that I mean because it gets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1579">TS</a>]

00:26:22   boring down there and these guys like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1582">TS</a>]

00:26:24   being able to have the the games that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1584">TS</a>]

00:26:26   both instructions provided the room for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1586">TS</a>]

00:26:27   improvisation it's like it was like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1587">TS</a>]

00:26:29   perfect marriage of a entertainment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1589">TS</a>]

00:26:31   audience i do think that the that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1591">TS</a>]

00:26:35   the democratization of geek culture is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1595">TS</a>]

00:26:37   good thing I mean you look at something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1597">TS</a>]

00:26:38   like comic-con [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1598">TS</a>]

00:26:39   that began as as a very niche thing and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1599">TS</a>]

00:26:42   you know what is comic-con now I want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1602">TS</a>]

00:26:44   first time she okay yeah well for the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1604">TS</a>]

00:26:46   first time last year and it's it's you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1606">TS</a>]

00:26:48   know a little bit on the geeky side and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1608">TS</a>]

00:26:49   you still got your your areas that are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1609">TS</a>]

00:26:51   comics focus but you know they're there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1611">TS</a>]

00:26:53   are people cast members from TV shows [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1613">TS</a>]

00:26:55   that have no even remote connection to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1615">TS</a>]

00:26:58   get culture who were there and and but i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1618">TS</a>]

00:27:01   think it's a good thing that the fact [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1621">TS</a>]

00:27:03   that the entertainment weekly does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1623">TS</a>]

00:27:04   stories about things that are happening [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1624">TS</a>]

00:27:05   in comics you know the fact is star wars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1625">TS</a>]

00:27:09   changed I think the way our culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1629">TS</a>]

00:27:13   views science fiction we can argue about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1633">TS</a>]

00:27:15   the the pros and cons of Star Wars Star [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1635">TS</a>]

00:27:18   Wars isn't like serious science fiction [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1638">TS</a>]

00:27:19   that you read a novel but the fact is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1639">TS</a>]

00:27:21   now every summer blockbuster basically [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1641">TS</a>]

00:27:24   is sci-fi or or a superhero or fantasy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1644">TS</a>]

00:27:29   or something like that and and it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1649">TS</a>]

00:27:32   changed the way that the general culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1652">TS</a>]

00:27:34   of use those kind of stories it's no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1654">TS</a>]

00:27:35   longer you know it's not to say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1655">TS</a>]

00:27:38   everybody's rushing out and buying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1658">TS</a>]

00:27:39   serious sci-fi novels but it's it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1659">TS</a>]

00:27:42   changed you know it's changed the way we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1662">TS</a>]

00:27:44   view that kind of genre because it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1664">TS</a>]

00:27:46   then it is the genre 44 film if not for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1666">TS</a>]

00:27:49   TV and books it is for film i wonder how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1669">TS</a>]

00:27:52   much that has to do with what we're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1672">TS</a>]

00:27:55   still grappling with the fact that the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1675">TS</a>]

00:27:57   American frontier is closed in a way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1677">TS</a>]

00:27:59   because when you think about it if you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1679">TS</a>]

00:28:03   look at the trajectory of of popular [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1683">TS</a>]

00:28:05   attitudes over the 20th century at the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1685">TS</a>]

00:28:06   very beginning of the 20th century one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1686">TS</a>]

00:28:08   of the American identity crisis was the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1688">TS</a>]

00:28:10   fact that there were no more territories [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1690">TS</a>]

00:28:12   to homestead and and the frontier was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1692">TS</a>]

00:28:14   closed we hit the Pacific you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1694">TS</a>]

00:28:16   Alaska most was already more Alaska was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1696">TS</a>]

00:28:20   basically the end of the line as it were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1700">TS</a>]

00:28:21   and there was a wave of popular culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1701">TS</a>]

00:28:24   that lasted throughout the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1704">TS</a>]

00:28:25   nineteen-thirties where people were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1705">TS</a>]

00:28:26   trying to figure out what it meant is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1706">TS</a>]

00:28:28   the country once you literally ran out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1708">TS</a>]

00:28:30   of room to explore [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1710">TS</a>]

00:28:31   and in a way outer space especially from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1711">TS</a>]

00:28:35   the fifties on outer space provided a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1715">TS</a>]

00:28:37   way for us to take that urge for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1717">TS</a>]

00:28:40   frontier exploration and conquest and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1720">TS</a>]

00:28:42   cast a wider and I wonder how much of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1722">TS</a>]

00:28:45   that we're still feeling because we're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1725">TS</a>]

00:28:47   such a small and interconnected world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1727">TS</a>]

00:28:49   right now thanks to the internet and it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1729">TS</a>]

00:28:51   does feel like it's a it does feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1731">TS</a>]

00:28:53   a tiny planet in many ways I mean we can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1733">TS</a>]

00:28:55   all look at protests going on in Libya [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1735">TS</a>]

00:28:57   in ways that would have been just a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1737">TS</a>]

00:29:00   5-minute sniff it on the news even 20 [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1740">TS</a>]

00:29:01   years ago and so because the world feel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1741">TS</a>]

00:29:03   small and it feels very easy to master [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1743">TS</a>]

00:29:06   maybe we're all looking again we're [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1746">TS</a>]

00:29:08   casting RI outward because we also have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1748">TS</a>]

00:29:10   that urge for exploration frontiers and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1750">TS</a>]

00:29:12   the idea that you can hop on a spaceship [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1752">TS</a>]

00:29:13   and find something else is tremendously [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1753">TS</a>]

00:29:15   appealing I'd be as some adventure and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1755">TS</a>]

00:29:17   plus explosions the advance of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1757">TS</a>]

00:29:19   technology to help with that because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1759">TS</a>]

00:29:21   before you had Cowboys right because i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1761">TS</a>]

00:29:24   was technology and then you had jungle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1764">TS</a>]

00:29:25   adventures exploring africa right but as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1765">TS</a>]

00:29:27   soon as we got more technology that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1767">TS</a>]

00:29:30   went right from the cowboy becomes the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1770">TS</a>]

00:29:32   jungle adventure becomes the astronaut [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1772">TS</a>]

00:29:34   it's just the view the vehicle they ride [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1774">TS</a>]

00:29:36   on the tools they used to do their job [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1776">TS</a>]

00:29:38   but it's also one exploring so i don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1778">TS</a>]

00:29:40   know if it turned as geeky as it just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1780">TS</a>]

00:29:42   the thing the geeks were into like if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1782">TS</a>]

00:29:44   you're if you're a kid you know decades [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1784">TS</a>]

00:29:46   ago you would be into Roy Rogers because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1786">TS</a>]

00:29:49   Cowboys were the best guys or maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1789">TS</a>]

00:29:51   you'd be into you know that the British [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1791">TS</a>]

00:29:52   explorers exploring you know the lost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1792">TS</a>]

00:29:54   continent in the jungles of africa but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1794">TS</a>]

00:29:57   that as soon as someone gets on a rocket [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1797">TS</a>]

00:29:59   thats it thats you know did all those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1799">TS</a>]

00:30:00   kids just switch immediately from the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1800">TS</a>]

00:30:02   jungle Explorer from the cowboy to this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1802">TS</a>]

00:30:04   and then ended but now it changes honors [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1804">TS</a>]

00:30:06   now it's sci-fi right now it's not your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1806">TS</a>]

00:30:08   cowboys warrants I fibers they were real [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1808">TS</a>]

00:30:10   cowboys and jungle explorers were even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1810">TS</a>]

00:30:12   though the jungle explorers you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1812">TS</a>]

00:30:13   we're always finding dinosaurs or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1813">TS</a>]

00:30:14   whatever that was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1814">TS</a>]

00:30:15   you didn't call it science fiction then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1815">TS</a>]

00:30:17   but it was just detected you sprinkle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1817">TS</a>]

00:30:19   technology on and people think it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1819">TS</a>]

00:30:20   changes into a different thing but it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1820">TS</a>]

00:30:21   exactly the same story is you know the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1821">TS</a>]

00:30:23   kids fantasizing about nights in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1823">TS</a>]

00:30:30   the structures of society and I am free [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1830">TS</a>]

00:30:33   to write my own narrative and to blaze a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1833">TS</a>]

00:30:35   path that other people will have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1835">TS</a>]

00:31:33   up in Westchester well I did you ever [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1893">TS</a>]

00:31:34   run into kitty pryde how she doing she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1894">TS</a>]

00:31:37   ran through me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1897">TS</a>]

00:31:39   haha oh haha got me actually gone to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1899">TS</a>]

00:31:44   that school from what i heard of his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1904">TS</a>]

00:31:45   childhood where everyone's playing D&D [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1905">TS</a>]

00:31:47   and they're all you know just geeking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1907">TS</a>]

00:31:48   out 24 hours Dave that's right it was it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1908">TS</a>]

00:31:51   was paradise my Mutant want to know what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1911">TS</a>]

00:31:54   his power was it was it wasn't one of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1914">TS</a>]

00:31:56   one of things when I think back to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1916">TS</a>]

00:31:59   stuff i was interested in high school [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1919">TS</a>]

00:32:01   and that sort of experience I actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1921">TS</a>]

00:32:03   think the thing that amazes me now is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1923">TS</a>]

00:32:06   that these things are celebrated in ways [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1926">TS</a>]

00:32:09   that i didn't realize that I think that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1929">TS</a>]

00:32:10   I think that's true it has to do with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1930">TS</a>]

00:32:13   feeling at the time like maybe there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1933">TS</a>]

00:32:16   were some people who are interested in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1936">TS</a>]

00:32:17   the stuff but basically it was just me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1937">TS</a>]

00:32:19   and there was it was sort of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1939">TS</a>]

00:32:20   feeling of isolation like God why does [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1940">TS</a>]

00:32:22   nobody else care about this stuff and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1942">TS</a>]

00:32:25   and you look at it now and like that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1945">TS</a>]

00:32:26   know what there's that the weezer song [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1946">TS</a>]

00:32:28   in the garage which is basically like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1948">TS</a>]

00:32:31   taking off all the boxes of everything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1951">TS</a>]

00:32:33   that's a key person in me in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1953">TS</a>]

00:32:35   seventies or eighties would be into you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1955">TS</a>]

00:32:38   know and and you know they bring back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1958">TS</a>]

00:32:39   doctor who and break I I they're like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1959">TS</a>]

00:32:43   regular people who are like oh I love [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1963">TS</a>]

00:32:44   the new doctor who was like the new [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1964">TS</a>]

00:32:46   Doctor Who well let me tell you but they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1966">TS</a>]

00:32:48   don't know it's a new doctor who they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1968">TS</a>]

00:32:49   don't know they don't they just think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1969">TS</a>]

00:32:51   it's doctor who is make sure it's on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1971">TS</a>]

00:32:52   I tried to explain to my mother that it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1972">TS</a>]

00:32:54   was on the sixties I blew her mind [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1974">TS</a>]

00:32:56   yeah William Hartnell yes it came on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1976">TS</a>]

00:32:58   right after the Kennedy assassination [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1978">TS</a>]

00:32:59   said no this is the new show i just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1979">TS</a>]

00:33:01   started watching [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1981">TS</a>]

00:33:02   oh yeah so but now so that that's the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1982">TS</a>]

00:33:05   thing that kind of amazing and I'm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1985">TS</a>]

00:33:06   heartened by that I i I'm I'm i think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1986">TS</a>]

00:33:10   it's great that these are things that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1990">TS</a>]

00:33:12   because the bottom line for me was that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1992">TS</a>]

00:33:14   i'll appreciate those kinds of stories [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1994">TS</a>]

00:33:15   and those kind of worlds and actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1995">TS</a>]

00:33:18   sort of felt sad that more people didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/1998">TS</a>]

00:33:21   like them because they were so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2001">TS</a>]

00:33:22   interesting and cool and why would you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2002">TS</a>]

00:33:24   like them and one of the nice things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2004">TS</a>]

00:33:25   about being in a connected world like we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2005">TS</a>]

00:33:27   are is that you can see that other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2007">TS</a>]

00:33:29   people not only do you find other people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2009">TS</a>]

00:33:31   who like them but I think it also [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2011">TS</a>]

00:33:32   disseminates more and people who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2012">TS</a>]

00:33:34   wouldn't you know be into it my wife [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2014">TS</a>]

00:33:35   wasn't into sci-fi or anything like that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2015">TS</a>]

00:33:37   but but she loves some of the sci-fi TV [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2017">TS</a>]

00:33:39   and Doctor Who and things like that and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2019">TS</a>]

00:33:41   it's like you know ya see it is good it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2021">TS</a>]

00:33:43   is really I wasn't wrong i was a great [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2023">TS</a>]

00:33:45   actually kind of a reverse effect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2025">TS</a>]

00:33:47   because you say like why weren't those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2027">TS</a>]

00:33:48   people into scifi like i said before i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2028">TS</a>]

00:33:50   don't think it's because that they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2030">TS</a>]

00:33:51   didn't like spaceships and didn't like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2031">TS</a>]

00:33:53   lightsaber stores or how about I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2033">TS</a>]

00:33:55   it's because the that subject matter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2035">TS</a>]

00:33:57   became linked with the people who are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2037">TS</a>]

00:33:59   bad at high school and you didn't want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2039">TS</a>]

00:34:02   to associate with those people and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2042">TS</a>]

00:34:03   you for you even though you watch Star [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2043">TS</a>]

00:34:04   Wars a lot and you loved it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2044">TS</a>]

00:34:06   you're not going to wear the Star Wars [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2046">TS</a>]

00:34:08   shirt to school or admit that you really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2048">TS</a>]

00:34:10   like Star Wars you may like it even more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2050">TS</a>]

00:34:11   than that geeky guy just because you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2051">TS</a>]

00:34:13   know that would push you down and social [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2053">TS</a>]

00:34:15   standing and and that's why all these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2055">TS</a>]

00:34:18   people didn't like it did you say bad at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2058">TS</a>]

00:34:20   high school [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2060">TS</a>]

00:34:21   yes I've actually been surprised by how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2061">TS</a>]

00:34:23   many of my girlfriend's her sister who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2063">TS</a>]

00:34:24   were so former sorority sisters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2064">TS</a>]

00:34:26   I've been surprised at how many of them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2066">TS</a>]

00:34:27   are completely fluent Star Trek The Next [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2067">TS</a>]

00:34:29   Generation like I know a lot of women [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2069">TS</a>]

00:34:31   who know that show inside and out who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2071">TS</a>]

00:34:33   are like the were the last people you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2073">TS</a>]

00:34:34   think of his geeky and yet they can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2074">TS</a>]

00:34:37   discourse at length on different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2077">TS</a>]

00:34:39   Starfleet captains and rank them in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2079">TS</a>]

00:34:40   order of preference and it's just it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2080">TS</a>]

00:34:42   delightful you know without that was one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2082">TS</a>]

00:34:45   of my that was one of those those [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2085">TS</a>]

00:34:46   moments where I realized that that that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2086">TS</a>]

00:34:48   geekiness was not was not a lonely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2088">TS</a>]

00:34:51   pursuit anymore was that in college we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2091">TS</a>]

00:34:54   had groups of people who watch I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2094">TS</a>]

00:34:56   remember I remember going to basically a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2096">TS</a>]

00:34:58   party for the Deep Space nine Premier [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2098">TS</a>]

00:35:00   where they were like 21 when hero land [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2100">TS</a>]

00:35:03   and it was like more than half women and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2103">TS</a>]

00:35:06   everybody's like cheering about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2106">TS</a>]

00:35:07   you-know-what Picard appears his cameo [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2107">TS</a>]

00:35:09   or whatever and that was when I realized [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2109">TS</a>]

00:35:12   wow this is not you know me in my room [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2112">TS</a>]

00:35:23   enterprise from the Franklin Mint who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2123">TS</a>]

00:36:17   had a broadening effect of you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2177">TS</a>]

00:36:20   because people star trek permeated the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2180">TS</a>]

00:36:21   culture a lot with the that the reruns [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2181">TS</a>]

00:36:23   have been out there for all that time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2183">TS</a>]

00:36:24   and kids have grown up with them and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2184">TS</a>]

00:36:26   then there were the movies and it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2186">TS</a>]

00:36:27   the way the show was done you know it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2187">TS</a>]

00:36:29   was it wasn't really heavily serialize [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2189">TS</a>]

00:36:31   it was really pretty accessible the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2191">TS</a>]

00:36:33   characters where you could get the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2193">TS</a>]

00:36:34   characters and it was a good show and I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2194">TS</a>]

00:36:35   think you put all those things together [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2195">TS</a>]

00:36:37   and end and a lot of people even now you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2197">TS</a>]

00:36:41   mentioned Star Trek The Next Generation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2201">TS</a>]

00:36:42   and people are like oh yeah they can't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2202">TS</a>]

00:36:44   take off episodes and it's kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2204">TS</a>]

00:36:46   amazing how broad that show ended up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2206">TS</a>]

00:36:47   being a bronze reach was oh yeah but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2207">TS</a>]

00:36:51   that isn't isn't the difference between [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2211">TS</a>]

00:36:52   so and i don't know if this turn up i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2212">TS</a>]

00:36:55   think it's an artificial difference but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2215">TS</a>]

00:36:56   he patent as well as making a difference [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2216">TS</a>]

00:36:59   between pop culture and geek culture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2219">TS</a>]

00:37:00   right i think the only difference is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2220">TS</a>]

00:37:03   that of how deep you go into something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2223">TS</a>]

00:37:06   right so you can be you can enjoy Star [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2226">TS</a>]

00:37:09   Trek and that maybe a geeky thing unto [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2229">TS</a>]

00:37:12   itself but I don't think liking star [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2232">TS</a>]

00:37:14   trek is Kiki but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2234">TS</a>]

00:37:15   really like I have behind me 6,000 star [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2235">TS</a>]

00:37:20   trek the collectible card game cards [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2240">TS</a>]

00:37:22   that is kinky so if i said to you well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2242">TS</a>]

00:37:25   you know not only do i liked the episode [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2245">TS</a>]

00:37:27   where the card is trapped on the alien [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2247">TS</a>]

00:37:29   planet with the other captain but then i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2249">TS</a>]

00:37:32   say well it's Darmok it's like okay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2252">TS</a>]

00:37:34   that's another level and I say well you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2254">TS</a>]

00:37:35   know the alien captain was played by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2255">TS</a>]

00:37:37   paul winfield who also played the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2257">TS</a>]

00:37:38   captain of the reliant and start to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2258">TS</a>]

00:37:40   wrath of khan i said and i already knew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2260">TS</a>]

00:37:42   that so we heard around the whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2262">TS</a>]

00:37:44   example and written by German oski who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2264">TS</a>]

00:37:46   ended up being a producer and star trek [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2266">TS</a>]

00:37:48   voyager which was not a very good show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2268">TS</a>]

00:37:49   by the way but other limits because what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2269">TS</a>]

00:37:51   you're talking about these different [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2271">TS</a>]

00:37:52   levels of involvement but if it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2272">TS</a>]

00:37:54   Twilight we're talking about where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2274">TS</a>]

00:37:55   there's somebody who's gone through [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2275">TS</a>]

00:37:57   harry potter right and one of the one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2277">TS</a>]

00:38:00   the recurring members of our little [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2280">TS</a>]

00:38:01   podcast crew here wrote Harry Potter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2281">TS</a>]

00:38:03   fanfiction I mean that's not her prop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2283">TS</a>]

00:38:05   Potter is a passive mainstream success [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2285">TS</a>]

00:38:07   twilight is a massive success but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2287">TS</a>]

00:38:09   there's a major amount of geekery the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2289">TS</a>]

00:38:11   gloves on but the thing is up and maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2291">TS</a>]

00:38:13   hearing groping toward a unified theory [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2293">TS</a>]

00:38:15   one of the things about decrease i'll [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2295">TS</a>]

00:38:17   cut always comes back to it seems like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2297">TS</a>]

00:38:19   the subject that tend to attract geeks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2299">TS</a>]

00:38:20   tend to have incredibly consistent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2300">TS</a>]

00:38:22   internal rules in order and if you take [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2302">TS</a>]

00:38:25   a look at harry potter you're talking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2305">TS</a>]

00:38:26   about a woman who filled up notebooks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2306">TS</a>]

00:38:27   and spend about 10 years thinking about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2307">TS</a>]

00:38:29   this university ahead while she was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2309">TS</a>]

00:38:30   riding it and has spread spreadsheets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2310">TS</a>]

00:38:33   for God's sake where she brought out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2313">TS</a>]

00:38:35   chronology of people's genealogies and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2315">TS</a>]

00:38:37   what happened after the books and things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2317">TS</a>]

00:38:39   like that so she had this universe with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2319">TS</a>]

00:38:41   incredibly consistent internal histories [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2321">TS</a>]

00:38:43   and rules and I think for for geeks be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2323">TS</a>]

00:38:47   able to decode that and saying I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2327">TS</a>]

00:38:48   understand the universe was created by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2328">TS</a>]

00:38:50   somebody else is is part of the appeal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2330">TS</a>]

00:38:51   so what I'm wondering is if you can say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2331">TS</a>]

00:38:54   well this person is really to twilight [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2334">TS</a>]

00:38:55   but they're never ever gonna be geeky [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2335">TS</a>]

00:38:56   about twilight because it doesn't have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2336">TS</a>]

00:38:57   the same baseline get criteria of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2337">TS</a>]

00:39:00   complicated internal system that can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2340">TS</a>]

00:39:02   still be grasped by outsiders or it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2342">TS</a>]

00:39:04   doesn't have the same you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2344">TS</a>]

00:39:07   entry-level code phrases or or knowledge [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2347">TS</a>]

00:39:10   that that people exchange to figure out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2350">TS</a>]

00:39:13   who's in and who's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2353">TS</a>]

00:39:14   I basically want to have some things are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2354">TS</a>]

00:39:16   just never going to be key no matter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2356">TS</a>]

00:39:17   your level of engagement is 22 yeah well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2357">TS</a>]

00:39:20   this is the same twilight is a shallow [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2360">TS</a>]

00:39:22   book series and i'll agree [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2362">TS</a>]

00:39:24   how's that just think this statement is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2364">TS</a>]

00:39:26   there any world building and then [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2366">TS</a>]

00:39:28   writing like you know a trashy teenage [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2368">TS</a>]

00:39:30   romance vampire book [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2370">TS</a>]

00:39:31   yeah there's only you can only dig so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2371">TS</a>]

00:39:33   deep that you hit the bottom of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2373">TS</a>]

00:39:35   things right and so that if this depth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2375">TS</a>]

00:39:37   then you can get into it so don't bring [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2377">TS</a>]

00:39:39   ski career away maybe I mean just think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2379">TS</a>]

00:39:41   of it we're talking about like you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2381">TS</a>]

00:39:42   if you are the star trek casual start [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2382">TS</a>]

00:39:45   water or the star trek geek sports is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2385">TS</a>]

00:39:47   the best example because everybody some [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2387">TS</a>]

00:39:49   kind of sports fan like it just vaguely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2389">TS</a>]

00:39:52   Red Sox fan or whatever but that goes so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2392">TS</a>]

00:39:56   RAS of the of the last 27 starting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2396">TS</a>]

00:39:59   pictures of your favorite team people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2399">TS</a>]

00:40:00   can rattle that like that rabbit hole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2400">TS</a>]

00:40:02   goes way down farther than you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2402">TS</a>]

00:40:04   Perry potter father even talking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2404">TS</a>]

00:40:05   anything like that because sports has [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2405">TS</a>]

00:40:07   been around forever in there so much to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2407">TS</a>]

00:40:09   know I don't know about to further the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2409">TS</a>]

00:40:11   dumb and Tolkien actually well you do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2411">TS</a>]

00:40:13   that said that hold still pretty forward [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2413">TS</a>]

00:40:15   to think about how many years have you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2415">TS</a>]

00:40:17   been playing baseball in this country [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2417">TS</a>]

00:40:18   and how many stats there are in every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2418">TS</a>]

00:40:20   single one of those players and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2420">TS</a>]

00:40:21   screaming like a management moves and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2421">TS</a>]

00:40:23   trades and just like there's just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2423">TS</a>]

00:40:25   there's just too many numbers on it so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2425">TS</a>]

00:40:26   much it's not just the numbers to John [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2426">TS</a>]

00:40:28   it with baseball you've got the there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2428">TS</a>]

00:40:30   like the society for american baseball [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2430">TS</a>]

00:40:31   research and there's this group called [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2431">TS</a>]

00:40:32   retro see retro sheet and they actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2432">TS</a>]

00:40:34   do things like pull out the microfilm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2434">TS</a>]

00:40:36   from newspapers from the eighteen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2436">TS</a>]

00:40:39   hundreds and and piece together [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2439">TS</a>]

00:40:42   play-by-play of games that didn't have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2442">TS</a>]

00:40:46   modern box scores and everything so it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2446">TS</a>]

00:40:48   so it's yeah you can't just make stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2448">TS</a>]

00:40:50   up they have to go off reality talking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2450">TS</a>]

00:40:52   at least could do world-building any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2452">TS</a>]

00:40:53   just make stuff like they they're saying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2453">TS</a>]

00:40:55   we've got hundreds of years of actual [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2455">TS</a>]

00:40:57   history of every single out and every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2457">TS</a>]

00:40:58   single game and every single player and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2458">TS</a>]

00:41:00   what they did and what you can know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2460">TS</a>]

00:41:01   about them in the drama's between the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2461">TS</a>]

00:41:03   teams and moving teams from states [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2463">TS</a>]

00:41:04   there's no fanfic and baseball they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2464">TS</a>]

00:41:07   realize fantasy baseball you know this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2467">TS</a>]

00:41:09   no I want to grab these people from this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2469">TS</a>]

00:41:12   team and put the Great's of every error [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2472">TS</a>]

00:41:14   combined but you know there was no [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2474">TS</a>]

00:41:15   designated hitter but the pictures are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2475">TS</a>]

00:41:17   allowed to use tools that makes it that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2477">TS</a>]

00:41:19   makes a really great point because while [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2479">TS</a>]

00:41:20   I've been sitting here detailing off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2480">TS</a>]

00:41:22   ways which I was an incredibly geeky [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2482">TS</a>]

00:41:24   person in high school which I'm sure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2484">TS</a>]

00:41:26   comes as no surprise to anybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2486">TS</a>]

00:41:27   one of the other things that I did in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2487">TS</a>]

00:41:30   high school was I was in a dice baseball [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2490">TS</a>]

00:41:32   league and we played we have a league we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2492">TS</a>]

00:41:34   have players it was based on a game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2494">TS</a>]

00:41:37   called sports illustrated baseball [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2497">TS</a>]

00:41:38   but it was all you had little player [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2498">TS</a>]

00:41:39   cards and you had died so i didn't have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2499">TS</a>]

00:41:41   dnd but I had fake baseball and we would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2501">TS</a>]

00:41:43   play at lunchtime and we will play [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2503">TS</a>]

00:41:45   baseball games and so that was a sports [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2505">TS</a>]

00:47:41   across the wasteland she could end up a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2861">TS</a>]

00:47:43   Superman you know that's what happens [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2863">TS</a>]

00:47:46   when you put a baby on a spaceship [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2866">TS</a>]

00:47:48   anything can happen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2868">TS</a>]

00:47:49   that's true so Jason Jason are you a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2869">TS</a>]

00:47:52   zombie a spaceship or whatever the other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2872">TS</a>]

00:47:56   one was we always manage to police i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2876">TS</a>]

00:48:04   a Zeppelin is just a spaceship that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2884">TS</a>]

00:48:05   hasn't reached orbit yet but definitely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2885">TS</a>]

00:48:08   the I would i wrote a piece for the late [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2888">TS</a>]

00:48:11   great website TV that we used to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2891">TS</a>]

00:48:15   about [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2895">TS</a>]

00:48:17   about Star Gate when it first came on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2897">TS</a>]

00:48:19   and that that's a franchise that as many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2899">TS</a>]

00:48:21   do degraded over time but one of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2901">TS</a>]

00:48:24   class stargate universe one of it one of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2904">TS</a>]

00:48:26   the things I was a stargate universe is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2906">TS</a>]

00:48:28   better than the other spin-off but and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2908">TS</a>]

00:48:30   john scalzi was involved and I like his [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2910">TS</a>]

00:48:32   book so I charitable toward it but um uh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2912">TS</a>]

00:48:35   huh but the original stargate what I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2915">TS</a>]

00:48:36   loved about it was something that I felt [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2916">TS</a>]

00:48:38   like even start record lost after they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2918">TS</a>]

00:48:40   built up too much of the universe and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2920">TS</a>]

00:48:41   you weren't out on the fringes anymore [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2921">TS</a>]

00:48:43   which was with stargate just had that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2923">TS</a>]

00:48:46   barest of and there's no spaceship by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2926">TS</a>]

00:48:48   the way but still it had that idea that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2928">TS</a>]

00:48:51   they turn this device on and you took a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2931">TS</a>]

00:48:53   step through it and you're on another [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2933">TS</a>]

00:48:54   planet and you didn't know what [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2934">TS</a>]

00:48:56   adventure way to do there and you've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2936">TS</a>]

00:48:57   never been there before and I that is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2937">TS</a>]

00:49:00   tremendously appealing that was the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2940">TS</a>]

00:49:01   thing you know that show ended up being [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2941">TS</a>]

00:49:03   there's a conspiracy and a government [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2943">TS</a>]

00:49:06   bureaucracy and all these just things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2946">TS</a>]

00:49:08   that just destroy they did get a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2948">TS</a>]

00:49:09   spaceship at one point just terrible but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2949">TS</a>]

00:49:12   but when it was the purity of just you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2952">TS</a>]

00:49:13   know we've got a gadget that will let us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2953">TS</a>]

00:49:15   step through to other planets and we'll [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2955">TS</a>]

00:49:17   have adventures there i love that that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2957">TS</a>]

00:49:19   that kind of pure concept and anything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2959">TS</a>]

00:49:22   that includes MacGyver house but not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2962">TS</a>]

00:49:23   sliders and MacGyver yes and when it had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2963">TS</a>]

00:49:27   over sliders and also here's the here's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2967">TS</a>]

00:49:29   another thing that was great about the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2969">TS</a>]

00:49:31   slightest well-shot sliders cheesier [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2971">TS</a>]

00:49:32   than Stargate my wife loves Stargate and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2972">TS</a>]

00:49:34   i've only seen one episode of stargate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2974">TS</a>]

00:49:36   and I thought it was awful but when told [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2976">TS</a>]

00:49:39   that i saw a bad episode so it's i would [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2979">TS</a>]

00:49:41   say that at least half of them are awful [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2981">TS</a>]

00:49:43   because the show lasted like ten years [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2983">TS</a>]

00:49:44   and only the first five were really any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2984">TS</a>]

00:49:47   good i saw where they traveled back to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2987">TS</a>]

00:49:48   the sixties or something and yeah future [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2988">TS</a>]

00:49:51   podcast top equation talking about sighs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2991">TS</a>]

00:49:57   circuit yellow these names yeah well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2997">TS</a>]

00:49:58   have been speaking of stargate because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2998">TS</a>]

00:49:59   you ended up with the characters from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/2999">TS</a>]

00:50:01   the actress from farscape first game [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3001">TS</a>]

00:50:03   against a woman show and bed router and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3003">TS</a>]

00:50:05   claudia black both ended up on Stargate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3005">TS</a>]

00:50:30   the worse getting a little worse [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3030">TS</a>]

00:50:31   neighborhood would you rather be on a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3031">TS</a>]

00:50:32   hit sci-fi show with a cult following or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3032">TS</a>]

00:50:35   a like c-grade nobody watches it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3035">TS</a>]

00:50:45   renewed and you know what that means [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3045">TS</a>]

00:50:47   that means nathan fillion is good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3047">TS</a>]

00:50:48   pretty soon he's gonna have enough money [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3048">TS</a>]

00:50:55   yeah well Adam Baldwin sort of bounced [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3055">TS</a>]

00:50:57   in and out because you know people were [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3057">TS</a>]

00:50:59   like oh it's animal mother and then he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3059">TS</a>]

00:51:01   was in firefly in there he's on shop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3061">TS</a>]

00:51:03   which is kind of geeky show but it's a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3063">TS</a>]

00:51:07   big step down compared those characters [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3067">TS</a>]

00:51:11   that make sense before compare these two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3071">TS</a>]

00:51:12   characters which is the better character [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3072">TS</a>]

00:51:14   if you were an actor would you be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3074">TS</a>]

00:51:15   happier playing Jane or playing whatever [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3075">TS</a>]

00:51:28   us either last is over his pocket but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3088">TS</a>]

00:51:32   two out of four people agree [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3092">TS</a>]

00:51:35   fire/5 not so good if oh I'm wounded [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3095">TS</a>]

00:51:39   Firefly is not bet that by good I've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3099">TS</a>]

00:51:41   always suspected that if they're like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3101">TS</a>]

00:51:43   league of lady geek side be kicked out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3103">TS</a>]

00:51:44   just because I've never really connected [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3104">TS</a>]

00:51:45   with any weed and stuff but you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3105">TS</a>]

00:51:48   it's about it'sit's i would also be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3108">TS</a>]

00:51:50   kicked out of the leading league of lady [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3110">TS</a>]

00:51:52   cakes for the same reason for just that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3112">TS</a>]

00:51:54   reason just that really the reason [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3114">TS</a>]

00:51:55   picture [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3115">TS</a>]

00:51:57   yeah because there's this new i see are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3117">TS</a>]

00:52:00   you guys aware that there's a site [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3120">TS</a>]

00:52:01   called the Mary Sue that just launched [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3121">TS</a>]

00:52:03   its supposed to be a celebration of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3123">TS</a>]

00:52:04   women and geeks and geeky lady culture i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3124">TS</a>]

00:52:07   have not heard about yeah it's called [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3127">TS</a>]

00:52:09   it's called the Mary Sue and and this it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3129">TS</a>]

00:52:12   actually ties into this topic because I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3132">TS</a>]

00:52:13   get the sense it's trying very hard in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3133">TS</a>]

00:52:15   way yeah but I think there's something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3135">TS</a>]

00:52:20   to the case that there is a sort of new [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3140">TS</a>]

00:52:22   generation of of women i mean i alluded [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3142">TS</a>]

00:52:24   to that point with doctor who i've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3144">TS</a>]

00:52:26   introduced lots of women friends of mine [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3146">TS</a>]

00:52:28   to the new doctor who and they've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3148">TS</a>]

00:52:30   generally loved it and it's a lot looked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3150">TS</a>]

00:52:31   a lot of the same people who love Buffy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3151">TS</a>]

00:52:33   and and you know part of that is my just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3153">TS</a>]

00:52:36   shocked that there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3156">TS</a>]

00:52:37   are women watching Jean Run shows [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3157">TS</a>]

00:52:38   because of course when I was in high [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3158">TS</a>]

00:52:40   school we hello girls anywhere LOL yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3160">TS</a>]

00:52:43   so but I so I think there is something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3163">TS</a>]

00:52:46   to that in fact the point now where I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3166">TS</a>]

00:52:48   think there is a probably a whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3168">TS</a>]

00:52:50   subculture of of woman oriented geeky [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3170">TS</a>]

00:52:55   stuff and and knowing you Lisa I'm not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3175">TS</a>]

00:52:58   surprised that you might kind of lifts [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3178">TS</a>]

00:53:00   an eyebrow at some of that stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3180">TS</a>]

00:53:01   probably play and it i think it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3181">TS</a>]

00:53:05   probably just maybe a function of age [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3185">TS</a>]

00:53:07   get off my lawn [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3187">TS</a>]

00:53:09   if what is so great about everybody's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3189">TS</a>]

00:53:12   logs that they don't want people if they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3192">TS</a>]

00:53:15   are our lawns not you're so get off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3195">TS</a>]

00:53:17   we've mastered the 1i know where every I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3197">TS</a>]

00:53:19   know the history of every kind of blade [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3199">TS</a>]

00:53:21   of grass cuts on it I think I think I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3201">TS</a>]

00:53:23   think the objection i have to too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3203">TS</a>]

00:53:25   self-consciously positioning lady [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3205">TS</a>]

00:53:27   cassandra is I is it's using jet it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3207">TS</a>]

00:53:30   using jet genders a differentiator and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3210">TS</a>]

00:53:33   the reason I object to that is because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3213">TS</a>]

00:53:36   you're instantly setting it up where if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3216">TS</a>]

00:53:38   a not be one-half there they're working [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3218">TS</a>]

00:53:42   in opposition to each other so that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3222">TS</a>]

00:55:42   his costume but the doctor who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3342">TS</a>]

00:55:43   experienced lebanon at it and unless [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3343">TS</a>]

00:55:46   your dad your own different ways trucks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3346">TS</a>]

00:55:51   different strokes different but I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3351">TS</a>]

00:55:53   think it's I don't think the caster [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3353">TS</a>]

00:55:54   because the ladies like them i really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3354">TS</a>]

00:55:55   don't want to be good at this so there's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3355">TS</a>]

00:55:57   something to that if you look at all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3357">TS</a>]

00:55:58   shows that that women tend to like it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3358">TS</a>]

00:56:01   and that obviously I was gonna say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3361">TS</a>]

00:56:03   before the gender thing about the girl [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3363">TS</a>]

00:56:05   geeks and boy geeks its kind of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3365">TS</a>]

00:56:07   shorthand is the other way its cause and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3367">TS</a>]

00:56:08   effect is the other way is that there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3368">TS</a>]

00:56:10   are things that typically women like a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3370">TS</a>]

00:56:13   out more than men [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3373">TS</a>]

00:56:14   I you know interpersonal relationships [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3374">TS</a>]

00:56:17   instead of power fantasies or you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3377">TS</a>]

00:56:19   just hard sci-fi or whatever dialogue [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3379">TS</a>]

00:56:22   character yet and they take any show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3382">TS</a>]

00:56:24   that had that has those elements [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3384">TS</a>]

00:56:26   strongly in it and they say oh now this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3386">TS</a>]

00:56:28   is great this is your girl's fantasy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3388">TS</a>]

00:56:29   because it doesn't but it's you know it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3389">TS</a>]

00:56:31   works both ways it guys like that too is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3391">TS</a>]

00:56:33   just you know it's a continuum of one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3393">TS</a>]

00:56:35   direction so as soon as you cross over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3395">TS</a>]

00:56:37   that line of having just too much love [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3397">TS</a>]

00:56:38   interest or too much you know personal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3398">TS</a>]

00:56:42   drama or emotional stuff and not enough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3402">TS</a>]

00:56:44   explosions or teleportation or you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3404">TS</a>]

00:56:47   stuff like that then it becomes a girl [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3407">TS</a>]

00:56:49   fantasy and then you're like hey we [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3409">TS</a>]

00:56:54   fantasy doing when really it's just a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3414">TS</a>]

00:56:55   sci-fi story with less one thing and [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3415">TS</a>]

00:56:57   more of another yeah we're just just [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3417">TS</a>]

00:57:10   his shows and that's that's fine but at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3430">TS</a>]

00:57:12   the same time you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3432">TS</a>]

00:57:13   firefly had great women characters but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3433">TS</a>]

00:57:16   it with a male lead Buffy had a female [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3436">TS</a>]

00:57:18   lead but as a guy who discovered Buffy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3438">TS</a>]

00:57:21   there's something for everyone in that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3441">TS</a>]

00:57:22   show [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3442">TS</a>]

00:57:23   Buffy Buffy not unattractive and many of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3443">TS</a>]

00:57:25   the other women women on that show where [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3445">TS</a>]

00:57:27   were we were quite attractive and there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3447">TS</a>]

00:57:29   were male kind of geek wish-fulfillment [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3449">TS</a>]

00:57:31   characters like sander in particular so [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3451">TS</a>]

00:57:33   you know he had something for everyone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3453">TS</a>]

00:57:35   but and again so why yeah why draw the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3455">TS</a>]

00:57:38   lines I i do think sometimes it's okay i [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3458">TS</a>]

00:57:40   would say like i'll be at stuff and even [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3460">TS</a>]

00:57:42   firefly because I can almost pushed over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3462">TS</a>]

00:57:44   into if you have to label them girl get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3464">TS</a>]

00:57:45   your geek you label them girl geek [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3465">TS</a>]

00:57:47   because all those shows were about human [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3467">TS</a>]

00:57:49   drama and not about like firefly wasn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3469">TS</a>]

00:57:51   about what made the spaceship fly or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3471">TS</a>]

00:57:53   what kind of technology was going on or [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3473">TS</a>]

00:57:55   what happened to the universe that was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3475">TS</a>]

00:57:56   all just background was it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3476">TS</a>]

00:57:57   completely a character drama and buffing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3477">TS</a>]

00:58:00   was like you weren't really interested [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3480">TS</a>]

00:58:01   that much in like a no vampires how do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3481">TS</a>]

00:58:03   they work was the character drama [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3483">TS</a>]

00:58:04   coming-of-age story so those you have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3484">TS</a>]

00:58:08   you had two categories and you'd have to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3488">TS</a>]

00:58:09   call them girl geek luckily they didn't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3489">TS</a>]

00:58:11   do that but you can see some cynical [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3491">TS</a>]

00:58:13   person wrapping these up and saying oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3493">TS</a>]

00:58:14   you know like twilight was heavily [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3494">TS</a>]

00:58:16   marketed because there's like nothing in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3496">TS</a>]

00:58:17   there for the guys you know so that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3497">TS</a>]

00:58:19   that's obviously way over the other side [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3499">TS</a>]

00:58:20   of the spectrum but it's more of a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3500">TS</a>]

00:58:22   marketing decision i think then saying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3502">TS</a>]

00:58:24   all guys aren't going to like firefly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+kMYHmGFU/3504">TS</a>]
