"Guy safe and blue teeth. You know, ten years working blue TSA business I could put Harry Steen into this and just get the demo out and just prove that this is the concept we're building for. And of course, you know, I talked to my Friends and they're like, yeah, Steve don't do it. I've hopped in my parents. Like, yeah, this is really bad. So I decided to do it. Naturally. I think the convention came from what we saw in the marketing location based VR was a company that raised a hundred times more money than we did with a product we felt was not in the right direction. I think at that time, people that raised a lot of money were about how do you interface with the environment. You can touch the wall at speed. And we're like, yeah, that's kind of cool, but great thing about games is really about playing a game with each other, right? The game object isn't environment. It is your Friends. Nobody built for that. We knew that people wanted that. That was a conviction. So that's when I decided to basically take my life saving and put it into sandbox. And I remember the moment I did that, I was at the bank even the bank executive of like, are you sure you want to do that? That's like 95% of your scene. I'm like, yeah, let's go. But it wasn't done in isolation because at that time we were down to a team of 6 and I had to sit down with them and I said, like, look, I couldn't get any more funding. This is it. I'm going to have to shut down the company. But I do have this much money left, and I'm just going to put everything in it. But if I do that, I will need all of you to be fully committed to go for this. Now, if you're not that's okay, and I'll just shut the company down. But if I'm going to do this, we're going to fight for it. And then we sat down and started going and everyone gave the vote. Fortunately, everyone agreed to fight on for the next 6 months to make it happen. That's amazing. I have to ask you, it sounds like you and your team maybe saw something that other people, whether it be investors, whether it be other founders, didn't see at the time, and there are many reasons to say that this won't work, right? As I mentioned before, you're doing both hardware and software, you also are focusing on a social element, which means that you don't only need to convince one person you need to convince many people to show up,

How Spencer Levine's Game Has Changed With Age
"What I was most impressed with, Steen. Like you're almost 40 years old, okay? And you're going up against these guys. And I mean, I've played a million rounds a few. We hit the same, I am. I am out here by 50 yards by a lot of these guys. Like Paul bars and Paul barjon plays at my club here. And we played together. He's 50 yards by me. And he's right. And he lost his card on the PGA Tour this year. These guys are hitting it 50 by me. I know they're hitting it 50 by you. You had no problem being too back on Saturday. No problem. If you would have made a few more putts, you probably would have been right there on Sunday. But like, yeah, that's a thing. When you get to be almost 40 years old, like you are, and you know you're going to get out driven. You just have to, at some point, you have to middle game these guys. And that's something in your career. Same as me, and we've struggled with, right? Middle game is mental game has been tough because we're so hard on ourselves. You're the same way as me, we're just fucking get mad and whatever. Sure. But how have you chilled out? Like, how have you settled down in your later years? Well, you know, like this week, I think this week in a way, it was just a one week thing, so it was like, you know, or obviously I wanted to be more than that once you get in, you're playing good, you start thinking ahead, like, well, if I can do this, you know, you can go here there, obviously. But since it was a one week thing and you're kind of thinking of it more, I don't know, I felt like more of like, I don't want to say vacation, but I was just like grateful. You know what I'm saying? So that was kind of the mindset for the week. It's not like you've been on the road for 8 weeks, you know, missed a couple cuts, and you're getting bitter. It was like, okay, I got my time to play. So I had a good attitude all week, which was cool. And yeah, with the driving distance dude, yeah, these guys vomit, but dude, I looked at my stats, they're pretty good. I was in the top ten in strokes gained off the tee overall, which was pretty good. I saw I was number one in fairways hit, and then like middle of the pack distance, but like, so I was top ten combined, which is pretty good. You know what I mean? It's not like I was short and then I think the first two days I was number one in green's hit too as well. So like I just hit it really good last week,

"Like I think that's been the kind of the heartbeat for the bruins the past bunch of years has been like, however far Martian goes, the bruins go. And you're seeing it, right? I mean, even with in Craigslist, I had such an interesting element to that line, because obviously it doesn't bring the skill and the snipes of pasternak and all that stuff and the finesse. But the hard work and the second efforts and yeah, lunch pail, blue collar type, you know, keeping the puck in the zone, type player has been huge. So I think that adds another element to that line that I think is very good. So, but Oscar Steen is a fun one because 5 points in 7 games this year. Hard to sit here and say, he's officially made it, right? Like, oh, he's good. They're out of the water. There's a lot of the same. He's describing what I would say. He is more than deserved his chance. But he fits really well with coil because he brings that speed. He's got some skill, you can just, I don't know if it's me, but just by the eye test, you can look at him and go, that's an NHL. That's a guy who is going to produce. And it feels like that's the case with Steen. I'm curious because we like Coyle with Steen. Who is your ideal fit on that left side? Is it now felino's probably done for a while? De brusque would it be Frederick? Interested to hear your thoughts on that. I think it's going to be de bross for a little while until they alone him, right? It only makes sense. I think Frederick worked best in the middle. I think he has been putting up some goals lately, shockingly. So I don't know the messed up kulikoff. Yeah. Oh my God, I was unbelievable. But that fourth line has actually been pretty unbelievable with no sick before he wasn't in COVID protocol. So I think you do go with debras until you find an until you trade him. And then a are then B, if fully know comes back, I don't know when felina would come back and be a miracle. That looked to me like an ACL or a high ankle sprain, like it did not look good. So yeah, I think the speed would work well with them. Yeah, a Steen and coil has a pair has looked really, really good. And that's like why I'm just like, we need a two C, because I'm just slide everyone down. Be great. So yeah, I think you start with the broth and then you kind of just fill in as you go. And whenever you unload them. To me, I think you're a 100% right on to brusque. I think right now the bottom 6 should be to brush coil steam, bleed no sec Lazar. I like no sick and a little more than Frederick. And I think he brings a little bit more. I wouldn't hate if the bruins could find a way to deal Frederick. If it can help.

"Okay, let's dive into the lineup of the bruins, which has looked a lot better of late. And it goes back. Now we are recording this again before the capitals for the capital's game Monday night. So excuse us if Boston got shellacked 7 nothing or one 7 nothing or whatever. We don't know the result. It's that time of year. The times when you get dummied by the capitals, the Sweeney goes out and gets you Taylor hall on the curses are, so. It's true. Getting dummy by the capitals is always a good sign because it happened last year that went out and get Curtis bizarre and Taylor hall. Remember the first game of 2018, 19. They got killed in Washington by the capital's first game of the year. That year. They go to the Stanley Cup that year. So, hey, maybe. Spin zone. Anyways, this win in Tampa felt different. They win 5 to two. They do without Charlie mcavoy. They go into Tampa and do it. I almost get the sense that whenever there's a team that goes far in the playoffs or goes the distance, goes to the championship, but wins it, whatever. You always can look back at usually in a way game during the year. Even sometimes a home game, where things click and things just the whole team plays well. Something changes. And it felt like that game at Tampa had that had those vibes. Do you feel the same way? Oh yeah, especially you said it without Charlie mcavoy, too. That in itself was impressive. Especially because you saw them struggle without mcavoy against Minnesota. And then for them to play a complete 60 minute effort against the reigning sailing cup champions was a safe, so our eyes to say the least. But yeah, it was a little stunning to me. The birds have played really well, like this new calendar year. It's almost like Jekyll and Hyde, they just flip switch or something. It's almost as if playing more games and like all these games that they're playing, every other night that's like helping them oddly enough. So yeah, it was really, really impressive, especially without mcavoy in it, like I said, full 60 minutes right from the start. It felt like a play. It was like their playoff game for so to speak. Like they were with it right from puck drop. So it was super impressive. And like I said earlier, great to see past. We're not start to get going. Looks like he gained some confidence that game. I don't think he was getting the bounces before, but he seemed to be getting the balances in Tampa and so hopefully the floodgates just open for him. That would be great. Yeah, it feels like he's on the verge of score and like a billion goals. And also, I think the way that he's scoring, right, the effort, the creating his own chances is good. It's not just not that there's anything wrong with it, but it's not just like one timers on the power play. That are going in. He's doing it on his own. So that is a very good sign. And I mean, Martian turned it up. Like, that's funny. I was watching. Yeah, I was watching. I was watching my work laptop for NCA is based in Atlanta. So the laptop is up here in Boston..

"Do you think Erica is that guy? He's looked better as of late. I'll definitely give him some credit. But no, I don't. I don't think he is the solution going forward. No. I agree. I think he is a stopgap. I like him a little bit more than Charlie Coyle, just the way he plays a little bit quicker on puck's a little bit more like kind of he's great in the net front on the first power play unit with Nick foligno went down. But I just, to me, I think you still need someone. You still need like legit you see. And this leads us into. I didn't have this on the docket initially, so I apologize for just bringing this up. But I assume you saw the David creechy comments. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I saw those. Interesting. Gotta give creature credit, he was always very open. Like, I remember after the tomorrow actually tried to go for Java. Anybody that he said this? No, and it's funny after that it's so funny, like right after he leaves, they immediately are like, oh, you're not on the second line if you want. That's up to you. But it's funny after when the bruins went for John Tavares a few summers ago, creatures very outspoken when they came back in the fall saying like you didn't really love the balloons were doing that. He went on to have a really good year that year. And he was a huge part of why the bruins ended up being in the Cup final. That next summer, but crazy basically comes out and is like, why I don't get it, the coach never let me have pasta knock. How come now immediately posture not can go down to the second line? And I think it's, I think it's tough because I hate to be a fence sitter, but I see both sides because when creati was here, creature was like the main guy of that line. Now that second line is Taylor, I was supposed to be Taylor hall. That's the difference about it. I think create cheese well within his right to speak his mind. I think he maybe should be going at Sweeney a little more than Cassidy. Because Cassidy's trying to do like the best that he has with the guys that he has, and you can not past or not, that line was just so dominant. It was hard to peel them off. When the brooms were struggling, I would absolutely be like, you know what? We'll pass knock down, give this team like some new life. But yeah, I'm not surprised you made those remarks. I still hope he comes back that would be unbelievable. I didn't even get this team right now, the way they're playing would be nuts. You have depth. You don't have a ton of depth. Because you'd be able to. I still think they have depth, but creature would just make it so much better. So much better. I don't think another year straight to the hall, I say it a million times, but I would have loved to see it. And you're starting to see Taylor hall, you know, really start to get going with pasta now, which is great to see in pasta. Looks like he's got some more confidence, potted to against Tampa. Hopefully the floodgates open for him. So, yeah, I understand crazy why he said it and I mean he's always been open and I think he was well within his right to say it..

"I think cheap money is the most important thing. He's probably gonna be more than a rental. He's an RF 8 years in and Sweeney loves those guys. You know, Sweeney's not crazy about the one and done. So it makes sense. I wonder what they give up to get him, and especially we don't know the status and Nick foligno, but I'm also worried because it seems like we have a bunch of those middle of the pack bottom 6 guys, so it's like how much do we really need, especially since Oscar Steen's playing awesome right now? It kind of makes it kind of turns me off to spending some assets to get lost in crowds with that being said. I think he'd be a welcome addition. And I think especially this Bernstein's trying to get into the playoffs trying to gear up for the playoffs. It's going to be a lot of games in a lot of days. So I actually don't hate it. The only, I think I didn't like it at first. I still don't love it, because I just think back to Nick Richie, Nick Ritchie was good, but there was just they didn't get enough. It felt like out of him. For what he could have brought. And I'm worried that this is gonna be the same thing. However, feels like and we don't know this, we're recording this Monday morning at 11. So we don't know the status as an affiliate yet. It feels like Nick foley is gonna be out for an extended period of time and easy spot for cross just goes straight in on would be the left side on the third line, right? Krause, Coyle, and steam. That's not a that's a pretty good third line. That makes me like it more because you're down foligno to brusque is getting traded at some point for what we don't know, but hopefully it's not another struggling winger because as you said, there is more than enough of those guys, no mace at Appleton's here. But what do you do, his money and kind of get a better caliber player, though? What are you trying to shoot for the moon's moon a little bit? Oh, you mean like, you mean like packaged to brusque for someone better? Not even that, but just like, say you move him out in like a money move, right? And then that frees you up to better player..

"You'd rather have a young guy in your own system who's cheaper, development may be become, again, like if you get like a guy like Yamamoto or Appleton, what's like their ceiling, right? 30 point guy, ten, 15 goals, maybe you hope Steen becomes that. Maybe that's just jumping the gun for a guy with a small sample size, but I think if you're the broods, you'd much rather use a trade chip in Nebraska as part of a larger package to get. Again, guys, we've said countless signs are for a hurdle, a guy on defense. I think he'd rather do that. And if a guy like stinky kind of plug in that hole in that third line and be another productive middle 6 guy that can chip in offensively, then maybe that's a solid solution there to replace Deborah's in terms of just his spot in the lineup. Yes. And one thing about depth players is they're going to need them and this I'm coming stretch. 5 games in 7 days starting today Thursday. The wild, then you go to Tampa, then you go to Washington, then you come home against Montreal, you're then home again against Philly and your home against Nashville, but that's not exactly in the 5 days, 7 days span, but it's still a game coming up. And it's like a 7 7 game home stand. So yeah, the schedule ramps up. And they still haven't even announced where these new games are going until like February. You click ahead to February and it's still nothing. No, I didn't. I didn't even realize they're home a bunch. Yeah. A ton. I was just looking at the opponents I wasn't looking at the I'm on a daily basis here. I'm not looking at the time as a flat circle. Yeah, time doesn't exist anymore. But they are going to be jam packed with games. Which is why, again, I think there's a huge stretch for Oscar steam, where you can carve out a legit role for yourself in these next few games. And also with the goaltending too, because January 12th is coming up soon, which is the date that they kind of had circle for two to ask another thing we have to watch. So this upcoming strategy is going to be very, very fun. Lots of things to watch for and games to watch. You know, it's funny, it's a complete opposite of December, where we were kind of sitting at home December nights being like, what do we do? Now it's like, well, don't we do? There's so many things to do. So anyways, Connor, before we go, what can the people look forward to over at BSG? Yeah, it's obviously been a very busy week. We've been breaking down all of the key moments from the bruins winning streak. We looked at secondary scoring expectations for Oscar Steen. I'm sure we'll see more guys get reps going forward..

"Anyways being good. What the hell is this? How do they disrespect very border by talking about uggs, Brian Kelly and TikTok? There's all we've talked about. That's pretty much been it. Anyways, Oscar Steen doing so much better. Now, and I think Oscar seems funny, I've been getting a lot of people messaging me and sending tweets to me being like, why is an Oscar seaman lineup for a while? And I was kind of go I don't know. I don't know why. Because he looked every and Bruce Cass mentioned this every time he's come up in the lineup. He's looked better and better, but they continuously try Carson coolman there or they put other guys in different positions, but feels like with Jake de brus going on the COVID protocol list, this is like the time for steam to shine. And it was pretty evident on Tuesday night when he batted in that goal, but even past the goal. I just think he compliments coil and felina really well on that third line. But some people are saying you should be even higher in the lineup. Some people are saying he could even be a top 6 guy. I don't know how you fit him in there unless you need Craig Smith down. I don't know. I'm interested to hear your thoughts on this. Yeah, I mean, I think right now, even if you're just mapping out projections and like let's say you down the road, you deal de brusque for we'll say as a package for a top 6 center or for a defenseman like if you're worried about that vacancy left there on that third line when the brush is gone. I'm sure the bruins have to be encouraged by what you saw from a galaxy in that third line role, right? Because again, it's great for him to get on the score. She get rewarded finally by getting that goal, even though it was a bit of an odd one, but beyond just that, I mean, you just look at just the eye test and the way he plays. I mean, he kind of fits with whatever kind of line combination you have on that third or fourth line because he plays pretty straight line hockey. He let all bruins forwards and hits and the game on Tuesday, which for some ruins fans is like the ultimate. So he's got that like, you know, he's not the biggest dude, but he's still 5 9, almost 200 pounds though, but we'll throw his weight around be the first guy in the four check, but I think you watch the rest of his game, make smart passes and transition. You know, his has few clean entries, but also, and the offensive zone, and he's with a guy like Coyle who, as we know, likes to hold onto the pod possess the puck, wait for some of those chances to develop. You watch our Cristina, he's always like in between the dots. He's always in the crease, or he's always waiting for kind of like a one timer look in soft areas of the ice. So he does a great job at identifying that, which you have to imagine is he continues to feel more comfortable about the NHL level. I'm not saying the guy is going to be a 20 goal scorer, but if he, you know, over the span of an 82 game pace.

"Speaking of Boston accents, how about Brian Kelly? Yeah. Dropping that dude. Some people were like, oh, maybe it's a joke. And I was like, that was not said as a joke. That was not completely serious. And that dude's just like completely frazzled going down there. He probably thinks like going to Louisiana's like going to like the Popeyes over by Fenway. And it's far from it, pal. So you go from, where's it even from Chelsea? He's from Chelsea, right? Yeah, he's from mass. I know that. So he goes from that to having like Caleb crawdad on like that awful introduction he had for the basketball game that then doubling down about Boston on having accents. Like, dude, literally like, if you ask people, what's maybe the most discernible accent? It's like probably the New York of Boston, right? What do you do 100%? You idiot. That dude just southern's pretty discernible too. Like this, you know? That sounds like a molasses. I love me some Popeyes fried chicken. Yeah. You did a frigging bed of job than Brian Kelly doing his introduction down to the basketball game. I'm so ready to get some Reddit down here real soon. It's like shut up. Brian Kelly lost his fan banner captain privileges by disrespecting the entire Commonwealth of Massachusetts. So yes, you mentioned how you mentioned you mentioned Chelsea. It is not Chelsea. It's Everett. Everett. He's actually denied he's denied access to the Texas roadhouse and Everett now. His face. Or encore. Yes. Can't go to court anymore. He's done. No, I'm totally for banishing him from any he's a Massachusetts history or anything. I mean, ridiculous. By the way, I work in Atlanta technically, so I technically can do a southern accent. That's like part of my thing. Part of my thing. I say y'all now, even though I'm working for my fucking Brian Kelly as well. I'm going to tell you. I'm a complete fraud. I hope no one clips that. Anyways, I loved Sarah's reply to Brian Kelly's thing that you had to go to REI the other day, which must have just put your tongue in a pretzel. Yeah, it's not. It's not fun to say it. It was one of the first catch my catch myself and try not to do it now. That your RA on your dorm floor, like I can't say that. Yeah, it's bad. It's really, really bad. So, Brian Kelly, audio. Speaking of the accents, it's funny last night I was gonna tweet this and I didn't because I was like, oh, that's kinda lame. But do you remember a few years ago they did like a funny or die skit with Tom Brady? Yeah, if you're from Boston and he's clearly doesn't have an accent.

"As a tool I think of it as the most mysterious and complex and transformative of, of all the tools in my toolbox, when I think materiality because, you know, I do color material and finish but colors, it's a part colors. Transformative, if you change the gloss level of that color, it it also changes it, but the color itself, the Nuance of color is incredibly powerful. So if you, if you weren't doing this, if you weren't designing and playing with color, what would you be doing? It's interesting because in college, I had a double major in pre-med and interior design and I really didn't know which one I wanted to do, but I felt that they were similar because I think that I think that you have to love observation, you have to love experimentation in both of those fields, but most of all, you have to be empathic, you have to be empathic as a doctor, you have to be in passive as someone who does color. So I think, if I didn't do color, I thought I think another life. I'd love to be a neuroscientist. Well, you have a big Applause for me, right now for saying that it, that promotion and design are hand-in-hand, because I could not agree more, the sense of empathy, you have to love people and the opportunity to make, you know, a literal very physical tangible difference in somebody's life. So couldn't agree more there and I guess I don't know. Do you know, evil Steen know, she's the a neuroma. Scientist turned kind of interior designer or interior design consultant. And so she kind of saw that same convergence that you're describing home. And she was somebody had on the podcast. Yeah, I'll have to listen to that one. For sure. And I I I do think they're, they're deeply connected and it's what I love about it. You know, I often think that we diagnose space like, you, diagnose, and you're looking at all these different things. And I always talk about like I'm not doing emergency room color. I'm not doing triage on that color. You have to come to me earlier. You can't you can't tell me. It's just a Band-Aid because it doesn't work that way, right? That's funny. That's funny. Yeah, I my wife's a hairdresser and so there are people that come to her and they like, can you fix this song? And it's like oh you should have saw me before. You should have saw me before you put that in your hair, you know. Oh my God, I love that. What a great field to. Oh my gosh. Talk about transformation one. Oh yeah. Oh absolutely. I mean you can make someone feel like a million bucks and in about a half hour absolutely that's wonderful. I love before and afters. I mean I think as designed juice we all have this love of before and after you know and it's it's finding that potential and for me that's one of my passions starting the potential in people. I need the potential space finding the potential in communities. It just such a driving force. I love that finding the potential. I mean that that's a very powerful phrase because just the word potential in our industry. I don't think it gets used enough as soon as you said it. Just it really sunk in and I thought man that's probably what goes through. So many designers heads you know you enter a space and then the word potential is flashing right in front of you. Yes exactly. And I think it's probably what drives the the nonprofit is this idea that someone's decided that certain people get certain environments and others. Don't this idea that God, I believe beauty is a human, right? And that we have to fight for it for all and so we we as designers know how to Envision that potential and and have it be driven. Not from, I feel nothing that I do is driven from my point of view of oh I want to bless that. And this is about me. It's always about who we're serving, who, who were connecting with, to let it be a reflection of them. I think it's so vital for me. Yeah, the wage. I agree, I agree. You know, I think this idea of democratizing color and putting, you know, making that potential the potential with is as powerful as that word is. It's also if it's left unmet also has a very kind of like disappointing A vibe to it, right? I mean yes, you know like the worst thing you want to hear when you, you know, when you give up on something you know as though that had potential.

Past Covid Infections Don’t Confer Strong Enough Immunity, Study Finds, Underlining Need For Vaccines
"One of the first large studies exploring immunity from natural infection with covid nineteen researchers in denmark found some surprising trends including evidence that even those who previously contracted the disease should still get vaccinated in the study published march seventeenth in the medical journal. The lancet researchers took advantage of repeated corona virus test results from about four million people in order to how often those previously infected with sars covy to the virus that causes covid. Nineteen were reinfected. Since the test results were tied to people's health records. The scientists scientists could anonymous the data and compare those who tested positive during denmark's first covid nineteen wave last spring with those who tested positive during a second wave in the autumn that revealed key findings about reinfection rates in the country in the spring two percent of the five hundred thirty thousand plus people who were tested for sars cuvee to positive among them point six five percent tested positive again later that year compared to three point three percent of those who had tested negative during the first way that sets infection with sars covy to provides about eighty percent protection against reinfection. What's more there was no evidence that this immunity waned over the studies six month follow up period but when the researchers broke down the data by age they learned that this protection wasn't uniform. Protection was only forty seven percent for people over sixty five years old.

Yeah and i'd love to hear a little bit more about that. Because i think everyone probably has their own unique origin story about how they came to historical costuming. How did it all start for you. I believe you kind of started in caused play to if i'm not incorrect. That's exactly it. I initially started in. 'cause play. I noticed i was doing a lot of costuming for some of my favorite power. Females like the tana princess leia. you know Firefly characters and that's where i started end but the real one that i really want to make was katrina from sleepy hollow particularly that black and white striped dress that she works for about fifteen seconds in the end. I initially made it in college end to turn out right but you know i loved it enough that it. I just realized that my favorite movie costumes were all historically based and once. I realized that it was really easy to just kind of focus on that i kind of went. The steam punk route and did a lot of eighties bustle dresses. One of which. I got into the new york times style section when i was in college and that gave me the like the positive energy boost i needed to religious focus all my energies into historical. And that's not to say. I still don't do 'cause play in fact i'm working on a cost play right now for another power female a sister of battle for more than forty k which seems like a completely turnaround but to me. It's just you know more of the same like you know detailed female power stuff and i'm not cost player or historical costumer of but i come from a career as a costume supervisor in a costume designer i started in theater and then i got into film and tv but i have this just incredible appreciation and fascination with these communities both the 'cause play community and historical costuming community. They're not necessarily mutually exclusive as you attest to you. Know they are really quite intermingled. A lot of the times. Even though. I don't participate in these communities. I really really anxious. I just think it's so cool do so for those who may not know. Can you please tell us a little bit more about this worldwide historical costume community and cause play community and maybe just kind of start by defining those things. 'cause i don't think everyone may know the difference. That's a really good point. So i say cost play his costumer like everybody knows but so cost player. Is someone who makes costumes for movies. Tv shows games sort of like established Ip already out there. So you know someone who's a cost player making a princess leia costume versus on historical customer may take a museum piece or a picture from say like an old fashioned panel and try to recreate those so it's different goals so the cost player tends to try to make things as screen accurate as possible or take their own spin on a two degree while the historical customer is all about trying to get things to look historically accurate or correct the historical time period. But these are vague goals. You know everybody has their own specific goals when it comes to costuming which is really one of the most delicious parts of it. Yeah and i think just seeing how many all these people all around the world who have been introduced to through instagram. That's how i became familiar with you and a lot of your peers was just through instagram. And the para social media but admits so many wonderful people and so many people who have incredibly different approaches to as you mentioned these same historical or cause play approaches so just so cool so you yourself have built this incredible online presence for yourself you instagram and youtube as you mentioned at so steen is your handle. And you're really just showing all of these various historical dress projects that you've created at your in home studio which is just incredible. I love you can tell us a little bit about your selection process. What is your inspiration between starting these different projects so omen inspiration from everywhere and think. There's always about fifteen different projects night years going through my head at any point in time so a lot of times. What'll happen is i will learn something about or i will be able to actually procure a certain fabric. So for instance right now. I'm working on the dressed. That marie antoinette whereas in the two thousand and six the couple of film marie-antoinette in the chapel or the church which has the strawberries on it. This particular fabric is woven in italy. It's based off of seventeen eighties. Waistcoat in a museum collection. Somewhere in this particular fabric was actually used in about three different films including the original dangerous liaisons movie and it is so hard to get if you can even buy it. It usually runs about three hundred euros a meter so for me. That is like you know. I might be a doctor but i can't. I can't spend that much right on top of it. It wasn't even like procurable. Until very recently i was able to actually buy it because Not the original. But some other company on oetzi started making a knockoff of it. And i don't know how legal his is but on the other hand. It's based off of original waistcoat. And the you know the trademark on run out like two hundred fifty years ago so the fact is you know this. Other companies started offering. It was very similar. The colors are almost identical slightly. Different here and there but it was so close and the fact that they were able to offer it at a significant discount from the original price meant that it went from being pipedream in the back of my head to something. I could actually do now so a lot of times. It'll be that i finally find. The fabric actually comes available or in the case of the strawberry dress which i turn into which is strawberry regency dress. I always want to make address. But i really didn't like the roses on the original inventory. Not because i dislike roses. Or i think it's ugly. I've just digitized so many roses but then suddenly the strawberry gus went. I like i can just turn those roses and strawberries. And no one's gonna care or mind. So i was able to do that as well. So it's all about what becomes available to.

'Dude, I'm Done': When Politics Tears Families And Friendships Apart
"Now you have likely seen it or felt it yourself. Now A recent survey shows how the nation's bitter political divide is taking a toll on friendships as NPR's Tuvia Smith reports with political polarization hitting a fever pitch. Even decades long relationships are caving under the pressure. It's been happening everywhere on social media, and in really life did straight up there. Dude, I'm done Lose my number that Shimada Davis from L. A. I just hung up on my end, and I proceeded to just block them in every possible way. Joanie Jensen from New York. I hate families, everything but I just don't know and Ricardo de Forest from Florida, there among the many Americans dumping friends over politics. It's one thing to disagree about tax policy, says Davis. But this is deeper. It's about morality and justice. As a black man. He says he simply could not abide his friend of 25 years down playing police brutality. It's like if this is your attitude. I don't respect you. Now I don't because people are really dying. It's also that kind of moral absolute to Jensen, retired professor and sexual assault survivor who cut off a friend of 40 years who was being cavalier about the allegations against Trump's then Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. He was going off flight. Oh, you drank the Kool Aid Cabin on boy. He didn't do anything. I said if this is his core ethics, I don't want that kind of person in my life Conservatives, Of course. Khun B. Justus, quick to spurn the liberals in their lives who clashed with their core values like life or the biggie for Ricardo de Forest Liberty. They sold our country out. This election is about the soul of what America is. He can be a free country. Andy, a socialist state to forest, a 61 year old steelworker cut off several cousins who he calls hard core Trump haters all they can do it. From the races on man bed on man raises, you know, blowing spittle in and veins popping out of their heads Yolk soy Latino, But I guess I'm some sort of horrible races because I like Trump. Ridiculous. We are seeing more political polarization today than at any point in modern history. Jocelyn Kiley, with the Pew Research Center says about 80% of Americans now have few or no friends across the aisle, and the animosity goes both ways. Democrats are a little bit more likely to say they'd end a friendship. But Republicans, maybe a little bit less likely to say they have friends on the other side, so it may not be all that differential. Everybody is doing this Tania Israel The University of California psychology professor runs workshops on cross the aisle conversations, she says. Both sides have big blind spots when it comes to the morality of their own side, and they all view themselves as eminently fair. And right. When I say all these things, I think I found fairly reasonable and see the other side as irrational. Just something wrong with these people. Whether conservatives like the forest or lefties like Joni Jensen, I said, Oh, my God, he really is brain. Wass. Everyone Tanya, Israel says could use a little more intellectual humility were flattening people out, you know, in terms of our view of them and not really seeing the full complexity of people on the other side. It's exactly what Georgia truck driver Jon Langford says his brother who's gay did to him. He went off on the sand. Essentially, I'm a racist and a homophobe. Just because I'm a trump supporter, knowif stands or butts. Ain't completely cut me out of his life, Langford says he's trying to not do the same and toe hang onto his friends. On the other side. I could assume that anybody that supports Biden is a firm believer that it's okay to murder a baby, but I don't From the other end of the political spectrum. Connecticut business consultant Jeff Maren Steen is also straining to stay friends with some trump supporters. Despite all the invective and insults, you know you live They're all the same or these ad hominem attacks. Maren Steen no longer talks to some of them with others. He just doesn't talk politics. It just feels like the healthiest thing for me to do at the moment. But, you know, I suppose the risk is that I'm just retreating into my own information bubble with people who think just like me. Indeed, experts say more conversation, not less is what's needed to heal the
