"I forget. That I'm setting myself up. When I'm talking to my best friend, I thought this was a safe place. I never ordered bearing your soul if you will. You ever ordered a DoorDash from two places and have a race between him? Yes. Really? What? Oh yeah, sure. They get there at the same time, you have to lie to the Uber eats driver say the DoorDash drivers your buddy. It's crazy. You never done that? No. You simply must. Check my favorite coming home from the bars, same idea. You DoorDash when you're coming home, you get an Uber home from the bar. And then you got the wings, just waiting for you. But I need to go. Right there on the floor. Man. It's excellent ideas. Once again, no thanks very much to the east Carolina university for this important study. I kind of would have liked to have seen the ad for this one to get participants. I'd like to see what the 85 year old had to say. Well, think about it. If you're 85, the whole pot revolution kicked in in the mid 60s. Oh, sure it did. So that's a long time ago. But we all know pot in the mid 60s is not the pot of today. Right. Or vice versa. The other guy goes, hey, this is great. I get high and it helps my arthritis. And if I add teeth, I'd be able to enjoy this food. Well, speaking of marijuana, Chris, you mentioned this thing. This is an interesting story out of New York. The first legal dispensary for recreational marijuana has opened in New York City. New York joined nearly two dozen other states in the United States to legalize recreational marijuana in March of 2021. After nearly two years, the first state sanctioned dispensary finally rang up its first sale, less than a month ago. But unlike many other states, New York has reversed its first round of retail licenses for nonprofits as well a reserved rather its first round of retail licenses for nonprofits as well as applicants with marijuana convictions and their relatives. In other words and acknowledgment of the inequities produced by the country's war on drugs. Oh, Christ. Instead of just getting an efficient system, they've gone to this whacked out. Yeah, the first guy that I was reading about this man, he had been had served time in jail for what's the not for profit weed stuff. I don't know. Like are there charities that give weed to people? Yeah, dope, dope for hope. That was excellent. You never heard of that? It's the same kind of weed. They just sell it to you in a tin can. You open it up. It's wish for a bong. And that's what it sounds like, right? Yeah. My dad, my dad used to say, no dope. No hope. That's what he said. You're probably didn't drink, but he was an avid drug user. You like the pod. Yeah. Okay. All right. Made to have a little cottage industry. What did he call it? Dope, I think. Yeah. And he was, he would help others procure it. But he did not drive. Exactly. So he didn't have to come to him. Yes. Yes. And we also called Hershey's chocolate syrup. It was in a can, then you had to open it with a church key. We call that chocolate dope. Okay, don't know why. I don't know where that came from. Oh, okay. Interesting. Be sure to get some dope. When you go to the store. So in almost two, it's taken New York almost two years to open up the first dispensary. This is the kind of efficiency and it seems. That's interesting. But now you can go. You can just go and buy. Apparently. With this one store. Or you can, I don't know, go to Washington square park. Yeah, waiting for your man. A lot quicker. I wonder if I'd like to seek some of the advertising. But like a Statue of Liberty with a blunt. Yeah, something. Or the I heart NY, but it's a podcast. I've got to do that. What are they doing? So we'll see what happens. But how many states did you say now have it legal? What did I say? It's over half, right? I think. Two dozen. This is hovering around half. Okay. Yes. Did you get back to our discussion earlier? I wonder if you've got Audrey Hepburn eating a donut in front of the dispensary. Breakfast at whatever it's called. What about token the Tiffany's?

"The gray market. This idea of these bands. And it's hard to explain to people who don't live in New York City, but there are these vans that essentially sell weed out in the open, and they've been doing it for a couple of years. There's certainly one on my commute home. And it's kind of wild to see because it was illegal for so long, but it's just happening out in the open. And what they do is they don't actually sell it, right? They accept donations. And I'm curious as to how this affects the gray market and how you think full widespread legalization here in the city and here in the state, what happens to the gray market, which is returned pretty substantial. Yeah, I mean, it's a really tricky issue, right? I remember, you know, when I was a kid, walking into the Washington square park, all the illegal sales being done there. David Lee Roth, I remember it got arrested. He was fine for buying weed. So even diamond Dave couldn't do it. But now it's everywhere, even Wall Street bankers, you know, if you walk outside of UBS, you see these weed trucks sitting there. It's questionable how good their stuff is. They are all going to have to be shut down, but the problem is, the reason they legalized it, the reason they gave these people licenses is to try and reverse the damage done through the war on drugs and they're going to have to do a little bit more of that damage when they shut down these other vendors. UBS PR is calling right now. Yeah. I'm curious, math too about usage. I mean, we talk a lot here about sales being legal and the idea that in legally you can assume this in your home or a private space, of course we know a lot of people. Are you sampling something right now? What's what's happening, Matt? I'm talking with another. I'm talking with another customer who's also a Bloomberg television viewer. Oh yeah. He's just made a purchase. Oh my God. Can you tell us what you know? Well, I got some really good friends. I'm really excited about

"To you do not give up on yourself. Protect yourself, do and you deserve good things. You deserve love. And if these people that you want that you love can't love you equally, you can still love them at a distance. I'm going to get you on two more things in the, we're going to go over time. I'm just telling people right now. After your mom died, as you say, three days after the inspection was greenlit, you found clippings among your mom's belongings, clippings of you, story, stories about you. Real quickly, how did that make you feel? It was, oh man, I don't want to cry. It was, it made me feel really, really happy that she loved me. Even though she didn't really know how to show it in the way that I needed it. I knew that in her heart I was still there. Just like she was still in my heart, and that made me feel really good. And. Oh, please, never apologize for feeling the feels as the kids say. But elegance, I think it was the story in The Associated Press where you're I think you're sitting on a bench in Washington square park. And the opening of this of this profile on you is about you talking about 20 years ago, I was homeless on that bench. I walked down these sidewalks hungry. I walked hungry down these streets. You know, I did this down these streets, you and I are sitting here right now talking about your Golden Globe nominated film. How does that make you feel being at this part of an incredible journey? Oh my God, I feel blessed by God. I grew up in a very religious household. And I was told that people like me were an abomination. And that I could never expect anything good out of life because I wasn't putting anything good in life being myself. So to have a movie that's inspired by the moment, the lowest moment I was in where I really, truly believe these things, you know, when I, when I was in the homeless shelter, I set a prayer for this. For this moment to be at a place where I could thrive instead of being in that constant survival loop, never having enough to actually thrive, but just enough to get through the next day. I pray to God to end this in my life in this cycle and to show me how to get somewhere better. And I didn't know it at the time, but God had already answered my prayers. I had already said yes. I was already by virtue of having that thought. I was doing the work to get here. So to get here now, I feel like

Sean Feucht Drops In After His Times Square 'Let Us Worship' Event

"Ladies and gentlemen Sean Foyt, Sean, I can't believe you are in the studio. In the flesh. Every time I've interviewed you on this program, you've been in a car on a hilltop in California. Right? Yeah. And you are in New York City. Welcome to New York, my friend. Thank you. I was just Alvin and I were just telling my audience our version of what happened last night. And it was so beautiful and a friend of mine, my wilkerson said, oh, and when the sun went down while we're worshiping, that was the beginning of Roche Shaun at the beginning of the Jewish new year. And I said, that was not planned. That was amazing. To be worshiping Jesus in the middle of Times Square. Publicly, beautifully. So last night we saw the film, the film super spread is fantastic. The only part I didn't like is my part. I'm in it folks. I apologize, you know what I mean? I was just very bullish. I was bloated and confused. But they put it in any way, because but Sean, just tell us, what happened yesterday? Man, it was wild. I mean, like you mentioned, you know, being in Times Square, the place where the ball drops, the place where the eyes of the world look at during new years. And we were there actually during the real new years. Is that not amazing? Yeah, it's so cool. And what was even more wild, I mean, there's so many different threads to weave, but when we first came in 2020 and we were on the West Coast and we were doing lettuce worship and of course, you know, people were, there was a narrative from the media that it was like this anti lockdown anti government protest. It wasn't that at all. It was just like, hey, we're The Church of Jesus Christ. We need to rise up. This is a dark time people are fearful. People are filled with, you know, this chaos is confusion, drug and alcohol use of skyrocketing, suicides, this guy rocketing, we need to worship. And so then when I had it in my heart, like we got to go to New York City. This is a city I love. I've been coming here since I was a kid, and when we showed up in Washington square park under the big arch, there was a policeman there, a chief of police that met me and he said, what are you guys doing here? And I said, well, you know, we're here to worship. And at that time, protesters had been raging through that park. And it was just a place of chaos and violence. And he said, well, we could use the church here.

Sean Feucht: "Jesus Christ 'Superspreader'"

"So you are mocked by Rolling Stone magazine. Some little editor there was really psyched that they came up with Jesus Christ super spreader. And let me tell you that this is going to be, I mean, it's kind of like when they said to Donald Trump about fake news and he decided, okay, I'm going to embrace this term fake news. I'm going to make it my term. So super spreader, you decided to make it the title of the film, which is brilliant. And I've only seen clips of the film, but it is amazing. Now who made this film? How did this come about? Well, I've been I was approached by vice and showtime and all these different crazy left outlets that wanted to do a documentary. And of course, we knew how they were going to tell the story. So we just thought, you know what? And then I had some other Friends approach being they're like, hey, what if we just followed around with the camera and we kind of told the story and the full story, which I think is important for people to see, I mean, you know, of course you added so much depth to the film, bringing historical context and sharing your history of what you've seen through your studies and everything. But then we also had a lot of people that were trolls that we interviewed. We had people telling their side of the story from, you know, how much they hated what we're doing or criticize what we're doing. We have Harvard theologian professors on there, a guy that ranted against me in a whole lecture, you know? We have, and then at the same time, we have these crazy testimonies that are undeniable of people that we're going to kill themselves. And all of a sudden they're walking through Washington square park in New York City and they throw their suicide medicine down at the altar and they get baptized, you know, and they leave in freedom. And so you have this incredible journey where it's not like a cheesy face film. I mean, it really is controversial. It's raw, you see the depth of despair in the moments that we wrestle with, but you also see the incredible breakthroughs that got brought.

"Yeah, I'll join in on that quote. I want him to be able to explain that. Now, I don't know his personal situation with his wife. I don't know how many children they have if they have any children. But I got to believe that if they were copulating in fornicating at a normal rate, that they'd have a lot of kids, so I'm assuming that he doesn't use condoms long dong Silva that was his nickname at Yale law school. He was, he was always hot to trot. But I'm sure he probably decided, wow, Anita hill almost took me down. I almost didn't become a United States Supreme Court judge. Joe Biden saved me there, remember he was the chairman of the judiciary committee. He threw me lifelines. He shut down and needed help. He wouldn't even let the women come and testify on her behalf. He did me a solid. And then he probably started taking salt, Peter. Combos urge you, said, normal men have. You see, the women understand the men have the urges. That's why they buy pornography. Now, if all of a sudden you shut it down, I guarantee you, give it a few days. The guy, the guys will be saying, uncle, uncle, whatever you want, I'm Tapping out. What? You want me, you want me to go running around in Washington square park Union Square park, you want me to go running around it to demonstration day sure? No doubt, I'll even wear my tidy whities.

You'll turn to be heard here on WABC rose. Well, thank you, Curtis. I just want to make another angle on this. You know, it's all very wonderful that we can deny them sex. But I think the real important thing is, let's go after all of these various states that are doing what they're doing. And economic wax because they're much more effective. A guy can, you know, he can live and he can go beyond the street and he get a good mother, a little whatever he wants. A little chippy, a little chip. Yeah, yeah. Whatever. Whatever he wants. But when you start hitting the economic thing of the states where we're not going to buy your oranges or what is about it, we're not going to travel there and we're not going to spend any money in those states. That's where it's really going to hurt. Don't pinch their balls. Keep them on your side, girls. Very good. Very good roads. Don't pinch their balls. Keep them on your side girls, right? Yep, and go out there and say, I ain't buying nothing from Michigan. No, in this state or that state, we're not going to travel there. We're going to fix up the car. We're going to tune it up and we're going to go local. And that way we have much more power over this draconian mess, which is taking over our country for far too long. I mean, I'm an old one. I'm 73 years old, all right? I've been around. I am so grateful for you were on those subways. But the difference is that when the kids would come to the cars, I would greet them in smile and talk to them and be kind. And we don't have to be kind to states, which are going to pull this. We got to pull their britches down

"Yeah, the reunion really just kind of blew me away because she always was the one. They always talk about the entire season. Everyone's talking about loyalty and telling me to my face. And I thought she was the only one that ever did that. She kind of did. I also just want to quickly say this comes up in all rally shows. People love to say like, tell us my face, just don't say it behind my back. I would not list a second in reality show because not only do I not want to know what people are saying behind my back, I also love to gossip and I think I would somehow turn out to be a villain. Not out of militia. It's because I enjoy it. I would love to be on a reality show. Would you ever want to be on one like this? We're just follows you. Yeah, that's what I'd want. Yeah. Better than a competition show. Yeah, the only competition show that I really want to go on is amazing race. Oh yeah, that would be a good one. Oh, I love it. What's that since it was premiered in Washington square park? Remember that? Celebrity podcast duo goes on. Amazing race. I love it. Stay tuned. But Lisa, Lisa. I did think, however, she was really good with her boys and honestly a really good mother. She's always making sure that we're taking care of sending goals, you know, building self esteem yeah, there seems to be like the editors we're trying to make it seem like she was a little bit of an absentee mother because she worked so hard. And I just didn't enjoy that narrative. It's like whatever she has a job. She still is obviously attentive to them. Exactly. And then the number of union when they asked about her voice, she was crying. She was like, this is the one thing that makes me emotional, so don't even for a second. I think that they're not everything I think about all night and all day. Yeah. And her boys have their little boy boss brand fresh wool. Oh yeah. So weird. And I do not to question the integrity of their branded work ethic, but I do wonder if this 9 year old and 15 year old actually developed a men's grooming brand. Yeah, I'm also curious about that. I was like, whatever, but Lisa, you just have another company now. You've just made another company. Yeah, that's exactly the vibe that I got. It's a great way to market it. Tapping into the teenage market might be an area of that's like not really tapped just based on what I know about teenage boys in the grooming habits. And then she and her husband own a tequila company. Yes, which I think it's funny. They would always ask her, does God care that you own a tequila company? And she's always like, no, God I've never care. Because she's the most active Mormon from the group, I believe. The only active Mormon. Yeah. She was saying at one point that she kind of has her own path that she goes on kind of she does it on her own,.

Whatever you can find, also, but given everything we've said, right? The cocoa of it all, the weather. Maybe this is LSAT time. Whether you want it to be or not. And then when you're on the other side of this, you go back out looking. Because what I think I gather is like, you just want some fun and something to do. 'cause you're like, I'm working LSAT. I wanna be dating. Maybe it's not dating right now. Maybe it's something else. What are some other things? They always say, is when you're not looking that somebody comes along. So it's like hanging out with your Friends, being around people who get you people who refill your well as they say, you know? And then you know you're gonna be sitting there and then somebody cue can walk by. You're gonna be like, well, hello nurse. And then. Yeah, Andy, I said that. What does it say? And then it's like, you know, and then something can happen. But I think, you know, not only people in the middle, also if you were doing online stuff, you just got to set your parameters. Manhattan only. I only want to meet people on the island. That's fine. Manhattan is huge. How many people live there? 8 million? You'll find somebody. Or New York or SMS. I just have Manhattan, I'm very wrong. When I said 8 million, but the point is you could find at least two Q people. That you like that aren't trash. But I also interested in this idea that she's putting out a vibe that attracts brooklynites. She's like, what am I putting out there? That people from Brooklyn key first of all. Which I don't think is necessarily a bad thing. I mean maybe also like you're attracted to them as well. I actually don't rule out Brooklyn. And maybe because I lived there the whole time I was in New York. Well, did you date anybody who lived uptown? I also, Nicole lived in Harlem the whole time. I never saw her place. Really? Green point, maybe once or twice? Yeah. I never saw her place. Where would you all meet up then? In Manhattan. In Chelsea. You would just meet up downtown and hang out outside out in the world. I mean. In the world, yeah. That's wild. Yeah, see each other, you know, in rehearsal on stage. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Say, bye bye. Honestly, that is New York living, right? In my head and I'm like, oh, wait, I mostly hung out with friends at places in New York. It's only in Los Angeles that I go to someone's house. Right. Right, right. Apartment or whatever. We would have people at our place from time to time, but that's 'cause we had space. 'cause didn't we briefly do like a ladies riding thing? Were you in that? Yeah. Was I? It was like, were you there in Bethany? And maybe Julius? Yeah. Am I making that up? Okay, then I don't know honey. Somebody was at my house. It was like a weekly, like writing, you know, thing. I was not there. That's true. That's accurate. How many times have been? Harlem is perfect. I don't like you gentrifying it, but also I really like that you're sticking to your guns about not wanting to meet anyone in Brooklyn. Wait, wait. I have actual advice. So this is the thing that I miss about New York may be the most. No, the most is getting food past 8 30. Which I can't do in Los Angeles. It's all early bird specials are nothing. Or I guess you have to cook for yourself. Sick. So that's number one. Number two, reading on the train. I really had to like force myself to read here in Los Angeles. But on the train, it would be like a good if I was going from green point to harm. That's a good hour, 45 minutes to an hour you have to yourself try dating some brooklynites and do your LSAT prep on the train. Okay, we love this. Okay, utilizing that commute. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That way, if the person's a drip, even if that is, you got an hour and then an hour back studying time done. That's true. Okay, yeah, multitask. Okay, multitasking. And that way, yeah, you've gotten something done. Two hours of logic problems. Fun. I hated the LSATs. Oh yeah, I forgot you took those. They really, I really hated them. It's like a lot of logic, if I remember correctly, a lot of they give you like the rules like Joe will only give a sandwich to Janet. Janet will only take a sandwich from Gregory. And then you have to figure out who gave sandwiches to who or whatever. It's like a lot of weight. Really? That's what those are the questions. If I remember that, that was terrible. That's a. What does that have to do with the law? Well, it's about logic. Can you understand logic? A lot of it was like trying to parse because that's what it is. I mean, supposedly, I mean, really, what the law is is just like, maybe someone should be taken out. This is just tested basic logic. Basic logic skills would be good. Well then you find out the law is actually just powerful people just tell you what to do. But then also it's just funny because she also says she was a philosophy student. So obviously when she was like philosophy undergrad, and then law school, which was the same thing you did. I did until I had a panic attack and I'm like, I can't go to law school this fucking sucks. But it seems like philosophy and law 'cause it is what, just like arguments, is that why philosophy goes into law a lot? No, what happened was basically like when academia became corporatized every humanity's had to like justify themselves like no, no, no, it's not just we're not just like making the world better and making smarter and more interesting people. Also, you can use us like philosophy as like had to rebrand. I'm like, yo, you can use us as a pre law program. Yeah, yeah, 'cause we do arguments too, right? Like, real sweaty, like, you know, the chair of the department, just like wiping the flop sweat off their far heads just like and so like a lot of philosophy departments rebranded themselves as pre law programs. So that's how that flowed together. But I don't think it really is a precursor to it. But it's a lot of arguing about what things are but we don't have to talk about this right now was to share she's freezing. Let me go so I can turn my heat off. Put on a blanket. Also, also for the listeners, so you're sitting in a beautiful wicker chair with a really high back. It looks very regal. And it looks like does it have very high arms? It does. It does. That's like here. Is that one of your thrift store finds? Yeah, actually got it from an estate sale from a prop warehouse. Wow. Yeah. There's two of them. And a really big fight occurred when I brought them to the house. 'cause I was like, why these now? I love chairs. So much. We have so many. We have so many. We have so many and I bought these and they definitely fit in the house, but some rearranging needed to happen. And I had a suggestion to move a dresser that belongs to my man out of our bedroom. And he thought it represented me pushing him out. Of my priorities. It was a whole thing. We are good now. 'cause you're trying to imagine when you said there were two..

"The stonewall inn was a dump. That's a direct quote from our guest today. You go there in the 60s and dance and of a blast, but what you wouldn't want to do was order a cocktail or mixed drink. Now, this is a detail that I'd never heard before. J tool says that the stonewall inn was such a rundown bar that it barely had any running water. And so none of the glasses that they serve drinks in really ever got cleaned. Jay was nearby in Washington square park when the uprising began that night in 1969. She'd been living there since the age of 13 after her parents kicked her out of the house, and when she and the others who live in the park heard what was going on, they rushed over. Jay describes it as one of the best nights of her life. It was just utter madness, and the most exciting way. She got to yell at cops and throw things at them, and for once she got to see them scared of her. By that point in her life, most of her ribs have been broken by cops. Some multiple times. And so this night was something special. Something to celebrate and take advantage of. For over 25 years, J tool lived on the streets of New York City and the miraculous part of her story. Literally miraculous is that the girl she had a crush on and dated for a brief but intense moment back then. That relationship through the blessing of the Internet and chance was rekindled just recently,.

But i was really excited before i knew. Do i really got a blast. To do on to yet would have great. It would have been so fun. And i'm did love show. Here's my point. Ask you about that show with the first time you play the scene with evan. 'cause i kinda wanna know about weather when this magical stop and it's one thing be blurry is interested in the chemistry and romantic things. But and it's one of the things is podcast started on. Was this question. I always had about. Rem which was the first thing they played in the church. I really wondered whether those four guys who've been in other bands and everything. If the first moment they looked at each other and new holy shit. This is totally different. I've gotten to ask up to this Yeah mills new. Bach is very heavy. Met peter spots very analytical and so you thought new these elements were china together but yet mill said he looked around and he was kind of heck. Oh holy shit this is. This is special because he that you know he went and got bill buried and we should do this thing with these like he said that there was something about my and michael But when you and evan. I played a scene together. Did you have like a. Oh fuck moment at all. I was actually auditioning because You know. I got to audition the everybody else. Who was cast. And evan came in and he he just know i could go talk about line ratings but he just he he he did a line in a way that i just never would really it an an and in the script that you know. He's my agent. And and i'm not working. I have no money. And he says threaten offer for you seen whatever and he goes. I held off the most jewish new york. Jewish at i was i started laughing. We finished evan. Laughed at tom. we will hate that line and we still twenty years. Later will still outline if you if you save an actor. You don't wanna put too much pressure on but then you say here's an example. The guy got himself a seven year job with one fucking minor but it's dros sometimes somebody comes in and they just wreck you at. You're just like well. That's that it's all well. It's because in the end it's not lying reading in vienna. It was like it it. That was the character in a nutshell. It was like that was the whole. He just got carrying. Put it in that line. We saw it at. It was like you never like that. I i love watching all sorts of friendships. Onscreen it's just something. I'm always drawn to and like that particular dynamic of the two of you. Which isn't like a traditional friendship. Dynamic of the you was something that really mattered to me on that on that show very i- always love working with him and could say why don't say that to try to funny or anything. It's evidently he's very brave. I mean on its own zone way may might he was. He was always willing to tell the truth. I thought you know he's always waiting to talk to you. I really love that about him and his vanity. There's he ought he may have vanity. but there's there's a vanity in the way he plays those seats and it's so appealing right because there isn't that even though he's a theater accu i've spent time with him a little bit. I could see. He's fully aware of what he sacked us to do. Yes and yet is willing to sacrifice. It goes back to the team thing. Here's another thing. I want to ask you because you you did. Get the live one thing. I think that. I'm i've i've i've got to spend one day in my life with harold. Bloom really incredible to get to spend. I spent like three hours with him at his at. I was trying to write an article about quinton. About being a filmmaker in the shadow of quentin after pulp fiction and about an called at the anxiety of tarantino and i really want to understand the anxiety of influence and so i read the ratings of influence and i read the other shit and as you know it still fucking hard to understand because he changes his terminology old and And you know his hold. The whole idea of misreading is like totally mind boggling. So i wrote him a letter and i was like feser. Here's why am here's what i'm trying to do. Can we come to my house when the house on on on washington square park that one on washington square park and i went over there and spend three hours and we had a young grad assistant. Whittam the whole deal and he sat he reclined and he talked with my own. My god the whole thing was just it was. We'll see if tarantino himself as canonical download. The whole chris fantastic. I came away understanding this much more. Until what did you get out of interacting with that guy. And how did it shape way. You looked at reading and and writing and making art because to get to your album. You know i think the the today. I was hearing these influences. And and really digging it off and i heard everything from obviously stone templates but also i was hearing like dean warm in there and stuff luna hearing all this shit that you would have listened to but i was thinking about influence and it got back to bloom. So what did you get from from him. As i two ways. I mean the first one is very utilitarian because it was in blooms class that he said he wasn't class..

Not really even zone subject area in the k. Through twelve system you sort of pick up information about natural history. You know maybe insci- class or in english class or some other class but it is not its own or it's an elective but it's not important enough to be taught as a standalone subject from k. Through twelve at night. Thank this does a real disservice to individuals. 'cause wow it's so enraging but it also does a real disservice to the world if you think globally end the issues that we're facing an how knowledge is A real factor in advocacy and policy making and people's opinions perspectives about. What's going on in the world. I couldn't agree more with that. Do you think people naturalists burners sort of discount the worth of urban environments because. There's the sort of obsession with what is pristine. Or what is you know. Perfect habitat or whatever and sometimes we might look at a place like washington square park which might have sidewalks certain amount of concrete there and think. Well this isn't a good place for nature because it's developed in some sense when the that matter is like nothing there is like no ecosystem anywhere in the world that isn't touched in some way by by humans it is pristine in that sense that ideal sense. I feel like we sort of have to get past that. I'm curious if you have any sort of opinions on that. So many. But i mean i think there is this sort of myth. Maybe that needs to be busted right there were ever pristine yes places places without people managing them to whatever degree if you're thinking of management on a continuum then yes people have always been part of landscapes and especially these landscapes that you know in. At least in north america we've insisted on referring to as prestige or wilderness and basically racing human history and in the city. it's particularly problematic. I mean cities are a type of ecosystem in urban ecosystem You now it's we make it together with people and non humans and rain and snow like all this sort of natural phenomena and certainly in cities the human footprint or handprint is much greater but it doesn't make cities less valuable and as much as i love washington square park and thank that it is a great place to engage with plants and birds and bees and all of that stuff in my mind. It certainly could be better And it's not optimal for wildlife and because it's not optimal for a life. I also think it's not optimal for people because there are so many benefits that you can get from being in really high quality well-functioning ecosystems as a human being and so i don't thank you. You get to relegate some kinds of parks green spaces to the rubbish bin or that are not good. Natural spaces everywhere can always be improved end..

I've probably six or seven times in trivia heads up because you know i'm trying to use any bits of strategy can to sort of answer something quicker or a little slower or Maybe get him away from a certain place somehow some way or anything. It's all gamesmanship to be honest and when did you realize that you had talent in these games. You mentioned playing scrabble with your mom. Is that what data back to around the same time. When i was younger had a hard time reading maybe even from first grade. And i kind of always was probably a grape in precocious bright student school but never a hard worker. And you know my parents divorced. Maybe when i was ten eleven and at that point you know kind of was left to my devices. My you know my mom left and you know. My dad started working. He hadn't done that before. And i was kind of like in the nineties on the street so i started going to washington square park and you know i had all the scrabble information as spending time at ymca's and by the time. I was sixteen hours in washington square park for hours. And you know from that point you know i was able to go to places like the flea house and i was able to discover the chest forum xanadu and like places where people started to be backgammon. And you know. I started to get into the money element because you know frankly you know. I was packing bags and stores. I wanted options to get me. You know a better life and because i excelled at games matter what the game was. It wasn't wouldn't say it's just that i excelled at games a i can learn rules of games quickly and be. I've never been afraid of losing like just losing is a part of winning to me. It deeply deeply is i. Don't mind losing. I just hate losing the same way twice. And i think if you can always take that mentality just like lose better lose different. It was different. I love that and your mom. When did you start beating gravel. Oh yeah i dropped quixotic on my mom and she did not wanna play with me anymore. I literally put that on the triple word score. I put the excellent triple letter score. And i put that blank at the end and i created a bingo. I dropped a hundred. Seventy points. earned one play and she goes. I remember the look on her face. And yeah that was it. Like i cer- passer. By the time. I was like even though she had played dozens of tournaments like saturdays. When i was a kid and i was fun. Beating my brother. Also at chess was huge. My brother has a probably lifetime. Ninety nine to one score against may but you know that was the last time people chessel was when i beat him and you know. Now that i'm a master level player. I would say he's probably still around fourteen hundred but you know the one thing that he has on me is the the score you know you know. Sibling rivalry is than most your brothers and amazing amazing poker player and an amazing amazing chess player. But there's nothing more motivated than being a younger sibling and wanting to beat an older sibling at something that they love playing. So and he's like. He's like a pan gamer. He loves all games all but he really likes to get in there with all these different games me. I'm a little slower the issue with me. I do not learn roles quickly..

A Look at Jennie Livingston's 1990 documentary Paris is Burning

"Hello and welcome to Queer as fiction we talk about Queer historical media I'm Jason and I may lie and today we're talking about Jenny. Livingston's nineteen ninety. Documentary. Paris's Bang. Before we start, we have a few called him warnings to this episode. This episode contains mentions of Racism Transphobia Homophobia the AIDS epidemic murder and family rejection. It also contains the use of outdated language surefooted by Queer people on people, call it in courts. If any of that sounds like something, you don't want to listen to please feel free to check out one of. Our other episodes. So I wanted to stop this episode by explaining what is Paris's banning because I feel like a lot of listeners probably a pretty good understanding of this documentary. Some very young listeners may not have seen it. I said Hanson had you seen it before we researched this ups lot no but I had a pirated version of a hard drive for decades. I love with things and have adhd. reasonable. So I was aware of it but I hadn't actually seen it. Yeah. I think I heard the name but didn't know what it was. So Paris is burning is a documentary about the bowl culture scene of New York in the nineteen eighties prominently featuring the African American and Latin American members of that community many among gay and or trans. It documents how they lives intersect with the Bulls the form, the Bulls tight and contains several interviews, participants, explaining concepts, such shade, realness reading, and legendary woods that may be familiar to a modern audience given how by propagated in popular drag culture. Yeah on TIKTOK. The documentary features no narration and very little dialogue from the interview wide lesbian filmmaker. Jenny. Livingston prominent members of several houses in the scene featured including pepple of Asia during Corey Angie Extravaganza and Willi? Ninja. I'll make a nerd here on pronounce while several of the performance featured in Paris boning. Ambiguously Trans Women and so I'm GonNa to share pronounced where I don't have specific evidence I. Do want to note that pepple of Asia describes himself in the documentary is not being woman not understanding the experience of womanhood and being on In a sex change however, her two thousand and three obituary in the new. York. Times describes her as preferring in pronounce ongoing with that as the more recent source compared to this documentary which was filmed in the eighties. So having talked about what Paris has been is I want to I going to kind of how was made so as described by Academic Lucas, Hildebrand in his twenty thirteen book quit film classics Piracy's Boning, which was a major source when I was researching this episode Livingston was taking a film production class at NEOCON. INVESTI windshield observed three young men voguish in Washington. Square Park after asking what they were doing she was invited to an upcoming bowl and soon thereafter began documenting the scene via black and white photographs and audio interviews which were kind of the mediums in which she worked at the time. She was really documentary filmmaker. This was her first data and she since gone on to make several more films which obviously less notable. Because I don't know what they. Yeah. That's pretty wild. Are they on like queer things. Yeah I, believe her I think there's like Queer Antenna. Seems to many of her films. So yeah, it was only the light of that.

"I've talked before in this series revisiting the archive about anger. How it can fuel action? How an anger is partnered with love? It can produce a kind of righteous rage that propels us those of us who lived through the AIDS crisis. Know about it. Some of US learned it from Larry Kramer who died this week in Manhattan where he's lived for. Decades Larry was famous for being one of the first billions to sound the alarm during that last epidemic. The one that began forty years ago he was on the front lines even before aids was called AIDS and became a global epidemic at swept away more than thirty million lives before AIDS. Larry was best known for his work as a screenwriter and author but the virus that was claiming so many lives in the political indifference political negligence that greeted it turned Larry into a very public activist. His friends were dying and he felt compelled to do something more than to just bury the dead and mourn their loss in nineteen. Eighty-two Larry co-founded a gay men's health crisis now known as GM five years later he co-founded act up the AIDS coalition to unleash power. Act Up came to be known for its brilliant use of public protests to bring attention to the epidemic by early nineteen eighty nine. When I I met Larry AIDS take in more than sixty thousand lives. Most of them. Gay Men Larry quickly earned a reputation as an uncompromising firebrand with a fierce temper. I'm not proud of it. But that kind of person generally inspires me to run in the other direction. I was more than a little anxious. I approached the door to Larry's apartment in a building that fronts Washington Square Park in New York. City's Greenwich Village. As I said when this episode originally aired I got myself worked up. Nothing I brace myself for a tornado and found the teddy bear. Here's the same. Larry welcomed me into a spacious apartment and showed me into his all white book line living room and I took a seat opposite him across a broad desk as I said at my tape recorder and attach the Mike to his shirt. We talked about how we both had wanted to find a husband early in life and settle down and that led us back in time to Larry's memories as it confused and Unhappy College student in the Early Nineteen fifties. I pressed record interview with Larry Kramer Thursday January twenty six thousand nine hundred eighty nine at the home of Larry Kramer in New York City. Interviewer is Eric. Marcus tape one side one.

Miserable person and And deaths seemed very appealing at moments during my freshman year when I was dating a woman in making off the man by in life and fifty three must have been much more difficult than seventy six at Vassar. You can even start in shifty. Three Easter I knew I was gay. I think from the day I was born and I think that there have been I. I now know that there were isolate. They were experiences all through before. I even got to Yale. And they were all covert in guilt. Inducing on on everybody's part so the it seemed as if all those early years were spent trying to deny these feelings the feelings would sort of get to strong erupt in and I would have an experience. Which would autumn always make me feel guilty in one way or another and then you put it you become. Sylvia's would come down for a while a week a week or two and Yale was awful.
