1:29

Hello, everyone. My name is

1:31

Jinx Monsoon, and welcome to

1:33

a brand new episode of

1:36

Hi, Jinx, with me,

1:37

Jinx Monsoon. Today,

1:40

my guest is one of my favorite people

1:42

on the internet, one of my favorite

1:44

people on Netflix. And

1:46

now that I've had an hour-long

1:48

conversation with him, he's just one of my

1:50

favorite people. He's really one of the coolest

1:53

people I think I've ever met. His

1:55

name's Luke Cook. He's

1:57

been an actor for many years.

1:59

You may know him as

2:02

Satan on Chilling Adventures

2:04

of Sabrina. That's

2:07

how I met him. But he also runs

2:10

an Instagram account that I think

2:12

is really

2:15

goals for the future. Today

2:18

I deemed him the future of

2:20

straight men. And

2:24

once you listen to our conversation, you'll

2:26

probably understand why. So

2:28

buckle up and hunker down

2:30

and sink your teeth into

2:33

some brand new hijinks.

2:38

M. Oh! M.

2:41

Mom! Hello

3:03

everyone, I'm Jinx Monsoon

3:05

and welcome to Hi Jinx,

3:08

a podcast where I, an internationally

3:11

tolerated drag superstar, get

3:13

to interview compelling and fascinating

3:16

people about how they became who

3:18

they are and why they do what they do.

3:21

Today we are joined by actor,

3:23

director, the notes say actor,

3:26

director, and director. Good one,

3:28

Joseph. Today

3:31

we're joined. Listen, it doesn't

3:33

matter. I love him. He's, I'm,

3:36

this is, I've been trying to make this

3:38

interview happen for months and now it's happening.

3:41

It's Luke Cook. Hi

3:43

Luke.

3:44

Hi Jinx. Okay, Luke,

3:46

I'm gonna start this out just

3:49

as bluntly as possible.

3:52

The reason why I love you is I think you

3:54

are the future of straight men. Let's talk

3:56

about this. I

4:01

mean, I don't presume that I know your identity,

4:06

but you are married with a kid,

4:09

with another kid on the way. You're

4:11

a Hollywood hunk. For all intents

4:13

and purposes,

4:14

you present as straight,

4:17

but lacking

4:19

many of the toxic male

4:21

qualities that tend to identify

4:24

men as men. And not

4:28

only do you not possess a lot of those toxic qualities,

4:31

but you go in the opposite direction. And

4:34

I would say, I would

4:35

say you gay bait with purpose.

4:42

Because I am someone who I've seen a lot of

4:44

gay baiting in my life. I never

4:47

feel like what you're doing is gay baiting. I

4:49

feel like what

4:50

you're doing is showing off

4:52

how non-toxically

4:54

masculine you are. Let's

4:57

start here, okay? Let's start

4:59

here. What motivates

5:00

your Instagram persona?

5:05

Yeah, I mean, for me, it's just about having as

5:07

much fun as I possibly can. I

5:09

don't think about gay baiting. I

5:13

don't think about whether I'm being toxically

5:15

masculine or not toxically masculine. I'm

5:17

just like, what do I wanna do to have the most

5:20

fun that I possibly can ride

5:22

fucking now? And if that means I'm

5:24

dressing up as my alter ego

5:26

Louise, who's an impersonation of

5:28

my mom. And

5:31

it's so interesting, because just

5:32

on Friday, I posted, oh, sorry,

5:34

on Sunday, I posted a picture of me in drag.

5:37

And I would have lost around 4,000 followers. And

5:41

I'm like, guys, have I not been doing something

5:43

like this the entire fucking

5:45

time you followed me?

5:46

That's what I'm thinking. I

5:49

remember, your humor has gotten,

5:53

has made me smile in the moments when I'm like,

5:56

the reason why I said, I said,

6:00

I said in an interview, you are my favorite

6:02

person to follow on Instagram. Because

6:04

I'll be scrolling Instagram, which is basically like

6:07

the only app I use,

6:09

right?

6:09

And I'll be scrolling

6:12

and because of the algorithm, because

6:14

of what I post, all I get

6:16

in my algorithm is like social justice

6:18

stuff, stuff about gender,

6:20

politics, and so I'm

6:23

scrolling through, getting worked up, getting

6:25

pissed off. The first

6:27

thing I know, it's Luke Cook

6:30

in, I presume, his wife's bikini

6:32

and he's like dancing around

6:35

going, we are the proud boys, we'll make

6:37

it loud boys, we are the proud boys,

6:39

like trolling the proud

6:42

boys. And I'm like, you're

6:44

so brilliant. Now you've also

6:47

had a full fucking career

6:48

that we're going to talk about, but I just wanted to

6:50

start with this. The

6:52

reason why I talk

6:55

about you to anyone who will listen is

6:57

because, like I said, I think you're the future

6:59

of straight men. And if any straight men are

7:01

listening, follow Luke Cook and take

7:03

notes because you're

7:05

also

7:06

fucking gorgeous. You're also a hunk.

7:08

You're also stacked. You're

7:11

a brick house. What's the term? I

7:14

don't know. So you got it all going on, but you've

7:16

also had to work really, really hard in your career.

7:20

I didn't know this until I was looking in my notes,

7:22

but your first

7:24

sitcom acting role was playing

7:26

RuPaul's evil assistant.

7:29

Oh my God. Oh my

7:31

God. It was like the ultimate, like my first TV

7:33

job

7:34

ever was with him. And I remember

7:36

the first day on set, I was on my phone

7:39

sitting next to him. He's like, what are you

7:41

doing on your phone?

7:42

Like get off your phone. Get

7:44

off your phone and talk to me.

7:46

And I was like, okay, yeah. And then we just

7:48

didn't stop talking for like five days. Like

7:51

we just, we just became friends,

7:53

but I like was called out by him at the

7:55

beginning. I was like, gosh, this guy, I don't

7:58

really know. I didn't know who he was. And

8:00

so I was like, okay.

8:01

And then we became men. And

8:05

I had to like kind of out

8:07

arch him. Like I had to be

8:09

even more camp than RuPaul.

8:14

If that was going to be possible. The

8:17

still

8:17

that's here, first of all, the still that

8:19

I have in my notes of you and RuPaul, you

8:21

look, okay, I don't know how old you

8:23

are here, but your cheeks are

8:26

snatched. You're serving,

8:28

you're

8:30

giving cunty side eye. And

8:35

I had no freaking idea. So it's

8:37

just, you've always been an insider. You've

8:39

always been on the inside. You've always

8:42

known what's up. So

8:44

the other day, sorry, I should

8:46

say, the other about six months

8:48

ago, I'm at a smoothie store. You're a parent.

8:50

You don't have to have any concept of time. It's

8:52

fine. Exactly. Are

8:55

you a parent?

8:56

No, no, I just follow you on Instagram.

8:59

So I see your kid throwing rocks at you and

9:01

stuff. And I think you're doing God's work,

9:03

huh? I

9:07

was at a smoothie store and

9:09

this big tall motherfucker comes

9:12

up behind me and just cups my eyes from

9:14

behind. And I'm

9:16

like, and I'm like, and I turn around and

9:19

it's this guy and a hoodie and I'm like

9:21

N95 mom. And

9:23

I'm like,

9:24

who is that? And then I see the eyes and

9:26

it's RuPaul. I hadn't

9:28

seen him in years. And he

9:30

just comes up and does that shit to me. And

9:33

then every so often, every so often you would

9:35

have sent me a really craft joke

9:37

on text. He's a

9:39

very odd friend to have. Would you

9:42

consider him your friend?

9:43

Well, you know, we only really get to

9:46

interact when we work together. And

9:48

so I would say professional friends,

9:50

absolutely. But then there's

9:52

also the, you know, there's the history we

9:54

have together of Ru

9:57

crowning me twice and

9:59

So there is kind of like a,

10:03

there's like a familial relationship

10:05

there, but I do believe that

10:07

Ru keeps kind of

10:10

a boundary between

10:12

the girls and himself,

10:16

because it's a funny tightrope to walk,

10:20

being kind of like our boss

10:22

and our mom and our

10:24

friend all at the same time. But

10:27

anytime I interact with Ru, which

10:30

is in professional context, anytime

10:32

it's like we're old friends, it's like we're picking

10:34

up where we left off. It's like as

10:36

if we saw each other yesterday. You know? Yeah,

10:41

I take notes from Ru in that sense,

10:45

like there's a professionalism

10:47

there that like and that spans so many

10:50

years. You're like, okay, whatever you do,

10:52

seems like a fairly good way of doing

10:55

things. Like

10:57

the way in which Ru talks about his private life,

11:00

for instance, and kind of keeps you at a, like

11:02

has a boundary where you can't cross over.

11:05

That's smart, I think.

11:07

Yeah, it is smart. I mean, like, because

11:09

there is, there's

11:12

plenty to be said about being candid and people,

11:15

when they feel like they can relate to artists,

11:18

they definitely, it creates that

11:20

bond between you

11:23

and your audience when you're candid.

11:26

But then there's also like, if you open up

11:28

every part of your life, I think

11:30

that's kind of why, I've been pontificating

11:33

lately

11:33

on why influencers and

11:35

like people who,

11:37

like are, you know, they're famous

11:40

from

11:40

YouTube or TikTok, their

11:42

lives seem so freaking dramatic,

11:45

right? Like they're always in feuds with

11:47

each other. They've always got

11:50

dirt on each other and they're all, you

11:52

know, it seems like there's a lot of drama going

11:54

on. And my wonder is, is

11:56

it because every aspect

11:57

of their life is being lived publicly?

12:00

Like when you have no private

12:02

life, there's no place, there's

12:04

nowhere else for the drama to go, but public

12:06

if your whole life is public, right? Yes,

12:10

I was talking with my wife the other

12:12

day about this, about is reality

12:14

TV good for society?

12:17

Like are the Real Housewives good for

12:19

society? Like

12:21

are the Kardashians good for society?

12:24

Like ever since 2008, that was the first writer's

12:26

strike, right, ever since 2008, that

12:29

was like the beginning of huge reality

12:31

TV push. And I wonder if it's

12:33

been good for society or not to watch these

12:36

people whose

12:37

money is conflict.

12:39

In order for those shows to be interesting, there

12:41

has to be conflict. So they have to

12:43

make things happen, like conflict happen,

12:45

which is probably what you're talking about with these influencers and these YouTube

12:47

people, it's like make conflict happen all

12:50

the time. And I don't think that's good for society.

12:52

I think if you're watching that stuff too much, you

12:55

can start to do that in your own life, where

12:57

you're like the only thing that makes sense.

12:59

You got me the Crunchwrap Supreme,

13:01

but I said I wanted a chalupa, you're

13:04

dead to me. Like, I hear you.

13:09

Yeah, I mean, cause

13:11

of course there's, of course plenty of

13:14

people I respect find

13:16

that stuff

13:19

entertaining. I've never really been a

13:21

reality TV show junkie. I

13:24

like cooking competitions. I

13:26

like drag race. I like silly

13:28

competitions, like things where the

13:30

stakes might be high,

13:32

but it's at the end of the days, it's Legos

13:34

or, I

13:37

like that kind of stuff. But

13:38

the reality TV that you're talking

13:40

about, where it's just following people around

13:43

getting into conflict, it is

13:45

kind of like, yeah. I

13:47

mean, and then just the fact that like,

13:49

then there's the fact

13:51

that we all know more about

13:54

like what the Kardashians are doing day

13:56

to day than we do about global politics.

13:59

That's... That's a thing. That

14:03

is absolutely true. That

14:06

is absolutely true. Like somehow I'm aware that

14:08

Courtney and Kim are in a feud right

14:10

now about him dressing

14:13

up for Dolce and Gabbana. And

14:15

she wore something that was like Courtney's

14:17

dress. And I'm like, I don't even watch

14:20

this shit. How do I know?

14:22

Exactly. It's intrusive

14:24

pop culture. It's the way I feel about Star

14:26

Wars. I've never seen a single Star Wars

14:29

movie. I can tell you the plot of every

14:31

film. Anyway,

14:34

Luke, let's talk about the fact that, okay,

14:37

so

14:38

you came into my life. You

14:41

you've been working for ages and ages and

14:43

I have in my notes and you've been

14:45

candid about it, about how

14:47

you you've been working a long time.

14:50

But then you because

14:52

of your work because of your visa

14:54

being Australian, you had to take

14:56

many, many years off and well,

14:59

four years off in in this

15:01

industry is like a lifetime. And

15:06

so then you talk about the grind of getting

15:08

back

15:08

to it and then fast forward to the

15:10

chilling adventures of Sabrina's when

15:12

you entered into my life. And

15:15

then once I found you on Instagram and saw

15:17

the way that you and

15:18

what's this Gavin Nick

15:22

scratch, the way you two were

15:24

trolling the Internet with your you

15:28

were like teasing the ship. I

15:30

don't know the way you were.

15:33

It was like you were the older brother

15:35

on that set. But you and

15:36

the young dudes were also like

15:39

like trolling the Internet,

15:41

like kissing each other and rubbing

15:43

up on each other. And I thought something on this

15:45

set just seems like so much fun.

15:49

These you all act like such goofballs.

15:53

Of course, I worship of worship

15:55

Michelle Gomez. She's like a goddess

15:57

to me. So let's

15:58

talk. about Sabrina

16:01

and playing Satan and

16:04

your relationship with the cast.

16:08

Yeah.

16:09

I mean, yeah, we were very,

16:12

we really actually loved each other. And

16:14

I'm not sure if that was like that that came

16:17

through, but we all loved each other very much.

16:19

Definitely comes through. Yeah. Like

16:21

we actually all got along so well. And

16:23

it's not often that you go on to set, I'm sure you

16:25

felt this way, you go on to set and you're like, oh, there's

16:28

some awkwardness here. That

16:30

wasn't there with these ones. And

16:33

yeah, me and Gavin became fast friends. I became fast

16:35

friends with all of them really. But

16:38

yeah, I know what the one you're talking about. The

16:40

thing with me and Gavin was that in the show,

16:43

Nick Scratch had been put

16:46

into Satan

16:47

and my continuous

16:49

joke was,

16:51

get him inside me. And

16:56

so I continued tease him about like,

16:58

you're inside, you know, and

17:02

it just was ongoing.

17:04

Yeah. And that's the thing I'm saying

17:06

is like, it's like,

17:08

I don't think you're gay now because you're making

17:11

those jokes, you know, like growing up, I

17:13

don't know how old you are, but I'm 35. And

17:17

of course, you know, growing

17:19

up like post AIDS

17:22

epidemic, like in

17:24

the new in the new America

17:26

that was integrating queer

17:28

people into society, you know,

17:31

like, what a novel concept,

17:33

queer people are just people. And

17:35

then

17:36

but then there was, you know, the backlash

17:38

of the queer panic. You know,

17:41

if you watch Friends, every

17:43

other joke is about, you

17:45

know, this guy can't touch that guy or they're

17:47

gay now.

17:50

So to be a generation

17:52

away from that and then see like

17:55

these Hollywood hunks

17:57

playing around with each other in that way. All

18:00

it shows is that it's not such a big

18:02

fucking deal. You know, it doesn't make

18:04

anyone think you two are gay for each other,

18:06

or if you are, that's your own business. But

18:09

the big thing that it tells society

18:11

is it's not such

18:12

a big fucking deal. No,

18:16

I think you're correct. I think it's like

18:18

about being as comfortable.

18:21

It's about being comfortable around another man

18:24

despite what his, what proclivities

18:27

are, and despite what your proclivities

18:29

are. We can give each other a hug and a kiss on the

18:31

cheek and say, we love each other. And

18:33

it's not a thing, but back in the 90s, I

18:35

watched a movie the other night with Ryan Reynolds called

18:37

Waiting. And there was an

18:40

F bomb, and

18:43

I don't mean the word fuck. I mean the F bomb.

18:46

Oh, I could

18:46

say a fag. They called each other fags.

18:49

Thanks for saying it. They

18:52

were saying

18:53

it all the time to each other. And it was

18:55

like, wow. And that's Ryan Reynolds,

18:57

who's a huge star now. And we've

18:59

come a long way. That's people too. They're

19:01

joking about having sex with like

19:04

women who are 17 and

19:07

they're not joking. And

19:09

it's like, wow, we've come a long way.

19:11

And it's so funny. I've

19:14

been kind of thinking about that a

19:16

lot lately too, is that

19:19

for so long, it

19:21

was okay for men to joke about having

19:24

sex with underage girls. It was okay for

19:26

men to joke about date rape essentially.

19:29

Like if

19:29

you look back in TV from the 90s, constantly

19:33

there's like, well, is he gonna take advantage

19:35

of her in her drunken state or not? Tune

19:38

in next week.

19:40

But

19:45

you couldn't, but anything

19:47

gay was like, whoa. So

19:50

it's cool to see. It's

19:52

cool to see someone, like

19:55

you as comfortable as you are.

20:00

I know what's ahead.

20:05

I could

20:07

feel the future. From a producer of Top

20:12

got two kids.

21:11

What's your home life

21:13

like these days?

21:15

It's great. You

21:18

know, I can't fault it. I really like, even

21:20

though it's...

21:21

Kids are inconvenient. That's what they are.

21:24

Everyone knows it. Especially

21:27

when people don't want kids, they're so

21:29

inconvenient. I'm like, it is so true.

21:32

They're so inconvenient. But

21:34

also,

21:35

I've never loved anything more than

21:37

my eldest son right now. And

21:39

my other son, who's seven months old, he's coming around.

21:42

He's coming around. Yeah, yeah. He's

21:44

got a concha. There's

21:47

something to being absolutely in love

21:49

with something

21:50

more than you've ever been in love with anything ever.

21:54

And that's something to be said for that. But my home

21:56

life is messy. I get... hit

22:00

in the head like in the last week, a couple

22:02

of times, like by his fifth, which

22:05

is an odd thing to be like dealing with.

22:07

Like you're like a battered wife

22:11

who's absolutely in love with.

22:13

That's me and my cat, yeah. Cats,

22:16

that's why I love cats because you

22:18

always figure them out. You're like, how am I gonna

22:21

get in with you today? Actually not even today,

22:23

like how am I gonna like get you to love me in the next

22:25

half an hour? Yeah. And you have to figure

22:27

out every half an hour. That's what I love about cats.

22:30

Dogs make it too easy.

22:32

Dogs make it too easy, they just haul it. Whereas

22:35

cats is like, let me figure out this puzzle

22:38

right now so you can come and kiss me. Yeah.

22:42

So kids

22:44

are convenient, but do you find,

22:47

do you find that it's, like

22:50

how are you balancing a life

22:52

in the industry? I know the thing

22:55

I saw you most recently posting

22:57

about seemed like a horror

22:59

movie, a horror movie. What,

23:02

you're stalking some girl, you creep? Well,

23:06

actually I'm getting revenge. It's called Follow

23:08

Her, it's actually about, oh, shit. It's

23:13

totally creepy on my part, but it's more

23:15

about getting revenge on her. The whole story

23:17

is

23:18

she runs a site where she

23:20

pranks people and films it and

23:22

then she posts them on her site and

23:25

she blanks out their face. But she forgets

23:27

to on one video that does really

23:29

well. It goes viral and she's getting all these followers,

23:31

but she doesn't take it down because it's great

23:33

for the clout. So I'm hired by

23:35

that guy to come and get her and

23:39

ruin her life. And it's

23:41

kind of a psychosexual thriller. There's a bit where

23:43

she tickles me and then sticks her foot in my

23:46

mouth. Yeah,

23:49

it's a lot. But mixing

23:52

being a dad with being an actor, I've

23:56

just taken away the stress of being

23:58

an actor so much. I used to be

24:00

like, got to get acting work, got to get acting work.

24:03

And I'm like, actually now all I want to do

24:05

is I love acting

24:07

work and I love acting, but all I want to do now is

24:10

make sure that I'm creative for money. So I'm

24:12

starting like a business doing, I'm

24:14

starting a protein company, and

24:17

I'm starting, you know, all of these things

24:19

and writing. So I'm doing as much as I can

24:21

without having to stress about

24:23

getting the next job. I just found

24:26

that that was too much for a life of

24:28

a dad. Like where you're like, well, go

24:30

to get work, go to get work. That kind of desperation

24:33

is not good for a creative. I'm sure you

24:35

have felt that. Yeah.

24:36

Yeah. Well, because it ends,

24:38

that's when you end up taking the work that

24:41

your instincts tell you, oh, you're not going

24:43

to be happy doing this or, or

24:47

like, this isn't what you got into this for,

24:49

but

24:49

you take it because you're like, I gotta be doing something.

24:51

I can't be sitting around, you know? But

24:54

if anything, yeah, I

24:56

mean, I've always felt that pressure of, especially

24:59

as a

25:00

queer drag

25:03

entertainer, like the bubble could pop

25:05

at any moment, you know, gotta make the most

25:07

of it while you've got it. The phrase

25:09

strike

25:09

while the iron's hot has been said to

25:12

me my whole life. Well, like 10

25:14

years later, the iron's still okay.

25:16

Like it's still warm, you know, like, and

25:18

the pandemic taught me that

25:21

I can do other things to

25:23

stay like active and

25:25

then come back to the grueling

25:27

work when I'm ready for it. But

25:29

like, it is nice to know that entertainers

25:32

can

25:33

find all these different outlets, you

25:36

know, like do a podcast for a while

25:38

if that means you get to stay home and

25:41

work, but also be with your family.

25:43

Like, I think we

25:45

learned there's multiple ways to do

25:48

things. Yeah. Yeah,

25:49

I tell actors all the time, like

25:51

the skills that we have as

25:53

creatives, actors, whatever, are

25:56

skills that aren't just made

25:58

for this very narrow. field of learning

26:01

lines and saying lines. Actually our

26:03

skills are far beyond that. The ability

26:05

to listen to people, number one. The

26:07

ability to think about what they're saying and then ask

26:10

a follow-up question. I mean this is

26:12

necessary for business, sales, interviewing,

26:15

hosting. You don't have to just stick into

26:17

this same cordon. When I was young I was

26:19

like, I'm just going to be an actor and that's it. I'm

26:22

just going to be like, if I try and do something else

26:25

it'll disperse the energy given

26:27

to acting. That was a very young

26:30

thing to think. Now I'm like, I just

26:32

want to be able to be creative

26:34

and fulfilled for money. I

26:36

don't care if it's in the acting field, I don't care if

26:39

it's some other field. I don't want to be cordoned

26:41

in. I want to be able to use my talents

26:43

for a million different things if

26:46

I need to and I find

26:48

it enjoyable to not just be an actor

26:50

all the time. As

26:53

you are doing it right now. Yeah

26:56

and it gives you plenty of time to come

26:59

up with silly shit to do on the internet.

27:02

Okay you do this thing where you

27:04

like, oh it was this one video where

27:07

it was like all these, oh my

27:09

god okay no two videos that I can think

27:11

of right now. Models

27:14

like posing while they're getting their makeup done

27:16

and like what I love that

27:19

you do is you point

27:21

out

27:21

how ridiculous the internet is.

27:25

You had this video of Kourtney

27:27

or no Kim Kardashian promoting

27:29

her like Beyond Burger meat or

27:31

whatever and she has half a hamburger

27:34

in her hand and she's pretending to chew but there's

27:36

not a bite taken out of the hamburger.

27:41

So you did a montage of you pretending

27:43

to eat food.

27:44

Like that kind

27:46

of shit. Like if you could market

27:49

that into that's

27:52

honestly what the world needs more of.

27:54

Like poke, point

27:57

out how ridiculous our culture

27:59

is.

27:59

as much as you can.

28:02

Everybody listening.

28:05

Absolutely. I don't think we consider the

28:07

way that our lives have turned into, instead

28:09

of just living life, we now shoot

28:12

our life. Everything's always filmed.

28:14

Everything has just become, life has

28:17

become content farming. And

28:19

we just, whenever something authentic

28:21

happens, we film it, we pull

28:23

it out and we shoot it. Or

28:25

like, there's this guy the other day that

28:27

I poked fun at, who was like in his

28:30

mirror, shirtless, filming

28:33

himself saying a quote by Timothy

28:35

Charlemagne, by the way. But he didn't thank Timothy

28:37

Charlemagne for the quote. He

28:42

just filmed himself shirtless in the mirror and

28:44

said this meaningful quote. He's like, you are

28:46

the captain of your cell line. And

28:50

I was like, this is so terrible. Like,

28:55

why don't you just

28:57

text your friends if you found the

28:59

quote so meaningful?

29:01

Like, if you wanna share it with somebody, maybe

29:04

you don't have to take your shirt

29:05

off. You can keep your shirt on. Yeah,

29:08

and get in front of the mirror. Like, isn't this

29:10

an absurd way of expressing that

29:12

you really liked that quote?

29:14

Yeah, and you also like,

29:17

what I love is I wouldn't know that

29:19

there were trends on TikTok

29:22

if you weren't making fun of them. The

29:24

trend of, oh my God, what was this

29:27

thing that like boys were doing on

29:29

TikTok

29:29

where they're like- They're getting arrested? They're

29:31

getting arrested or they're getting kidnapped,

29:34

but they're sexy about it. What is

29:36

that? What

29:38

is that? They're

29:41

getting arrested, right? And so they've got the handcuffs

29:43

on that and the cops are putting the handcuffs on

29:46

and then they lock eyes with you and then they

29:48

mouth, I love you. They go, I love you.

29:52

What? Wait,

29:55

isn't that absurd? That's what they thought. That's

29:58

so absurd.

29:59

That's what a woman wants. A woman

30:01

wants to see me getting arrested, but I'm

30:03

like, part of that.

30:16

So all of this

30:18

is leading up to a really weird

30:20

question. I have no factual

30:23

basis. I

30:25

am just going to ask it. What

30:28

makes Australians so much funnier

30:30

than the rest of the world? Because my

30:35

other favorite account to follow is the

30:37

uninspired, unemployed. Some

30:41

Australian comedians making

30:43

funny videos, poking fun at culture.

30:45

You've participated in some videos with

30:47

them. Why are Australians

30:50

so much funnier than the rest of us?

30:55

Is it because you are so funny yourselves?

30:57

Just you as people is kind of just

31:00

hilarious

31:00

in and of itself. I

31:04

think that number one, taking the piss,

31:06

like making a mockery is

31:08

just part of our culture and it's a way of saying, I love

31:10

you. Like if

31:13

I take the piss out of you, it means

31:15

I like you. And that's a very odd

31:17

thing, especially for Americans. When

31:19

I mock somebody, I'm essentially saying,

31:21

I like you. I respect

31:23

you enough to make fun of you. Also,

31:26

Australians are taught, I think, from

31:28

a very young age, not to take ourselves too

31:31

seriously. You have to consider,

31:33

we're not a world power. We're

31:37

like a shitty little country down in the

31:40

bottom of the world and

31:43

we are quite aware of our insignificance,

31:45

which just breeds humility and

31:48

hilarity. So it's like, we're

31:51

shit. Isn't this funny? I

31:54

love Australia. Every time I go to Australia,

31:57

I have the best time. I always have the best

31:59

sex in Australia.

31:59

I don't know why the ratio

32:02

of there's a higher ratio

32:04

of large penises in Australia I

32:06

have my like weird theories

32:08

about you know because of The

32:11

criminals that were sent there or something.

32:13

I don't know criminals must have BDE

32:15

or something. I don't know Like

32:19

one of the first crime No,

32:24

it's buggery So

32:31

these guys keep fucking each

32:33

other in the off send

32:36

them to Australia

32:37

then that's where we got the idea

32:44

Telling me there's not a top shortage

32:46

in Australia

32:48

there's not a top shortage. No and What

32:52

I'm saying is that like, you know, the ratio

32:55

to large penises

32:56

is just higher in Australia

32:59

Which yeah, like I said, I have a

33:01

theory that everyone's I guess descended

33:04

from big dick

33:05

gay guys back in the day back

33:07

in Victorian England So

33:14

I

33:14

love Australia always

33:17

have a great time in Australia and yeah,

33:19

it doesn't seem like people Take

33:21

things too seriously. I always joke that

33:23

Australia feels like America

33:26

in the 90s and the last time I made

33:28

that joke someone yelled back at me

33:31

Yeah, well at least we still have abortions

33:33

and I said, yeah, so did we in the 90s Do

33:40

you miss Australia have you found it hard

33:42

assimilating I

33:46

don't find it hard assimilating. I do miss

33:48

it though. I do that I

33:52

Do feel like not to get too serious.

33:54

I just do feel like there's just a respect for life

33:57

in Australia that that that in

33:59

any big

33:59

society tends to like disrespect

34:02

life a little bit less. Like I do think that whenever

34:04

I see that there's a school shooting and

34:07

that nothing gets done about it, that I'm like, oh,

34:09

so we're just moving on from that, are we? But that was nothing.

34:12

I just get numb with things. I'm just like, this

34:14

is a problem that I wish was

34:17

sorted in this country that would make me feel a lot

34:19

better about it.

34:20

Yeah. I mean,

34:22

very poignant because I cite

34:24

this all the time but Australia had one

34:26

mass shooting

34:28

or two mass shootings. And

34:30

then immediately swung into action, made gun reform

34:34

and

34:36

now there hasn't been. And there just

34:39

hasn't been since then. So whenever

34:41

people say, well, you could ban

34:43

the guns and blah, blah, blah, it'll still happen.

34:46

But we've seen evidence contrary

34:48

to that. Like we've literally seen

34:50

in a test country. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

34:54

This country tried it out and guess what? It

34:56

worked. So why are we still avoiding

34:59

it? Why are we still acting like it can't

35:01

work when

35:02

this country just already proved that it does?

35:04

Say, it's funny, I do see

35:07

that conservatives think that

35:09

we fucked up when we did that. And I

35:12

liked it Australia. And I'm like, no, it's

35:14

great. Like it's a very peaceful life. But

35:16

they're like, the lockdown,

35:19

the COVID lockdowns in Australia wouldn't have happened

35:21

had everyone had gun. And I'm

35:24

like, but that's your reasoning that

35:27

there's no school shootings. What were you gonna shoot

35:29

the coronavirus?

35:29

Like

35:32

what the fuck does that mean? The

35:34

logic of Republicans these days,

35:37

it's like, and that's like

35:41

my business manager constantly has

35:43

to remind me, cause I'm like, I gotta do

35:45

something about this, you know? And I get myself

35:48

worked up and they're like, okay,

35:50

let's talk about what you wanna do about it. I'm like, I've

35:53

gotta get on the internet and I've gotta start yelling

35:55

at people. And

35:57

then they're like, you're gonna waste.

35:59

your energy because you are trying

36:02

to have

36:03

a logical conversation with

36:05

someone who has chosen to think illogically.

36:08

Like someone who has made the

36:10

conscious decision to not let logic

36:13

enter the

36:15

equation in their decision making.

36:18

So how do you balance this,

36:20

Jinx? Like how do you balance being

36:23

a comic, you know, funny, and

36:26

wanting to yell from the rooftops things

36:28

that really matter to you. And also

36:30

not because people come

36:32

to us for a reason. People come to me for a reason. I find

36:34

like, like, make me laugh.

36:36

Don't do anything else.

36:38

Don't talk about what you care about. Make

36:40

me laugh. So how do you balance that?

36:43

Well, I find that I'm my funniest

36:45

when I'm full of rage. So basically,

36:47

I channel all my rage into

36:50

my joke writing. And in that way,

36:52

I feel like I'm getting the thoughts out.

36:54

I feel like I'm getting it out of my body. It's

36:57

not living inside me anymore. I'm putting it

36:59

out on stage. So my day

37:01

to day life is actually pretty chill

37:04

because I know I'm going to. And

37:07

then there's the thing of like, my audience

37:09

is people who typically already

37:12

feel similar to me. But my

37:14

is my thought is I'm not going to change

37:17

these people's minds. These aren't the people whose

37:19

minds I'm trying to change. These are the

37:21

people I want to equip

37:23

with the right

37:26

like thought patterns so that when they

37:28

go back out, they

37:30

know exactly how to fight those

37:33

people in their lives. You know, I feel

37:35

like I'm equipping my audiences

37:38

with the tools that

37:41

I use to fight that.

37:43

And then hopefully they go back

37:45

out and fight in the same ways,

37:48

you know, and like even one

37:50

big thing I just tell anyone who wants

37:52

to be an ally when they say, what can I

37:54

do? How do I be an ally? You know, it's not

37:56

about reposting things. It's not about

37:58

blacking out your interests.

37:59

picture, it's about

38:02

stopping the behavior when you hear

38:04

and see it, you know? And that feels

38:06

so uncomfortable to us because

38:09

the last thing we want to do is

38:11

like when we know it's the status quo,

38:14

we know we're going to be the nerd or

38:16

the like annoying one like, guys,

38:19

we really shouldn't say that. Guys,

38:21

you're kind of talking like an asshole. But

38:25

how does the behavior

38:26

change if we don't make it uncool

38:28

to be that way? You know, we got

38:30

to like, we got to make it less

38:33

cool. You know, we

38:35

got to make it more cool to be woke

38:38

than to be an asshole. Right.

38:41

I find that like rebuke is really difficult.

38:44

And there has to be a way that you do it that doesn't

38:46

discourage and crush a person and make

38:48

them hate you. Yeah. Because then they just,

38:51

it's all, they build the wall, you know? Then

38:53

they then they feel good about what they said and

38:56

then they like continue the hate

38:58

rises. There

39:00

has to be something about winning hearts

39:02

and minds that's necessary

39:04

in the conversation. It's like, how am I

39:07

going to relate to somebody who, as

39:09

you said, like doesn't see reality the way

39:11

that I see reality? And it's

39:13

like, I find it's very difficult to rebuke

39:15

someone and to love them at the same

39:18

time. But there has to be that element

39:20

that I'm like, hey, I'm telling you this because

39:22

I love you. Or I'm

39:24

telling you this with some humor so that

39:27

you see it better. Right. Because

39:29

if I just fucking tell you bitch, you're

39:31

going to be like, fuck this guy. Walls are coming

39:33

up. But you know, what I think is

39:36

missing so much in this talk of the

39:39

divisiveness of this country is winning

39:41

hearts and minds. If you want to

39:43

win them over, you've got to, you've got

39:45

to like see the, one of the best jokes

39:48

is that joke that you told about the Portland

39:50

gender reveal part.

39:51

Because

39:54

I thought that it was going in a direction that was going

39:56

to be like, fuck the straight.

39:59

but you turned it on its head

40:02

and all of a sudden everyone was an idiot.

40:04

Yeah,

40:08

I think I've definitely chosen

40:11

comedy as my way to do what you're

40:13

talking about. And I think you have

40:15

too because like obviously you're

40:17

also an actor so you play your roles. Those

40:20

roles, you know, that's you playing

40:22

a role. But who you are as a person

40:25

is doing what

40:27

you're talking about. Winning hearts and minds

40:29

through comedy, through taking

40:31

the piss. And then I also think,

40:34

I think, you know, point

40:37

blank, you are a person who has

40:40

inherent privilege. And

40:43

what you do with that privilege

40:44

is poke fun

40:47

at things and the people

40:49

who are paying attention to you start

40:51

to see how ridiculous those things are. Because

40:53

here you are, this gorgeous,

40:56

this gorgeous hunky

40:59

white man, wife and kids,

41:01

the American dream. And

41:04

then you get into your wife's

41:06

clothes and you make fun of

41:09

people who are taking themselves too seriously.

41:11

And I just think that's brilliant because

41:13

you could so easily just

41:16

sit back and enjoy your lovely

41:18

life. Like you could so easily

41:20

not give a shit. And

41:22

instead you give a shit but

41:24

you don't preach.

41:25

You make us laugh while you give

41:28

a shit. And that's, I just love it. And

41:30

it's why I adore you.

41:32

The day that I like responded

41:35

to your post about queefs

41:38

and then you said you got something to

41:40

add to this jinx. And I was like, I can't believe

41:42

Luke Cook just responded to me. So I bounced

41:45

on you for this interview. And

41:47

I'm so happy. Yeah, there

41:51

was something about turps.

41:53

What do we call these queer turps?

41:55

And it's like, well, of course. Yeah, but I was

41:58

responsible. to

42:00

your, you were posting something, because I

42:02

don't know if you were trolling us or what, but

42:05

you were saying that the women

42:07

in your life were having a conversation about

42:10

queefs feeling good and

42:12

how they like to enjoy the queefs. And

42:16

you were like, is this real or am I being pranked?

42:19

What was the consensus on that?

42:23

It's actually not

42:25

necessarily, not technically a queef. It's

42:27

a fart that travels up into the front

42:29

of labia

42:31

and then reverberates around

42:33

the clitoris. And these

42:35

two women who I was talking to were

42:38

saying that they love it and it happens

42:41

mostly in the bath and

42:43

that they think it feels good. And

42:45

then all of these people came out of the woodwork saying,

42:47

this is true or this is not true. It doesn't

42:50

feel good. It really is an annoying feeling when

42:52

your fart gets trapped in your labia.

42:57

Ha ha!

43:08

We are so close to the end of the conversation,

43:11

but I don't want it to end because anyway,

43:13

I'll just make sure you get my number after this. Luke,

43:16

I have compulsory questions that

43:18

I ask every guest. I'm

43:20

really excited to ask you these

43:22

questions, but

43:25

the last thing I want to just hear

43:27

you riff off of, your mom won't

43:29

watch Sabrina because of religious

43:31

reasons. Is this specifically

43:33

because you played the devil or because

43:36

of the whole show?

43:39

I think specifically because I played the devil.

43:41

So if you had been Gabriel

43:43

or something.

43:44

Maybe, but

43:46

even then, I think that she would find that probably

43:49

sacrilegious. It's hard to say exactly why.

43:51

And it's odd because it's just not historically

43:54

accurate. Like it's like, well historically,

43:56

theater has always been about the gods,

43:59

about the devil. like when you look

44:01

at the ancient Greeks, their whole

44:04

thing was about, you know, gods, you

44:06

know, facing off against each other in

44:08

the theater. And so it's like, well, why is playing

44:11

Lucifer any different to that? And to me, Lucifer's

44:13

just fun. I don't look upon witchery

44:16

or any of this like, it's like, guys, this is fantasy.

44:19

It's so much fun. Come on. Yeah.

44:21

I mean, your performance as Lucifer

44:24

was great because you start off scary and

44:26

then by the end, he's kind of goofy and lovable.

44:29

And

44:29

just

44:31

wonderfully done. And I love that series

44:33

so much. I love Miranda Otto and Lucy

44:36

Davis so goddamn much.

44:37

So

44:39

if you ever get the chance, tell them that

44:42

like they have a drag queen that just,

44:44

what multiple, you know, all of us drag

44:46

queens were just obsessed, just obsessed.

44:49

Anyway, okay. I have compulsory questions.

44:52

I ask every guest. You may answer

44:54

them however you like. First

44:57

question, who is your celebrity

44:58

crush today?

45:05

Oh gosh. I saw

45:08

this lipstick ad yesterday

45:10

with Bella Hadid.

45:12

Have you seen that woman?

45:15

Bella hadid's gorgeous. Me

45:17

and my wife was sitting next to each other and I was just like,

45:20

oh, and she went and she looked at me. She goes,

45:22

oh, isn't she amazing? Like,

45:24

look at that fucking face. I

45:26

couldn't believe it.

45:27

It just knocked me out of like, I was like, wow.

45:30

Anyway, so she's hot.

45:31

That's it.

45:33

That's it, she's hot, that's it. My

45:37

crush today is Sarah Ramirez because

45:41

they played Che, uh,

45:45

Che, I

45:46

can't remember, Che Diaz on,

45:48

and just like that. And the internet

45:50

just tore them apart for how silly

45:53

that character was written. It's not Sarah

45:55

Ramirez's fault. That character's just

45:57

written silly, like supposed to be

45:59

a comedian, but. never tells a single goddamn

46:01

joke. That's what I thought.

46:03

Okay, see again, like sometimes

46:05

I just wander past the television. Yeah,

46:09

you're not watching it just like that, but you know everything

46:11

about it. Yes, and I saw

46:13

this, I saw the stand up bit.

46:17

And what I noticed was there was no laughter

46:20

from the crowd, even in the show, the

46:22

crowd is laughing. The crowd's going like this.

46:24

And I'm like, that's not stand up. That's not stand up. So

46:27

my celebrity crush is Sarah Ramirez

46:29

for the fact that they returned for season two. But

46:33

also, I didn't realize this for the

46:35

longest time, but Sarah Ramirez also played the Lady

46:39

of the Lake in the Spamalot

46:41

musical. So I listened to the Spamalot musical

46:43

soundtrack all the time. So

46:46

Che Diaz is also the Lady of the Lake and that just blew

46:48

my mind. And

46:50

I think that's really cool. Crush on Transformers. Next

46:53

question for you. Are

46:54

you spiritual? Definitely,

46:58

definitely spiritual. I don't think that this is the

47:00

material world is all there is. I

47:03

think

47:03

there's something beyond. I think that life is poetic. And

47:06

in that sense, it's a relationship between us and

47:08

the divine. That's

47:11

constant. It's a constant conversation.

47:13

And that's how I feel. Yeah. So,

47:16

I think that's really cool. I think that's really cool.

47:19

And that's how I feel. Yeah.

47:21

Ever

47:24

since the days of the

47:27

festival to Dionysus where

47:30

we mortals don the garb. Yeah,

47:33

I'm very spiritual. I'm a practicing

47:36

witch, but it's more I consider

47:38

witchcraft my philosophy

47:40

more than it's not my religion. My

47:42

spirituality is just that, you

47:45

know, yeah, pretty much exactly what

47:47

you said. Like,

47:50

there's too much going on inside

47:52

our brains for it to just go

47:54

out like a light. Like, I don't know. I'm

47:57

like, there's too much. There's too much.

48:00

Yeah, I agree. So tell me a little bit about witchery.

48:02

I don't understand that at all. I was, I don't

48:04

know. Like, you

48:06

know, it's different for different people

48:09

the way they practice, but I think

48:11

for me, I avoided

48:13

saying witchcraft or

48:15

identifying as a witch for so long because,

48:18

you know, there's a lot of, there

48:20

was like, you know, there's a lot of goofy parts

48:22

to it and there's a lot of parts that you're like, yeah, that's not

48:24

for

48:24

me. But it's very much

48:27

an a la carte spirituality.

48:29

You know, you take the things. So for me, it's like,

48:32

I think of cooking as a form of practicing

48:35

magic. And I carry stones

48:37

with me that kind of are reminders

48:40

of things, you know?

48:41

And I like to think about it both scientifically

48:44

and spiritually. Like,

48:46

if I have a beautiful crystal that I

48:48

carry everywhere with me, and I

48:50

know that this crystal is supposed to heal my

48:52

soul,

48:53

when I look at it, I'm thinking this crystal

48:55

heals my soul. Then my brain sending

48:58

whatever chemical response it needs

49:00

to that makes me feel better in

49:02

wherever my body thinks my soul is,

49:05

you know, it's all metaphysics, but

49:07

it has like some,

49:09

it has like, you know, there's scientific

49:12

something or other behind it, but

49:14

also it's just what I choose because it makes me

49:16

feel good.

49:17

I

49:19

understand. I laugh at the crystal people, but I don't

49:21

think that they're stupid. I think that there's something to

49:24

it. I think that we're electrical beings and

49:27

we come from the earth, the crystal comes from, and the

49:29

crystal, and we carry an

49:31

energy, which is obvious, right? Like, I come into the room,

49:33

people feel a certain way. A

49:35

crystal in the exact same way

49:37

is bound to hold that power or any physical

49:40

thing. Like, a tree can make you feel a certain

49:42

way. So why wouldn't a crystal make you

49:44

feel a certain way? So I laugh at it, but

49:47

at the same time, I think it's

49:49

probably on the money.

49:51

Luke, you just continue to

49:53

be one of the best theories. I don't

49:55

question for you. What

49:58

is your go-to karaoke song?

50:01

Don't let your son go down

50:03

on me. Do

50:05

you know Lady Bunny

50:07

sings that too? She

50:09

sings, don't let your

50:11

son go down on

50:13

me. My

50:18

very gay roommate, he's not my roommate,

50:22

we live together. When you say roommate, it sounds like he's living

50:24

in the same room.

50:25

He was saying this morning. He's

50:27

on the compound. He goes, if you're going to

50:29

talk to Jinx, you have to have

50:33

Judy Garland.

50:36

Like she's obsessed with Judy Garland. And I was

50:38

like, OK, well, I don't know. I don't know. Like

50:40

I know about Judy Garland's life, but I have no

50:42

quotes by Judy Garland. Like he

50:44

said, yeah, you got to have a quote. I'm like, I don't

50:46

know a quote, but I know the music and

50:49

I love the song. And I thought you would like

50:51

this is

50:52

the get your troubles. Come on, get happy.

50:54

The lot is waiting to take your hand.

50:57

Shout hallelujah. Come on, get happy.

51:00

We're going to be going to the judgment land.

51:04

Now do it in nothing

51:06

but a blazer and a fedora. Yeah,

51:11

Luke, she was hot. She

51:13

was so hot. I'm

51:16

yeah, I I

51:19

love to hear that

51:21

you have such a great singing voice. And my notes

51:23

have said that you decided to be an actor

51:25

because you did a school show or

51:27

something. You were a kid and you impersonated

51:30

Frank Sinatra and you loved

51:31

the audience response so much that

51:33

you became an actor. Do you still have

51:36

a Frank Sinatra impression?

51:38

It's not as good anymore. Something

51:40

happened to my voice. I guess I guess stop practicing

51:42

it. But it's something in there. It's like, what is it? Like,

51:46

and the no,

51:49

the end is new. And

51:52

so I say the

51:54

final curtain.

51:56

I'm soaking

51:58

wet, Luke. Have

52:02

you have you watched the Netflix

52:04

series, the characters

52:07

or characters? The characters.

52:10

It's only got one season, but it's

52:12

different comedians and

52:15

the so each episode is a different comedian

52:17

at the focal point, but it's them playing

52:20

multiple characters. The Tim

52:22

Robinson episode

52:23

you would absolutely love. Tim

52:25

Robinson also has a show called I Think

52:27

You Should Leave. It's like short form

52:29

sketch comedy. I think it's right up your alley. Go

52:32

check it out. Well, that's great. That's

52:35

great. I'll check that out.

52:36

Okay. This is my last question

52:39

for you. It has, it's not actually one

52:41

of the questions from my podcast. I just want to know

52:43

how tall are you, Luke? What are you like? Six,

52:45

four.

52:46

I'm six, four and three quarters, baby.

52:50

Yeah. Okay. Anyway, Luke,

52:53

do you have anything to promote? We know you

52:55

got follow her is

52:57

your recent psychosexual,

53:00

thriller drama.

53:03

You

53:05

can feel free to check that out. It's on

53:07

Google play, Amazon prime. You

53:10

got to pay for it. You know, it's not, it's not a fancy

53:13

streamer. I have next

53:15

month, depending on when you release

53:17

this in August, I'm releasing a

53:20

protein beverage that's very delicious.

53:22

It's called steak well, and

53:24

it'll be, it's like 25 grams of protein,

53:28

low fat, low carb, perfect

53:30

ingredients. You'll probably find it

53:32

at Erewhon or you'll see a promoter on Instagram,

53:35

but feel free to give it a try. We have lemon.

53:37

I'll

53:39

send you some. Lemon. I,

53:41

okay. Listen, I

53:42

am now 100%. I

53:45

like what I do for breakfast

53:48

now is I just wake up and have a protein shaped

53:50

for breakfast. I have so much more energy

53:52

than when I used to eat like a breakfast sandwich

53:55

or, and then some days if I

53:57

have a really busy day, you know, like

53:59

I'm not getting around.

53:59

to like, I might have a handful of

54:02

carrots and then it's showtime and

54:04

I'm like, oh my god, I haven't eaten anything

54:06

and I'm going to be so cranky in the middle of my show.

54:09

So I might have a protein shake. I'm

54:11

so excited to hear this. It's, uh, protein

54:13

shakes are not just

54:16

for

54:16

Jim Bunnies anymore. No,

54:18

absolutely. Absolutely.

54:21

Absolutely. You have a podcast yourself

54:23

too, right? I have gotten

54:25

rid of it. My last episode was last week.

54:29

Ties lie so quickly when

54:32

we were talking

54:32

like a month ago, you were like, do my podcast.

54:35

I wanted to have you on mine. I know. So

54:37

like I did a bunch about health and wellness,

54:40

like people experts in the field. It's a really

54:42

great entry for someone who's never listened to health

54:44

and wellness podcast before, because I like

54:46

to keep it relatable and accessible for everybody. But

54:49

my last episode was with a bisexual

54:52

only fans guy named Jake.

54:54

Who may have, you may have seen I mock, I mocked

54:56

him. That's how he became friends. What

54:59

he, what he does is he eats things with his tongue

55:01

out very early. Like he thinks like this,

55:05

very sexual. He's

55:08

an only fans guy. So I naturally had

55:10

to have him on and ask him all the questions about

55:12

like, what's it like shooting only

55:14

fans stuff and then porn. And

55:16

I wanted to ask him a million different questions. And

55:19

so I keep things interesting or did

55:21

keep things interesting on my podcast, but it's no longer

55:23

maybe,

55:24

well, it's still there. People can still

55:26

go listen to it. It's called the daddy's

55:27

own if you're interested. And you should listen,

55:30

you should listen to my the last episode with

55:32

Jake Ochich, call aka call

55:34

me puppy. He is like,

55:37

he is like the top from health. Who

55:39

is like, like

55:42

the Twink destroyer. I think he has been

55:44

nicknamed before. Pretty

55:47

fascinating. So go ahead. You know,

55:49

you mentioned, I keep

55:52

trying to end the conversation, but it's just too

55:55

much fun. I just had this

55:57

feeling and then you mentioned your your gay roommate,

55:59

your gay, Whoever

56:01

lives on the compound with you. I just knew,

56:03

I knew from the moment I started following

56:06

56:08
