3:14

3:14

He looks like a bond villain that was

3:16

it safe because he's in. Not

in some from private jet situation,

3:21

he's got venetian blinds

3:23

yes. For fucking very.

3:28

Then wealthy. The socialite

3:31

guy and super

3:33

fucking hey honey in it and yes deeply,

3:36

okay I was like a who's who the mention that first

3:38

mayor options. such

3:41

as me for the most glaring

3:43

lee obvious thing about his supposed to assistance

3:46

like this is the blatantly de

3:48

mayo It's fine, but that he is.

3:50

I think the human response success of

3:53

are so gay get a very

3:55

gay man, yeah, so

3:57

you. The pulling together bio with his.

4:00

It was difficult. Do not,

4:02

because there hasn't been lot written

4:04

about him but because he was known

4:07

to lie about lot of

4:09

things about his background also

4:12

lying about random stuff

4:14

in your life for no particular purpose also

4:16

very gay. person

4:19

Yeah, he would tell people that. Mother

4:21

was Elizabeth of Germany

4:24

as if she was like noblewoman

4:27

or Aristocrat Royal

4:29

or something the. he was known

4:31

to lie about his birth year he was known

4:33

to lie about his national

4:35

The I have had men on dates lie

4:37

to me about their sh.

4:38

The scores and I'm like use thirty

4:40

seven out, and say, that,

4:43

matter of

4:45

a specific that are close

4:47

your that representation so

4:49

in reality confirmed by like government

4:52

records he was born in Hamburg

4:55

in September nineteen, thirty

4:57

three his father

4:59

was And auto he owned an

5:01

evaporated milk business. His

5:04

mother was not Elizabeth of

5:06

Germany. She was a lingerie sales

5:09

woman from Berlin. So she was Germany

5:11

that parts of Germany

5:13

and her name was Elizabeth. I am Mike

5:15

of Columbia City. That's a cute picture of

5:21

Forest Grove that actually sounds Royal

5:23

so meaning to that sisters

5:26

and we have little clip of

5:28

him talking about his

5:31

childhood. So we're going to watch minute

5:34

of this. How

5:36

can I take you back when you were growing up

5:38

now the town, right?

5:41

As Denmark in Germany, and I

5:42

i just would like to ask you a little bit

5:45

about

5:45

What's your childhood? wondered

5:48

wanting to get out of there and

5:50

to be grown up at 6.

5:57

No, I hit a nice subtle in period

5:59

when the. What not that great there's nothing

6:01

I can say again,

6:03

Sir, I'm not a it's

6:06

still recovering from an unmet hippies it's

6:08

hard to know everything was perfect I never

6:10

played the. sooner i only was

6:12

can sing and reading Then. Who

6:14

who Country Estate quite is related, no,

6:17

I didn't even have anything to do is my sister,

6:19

half sister, always was easily

6:22

the from the rest that wasn't. The best of

6:24

times myth over my father and even

6:26

better terms with my mother, who sought

6:28

it was perfect license as long as

6:30

was not creating topic. The

6:33

kind of a rich text tell me

6:35

he's in. The country house can be very

6:38

wealthy growing up.

6:39

Read also very isolated, but it sounds

6:42

like from his description that he's self isolated

6:44

that he does it feel like. The a native

6:47

of the place where he's growing up he's

6:49

in on bad terms of anybody it's not an

6:51

abusive childhood it's simply

6:53

one that he wants to escape that is

6:55

how I took this clip as well and then read his

6:57

biography and was like no role,

7:01

in. a

7:03

he described this as quote

7:06

unquote perfect childhood racism

7:08

What he does not mention is that he's

7:10

born in fucking Germany in nineteen

7:12

thirty three, this is Nazi Germany.

7:14

Is growing up, yeah, and then post war

7:17

destroyed Germany when he's a teenager,

7:19

song according to his biography,

7:21

"This is called Kaiser Pyro, it was"

7:23

People read this, he distance

7:26

himself from. There. Are many and his German

7:28

heritage starting in his teens,

7:30

he would tell people that he was

7:32

from an aristocratic, Swedish family

7:34

or people with guns that he was Dutch

7:37

and he. Would just like not object even

7:40

when he was ordering German food

7:42

in France he lived in France for his

7:44

whole adult life he. would

7:47

order them using the french words

7:49

for german foods he was calling them freedom

7:51

fries before we were calling than that The officers

7:54

in this. That either on good terms

7:56

with the father and maybe even better terms with his

7:58

mother every. Then. Anecdote,

8:00

the I have found or read about his

8:03

mom, is a little

8:05

bit funny, like five to ten

8:07

percent funny and ninety to

8:09

ninety five percent, devastatingly cruel,

8:12

oh what are. Some what are some of them, according

8:14

to him, she never went to one of his shows

8:17

and when he asked her about it, she said she disliked

8:19

other designers better whole. Fox

8:22

in book of his called "The World",

8:24

according to Coral, he said that his mother

8:26

said: quote i'm going to have to take

8:28

you to the upholstery your nostrils

8:31

are. Too big they need curtains,

8:33

oh God, he also wrote in

8:35

the Karl Lagerfeld diet, or he said

8:38

she did go on diet after my birth

8:40

from that moment on I. Was always held

8:42

responsible for her wait and

8:44

see who's to say jokingly that I had

8:46

killed off her youth and beauty whoa.

8:50

Mommy, joke mom, she also seems

8:52

to be displaying the kind of acid.

8:54

With. That you seen a lot of gay men

8:56

including Karl Lagerfeld, yeah, this

8:58

is the kind of frigid mother that people

9:00

were being held at six years, and get

9:02

a. Good and in this case for

9:05

whatever role as day's happened, it really matched

9:07

yeah see movies as it turns

9:09

out that pseudoscience is correct, not

9:12

as me and he. Will be guess, he says,

9:14

so in the nineteen

9:17

sixties he moved to

9:19

Paris, he's in his

9:21

late teens and early twenties, his

9:24

father bankrolls his

9:27

lodging, his clothing, he buys

9:29

him. A Mercedes all kinds of, stuff

9:32

and Karl Lagerfeld moves into the world

9:34

of fashion alongside you Sandler

9:37

on oh who became a really close

9:39

friend and us some time sort. Of

9:41

rival of his okay in

9:43

nineteen fifty four he won

9:45

the International Will Mark Prize

9:47

which was very prestigious at that

9:49

time. in fashion the judges

9:52

were balmain and she won't see

9:54

it from citizenship but go The

10:00

late sixty Use he

10:02

started working for Sandy.

10:05

And was hired on to modernize their phone

10:07

line and, ex

10:10

The more you Sixties statement gas

10:12

he works at Sandy for

10:15

the rest of. His life, he was there until

10:17

he died, oh, in sort of part time

10:19

role, and in nineteen eighty three,

10:21

he added another job when he became the creative

10:24

director. Of sure now. Where

10:26

he stayed for thirty six years

10:29

he, was about ten years after the

10:31

day The coco chanel and

10:33

people saw the brand as one that was. Sort.

10:35

Of on it's way out, yes, and

10:37

he took the brim it in new direction

10:39

he started doing ready to wear stuff from Chanel,

10:42

which is had not done before and.

10:44

, was credited with revising

10:46

the Browns, it's like how abercrombie and Fitch

10:49

was some we're hunting brand, and

10:51

then in the nineties they were like, "Let's move over to gay"

10:53

baiting a minute because as insists.

10:57

there is some writing about his design

10:59

of this time vanessa friedman with the

11:01

new york times described

11:03

it as you know they had all

11:05

of these designers who are speaking

11:07

exclusively with their own voice

11:10

rate and have very strong perspectives

11:12

and that the appeal of karl lagerfeld

11:14

was that he could be this kind of chameleon

11:17

and he could go to different brands

11:19

and go okay the key thing

11:22

about this brand is disclaimer look

18:46

the most horrible man. I

18:49

don't like a level one, it's bad, it's

18:51

yes, says mostly just like, why would

18:53

you say?

18:53

That night it's kind of like pointlessly mean

18:56

here is another one for

18:58

you with this. Our'a

19:00

a level two level three.

19:01

Or it would now we've bash Russian

19:04

man what's the next group was,

19:06

just as data on. child

19:09

ah you've got sat mothers

19:11

with their bags of chips Sitting in front of

19:13

the television and saying that sin models

19:15

are ugly, the world a beautiful

19:17

clothing. Is about dreams and illusions.

19:20

Again. No pointlessly mean yep

19:22

that's right", he also said in that same interview

19:25

quote: "No one wants to see curvy

19:27

women I'll tell you who begs

19:29

to differ and that is pornography. Websites

19:32

yes also it's inaccurate, just empirically

19:34

inaccurate, it's not true, yeah,

19:37

and I mean also you think, like quite a bit

19:39

of the stuff that Karl Lagerfeld did

19:41

and said. In the press. Was

19:44

just stating how things work.

19:46

The fashion industry base, like he

19:48

would talk about not wanting sat people to,

19:50

whereas close because nobody wants to look at them, but

19:53

also.

19:54

None of the other couture houses were designing

19:56

anything for plus I be bright and don't

19:58

think any of them do now. Right, right

20:00

aside from occasion. Not casting

20:03

and runway shows that he was it. Sort

20:05

of thing it out loud and that was

20:07

the part that people often. responded

20:10

to Sway Hazard of a Mixed reaction

20:12

to All of This Race For", he says. The terrible

20:15

things and he gets held accountable, but also

20:17

sort of unintended side effect. Then. Of that

20:20

is that he become sort of scapegoat and

20:22

Weezer walk away with the impression that, like other

20:25

designers are somehow better because they're

20:27

not saying it in the press. Right

20:29

because it the other houses, if you ask

20:31

them, why do you have plus sized people

20:33

in your shows, they would give you some euphemism

20:35

bullshit our brand as particular?

20:38

Look, and our traditions go back long

20:40

way in this is what we're called "blah, blah takes

20:42

Blair lot of effort to become size inclusive

20:45

and we want to become sure that we're doing it right we're

20:47

not ever gonna doing it whereas if

20:49

you're just like yeah to like looking at that people as bad

20:51

people suck the as basically their beliefs

20:53

they're just saying it in is completely different way or like

20:55

making excuses in addition to all of that

20:57

see in the press said

21:00

That Adele was quote a little

21:02

too fat, oh, fuck

21:04

off. And then he opposed. The I'll

21:07

tell her and said his

21:09

remarks were taken out of context because

21:11

he was really talking about Lana Del

21:13

Rey famously. to

21:15

fact it's is really immature way

21:18

to be public figure yet another

21:20

these kinds of quotes attract more

21:22

journalists because they know that anger good

21:24

quotes out of you and they know that they're

21:26

going to get clicks on their stories and attention

21:28

on their stories because you're not saying something boring

21:30

and an anti And it's minimum

21:32

of three.

21:33

Then. Story is raised, it's like you say something

21:35

fucked up about a person or community

21:37

that person or community response,

21:39

and then you respond to their response, yeah,

21:42

so here are. "A bunch of those minute I'm just gonna

21:44

do some quick hits of like personal insults,

21:46

sliding glass lightning round", he said,

21:48

"Heidi klum was quote too heavy

21:51

and has to" Be bust to be runway

21:53

mod. He, he said, that

21:55

Kate Middleton was romantic beauty, but that

21:57

he didn't like Pippa Middleton face, and she

21:59

said. Only show her back

22:02

cause, he said that lady di. The

22:04

quote so pretty and so sweet. That

22:06

she was stupid uncle and

22:08

about Seal Hunt from them

22:10

partner for my yard quote: "I am no dermatologist,

22:13

but I want my God the mine looks better

22:15

than his see is covered in craters

22:18

why this is like middle schools

22:21

dollars. nonsense

22:23

he also picked a fight with Merrill. The

22:25

reproaching maybe I'm.

22:28

adele after Adele Seal

22:31

after. Maple Street to

22:33

the throw in beyond say that pseudonymous

22:36

sister lives, he told women's

22:38

wear daily that he'd been working on Oscar's

22:40

address for Meryl Streep, but that.

22:42

One of her wraps called him and said

22:44

that he didn't need to anymore because. They. Found someone

22:46

who would pay her to wear the dress

22:49

time so in women's wear

22:51

daily, he said quote genius actress

22:54

but cheapness also know later,

22:57

said that he misunderstood. And that wasn't true,

22:59

but that was, like, after the interview went out,

23:02

meryl Streep released statement saying that he

23:04

had quote unquote defamed her

23:06

am for designer that she chose. It's

23:09

dick behavior it's his book behavior

23:11

total dick behavior. we

23:13

are now going to move into

23:16

extremely bananas

23:18

racism or is it Really problematic

23:20

in this level to with you.

23:22

The a choice prime see problematic

23:25

assess, this is photo

23:27

shoot that he did with claudia Schiffer

23:29

in twenty ten.

23:32

Oh, wow, oh, that's okay.

23:34

Yellow face and blackface lot

23:37

like it's a black and white saying sort of like.

23:39

The portfolios and it's

23:41

different look so one she's like, sort

23:44

of office lady and one she's

23:46

Marie Antoinette. Then in

23:48

one she's like a. an asian

23:51

lady in than any other ones you

23:52

The black lady, yeah, it's like a horse

23:54

is an afro like some block size aunts

23:57

is not grass pretty bad enough.

24:00

The US. He said this about

24:02

Michelle Obama.

24:04

I was just gonna say it's after he went after

24:06

Adela Merrill three was like who's next Michelle

24:08

Obama other.

24:10

than others have lived for joy mean here

24:12

it is i'm so sorry that i be

24:15

rebus god It was my

24:17

favorite lot. Of Mrs Obama is when

24:19

a journalist as her she thought her skirts were

24:21

not too tight and she answered, "Why don't you

24:23

like my big black ass this

24:25

is line I admire she got me with that?"

24:28

That. That's not a real quote, please

24:30

read the next court that I just say, oh, okay, christina

24:33

Shake, director of communications for First Lady

24:35

Michelle Obama, has released a statement regarding

24:38

Lagerfeld. Comment saying Mrs Obama

24:40

never made that statement select

24:42

so he fabricated and event in which

24:45

black lady said, "Why don't you like my

24:47

big black ass either this

24:49

is something?" He invented whole cloth slim

24:51

deeply racist brain or.

24:54

it's an anecdote that somebody else

24:57

told yeah and he believed it with

24:59

deeply risa spraying also michelle

25:01

obama skirts or Hey,

25:04

like the whole premise of the. Story of the make any sense

25:06

it's weird, she dressed

25:09

beautifully, I think, budget.

25:11

Really pretty conservatively, as First

25:13

Lady's tend to do now, we

25:16

are now moving in

25:18

to the industrial string. Clear

25:20

the room shit in.

25:23

Peter Robinson, when he said

25:25

a thing that is little bit confusing, but definitely

25:28

both deeply as lama phobia.

25:31

Oh, now and deeply anti Semitic.

25:34

In France he's talking. About Angle

25:36

Miracle who he was not fan

25:39

of mostly. around her

25:42

immigration policies which he thought were all

25:44

too lax and too permissive and that's

25:46

from germany was like losing sense of self

25:48

the german argument amongst the far right in

25:50

germany yes see allowed in

25:52

roughly one million syrian refugees

25:55

in country of eighty million people i'm so

25:57

sorry for making you read this and here we go

25:59

one

26:00

The not even if they're decades between

26:02

them kill millions of Jews so

26:04

you can bring millions of their worst enemies

26:06

in the place I know someone in Germany

26:08

who took a young. The Syrian and after four days

26:10

said the greatest thing Germany

26:13

invented.

26:13

When the Holocaust holy

26:16

shit right so,

26:18

he's saying the young Syrian

26:20

was saying.

26:22

That the greatest thing Germany invented

26:24

with the whole of us all.

26:27

Then he's fucking saying this isn't.

26:29

The see a lot of reactionary rhetoric. Then.

26:31

Really, oh, it's not me, it's Syrian refugees

26:34

hate Jews, Syrian refugees hate gays,

26:36

this is the dave Chappelle trans people

26:38

bullied my trans friends into

26:40

dying by suicide, yeah, he's

26:42

using. A minority group to

26:45

stigmatize another one yeah so

26:47

after this talk show

26:49

appearance where he says this rapes

26:52

he also drew a political

26:54

cartoon that. was published

26:57

in say magazine

26:59

in germany it

27:01

showed Hitler thinking

27:04

single merc. Oh. My God,

27:07

the well, Merkel says, "What

27:09

have I done even a good joke

27:11

percent even them, but the same political cartoon

27:14

it is magic trick rhetorically

27:16

speaking to be like?" What if

27:19

people who support people of other

27:21

races laughs are the real

27:23

Nazi out that that's

27:25

why everyone hates Hitler because he was nice to minorities,

27:28

okay, are you ready for? More industrial

27:30

strength who are so

27:32

Karl Lagerfeld had some things

27:34

to say about

27:37

model setting boundaries will start

27:39

there he. said I

27:41

read somewhere that now you must ask.

27:43

For model if she's comfortable with posing

27:46

it's simply too much from now on as

27:48

designer you can't do anything if you don't

27:50

want your pants pulled about don't become a model

27:52

join nunnery there's always place for

27:54

you in convent meet A.

27:57

after he said that rose mcgowan called

27:59

for

28:00

boycott OF CHANEL We I'm just

28:02

like sure I don't will continue

28:04

to boycott Chanel gather some

28:07

real. social justice warrior here are reason

28:09

if a lot of course clothing from

28:11

chanel It's really interesting, has A?

28:13

These quotes and I learned we read them after

28:15

having read his biography I.

28:18

was just thinking about how

28:20

if you how's of parents

28:23

who is as intensely

28:26

judgmental and rejecting as

28:28

his mom was i could see

28:30

how you get to what are you complaining about never

28:32

complained added the old man just

28:34

figured well right like that's like not an uncommon

28:37

response sam sort of came to

28:39

think of him as a guy who now The

28:41

had chance, but also never wanted

28:43

chance, this is also challenge.

28:45

"The social progress in some way because

28:48

there's always a population of people who

28:50

lived during the time that you're trying to change,

28:53

yet think of something like spanking your kids"

28:56

You're saying will spanking your kids as. That of people

28:58

probably shouldn't do it anymore. The there's massive

29:00

population of tens of.

29:01

Millions. Of people who like what I got spanked feel

29:03

like yes that's that's, what

29:05

we were trying to say in select that's the problem

29:08

guess so Michael have

29:11

a little. Tiny pallet cleanser for you

29:13

to thank God I have a fondness for sweatpants,

29:16

oh yeah, I don't know you feel about sweatpants

29:18

in am right now delightful, well,

29:20

you'll be glad. To know what Pearl Lagerfeld

29:22

has to say about sweatpants oh yes,

29:26

this is as sweat

29:28

pants or a sign of deceased You

29:30

lost control of your life that you bought you.

29:32

Sweat pants that's true in my absolutely,

29:36

accurate, I take like everything said

29:38

about him. previously anyway

29:41

sisters so that the

29:43

public legacy and karl lagerfeld

29:45

i'm so sorry it is Remember

29:48

saying that the fashion industry

29:50

didn't drum this guy out years

29:52

ago rights, it's always so weird

29:55

to me when industries hold on

29:57

to figures like this for so long

29:59

as it's.

30:00

So irreplaceable, can you just get

30:02

someone doesn't really say anything?

30:04

Publicly about Hitler except he's

30:06

bad, yeah, I mean, the okay

30:09

far are you ready to dig

30:11

in to the Karl Lagerfeld

30:13

diet book Time, yes,

30:15

first things first am going

30:17

to?

30:18

Oh, up a picture of the cover,

30:21

have you seen the cover of the Karl Lagerfeld, I have

30:23

no? There you go.

30:25

Any genes times gauges as this

30:28

book cut jeans over the booths

30:31

is that would put that means the swastika or.

30:33

The your boots like the theater like

30:35

skinny jeans, it and bell bottoms,

30:37

it looks insane years ago. Losses

30:39

on it looks like their spats

30:42

it looks like he's wearing a denim despair it's

30:45

I'm. not into That also discovered the so

30:47

is this book. One

30:49

release in two thousand and two in Germany

30:52

and two thousand and five and the U.S. so it's also

30:54

like different never from time Where

30:56

is he short king, he is nuts,

30:59

Vegas, five eleven, I thought he

31:01

was one of my people but also his issue?

31:04

precisely that. i'm

31:06

not sitting on the t on a

31:08

Oh, it says the Karl Lagerfeld die

31:10

at San hose, and I guess the offer

31:13

it's as Doctor Jean Claude, mood Ray",

31:15

yes, Sir Karl Lagerfeld didn't write

31:17

it, he did not right.

31:19

What? Did he design the diet he went

31:21

to the doctor Frank and he said

31:23

he wanted to be quote unquote a perfect clotheshorse

31:26

at hundred and thirty two pounds and

31:28

five? eleven Wow that's then

31:31

that is thin, so that is what we're seeing

31:33

on this cover, presumably is that

31:35

weights raids. The so

31:38

he. lost ninety two Home

31:40

in about thirteen months is his claim

31:43

doing this die as. What he doesn't

31:45

talk about very much publicly is that he

31:47

started putting on way. When his

31:49

partner died oh his partner

31:51

was jock he tested positive

31:53

for HIV in nineteen eighty four and

31:56

died in nineteen eighty nine in.

31:58

his final days By all accounts

32:01

he sort of self isolated quite bit and

32:03

only allowed Carl to visit him and,

32:06

Carl had an extra bad

32:08

or caught split in his hospital room

32:10

so he could stay around the clock.

32:13

so this is league potentially

32:15

to be links rate the psych major

32:17

traumatic events it's also so

32:19

frustrating to me that people can go through experiences

32:22

like this

32:23

Somehow not pick up empathy

32:25

along the way, yeah, if

32:27

you've gained weight after a traumatic

32:30

event, you think okay zooming out

32:32

obviously this person's going to have more

32:34

empathy.

32:35

Of like fat people see I know

32:37

it's so rough to read about it because you're

32:39

like boy. oh boy my heart

32:41

breaks that's a horrible experience

32:44

and then after that

32:46

is when he started all of his media trolling

32:49

shit has so

32:52

I read the. entirety

32:55

Of the karl Lagerfeld the at it,

32:58

was fun at times

33:01

and mostly just an astonishing

33:03

waste of my time did you did you make

33:05

any recipes I'd made no reference?

33:08

Because don't have a rabbit to braise

33:10

that I have as a business

33:12

as fancy and so friends and

33:15

still so joyous, book

33:18

itself as a. Non Karl Lagerfeld

33:20

branded but it's written by Jean

33:22

Claude who. dray there are two

33:25

different forwards one written

33:27

by each of them and they take

33:29

totally different tax zone

33:32

clotted raise is all about the obesity

33:34

epidemic and how diet like this will help

33:36

fight it seems scientists from

33:38

what he sees as individuals bad choices

33:41

he talks about how like sadness didn't

33:43

used to be problem in france but

33:45

now french women are eating like americans

33:48

so they're getting fat like americans

33:51

And he also sort of seems like he's

33:53

gonna be compassionate about it more and

33:55

then it. Here's what he has to

33:57

say. The about fat people

33:59

in that for?

34:00

The word how know he.

34:02

says overweight people were more

34:04

and more numerous or paradoxically

34:06

the unloved of our time They are rejected,

34:09

sometimes insulted, if discriminated against,

34:11

and they have more difficulty than others and fine.

34:13

The work and their place in society if

34:15

they don't end up. Isolating themselves, they

34:18

find themselves, I see. The by others. The

34:20

by us. The problem is

34:22

a problem that.

34:23

Why? You gotta get then don't,

34:26

make things better for fat people just get yourself

34:28

out of there I love thing where they just mention

34:30

wait stigma in these books and then. Just like do

34:32

nothing with it, like

34:35

fat people stigma entirely wait

34:37

you're how nothing the fat and why fat

34:39

people. suck and where

34:42

longer for meanwhile

34:45

is entirely about vanity

34:47

nice

34:48

And it is absolute fucking

34:50

word salad, oh yeah, this

34:52

is a. Longer quo. That

34:55

is a moment where I kind of appreciate

34:57

him first being honest with readers

34:59

about where he's coming from, it's as

35:01

if you attach no importance to weight problems,

35:04

if not being able to or new trendy

35:06

small size closed, as not cause you any.

35:08

The read this book is. The for you.

35:11

Hope reasons are an excellent motive for losing weight

35:13

and for some they are truly vital but.

35:16

If you are lucky enough not to need.

35:17

Go on a diet for such reasons there's nothing

35:20

to stop you from pretending to others that health

35:22

is indeed your motivation order.

35:24

to avoid having Explain to them that

35:26

your true. Deeper motives. Have

35:28

nothing to do with health at least it's

35:30

not this and. The US right

35:32

honey actually, Aubrey, how do you feel

35:35

about this about people who

35:37

do restrict fuel, food research and exercise

35:39

whatever they like I want have a six pack Amazon

35:41

the next six months doing that, I mean? feel like

35:44

with all of the stuff like the people get to.

35:46

Whatever they want with their bodies and if

35:48

they want to pursue bodybuilding

35:51

or weight loss or whatever like

35:53

go to town I. don't

35:55

particularly mind i do feel

35:57

often like People are not

35:59

in. Touch with their actual motivations

36:02

for throwing stuff like Rez, race

36:04

and people who go I'm doing this for my

36:06

health and I'll go, oh, what's? Then they're like

36:08

a particular health condition, is there something in

36:10

the like snow I just need to like, get health?

36:12

Then. United way healthy and know, and

36:15

I'm like would honestly prefer in that

36:17

case of these his health with man feel

36:19

like I'm fatter than want to be. Him personally

36:22

have a preference for that because then, at least, it's

36:24

honest and I can meet them with my own honesty

36:26

and say that's fine, don't really want to. Hear

36:28

about it that okay rights but like we're

36:31

all in the honesty together rate versus

36:34

if you say to someone who's sort of doing

36:36

this a more fests I.

36:38

want to lose weight quote unquote for my health sir

36:40

broadly right if i then

36:43

say hey don't really want to talk

36:45

to you about this person like will

36:47

often than have an outsize reaction of like

36:49

don't you care about my health don't you care that i'm

36:51

doing something good for my celebrates the

36:53

blue back as much

36:55

Then. Waiter, I find when

36:57

folks are less honest and grounded

36:59

about it with themselves, or there's

37:01

also a mean one of the problems

37:03

with the house disguise

37:05

that lot of this. vanity stuff, where's

37:08

is that it then implies universal

37:10

rule that everybody has to be thin biggest

37:13

sin, is healthy, whereas you

37:15

could descend, see, I want to get a six?

37:17

Pack saying: "As well, yeah, you

37:19

ever go for yourself is the same way like

37:21

I want to be able to run a ten k or the into

37:23

the. Irena really care of anybody else from that

37:25

and case I'm doing. This is a hobby, yeah,

37:28

hopefully maybe it's potentially

37:30

not going to. them to like

37:32

be city to other people who don't have the same. The goal,

37:35

yeah, but it also plays into the idea

37:37

that this is like public

37:39

acts of moral rightness,

37:42

life and that is social interaction,

37:44

the I have no desire to participate, as

37:46

yeah, have no desire.

37:49

To congratulate people on

37:51

the accident and privilege of their

37:53

health friends, I have no desire

37:56

to participate in a conversation that these

37:58

I'll use body like mine. And

38:00

lists up bodies that I have never had

38:02

and that I've always been. That idea that's

38:04

the part that is hardest for me is not

38:06

what. There are people do with their bodies is

38:09

how they want to engage me, but

38:11

there's also, guess, the argument that

38:13

focusing on your own vanity

38:15

distract you from.

38:17

Who is creating a standards of vanity

38:19

biggest, another thing that he could do, I mean,

38:21

if he's acknowledging the

38:23

think reality that in the fact.

38:25

Then. Industry he will lose

38:27

standing as a fat person, one

38:30

reaction to that is like, "Why should lose ninety pounds,

38:33

another reaction to that is like, "Will the fashion

38:35

industry should be?" More inclusive of people who aren't

38:37

ninety pounds skinnier than me see, and I

38:40

curl Lagerfeld have a fuck ton of power

38:42

right what would it look like to try to create?

38:45

Change I, was gonna say he might have

38:47

done that we didn't see it, but that are like he definitely

38:49

didn't fucking do that he doesn't have yeah but he

38:51

did. Your hitler can! even

38:53

with the same like i'm trying to get six

38:55

pack by january first there

38:57

is question in wide is that open

38:59

opportunities for me but i wouldn't have

39:02

otherwise he does that send begs the question who

39:04

doesn't have those opportunities yeah emanating

39:06

such rates also think he

39:08

leans really fucking hard

39:11

into dieting is a process

39:13

whereby you can make yourself who you really

39:16

are oh don't

39:17

Now is ruining it for years ago for you

39:21

it. is a lie to think that Parents does

39:23

not matter.

39:24

The day it allows you to live in harmony

39:26

with your some of it.

39:27

The do not need to be a philosophical

39:29

explanation, nor all those excuses

39:32

behind. People often feel the need to take

39:34

refuge. A diet can help us.

39:36

Discover or define our real personality,

39:38

we are what we used to be, not

39:41

where we have become.

39:42

It is often possible to go back with a new

39:44

beginning, different and encouraging

39:46

one, this is fucking Mary and William's.

39:48

This is refrigerator magnets hold.

39:51

up put on of for

39:53

It is a soup I don't even own, he's talking

39:55

about, don't totally understand, by been

39:57

pretty sure like fully deeply

39:59

does. The great yeah, don't think that

40:01

die it's help you. They discovered

40:04

their real person. Now. At ease, for

40:06

example, just sent you the

40:08

last couple of lines of that quote, it

40:10

was three times as law, know my God

40:12

and ten times as incoherent of

40:14

the. "Stuff hurts, but it also indicates a he doesn't, he

40:17

doesn't actually like know why he's doing this",

40:19

he does say about the diet itself

40:21

and about dieting, he says, quote from.

40:23

Me diet without complicated instructions

40:26

is not diet, it has to be

40:28

sort of. Punishment something that

40:30

you have to do even if you haven't

40:32

impose that on yourself at it as sock

40:35

forever it, out of

40:37

it does And he says is

40:39

also in this forward, he says that. Sort

40:41

of expects to the way that he puts it is that he

40:43

needs to quote unquote follow.

40:45

this diet for the rest of his life i mean

40:47

again it's on us that seems to be the

40:50

headline with this book there are numerous

40:52

studies of people that have taken off wait significant

40:54

amounts of weight and kept it off and Then.

40:57

Main through line is ongoing

40:59

restriction, never ending research and, and

41:01

a ton of exercise, yeah, our

41:03

two hours day exercise like forever

41:06

or in the case of like people

41:08

who. Are on the biggest loser four to

41:10

six hours of exercise, yeah, they and you still

41:13

regained wait, you just have to be hungry,

41:15

thirsty, glass sicily talk about what

41:17

the. Actual diet is so, yeah, gimme

41:19

recipes on I'm grandma. It is hold

41:22

the spoon. Light program

41:25

can no joke they don't even

41:27

start. Discussing the

41:29

diet itself until.

41:30

The age eighty two nice that's

41:33

like us in this episode Earth.

41:35

There's so much book

41:38

before their his diet the. day

41:40

it is basically just a very low fat low calorie

41:42

diet there's no red meat there's no

41:44

alcohol karl lagerfeld

41:46

also says that it's helped him to stay

41:48

on the diet by knowing that if

41:51

he wants to eat something he can just put

41:53

it in his mouth and then spit it out

41:55

isn't that like some anorexia does

41:57

not like an eating disorder than the lot

41:59

of what

42:00

Going to talk about is not great

42:02

oh the diet has unlimited diet

42:04

soda, which was good for Car Lagerfeld

42:06

because he reportedly drank ten diet

42:08

cokes a day oh my God, but also

42:10

he was sponsored by Diet Pepsi

42:13

oh there for has. One

42:15

would want penis quote, endless capsules.

42:18

If to take multi vitamin, you have to take spear

42:20

alina. Why you're supposed to seek to

42:22

saying you're also supposed

42:24

to have multiple proteins, Sashays

42:27

each day.

42:29

Would you like to know where you

42:31

can get the protein packets and the supplements

42:33

oh God is it like on the psalms lilies a like one

42:36

like one shop in Paris the cells

42:38

never know?

42:40

it's french business called laborious

42:43

war son racks okay would

42:45

you like to know who the chief medical

42:47

advisor is The laboratory

42:50

son racks.

42:51

Is it Jean Claude who dragged out,

42:55

of he's like promoting his own products?

42:58

that out itself is also really fucking

43:00

confusing if i'm honest There

43:02

are three different levels,

43:04

but he doesn't really say. Like

43:07

supposed to do which level so high level.

43:10

"The we are you can do for several

43:12

months", he says, "that's twelve

43:14

hundred, sixteen hundred calories a day"

43:17

Level. To which is where Karl Lagerfeld

43:19

spent most of his time you can do for several

43:21

months with medical supervision that once

43:24

a thousand to twelve hundred calories

43:26

per day and, Level

43:28

one is eight to nine hundred

43:30

calories per day room and he says

43:32

he should only do that one for two to three weeks. i

43:36

mean you'll lose weight seizure well

43:38

as can't stick to it very

43:40

long you'll be miserable and grumpy and you'll

43:42

get any work done he also

43:44

says on this diet

43:46

you are not supposed to get

43:49

exercise That's

43:53

a weird vasily. The three thing too,

43:55

because you don't want to have muscles, you wanna be

43:57

just reedy and sense of close.

44:00

Hang on you don't do that but

44:02

it's even better than that there's

44:04

a quote for yeah oh God OK it's,

44:07

as it is unreasonable to ask

44:09

someone on diet to undergo any specific

44:12

exercise regime. firstly

44:14

because you have to really were yourself out

44:16

to burn calories and secondly because

44:19

exercise runs the risk of meeting you hungry

44:22

to sum up little more walking and taking

44:24

the stairs instead of the elevator won't do you

44:26

any harm but forcing yourself

44:28

into action won't do you any good

44:31

Or physical activity is concerned there's only one

44:33

rule do what you feel like.

44:35

After we say I.

44:39

mean I do for very like

44:42

no no, you can't.

44:43

If exercise because when you exercise, I don't know if

44:45

you know this, you get hungry. So,

44:47

but then he also includes this whole mess of

44:49

things that burn calories.

44:52

He says you can burn a hundred forty calories

44:54

and hour by painting room. One

44:57

hundred and thirty calories in our by sewing.

45:00

Two. Hundreds and eighty calories in our by playing

45:02

the piano and, hundred

45:04

and sixty calories in our by shopping

45:07

sites that is walking into shopping

45:09

is any different than walking. But this

45:11

also nsaids it's totally fucking

45:13

vague, but I love that he's like, you

45:16

know, hypothetically if someone who did this diet

45:18

maybe someone who's on the cover of this. Book wanted

45:20

to do a bunch of sewing and shopping jasper

45:23

and some calories as have another thing of. us didn't

45:26

somewhat karl lagerfeld hobbies burn

45:28

calories he talks about side effects

45:32

Hunger and fatigue and like constipation

45:35

then the all the sort of stuff and he like but,

45:39

you know that will all stop if you just follow

45:41

the diet correctly that's not true.

45:44

it's wrong this is like the primary

45:46

mano myth of diet is

45:48

that you'll read some sort of plateau

45:51

at which point this restriction gets

45:53

easier but them they're searching it's harder

45:55

your body fights back is never a

45:57

point at which Or nine hundred.

46:00

Hillary's he like move your hunger

46:02

anymore it's like you're fucking a hair start falling out in

46:04

clumps he also says that

46:06

you might start feeling cold all

46:08

the time and I'm like yeah that somebody

46:11

around, here near to death. any

46:15

says you might have some hair loss

46:17

and you might lose your period but those

46:19

are both those things are reversible don't worry about

46:21

super sustainable once you become

49:12

It is fully like twenty

49:15

page product catalog

49:17

at the end of the book that's disappointing

49:20

sites, that's the point. The

49:22

border now I'm and now I'm livid definitely,.

49:26

i will say there has been pre Men

49:30

last few years as people, sir, doug

49:32

this up. But. At the time

49:34

there was a writer for the New York Times, he decided

49:37

to try the Karl Lagerfeld diet

49:39

and rude about as and this, and then they died

49:42

it's A. Really good, funny,

49:44

like straight up, take down of

49:47

toss about doing the diet and how the protein

49:49

sashays have to be mixed with blender,

49:52

oh, so she talks about. Taking whole last

49:54

fucking blender. The into

49:56

the offices of the New York Times.

49:59

By day three.

50:01

On a diet she starts describing parties

50:04

as quotes busby, Berkeley

50:06

scale fantasy sequences of

50:08

denial.

50:10

"Many snatched because she's only do and nine hundred calories

50:13

a day see can't eat shit

50:15

now", she says as he did.

50:16

The diet for two weeks and lost

50:19

five pounds, that's probably dangerous,

50:21

probably not breaks, yeah.

50:24

Then we did, she describes it, is like a car. June

50:26

where someone watches person turn into like

50:29

turkey leg or like cupcake something

50:31

that other of us so

50:33

as this diet book is sort of resurfaced

50:36

is out of print now it's hard to find

50:39

I. paid an inordinate amount of

50:41

money for the copy that i have so don't

50:43

do and really yeah was like sixty bucks

50:46

now we're is out of

50:48

whack him demands but your

50:50

lou Than five pounds every two weeks sustainable.

50:53

People notice a specific names such

50:55

as others do this for ten more years

50:57

and then I'll be little. piece

50:59

of other physicists that you have

51:02

series of what actually happened

51:04

Because I'm thinking that like that.

51:06

Dr. went to Karl Lagerfeld

51:08

and was like, "I wanna write a book promoting my products,

51:11

let me slap your name on it" That feels very

51:13

possible", Karl Lagerfeld also. Hawks.

51:15

In press and in the book about

51:17

how bunch of people think he just had we

51:19

lost surgery, oh, okay, interesting

51:22

that to lose ninety pounds in

51:24

thirteen months is really.

51:26

Significance: Yeah, there's no real

51:29

evidence either way, it's yeah,

51:31

this thing about like Doctor Who dragged

51:33

created this diet for Karl

51:36

Lagerfeld, it's like to patently false

51:38

rate like that seems. "Like no way I don't

51:40

buy it and also it seems like it's a

51:42

tough written by this random Dr.

51:44

Karl Lagerfeld wrote totally incoherence

51:47

forward, but it's clear that Karl"

51:49

Lagerfeld had any other creative

51:52

input into this book at all, yeah,

51:54

I think that's probably true. He wrote

51:56

the foreword, which is like for pay.

51:58

They do a slight. The gobbledygook

52:00

nonsense. The only four pages long

52:03

it's.

52:05

What? Are you just might actually generous I think it's

52:07

like Santa hats and,

52:09

he provides these little quotes

52:11

that are like three sentences and each chapter

52:14

and their highlighted in these? Will pull out boxes

52:17

the you're like, ooh, years with Karl Lagerfeld as to

52:19

say, and then it's fucking terrible

52:21

nonsense again and he might not even are written

52:23

those for for. For for. us

52:25

right that's right there so there

52:27

you have it i will give the final

52:30

word to a The nutritionist

52:32

with cooking light who wrote this? About

52:35

the Karl Lagerfeld diet and twenty nineteen

52:37

bottom line this, is really

52:39

just another quick six diet plan that

52:41

worked for celebrity and is very likely

52:43

to be hard to implement for the average person

52:46

living an average life yeah it's tabloid

52:48

it's not way to live as you think the whole thing

52:50

as ghosts written by prologue er folk pop
