4:40
so all you girls out there who get

4:46
to me I fixed it I
4:49
don't know if I did it
4:51
because why the fuck is midland
4:53
my number one artist I
4:57
was gonna post that people gonna be like who
4:59
the fuck is midland people
5:02
saying just cuz I'm
5:05
living on the rocks that
5:07
fuck for some
5:09
reason my spirit needed to hear that you know
5:11
what it is is I like was getting into
5:13
midland like exploring other albums
5:15
and stuff and on my Google I
5:18
would go into the kitchen and I'd
5:20
say you know Google
5:23
because I don't want to trigger any Google's if you have
5:26
because every time I say that shit everyone in my house
5:28
goes off every single one of my house I
5:30
would say Google play Midland and
5:32
then that was the number one song of
5:34
the play and so every time and I'd be
5:36
like skip but it would still play it's clocking
5:38
in those hours whether or not I want
5:41
it to okay so
5:43
whatever middle is my number one artist
5:45
I don't give a shit I'm angry
5:47
I'm literally angry okay here's
5:50
the number one thing on my mind today
5:52
I feel fucking ugly do you
5:54
ever have days where you just
5:56
feel ugly that chicktock
5:58
that was like I feel I feel fat
6:00
when I have oily hair. I
6:05
feel fat when I have oily
6:07
hair. Yeah, that's
6:09
science, dude. I don't know how else
6:11
to put that. That perfectly sums it up.
6:15
I have a few zits on my face and
6:18
I have not been taking care of my skin.
6:20
I've been really in the throes of seasonal
6:22
depression. I just sit and stare.
6:25
I just sit and stare at the wall. I have
6:27
no motivation to do anything. It is currently 7pm right
6:29
now. I've been waiting around all day to do
6:32
this. I've been putting this off. It's
6:34
in my fucking house. This
6:36
studio is in my house. And
6:39
I was like, I just can't do it. Like,
6:41
get a grip, dude. It's
6:43
not that serious. Oh,
6:46
oh, you're sad because it's cold outside.
6:50
Grow up. Oh,
6:54
I don't have any motivation. It dropped
6:56
below 60 degrees. Oh my fucking
6:58
God. Like, are you serious? She's
7:01
a baby. I don't know. Oh,
7:04
that's a problem these days. No one wants to get up
7:06
and fucking work. Kim
7:08
Kardashian is so... When you think about it, Kim Kardashian
7:10
is the thought leader. When
7:13
you think about it, Kim Kardashian really like, we should
7:15
really look to her. For
7:17
her, for everything. Anyway,
7:20
yeah, I feel fucking ugly. And
7:22
also my hormones are so off balance.
7:25
They're so off balance. I just had this thought that on
7:27
the bottom of my ghost, vocal pop, I need to write
7:30
Brit, like Andy in Toy Story.
7:33
I'm going to go on all my Funko Pops and write, Britney
7:35
in the pop. This
7:38
is property of Britney. Yeah, that's
7:40
actually my ghost Funko Pop. That's actually my
7:42
Mandalorian Funko Pop. That's literally me. Okay.
7:47
Yeah, I feel sad and ugly, dude. And there's
7:49
nothing wrong with being sad and ugly. It's
7:54
just, you know, I'm not feeling that great. Not
7:58
feeling my best. I've been breaking out everywhere. I
8:00
have not been taking good care of my skin. I tried
8:03
out I
8:05
got a free sample
8:07

8:28

9:22
what you're gonna point fingers at me like I'm the
9:24
only person that ever watched that video fuck off That
9:28
video of Shane Dawson when he put
9:30
Kylie skin all over his face and
9:32
he Under
9:38
a fucking heat lamp he turns beat
9:41
red I Was
9:44
in the bathroom in my little my little robe
9:46
and I was like, I'm gonna be a skincare
9:49
girl I'm gonna try out this roach pussy this
9:51
roach pussy cream and I put on my
9:53
face My
9:56
skin like peeled back it was just exposed
9:59
muscle Let's just expose
10:01
tendons and muscle and teeth.
10:03
NOOOOOOO! I'm
10:06
morphing to Shane Dawson. Hit with some of you guys!
10:08
Yes! I was
10:10
like, what the fuck? So, I don't know
10:12
if anyone else has had this experience with... La
10:15
Roche-Poucet. That shit
10:17
had burned me. And then guess what? I go
10:19
on the ingredient list, fragrance. Parfume?!
10:21
The fuck did you put in
10:23
parfume in Station Step 4?! It's
10:26
2023! Get
10:29
that motherfucking fragrance
10:32
out of my skin tear! Ooh,
10:36
La Roche-Poucet! Ooh! My
10:39
skin is peeling off! My
10:41
skin is flayed off the
10:43
bone! I'm spitting everywhere! I'm
10:45
so mad! Ooh,
10:49
this is so rich! I'm feeling rich! I
10:51
put it on... Acid
10:53
chemical burn. Not
10:56
really, but close. So
10:58
I will not be using that brand
11:00
again. You know, the only brand, and
11:02
this is not sponsored, this is Horse's
11:04
Mouth to the listening ear of Broski
11:06
Nation. The only skincare
11:09
line that I've found that
11:11
actually works for my sensitive
11:13
skin, literally like, you breathe on me too heavy and
11:15
I'll get a rash, is Tatcha.
11:18
And I use the Tatcha cleansing oil and that
11:20
exfoliating rice polish or whatever it
11:22
is. And not once has
11:25
it burned me, not once has it
11:27
ever had a negative effect. It keeps
11:29
my skin smooth and clear. It is
11:31
the only one I've really
11:34
ever tried that consistently does
11:36
well for me. And then I do
11:39
use the Charlotte Tilbury moisturizer, which is
11:41
so fucking expensive for no reason! It's
11:43
a lotion! It's a lotion! Okay,
11:45
why's the lotion $98 fucking dollars? But
11:48
it's one of the only moisturizers I've found that
11:51
isn't that greasy texture. But
11:53
also isn't that? Like I tried this Neutrogena
11:56
moisturizer that was this water
11:58
gel shit. That just- about dried me
12:00
out like a strip of jerky. Like
12:02
I was left out to bake in the sun.
12:05
I put it on and I was like, you couldn't even tell I
12:07
put anything on. And I was thinking,
12:09
what was it like when you overwater a plant? Like,
12:12
is it just so thirsty? My skin's like, please,
12:14
please, please, please, please. Please more,
12:16
please more. And I'm like, ah,
12:19
no, no, no. Anyway,
12:23
yeah, I will not be continuing
12:26
use of my roach pussy
12:28
skincare line. Anyway,
12:31
I'm feeling just ugly and bad. And sometimes
12:33
you have days like that and that's fine.
12:37
Also, like I was saying, my hormones are out of balance. And
12:40
I guess there's a fucking music ex family
12:42
living in my throat. My
12:45
hormones are out of balance. I
12:47
don't know if this happens to anyone else, okay? And
12:50
all of you bitches are gonna try to diagnose me.
12:52
And you know what? I welcome it. At this point,
12:55
fuck it. Diagnose me. Oh,
12:58
you don't have a medical degree? I don't give a shit. Just diagnose
13:00
me. Just tell me what's wrong. It
13:02
is November 30th, bordering
13:05
on December 1. And
13:07
I have not had a period since June. So
13:10
what's up with that, do you think? Like,
13:12
that is so not good. Okay,
13:15
am I the next Virgin Mary? Am I
13:17
the next immaculate conception? Y'all
13:19
know I'm tough starved. I'm not getting it. There's no way
13:21
I'm pregnant. I'm the
13:24
next immaculate conception. I'm
13:28
34 weeks today. Holy
13:31
shit, it's almost Christmas. That's
13:34
why I've been bloated, dude. Jesus,
13:37
it's the queen. It's a twin. It's
13:39
Trisha Paytas, it's the queen. Okay,
13:42
I haven't had a period since June. The
13:45
last time this happened was during the pandemic. And
13:47
I literally was so, I worried myself sick and
13:49
I went to the gyno during,
13:52
this is TMI. I don't give a fuck, dude.
13:54
I am so past the point of like, trying
13:56
to maintain boundaries. I switched back and
13:58
forth on this. I'm like
14:00
my identity online and my presence
14:03
online is rooted and based in
14:05
sharing my life experiences in
14:09
seeking relatability and community
14:12
in the things I go through and
14:14
the joy of figuring out that
14:16
people relate to what I'm talking about
14:18
because no one's ever lived a unique experience.
14:21
And so there's a benefit and reward
14:23
inherently in sharing these things, right?
14:26
Especially normalizing it. When
14:32
you talk about things like this where,
14:35
you know, it's health. This is health. It's
14:37
women's health in a way that isn't like, ew, periods.
14:42
Boys when they go to the supermarket, stink
14:44
my penis at a football. Girls
14:47
when they go to the grocery store, I
14:49
got my periods in the produce section. If
14:54
you are a person with a uterus,
14:57
it's a scary, scary thing
14:59
because your like
15:02
livelihood and your
15:05
quality of life is tied to
15:07
what's going on in there. Like
15:09
the hormone imbalances, the pain, like
15:13
it affects everything in your body and
15:15
it's just so scary. So
15:18
not having a period for six months, that's like my
15:21
hormones are very out of whack. And the last time
15:23
this happened, it was during the pandemic
15:25
and I was like, I really don't want to
15:28
go to a fucking doctor's office during the pandemic.
15:30
Like it was, it was the middle of COVID,
15:32
but I had worried myself sick. I was like
15:34
balding. I had anxiety rashes. I was like, I
15:36
don't like I'm going to die. And
15:38
so I booked an appointment and I went in and
15:41
she did a blood test and literally all
15:43
it was, all it was, low
15:46
on vitamins. Bitch, I
15:48
needed a, I needed a Flintstones gummy. I
15:51
paid so much money to go to
15:53
the doctor for her to be like, just take a
15:56
vitamin D gummy. Oh,
15:59
right. Today's
18:03

I do think my house is haunted, but I'm fine with
20:50
it. I've made peace with it. This is like a 1920s house. And
20:55
think about all the life that's been lived in this house.
21:00
It's another fucking white man of the month.
21:02
And I just, at this point, I'm past
21:04
apologies. I'm past apologies. There's
21:06
really nothing to apologize for. I
21:08
just need to hold up a mirror to
21:10
my own face and just accept that I'm
21:13
no better than this, okay? I'm
21:17
no better than this. White boy of
21:19

22:16
say it when I'm drunk and I lean
22:18
into the British accent I'll start talking like I stay pretty
22:21
at the part each and I remain I'm like I'm from
22:23
Essex me
22:25
dad works for for the Royal Air Force
22:27
like I don't know I'm back and forth
22:30
I've always been back and forth but I
22:32
did go to college sorry not college University
22:36
in Essex but I've gone back and
22:38
forth to Texas a lot you know

22:55
watching Towie the only way is Essex
22:57
and Love Island okay now
23:01
mentioning Love Island New
23:03
Castle that's bad New
23:05
Castle is such a specific English
23:09
accent and it's so it's it's
23:11
Geordie and it's close to Scottish
23:14
a little bit but it's also got
23:16
some Welsh in it and it's also got some Irish
23:19
in it and it's like very I don't
23:21
like I've been trying to pinpoint
23:26
where I've heard it before and
23:28
I oh my god I made a list hold on I have to share my list with
23:30
you okay
23:32
so I watch this I'm obsessed with accents
23:34
like that's my I think it's like a
23:37
it's a byproduct of the language thing like I'm
23:39
obsessed with learning a second language
23:41
and and dialects
23:43
within different languages and all that I
23:47
watched this video of this dude on
23:49
TikTok who also has a YouTube channel
23:51
I think called the accent guy and
23:54
he ran through all the
23:56
different a few of
23:58
the different UK accents and all the Who
26:00
gives a fuck? Raise your hand if you give a fuck!

27:12
Fender is very, very, very,
27:17
Maddie Healy coded. Hear
27:20
me out! Hear me out!
27:23
Okay, what I'm about to say! Just
27:26
hear me out, grain of salt. The
27:28
good parts of Maddie Healy, some of you guys
27:30
would argue, hey, there are none. Okay,
27:32
whatever, I'm not actually gonna give my opinion. The
27:35
good parts of Maddie Healy, the
27:40
activism, the cultural
27:42
awareness, the woke
27:45
liberal, I say that in
27:47
heavy quotations, perspective that he
27:50
brings to his art to write a song like
27:52
Love It If We Made It, to
27:54
write a song like Looking for Somebody to Love, which
27:58
is a song about school shootings, by the way. your
30:00
truth really does become
30:02
hearsay. When truth
30:05
is brought into question, you know that
30:07
is terrifying. And
30:09
poison me daddy, I've got the Jones
30:12
right through my bones, write it on
30:14
a piece of stone, a beach of
30:16
drowning three-year-olds. Rest in peace little
30:18
peep, the poetry is in the streets,
30:20
Jesus save us, modernity has failed
30:22
us. Beach of drowning three-year-olds, that
30:25
was, Maddie like tells this
30:27
story of in the UK, the
30:32
refugee crisis and how
30:35
children are always the first
30:37
victims and how it
30:39
really just shook the UK. Consultation,
30:41
degradation, fossil fueling, masturbation, immigration,
30:44
liberal kitsch, kneeling on a
30:46
pitch, that's about Colin Kaepernick
30:49
refusing to stand for the
30:51
pledge. I moved
30:54
on her like a bitch, excited
30:56
to be indicted, that's directly a reference
30:58
to Donald Trump, his famous, I
31:00
moved on her like a bitch, grabbed her by the
31:02
pussy. Unrequited house
31:05
with seven pools, thank you Kanye,
31:07
very cool. The war
31:09
has been incited and guess what,
31:11
you're all invited and you're famous,
31:13
and you're famous, modernity has
31:15
failed us. All of that together, I just like,
31:17
there's a certain, I always talk about this, there
31:20
is a certain level of
31:22
artistic excellence that is,
31:24
and I always describe
31:26
it like this, that the art is in
31:28
the marble and the artist is
31:30
merely just removing the excess pieces to reveal
31:32
that art that had to be there, it
31:35
was always there. That art always
31:37
had to be made because of course it was going to be made
31:40
and this is one of those songs to me. It's
31:42
like Maddie Healy, the 1975, this song means so much to
31:47
me because it's a
31:49
hard thing to encapsulate the feeling,
31:51
that that Bo Burnham funny feeling
31:53
of there's
31:55
so much hypocrisy and injustice
31:57
and joy and and
32:00
despair always. That is the human
32:02
experience. But we are witnessing
32:04
it on a scale that has never
32:07
been so visible to us
32:09
before. In songs like this
32:11
where it's just, it feels like a sucker
32:13
punch, just every verse is like, oh yeah and
32:16
that happened. Oh and did you forget about this? Did
32:18
you forget about this? And why was Trump praising Kanye
32:20
West? And why is this and that? It's just like,
32:22
what the fuck? And
32:24
then to throw religion into it. Jesus save us. Modernity has
32:27
failed us. I just think that this song is a work
32:29
of art. His
32:31
personal politics and his bullshit aside, whatever
32:33
Mattie Healy's done, I'm not going to
32:35
defend it. But this song changed
32:38
me. So
32:40
to bring it back to Sam Fender. He
32:43
has a song called
32:46
Hypersonic Missiles. Okay? This
32:49
song is very, very,
32:51
when I say Mattie Healy coded, that's
32:54
what I'm referring to. It's very brave
32:57
new world, you
32:59
know, big brother 1984, like this
33:04
class consciousness, helplessness,
33:09
but also being acutely
33:11
aware of, you
33:14
know, what role you might play
33:17
because we all have played a role
33:19
in colonization and
33:21
in the patriarchy.
33:26
And we have to unlearn those
33:28
things. And
33:30
Drew Afualo has been
33:32
really monumental
33:36
in my sort of understanding
33:39
of this of how you
33:41
can think you're doing the best you can. But
33:44
there are some things that are just so
33:47
inherent in our culture that uphold colonization
33:50
and uphold the patriarchy
33:52
and uphold misogyny. And
33:55
you have to make a
33:57
concerted effort to unlearn those
33:59
behaviors. And it's a hard and messy
34:01
process. And of course, I'm
34:03
only speaking on it through the lens of a white
34:05
woman. It's
34:07
so vastly different for
34:11
so many people who live in America that
34:13
I, no
34:15
one is free from the
34:18
grasp of the
34:20
patriarchal colonization of
34:23
our minds. Anyway, this
34:25
kind of is that. It's
34:27
this feeling that I feel
34:29
like I'm failing to articulate. But you
34:33
recognize all the things wrong with the world.
34:36
And there is a sort of obeisance
34:39
to these cruel elitists
34:42
where we feel that sometimes
34:45
our fate is in their hands because we
34:47
feel so powerless. And I
34:49
feel like something similar, something's happening in the
34:51
US right now, where the
34:53
cost of living is out the fucking
34:55
roof. To
34:58
be alive is just to suffer. And
35:02
I think the wealth gap
35:04
has never been more clear in
35:07
this country. And people
35:09
are literally approaching like
35:12
revolution will not be televised sort
35:14
of energy. People are fed up.
35:17
And so that level of
35:20
almost teetering towards that but still
35:22
just being feeling like
35:24
you're powerless. And that's why people don't vote. And
35:27
that's why people, even if you do vote, you're
35:29
like my vote doesn't fucking matter because no real
35:31
change is going to come from this. All of
35:34
us being forced to vote for Joe Biden was
35:36
a punch to the gut. It was the lesser of
35:39
two evils. I mean, that's my opinion. But
35:42
it's like nothing, it's so easy
35:45
to feel like, is anyone hearing
35:47
me? Is anyone seeing this?
35:50
And with this song, I think it encapsulates
35:52
that, of I'm seeing
35:54
it, I'm watching it, but what
35:56
the fuck can I do? What
35:58
can I do? I'm one person. Oh!
38:00
Oh, this is so funny! He
38:04
is one of those artists! He is one of those
38:06
artists that fucking gets it! All
38:08
the silver tongue suits and cartoons
38:10
that rule my world. It's such
38:12
a strange feeling. And
38:17
like, I hope that someone
38:19
can like, validate that
38:22
feeling like if you know it of I'm
38:25
smart enough to understand what's happening
38:27
and I'm smart enough to see
38:29
that history is repeating itself. All
38:33
the bullshit that
38:35
we're living through has happened time
38:37
and time again. Now it's just
38:39
tainted and poisoned by the idea
38:41
of technology being a variable in
38:43
it. Of technology
38:45
and cyber security and AI,
38:47
all of these things now
38:49
being influential elements and
38:52
influential factors in these
38:54
age old conflicts, you
38:57
know, human conflicts. I'm
39:00
seeing all of it happen and
39:02
I'm just like, I'm
39:04
so removed. Because you have to
39:06
be. You have to be removed
39:08
or you will literally go insane. Humans
39:11
were not meant to consume media at
39:13
the rate that we are today. I
39:15
don't know how anyone is like floating
39:17
with their head above water. It is
39:19
so all consuming
39:21
all the time. Inundated
39:24
with data and media and
39:26
memes and articles and TikToks
39:28
and videos and I can't
39:30
eat a fucking meal without
39:33
watching a tea spill video. Like I have
39:35
got to be stimulated all the time and when
39:37
I'm not I freak the fuck out. I
39:40
FREAK THE FUCK OUT! And
39:45
this isn't new. I'm not the first person to talk
39:47
about this. Everyone's talking about it.
39:50
I just feel like this music
39:53
makes it bubble up to the fucking top
39:55
for me. And I know some people don't
39:57
like to listen to music like that. Like
39:59
I know. that I know that it's kind of, you know,
40:02
that's why in the 2010s or what's it
40:04
called recession pop, like when
40:06
the world is going to shit and
40:09
the world's on fire, it's like club bangers
40:11
are coming out. Party Rock is in the
40:13
house tonight. You know, like,
40:15
like, let's just party, party or cares away.
40:19
And so I like this type of music, me,
40:23
me and then his album that came out in 2021 was about the
40:26
pandemic. And that's
40:28
a whole I could talk about it for
40:30
hours of how that it
40:32
just on top of the
40:35
technology aspect in global
40:37
conflict, the pandemic, we've never
40:39
recovered from it. If
40:41
you think we've recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic,
40:44
you are mistaken. We
40:46
don't know how to treat each other. We don't
40:48
know how to go out in public. Like, there
40:51
are things that will never be the same, obviously,
40:53
but it's like a loss
40:55
for humankind. Oh,
40:57
my God, I watch these scary TikTok sometimes I
40:59
have to stop myself of this
41:03
is we're technology
41:05
is advancing faster than humans can keep up
41:07
with and we are on the brink of
41:10
this fear of being thrust back into
41:12
the dark ages, because we can't keep up
41:14
and we're going to let it divide
41:17
us to a point that's
41:19
not fixable. And that's a real
41:22
scary thought that
41:24
we will be our own undoing as
41:27
humanity. Anyway,
41:29
but then after that comes a beautiful Renaissance. Renaissance
41:33
the movie. Anyway,
41:39
Sam Fender, Sam Finbaugh, he
41:41
has a song called How Down All
41:44
the Death Queue. And
41:47
this gives me like, I
41:50
don't know the exact nominar.
41:54
Is that the word nominar?
44:00
And I remember I literally remember
44:03
at the beginning of the pandemic I
44:05
had never used Instacart before, I had
44:07
never had like a grocery delivery service,
44:09
anything like that. This is when
44:11
they were saying like wear gloves
44:14
and masks and like disinfect
44:17
everything, disinfect your milk carton, disinfect
44:19
everything. Like it was such an
44:22
anxiety inducing thing to go to
44:24
the grocery store. And
44:26
so this is crazy because it's like oh
44:29
my god it made all those feelings
44:31
come back of like
44:33
the desk queue, the Aldi desk queue,
44:35
yeah bitch that's how it felt. Like
44:38
going to Ralph's, going to Kroger is like
44:40
I'm risking my life and it was. And
44:43
they would let old people go in first at
44:45
like 6am, god that just feels like I have
44:47
to remind myself that it actually happened. And
44:51
we were in Los Angeles, I mean it was like
44:53
the worst of the world. We were still wearing
44:56
masks into early 2022 which is just
44:58
wild. Like
45:02
Los Angeles never really, it feels like the rest
45:04
of the world opened up, even New York would like open
45:06
and close and open and close. The
45:08
South was totally open like three months
45:10
into the pandemic, part of the
45:12
problem. But then Los Angeles was so strict
45:16
for so long but there was no
45:19
like adherence to it. You
45:22
know like it would be oh we're getting
45:24
rid of the masks, the masks are coming back. It's
45:26
like that's not fixing it. Whatever
45:28
I could rant about it. At
45:30
the end of this song he says, whoa
45:32
whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa keep your
45:35
distance. Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa that's
45:37
less than two fucking meters. Because you had to stand
45:39
two meters away from each other. Oh
45:41
I love him. Okay so my favorite,
45:45
I always do this, I have to give a 48 minute
45:48
precursor to why these are my three
45:50
favorite songs of the week. Fuck
45:53
me. Okay. Three
45:56
favorite songs of the week. Long
45:59
way off. actually it's gonna be six. Long
46:02
Way Off by Sam Fender. I
46:05
by Sam Fender. Call
46:08
Me Lover by Sam Fender. White
46:11
Privilege by Sam Fender. That
46:14
Sound by Sam Fender. Howd and
46:16
Aldi. Death Q by Sam Fender. Getting
46:19
Started by Sam Fender. Like
46:22
from both of the albums it's there's honestly
46:25
for me the only skips are like the really
46:27
slow sad ones because I'm just really not in the headspace
46:30
to listen to that right now. Okay.
46:33
I'm just really not. I'm really
46:35
not. And
46:38
then I didn't know because my friend
46:40
Cat got me into Sam Fender. Okay.
46:42
Now hear me when I say that.
46:44
Cat is like so plugged in to
46:46
like British music scene. She's she
46:49
loves that shit. She's always like we talk
46:51
music all the time. She
46:53
told me about Sam Fender like
46:57
two years a year and a half ago and I
46:59
was like yeah I'm not really into. I have you
47:01
know Arctic Monkeys 1975 like my sort of tumbler
47:06
era of British
47:09
pop rock alt indie rock. I'm good. I
47:11
like the wombats. You know I like that
47:14
sort of thing. She was
47:16
like no he said trust me and I was like whatever. Girl
47:19
it came on shuffle and I was like
47:21
no what have we here? And then I was
47:23
like holy shit this is that dude Cat told
47:26
me about. And so I've been of course obsessively,
47:30
obsessively listening
47:33
to him. Watching
47:35
all of his Reading and
47:37
Leeds performances. All of his
47:39
Glastonbury festival performances. He
47:42
did a you know how
47:44
BBC radio one does the
47:46
the live lounge covers where
47:48
like Harry did Wet Dream
47:50
and the Lizzo song and
47:52
when people
47:54
cover each other's songs he
47:56
did a cover of Break Up With Your
47:58
Girlfriend I'm Bored by R&R. Grande for a
48:00
small period. Second of all he did one
48:02
of Back to Black, Baby, Winehouse, period.
48:06
And he like Sam Fenders it up.
48:08
He like makes it sound like it's
48:10
his song, which is such a skill.
48:12
Like not only do you have a
48:14
skill in identifying and branding your own
48:16
sound, but to the point where you
48:18
can take someone else's body of work,
48:21
rearrange it, and make it sound
48:23
like your own song. That is
48:25
talent! That is
48:27
talent motherfucker! I love him! Hee-wee!
48:34
Get into Sam Fender Bitch because it's gonna, it's gonna be
48:36
a one, this is gonna be probably one of those
48:38
like constant
48:41
heavy hitters for me. I
48:44
hope he doesn't do anything that's gonna
48:46
make me upset. I
48:48
love him. There's
48:50
always a fear there of coming on record being like, I
48:52
love this person and then tomorrow he's
48:54
gonna do some stupid bullshit. And now
48:56
for the rest of time I'm in
48:59
my tombstone here like she
49:02
loved Sam Fender. Fuck! Oh!
49:06
I do think, and this is not the time to have
49:09
this discussion, but we really should
49:12
open up that wound of what
49:15
do you do when your favorite person lets you down?
49:17
Are you inherently tied to them
49:19
forever? Or can you still be
49:21
nostalgically uh sympathetic
49:24
to what that piece of art has done
49:26
for you in your life and be disconnected
49:28
from the artist? I feel like
49:31
that it's a constant, some people are like
49:33
he's a piece of shit, never talk about
49:35
him again, oh she still
49:37
supports da-da-da! And it's like, well I
49:39
didn't know he was doing all that girl! If
49:42
I would have known that you think I still would, you
49:44
know it's like there's no nuance in
49:46
these conversations and it's very hard
49:50
to be a fangirl nowadays, trust and believe.
49:52
You have to, I have to literally put
49:54
these people through a fucking background check to
49:56
make sure that it's okay to like them.
49:58
It's crazy. Anyway,
50:02
I've also been on my Dark Academia grind,
50:05
aside from Sam Fender. I've got
50:07
this, there's a playlist on Spotify
50:09
called Dark Academia. Dark
50:11
Academia, studying and reading. Get into that.
50:14
I've been putting this on while I read. This has been great. Alright
50:17
guys, I think that'll do it for me for
50:19
this episode. Oh, next time
50:22
I'll talk about Kingdom of Ash and, because
50:24
I finished, I finished the entire Throne of Glass
50:26
series. Wow. Wow, wow,
50:28
wow, wow, wow. Emotionally
50:33
void. Okay.
50:36
I sobbed so hard. I'll talk about it next episode.
50:39
And I guess people who are going
50:41
to read it or don't want spoilers can
50:43
skip ahead. Like they have the next episode. But
50:47
I want to talk about it, okay? Because
50:49
SJM, wow, period. Sarah J Maas.
50:52
What a universe builder. I'm about to
50:54
start, I want to start Crescent City. Because
50:57
that's the third installment in the
50:59
Sarah J Maas universe, like
51:01
the sort of concentrated universe. But
51:04
I kind of want to give myself a break from Sarah J Maas
51:06
because I went straight from Akatar into
51:08
Throne of Glass and I want to read
51:10
Fourth Wing. And I'm going
51:12
to read Fourth Wing and then the sequel just came out. So, and
51:14
that's what I've been waiting for is I wanted to read them
51:16
back to back. Then I'll go back to
51:18
