Okay.

Yeah, that has not been disproven in my second recording.

Also, it just looked like a blanket.

It wasn't a cape.

Literally, with the help of a machine.

The other thing I wanted to say is that Courtney Grace is the name of the actress who plays the news anchor.

Who, the second time I saw it, I was equally blown away by.

And I think, you know, what's so interesting is that I guess the literalism of the movie was a flaw to me or sometimes a little too much.

But I, on rewatch, found...

Like the tapes, the creation of what is so powerful and upsetting and like involving not so much the reactions and what would happen in the world, but just, you know, what Steven Spielberg can do in terms of imagining and communicating, not just the possibility of aliens, but aliens.

How seeing the tapes would make you feel.

Yeah.

Well, we were talking on Friday's podcast about how our generation has not experienced any...

sort of communal moment of revelation, something that's like, okay, now we know this and the world has changed or now this is happening and we're all watching it at the same time.

And I realized afterwards that actually January 6th, most people, it went on for a while and most people did turn it on and you were kind of watching it in real time.

Like, is this happening?

And then as we have learned, there has been absolutely no change.

or unity about what happened or what we should do as a result of that.

And Aaron Sorkin's making a new movie about it, which, you know what?

I just did not know that Aaron Sorkin had bots like that.
