And I'm just like, you know, a writer, reader, enthusiast.

But, yeah, writer is pretty much the main thing.

Yes, yes.

We have the Flynn Effect, which I started a few months ago, and it's pretty much some current events, but a lot of history, secret history of pop.

We did one on...

the Secret History of the Wizard of Oz, the occult history with L. Frank Baum.

Yeah, fascinating.

Yeah, we did that.

I'm doing one right now on the similarity of the new left of the 1970s and the way that they kind of glommed on to John Lennon and the way that the new right kind of glommed on to Kanye West a few years ago, kind of comparing Groypers with the Yippies and Abbie Hoffman with Nick Fuentes.

There's a picture of Abbie Hoffman where he looks exactly like Nick Fuentes pointing directly at a camera.

that is eerie.

And so I'm doing a thing right now about how these countercultural or subculture things, they tend to repeat.

Well, it's the same thing in music, where people want certain kinds of figures, and they want certain kinds of things to identify with.

It's good you don't know him.

That's how you get out of the way.

Well, that's something one of my favorite writers, Eric Hopper, talked about where he's like, the people you know can almost cast you as something like they're a director, a casting director.

I love that you say casting because this is very, this is something I'm very interested in.

Well, that's just it.

So yeah, the way other people's perception of you can turn you into something because they want you to be that thing.

I mean, as a rock star, I was talking to my friend Jacob about this last night because he's worked as a Hollywood writer for a long time.
