Арай, а гата так сезон Объекз.

We gotta talk about this road rage situation that came from.

A real thing that happened to you.

You were in a parking lot, you got into it with somebody, you started following them for quite a distance.

And my question about this, 'cause you tell this story often, especially during the first run of the first season.

What would you have done if that person had stopped?

Uh I I I I I probably would have just sped away.

I mean the the r uh uh uh uh to clarify, the only reason it was such a long um sort of uh

uh uh stalking, I let's call it, is because uh I was getting on the ten, uh one of the main highways in LA and it was bumper to bumper traffic.

And so what started very heated, then eventually you're just sort of it's not like the movies or or the show uh where you're chasing, you're just sort of like stuck and then like thirty minutes go by and then you're like, okay, I'm not that angry anymore.

And then you know, but then it was sort of fortuitous on that day

w we were both uh going to the same exit which was on the opposite side of town.

So I in my car I'm just I've lost interest.

I'm listening to music, you know, I'm just like kind of like in a better mood.

And I could tell that in his car he was like, this psychopath is following me across bumper to bumper traffic through all of LA.

And that is what fascinated me is that we're in our literal mechanical bubbles and s trapped in our own subjectivity.

completely unaware of what the other person is thinking or feeling.

There is something that you say almost in all of your interviews.

You talk about this um research that you read and I had to go digging for it and I actually found it and you were pretty accurate with it, but you have mentioned this uh

this uh scientific uh belief that our inner voices are formed by how our caregivers talk to us when we were small.
