I'm pro-medicine all the way. I'm just saying when it comes to acupuncture and cupping, those were just flawed ideas of ancient people making stuff up about energy flows and meridians. And again, no hate towards the ancients. They were doing the best they could with the information they had.

Individually, they're idiots, but collectively, they're a genius, you know, and I think that you have to respect the genius of your audience, right? Your audience is smarter than you. And so you have to be humble and you have to listen to the feedback you're getting.

Totally. Like, I think that, you know, I'm doing a new thing about first acts, how to write a good first act, how to get your story started off with as much sort of emotional rooting interest as possible, how to kick things off.

I'll just say I had a script that I wrote years and years ago and I sort of did three drafts and then it sort of petered out because I always knew the first act wasn't doing the work that it needed to do.

So I just put that script aside and then in the process of doing this video about... first acts, like I go, oh, now I know what's missing. And I went back and I rewrote the whole first act of that story. Now it works.
