Oh, du kannst es wirklich sehen. Du kannst es völlig sehen.
Ich habe alle meine Freunde, die Kinder hatten, die Transitionen machten. Kinder, die in die Mittelschule gingen, als Covid-19 schlug, oder Kinder, die in die Hochschule gingen, sind alle ein bisschen gewechselt, weil ihre neue Erfahrung nicht das war, was sie glaubten, es wäre. Sie wurden nicht in die Sie hatten nicht die Zeit, die sie in den Vorjahren hatten.
Meine Großvaterin, von der ich in dem Buch geschrieben habe, war in der Schule und hatte den ganzen Plan, in D.C. zu gehen und konnte nicht alles machen. Wir werden die Auswirkungen auf diese Kinder für immer sehen.
Yeah, I think that like that's when they really dug it. It's so weird that you would think Trump wasn't the president as much as they've talked about, as much as they've talked about how how badly COVID was handled. You know, that was you, right? Right. You know, you did that. You know, the vaccine. Yeah. Yeah. And I think that like... And what...
No, it's about the fact that, and also, we as a culture have been through, not that we remember, but we've been through this before. It's not like this is the first time a pandemic has hit, but because we don't know our history, and we don't trust the history books, even if we read them, and because we love, for some reason, the coolest thing to be is somebody who knows nothing and asks questions.
Like, I don't know anything, but I still have questions. Also ich denke, dass die Frau die Stimme der Person so laut ist wie die Stimme der Expertin. Und diese Person wird immer lauter sein, weil... Ja, aber das Problem ist, ich weiß nichts, ich habe Fragen.
Oder jemand sagt, ich bin ein Arzt und das ist das, worüber du Fragen hast. Und hier sind alle Antworten. Und du sagst, aber wie würdest du das wissen? Ja. Who told you? Yeah, yeah. Why do you think you're smarter than me? Yeah, I mean, do you realize there's a rise in people sort of openly talking about how they don't believe the earth is round? Yeah.
It's like people feel more comfortable in talking about something like, well, how would you know? Confidently stupid. Confidently stupid. Yeah, and I think that because we sort of allowed this, we turned free speech into something that it's not. As a society, we feel like somehow it's limiting somebody's free speech to say, stop saying things that aren't true. Yeah, or that's wrong.
Yeah, what you said is wrong. And so we should turn your volume down because it's just wrong.
Well, that's the thing. Even if, but if you put the person, like, you know, this Flat Earth guy, Rogan had some Flat Earth guy on, was like, told Neil deGrasse Tyson, I want you to talk to him and debate him. And Neil deGrasse Tyson was like, no, I'm not doing that. Like, I'm Neil deGrasse Tyson. Yeah. Like, why would I, why would I waste my time? But somehow we, and then people go, he's afraid.
All right, well, I think we're doomed. Yeah. Yeah. Look at him.
He's afraid of like, life is only this long. Do you know that guy?
Yeah. I've met him a couple of times. He's not in my phone. Not in your world?
I have a very small world. He's not in there. I mean, you know.
You're just touring? I'm touring through the, like we're adding more dates. So I just actually added some southern dates in South Carolina, North Carolina. With the hope of like eventually figuring out. Charleston? Charleston, yeah, yeah, yeah. Got theater there? Yeah, the Charleston Music Hall. Yeah, I'm doing that.
I do okay in San Diego. I figured you would. I didn't even know I did. It was crazy. I'll let people in Charleston know you're coming. I have a hook up there.
We'll work on that. I'm going to actually invest some time into getting you some. You would do well with the blacks. I think so.
But the blacks in Charleston are cosmopolitan blacks.
No, you'd rather book a bigger venue in Atlanta and tell people in Alabama, you better drive.
And they're used to that. They're used to that.
