Lies We Tell Our Kids - Still Untitled - The Adam Savage Project - 1_3_19

The Trailer for That Show and How It Made Me Feel Uplifted

I watched the trailer for that show, and I found it uplifting as it was intended. It's a well-cut trailer, and it looks like an enjoyable show. At first, I thought the show would do the classic American television thing of saying that you can fix your whole life by Thursday if you only have the right guidance and willpower. However, this wasn't what happened in the first episode. The show stretched out its timeline to a full month instead of just one week, which made me worried at first. But I continued watching to see how it would play out.

I was relieved that the show didn't follow the usual trope of making everything easy for the characters and resolving their problems within a short time frame. Instead, it showed real-life situations where things are more complicated, and progress is slower. This made me feel like the show was realistic and relatable. It also made me think about my own life and how I can apply some of the lessons from the show to my own situation.

The Trailer for Blade Runner 2049 and My Excitement

I've been watching trailers for Blade Runner 2049, and I'm really excited about it. The trailer looks amazing, and I love the visuals. It's clear that Denis Villeneuve has done an incredible job with the film. I also appreciate how the trailer doesn't give away too much of the plot, but instead focuses on creating a sense of mystery and intrigue.

The Trailer for American Life and Its Connection to My Childhood

I've been listening to podcasts while doing late-night feedings, and one podcast that I used to listen to was American Life. The host, Stephen Colbert, would often talk about his childhood and share stories about growing up in South Carolina. One of the episodes he talked about was how he would get his kids to sleep by driving them around in a car seat for hours at night. This made me laugh because it's so ridiculous.

I also remember listening to American Life when I was older, but I didn't realize that it was based on real-life stories until much later. The show has a way of making you feel like you're hearing about someone else's life, even though you know it's not entirely true. It's like they're sharing secrets and experiences that are relatable to everyone.

The Podcast Hackable and Its Connection to Cybersecurity

I've been listening to the podcast Hackable from McAfee, which is all about cybersecurity and how worried we should be about cybercrime. The host, Jeff Siskin, invites hackers to try and hack devices while he tries to protect them. It's like a game of cat and mouse, where the hacker is trying to find a way into the device, but the host is always one step ahead.

I was surprised by how much I learned about cybersecurity from listening to this podcast. It opened my eyes to the fact that cybercrime is more common than I thought, and it's not just limited to big corporations or governments. Anyone can be a victim of cybercrime if they're not careful enough. The podcast has made me realize how important it is to stay safe online and take steps to protect myself from hackers.

Watching Always Sunny with Larry

I've been watching the TV show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which is known for its dark humor and outrageous characters. The show follows a group of friends who run a bar together and get into all sorts of trouble. One of my favorite characters is Dennis, played by Glenn Howerton, who is often portrayed as selfish and arrogant.

I love how the show makes fun of itself and its characters, but at the same time, it's also surprisingly heartfelt and emotional. The actors do an amazing job of bringing their characters to life, and they've become so well-known and beloved that they're almost like real people. Watching the show is like hanging out with friends who are a little bit crazy, but ultimately lovable.

The New Year and My Resolutions

As we approach the new year, I'm feeling excited and optimistic about the future. I know that it's going to be a great year, and I'm looking forward to all the amazing things that are going to happen. I've been thinking about my resolutions for the new year, and I want to make sure that I stay focused and motivated.

I've always been someone who likes to set big goals for myself, but sometimes I find it hard to stick to them. This year, I'm determined to do things differently and focus on making progress instead of achieving perfection. I know that it's going to be a challenge, but I'm ready to take on the challenge and see what the new year brings.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwelcome to still entitled The Addams have a project I'm will I'm Adam and I'm normally very quiet beginning Happy New Year Happy Happy New Year mics are hotter so I didn't want to do my normal yellow and clip and then adjust so we're giving you MP our voices today norm new new dad yes I have been listening to his song then has been really affecting me this last few days okay so this song is by Brandi Carlile not Belinda Carlisle heaven is a place on earth no okay this Brandi Carlile as a singer and this song is called the mother and I first came into contact with this song over the summer I was doing a panel about environmentalism at what was the big festival that was happening in San Francisco outside Lance okay at outside lands they had a comedy tent and in that comedy tent they also had some serious political panels and I sat on one about climate change and one of the wonderful radicals in the in the panel with me sang this song as her final like send-off for the panel and it was really affecting and it's about a mom the lyrics are things like you know welcome to the end of the end alone inside your mind you're tethered to another and you're worried all the time mmm-hmm right now and then there's this part in the lyric that gets me every single time she says the outside of my windows are the mountains and the snow oh I hold you while you're sleeping and I wish that I could go all my rowdy friends are out accomplishing their dreams but I am the mother of Evangeline and then she feels they still have their morning papers and their coffee and their time and they still enjoy the evenings with the skeptics and the wine oh but all the wonders I have seen I will see a second time I have I will see a second time from inside of the ages of your eyes and it's like it's choking me up right now just a little bit and it is like such a it's a protest song about motherhood and about dedication and it's a beautiful song and about fighting the power and speaking truth to power and with my kids being 20 and now regularly dining with them and talking to them about their lives and their futures the older that your kids get the more you remember what it was like to be that age I mean it that that is the one thing that is striking me my daughter six now turned six this month and like it is it we've reached the period in her life that I can remember what it was like to be five right I remember going to kindergarten remember being scared walking in that door the first time I remember being excited about playing with this toy kitchen at kindergarten right and you remember your parents reactions to those things - not really oh no no no that's the funny thing like I I remember like I said my mom I note the morning after Christmas and I was like mom I you know I just I never really appreciated how hard you and Dad worked to make like Christmas a thing because like Gina and I looked up at the end of the night on the 25th and we're just like man I am I feel like I've been kicked in the head like four or five times a day cuz you know we were up all the night night before putting stuff together and and yeah like late and then making food and having people over in the whole it's a lot yeah and you don't realize that until you're doing it for somebody else and it's it's just it's a it's a it's it it has to be surreal to have humans that are spawned of you that you can have grown up conversations with especially for norm I mean you can't even imagine that now I can't imagine it but it's already surreal now to look at the face of my child and all babies kind of have the baby features they look like but like even at two months now to see some of the features developed that a reflection of yourself oh yeah and that is well and your dad he looks just like your dad yeah and to see that and it is very much like we spent New Year's Eve over at Will's place and wills holding my baby and there's a photo I have of the baby over Will's shoulder and you not it was a Benjamin Button moment where I was like this is will as old cate blanchett holding the I love me at the end of the movie so awesome which is the weirdest I'm glad you didn't share that in the moment normally we he's a sweet baby but we ended up not we were going so we were just on a long drive if you followed me on Twitter you saw a lot of pictures from it my wife and the dogs and thing too and I spent about two and a half weeks driving from here to San Jose sorry we took mission Street oh come you know all the way down we went to Santa Fe from here to LA to st. George to Winslow I took a picture on a corner so you would both train to San Jose and driven there Santa Fe or starts - yes yes the train to San Jose it was which one you recommend for oh I love taking the train but it was great driving with the dogs and sorry for New Year's Eve we ended up coming back here a little early Huxley's ACL was at excuse me Huxley's ACL was acting oh and we wanted to get him home a he got a little vigorous in Joshua Tree well you know who doesn't Roberts and and we were we were my wife and I were lying in bed and I was like you know I was thinking oh it's bedtime I'm gonna take off my glasses and go to sleep and I took off my glasses and she's like what time is it I'm like oh my god it's 11:58 let's go get a timer and figure out when midnight is and she's like or we could just listen yeah just totally right it's her just lying there in bed and we heard the sounds of New Year's hitting the Mission District which was really lots of fireworks but it was slow was like you start to hear the Platte fireworks and the gunshots and then I I was asleep by 12:05 it was a super super till New Year's we so this was the year my daughter asked to stay up preview this is the first year she's been aware that it's a thing it she was like can I stay up late and bring in the new year yeah sure about 1055 she was starting to fade and my wife looked over and she said hey you know it's almost midnight isn't it I said no it's like five til 11:00 cuz I'm nope but she was asleep she was totally zonk's as she completed me I was like oh no no it's five minutes so we went outside in the backyard started blowing the horns and stuff at eleven o'clock and and thankfully two people in my neighborhood that had must have had a similar situation because they rang in the Denver New Year at 11:00 p.m. was like you know I kind of expected there to be more fireworks and then she went right to sleep didn't nice so I was very good well done yeah good years later she'll listen to this and realize that you lied the lies I mean it's that's so if I have some advice for norm coming out of like there's a there's a bunch of lies that we tell our hey if you're a parent and you have kids in the car maybe pause the podcast now by yourself the lies that we tell our kids complicate both parents lives and the kids lives a lot right like there's there's the classic ones you know that we don't need to get into just in case people didn't heed my warning but then there's also stuff like the Elf on the Shelf I don't know if you guys know you probably don't have the Elf on the Shelf way after my test so the Elf on the Shelf you you had this elf and you can buy it at Target which makes the whole thing a little shady to begin with in my opinion but but people move it around and if it doesn't move it's because the kid's been bad or something I don't we don't we don't do it but like it's it's a thing that people do it's another one of the lies we tell our kids probably yeah podcast yeah um the switch which is the new one so you do this when you get like when your kid comes home with five pounds of candy on Halloween you'd like I want my kid to eat five pounds of candy so you let him eat like a pound of candy and then you trade the other four pounds for a toy of some kind if I were doing that over again instead of making up some character that's gonna come do this good thing for the child I would just say look we're will we'll exchange four pounds of candy for you at a very transactional nature it's much easier totally but now there's just another in me anyway yeah don't lie to your kid any more than you have to that's my that's my advice to you I hate that thing that happens today after Halloween where people post all these videos of telling their kids they've eaten all their candy and they watch them get really after that that's all the Kimmel thing yeah what what what what is entertaining about that there's no nothing as far as I'm concerned there's no entertaining about trolling your children what does everything now with a turning off their TV with fortnight oh right right right yes i trolled my kids once and it was a good prank because we were watching I think season four or five of American Idol oh yeah bought them take a I managed to get them tickets to the finale and I didn't tell them about it till we were not afraid of troll being really nice surprise what's what's alive you remember your parents telling you that you went in the moment that you remember the moment you my pissed like aside from the big things that everybody lies about my parents didn't really they were pretty I mean I'm sure that we had a dog that got hit by a car or something yeah no I don't think so either I did we didn't even believe in many of them well yeah I guess there was a little soft agreement to believe in Christmas lies yeah my parents so there were three of us they would make two things into three and we were just didn't didn't like like for if she does with chicken breasts kinda yeah they for example like a fish cheek okay the most the softest part of a fish its cheek and so my mom would pick out the fish cheek and give one to my brother pick out the other fish she can give one to me and then when other brother oh I found another fish cheek but it wasn't a fish to you know but if we were getting a fish cheeks and they were just eating the fish cheeks and then it wasn't until four or five years old there are only two cheeks maybe you got the butter a Sam this is the the kids version of the the fake calamari wait what you know that the the pig a pig anus what you know no this is this is that there's a whole run a most in New York Times story where they tested and the people are selling counterfeit calamari but it's really really interesting pig intestines oh I know and there's a big they did my Google Alert for pig anus must not have popped up that day yeah yeah it's a whole thing there's a counterfeit calamari and it's just like the sphincter awful raging inside baseball um this is the last time we're using these headphones okay this the problem of the left ear is this and that'll make you crazy oh yeah it's fine hey so we didn't get a chance to see many movies I still haven't seen spider-verse which I'm dying this is the best movie I saw last year that wasn't Paddington - super excited about that I did see that my son think too is an avid boulderer and rock climber who's is one of the reasons we stopped in Joshua Tree which by the way I the national parks are all open even though the government shut down which is got a bloody tragedy for the national park because you see the trash montage you know it's Jim when we were in Joshua Tree on a few days ago people were being incredibly respectful and it was not not out of hand at all it was very very it was being very well taken care of which it made me feel very good but thing - did some rock climbing up there and I supported him and did a little bit myself I didn't do any actually contractually not allowed to do extreme sports he was rock climbing an extreme sport if you have ropes with those listed on the formalizes and things you're not allowed to do yeah I'm good I can go to a climbing gym I'm out in a while you go to a bouldering gym yeah that's even safer is it well you're only ever I mean you're only ever a couple of feet above your crash pad and the one in the one over here you get like 1520 feet oh I haven't been to that what's good dog Pat's boulders is real fun at any rate yeah we watched at his insistence Meru em er you it's a Netflix it's a Netflix show and it's about these three world-class climbers climbing a heretofore unclimbed peak in the Himalayas 22,000 foot the problem with this is it it's like this 6,000 foot face where the last two and a half thousand feet is just a smooth granite shark fin Oh God in the snow what in this like in the cold in the cold yeah and so it's a it's a documentary about two different attempts at this client can't be 22,000 feet in it is an Everest 18 no adverse is 29 29 okay and so it was one attempt in 2008 and then another attempt much more recently which is what the film is about but they about half the film is 2008 attempt which is it's mind blowing in antecedent failure it's an incredible film well yeah so it's uh the filmmakers this is like the rehearsal because they made this released in 2015 then also released the movie free solo right so free Soler was shot by Jimmy chin and his wife and Maru is Jimmy chin not only filming this film but also being one of the three climbers to summit Meru because if you're gonna film it you gotta climb there's only three of them right so they're handing the camera back and forth they're living in this you know bivy on the side of a mountain that collapses at one point cuz part of it breaks when they're halfway up you know I can tell you right now I don't think I can watch this because I'm already stressed out just hearing about it dude it is so what these guys go through they run out of here's just one thing I'll tell you they on their first attempt they run out of food on day five and they're up there for another ten days time to eat what is it what is more intense cuz I haven't seen free solely and free solo is about I haven't seen free soul yet either but you and I watched we just checked before the blast we both watched that ten minutes in and his wife about filming it yes filming from the making of free solo that one is just free on New York Times our YouTube you can watch that highly recommended there's also the climber did a TED talk I believe this year and that's eleven minute old yes he did some time I think it was from this year that's on YouTube as well but that's a four hour climb without rope right what's more intense that that or the two-week-long it's turning from totally different realities the thing that I loved about that little Dachau about free solo was was the filmmakers openly discussing their own complicity in their friends demise because they're filming him doing the most dangerous thing that yeah yeah the doctor was called what if he falls it's super intense and I really appreciate that they made that part of the dialogue about the film and apparently it's discussed within the film itself because as Alex Honnold spent two years prepping for the climb and repeatedly climbing out cap and learning how he was gonna do it he came up with like oh here's a spot that's really really tough I don't want all the camera people are also top world-class climbers he's there all his friends yeah it's like I don't want my friends to watch me die I don't want to be thinking about my friends watching me dying so in this particular difficult part of the climb I needed to be remote cameras is that it the funny thing like he's let he's less afraid of death even though he's of death is something to be afraid of less afraid of death and then he is to die while his friends are why is he not Justin I'm not sure that's an accurate boiling gown I think it's more that he wants to be concerned only with the climb and on a difficult spot where he starts to realize my friends might watch me die his mind is not on the climb so it's not that one is more valuable to him than the other it's about maintaining a perfect concentration I think I think I haven't done I haven't cerisola no gap like like thinking about the kind of focus and concentration and intensity you would have to have to do something like this like I mean I I'm sure I'm not a I'm not a good climber but I'm sure that if you spend 10,000 hours climbing then you get to the point that climbing up the side of a normal mountain is is like walking down the street for one of us right yeah you just do it and then you like you said norm you know when you get to the hard part and you know you need to focus but I think that there's a level of complexity to this that that that doesn't account for in in that you know most of what we do is you know semi evolved primates doesn't involve putting your finger in the wrong place and then dying the stakes are not a hundred percent all the time yeah yeah so like I just I feel like like there's a a special kind of person that has to be a top level climber and then beyond that there's a substrate of a substrate of a skim off the top of a skim off the top of a skim off the top that is the kind of person who can free climb well so I do think there's a universality to unpack here to me which is and you know what I've talked about having played pool really seriously back in the day and I studied hustlers for a long time and read a lot of books about hustling and one of the things I learned is that a Hustler is not someone who's always gonna be better at pool than you they just know how to set the stakes to the point where you're thinking about the stakes and they're only thinking about the shot and it to me I think of that as a very universal attribute of excellence which is to say when you find the thing that you're really good at it's I think that you'll find specifically that the thing that stresses most people out about that thing is something that makes you calmer right like that's really funny because the same applies so like painting something we have a lot of friends who's like that they don't want to paint their toys because they're afraid the end result will look bad but when you're in the moment you're just caring about that one spot and you break it down it's all discrete or quantifying it all and the tiny tiny steps along the way and nothing but the end well and and if you want to if you if you want to look at I've seen film break a lot of excellent people because the stakes in film feel kind of crazy I mean it's a huge machine with 10,000 people people staring at you while you're trying to get your gag done and it's costing X number of dollars per minute and I just remember finding when I was 24 that that situation made me calmer rather than more stressing out we did some ad shoots a few years ago that like my detect that my company builds was the thing that everybody was relying on and at first in the time leading up to that I was very worried about how our stuff was gonna work yeah and then once we got there it just became about getting each shot and and getting getting the work done and doing what we could do to make it easier for everyone figuring out solutions and the flight but it wasn't I wasn't worried about the fact that was costing $30,000 an hour a minute or whatever whatever I spend was right so right what you're bringing up that I realize is it's basically about where you can achieve total focus so Honnold can achieve total focus in the most extreme circumstances that many people can picture and you called it excellence and in his TED talk he talks about the exact same thing but he calls it mastery right there the exactly same thing as he talks about how he climbed before did alt cap years before he did Half Dome and he wasn't satisfied with that because he felt like he got lucky with one of the holds it wasn't a mastering and so he actually didn't do free sewing he said for over a year after that because he didn't want to then fall into the trap of relying on getting lucky the preparation wrap was 2 years not because he didn't think he could do it but you want to do it in a way where he felt like he had mastery over the accomplish not just the mountain and it's not just his hands in his body but it's also he's fighting his dunning-kruger and those knows what he's not capable of here's a tweet from a couple weeks ago the first rule of dunning-kruger Club is that you don't know you're in Dunning hey everyone norm here before we continue on with the conversation I won't let you know that this episode of still entitled is made possible by the podcast hackable cyber crime has been all over the news and TV shows hackable an original podcast from McAfee answers the question how worried should I really be about cybercrime in each episode host Jeff Siskin invites a hacker the trying hack and device he's using think mr. robot in season 3 Jeff's trapped on a virtual reality headset puts his laptop password on the line investigates drones and more listen to hackable now on all major podcast platforms and thank them for sponsoring this week's episode now back to the conversation hey when is this gonna go up theirs give them today okay this was junior graduations junior premiered last night at 9:00 on discovery I'm sorry on Science Channel it's check your local listings it will air again this weekend so I don't get Science Channel as I discovered last night as a subscriber yeah but when I added it to my DVR and went to look for it last night at 10 o'clock I was like I'm gonna watch the show now it's gonna be on I think discovery on the fifth yeah so it was popped up for me even though it wasn't on last night and if you go to discovery.com/dirtyjobs here the real-time responses you know a lot of what we were afraid is that people would be like I used to like Mythbusters but I want to want to watch a kids show that'd show not a kids show and the press that I did the LA Times at USA Today and a bunch of other outlets really covered that Peter Howell Heartland Chronicle it's been very gratifying that the responses are coming back and people are really seeing that we made something that is both deeply part of the the culture of Mythbusters and also knew I'd been on set a couple times and I'd not seen the cut of the episode but what surprised me is that it it did two things with the idea of a kid like a junior show when I think about shows that feature kids like you know MasterChef or American Ninja Warrior it's like I feel like we can go in two directions one you can have kids are really impressive that then do things as an adult I am impressed by and then too you can have kids really live out of fantasy so the other kids can they are avatars otherwise for the aspirational wish fulfillment yeah I think this has both of that where they are clearly in fantasy camp Yeah right they're having time to live helicopter rides and like and they show that enthusiasm which is infectious but the same time they're also doing the work yeah and doing the driving and and doing really impressive things so that was really cool that it tapped into both of those just just you know when you ask people if they've ever taken a helicopter ride before even if they're not 15 most of them probably you're gonna say no it you know it was it was fascinating watching the both both you guys you kind of guided the kids a little bit it seemed like but then like they they knew they tackled the problems and knew what to do and and I love the division of labor I love that you have somebody who's really good at engineering math and somebody who's good at electronics stuff to build sensor packages and like it's it's it was so cool watching them work together and I would I would bet it was probably the first time they were presented with a group of people that are actually their peers in terms of what they're capable of across different fields for a lot of them you know if you're if you're from South Dakota there probably aren't a lot of kids that can operate at the same level as you that are you and yeah yeah I agree and it's been it's just been so exciting to see also my new myth-busting colleagues getting to cut loose on Twitter and share photos and videos from behind the scenes that they've been holding on to for six months my god and yeah I'm very excited it's a it's a really exciting year I completed I completed the very close to final draft of my book awesome over the holiday as well or you're on the road trip what yeah for Simon & Schuster it's called every tools a hammer okay I see what you did there this is coming out so it's it's half instructional half autobiography biography coal it's subtitled his life is what you make it and it's about my history of making the title every tools a hammer comes from one of my old ILM colleagues the sadly late mark buck was the best motorcyclist I ever knew he got killed on his motorcycle a few years back and tragically I believe at an intersection on 19th Avenue side beside blindsided but Mark used to say in every tool there is a hammer and it's to me one of the greatest Maker axioms that there is you can always use a tool for a purpose it was not intended in a pen and so that comes out on May 7th awesome I start production on the next show for science channel crazy on Monday Wow in four days so it's a very busy front half of 22 video so much free time sorry we may get a little we may get a little light on the one day builds over the next couple of months you talkative and we have a few pocketing and I we may have to do a couple of weekend day builds yeah no problem you know shift our schedule just a little bit cuz I got a couple things like I got a do yeah well you got to get ready for con season this summer you'll be clear by then right uh I don't believe I believe I'm not going to San Diego comic-con I think the next con I go to is new York in October yeah because of the 50th anniversary of the most of Apollo 11 I very well might be in DC over the actual days of San Diego comic-con Wow yeah so much in flux there is so much in flux holy hell how exciting is it to see the most distant object nASA has ever I turns out to be b8 they went within what 10,000 kilometers or something a movie of an object that is a thousand kilometers across going 50,000 kilometers an hour a minute a second writes again pull it with a GoPro on it to go film another bullet like about and you don't know how it's gonna go for nine hours after the event right oh my god and we won't get all the data for what I think they said two years is what is what it's coming in it's like 300 baud or whatever the speed of the Deep Space Network isn't that right yeah like the patience of people who are in charge of the JPL folks who drive robotic explorers is astounding to me and the Chinese landed the first yep ever on the Dark Side of the Moon which isn't really dark soft landing soft landing hurt soft landing yeah and they drove out the little rover guy amazing yeah so I just gendered the Rope Rover I apologize for that that was bad hilarious what did you guys aside from spider-verse any other media that you took it oh gosh um I saw Aquaman I always Aquaman it is worth seeing in the big screen really is a bombastic combination of every blockbuster it's come on the past ten years on a scale of the go for Wonder Woman to Man of Steel where does it fall I think it's more fun than Man of Steel not as good as one that's a fairly low bar I mean look Wonder Woman was pretty good man steel look Wonder Woman has a bad third act but up to that it's go away or the third act just like I ignore all the other Raiders films there's other Raiders films exactly you know I did watch it was interesting exercise i watch both the original I think nineteen for 60s 70s Murder on the Orient Express gooo oh yeah and the kenneth branagh one just as a point of comparison so the first one is Peter Ustinov Jenny Agutter Zinn then no no no no it's Lauren Bacall oh this is the black and white no no no its color its it's made in the seventies but isn't Peter you sort of Flay Cooper oh no albert finney a albert oh my god yeah and Alvin and Agatha Christie said the only criticism she had of that adaptation was that his mustache was not as glorious as she is imagine being the best writer but Kenda Branagh can compensate for that with the most glorious mustache pretty amazing it's an amazing mother how did they compare it was fun to see the adaptation the remake tighten up things a lot and Reese really culturally we like our films faster yeah and also read the mystery and put things and in movies and 70s were long yeah go watch the sting man yeah it's a it's it's it was a fast 70s movie - right right right but you know Ingrid Bergman you had Sean Connery's and in the 70s one and it's so it's really fun to see we've got to be coming up on the 40th anniversary of people bitching about them TV ization of film at this point right what was the what was the first we tried to watch Rock I tried to show my kids rocky and rocky like crawls along a lot of the then like a lot of even this I love this film rocky take Raging Bull I mean a lot of that's like they're great fantastic films but they're slow oh hey we got to the end of the Americans oh okay stick the landing I wanna see all I know is does it stick the landing um it's an interesting thing I can't say that it doesn't stick the landing but I think they left money on the table I there's a specific showdown between two of the characters who have been secretly in opposition the whole time and yet only one of them knew it and that showdown feels exactly right that right that that day Numa that that it feels terrific so um Breaking Bad situation no late ways but there's so many ways in which the series tied itself up that I thought left way too much unsaid they probably left themselves an opening for just like Breaking Bad I would watch a sequel to this show I would watch there's a lot about it that I would that I would jump into I've been obsessed with a youtube channel that I'm a patreon supporter of a numberphile oh yeah I've been watching those guys go and actually Matt Parker is coming to San Francisco and we're gonna we're gonna figure out something to shoot that's cool he hadn't seen the brick east of chrome video that I shall see sauce so I'm sitting there like my wife is watching me watch these videos I've got headphones on she's watching people do math diagrams and every now and then she hears me go and she's like are you like getting breathless about geometry and I'm like yes baby Netflix also has a new show about it's like they were version of hoarders it's called tidying up oh yeah watch the trailer for that the end it's really interesting I feel like you should get her in here Marika yeah I don't think you could do it I think I just as things might break her I wanna see who wins it's like a mob like the thing is is like that that positive take the the queer I'd meet hoarders where yeah the people change their lives right and I think it's less about like if you're happy with the organization you have clutter is not bad it's about appreciating the things that you have she's very into it seems like she's into venerating the objects that you love and and that's the thing that I think you can like it yeah she has ritualized the understanding that you get rid of things that you don't necessarily feel ready to get rid of and deeper behind that difficult thing to some people I'm yeah is is the understanding of your relationship with those things to a point and it's okay if like you go through the things and you actually don't want to get rid of things because you have deep connections with everything it's finding those connections again I watched the trailer for that and I found it uplifting as it was intended it's a well cut trailer and it looks like a enjoyable show I found myself worried that the show would do this classic American television thing of hey you can fix your whole life by Thursday if you only have the right guidance and willpower yeah which is just one of the most wait what just screwed up the first house they go to it's not like one week it's like a whole month oh really work okay yeah all right so they stretch it out so you watch one of the episodes I watched to the yeah did it make you want to tidy up your house it's just so much triggering things I like I just honestly I just want her reaction when she gets the front door I think we should break bad though you are cordially invited to the cave we've got to film it though we know the I think the EP Gail Gail Berman produced it oh really yeah holy cow my world should we cut to Gail um what's your what's your media diet like when you're doing late-night feedings and stuff norm what do you what are you watching with the would be sit up I just means I have noise canceling headphones in music now okay I did a lot of I did a lot of this American Life mm-hmm okay so one of the things that that when the kids are infants you can sometimes get them to sleep for long periods of time by putting them in the car seat and driving them around it and I yes and I used to do that for several months I did that every night between like 11:00 and 2:00 a.m. oh my god so that my wife could get some sleep and so I would just I would I would call a buddy of mine in New York who like never slept and we would just either chat for hours or I would listen to this American life well I remember talking to a dad who in his neighborhood he would pass other dad you would see there was there was one of their dad that would excited load up in the stroller cuz here it was cool enough it wasn't a problem warm enough it wasn't a problem right right and I would go on a late night walk like with the bear mace in case there were coyotes and we'd just be bopping around the neighborhood with the stroller and I you'd see there was one of their dad that was always out yeah it's not there's no longer the driveway moment for listening to no no no it's the stroller and whoop deep sleep moment I watch I watched the entire run of Always Sunny I think wow do I was doing like late-night feedings yeah yeah and Archer song is not appropriate viewing for children exactly was fine well happy new year happy new year I'm glad to put an end to 2018 that was an intense here and I hope that things are brighter this year I hope they feel brighter I hope they are bright things seem fingers crossed stay tuned for more awesome stuff we got a lot of stuff oh hey just before we started the podcast the the Blade Runner blimp now we've revealed it yes it just went all is it's now in my office at home and I'm gonna setting it up oh I finally watched mute the Duncan Jones the third third I think maybe of the moon right right right how is Lee it's neat it's it's not what I was expecting at all it's not as it's no it's it's I loved I love the visual design of the film I love that it was ever so loosely connected to moon I really liked Paul Rudd in it he's not what your typical Paul Rudd which I can see maybe turn people off yeah but yeah it was I think it is eminently worth watching and of course it's on Netflix so like fabulous I was I was I was I've still I'm thinking about it nice it's very thought-provoking oh very cool well send us suggestions we'll probably a spider of a spoiler cast at some point yes if you want to go see it again I'm down to go yo cool yes we'll talk about this offline yeah right all right you

podcast platforms and thank them for making this episode possible almost next weekwelcome to still entitled The Addams have a project I'm will I'm Adam and I'm normally very quiet beginning Happy New Year Happy Happy New Year mics are hotter so I didn't want to do my normal yellow and clip and then adjust so we're giving you MP our voices today norm new new dad yes I have been listening to his song then has been really affecting me this last few days okay so this song is by Brandi Carlile not Belinda Carlisle heaven is a place on earth no okay this Brandi Carlile as a singer and this song is called the mother and I first came into contact with this song over the summer I was doing a panel about environmentalism at what was the big festival that was happening in San Francisco outside Lance okay at outside lands they had a comedy tent and in that comedy tent they also had some serious political panels and I sat on one about climate change and one of the wonderful radicals in the in the panel with me sang this song as her final like send-off for the panel and it was really affecting and it's about a mom the lyrics are things like you know welcome to the end of the end alone inside your mind you're tethered to another and you're worried all the time mmm-hmm right now and then there's this part in the lyric that gets me every single time she says the outside of my windows are the mountains and the snow oh I hold you while you're sleeping and I wish that I could go all my rowdy friends are out accomplishing their dreams but I am the mother of Evangeline and then she feels they still have their morning papers and their coffee and their time and they still enjoy the evenings with the skeptics and the wine oh but all the wonders I have seen I will see a second time I have I will see a second time from inside of the ages of your eyes and it's like it's choking me up right now just a little bit and it is like such a it's a protest song about motherhood and about dedication and it's a beautiful song and about fighting the power and speaking truth to power and with my kids being 20 and now regularly dining with them and talking to them about their lives and their futures the older that your kids get the more you remember what it was like to be that age I mean it that that is the one thing that is striking me my daughter six now turned six this month and like it is it we've reached the period in her life that I can remember what it was like to be five right I remember going to kindergarten remember being scared walking in that door the first time I remember being excited about playing with this toy kitchen at kindergarten right and you remember your parents reactions to those things - not really oh no no no that's the funny thing like I I remember like I said my mom I note the morning after Christmas and I was like mom I you know I just I never really appreciated how hard you and Dad worked to make like Christmas a thing because like Gina and I looked up at the end of the night on the 25th and we're just like man I am I feel like I've been kicked in the head like four or five times a day cuz you know we were up all the night night before putting stuff together and and yeah like late and then making food and having people over in the whole it's a lot yeah and you don't realize that until you're doing it for somebody else and it's it's just it's a it's a it's it it has to be surreal to have humans that are spawned of you that you can have grown up conversations with especially for norm I mean you can't even imagine that now I can't imagine it but it's already surreal now to look at the face of my child and all babies kind of have the baby features they look like but like even at two months now to see some of the features developed that a reflection of yourself oh yeah and that is well and your dad he looks just like your dad yeah and to see that and it is very much like we spent New Year's Eve over at Will's place and wills holding my baby and there's a photo I have of the baby over Will's shoulder and you not it was a Benjamin Button moment where I was like this is will as old cate blanchett holding the I love me at the end of the movie so awesome which is the weirdest I'm glad you didn't share that in the moment normally we he's a sweet baby but we ended up not we were going so we were just on a long drive if you followed me on Twitter you saw a lot of pictures from it my wife and the dogs and thing too and I spent about two and a half weeks driving from here to San Jose sorry we took mission Street oh come you know all the way down we went to Santa Fe from here to LA to st. George to Winslow I took a picture on a corner so you would both train to San Jose and driven there Santa Fe or starts - yes yes the train to San Jose it was which one you recommend for oh I love taking the train but it was great driving with the dogs and sorry for New Year's Eve we ended up coming back here a little early Huxley's ACL was at excuse me Huxley's ACL was acting oh and we wanted to get him home a he got a little vigorous in Joshua Tree well you know who doesn't Roberts and and we were we were my wife and I were lying in bed and I was like you know I was thinking oh it's bedtime I'm gonna take off my glasses and go to sleep and I took off my glasses and she's like what time is it I'm like oh my god it's 11:58 let's go get a timer and figure out when midnight is and she's like or we could just listen yeah just totally right it's her just lying there in bed and we heard the sounds of New Year's hitting the Mission District which was really lots of fireworks but it was slow was like you start to hear the Platte fireworks and the gunshots and then I I was asleep by 12:05 it was a super super till New Year's we so this was the year my daughter asked to stay up preview this is the first year she's been aware that it's a thing it she was like can I stay up late and bring in the new year yeah sure about 1055 she was starting to fade and my wife looked over and she said hey you know it's almost midnight isn't it I said no it's like five til 11:00 cuz I'm nope but she was asleep she was totally zonk's as she completed me I was like oh no no it's five minutes so we went outside in the backyard started blowing the horns and stuff at eleven o'clock and and thankfully two people in my neighborhood that had must have had a similar situation because they rang in the Denver New Year at 11:00 p.m. was like you know I kind of expected there to be more fireworks and then she went right to sleep didn't nice so I was very good well done yeah good years later she'll listen to this and realize that you lied the lies I mean it's that's so if I have some advice for norm coming out of like there's a there's a bunch of lies that we tell our hey if you're a parent and you have kids in the car maybe pause the podcast now by yourself the lies that we tell our kids complicate both parents lives and the kids lives a lot right like there's there's the classic ones you know that we don't need to get into just in case people didn't heed my warning but then there's also stuff like the Elf on the Shelf I don't know if you guys know you probably don't have the Elf on the Shelf way after my test so the Elf on the Shelf you you had this elf and you can buy it at Target which makes the whole thing a little shady to begin with in my opinion but but people move it around and if it doesn't move it's because the kid's been bad or something I don't we don't we don't do it but like it's it's a thing that people do it's another one of the lies we tell our kids probably yeah podcast yeah um the switch which is the new one so you do this when you get like when your kid comes home with five pounds of candy on Halloween you'd like I want my kid to eat five pounds of candy so you let him eat like a pound of candy and then you trade the other four pounds for a toy of some kind if I were doing that over again instead of making up some character that's gonna come do this good thing for the child I would just say look we're will we'll exchange four pounds of candy for you at a very transactional nature it's much easier totally but now there's just another in me anyway yeah don't lie to your kid any more than you have to that's my that's my advice to you I hate that thing that happens today after Halloween where people post all these videos of telling their kids they've eaten all their candy and they watch them get really after that that's all the Kimmel thing yeah what what what what is entertaining about that there's no nothing as far as I'm concerned there's no entertaining about trolling your children what does everything now with a turning off their TV with fortnight oh right right right yes i trolled my kids once and it was a good prank because we were watching I think season four or five of American Idol oh yeah bought them take a I managed to get them tickets to the finale and I didn't tell them about it till we were not afraid of troll being really nice surprise what's what's alive you remember your parents telling you that you went in the moment that you remember the moment you my pissed like aside from the big things that everybody lies about my parents didn't really they were pretty I mean I'm sure that we had a dog that got hit by a car or something yeah no I don't think so either I did we didn't even believe in many of them well yeah I guess there was a little soft agreement to believe in Christmas lies yeah my parents so there were three of us they would make two things into three and we were just didn't didn't like like for if she does with chicken breasts kinda yeah they for example like a fish cheek okay the most the softest part of a fish its cheek and so my mom would pick out the fish cheek and give one to my brother pick out the other fish she can give one to me and then when other brother oh I found another fish cheek but it wasn't a fish to you know but if we were getting a fish cheeks and they were just eating the fish cheeks and then it wasn't until four or five years old there are only two cheeks maybe you got the butter a Sam this is the the kids version of the the fake calamari wait what you know that the the pig a pig anus what you know no this is this is that there's a whole run a most in New York Times story where they tested and the people are selling counterfeit calamari but it's really really interesting pig intestines oh I know and there's a big they did my Google Alert for pig anus must not have popped up that day yeah yeah it's a whole thing there's a counterfeit calamari and it's just like the sphincter awful raging inside baseball um this is the last time we're using these headphones okay this the problem of the left ear is this and that'll make you crazy oh yeah it's fine hey so we didn't get a chance to see many movies I still haven't seen spider-verse which I'm dying this is the best movie I saw last year that wasn't Paddington - super excited about that I did see that my son think too is an avid boulderer and rock climber who's is one of the reasons we stopped in Joshua Tree which by the way I the national parks are all open even though the government shut down which is got a bloody tragedy for the national park because you see the trash montage you know it's Jim when we were in Joshua Tree on a few days ago people were being incredibly respectful and it was not not out of hand at all it was very very it was being very well taken care of which it made me feel very good but thing - did some rock climbing up there and I supported him and did a little bit myself I didn't do any actually contractually not allowed to do extreme sports he was rock climbing an extreme sport if you have ropes with those listed on the formalizes and things you're not allowed to do yeah I'm good I can go to a climbing gym I'm out in a while you go to a bouldering gym yeah that's even safer is it well you're only ever I mean you're only ever a couple of feet above your crash pad and the one in the one over here you get like 1520 feet oh I haven't been to that what's good dog Pat's boulders is real fun at any rate yeah we watched at his insistence Meru em er you it's a Netflix it's a Netflix show and it's about these three world-class climbers climbing a heretofore unclimbed peak in the Himalayas 22,000 foot the problem with this is it it's like this 6,000 foot face where the last two and a half thousand feet is just a smooth granite shark fin Oh God in the snow what in this like in the cold in the cold yeah and so it's a it's a documentary about two different attempts at this client can't be 22,000 feet in it is an Everest 18 no adverse is 29 29 okay and so it was one attempt in 2008 and then another attempt much more recently which is what the film is about but they about half the film is 2008 attempt which is it's mind blowing in antecedent failure it's an incredible film well yeah so it's uh the filmmakers this is like the rehearsal because they made this released in 2015 then also released the movie free solo right so free Soler was shot by Jimmy chin and his wife and Maru is Jimmy chin not only filming this film but also being one of the three climbers to summit Meru because if you're gonna film it you gotta climb there's only three of them right so they're handing the camera back and forth they're living in this you know bivy on the side of a mountain that collapses at one point cuz part of it breaks when they're halfway up you know I can tell you right now I don't think I can watch this because I'm already stressed out just hearing about it dude it is so what these guys go through they run out of here's just one thing I'll tell you they on their first attempt they run out of food on day five and they're up there for another ten days time to eat what is it what is more intense cuz I haven't seen free solely and free solo is about I haven't seen free soul yet either but you and I watched we just checked before the blast we both watched that ten minutes in and his wife about filming it yes filming from the making of free solo that one is just free on New York Times our YouTube you can watch that highly recommended there's also the climber did a TED talk I believe this year and that's eleven minute old yes he did some time I think it was from this year that's on YouTube as well but that's a four hour climb without rope right what's more intense that that or the two-week-long it's turning from totally different realities the thing that I loved about that little Dachau about free solo was was the filmmakers openly discussing their own complicity in their friends demise because they're filming him doing the most dangerous thing that yeah yeah the doctor was called what if he falls it's super intense and I really appreciate that they made that part of the dialogue about the film and apparently it's discussed within the film itself because as Alex Honnold spent two years prepping for the climb and repeatedly climbing out cap and learning how he was gonna do it he came up with like oh here's a spot that's really really tough I don't want all the camera people are also top world-class climbers he's there all his friends yeah it's like I don't want my friends to watch me die I don't want to be thinking about my friends watching me dying so in this particular difficult part of the climb I needed to be remote cameras is that it the funny thing like he's let he's less afraid of death even though he's of death is something to be afraid of less afraid of death and then he is to die while his friends are why is he not Justin I'm not sure that's an accurate boiling gown I think it's more that he wants to be concerned only with the climb and on a difficult spot where he starts to realize my friends might watch me die his mind is not on the climb so it's not that one is more valuable to him than the other it's about maintaining a perfect concentration I think I think I haven't done I haven't cerisola no gap like like thinking about the kind of focus and concentration and intensity you would have to have to do something like this like I mean I I'm sure I'm not a I'm not a good climber but I'm sure that if you spend 10,000 hours climbing then you get to the point that climbing up the side of a normal mountain is is like walking down the street for one of us right yeah you just do it and then you like you said norm you know when you get to the hard part and you know you need to focus but I think that there's a level of complexity to this that that that doesn't account for in in that you know most of what we do is you know semi evolved primates doesn't involve putting your finger in the wrong place and then dying the stakes are not a hundred percent all the time yeah yeah so like I just I feel like like there's a a special kind of person that has to be a top level climber and then beyond that there's a substrate of a substrate of a skim off the top of a skim off the top of a skim off the top that is the kind of person who can free climb well so I do think there's a universality to unpack here to me which is and you know what I've talked about having played pool really seriously back in the day and I studied hustlers for a long time and read a lot of books about hustling and one of the things I learned is that a Hustler is not someone who's always gonna be better at pool than you they just know how to set the stakes to the point where you're thinking about the stakes and they're only thinking about the shot and it to me I think of that as a very universal attribute of excellence which is to say when you find the thing that you're really good at it's I think that you'll find specifically that the thing that stresses most people out about that thing is something that makes you calmer right like that's really funny because the same applies so like painting something we have a lot of friends who's like that they don't want to paint their toys because they're afraid the end result will look bad but when you're in the moment you're just caring about that one spot and you break it down it's all discrete or quantifying it all and the tiny tiny steps along the way and nothing but the end well and and if you want to if you if you want to look at I've seen film break a lot of excellent people because the stakes in film feel kind of crazy I mean it's a huge machine with 10,000 people people staring at you while you're trying to get your gag done and it's costing X number of dollars per minute and I just remember finding when I was 24 that that situation made me calmer rather than more stressing out we did some ad shoots a few years ago that like my detect that my company builds was the thing that everybody was relying on and at first in the time leading up to that I was very worried about how our stuff was gonna work yeah and then once we got there it just became about getting each shot and and getting getting the work done and doing what we could do to make it easier for everyone figuring out solutions and the flight but it wasn't I wasn't worried about the fact that was costing $30,000 an hour a minute or whatever whatever I spend was right so right what you're bringing up that I realize is it's basically about where you can achieve total focus so Honnold can achieve total focus in the most extreme circumstances that many people can picture and you called it excellence and in his TED talk he talks about the exact same thing but he calls it mastery right there the exactly same thing as he talks about how he climbed before did alt cap years before he did Half Dome and he wasn't satisfied with that because he felt like he got lucky with one of the holds it wasn't a mastering and so he actually didn't do free sewing he said for over a year after that because he didn't want to then fall into the trap of relying on getting lucky the preparation wrap was 2 years not because he didn't think he could do it but you want to do it in a way where he felt like he had mastery over the accomplish not just the mountain and it's not just his hands in his body but it's also he's fighting his dunning-kruger and those knows what he's not capable of here's a tweet from a couple weeks ago the first rule of dunning-kruger Club is that you don't know you're in Dunning hey everyone norm here before we continue on with the conversation I won't let you know that this episode of still entitled is made possible by the podcast hackable cyber crime has been all over the news and TV shows hackable an original podcast from McAfee answers the question how worried should I really be about cybercrime in each episode host Jeff Siskin invites a hacker the trying hack and device he's using think mr. robot in season 3 Jeff's trapped on a virtual reality headset puts his laptop password on the line investigates drones and more listen to hackable now on all major podcast platforms and thank them for sponsoring this week's episode now back to the conversation hey when is this gonna go up theirs give them today okay this was junior graduations junior premiered last night at 9:00 on discovery I'm sorry on Science Channel it's check your local listings it will air again this weekend so I don't get Science Channel as I discovered last night as a subscriber yeah but when I added it to my DVR and went to look for it last night at 10 o'clock I was like I'm gonna watch the show now it's gonna be on I think discovery on the fifth yeah so it was popped up for me even though it wasn't on last night and if you go to discovery.com/dirtyjobs here the real-time responses you know a lot of what we were afraid is that people would be like I used to like Mythbusters but I want to want to watch a kids show that'd show not a kids show and the press that I did the LA Times at USA Today and a bunch of other outlets really covered that Peter Howell Heartland Chronicle it's been very gratifying that the responses are coming back and people are really seeing that we made something that is both deeply part of the the culture of Mythbusters and also knew I'd been on set a couple times and I'd not seen the cut of the episode but what surprised me is that it it did two things with the idea of a kid like a junior show when I think about shows that feature kids like you know MasterChef or American Ninja Warrior it's like I feel like we can go in two directions one you can have kids are really impressive that then do things as an adult I am impressed by and then too you can have kids really live out of fantasy so the other kids can they are avatars otherwise for the aspirational wish fulfillment yeah I think this has both of that where they are clearly in fantasy camp Yeah right they're having time to live helicopter rides and like and they show that enthusiasm which is infectious but the same time they're also doing the work yeah and doing the driving and and doing really impressive things so that was really cool that it tapped into both of those just just you know when you ask people if they've ever taken a helicopter ride before even if they're not 15 most of them probably you're gonna say no it you know it was it was fascinating watching the both both you guys you kind of guided the kids a little bit it seemed like but then like they they knew they tackled the problems and knew what to do and and I love the division of labor I love that you have somebody who's really good at engineering math and somebody who's good at electronics stuff to build sensor packages and like it's it's it was so cool watching them work together and I would I would bet it was probably the first time they were presented with a group of people that are actually their peers in terms of what they're capable of across different fields for a lot of them you know if you're if you're from South Dakota there probably aren't a lot of kids that can operate at the same level as you that are you and yeah yeah I agree and it's been it's just been so exciting to see also my new myth-busting colleagues getting to cut loose on Twitter and share photos and videos from behind the scenes that they've been holding on to for six months my god and yeah I'm very excited it's a it's a really exciting year I completed I completed the very close to final draft of my book awesome over the holiday as well or you're on the road trip what yeah for Simon & Schuster it's called every tools a hammer okay I see what you did there this is coming out so it's it's half instructional half autobiography biography coal it's subtitled his life is what you make it and it's about my history of making the title every tools a hammer comes from one of my old ILM colleagues the sadly late mark buck was the best motorcyclist I ever knew he got killed on his motorcycle a few years back and tragically I believe at an intersection on 19th Avenue side beside blindsided but Mark used to say in every tool there is a hammer and it's to me one of the greatest Maker axioms that there is you can always use a tool for a purpose it was not intended in a pen and so that comes out on May 7th awesome I start production on the next show for science channel crazy on Monday Wow in four days so it's a very busy front half of 22 video so much free time sorry we may get a little we may get a little light on the one day builds over the next couple of months you talkative and we have a few pocketing and I we may have to do a couple of weekend day builds yeah no problem you know shift our schedule just a little bit cuz I got a couple things like I got a do yeah well you got to get ready for con season this summer you'll be clear by then right uh I don't believe I believe I'm not going to San Diego comic-con I think the next con I go to is new York in October yeah because of the 50th anniversary of the most of Apollo 11 I very well might be in DC over the actual days of San Diego comic-con Wow yeah so much in flux there is so much in flux holy hell how exciting is it to see the most distant object nASA has ever I turns out to be b8 they went within what 10,000 kilometers or something a movie of an object that is a thousand kilometers across going 50,000 kilometers an hour a minute a second writes again pull it with a GoPro on it to go film another bullet like about and you don't know how it's gonna go for nine hours after the event right oh my god and we won't get all the data for what I think they said two years is what is what it's coming in it's like 300 baud or whatever the speed of the Deep Space Network isn't that right yeah like the patience of people who are in charge of the JPL folks who drive robotic explorers is astounding to me and the Chinese landed the first yep ever on the Dark Side of the Moon which isn't really dark soft landing soft landing hurt soft landing yeah and they drove out the little rover guy amazing yeah so I just gendered the Rope Rover I apologize for that that was bad hilarious what did you guys aside from spider-verse any other media that you took it oh gosh um I saw Aquaman I always Aquaman it is worth seeing in the big screen really is a bombastic combination of every blockbuster it's come on the past ten years on a scale of the go for Wonder Woman to Man of Steel where does it fall I think it's more fun than Man of Steel not as good as one that's a fairly low bar I mean look Wonder Woman was pretty good man steel look Wonder Woman has a bad third act but up to that it's go away or the third act just like I ignore all the other Raiders films there's other Raiders films exactly you know I did watch it was interesting exercise i watch both the original I think nineteen for 60s 70s Murder on the Orient Express gooo oh yeah and the kenneth branagh one just as a point of comparison so the first one is Peter Ustinov Jenny Agutter Zinn then no no no no it's Lauren Bacall oh this is the black and white no no no its color its it's made in the seventies but isn't Peter you sort of Flay Cooper oh no albert finney a albert oh my god yeah and Alvin and Agatha Christie said the only criticism she had of that adaptation was that his mustache was not as glorious as she is imagine being the best writer but Kenda Branagh can compensate for that with the most glorious mustache pretty amazing it's an amazing mother how did they compare it was fun to see the adaptation the remake tighten up things a lot and Reese really culturally we like our films faster yeah and also read the mystery and put things and in movies and 70s were long yeah go watch the sting man yeah it's a it's it's it was a fast 70s movie - right right right but you know Ingrid Bergman you had Sean Connery's and in the 70s one and it's so it's really fun to see we've got to be coming up on the 40th anniversary of people bitching about them TV ization of film at this point right what was the what was the first we tried to watch Rock I tried to show my kids rocky and rocky like crawls along a lot of the then like a lot of even this I love this film rocky take Raging Bull I mean a lot of that's like they're great fantastic films but they're slow oh hey we got to the end of the Americans oh okay stick the landing I wanna see all I know is does it stick the landing um it's an interesting thing I can't say that it doesn't stick the landing but I think they left money on the table I there's a specific showdown between two of the characters who have been secretly in opposition the whole time and yet only one of them knew it and that showdown feels exactly right that right that that day Numa that that it feels terrific so um Breaking Bad situation no late ways but there's so many ways in which the series tied itself up that I thought left way too much unsaid they probably left themselves an opening for just like Breaking Bad I would watch a sequel to this show I would watch there's a lot about it that I would that I would jump into I've been obsessed with a youtube channel that I'm a patreon supporter of a numberphile oh yeah I've been watching those guys go and actually Matt Parker is coming to San Francisco and we're gonna we're gonna figure out something to shoot that's cool he hadn't seen the brick east of chrome video that I shall see sauce so I'm sitting there like my wife is watching me watch these videos I've got headphones on she's watching people do math diagrams and every now and then she hears me go and she's like are you like getting breathless about geometry and I'm like yes baby Netflix also has a new show about it's like they were version of hoarders it's called tidying up oh yeah watch the trailer for that the end it's really interesting I feel like you should get her in here Marika yeah I don't think you could do it I think I just as things might break her I wanna see who wins it's like a mob like the thing is is like that that positive take the the queer I'd meet hoarders where yeah the people change their lives right and I think it's less about like if you're happy with the organization you have clutter is not bad it's about appreciating the things that you have she's very into it seems like she's into venerating the objects that you love and and that's the thing that I think you can like it yeah she has ritualized the understanding that you get rid of things that you don't necessarily feel ready to get rid of and deeper behind that difficult thing to some people I'm yeah is is the understanding of your relationship with those things to a point and it's okay if like you go through the things and you actually don't want to get rid of things because you have deep connections with everything it's finding those connections again I watched the trailer for that and I found it uplifting as it was intended it's a well cut trailer and it looks like a enjoyable show I found myself worried that the show would do this classic American television thing of hey you can fix your whole life by Thursday if you only have the right guidance and willpower yeah which is just one of the most wait what just screwed up the first house they go to it's not like one week it's like a whole month oh really work okay yeah all right so they stretch it out so you watch one of the episodes I watched to the yeah did it make you want to tidy up your house it's just so much triggering things I like I just honestly I just want her reaction when she gets the front door I think we should break bad though you are cordially invited to the cave we've got to film it though we know the I think the EP Gail Gail Berman produced it oh really yeah holy cow my world should we cut to Gail um what's your what's your media diet like when you're doing late-night feedings and stuff norm what do you what are you watching with the would be sit up I just means I have noise canceling headphones in music now okay I did a lot of I did a lot of this American Life mm-hmm okay so one of the things that that when the kids are infants you can sometimes get them to sleep for long periods of time by putting them in the car seat and driving them around it and I yes and I used to do that for several months I did that every night between like 11:00 and 2:00 a.m. oh my god so that my wife could get some sleep and so I would just I would I would call a buddy of mine in New York who like never slept and we would just either chat for hours or I would listen to this American life well I remember talking to a dad who in his neighborhood he would pass other dad you would see there was there was one of their dad that would excited load up in the stroller cuz here it was cool enough it wasn't a problem warm enough it wasn't a problem right right and I would go on a late night walk like with the bear mace in case there were coyotes and we'd just be bopping around the neighborhood with the stroller and I you'd see there was one of their dad that was always out yeah it's not there's no longer the driveway moment for listening to no no no it's the stroller and whoop deep sleep moment I watch I watched the entire run of Always Sunny I think wow do I was doing like late-night feedings yeah yeah and Archer song is not appropriate viewing for children exactly was fine well happy new year happy new year I'm glad to put

got a lot of stuff oh hey just before we started the podcast the the Blade Runner blimp now we've revealed it yes it just went all is it's now in my office at home and I'm gonna setting it up oh I finally watched mute the Duncan Jones the third third I think maybe of the moon right right right how is Lee it's neat it's it's not what I was expecting at all it's not as it's no it's it's I loved I love the visual design of the film I love that it was ever so loosely connected to moon I really liked Paul Rudd in it he's not what your typical Paul Rudd which I can see maybe turn people off yeah but yeah it was I think it is eminently worth watching and of course it's on Netflix so like fabulous I was I was I was I've still I'm thinking about it nice it's very thought-provoking oh very cool
