(00:23):
Hey, hey, hey. Welcome back.
Hello all you saucy people. All right, how was everybody's
Father's Day? We are actually recording on
Father's Day because we ain't got no daddies to spend it with
so. Amen.
Sister, whatever. Yeah.
Anyways, I hope all of you guys out there, literally you men out

(00:45):
there, had a really good Father's Day.
If you guys are dads or step dads or bonus dads or granddad,
you know, whatever. Any kind of dad, I don't care.
Yeah, hope you had a good day. Me too.
I hope you were cool stuff. Yeah, some good food.
Always the good food. Oh yeah, BBQ hopefully, you
guys. All got some ice cream because I
know you fuckers love ice cream.I know, but men like,

(01:06):
notoriously love ice cream. Oh really?
I've yet to meet a dude who's not like dude, I will fuck up
some ice cream. Huh?
Like in a not healthy way. Here goes a whole carton,
basically. Yeah.
Pint. Yeah, Gallon.
Oh fuck. OK, now that's really getting

(01:26):
crazy. I mean, I don't know what these
fools are into the ice cream. Yeah, no, they'll totally eat
like a whole pint of ice cream in one sitting.
And I've actually even met a couple who would eat like 1/2
gallon in the city. And I'm like, what the fuck's
wrong with you? Do you not feel like you're just
going to vomit afterwards? I can't.
I can't do that, but that's justbecause it'll give me a brain
freeze. I can't even finish like a pint

(01:49):
in one sitting. A pint will last me like fuck
dude I don't know. I could probably eat on it for
like 2 months. I could eat on it until I need
to throw it away because it's got freezer burn.
Oh shit, did they come in smaller than a pint?
Because that's what I need. No, seriously, Ben and Jerry's
had like the cutest tiny little thing I.

(02:11):
Remember those? Yeah, where it was like 3
spoonfuls of ice cream maybe or two.
I was like, this is perfect. This is all I was selling
samples. Amazing.
It was great. Oh my God, I love that.
Well in that case, I hope you guys all did have all the ice
cream that your tummy is desired.

(02:32):
Oh, my goodness gracious. OK, so it's really nice out
today and I wanted to and, you know, I wanted to go do
something. I was like, OK, I went to this
nice little restaurant in town and sat outside and was kind of
working on podcast stuff, enjoying the weather.
And there was this family because there's a bunch of like

(02:54):
graduates out and it's Father's Day.
So they're like people out for Father's Day lunches and then
people out for like lunches withtheir grads and, and stuff like
that. Because the university here just
had their graduation today. And there was this table sitting
in front of me outside. And the guy, it was just so

(03:15):
skeevy. I fucking couldn't stand the way
he was like talking to. He had like somebody's parents,
I don't know if it was his or his wife's parents were there
and then his wife and then theirlittle girl and she was probably
like 6, but she's just having a good old time, being a regular 6
year old, being goofy, not sitting still, talking, fucking
with shit. You just.

(03:35):
Yeah, actually like a kid. What kids do, which I get it,
it's fucking obnoxious. Sometimes you just want them to
sit still and shut up. Sometimes fucking break, but he
was like talking to her and he was like look at me.
And she would look at him and then like kind of look around.
He's like I said look at me, look at me.
Do not not look at me. Like don't take your eyes off of

(03:56):
me. Do not not look at me.
And then it was like, when we goto this graduation, I want you
to sit still, be quiet, don't move, don't talk, and just be
quiet the whole time. Just thinking myself like, yeah,
good fucking luck with that. The children are meant to be
seen, not hard. So then it gets even better.
So the wife takes the daughter inside to the restaurant to go

(04:16):
to the bathroom. And the guy, he had already
paid. He tells the elder parents he's
like, I'm going to go get the car and I'll bring it around.
They're like yeah, OK. So he leaves.
He goes and gets a car. This fool.
OK, the restaurant I went to is on a one way St.
It's got 2 lanes but it's a one way St.

(04:36):
There is a open spot right next to the table where his family is
sitting. He, instead of parallel parking
in that spot, he stops in the fucking traffic, puts his
hazards on and just sits there and wait.
Wait Sir. Granted, his wife and daughter
aren't even back from the bathroom yet.

(04:56):
He just sits there. People are losing their fucking
mind. They're honking and blurring
their horns, revving engines, cussing.
Yeah, I would be mad too if I could see that there was an open
spot like like he parallel park bro.
Like, yeah, if I saw that I would be pissed.
I saw I was like, yeah, OK, don't fucking park in this spot.

(05:17):
Literally right here. Go ahead and just stop in the
street and stop traffic. I'm struck traffic.
Yeah, surprised no one called the cops on him.
Oh my gosh. So you can't do that.
So annoying and so his wife and daughter.
Titled. I know his wife and daughter
aren't even out of the restaurant, and his parents or
her parents, whatever, whoever'sparents are still sitting at the

(05:39):
table. They're so slow, So, so slow.
They haven't even stood up. And he's like, when the first
person honks at him, they honk and then somebody else honks.
And then he honks his horn. He rolls down the window and he
was like let's fucking go. Doesn't get out to like help the
elderly parents. The wife and daughter finally
come out and she's like gathering up the girls stuff and

(06:02):
he didn't. Even bother to grab any of his
kids stuff. Didn't get anything together,
nothing like didn't gather anything.
And so she's gathering up all this stuff and, you know, she
gets the daughter finally and she's like the, the dad needs
help with something. And so she's trying to help him
with something so that they can fucking go.
She gets a daughter, goes and puts her in the car, comes back

(06:23):
and he's like helping the mom get up and like, you know, and
then helps the dad get up. And then they're like walking
and she's like, you know, and he's honking the horn and
everybody's fucking losing theirshit in traffic because he's
just blocking traffic. Like an asshole.
Yeah, like an actual asshole. And he's not even helping to get
these elderly people up and moving or in the vehicle.

(06:45):
And then he's like, come on, let's fucking go.
Get your ass out and fucking help bro.
What the hell? And then the wife.
And then the wife turns around to the elderly people.
She's like, you guys get the fuck in the car, let's go.
I was like what is happening? Oh my God.

(07:05):
In the meantime, people, as soonas they have the opportunity,
are getting into the other lane and passing them, honking their
horns as they're passing them, 'cause everybody's rightfully
pissed off. Yeah.
And because I mean he blocked traffic, I could see all the way
down the street like he blocked traffic 2 1/2 blocks.
Oh my God, dude. Yeah, and so people are pissed

(07:27):
off and. I'm really surprised no one
called the cops on him. It was crazy.
So all of this, he was probably blocking traffic.
It wasn't super long, but traffic time, you know,
everything's long. But yeah, it's like he was
probably there for, I don't know, 4 minutes.
That's a long time traffic wise,Yeah, yeah.

(07:47):
Think of it as like sitting at alight.
You're sitting there for 4 minutes and you're like, what
the fuck is with this light? Why won't it change?
And just because an entitled Dick.
The waitress came out and was looking at the people at the
table looking at the car like what?
And I me and her made eye contact and we were both like
what the fuck Anyways so I was like be gross you.

(08:10):
Yeah, yeah, but what? I don't know.
Whoever you are, guy, go fuck yourself.
Yeah, just. It was just so inconsiderate.
Yeah. It's not like there wasn't a
parking spot. I could understand if there
wasn't a parking spot. And you're trying to make it
easier for the elderly people tolet you know so they're not
having to walk far. But literally a parking spot in
front of the table and you stopped next to the spot instead

(08:33):
of backing into it, you just stopped in front of it like.
Does he not know how to parallelpark?
Did he know when to embarrass himself?
I don't know, I mean, it was a new new enough vehicle.
I it had to have had like a backup camera even if that was
the case. But yeah, who fucking knows.
But I just like that is so rude.Anyways, Yeah.
But other than that, it was really nice to just like be out.

(08:55):
People had their dogs and all their dogs were all nice and
sweet and people were petting them as they're walking by.
Oh, that's the best. And I saw a bunch of really cool
classic cars. An old car is coming by, which
happens when the. Sun comes out favorite.
We saw Gavin and I just yesterday saw this classic
truck. Mom would have loved it.

(09:17):
Oh fucking pristine and nice deep green, but like not too
dark. It was still bright.
Oh, it was gorgeous. I had like, oh that really well
done, like wooden tailgate on itand they had the chains.
Nice. Which means that the the the bed
was also probably wood too. It was fucking gorgeous and it

(09:40):
sounded gorgeous. Oh, it was so nice.
I always. Loved this time of year.
Yeah, 'cause everybody brings out their classic cars and
they're just looking so fucking sexy.
I love it. Oh yeah, I even saw this really
nice red Stingray Corvette. Couldn't tell you the year, but
man, gorgeous. There is kind of an old school

(10:02):
drive in restaurant in Springfield.
What? Yeah, they have all the old
cars. They all go there.
Like I think it's every Sunday or Saturday.
They all go there. The entire parking lot is filled
up and all the people just sit there bullshitting, eating their
malt shakes and. I'm going to have whatever,
figure out where this place is, 'cause I want to go.

(10:24):
It's Finn's drive in. I had a feeling, yeah, it's been
driving, yeah. Oh, they got good malts too.
I've I've been there. Good.
Yeah. But it's so cool because if you
know the day that they're doing it and usually, even if you go
by any day, they'll usually havelike a flyer in the window and
it'll like, you know, old car show or whatever, you know, And
it's not necessarily like a car show.

(10:46):
They just like a meet and greet.Yeah, they.
All just like hang out there forlike the whole fucking day,
basically. What else they got going on, you
know, And then, you know, you'llsee them driving around all
together. So usually if you see one,
you're going to see, you know, atrail of them.
But yeah. Love.
This time of year for that man. So we had a very busy weekend.

(11:06):
Y'all fun, but busy. Busy.
Yeah, We, we drove N went up to Washington to go to our nephew.
But like our cousin's son's graduation.
So we had Sydney's graduation last Friday and then his
graduation this last Friday. And then Sydney had her showcase
yesterday. But yeah, it was like going up

(11:27):
to Washington Friday, then coming back Saturday, then going
to. Show I'm tired man, there's a
lot and traffic going up there my God shoot me in the.
Fucking face that was horrendous.
I've only ever experienced traffic that bad once before
going that way and that was likeover a decade ago and it was due
to like a major car pileup. There was no reason for this,

(11:49):
there was no accidents. No it was just people driving.
Fucking stupid. I don't even know what the deal
was, honestly. It was.
It was absolutely asinine, and it was.
Dude it was from the. Drive is like a three and a half
hour drive. It's a 3 hour drive on the
Interstate and then 1/2 hour offthe Interstate.
That three hour drive I think took us, it was at least five

(12:10):
hours. Five hours, yeah, if not 5 1/2,
Yeah, it was fucking insane. Like we left in time if traffic
wouldn't have been this way, where we would have gotten to
our destination a few hours before the graduation and time
to like hang out with family andbullshit and whatever.
No no no no no thanks for traffic.
We got there a few minutes aftergraduation was supposed to

(12:33):
start. Like we were hustling to get to
our seats and we still fucking missed the procession.
The processional there was. There were five of us that were
late and then one lady and her kid and we were all trying to
figure out how to get into the the gym because our.
Nephew fucking confused us. The door we were going to go
into, who's like, not that door,It's all the way over.

(12:55):
It's all the way day. Over.
It was the next set of doors over.
It was a shit bro, you fucked usup.
Like we would have at least beenin there a time.
We didn't even get to see him walk.
That's fine. We came in when during his his
speech, he was class president, which was pretty cool.
That was really cool. I will say we were me, you and
Piper. We're all kind of fucking losing

(13:16):
our shit over the comparison between Sydney's graduation and
his graduation. Oh, his, his class size was like
1313. Yeah, yeah, it was Tiny man 13
students was his class. I wish they were all all
graduation class fast. These class size was like over
300. Yeah, that was terrible.

(13:38):
It was fucking crazy. So Sydney's graduation was 3 1/2
hours. His graduation was an hour and a
half. It was perfect it.
Was so more personal though. Oh my God, they had like a
slideshow where they did a slideshow of all 13 kids from
kindergarten to 12th grade. Yeah, because this town is.
It's not even a town, it's technically a.
Village, Technically, yeah, it doesn't meet the the population

(14:01):
requirements for a town. But when they started handing
out diplomas, the first like 6 or 7 kids, yeah, people would
clap and everything. And then it was just silence as
they were walking to the back ofthe line and stuff.
Yeah. And then very just not no
excitement, no, so little enthusiasm.

(14:22):
It was very underwhelming. It really was kind of sad I was.
Like fuck they just graduated high school y'all like are you?
Act like you're proud. What the fuck?
So when our our family member, our nephew, however you want to
refer to him, came up, our family lost our shit.
We were so. Fucking We were like yelling and
hooting and hollering and whistling and popping like we

(14:44):
didn't stop. We didn't fucking stop until he
was back to his spot and. During the picture and
everything. Like we were losing our shit and
then. And everyone else for the
remaining kids started to actually do that, too.
Yeah. Yeah.
I was like, this is what it means to be proud.
Like show for your your kid. I know when the next kid got
called and everybody started actually like getting excited, I

(15:05):
was like, there you go, people. And like out loud.
I literally said that out loud. I'm like, there you go, people.
Now you're getting it. Yeah, I feel bad for those first
few kids, Like, oh, it was. Like crickets.
You guys got like a really pathetic piper and then that was
it. Oh my God.
Piper just kept doing these really soft little.
Yeah, 'cause she was like, stop trying to.
Fill in the silence. Because this is what would

(15:25):
happen. Their name would get called.
They'd walk like the four feet to the table where they'd like
get their diploma, shake somebody's hand, and then walk
to the center of the stage, which is like probably 8 feet,
get their picture taken, and then circle back to their seat.
OK. From the moment that somebody's
name was called until they got to where they were getting their
picture, people had applauded and it had died out.

(15:47):
That was sad man, let me tell y'all.
It was pathetic. Yeah.
In a matter like people clapped for like 30 seconds maybe.
It was crazy. And me and Piper were clapping
for a long time. Then I finally gave up and Piper
was still kind of clapping and. She's such a sweet girl, yeah.
She was like, I just feel so badfor them.
Like this is really awkward. This is like such a because then
the whole like the gymnasium wasjust fucking silent.

(16:10):
It was you couldn't hear people like creaking in their sleep not
thin. You could have heard a pin drop.
Even the children, the tiny children that were there were
silent. Man cannot express enough how
quiet in there it was. So the the stark difference
between all of that and then. Our family, yeah.

(16:30):
Wow, yeah, our nephew said afterwards.
He goes, one of my friends were like, hey, who?
Who were all those people cheering when you got up?
He was like, Oh yeah, that was my family.
Yeah, we we make noise, man. We're fucking trendsetters too,
because like you said, after that everybody started getting a

(16:52):
lot more fucking wild for their graduate.
We're a lively bunch. Yeah.
Proudly. Like, good grief.
Yeah. No, we don't.
We don't come in quietly and we don't go out.
Quietly. No, I love it.
Our stepdad was even there. He on the way before Gavin and I
left the house and he was like, yeah, I'm just going to find a
shirt and then I'll just walk over there.
Probably not going to stay the whole time.

(17:12):
And then he stayed the entire time.
Well, he was probably thinking it was going to be long, like
Piper's, because he went to Piper's graduation.
Yeah, he was probably assuming it was going to be long.
And then it was like, oh, actually this is getting pretty
close to being over. Might as well just.
Stay the thing that was crazy tome though with this graduation
because Sydney's graduation is like what most of you probably

(17:32):
remember for your graduation whowent to like a school in the
city, right? Like it was.
Pretty. It was anything outside of a
village, yeah. But this one, it was like
because it was so small, like the graduates all came down and
gave roses to people in the audience that influenced them,
help them, encourage them, whatever.
So that was super sweet. They had a fucking, I swear to

(17:54):
God. It felt like 30 minutes, but it
was probably like a 20 minute slideshow of all their pictures
from kindergarten to. To They were all so cute.
And then after all that, they did this thing that I'm sure the
Village people literally thoughtwas really cool and a proud
moment, but it was so gringy. It's so depressing to me.

(18:16):
Yeah. They did this thing where God.
It's apparent. Rubbing my fucking eyes.
They basically were like. Weird noise that just came out
of me, I'm sorry. They did the history of all the
graduates. So any of those, those graduated
students, those 13 students, anyof their family who had

(18:38):
graduated from that school, theycalled them out and had them all
stand. So they're like so and so class
of 1954, so and so class of 1963.
So it's a class of the, you know, and they did that for each
student, which our nephew had none because we are not
generational in that town, thankGod.
But there was one family who hadthree graduates and like a whole

(19:01):
bunch of people there and, and people were just like clapping
and all happy about it. And I was like, this is so
fucking depressing and like yourfamily has been here for that
many generations, never left in this fucking village like you.
Guys, this is probably the biggest it's been.
Yeah. You think about it for real.
Like they have like a gas station.

(19:23):
They have one traffic light, half of it is flashing yellow
and the other flashes red. It's so small.
The grocery store is more like what we would consider like,
like a mini, Yeah, like a mini Mart convenience store.
It has a little bit of everything.
It's also their liquor store and.
One pub I think, I don't think there's a mechanic shop coffee

(19:44):
stand. They do.
They have a coffee stand in one restaurant and Kathy.
You can't. Stay.
In both of them. Are well, the restaurant really
sucks. They did have another restaurant
there for a while. And that everyone misses them.
We went to breakfast after on Saturday morning and we're like,
oh we're going to go eat breakfast.

(20:05):
Hopefully it's not busy. And our stepdad looked at why.
The fuck would it be? Busy.
Yeah, it was the He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were
squinting. He was like, do you think it's
going to be busy? I was like, well, I don't know,
you know, with the graduation and everything, get there.
There was one table and then in that side room that they have,
there was a little table in there and we're like, oh, right.

(20:31):
I messaged them. It wasn't busy like, yeah, I
know. Right, I could have fucking told
you that. And we went, we ate there.
And after we were on our way back, I was like, you know, I
don't know why we keep going there.
No, for the convenience. Like I keep thinking like, oh,
maybe it's gonna be okay, but it's not even okay.
Like, it's so underwhelming. You guys, they fucking if you

(20:51):
get a salad they still with goldfish crackers sprinkled on
top. Yeah, instead of croutons.
It's fucking terrible. The biscuits and gravy.
Such a simple fucking thing to make.
The gravy was broken. If you guys don't know what that
means, if it had too high of a heat for too long and it started
to separate, Yeah, yeah. It was just I'm like, man, it's

(21:12):
just disappointing every single time.
If you get something that's super basic like hash Browns,
eggs, sausage, then yeah, it's fine.
Anything. Else, man, it's terrible.
And and somehow it takes them forever still.
Even when you're the only personin the restaurant, it still
takes them a long time to make the food.
Yeah, I don't know. I stopped eating there because I
started getting sick after I ateit.

(21:34):
I'm like, yeah, no, I'll, I'll go hungry.
I'll wait till we get into town to eat.
I know. It's it's terrible.
That's what me and Piper did too.
We're like, we're not eating here.
She's like, yeah, no, we're not eating here.
No, I had we had until we got tobeing.
I think we were just desperate since we just had that pizza
that we. Shared with people.
Anyways, yeah, this fucking townis just really fucking tiny
y'all and it's crazy. And then we were joking.

(21:57):
Piper's like, because I was like, wait, these people didn't
like none of the families have left and moved away.
And then Piper's like, well, they might have.
And then, you know, came back and I was like, missed it.
And I was like, why? It is, I tell Sabara.
That is you're asking. Her, it's not the other way
around. You know, I'm just like, why
would they come back here? And then I tell Sabara what me

(22:20):
and Piper talking about and Sabara goes like they came back
under duress. I forgot I said that.
Just like, why the fuck else would you come here?
Oh my God, it was so great. The only reason we even go to
that God forsaken place is because we have some family
there. Like oh, and usually when I'm
there I can't handle it very, very long.

(22:40):
And then I'm like, OK, I need leave.
It's pretty boring. There's literally nothing,
nothing to do. No, I feel bad for the youth I.
Can go walk the cemetery. I guess I do do that almost
every time I go up there. Yeah, I mean, it is cool.
The cemetery is cool. Some pretty old shit in there.
I feel like it's a respectful thing, kind of like not letting
their memory totally fade, you know, just reading their name

(23:03):
like it does something spiritually or for you could.
Walk like the border of this village in less than an hour.
Easily. Yeah, I've done it several
times. Well, there you go.
There you have it. It's pretty easy.
But yeah, it's just crazy. It is crazy.
Anyways, Yeah, not to just diss on that, but that.
Was did we already talk about the burlesque show?
We did talk about it when we didour kink fetish, right?

(23:27):
OK, yeah, time is a blur. I have no concept of it.
My perception's skewed. But bringing it up is great
because that's actually what ourtopic is about today.
Not the burlesque show that we went to, but burlesque.
In general. In general, yeah.
The history of burlesque, yeah. So I hope you guys are one to
find some shit out 'cause you're, you're about to, you're

(23:47):
gonna learn. Yeah, about to learn.
Hope you all wanted to know about burlesque.
Jake, Lace up your fucking Victorian boots.
Yeah, put on your hats. I love it.
Did they wear bowler hats back then or were they top hats?
I think it was like top hats back then.
The period you're talking. Yeah, yeah.
Don your Don your top hats and lace your your knee highs.

(24:08):
We're going on a ride. Lace your knee highs.
Bring the carriage round. Or did they ring a little bell?
I don't know. How wealthy are you?
Honestly not. Yeah, still be amongst amongst
the peasant folk throwing my shit and piss out my fucking

(24:29):
window. So girls, OK, let's not, let's
not, OK, just trying to, you know, get the picture, get
people really immersed. Yeah, for the time period.
OK, well I just want to start and just say so the word
burlesque is actually derived from the Italian word burlesque,
which is derived from the other Italian word burla which.

(24:51):
Means a joke, ridicule or mockery.
So burlesque is literally a mockery, though.
You're making a burlesque of theshow.
Yeah, exactly. That's cool.
I didn't know that. Yeah.
And so burlesque is an exotic style of dance that it draws on,
like, theatrical and comedic performance elements.

(25:11):
It was first introduced in the 1860s.
It took off in America from fromEngland and then, you know, kind
of went from there. But I'm gonna let Samara.
Dive in and give us the the history of burlesque.
We're going to cross the Atlantic.
Yeah. Set sail on that Titanic ship.
We're we're going to go down in history.
I mean, back in history. My bad.

(25:35):
So everybody burlesque. Everybody in the club getting
tipsy, yeah. Exactly what did they have for
clubs back then? Did they have clubs or were they
all just? I think they had parlors.
What am I thinking of? I'm I'm thinking brothels

(25:57):
getting turnt in the brothel. Oh boy.
Oh, brothels would be fun to cover too.
They would be fun, yeah. Any Hooser.
So you're Minnesota now. Annie Hooser.
Annie Hooser. Nazuna Boot.

(26:19):
Fuck man, derailed so easily. I have an attention span of a
fucking squirrel. Just too many thoughts at once.
All right? For real this time.
Done faking you out. Burlesque is not only a historic
art form like Nikki said, it's also a unique dance genre.
And there's multiple offshoots of burlesque.
Two of the most well known are the Victorian and American.

(26:43):
This is Victorian. Of the two.
Victorian is not as gaudy or provocative, at least by today's
standards, whereas the American offshoot is Victorian burlesque.
It became popularized in the 1800s, or like in the late
1800s, and it's also the origin of all modern burlesque as we

(27:04):
now know it to be. Victorian burlesque was rowdy,
extravagant body, or, you know, humorously coarse form of
musical theater, almost like a variety show of the times.
The performances often picked onpeople of the upper class making
fun of their sometimes snobby behavior, which I love.

(27:28):
That, and it's what you get for being wealthy.
I've seen you say that and I'm thinking of like different
scenes and movies that I've seenwhere you have people like kind
of acting and people coming out with like real big fake dildos
attached their costumes and women with their tits out and
they're basically mimicking kings and Queens or people in
power and stuff. Like that's what I.
They have masks with the the oversized nose so they can

(27:50):
literally turn their nose up acting Snooty.
Yeah, exactly. That's what I think of when you
say. Richer than thou, Yeah.
So the performances would cover popular topics of the time, like
Shakespeare or pieces from the grand opera, but with A twist of
satire. These shows quickly became known

(28:10):
as extravaganzas or travesties, the two types of travesty.
Hand on the forehead, faint. So burlesque was intentionally
ridiculous in that it imitated several styles and combined
imitations of certain authors and artists with absurd
descriptions. In this the term was often used

(28:32):
interchangeably with parody. In the 17th and 18th century
genre of the mock heroic, burlesque depended on the
readers or the listeners knowledge of the subject to make
its intended effect In a high degree of literacy was often
taken for granted. Since, you know, common folk
didn't typically have much in the way of education, so some of

(28:56):
those literary topics or elements were lost in the crowd,
but the entertainment aspect remained and prevailed
ultimately. Exactly.
Exactly. It's kind of like, you know,
it's like everybody says, like Disney movies, you know, we're
kids that just kind of went overtheir head, and I'm thankful for
that. You're like, yeah, that was
definitely intended for the parents.

(29:16):
Kids aren't going to get it, butother people are going to get it
the older. Exactly.
Yeah. Yeah, so it's like that only,
you know, oh, might have gone over the heads of the people who
are illiterate, but all the non illiterate, we'll get it like a
double negative. I'm not not upset.

(29:36):
Yeah, we, we all tracked. I'm going to speak for the
audience. We all tracked.
So there were actually differentsubtypes of burlesque. 17th and
18th century burlesque was divided into two types I
Burlesque, which refers to burlesque imitation where a
literary or elevated manner was applied to a commonplace or

(29:59):
comically inappropriate subject matter, As for example, in the
literary I can talk parody and the mock heroic.
One of the most commonly cited examples of high burlesque is
Alexander Pope's sly knowing in courtly the rape of the lock.
Now I I know the title sounds pretty intense, but doth not

(30:22):
worry as it's not. The poem's title does not refer
to the extreme of sexual rape, but to an earlier definition of
the word that's derived from theLatin rub here to snatch, to
grab, or to carry off. In this case, it's just the
theft and carrying away of a block of hair.

(30:42):
OK. Yeah, literally just dealing
someone's lock of hair. Wow.
Hey, that was a mic stand, not me.
Oh I really thought you just ripped ass.
Mic stand. Neptune No, save the kitten.
As we all know, every high has alow.
Even in this case, the other subtype is low burlesque,

(31:06):
applied to irreverent mocking style to a serious subject.
An example is Samuel Butler's poem Huda Bra, which describes
the. Huda bra.
Huda Bra. Who's a bra?
You was a bra. I need a bra.
I'm not wearing a bra bra. I'm not wearing a bra bra.
Which described the misadventures of a Puritan

(31:28):
knight in satirical doggerel verse, which is just a an
irregular rhythm poem making hischaracters.
Plain goofy. Plain goofy.
Goofy. Which if you know anything about
Puritans, they are anything but.Goofy or funny?
Very stoic. Well, and what's funny too about
this is that you think of what life was like in these times and

(31:52):
the people who would come see these shows when they would
perform them on on the street and stuff like that.
It's like a lot of people like they needed some fucking humor
in their life. Like everything was way too
serious. Very serious and very.
Dirty. Both are true.
Yes, he needs some fucking humor.
Who knows how long you're going to be here?

(32:12):
Damn, walking around like they got broomsticks up their ass.
I mean for crying out. Loud.
They were dumping their fucking waste.
Their bodily waste in the streets were just oh.
Yeah, I wasn't kidding earlier when I was making that joke.
They really did do that. That's why a lot of people got
sick and talking. It's just out into the fucking
streets. Fucking disgusting kids just out

(32:34):
there playing. I don't know why my fourth child
has died. Oh, Janet, Maybe it's because
they're running around and shit.Literally bathing in human
waste. Oh, wait, they didn't bathe,
right? Yep, that's true.
Right? Wow.
All right. Well, anyways, carried on.

(32:55):
Sorry, not sorry. This is why they needed comedy,
okay? Yeah, Fuck.
Depressing times. Thought it's bad now.
Nope. No.
I'll take today over then. Thank you.
Absolutely. Yeah.
Yeah. Wow.
All right. So moving right along, the
depiction of female sexuality inVictorian burlesque was seen to

(33:18):
be an example of the connection between women as performers and
women as sexual objects. Throughout the history of
theater, the participation of women on stage has been
questioned Victorian culture beauty paid female performance
as being closely associated withprostitution.
That's why you would see a lot of.
Times Men would portray women inthe theaters.

(33:42):
So maybe some of you have been thinking, how did society accept
burlesque? Weren't they all about modesty?
The knee high 47 laced boot hooks of it all?
Well, I'll tell you, actresses in burlesque would often play
breeches or breeches roles whichwere, like Nick you were saying,
male roles played by women. Likewise, men eventually began

(34:06):
to play older female roles. In other words, they were cross
dressing. These reversed roles allowed
viewers to distance themselves from the morality of the play
and made them able to focus moreon joy and entertainment than
the catharsis. A definitive shift away from the
neoclassical ideas like how scandalous it was for when to be

(34:29):
showing anything more than ankleskin and wearing pants and
wearing form fitting clothing that weren't 12 layers deep.
Got the the watching someone puton a historical like a Victorian
where especially specifically women.
The fucking layers. Oh my God I wonder.

(34:49):
They were all tiny little things.
I couldn't fucking breathe. So they passed work out, fainted
a lot. That's why a lot of women
fainted. A lot was because of corsets and
stuff and not being able to breathe.
Yeah. You remember Pirates of the
Caribbean when she's, she actually like faints she has to
put on all of that. Yeah, That's that's real.
It's real. Well, it was real.
Yeah. I'm about to throw a lot of

(35:11):
years out at you guys, so do your best to just kind of keep
track. If you don't, I don't blame you.
Yeah, it's fine. Bring out little toy figures or
something modeling your. Tears rewind 15 seconds.
Yeah. So burlesque became the
specialty of certain London theatres, including the Gaity
and Royal Strand Theatre from the 1860s to the early 1890s.

(35:32):
Until the 1870s, burlesques wereoften one act.
He's running less than an hour and using covers and parodies of
popular songs, upper pieces and other music that the audience
would readily recognize. In the house, stars included
Nelly Farran, John Debone, Edward Terry and Fred Leslie.

(35:55):
So they showed up in almost every show, while they were in
every show, almost in every act,they were the stars running it.
Oh wow. OK, they were stars and then the
stars, the people that the crowds really came to see.
So from about 1880, Victorian burlesque shows grew longer

(36:16):
until they were a whole eveningsentertainment rather than a part
of a double or a triple bill. They were the main full only
event. In the early 1890s.
These burlesque shows went out of fashion in London, and the
focus of the Gayety and other burlesque theaters changed to
the new, more wholesome, but less literary genre of Edwardian

(36:38):
musical comedy. And in case I wasn't the only
one that didn't know what an Edwardian musical comedy was,
it's a genre of British musical theater that thrived from 1892
into the 1920s, extending beyondthe reign of King Edward the 7th
in both directions. So before and after him, after

(36:59):
their fade of from popularity inEurope.
Well, that's where Nikki will take it away.
OK. Because then we enter the
American burlesque. The American.
Burlesque. OK, so 1868 was the very first
on stage tease and this was in America.
So credit for the first on stageon stage tease in America goes

(37:21):
to Lydia Thompson. Now I know none of you know who
the fuck Lydia Thompson is, but let me assure you, how do you we
love Lydia. Lydia.
Lydia. Had you been alive during this
time, you would have known who Lydia Thompson was.
She became very, very famous andshe is actually known as the
Queen of Burlesque. So, Lydia.

(37:43):
Get it, Queen? That's right, Lydia was a very
ambitious Music Hall darling, and she was behind the burlesque
troupe called the British Blondes.
And as you guess, yes, they wereall blonde.
She said, very unimpressed. Blondes is this where is this
where everybody's love for blondes came could because dudes

(38:03):
will just like see a blonde fromlike way far away and be like,
oh, check her out and then get close and like, oh, nevermind,
it's a crackhead. That is not where I saw you
going with. That.
I'm serious and that's how I feel when people see redheads.
Like natural redheads? She's like, oh wow, fucking.

(38:24):
Unicorn in the wild? Nope, it's just crackhead.
What the fuck? Continue.
Oh my gosh. Anyway, so the British blondes,
Their first production was called Ixion or The Man at the
Wheel. It shocked audiences in America
because the women wore revealingtights and were seen depicting

(38:48):
and mocking male roles, including their sexual
aggressions and misogyny. Oh no.
Anything but that. Don't point out our bad
characteristics. People loved it.
Hell yeah, I love doing that now.
She was the OG drag king. Fuck yeah.

(39:09):
We love Lydia. Yeah, Lydia.
Lydia. Lydia.
So Ixion was also written and produced by all of the women
with no assistance from any malecounterparts.
Fuck yeah yes this was a all woman production from start to
backstage to on stage. Like no men were involved.
I know. Fucking love it.

(39:29):
Get it Queens. That's.
What I'm saying so this event was so pivotal, pivotal in
American theater because it was the first instance that a
Victorian burlesque troupe had attempted to independently
perform a theatrical production depicting males.
This show was so insanely popular, and it attracted the
attention of both men and women across America.

(39:52):
In fact, Thompson and her troupemade over $370,000 in their
first season in America. That's equivalent to about $8.4
million today. God damn.
Yeah. So when I say insanely popular,
I fucking mean it. Damn, talk about being fucking
successful and killing it. That's why I said if you were

(40:14):
like back then, you would have known who Lydia Thompson was.
Damn that is so impressive. For real.
Holy shit for real. So follow your dreams.
That's goddamn. Most audience members applauded
the women for fighting against the standard set for women
during these times. Thompson's female driven
burlesque shows in the late 1860s sparked a lot of debate in

(40:35):
both England and America. Women were pressured to dress
modestly and primarily wear onlylong dresses that wouldn't draw
attention to their figures. These women, however, were going
against these societal standardsand pushing for a society that
allowed women to openly express their sexuality without fear of
repercussion. Fucking legends Lydia, Lydia
fucking legend. The women did face backlash for

(40:59):
their actions in their shows. While most audiences enjoyed the
stance against societal pressureon women, the press thought
otherwise. Obviously, because who's the
press run by men? Yep, thank you.
Comments in the newspaper publications deemed Thompson as
a prostitute, claimed that her blonde hair was a wig.
It can actually be real blonde hair.
I wonder how they were able to dye their hair back then with

(41:20):
bleach or. Peroxide.
Sorry, I don't know why I said bleach peroxide.
That answers that. Yeah.
Hey, you know what you did say earlier?
I have all the answers, so I'm here for you.
I said you should have all the answers.
And I did. I was right.
With that was a luck. That was lucky.
Whatever. Oh my gosh.
OK, so anyway, some reporters even went as far as to call the

(41:40):
women immoral. Wilbur Story, owner of the
Chicago Times, had a significantamount of negative feedback for
the women and labeled the women as low and degrading.
Oh shut the fuck up, Wilbur. Yes, fucking pig.
In response, and I fucking love this so goddamn much.
Did they make fun of him? Better.

(42:01):
Thompson and her troop went to Story's home and beat him with a
horse whip. That is better.
Oh my God. Fucking.
Legends. Oh shit, that's that is better.
That's fucking I know. I was like, fucking stop.
I love you so much. Lydia.

(42:22):
Lydia, Lydia. Oh my God.
The women, the. Women were charged with assault,
however. For real.
However, the incident made the audiences fall in love with them
even more. Yeah, yeah.
And with their performances, their shows sold out even
faster, and the women were benefiting from all the

(42:43):
increased sales. Thank you for the publicity.
That's. Right, yes.
And they're like fuck. Yeah, Can you imagine?
Women were just like, Oh my God,yes, they did what we think
about all the time, right? When?
Asked years later about that. Incident, Thompson responded.
The persistent and personally vindictive assault in The Times

(43:04):
upon my reputation left me with only one mode of redress.
They were women whom he'd attacked.
It was by women he was castigated.
We did what the law would not dofor us and.
That is so powerful and I just. Saw that.
I was like, yes, is that what weneed to do these days?

(43:24):
Do women just need a rally around each other when
somebody's raped or beaten and just go beat the fuck out of
that asshole? Yeah, I genuinely think people
aren't. Fucking they're they keep
fucking around and they're not getting enough find out yeah,
more people need to get their ass beat for being pieces of
shit. Exactly for sure 100% I would
just I just I would love to readan.

(43:44):
Article where women just went and attacked a man who raped
women. They just went and beat the fuck
out of him. Yeah, I would love that.
I would fucking. Frame that shit.
Oh yeah, absolutely man. Not only is their body.
Getting would be getting bruised, but that fragile ego
thinking that they're mightier than thou and I can do whatever
I want 'cause I'm a man yeah Oh yeah, and you're a woman.

(44:06):
You're here for my. Pleasure.
Meet my horse, Whip. Yep, I that's.
What I'm saying, and this was inthe 18 fucking. 60s you guys,
Damn, bring that back, that's what.
I'm saying I'm like fuck yes. Holy shit, you all are brave.
Yeah, seriously, That was absolutely unheard of.
Yeah, that was crazy, man. That got me.

(44:27):
Amped up, I know I. Know so even though burlesque
still has several. Negative connotations to its
name in present day America, Thompson and her troupe made
strides in both theatrical productions and the feminist
movement. Their passion to stand up for
the female sex left audiences with a deeper understanding of
the societal pressure that womenwere facing during that time.

(44:48):
And I am fucking here for it, Absolutely.
I'm going to look up a picture of her.
She's not what you'd expect her to look like.
We'll put a picture. Of her in the social.
Media so you guys can see her Oh, apparently the Lydia
Thompson is also a. Rugby player, Yeah, yeah, a few.
Yeah. There's also a female.
Rugby player by the name of Lydia Thompson, which I'm not
mad about, No, a lot of female. Females in sports, especially

(45:11):
rugby, and that's intense. Thank you.
OK. She got some hair on.
Her moving on the timeline we are now in. 19 O 7 In 19 O 7,
the Zig Field Follies take the stage on Broadway for the very
first time. So the Ziegfeld Follies are a
theatrical, or were I should saya theatrical juggernaut that

(45:31):
forever transformed the Broadwaymusical.
When the show was first mounted in 19 O 7, no one, not even the
producer Florence Ziegfeld, could have possibly imagined its
impact. Ziegfeld was simply trying to
mount a light, inexpensive entertainment for the summer
season. But the result, Follies of 19 O
7 was such a smash hit that he soon attached his own name to it

(45:53):
and began mounting it annually as the main event on the
Broadway season. Golly yeah, over the.
Years follies became an opulent.Spectacle the likes of which had
never been seen on stage. It also became a newsworthy
event that was covered in gossipcolumns from coast to coast.
But what really made the Ziegfeld Follies an event was
it's Showgirls, a collection of eager dancers and chorus like

(46:17):
singers advertised as, quote, the most beautiful women in the
world. UN quote.
Hell yeah. It became a.
Popular sport to. Guess which one would break out
and become the next big star? Like one time showgirls Barbara
Stanwyck, Paula Goddard, Gypsy Rose Lee, who we'll talk about a
little bit later, Josephine Baker and Marilyn Miller.

(46:37):
Today, the spirit of the Ziegfeld volleys is still very
much alive. The Broadway musical as we know
it would not have been made possible without the unique mix
of style, sophistication, A sheer spectacle that the master
showman Florence Ziegfeld bestowed upon the American
stage. So there you go.
Just bringing burlesque, puttingit on a bigger stage.
Really. I love it.

(46:57):
I. Know.
Now we're going to go forward just a couple more years into
1912 to Minsky's Burlesque. Minsky's Burlesque is an
American brand of burlesque operated by operated in a
variety of theaters from 1912 to1937.
It refers to the American burlesque shows produced by the
Minsky brothers, a Billy, Herbert and Morton.

(47:18):
They are known for their significant role in popularizing
burlesque and their eventual clashes with authority, which
led to the closure of their theaters.
They developed a specific style of burlesque that included
elaborate costumes, comedy, and female performers, often with
suggestive but not fully nude acts.
Their shows, while popular, wereoften criticized for being too

(47:39):
risque, and eventually Mayor LaGuardia ordered all burlesque
theaters closed in New York. Boo, you prude I.
Know also I wonder how suggestive the like not nude but
like close to nude actually was like were they in a what we
would consider like a bikini with like shorts or something

(47:59):
more or less something sheer Yeah, despite the closure in New
York. The Minsky name continued to be
associated with burlesque. Harold Minsky, one of the
brothers, took his shows to other cities like Chicago, Los
Angeles, Miami, and eventually Las Vegas, where he produced
quote Family Style burlesque andquote Ladies Day Burlesque.
These productions became a part of the entertainment landscape

(48:19):
in Las Vegas, appearing in various hotels.
Now we're going to go to the 1920s and nightclubs.
Prohibition sparks a rise in nightclubs and as a result,
burlesque shows. Now for me, when I think of
burlesque, going back in time, burlesque, this is where I went.
I thought of like 1920s burlesque OK is what I had
pictured but. I did not.

(48:40):
Go far enough in my in my thinking.
So yes, burlesque is a lot older.
Than even I thought. Yeah, honestly same.
I didn't realize. That there was Victorian
burlesque, Yeah, it was very interesting.
Burlesque in the. 1920s is oftenassociated with the roaring 20s
involved in theatrical performances, often
incorporating elements of vaudeville, musical numbers and

(49:02):
comedic routines, with an emphasis on female performers
and occasionally A playful exposure of the female form,
according to a blog, the Yeah. Was the were the 1920s when?
You had flappers. OK, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The Mutual Burlesque Association, otherwise known as
the MBA. Was a major burlesque circuit
during this era. Now we're going to go into 1931

(49:25):
where we talk about Gypsy Rose Lee.
Dancer Gypsy Row Lee makes her debut in New York City.
Born in Seattle, WA Hey yes in 1911 she was an American
burlesque entertainer, stripper,actress, author, playwright,
vidette and famous for her striptease act.
Her act earned her legendary status as an elegant and witty

(49:48):
striptease artist. Initially, it was propelled
forward when a shoulder strap onone of her gowns gave way,
causing her dress to fall to herfeet despite her efforts to keep
herself covered up. Encouraged.
By the audience. 'S response, obviously.
Yeah, they probably lost. Their whistle.

(50:09):
Oh, absolutely. Lost their fucking minds, yeah.
She went on to. Make the trick the focus of her
performance. Smart lady Capitalize.
On what the? People want, exactly Her
innovations were an almost casual stripping style compared
to like, the bump and grind styles of most burlesque
strippers. She emphasized the tease in
striptease, and she brought a sharp sense of humor into her

(50:33):
act as well. She became as famous for her on
stage wit As for her stripping style, and became one of the
biggest stars of Minsky's burlesque, where she performed
for four years. She was frequently arrested in
raids on the Minsky Brothers shows during the Great
Depression. Lee also spoke at various union
meetings in support of New York laborers.
According to activist Harry Fisher, her talks were among

(50:54):
those that attracted the largestaudiences.
Her 1957 memoir Gypsy, A memoir was adapted into the 1959 stage
musical Gypsy. I mean, that's that's how you
use. Your your stardom, bringing
awareness to issues. Yeah, that's awesome, right?

(51:15):
I fucking love that. Fucking Queens.
Yes, I know. I'm just so.
Impressed. Like so far I have not read
anything or discovered anything that I'm disappointed about.
No, that's incredible. To be honest, though.
Like I absolutely fucking love burlesque.
But now, like, the history of itis so rich and amazing and just,
oh, truly powerful. I'm.
I'm obsessed. Yeah.

(51:36):
It's decadent in the shut up. Mm Hmm.
All right, 19. 37 New York burlesque houses are closed,
like I had mentioned earlier. So while popular with European
immigrants more familiar with the risque performances, the New
York Times criticized the shows as being dirtier than burlesque,
and New York Mayor La Guardia dismissed them as purveyors of

(51:58):
filth. Another man, in his opinion.
Yes, too bad he wasn't getting horse whipped.
But I'm pretty sure I'm pretty sure the punishment for horse
whipping a mayor would be a lot more severe than the owner of
the Chicago Times or New York Times.
Probably worth it. In 1937.

(52:19):
LaGuardia ordered all burlesque theaters closed in New York.
Harold Minsky, through his attorney, demanded a just cause
hearing to reopen his theater. But after months of litigation,
the ban was upheld by the Supreme Court and Minsky was
forced to declare bankruptcy. Boo.
Yes. Undaunted by this set back, he
moved his shows to such places as Chicago, IL, Hollywood, CA,

(52:40):
Miami, FL, Newark, NJ and Cincinnati, OH, where he then
had introduced the Family Style and Ladies Night to entice women
to attend. Piper's cat Neptune is in.
Here with us and she is just thecutest fucking cat, dude.
The cuteness aggression. Is so fucking real with her I
can't. I know she's so cute I just want
to crush her little. Head and her tiny little toe

(53:03):
beans. You know, as a bonus, we'll show
you a picture of her. Yeah, she's so.
Cute and she looks great but she's got like these tan
undertones just can't. And these bright green eyes.
She's so fucking adorable. She is.
A little side note. All right, so now.
We move forward to the 1940s. To 1950s where burlesque moves

(53:24):
from the stage to the screen with popular films including
Lady of Burlesque, Striparama and French Follies.
And of course, we all know aboutthe 2010 film Burlesque with
Christina Aguilera and Cher. The 1970s is where we see a
sharp decline in burlesque as nudity becomes more mainstream
in the media. Thanks to all the hippies.

(53:46):
But thanks to all the hippies, we see a decline in burlesque.
So how now? Boo Hoo.
Bad hippies. Bad hippies.
You and your gosh darn. Drugs and freedom, you would
think that. It would have the opposite
effect, you know, that whole free spirit thing about it.
But I think the tease is just. Not as big of a deal.

(54:09):
I mean, women walked around titsout all the time.
Yeah, I can. See that?
Yeah, pretty, pretty open. Yeah, OK, now we're really.
Going to fast. Forward we are going to 1994
where Neo Burlesque is introduced.
A wave of Neo Burlesque performances begin in 1994.

(54:29):
Neo burlesque is a modern form of burlesque characterized by
its more edgy approach compared to the classic burlesque.
It often includes more provocative costumes,
choreography, and themes than traditional burlesque, while
still maintaining the core elements of striptease, humor
and theatricality. Some neo burlesque performers

(54:49):
use their acts to address socialand political issues, making it
a form of activist art. Hell yeah, carrying on.
From you know. Lydia Thompson and and and Gypsy
Lee love it in 2000 and. 5. Exotic World, which is a Museum
of the history of burlesque, is moved to Las Vegas where it is
then renamed the Burlesque Hall of Fame.

(55:10):
Less of a catchy title. Yeah, but, you know, now people
actually. Know what it is?
I mean, that's also true. So every year in downtown.
Las Vegas Often called Old Vegas, the Burlesque Hall of
Fame reunion would bring together members of the League
of Exotic Dancers, one of the earliest unions for women in
exotic entertainment, to performtheir half century old routines.

(55:34):
In this annual tradition, performers from the Golden Age
of Vegas Burlesque rally counterculture Neil Burlesque
fans who both keep their tradition alive and add new
meaning to it. Sadly, for financial reasons due
to the pandemic and the current economy, the museum portion of
the Burlesque Hall of Fame is closing indefinitely.

(55:54):
No, on July 20th of this year. No all other activities.
However, will. Continue on and they do say that
the museum is closing so that they can keep everything safe
and spend that money on preserving everything they said
of the economy and things kind of pick up and and they their
annual reunion thing that they do.

(56:16):
If that starts to pick up again,then they'll go ahead and reopen
it. But right now, to be able to
keep those things going, they have to close down the museum.
That OK, That's understandable. So everyone needs to search over
there and give them your money. That's right.
Yes. So this community, like old
Vegas itself continues to survive and thrive 60 years past
its supposed prime in a smoky off strip casino.

(56:39):
You will find women at times well into their 80s.
Fuck yeah. Hell yeah, Grandma, let's.
Go. Subversively bumping and
grinding. Away preconceptions about
appropriate behavior for a pensioner.
Fuck man, I love that so. Deeply.
Hell yeah. Oh my God, it's so fucking

(57:01):
amazing. Burlesque is cool as shit dude.
It really is most burlesque. Dancers throughout history would
not have considered themselves feminists.
In fact, many clash with the feminists of their day who were
attacking their livelihoods. But feminist principles are
found throughout burlesque's history.
As we have just heard, women in burlesque defied social and

(57:23):
gender norms to assert themselves and their bodies as
artists, as workers, and as women.
Burlesque performers practice onstage the ideals that feminists
put forth in their books, essays, and speeches in the 19th
century, when women were better appreciated as unseen and
unheard help and homemakers, burlesque performers made women

(57:45):
and women's place very visible. They not only performed on
stage, itself an affront to Victorian sensibilities, they
owned their companies, traveled alone, and enjoyed a freedom few
women of the time could imagine.Later, stripteasers presented
ideas about women's bodies and sexualities that would not

(58:06):
become mainstream until the late20th century.
Damn. Today, women in burlesque again
create their own acts, produce their own shows and speak their
own minds, and use the stage to celebrate all bodies and
sexualities regardless of body shape, age, color, or physical
ability. God damn it, I can't express how
much I love. This right And that is why

(58:28):
burlesque is. Fucking amazing.
Yeah, Look up at your nearest burlesque show.
You guys got to go support history, man.
Yeah, support history. Keep it alive.
But also, it's so entertaining. Yeah, it is just, you know, you.
Have no idea what. They're going to do.
And each act is just fabulous. It is, and I've been to several.

(58:50):
Different burlesque shows, and none of them have been even
remotely the same. No, they're so varied and so
completely different. They're, Yeah, they're just as
varied as the women who perform,especially if they're if
they're. Writing and producing everything
on their own. Each show is going to be unique.
Yeah. I've seen burlesque shows where

(59:11):
they have really, really elaborate costumes, like the one
that we went to last Sunday. And then I've seen somewhere the
costumes were much more toned down and provocative, I would
say, you know, And so it's just,and I've seen them where it's
very like theatrical and others where it definitely feels more
seductive and erotic. And yeah, it's just, yeah, I've.

(59:33):
I've seen basically both ends ofthe spectrum and everything,
everything in between with burlesque and I feel like
there's literally something out there for everybody.
It is just such a cool show. It's not like going to a strip
club. No, it is not like going to a
strip club. Yes they you do give them money
a lot of times do strip. But it's but it's just so much.

(59:56):
Classier, yeah, than a strip club.
There's more entertainment in itbecause there's there's acts and
typically there are singing numbers.
In there, you know, there's so many different things that can
happen. It is so fun and a lot of times
we'll. Even have like a lot of audience
participation or they come out into the audience and work with

(01:00:16):
the audience, which is really cool.
It's just yeah, I highly encourage you.
We both highly encourage you guys if you get the opportunity,
male or female, to go to a burlesque show, go.
They're so fun. They're so.
Good, you will enjoy yourself. If nothing else, go for the TNA
man. Like there will be TNA a lot

(01:00:41):
that's true. Yes, but it is very fun.
OK, so Samara, when she was doing her research across the
sites that basically had a quiz that you took to find out what
your burlesque persona is and this was very fun.
So I'm I'm happy with mine and I'm very curious to know what

(01:01:03):
Samaras is. I'm also very.
Happy with mine mine. Definitely fits me.
And I'm the same. Oh my God.
OK, I'm so. Excited, I, I told.
Gavin about it and he was like. Yeah, that, that tracks.
So. Oh my God.
OK, so so the dance type that I got is the nerd Lesker.
The Nerd Lesker. OK, the description said.

(01:01:29):
You're ready for whatever, babe,and we love that.
Nerd Lesk isn't just simply cosplay on stage.
It's about creating a story arc with theatre and choreography,
but focused on the nerdier side.Think Doctor Who, Marvel Comics,
and Disney characters. I mean, really, anything goes as
long as it's geeky enough. The ideas are endless.

(01:01:50):
Harry Potter, Deadpool, or even the Stay Puffed Marshmallow Man
from Ghostbusters. As long as it's nerdy, dirty,
and flirty, it's nerd Lesk. Which I feel is pretty accurate.
I'd likely choose. Comedy over seduction anyways.
Nerdy, dirty and flirty. God, that definitely suits you.

(01:02:12):
I know, right? So.
At the end of the the quiz it gives you your your thing but it
shows you a famous performer that is a nerd, lesker or
whoever you got. And my famous performer was
Stella Chu. OK, makes you want to look,
Stella. Chu up and like see if we can

(01:02:32):
see any of her stuff. I will do that.
Does it give you any costume or act ideas?
Star Trek cosplay, Laura Croft, Schoolgirl, Supergirl anime and
Star Wars. Oh my God.
Laura Croft stop. That's I know right?
I would fuck with some Laura Croft stay.
Yes. What was yours?
OK. Mine.
I think is not surprising. Mine.

(01:02:55):
Is the temptress. Oh, that's fitting.
So the temptress. Is the ultimate fantasy.
The Temptress will entice you with her bountiful beauty and
mysterious gaze before seducing you with her secrets of
allurement. You will hear tales of the
Temptress's hypnotic ways, how she lures men in with their

(01:03:16):
charm, only to get what she wants out of them, their souls.
Since the creation of burlesque the Enticing.
Temptress has swung her hips andcaptivated audiences with her
sultry costumes and seductive performances.
This seductress is feared by allmen, especially those who have

(01:03:37):
succumbed to her charms. I love that for you.
I also want men. To fear me.
Maybe not for the same reason, but.
Try and act as a famous femme. Fatale such as Poison Ivy from
Batman and Robin, the bride played by Uma Thurman in Kill
Bill, or the classic Concha Perez from The Devil is a Woman.

(01:03:57):
And if you don't know this movie, you really should.
By the way, The Devil is a Womanchronicles the tales of
seduction of a local Spanish woman, Concha Perez, who played
with men for her pleasure and for their money.
Now my famous temptress, it was Arya del Noche Zorta.
God damn, that's a name. I know it.

(01:04:18):
Sounds like a temptress's name it.
Does, especially if you said in like.
An accent, right? My costume and.
Act ideas are femme fatale Cleopatra siren Medusa Tarzana
Jane I still like. Tarzana Jane should be.
Yours. That's hilarious.

(01:04:39):
Snake charmer, belly dancer, andfire breather.
Those are cool of shit man. Thank you.
I was like, OK, I'm fucking. I'm psyched for mine.
I'm like. Yep, that feels like me.
So during the the quiz. There was a question.
It was like, how do you want your audience to feel or
something like that? Oh my God, yes.
One of the options was confused.So I went with that one.

(01:05:03):
I want my audience. To feel a little confused.
This is funny. I'm a little turned on but
definitely confused. That was so funny.
I know I saw that. I was like.
No, I definitely don't want my audience confused.
Two sides of the coin, the otherone of the other.
Options was aroused and I was like.
Yeah, I'm obviously aroused. Hello.

(01:05:25):
We're we're similar, but we're. Very different as we are and I.
Think this quiz. The quiz results were a.
Perfect example of how differentwe are, yeah.
It could be in the same wheelhouse, but.
Doing totally different shit. Absolutely.
I fucking love that that's. So awesome.
I'm so glad that I found that. Me too, that was.
Really fun. I was like this is so great I

(01:05:46):
love this so much. Very nice.
Very nice. All right, Well, did you guys
have fun? Did you learn a lot about
burlesque? Did you learn about me and
Samara? Yeah.
Nerdness. Are there nerdless shows?
Like I want to see one. Oh yeah.
Like I think that would be. So fun to just.
Go to a show. The whole theme is just nerd

(01:06:07):
lesk. I'm going to be doing some
searching. After this that.
Would be really fucking cool. Yeah.
We'll let y'all know in the in the show notes what we find if
we do find anything. Yeah, exactly.
We're going to have lots of pictures for y'all on the
Instagram and we'll even have some up on X Twitter so you guys
can check them out there. But this, this was really fun.
This was fun. I hope you guys learned some.

(01:06:27):
Shit, got a little excited aboutsome history.
This is why learning history canbe so cool Yeah, not all of it.
When you. Whenever I think of like
learning about history, I alwaysthink about wars and shit.
I'm like exactly exactly everything has.
History, but pick some. Cool shit.
Right, Like this, we all learnedabout wars and countries and all
that stuff. But like, let's pick like, some

(01:06:49):
cool shit. Like what is the history of
burlesque? Yeah, That would be, you know,
what is this? This is fun.
Yeah. What's the history of the Ouija
board? What's the history of?
What was one of your ideas that you had?
The history of what? Grave robbing.
Yes, there's. Oh, that one.
Yeah, yeah, there's the history of grave robbing or fun random

(01:07:10):
shit. And just look into the history
of it and you'd probably be pretty surprised at its origins
and how far back it goes. Yeah.
How it's changed or not? Changed throughout time, yeah.
I mean, I had no idea that burlesque went into the
Victorian era, back to the 1800s.
I had no idea me either. And I will say the only idea

(01:07:32):
that I had that burlesque might go back into like the early
1900s was because. I don't know, some months back I
was researching porn for some reason and I wanted to see how
the show, how far it had gone back.
And I had come across some photographs from, I want to say

(01:07:54):
probably like 19/15/1920. And there were some photos of
topless women from, from like the very first porno.
Yeah, yeah, I would I my guess. Was porn would be fun to do a
history on. Oh yeah, absolutely.
I suspected that burlesque went back at least to the early

(01:08:15):
1900s, but I wouldn't have thought 18.
No, me either. Guess I just think England,
Yeah, 'cause I just think Puritans.
Yeah. You know, I would have never
thought this would have been, Yeah, strong hand back then, but
I wouldn't have suspected that it would have been successful

(01:08:36):
the way that it was and still is.
Yeah. It's pretty amazing.
Such a cool ass ride. Fucking Lydia Queen.
Thank you. Yes.
Gypsy Rose Lee, also a queen. Yes.
Love it. Thank you, women.
Absolutely. Yeah.
Thank you. Yeah, awesome.
All right. You ready for a game, I mean.
After that I guess. This was already a ton of fun,

(01:08:57):
but yeah, let's play a game. We gotta give our listeners the
game. They look forward.
To the game, Yeah. Anything for you, Boo.
All right, we'll be back. Bye.
Just kidding and we're back. Yes.
What? Game are we going to play today,
Samara? Mind and the garden, yes.

(01:09:19):
This is a personal favorite of mine.
I I'd love this. We actually just pulled the
cards out and realized that we have less than half the deck
left, so I hope they have an extension.
This is the. Time when you guys start tossing
us more game ideas because eventually we're going to be
like this with all of our games.I know, I know we're going to
run out. Oh, no.

(01:09:42):
Oh no. Yes.
Anyway, so I know a lot of you. Love this game and notoriously
we get fucking shit from all of you because apparently everybody
but us knew that one of the cards was Tornado.
I am never gonna live that card down.
Including our cousin Jewel, who informed us.
This weekend she was like, you guys, even I knew it was Tornado

(01:10:04):
and I don't fucking live in Tornado Alley.
Like OK fine, fuck it, whatever.I'm sorry, I'm an idiot.
I get it. I'm fine.
Oh my gosh. So yell the hit.
Out. Or yell the answer out if you
guys know it. And yeah, yell the hint.
Read the card for us. Yell the answer out if you guys.

(01:10:24):
Know what it is? But really, so we know you know
what it is, Fucking shoot us a text.
We don't care how many weeks behind you are.
Shoot us a message on IG or Always relevant?
Yeah, always relevant. Whatever.
We don't care. Yeah.
Well, since I started, you want to go first?
Yeah. OK.
All right. By myself in the line of fire.

(01:10:44):
OK, now just to recap. For everybody, Mind in the
Gutter gives us 4 hints to guessa basic word.
There is nothing dirty about this word.
Like I said, the last time it was like tornado.
We've had toothbrush, we've had pool table, a shoe.
Yeah, just glasses, you know? So, I mean, it's regular stuff,
but these hints make it real goddamn hard to guess what this

(01:11:06):
regular thing is. OK?
So don't fucking hate, all right?
Here we go. First hint.
I'm a four letter. Word fuck.
Second hint, you need. To be flexible to do me.
There can be grunting and groaning before you're finished.
I stand by fuck like poop. 3rd hint, you have to spread.

(01:11:33):
Your legs to show off your Lotus. 4th hint.
You can do me in several positions.
Yoga. Good job.
Hey, the Lotus gave. It away, it did.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.
Do you guys get the? Idea I often go into your mouth.
My bristles can make you gag. Moving up and down is my daily

(01:11:54):
job. After you're done with me, you
spit out. It's got to be a toothbrush.
It is. Haven't we had toothbrush?
I don't know, but that was easy.OK.
Funny that I was in your examples before we started.
I know. OK, that felt like a freebie.
It did feel shitty. Yeah.
OK, hint 1. You can make me.
Take many shapes 2. The bigger I get, the more it

(01:12:18):
hurts you. Oh boy 3.
You might take. Pride in having me between your
thighs. Excuse me?
And four. Sometimes you have to endure
being pricked for hours to finish.
Pricked, yeah. Pricked and not dicked.

(01:12:41):
Pricked. Though that sounds terrible just
picturing A1 needle just gettingin your thighs.
What? OK, one more time 1 you can make
me take. Many shapes 2.
The bigger I get, the more it hurts you. 3.
You might take pride in having me between your thighs. 4.

(01:13:04):
Sometimes you have to endure being pricked for hours to
finish. I haven't a clue so.
I will say hint three, you mighttake pride.
In having me between your thighs.
Not everybody would do this. That doesn't help me.
You might have. It you might, you might.
Have the me anywhere on your body.
Is it a tattoo? Yes.

(01:13:24):
Oh, thank God. Oh.
So it wasn't far off with the whole needle.
I know. Wow, she's really close here.
That was really good. I was worried I wasn't going to.
Get that I? Also was worried you weren't
going to get. It let me help you out.
Thank you I. Appreciate the assist.
All right #1 when I work on yourhole, I start to come out of my

(01:13:47):
pants. Oh my God.
You seem to get the. Most sexual of the cards.
I don't know, the tattoo hands were pretty.
Fucking sexual. I mean, yeah, I don't know that
one. Just.
There's full talk here. Tell me the first thing again
now I just got distracted. When I work on your whole.

(01:14:07):
I start to come out of my pants.Jesus Christ, it's not him.
Nope. You want me to?
Poke you with force. Yep, I poke once to clear your
clog. What?
What a sentence for. If there's too much hair in the

(01:14:27):
clog, I need a longer tool. OK, now this is like some kind
of. Drain cleaner snake like
plunger? Am I close essentially?
OK, give it to me again at your.At your command when I work.
On your hole. I start to come out of my pants.
You want me to poke you with force?

(01:14:49):
I poke once to clear your clog. If there's too much hair in the
clog, I need a longer tool. This makes me think of the
conversation we had about men really liking pubic hair.
Oh, right, yeah. There's nothing to do with
helping you figure this out. No, I so that stormed me off

(01:15:09):
because. At first it's almost like some
kind of like plunger drain cleaner, you know like drain
snake. But because then you have like
the hair and the longer tool when I work on your hole, I.
Start to come out of my pants. Yeah, that is throwing me off.
That's. Your best hint when I.
Work on your hole, I start. To come out of my pants.

(01:15:33):
Think more career. Plumber.
Oh my God, the crack. Yeah, the plumber's crack coming
out of his pants. Oh my God, that was so dirty.
Jeez. OK, one after your panties are
wet. You really need me.
Wow, just starting out strong onthat one.

(01:15:54):
OK, who was getting the sexual ones?
Yeah. 2. If.
You've got too big of a load. I might go down on you.
Jesus. Three.
If you've got too big of a load,I might go down on you.
I know. What does that even imply?
What are you saying to me? OK.

(01:16:17):
Three sometimes. You have to pay to stick your
dripping thing in me. We established.
We don't pay for that. Yeah.
Some episodes ago. And four, after I'm done, you
can pull out your wrinkled one. After you get me hot, I'll give

(01:16:37):
you a tumble. Excuse me?
I need to hear that again. You know, all of them are just
the last one, All of them, OK. 1.
After your. Panties are wet.
You really need Me 2 If you get if you've got too big of a load,
I might go down on you 3 Sometimes you have to pay to

(01:16:58):
stick your drippy. Is it a dryer?
It is a dryer, yes. Good job.
OK, that also made me nervous. Who am I kidding, they all make
me nervous. You're doing really good though.
I mean so. Are you?
You've gotten all of yours. I'm getting nervous.
Share it with me. Some nervous energy in here.

(01:17:19):
I want to win. All right, one when you blow.
Me with your mouth. I slowly get bigger.
Do you know I'm? Pretty sure we also establish we
don't give head to lip Dicks. Oh.
Yeah, we also talked about that.2 The bigger I get, the more

(01:17:40):
you'll feel scared. Oh.
It's a fucking Anaconda, right? Geez, not a grower, not a
shower, it's a monster. 3 Blushing and panting is your
punishment. Good Lord. 4 I hate sharp
objects, they make me explode. OK.

(01:18:01):
Oh, no. Not a sharp object.
Anything with that? OK, tell me again.
When you blow me with your. Mouth I slowly get bigger the
bigger I bubble close, but no. OK.
The bigger I get, the more you'll feel scared.
Balloon. Yeah, yay.
Good job. Man.
Those are drushing and panting. Is your punishment that fanning

(01:18:26):
myself with the card? For real?
Who? Hey, wait.
That was 4 from no, that was three shit, right?
I went first. Yep, you sure did OK.
Here is your 4th card. Your last card, you ready?
Never shit, OK. 1. You stick me between your legs
to use me. There's a lot of luggage on my

(01:18:47):
end of this Game 2. When you're on me, it's.
Hard to stay a wreck. OK, three.
It's safer with a rubber cover over my rod.
And four. You usually do me outside.
You go up and down when my shaftgoes in and out.

(01:19:07):
I need that again. OK.
You stick me between your legs to use.
Me. When you're on me, it's hard to
stay erect. It's safer with the rubber.
Cover on my. Rod, you usually do me outside.
When you go up and down, my shaft goes in and out.
What the fuck? This one.
'S probably difficult. Because I don't even know if I

(01:19:30):
know you know what this is, but I don't know that you've ever
used one. That doesn't help me in the
slightest bit. They were pretty popular among
my. Generation.
Oh great, I'll give. You a hint, yeah.
It's an outdoor toy. Is it a teeter totter?
No. Shit.

(01:19:52):
So it's like a toy, like a playground toy?
No, no, Also no. It's like a toy, like a jump
rope toy, like a jump rope toy. It's like in the category of
like what you. Would consider, like a jump
rope. I don't know.
It's a jump rope. A toy.
I mean, it's kind of a toy, right?
Yeah. I don't know.
Yeah, I don't know. What is it?

(01:20:12):
Do you give up? Yeah.
It's a Pogo stick for fuck's sake.
I was. Never going to get that.
I know those. Don't exist to me.
I tried a Pogo stick and I couldn't do and it's so
frustrating. I was just like, I'm never doing
this again. I threw it away.
Oh my gosh, I love Pogo sticks. I was good at them.
I bet you were. What's that supposed to?

(01:20:32):
Mean. Anyway, first.
Some people are dark, some are light.
If you touch me, I'll prick you.At first women are scared, the
later they like it. Wait, was that 410?
That was 4. OK.
Number them, go again. One some people are dark, some

(01:20:54):
are light. 2 if you touch me I'll prick you. 3 At first women
are scared 4 but later they like.
All I can picture is a fucking black.
Dick, right now it's not that. I know it's not.
That. Geez.
But at first women are scared and then later they like it.

(01:21:15):
Mm hmm, what was the pricking? Part if you touch.
Me, I'll prick you and that. Makes me think of a cactus, but
why would? Women be scared and then like
it. Acupuncture.
No, but some people are dark andsome are light.
Yeah, right. Honestly, I hope you.
Don't get this over even. Wow, some people are dark, some
people are light. If you touch me, I'll prick you.

(01:21:39):
At first women are scared, but later they like it.
It is kind of a weird hint. There's a hint I could give you,
but I need to come up with a better one because what I can
give you initially, yeah, that'swhat I had to do with the Pogo
stick. I was like.
Like the hint that I had initially, it was like, that's
yeah, some people are dark, somepeople are light.

(01:22:01):
Like I'm thinking photographs. But then that has nothing to do
with people being like women, being scared and then liking it
more towards men. I can't say specifically towards
men because it's not, but it's more how people are dark some
people. Are light.
If you prick me. Or if you touch me, I'll prick
you. If you touch me, I'll prick you.

(01:22:25):
Is it a beard? It is you, bitch.
Oh my God. Yes, you.
Bitch, I was going to. Say.
Jesus, you've. Stated many times that you don't
like it. This is so.
That was really fucking. Hard.
That was really hard. Congratulations, you're the
winner. Yay.
Who else? Knew any of these?
Yeah. Come let us.

(01:22:46):
Yeah, come let us know if you guys knew.
Any of these 8 cards, man? Yeah.
Let us know. We want to know.
We. We.
Like to see how we stack up against you all.
So we had one listener tell us last week that for the very
first time they had all 5 fingers down when we played.
Put a finger down and they've been degenerate.
I love it. They were.

(01:23:07):
Very proud. I'm proud to be.
A degenerate. I know they're like fuck yeah.
For the first time, I had no. Fingers up at the end of the
game, Yeah. I was like, I mean I have yet to
have all mine. Down too.
So same. I have.
I don't know what that pride feels like.
Oh. My gosh this is so fun.
You know what we didn't tell ourlovely?

(01:23:29):
Listeners about what? That fabulous family argument
that we had. Yes, Oh my.
God, you guys, we did a family. Survey So what had happened is.
We were talking about the podcast cause the family was
kind of curious about it. And we told him that we play
this game at the end of every episode.

(01:23:50):
And I was like, you know what, help me out here because we had
a question about if you would drink 8 ounces of blood for what
was it, $5000? Some amount of, I don't know.
We wound up making everything. For $5000.
And so we're like 8 ounces of blood for $5000.
Would you do it? And Samara was like, absolutely
not. And I said, hell yeah, right.
And we even put that pole up foryou guys.

(01:24:11):
We were just curious, like, you know, where, where do people
stand? You're on.
And so of course, who better to fucking test this with than our
family? And they obliged very willingly.
Let me tell you all. What a heated conversation.
It was it got loud much fun we had.
Majority blood drinkers 'cause it was would you rather do?

(01:24:33):
8 ounces of blood or 8 ounces ofurine?
Yep. And it was majority we would.
All drink blood warm urine they were there was there were only.
Three of us, I believe that shows urine.
Everyone else was blood. And then we had a follow up
question of would you rather be a vampire or a werewolf?

(01:24:54):
Yeah. Which was very fun because you
would think. Everybody who wanted to drink
blood would be a vampire, but that was actually not the case.
It was not No, it was very. Interesting.
We had we. Had a couple outliers who would
drink blood but wanted to be a werewolf.
And even still, the werewolf wasthe minority.
It was a minority, Yeah. No, the debate.

(01:25:16):
On this was crazy because we're like talking about the blood in
the urine and then like nutritional value and like our
aunt was like, well there's morenutritional value in urine.
I was like, how? No, no, I don't think so.
I was like, and also, there's nutritional value in blood.
Hello. Iron.
It's got minerals, or at least amineral.
At least one, yeah. Exactly.

(01:25:36):
And it's like we've. All tasted blood.
If we fucking bit our cheek or our tongue or suck the blood off
our finger or whatever, like we've all tasted blood.
We know what it tastes like, we've all smelt urine and but if
they you, you're. Hydrated then it's It doesn't
have a potent scent or any less.You freaking you could be very
hydrated and had asparagus the day before and then it would be

(01:25:59):
horrid, OK? So either way there was how many
of us were back there? I think there cuz it was 7:00
and 3:00 so that there were ten of us participating, but then we
had two more participate a little bit later.
So 12. So you can imagine 14 with what
we told you guys about that graduation, how loud we got the
tenish of. US.

(01:26:20):
Having this conversation, peopleare asking questions, people are
arguing their points, just all on top of each other.
It was so fucking fun. It was a lot of fun.
It was pretty wild. It was a moment where I was like
I had to stop and tell. Everybody I was like you guys
just can I just say like how much I love our family, but this
is what we are all like debating.
Right now. Yeah, very vampire blood over

(01:26:43):
urine. Like, just like, fucking
amazing. It was so much.
Fun. It was so much fun.
I highly encourage you all to dothat.
It's just bring those up. Just ask your friends like, you
know, just you're going to have a fun conversation and there is
no option to not drink one or the other.
No, you have to you have to choose one.
Yeah, that's why it's would you rather it's this or this.

(01:27:04):
And if money is not enough of a sent enough of an incentive,
Jesus, then use their fucking. Life OK gun to.
Your head, blood or urine, whichis what we had to do with our
stepdad. He was like, I don't care about.
Money like fine. You care about your life, right?
Gun to your head. Blood or urine?
What did he choose? I don't know.

(01:27:25):
I think he chose blood. He did.
He chose blood. I don't even remember asking
him. So.
Yeah, he chose. Oh, maybe it was me and Piper
that were asking him. Probably then.
Yeah, Yeah. And he chose blood and should
have asked about werewolf or vampire.
He chose werewolf. Oh, another outlier.
OK, yeah, he said. He loved the idea of bounding
through the forest. He would have dreams about it,

(01:27:46):
actually bounding through the forest.
So he's like, the idea of being able to be like, just like, I
would choose werewolf. But then I don't want to like,
lose like, you know, that conscious thinking of like,
being aware of what's going on. And I said, no, no, no.
This kind of werewolf, you're very aware.
You you still can maintain control.
You're saying control of everything.

(01:28:06):
He was like, OK, yeah. Werewolf then.
Yeah, hands down. And I was like, OK, he's like, I
just. I want to bound through the
forest. I think that would be so
amazing. Yeah, my man, I can bound
through the forest as a vampire.No, you can run.
OK, whatever. It's different than bounding.
I can still. You can frolic through the
forest like a. Fucker.
Wow, so fucking. Rude.

(01:28:27):
There's a lot of vampire. Hate happened here.
Rude. Really rude.
That was so rude. OK, I do not appreciate it.
