owner's box. I don't think it'sa good idea. You're not serious.
Yes, yes, yes, Iam. Didn't he say that? No,
no, but he gave me theseats, and I don't think he'd
like it if you wore an Orioles. Yeah, well maybe you should ask.
(00:21):
I don't have to ask him.Now, you're gonna take the hat
off or not? Oh, I'mnot gonna take it off. Why should
I take it off? That's ridiculous. Let's just take the cap off?

(01:18):
where we discuss everything we know aboutthe show about Nothing, and this week
we are here to review the episodewith a loathsome offensive brute himself as the
claimer. It is the letter.Hey, I'm Danna, and I am
that lowsome loathsome. Oh my god, that's a hard again say. Today
I fucked it up as well,loathsome loathsome. I was about to say,
so, you know, props tothose to those actors. I already
(01:38):
thought they did a very good job, and now I know they've done an
excellent job. I am that loathsomeoffensive brute guy. Thank you everyone who
was tuning in to the show thisweek, and thank you to everybody who
was rated and reviewed us on ApplePodcasts, and to everyone who has joined
us on a patriarch supporting this fourfinger discount network. You are all absolute
champions. I don't forget. Ifyou want to get in contact with us,
it's talking Seinfeldt at gmail dot com. We'd love to hear from each
(02:00):
and every single one of you.But mister Davis, how's your week been.
It's been eventful, one might say, in good ways and bad.
I'm still just enjoying the aftermath oflast week's anniversary with the love of Louise
Yes, and then Valentine's Day waslike a week later on. I didn't
(02:20):
really do anything for it. Youknow. We although, in my defense,
Lou and I said good morning toone another, and then middle of
the way through the day, shesaid, oh, way be Valentine's Day's
Valentine's daw, I forgot about it. Boy. You know you're in the
right relationship or in a good relationshipwhen Valentine's Day doesn't matter, because every
day should be Valentine's Day. Thatis correct. But having said that,
I was sort of a bit paranoidlast night. I'm like, should I
(02:42):
have done the traditional Valentine's Day stuff? Should I mean, I'm gonna,
I'm saying, of course, Luketonight, So I mean, I'll probably
take over some flowers and all thatkind of business, just to say for
you because I care. But you'regetting those after Valentine's Day half price discounts,
Mamma Davis didn't raise no dubh.Yeah, there's that as well.
There's something our special today about today, mister Davis, what is it?
(03:05):
I have to say happy anniversary tomy wife Nicola lyon recording this on February
fifteenth, two thousand, or twentytwenty three, because you say twenty twenty
three every fifteenth ten year wedding anniversary. Yes, he made it. That
was me clapping my hands. Bythe way, it feels like the first
milestone has been reached. You know, ten is a big deal, and
congratulations you made it. I meanthey everyone talks about, you know,
(03:29):
the seven year itch and all thatkind of nonsense. I don't know how
much stock you're having that, butten years it's a good round number.
It shows you're in for the longhaul. Congratulations. The seven year itch
was fine. It just got abunch of cream, just you know,
coming up those spots. No,no, no, indeed, I was
literally he said to Nikola this morning. I was just looking at it and
I was just like, actually,and this is not me bullshitting. I
find it more attractive now than whenthe day I met it. And that's
(03:51):
just what happens when you're in agood, good relationship with a good marriage.
I'm sure you're the same with thelove of Luise. That is correct,
sir man. You know who's notnecessarily good partner, Nina. We're
here to talk about the letter,right, very jealous of Elaine. I
mean, I get the jealousy.It is a kind of a weird situation
where it's not just that their friends. Elaine's always over. Yeah, that
(04:12):
would kind of be this like,really is that really normal? But I
can but she just seemed very paranoidNina. She did indeed something I noticed
from well first thing, and Iwas like, Hey, that's actor Katherine
Keena, who I quite likely havebeen a bunch of a bunch of good
movies, a bunch of good shows, are very very good actor. I
first saw her in the forty yearOld Virgin. I reckon forty year Old
(04:33):
Virgin being John Malkovich. I'm notgonna look out by m dB. You
can do that, but she's not. She's the wife and get out she
is. Yes, she's very goodand get out. You know who I
always getting confused with. I alwaysgetting confused with the mother from Step Brothers,
cal Mary Steen Virgin, because she'slike an older version of this actress.
(04:53):
But they kind of similar. They'vegot a similar Lukie, right,
and you know who else? She'sa bit similar to Julie Louis. Yeah,
to an extent, That's what Ithought when I first saw a lankier
version of her a little bit.But when I say, hey, that's
Catherine keenan and then looking at theway she's sort of styled in this episode.
Maybe it's an early nineties thing orwhat it's like. She looks a
(05:14):
bit a Lanish jildish. What's goingon here? I like it a pledged
Springfield, But I was wondering ifif they actually styled her in that fashion,
if they cast her because of that. But you know, it's interesting,
But you're right, not a goodpartner. But Jerry also not necessarily
a good partner. It's very Jerrythis story in the sense that he's in
(05:36):
a relationship where he's openly saying,yeah, it's not gonna last long.
Yeah, that's just about sums upJerry. Though he's just he's very he's
against commitment. But have you everbeen in a relationship like that though you're
sort of you're in one, andyou've been maybe in it for a few
weeks or even a couple of months, and you realize, I don't think
there's got staying power. Yeah,but it's but it hasn't reached that sort
(05:57):
of critical mass stage where it's like, nothing bad enough has happened for me
to say we want to pull apin on it. But but there's nothing
there that's enticing or exciting you tocome back. Yeah. Yeah, it's
not necessarily going to explode. It'smore going to implode. You know,
I'm just going to run out ofthe ties, are just going to run
out of air. I didn't thinkthat they were both sort of almost made
(06:18):
for each other to an extent,but but yeah, what I did like
about the Nina story though, wasthe George angle. I thought George was
very relatable in this, the wholeI'm not I're going to buy anything,
right, That's how I would beable to I'm coming. I'll come and
say hello. Ain't buying ship though, because I don't get art. Me
personally, I don't get art.And as we're discussing our latest guests,
(06:39):
we record a couple of nights ago, our review of Brushed with Greatness from
season two of The Simpsons with DavidB. Cooper, a Simpsons artist,
and he was saying that art is, you know, ten percent, your
idea, nine percent, the personbuying the art telling you, telling you
what it means, and you're justsort of nodding here, You're absolutely right,
that's one hundercent one. I meant, great episode, and well,
(07:00):
great episode of the Simpsons, greatepisode of four fingered discount, great guest
So yeah, ball means get onthat listeners. Yes all the way from
season two of The Simpsons is alwaysgreat going back and reviewing those early episodes.
One with Ringo star Hung It onMe Wall Gear episode Yeah, Yes,
I'm not gonna lie. I thoughtMichael Richards in the first act of
this episode was super creepy, likewhen he was asking Joey's girlfriend taco clothes
(07:24):
off. Huh. I mean,I know you're kind of kidding, but
are you my exact note Cram,are you inappropriate flirt? Because yeah,
I mean one gets the feeling that, yes, he certainly is joking,
but it's that joke where it's like, but if you did just just casting
the road, so seeing I asany nibbles about me, that's a really
(07:46):
good way of putting it. Butyeah, I just thought Besides that,
though, I thought Michael Richards wasvery funny, but it was just purely
there sort of for the physical comedyreally, and this one wasn't. He
isn't really have much of it besidesthe paint obviously, but Michael Richard himself
wasn't really adding much to the story. He was just sort of He was
there a lot, but he wasn'tnecessarily and he was vital I guess to
(08:09):
it in some way. Oh no, I actually, no, he wasn't.
He was there the baseball one.He wasn't necessarily vital, but he
was there for the comedy. Ithink. I mean that George had some
funny lines, but yeah, Cramerwas just sort of. No. Maybe
it's just because even Kramer being thesubject of the painting, that's not necessarily
important. The painting could have beenanything. That's true. Yeah, but
you know that. And it feelslike the stuff that they did around the
painting, particularly with the old couplewho were sort of looking at it and
(08:31):
having their various opinions about it,and then so taken with the Cramer that
they spoiler for the end I havehim over for dinner. That that wasn't
it didn't have to be crame andthat wasn't necessarily the case. I mean,
it was good that it was.He made a meal of it,
But I get the feeling there wasmaybe not a lot for Michael Richester work
with here, so he really hammedit up, slash amped it up to
(08:56):
Yeah, but they when you've gota gifted physical comedian like that, you
might will just let him let himoff the chain a bit. What do
you think about the other baseball anglethat apparently really happened to Larry David.
Howard Weston, executive from NBC gotHarlowe David some tickets too a out to
a baseball game and his friend wasasked to take off the Yankees cap andhen
he thought it was absolutely ridiculous,So he worked into this story. Even
though the episode is called The Letter, that's that's almost a big I guess
(09:18):
it's kind of even even footing withthem with the letter story, but I
feel like that was a big partof this episode, the baseball story.
I am on team Elaine here,like, fuck off, you can just
leave your hat on, that doesn'tmatter. I guess she's in the owner's
box. But for example, ifwe go to an AFL game, he's
showing us football. You can goanywhere. If you're on the opposition jump
of people just like ah, ifyou do it, you just got to
(09:39):
expect to cop something in return.In regards, it's sort of like tongue
in cheek banter back and forth,but no one's going to be actually angry
at you. Forgive me, I'mbeing a bit ignorant here, but is
Baltimore actually playing in that game thatthey go to or is a lane just
sort of rubbed any camp? Idon't think, so I will double check,
but I'm pretty sure they're not.Yeah, So I mean, I
(10:00):
don't know. Yeah, I thinkif you're a half like decent birthday,
if someone rocks up with a capor a scarf or a jumper or whatever,
that's not your team of choice.And even if they're in you know,
the cool box or the cool seatsor whatever, it's just like just
roll with it, well, youknow, just poke, have a little
bit of fun at their expense.Like really, okay, fine, but
(10:22):
yeah, don't be that much ofa tool about it. So, yes,
I'm I'm I'm team Alane, asI am in many things. And
like George, though, do youwant me to come as well? No?
Stay fine. I have never neveremphasize, empathized more with George than
I have at that moment. Haveyou ever been in situations like that where
you know you may see any threeout of the nightclub. It's like we
(10:45):
just got in, mate, mate, and it does go through your mind
like, he'll be RIGHTIO get home. Just check at the cab we find
I'm staying, mate, I'm staying. Yeah, it's worse if it's your
partner. If it's your partner,then you've got to go, even if
you don't agree, even if youknow your partner's fucked up. It was
like solidarity. Not that not thatNicholas ever been thrown out of anywhere,
(11:07):
but you know that is a goodone still. So what were your favorite
moments of the letter, mister Davis? Um, Now, I should be
a bit more prepared when I dothis podcast. I've got pages and pages
and pages, by which I meantwo pages of notes about this episode.
(11:28):
But I didn't look up the namesof the actors playing the sort of older
couple who are debating the merits ofthe cramer and then decide to buy it.
But I think they do a verygood jobs. As I mentioned earlier,
I just I like there to andfro they both realize they've got some
nice, meaty lines to sink theirteeth into and can really sort of make
a mean of So yeah, Ithink they did a very good job with
(11:48):
that. Something else I enjoyed.It's a little dig at Nina actually buy
your dad, who I think realizesthat his daughter's probably a bit of a
flippity gibbet. You know, she'sdoing her art and all that kind of
stuff, and he's obviously living offthat his money he's bankrolling, and he's
saying it was cheaper for me whenshe was an actress. I don't know,
(12:09):
I've I think I've got kind ofa soft spot slash. Yeah,
I've got mixed feelings about people likethat. It's like, you know,
it would be nice to have apatron even to even I is your wealthy
parents. But at the same time, I know some people like that.
What's that American saying you're born onthird base and you feel like you've hit
(12:30):
a home run or something. Well, it's kind of how I feel right
now. I'm just like Nicolas bringinghome the bacon right now. She's working
at the full time job. I'mdoing this this podcast thing. It would
be nice if we had more supporters, but we paying the bills. But
yeah, that's just there's just notenough for you. Extra tirees on a
Thursday night, like they used tobe extra tied inners on a Thursday night.
It used to be because like builddown, I can't buy anymore neckties.
(12:58):
I'm running out of my fancy neckis my Thursday night ties. Come
on Bedron's chip in Dan don't needa cravat. No, no, I
know what you mean, but wewant to buy the extra mic from for
Nicholas. Don't have to keep borrowingthe mic from your place back. That's
one of the things we do hereon the on the network where I'm backing
forth from guys as Brian mics.We'd love to buy a better equipment and
(13:18):
have better cameras and just better shit. So we're not all buying like fancy
neckwear here. No, we're investingin the four fingered discount infrastructure. And
if you like, you've got alistening Yeah, we would appreciate if you
did want to hear support the show. Yes, we would appreciate you.
Do you want to support its it? Literally a dollar a month would all
go a long way if you'll didthat. But anyway, enough about complaining.
(13:39):
But yes, I enjoyed that aswell. I enjoyed cramers are taunting
at the baseball I'm like football,there's nothing wrong with just when you when
you're at the game, you justyou just yell shit out. Don't take
it two shis. Don't be racist, obviously, but you don't mean what
you're saying to the player. Ifyou see them in the street, you're
gonna be nice. If you don'tactually hate them. It's just for that
two hours you know they're they're theenemy, and you just shot up.
(14:00):
You don't mean it. Yeah,or even your own team. You can
get a little vocal about Bronx cheers. Yeah, yeah, I mean,
oh you finally got a touch,buddy, Yeah, you get on your
mate. I have startled certain peoplethat i've you know, watched football matches
with me because I don't think I'mself spoken and warm heart and all that
(14:22):
kind of stuff. And then TomHawkins will be lining up for a goal
and it's like, oh my god, Tom, don't think just kick Tom,
come on, yeah, don't everthink this, mate, he's ever
thinking it. Look at him,Look look at him, look at him
over thinking it? What you doingwith what's you doing your big Frankenstein monster
looking motherfucker? And then when youknow, he gets one on the run
(14:46):
and sort of does it from inpaste. Oh you handsome statuesque Cam's were
there's God, you fucking legend.Why can you do that all the time?
Yeah, but I mean I thinkI think the first time I watched
you know, the footy with lou, like you become a slightly different person.
Yeah, that was the thing.Nicholas said. I'm glad that when
you first brought me over to yourhouse to meet your parents. It was
(15:09):
like, you know, two weeksinto the relationship, and I just knew.
Nichola was like the one and Geelongwere playing Collywood that night, and
at the time, Gelong and Collywoodwere heated rivals. And she's like,
I'm glad I went there that nightbecause you guys, like your family become
a different family, but I gotto see the real family because She's just
like it. No, it wasn'tjust a nice dinner, nice to meet
you, blah blah. I wasjust like, no, you guys were
(15:30):
just like screaming at the TV fairor footy fans. But she liked that.
She's like, Okay, these guysare comfortable being themselves around me and
she has it worked so and fromthat night on because Geelong beat I remember,
beat Collywood by like less than thegoal. From that day on,
she was a football fan. Ohgod, imagine a Collingwood and one different
story and Nicholas like, I thinkI like Collywood better. I'll be like
(15:52):
goodbye and a farewell. I alsoreally enjoyed. Before we get into add
trivia, George just not wanting tobuy the art just and the crameras like
you're gonna buy something, and Joe'syou can have a look around. It's
like, oh, fuck me,you got because I completely agree. I
just don't understand art at all.I'm not what you'd call an art connoisseur,
(16:15):
but I know what it's that oldsaying, I know what I like,
and I don't hate this. Youknow, you'll find bits and pieces
around around my house, and notnecessarily art art, more like pop artum.
But there are times when I sortof looking home. Yeah, I
think I definitely have a thing thatI like or a style that I like.
I like artists interpretations, or likemovie posters and things like that,
(16:37):
or like that's drawing their own postersof something I've seen from a movie or
things like that. I've got severalof those, like a Gremlin's one and
et one and jews one. Gotsome Simpsons ones as well, which I
need to get framed. It's oneof those things. I'm gonna get these
framed because like, do you needall these art prints? And I need
them framed. But it just costsmoney, it really does. Framing.
Framing costs a bomb. But Iinterrupt you before, what are you going
to say, mister Davis? No, No, I was gonna say that
(17:00):
George is very George here in theyeah, sort of being peer pressured into
I guess buying out or certainly showingthat he's interested. Mind you could you
could just say, look, it'sreally nice, but I'm just a bit
kind of I clearly can't afford thisstuff, you know. And you it's
very easy to sort of pay themcomp saying well this is clearly out of
(17:21):
my prize range. Um, theygo, oh, thank you so mad,
and you say, yeah, I'mnot paying money for your damn ard.
So how do when you go outwhen you great with your mates who
you know, you know, andthey know they own more than you,
and they're talking about like the newLettuce golf clubs are going buying whatever,
they will buy this, We'll getthis champagne. It's like, motherfucker's no,
I can't afford this, but youknow it's worse when they go,
I don't worry, we'll pay forit. I'm like, that's even worse
(17:41):
not watching charity just they suggest itin the first place. You know,
just go get a beer. Couldyou spell that? Please? No?

He says, give me that whatpainting? Oh no, no, says
(19:33):
says Ramber. At the end,what does he what does he say?
The other artist is Seazar? Giveme that season that's the one. Yes,
I liked the stand up and thisI thought it was really good.
We only had top and tail though, none of them we did. Yeah,

is what page of the sports section? Were they on? Page two?
(19:56):
Correct? Done? Yeah? Um? Now that the thing that we've already
sort of talked about a few ofthe things that were my trivia questions,
like you know what team is Baltimore? What is the name of the Baltimore
Cioles. Yeah, so that's afairly simple one, okay. And also
you know where were they seated?Yankee States second row from behind the dog
(20:18):
out. Yeah, that was great, that wasn't it. It's like I
wanted the first row plans my feetup in the dug out. You can't
get better sets and it's by badby bad George endercartment. But just yeah,
like just complaining the second row it'snot as good as front row.
No, but the fact that hissecond row is still complaining about it.
George, come on, all right, m yeah, that were my There
(20:41):
were some questions which I knew you'dget, but yeah, you give me
one. Okay. My two lastquestions will be where was Litman going to?
What was his trip? Oh?Yeah, because it's Texas. It's
in Texas. You go to Houston, Houston for a publisher's convention. Yeah,
that's correct. And my final questionis whereas Elane from Elaine is from
(21:03):
Baltimore near Baltimore. Oh, it'sactually Tawson, which is near Baltimore.
Says the same things, the saying, oh yeah, yeah, you're good,
You're good. I did have onemore question for you, all right,
hit me ye, what are theincorrect names that Kramer gives both Elaine
and George. Mike is one ofthem and Carroll is the other. Wow,
that is great, Which that doesn'teven really go anywhere in the end.

is in the description of this podcast. The original air date of the letter
(22:15):
was March twenty fifth, nineteen ninetytwo. Company it was over thirty years
ago. It was written by LarryDavid and directed by Tom Cheronans. The
episode kicks off with some stand upabout the museum guard. It's kind of
how how I feel about the shoppingmore guards as well. I'm like,
you feel like you're a cop.You're not really a cop, but you
(22:37):
know, I don't know, dowe get to do the payer bills?
Man? True, but even gettingin the being the focus of the mall
security guard's attention, even if they'vegot no real power or cloud or even
if they some there's some old dudethat you could probably get away from without
breaking a sweat. Stilled that,you know, authority, you've got to
respect that authorit hart but true.Also, I feel like they're more unpredictable
(23:02):
than the police. True, theymight have been drummed out of the police
force for being like a loose cannonor something. But you look at me,
like, this guy hasn't gone throughten years of vigorous police training.
This is just the doodage sign ofsecurity company and he's just, you know,
standing at the fucking game at Kmart, unpredictable, not here to serve
and protect, is here to guarthe snickers. There was one of them
(23:23):
that got really angry once because Elliottwas I was about a month ago.
He walked in with this toy intoKmart and you know, he's this old
guy and as we're walking out,he's just like, oh, you got
a receipt for that toy, soI know we walked in with it,
and he goes, ah, hesure, I said yes, and that's
my toy. It's like, Alliot, don't yell at the man. I
don't know what he's gonna do.That's like, it's my toy. And
(23:45):
then he's like, okay, itgets me his little walkie talkie. Yeah,
I've got a gentleman at the front. Here. He says, he
walked in with this, with thistoys want to make sure that it's it's
all covered or paid for. Girlslike, well, have you walked in
with it? How would I know? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, that's a good point.That's a good point. You said you
definitely walked in with it, SoI'm like, yes, I walked straight
past you with it. Yeah,no worries, I've got this covered.
I'm like, fuck off, mate, you do. You've haven't got shit
(24:07):
covered? Now you've got this covered, no worries. Funny, but he's
it's not enough to earn your money. Sometimes you got to feel like you
are ruining your money. You wantedto feel like a big man, But
Aliot's just like, it's fucking mytoy. Mate, you back up,
you come near my little gu jitsu. But Kramer here, he's getting painted
by Nina, keeps moving his faceand I'd be a horrible um what's the
(24:33):
word, I guess Subjay subjects yes, yes, because I'm constantly fishing.
I can't. I can't still fishtingmy feet, my toes like my hands
like Nicola's horrible. Nicola cannot keepher feet still. We're watching TV.
Her toes are constantly wriggling. It'slike it's a no CD thing for her.
She can't keep still. It's weird. But you know, he asked
her to take her clothes off,or he says, you want me to
take my clothes off? I cando it. She says no, it
takes her to take hers off.And I was just like, I'm a
(24:56):
little creepy. But as we're sayingearlier, he's joking, But you want
to, yes, Cramer, wouldyou hold still? I can't do this
if you keep moving. Are yousure you don't want me to take my
clothes off? I'll do it.No, that's the last thing in the
world I want you to do.Well, why don't you take your clothes?
(25:18):
I don't know. I don't thinkJerry would like that. Well,
it'll be our little secret without theapartment. And George is complaining about the
button fly. I don't think Ihave any pants button flies anymore. I
think I've got a couple of pairsof Levi's five O ones that I've got
the button fly, and that wasa very back in the dawn of time.
(25:40):
Um yeah, there was a stagewhen five O ones were really who
It's like, are you still doingyour your fly up? Still done up
a zipp? I want your buttonthem up like a cool dude. I'm
like, I'd better get in onthis action. So yeah, I think
I've got I think I might havelike one or two pairs of believe it's
five O ones that I've got thebutton fly, but otherwise now it's zips
all the way. I don't mindthe sharp interlocking metal teeth. Being my
winer doesn't matter. You've got toI think you'd have to be first of
(26:06):
all, commandoing and secondly pretty bloodycareless to you know, get the old
chap caught in the caught in thezipper due the Ben Stiller. Yeah,
I think I've done that exactly.I don't think I've actually got a court,
but I certainly had it. I'vegot a hag it caught once and
it's like, oh that's not pleasantthat, yeah, that's very unpleasant.
Yes, but I remember after that'ssomething about Mary came out for a while
(26:27):
that came out. I was everytime. I was just so conscious.
I'm like, pull it away firstand then zip it up slowly. Get
that layer of protection provided by boxershorts or your or your trunks or whatever
the Yeah. Joe then asks Georgeyou want to come to Nina's studio.
He says, you know, hedoesn't want to because you know, he
doesn't get art, doesn't want tobe sucking to buy anything. Yeah.
I completely agree with what he's saying. Yeah. And then he says,
(26:48):
oh, she's painting Kramer. Shesees something in him sort to wive,
I wouldn't hang it on a wall. We're now at back at the studio
and Kramer is pointing out that he'sgot no rich Columbian coffee brown eyes,
and this is where Nina questions himabout Elaine, and I agree with her
to an extent. It is weird. I mean it, we're so used
to it because we watched this showand we find it funny and we love
these characters. But it is aweird kind of setup. You can be
(27:11):
friends with you, I mean,if your ex wife was constantly staying at
your place and can't be able tovisit you even when Louise wasn't there.
I can imagine Louise would be annoyedby that. Oh yeah, at least
be going really like, what whatare you sure? Like, what are
you sure nothing's going on here?You'd have to be questioning that. Oh
yeah, I think so. LikeI said, I'm very fortunate that I've
(27:32):
got, you know, a verygood, you know, friendship with Libby.
But you know, there's also acouple of thousand kilometers between us.
Yeah, but yeah, we talkon the phone, sire regularly and all
that kind of stuff. But Imean, if we were constantly in and
out of each other's houses and allthat kind of business, she was popping
by, popping in, yeah,oh yeah, pop might announced or what
(27:53):
everything. I think your current partnergood would be justifying, going, what's
all this about? It's a manraid. And that's why I sort of
thought Jerry here him not understanding that. I'm just like, yeah, you
need to really put yourself in hershoes. Oh buddy, If her ex
boyphen was coming up to the studentjust hanging out all the time, you
would be bothered by it. Tellyou, I'm a little nervous, why,
(28:15):
you know, the friend meeting thenew woman. I feel like I'm
getting fixed up for a friendship.I don't know how long this is gonna
last. Really, yeah, Ithought you lark. I do. She's
got like a jealousy thing. Imean, she doesn't like me having fun
with anyone but her. You know, it's a miracle you're not married.
(28:38):
Hey, I'm not obligated to buyanything, am I? I mean this
is my friend George. Hello,nice to meet you. I've heard a
lot about you. Look at thisguy. I brought George up to see
some of your paintings. Oh areyou interested? Yeah? Sure, sure,
(29:00):
I'm interested. You're going to buya painting? Yeah? Sure?
Are you an art lover? Iam an art adra? You, Dora,
I'm an art adra. It's like, why are you digging the hole
deeper? Mate? Yeah, it'svery George digging himself a deeper and deep
behold. Yeah, but I guessyou didn't want to offend her by saying
(29:25):
I'm not interested in art. Whenyou're around an artist, you almost feel
like you have to give up thegive the impression. Then Oh, yes,
I'm into this. I I'm completelyunderstand the art, the art scene.
I don't know. I think I'dbe inclined to say, oh,
I wish I knew more about itart. You know of course that you
know it can lead to a trapof well let me educate you like that
(29:45):
was not meant to be an invitation. That was meant to be a career.
I mean a conversation. Stop it. She tells him to go look
for something that he likes. Jerrythen pretends to paint all over the Cramer
and then she gives him the fourYankee tickets to the owner's box behind the
dug out or he can't do itbecause he's gonna be away like Cramer.
You want them? Yes, it'sjust straight away, Yes, I want
(30:06):
these. George can't believe it either, says that her dad is the accountant
and yeah, and then he's holdingit painting all you like that one.
Apologies own listeners that you may haveheard a little cleft clatter clutter um.
That was basically Cat back again.That was basically Cat jumping up on the
desk wanting to hog the mic.So get out of here, pal,
Sorry about that, folks. Soat the baseball now, I really love
George's enthusiasm. Look is where weare. He's not stopping. He just
(30:32):
keeps going and going and going.We're not in the first roll. I
don't know. These are your feet, she said, first roll right behind
the dog. Go wow, it'sa second rows. It was all prine
for the first roll. I wasgonna put my feet on the dog.
Shut up, he's you can't getany better than that. Well, there's
better right there. That's better.Right. There's something about eating the food
(31:00):
from the stand. It always tastebetter. It gets your sort of into
the mood. You want to getto the footy. You want a pie,
you want a beer? Yeah,well, particularly when you got to
Continua Park and well, you know, either footy or a concert or whatever,
kransky usually get a Kranski. Okay, you love your Kranski, don't
I do love a good Kransky.Cran's gonna be it um, you know,
(31:21):
and you're paying like an obscene fivepercent markup or something like that,
but it's worth it. I rememberwe went to the Young Footy when it
was like pie day would have beenlast year, I guess, and all
pies are only you two dollars,and I was like, sign me the
fucking One of the best things aboutbeing my father's son was occasionally we get
(31:44):
to go up to the members boothor what are the big members were second
road behind the bench essentially. Yeah, that the local football stadium's version of
that, and you know it wouldbe a little bit fancy, and but
three quarter a time would come theplatters of party pies and party sausag drawers
(32:04):
and you could have as many asyou wanted. It would was so delightful.
Yeah, man, I'm so jealous. That's awesome. Of course you
could just go to the market gethis own life box of four and twenties
probably cost you less than a tiredinner. And I've just sat him up.
It must be of Nikola. Wewent to Ratley Is the local bakery,
and I wasn't different with different onedown here on Thompson Road and Nicholas
(32:28):
wanted to get some party pies forHolly and Elliott. And Nicholas like how
much the party piers now? Liketwo dollars ten and Nicholas just slamed her
hand on the desk. You're joking. I was like, Nicola, two
dollars for a party pie? Twodollars ten each for a party pie.
Nicolas like, you're joking You've madean Australian. Yes. I was like,
(32:51):
I've never been more proud of it. The little girls by the canter
was just like yes, and thenwe ended up getting a couple. But
yeah, he said he'd paid liketen bucks. He's like a box of
thirty six. But yeah, aswe're saying Cramer Arris with the food,
Elaine mentions that she's skipping the bristsSloman's Brist that she invited um that he
invited her too. What a greatday I could have been in my boss
(33:15):
his son's breast rate. You weresupposed to go to back. Yeah,
what makes him think anyone wants towitness a circumcision to go to our hanging?
Is it that unattract is they haveto take it off? Have you
over seen one whip it? Wewouldn't even know what it was. Anyway,
(33:38):
I called him back. I toldhim I had to go visit my
father in the hospital in Maryland.You gotta catch your head because just say
Philadelphia. I just thought that wasso awesome, just the yelling and then
everyone around him just being like justaccepting of it. And that's the kind
of crowd you want, because sometimesI go to the football here, the
Australian football showing your football, andI yelled something out and look there's people
(33:59):
around us that just go I'm like, I tell her to shush. But
the football. They sit there withtheir little earbuds in listening to the radio
commentary of the game. They're watching, like you're there's the game there,
Brian Taylor is not going to takeyou that much more about it. And
there's one old guy has a littleearbuds. He's like, there's three minutes
left, and I'm like, I'maware of this, mate. The clocks
(34:19):
on the big screen. You needto tell us anymore. We realized that
your eyesight's not that great, sir, but yes, they're big clocks.
There's three minutes. Yeah, Andthis is where her dad arrives, and
his dad arrives and everyone's all happyto meet him, and blah blah blah.
And he mentions that George mentioned he'sgetting the painting frame, and we
get the as you're discussing earlier shipwhen she was an actress. Then he
tells the land to take off theOrioles cap and she is just refusing.
(34:43):
This is America. I immediately thoughtof Randy Marsh but he goes from zero
to sixty very quickly in the wholetake that cap off. Yeah, just
sort of maybe makes his suggestions likeit's a there's a thing though, and
that this is one don't like goingto like the social club at the AFL
(35:04):
and things like that, because it'sjust it feels very much keeping up appearances.
I'm like, you guys are nobetter than me. You're at the
fucking footy. You're in this boxwith your jacket on, your scarf,
and like I remember I got invitedto the social club a couple of times,
and you know, the window wasopen. I like yelled out and
they're like the woman's like, wedon't yell out in here, And I'm
like, Jesus Christ, you're atthe football. You watch you got on
(35:25):
TV. You're there, Why areyou watching on the TV. Anyway,
I prefer to be with the people. I'm a man of the people.
You are, indeed a man ofthe people. I'm a cramer. I
am not need his dad, That'sthat's for sure. But as you're saying,
he he goes from zero to onehundred. It's definitely not not happy
at all, but it's very muchkeeping up appearances. The boss got me
this year, and you can't wearthat cap. She refuses, so she
(35:46):
gets thrown out. George tries takingthe cap off her as well, so
she throws his cap away and that'swhat leads to Kramer going to get it
and he gets hit in the headwith the baseball with out of the apartment,
and Elane's telling Jerry the Cramer storyand Jerry just thinks it's insane.
He can't believe it that he wastelling her to take the cap off.
And then Kramer arrives with the bandageon his head and he says, Hi,
Carrol, and he shows him thenewspaper. You guys made the paper.
(36:07):
We made the paper, he saysin that Elans just can't believe it.
She's like, oh shit, nowLitman's going to know that I was
that I was likely. He's abig sports nut. And now she's in
his office and she sees the sportssection on his desk and he questions her
how's her father, and she's like, oh, yeah, yeah, the
father, Yeah, yeah, youknow, he had various things. What
didn't he have a new writers yes? Yeah, and she gets she mispronounces
(36:32):
boyd. I thought she pronounced itcorrectly in all honesty. I mean,
I've I've always said Boyd. Maybeit's different in America, like he says
booie buoyed, But um, Ialways said Boyd. Our American friends,
God bless him. We love himfor a lot of reasons. But they're
responsible for so many good things.But they say things like aluminum and Caribbean
caramel and carmel and Craig like it'sCraig. Yeah, Craig played James Bond,
(36:59):
not Daniel Ring. I listen,Joe, Judy, I've got on
Craigslist and what the fuck is NicolaGoogle Craigslist car e k r E doubleg
Craigslist. Um, Craig, itsounds like it sounds like one of he
Man's ad the series. I lovea good JLD fake laugh when she's trying
to distract him what she's hiding thenewspaper. I think she's just fantastic at
(37:20):
that fake laugh. And he heasked for it back. That was the
third time I've done it today.Just clinging onto the newspaper, he saise
he wants to read the sports sectionon the plane on his way to the
auge of the convention. We thenget the old couple admiring the Cramer painting.
It feels melodramatic and over the top, but you can kind of see
an old couple to standing in amuseum saying this carn't ye oh absolutely again,
(37:42):
I thought that you're saying that youlooked him up? Did you?
Did you say you looked up theirnames? Have they been in anything else?
He's this couple? They are noton Wikipedia. Okay, they'll probably
be in the credits, but Ijust thought that the woman in the in
the couple really did a great job. Just love it. Meanwhile, by
the way whist they're admiring it,we have Jerry and Nina arguing and debating
(38:05):
over whether she should have taken thecap off or not, and he's sticking
with the lane, which she getsjealous by, and then he says,
well, maybe we should just endthis now before it gets out of hand.
She said, well, you're you'dlike to remain friends, well friends
with the people I'm friends with,and I'm just like a bit of a
dick Jerry sometimes. But still it'sa line you'd like to kind of say,
or that's something you'd like to beable to get away with it when
you're exiting a relationship you feel hasgone a bit toxic. If they deserve
(38:29):
it, If they deserve it,certain yeah, Jerry's Joe's just any it.
So they do, and then shesays she gives me the painting and
says, I tell George you owedme five hundred bucks. George, immediately
I'm not paying this fire bucks.Why'd you take it for I wasn't thinking,
oh, you weren't thinking, well, I'm not paying and I'd be
exactly the same. It's but justquickly lines we'll paid five unte of dollars
(38:50):
for this. Not happenings when youwhen you get art like that, that's
very um like that. Literally Aliotcould draw it abstract. Yeah, it's
like people are paying seven eight figuresfor a rothco that's yeah, basically just
a big thing of red, bigsplider red. But to me, I've
always seen abstract as so he justwinged it, eh, no planing process.
(39:13):
You just went for it. Aswe said when we were talking to
our pal dB Cooper that's David B. Cooper. Art is well, I
come up with the ratio that it'sfifty percent actually doing the work fifty percent.
This is what this means yea.And if it's about just squiggly lines,
you say, well, it meanssuch and such. Oh my god,
it really does. I can reallysee that. Oh my god,
(39:36):
this is amazing. You can't believethis. Listen to this. I don't
know what you expect to find outthere, Jerry, you know what you
want better than me. But there'sone thing I do know. I know.
I can stand here watching you tryto destroy everything I've ever wanted in
my life, wanting to smash yourface with my fists because you won't even
make the slightest effort to op forhappiness and still know that I love you.
(39:58):
You mean so much to me thatI'm willing to all your abuse and
insults and insensitivity. She's step becausethat's what you need to do to prove
I'm not going to leave you.I'm sick and tired of running from places
and people of relationships. You wantme, then fight for you, because
because I'm sure it's how fighting foryou, I think we're both You know,
(40:32):
Jerry, sound like a poet.Boy. No one's ever written me
a letter like this. Maybe Iwas wrong about it. Get up,
get in there and give her acall, pick up the phone and call
her. Should I Yes, you'redamn right, you should fight for Jerry's
should how fighting for your whole life? I'll call her Chapter two good feel.
(40:54):
I don't think I've ever saying,or if I did, I saw
it when I was a young man, because I think it's from me the
late seventies, the early eighties.But it does star around man the late
great James carn Um, Missus Kay'sMissus Kay's date. Yes, so people
do say, some people like tolike a challenge me, Jimmy rest in
(41:14):
please. So we get um,Yes, we get the letter and and
and Jerry reads it out and Icrame of blowing his nose over it and
then just wiping it. But again, even that scene, this thing kind
of ends with um. So likeobviously Cramer Tom to go call Corny and
blah blah blah, and she's she'sfine if you're got to fight for her.
But when he's wiping the other Framemork, George just sort of look at
him, it just feels like itgoes on like a few seconds too long.
(41:35):
It's like you didn't really have anythingto do here. No, yeah,
it's it's um. Yeah, youguys are stretching of a time a
little bit, Yeah, trying tomake something out of nothing. And then
Nina and Jerry obviously together again,they're having another shot at it. They're
in Jerry's apartment and they're hear thegunshot on the TV. Don't go in
there, you get a shot.And do you like to do that?
When you're watching shows that you knoware very predictable, call the shots before
(41:58):
they happen every once in a while. But my dad was terrible at that.
He would alway, oh, thisis going to happen, and then
I did you know, well,stuff that either, stuff that he watched,
all stuff that was very predictable,and it was partly endearing and partly
shut up dad. My dad's thesame if he's seen something and you haven't
seen it, He's just like,oh, this is when this happens.
(42:21):
I'm like, why are you tellingme? Really, I'm clearly watching the
movie. You've just ruined it andI'm ninety second into it. Or if
if if I'm watching a football gameon delay, I mute my phone.
I turn it off because I knowthat if my dad is calling me,
it means we won. If Iand if I don't hear from him,
(42:42):
and then the game's over and Idon't hear from I know we've lost.
So I'm like, I don't wantto know because if he always calls,
and if he doesn't, if hedoesn't ring, I'm know we lost.
I'm like, I don't want toknow the result. I need to put
my phone away. But my dadwould say, he'll be like he would
call you. I'm not. I'mnot telling you the score. When I
don't tell you, SCO, don'tworry about it. I'm not. Are
you watching it though? I'm no. I read this great twet yesterday by
(43:07):
someone said when I was when Iwas a kid, I was watching Plane
with the Apes with my um,mom and my dad, and you know,
when I first landed on the planeof the Apes, my mom said,
wow, that looks a lot likeEarth, and my dad said,
when we find out at the endthat it is Earth, And then he
pretended the whole time like he hadn'tsaid that at all, go to the
ends. I no, I neversaid that. What are you talking about?
(43:30):
Hello, George manh Hi, oweyou some money, don't well?
I really love that? Peace?Yeah? Oh meet cho met cho boy
oh boy, oh boy. Youknow, in fact, I've been thinking
about it, and uh, youknow, I feel like I'm stealing from
(43:50):
you five hundred dollars. It's gonnabe worth thousand soon. I second thought,
I can't even accept it. No, no, no, no,
George, tal you know I wantyou to have it. This could be
in a museum someday. It's notsafe with me. Should really be in
a dormman build. Honestly, George, the money's not important. I don't
saying anything about money. Yeah,Lane, Yeah, this person does not
(44:21):
believe in telephones, does she?She likes the popping. I've told her
how I hate the popping. Helikes the pop in too, just popped
in. Now I'm the big poppingguy. Yes about framing, Oh huge
popping guy. Well I was leavinganyway, so uh one for tomorrow.
Yeah, okay, okay, bye, hello Jetty Gal. I mean,
(44:51):
I love the fact that George istrying to get out of it that way.
It's it's quite a clever way.Really, It's like, no,
no, no, that's not it'snot it's not you. It's mean.
I guess I just can't accept this. If you have to keep this it's
gonna be w too much money,or always use the strategy what's in it
for me? Or you know,look at it from the other person,
but what's in it for them?You know, And that's how they get
a benefit. That's how that's howa good con works or a good scam
(45:12):
works. Again, No, Ninabringing up the whole. She just likes
to pop in it like, yeah, yeah, Cram a huge popping guy.
We just like to popping. I'ma popping guy. I've never been
that kind of person. I've neverbeen a popping guy. I'm always just
like, is it okay for meto come over? I never pop up
unannounced? Have you ever been thatway? I try not to. I
think I've done it on a fewoccasions, although I then have to think
(45:36):
about do I like people dropping by? No? I don't not at all.
No. I mean I love myfriends, I like people in general.
At the same time, I'm goingto need just a little bit of
notice before we come into my housebecause then you'll see how I live and
then you won't like me anymore.Yeah. But then Nina obviously she leaves,
(45:59):
and Elaine she says, chatty gal, and then they're all here Lane's
worried she's gonna get fired, andJerry's he's a fast clicker. I used
to be this way. I feellike I'm not anymore because we don't really
change channels that we used to doanymore do. It's it's like the streaming
service. You find something you wantand you watch it. I guess if
you're flicking through the menu on Netflixand stuff, you can consider that's the
modern day version of this. Iguess, yeah, although I mean flicking
(46:21):
is kind of like, oh,you're you're running along the information super highways
such as it is, whereas yeah, if you're on the Netflix main menu
or any of any other stream once, it's like this that I don't know,
not tonight, yeah, yeah,I mean, god knows, I've
had this so many times with thelevel of the ways where it's like,
(46:43):
all right, let's go to what'snew and upcoming on Netflix that's not until
Wednesday this one, Yeah, it'stime. And then this actually happened last
night. We were about to startwatching this movie on Apple and enough time
had gone past, said hey,how long does this go for? Oh
(47:04):
it's going to run till No,I'm not gonna make it I'm not gonna
make it. Let's find let's let'sfind some only goes for an hour as
opposed to two hours, because Nicholasgot obviously Nicholas to get up early for
work. Sometimes when she has togo to Melbourne, she's like, I
can watch half of it. I'mlike, I don't want to watch half
the Millville. I want to watchit now. I'd like that if I'm
in thrawed in, like if i'myou know, if a movie has captivated
me, I'm halfway point. Andthen Nicola goes, I'm gonna go to
(47:27):
bed. I'm like, I don'twant to push stop. Yeah, I
honestly think. I mean because youlook at there are so many streaming series,
particularly Netflix ones, where you lookat here. You started as a
movie, didn't you. You didn'thave to be a six episode thing.
You were a two hour a moviethat got stretched out to like, yeah,
six hours or something, and Ithink they did that. So it's
like, oh, I can't committo two hours, but I can commit
(47:50):
to an hour, and then Ican break that up into six six things
savy people. But yeahs he said, so George, I like the fight
over here over the remote and Georgesnacks at time. I'm a great click
out. But what's great about it, though, was Jerry's life. He
doesn't had to click in Georgie's life, motherfucker on it had it clicks the
back and he clicks them onto chaptertwo Neil Simon, and this is where
they realize that she has copied theletter. It's Lenny West, my account,
(48:15):
who is a hell of a guy. And he handles the Yankees too.
It's as big as the account.So every once in a while they
throw him a couple of seats,and last weekend he gave him to his
daughter. She's an artist, bythe way. Anyway, her daughter gives
them to some friends. You know. One of her friends shows up wearing
(48:37):
a Baltimore cap from Baltimore. Right, Oh it's Towson and that's near.
But you're an Oriole fan, right, you know my father. She refused
to take the cap off. Shegoes the whole big scene. Yeah,
(48:57):
yeah, so impudent. Yeah.So he gave me the tickets for tomorrow
night. I'm inviting Frank and Marcia. Want you to come. I've got
plans, though, missus. Hemissed the Prince. I want you at
the game. Okay, okay,good okay, mister and the lane.
(49:28):
You know the Baltimore cap you gotin your office, wear it. I'm
gonna have a little fun. Thatwill be fun. Now there's a mistake
here, Lipman says. Lipman saying, talking about what Elaine did, he
doesn't know it was Elane. Andhe goes and her daughter gave her tickets
to her friend. But he wasjust talking about Lenny or was Lenny the
(49:52):
why Lenny? No, because he'stalking. He's talking about the dad Lenny.
His name is Dad, Yes,and he's I'm sure he's talking about
Ny talking Nan his dad. CouldHe goes, yeah, it could,
goes because he's a gizy accountant.And he goes and then it cuts to
Elane and then it cuts back tothem, and he goes, well,
anyway, her daughter gave the ticketsto her friends, is what he says.
Her daughter. Oh okay, sohe actually said her instead of his
(50:12):
daughter. And they just ran withit. And I was just running with
it. Maybe they didn't pick itup when he said it just happened.
It's just it's even in the subtimes. He goes, well, anyway,
her daughter gave the tickets to herfriends, and then one of them wouldn't
take the cap off. Eagle eyes. And what's not sensitive is dog is
rabbit? Is doges dog? Yes, anyway, donkey is dog dog ear
Dando? Yeah, dog ear Dando. So he tells the story and you
(50:36):
think aim it as a viewer,you think she's getting caught in the lane.
Thinks so too. She's like,oh yeah, yeah about that.
Yeah. Anyway, he says hewants Elane to come to the game next
time. Oh, bring the cap. I think I'm gonna have some fun
with it. Oh, yes,that will be fun. We're now at
Nana Studio and Jerry's all smug.He is smug Jerry because he knows he's
got a got a court. SoI'm gonna actually discuss this when he discovers
(50:58):
them that she's copied the letter fromthe film or the rant from the film
and put it in her letter.I've mentioned this on one of our podcasts
in the past. Back in Primis, you remember the book Contest, The
Scary Story Contest where with a Girl. I was like, that's the fucking
book. I'm like, but Iremember, like at the time thinking it
was my one of my best mate, sisters, and I'm like, what's
(51:21):
more important my friendship with my bestfriend or winning that scooter? I think
winning the scooter is my And Iwas like, yeah, I remember being
how Jerry feels. Here is howI felt, going, well, principle,
what's your face? Guess what I'vegot for you. You're about to
fall out of your fucking chair.I took the book to the because I
(51:43):
remember telling the teacher. The teacherdidn't believe me, and I went and
found a little book at home andthroughout that desk and I'm like, read
it. Read it to the pictureDan just swaggering like a boss. Yeah,
read that, read that. Youbetter reading this book one by default,
which was fantastic. Two best wordsin the English language. And Joey's
(52:06):
about to sort of confront her asthe old couple arrived by the Cramer for
five thousand dollars, as we've learnedfrom George. As we're now in Joe's
apartment, and then they're watching thebaseball baseballs on the TV. A way
to incorporate the lane situation that's aboutto happen, he offers to sell his
painting, the one that he gotfrom the end of fifty dollars to Joey.
He's still on some one for fifty. Then they see a lane getting
thrown out on the baseball and finallywe see Cramer having dinner with the old
(52:28):
couple talking about hopping on a steamshipto Sweden. So all wrapped up there,
I'll get some stand up as wellabout the sneaking down to better seats,
which I think is my favorite standup. He's unto date the best
seasons to the starting. I'm veryexcited about that. Did you ever sneak
down to better seats at the gameand get clived by the usher? When
(52:49):
you're a kid, it doesn't matterbecause you always getting chased from out of
place anyway, So when you're anadult it's really embarrassing again, but you
have to pretend like there's some confusionput on this whole oh act, you're
looking at the tickets. I don'tunderstand how this quot have happened. Let
me see, Oh, I seethe problem. These are very good seats.
I have very bad seats. That'sthe misunderstanding. It's true, though
(53:14):
you get caught doing it, you'relike, oh really, oh sorry,
my bad. This this is thisis row ac I'm in row triple R
four. You never balls the otherside thirst seats are empty, yea,
even to me. Well, Nicolaand I did that at the Alton John
concert. I would have been liketwenty thirteen or maybe twenty fourteen, twenty
fifteen. It's the end of thegig rod Laver Arena, which is for
(53:36):
anyone overseas. That's where they playedthe Australian Open finals, the Indoor Center.
Their most concerts have played there inMelbourne, and we had floor seating,
but we're like twenty roads from thefront. So it was just like,
oh, he looks too small.And remember it was the end of
the gig. And I'm like,let's just walk up the big open aisles
to walk up and down because alot of old people there, so then
big white spaces. I was like, let's just walk into the front.
What they're gonna do like throw usout? It's the last song, Like,
(53:59):
let's just do it. And wewalked down and we stood right against
the barricade about I reckon six feetaway from Elton johnnys. He played your
song and no one threw us outand it just that was it. And
then we got to stand out andgive him like the standing ovation at the
end. It was literally I couldn'thave touched him because they had a bit
of a gap between the barrier andthe stage, but he was like literally
six feet from me, and I'mjust like, imagine if we just sat
(54:19):
in our seats, that never wouldhave happened. But we just took the
punt and he sang your song sixfeet from us. It was awesome.
That does sound very nice. Itwas very very good because I think the
chorus for your song is one ofthe best lyrics for a love song ever.
I just think it is lovely.Does it get any better than that?
Not really, No, it's theElbe's a lovely. I mean your
song is just a lovely It's oneof my favorite Elton Yeah. Yeah,
(54:39):
how wonderful life is when you're inthe world. That's just the greatest.
Like, I just can't think ofany better lines. Anyway. That is
our review of the letter. Whatdo you think, mister Davis? I
think overall I didn't see Jerry asmore so much of a negative before doing
this review, but the more I'vegone through, I'm just like Jerry was
kind of a douche in this,but so because like you have to be
able to understand from leanness perspecting.Oh yeah, yeah, I mean I
(55:02):
think it's One great thing about aboutthe show, Seinfeld is that, you
know, I was not afraid tomake Jerry or any of the characters a
bit of a dick every once ina while. I think, you know,
well, I go to prison forbeing bad people. That's true,
that's true, but it's gambles onthe fact that you find these people interesting
enough and inherently sort of likable enoughand recognizable enough that you're going to stick
(55:27):
with them even when they behaved badly. There's like, oh, you know,
I want that behavior sucks, butI think I might have done that
once or twice. Yes, allright, guys, hope you enjoyed our
