Shout out to all the post-911 kids like me who will never be able to forget a single lyric of “proud to be an American” because the entirety of 2002/3 was being forced into performing it through school.
Oaf that's rough. As an elder Millennial who watched 9/11 in my college dorm room commons; I/we rolled our eyes at the obvious patriotic propaganda that we all knew would lead to nationalism and most likely fascism. None of us were surprised when the Patriot Act rolled out, and (if you were a "minority") watched The Wire and noted all the ways our rights would be violated IRL. I considered myself "the young people", and forgot that there wasn't even younger generation being brainwashed in school. Man my generation's Murica war was Gulf Storm, and we got trading cards of weapons systems. I couldn't imagine being forced to sing some patriotic song. We barely sang that War of 1812 song we all call the national anthem.
wow I did not realize this was a shared experience lol me and 3 other blue eyed blonde girls performing it as the finale for our elementary school talent show is the closest I ever got to being a hitler youth... too close for comfort, frankly
@@ambylam That's a scary accurate description. I remember sitting around campus discussing the events and thinking well we're (the US) going to lose our minds shortly. I also remember thinking how will New York square Islamaphobia with the Muslim run taxi/limo hole. We laughed at the idea of all the execs and big wigs using public transportation.
Yooooo as a 2001 baby, this unlocked a subconscious memory. It disappeared by the time I hit middle school but early elementary was like on the regular
"When I'm on stage, there's no part of me that gives a shit about making people's day better" Russell is literally the worst at marketing himself as an entertainer and that's exactly why he's my favorite part of the podcast
Lol I love Brittany in this podcast. The thing about "you're good" is that it's VERY common in the south, and it's not used to mean , specifically, are good, but it's more like "you don't need to apologize, it's not an issue." I really enjoyed her on here. Russell is definitely the backbone. When he's missing, it's not the same. Not diminishing Gianmarco any any way (you're absolutely great). Russell just feels like the soul :D
People say this and don’t mean it all the time tho. So I think it often means “I’m done with this interaction” not “that doesn’t bother me” ya know? Which is fine btw, it’s their prerogative to be done with the interaction but I don’t like the phrase personally. (But sometimes I think people really do mean “it’s fine”) Hope that made sense lol
@@weesh4645 That's removing all of the context of the situation. No one says "you're good" and not mean it, to actually mean "I'm done with this interaction" when someone doesn't hold the door for them and apologize. She specifically used as an example when she's unaware someone was coming through the doorway and she apologized for not holding the door and they say "you're good." It never means "I'm done with this interaction" nor do they not mean it because it's overall not a serious thing to be bothered about, hence, "you're good." Then to say "all good" is fine when it means the same thing based on the situation isn't being consistent, although she said it's more a semantic thing, and not necessarily the idea or intent behind it, so she's not even talking about people not meaning it or using it while thinking "I'm done with this interaction" or similar.
I really wasn’t a fan of her weird, pedantic take on that. She already wasn’t making a good impression in the episode and managed to tank it even further
Oh man, as a French person, I didn't know you guys were aware about the comedian Gad. He indeed was called out by other comedians to have stolen a LOT of jokes, entire stuff from americans. Kinda made us laugh to see him go to America to perform next. Back to the roots kinda. And loving your show and your jokes dude ! And wonderful guest here !
I remember when I was living in South Korea and my job was paying for my housing but I had to stay in a hotel for the first two nights while my apartment was being made ready. And they unknowingly put me in a love motel. And I’ve been scarred ever since.
Gianmarco is still holding onto that fantasy where the audience wonders who the guest is by their voice even though everyone sees it in the title when they click on the episode...
30:00 Guys, that's basically Freud's concept of "castration". Apparently some kids w penis have a fear of loosing it (because they think some girls lost theirs). Maybe the animation tried to illustrate this (and show that they would be fine).
Sorry to break it to you, but fish are much more intelligent and capable of suffering than we tend to think. Fish get killed by suffocation, which takes a while and is pretty gruesome. We just assume that the way the world works can't be as horrible as it turns out when you question it, look at reality and get disillusioned from the advertisement facade. Again, sorry for the bad news.
I had a pet fish that lived for 6 1/2 years (avg lifespan for his species is 5) and I second this. He got a tumor or something when he was older and it was creating pressure on his organs, so I had to hand feed him peas every day, bc the pressure made anything with less fiber fuck up his swimming, and he would get stuck places. As soon as I was hand feeding him peas he got much more comfortable with me and he would follow me in his tank as I did chores in the kitchen. He would also play with ping pong balls that we put in the water, push em around just for fun. It was really rough when he died. He had some kind of something that looked like choking, it was a very violent death with a lot of thrashing. I ended up holding him with a net so he wouldn't scrape himself on the tank decor as he thrashed. I've had other fish who got injured one way or another and they actively act messed up until they get better. The schooling ones will go off alone from the school and twitch and struggle to eat until their sickness/injury is healed. I think the way our society treats them as disposable means people don't try to care for them when they get sick/hurt, so they don't even spend enough time to notice the suffering or the way it reads with a fish's body language.
@@twistysunshinewow your mindful way of looking at the fish explains so much about how humans miss in plain sight… fish tank is pretty cool to look at follow instructions and look at the fish and it's decor... Observation and seeing the structure of the school is cool. Never considered the fish who are caught and drowned for us to eat. 😮 not that it will stop me eating it but certainly giving me a appreciation for it that I didn't take in before We humans don't do this very often the more you think… alien life probably not in space it's in the sea.…. 🐙
1:10:25 - and everyone clapped 😅 1:11:10 - low key, i think russell has enough soul to hit that 1:20:20 - stevie wonders bday song doesnt use names, but the basic birthday song could lose the name too
lol gets her water, rolls it underneath the couch, proceeds to blame on adhd and gaslights Russell to scapegoat 😂😂😂😂😂 lol this is the funniest podcast ever.
It’s a pet peeve when someone doesn’t acknowledge me holding the door for them, if they don’t say thanks I’ll say your welcome very loud to make them feel like a douche
Don't you ever do crowdwork as a headliner on Algonquin territory again Gianmarco, i will find my tomahawk if you do, i was raised by a bad ass Mohawk family, the Oka Crisis is my Woodstock.
i heckled him irl sorry Gigi, you were superb but the opener and middle performer already proved how juiceless the front row was, i was frustrated for the show i paid to see to begin. tickets didn't say boring lukewarm local comedians and then Gianmarco.
Jackie Kashian opened for Maria Bamford here and that was so great because i hadn't really known her work and then bought tickets to like 12 of her zoom shows over lockdown when comedians were trying to keep the lights on.
She must have left Japan when she was really young. I mean, I studied in Japan for a year, and they do NOT sing the birthday song in English with a cringy accent.
You're fetishizing Japanese culture a little here, Gianmarco, and more generally you run the risk of coming across as a performative leftist poser, rather than a true leftist. I am a big fan (genuinely), but I feel like maybe this needs pointing out to you from another person on the left.

Just when I got over the sashimi rider, Gianmarco says he leaves it out not in the fridge !! 😮
He is *wild* for that.
Absolutely crazy. Next he's gonna say he takes it home after sitting at room temp all night 😂
Then we’ll hear he’s sick the day after mysteriously
Okay but Russel does ground this whole podcast for me and when he's not on it's not the same!
I remember when I was living in South Korea and my job was paying for my housing but I had to stay in a hotel for the first two nights while my apartment was being made ready. And they unknowingly put me in a love motel. And I’ve been scarred ever since.
She’s so cool! She has a really confident, grounded energy. Great episode

This was great! On my way to check out Brittany's special now 😄
Had to come back to say that I watched it and it's as amazing as I'd hoped 😂❤
Omg the "Wade in the Water" annecdote is too funny 🤣😬

She's so cool I've watched this episode twice
You guys really know how to spoil your guests with those mini water bottles, what is that a shot of H20???
Step it up fellas
She must have left Japan when she was really young. I mean, I studied in Japan for a year, and they do NOT sing the birthday song in English with a cringy accent.
I don't know about the accent, but she said that she lived in Japan from birth until she was a teenager and then studied there again during college
