[00:01:39] In honor of this specific holiday,
[00:01:43] I put together this extra long episode for you today
[00:01:45] consistent of three episodes of Fall Asleep with Henrik put together
[00:01:54] so you get extra long time to fall asleep.
[00:01:58] So with that said,
[00:02:03] let's start off with the first episode
[00:02:07] and
[00:02:08] Merry Christmas.
[00:02:12] Hi and welcome to Fall Asleep with Henrik.
[00:02:16] I'm Henrik
[00:02:18] and
[00:02:19] you are sleepy and
[00:02:23] it is what it is.
[00:02:26] What happens happens
[00:02:27] and right now
[00:02:30] there is nothing
[00:02:31] we can do about it.
[00:02:36] So let's go.
[00:02:40] Hi there sleepy.
[00:02:43] How are you?
[00:02:46] I'm fine.
[00:02:47] Thank you for asking.
[00:02:48] I'm
[00:02:50] sitting in my studio
[00:02:52] as always
[00:02:55] having problems
[00:02:58] starting this
[00:03:00] podcast that
[00:03:01] is meant for you to fall asleep.
[00:03:03] I know there's
[00:03:05] there's a lot of other
[00:03:07] sleep aid
[00:03:09] oriented
[00:03:10] podcasts
[00:03:11] out there
[00:03:12] but most of them
[00:03:13] and I say most of them
[00:03:15] well knowing that
[00:03:17] not every one of them
[00:03:20] is
[00:03:22] structured in
[00:03:23] a different way than
[00:03:25] this podcast.
[00:03:28] Most of them
[00:03:29] are structured in a way
[00:03:31] that are purely meant
[00:03:33] for you to be
[00:03:34] lulled to sleep
[00:03:35] in a very traditional way
[00:03:38] like
[00:03:40] bedtime stories
[00:03:41] for
[00:03:42] children or
[00:03:43] for grown-ups
[00:03:45] or
[00:03:46] meditation
[00:03:46] or relaxation
[00:03:47] techniques.
[00:03:49] This
[00:03:50] is
[00:03:51] not that
[00:03:52] kind of podcast.
[00:03:55] This is
[00:03:56] more
[00:03:58] in line with
[00:03:59] if any
[00:04:01] the
[00:04:02] very popular
[00:04:04] sleep podcast
[00:04:05] sleep with me
[00:04:06] that
[00:04:08] Skur
[00:04:09] does
[00:04:11] I would
[00:04:12] I can
[00:04:14] recommend that
[00:04:15] well
[00:04:16] that is of course
[00:04:17] not necessary
[00:04:18] for me to
[00:04:19] recommend that
[00:04:20] podcast since
[00:04:21] that is actually
[00:04:22] a very
[00:04:23] successful
[00:04:24] podcast
[00:04:24] you don't need
[00:04:25] my
[00:04:26] recommendation
[00:04:26] but
[00:04:29] he is
[00:04:30] well I guess
[00:04:31] he is
[00:04:32] most
[00:04:35] he
[00:04:35] the podcast
[00:04:37] for sleep
[00:04:38] with me
[00:04:38] is the
[00:04:39] most
[00:04:41] like mine
[00:04:43] in the
[00:04:44] podcast
[00:04:45] universe
[00:04:46] but
[00:04:47] this is
[00:04:47] something
[00:04:48] purely
[00:04:49] made out
[00:04:51] of my own
[00:04:51] mind
[00:04:53] I am
[00:04:54] no expert
[00:04:55] in
[00:04:56] sleeping
[00:04:57] techniques
[00:04:58] or
[00:04:58] relaxation
[00:04:59] or visualization
[00:05:01] techniques
[00:05:02] I am
[00:05:03] from Sweden
[00:05:04] I don't
[00:05:04] speak
[00:05:04] very well
[00:05:05] I don't
[00:05:06] speak
[00:05:07] English
[00:05:07] very well
[00:05:07] although
[00:05:08] some
[00:05:09] say
[00:05:09] I do
[00:05:09] but I
[00:05:12] I am
[00:05:13] very
[00:05:13] aware
[00:05:14] of my
[00:05:14] own
[00:05:15] shortcomings
[00:05:17] regarding
[00:05:18] the language
[00:05:22] as I've
[00:05:23] said many
[00:05:24] times
[00:05:24] before
[00:05:24] I do
[00:05:24] this in
[00:05:25] Swedish
[00:05:25] 10 times
[00:05:28] a month
[00:05:30] and
[00:05:31] have been
[00:05:31] doing so
[00:05:32] since
[00:05:33] 2018
[00:05:33] putting
[00:05:34] Swedes
[00:05:35] Norwegians
[00:05:36] Finnish
[00:05:37] people
[00:05:38] Danes
[00:05:39] and
[00:05:40] Swedish
[00:05:40] people
[00:05:41] all around
[00:05:42] the world
[00:05:42] to sleep
[00:05:44] for
[00:05:45] six years
[00:05:46] now
[00:05:49] and
[00:05:50] that's my
[00:05:51] income
[00:05:52] that's my
[00:05:53] job
[00:05:53] you could
[00:05:55] have
[00:05:55] worse
[00:05:56] jobs
[00:06:00] so
[00:06:01] anyway
[00:06:01] you don't
[00:06:02] have to
[00:06:02] listen to
[00:06:03] my
[00:06:03] words
[00:06:05] I
[00:06:05] share
[00:06:06] that
[00:06:06] with
[00:06:06] the
[00:06:06] sleep
[00:06:07] with
[00:06:07] me
[00:06:07] podcast
[00:06:08] you
[00:06:08] don't
[00:06:09] have
[00:06:09] to
[00:06:09] listen
[00:06:09] to
[00:06:09] what
[00:06:10] I
[00:06:10] say
[00:06:10] let
[00:06:10] me
[00:06:10] just
[00:06:11] speak
[00:06:11] and
[00:06:12] I
[00:06:12] will
[00:06:14] well
[00:06:15] a
[00:06:16] common
[00:06:16] misconception
[00:06:17] about
[00:06:17] this
[00:06:18] type
[00:06:18] of
[00:06:19] insomnia
[00:06:19] relief
[00:06:21] technique
[00:06:21] is that
[00:06:22] I'm
[00:06:22] trying to
[00:06:23] bore
[00:06:23] you
[00:06:23] to
[00:06:23] sleep
[00:06:24] but
[00:06:24] I'm
[00:06:25] not
[00:06:25] actually
[00:06:27] I am
[00:06:27] trying
[00:06:28] my
[00:06:28] best
[00:06:28] to
[00:06:29] entertain
[00:06:29] you
[00:06:29] but
[00:06:30] since
[00:06:31] I
[00:06:31] don't
[00:06:31] prepare
[00:06:32] anything
[00:06:32] edit
[00:06:33] anything
[00:06:34] remove
[00:06:35] stuff
[00:06:36] you know
[00:06:37] restructure
[00:06:38] stuff
[00:06:39] I
[00:06:40] can't
[00:06:41] it's
[00:06:42] almost
[00:06:42] impossible
[00:06:42] for me
[00:06:43] to
[00:06:43] succeed
[00:06:45] in
[00:06:46] my
[00:06:46] trying
[00:06:47] to
[00:06:47] entertain
[00:06:48] you
[00:06:48] like
[00:06:48] in
[00:06:49] a
[00:06:49] professional
[00:06:50] way
[00:06:50] since
[00:06:51] that's
[00:06:51] my
[00:06:52] job
[00:06:52] in a
[00:06:52] way
[00:06:53] I'm
[00:06:54] an
[00:06:54] actor
[00:06:54] and
[00:06:55] I
[00:06:55] I
[00:06:56] am
[00:06:57] trained
[00:06:57] in
[00:06:58] entertaining
[00:06:58] and
[00:07:00] performing
[00:07:01] I am
[00:07:04] actually a
[00:07:04] trained
[00:07:05] actor
[00:07:06] this
[00:07:07] I
[00:07:08] don't
[00:07:08] know
[00:07:09] how
[00:07:09] much
[00:07:10] of my
[00:07:10] training
[00:07:11] is
[00:07:11] applied
[00:07:12] in
[00:07:13] this
[00:07:14] my
[00:07:14] new
[00:07:14] line
[00:07:14] of
[00:07:14] work
[00:07:15] it
[00:07:16] was
[00:07:16] a
[00:07:16] long
[00:07:16] time
[00:07:17] ago
[00:07:17] since
[00:07:17] I
[00:07:17] stood
[00:07:18] on
[00:07:18] a
[00:07:18] stage
[00:07:21] I
[00:07:22] guess
[00:07:22] that
[00:07:22] was
[00:07:24] 2022
[00:07:27] or
[00:07:27] maybe
[00:07:28] 2023
[00:07:30] I
[00:07:30] don't
[00:07:30] remember
[00:07:31] well
[00:07:33] it
[00:07:34] was
[00:07:34] long
[00:07:34] time
[00:07:35] ago
[00:07:35] anyway
[00:07:35] and I
[00:07:38] don't
[00:07:38] really
[00:07:38] miss
[00:07:39] it
[00:07:39] that
[00:07:40] much
[00:07:40] many
[00:07:43] people
[00:07:43] ask
[00:07:44] me
[00:07:44] are
[00:07:44] you
[00:07:44] done
[00:07:44] with
[00:07:45] acting
[00:07:45] now
[00:07:47] and
[00:07:48] I
[00:07:48] always
[00:07:49] answer
[00:07:49] no
[00:07:49] of
[00:07:49] course
[00:07:50] not
[00:07:50] why
[00:07:50] why
[00:07:51] I
[00:07:52] mean
[00:07:52] that
[00:07:52] would
[00:07:52] be
[00:08:15] are
[00:08:16] heading
[00:08:16] right
[00:08:16] into
[00:08:17] a
[00:08:17] ditch
[00:08:17] somewhere
[00:08:18] you
[00:08:19] don't
[00:08:19] know
[00:08:22] but
[00:08:23] I
[00:08:23] don't
[00:08:24] miss
[00:08:24] being
[00:08:25] on
[00:08:25] stage
[00:08:26] that
[00:08:27] much
[00:08:27] I
[00:08:30] miss
[00:08:30] being
[00:08:31] in
[00:08:32] front
[00:08:32] of
[00:08:32] the
[00:08:32] camera
[00:08:33] it's
[00:08:34] not
[00:08:34] the
[00:08:34] same
[00:08:34] doing
[00:08:35] it
[00:08:35] yourself
[00:08:35] on
[00:08:35] YouTube
[00:08:36] and
[00:08:36] other
[00:08:37] social
[00:08:37] media
[00:08:38] it's
[00:08:39] not
[00:08:39] the
[00:08:39] same
[00:08:40] when
[00:08:41] you're
[00:08:41] filming
[00:08:41] something
[00:08:42] you're
[00:08:42] a part
[00:08:42] of
[00:08:42] this
[00:08:43] huge
[00:08:44] group
[00:08:44] of
[00:08:44] people
[00:08:45] that
[00:08:45] are
[00:08:47] working
[00:08:47] towards
[00:08:48] a
[00:08:48] common
[00:08:48] goal
[00:08:49] centered
[00:08:50] around
[00:08:51] a
[00:08:51] hopefully
[00:08:52] good
[00:08:53] piece
[00:08:55] of
[00:08:55] narrative
[00:08:56] a good
[00:08:56] story
[00:08:58] that's
[00:08:59] not
[00:08:59] always
[00:09:00] the case
[00:09:00] though
[00:09:02] sometimes
[00:09:02] when you
[00:09:03] film
[00:09:03] when you
[00:09:04] do
[00:09:11] and
[00:09:11] everyone
[00:09:12] knows
[00:09:12] everyone
[00:09:13] working
[00:09:13] with it
[00:09:14] knows
[00:09:14] that
[00:09:14] this
[00:09:14] is
[00:09:15] going
[00:09:15] to
[00:09:15] turn
[00:09:15] out
[00:09:15] to
[00:09:16] be
[00:09:16] shit
[00:09:17] and
[00:09:19] we're
[00:09:19] laughing
[00:09:20] you know
[00:09:20] while
[00:09:21] doing
[00:09:21] it
[00:09:24] but
[00:09:25] then
[00:09:25] again
[00:09:25] you can
[00:09:26] be
[00:09:26] proven
[00:09:27] wrong
[00:09:28] I
[00:09:29] have
[00:09:29] worked
[00:09:29] on
[00:09:30] like
[00:09:31] many
[00:09:31] productions
[00:09:32] where
[00:09:33] I
[00:09:33] thought
[00:09:33] that
[00:09:33] this
[00:09:34] is
[00:09:34] going
[00:09:34] to
[00:09:34] turn
[00:09:35] out
[00:09:35] to
[00:09:35] be
[00:09:35] really
[00:09:35] good
[00:09:36] and
[00:09:36] then
[00:09:36] I
[00:09:37] saw
[00:09:37] the
[00:09:37] final
[00:09:38] result
[00:09:39] and
[00:09:39] I
[00:09:39] I'm
[00:09:40] just
[00:09:40] I want
[00:09:41] to
[00:09:41] be
[00:09:42] swallowed
[00:09:42] by
[00:09:43] the
[00:09:43] earth
[00:09:44] beneath
[00:09:45] me
[00:09:45] because
[00:09:46] I'm
[00:09:46] so
[00:09:46] shamed
[00:09:47] so
[00:09:50] you
[00:09:50] never
[00:09:50] know
[00:09:51] you
[00:09:52] know
[00:09:52] and
[00:09:53] sometimes
[00:09:53] you
[00:09:54] do
[00:09:54] stuff
[00:09:54] that
[00:09:54] feels
[00:09:55] not
[00:09:56] particularly
[00:09:57] good
[00:09:57] and
[00:10:00] then
[00:10:00] it
[00:10:00] turns
[00:10:00] out
[00:10:01] to
[00:10:01] be
[00:10:01] like
[00:10:01] this
[00:10:02] really
[00:10:02] good
[00:10:02] piece
[00:10:03] piece
[00:10:03] art
[00:10:04] so
[00:10:07] you
[00:10:07] never
[00:10:07] know
[00:10:08] nor
[00:10:08] should
[00:10:08] you
[00:10:09] know
[00:10:10] because
[00:10:10] it's
[00:10:10] all in
[00:10:11] the
[00:10:11] eyes
[00:10:11] of
[00:10:11] the
[00:10:12] audience
[00:10:12] I
[00:10:12] guess
[00:10:12] so
[00:10:18] I'm
[00:10:18] going
[00:10:18] to
[00:10:18] talk
[00:10:19] for
[00:10:19] an
[00:10:19] hour
[00:10:19] here
[00:10:20] and
[00:10:21] just
[00:10:21] speak
[00:10:22] whatever
[00:10:22] is
[00:10:22] on
[00:10:23] my
[00:10:23] mind
[00:10:23] I
[00:10:24] tend
[00:10:24] to
[00:10:25] dwell
[00:10:26] on
[00:10:26] stuff
[00:10:26] that's
[00:10:27] personal
[00:10:27] to
[00:10:27] me
[00:10:28] I
[00:10:29] tend
[00:10:29] to
[00:10:31] talk
[00:10:33] about
[00:10:33] especially
[00:10:34] in my
[00:10:34] English
[00:10:34] speaking
[00:10:35] podcast
[00:10:36] this
[00:10:37] one
[00:10:39] I
[00:10:40] tend
[00:10:40] to
[00:10:40] speak
[00:10:40] a lot
[00:10:41] about
[00:10:41] myself
[00:10:42] and
[00:10:42] my
[00:10:42] own
[00:10:42] world
[00:10:43] and
[00:10:43] my
[00:10:43] own
[00:10:43] life
[00:10:44] that's
[00:10:45] because
[00:10:45] I
[00:10:46] find
[00:10:46] it
[00:10:47] harder
[00:10:48] to
[00:10:48] tell
[00:10:49] stories
[00:10:49] and
[00:10:52] figmental
[00:10:54] pieces
[00:10:55] of
[00:10:57] narrative
[00:10:57] that
[00:11:00] I
[00:11:01] do
[00:11:01] a lot
[00:11:01] in
[00:11:01] Swedish
[00:11:02] in my
[00:11:02] Swedish
[00:11:02] equivalent
[00:11:03] to this
[00:11:03] podcast
[00:11:04] I
[00:11:04] don't
[00:11:06] I
[00:11:08] don't
[00:11:08] really
[00:11:08] find
[00:11:09] it
[00:11:09] that
[00:11:10] easy
[00:11:10] I
[00:11:11] have
[00:11:11] tried
[00:11:11] a
[00:11:12] few
[00:11:12] times
[00:11:13] in
[00:11:13] this
[00:11:13] podcast
[00:11:13] to
[00:11:14] just
[00:11:14] tell
[00:11:15] pure
[00:11:16] fictional
[00:11:17] stories
[00:11:19] and
[00:11:20] they
[00:11:21] turn out
[00:11:22] alright
[00:11:22] I guess
[00:11:23] but it's
[00:11:23] harder
[00:11:24] and
[00:11:24] it
[00:11:25] takes
[00:11:26] like
[00:11:27] a bit
[00:11:28] of
[00:11:28] courage
[00:11:28] for my
[00:11:29] end
[00:11:31] and
[00:11:32] I
[00:11:32] don't
[00:11:33] always
[00:11:33] possess
[00:11:34] that
[00:11:34] courage
[00:11:34] so
[00:11:35] today
[00:11:35] okay
[00:11:36] just
[00:11:36] because
[00:11:36] I
[00:11:38] said
[00:11:39] so
[00:11:39] I
[00:11:40] am
[00:11:40] going
[00:11:40] to
[00:11:40] force
[00:11:41] myself
[00:11:41] to
[00:11:41] tell
[00:11:42] you
[00:11:42] a
[00:11:42] purely
[00:11:43] fictional
[00:11:43] story
[00:11:44] today
[00:11:45] but
[00:11:45] I
[00:11:46] will
[00:11:46] also
[00:11:48] interrupt
[00:11:49] this
[00:11:50] story
[00:11:50] with
[00:11:50] personal
[00:11:52] segments
[00:11:53] from my
[00:11:54] own life
[00:11:54] and my
[00:11:55] own
[00:11:55] experiences
[00:11:56] as is
[00:11:57] always the
[00:11:58] case when
[00:11:59] I do
[00:11:59] stuff
[00:12:01] I
[00:12:01] always
[00:12:02] mix
[00:12:03] private
[00:12:04] and
[00:12:04] personal
[00:12:04] experiences
[00:12:06] into
[00:12:07] my
[00:12:07] stories
[00:12:08] or
[00:12:09] made
[00:12:10] up
[00:12:10] worlds
[00:12:11] so
[00:12:14] this
[00:12:14] story
[00:12:15] is
[00:12:15] about
[00:12:15] this
[00:12:16] old
[00:12:18] lady
[00:12:18] called
[00:12:19] nanny
[00:12:20] and
[00:12:21] she's
[00:12:22] living
[00:12:22] in
[00:12:22] a
[00:12:22] hut
[00:12:23] near
[00:12:24] a
[00:12:24] river
[00:12:25] and
[00:12:26] every
[00:12:26] day
[00:12:27] she
[00:12:27] looks
[00:12:27] out
[00:12:28] over
[00:12:29] the
[00:12:29] river
[00:12:29] and
[00:12:29] she
[00:12:30] sees
[00:12:30] that
[00:12:31] nothing
[00:12:31] has
[00:12:32] changed
[00:12:32] the
[00:12:35] river
[00:12:35] just
[00:12:35] flows
[00:12:36] from
[00:12:36] one
[00:12:37] direction
[00:12:37] to
[00:12:37] the
[00:12:38] other
[00:12:39] or
[00:12:39] rather
[00:12:40] the
[00:12:41] river
[00:12:41] just
[00:12:41] flows
[00:12:42] in
[00:12:42] one
[00:12:42] direction
[00:12:44] is
[00:12:45] maybe
[00:12:45] the
[00:12:46] proper
[00:12:46] way
[00:12:46] to
[00:12:46] say
[00:12:48] this
[00:12:50] and
[00:12:52] every
[00:12:52] day
[00:12:53] is
[00:12:54] in
[00:12:55] that
[00:12:55] manner
[00:12:56] the
[00:12:57] same
[00:12:57] the
[00:12:58] trees
[00:12:59] on the
[00:13:00] opposite
[00:13:00] side
[00:13:00] of
[00:13:00] the
[00:13:01] river
[00:13:01] it's
[00:13:01] not
[00:13:01] a
[00:13:01] very
[00:13:02] big
[00:13:02] river
[00:13:02] it's
[00:13:02] like
[00:13:04] 10
[00:13:04] or
[00:13:05] 15
[00:13:05] meters
[00:13:05] across
[00:13:06] so
[00:13:08] she
[00:13:09] lives
[00:13:09] by
[00:13:12] creek
[00:13:15] and
[00:13:20] well
[00:13:21] the
[00:13:23] vegetation
[00:13:23] around
[00:13:24] the
[00:13:24] river
[00:13:25] are
[00:13:25] these
[00:13:26] large
[00:13:27] trees
[00:13:30] with
[00:13:32] an
[00:13:33] accumulated
[00:13:34] age
[00:13:34] of
[00:13:35] thousands
[00:13:36] and
[00:13:36] thousands
[00:13:36] of
[00:13:37] years
[00:13:37] old
[00:13:37] and
[00:13:39] she's
[00:13:39] also
[00:13:40] old
[00:13:42] but
[00:13:43] not
[00:13:44] old
[00:13:44] in
[00:13:46] the
[00:13:46] same
[00:13:46] way
[00:13:47] Greenland
[00:13:48] shark
[00:13:48] can
[00:13:49] be
[00:13:50] old
[00:13:53] is
[00:13:54] it
[00:13:54] called
[00:13:54] Greenland
[00:13:55] shark
[00:13:55] or
[00:13:55] is
[00:13:56] it
[00:13:56] the
[00:13:56] Greenland
[00:13:56] whale
[00:13:57] in
[00:14:00] Swedish
[00:14:00] we
[00:14:00] say
[00:14:00] Grönlands
[00:14:01] val
[00:14:02] but
[00:14:03] I've
[00:14:03] heard
[00:14:03] somewhere
[00:14:04] that
[00:14:04] the
[00:14:04] Greenland
[00:14:05] shark
[00:14:06] is
[00:14:07] the
[00:14:07] proper
[00:14:09] title
[00:14:11] anyway
[00:14:11] I
[00:14:12] read
[00:14:12] somewhere
[00:14:13] that
[00:14:13] they
[00:14:20] 150
[00:14:20] 500
[00:14:21] years
[00:14:22] old
[00:14:24] that
[00:14:25] means
[00:14:25] that
[00:14:26] there
[00:14:26] are
[00:14:26] Greenland
[00:14:27] sharks
[00:14:27] swimming
[00:14:28] in the
[00:14:28] deep
[00:14:29] cold
[00:14:29] depths
[00:14:31] right
[00:14:32] now
[00:14:32] that
[00:14:33] were
[00:14:34] alive
[00:14:34] during
[00:14:34] the
[00:14:35] years
[00:14:36] of
[00:14:36] William
[00:14:36] Shakespeare
[00:14:37] not
[00:14:37] even
[00:14:37] knowing
[00:14:38] about
[00:14:38] it
[00:14:40] that's
[00:14:42] amazing
[00:14:43] to me
[00:14:44] but
[00:14:45] Nanny
[00:14:46] is not
[00:14:46] that
[00:14:48] old
[00:14:48] she's
[00:14:49] 76
[00:14:50] years
[00:14:50] old
[00:14:52] and
[00:14:52] she's
[00:14:53] well
[00:14:56] she's
[00:14:56] not
[00:14:57] bored
[00:14:59] but
[00:14:59] she's
[00:15:00] seen
[00:15:00] it all
[00:15:00] you know
[00:15:03] every
[00:15:04] day
[00:15:05] is
[00:15:05] sort
[00:15:05] of
[00:15:06] the
[00:15:06] same
[00:15:06] in
[00:15:06] her
[00:15:06] world
[00:15:09] she's
[00:15:09] lived
[00:15:09] long
[00:15:10] enough
[00:15:10] to
[00:15:10] see
[00:15:10] people
[00:15:11] come
[00:15:11] and
[00:15:11] go
[00:15:13] because
[00:15:14] she
[00:15:15] has
[00:15:15] this
[00:15:17] curious
[00:15:18] thing
[00:15:18] about
[00:15:19] her
[00:15:19] and
[00:15:19] that
[00:15:20] is
[00:15:20] that
[00:15:20] she
[00:15:20] doesn't
[00:15:21] age
[00:15:21] now
[00:15:24] that's
[00:15:24] a
[00:15:38] people
[00:15:39] stopped
[00:15:39] caring
[00:15:41] really
[00:15:42] she
[00:15:43] had a
[00:15:44] family
[00:15:44] but
[00:15:45] they
[00:15:46] were
[00:15:46] all
[00:15:46] taken
[00:15:46] away
[00:15:47] from
[00:15:47] her
[00:15:47] when
[00:15:48] she
[00:15:48] was
[00:15:48] way
[00:15:48] too
[00:15:49] young
[00:15:50] and
[00:15:50] since
[00:15:51] then
[00:15:51] she's
[00:15:51] lived
[00:15:52] alone
[00:15:52] and
[00:15:52] she
[00:15:53] prefers
[00:15:53] it
[00:15:53] that
[00:15:54] way
[00:15:56] because
[00:15:57] she
[00:15:57] has
[00:15:58] this
[00:15:59] very
[00:16:00] weird
[00:16:02] trait
[00:16:03] she
[00:16:04] still
[00:16:04] looks
[00:16:05] like
[00:16:05] she's
[00:16:06] 20
[00:16:07] but
[00:16:09] she's
[00:16:09] 76
[00:16:10] and
[00:16:13] she
[00:16:17] has
[00:16:18] some
[00:16:19] sort
[00:16:20] of
[00:16:20] accumulated
[00:16:21] wealth
[00:16:21] she
[00:16:22] started
[00:16:22] saving
[00:16:23] at
[00:16:23] an
[00:16:24] early
[00:16:24] age
[00:16:24] and
[00:16:25] that
[00:16:27] money
[00:16:27] has
[00:16:28] now
[00:16:28] accumulated
[00:16:29] to
[00:16:29] a
[00:16:29] sum
[00:16:30] that
[00:16:30] she's
[00:16:31] able
[00:16:32] to
[00:16:32] live
[00:16:32] off
[00:16:32] each
[00:16:34] month
[00:16:34] so
[00:16:35] she
[00:16:35] hasn't
[00:16:35] a
[00:16:36] real
[00:16:36] she
[00:16:37] hasn't
[00:16:37] ever
[00:16:38] really
[00:16:38] had
[00:16:38] a
[00:16:39] real
[00:16:39] job
[00:16:40] she
[00:16:41] had
[00:16:41] this
[00:16:43] she's
[00:16:43] had
[00:16:43] this
[00:16:44] she
[00:16:45] led
[00:16:45] a
[00:16:45] life
[00:16:46] of
[00:16:46] you
[00:16:47] know
[00:16:48] living
[00:16:48] off
[00:16:48] the
[00:16:48] land
[00:16:49] she
[00:16:50] owns
[00:16:50] this
[00:16:50] little
[00:16:51] piece
[00:16:51] of
[00:16:51] land
[00:16:52] around
[00:16:52] that
[00:16:53] very
[00:16:53] particular
[00:16:53] creek
[00:16:54] of
[00:16:54] this
[00:16:54] river
[00:16:55] I'm
[00:16:56] not
[00:16:56] going
[00:16:56] to
[00:16:56] say
[00:16:56] where
[00:16:57] this
[00:16:57] river
[00:16:57] is
[00:16:58] because
[00:16:58] then
[00:16:59] you
[00:16:59] will
[00:16:59] just
[00:16:59] want
[00:16:59] to
[00:16:59] go
[00:17:00] there
[00:17:00] and
[00:17:00] disturb
[00:17:01] her
[00:17:01] because
[00:17:02] she's
[00:17:02] still
[00:17:02] alive
[00:17:03] the
[00:17:07] fact
[00:17:07] is
[00:17:07] that
[00:17:08] Nanny
[00:17:09] can't
[00:17:09] die
[00:17:10] she's
[00:17:11] immortal
[00:17:12] and
[00:17:13] before
[00:17:14] you
[00:17:14] run
[00:17:14] off
[00:17:14] climbing
[00:17:15] the
[00:17:16] church
[00:17:16] tower
[00:17:17] just
[00:17:17] yelling
[00:17:17] out
[00:17:18] over
[00:17:18] the
[00:17:18] county
[00:17:19] that
[00:17:19] this
[00:17:20] is an
[00:17:21] illogical
[00:17:22] story
[00:17:22] people
[00:17:23] can't
[00:17:24] just
[00:17:24] go
[00:17:24] around
[00:17:25] being
[00:17:25] immortal
[00:17:26] let
[00:17:27] me
[00:17:27] just
[00:17:29] give
[00:17:29] you a
[00:17:30] quick
[00:17:30] comment
[00:17:30] to
[00:17:31] that
[00:17:31] I
[00:17:31] know
[00:17:32] that
[00:17:32] this
[00:17:33] is
[00:17:33] viewed
[00:17:34] upon
[00:17:35] as
[00:17:35] impossible
[00:17:36] but
[00:17:36] in
[00:17:36] my
[00:17:36] imagination
[00:17:37] right
[00:17:37] now
[00:17:38] immortality
[00:17:39] is
[00:17:39] possible
[00:17:40] but
[00:17:40] for
[00:17:41] one
[00:17:41] person
[00:17:41] on
[00:17:43] earth
[00:17:43] and
[00:17:44] that's
[00:17:44] Nanny
[00:17:46] so
[00:17:46] she
[00:17:47] has
[00:17:47] some
[00:17:47] sort
[00:17:47] of
[00:17:48] genetic
[00:17:48] traits
[00:17:48] that
[00:17:49] permits
[00:17:50] her
[00:17:52] and
[00:17:53] that
[00:17:54] includes
[00:17:54] dying
[00:17:55] by
[00:17:55] accidents
[00:17:56] and
[00:17:57] violence
[00:17:58] and
[00:17:59] any
[00:17:59] type
[00:18:00] of
[00:18:00] harm
[00:18:01] she
[00:18:03] simply
[00:18:03] can't
[00:18:04] perish
[00:18:06] and
[00:18:07] that
[00:18:08] at a
[00:18:09] first
[00:18:10] glance
[00:18:11] that
[00:18:11] sounds
[00:18:12] that looks
[00:18:13] like
[00:18:13] really
[00:18:14] positive
[00:18:16] you know
[00:18:16] imagine
[00:18:18] not
[00:18:20] being able
[00:18:20] to
[00:18:24] experience
[00:18:25] endings
[00:18:28] but
[00:18:28] then
[00:18:29] again
[00:18:29] that's
[00:18:30] all
[00:18:30] she
[00:18:31] ever
[00:18:31] does
[00:18:32] if
[00:18:34] you
[00:18:34] live
[00:18:34] long
[00:18:35] enough
[00:18:37] you
[00:18:37] get to
[00:18:38] see
[00:18:38] so
[00:18:38] many
[00:18:39] endings
[00:18:39] and
[00:18:40] in
[00:18:40] Nanny's
[00:18:41] case
[00:18:42] the
[00:18:43] endings
[00:18:44] are
[00:18:44] endless
[00:18:45] you know
[00:18:46] since
[00:18:47] she
[00:18:47] doesn't
[00:18:48] ever
[00:18:48] end
[00:18:49] herself
[00:18:49] she
[00:18:51] gets
[00:18:51] to
[00:18:51] see
[00:18:51] end
[00:18:52] upon
[00:18:52] end
[00:18:53] upon
[00:18:53] end
[00:18:53] of
[00:18:54] stuff
[00:18:54] and
[00:18:55] that's
[00:18:55] why
[00:18:55] she
[00:18:56] really
[00:18:56] likes
[00:18:56] it
[00:18:56] alone
[00:18:57] and
[00:18:58] she's
[00:18:59] only
[00:18:59] 76
[00:19:03] that's
[00:19:03] not
[00:19:03] an
[00:19:04] age
[00:19:04] compared
[00:19:05] to
[00:19:05] eternity
[00:19:06] or
[00:19:07] whatever
[00:19:08] time span
[00:19:09] she has
[00:19:09] because
[00:19:10] she
[00:19:10] doesn't
[00:19:11] know
[00:19:12] the
[00:19:12] doctor
[00:19:13] doesn't
[00:19:13] know
[00:19:13] what's
[00:19:14] what
[00:19:15] makes
[00:19:15] her
[00:19:16] her
[00:19:18] nobody
[00:19:19] knows
[00:19:20] and
[00:19:21] she's
[00:19:22] been
[00:19:22] sort
[00:19:22] of
[00:19:23] viewed
[00:19:24] upon
[00:19:24] as
[00:19:25] sort
[00:19:25] of
[00:19:26] a
[00:19:26] circus
[00:19:26] freak
[00:19:28] back
[00:19:29] in
[00:19:29] the
[00:19:29] day
[00:19:29] when
[00:19:30] she
[00:19:30] turned
[00:19:31] 50
[00:19:31] and
[00:19:31] still
[00:19:32] 20
[00:19:32] people
[00:19:33] looked
[00:19:34] at
[00:19:34] her
[00:19:34] as
[00:19:34] a
[00:19:34] curiosity
[00:19:35] and
[00:19:35] she
[00:19:36] was
[00:19:36] asked
[00:19:37] about
[00:19:37] her
[00:19:37] way
[00:19:37] of
[00:19:38] life
[00:19:38] and
[00:19:38] now
[00:19:39] when
[00:19:39] she
[00:19:40] turned
[00:19:40] 60
[00:19:40] people
[00:19:41] were
[00:19:41] just
[00:19:41] this
[00:19:43] isn't
[00:19:44] logical
[00:19:46] and
[00:19:46] people
[00:19:47] started
[00:19:48] to be
[00:19:48] scared
[00:19:49] and
[00:19:50] almost
[00:19:51] 80
[00:19:51] years
[00:19:52] of
[00:19:52] old
[00:19:52] 80
[00:19:53] years
[00:19:53] of
[00:19:54] age
[00:19:55] she's
[00:19:57] viewed
[00:19:57] upon
[00:19:58] as
[00:19:58] kind
[00:20:01] of
[00:20:01] scary
[00:20:02] that
[00:20:03] scary
[00:20:03] old
[00:20:03] lady
[00:20:04] that
[00:20:04] looks
[00:20:04] like
[00:20:05] a
[00:20:05] young
[00:20:05] woman
[00:20:05] living
[00:20:06] alone
[00:20:06] by
[00:20:07] the
[00:20:07] creek
[00:20:08] down
[00:20:08] river
[00:20:11] and
[00:20:13] every
[00:20:17] day
[00:20:18] she
[00:20:18] just
[00:20:21] walks
[00:20:22] out
[00:20:22] of
[00:20:22] her
[00:20:22] hut
[00:20:23] sits
[00:20:24] by
[00:20:24] the
[00:20:24] river
[00:20:26] drinking
[00:20:27] her
[00:20:27] morning
[00:20:28] tea
[00:20:28] watching
[00:20:29] the
[00:20:30] stream
[00:20:30] and
[00:20:31] the
[00:20:32] only
[00:20:32] thing
[00:20:32] that's
[00:20:33] always
[00:20:33] different
[00:20:35] the
[00:20:36] only
[00:20:36] thing
[00:20:37] in
[00:20:37] her
[00:20:37] world
[00:20:37] that's
[00:20:38] always
[00:20:38] unique
[00:20:38] and
[00:20:39] she
[00:20:40] realized
[00:20:40] that
[00:20:40] since
[00:20:41] being
[00:20:42] immortal
[00:20:43] you
[00:20:44] need
[00:20:44] like
[00:20:46] that
[00:20:47] mindset
[00:20:47] that
[00:20:48] immortal
[00:20:48] mindset
[00:20:49] to
[00:20:49] have an
[00:20:51] open
[00:20:51] mind
[00:20:52] to
[00:20:52] these
[00:20:52] sort
[00:20:52] of
[00:20:52] subtle
[00:20:53] changes
[00:20:53] and
[00:20:54] that
[00:20:54] is
[00:20:55] that
[00:20:55] the
[00:20:55] river
[00:20:55] itself
[00:20:56] carries
[00:20:57] itself
[00:20:58] with a
[00:20:58] different
[00:20:59] quality
[00:20:59] and
[00:21:00] energy
[00:21:00] every
[00:21:00] day
[00:21:01] so
[00:21:01] no
[00:21:03] day
[00:21:03] are
[00:21:04] the
[00:21:05] same
[00:21:05] as far
[00:21:08] as the
[00:21:08] river
[00:21:09] goes
[00:21:09] the river
[00:21:12] shifts
[00:21:12] like
[00:21:13] constantly
[00:21:13] and it
[00:21:15] doesn't do
[00:21:15] it in
[00:21:15] cycles
[00:21:16] like most
[00:21:17] other
[00:21:17] things
[00:21:18] seasons
[00:21:21] lifespans
[00:21:24] relationships
[00:21:28] it's
[00:21:28] always
[00:21:30] different
[00:21:30] it's
[00:21:31] almost
[00:21:31] like
[00:21:32] the river
[00:21:32] itself
[00:21:33] decides
[00:21:34] whether
[00:21:35] or not
[00:21:36] it's
[00:21:37] going to
[00:21:37] be this
[00:21:37] or that
[00:21:38] way
[00:21:39] at any
[00:21:40] given
[00:21:40] day
[00:21:41] it's
[00:21:42] like
[00:21:42] the river
[00:21:43] has a
[00:21:43] mind
[00:21:44] of its
[00:21:44] own
[00:21:45] and
[00:21:46] nanny
[00:21:46] fully
[00:21:47] believes
[00:21:47] that
[00:21:48] so
[00:21:51] every
[00:21:51] day
[00:21:52] when she
[00:21:52] comes
[00:21:52] out
[00:21:53] the
[00:21:53] hut
[00:21:54] and
[00:21:55] gazes
[00:21:55] upon
[00:21:56] the river
[00:21:57] the river
[00:21:58] has
[00:21:59] like
[00:22:00] this
[00:22:00] difference
[00:22:01] in
[00:22:02] color
[00:22:02] shape
[00:22:03] energy
[00:22:04] the
[00:22:06] stream
[00:22:06] is
[00:22:06] different
[00:22:08] and
[00:22:09] not
[00:22:10] always
[00:22:10] in a
[00:22:11] good
[00:22:11] way
[00:22:12] the river
[00:22:18] is
[00:22:19] never
[00:22:20] a good
[00:22:20] friend
[00:22:22] it's
[00:22:23] always
[00:22:25] its
[00:22:26] own
[00:22:26] you know
[00:22:26] the river
[00:22:28] doesn't
[00:22:29] care
[00:22:29] that she's
[00:22:30] there
[00:22:31] so
[00:22:32] if it
[00:22:32] wants
[00:22:33] to
[00:22:33] flood
[00:22:33] her
[00:22:33] hut
[00:22:34] it's
[00:22:35] just
[00:22:35] going
[00:22:36] to
[00:22:36] do
[00:22:36] that
[00:22:37] if
[00:22:38] it
[00:22:38] wants
[00:22:38] to
[00:22:38] be
[00:22:39] like
[00:22:39] this
[00:22:40] little
[00:22:42] stream
[00:22:42] this
[00:22:43] little
[00:22:44] what do
[00:22:45] you call
[00:22:45] it
[00:22:46] this
[00:22:47] little
[00:22:48] puddle
[00:22:49] in the
[00:22:49] middle
[00:22:49] of the
[00:22:53] flood
[00:22:54] what do
[00:22:55] you call
[00:22:55] it
[00:22:56] in
[00:22:57] Swedish
[00:22:57] we say
[00:22:57] flood
[00:22:58] foran
[00:23:00] you
[00:23:01] know
[00:23:01] the
[00:23:01] dug
[00:23:03] out
[00:23:03] ground
[00:23:04] where
[00:23:04] the
[00:23:04] river
[00:23:05] flows
[00:23:05] the
[00:23:06] river
[00:23:06] has
[00:23:06] carved
[00:23:07] this
[00:23:09] pit
[00:23:11] where
[00:23:11] it
[00:23:12] flows
[00:23:12] I don't
[00:23:13] know
[00:23:13] what
[00:23:13] you call
[00:23:14] it
[00:23:14] the
[00:23:15] banks
[00:23:17] between
[00:23:18] the
[00:23:18] banks
[00:23:18] it
[00:23:22] doesn't
[00:23:22] care
[00:23:23] and
[00:23:24] that's
[00:23:24] a
[00:23:24] fascinating
[00:23:25] thing
[00:23:25] once
[00:23:26] you've
[00:23:27] discovered
[00:23:27] it
[00:23:27] I
[00:23:28] and
[00:23:29] here
[00:23:29] it
[00:23:29] comes
[00:23:29] my
[00:23:30] own
[00:23:30] personal
[00:23:31] experience
[00:23:31] in this
[00:23:32] matter
[00:23:32] I
[00:23:33] worked
[00:23:33] for
[00:23:34] many
[00:23:34] years
[00:23:34] at
[00:23:34] this
[00:23:36] river
[00:23:39] and
[00:23:40] every
[00:23:41] day
[00:23:42] I was
[00:23:43] acting
[00:23:43] I was
[00:23:44] doing
[00:23:44] a
[00:23:44] play
[00:23:44] and
[00:23:45] the
[00:23:45] play
[00:23:45] took
[00:23:45] place
[00:23:46] outside
[00:23:46] so
[00:23:47] there
[00:23:47] was
[00:23:47] this
[00:23:48] outside
[00:23:50] large
[00:23:50] stage
[00:23:52] which
[00:23:52] was
[00:23:52] really
[00:23:53] just
[00:23:55] a
[00:23:55] grass
[00:23:56] and
[00:23:56] dirt
[00:23:56] stage
[00:23:57] you know
[00:23:57] with
[00:23:58] houses
[00:23:58] on
[00:23:58] real
[00:23:59] houses
[00:24:00] and
[00:24:00] the
[00:24:00] audience
[00:24:01] sat
[00:24:02] on
[00:24:04] chairs
[00:24:04] and
[00:24:05] benches
[00:24:05] on a
[00:24:06] hill
[00:24:07] like
[00:24:07] opposite
[00:24:08] the
[00:24:08] stage
[00:24:08] it
[00:24:09] was
[00:24:09] all
[00:24:10] just
[00:24:10] dug
[00:24:11] out
[00:24:11] from
[00:24:12] the
[00:24:12] environment
[00:24:13] and
[00:24:14] behind
[00:24:14] all
[00:24:15] the
[00:24:15] houses
[00:24:15] were
[00:24:16] this
[00:24:17] river
[00:24:20] and
[00:24:23] every
[00:24:23] day
[00:24:24] in between
[00:24:24] my
[00:24:24] scenes
[00:24:25] or
[00:24:26] before
[00:24:26] and
[00:24:27] after
[00:24:27] the
[00:24:28] play
[00:24:28] was
[00:24:28] over
[00:24:29] I
[00:24:30] sat
[00:24:30] at
[00:24:31] a
[00:24:31] folding
[00:24:32] chair
[00:24:32] and
[00:24:38] just
[00:24:39] looked
[00:24:39] at
[00:24:40] the
[00:24:40] river
[00:24:40] and
[00:24:42] it's
[00:24:43] really
[00:24:44] truly
[00:24:44] amazing
[00:24:45] what a
[00:24:45] river
[00:24:46] can do
[00:24:46] to your
[00:24:47] mind
[00:24:49] once
[00:24:50] you've
[00:24:51] looked
[00:24:51] at it
[00:24:51] for
[00:24:51] long
[00:24:52] enough
[00:24:52] it's
[00:24:53] not
[00:24:53] the
[00:24:54] same
[00:24:54] as
[00:24:54] looking
[00:24:54] at
[00:24:55] a
[00:24:56] vivid
[00:24:57] violent
[00:24:58] stream
[00:24:59] a cascade
[00:25:00] of water
[00:25:01] this
[00:25:02] river
[00:25:03] is
[00:25:03] like
[00:25:05] it
[00:25:05] looks
[00:25:06] calm
[00:25:10] steadily
[00:25:10] and
[00:25:10] slowly
[00:25:11] but
[00:25:12] I
[00:25:13] swimmed
[00:25:13] in
[00:25:14] that
[00:25:14] stream
[00:25:15] and
[00:25:16] the
[00:25:17] force
[00:25:18] is
[00:25:18] like
[00:25:19] really
[00:25:20] strong
[00:25:20] you
[00:25:21] can be
[00:25:22] drawn
[00:25:22] downstream
[00:25:23] like
[00:25:23] kilometers
[00:25:24] if
[00:25:26] you're
[00:25:26] not
[00:25:26] careful
[00:25:26] it's
[00:25:27] very
[00:25:28] hard
[00:25:28] to
[00:25:28] swim
[00:25:28] across
[00:25:29] it
[00:25:29] and
[00:25:32] every
[00:25:32] day
[00:25:33] we're
[00:25:34] like
[00:25:36] this
[00:25:37] totally
[00:25:38] unique
[00:25:38] world
[00:25:39] by
[00:25:39] the
[00:25:40] river
[00:25:40] I
[00:25:43] was
[00:25:43] only
[00:25:43] there
[00:25:43] in
[00:25:44] summertime
[00:25:44] so
[00:25:44] I
[00:25:45] don't
[00:25:45] know
[00:25:45] whether
[00:25:46] or not
[00:25:46] this
[00:25:46] applies
[00:25:48] to
[00:25:48] the
[00:25:49] winter
[00:25:49] stream
[00:25:50] as
[00:25:50] well
[00:25:52] but
[00:25:53] I
[00:25:53] could
[00:25:53] come
[00:25:53] there
[00:25:54] in
[00:25:54] the
[00:25:54] morning
[00:25:54] and
[00:25:56] there
[00:25:57] could
[00:25:57] be
[00:25:57] this
[00:25:58] cloudy
[00:26:00] thunderstorm
[00:26:00] on its
[00:26:01] way
[00:26:03] and
[00:26:04] the
[00:26:06] clouds
[00:26:06] it
[00:26:07] was
[00:26:07] almost
[00:26:08] like
[00:26:09] the
[00:26:09] clouds
[00:26:09] and
[00:26:10] the
[00:26:13] were
[00:26:13] dressed
[00:26:14] to
[00:26:14] wear
[00:26:14] today
[00:26:15] because
[00:26:16] the
[00:26:16] clouds
[00:26:16] and
[00:26:17] the
[00:26:18] river
[00:26:19] were
[00:26:19] almost
[00:26:20] identical
[00:26:21] almost
[00:26:22] every
[00:26:23] time
[00:26:23] not
[00:26:24] every
[00:26:24] time
[00:26:24] sometimes
[00:26:25] they
[00:26:25] differed
[00:26:26] like
[00:26:27] a lot
[00:26:27] and
[00:26:28] then
[00:26:28] you
[00:26:29] realized
[00:26:29] you
[00:26:30] discovered
[00:26:31] that
[00:26:32] because
[00:26:32] it was
[00:26:33] so
[00:26:34] unconventional
[00:26:35] because
[00:26:38] they were
[00:26:38] almost
[00:26:39] always
[00:26:39] hand in
[00:26:40] hand
[00:26:40] in
[00:26:41] that
[00:26:41] regard
[00:26:41] and
[00:26:42] the river
[00:26:46] could be
[00:26:47] pitch
[00:26:47] black
[00:26:48] like
[00:26:50] this
[00:26:51] little
[00:26:51] lake
[00:26:51] in a
[00:26:52] forest
[00:26:52] but
[00:26:54] constantly
[00:26:56] moving
[00:26:56] with
[00:26:57] small
[00:26:58] but
[00:26:58] extremely
[00:27:00] forceful
[00:27:01] vortexes
[00:27:03] like
[00:27:03] scattered
[00:27:05] around
[00:27:05] caused
[00:27:07] by
[00:27:08] rocks
[00:27:09] and
[00:27:09] wood
[00:27:13] floating
[00:27:13] by
[00:27:14] or
[00:27:14] being
[00:27:14] stuck
[00:27:15] at
[00:27:15] the
[00:27:15] bottom
[00:27:15] I
[00:27:20] especially
[00:27:20] liked
[00:27:21] when
[00:27:21] the river
[00:27:22] was
[00:27:22] pitch
[00:27:22] black
[00:27:24] I
[00:27:25] don't
[00:27:25] know
[00:27:25] why
[00:27:25] I
[00:27:25] I've
[00:27:26] always
[00:27:27] enjoyed
[00:27:28] pitch
[00:27:29] black
[00:27:29] stuff
[00:27:31] I'm
[00:27:32] not
[00:27:32] sure
[00:27:32] why
[00:27:33] I
[00:27:33] think
[00:27:33] it
[00:27:35] makes
[00:27:36] me
[00:27:36] feel
[00:27:37] safe
[00:27:38] I
[00:27:39] know
[00:27:40] that
[00:27:40] sounds
[00:27:41] weird
[00:27:41] but
[00:27:44] I
[00:27:44] view
[00:27:45] myself
[00:27:46] as
[00:27:46] sort
[00:27:47] of
[00:27:47] a
[00:27:47] thin
[00:27:49] layer
[00:27:50] of
[00:27:50] comprehensible
[00:27:51] stuff
[00:27:52] and then
[00:27:52] beneath
[00:27:53] it's
[00:27:54] just
[00:27:55] this
[00:27:56] black
[00:27:56] void
[00:27:57] and
[00:27:58] I'm
[00:28:01] more
[00:28:02] afraid
[00:28:02] of that
[00:28:03] void
[00:28:03] when I
[00:28:03] try to
[00:28:04] pretend
[00:28:05] like it
[00:28:06] doesn't
[00:28:06] exist
[00:28:08] whenever I
[00:28:10] say yes
[00:28:10] to that
[00:28:11] void
[00:28:11] because
[00:28:12] I
[00:28:12] believe
[00:28:13] I
[00:28:13] truly
[00:28:13] believe
[00:28:13] that
[00:28:14] we
[00:28:14] all
[00:28:14] carry
[00:28:14] that
[00:28:15] within
[00:28:15] us
[00:28:15] whenever
[00:28:16] I
[00:28:17] say
[00:28:17] yes
[00:28:19] yeah
[00:28:19] you're
[00:28:20] there
[00:28:21] hello
[00:28:22] void
[00:28:23] I
[00:28:24] feel
[00:28:25] some
[00:28:28] sort
[00:28:28] of
[00:28:28] comfort
[00:28:29] I
[00:28:29] guess
[00:28:29] so
[00:28:36] I
[00:28:36] I
[00:28:36] really
[00:28:37] love
[00:28:37] that
[00:28:37] and
[00:28:41] one
[00:28:41] day
[00:28:42] this
[00:28:43] job
[00:28:43] that I
[00:28:44] had
[00:28:44] was
[00:28:45] a
[00:28:45] very
[00:28:45] turbulent
[00:28:45] one
[00:28:46] many
[00:28:47] acting
[00:28:48] jobs
[00:28:48] especially
[00:28:49] those
[00:28:49] when
[00:28:49] you're
[00:28:50] out
[00:28:50] of
[00:28:50] town
[00:28:51] and
[00:28:52] you
[00:28:53] meet
[00:28:53] people
[00:28:53] that
[00:28:54] you
[00:28:54] get
[00:28:54] to
[00:28:54] hang
[00:28:54] out
[00:28:55] with
[00:28:55] like
[00:28:55] very
[00:28:56] intensively
[00:28:57] and
[00:28:57] frequently
[00:28:58] for a
[00:28:58] short
[00:28:59] period
[00:28:59] of
[00:28:59] time
[00:28:59] and
[00:29:00] then
[00:29:00] you
[00:29:01] go
[00:29:01] back
[00:29:01] to
[00:29:01] your
[00:29:01] normal
[00:29:02] life
[00:29:02] it's
[00:29:04] almost
[00:29:04] like
[00:29:04] you're
[00:29:05] entering
[00:29:05] this
[00:29:05] separate
[00:29:06] world
[00:29:06] and
[00:29:07] this
[00:29:08] was
[00:29:08] during
[00:29:08] my
[00:29:08] younger
[00:29:09] years
[00:29:09] so
[00:29:09] I
[00:29:11] drank
[00:29:12] a lot
[00:29:14] not
[00:29:15] like
[00:29:15] more
[00:29:16] than
[00:29:16] other
[00:29:16] people
[00:29:17] it
[00:29:17] was
[00:29:18] like
[00:29:18] this
[00:29:18] really
[00:29:19] it
[00:29:20] was
[00:29:20] a
[00:29:20] very
[00:29:20] festive
[00:29:21] atmosphere
[00:29:22] and
[00:29:23] I
[00:29:23] really
[00:29:23] enjoyed
[00:29:24] it
[00:29:24] let
[00:29:24] me
[00:29:24] just
[00:29:24] say
[00:29:25] that
[00:29:25] first
[00:29:26] but
[00:29:27] if
[00:29:28] you've
[00:29:28] listened
[00:29:29] to
[00:29:29] this
[00:29:29] podcast
[00:29:29] long
[00:29:30] enough
[00:29:30] you
[00:29:30] know
[00:29:30] that
[00:29:31] I
[00:29:31] am
[00:29:32] sober
[00:29:32] today
[00:29:33] because
[00:29:33] I
[00:29:33] discovered
[00:29:34] that
[00:29:34] I
[00:29:34] really
[00:29:35] have
[00:29:36] a
[00:29:37] personality
[00:29:37] type
[00:29:38] that
[00:29:39] doesn't
[00:29:39] go
[00:29:39] well
[00:29:40] together
[00:29:40] with
[00:29:42] alcohol
[00:29:42] or
[00:29:43] other
[00:29:44] drugs
[00:29:44] for
[00:29:44] that
[00:29:45] matter
[00:29:46] so
[00:29:48] I
[00:29:49] decided
[00:29:49] to
[00:29:49] quit
[00:29:50] before
[00:29:50] it
[00:29:51] became
[00:29:52] this
[00:29:52] huge
[00:29:53] issue
[00:29:53] for
[00:29:53] me
[00:29:54] and
[00:29:55] it's
[00:29:55] always
[00:29:56] been
[00:29:56] this
[00:29:56] on
[00:29:57] and
[00:29:57] off
[00:29:57] relationship
[00:29:58] with
[00:29:58] alcohol
[00:29:59] my
[00:30:00] whole
[00:30:00] life
[00:30:01] has
[00:30:01] been
[00:30:01] like
[00:30:02] I'm
[00:30:02] not
[00:30:02] going
[00:30:03] to
[00:30:03] touch
[00:30:03] the
[00:30:03] stuff
[00:30:03] or
[00:30:05] I
[00:30:05] want
[00:30:06] to
[00:30:06] be
[00:30:06] drunk
[00:30:07] every
[00:30:07] day
[00:30:07] kind
[00:30:08] of
[00:30:08] thing
[00:30:09] and
[00:30:10] during
[00:30:12] my
[00:30:12] during
[00:30:16] my
[00:30:17] summer
[00:30:18] months
[00:30:19] in
[00:30:20] this
[00:30:20] little
[00:30:21] village
[00:30:22] where
[00:30:24] the
[00:30:24] play
[00:30:25] was
[00:30:25] held
[00:30:26] I
[00:30:27] was
[00:30:27] on
[00:30:28] a
[00:30:28] very
[00:30:28] on
[00:30:28] phase
[00:30:30] regarding
[00:30:30] alcohol
[00:30:31] and
[00:30:33] that
[00:30:35] has
[00:30:35] never
[00:30:35] been
[00:30:35] easy
[00:30:36] for
[00:30:36] me
[00:30:36] my
[00:30:38] conscious
[00:30:38] and
[00:30:39] my
[00:30:42] hypochondria
[00:30:43] and my
[00:30:44] anxiety
[00:30:44] and stuff
[00:30:45] are being
[00:30:45] very
[00:30:52] so
[00:30:52] I
[00:30:52] had
[00:30:53] these
[00:30:54] extremely
[00:30:55] deep
[00:30:57] states
[00:30:57] of
[00:30:58] anxiety
[00:30:58] during
[00:30:59] my
[00:30:59] party
[00:31:00] days
[00:31:01] this
[00:31:03] was
[00:31:04] like
[00:31:05] 10
[00:31:06] 12
[00:31:07] years
[00:31:07] ago
[00:31:08] I
[00:31:08] guess
[00:31:08] and
[00:31:09] I'm
[00:31:12] going
[00:31:12] to
[00:31:13] return
[00:31:13] to
[00:31:13] this
[00:31:13] pitch
[00:31:14] black
[00:31:14] river
[00:31:14] in a
[00:31:15] second
[00:31:15] because
[00:31:16] this
[00:31:16] story
[00:31:16] has
[00:31:17] to
[00:31:17] do
[00:31:17] with
[00:31:17] that
[00:31:25] the
[00:31:25] river
[00:31:25] and
[00:31:25] I
[00:31:25] just
[00:31:26] looked
[00:31:26] at
[00:31:27] it
[00:31:27] and
[00:31:27] it
[00:31:27] was
[00:31:27] almost
[00:31:28] like
[00:31:28] my
[00:31:29] state
[00:31:30] of
[00:31:30] mind
[00:31:31] and
[00:31:31] the
[00:31:31] river
[00:31:31] became
[00:31:32] the
[00:31:32] same
[00:31:32] you
[00:31:33] know
[00:31:33] and
[00:31:34] it
[00:31:35] was
[00:31:35] a
[00:31:35] source
[00:31:35] of
[00:31:35] great
[00:31:36] comfort
[00:31:37] for
[00:31:37] me
[00:31:37] when
[00:31:37] the
[00:31:38] river
[00:31:38] was
[00:31:38] pitch
[00:31:38] black
[00:31:39] because
[00:31:39] I
[00:31:39] felt
[00:31:40] that
[00:31:40] I
[00:31:40] could
[00:31:41] relate
[00:31:42] to
[00:31:43] whatever
[00:31:44] was
[00:31:44] making
[00:31:44] the
[00:31:46] water
[00:31:46] pitch
[00:31:47] black
[00:31:47] you
[00:31:55] lost
[00:31:55] and
[00:31:55] homeless
[00:31:56] and
[00:31:56] depressed
[00:31:57] and
[00:31:57] also
[00:31:58] had
[00:31:58] a lot
[00:31:59] of
[00:31:59] longing
[00:31:59] and
[00:31:59] excitement
[00:32:00] and
[00:32:01] this
[00:32:02] urge
[00:32:03] for
[00:32:04] kicks
[00:32:04] and
[00:32:07] to be
[00:32:09] able
[00:32:09] to be
[00:32:09] happy
[00:32:09] about
[00:32:10] me
[00:32:10] and
[00:32:10] stuff
[00:32:11] so
[00:32:14] one
[00:32:14] day
[00:32:14] I
[00:32:15] decided
[00:32:16] that
[00:32:17] I'm
[00:32:17] done
[00:32:17] with
[00:32:18] this
[00:32:18] kind
[00:32:18] of
[00:32:18] life
[00:32:19] so
[00:32:20] over
[00:32:20] the
[00:32:20] years
[00:32:21] I
[00:32:21] had
[00:32:22] got
[00:32:23] a lot
[00:32:23] of
[00:32:24] flowers
[00:32:25] you
[00:32:26] tend
[00:32:26] to get
[00:32:26] that
[00:32:26] when
[00:32:27] you're
[00:32:27] on
[00:32:27] stage
[00:32:28] when
[00:32:29] the
[00:32:29] play
[00:32:29] is
[00:32:30] over
[00:32:30] you
[00:32:31] get
[00:32:31] flowers
[00:32:31] bouquets
[00:32:32] from
[00:32:34] either
[00:32:34] people
[00:32:34] you
[00:32:35] know
[00:32:35] coming
[00:32:35] to
[00:32:36] watch
[00:32:36] the
[00:32:36] show
[00:32:36] or
[00:32:37] the
[00:32:38] production
[00:32:38] itself
[00:32:38] as a
[00:32:39] thank
[00:32:40] you
[00:32:40] for
[00:32:41] delivering
[00:32:42] I
[00:32:42] guess
[00:32:43] and
[00:32:44] every
[00:32:44] year
[00:32:45] since
[00:32:46] this
[00:32:46] play
[00:32:46] was
[00:32:47] only
[00:32:47] held
[00:32:48] in
[00:32:48] the
[00:32:48] summers
[00:32:48] so
[00:32:49] the
[00:32:49] house
[00:32:50] where
[00:32:50] the
[00:32:50] main
[00:32:51] house
[00:32:52] on
[00:32:52] stage
[00:32:52] where
[00:32:53] we
[00:32:53] also
[00:32:54] had
[00:32:54] our
[00:32:54] dressing
[00:32:54] rooms
[00:32:55] and
[00:32:55] stuff
[00:32:55] it
[00:32:56] was
[00:32:56] just
[00:32:57] locked
[00:32:57] up
[00:32:57] for
[00:32:58] almost
[00:32:58] the
[00:32:58] entire
[00:32:59] year
[00:32:59] so
[00:33:02] I
[00:33:02] just
[00:33:02] saved
[00:33:03] the
[00:33:04] flowers
[00:33:06] whenever
[00:33:06] I was
[00:33:07] done
[00:33:07] for the
[00:33:08] year
[00:33:08] I
[00:33:08] just
[00:33:08] hang
[00:33:09] them up
[00:33:10] in my
[00:33:10] dressing
[00:33:10] room
[00:33:11] or
[00:33:11] rather
[00:33:12] it was
[00:33:12] it was not
[00:33:13] so much
[00:33:14] of a
[00:33:14] room
[00:33:14] it was
[00:33:15] more like
[00:33:15] a booth
[00:33:16] with a
[00:33:16] curtain
[00:33:17] in front
[00:33:17] of
[00:33:18] and
[00:33:19] I
[00:33:19] hung up
[00:33:21] my
[00:33:22] flowers
[00:33:22] there
[00:33:23] to dry
[00:33:23] and
[00:33:24] the
[00:33:25] next
[00:33:25] year
[00:33:25] I
[00:33:25] just
[00:33:26] hung
[00:33:26] up
[00:33:26] the
[00:33:27] next
[00:33:27] flowers
[00:33:28] you
[00:33:28] know
[00:33:28] I
[00:33:29] got
[00:33:29] so
[00:33:30] my
[00:33:30] dressing
[00:33:30] room
[00:33:30] was
[00:33:30] filled
[00:33:31] with
[00:33:32] dried
[00:33:32] flower
[00:33:33] bouquets
[00:33:34] roses
[00:33:35] and
[00:33:36] other
[00:33:37] flowers
[00:33:37] like
[00:33:37] different
[00:33:39] types
[00:33:39] of
[00:33:40] Swedish
[00:33:40] flowers
[00:33:42] and
[00:33:44] during
[00:33:45] one of
[00:33:46] my
[00:33:47] feeling
[00:33:48] guilty
[00:33:48] about
[00:33:49] my
[00:33:49] way
[00:33:49] of
[00:33:49] life
[00:33:50] episodes
[00:33:50] I
[00:33:51] just
[00:33:51] decided
[00:33:52] I'm
[00:33:52] not
[00:33:52] going
[00:33:52] to do
[00:33:53] this
[00:33:53] anymore
[00:33:53] I'm
[00:33:55] going
[00:33:55] to be
[00:33:57] dignified
[00:33:57] I'm
[00:33:58] going
[00:33:58] to
[00:33:59] be
[00:34:01] dignified
[00:34:03] I'm
[00:34:04] going
[00:34:04] to
[00:34:04] carry
[00:34:04] myself
[00:34:05] with
[00:34:05] dignity
[00:34:06] I'm
[00:34:07] through
[00:34:07] with
[00:34:07] this
[00:34:08] being
[00:34:08] drunk
[00:34:09] and
[00:34:09] hungover
[00:34:10] and
[00:34:10] hungover
[00:34:13] so I
[00:34:13] just
[00:34:14] took
[00:34:14] all the
[00:34:14] flowers
[00:34:14] and I
[00:34:15] went
[00:34:15] out
[00:34:15] to
[00:34:15] the
[00:34:16] river
[00:34:16] behind
[00:34:16] the
[00:34:17] house
[00:34:18] and
[00:34:19] I
[00:34:23] what
[00:34:24] do
[00:34:24] you
[00:34:24] call
[00:34:24] it
[00:34:25] the
[00:34:26] the
[00:34:27] pontoon
[00:34:28] behind
[00:34:29] the
[00:34:29] house
[00:34:29] it
[00:34:30] was
[00:34:30] this
[00:34:31] wooden
[00:34:33] bridge
[00:34:34] like
[00:34:34] you
[00:34:36] could
[00:34:36] take
[00:34:36] that
[00:34:36] in
[00:34:37] order
[00:34:37] to
[00:34:38] avoid
[00:34:38] being
[00:34:39] seen
[00:34:39] by
[00:34:39] the
[00:34:39] audience
[00:34:40] you
[00:34:40] could
[00:34:40] go
[00:34:40] on
[00:34:41] this
[00:34:42] wooden
[00:34:42] plank
[00:34:43] passage
[00:34:44] behind
[00:34:45] down
[00:34:46] on
[00:34:46] the
[00:34:47] river
[00:34:47] so
[00:34:47] that
[00:34:47] you
[00:34:48] were
[00:34:48] hidden
[00:34:48] by
[00:34:48] the
[00:34:48] house
[00:34:49] and
[00:34:49] the
[00:34:50] bank
[00:34:50] down
[00:34:51] to
[00:34:51] the
[00:34:51] river
[00:34:52] so
[00:34:53] I
[00:34:53] went
[00:34:53] down
[00:34:54] there
[00:34:54] and
[00:34:54] there
[00:34:54] I
[00:34:54] was
[00:34:55] alone
[00:34:55] at
[00:34:56] the
[00:34:56] end
[00:34:56] of
[00:34:56] this
[00:34:57] walkway
[00:34:58] I
[00:34:59] just
[00:34:59] laid
[00:35:00] out
[00:35:01] all
[00:35:01] my
[00:35:02] flowers
[00:35:02] and
[00:35:03] it
[00:35:03] was
[00:35:03] almost
[00:35:04] like
[00:35:04] the
[00:35:05] river
[00:35:06] were
[00:35:06] made
[00:35:06] of
[00:35:07] this
[00:35:07] solid
[00:35:08] obsidian
[00:35:08] material
[00:35:10] I
[00:35:11] just
[00:35:11] put
[00:35:12] the
[00:35:12] flowers
[00:35:13] on
[00:35:13] top
[00:35:14] of
[00:35:14] the
[00:35:14] river
[00:35:14] that
[00:35:15] it
[00:35:15] seemed
[00:35:16] like
[00:35:16] this
[00:35:18] flat
[00:35:19] hard
[00:35:20] surface
[00:35:23] and
[00:35:23] I
[00:35:24] just
[00:35:25] laid
[00:35:25] them
[00:35:26] there
[00:35:27] and
[00:35:27] I
[00:35:28] watched
[00:35:28] them
[00:35:28] float
[00:35:29] away
[00:35:30] on
[00:35:30] this
[00:35:31] pitch
[00:35:31] black
[00:35:31] river
[00:35:33] and
[00:35:33] then
[00:35:33] one
[00:35:34] of
[00:35:34] my
[00:35:34] co-stars
[00:35:35] showed
[00:35:36] up
[00:35:36] and
[00:35:37] asked
[00:35:37] me
[00:35:37] what
[00:35:37] the
[00:35:38] hell
[00:35:38] are
[00:35:39] you
[00:35:39] doing
[00:35:39] like
[00:35:40] what
[00:35:41] are
[00:35:41] you
[00:35:41] crazy
[00:35:42] because
[00:35:42] it's
[00:35:42] like
[00:35:43] but I
[00:35:43] do
[00:35:44] stuff
[00:35:44] like
[00:35:44] that
[00:35:45] all
[00:35:45] the
[00:35:45] time
[00:35:46] I
[00:35:47] have
[00:35:47] this
[00:35:50] thing
[00:35:51] with
[00:35:53] ceremonies
[00:35:53] in a
[00:35:54] way
[00:35:54] I
[00:35:55] want
[00:35:56] to
[00:35:57] manifest
[00:35:57] big
[00:35:58] stuff
[00:35:59] that
[00:35:59] happens
[00:35:59] within
[00:36:00] me
[00:36:00] I
[00:36:00] want
[00:36:01] to
[00:36:01] manifest
[00:36:01] it
[00:36:01] on
[00:36:02] the
[00:36:02] outside
[00:36:02] so
[00:36:06] I
[00:36:06] did
[00:36:06] that
[00:36:08] and
[00:36:08] so
[00:36:12] of
[00:36:12] course
[00:36:12] Nanny
[00:36:13] she's
[00:36:14] done
[00:36:14] that
[00:36:14] a lot
[00:36:15] and
[00:36:16] now
[00:36:17] while
[00:36:18] I've
[00:36:18] been
[00:36:18] talking
[00:36:19] about
[00:36:19] my
[00:36:19] own
[00:36:19] personal
[00:36:20] life
[00:36:20] and
[00:36:21] experience
[00:36:21] with
[00:36:22] this
[00:36:22] my
[00:36:23] own
[00:36:23] river
[00:36:24] it's
[00:36:26] been
[00:36:27] 100
[00:36:28] years
[00:36:28] in
[00:36:29] Nanny's
[00:36:30] life
[00:36:30] so
[00:36:31] she's
[00:36:31] now
[00:36:33] 176
[00:36:34] and
[00:36:37] her
[00:36:38] wealth
[00:36:39] has
[00:36:40] now
[00:36:40] accumulated
[00:36:41] even
[00:36:41] more
[00:36:42] so
[00:36:42] she's
[00:36:42] well
[00:36:44] she's
[00:36:44] quite
[00:36:45] rich
[00:36:46] she
[00:36:47] placed
[00:36:49] her money
[00:36:49] at a
[00:36:50] young
[00:36:50] age
[00:36:51] she
[00:36:51] was
[00:36:53] smart
[00:36:54] enough
[00:36:54] to do
[00:36:54] that
[00:36:55] so
[00:36:56] since
[00:36:57] she's
[00:36:58] been
[00:36:58] living
[00:36:58] for
[00:36:59] 176
[00:37:00] years
[00:37:00] old
[00:37:01] this
[00:37:02] money
[00:37:02] has
[00:37:03] grown
[00:37:04] over
[00:37:05] decades
[00:37:05] and
[00:37:07] she's
[00:37:08] now
[00:37:08] quite
[00:37:08] wealthy
[00:37:09] but
[00:37:09] she
[00:37:10] only
[00:37:10] uses
[00:37:10] her
[00:37:11] money
[00:37:11] to
[00:37:11] keep
[00:37:14] up
[00:37:14] her
[00:37:14] own
[00:37:15] way
[00:37:15] of
[00:37:16] comfortable
[00:37:16] living
[00:37:17] she
[00:37:19] fell
[00:37:20] in
[00:37:20] love
[00:37:20] like
[00:37:20] 10
[00:37:21] years
[00:37:21] ago
[00:37:21] and
[00:37:22] married
[00:37:24] to
[00:37:24] another
[00:37:25] woman
[00:37:26] called
[00:37:26] Susie
[00:37:28] and
[00:37:29] Susie
[00:37:30] is
[00:37:30] well
[00:37:31] this is
[00:37:32] where
[00:37:32] it
[00:37:32] gets
[00:37:32] messy
[00:37:33] because
[00:37:34] Nanny
[00:37:35] is
[00:37:35] 176
[00:37:37] and
[00:37:37] her
[00:37:38] new
[00:37:38] partner
[00:37:38] Susie
[00:37:40] she's
[00:37:41] in her
[00:37:41] twenties
[00:37:41] and
[00:37:42] of course
[00:37:42] this
[00:37:43] could be
[00:37:43] looked upon
[00:37:44] with
[00:37:45] different
[00:37:45] problematic
[00:37:46] eyes
[00:37:46] you know
[00:37:47] it's
[00:37:48] but
[00:37:49] no one
[00:37:50] knows
[00:37:51] anymore
[00:37:51] exactly
[00:37:53] how
[00:37:53] old
[00:37:53] Nanny
[00:37:54] is
[00:37:54] because
[00:37:55] she
[00:37:56] looks
[00:37:56] like
[00:37:56] she's
[00:37:57] 20
[00:37:57] and
[00:37:57] not
[00:37:58] only
[00:37:58] looks
[00:37:59] she
[00:37:59] carries
[00:37:59] herself
[00:38:00] like
[00:38:00] she's
[00:38:00] 20
[00:38:00] she's
[00:38:01] this
[00:38:02] eternally
[00:38:04] young
[00:38:05] woman
[00:38:06] but
[00:38:09] once
[00:38:10] you get
[00:38:10] close to
[00:38:11] her
[00:38:11] once
[00:38:12] you get
[00:38:12] to
[00:38:12] know
[00:38:12] her
[00:38:13] you
[00:38:13] see
[00:38:14] that
[00:38:14] there's
[00:38:16] something
[00:38:18] you can't
[00:38:19] really
[00:38:20] touch
[00:38:20] beneath
[00:38:21] the
[00:38:21] eyes
[00:38:22] behind
[00:38:23] her
[00:38:23] manners
[00:38:26] a
[00:38:27] slowness
[00:38:28] a
[00:38:28] heaviness
[00:38:29] not
[00:38:30] in the
[00:38:31] way
[00:38:31] she
[00:38:31] moves
[00:38:32] it's
[00:38:33] more
[00:38:33] of
[00:38:33] the
[00:38:33] way
[00:38:34] that
[00:38:34] she
[00:38:34] views
[00:38:35] the
[00:38:36] world
[00:38:37] she
[00:38:38] looks
[00:38:38] at
[00:38:38] people
[00:38:39] and
[00:38:39] that's
[00:38:39] of
[00:38:40] course
[00:38:40] a
[00:38:41] very
[00:38:41] appealing
[00:38:42] trait
[00:38:46] that
[00:38:46] she
[00:38:47] carries
[00:38:49] people
[00:38:50] love
[00:38:50] her
[00:38:50] people
[00:38:51] really
[00:38:53] turn
[00:38:53] to
[00:38:53] her
[00:38:54] because
[00:38:55] she's
[00:38:55] seen
[00:38:56] so
[00:38:56] much
[00:38:56] she
[00:38:57] knows
[00:38:58] so
[00:38:58] much
[00:38:59] and
[00:39:00] since
[00:39:01] being a
[00:39:01] wealthy
[00:39:02] woman
[00:39:02] she can
[00:39:03] also
[00:39:03] take
[00:39:04] care
[00:39:04] of
[00:39:04] other
[00:39:04] people
[00:39:06] Susie
[00:39:06] for
[00:39:07] instance
[00:39:08] are
[00:39:09] being
[00:39:09] taken
[00:39:09] care
[00:39:09] of
[00:39:11] and
[00:39:11] they
[00:39:12] live
[00:39:12] there
[00:39:12] together
[00:39:12] by
[00:39:15] the
[00:39:15] river
[00:39:16] the
[00:39:17] same
[00:39:17] river
[00:39:17] the
[00:39:18] same
[00:39:18] hut
[00:39:18] although
[00:39:19] the
[00:39:20] hut
[00:39:20] has
[00:39:20] grown
[00:39:21] significantly
[00:39:21] over
[00:39:23] the
[00:39:23] years
[00:39:24] it's
[00:39:25] more
[00:39:25] of a
[00:39:25] house
[00:39:25] now
[00:39:26] but
[00:39:27] it
[00:39:27] still
[00:39:27] keeps
[00:39:28] the
[00:39:28] qualities
[00:39:29] of
[00:39:29] a
[00:39:29] hut
[00:39:29] like
[00:39:31] thin
[00:39:32] walls
[00:39:33] the
[00:39:34] climate
[00:39:35] at
[00:39:36] this
[00:39:36] river
[00:39:37] is
[00:39:38] thankfully
[00:39:39] a very
[00:39:39] mild
[00:39:41] one
[00:39:44] and
[00:39:46] she's
[00:39:47] also
[00:39:47] started
[00:39:49] a few
[00:39:50] help
[00:39:51] groups
[00:39:52] with
[00:39:53] people
[00:39:54] that
[00:39:54] she
[00:39:55] can
[00:39:55] afford
[00:39:55] to
[00:39:56] pay
[00:39:56] as
[00:39:56] well
[00:39:58] without
[00:39:59] ruining
[00:40:00] herself
[00:40:01] she
[00:40:02] can
[00:40:03] just
[00:40:04] pay
[00:40:05] for
[00:40:05] people
[00:40:06] to
[00:40:07] help
[00:40:08] the
[00:40:09] neighborhood
[00:40:10] so
[00:40:11] not
[00:40:12] only
[00:40:12] like
[00:40:14] in the
[00:40:14] immediate
[00:40:15] surroundings
[00:40:16] around
[00:40:16] Nanny
[00:40:17] and Susie
[00:40:17] you can
[00:40:18] be
[00:40:18] helped
[00:40:19] and
[00:40:20] supported
[00:40:20] this
[00:40:21] is
[00:40:22] like
[00:40:23] this
[00:40:23] major
[00:40:24] support
[00:40:24] network
[00:40:25] that
[00:40:26] stretches
[00:40:27] for
[00:40:29] almost
[00:40:29] the
[00:40:30] entire
[00:40:30] county
[00:40:31] and
[00:40:33] all
[00:40:35] over
[00:40:35] this
[00:40:37] vast
[00:40:38] neighborhood
[00:40:38] people
[00:40:40] truly
[00:40:40] love
[00:40:41] Nanny
[00:40:42] and
[00:40:43] she
[00:40:43] feels
[00:40:43] happy
[00:40:45] and
[00:40:48] sufficient
[00:40:49] and
[00:40:50] she
[00:40:51] thinks
[00:40:51] and
[00:40:52] feels
[00:40:53] that
[00:40:53] she's
[00:40:53] discovered
[00:40:54] the
[00:40:54] meaning
[00:40:55] of
[00:40:55] existence
[00:40:55] and
[00:40:56] she
[00:40:56] doesn't
[00:40:56] really
[00:40:56] think
[00:40:57] too
[00:40:57] much
[00:40:57] about
[00:40:58] the
[00:40:59] fact
[00:40:59] that
[00:40:59] she
[00:41:00] doesn't
[00:41:00] tend
[00:41:00] to
[00:41:01] ever
[00:41:02] get
[00:41:02] sick
[00:41:03] or
[00:41:03] frail
[00:41:05] weak
[00:41:07] and
[00:41:08] die
[00:41:08] and
[00:41:10] over
[00:41:11] the
[00:41:11] years
[00:41:11] Susie
[00:41:12] gets
[00:41:13] older
[00:41:14] everyone
[00:41:15] around
[00:41:15] her
[00:41:15] gets
[00:41:16] older
[00:41:18] and
[00:41:19] she's
[00:41:20] been in
[00:41:20] love
[00:41:21] before
[00:41:21] of course
[00:41:22] but
[00:41:23] with
[00:41:24] Susie
[00:41:24] it's
[00:41:25] different
[00:41:25] because
[00:41:25] she's
[00:41:26] at a
[00:41:26] place
[00:41:28] well
[00:41:29] Nanny
[00:41:29] is at
[00:41:30] a
[00:41:30] place
[00:41:30] in
[00:41:31] her
[00:41:32] own
[00:41:32] mind
[00:41:32] where
[00:41:32] she
[00:41:34] truly
[00:41:34] feels
[00:41:35] that
[00:41:35] she
[00:41:35] can
[00:41:35] see
[00:41:36] the
[00:41:36] beauty
[00:41:36] in
[00:41:36] other
[00:41:37] people
[00:41:37] without
[00:41:38] losing
[00:41:39] the
[00:41:41] sense
[00:41:42] of
[00:41:44] importance
[00:41:44] of
[00:41:45] other
[00:41:45] stuff
[00:41:45] you know
[00:41:47] it's
[00:41:47] not
[00:41:47] that
[00:41:48] wild
[00:41:49] crazy
[00:41:51] hormonial
[00:41:51] love
[00:41:52] state
[00:41:52] that
[00:41:54] she
[00:41:54] had
[00:41:54] when
[00:41:55] she
[00:41:55] was
[00:41:55] young
[00:41:55] it's
[00:41:58] deeper
[00:41:58] and
[00:42:00] to be
[00:42:00] honest
[00:42:02] like
[00:42:02] so much
[00:42:04] more
[00:42:04] valuable
[00:42:05] state
[00:42:05] of
[00:42:06] mind
[00:42:06] when
[00:42:07] you
[00:42:07] truly
[00:42:08] love
[00:42:08] you
[00:42:08] know
[00:42:11] and
[00:42:12] she
[00:42:13] feels
[00:42:13] young
[00:42:13] together
[00:42:14] with
[00:42:14] Susie
[00:42:15] not
[00:42:15] because
[00:42:16] Susie
[00:42:16] is
[00:42:16] young
[00:42:17] because
[00:42:18] in a
[00:42:18] way
[00:42:18] they are
[00:42:19] the
[00:42:19] same
[00:42:19] age
[00:42:19] it's
[00:42:20] just
[00:42:20] that
[00:42:22] Nanny
[00:42:22] has
[00:42:22] been
[00:42:23] this
[00:42:23] old
[00:42:24] for
[00:42:26] well
[00:42:26] more
[00:42:27] than
[00:42:27] a
[00:42:27] century
[00:42:28] now
[00:42:29] and
[00:42:30] but
[00:42:35] she
[00:42:35] feels
[00:42:35] young
[00:42:36] because
[00:42:37] Susie
[00:42:38] makes her
[00:42:39] see
[00:42:39] herself
[00:42:40] in a
[00:42:41] way
[00:42:41] like
[00:42:41] the
[00:42:42] river
[00:42:42] outside
[00:42:42] the
[00:42:43] house
[00:42:44] different
[00:42:45] every
[00:42:46] day
[00:42:47] and
[00:42:49] as
[00:42:51] Susie
[00:42:51] grows
[00:42:51] older
[00:42:53] getting
[00:42:54] frailer
[00:42:56] getting
[00:42:57] more
[00:42:57] frail
[00:43:02] dark
[00:43:03] spot
[00:43:05] within
[00:43:08] Nanny
[00:43:08] grows
[00:43:09] because
[00:43:12] she knows
[00:43:13] what's
[00:43:13] next
[00:43:13] she
[00:43:14] knows
[00:43:16] what's
[00:43:17] going to
[00:43:18] happen
[00:43:18] to
[00:43:18] Susie
[00:43:20] and
[00:43:22] although
[00:43:23] they
[00:43:24] live
[00:43:25] together
[00:43:25] for
[00:43:25] decades
[00:43:26] and
[00:43:27] decades
[00:43:27] at
[00:43:27] end
[00:43:28] one
[00:43:29] day
[00:43:29] Susie
[00:43:30] dies
[00:43:31] and
[00:43:32] then
[00:43:35] Nanny
[00:43:37] enters
[00:43:37] this
[00:43:38] period
[00:43:39] because
[00:43:40] she
[00:43:40] still
[00:43:41] is a
[00:43:42] 20
[00:43:43] year old
[00:43:43] woman
[00:43:45] it's
[00:43:46] almost
[00:43:46] like
[00:43:47] she's
[00:43:47] in a
[00:43:47] prison
[00:43:48] if you
[00:43:49] can
[00:43:49] imagine
[00:43:49] I
[00:43:50] mean
[00:43:51] it's
[00:43:52] easy
[00:43:52] at
[00:43:53] first
[00:43:54] glance
[00:43:54] to
[00:43:54] just
[00:43:55] say
[00:43:55] that
[00:43:55] not
[00:43:56] aging
[00:43:57] would
[00:43:57] be
[00:43:57] like
[00:43:58] this
[00:43:58] dream
[00:43:58] state
[00:43:59] that
[00:44:00] I
[00:44:01] mean
[00:44:01] what
[00:44:01] could
[00:44:01] possibly
[00:44:02] be
[00:44:02] bad
[00:44:03] but
[00:44:04] imagine
[00:44:04] that
[00:44:05] any
[00:44:05] other
[00:44:06] person
[00:44:07] around
[00:44:07] you
[00:44:08] that
[00:44:08] you
[00:44:08] get
[00:44:08] attached
[00:44:09] to
[00:44:09] and
[00:44:09] even
[00:44:09] people
[00:44:10] that
[00:44:10] you
[00:44:10] don't
[00:44:10] care
[00:44:11] about
[00:44:11] grows
[00:44:12] older
[00:44:12] and
[00:44:13] the
[00:44:13] older
[00:44:14] you
[00:44:14] get
[00:44:14] the
[00:44:15] faster
[00:44:15] the
[00:44:16] other
[00:44:16] people's
[00:44:16] aging
[00:44:17] processes
[00:44:18] seem
[00:44:19] to
[00:44:19] you
[00:44:20] it's
[00:44:21] almost
[00:44:21] like
[00:44:22] she's
[00:44:22] standing
[00:44:22] at a
[00:44:24] crossroad
[00:44:24] watching
[00:44:25] the
[00:44:25] traffic
[00:44:27] speed
[00:44:28] by
[00:44:28] in
[00:44:28] like
[00:44:30] this
[00:44:31] accelerated
[00:44:32] speed
[00:44:32] like in
[00:44:33] a music
[00:44:34] video
[00:44:36] a
[00:44:37] time
[00:44:38] lapse
[00:44:38] of
[00:44:39] life
[00:44:40] happening
[00:44:40] around
[00:44:41] you
[00:44:41] while
[00:44:41] you
[00:44:42] still
[00:44:42] you're
[00:44:43] not
[00:44:44] influenced
[00:44:45] by any
[00:44:46] of it
[00:44:46] you're
[00:44:46] not
[00:44:46] affected
[00:44:47] by the
[00:44:47] traits
[00:44:48] of
[00:44:48] time
[00:44:48] and
[00:44:54] so
[00:44:55] goes
[00:44:55] 245
[00:44:56] years
[00:44:59] and
[00:45:00] nanny
[00:45:01] is
[00:45:02] now
[00:45:05] 300
[00:45:06] and
[00:45:07] no
[00:45:10] she's
[00:45:10] 400
[00:45:12] no
[00:45:13] wait
[00:45:13] I need
[00:45:14] to count
[00:45:15] on my
[00:45:15] fingers
[00:45:16] I'm not
[00:45:16] good
[00:45:17] with
[00:45:17] math
[00:45:17] so
[00:45:18] he
[00:45:18] was
[00:45:18] she
[00:45:19] was
[00:45:19] 176
[00:45:20] before
[00:45:21] and
[00:45:22] then
[00:45:22] there's
[00:45:22] this
[00:45:23] 245
[00:45:24] so
[00:45:28] okay
[00:45:31] so
[00:45:31] 176
[00:45:33] plus
[00:45:34] 45
[00:45:34] first
[00:45:35] of all
[00:45:36] 76
[00:45:38] 86
[00:45:39] 96
[00:45:40] 106
[00:45:47] 164
[00:45:49] so
[00:45:51] she's
[00:45:53] 464
[00:45:54] years
[00:45:54] old
[00:45:55] I could
[00:46:00] be
[00:46:00] totally
[00:46:01] wrong
[00:46:01] here
[00:46:01] okay
[00:46:02] she's
[00:46:03] almost
[00:46:03] half
[00:46:05] a
[00:46:05] millennia
[00:46:07] and
[00:46:10] she's
[00:46:10] been
[00:46:11] well I
[00:46:12] guess
[00:46:12] you could
[00:46:13] call her
[00:46:13] depressed
[00:46:14] for this
[00:46:15] time
[00:46:15] she
[00:46:17] hasn't
[00:46:17] really
[00:46:18] attached
[00:46:19] herself
[00:46:20] to anyone
[00:46:20] new
[00:46:22] since
[00:46:23] Susie
[00:46:23] died
[00:46:24] and
[00:46:25] she
[00:46:25] hasn't
[00:46:26] she
[00:46:27] has
[00:46:28] lived
[00:46:28] a
[00:46:29] very
[00:46:30] withdrawn
[00:46:31] life
[00:46:31] her
[00:46:33] help
[00:46:33] organizations
[00:46:34] around
[00:46:36] the
[00:46:36] county
[00:46:37] has
[00:46:37] widened
[00:46:38] even
[00:46:39] more
[00:46:39] and
[00:46:41] are
[00:46:43] now
[00:46:43] the
[00:46:44] most
[00:46:45] prominent
[00:46:45] organization
[00:46:46] in the
[00:46:47] world
[00:46:48] since
[00:46:50] it's
[00:46:50] so
[00:46:50] old
[00:46:51] and
[00:46:51] her
[00:46:52] wealth
[00:46:52] has
[00:46:53] accumulated
[00:46:54] even
[00:46:54] more
[00:46:54] so
[00:46:55] the
[00:46:56] money
[00:46:56] is not
[00:46:57] an
[00:46:57] issue
[00:46:57] and
[00:46:58] she
[00:46:59] does
[00:46:59] a lot
[00:46:59] of
[00:46:59] good
[00:47:00] but
[00:47:01] she
[00:47:02] herself
[00:47:02] are
[00:47:03] not
[00:47:04] happy
[00:47:04] she
[00:47:05] lives
[00:47:06] in
[00:47:07] the
[00:47:07] same
[00:47:07] house
[00:47:08] and
[00:47:10] she's
[00:47:11] looking
[00:47:11] at the
[00:47:12] world
[00:47:12] like
[00:47:13] this
[00:47:13] time
[00:47:13] lapse
[00:47:14] and
[00:47:14] she
[00:47:15] doesn't
[00:47:15] really
[00:47:15] understand
[00:47:16] why
[00:47:17] why
[00:47:18] is she
[00:47:19] this
[00:47:19] way
[00:47:19] why
[00:47:20] can't
[00:47:20] she
[00:47:21] just
[00:47:21] be
[00:47:21] like
[00:47:21] any
[00:47:22] other
[00:47:22] person
[00:47:23] that
[00:47:24] gets
[00:47:25] put
[00:47:26] into
[00:47:26] this
[00:47:26] world
[00:47:27] without
[00:47:27] knowing
[00:47:28] why
[00:47:28] lives
[00:47:29] a
[00:47:29] life
[00:47:29] falls
[00:47:30] in
[00:47:30] love
[00:47:30] does
[00:47:32] stuff
[00:47:32] and
[00:47:33] avoids
[00:47:34] stuff
[00:47:34] and
[00:47:35] then
[00:47:35] dies
[00:47:35] why
[00:47:36] is
[00:47:36] she
[00:47:37] this
[00:47:39] perpetual
[00:47:39] being
[00:47:40] but
[00:47:45] then
[00:47:45] one
[00:47:45] day
[00:47:46] she's
[00:47:47] out
[00:47:47] on
[00:47:49] one
[00:47:50] of
[00:47:50] her
[00:47:50] daily
[00:47:50] walks
[00:47:51] she
[00:47:57] other
[00:47:57] other
[00:47:58] administrators
[00:47:59] of her
[00:48:00] own
[00:48:00] organization
[00:48:01] it
[00:48:02] tends
[00:48:03] to
[00:48:03] take
[00:48:03] care
[00:48:03] of
[00:48:03] itself
[00:48:04] not
[00:48:05] many
[00:48:05] people
[00:48:06] have
[00:48:06] visited
[00:48:07] her
[00:48:07] or
[00:48:08] met
[00:48:09] her
[00:48:09] in
[00:48:09] many
[00:48:10] years
[00:48:11] she
[00:48:11] has
[00:48:11] this
[00:48:12] sort
[00:48:12] of
[00:48:12] enigmatic
[00:48:13] quality
[00:48:14] about
[00:48:15] her
[00:48:15] people
[00:48:16] talk
[00:48:16] about
[00:48:16] her
[00:48:16] like
[00:48:17] this
[00:48:17] very
[00:48:18] rare
[00:48:18] sighting
[00:48:20] but
[00:48:21] she's
[00:48:21] out
[00:48:21] in
[00:48:22] the
[00:48:22] woods
[00:48:23] on
[00:48:23] her
[00:48:25] daily
[00:48:26] walk
[00:48:27] and
[00:48:27] then
[00:48:29] she
[00:48:29] just
[00:48:30] decides
[00:48:31] to take
[00:48:31] another
[00:48:32] road
[00:48:32] one
[00:48:33] that
[00:48:33] she
[00:48:34] has
[00:48:35] well
[00:48:36] she
[00:48:36] used
[00:48:37] to
[00:48:37] walk
[00:48:37] it
[00:48:37] when
[00:48:37] she
[00:48:38] was
[00:48:38] younger
[00:48:38] but
[00:48:39] she
[00:48:40] hasn't
[00:48:40] realized
[00:48:41] since
[00:48:41] she's
[00:48:42] not
[00:48:42] walked
[00:48:43] there
[00:48:43] for
[00:48:44] maybe
[00:48:44] a
[00:48:44] century
[00:48:45] there's
[00:48:46] this
[00:48:46] whole
[00:48:47] new
[00:48:47] mine
[00:48:48] shaft
[00:48:48] there
[00:48:48] and
[00:48:50] without
[00:48:50] knowing
[00:48:50] it
[00:48:51] she
[00:48:51] just
[00:48:51] falls
[00:48:52] down
[00:48:52] in
[00:48:52] it
[00:48:53] and
[00:48:53] she
[00:48:53] can't
[00:48:54] die
[00:48:54] she's
[00:48:55] just
[00:48:56] there
[00:48:57] and
[00:48:58] she
[00:48:58] can't
[00:48:59] climb
[00:48:59] up
[00:48:59] and
[00:49:01] she
[00:49:02] can't
[00:49:03] call
[00:49:04] for
[00:49:04] help
[00:49:05] because
[00:49:05] it's
[00:49:05] too
[00:49:06] deep
[00:49:07] and
[00:49:08] she's
[00:49:09] just
[00:49:09] there
[00:49:10] she
[00:49:12] just
[00:49:12] sits
[00:49:13] in
[00:49:13] this
[00:49:13] dark
[00:49:15] pit
[00:49:16] for
[00:49:18] almost
[00:49:19] a hundred
[00:49:20] years
[00:49:20] so
[00:49:23] now
[00:49:23] she's
[00:49:24] over
[00:49:25] 500
[00:49:25] years
[00:49:25] old
[00:49:26] and
[00:49:26] still
[00:49:27] looks
[00:49:27] like
[00:49:27] this
[00:49:28] 20
[00:49:28] year
[00:49:28] old
[00:49:28] woman
[00:49:29] in
[00:49:30] teared
[00:49:31] up
[00:49:31] clothes
[00:49:32] and
[00:49:32] dirty
[00:49:32] and
[00:49:33] in
[00:49:34] the
[00:49:35] darkness
[00:49:35] there
[00:49:35] in
[00:49:37] the
[00:49:37] mind
[00:49:37] in
[00:49:39] the
[00:49:39] mind
[00:49:39] and
[00:49:40] in
[00:49:40] the
[00:49:40] mind
[00:49:40] she
[00:49:42] sort
[00:49:42] of
[00:49:42] turns
[00:49:44] it
[00:49:44] around
[00:49:44] because
[00:49:46] she's
[00:49:46] as
[00:49:46] deep
[00:49:46] as
[00:49:47] you
[00:49:47] can
[00:49:47] get
[00:49:47] imagine
[00:49:49] being
[00:49:49] stuck
[00:49:50] in
[00:49:50] a
[00:49:50] hole
[00:49:50] and
[00:49:52] you
[00:49:52] can't
[00:49:52] end
[00:49:53] you
[00:49:54] can't
[00:49:55] you
[00:49:56] know
[00:49:56] there's
[00:49:57] no
[00:49:57] end
[00:49:58] so
[00:50:01] then
[00:50:02] she
[00:50:02] just
[00:50:02] says
[00:50:03] yes
[00:50:03] to
[00:50:03] the
[00:50:03] darkness
[00:50:04] within
[00:50:05] her
[00:50:05] and
[00:50:07] discovers
[00:50:08] that
[00:50:08] there's
[00:50:09] light
[00:50:09] in
[00:50:09] there
[00:50:11] and
[00:50:12] suddenly
[00:50:13] over
[00:50:14] the
[00:50:14] years
[00:50:14] this
[00:50:15] great
[00:50:15] sensation
[00:50:16] of joy
[00:50:17] fills
[00:50:17] her
[00:50:17] the
[00:50:18] great
[00:50:18] sensation
[00:50:19] of joy
[00:50:19] to be
[00:50:20] alive
[00:50:20] to be
[00:50:22] a
[00:50:23] living
[00:50:23] being
[00:50:24] in
[00:50:24] the
[00:50:24] world
[00:50:24] and
[00:50:26] she
[00:50:26] starts
[00:50:26] having
[00:50:27] these
[00:50:27] amazing
[00:50:28] experiences
[00:50:28] with
[00:50:29] the
[00:50:29] moving
[00:50:30] earth
[00:50:30] around
[00:50:31] her
[00:50:31] and
[00:50:32] she
[00:50:32] discovers
[00:50:33] that
[00:50:35] slowly
[00:50:36] slowly
[00:50:36] almost
[00:50:37] totally
[00:50:38] invisible
[00:50:40] caves
[00:50:42] open up
[00:50:43] around
[00:50:43] her
[00:50:43] and
[00:50:45] she
[00:50:45] can
[00:50:45] gradually
[00:50:46] move
[00:50:47] as
[00:50:48] the
[00:50:49] earth
[00:50:49] shifts
[00:50:50] around
[00:50:50] her
[00:50:50] and
[00:50:52] over
[00:50:52] the
[00:50:52] hundreds
[00:50:52] of
[00:50:53] years
[00:50:53] that
[00:50:53] follows
[00:50:54] she
[00:50:55] maneuvers
[00:50:56] around
[00:50:57] the
[00:51:01] shifting
[00:51:02] earth
[00:51:02] going
[00:51:05] down
[00:51:05] and
[00:51:05] up
[00:51:06] and
[00:51:06] then
[00:51:07] one
[00:51:07] day
[00:51:08] the
[00:51:08] ground
[00:51:09] opens
[00:51:09] up
[00:51:09] above
[00:51:10] her
[00:51:10] and
[00:51:10] she
[00:51:10] can
[00:51:10] step
[00:51:11] out
[00:51:11] into
[00:51:11] the
[00:51:11] light
[00:51:13] and
[00:51:14] she
[00:51:14] realizes
[00:51:14] that
[00:51:15] she
[00:51:15] has
[00:51:15] a
[00:51:15] job
[00:51:16] to
[00:51:16] do
[00:51:53] country and just start to produce this welfare machine that takes care of everyone.
[00:52:00] Sort of a universal basic income.
[00:52:03] Of course, there's been legends about her.
[00:52:11] And when discovering that Nanny actually is real, the world just follows her like in an
[00:52:21] instant.
[00:52:21] So it takes place like in a very uncomplicated way.
[00:52:28] And of course, she being loaded is, of course, very helpful in this case.
[00:52:38] So she gets married again with another girl, another woman.
[00:52:46] And she finds companionship to be joyful again.
[00:52:54] And compassion is really one of her most enjoyable states of mind.
[00:53:06] And the fact that she actually has means to help and to change the world for real.
[00:53:17] And before you know it, in her world, I mean, 300 years, maybe.
[00:53:26] She has turned the world into this utopia.
[00:53:32] And when she's, you know, she's been in and out of politics and arts and sports and all the stuff that a person with no age, you know, with no aging processes can really indulge.
[00:53:51] She's read all that.
[00:53:52] She's read all there is to read.
[00:53:54] She's learned everything there is to learn.
[00:53:58] She's created by trial and error, of course, and by the help of geniuses that comes and goes.
[00:54:07] But she's the still, she's the common thread throughout it all.
[00:54:15] She's turned planet Earth and all of us who live her into this paradise.
[00:54:25] And then she decides that her next step is to go to the stars.
[00:54:35] So throughout all these years, she's been developing this high technological space program.
[00:54:43] And she now has the technical ability to travel to the stars.
[00:54:48] But the only thing that stops her from doing it is, well, it takes time.
[00:54:57] It takes thousands of years.
[00:55:01] Even if you go like almost at the speed of light.
[00:55:09] Well, you can't, you can't travel that fast.
[00:55:17] But even a fraction of the speed of light is unimaginable in terms of speed.
[00:55:26] But still, space is big.
[00:55:29] So just in order to reach our closest star will take thousands and thousands of years.
[00:55:37] And she's the only one who can do that.
[00:55:44] And she realizes that this might be a one-way trip.
[00:55:51] So she gazes and scans the night sky.
[00:55:59] And picks out this star that are 500 light years away from Earth.
[00:56:06] Because around that star there are signs of oxygen.
[00:56:17] And, well, it's...
[00:56:20] There are around that star a planet that's in the so-called Goldilocks zone around the star.
[00:56:28] Not too cold, not too warm.
[00:56:32] Just right.
[00:56:33] But Earth is in a Goldilocks zone around the sun, our sun.
[00:56:42] And she stuffs her spaceship with DNA samples from a huge variety of people.
[00:56:54] And since Earth now has a self-sustainable system, they can manage from here.
[00:57:02] They don't need her anymore.
[00:57:04] She bids them farewell and she steps into the spaceship.
[00:57:07] And the spaceship is built as a replica of her own hut by the river.
[00:57:16] And she changes the pitch black river, sometimes pitch black river, to the darkness of space instead.
[00:57:24] And then she leaves.
[00:57:28] And then we take a huge break from her.
[00:57:32] For 20,000 years she just travels.
[00:57:37] And then one day she enters the orbit of this foreign star.
[00:57:49] And she zooms in on this particular planet in the Goldilocks zone.
[00:57:54] And she realizes that she can create this new society there.
[00:58:02] With the help of the DNA samples from the people around her.
[00:58:09] That she brought with her being freezed down.
[00:58:14] And she lands on this planet.
[00:58:18] And it contains wildlife.
[00:58:22] And the wildlife is not the same as on Earth, of course.
[00:58:27] The life are different.
[00:58:31] But still, it's life.
[00:58:33] And the atmosphere is breathable.
[00:58:36] She needs to add a few extra genes to the genomes that she brought with her.
[00:58:48] And she almost immediately starts to grow children in her lab.
[00:58:56] In artificial wombs.
[00:58:59] Playing classical music for them every day.
[00:59:02] Talking to them.
[00:59:04] Stroking them while passing.
[00:59:09] And after about six years, the first child is born.
[00:59:15] The first human being being born outside of Earth.
[00:59:19] Earth.
[00:59:20] And she gives her the name Susie.
[00:59:28] And then, at the same time as Susie is being born and all the other children with a great genetic variety, may I add.
[00:59:37] Because this is supposed to be, you know, the beginning of a new species.
[00:59:45] You know, human species on a different planet.
[00:59:47] They can't all be siblings and such.
[00:59:50] So, at the same time as the children are being born one after the other, Nanny starts to feel her own age starting to tick off.
[01:00:09] She realizes that her job is done.
[01:00:13] And she's, by now, she's like way over 20,000 years of age.
[01:00:22] And she's seen almost everything, yet she hasn't seen anything.
[01:00:29] She hasn't seen all there is to see.
[01:00:32] Although she's as old as, you know, time.
[01:00:38] But no, she's not.
[01:00:40] You know, she's just a fragment.
[01:00:47] And she feels a sense of sadness.
[01:00:51] Since she won't be around, she realizes to see the children that she gave birth to, in a way.
[01:01:01] But she's also relieved.
[01:01:05] And so, one day, she ends it.
[01:01:07] She ends her life.
[01:01:09] No, she's not ending it.
[01:01:11] It comes to an end.
[01:01:13] Had a beautiful day by another river on this new planet.
[01:01:18] And Susie is with her.
[01:01:23] The first new person being born on another planet outside of Earth.
[01:01:31] Susie is holding her hand.
[01:01:33] And it's almost like time itself whispers to Nanny,
[01:01:39] Now you can rest.
[01:01:44] It's done.
[01:01:46] Sleep tight.
[01:01:47] Hi, and welcome to Fall Asleep with Hendrik.
[01:01:54] I'm Hendrik.
[01:01:56] And you are sleepy.
[01:02:00] And it is what it is.
[01:02:04] What happens, happens.
[01:02:08] And right now, there's nothing we can do.
[01:02:16] So, let's go.
[01:02:21] Hi, sleepy.
[01:02:24] Hi.
[01:02:24] So, first of all, welcome to another episode of Fall Asleep with Hendrik.
[01:02:32] The podcast that you don't really have to listen to if you don't want, necessarily.
[01:02:39] I'm just going to talk and I don't prepare anything in advance.
[01:02:45] And I'm not supposed to, either.
[01:02:52] Because it is what it is.
[01:02:56] So, you will hear whatever, you know.
[01:03:01] I will just talk.
[01:03:03] And you can use me either way you see fit.
[01:03:07] You can just put me on in the background.
[01:03:10] Or you can listen actively.
[01:03:14] The main purpose is for me to help you relax.
[01:03:20] To be your mind.
[01:03:22] Your messy, breakdancing mind for a while.
[01:03:30] But, it can go either way.
[01:03:32] Some people listen to me and find me entertaining.
[01:03:37] And consume me while awake.
[01:03:40] And that's okay too, I guess.
[01:03:44] My name is Hendrik.
[01:03:45] And I am a Swedish actor and podcaster.
[01:03:49] Who is now making my shaky little entrance on the international stage.
[01:03:57] So, with that said, I am not fluently English speaking.
[01:04:02] And as you may tell from my dialect, from my accent, I'm...
[01:04:10] Well, I couldn't pass for an Englishman even if they paid me to do it, I guess.
[01:04:16] But it's okay.
[01:04:18] Because the world is a big place.
[01:04:20] And I have this belief that there is something in this very modest communication that I'm trying to pull off here.
[01:04:34] That applies to everyone regardless of origin.
[01:04:40] So, the only thing that's really important here is that you at least understand some of what I say.
[01:04:50] Maybe not everything.
[01:04:51] You can follow me on all social media.
[01:05:00] And please do if you want to know more about me.
[01:05:04] I have English speaking accounts and Swedish speaking accounts on YouTube.
[01:05:13] Which is the modern word for YouTube.
[01:05:18] And TikTok and Instagram and all that.
[01:05:21] I don't really...
[01:05:23] I don't really...
[01:05:24] I am really tired of Instagram.
[01:05:27] I feel like all we do as content creators on social media is we listen to the big companies that tells us what to do.
[01:05:38] And we forget the fact that what they are really doing is that they are training us to be their perfect salesmen.
[01:05:47] It really annoys me because as a somewhat major creator here in Sweden at least, I get contacted and praised from the big companies themselves.
[01:06:03] They say, oh, you're so important.
[01:06:05] You're really important to us.
[01:06:07] We want you to be a part of this network and that network.
[01:06:10] And of course, you get flattered and you sit on these meetings and you feel like you're part of something great.
[01:06:17] Because that's really the thing that they're really selling to us creators.
[01:06:22] Like we're a part of something great.
[01:06:26] But then there's this sub stream in the communication.
[01:06:32] And that's what this thing is all about, really.
[01:06:38] I am being trained to be the perfect ad salesman for a huge international company.
[01:06:48] And this is why I'm doing this podcast.
[01:06:50] I know that I am also with this material ad.
[01:06:58] I'm in need of ads to provide me with an income.
[01:07:03] But I would, to be honest with you, prefer if that wasn't necessary.
[01:07:08] I would love to be on my own legs, on my own economic bones, my own economic bone structure.
[01:07:21] But sadly, that's not the reality.
[01:07:25] Maybe one day in the future, I will be totally independent and not reliable.
[01:07:32] Not be in so keen on relying on ads and sponsorships.
[01:07:45] But until that day comes, you'll have to take the bad with the good, I guess.
[01:07:51] And the ads in this podcast is only in the beginning.
[01:07:55] I won't have any ads or sponsorships in the middle or the end of the episode.
[01:08:01] If that happens to you, then tell me.
[01:08:04] Because then there's been a mistake in ACOS's technical infrastructure.
[01:08:09] Or it might have been just that the next episode just triggered as your previous episode ended.
[01:08:23] That can happen.
[01:08:27] Sometimes I get emails, angry emails from people who says that you keep telling us that you will have no ads in the end of the episode.
[01:08:40] But yet you do.
[01:08:42] And I can assure you that I don't.
[01:08:45] It's when that happens, it's, well, a freak of technical nature.
[01:08:52] Or it's the next episode that you've accidentally queued the episode in a way that whenever one episode ends,
[01:09:03] the next one unplayed episode is being triggered.
[01:09:08] So please check that your listening queue.
[01:09:14] Some of my listeners put a timer, a sleeping timer on, so that they won't wake up whenever something else happens.
[01:09:30] And of course, if you want to get rid of the ads altogether, you can subscribe to Fall Asleep With Henrik+,
[01:09:39] which is like, it's kind of cheap, I guess.
[01:09:43] It depends on what you compare it with.
[01:09:45] And I don't even remember right now the actual cost, but I think it's like $2 a month or something.
[01:09:57] And yeah, so check that out.
[01:10:01] You have a link in the podcast description if you want to check that out.
[01:10:05] Okay, so I'm not supposed really to talk about,
[01:10:11] I'm not really supposed to talk about all that technical stuff.
[01:10:23] Or maybe I am.
[01:10:24] I mean, I don't have any rules.
[01:10:27] The only rule I have when providing you with my questionable content is to try and keep my voice consistent.
[01:10:38] So sometimes I burst into laughter because I really enjoy doing this.
[01:10:47] It's fun.
[01:10:50] And that may be a breach of contract in a way.
[01:10:55] But other than that, I don't really do any big voice changing things.
[01:11:03] So I want you to rely.
[01:11:06] I want you to be able to rely on my voice being consistent with a few interruptions maybe.
[01:11:14] But I won't do any dialects or singing or screaming or no jingles or stingers in the middle of the episode.
[01:11:26] And sometimes I will be just completely silent for seconds in a row.
[01:11:40] And it's okay.
[01:11:45] There is this overwhelming feeling of freedom to sit here and speak to an international audience
[01:11:54] and just say whatever I want, whatever I come up with and not prepare.
[01:12:02] I mean, this morning I just went out and I just sat down and I pressed record on my device.
[01:12:11] And now I'm here with you.
[01:12:17] I get so many emails and DMs telling me how you use my podcast.
[01:12:25] And again, I'm not really able to answer all the emails and DMs.
[01:12:33] But I try to and I read all of it, absolutely all of it.
[01:12:39] Some of you write consistently like every few days.
[01:12:46] And I'm so glad it's proof of concept to me.
[01:12:53] And I'm really glad to get to know you.
[01:12:57] And some of you may be just writing once, telling me how you use your podcast.
[01:13:03] I've heard stories about people who listen to this podcast while going through a separation
[01:13:11] or being in the hospital for something or just commuting.
[01:13:25] And then, of course, the major part of the listeners are listening to Fall Asleep with Hendrick Wilde,
[01:13:32] trying to fall asleep.
[01:13:34] And it's such an honor to be a part of your very personal routine.
[01:13:41] I can't emphasize enough the thrill and the joy that I feel when you tell me
[01:13:55] that I am actually a part of your bedtime routine.
[01:14:00] It's such an honor.
[01:14:04] And I have to pinch myself sometimes just to make sure I'm not dreaming because I've had so many jobs.
[01:14:16] Well, not so many different types of jobs.
[01:14:20] Mainly, I've been working with acting and writing for the past 30 years or so.
[01:14:26] But, I mean, I've done so much.
[01:14:31] And this is by far the most enjoyable job I've ever had.
[01:14:41] So thank you, Sleepy, for being here with me and to give in my life and for giving my life purpose.
[01:14:53] I really want to thank you for that in particular.
[01:14:58] That you're giving my life some meaning, you know.
[01:15:02] Right now, I'm going through a very intense, troublesome and exciting and scary and sad passage of my own life.
[01:15:19] And to know that you're here, even my life purpose is, I mean, it's such a great thing.
[01:15:31] It's like the sun exploding in my chest when I think about what I get to do every day.
[01:15:41] So, again, I'm starting to sound like a broken record.
[01:15:46] But, again, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
[01:15:56] Okay, so I don't have any particular plan on what this episode's topic should be.
[01:16:04] I mean, I could talk about anything from green barbershop hats
[01:16:15] to Transylvanian maids singing and dancing in the grand entrance of the castle,
[01:16:22] which I think is a very good thing.
[01:16:25] I mean, Transylvanian maids, as you know, are a very strong union-connected group.
[01:16:34] The Transylvanian maid union is like, it's so much stronger than any screenwriters guild or whatever.
[01:16:53] So, I'm going to tell you a story about Transylvanian maids
[01:16:59] and their very strong sense of connectedness and pride.
[01:17:09] So, first of all, Transylvanian maids are not just women.
[01:17:13] It's a gender-neutral job.
[01:17:19] And as the name suggests, it's about housekeeping mostly and gardening, but mostly housekeeping.
[01:17:32] And the Transylvanian maids, from now on, I will just refer to them as the maids
[01:17:39] because that's what they are.
[01:17:42] I mean, I don't go around telling you that I'm Swedish like in the start of every sentence,
[01:17:50] although I am.
[01:17:52] I mean, that fact doesn't change just because I don't mention it once in a while.
[01:17:57] But in case you missed it, I am from Sweden.
[01:18:00] I live in Stockholm, Sweden.
[01:18:05] And I am not from here.
[01:18:08] I am from a little place in Sweden called FĂĄlon, which is a small city with an old mine,
[01:18:19] with an old copper mine.
[01:18:22] That's...
[01:18:23] Well, I don't think they still get copper from there,
[01:18:28] but I have heard rumors that there's silver there now.
[01:18:33] Anyway, it's like from the 15th century or something.
[01:18:38] The mine.
[01:18:40] The legend has it that there was this buck who was out on the mountain,
[01:18:44] and the buck was named KÄre.
[01:18:48] And the buck scraped his horns against the rock and came home to his owner
[01:18:53] with the horns bearing this reddish tint.
[01:19:00] And the owner was like,
[01:19:03] Oh my God, there's copper in the ground.
[01:19:05] We need to harvest this before anyone else tells us.
[01:19:08] And this copper mine in FĂĄlon, Dalarna, Sweden,
[01:19:16] was actually a part of this vast network in Dalarna,
[01:19:22] where it became some sort of an economic center
[01:19:26] and this huge economic power during a few hundred years.
[01:19:33] But growing up there, I never saw any traces of this.
[01:19:37] I never saw the wealth.
[01:19:42] It wasn't really distributed.
[01:19:45] And when I was a kid, the mine was about to close
[01:19:49] after hundreds of years of mining.
[01:19:57] So, okay, but that's me.
[01:20:02] And I'm from Sweden.
[01:20:04] Did I mention that?
[01:20:05] Did I mention that I'm from Sweden?
[01:20:07] I'm this little, blonde, exotic, blue-eyed boy from Sweden.
[01:20:14] And I'm 49 years old.
[01:20:18] Yet I am still somewhat of a boy.
[01:20:23] And that's...
[01:20:24] I've been talking about this extensively in another episode called Boy.
[01:20:30] Boy.
[01:20:32] And it's...
[01:20:37] You can listen to that.
[01:20:40] It's one of my more popular episodes.
[01:20:43] So maybe that was the peak of my career as an international podcaster.
[01:20:49] I don't know.
[01:20:54] Okay, so before I start talking more about the Transylvanian maids
[01:21:00] and their very strong sense of connectedness to each other
[01:21:05] and their lore, you know, and their branch.
[01:21:13] I want to tell you about my goals with this podcast.
[01:21:20] My goals with this podcast is to reach one million listeners within a year.
[01:21:27] And that's a very ambitious goal.
[01:21:31] And if you have it in you, I would really appreciate your help.
[01:21:36] If you like this podcast, tell your friends about it.
[01:21:39] Share it in social media.
[01:21:42] Write reviews on the platform where you listen.
[01:21:46] That helps.
[01:21:48] Every little bit helps.
[01:21:49] And that is if you feel that it's worth your while.
[01:21:53] Well, I've decided to give this project a year.
[01:21:59] I don't really need it economically because I have this very big Swedish podcast
[01:22:05] that keeps me alive, you know, keeps food coming.
[01:22:13] But I am so excited about this and I really would like it to grow.
[01:22:18] I would really like it to be like a part of this.
[01:22:22] I would really like me to be a part of this huge community gathering around this very odd type of content
[01:22:32] where someone just talks without any really not preparing anything.
[01:22:42] I don't have an agenda.
[01:22:45] I mean, even the so-called agenda to put you to sleep is not really an agenda.
[01:22:51] Because I don't really care.
[01:22:54] I just want you to feel good.
[01:22:57] I just want you to feel okay, you know.
[01:23:02] That's my only thing.
[01:23:05] That's my only goal, my only agenda.
[01:23:07] But if I don't succeed, that's okay too.
[01:23:14] Because I can't possibly think that I, little me, could ever be able to do that to everyone.
[01:23:26] So it's a strike of luck if I reach you right now.
[01:23:30] And that's why I want to reach out to more people like you.
[01:23:34] So my goal is to reach one million people listening to this podcast within a year from like two months ago.
[01:23:42] Two months ago.
[01:23:44] So say in May or June next year, I'm going to make this convention thing, intervention thing with myself
[01:23:59] where I ask myself, is this really worth your while?
[01:24:02] Is this really worth your time?
[01:24:03] Have you gotten anything out of it?
[01:24:06] I mean in a personal way.
[01:24:12] So that's why I keep telling you to write to me, tell me about yourself, your day, your use cases of fall asleep with Hendrik.
[01:24:26] Okay.
[01:24:28] So that being said, I'm now going to enter the realm of the Transylvanian maids and their questionable life choices.
[01:24:41] Because they are really a bunch, you know?
[01:24:47] They're not that many people.
[01:24:49] It's around 200 people.
[01:24:52] And the occupation is inherited.
[01:24:55] So you don't get to choose it.
[01:24:58] It's like royalty in a way.
[01:25:02] You inherit this job from your mother or your father, depending on which one of them had the occupation.
[01:25:10] Sometimes both parents have it.
[01:25:13] I mean, that's more of a rule than an exception.
[01:25:15] Because they are...
[01:25:18] It's a very...
[01:25:20] It's a force of habit.
[01:25:23] You know, it's a...
[01:25:25] It's something that you really can't ignore growing up with a maid in your family.
[01:25:32] A Transylvanian maid, that is.
[01:25:33] I would like to emphasize that a Transylvanian maid is not the same thing as, like, what you normally think of when you hear the word maid.
[01:25:45] When you hear the word maid, maybe you think about a servant.
[01:25:49] Someone who's...
[01:25:52] Someone who may or may not be in the care of a family with a room in the family house.
[01:26:01] Being a part of the family, but still not ever really being a part of the family.
[01:26:09] And maybe you think of inequality and oppression.
[01:26:16] And...
[01:26:18] An old way of living that's not really...
[01:26:24] Well, it's not really...
[01:26:26] It doesn't really do anything anymore.
[01:26:31] But a Transylvanian maid in this made-up case.
[01:26:35] Because I want to emphasize again that this...
[01:26:38] The thing that I'm saying that this is a Transylvanian maid thing.
[01:26:42] I don't know anything about Transylvania.
[01:26:45] And this is not a comment on anything I've read or heard or think or believe.
[01:26:52] So...
[01:26:53] It's just random that I took the place of Transylvania and the occupation of maid.
[01:27:00] But now, here I am.
[01:27:03] Started out with talking about Transylvanian maids dancing in the hallway together.
[01:27:10] So, the Transylvanian maids are a very closely bounded together group that lives in a castle in Transylvania.
[01:27:23] All 200 of them.
[01:27:24] And they take turns being the ruler of the castle.
[01:27:31] And it's very democratic.
[01:27:34] It's...
[01:27:34] You vote for someone to be this year's overmaid.
[01:27:42] And you take...
[01:27:45] And then you take turns of being like suppliants.
[01:27:51] What do you call it?
[01:27:52] Someone who is like assistance to the overmaid.
[01:27:58] And so that everyone gets to be close to power.
[01:28:00] But power itself is something that you're being voted into.
[01:28:06] So, every year, the overmaid is trying to get re-elected.
[01:28:10] But the overmaid can only be re-elected for 465 years in a row.
[01:28:17] Which is...
[01:28:19] Like in maid time, it's...
[01:28:23] A second, really.
[01:28:25] But if you and I were to enter this castle, which is called HeckelbrĂŒcken, Ossum, Pfeffers, Lachen, Bachan, Baden, Andersie,
[01:28:34] then you would, of course, feel like it was actual...
[01:28:41] Because it's actual 465 years.
[01:28:45] Like real years with 365 days each.
[01:28:53] So, that's...
[01:28:55] I mean, it's a weird thing.
[01:28:57] But then again, maid...
[01:28:59] Being a maid is a weird thing.
[01:29:02] It's really...
[01:29:03] I mean, when I think of maids, I think of this...
[01:29:07] It's always a woman, of course.
[01:29:09] And it's...
[01:29:10] They have a black dress with a white apron.
[01:29:13] And maybe something white.
[01:29:16] Like this little hat on their head.
[01:29:20] Just to tell people their status.
[01:29:25] But that's like a 1920s, 1800...
[01:29:30] No, 1900 century thing.
[01:29:37] As you can tell, my English suddenly just drops.
[01:29:40] And I don't find any word at all.
[01:29:42] And that's where you can hear me say stuff like...
[01:29:47] I taste good food mouth good food.
[01:29:52] You know?
[01:29:55] But I hope you'll excuse my endeavors in that matter.
[01:30:00] Sometimes I think I'm really flowing, you know?
[01:30:04] Sometimes I surprise myself...
[01:30:08] Being able to improvise like this...
[01:30:10] In my second language.
[01:30:13] Which I don't know fluently.
[01:30:15] I need to think between every word.
[01:30:18] And afterwards, I'm like really exhausted.
[01:30:22] Because it's...
[01:30:25] I use my brain in a new way.
[01:30:27] Doing this in English.
[01:30:32] But I really enjoy it.
[01:30:34] I really do.
[01:30:36] So...
[01:30:39] Well...
[01:30:40] Well, let's just say that you're a maid.
[01:30:43] In this maid household.
[01:30:45] And you get elected.
[01:30:46] You have been doing this...
[01:30:49] Like...
[01:30:50] Like...
[01:30:50] Election campaign for the last year.
[01:30:52] Like if you're ever elected, you need to campaign like for the whole year.
[01:30:57] At...
[01:30:58] At the same time as you...
[01:31:00] Do your chores.
[01:31:01] Like being the boss.
[01:31:03] The president of the castle.
[01:31:04] The president of the household.
[01:31:06] And then you have this 199 other maids...
[01:31:10] Under you that...
[01:31:11] Perform tasks and...
[01:31:13] Maintenance and...
[01:31:15] Just keep up.
[01:31:16] You know...
[01:31:18] Run the everyday business.
[01:31:20] And you...
[01:31:20] You get to strategize and...
[01:31:23] Stake out the future for the...
[01:31:26] Whole...
[01:31:27] Group.
[01:31:31] So in this castle...
[01:31:33] HeckelbrĂŒcken och som pfeffer...
[01:31:34] Slachen, Bachen, Baden, Anders Se...
[01:31:35] There are...
[01:31:37] 465 rooms.
[01:31:40] Each of the rooms are like...
[01:31:42] Very unique and...
[01:31:44] Personally...
[01:31:46] Decorated and furnished.
[01:31:49] Because...
[01:31:50] Every room...
[01:31:52] Regardless of...
[01:31:54] There being a...
[01:31:55] Maid living there or not...
[01:31:57] Is...
[01:31:58] Like made...
[01:31:59] For this particular person that lived...
[01:32:02] 200 years ago.
[01:32:04] So 200 years ago this...
[01:32:07] Group of maids...
[01:32:10] Started...
[01:32:11] They got together and they formed this...
[01:32:14] Community of maids.
[01:32:15] And they started this...
[01:32:17] Very democratic system where you...
[01:32:20] Vote for the...
[01:32:21] Over maid...
[01:32:23] Each year.
[01:32:26] And...
[01:32:27] You...
[01:32:28] So...
[01:32:29] All of the rooms are like...
[01:32:31] Preserved...
[01:32:33] From the original...
[01:32:35] Maid who lived there.
[01:32:36] Because in the beginning...
[01:32:37] There were...
[01:32:38] 465 maids...
[01:32:41] And...
[01:32:41] 465 years...
[01:32:44] Each...
[01:32:44] Mandate period.
[01:32:48] And...
[01:32:49] So...
[01:32:50] The number...
[01:32:50] 465 is the thing you really should take away from this episode.
[01:32:54] Because it's a very symbolic and meaningful number...
[01:32:57] That you really, really, really should pay attention to...
[01:33:01] If you want to listen to...
[01:33:03] Like this...
[01:33:06] Sad little podcast host from Sweden...
[01:33:08] Who doesn't really know what he's talking about...
[01:33:10] Then you should really...
[01:33:12] Really, really, really...
[01:33:13] And I can't emphasize this enough without...
[01:33:16] Knowing anything about anything...
[01:33:19] You should really pay attention to the number...
[01:33:23] 465...
[01:33:24] Because...
[01:33:25] I don't know why...
[01:33:27] And...
[01:33:27] Of course...
[01:33:28] Everything I say...
[01:33:29] Is a fantasy...
[01:33:30] And you don't have to take anything I say seriously...
[01:33:40] So...
[01:33:43] Hi, sleepy...
[01:33:44] Are you still awake?
[01:33:47] I am...
[01:33:50] And...
[01:33:52] I have actually been known...
[01:33:56] For falling asleep during my episodes from time to time...
[01:34:01] I...
[01:34:03] Especially in the beginning...
[01:34:04] In the Swedish version of this podcast...
[01:34:06] I fell asleep during the episodes...
[01:34:08] Because...
[01:34:09] I couldn't really keep my thoughts apart from dreaming...
[01:34:12] Because the process when I do this is...
[01:34:16] Sort of like I'm dreaming...
[01:34:18] I...
[01:34:19] Just see things flowing through my brain...
[01:34:23] And I...
[01:34:24] Tell them out loud...
[01:34:25] And the...
[01:34:26] Hard part...
[01:34:27] Of doing this...
[01:34:28] Is to actually...
[01:34:31] Verbalize...
[01:34:33] The images...
[01:34:34] Feelings and thoughts...
[01:34:35] That drift through my brain...
[01:34:37] In real time...
[01:34:40] Because sometimes...
[01:34:41] It changes...
[01:34:42] Extremely quickly...
[01:34:44] And I can't really keep up...
[01:34:46] And then I need to just...
[01:34:48] Talk about something...
[01:34:49] Like anything...
[01:34:50] It may be...
[01:34:52] Not even from my own mind...
[01:34:54] Maybe it's just something I see...
[01:34:55] Like for instance...
[01:34:56] Right now...
[01:34:57] I'm looking at this...
[01:34:59] Curtain in the front of my door...
[01:35:01] Into my studio...
[01:35:02] And it's like...
[01:35:05] Brownish...
[01:35:05] Sound isolating...
[01:35:09] Cloth...
[01:35:11] And...
[01:35:11] You know...
[01:35:13] Just...
[01:35:13] To be able to...
[01:35:15] Avoid...
[01:35:16] Falling down into the...
[01:35:17] Abyss...
[01:35:18] That is sleep...
[01:35:21] And...
[01:35:21] Don't run off now...
[01:35:23] Yelling from the top of a tower that...
[01:35:26] This guy...
[01:35:27] This Swedish guy is...
[01:35:30] Comparing sleep to an abyss...
[01:35:32] And I don't feel like sleeping anymore...
[01:35:34] Because that scared the living crap out of me...
[01:35:36] I just wanna say that...
[01:35:39] Well...
[01:35:40] Abysses are real...
[01:35:42] You are real...
[01:35:43] The universe is real...
[01:35:46] Everything you know...
[01:35:47] Is real...
[01:35:49] In one way or another...
[01:35:51] And why wouldn't you...
[01:35:53] Be able to...
[01:35:54] Get along...
[01:35:55] For just some...
[01:35:57] Short period of time...
[01:35:59] So if you just compare yourself...
[01:36:02] Standing next to an abyss...
[01:36:04] If you just...
[01:36:05] Compare yourself...
[01:36:07] By the abyss...
[01:36:08] With yourself...
[01:36:09] Comfortable in the bed...
[01:36:11] Surrounded by loved ones...
[01:36:15] Both of the images are equally true...
[01:36:17] Because you are indeed...
[01:36:19] Next to an abyss...
[01:36:21] In so many aspects of that...
[01:36:24] Image...
[01:36:25] And you are indeed...
[01:36:27] Comfortable and safe...
[01:36:28] And we can be all of that...
[01:36:30] At the same time...
[01:36:31] And I love that...
[01:36:33] About...
[01:36:33] Life...
[01:36:34] That there's so many things going on at once...
[01:36:43] So...
[01:36:45] Right now...
[01:36:46] The overmaid is called...
[01:36:49] Delilah...
[01:36:49] And...
[01:36:50] Delilah is...
[01:36:52] A...
[01:36:53] 68 year old woman...
[01:36:57] With dark skin...
[01:37:00] Brown eyes...
[01:37:02] Curly hair...
[01:37:04] And...
[01:37:06] A nose ring...
[01:37:09] And...
[01:37:10] If you think that...
[01:37:11] The maids in this castle...
[01:37:13] Have like...
[01:37:13] Maid costumes...
[01:37:14] And such...
[01:37:15] Well...
[01:37:16] It's a...
[01:37:16] It's true in a way...
[01:37:18] Because...
[01:37:18] The undermaids...
[01:37:20] Because this is a very...
[01:37:23] Hierarchical...
[01:37:23] What do you call it?
[01:37:26] Hierarchy...
[01:37:26] It's a...
[01:37:27] Oh god...
[01:37:30] Sometimes...
[01:37:33] Hierarchical...
[01:37:34] Hierarchy...
[01:37:35] Hierarchical...
[01:37:36] Well...
[01:37:37] It's a status...
[01:37:40] Imposed society...
[01:37:42] But...
[01:37:42] It's always changing...
[01:37:44] So...
[01:37:45] Undermaid...
[01:37:46] You're only an undermaid for like...
[01:37:48] The first...
[01:37:51] 90 days...
[01:37:52] And then you get to be a maid...
[01:37:54] A regular maid...
[01:37:54] And within the maid community...
[01:37:56] You circulate...
[01:37:57] Doing different...
[01:37:58] Businesses...
[01:37:58] And the only reason that...
[01:38:00] You're an undermaid...
[01:38:01] Is that...
[01:38:01] You're underpaid...
[01:38:03] So an underpaid...
[01:38:04] Undermaid...
[01:38:05] Is...
[01:38:08] Really...
[01:38:10] So that...
[01:38:12] You get humble...
[01:38:12] When you go to baid...
[01:38:15] An underpaid...
[01:38:16] Undermaid...
[01:38:17] Is humble...
[01:38:18] When it's go...
[01:38:18] It goes to baid...
[01:38:21] And I mean bed...
[01:38:22] But I just said baid...
[01:38:24] Because...
[01:38:24] It was supposed to rhyme...
[01:38:31] Oh god...
[01:38:36] So...
[01:38:38] Yeah...
[01:38:39] So everything circulates...
[01:38:42] But Delilah...
[01:38:44] She has been...
[01:38:47] Like...
[01:38:47] So the undermaids...
[01:38:48] They have real...
[01:38:49] Actual maid costumes...
[01:38:51] Like you would recognize in any...
[01:38:54] Like...
[01:38:54] Dress up party thing...
[01:38:57] But...
[01:38:57] As soon as you become a regular maid...
[01:39:00] Or even an overmaid...
[01:39:01] Or like this assistant...
[01:39:03] You can...
[01:39:04] You get to dress like...
[01:39:05] Whatever you want...
[01:39:06] In any way...
[01:39:07] Or shape you want...
[01:39:09] So Delilah is...
[01:39:12] Like...
[01:39:13] Very confident...
[01:39:14] And she's been the overmaid for...
[01:39:17] 16 years now...
[01:39:18] Which is...
[01:39:19] Not very long...
[01:39:20] Considering you can sit for...
[01:39:22] 465 years...
[01:39:24] But...
[01:39:24] Then again...
[01:39:25] It's maid years...
[01:39:26] So for maids...
[01:39:27] That is like...
[01:39:28] Just a few days...
[01:39:31] It means that Delilah...
[01:39:33] Is...
[01:39:33] Living a very slow life...
[01:39:36] And all of the other maids as well...
[01:39:39] Well...
[01:39:39] Maybe the undermaids are a bit faster...
[01:39:43] But...
[01:39:45] That's just because they have more to do...
[01:39:48] Because...
[01:39:48] The undermaids are doing much of the...
[01:39:51] Groundwork...
[01:39:52] Really...
[01:39:53] The messy things...
[01:39:55] And...
[01:39:56] That's unfair...
[01:39:57] But...
[01:39:57] The good thing is that...
[01:39:58] You...
[01:39:59] You just have a limited time doing that...
[01:40:01] And then there are new maids being recruited...
[01:40:04] As the old ones...
[01:40:06] Get old and die...
[01:40:10] And...
[01:40:11] As it should...
[01:40:13] You know...
[01:40:13] And that's equally...
[01:40:16] Comforting for...
[01:40:17] To me...
[01:40:18] For me to know...
[01:40:20] That...
[01:40:21] There is an order of things...
[01:40:22] And that I'm a part of it...
[01:40:24] And I really love that...
[01:40:27] One day there will be this...
[01:40:29] Very young...
[01:40:32] Ambitious...
[01:40:33] Flaming person...
[01:40:35] And I will look at this person...
[01:40:37] And I will...
[01:40:39] Tell myself that...
[01:40:40] This is the one...
[01:40:42] Who should be doing what I do now...
[01:40:46] And...
[01:40:47] Then I will say...
[01:40:48] Do you want to do this...
[01:40:50] With your life?
[01:40:51] And then that person...
[01:40:53] In an ideal world...
[01:40:54] Would say...
[01:40:55] Yes, that would be an honor...
[01:40:56] And then I would say...
[01:40:58] Then go do it...
[01:40:59] And then I would cease...
[01:41:00] You know...
[01:41:04] I don't have any illusions of...
[01:41:06] Someone else...
[01:41:08] Taking over my line of work...
[01:41:09] I was talking about it...
[01:41:11] In a more symbolic way...
[01:41:12] And of course...
[01:41:13] This has to do with having a child...
[01:41:15] You know...
[01:41:15] That's really what it's all about...
[01:41:20] Having a child...
[01:41:21] Is like being the bow...
[01:41:22] That shoots the arrow...
[01:41:24] So as soon as the arrow is out in the air...
[01:41:27] The bow is sort of meaningless...
[01:41:29] The only difference is that...
[01:41:32] Me as the bow...
[01:41:33] I am also a human...
[01:41:35] And...
[01:41:36] I have this...
[01:41:38] Time left...
[01:41:39] As my daughter grows up...
[01:41:42] I now have...
[01:41:44] Like...
[01:41:45] This time...
[01:41:47] That I really don't know what to do with...
[01:41:50] And I want to fill it with purpose...
[01:41:55] I really want to fill it with...
[01:41:57] Purpose...
[01:42:02] Carrying and being carried...
[01:42:07] Like...
[01:42:08] Saying hi to someone...
[01:42:11] You know...
[01:42:12] Pretending not to know them...
[01:42:15] Just...
[01:42:16] Like a game...
[01:42:20] Like a very exciting game...
[01:42:28] Okay sorry...
[01:42:29] I'm...
[01:42:30] Spacing out...
[01:42:34] So...
[01:42:35] Delilah is living a very slow life...
[01:42:37] That's where I left you...
[01:42:39] Uh...
[01:42:40] She's...
[01:42:43] Like...
[01:42:44] If you can imagine...
[01:42:45] Like this Greenland whale...
[01:42:47] That's been swimming in the ocean...
[01:42:49] Since the...
[01:42:52] 1600s...
[01:42:54] And...
[01:42:55] Well that's true...
[01:42:57] Because they get really old...
[01:42:59] I mean there are...
[01:43:00] Greenland whales...
[01:43:02] Right now...
[01:43:03] Who lived at the same time as...
[01:43:07] William Shakespeare...
[01:43:10] Who...
[01:43:11] Seen...
[01:43:11] Like...
[01:43:12] Almost...
[01:43:14] Any...
[01:43:14] War in modern history...
[01:43:16] Will not seen...
[01:43:17] Because they don't see...
[01:43:19] Like that...
[01:43:19] They are in...
[01:43:21] Deep waters...
[01:43:22] And they don't...
[01:43:23] Pay any attention to what...
[01:43:24] We as...
[01:43:25] The human community are doing...
[01:43:28] And...
[01:43:28] That's a good thing I guess...
[01:43:30] Because I...
[01:43:30] I can't imagine them...
[01:43:32] Living this long...
[01:43:33] If they were caught up in our...
[01:43:36] Messy endeavors...
[01:43:42] But...
[01:43:43] That's Delilah for you...
[01:43:45] She's just...
[01:43:46] This...
[01:43:47] Slow...
[01:43:48] Swimming...
[01:43:48] Greenland whale...
[01:43:50] Sitting in her...
[01:43:51] Overmade office...
[01:43:54] Meditating...
[01:43:55] Like...
[01:43:56] Constantly...
[01:43:58] Like...
[01:43:59] Legs crossed...
[01:44:01] Hands on your knees...
[01:44:03] Eyes closed...
[01:44:04] On a pillow on the ground...
[01:44:07] She's meditating...
[01:44:09] Like...
[01:44:09] She's constantly aware...
[01:44:14] And...
[01:44:14] I mean...
[01:44:15] That's really the aim of meditating...
[01:44:17] As far as I...
[01:44:19] As far as I'm concerned...
[01:44:21] I don't even know what I'm talking about right now...
[01:44:25] I've been meditating for a year...
[01:44:27] And I'm totally caught up in it...
[01:44:29] And...
[01:44:30] The idea of being...
[01:44:32] Aware...
[01:44:34] I love the idea of awareness being this...
[01:44:38] Ungrippable...
[01:44:40] Space...
[01:44:41] Within...
[01:44:42] And outside...
[01:44:43] That I can just dwell in...
[01:44:46] You know...
[01:44:47] That I can just activate...
[01:44:50] Knowledge of...
[01:44:52] But I don't really know...
[01:44:54] But Delilah too...
[01:44:56] She's such a great meditator...
[01:44:59] And she's come to this point...
[01:45:00] Where she doesn't...
[01:45:01] Really need to sit...
[01:45:03] Or lie down...
[01:45:04] And close her eyes...
[01:45:05] And focus on her breathing...
[01:45:07] And stuff like that...
[01:45:08] Because that's all objects of meditation...
[01:45:10] And...
[01:45:11] Anything can be an object...
[01:45:13] Of meditation...
[01:45:15] So she's focusing on her feelings...
[01:45:19] And she lets her feelings...
[01:45:21] Whatever character the feeling is like...
[01:45:24] Shaped...
[01:45:26] Like...
[01:45:27] And...
[01:45:29] She's focusing...
[01:45:31] And making her...
[01:45:32] Current emotion...
[01:45:34] The anchor of her...
[01:45:36] Constant 24-7 meditation...
[01:45:42] So this doesn't mean that she's not...
[01:45:46] Involved...
[01:45:47] In the castle's everyday business...
[01:45:50] This doesn't mean that she's in this secluded room...
[01:45:54] Behind a curtain...
[01:45:55] Sitting on the floor...
[01:45:56] Just breathing...
[01:45:58] She's active...
[01:45:59] But yeah...
[01:46:00] Because you can be...
[01:46:02] You can be active...
[01:46:03] While meditating...
[01:46:06] It's...
[01:46:07] Something of a myth...
[01:46:08] That you just have to sit...
[01:46:10] Like...
[01:46:11] Legs crossed...
[01:46:12] And just...
[01:46:15] Surround yourself with...
[01:46:19] Maddest...
[01:46:20] Cozy...
[01:46:20] Soft...
[01:46:21] Things...
[01:46:22] Just to get away from the world...
[01:46:23] It helps...
[01:46:25] When you're not...
[01:46:26] When you're...
[01:46:28] Learning how to meditate...
[01:46:29] But the goal...
[01:46:31] Really is...
[01:46:32] At least for me...
[01:46:33] And...
[01:46:34] Other meditators...
[01:46:36] Is...
[01:46:37] Like...
[01:46:38] This should be a constant...
[01:46:39] Ongoing thing...
[01:46:41] Where...
[01:46:41] You are aware...
[01:46:43] Of what's...
[01:46:43] Happening...
[01:46:44] At every given moment...
[01:46:46] And you don't...
[01:46:47] You get to be more agile...
[01:46:49] In your mind...
[01:46:50] You can choose...
[01:46:52] What you want to connect with...
[01:46:54] What you want to...
[01:46:55] Attach yourself to...
[01:47:00] Because...
[01:47:01] There are...
[01:47:02] Stuff...
[01:47:03] In the world...
[01:47:04] That you really want to attach yourself to...
[01:47:06] Like for instance...
[01:47:07] There's this one recurring feeling in me...
[01:47:09] Right now...
[01:47:10] Every morning when I wake up...
[01:47:12] I...
[01:47:13] I am...
[01:47:14] Overwhelmed by that feeling...
[01:47:17] And...
[01:47:17] I get to...
[01:47:19] Choose...
[01:47:19] To attach to it...
[01:47:22] And...
[01:47:22] That's a powerful thing...
[01:47:24] To choose...
[01:47:25] Because I now know...
[01:47:26] That I can choose...
[01:47:27] What feeling I want to attach to...
[01:47:30] Something...
[01:47:30] Sometimes it's...
[01:47:31] Really hard not to attach...
[01:47:33] To stuff...
[01:47:34] But this particular feeling...
[01:47:37] It's really...
[01:47:39] Really...
[01:47:40] A magical thing...
[01:47:41] To...
[01:47:43] Just allow yourself...
[01:47:45] To ride that wagon...
[01:47:47] To ride that...
[01:47:49] Rollercoaster for a while...
[01:47:53] And then you...
[01:47:54] Get to step off the rollercoaster...
[01:47:56] And you go downstairs...
[01:47:57] And you have coffee...
[01:47:59] And life is so beautiful...
[01:48:01] You know...
[01:48:03] Because you've...
[01:48:04] You're in control of...
[01:48:06] What you want...
[01:48:08] To engage in...
[01:48:10] And I'm not talking about...
[01:48:12] Like putting up walls...
[01:48:14] And...
[01:48:14] Forbidding yourself to feel stuff...
[01:48:16] Because you can't...
[01:48:17] You can't forbid yourself...
[01:48:20] From...
[01:48:21] Thinking or feeling stuff...
[01:48:22] Well you can try...
[01:48:24] But...
[01:48:24] It'll hurt you...
[01:48:26] I have tried...
[01:48:27] For so many years of my life...
[01:48:30] There are so many things...
[01:48:32] That I just left...
[01:48:34] Unnoticed...
[01:48:36] Or...
[01:48:36] That I didn't want to look at...
[01:48:38] Because...
[01:48:39] The hurt was too big...
[01:48:41] The hurt was too great...
[01:48:43] And...
[01:48:44] I told myself...
[01:48:45] That if I just...
[01:48:48] Ripped the door...
[01:48:51] Put...
[01:48:52] Brick...
[01:48:53] In front of it...
[01:48:55] That it would go away...
[01:49:00] It's...
[01:49:00] I mean...
[01:49:01] Feelings and thoughts are...
[01:49:05] Grusively...
[01:49:07] Astonishing...
[01:49:07] Powerful things...
[01:49:09] That can break down...
[01:49:10] Almost any wall...
[01:49:13] And that...
[01:49:14] Delilah knows...
[01:49:15] She's sitting in her office...
[01:49:18] And she's out...
[01:49:19] With the other maids...
[01:49:20] Doing stuff...
[01:49:22] They play a lot...
[01:49:24] And...
[01:49:25] Now I'm gonna get to the part...
[01:49:26] Where they're dancing in the hallway...
[01:49:30] So they have this dance...
[01:49:32] Every morning...
[01:49:33] The maids...
[01:49:35] Put on their clothes...
[01:49:37] And they join...
[01:49:39] Together in the great...
[01:49:41] Atrium...
[01:49:41] Down in the hall...
[01:49:43] And...
[01:49:44] There's this...
[01:49:46] Pool...
[01:49:47] This very shallow pool...
[01:49:48] In the...
[01:49:50] Atrium...
[01:49:51] That...
[01:49:51] With a small...
[01:49:53] Very...
[01:49:55] Soft...
[01:49:57] Silent...
[01:50:00] Fountain...
[01:50:01] In the middle...
[01:50:02] Which just...
[01:50:05] Splurs...
[01:50:05] Water...
[01:50:06] Like...
[01:50:06] A centimeter up...
[01:50:08] So it's just a little...
[01:50:09] A small...
[01:50:11] Very weak...
[01:50:12] Splashing sound...
[01:50:13] From this...
[01:50:14] And...
[01:50:15] The only thing it really does...
[01:50:16] Is that it...
[01:50:17] It...
[01:50:18] Provides...
[01:50:18] Like this...
[01:50:19] Some sort of...
[01:50:20] Presence in this very...
[01:50:23] Big...
[01:50:23] Atrium...
[01:50:24] Which...
[01:50:24] Otherwise would be...
[01:50:25] A bit...
[01:50:27] Overwhelming...
[01:50:28] I think...
[01:50:28] Because it's stone...
[01:50:31] Stone...
[01:50:32] Vaults...
[01:50:33] You know...
[01:50:33] Around it...
[01:50:39] So...
[01:50:41] There...
[01:50:41] The maids gather every morning...
[01:50:43] And they do the morning dance...
[01:50:45] And that was what I was referring to...
[01:50:47] When talking about...
[01:50:49] Maids...
[01:50:50] Dancing in the hallway...
[01:50:53] And they...
[01:50:54] Dance like...
[01:50:56] At first they're very stiff...
[01:50:59] Because you're always very stiff in the morning...
[01:51:01] Regardless of age and form...
[01:51:04] So...
[01:51:05] They need to stretch...
[01:51:06] So they bend forward...
[01:51:08] And...
[01:51:09] Make their...
[01:51:11] Spines like...
[01:51:14] Stretch out...
[01:51:18] Unfold...
[01:51:19] You know...
[01:51:20] And then they stretch backwards...
[01:51:22] And then there's always this...
[01:51:26] Creaking...
[01:51:26] Sound from their bones...
[01:51:28] When doing that...
[01:51:29] And...
[01:51:30] Then they start to dance...
[01:51:32] So they...
[01:51:33] Hook arms...
[01:51:37] Sorry...
[01:51:37] What do you call it?
[01:51:38] When you...
[01:51:38] When you take...
[01:51:41] When you take...
[01:51:42] Each other under the arm...
[01:51:44] Like...
[01:51:44] You make a...
[01:51:46] Some sort of a hook...
[01:51:47] With your arm...
[01:51:47] And you hook that hook into...
[01:51:49] You attach that hook into the other person's...
[01:51:52] Arm hook...
[01:51:53] And then you dance around...
[01:51:55] You know...
[01:51:56] And the music is like...
[01:51:59] It's very weird...
[01:52:03] Mishmash...
[01:52:05] Between...
[01:52:07] Irish folk music...
[01:52:09] And...
[01:52:10] Death metal...
[01:52:11] Like...
[01:52:12] Texas death metal...
[01:52:14] If there is such a thing...
[01:52:16] And...
[01:52:18] If you're...
[01:52:20] Please...
[01:52:21] Just...
[01:52:21] Share with me some...
[01:52:23] Texas death metal bands...
[01:52:25] If you have it in you...
[01:52:26] If you know...
[01:52:26] Some Texas death metal bands...
[01:52:30] Then...
[01:52:31] Please...
[01:52:31] Just...
[01:52:32] Tell me about it...
[01:52:34] Uh...
[01:52:35] Not because I like it...
[01:52:37] But because I want to give you jobs and...
[01:52:40] Tasks...
[01:52:41] Sometimes...
[01:52:42] In this...
[01:52:43] Podcast...
[01:52:44] Because I really enjoy...
[01:52:45] Making people do random stuff...
[01:52:50] Okay...
[01:52:51] So now I'm gonna give you...
[01:52:52] This weird...
[01:52:54] Random...
[01:52:55] Mission...
[01:52:56] I want to...
[01:52:58] This only applies...
[01:52:59] If you have someone in bed with you...
[01:53:02] And...
[01:53:03] I don't want you to do anything that...
[01:53:06] Makes other...
[01:53:07] Makes someone else upset...
[01:53:08] Or sad...
[01:53:09] Or whatever...
[01:53:10] So...
[01:53:11] Do this only if you can...
[01:53:13] With good conscience...
[01:53:16] And...
[01:53:16] Your sense of morality intact...
[01:53:18] But I want you to turn to that person...
[01:53:21] If someone is next to you...
[01:53:22] Either in bed...
[01:53:23] Or in...
[01:53:23] Like...
[01:53:24] Waken life...
[01:53:25] Environment...
[01:53:26] Somewhere...
[01:53:26] And I want you to...
[01:53:28] Like...
[01:53:29] Get their attention...
[01:53:30] In some way...
[01:53:31] And when you have their attention...
[01:53:32] I want you to stare at them...
[01:53:35] Like...
[01:53:35] Really seriously...
[01:53:37] Stare at them...
[01:53:38] Not in a frightening way...
[01:53:41] But...
[01:53:41] Like this...
[01:53:42] Like you really mean business...
[01:53:43] And then I want you to say...
[01:53:46] With your most...
[01:53:48] Serious voice...
[01:53:50] My mother is a burglar from Boston...
[01:53:56] I mean...
[01:53:58] Don't try to analyze this...
[01:53:59] Because there is no...
[01:54:01] Underlying thought...
[01:54:03] I just...
[01:54:04] Tried to come up with the most nonsensical thing...
[01:54:07] I could ever...
[01:54:08] Imagine...
[01:54:09] But...
[01:54:10] The fun thing about this is...
[01:54:12] That you create...
[01:54:14] Like some sort of...
[01:54:15] Dissonance in the world...
[01:54:17] When you do this...
[01:54:18] It's not a dangerous dissonance...
[01:54:20] It doesn't...
[01:54:21] Hurt anyone...
[01:54:23] It's just confusing...
[01:54:24] And...
[01:54:25] I really think we need...
[01:54:27] Confusing things...
[01:54:28] In the world...
[01:54:30] Because everything is so thought through...
[01:54:33] I mean...
[01:54:34] At least on the surface...
[01:54:35] Because...
[01:54:36] Really...
[01:54:37] No one ever...
[01:54:39] Is truly composed...
[01:54:40] No one...
[01:54:42] Ever really has control...
[01:54:44] It's just that...
[01:54:45] We go around...
[01:54:46] And we pretend to have control...
[01:54:48] We pretend to be...
[01:54:50] In control...
[01:54:52] And to understand...
[01:54:53] Everything that's going on around us...
[01:54:55] Which is like...
[01:54:56] This is so ridiculous...
[01:54:58] That we still think...
[01:55:01] With everything we know...
[01:55:03] About the universe...
[01:55:05] And with everything we know...
[01:55:06] That we definitely don't have any clue about...
[01:55:09] I mean...
[01:55:10] That's the main thing of living today...
[01:55:12] That we know so much...
[01:55:14] But yet...
[01:55:15] What we really know...
[01:55:18] Is that we really don't know anything...
[01:55:21] And that's a difference...
[01:55:24] From like...
[01:55:25] 200 years ago...
[01:55:28] Because by then...
[01:55:29] People thought that they really had...
[01:55:31] All of it figured out...
[01:55:33] But now we know that we don't...
[01:55:36] And we may never...
[01:55:38] Have...
[01:55:39] Everything figured out...
[01:55:41] So that's why...
[01:55:43] I really like...
[01:55:44] Small stuff...
[01:55:46] Of...
[01:55:47] Confusion...
[01:55:47] Being created by...
[01:55:49] Good people...
[01:55:50] Without any intention of harm...
[01:55:54] Just looking at someone...
[01:55:56] And saying that...
[01:55:58] Weird nonsensical thing...
[01:56:00] That your mother is a burglar from Boston...
[01:56:05] It's fun because...
[01:56:06] Boston and burglar...
[01:56:07] Is two good words to put together...
[01:56:10] Because they all...
[01:56:11] Both start with a B...
[01:56:12] So it's an easy thing...
[01:56:14] And yet...
[01:56:15] It's so specific...
[01:56:17] And why would you want to tell someone...
[01:56:19] That your mother is a burglar...
[01:56:21] And why is it important that she's from Boston?
[01:56:25] You know?
[01:56:26] And...
[01:56:27] And...
[01:56:28] What even is a burglar?
[01:56:29] I mean...
[01:56:32] What...
[01:56:33] Is it...
[01:56:34] Is it something that...
[01:56:36] Is it an occupation?
[01:56:37] Or has she just...
[01:56:39] Broke into someone's house like once...
[01:56:41] And stole...
[01:56:42] Like this...
[01:56:44] Handkerchief?
[01:56:46] Or what...
[01:56:47] What do you call it?
[01:56:48] This thing that you wipe your nose with...
[01:56:51] Nose...
[01:56:54] Nose...
[01:56:55] It's cold, Henrik...
[01:56:56] Please try and speak proper English...
[01:56:59] Because your listeners will...
[01:57:01] Abandon you...
[01:57:04] I recently got a few new listeners from India...
[01:57:08] Hello...
[01:57:09] Welcome to my podcast, by the way...
[01:57:12] India is a very exciting country...
[01:57:14] And I...
[01:57:15] I have thought about...
[01:57:18] Like reaching out...
[01:57:20] To more people in India...
[01:57:23] Because...
[01:57:24] There is this...
[01:57:27] I get...
[01:57:28] More and more...
[01:57:31] Also...
[01:57:31] Followers...
[01:57:32] From India...
[01:57:33] So I guess it's just this...
[01:57:37] Maybe I...
[01:57:39] Maybe...
[01:57:40] There is a place for fall asleep...
[01:57:42] With Henrik there...
[01:57:43] So thank you for being here...
[01:57:44] And...
[01:57:45] Thank you for being here...
[01:57:46] Everyone from the States...
[01:57:48] Because...
[01:57:49] The...
[01:57:50] The greatest number of you are...
[01:57:53] So far from the States...
[01:57:55] And...
[01:57:56] England...
[01:57:56] And Canada...
[01:57:57] And then a few of you from Europe...
[01:58:00] And I love you all...
[01:58:06] So...
[01:58:06] I...
[01:58:07] Well this was about to be about the Transylvanian maids...
[01:58:11] Dancing in the hallway...
[01:58:12] And I guess I've reached that...
[01:58:16] I don't have...
[01:58:17] There is no morality...
[01:58:19] To this story...
[01:58:21] There is no...
[01:58:23] There is no...
[01:58:23] Like...
[01:58:24] So that's why you never should wear a hat...
[01:58:27] During...
[01:58:27] Pizza hour...
[01:58:29] Or something like that...
[01:58:31] There is no...
[01:58:34] Moral...
[01:58:34] To the story...
[01:58:36] The only thing I wanted...
[01:58:38] Want you to take...
[01:58:40] With you...
[01:58:41] From this...
[01:58:42] Event...
[01:58:43] Is that...
[01:58:47] What really matters...
[01:58:49] You know...
[01:58:51] We're on this...
[01:58:53] Spinning...
[01:58:54] Rock...
[01:58:57] We don't know why...
[01:59:02] We really have no clue...
[01:59:04] Even what...
[01:59:04] This...
[01:59:06] What we call...
[01:59:07] Existence...
[01:59:08] Really is...
[01:59:09] We can't see outside...
[01:59:11] Outside of it...
[01:59:12] It's just...
[01:59:13] Here...
[01:59:14] That's all we have...
[01:59:15] And...
[01:59:17] The space around us...
[01:59:18] Is expanding in an...
[01:59:20] Ever exhilarating...
[01:59:21] Accelerating...
[01:59:22] Rate...
[01:59:23] And we don't know...
[01:59:24] Why that is either...
[01:59:26] Why does the...
[01:59:27] Rate of the expansion...
[01:59:28] Accelerate?
[01:59:30] Why does...
[01:59:32] Distant galaxies...
[01:59:34] Move away from us...
[01:59:35] In a speed...
[01:59:37] Like in relation to us...
[01:59:39] That even succeeds light...
[01:59:42] I'm not saying that...
[01:59:44] They are actually moving...
[01:59:45] Faster than light...
[01:59:46] Because nothing can really...
[01:59:48] I guess...
[01:59:49] But...
[01:59:52] In relation to us...
[01:59:54] Their speed...
[01:59:55] Their speed...
[01:59:56] Related to us...
[01:59:57] Is...
[01:59:58] Like...
[01:59:59] Double the light...
[02:00:00] Or something...
[02:00:02] And...
[02:00:02] Why is that?
[02:00:04] We don't know...
[02:00:05] So...
[02:00:07] You can feel...
[02:00:08] Scared or small...
[02:00:09] Or...
[02:00:13] Yeah...
[02:00:14] The wind...
[02:00:15] The world can spin around you...
[02:00:17] When you think about those things...
[02:00:20] But you can also choose to just say...
[02:00:25] Okay...
[02:00:29] Okay world...
[02:00:31] I don't know...
[02:00:33] What this is...
[02:00:35] I don't know...
[02:00:36] What the purpose is...
[02:00:38] Or if there even is one...
[02:00:40] Probably not really...
[02:00:42] At least not in a sense that I...
[02:00:44] Put in the word...
[02:00:48] Purpose...
[02:00:51] Okay...
[02:00:53] Maybe there isn't a point...
[02:00:55] Or maybe I just misjudged the whole meaning of the word point...
[02:01:00] In this context...
[02:01:02] Maybe there's just now...
[02:01:05] And maybe there's just...
[02:01:08] Aware...
[02:01:09] You know...
[02:01:10] I'm sitting in a chair...
[02:01:12] Talking to this...
[02:01:14] Person that I don't know...
[02:01:15] On the other side of the world...
[02:01:19] And I...
[02:01:20] Don't know anything else about...
[02:01:23] Why or...
[02:01:25] Where or...
[02:01:27] How...
[02:01:29] The only thing I know is...
[02:01:31] I experience this...
[02:01:36] And coffee is really good...
[02:01:38] And pizza is really good...
[02:01:42] And...
[02:01:43] Love is really great...
[02:01:47] And...
[02:01:51] You sleepy...
[02:01:53] You're the best of them all...
[02:01:56] Good night...
[02:01:58] Hi and welcome to Fall Asleep with Henrik...
[02:02:03] I'm Henrik...
[02:02:04] And...
[02:02:05] As usual...
[02:02:07] You are sleepy...
[02:02:08] That's your name...
[02:02:10] As far as...
[02:02:12] I'm concerned...
[02:02:14] And...
[02:02:15] It is what it is...
[02:02:17] What happens...
[02:02:20] Happens...
[02:02:21] And right now...
[02:02:23] There is nothing you can do...
[02:02:25] Or I can do...
[02:02:26] About it...
[02:02:30] Let's begin...
[02:02:32] Hi sleepy...
[02:02:34] How are you?
[02:02:38] I'm...
[02:02:40] Almost...
[02:02:41] On my back...
[02:02:42] In the chair today...
[02:02:46] I have...
[02:02:47] Like...
[02:02:49] It's very hot...
[02:02:52] Outside...
[02:02:52] Of my...
[02:02:54] Studio...
[02:02:54] Adventure Wolf...
[02:02:55] Today...
[02:02:56] And I...
[02:02:58] Tend to...
[02:02:59] My pulse...
[02:03:00] Tend to rise...
[02:03:01] When it's...
[02:03:02] Hot outside...
[02:03:03] And...
[02:03:04] Right now...
[02:03:05] I'm...
[02:03:06] Almost on my back...
[02:03:08] Because I feel...
[02:03:09] I can relax more...
[02:03:10] When my pulse gets up...
[02:03:15] I am right now...
[02:03:19] In the middle of...
[02:03:23] I don't know...
[02:03:24] Trying to...
[02:03:26] Slow down the day...
[02:03:31] Sometimes...
[02:03:31] I have this feeling...
[02:03:33] When the day is done...
[02:03:34] That I'm not done...
[02:03:36] Although the day is...
[02:03:38] I don't know...
[02:03:39] How to slow down...
[02:03:41] Maybe my speed...
[02:03:45] Is...
[02:03:46] Like...
[02:03:47] Higher than...
[02:03:48] Other people...
[02:03:50] Other people's speed...
[02:03:51] Around this time of day...
[02:03:53] Or maybe there are others...
[02:03:55] That I don't know of...
[02:03:56] That...
[02:03:57] It's a slow riser...
[02:04:01] That...
[02:04:02] Maybe accelerates...
[02:04:04] Slower...
[02:04:05] And then...
[02:04:06] Have trouble slowing down...
[02:04:07] When the day does...
[02:04:14] If you're new to this podcast...
[02:04:16] This is a sleeping podcast...
[02:04:18] I'm going to talk...
[02:04:19] And you don't have to listen...
[02:04:21] You've pressed play...
[02:04:22] And that's all you really need to know...
[02:04:24] And that's all you really need to do...
[02:04:28] You don't have to do anything else...
[02:04:31] You can listen if you want...
[02:04:32] But you don't have to...
[02:04:35] Just let my voice be...
[02:04:36] Whatever it is...
[02:04:38] And if you're wondering...
[02:04:40] In case you're wondering about my accent...
[02:04:42] I am from Sweden...
[02:04:44] My name is Henrik...
[02:04:45] Henrik StÄl...
[02:04:47] I'm a 48-year-old male...
[02:04:49] From Stockholm, Sweden...
[02:04:52] And I live...
[02:04:53] Right at the edge of a vast forest...
[02:04:56] Outside of Stockholm...
[02:05:01] Earlier today I was out in that...
[02:05:03] Very forest...
[02:05:06] And I watched...
[02:05:10] All the trees...
[02:05:14] And they...
[02:05:14] They are...
[02:05:15] There...
[02:05:16] You know...
[02:05:17] No matter what...
[02:05:18] I go through...
[02:05:19] And no matter what happens in the world...
[02:05:21] The trees...
[02:05:23] They just stand there...
[02:05:25] They don't move...
[02:05:26] Sometimes they tilt...
[02:05:28] They...
[02:05:29] Fall over...
[02:05:30] If there...
[02:05:31] Is a lot of snow on them...
[02:05:33] In the wintertime...
[02:05:34] Or if there's a storm...
[02:05:36] But...
[02:05:37] Otherwise they're very persistent...
[02:05:39] And they stand tall...
[02:05:41] And they never move...
[02:05:45] So...
[02:05:46] There are some...
[02:05:47] Trees...
[02:05:48] In my forest...
[02:05:50] It's not mine...
[02:05:51] Per se...
[02:05:53] But the forest...
[02:05:54] I use...
[02:05:55] Every day...
[02:05:56] For my recreational needs...
[02:06:01] There's a couple of them...
[02:06:06] That...
[02:06:07] Are very tall...
[02:06:08] And I don't know...
[02:06:12] Any...
[02:06:13] Any names of trees...
[02:06:15] In English...
[02:06:17] I know there's...
[02:06:19] Pine cones...
[02:06:21] Pine cones...
[02:06:23] Pines...
[02:06:24] I don't know...
[02:06:25] If pine...
[02:06:26] Is pine a tree?
[02:06:28] Oak...
[02:06:29] Large...
[02:06:31] Birch...
[02:06:32] There's a lot of...
[02:06:35] Trees...
[02:06:36] In English...
[02:06:38] Anyway...
[02:06:39] What I was gonna say...
[02:06:40] Was that...
[02:06:41] Some of them...
[02:06:43] Are very...
[02:06:48] Breathtakingly...
[02:06:49] Tall...
[02:06:52] And...
[02:06:53] Whenever I pass them...
[02:06:54] I get this feeling...
[02:06:56] Of...
[02:06:57] Calmness...
[02:06:57] Because...
[02:06:58] They are so...
[02:07:02] They don't move...
[02:07:03] At all...
[02:07:05] Even when the wind is gusting through their leaves...
[02:07:08] Or...
[02:07:10] Or...
[02:07:10] What else...
[02:07:11] Other stuff they have...
[02:07:13] Pines...
[02:07:14] Or whatever...
[02:07:18] I'm a bit embarrassed...
[02:07:20] That I don't know the words...
[02:07:21] For what's on the...
[02:07:22] Branches of the trees...
[02:07:24] I know leaves...
[02:07:26] But...
[02:07:27] What is it...
[02:07:27] When you know...
[02:07:28] You know the stuff that you can...
[02:07:29] Get stuck...
[02:07:30] That can hurt you...
[02:07:32] If you...
[02:07:33] They are sharp...
[02:07:34] What...
[02:07:35] What is it?
[02:07:36] Is it...
[02:07:38] Is it pines?
[02:07:39] In Swedish we say...
[02:07:43] Bar...
[02:07:46] Okay...
[02:07:48] Anyway...
[02:07:48] So...
[02:07:51] I think that I like...
[02:07:52] That there are...
[02:07:53] They are a force...
[02:07:54] To be reckoned with...
[02:07:56] It's a force that can...
[02:08:01] That's there...
[02:08:01] That is a...
[02:08:02] It's an everlasting present in my life...
[02:08:04] And I like that...
[02:08:06] I really like...
[02:08:07] The...
[02:08:10] Conformity of it...
[02:08:12] That...
[02:08:13] No matter what happens in my life...
[02:08:15] I have this...
[02:08:19] Living organism...
[02:08:21] Just outside my...
[02:08:22] Door...
[02:08:24] And even when I don't think about them...
[02:08:26] They're just there...
[02:08:27] And they have been...
[02:08:28] Since I was little...
[02:08:30] Some of these trees are...
[02:08:32] Even older than I am...
[02:08:33] Especially the oaks...
[02:08:35] Out here...
[02:08:42] And in me today...
[02:08:43] Is...
[02:08:44] Like this...
[02:08:45] Wave form...
[02:08:47] Of dark and light...
[02:08:50] And...
[02:08:54] I love it...
[02:08:55] About me...
[02:08:56] That I am...
[02:08:57] Bright...
[02:08:58] And dark...
[02:09:00] Within...
[02:09:01] I love it about me...
[02:09:02] That I...
[02:09:03] Can...
[02:09:04] Travel between spectrums of...
[02:09:06] Being Henrik...
[02:09:07] But it's...
[02:09:08] At the same time...
[02:09:09] It's...
[02:09:12] Exhausting...
[02:09:15] I wish I could be...
[02:09:18] Sometimes...
[02:09:19] No...
[02:09:20] I don't wish that...
[02:09:21] I don't wish I would be...
[02:09:23] More of a...
[02:09:25] Straight line kind of...
[02:09:26] Person...
[02:09:27] I guess I love me...
[02:09:28] I guess I really do...
[02:09:30] It's just...
[02:09:31] Sometimes...
[02:09:32] I wish I could be more like...
[02:09:35] Shrug things off...
[02:09:37] You know...
[02:09:38] Just...
[02:09:40] Shrug...
[02:09:42] And move on...
[02:09:43] I have a...
[02:09:45] Hard time...
[02:09:46] Doing that...
[02:09:50] So today...
[02:09:51] I have this idea...
[02:09:52] That I would try...
[02:09:53] And make a story...
[02:09:56] Um...
[02:09:57] I don't have an idea...
[02:09:59] I just came up with this...
[02:10:01] I just...
[02:10:01] Like...
[02:10:02] One second ago...
[02:10:03] But I...
[02:10:04] To be honest...
[02:10:05] I've had these...
[02:10:06] Thoughts in my mind for a while...
[02:10:08] That I want to try...
[02:10:10] The storytelling...
[02:10:11] Thing...
[02:10:12] In English as well...
[02:10:15] In the Swedish...
[02:10:16] Version of this podcast...
[02:10:18] Somna med Henrik...
[02:10:20] I...
[02:10:21] Tell...
[02:10:21] Stories...
[02:10:21] Frequently...
[02:10:22] I'm...
[02:10:22] I'm not just talking about me...
[02:10:24] And my own emotion...
[02:10:25] Even though...
[02:10:26] Of course...
[02:10:27] Everything has to do with me...
[02:10:28] And my emotions...
[02:10:29] Since I don't write...
[02:10:30] Any scripts...
[02:10:31] Or prepare anything in advance...
[02:10:34] So...
[02:10:37] Of course...
[02:10:37] Everything is about me...
[02:10:39] And what I go through...
[02:10:41] But I would...
[02:10:42] I would like to try to...
[02:10:45] Put this into the perspective...
[02:10:48] Of a story...
[02:10:49] About someone else...
[02:10:51] And in a...
[02:10:52] Quote-on-quote...
[02:10:53] Fictional environment...
[02:10:57] So this is a story...
[02:10:59] All about how...
[02:11:00] My life got twisted...
[02:11:02] Upside down...
[02:11:05] No...
[02:11:06] It's not...
[02:11:07] It's not the intro to...
[02:11:10] Fresh Prince in Bel-Air...
[02:11:11] It's...
[02:11:12] It's a story...
[02:11:14] I just haven't...
[02:11:15] Come up with it yet...
[02:11:17] I'm gonna do that...
[02:11:19] Right now...
[02:11:20] So once upon a time...
[02:11:22] There was this...
[02:11:26] Furniture carpenter...
[02:11:28] Named...
[02:11:29] Billy...
[02:11:30] And Billy...
[02:11:32] He...
[02:11:33] He made furniture...
[02:11:35] For old people...
[02:11:37] Mainly...
[02:11:38] Mainly old people...
[02:11:40] But of course...
[02:11:40] His furniture...
[02:11:42] Wasn't really...
[02:11:43] Adapted to...
[02:11:44] Old people in particular...
[02:11:46] It was just...
[02:11:47] His...
[02:11:48] Customer base...
[02:11:49] Was mainly old people...
[02:11:51] Because he...
[02:11:52] Himself...
[02:11:52] Billy...
[02:11:53] Was an old man...
[02:11:54] And he worked at this...
[02:11:55] It was his own company...
[02:11:57] And...
[02:11:58] It was called...
[02:11:59] Backlunds...
[02:12:01] Furniture...
[02:12:03] Backlunds...
[02:12:04] Is...
[02:12:05] It's a Swedish...
[02:12:06] Surname...
[02:12:07] Backlund...
[02:12:08] And when I grew up...
[02:12:10] There was this...
[02:12:11] Furniture...
[02:12:12] Warehouse...
[02:12:13] In the little village...
[02:12:14] Where I...
[02:12:15] Lived...
[02:12:16] Who was called...
[02:12:19] Backlunds...
[02:12:19] Möbler...
[02:12:20] Backlunds...
[02:12:21] Furniture...
[02:12:23] So...
[02:12:26] In order to...
[02:12:27] Remember the name...
[02:12:29] Billy...
[02:12:29] And his workplace...
[02:12:31] Backlunds...
[02:12:32] I need to...
[02:12:34] Take names from...
[02:12:35] My actual life...
[02:12:36] Not Billy...
[02:12:37] Billy is a non-existent person...
[02:12:39] I don't know any Billy...
[02:12:41] Or do I?
[02:12:44] No...
[02:12:45] I don't know...
[02:12:46] Any Billy...
[02:12:49] So...
[02:12:50] He was living alone...
[02:12:52] He was spending most of his days...
[02:12:54] In solitude...
[02:12:56] And...
[02:12:56] That suited him very well...
[02:12:58] He was...
[02:12:58] Not very fond of...
[02:13:03] Company...
[02:13:03] He was...
[02:13:04] A loner...
[02:13:05] People said...
[02:13:06] And he had been for the...
[02:13:07] His entire life...
[02:13:09] Once when he was young...
[02:13:10] He had...
[02:13:12] Guided...
[02:13:12] Like...
[02:13:13] His...
[02:13:16] Sister...
[02:13:17] And his sister's friend...
[02:13:19] Through...
[02:13:19] The warehouse...
[02:13:20] Through his...
[02:13:22] Furniture warehouse...
[02:13:23] And that was the closest...
[02:13:25] Contact he had ever been...
[02:13:27] With...
[02:13:27] A woman...
[02:13:29] And...
[02:13:30] As far as men...
[02:13:32] They...
[02:13:32] Were also...
[02:13:34] Sort of strangers...
[02:13:35] In his life...
[02:13:36] Of course...
[02:13:36] When he was younger...
[02:13:37] He had friends...
[02:13:38] And they were all male friends...
[02:13:40] As was custom at the time...
[02:13:42] But he didn't really...
[02:13:44] Ever fit in...
[02:13:45] He was this...
[02:13:46] Person who...
[02:13:48] Thought that...
[02:13:49] All type of...
[02:13:50] Group activity...
[02:13:51] Was some sort of...
[02:13:52] A psychotic...
[02:13:53] Event...
[02:13:54] And he didn't...
[02:13:56] Understand...
[02:13:57] The...
[02:13:58] Factors at play...
[02:13:59] He couldn't...
[02:14:01] Read between the lines...
[02:14:04] Some would say...
[02:14:05] He...
[02:14:06] Had a touch of...
[02:14:08] Asperger...
[02:14:09] Or...
[02:14:10] Autism...
[02:14:11] Autism...
[02:14:12] But...
[02:14:13] He wouldn't...
[02:14:14] Say that himself...
[02:14:15] He wasn't...
[02:14:15] He had never been diagnosed...
[02:14:17] With anything...
[02:14:18] Nor would he want to...
[02:14:19] He was...
[02:14:20] Totally fine...
[02:14:21] With being...
[02:14:22] Whatever he was...
[02:14:23] And he didn't feel the need...
[02:14:25] To put a label on it...
[02:14:29] He...
[02:14:30] Was really good...
[02:14:31] At making furniture...
[02:14:33] And that's why...
[02:14:34] His company...
[02:14:35] Was...
[02:14:36] Kind of successful...
[02:14:42] He had a...
[02:14:44] Talent for...
[02:14:46] Being...
[02:14:46] With himself...
[02:14:48] Very few people...
[02:14:50] Have...
[02:14:51] He could sit...
[02:14:52] At the center...
[02:14:53] Of himself...
[02:14:54] And just watch...
[02:14:55] Emotions...
[02:14:56] Come and go...
[02:14:57] And leave them be...
[02:14:59] You know...
[02:14:59] He could...
[02:15:02] Sense a smell...
[02:15:04] In the air...
[02:15:05] And he could just...
[02:15:06] Register it...
[02:15:07] He didn't have to...
[02:15:08] Go along with it...
[02:15:09] Or follow the smell...
[02:15:10] Or whatever...
[02:15:12] And whenever there were...
[02:15:13] Customers in the store...
[02:15:15] Who were...
[02:15:15] Bringing a sort of...
[02:15:17] A particular sort of...
[02:15:18] Energies...
[02:15:19] For instance...
[02:15:19] Like...
[02:15:20] A couple that...
[02:15:22] Had been arguing...
[02:15:24] Or...
[02:15:26] A parent...
[02:15:27] With their...
[02:15:27] Child...
[02:15:28] Or...
[02:15:30] Someone in a rush...
[02:15:31] Or someone who was...
[02:15:33] Angry or afraid...
[02:15:34] He could sense that very well...
[02:15:35] But he was very good at...
[02:15:38] Leaving himself out of it...
[02:15:43] Okay...
[02:15:44] So maybe I'm breaking...
[02:15:45] His own character now...
[02:15:46] Because I just said that he...
[02:15:48] Had trouble reading...
[02:15:49] Between the lines...
[02:15:50] And now I'm saying...
[02:15:51] Saying that he's kind of...
[02:15:52] Highly sensitive to people's...
[02:15:55] Energies...
[02:15:56] Okay...
[02:15:57] But I guess it's...
[02:15:58] Possible to be both...
[02:16:00] And in a way...
[02:16:02] His gift was to...
[02:16:03] Leave himself out of the equation...
[02:16:06] The social equation...
[02:16:08] He was very...
[02:16:10] Service-minded...
[02:16:11] And he helped...
[02:16:12] He tried to help...
[02:16:13] Each customer...
[02:16:13] The best he could...
[02:16:15] But...
[02:16:16] He never got involved...
[02:16:18] In...
[02:16:19] Whatever they were going through...
[02:16:21] He...
[02:16:22] Knew very clear...
[02:16:23] Where his limit was...
[02:16:25] And where their...
[02:16:26] Needs...
[02:16:27] Became something else...
[02:16:29] So he never crossed the line...
[02:16:31] He was just...
[02:16:32] Always very service-minded...
[02:16:34] But...
[02:16:35] Nothing more...
[02:16:35] No one ever...
[02:16:38] Remembered him...
[02:16:40] Really...
[02:16:40] A few days after...
[02:16:41] Visiting his store...
[02:16:43] Or his workshop...
[02:16:47] So people came...
[02:16:49] To...
[02:16:50] To...
[02:16:51] Billy...
[02:16:52] At Backlons Furniture...
[02:16:54] To order...
[02:16:56] Furniture...
[02:16:59] Carpented...
[02:17:00] Exactly...
[02:17:02] For...
[02:17:03] Whatever environment...
[02:17:05] They wanted...
[02:17:05] They wanted the furniture to be in...
[02:17:08] So for instance...
[02:17:09] There could be...
[02:17:10] A woman who wanted a sofa that was...
[02:17:13] 2.5...
[02:17:17] Inches...
[02:17:17] I don't know...
[02:17:19] I don't know the inches scale...
[02:17:22] Uh...
[02:17:23] From like...
[02:17:24] The wall or something...
[02:17:26] And...
[02:17:26] It was going to be able to fit...
[02:17:29] In under a very low...
[02:17:30] Hanging shelf...
[02:17:31] With a porcelain dog on...
[02:17:34] And this porcelain dog was...
[02:17:36] This woman's...
[02:17:37] Top favorite...
[02:17:39] Possession...
[02:17:40] And...
[02:17:41] That needed to be...
[02:17:42] Considered when making the sofa...
[02:17:47] Stuff like that...
[02:17:52] So one day he was in his workshop...
[02:17:54] Like all the other days...
[02:17:55] The weekends were no exception...
[02:17:57] He was really...
[02:17:58] A very dedicated man...
[02:18:00] And he also find...
[02:18:01] He found...
[02:18:05] Relief...
[02:18:06] When...
[02:18:08] Working on some new furniture...
[02:18:11] A chair...
[02:18:12] Or a sofa...
[02:18:13] Or a shelf...
[02:18:14] Or...
[02:18:15] A rocking chair...
[02:18:17] Or a...
[02:18:20] Table...
[02:18:23] Or a garden...
[02:18:24] Garden gnome...
[02:18:25] Made out of wood...
[02:18:29] So one day he was at his workshop...
[02:18:31] It was the weekend...
[02:18:32] It was Saturday...
[02:18:33] The 5th...
[02:18:34] Of August...
[02:18:36] And...
[02:18:37] He was...
[02:18:39] Just finishing up some...
[02:18:41] Sandpapering...
[02:18:42] On a garden gnome...
[02:18:43] That he was preparing for a customer...
[02:18:45] When he heard a knock on the door...
[02:18:48] And...
[02:18:49] Of course it was closed that day...
[02:18:51] Because it was Saturday...
[02:18:52] So at first he didn't respond...
[02:18:54] It was...
[02:18:56] Sometimes very common...
[02:18:58] For customers to just walk by...
[02:18:59] And see if it was in...
[02:19:02] And...
[02:19:03] He was very against...
[02:19:05] Opening up to people...
[02:19:07] Outside of the...
[02:19:09] Ordinary hours...
[02:19:12] So he...
[02:19:13] Waited a while...
[02:19:14] But the knocking...
[02:19:15] Persisted and...
[02:19:16] Eventually he...
[02:19:18] Left his work...
[02:19:19] And he went out...
[02:19:20] To the hallway and...
[02:19:21] Looked through the glass window...
[02:19:23] In the door...
[02:19:24] And outside there was this little girl...
[02:19:26] Who...
[02:19:27] Couldn't have been more than...
[02:19:28] Maybe 8 or 9 years old...
[02:19:31] And...
[02:19:33] He waved at her...
[02:19:34] It's...
[02:19:34] And pointed at his watch...
[02:19:36] It's...
[02:19:36] It's closed...
[02:19:37] But she just...
[02:19:38] Mimed like...
[02:19:40] Let me in please...
[02:19:41] And kept knocking...
[02:19:45] So eventually he opened the door...
[02:19:46] And the girl...
[02:19:47] Got in...
[02:19:48] And she said that...
[02:19:49] I'm really...
[02:19:51] Really...
[02:19:53] I need your help...
[02:19:56] And...
[02:19:56] He said...
[02:19:58] What do you mean...
[02:19:58] What do you mean...
[02:19:59] You need my help?
[02:20:01] And he started to...
[02:20:02] Get this sense in his...
[02:20:05] Stomach or chest...
[02:20:06] That...
[02:20:06] He was getting involved in something...
[02:20:08] That he didn't really wanted...
[02:20:10] To get involved in...
[02:20:11] Maybe this girl was...
[02:20:12] Like really in trouble...
[02:20:13] And...
[02:20:14] He didn't want...
[02:20:14] To be responsible...
[02:20:16] But...
[02:20:16] At the same time...
[02:20:18] Here she was...
[02:20:19] And...
[02:20:20] There was nothing...
[02:20:20] He could really do about that...
[02:20:22] Right now...
[02:20:22] So he listened...
[02:20:24] As she started to tell him...
[02:20:26] The main story...
[02:20:28] Of this episode...
[02:20:31] So...
[02:20:32] Her parents...
[02:20:33] Was...
[02:20:34] A chair...
[02:20:35] And a table...
[02:20:37] So she was the descendant...
[02:20:39] Of two...
[02:20:41] Pieces of wood...
[02:20:42] Really...
[02:20:43] Like...
[02:20:45] From a...
[02:20:47] Competing...
[02:20:48] Furniture firm...
[02:20:53] Boot...
[02:20:53] Boot...
[02:20:54] Boot...
[02:20:54] Boot...
[02:20:55] Boot...
[02:20:55] Delicious...
[02:20:56] Down the street...
[02:20:58] And a chair...
[02:20:59] And a table...
[02:21:00] Had...
[02:21:00] Really...
[02:21:01] Came to...
[02:21:02] Come together...
[02:21:03] And loved each other...
[02:21:04] Very much...
[02:21:04] And then...
[02:21:05] This little girl...
[02:21:06] Called Sarah...
[02:21:06] So this is a freak of nature...
[02:21:10] Of course...
[02:21:11] As you know...
[02:21:12] Sleepy...
[02:21:13] Tables...
[02:21:14] Or other household objects...
[02:21:15] Don't...
[02:21:16] Generally...
[02:21:18] Become...
[02:21:19] Pregnant...
[02:21:19] Or...
[02:21:20] Very seldom...
[02:21:22] Conceive children...
[02:21:23] At least not...
[02:21:24] Human...
[02:21:25] Children...
[02:21:26] But in this case...
[02:21:27] This had happened...
[02:21:30] So there's very little in nature...
[02:21:31] That absolutely...
[02:21:33] Cannot happen...
[02:21:34] It's just a matter of...
[02:21:37] Percentage...
[02:21:38] You know...
[02:21:39] Of course...
[02:21:42] If you drop an egg...
[02:21:44] On the floor...
[02:21:45] The egg will...
[02:21:48] Fall out into...
[02:21:49] A...
[02:21:50] Thousand pieces...
[02:21:52] But...
[02:21:53] There's nothing in nature...
[02:21:55] That really says...
[02:21:56] That the egg...
[02:21:57] Can't do the opposite...
[02:21:58] Go from broken...
[02:22:00] To whole...
[02:22:01] It's just that...
[02:22:02] The number of ways...
[02:22:04] That the egg can break...
[02:22:05] Are so many more...
[02:22:07] Astronomically...
[02:22:08] Bigger...
[02:22:09] Possibilities...
[02:22:10] Of the egg breaking...
[02:22:12] Than of the egg...
[02:22:14] Getting whole...
[02:22:15] So that's the whole difference...
[02:22:16] Why...
[02:22:17] That's the whole reason...
[02:22:18] Why nature...
[02:22:20] Seems the way it is to us...
[02:22:21] Because of...
[02:22:23] Possibilities...
[02:22:24] So there are a very limited way...
[02:22:26] Of possibilities...
[02:22:28] That an egg can go from broken to whole...
[02:22:31] But there are...
[02:22:33] Like...
[02:22:33] Millions and millions...
[02:22:35] Of ways...
[02:22:36] That an egg can break...
[02:22:44] So...
[02:22:45] She was...
[02:22:48] An outcast...
[02:22:49] From this...
[02:22:51] Bootily...
[02:22:51] Bootilicious...
[02:22:52] Furniture down the street...
[02:22:53] Because...
[02:22:54] The owner...
[02:22:55] Kurt...
[02:22:56] He had discovered...
[02:22:58] That his table...
[02:22:59] And his chair...
[02:23:00] His prized...
[02:23:01] Table and prized chair...
[02:23:02] Was having a baby...
[02:23:04] A human baby...
[02:23:05] And...
[02:23:06] That...
[02:23:07] He couldn't have that...
[02:23:08] So of course...
[02:23:08] He threw Sarah out on the street...
[02:23:10] As soon as she learned how to...
[02:23:13] Walk...
[02:23:14] Which she did...
[02:23:15] By the age of seven...
[02:23:18] It's very...
[02:23:19] It's very hard...
[02:23:21] For...
[02:23:22] A human child...
[02:23:23] To learn how to walk...
[02:23:24] When your parents are...
[02:23:27] Inanimate objects...
[02:23:29] You know...
[02:23:29] A table doesn't walk around and say...
[02:23:32] Come here you...
[02:23:33] Walk to papa...
[02:23:35] You know...
[02:23:35] You can't...
[02:23:37] They don't talk...
[02:23:38] At all...
[02:23:38] You know...
[02:23:39] So she just grew up there in the...
[02:23:40] In the corner...
[02:23:42] Around...
[02:23:42] Like where...
[02:23:43] All the old furniture...
[02:23:46] Were being kept...
[02:23:49] And...
[02:23:50] At the time where Kurt...
[02:23:52] Discovered Sarah...
[02:23:53] She was seven...
[02:23:54] And had just learned to walk...
[02:23:56] By her own...
[02:23:57] And then he said...
[02:23:59] You really need to go...
[02:24:00] You can't be here...
[02:24:01] I don't sell...
[02:24:02] Persons...
[02:24:03] I sell...
[02:24:04] Objects...
[02:24:05] In the shape of...
[02:24:06] Household furniture...
[02:24:08] And...
[02:24:10] Sarah...
[02:24:11] Couldn't agree...
[02:24:11] More...
[02:24:12] She was the only human there...
[02:24:14] Except for Kurt...
[02:24:16] So...
[02:24:18] It wasn't too hard...
[02:24:19] For Kurt to get rid of her...
[02:24:23] And then...
[02:24:24] She was on her own...
[02:24:30] And...
[02:24:31] By this time in the story...
[02:24:33] She really...
[02:24:36] She was really emotional...
[02:24:38] She cried some...
[02:24:40] She sobbed...
[02:24:41] You know...
[02:24:41] As Billy...
[02:24:42] Stood there and just listened...
[02:24:46] And...
[02:24:46] Her story gripped her...
[02:24:48] He himself had...
[02:24:50] As a child...
[02:24:51] Been thrown out of...
[02:24:53] A few different homes actually...
[02:24:55] Because he was...
[02:24:56] Brought up in...
[02:24:59] An orphanage...
[02:25:01] And then got adopted...
[02:25:02] And adopted again...
[02:25:04] And adopted again...
[02:25:05] And eventually he was too old...
[02:25:06] To be adopted...
[02:25:07] And then he started...
[02:25:08] To learn how to live by his own...
[02:25:13] So...
[02:25:14] He felt sort of a kinship...
[02:25:16] With Sarah...
[02:25:19] And...
[02:25:20] He invited her in...
[02:25:21] And he said...
[02:25:22] You can stay here...
[02:25:23] If you work with me...
[02:25:25] Building furniture...
[02:25:29] And...
[02:25:30] This was of course...
[02:25:31] For a seven year old...
[02:25:32] Like Sarah...
[02:25:33] This was a challenge...
[02:25:35] Because...
[02:25:35] She only knew...
[02:25:37] Furniture...
[02:25:38] In the shape of parents...
[02:25:40] And the parents...
[02:25:41] Friends...
[02:25:41] So she didn't know...
[02:25:43] Really...
[02:25:44] How to build one...
[02:25:45] From scratch...
[02:25:49] But Billy showed her...
[02:25:50] And...
[02:25:50] She was an...
[02:25:52] Incredible fast learner...
[02:25:54] She learned...
[02:25:55] How to build sofas...
[02:25:57] Within like...
[02:25:58] Four or five hours...
[02:25:59] That Saturday...
[02:26:01] And...
[02:26:01] When Billy went home that day...
[02:26:04] He lived in a house...
[02:26:05] Just down the street...
[02:26:08] Made......
[02:26:09] Actually
[02:26:10] very close to... Booty
[02:26:12] Bootylicious furniture... And...
[02:26:16] He could
[02:26:16] hear her... Hammering
[02:26:19] away... All night...
[02:26:20] And when he got back to work...
[02:26:22] On Sunday...
[02:26:23] The next day...
[02:26:24] Sarah had...
[02:26:25] Built like...
[02:26:26] 25 new sofas...
[02:26:28] And they were...
[02:26:29] Exquisite...
[02:26:29] They were...
[02:26:30] Awesome...
[02:26:36] Have you ever...
[02:26:37] Walked into a store...
[02:26:39] And just...
[02:26:41] Stood...
[02:26:42] Stood...
[02:26:43] And just been standing there...
[02:26:44] With a...
[02:26:45] Grin...
[02:26:46] With a...
[02:26:47] With a...
[02:26:48] With a...
[02:26:48] With an open mouth...
[02:26:49] Like...
[02:26:50] This sofa...
[02:26:51] Is like...
[02:26:52] Larger than life...
[02:26:53] That was the feeling that...
[02:26:56] Billy got...
[02:26:57] When he saw what Sarah has been building during the night...
[02:27:02] It was...
[02:27:03] Large sofas...
[02:27:05] And small sofas...
[02:27:06] And...
[02:27:07] Bulky sofas...
[02:27:09] And tiny...
[02:27:10] Very elegant...
[02:27:11] Sofas...
[02:27:12] And they were...
[02:27:13] Green and yellow and purple...
[02:27:15] And they were out of velvet...
[02:27:16] And...
[02:27:17] Satin...
[02:27:18] And...
[02:27:18] Manchester...
[02:27:19] And...
[02:27:20] All other types of...
[02:27:21] Fabric that you can imagine...
[02:27:24] They were colored...
[02:27:25] And shaped in all...
[02:27:26] Thinkable ways...
[02:27:29] And...
[02:27:30] Billy was...
[02:27:32] In awe...
[02:27:35] He thought he was the best furniture carpenter in the city...
[02:27:39] He never even...
[02:27:40] He never really had an issue with...
[02:27:43] Boogly-boogly-licious furniture and Kurt...
[02:27:45] Because he...
[02:27:46] Saw himself as...
[02:27:47] Somewhat of an artist...
[02:27:49] And Kurt was more of a...
[02:27:51] You know...
[02:27:52] An ordinary...
[02:27:53] Trade...
[02:27:54] Trade...
[02:27:55] Trader...
[02:27:56] He just...
[02:27:59] Made...
[02:28:00] What he knew was gonna sell...
[02:28:02] And...
[02:28:03] With as little job...
[02:28:05] And effort as possible...
[02:28:06] And he got around...
[02:28:08] I mean...
[02:28:08] His business was...
[02:28:10] Okay...
[02:28:11] But it didn't flourish...
[02:28:12] Like Billy's...
[02:28:17] And now...
[02:28:18] He had to...
[02:28:19] Pinch himself...
[02:28:20] Because he thought...
[02:28:21] Initially...
[02:28:22] That he was dreaming...
[02:28:25] I don't know about you, Sleepy...
[02:28:27] But have you ever...
[02:28:28] Thought that you really mastered something...
[02:28:31] And then...
[02:28:32] All of a sudden...
[02:28:34] Stood before...
[02:28:36] Someone doing...
[02:28:37] The very thing that you thought...
[02:28:39] That you were the master of...
[02:28:41] And doing it so much better...
[02:28:43] And so much faster...
[02:28:44] And also...
[02:28:45] Giving it like...
[02:28:46] New dimensions...
[02:28:47] And stuff...
[02:28:51] That's...
[02:28:52] Remarkable...
[02:28:54] That's a remarkable experience...
[02:28:55] And...
[02:28:55] If you're not careful...
[02:28:57] That sort of an experience...
[02:28:59] Experience can make you bitter...
[02:29:01] Like...
[02:29:02] Sad and bitter...
[02:29:03] And...
[02:29:04] Resentful...
[02:29:11] Lucky for Sarah...
[02:29:13] Billy wasn't that kind of a person...
[02:29:15] He...
[02:29:16] He was really...
[02:29:18] Genuinely...
[02:29:19] Truly impressed...
[02:29:20] By Sarah...
[02:29:21] And he told her so...
[02:29:23] And...
[02:29:24] That was...
[02:29:25] Like...
[02:29:25] The first really good thing...
[02:29:27] Except for maybe...
[02:29:28] Taking her off the street...
[02:29:29] In the beginning...
[02:29:30] But...
[02:29:31] That was the really good deed...
[02:29:33] That he made...
[02:29:33] That day...
[02:29:34] Because Sarah...
[02:29:35] Then realized...
[02:29:36] That she had a talent...
[02:29:39] And to tell a young person...
[02:29:41] That she has talent...
[02:29:42] Is one of the greatest gifts...
[02:29:44] That you can ever give someone...
[02:29:47] If you haven't done it...
[02:29:48] Please...
[02:29:48] Go out and do it...
[02:29:50] Go out and do...
[02:29:51] Just that...
[02:29:52] Tell a young person...
[02:29:53] That they have talent...
[02:29:56] Within a certain aspect...
[02:29:58] Feel...
[02:29:59] Area...
[02:30:00] Whatever...
[02:30:02] I just can't...
[02:30:04] Emphasize enough...
[02:30:05] How important it is...
[02:30:06] As a young person...
[02:30:08] To...
[02:30:09] Receive...
[02:30:10] Such information...
[02:30:11] At some point...
[02:30:13] In your development...
[02:30:16] When I was in actor school...
[02:30:18] I thought that I was really bad at acting...
[02:30:22] All my classmates...
[02:30:24] Said so...
[02:30:25] We were all in the style...
[02:30:27] And shape...
[02:30:28] And...
[02:30:29] Period of our life...
[02:30:31] When...
[02:30:31] Just this...
[02:30:32] Very...
[02:30:33] Special...
[02:30:34] Very narrow...
[02:30:35] Form of theater...
[02:30:36] Was popular...
[02:30:37] And...
[02:30:38] All other shapes...
[02:30:39] And forms of acting...
[02:30:41] Was frowned upon...
[02:30:42] And I was...
[02:30:43] This very personal actor...
[02:30:45] I've always been...
[02:30:46] Someone who uses...
[02:30:48] A lot about...
[02:30:49] And from myself...
[02:30:50] When acting...
[02:30:53] And at that time...
[02:30:55] There were supposed to be like...
[02:30:57] Different layers...
[02:30:59] Between you...
[02:31:00] As a person...
[02:31:00] And the audience...
[02:31:01] So you were going to be...
[02:31:06] Unrecognizable...
[02:31:06] When...
[02:31:07] Someone in the audience...
[02:31:08] Saw you on the street...
[02:31:10] Because you were going to be this...
[02:31:12] Totally different...
[02:31:13] Person...
[02:31:14] And...
[02:31:15] The most important thing...
[02:31:17] About acting...
[02:31:18] Was to be able to...
[02:31:23] Show off...
[02:31:24] You know...
[02:31:25] Your...
[02:31:25] Acting...
[02:31:26] Equilibrium...
[02:31:30] So...
[02:31:30] I was a bad actor...
[02:31:32] By those standards...
[02:31:36] And...
[02:31:37] At one point...
[02:31:39] We had this...
[02:31:41] Clown...
[02:31:42] Guru...
[02:31:43] Who was called Mario...
[02:31:46] And Mario...
[02:31:47] He...
[02:31:48] This was my first week...
[02:31:49] In actor school...
[02:31:50] And I felt...
[02:31:51] Really bad...
[02:31:52] Really awful...
[02:31:53] I cried myself to sleep...
[02:31:55] Like almost...
[02:31:55] Every night...
[02:31:56] Because I felt...
[02:31:57] That I made a mistake...
[02:31:58] I was very young...
[02:31:59] I was only 19 years old...
[02:32:01] And...
[02:32:01] All the others...
[02:32:02] In my class were...
[02:32:04] Both more experienced...
[02:32:06] And...
[02:32:07] Also older...
[02:32:08] They had all been living...
[02:32:11] Outside of their home...
[02:32:13] For a while...
[02:32:13] And...
[02:32:14] Had have time to define...
[02:32:15] Who they were...
[02:32:16] Or something...
[02:32:18] And I just moved...
[02:32:19] Away from home...
[02:32:20] I...
[02:32:21] This was my first...
[02:32:22] Own place...
[02:32:23] And my first steps...
[02:32:24] Outside of my parents...
[02:32:26] Care...
[02:32:28] And...
[02:32:28] So I was really sad...
[02:32:32] And we had this clown guy...
[02:32:34] Called Mario...
[02:32:35] And I was...
[02:32:36] We had...
[02:32:37] We did like...
[02:32:39] Improvised...
[02:32:40] Improvised clowns...
[02:32:41] This is a...
[02:32:42] This is an acting exercise...
[02:32:44] In Comedia dell'Art...
[02:32:45] Which is like this...
[02:32:46] Improv...
[02:32:49] Style...
[02:32:51] And...
[02:32:52] So we practiced this...
[02:32:54] For the whole week...
[02:32:54] And Mario was a guest teacher...
[02:32:56] There from...
[02:32:57] Wherever he was from...
[02:32:58] I don't remember...
[02:32:59] I think he was from France...
[02:33:01] But I don't...
[02:33:01] I don't remember...
[02:33:03] And...
[02:33:05] I was...
[02:33:08] As I'm...
[02:33:09] Used to...
[02:33:10] I prepared...
[02:33:11] Like a lot...
[02:33:11] Before I was going to do my clown...
[02:33:13] So the exercise was that...
[02:33:16] I'm going out there...
[02:33:17] And...
[02:33:18] The audience is going to ask me questions...
[02:33:20] And I'm going to interact with them...
[02:33:22] And...
[02:33:23] By the nature of this exercise...
[02:33:28] Funny stuff is about to...
[02:33:30] It's going to happen automatically...
[02:33:32] Because you're...
[02:33:33] You know...
[02:33:34] You're right in the hands of the audience...
[02:33:36] But I didn't get that...
[02:33:38] So I prepared...
[02:33:39] Like a lot of things...
[02:33:41] I decided what name...
[02:33:43] My clown was going to have...
[02:33:45] And...
[02:33:46] You...
[02:33:46] In this exercise...
[02:33:47] You put on a clown nose...
[02:33:48] And you just...
[02:33:49] Enter the stage...
[02:33:51] That's all...
[02:33:51] You don't...
[02:33:52] You don't get to prepare anything...
[02:33:54] You...
[02:33:54] You shall not do that...
[02:33:56] You shall not do that...
[02:33:58] You shall not pass...
[02:34:01] And...
[02:34:03] I did that...
[02:34:04] I...
[02:34:04] I prepared...
[02:34:05] I put...
[02:34:06] I tilted my glasses...
[02:34:07] That I would look...
[02:34:08] That I just went in...
[02:34:09] To a pole...
[02:34:10] Or a tree...
[02:34:11] Or anything...
[02:34:11] Or something...
[02:34:13] And...
[02:34:13] Then I went out...
[02:34:14] And I decided that my clown name...
[02:34:16] Was going to be Michael...
[02:34:19] And...
[02:34:19] Of course it was a disaster...
[02:34:21] No one laughed...
[02:34:22] And...
[02:34:23] And Mario wasn't...
[02:34:26] Pleased...
[02:34:26] And...
[02:34:27] It was the end of the class...
[02:34:28] And then there was...
[02:34:29] This other people...
[02:34:30] In my class...
[02:34:31] And other classes...
[02:34:32] That made their clowns...
[02:34:33] And people...
[02:34:34] Just laughed their asses off...
[02:34:35] Because it was...
[02:34:36] So funny...
[02:34:38] Actually I can still remember...
[02:34:39] One of the opera singers...
[02:34:41] In my parallel class...
[02:34:42] That...
[02:34:43] He made this...
[02:34:44] Awesome...
[02:34:45] Clown...
[02:34:45] Called...
[02:34:46] Adolf...
[02:34:47] It was like...
[02:34:48] Like this...
[02:34:49] Terrible...
[02:34:51] And...
[02:34:52] Really...
[02:34:53] Really funny...
[02:34:54] Absurd clown...
[02:34:56] Because he...
[02:34:56] He just...
[02:34:57] He couldn't act...
[02:34:59] I mean...
[02:34:59] He...
[02:35:00] Being an opera singer...
[02:35:02] He was very...
[02:35:03] Uncomfortable...
[02:35:03] Just doing these types of...
[02:35:05] Improv...
[02:35:06] Things...
[02:35:07] But he was...
[02:35:08] Brilliant...
[02:35:09] And...
[02:35:09] Everybody laughed...
[02:35:10] And Mario was very pleased...
[02:35:12] And I of course...
[02:35:14] Felt like...
[02:35:15] I was...
[02:35:16] The scum of the earth...
[02:35:19] And at...
[02:35:20] That night...
[02:35:21] We were going to...
[02:35:22] An opera performance...
[02:35:24] In Gothenburg...
[02:35:25] Where I studied...
[02:35:26] And Mario was going to go with us...
[02:35:29] And we watched the episode...
[02:35:30] I think it was something by...
[02:35:33] Wagner...
[02:35:34] I don't remember...
[02:35:36] I remember it was really bad...
[02:35:38] It's very hard to make a Wagner opera...
[02:35:41] Good...
[02:35:42] It's very bombastic...
[02:35:44] And...
[02:35:44] Not very...
[02:35:45] Fine-tuned...
[02:35:47] You know...
[02:35:50] So...
[02:35:52] In the...
[02:35:54] Intermission...
[02:35:55] Mario came up to me...
[02:35:57] And he said...
[02:35:57] So tomorrow...
[02:35:58] We will see your clown...
[02:35:59] Michael again...
[02:36:00] Yes...
[02:36:00] And I said...
[02:36:03] Oh...
[02:36:03] I...
[02:36:03] I don't know...
[02:36:04] I am...
[02:36:05] Like...
[02:36:06] So...
[02:36:07] Bad...
[02:36:08] I'm so awful...
[02:36:10] I am...
[02:36:13] I am not really...
[02:36:15] Good at this...
[02:36:16] I feel ashamed...
[02:36:17] Or something like that...
[02:36:18] I don't remember exactly...
[02:36:20] This was so many years ago...
[02:36:22] And he said...
[02:36:24] No...
[02:36:25] No...
[02:36:25] No...
[02:36:27] I think that you are really an actor...
[02:36:30] I remember the exact words...
[02:36:33] Until this day...
[02:36:35] I think that you are really an actor...
[02:36:37] And if you are humble...
[02:36:39] You can be really big...
[02:36:43] You know...
[02:36:44] I was 19...
[02:36:45] I am 48 now...
[02:36:47] And I still remember these words...
[02:36:49] Exactly as he said them...
[02:36:53] Now...
[02:36:54] Mario was a very problematic person...
[02:36:57] And...
[02:36:58] Other people had...
[02:37:00] Told me...
[02:37:02] Other stuff about him...
[02:37:03] That's not as...
[02:37:05] Flattering...
[02:37:06] But to me...
[02:37:07] At this time...
[02:37:09] In my life...
[02:37:10] And in my development...
[02:37:12] This was...
[02:37:13] Essential...
[02:37:15] His words...
[02:37:16] Right there...
[02:37:17] Right...
[02:37:18] Then...
[02:37:20] Then...
[02:37:21] Was...
[02:37:21] Essential to me...
[02:37:23] Because if he hadn't said them...
[02:37:26] I believe maybe I would have...
[02:37:29] Quit actor school...
[02:37:31] And went home...
[02:37:32] To mom and dad...
[02:37:34] And that of course...
[02:37:36] Would have...
[02:37:37] Made...
[02:37:38] Everything that is my life now...
[02:37:41] Not reality...
[02:37:46] Everything that is...
[02:37:48] All the aspects of...
[02:37:51] What is now my life...
[02:37:53] Life...
[02:37:54] This podcast even...
[02:37:56] This...
[02:37:57] Me sitting here...
[02:37:59] Lying...
[02:37:59] In my...
[02:38:00] Chair...
[02:38:01] Talking to you...
[02:38:03] Would have been...
[02:38:05] Unreality...
[02:38:06] It would have been...
[02:38:07] Unreal...
[02:38:08] It wouldn't even have been...
[02:38:09] An idea...
[02:38:10] A dream...
[02:38:11] I don't know...
[02:38:12] What have become...
[02:38:13] What have become of me...
[02:38:14] If I didn't...
[02:38:15] Finished actor school...
[02:38:17] I thought that...
[02:38:21] Trying to be an actor...
[02:38:22] Training to be an actor...
[02:38:24] Was...
[02:38:24] Very hard on me...
[02:38:27] I am too...
[02:38:28] Messy...
[02:38:30] I am too...
[02:38:34] What do you call it...
[02:38:36] Uneven...
[02:38:38] Unbalanced...
[02:38:39] Whatever...
[02:38:40] I'm too weird...
[02:38:43] So...
[02:38:45] I ended up in children's television...
[02:38:49] And...
[02:38:49] It suited me fine...
[02:38:51] I'm...
[02:38:52] I love...
[02:38:53] Culture for children...
[02:38:58] But...
[02:38:59] For audiences...
[02:39:01] Older...
[02:39:02] Than...
[02:39:04] Children...
[02:39:04] I am too weird...
[02:39:06] I think...
[02:39:08] And...
[02:39:09] That's...
[02:39:10] That's been my...
[02:39:11] Achilles heel...
[02:39:12] All my career...
[02:39:13] Until now...
[02:39:14] When I...
[02:39:15] When I...
[02:39:15] Have created this...
[02:39:17] So in a way...
[02:39:17] There is a direct...
[02:39:18] Direct line...
[02:39:19] From what Mario said...
[02:39:20] In 1995...
[02:39:23] To...
[02:39:25] Today...
[02:39:25] When I...
[02:39:27] Sit here...
[02:39:27] In my own studio...
[02:39:29] Which I...
[02:39:30] I...
[02:39:31] Decided to name...
[02:39:33] Adventure Wolf...
[02:39:36] Talking to you...
[02:39:38] Making you...
[02:39:39] Relax...
[02:39:41] Fall...
[02:39:41] Fall asleep...
[02:39:48] So Billy...
[02:39:50] Really did Sarah...
[02:39:51] A favor there...
[02:39:52] Maybe without knowing it...
[02:39:53] But from that day...
[02:39:55] She started to grow...
[02:39:57] She started to grow...
[02:39:58] Not just...
[02:39:59] Lengthwise...
[02:40:00] But also...
[02:40:01] Within...
[02:40:04] Do you remember...
[02:40:05] What it was like...
[02:40:06] Sleepy...
[02:40:06] When you were a kid...
[02:40:07] And...
[02:40:08] You...
[02:40:09] Suddenly realize...
[02:40:10] That you're very...
[02:40:11] Rapidly getting better...
[02:40:13] At something...
[02:40:14] I remember that...
[02:40:16] With my own reading...
[02:40:18] I had such a hard time...
[02:40:21] Memorizing the alphabet...
[02:40:22] I remember...
[02:40:24] Having...
[02:40:25] Trouble...
[02:40:25] In first grade...
[02:40:27] Reading...
[02:40:28] I could read a few words...
[02:40:30] Before I started school...
[02:40:31] And I thought...
[02:40:32] This is it...
[02:40:32] Reading is easy for me...
[02:40:34] But then...
[02:40:35] When there was this teacher...
[02:40:36] This other person...
[02:40:37] Than my mom and dad...
[02:40:39] Trying to teach me...
[02:40:40] With this certain set of rules...
[02:40:44] Then...
[02:40:47] I hit...
[02:40:48] Problem after problem...
[02:40:49] After problem...
[02:40:50] It's almost like...
[02:40:52] I imagined learning to drive a car...
[02:40:55] That...
[02:40:56] Initially...
[02:40:57] Maybe you think that you...
[02:40:58] Really get the hang of it...
[02:41:00] But then...
[02:41:01] Like...
[02:41:01] Later you feel like...
[02:41:02] This is too hard...
[02:41:03] I don't...
[02:41:04] I can't do it...
[02:41:05] It's impossible...
[02:41:06] And then all of a sudden...
[02:41:08] It's...
[02:41:08] It works again...
[02:41:12] This happens of course...
[02:41:13] For adults as well...
[02:41:15] But I remember it specifically...
[02:41:17] From being a child...
[02:41:19] That...
[02:41:21] I'm...
[02:41:22] I'm looking at something...
[02:41:25] These symbols on a page...
[02:41:28] And some...
[02:41:29] And suddenly...
[02:41:30] I just realized...
[02:41:32] What they are supposed to mean...
[02:41:34] I don't remember...
[02:41:36] Studying...
[02:41:38] And studying...
[02:41:39] And studying...
[02:41:39] I just remember that...
[02:41:41] I didn't understand any of it...
[02:41:43] It was just gibberish to me...
[02:41:45] And then...
[02:41:45] I remember...
[02:41:47] Quite a bit of anxiety around that...
[02:41:50] And then all of a sudden...
[02:41:52] There they were...
[02:41:54] The words...
[02:41:55] And they have been there...
[02:41:57] With me since then...
[02:41:59] Since 1982...
[02:42:02] Which was the year when I learned to read...
[02:42:06] What year...
[02:42:07] Did you learn to read?
[02:42:11] What year did you learn how to talk?
[02:42:16] I mean...
[02:42:16] These are important words...
[02:42:17] Sometimes...
[02:42:19] Sometimes...
[02:42:19] I think that...
[02:42:20] We shouldn't really celebrate...
[02:42:21] Our birthdays...
[02:42:22] Because...
[02:42:23] The only thing that they tell us is...
[02:42:26] This...
[02:42:27] Many years ago today...
[02:42:28] I was brought into this world...
[02:42:31] From my mother's womb...
[02:42:32] But...
[02:42:33] I mean...
[02:42:34] There are so many more...
[02:42:36] Epic moments...
[02:42:37] Like...
[02:42:37] The...
[02:42:38] The day...
[02:42:39] When I took my first step...
[02:42:40] That's something to celebrate...
[02:42:42] The day when I learned how to read...
[02:42:46] So I don't have a date for that...
[02:42:48] But I have a year...
[02:42:51] 1982...
[02:42:51] That was the year...
[02:42:53] When Henrik Stoll learned how to read...
[02:42:55] And I've really benefited from that...
[02:42:57] Since then...
[02:42:58] Wouldn't you say you have as well?
[02:43:03] Today especially...
[02:43:05] When there's so much information around us...
[02:43:07] In all angles and directions...
[02:43:10] Coming from...
[02:43:11] Every direction...
[02:43:13] In high speeds...
[02:43:15] What if we couldn't read?
[02:43:18] Or what if we couldn't see...
[02:43:22] Nyan...
[02:43:23] Nyan...
[02:43:24] Nyan...
[02:43:24] Nyan...
[02:43:25] Nyan...
[02:43:26] Nuances...
[02:43:27] Nyan is...
[02:43:28] I guess...
[02:43:29] So...
[02:43:29] Nuances...
[02:43:31] In...
[02:43:32] In text...
[02:43:33] Text...
[02:43:36] And I mean...
[02:43:37] The...
[02:43:37] The year...
[02:43:38] I learned to talk...
[02:43:42] I guess...
[02:43:44] That must have been...
[02:43:45] In 1976...
[02:43:48] I've been able to talk...
[02:43:50] Since 1976...
[02:43:54] I've benefited as well...
[02:43:56] Very much from...
[02:43:57] Being able to talk...
[02:44:03] And talking about encouragement...
[02:44:05] I've always received so much...
[02:44:07] Encouragement from...
[02:44:08] Adults in my...
[02:44:09] Serenity...
[02:44:13] About my...
[02:44:14] Talking skills...
[02:44:15] And...
[02:44:16] Of course...
[02:44:17] I've benefited from that as well...
[02:44:23] Okay...
[02:44:24] So I...
[02:44:24] I digress...
[02:44:28] What about you Sleepy?
[02:44:29] Are you still with me?
[02:44:31] Or...
[02:44:32] Have you drifted off to sleep?
[02:44:33] It's okay either way...
[02:44:34] By the way...
[02:44:35] It's okay...
[02:44:37] Either way...
[02:44:37] By the way...
[02:44:38] I'm still...
[02:44:38] I'm still...
[02:44:39] Jenny from the block...
[02:44:40] I used to have a little...
[02:44:42] Now I have a lot...
[02:44:45] As the poet......
[02:44:47] Stated...
[02:44:48] Back in the
[02:44:48] day... Would you consider
[02:44:53] J-Lo... A poet?
[02:44:56] Is J-Lo...
[02:44:57] A poet? That's
[02:44:59] the question...
[02:45:01] If she suddenly started...
[02:45:03] To call herself... A
[02:45:04] poet...
[02:45:06] Would the...
[02:45:07] World agree?
[02:45:10] Or would they...
[02:45:11] Object?
[02:45:13] Maybe that's the most important question...
[02:45:16] Ever to be asked on a podcast...
[02:45:18] Meant for sleeping...
[02:45:19] If it is...
[02:45:21] Please let me know...
[02:45:23] And...
[02:45:23] Maybe...
[02:45:24] Even tell me the answer...
[02:45:26] To the question...
[02:45:26] Because I don't know...
[02:45:28] Of course it's poetry...
[02:45:30] When you write stuff...
[02:45:32] Especially stuff that rhymes...
[02:45:34] I mean...
[02:45:35] What...
[02:45:36] Difference is...
[02:45:37] Between a song lyric...
[02:45:39] And a poem...
[02:45:43] There really...
[02:45:43] There is no difference...
[02:45:44] The only difference is...
[02:45:46] That one is aimed for music...
[02:45:47] And one is aimed for...
[02:45:49] Just being as it is...
[02:45:56] So the second...
[02:45:57] The second...
[02:45:57] Type of furniture...
[02:45:58] That Sarah...
[02:46:00] Learned to do...
[02:46:02] Was cuckoo clocks...
[02:46:04] And if you know anything about cuckoo clocks...
[02:46:07] You know that...
[02:46:08] It's a very complex mechanism...
[02:46:10] And it's a very hard thing to do...
[02:46:12] Especially if you want them to look like...
[02:46:14] Those intricate...
[02:46:16] Old cuckoo clocks...
[02:46:17] That...
[02:46:18] Used to frequent homes...
[02:46:20] In like the 30s and 40s...
[02:46:24] So...
[02:46:25] She...
[02:46:26] Immediately mastered this profession...
[02:46:28] Way better...
[02:46:30] Than Billy...
[02:46:31] And Billy...
[02:46:32] Decided...
[02:46:33] Right there and then...
[02:46:35] That...
[02:46:36] Sarah was going to be his...
[02:46:37] Cuckoo clock maker...
[02:46:39] And he gave her a salary...
[02:46:41] Which consisted of...
[02:46:43] Since she was only 8...
[02:46:45] He paid for her schooling...
[02:46:47] Because that wasn't...
[02:46:48] Paid for by the...
[02:46:49] City...
[02:46:50] And...
[02:46:50] He also...
[02:46:52] Gave her a place to...
[02:46:53] To stay...
[02:46:55] At his place...
[02:46:56] He became her legal guardian...
[02:46:58] And of course...
[02:46:59] Her real parents didn't mind...
[02:47:01] Because they were a chair and a table...
[02:47:04] And...
[02:47:04] They can't talk...
[02:47:06] They don't have a brain...
[02:47:09] They don't have a sense of...
[02:47:11] Whether or not they are...
[02:47:12] They are parents...
[02:47:15] It's impossible for a chair...
[02:47:17] To realize...
[02:47:19] That it's a chair...
[02:47:20] And it's equally impossible...
[02:47:22] For a table...
[02:47:23] To realize...
[02:47:24] That it's also...
[02:47:25] A parent...
[02:47:28] It's impossible...
[02:47:30] It's impossible...
[02:47:31] That can't happen...
[02:47:32] Because...
[02:47:33] Tables...
[02:47:33] Don't have brains...
[02:47:36] And of course...
[02:47:37] Well maybe now I realize...
[02:47:39] When saying it out loud...
[02:47:40] Of course there could be...
[02:47:42] A potentiality that...
[02:47:44] A chair or a...
[02:47:45] Table is...
[02:47:46] Being brought into this world...
[02:47:48] Containing a brain...
[02:47:51] A conscious brain...
[02:47:53] A table brain...
[02:47:55] But it's very...
[02:47:57] Very...
[02:47:58] Rare...
[02:48:00] The number of ways...
[02:48:02] A table is...
[02:48:03] Built...
[02:48:04] Without the brain...
[02:48:05] Is...
[02:48:06] So much bigger...
[02:48:08] Than the number of ways...
[02:48:09] A table with a brain...
[02:48:11] Can be created...
[02:48:11] It takes some sort of an effort...
[02:48:17] To...
[02:48:18] Make a...
[02:48:19] Conscious brain...
[02:48:20] Work...
[02:48:21] Inside...
[02:48:22] A...
[02:48:23] Solid object...
[02:48:24] Like a table...
[02:48:25] So Billy didn't have any problem...
[02:48:28] With the...
[02:48:28] Adoption...
[02:48:29] Of Sarah...
[02:48:30] And...
[02:48:31] Then...
[02:48:31] She became his daughter...
[02:48:33] And...
[02:48:34] They started the business together...
[02:48:36] And...
[02:48:38] She built...
[02:48:39] The most exquisite...
[02:48:40] Cuckoo clocks...
[02:48:42] They were...
[02:48:44] Like...
[02:48:47] Golden...
[02:48:48] And...
[02:48:52] Bone white...
[02:48:54] And...
[02:48:55] Silver...
[02:48:56] And...
[02:48:57] All...
[02:48:58] Ebony black...
[02:49:00] And...
[02:49:01] They were made out of different materials...
[02:49:04] There were wood...
[02:49:05] And all...
[02:49:05] All kinds of metal...
[02:49:06] And also obsidian...
[02:49:08] She...
[02:49:09] Had this...
[02:49:10] Beautiful...
[02:49:11] Cuckoo clock...
[02:49:12] Which was made...
[02:49:13] Almost entirely out of...
[02:49:15] One...
[02:49:16] Big chunk of obsidian...
[02:49:18] There were a few extra objects...
[02:49:20] That were wooden...
[02:49:21] Like the...
[02:49:22] Hatches...
[02:49:23] Where the...
[02:49:23] Where the...
[02:49:24] The cuckoo...
[02:49:26] Bird...
[02:49:27] Came out...
[02:49:28] At certain times of the day...
[02:49:32] But all the other...
[02:49:34] The...
[02:49:34] All the other...
[02:49:35] Main parts...
[02:49:37] Of the...
[02:49:37] Of the cuckoo clock...
[02:49:39] Was...
[02:49:39] Just this...
[02:49:42] Piece...
[02:49:43] This chunk...
[02:49:45] This consistent chunk of...
[02:49:47] Obsidian...
[02:49:48] And...
[02:49:49] And it was very bulky...
[02:49:51] And...
[02:49:51] Looked sort of gothic...
[02:49:53] And it was...
[02:49:55] Beautiful...
[02:49:55] And...
[02:49:56] She wouldn't sell it...
[02:49:58] She wanted to keep it for...
[02:49:59] For herself...
[02:50:00] And she did...
[02:50:04] And...
[02:50:04] They lived happily ever after...
[02:50:08] And he came out of his shell...
[02:50:10] A bit...
[02:50:11] He...
[02:50:14] She lured him out...
[02:50:15] Into the world...
[02:50:16] And...
[02:50:18] It didn't hurt him...
[02:50:19] The world didn't hurt him...
[02:50:21] He was happy...
[02:50:22] With it...
[02:50:24] And he was...
[02:50:27] He realized that...
[02:50:29] He does...
[02:50:30] You do need people...
[02:50:32] You can enjoy...
[02:50:34] Your own...
[02:50:35] Loneliness...
[02:50:40] But...
[02:50:41] You still need...
[02:50:42] People...
[02:50:45] No man is...
[02:50:46] An island...
[02:50:47] As J-Lo sang...
[02:50:49] Back in the day...
[02:50:52] J-Lo...
[02:50:53] She also sings this...
[02:50:55] She also wrote this...
[02:50:56] Very epic...
[02:50:58] A song...
[02:51:00] Called...
[02:51:01] The Sound of Silence...
[02:51:05] So...
[02:51:06] When saying this...
[02:51:07] I need to remind you...
[02:51:08] If you're a new sleepy...
[02:51:10] You need to...
[02:51:11] Be remembered...
[02:51:13] You need to...
[02:51:14] You need to remember...
[02:51:16] That...
[02:51:17] Nothing I say in this podcast...
[02:51:19] Is necessarily true...
[02:51:21] Some things are true...
[02:51:23] But...
[02:51:25] Most of it is not...
[02:51:28] So maybe J-Lo wrote...
[02:51:30] The Sound of Silence...
[02:51:32] By Simon and Garfunkel...
[02:51:34] In some other universe...
[02:51:36] You don't know...
[02:51:42] So this was a story...
[02:51:46] Maybe it's not finished yet...
[02:51:47] Maybe...
[02:51:48] Okay...
[02:51:49] So Billy...
[02:51:50] Became old...
[02:51:50] And he...
[02:51:51] He never retired...
[02:51:52] Because...
[02:51:53] Who would want to retire...
[02:51:54] When you do something you like?
[02:51:56] I actually think...
[02:51:58] That myself...
[02:51:59] I don't think I will ever retire...
[02:52:00] And just sit down...
[02:52:02] And do nothing...
[02:52:03] Or just do gardening...
[02:52:04] Or whatever...
[02:52:06] I...
[02:52:07] Think I will...
[02:52:09] Work for my...
[02:52:10] Entire life...
[02:52:12] If I can...
[02:52:14] And are able to...
[02:52:17] I can't...
[02:52:18] Think of anything worse...
[02:52:19] Than just...
[02:52:21] Stop...
[02:52:22] And just...
[02:52:24] Sitting on my ass...
[02:52:26] And...
[02:52:27] Smoke a pipe...
[02:52:28] Or...
[02:52:29] You know...
[02:52:30] Although it sounds appealing...
[02:52:36] But...
[02:52:36] I couldn't do it...
[02:52:39] I want to feel useful...
[02:52:41] I want to feel like I belong...
[02:52:45] I want to feel like I touch...
[02:52:47] And...
[02:52:48] I want to feel like...
[02:52:49] I am touched...
[02:52:52] And...
[02:52:52] I care so much about you...
[02:53:11] So...
[02:53:14] Eventually Billy...
[02:53:15] Passed away...
[02:53:16] And...
[02:53:18] Sarah mourned him...
[02:53:20] Of course...
[02:53:21] Because...
[02:53:22] He was her father...
[02:53:24] In all...
[02:53:25] Ways that matter...
[02:53:27] And...
[02:53:28] She kept the business going...
[02:53:32] She married...
[02:53:33] This woman called...
[02:53:38] Berica...
[02:53:40] So...
[02:53:41] Berica and Sarah...
[02:53:42] Took over the business...
[02:53:43] And...
[02:53:47] Also opened up a few...
[02:53:48] Other stores...
[02:53:50] From...
[02:53:51] Backlons...
[02:53:51] Furniture...
[02:53:52] In...
[02:53:53] Other parts...
[02:53:54] Of the country...
[02:53:55] And people...
[02:53:57] Tended to really love...
[02:53:58] What they made...
[02:54:00] Not just the cuckoo clocks...
[02:54:02] Because Berica's specialty...
[02:54:03] Was not cuckoo clocks...
[02:54:05] Berica's specialty was...
[02:54:07] All...
[02:54:08] Types of tables...
[02:54:09] And they were...
[02:54:11] Like...
[02:54:11] If you can imagine...
[02:54:13] Like the most beautiful table...
[02:54:14] You've ever seen...
[02:54:15] Just like that...
[02:54:16] But add some...
[02:54:18] So...
[02:54:19] It was...
[02:54:21] Brilliant...
[02:54:22] And...
[02:54:23] Empathic...
[02:54:24] I would say...
[02:54:25] Empathic designs...
[02:54:27] Designs that really...
[02:54:29] Saw the troubles...
[02:54:30] Of the human way...
[02:54:31] The humankind...
[02:54:33] You know...
[02:54:35] Oh God...
[02:54:36] It's like...
[02:54:37] You know...
[02:54:37] Think of a table...
[02:54:38] Sleepy...
[02:54:40] Sleepy...
[02:54:41] Sorry...
[02:54:41] Sorry for the slur...
[02:54:44] The slurring...
[02:54:46] But...
[02:54:47] So think of a table...
[02:54:48] And think of it as a place...
[02:54:50] Where you can put your...
[02:54:53] Weary mind...
[02:54:57] A table where you can put your...
[02:55:00] Heavy thoughts...
[02:55:03] So it gets easier for you...
[02:55:05] For a while...
[02:55:07] Of course you need to carry that...
[02:55:10] Eventually again...
[02:55:11] But you also need to rest...
[02:55:14] You also need to...
[02:55:15] Stop carrying for a while...
[02:55:22] I...
[02:55:23] Usually...
[02:55:24] Are very helped by...
[02:55:26] That image...
[02:55:28] That I put my...
[02:55:30] Troubles...
[02:55:31] And my...
[02:55:33] Heavy emotion...
[02:55:35] And my...
[02:55:36] Heavy mind...
[02:55:37] On this imaginary table...
[02:55:40] And doing so...
[02:55:43] Everything gets easier...
[02:55:47] So I usually do this...
[02:55:48] When I meditate...
[02:55:50] I think of my breathing...
[02:55:53] As this table...
[02:55:56] This...
[02:55:57] If you...
[02:55:58] If you're moving...
[02:55:59] Then you can put wheels...
[02:56:01] On your imaginary table...
[02:56:03] So that you can just...
[02:56:04] Drag the table with you...
[02:56:05] It becomes a cart...
[02:56:07] So...
[02:56:08] You don't have to leave the table...
[02:56:10] If you don't want to let go...
[02:56:12] Of your minds altogether...
[02:56:14] You can just...
[02:56:15] Put them on the table...
[02:56:16] For a while...
[02:56:19] You need to deal with them...
[02:56:21] Eventually...
[02:56:21] You need to do something...
[02:56:22] With them or about them...
[02:56:23] But you can't do something...
[02:56:25] With them all the time...
[02:56:26] And then they can be there...
[02:56:27] On the table...
[02:56:28] Just for a while...
[02:56:29] And you can drag the table...
[02:56:31] Along with you...
[02:56:32] Or you can just leave it there...
[02:56:33] And stand still...
[02:56:37] That really helps me...
[02:56:41] Whenever I...
[02:56:42] Catch the thought...
[02:56:44] And make it an actionable thing...
[02:56:46] In my mind...
[02:56:50] So tables...
[02:56:52] Are a good commodity...
[02:56:55] If I...
[02:56:56] Were to change careers...
[02:56:59] I would...
[02:57:01] Make a living...
[02:57:02] As an expert in table building...
[02:57:07] I mean it's...
[02:57:08] Easy enough to...
[02:57:09] To conceive of...
[02:57:11] The idea of building a table...
[02:57:12] It's just four legs...
[02:57:14] Or maybe one leg...
[02:57:15] Or two legs...
[02:57:16] It doesn't matter...
[02:57:17] 58...
[02:57:18] Legs if you want...
[02:57:20] And this surface...
[02:57:22] That you can put stuff on...
[02:57:28] I am a table...
[02:57:32] Right now...
[02:57:33] I am your table...
[02:57:34] Sleepy...
[02:57:35] To put your weary mind on...
[02:57:38] It doesn't matter...
[02:57:39] That I can't hear you...
[02:57:41] It doesn't matter...
[02:57:42] That I can't...
[02:57:43] See your thoughts...
[02:57:45] And your mind...
[02:57:48] It doesn't matter...
[02:57:49] What matters is that...
[02:57:51] I'm here...
[02:57:52] You can put it on me...
[02:57:53] You can put your mind on me...
[02:57:55] This...
[02:57:56] This...
[02:57:57] This...
[02:57:57] This...
[02:57:58] Moment...
[02:58:02] That's a function...
[02:58:05] Not a service...
[02:58:06] It's a function...
[02:58:08] It's a fact...
[02:58:10] Not a want...
[02:58:14] It is what it is...
[02:58:17] What happens...
[02:58:18] Happens...
[02:58:21] And right now...
[02:58:22] There is nothing we can do...
[02:58:27] And so...
[02:58:28] I just concluded my first...
[02:58:31] Ever...
[02:58:32] Story...
[02:58:32] In an English...
[02:58:33] Podcast episode...
[02:58:35] What did you think?
[02:58:37] Was it...
[02:58:37] Okay?
[02:58:39] Did it do anything for you?
[02:58:41] Or was it like...
[02:58:43] No...
[02:58:44] Please go back...
[02:58:44] Talking about...
[02:58:45] Only you and your week...
[02:58:47] And stuff...
[02:58:49] I can say this much...
[02:58:50] It helps me a lot...
[02:58:51] It helps me...
[02:58:55] Because of course...
[02:58:57] Everything is from me...
[02:58:59] And about me anyway...
[02:59:00] And...
[02:59:04] I pour from...
[02:59:06] What's going on...
[02:59:07] Within me...
[02:59:09] And...
[02:59:10] It's in...
[02:59:11] Sort of a weird way...
[02:59:13] Therapy for me...
[02:59:18] Because I had a rough week...
[02:59:22] And...
[02:59:26] This...
[02:59:28] This feels like a very good...
[02:59:30] Conclusion...
[02:59:38] Sleepy...
[02:59:39] I hope that...
[02:59:40] Wherever you are...
[02:59:41] You are okay...
[02:59:43] I hope you are alright...
[02:59:46] I hope you feel confident enough to...
[02:59:50] Express what you need and what you want...
[02:59:53] To the people that's close to you...
[02:59:57] I hope that you...
[03:00:01] Feel...
[03:00:01] Entitled and...
[03:00:04] Loved and...
[03:00:06] Listened to...
[03:00:09] I hope that you feel...
[03:00:14] Inspired...
[03:00:18] And...
[03:00:18] Promised...
[03:00:21] And...
[03:00:22] Curious...
[03:00:27] I hope that the stream...
[03:00:29] That...
[03:00:30] Runs through you...
[03:00:32] Feels...
[03:00:33] Warm and...
[03:00:35] Pure...
[03:00:36] And that's...
[03:00:37] Fuzzy...
[03:00:38] I know...
[03:00:38] It's a very fluffy way of...
[03:00:42] Expressing...
[03:00:43] Myself...
[03:00:44] But it's...
[03:00:45] Also...
[03:00:46] It's a sense...
[03:00:46] It's a real sense...
[03:00:48] I often have that sense that...
[03:00:49] It's a stream going through me...
[03:00:51] And sometimes that stream is...
[03:00:53] Very rippled and...
[03:00:55] Chaotic...
[03:00:57] And sometimes...
[03:00:58] It's just the...
[03:01:00] The river Nile...
[03:01:01] You know...
[03:01:01] At this...
[03:01:03] Calm...
[03:01:07] Peaceful...
[03:01:08] Clear...
[03:01:08] Junctions...
[03:01:13] So thank you for being here...
[03:01:15] Again...
[03:01:18] I didn't prepare...
[03:01:20] So...
[03:01:21] This is what it is...
[03:01:23] If you like what I do...
[03:01:26] Please come back...
[03:01:27] I'm growing...
[03:01:29] This podcast is growing...
[03:01:31] And...
[03:01:32] I would like it...
[03:01:33] To be a thing...
[03:01:35] In the future...
[03:01:39] I love you...
[03:01:41] Sleep tight...
[03:01:43] And...
[03:01:44] Goodnight sleepy...
[03:01:45] Wherever...
[03:01:46] You might...
[03:01:47] Be...
