and now it now it's almost like people don't want to go to the movie theater as
much to see a movie
like that but they end up seeing it i feel like most people ended up seeing the
front runner just
not the way in the old days you went to the theater to see it you know like if
silkwood with
meryl streep came out now i don't think it's a signature movie i just think
people find it
eventually on uh yeah they're in a transitional period and i um i think this
pandemic with stuff
like our movie is going straight to streaming yeah um i think that that's going
to become
like i also what i'm hoping in this another thing i'm hoping with this pandemic
thing is i'm hoping
that the zoom meeting becomes a thing all of these poor bastards having to go
to the fucking airport
all the time it's like why don't you just get on a fucking what is it about
having to sit across
that's that old school business thing i want you to sit across me look me in
the eye and i can tell
you i bet you after a while you'll be able to tell you'll be able to judge by
these things whether you
trust me enough to fucking you know buy into my company or something but like i'm
just hoping like
pitching shows we can just do that over zoom as opposed to one of one group of
people having to
cross under over or go on to the 405 at around five o'clock in the afternoon
you just don't need
another six fucking cars out there well i think we talked about this on on this
pod in the past like
it's been amazing what we've learned in the last three months about what we
need to do and not do and
even stuff like podcasts it was always so hard to do pods when somebody was in
the room with you if
there was more than two people and now it's like it's actually kind of easy you
just all get on a
zoom record on your end and you can do it we didn't know that three months ago
you know i think that
there's going to be a number of people that continue to do it you know as far
as far as like
stuff that you need you know chelsea peretti hilarious hilarious comedian uh
actor everything
she's awesome she had this tweet where these people were protesting outside of
city hall
because they wouldn't open gyms and part of the protest they started doing push-ups
and squats
outside of the city hall and she tweeted thus proving that you could you could
do push-ups and squats
anywhere right and i just i don't know i to me i what i loved about that was
like those people were
like almost like how someone who they're in prison too long they're like
institutionalized to the point
where you're literally working out and you you don't consider it working out
because you're not
in a gym listening to lover boy like that's working out you know what i mean
but like right but if i'm
just working out and i'm not in a gym that doesn't count well i i don't know i
was always i always
tried to work from home as much as i could even as my life got more complicated
because i always felt
like i was more productive i could control things more i just got more shit
done and it's been interesting
to watch other people realize that over the past three months like i never
liked to travel for anything i did
because it was like if i try if i go back to new york that's an entire day
flying back you know it's
nine hours from going to the airport the time you land all that stuff so i lose
a whole day the wi-fi
might not work on the airplane then you go and you got to cram everything then
you got to fly back
and i basically lost two days and now i think people are realizing yeah let's
just hop on zoom we'll
bang it out you know we just joined spotify three months ago i think what's
gonna happen all these
people on zoom and that's it you need the herd to like whichever way the herd
runs i'm just hoping it
doesn't go right back to normal and like i think with everything that's going
on environmentally
it's better if there's not a if there's less people driving and less people
flying
and but just the weird thing how money works yeah like they'll say like it's
this fucking disaster
that maybe airlines have to have less flights like that's more of a disaster
than having fresh air
or or whatever but um or maybe i'm just being selfish because i have to travel
for a living
and my overwhelming thought when i go to an airport is where are these people
going
okay and i'm not talking about people in business suits and shit i understand
like that but it'd be
the middle of a fucking school year and you see like a family of like five and
like aren't they
supposed to be in school where the fuck are you going this isn't spring break
they don't have a
vacation it's not the holidays why the fuck are you here right another fucking
seven people
standing in line like i said it's mostly selfish but like um the level the
level of of airline travel
that the average person does compared to when like i was a kid like nobody like
it was like there was
like that was like a big thing if there was a guy in your neighborhood and he
wore a suit and got a
company car and occasionally two or three times a year he took a business trip
like where is that guy
going what is he doing he was a he was it was like borderline fucking james
bond and now i feel like
like like there's soccer moms with no jobs who have higher status on delta
airlines than i do
and i'm doing fucking stand-up gigs every weekend it's just like where the fuck
are you going
well it's like in mad men when don draper would go to la it was like a big deal
i'm going to go to la get some business time so you're in la i think it's the
whole thing where
you watch the travel channel you watch like the food network and they're
showing you all of this
shit you didn't know was out there and they're really just all of these
commercials to just go
to all of these places and also airline travel became cheaper and shit like
that but like
um well i'll tell you it's completely changed los angeles the air is
unbelievable it took like
within four weeks you could actually like feel a difference and see a
difference oh you could
with the less cars see it immediately like i think like uh the cleanest days of
the last 20 years were
like those few days after 9 11 when they grounded all the flights i mean they're
just up there spraying
low lead fuel and we're all driving and we're kicking up dust and doing all of
that stuff it's uh
it would be a uh it would be a really great thing if uh some positive stuff
like that came out it's a
weird thing though because i'm also rooting for people with small businesses
and shit like that so
it's a it's a tough thing well i mean we're getting deep here we're going
beyond we're going
above my pay grade here this is the stuff that i try to avoid thinking about
because it gets too
frustrating everybody starts screaming and typing to me in capital letters yeah
but we could learn
lessons from it like we could have weeks that are designated to be like no
travel let's say let's
try to get the earth back for a week week and things like that there might be
things to learn
