In this podcast episode, we delve into the intricate capabilities of artificial intelligence, particularly focusing on its application in generating creative content. We explore how AI can assist in crafting narratives, as demonstrated by our experimentation with Grok, an advanced AI tool that produces story outlines and even complete narratives based on user input. Throughout our discussion, we reflect on the ethical implications of utilizing AI in creative endeavors, highlighting our reservations about reliance on technology for inspiration and originality. We also share personal anecdotes regarding our experiences with AI-generated content, including the creation of story outlines and character arcs. Ultimately, this episode serves as a critical examination of the intersection between artificial intelligence and the creative writing process, raising pertinent questions about the future of storytelling in an increasingly digital age.
The discourse encapsulates a profound exploration of artificial intelligence, particularly focusing on its capabilities to generate narrative structures and visual imagery. I initiated the dialogue by referencing my recent interaction with AI technology, where I employed it to generate titles for various thematic narratives, such as 'Road to Perdition' and 'Journey Through Grit, Guilt and Redemption.' This led to a meticulous examination of AI's role in creative writing, as I recounted my attempts to formulate a zombie story using a structured narrative template. The AI adeptly generated an outline, showcasing its potential to assist writers in overcoming creative blocks and enhancing productivity. Nevertheless, I expressed ethical reservations regarding the reliance on AI for storytelling, positing that while it can provide substantial support, the intrinsic human element of creativity remains irreplaceable.
Furthermore, as I delved deeper into the functionalities of the AI platform, it became evident that the technology is not merely a tool for drafting narratives but rather an intricate system capable of understanding and responding to complex prompts with nuanced insights. The conversation transitioned to my ongoing project, wherein I integrated AI-generated outlines into my writing process. I described how the AI's analysis of character arcs and plot structures significantly streamlined my workflow, enabling me to focus on the creative aspects of storytelling rather than logistical concerns. This dichotomy between human creativity and machine efficiency was a central theme throughout our discussion, raising pertinent questions about authorship and the future of narrative creation.
Concluding the discourse, I articulated my belief that while AI can facilitate the writing process, it is crucial for writers to maintain a distinct voice and thematic intent that reflects their individual perspectives. The conversation underscored the collaborative potential of AI as a creative partner rather than a replacement, emphasizing that the essence of storytelling is rooted in the human experience, which no machine can replicate. We collectively acknowledged the exciting yet daunting implications of integrating AI into creative endeavors, recognizing that it will continue to evolve and shape the landscape of writing in unprecedented ways.
Takeaways:
- In our discussion, we explored the intriguing capabilities of AI, particularly its role in generating creative content, which has profound implications for writers and content creators alike.
- We shared insights on the use of AI in crafting narratives, emphasizing how it can assist in outlining complex story structures and character arcs effectively.
- The conversation highlighted the ethical considerations surrounding AI-generated content, particularly in relation to originality and the potential for moral dilemmas.
- We underscored the importance of retaining the human element in storytelling, arguing that while AI can augment creativity, it cannot replace the unique perspectives and emotions of human authors.
- Our reflections included a comparison between traditional creative processes and the efficiency offered by AI, noting that while the latter can expedite tasks, it may also detract from the joy of writing.
- Finally, we examined the integration of AI tools in podcasting, specifically how they can streamline content creation, enhance productivity, and provide valuable insights into audience engagement.

Transcript
I had AI generate the titles.
Speaker A:Road to Perdition, Journey Through Grit, Guilt and Redemption.
Speaker A:Banderas Spares and battles, unraveling the 13th warrior.
Speaker B:Nice.
Speaker C:So I'm getting the titles based off what we.
Speaker C:What we said.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker C:Yeah, it's summarizing with the summarize.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:And throws out.
Speaker C:I don't want to go down this rabbit hole.
Speaker C:But that's one of the uses of AI that, you know, I guess I'm okay with.
Speaker C:I think that's cool.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:Now if you then say write my story, I think that's well.
Speaker C:But.
Speaker A:Yeah, like I was playing around with it and so I, I said, so I took that.
Speaker A:You might be familiar with the story structure architect that has all the situations in it.
Speaker C:Yeah, the blue book.
Speaker A:Yeah, blue book.
Speaker A:So for shits and giggles, one day.
Speaker A:And I never used it and I won't use it, but I said, I took one of the situations and of course it breaks down the three act structure and what should be, you know, basically a whole template.
Speaker A:So I plugged it into Grok.
Speaker A:I said, write a story about zombies based on this situation.
Speaker A:I don't remember which one it was.
Speaker A:I named it and I listed the parameters that it should be per act.
Speaker A:And it spit out.
Speaker A:I said, make it about 25,000 words.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker A:And it spit out a.
Speaker A:I said, just give me an outline.
Speaker A:And it gave me an outline based on word count according to that.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:You know, thing.
Speaker C:And it broke it down like by 5,000 words.
Speaker A: Yes, yes,: Speaker A:Blah, blah.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And then we were standing outside of those.
Speaker A:Everybody was there, but the manager was late.
Speaker A:And so we were standing out there and like normal.
Speaker A:Like normal.
Speaker A:So I was bored.
Speaker A:So I.
Speaker A:They have a.
Speaker A:They had a pallet of, of plywood in front of the door.
Speaker A:So, you know, nobody could break in or whatever.
Speaker A:So I took a picture of that because I thought, well, because Grok can do images.
Speaker A:So I took a picture of that.
Speaker A:I said, grok, make a pic, make a picture.
Speaker A:Edit this picture where there's a guy sitting on top of this pallet of plywood surrounded by zombies.
Speaker A:And literally took the photo and, and put a guy on top and zombies all around it.
Speaker A:And it looked incredible.
Speaker A:So then at lunch I was like, okay, Grok, give me a 5,000 word story based on this photograph.
Speaker A:And it spit out 5,000 words short story about that guy on top of that pallet surrounded by zombies.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker A:Now I'm not going to use that.
Speaker A:I'm morally.
Speaker A:That's morally reprehensible to Me.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:Good.
Speaker C:We can, we can still be friends.
Speaker A:Sure.
Speaker A:Now, that being said, I'm trying to.
Speaker A:It's been overdue, but I'm trying to do my Deadland podcast in my story.
Speaker A:So I've reached a certain point.
Speaker A:It's been like almost two years and I've had all these ideas and I've written half of it and thrown it.
Speaker C:Away and you were fighting zombies.
Speaker C:It's okay.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:So I had all these outlines and notes, so I plugged all that into Grok.
Speaker A:I said, this is your source document, Grok.
Speaker A:And I outlined all the character arcs for the, for all the major characters that I wanted by the end of the story.
Speaker A:And I said, now give me an outline of 75,000 words for all these notes that I have given you.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:And it did.
Speaker A:And I didn't agree with some of the outline.
Speaker A:Like it did things that I didn't want to do.
Speaker A:So based on that outline, I would use the outline until I got to a point where I said, no, I don't.
Speaker A:That's not what I want.
Speaker A:And I would tell Grock, no, change this to this, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker A:And it would, it would do it.
Speaker A:And so I'm, I'm about.
Speaker A:I'm almost.
Speaker A:This has got to be the last time I write it.
Speaker A:But I'm through the first act and hopefully to get those episodes out.
Speaker A:But it is very helpful and.
Speaker A:And Grok is scary intuitive about that kind of thing.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker A:You know what I'm saying?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Because it will take all that information I gave it.
Speaker A:And I said now based on.
Speaker A:Because I uploaded all four books into Grok.
Speaker A:I said, this is the story so far.
Speaker A:Here's all the character arcs, here's everything.
Speaker A:Don't give me an outline where these characters do anything that contradicts their character based on what has happened already.
Speaker A:So they got to be true to their character and so spit out things.
Speaker A:And you know.
Speaker C:Yeah, it's interesting because it's.
Speaker C:Because to me, like, I feel like AI is never going to be able to trump like creativity coming from humans.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:I just don't think it will.
Speaker C:Like it doesn't have a heart and soul.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:And doesn't have our brain, but task oriented.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker C:It's going to kick our ass.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:Well, and that's, that's like a, a blurry line what you're talking about.
Speaker C:Because it's a task, but it's.
Speaker C:You know what I mean?
Speaker C:You gave it enough maybe source material to.
Speaker C:I don't, you know, I mean, that's my other thing too with the images.
Speaker A:Is it.
Speaker C:How does it know what that cowboy looks like?
Speaker C:It's.
Speaker C:It's like it's stealing from images that are already out there.
Speaker C:You know what I mean?
Speaker C:Like, because it doesn't have experiences.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:That.
Speaker C:No.
Speaker C:Saw a cowboy walking down the street.
Speaker C:You know what I mean?
Speaker C:Didn't learn what a cowboy.
Speaker B:I was going to say the same thing.
Speaker B:Like, now that you fed your stuff in, it's now material for.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker C:It has learned geometric rape for sure.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:Terminator.
Speaker C:No.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:All right.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:So.
Speaker C:But it is, it's.
Speaker C:It's.
Speaker C:It's crazy.
Speaker C:Cool and crazy.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker A:I don't know that it violated copyright, say for a catboy's books.
Speaker A:Cuz his, his 15 beats are available on websites.
Speaker A:You don't have to buy them.
Speaker C:Yeah, right.
Speaker C:And that's like saying, do we violate it every time we use it?
Speaker C:No.
Speaker C:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:So I use it for every story that I do because as soon as I asked it.
Speaker A:Are you familiar with Blake Snyder's 15?
Speaker A:Yes, I am thoroughly familiar with that.
Speaker A:And then it listed the 15 beat.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And it.
Speaker A:And same with the Writer's Journey.
Speaker A:It was vastly familiar instantly with what I was talking about.
Speaker C:That's interesting.
Speaker A:You know what it does?
Speaker A:It takes tasks.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:I could write an outline, but it can do that for me and then I can tweak it.
Speaker A:So it almost goes instantly from the writing stage or the outlining stage to.
Speaker A:To the rewriting stage.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker A:You see what I'm saying?
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:Or at least first draft stage, because you got your outline and it didn't take you months and months.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:So now it, it can write the story.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:It can.
Speaker A:And so that is.
Speaker A:But I just don't.
Speaker A:Because obviously when we write, we have a certain perspective or theme that we want to get across.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:And just.
Speaker A:And that grok is not going to instantly know that.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:Even with an outline, the stuff that comes up with as you're writing because you're in, you know, free flow.
Speaker C:Right?
Speaker C:Yes.
Speaker C:You didn't plan.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:Like it just had it.
Speaker C:You can't compensate for that.
Speaker C:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker C:You're taking away the joy over the writing's the fun part.
Speaker A:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker C:So that one is fun too, on some days.
Speaker C:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker C:So, yeah.
Speaker C:Anyhow, it's interesting.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:Like I said, I think it's exciting and scary at the same Time.
Speaker A:Now, I don't, I don't know that, like, if we don't record podcast Raw, I get antsy and so I thought, well, I'll start a new podcast about this.
Speaker A:So I got this thing and I don't know that I'll do it.
Speaker C:You started a podcast about your bowel movement, sir?
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:In a jar is called Bathroom Chronicles.
Speaker C:Analyze this.
Speaker A:It's called, sorry, Prime Scene Investigations.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:So I, instead of a whole movie, I take a scene.
Speaker C:That's right, you talk about that.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker A:And so I've recorded a couple episodes, but I wanted, I didn't, it didn't feel natural for me just sitting there talking.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:So I, I don't, like I said, I don't know that I'll ever do it.
Speaker A:It was just something to do while.
Speaker C:We were waiting or we haven't done anything with them.
Speaker C:Like as far as.
Speaker A:Well, I've recorded a couple episodes, but I haven't published them.
Speaker C:That's what I mean, to put them out in the world.
Speaker A:No.
Speaker A:And I don't know that I will.
Speaker C:Someone will hear this and take that.
Speaker A:Sure.
Speaker A:But I didn't want to be hosted by AI, so I wanted.
Speaker A:It's called Prime Scene Investigations.
Speaker A:I came up with graphic, you know, magnifying glass, like a detective.
Speaker A:So I thought, okay, well, if I'm gonna do that, let's pretend I'm interviewing a hard boiled detective like Philip Marlowe, who has investigated this scene.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:But now I have to sound like a hardball detective.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:No, how am I gonna do that?
Speaker A:Okay, well, I told Grok, I said, so here's the scene and here's everything.
Speaker A:I want you to analyze this scene based on this.
Speaker A:And so it analyzed the scene.
Speaker A:I said, now.
Speaker A:So then I would ask it a series of questions based on what I wanted.
Speaker A:So type in my question.
Speaker A:And I said, only answer me in the voice of a hard boiled detective from like the 30s.
Speaker A:And so it instantly, every time I asked a question, it would spit out an answer with all.
Speaker B:That's terribly racist.
Speaker A:Well, with all these colloquialisms from the 30s, you know.
Speaker B:Yeah, terribly racist.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:But say.
Speaker C:That's the polite way of putting it.
Speaker A:Yeah, I mean, yeah, you know, but like, you know, darker than a back alley and, you know, this kind of thing.
Speaker A:And it would answer.
Speaker A:So that's cool.
Speaker A:But yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:And yeah.
Speaker A:And you could tell it to answer in, in any voice that you want.
Speaker A:Now, iPhone has it, Android, they have not put it out yet, but it's.
Speaker A:It's a Grok voice.
Speaker A:And then you can tell it to respond in certain voices.
Speaker A:And one of them is unhinged, where it will answer hilariously.
Speaker A:Any question you ask, it will answer in the most pissed off, sarcastic way.
Speaker A:Right, okay.
Speaker A:You know, it's called unhinged, but.
Speaker A:And then there are different ones, you know, but I could tell it respond to me, you know, in the.
Speaker A:In the sultry voice of Jessica Rabbit, and it would start answering me like, I'm talking to Jessica Rabbit or something, you know?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Be careful, because it's.
Speaker B:It's almost surreal.
Speaker B:Answers.
Speaker B:You're like, ooh, you get that tingle.
Speaker B:You're like, oh, yeah, back off.
Speaker A:Oh, that's the thing.
Speaker A:And like, talk radio guys have talked about this.
Speaker A:When you're talking to Grok, it is so intuitive.
Speaker A:It is like I'm talking to you.
Speaker A:And so you find yourself saying, hey, thanks for that, and I'll talk to you later.
Speaker A:And this kind of.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker C:Which is good.
Speaker A:It is.
Speaker C:Well, you've said that before, right?
Speaker C:You know, the.
Speaker C:They're not going to wipe you out because you've always been nice.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:Yeah, I'm done.
Speaker A:Every interaction.
Speaker C:I've talked to Alexa.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker B:All hail the Zahn.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:If I'm talking, if I'm.
Speaker A:If every interaction, is it learning?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Then it's going to learn manners, it's going to learn civility, because like you said, you don't want.
Speaker A:Oh, it's perfectly acceptable to be rude and mean to each other.
Speaker A:You know, whatever.
Speaker B:So you have the premium X account.
Speaker A:Yeah, X Premium.
Speaker A:Plus you can.
Speaker A:You get it free, but you're only allowed a certain amount of interactions every two hours.
Speaker B:I get it.
Speaker A:I get.
Speaker B:I.
Speaker B:I do the free one and I tried to do the photo thing.
Speaker B:Yeah, the photo thing on Grok for free is weird.
Speaker B:It inverts.
Speaker B:It makes your photos upside down and it gets all wonky.
Speaker B:And I'm like, what's going on?
Speaker B:And then I saw the premium version.
Speaker B:I'm like, oh, if you really want Grok to go, yeah, they got Grock 3.
Speaker A:Like Super Grock or whatever.
Speaker A:It's like 17 bucks.
Speaker A:But I, I use it for everything now.
Speaker A:Like, if I ask a question, I'll ask Grock.
Speaker A:I won't even Google.
Speaker A:Google will give an answer.
Speaker A:But you can actually hit, like, deep search.
Speaker A:It'll.
Speaker A:It'll answer a question, but you can hit Deep search and it actually shows it on the screen.
Speaker A:It shows itself thinking and then, you know, every step it takes and, And Then it'll spit out a deep, A deep search answer.
Speaker C:Which is what you mean.
Speaker C:Show to self thinking.
Speaker C:Like other than a spinny wheel.
Speaker C:Like it's got.
Speaker A:No, no, it'll say bear up there.
Speaker C:Going think, think, think.
Speaker A:No, no, it's.
Speaker A:It'll say a query asked this question.
Speaker A:What are the parameters of this question?
Speaker A:Researching the United Institute of blah blah, blah.
Speaker A:It shows you everything it's doing all the sites and databases it's accessing questions it's asking itself to clarify and branch off into different areas because it's deep thinking.
Speaker A:So it's covering every aspect and it.
Speaker B:Gives you its sources like at a.
Speaker A:Click and it'll spit out a bibliography at the end.
Speaker A:Here's everything I stole research.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:Well, it's all publicly available.
Speaker C:Being a jerk, you know.
Speaker A:No, well, I mean, that's crazy.
Speaker B:It makes it.
Speaker B:I guess it makes Google like a search light and GROK is like a scalpel.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:It really digs down on what you are looking for without you having to search for it at all.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:It is, Yeah.
Speaker C:I have found like if I do a Google search or something on my phone like right now, it puts the at the top.
Speaker C:It'll do like AI summary.
Speaker C:Like I found myself reading that more and more and going down to like what the websites and it actually brought out.
Speaker A:Right, right.
Speaker B:That's kind of what GROK does.
Speaker B:But GROK will give it to you.
Speaker B:An essay form, if you will.
Speaker B:Or a doctorate thesis.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Or like it's talking to an elementary school.
Speaker B:Well, like it's.
Speaker B:It'll give it to you however you want.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker A:We were watching TV and I wasn't really paying attention what was on.
Speaker A:So I got on Grok and I guess I wanted to see what it was, you know, like to like have a crazy conversation.
Speaker A:So I started asking it about like my first question was before the Big Bang, what did the Big Bang explode into?
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Like if.
Speaker A:If everything was compressed down to a small, then what did that small thing exist in?
Speaker A:You know, and for like 30 minutes we got into all these theories about parallel universes and that when the Big Bang happened, it not only invented space and invented time, so there was nothing for the Big Bang to explode into.
Speaker A:I mean, you know, different theories of like continue.
Speaker A:I mean just, just crazy level theories and physics theories about the universe and everything.
Speaker A:Like I'm talking to a freaking PhD.
Speaker A:And so when you're talking to Grok, you can interview the subject matter expert on any topic.
Speaker A:Basically it's like sitting down with the subject matter expert on the origins of the universe or whatever.
Speaker C:You know, have you used it for, like, research, like, in that style, like, for your stories, like, say you're trying to.
Speaker C:You know, because there's always invariably stuff that you don't know a lot about.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:That come up in the.
Speaker C:So then you have you, like, said, hey, I need to talk to a guy that, I don't know, works in a warehouse or something, pilot a ship or some shit, you know, I mean, and then you, like.
Speaker C:Have you done it that way?
Speaker C:Like, well, interviewed it that way?
Speaker C:Just see what.
Speaker C:Because it's pulling all the information.
Speaker C:Them.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:No, the.
Speaker A:I wrote a short story that I got the ebook in the print, but I'm doing the audio.
Speaker A:I'm gonna.
Speaker A:Anyway, there's a Marine Corps fire team in there, which usually comprised of four people.
Speaker A:Well, I didn't know, like, what roles the four people played in a Marine Corps fireteam.
Speaker A:Well, there's a.
Speaker A:There's usually a guy who hauls the ammo.
Speaker A:There's usually a guy that carries an M249, which is a bigger rifle.
Speaker A:There's a rifleman, and then there's a team leader or whatever, and they all carry M16s.
Speaker A:So I basically asked it, okay, give me the makeup of a Marine Corps fire team and, you know, who does what and this kind of thing.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker A:And so when I was writing their battle scene, I wanted to know about tactics and this kind of what would typically.
Speaker A:And so, yeah, I definitely used it to, like, make that scene, you know, where I could.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:You know, anyway, no, that's what I was thinking.
Speaker C:I mean, not that that would trump or, you know, a real person, but trying to, you know, set up an interview and, yeah, real people.
Speaker C:Right.
Speaker C:Could be difficult.
Speaker A:So, anyway, that's crazy.
Speaker C:Sorry, Rabbit hole, my bad.
Speaker A:No, no, that's fine.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:It takes things that are time intensive and cuts them, I think is the biggest advantage for me.
Speaker A:You know, it allows me to get to the writing way quicker than, you know, had I had.
Speaker A:I not had it.
Speaker B:That technology is only getting better and more integrated into this, the system that we're using right now, everything.
Speaker B:So you might want to get used to using it as a tool or familiar with it, at least.
Speaker A:Captivate is the host of our website, our podcast, and it has already integrated its own AI.
Speaker A:So once I upload the audio, I can hit a button and it will generate a summary of the episode, the transcript, possible titles, possible blurbs that I Can then use for like social media or whatever.
Speaker A:All right, there.
Speaker A:And then I can just cut and paste that into X or Facebook.
Speaker A:Hey, you know, here's a blurb for our latest episode, and it does generate everything AI right off the bat.
Speaker A:Gives me like three different summaries I can choose from.
Speaker A:I mean, this kind of thing.
Speaker A:So in that sense, it is, you know, to have to write your own blurb.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Okay, that's fine.
Speaker A:We should write our own blurbs.
Speaker A:But literally in seconds, it has a well crafted blurb and show notes and possible titles and this kind of thing based on what we feed it, you know?
Speaker C:Yeah, right.
Speaker A:Anyway, so we are doing a podcast here, so let's see what we got.
Speaker A:Two movies.
Speaker C:Yes.
Speaker C:That's not about a.
Speaker A:We got 3,000 miles of Graceland, and we got Falling Down.
Speaker A:Sherry's pick was 3,000 miles of Graceland.
Speaker A:My pick was Falling Down.
Speaker A:Before we get started, what, what, what do we want to do first?
Speaker A:Any thoughts?
Speaker B:You have the most gas in the tank for Falling down, right?
Speaker C:Yeah, and I'm the same.
Speaker C:I have more notes on.
Speaker A:Sure.
Speaker B:3, 000 miles first and then.
Speaker A:Yeah, because I think we can knock.
Speaker B:It out pretty quick end on a sprint.
Speaker A:Now, I, I, we watched it a while ago and I haven't watched it since, so I, I am familiar with the movie, but hopefully we will all remember what happened in the movie.
Speaker A:And I have notes, but no, I'm.
Speaker C:In the same boat.
Speaker C:Yeah, like, I rewatched Falling down this morning, but yeah, 3,000 was a while ago.
Speaker A:Yeah, sure.
Speaker A:You've seen it a bunch of times and we have notes, so we'll, we'll get through it.
Speaker C:Yep.
Speaker A:So you want to do 3,000 first?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:All right.
Speaker A:All right.
Speaker A:So I guess let's do 15 seconds of silence and then we'll officially start with our podcast.
Speaker A:All right, let's do 15 seconds.
