1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,799
Speaker 1: Hello, friends, and welcome to Theme Party the Podcast. I'm

2
00:00:03,839 --> 00:00:06,000
your party host, Merita Mose In case this is your

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,359
first time listening to a TPTP episode, here is what

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,800
we're doing. Every season, I pick a theme and our

5
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,800
team comes up with their own ideas for an audio

6
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,279
drama that somehow fits that theme, even if it only

7
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:16,920
fits if you have to say, oh, let me switch

8
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,320
this right past you. Once they have made their episode,

9
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,519
I invite them to talk about it. I am thrilled

10
00:00:21,519 --> 00:00:24,679
to be here with my party guest, Tyler Hrchuk. Tyler

11
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,679
is a voice actor, voiceover instructor and coach, a copywriter, improviser,

12
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,800
and the person that brings Shrimpy the Shrimp to LFE

13
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,560
for the Disney Zombies series. Tyler, please say hello.

14
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,679
Speaker 2: Hello Marie. Thank you so much for having own you.

15
00:00:37,719 --> 00:00:42,359
Speaker 1: No, not the Marite. Oh god, okay, Well for this series,

16
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,479
what I'm doing at the top of every episode is

17
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,679
I am telling everybody what kind of party I think

18
00:00:47,759 --> 00:00:51,439
they would be, And for you, I think you would

19
00:00:51,439 --> 00:00:55,280
be a sports party, get together watching a big game,

20
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,719
celebrating an event. I specifically think for you of a

21
00:00:59,719 --> 00:01:02,119
mayor and football. I don't know if that would be

22
00:01:02,159 --> 00:01:03,960
your sportive choice. But that is when I think of

23
00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:07,159
a bunch of people sitting around watching the game talking

24
00:01:07,159 --> 00:01:10,319
about sports, just because I know how athletic you are,

25
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,519
how much you enjoy being at a crowd of people

26
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,439
and having a common thing to experience together while also

27
00:01:17,079 --> 00:01:20,599
having casual side conversations and not having to focus too

28
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,000
much on the main event. Does that sound like an

29
00:01:24,079 --> 00:01:25,040
accurate description?

30
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 2: First off, I brought an onion dip. Can I go

31
00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:29,400
on the fridge or yeah, yeah.

32
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:30,599
Speaker 1: There's plenty of room just on the bottom shelf.

33
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 2: Awesome, thank you. It depends on who you'd ask. I

34
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,480
think I think I could see sports party for sure.

35
00:01:37,159 --> 00:01:41,040
I'm not as athletic these days, more so just because

36
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,799
that's what happens as you get older, you find less

37
00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:47,480
time for stuff. I would say I'm probably more of like, oh,

38
00:01:48,439 --> 00:01:52,040
I've become more of a theater kill in my older age.

39
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: Oh no. Switching to the other side.

40
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like more board game party of some kind,

41
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,280
as cringey, as like let's do some improv at this party?

42
00:02:01,519 --> 00:02:04,200
Seems like that also seems fun to me. But I

43
00:02:04,239 --> 00:02:06,439
also will say I was at We'll get to this,

44
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,799
I guess later but I was at a party this

45
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,400
weekend and there was a sports themed game and I

46
00:02:10,479 --> 00:02:13,560
gravitated to it very quickly. All right, So ultimately a

47
00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:16,639
party where there's activities, and I find it insane for

48
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,879
people who are like I just I hate being involved

49
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,759
in activities and games and things like that. I'm like,

50
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:21,400
you're not fun.

51
00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: I agree, even like when my family gets together and

52
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,400
we're all just sitting around doing our own thing. Maybe

53
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,039
it's because I'm like on the cusp of extra version,

54
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,719
but just having a common thing that people can do

55
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,560
rather than just waiting for conversation to come up organically

56
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,439
after you've kind of worked through all the casual chit

57
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,520
chat and small talk and stuff, having like hey, let's

58
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,400
play cards, let's build a lego set or something like that.

59
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it depends on like the crowd too.

60
00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:55,840
That's what I loved about parties in college and in

61
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,240
my early twenties, where there was beer pong, Oh yeah,

62
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,960
go stand by the table, watch you interact. Oh, there's

63
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,840
flip cup, Oh there's this, there's games to be there. Now,

64
00:03:03,879 --> 00:03:06,719
it's like you show up, everyone's just kind of standing around.

65
00:03:06,759 --> 00:03:09,840
Maybe there's music, and you're like I don't know anybody here. Oh,

66
00:03:09,879 --> 00:03:11,439
I know one person in the corner. I'm going to

67
00:03:11,479 --> 00:03:14,159
stick to them like a barnacle on a ship.

68
00:03:14,199 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 1: And then it's not really a party anymore. It's kind

69
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,159
of a casual hangout with other people around.

70
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 2: Yes, And it takes a very adept and deft host

71
00:03:22,039 --> 00:03:25,000
to be like, oh, Tyler Moretta, like you two have

72
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,479
this thing in common. My so they're at least like

73
00:03:28,479 --> 00:03:30,680
trying to encourage like conversation.

74
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: Yep, you mentioned improv parties. What is what is your

75
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,400
favorite improv game to pull out at a party, maybe

76
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,159
with not other people who are familiar with improv.

77
00:03:41,479 --> 00:03:45,319
Speaker 2: One that I did over the weekend in a class

78
00:03:45,479 --> 00:03:49,840
and then last night over zoom Voo. Unfortunately you weren't

79
00:03:49,919 --> 00:03:53,840
weren't able to make it, but I got it off

80
00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:57,080
of There's a podcast called Bad Friends with Andrew Santino

81
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,960
and Bobby Lee, and I don't normally watch it, but

82
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,400
I see YouTube shorts and stuff all the time, and

83
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,719
Santino was like, oh, I ran into You'll never guess

84
00:04:04,719 --> 00:04:08,000
who I saw. I saw Patrick Mahomes and Bobby is

85
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,639
notoriously bad. I don't know if this is a bit

86
00:04:10,759 --> 00:04:13,479
or he's just genuinely dumb. He was like, oh the

87
00:04:13,479 --> 00:04:16,800
basketball player, Oh god, and Andrew immediately went, yeah, he

88
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,600
plays for the Dallas Mavericks. And then they went back

89
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,920
and forth a couple times, and then Bobby's like, wow,

90
00:04:21,959 --> 00:04:23,800
that's right, and he's like, no, he's a quarterback for

91
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,759
the Kansas City Chiefs. So I kind of co opted

92
00:04:26,759 --> 00:04:29,920
that into a game, getting people to like claim that

93
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,680
they saw a famous person and then the person they're

94
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,240
talking to to misrepresent them, like immediately wow. And it

95
00:04:36,319 --> 00:04:38,600
was interesting because some of the students were like they

96
00:04:38,639 --> 00:04:42,079
had trouble agreeing to something they knew was blatantly false.

97
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:44,639
They'd be like, well, no, actually, and I'm like, no,

98
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,600
that person that that's correct, it's yes and yes. One

99
00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:50,360
of my favorite ones was, oh, you never guess who

100
00:04:50,439 --> 00:04:53,240
I saw at the coffee shop Brad Pitt. Oh, Brad Pitt,

101
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,439
the famous pope. He's my favorite pope. And then that

102
00:04:56,519 --> 00:04:58,160
led to like it did say it sort of back

103
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:58,519
and forth.

104
00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 1: Not only Brad Pitt, the my favorite pope.

105
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then there was Robert Downey Junior and someone

106
00:05:04,399 --> 00:05:06,600
was like, oh, he runs the kissing booth at the

107
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:09,920
fair or something, and I was like it's so fun.

108
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,519
And then that led to so much humor because everyone

109
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,120
was like, that's not right.

110
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,079
Speaker 1: Oh, I love that especially it's not just over and

111
00:05:17,079 --> 00:05:20,560
over again like this sportsball person from this other team

112
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,160
that they're not Actually that's yeah. Improv is great. That's

113
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,560
so impressive, And what a skill to build for acting

114
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,680
and improvisation and just life in general. To be able

115
00:05:28,759 --> 00:05:32,000
to be silly and yeah, let's go down this crazy

116
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,160
path of what if.

117
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: And it's a super pretentious thing I think to say,

118
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,079
but like improvisers give themselves the permission to be silly

119
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,879
and have fun. Not enough people do that in their

120
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:41,839
day to day life.

121
00:05:41,639 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: So exactly. I appreciate that about you for sure. Well,

122
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,040
moving on, I guess the theme for this season is

123
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,120
family traditions. Tyler. Did your story fit the theme?

124
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 2: I would say yes, yeah, so I would yeah, give

125
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,279
myself a check mark. It was a bit of a shoehorn,

126
00:05:57,759 --> 00:05:59,480
but I'm in it one look, there's.

127
00:05:59,319 --> 00:06:01,639
Speaker 1: A family in it. I assume by now people listening

128
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,879
to this interview have listened to the episode. I don't

129
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,000
think there's if answer butts about it. I think it

130
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,639
fits for sure. Your episode title was light Bulbs, would

131
00:06:11,639 --> 00:06:15,360
you care to read us your log line and your tagline.

132
00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 2: Shine bright for what you believe in Hugh, a young

133
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,639
incandescent light bulb balances his hopes and dreams with his

134
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,279
mother's expectations.

135
00:06:26,079 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: Oh beautiful. I love the announcer voice for it. Very nice.

136
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,079
Tyler's roles in making this episode include co founder of

137
00:06:33,199 --> 00:06:37,480
Lengthy Tangent, a voice actor, producer, writer, sound engineer and designer,

138
00:06:37,519 --> 00:06:40,839
and the director. Let's listen to a sample of your episode.

139
00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:46,399
Other bulbs just saw him as entertainment.

140
00:06:46,879 --> 00:06:49,199
Speaker 2: And you don't want to be entertainment.

141
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: I want to be illuminary, a guiding light for all bulbs. Well,

142
00:06:54,439 --> 00:06:58,240
I think you're pretty luminous, Hugh. It's only a matter

143
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:01,079
of time before a gang of those protest to steak

144
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,160
up behind me.

145
00:07:05,399 --> 00:07:08,959
Speaker 2: And you don't know where choreo? Who needs huge leotard

146
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,879
when I've got my own? And who says I don't

147
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:16,240
know your choreo? I wouldn't be much of a fan

148
00:07:16,319 --> 00:07:17,000
if I didn't.

149
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,879
Speaker 1: Well please wait.

150
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,319
Speaker 2: Wow, the sound design and writing and that was really good? Eh?

151
00:07:23,959 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: Oh incredible? And I the acting also Chef's kiss so great? Tyler.

152
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:33,079
In creating your episode, did you learn anything new and

153
00:07:33,279 --> 00:07:36,839
interesting since you've already done so much for the other

154
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,199
theme party podcasts.

155
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: Yes, I learned more about light bulbs what just likes, Yeah,

156
00:07:45,639 --> 00:07:50,399
sourcing sound effects, trying to co opt other sounds for

157
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,120
the sounds of light bulb related things, and even in

158
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:58,360
the writing of it, I created this sort of structures

159
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:01,160
hierarchy of light bulbs based on how long they burn.

160
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:06,639
And I didn't realize LED's friggin burn for a while. Yeah,

161
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,560
and they just don't take up much energy, which I

162
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,160
find fascinating, whereas incandescence or you know, shine bright and

163
00:08:12,519 --> 00:08:14,639
get out of here, lefast die young.

164
00:08:14,879 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: Did you happen to find out if all LEDs are

165
00:08:17,639 --> 00:08:20,680
pretty much created equal or is there a hierarchy within

166
00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:21,439
the hierarchy?

167
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,399
Speaker 2: That's a good question. There probably is that like the

168
00:08:24,759 --> 00:08:27,639
point one percent of the one percent, but I don't

169
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,839
know exactly, and I think part of it is also

170
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,159
the century bulb. I want to say, it's an incandescent

171
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,840
and it's been burning for over one hundred years. Wow,

172
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,480
There's only been I think two or three like short outages,

173
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:42,240
but that was out of the control. But they just

174
00:08:42,279 --> 00:08:45,200
like replace stuff in it while it continues to burn.

175
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,240
To my understanding, and that's not an led Yeah.

176
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,279
Speaker 1: Okay, so it's not like a true like this one bulb,

177
00:08:51,639 --> 00:08:53,240
like a bulb in your house has been going on

178
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,080
for that long like that kind of it sounds like

179
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:56,360
they're kind of cheated a little bit.

180
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I also don't want to. You know, I'm

181
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,600
really bad at pulling stuff out of my ass in

182
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,919
terms of like facts and whatnot. So whoever knows more

183
00:09:05,919 --> 00:09:07,559
about light bulbs will be listening to this being like,

184
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,519
this isn't about real light bulb facts. Sorry, guys, that's okay.

185
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: That's what improvisation is for. We've established that you can

186
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,919
pull things out of your ass that are not necessarily true,

187
00:09:17,159 --> 00:09:21,320
and that's okay. Yes, did you learn anything interesting about

188
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,639
podcasting at all from your roles?

189
00:09:23,919 --> 00:09:25,039
Speaker 2: Not necessarily?

190
00:09:25,279 --> 00:09:26,759
Speaker 1: And if not, that's vital I'll cut this out.

191
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,919
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I mean I've been involved in a number

192
00:09:29,919 --> 00:09:31,879
of podcasts in the past. I had my own podcasts

193
00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:33,080
for a short period.

194
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 1: You did.

195
00:09:33,919 --> 00:09:36,559
Speaker 2: I had two. I had one where it was it

196
00:09:36,639 --> 00:09:38,399
may still be on Spotify somewhere.

197
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:39,519
Speaker 1: Oh am, I just learning this.

198
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 2: I think I called it six degrees or six degrees

199
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,519
of separation. It was a fun concept, but it was

200
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,639
just time consuming and.

201
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna find this.

202
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,639
Speaker 2: I would press the random button on Wikipedia six different

203
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,960
times to get six pages, and then I would connect

204
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,639
each topic WHOA, and so it would be ridiculous and

205
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,639
crazy and silly, but also, I mean kind of makes sense.

206
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,080
And I did that in my parents' basemen. This would

207
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,519
have been like maybe six ish years ago. And then

208
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,440
I did a podcast with a roommate during COVID called

209
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,279
I Know Nothing, and we interviewed different folks to talk

210
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,440
about an interesting thing that they might have done. We

211
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,480
spoke to a comedian, we spoke to somebody who does

212
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,440
acro and silks and stuff. We spoke to a professional

213
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,240
karaoke singer. But this is all people in our network there.

214
00:10:27,519 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, a professional karaoke singer. Yeah, how does one make

215
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,080
money as a karaoke singer?

216
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 2: So it's a fine line. Whereas if you make X

217
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,120
amount of your income singing, you can't be involved in

218
00:10:39,159 --> 00:10:41,519
the karaoke process because like you're seeing as like a

219
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,440
ringer kind of thing. So it's people who don't sing professionally.

220
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,759
That's part of it, okay, And then you get judged

221
00:10:47,759 --> 00:10:49,879
based on the song you pick based on the performance,

222
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,600
like do you pick a song that's gonna play well

223
00:10:51,639 --> 00:10:53,039
in the room or do you pick like a popular

224
00:10:53,159 --> 00:10:55,759
radio song. You get judged based on like how you

225
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,960
dress as well. Maybe there's a fun costume element too.

226
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,879
And what was insane? My buddy, uh medium docs him Chris.

227
00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:07,159
He's also a voice actor, a very good voice actor.

228
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,320
And we had to record the podcast I think three times.

229
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,639
The first time his computer crashed. No, I think it

230
00:11:15,639 --> 00:11:18,200
was only two times. The first time his computer crashed

231
00:11:19,159 --> 00:11:22,879
and then the second time. He didn't wear headphones, so

232
00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:27,360
his mic picked up us talking through his computer speakers.

233
00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:31,080
Oh no, And I'm like, dude, your voice actor, come.

234
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: On, Chris, get it together.

235
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,159
Speaker 2: So we made it work. He was the only one

236
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,600
who had a professional setup and has sounded the worst

237
00:11:39,759 --> 00:11:42,919
of everybody else else. I love you, Chris Well.

238
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,759
Speaker 1: Lessons learned, Oh my gosh. Yeah, if you were to

239
00:11:45,799 --> 00:11:49,639
continue that podcast, would there be a dream career to

240
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,480
represent to interview somebody for.

241
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,759
Speaker 2: I would just kind of go down the occupational list

242
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,720
of stuff that truly in me, stuff that I never

243
00:12:00,759 --> 00:12:03,159
would have thought, or preferably jobs that I had never

244
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,480
heard of. Yeah, I feel like the default. Oh you know, doctor,

245
00:12:07,799 --> 00:12:12,879
you know, cop, teacher, whatever, But what makes a phlebotomis tick?

246
00:12:13,279 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: You know, just that raw vampire urge to be around

247
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,840
blood all the time. I guess apparently, Yeah makes sense

248
00:12:19,879 --> 00:12:22,519
to me for our listeners that might be interested in

249
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,159
making their own podcast. Do you have a software or

250
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,600
a workshop that you attended, or some equipment that you

251
00:12:27,639 --> 00:12:29,080
find to be the most useful.

252
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 2: No, yeah, I like my DOV choice is Reaper. I

253
00:12:36,799 --> 00:12:41,799
very much enjoy that. And then in terms of sound

254
00:12:41,799 --> 00:12:46,039
effects and stuff, that was an interesting experience. I have

255
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,720
a connection in my network Jeff Bremner. I want to

256
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,559
say Bremner. I got in touch with him about something

257
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,919
VEO related. I think he was involved in a podcast

258
00:12:57,919 --> 00:13:01,759
that I was interviewed on, and then he was impressed

259
00:13:01,759 --> 00:13:03,559
with my mic. Of course I'm not using the mic,

260
00:13:03,639 --> 00:13:07,320
but the nick's for sixteen. It's on my other set up.

261
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,399
But he's like, oh, you have a four sixteen.

262
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,919
Speaker 1: Sennheiser four sixteen Gang, Yes.

263
00:13:12,279 --> 00:13:17,879
Speaker 2: For sixteen t t for Tyler. But Jeff was like, oh,

264
00:13:17,879 --> 00:13:19,480
it's a great mic, and I said, yeah, I know

265
00:13:19,519 --> 00:13:22,440
a guy from Japan, you know, kind of sort of

266
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,840
fell off the truck, sort of situation, He's like, can

267
00:13:24,879 --> 00:13:26,879
you get me one? So I hooked him up. He

268
00:13:26,879 --> 00:13:30,159
felt like he owed me, so he gave me a

269
00:13:30,279 --> 00:13:32,360
link to like his I want to say, it's freeesound

270
00:13:32,399 --> 00:13:34,960
dot org account, and he's like, I put sound effects

271
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,080
on there all the time, Like, you're more than welcome

272
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,879
to use any of those. Wow, I used some of those,

273
00:13:39,919 --> 00:13:44,399
I think in this somewhere. And then having cool friends

274
00:13:44,399 --> 00:13:48,960
who do stuff, so all of the music is from

275
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,759
one of my best friends, Matt Ryman, who does just

276
00:13:51,799 --> 00:13:54,840
kind of music hobby music on the side, and he

277
00:13:54,919 --> 00:13:57,159
was more than happy to throw down some stuff based

278
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,759
on what I described. And then I think, I all, wow, right, yeah, that.

279
00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:04,039
Speaker 1: Is so cool. Yeah, that is. That's one thing about

280
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,080
voiceover and making podcasts that the people that you meet

281
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,639
in these industries and the way that you can incorporate

282
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,879
the relationships you have outside of it really make the

283
00:14:12,919 --> 00:14:17,000
experience so much more rich. And I don't know where

284
00:14:17,039 --> 00:14:19,159
I would be personally without all of the people that

285
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:20,080
I know through doing this.

286
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,639
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I agree. It's very much a found community

287
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,240
and everyone loves getting involved, however much or however little

288
00:14:27,279 --> 00:14:29,360
they're able to based on their bandwidth and their life

289
00:14:29,399 --> 00:14:32,440
and having an outlet like this, I think is really awesome.

290
00:14:32,679 --> 00:14:37,080
It's a bit different, I find for me because trying

291
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:38,879
to find the time during the day to work on this,

292
00:14:38,919 --> 00:14:40,960
because after hours, I'm like, I've been doing this sort

293
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,320
of thing all day, so that is a bit harder

294
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,120
for me. But then I hear stories of Lindsay being like,

295
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,399
I'm breastfeeding and you know, sound engineering, and I'm like,

296
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,600
I guess, so, I guess I should probably trive it.

297
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,159
Speaker 1: More anything for the job.

298
00:14:55,519 --> 00:14:56,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.

299
00:14:57,919 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: Relatable. Oh boy, Lindsay, if you're listening, we appreciate you

300
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,600
and all the work and time you put into making

301
00:15:04,799 --> 00:15:06,279
podcasts come to life. Thank you.

302
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:06,919
Speaker 2: Absolutely.

303
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,279
Speaker 1: Was there a podcast production role that you took on

304
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,720
for the first time for this episode, and if so,

305
00:15:12,799 --> 00:15:13,399
how did it go?

306
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 2: The closest thing might be directorial, But I think I've

307
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,279
done everything in every facet of the podcast that I

308
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,960
was involved in. I'd done a version of that prior.

309
00:15:25,519 --> 00:15:29,120
I equate the directorial sort of role to what I've

310
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:33,360
been doing for years in our discord, facilitating voiceover workouts

311
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:40,879
and giving feedback and whatnot. So maybe formally directing, but yeah,

312
00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:43,399
that's all I can think of I've written for years

313
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,879
and years. That was my original job and voiceovers copywriter

314
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,879
for in radio broadcasting, so that's not new. The sound

315
00:15:49,919 --> 00:15:52,720
design isn't new for me. Maybe more on this scale

316
00:15:52,799 --> 00:15:55,240
is a bit newer, But for the most part, yeah,

317
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,120
it's all. I've done it, most of it before.

318
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,759
Speaker 1: Very cool. As far as how did it go, did

319
00:15:59,799 --> 00:16:04,960
you find anything with directing through Zoom to be Since

320
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,240
you also do the improv stuff in person and you're

321
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:11,120
around other actors in person unlike some of us, do

322
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,080
you find it more challenging to do direction and acting

323
00:16:15,159 --> 00:16:18,960
through Zoom versus in person or is it just different

324
00:16:19,399 --> 00:16:20,840
and easier in other ways.

325
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 2: I like the convenience of Zoom, and I like the

326
00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:25,360
fact that you know it can connect people all over

327
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,600
and I don't think any of us really were in

328
00:16:27,639 --> 00:16:31,440
the same city, let alone state, let alone province for

329
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,639
recording this stuff. Actually that's we have a bunch of

330
00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:39,559
New Yorkers. But yeah, so I prefer convenience from Zoom

331
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,279
for that fact. But a couple of weeks ago, I

332
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,440
did an in person podcast, well more of an audio play,

333
00:16:46,679 --> 00:16:48,879
and that was really cool getting to perform in the

334
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,639
room with people and kind of pick up the vibes,

335
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,279
you know, Oh it's feeling tense in here, or it's

336
00:16:54,279 --> 00:16:57,039
feeling really fun and silly. I'm gonna play more. So

337
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,360
I think they each have their own, you know, strengths

338
00:16:59,399 --> 00:17:04,319
and merits. But yeah, I will say too that one

339
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:09,000
thing that I struggled with a little bit was because

340
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,480
I wrote it and I directed it. This is something

341
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,839
that I feel like I'm not alone with other creators

342
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:18,119
who do the same sort of thing, writing something and

343
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,160
being like, well, duh, it means this, yeah, and then

344
00:17:21,279 --> 00:17:22,400
the actor being like so.

345
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: I thought or that line should sound like this.

346
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, or the actor being like, well I didn't get that,

347
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,359
and I'm like, oh crap. I guess they don't know

348
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,079
that this is happening unless an actor explicitly says it

349
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,200
or the scene direction is very clear, so writing you know,

350
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,720
so it's very very clear what's going on in the scene,

351
00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:42,960
or letting the sound design kind of play that out

352
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,759
so then if it wasn't picked up during the recording,

353
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,559
trying to sound design something that makes it clear what's happening.

354
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And as I said with Lindsay, just doing

355
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,599
that with sound design without having a picture to go

356
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,599
along with it, or a video to go along with it,

357
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,720
or something. Finding the very specific sound that sounds not

358
00:18:01,759 --> 00:18:03,640
only like the thing you're trying to make it sound like,

359
00:18:03,839 --> 00:18:05,640
but also like it's in the space that you're trying

360
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:10,160
to recreate is so tedious pirst of all to comb

361
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,319
through the hours and hours and hours of sound library

362
00:18:13,319 --> 00:18:15,880
that are out there. I'm basically saying the same thing

363
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:16,400
that you just said.

364
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:21,039
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, but no, no need to apologize. I will

365
00:18:21,079 --> 00:18:23,559
say one thing that surprised me, and I'm sure we

366
00:18:23,599 --> 00:18:26,039
could put like an I will say counter in the

367
00:18:26,039 --> 00:18:28,680
corner of this video or podcast. I've said that at

368
00:18:28,759 --> 00:18:30,720
least half a dozen times now, and I'm no, I'm

369
00:18:30,759 --> 00:18:34,240
refraining from saying it for this next part. Finding out

370
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,480
how many sound effects of the actual thing doing the

371
00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:42,200
thing doesn't sound like the thing doing the thing. Mm hmm,

372
00:18:42,839 --> 00:18:45,519
Like I'm like, oh, I'll just get, you know, two

373
00:18:45,519 --> 00:18:49,000
pieces of wood and I'll muck them together, like that's

374
00:18:49,039 --> 00:18:52,240
the sound of two pieces of No it's not yep, right,

375
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,799
Or oh, this door doesn't sound like a door, or yeah,

376
00:18:55,839 --> 00:18:58,039
this piece of metal sounds not like a piece of metal.

377
00:18:58,119 --> 00:18:59,119
So that was interesting.

378
00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:04,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're specifically looking for different ways to come up

379
00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:09,400
with sound of fabric interacting with an object. And there

380
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,160
are so many different ways that fabric can sound. And

381
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,039
if you have a specific object that they need to

382
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,319
interact with, like say like a cup or something, what's

383
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:18,960
a cup made out of? Does a cup have any

384
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,319
resonance to it? Once? Yeah, it's lots of layers and

385
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,880
trying to get it sound just right. You can waste

386
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,200
so much time trying to find the exact sound and

387
00:19:28,279 --> 00:19:29,559
still never find it.

388
00:19:29,799 --> 00:19:34,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that doesn't sound like volue or sound that sounds

389
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:35,559
like a polybleb.

390
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:40,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, how rude. While moving on to party questions, Tyler,

391
00:19:40,319 --> 00:19:42,720
could you briefly describe a party that you've been to

392
00:19:42,839 --> 00:19:44,559
that relates to the season's theme.

393
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was recently at a diaper party for a

394
00:19:49,519 --> 00:19:53,640
friend and improv buddy fifty percent of two guys with Fitbits.

395
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,319
We perform as a duo from time to time and

396
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:01,160
will be performing in the Toronto World's Biggest Improv tournament

397
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:02,880
in early twenty twenty six.

398
00:20:04,519 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, excellent, Everybody check them out. Tyler is very funny.

399
00:20:07,759 --> 00:20:09,880
I don't know his other half, but Tyler is very funny.

400
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,400
So you should go and seek out their content wherever

401
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:12,839
you can.

402
00:20:12,759 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 2: Thank you very much, of course. And so he's expecting

403
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,920
a child with his partner, and so it was a

404
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,240
diaper party, which I think is a new er thing

405
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,480
because it used to be, you know, baby showers, maybe

406
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,039
the husband or the dad would get taken out for

407
00:20:28,039 --> 00:20:30,160
a couple of beers. So a diaper party is more

408
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,119
inclusive for everybody can come and hang out. And I

409
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,519
think it connects to the family tradition section because of

410
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,559
the fact that we were celebrating family.

411
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, and literally making a family exactly.

412
00:20:42,039 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 2: There was a diaper hole game, which sounds wrong, but

413
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,119
it was cornhole with like rolled up diapers as bean bags.

414
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:50,799
Speaker 1: Oh that's funny, super ingenius.

415
00:20:50,839 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 2: And then there were nine pictures. Gareth has a brother,

416
00:20:54,599 --> 00:20:59,480
and then the mom, Bessie, has four sisters, so there

417
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,519
were nine total baby pictures on the table and it's

418
00:21:02,559 --> 00:21:04,960
like you had to identify who was who, and they

419
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,039
threw in a couple of randos, and of course Gareth

420
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,039
was like the one with the ridiculous combover that nobody

421
00:21:11,079 --> 00:21:12,039
thought it was him.

422
00:21:12,279 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: Really, Oh, that's so funny.

423
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then they also they asked you to fill

424
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,720
in a thing, what do you think the birth date

425
00:21:18,839 --> 00:21:21,559
will be because they had like an estimate, and then

426
00:21:21,599 --> 00:21:23,359
what do you think the weight would be of the baby?

427
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,599
So if you guess right, you went a prize.

428
00:21:25,599 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: So exciting. Do they have like a name and everything

429
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:29,680
picked out? I guess we don't have to docks the

430
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:30,839
baby on the podcast, but.

431
00:21:31,039 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if they have a name. Okay, I

432
00:21:33,319 --> 00:21:36,759
was pushing really hard for Tyler, but probably not.

433
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: I'll probably cut this out of the podcast. But I

434
00:21:39,839 --> 00:21:45,759
recently had my debit card information used. Somebody was spending

435
00:21:45,759 --> 00:21:48,119
my money and I had to deal with a banker

436
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,000
named Tyler, and I first of all thought of you,

437
00:21:51,039 --> 00:21:53,599
but then I was also like a banker named Tyler.

438
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,240
That just feels straight.

439
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like I'm on that, like the top

440
00:21:58,839 --> 00:22:01,960
end age wise of Tyler's. I feel like I've never

441
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,039
met a Tyler older than me. All the Tylers are younger.

442
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,000
But that's just my thought. Interesting now I have to

443
00:22:07,039 --> 00:22:09,000
think it's a bunch of gen Z Tyler's going around.

444
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, huh, I guess I can't think if I know

445
00:22:11,559 --> 00:22:13,920
any Tyler's my age or older.

446
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you are quite older than me, so

447
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:16,599
that's possible.

448
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 1: Yep.

449
00:22:18,839 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 2: Keep it.

450
00:22:19,599 --> 00:22:23,319
Speaker 1: That's okay. I'm not as shamed of my age. That's fine.

451
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,839
Did anybody at the party discuss traditional baby shower games?

452
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,119
Because my understanding is diaper parties are popping up as

453
00:22:31,799 --> 00:22:35,839
more popular because they are generally accepted to be co ed,

454
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,160
and then they're moving away from kind of the we're

455
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,759
going to sit and have cucumber sandwiches and drink tea

456
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,039
and sniff chocolates in a diaper as if it's poop.

457
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 2: Whoa, you get into some weird stuff.

458
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're supposed to identify the chocolate bar, the melted

459
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,359
chocolate bar inside of a diaper, and it's supposed to

460
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,599
be really funny, like you're figuring out what the poop is.

461
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 2: So I am, I'm so somewhat curious about that. But yeah,

462
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,720
so like traditional baby shower stuff, is that your question?

463
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I guess at the party where people talking

464
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,240
about traditional baby showers and how how glad or not

465
00:23:13,279 --> 00:23:14,920
glad they are of people moving away from them.

466
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:19,559
Speaker 2: No, but I almost wonder if it's because just as

467
00:23:19,559 --> 00:23:22,119
a society, we're having kids at older ages now. So

468
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,799
I don't know that they're a couple of years older.

469
00:23:24,839 --> 00:23:28,319
I think their early forties, okay, and so maybe a

470
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,640
decade older or so. But of the people that I

471
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,160
knew that were there, I was probably one of the

472
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,200
younger ones, but they It also didn't seem to be

473
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:35,960
a group of people that went to a lot of

474
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,279
baby showers or diaper party.

475
00:23:37,319 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: Oh interesting.

476
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 2: So yeah, when I think baby shower, I think, yeah,

477
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,039
like maybe tiara and a veil and a sash, and

478
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,440
it's in somebody's very pristine living room and it's not

479
00:23:49,559 --> 00:23:52,160
the living room of the mom. And then yeah, you

480
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,319
just dote on the person and maybe there's some yeah,

481
00:23:54,519 --> 00:23:57,440
inappropriate stuff with diapers and chocolate and whatever else.

482
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,279
Speaker 1: What is the most memorable party that you've been too?

483
00:24:00,839 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 2: So I lived in you can cut this down for

484
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,960
time too if you want. I lived in Australia for

485
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,799
two years and I moved to Melbourne, Australia, and there

486
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,440
was a Facebook group this is ten ish years ago,

487
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,920
that connected backpackers who are looking for places to stay

488
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,119
and you know, find sharehouses whatever. There was a post

489
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,680
from this Japanese woman and she was like, hey, like

490
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,960
I'm new to the city, blah blah blah, And so

491
00:24:26,039 --> 00:24:27,920
I liked it and I commented on it for visibility.

492
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,079
I'm like, I'm just going through and being friendly and

493
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,960
she DMS me and she's like, Hi, you seem nice.

494
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:36,720
I would be happy to share a space with. And

495
00:24:36,759 --> 00:24:40,599
I'm like stranger danger dude, Like I just liked your post.

496
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:45,319
What are you doing? And that was foreshadowing because she

497
00:24:45,759 --> 00:24:49,480
had she's like a quaka, just like walking up to predators,

498
00:24:49,759 --> 00:24:54,920
just being like, oh, friends, you'll find Shane's friends. So anyways,

499
00:24:55,319 --> 00:24:57,920
this is not going to work out because she went

500
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,680
to a sharehouse h and then she's like, oh, Tyler,

501
00:25:01,799 --> 00:25:04,559
this place is great, Like come check it out with me.

502
00:25:05,079 --> 00:25:09,240
It's awesome, like super friendly. There's free food, and I

503
00:25:09,279 --> 00:25:12,960
was like okay. So we go there and it's this

504
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:16,319
older guy. He insists on hugging us, and I'm like,

505
00:25:16,319 --> 00:25:19,359
this is a weird start. He's showing us around. There's

506
00:25:19,759 --> 00:25:22,160
the bedrooms are pretty big, but they're also divided by

507
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,759
curtains to make more space for more people. I'm like,

508
00:25:24,799 --> 00:25:27,920
I don't love that there was one inside bathroom. In Australia,

509
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,039
it's very common to have an outside bathroom like an outhouse,

510
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,799
just for space wise. Okay, so he's saying that there

511
00:25:32,799 --> 00:25:35,519
were six or seven people there. They had chickens and

512
00:25:35,599 --> 00:25:39,000
ducks outside. He was contemplating making a hot tub and

513
00:25:39,079 --> 00:25:42,240
like having people help out, and then I think at

514
00:25:42,279 --> 00:25:45,799
one point something ran across the floor. He insisted that

515
00:25:45,839 --> 00:25:49,079
we drink this like very fresh water that he had

516
00:25:49,079 --> 00:25:51,559
in a jug that was sparkling mineral water, but it

517
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,279
was also from a mountain stream. I'm like, that's fishy,

518
00:25:54,599 --> 00:25:54,759
you know.

519
00:25:55,079 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: Can we pause for a second. You said something ran

520
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,559
across the floor. Are we talking like a small mammal

521
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,599
or an insect or what do we? A snake?

522
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,319
Speaker 2: What do we? I guess they don't think it was

523
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,400
a small mammal. It might have been like a mouse

524
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,480
or a rat. I'm not sure. Yeah, And I'm like

525
00:26:09,759 --> 00:26:14,319
I'm looking over my friend and she's like like thumbs

526
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,599
up and I'm smiling, and I'm like, are you dumb?

527
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,839
Like this is terrible? And then it was coming to

528
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,200
an end, and he was like any other questions. I'm like, oh,

529
00:26:23,279 --> 00:26:25,680
oh yeah. In my head, I'm like, there's no way

530
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,200
I'm living here. But also I was like, so moy

531
00:26:28,319 --> 00:26:31,200
said something about free food and he goes, oh, yeah,

532
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,200
I'm a freagan. I packedic freaganism and I'm like, what

533
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,559
is that and he says, you know, once every few days,

534
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,799
once every week, me and a couple of housemates go

535
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,880
behind like the Woolworths down the street and we just

536
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,119
see what we can find in the dumpster.

537
00:26:44,279 --> 00:26:46,079
Speaker 1: Ah.

538
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,519
Speaker 2: And I was like, thank you so much, goodbye, listen

539
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,480
so and pivoting. So this is this is the person

540
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,240
that I'm dealing with. Somebody who thought this was an

541
00:26:55,279 --> 00:26:58,440
okay situation prior to me coming to kind of see.

542
00:26:59,039 --> 00:27:01,200
She messages me a couple days later and she goes,

543
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,880
I met this guy on Tinder. He invited me to

544
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,920
his house party and I was like, huh. She's like

545
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,480
I want to go, and I'm like, have fun. I

546
00:27:09,519 --> 00:27:12,440
fear for your safety, like I will come along. And

547
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,599
so this was like an hour north of Melbourne. This

548
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,319
was like in the sticks kind of. She picked me up,

549
00:27:18,319 --> 00:27:20,359
like in the city. We drove up there and we

550
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,599
go to this house and it's like kind of white,

551
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:28,680
trashy sort of vibes, and he's so excited to see her,

552
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,240
and I'm like, this is really weird. I find a

553
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,680
beer pong table, so I'm chat with the people there.

554
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,680
She's chatting off with him and they're talking about Pakistan's

555
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,640
nuclear arsenal, and I'm like, this is not party conversation.

556
00:27:42,039 --> 00:27:43,319
Speaker 1: What kind of party is it?

557
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,559
Speaker 2: And I'm also like looking at the house, I'm like this,

558
00:27:46,759 --> 00:27:49,160
I wasn't expecting to talk about geopolitical stuff here.

559
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

560
00:27:50,039 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 2: At one point, apparently she accidentally walked into the quote

561
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,119
unquote sex room because there are people just like sorry, yeah,

562
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,480
there are people just like going. And then they were like, oh,

563
00:27:57,559 --> 00:27:59,599
so sorry about that, like close the door on your

564
00:27:59,599 --> 00:28:04,039
way out. And then she had, you know, smoked some

565
00:28:04,039 --> 00:28:06,519
weed with them and stuff, and I was like, look,

566
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,599
the trains are stopping soon. I need to hop on

567
00:28:09,599 --> 00:28:12,119
a train to get home. Are you okay to stay here?

568
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,640
And she's like yeah, it's fine, I'm fine. I'm totally fine.

569
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,599
I'm like, you're sure. She's a grown woman, right, huh?

570
00:28:17,599 --> 00:28:19,519
And I met her a week and a half ago,

571
00:28:19,599 --> 00:28:23,200
so I'm like, huh, okay, I'm leaving, this is your

572
00:28:23,279 --> 00:28:25,599
life and she's like yeah, if I'm staying here. Fast

573
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,640
forward now she's married with a kid so to an

574
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,559
Australian guy. So I guess she figured something out, but

575
00:28:30,599 --> 00:28:31,440
it wasn't the same guy.

576
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 1: Lots to unpack here but yeah, that.

577
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 2: Was an interesting party.

578
00:28:34,519 --> 00:28:38,039
Speaker 1: Lots to unpack here. Yeah, why did you continue talking

579
00:28:38,079 --> 00:28:38,440
to her?

580
00:28:38,799 --> 00:28:40,000
Speaker 2: The entertainment factor?

581
00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:44,039
Speaker 1: I guess how would we have these stories if you

582
00:28:44,319 --> 00:28:47,920
had not continued to answer her. Yeah, I don't even

583
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,680
know what to say, to be honest with you, because

584
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,480
there's a lot that happened in that one night, let

585
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,960
alone the entire situation. So you are still in touch

586
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:58,519
with her.

587
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,319
Speaker 2: I mean, I see stuff. I don't know that I've

588
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,720
spoken to her in years, but like the pictures of

589
00:29:05,759 --> 00:29:07,759
her and her kid like pop up from time to time.

590
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,119
After I left Australia. There was the odd hey, how's

591
00:29:10,119 --> 00:29:15,880
it going, But just the cultural differences coming from Japan

592
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,599
in your like early mid thirties to Australia, it's like

593
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:23,200
a wild place. And she's just like, oh, you're offering

594
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,839
me drugs for free? What a bargain? Like that's the

595
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,559
sort of vibe that I was getting. I'm like, lady,

596
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,440
have some sort of discernment. Yeah, be wary.

597
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,960
Speaker 1: She's still alive though, that is the important takeaway I think,

598
00:29:37,559 --> 00:29:38,480
and clearly doing it.

599
00:29:38,519 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 2: And she's responsible for the growth and nourishment of a child.

600
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 1: Imagine having her as a mother in law someday, just

601
00:29:47,079 --> 00:29:50,480
like piecing out bits and pieces of her life from

602
00:29:50,519 --> 00:29:52,839
stories that she shares. I wonder if she talks about

603
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:54,720
any of that stuff, or if she's even aware that

604
00:29:54,759 --> 00:29:56,359
it is worth being talked about. You know.

605
00:29:56,599 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's what it comes down to. She's

606
00:29:58,279 --> 00:30:01,359
just like, well that was Saturday. Yeah, what's gonna happen Sunday.

607
00:30:04,599 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 1: I'm so boring and compared to some people, I'd rather

608
00:30:07,319 --> 00:30:07,880
be boring.

609
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 2: And alive than fun and death.

610
00:30:09,039 --> 00:30:11,079
Speaker 1: That is very true, man. I want to hear more

611
00:30:11,119 --> 00:30:14,240
about your travels and your experiences with your parties. Are

612
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,480
there any other parties from your travels to other countries

613
00:30:17,559 --> 00:30:20,359
that are good story fodder for the podcast.

614
00:30:20,519 --> 00:30:23,359
Speaker 2: When I lived in Thailand, I lived in like semi rural,

615
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:28,759
rural Thailand, And there was one time where I was

616
00:30:28,839 --> 00:30:32,000
walking to like it was like a community and there

617
00:30:32,039 --> 00:30:34,359
were small houses and whatnot. And I lived in a

618
00:30:34,359 --> 00:30:37,599
house and I was taking my laundry to the laundry

619
00:30:37,599 --> 00:30:39,200
mat down the street and it was like ten in

620
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,640
the morning maybe, and these guys were all outside drinking

621
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,640
and I'm like cool, and they're like, come drink, come drink.

622
00:30:46,279 --> 00:30:48,279
I was like, I'm doing the laundry. I waited for it.

623
00:30:48,279 --> 00:30:50,079
On the way back, they're like, come drink. I'm like,

624
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,559
let me put the laundry away first. And these guys

625
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,960
have been drinking since the night before. Guys were already

626
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,799
passed out at like ten thirty in the morning.

627
00:30:56,839 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: Oh you're not gonna start drinking at ten o'clock in

628
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,640
the morning, obviously, Tyler.

629
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 2: That's true. And then my friend came who was like

630
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,720
my neighbor also from Canada. It just so happened that

631
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,319
we got placed in the same town. So we're drinking

632
00:31:10,319 --> 00:31:12,640
with them, and then one guy's like, you guys like karaoke, Like,

633
00:31:12,839 --> 00:31:15,240
we'll go to this place that I know that has karaoke,

634
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,200
and we're like okay. We get in the car, and

635
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,559
that was an interesting experience. He had like a ball

636
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:25,359
of sticky rice on the dashboard. That sounds like a

637
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,000
racist stereotype. It actually like he had a ball of

638
00:31:28,039 --> 00:31:31,000
sticky rice on the dashboard. That's not a euphemism for anything.

639
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,440
Just rolling around and he was like passing people's kind

640
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,079
of country roads. We get to this place and it's

641
00:31:38,119 --> 00:31:40,839
like a pretty nice big house on like some property,

642
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,880
and my friend and I were looking at each other like,

643
00:31:44,079 --> 00:31:48,160
there's no karaoke here. What happened? There's no carryo And

644
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,880
they brought food out and in that corner of the world,

645
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,799
it's like, oh, you're white. This is cool. I'll have

646
00:31:53,839 --> 00:31:55,920
a story to tell my friends if I hang out

647
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,519
with a white person. That was the vibes. That was

648
00:31:58,559 --> 00:32:01,000
a wild party. But that leads to one of my

649
00:32:01,079 --> 00:32:03,599
co teachers. After I left, got married, and so I

650
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:04,839
went back for the wedding and I was in the

651
00:32:04,839 --> 00:32:07,279
wedding party. So I was in like an authentic tie

652
00:32:08,079 --> 00:32:09,720
wedding experience and that was cool.

653
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:10,319
Speaker 1: Wow.

654
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 2: And so being in the wedding party, you know, you're

655
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,839
part of the festivities. They walked down the street, they

656
00:32:16,279 --> 00:32:20,319
went to the bride's parents' house and the groom was like,

657
00:32:20,559 --> 00:32:23,720
I'm coming in to get your honey in Thai and

658
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,279
he has to stop at each of the bridesmaids and say,

659
00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:29,720
you know, what can I do for you to be

660
00:32:29,799 --> 00:32:31,400
allowed to pass to go to the next person to

661
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,759
get into the house to get my bride. And someone's like,

662
00:32:33,799 --> 00:32:35,519
you know, do ten push ups or give me two

663
00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:40,440
hundred butt or whatever. And then we went inside and

664
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:44,160
then people were giving the groomsman money nat one older

665
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,759
Thaie woman was like super friendly, like oh, like a

666
00:32:47,039 --> 00:32:50,160
like smiling and holding my arm and stuff saying something.

667
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,960
And a friend was like, she's offering her granddaughter and

668
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,960
I'm like no, And so that was a cool experience,

669
00:32:58,039 --> 00:32:59,160
just being a part of the wedding. And then of

670
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,839
course there was carryoak yet the reception. And I was

671
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,000
also invited to another wedding that I didn't go to

672
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,000
because I didn't know the person. They were just a

673
00:33:07,039 --> 00:33:09,039
teacher and they invited all the teachers at the school.

674
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: Oh.

675
00:33:09,759 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 2: And in Tai they have Thai names and they have

676
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,160
Anglicized names, but they usually pick their anglicized names. So

677
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,720
I have, I think, on my court board outside, I

678
00:33:19,759 --> 00:33:23,599
have the wedding invitation and it says the name of

679
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,880
the couple, the bride and groom. Their names were Nut

680
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,599
and top Oh because they chose those names.

681
00:33:28,799 --> 00:33:31,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, did you at I'll ask them why they chose

682
00:33:31,119 --> 00:33:32,039
those names or did they just.

683
00:33:32,079 --> 00:33:34,759
Speaker 2: Like I never spoke to them because we didn't end

684
00:33:34,799 --> 00:33:36,319
up going to the wedding because we didn't have rides

685
00:33:36,359 --> 00:33:38,720
and it was like a early on a Saturday morning

686
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:40,359
and we were just too knackered from the week.

687
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 1: Sure, Wow. Well, it was a long journey to get here,

688
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,599
but we're at the end of the episode. Tyler, it's

689
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,720
been a pleasure chatting with you before we go. Could

690
00:33:49,759 --> 00:33:52,640
you please tell the people what you're promoting or celebrating

691
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:53,119
right now.

692
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 2: I'm promoting work life balance.

693
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:58,119
Speaker 1: I'd love that for you.

694
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,079
Speaker 2: Yeah. Sometimes I take too much advantage of the work

695
00:34:02,119 --> 00:34:04,880
life balance and the life part versus the work part.

696
00:34:05,279 --> 00:34:07,680
But yeah, it takes some time to enjoy things that

697
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,960
you like in life. Not everything's work work work. Don't

698
00:34:11,039 --> 00:34:13,360
live to work, work to live. I think that's the

699
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:17,039
right order of operations for that. And then yeah, listen

700
00:34:17,079 --> 00:34:19,159
to Theme Party, listen to the Collection of Wire Graves,

701
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:21,800
listen to the first season at Peculiar Radio. Because we're

702
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,679
working on season two. I've just dated this episode as

703
00:34:24,679 --> 00:34:29,039
well by saying that that's okay, and follow me on

704
00:34:29,159 --> 00:34:33,880
Instagram at Tyler hirtschuk Vo. Watch the Disney Zombie movies

705
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,920
only Zombies two and Zombies three. Those are the only

706
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:37,880
ones I'm in. They did not fly me to New

707
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,400
Zealand to be in Zombies four. I don't think Shrimpy

708
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:45,280
was in Zombies one. Also a Shrimpy connection here Moretta

709
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:50,000
is the wonderful creator of my shrimpy plush that is

710
00:34:50,079 --> 00:34:54,280
on my bookcase outside exquisitely made.

711
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: Yes, I needle felt it as shrimpy for Tyler did.

712
00:34:57,639 --> 00:34:59,800
Speaker 2: Yes, it was beautiful. So I'm going to be on

713
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:04,960
this podcast. We already recorded it, but I voice a

714
00:35:05,079 --> 00:35:08,599
prisoner with two other improvisers interviewing me, and it gets

715
00:35:08,639 --> 00:35:14,880
very silly and fun, and it's called Ravantha's Most Dangerous Prisoners.

716
00:35:13,599 --> 00:35:14,639
Speaker 1: Most Dangerous Prisoners.

717
00:35:14,679 --> 00:35:20,519
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I don't know when the episode's coming out,

718
00:35:20,599 --> 00:35:24,800
but they were very interested to see me playing a

719
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:29,000
inanimate object turned animate. Uh. I think I said I

720
00:35:29,039 --> 00:35:31,000
was a bar rag and I was bitten by like

721
00:35:31,039 --> 00:35:36,719
an alcohol like somebody with alcoholics. What?

722
00:35:37,519 --> 00:35:40,559
Speaker 1: Okay? First of all, what led to making that choice?

723
00:35:40,599 --> 00:35:44,840
And also what powers does a drunk imbue into a

724
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,119
bar rag when they when they bite the bar rag?

725
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 2: Just life, it seems, okay, I have an affinity for

726
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:57,639
inanimate objects, hence writing a whole episode about light bulbs. Sure, yeah,

727
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,519
I think I think I was just a bar rag

728
00:35:59,559 --> 00:36:02,320
and I spoke like this. I didn't have any powers. Oh,

729
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,000
I could just I just sopped stuff up, you know,

730
00:36:05,119 --> 00:36:07,519
you spell something. I just sopped it up. Wow, and

731
00:36:07,519 --> 00:36:10,360
I rang it. Oh. And so what happened was I

732
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:14,360
was in jail because I got caught a bootlegging because

733
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,840
I was purposefully causing patrons to drop their alcohol and

734
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:19,639
I would stop it up and I would ring it up,

735
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,880
ring it out over a barrel, and then I would

736
00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,800
sell just the dregs to make money.

737
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 1: At the very least, it is very ingenious.

738
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 2: It was wild.

739
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: Speaking of yes, Anding, holy cow, good job. I really

740
00:36:36,559 --> 00:36:40,159
like your promoting of work life balance. Is there a

741
00:36:40,199 --> 00:36:43,360
reason in particular that you recently have been focusing more

742
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,760
on working to live rather than living to work.

743
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,599
Speaker 2: I think it's kind of more cause and effect the

744
00:36:48,639 --> 00:36:51,840
work that I've been getting in. Earlier in my career

745
00:36:52,199 --> 00:36:55,559
as a voiceover artist and voice actor, I was auditioning

746
00:36:55,599 --> 00:36:58,159
a ton, you know, fifteen hundred times a year. Maybe

747
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,639
I've cut that in half now. And because I'm very

748
00:37:01,679 --> 00:37:03,599
fortunate and that I have repeat clients and I have

749
00:37:03,639 --> 00:37:06,079
work coming to me, I'm not as focused on bringing

750
00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:10,159
in more clients. And because that's so much of being

751
00:37:10,159 --> 00:37:13,119
a voice actor is auditioning and you know, marketing and

752
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:17,199
finding leads and stuff. Yeah, I've just kind of reassessed

753
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,239
what I need to do to continue to make money,

754
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,800
and the fact that I'm teaching, you know, a few

755
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,599
times a week as well as helpful. I'm narrating more

756
00:37:25,639 --> 00:37:29,039
audiobooks now so and we just recently moved at the

757
00:37:29,039 --> 00:37:31,280
beginning of the summer, so there's more stuff to do

758
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:32,239
around the house as well.

759
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 1: I will add on to your promo that Tyler is

760
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,760
the t in LTM. So if you happen to stumble

761
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:43,119
across LTM and you're interested in participating in Tyler's a

762
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:47,119
voiceover workout, or if workshops come up, or if you

763
00:37:47,119 --> 00:37:50,679
have any questions about voiceover or setting up a booth

764
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:56,159
or equipment or software, that Discord server is the place

765
00:37:56,199 --> 00:37:57,679
to go. I would say yes.

766
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,280
Speaker 2: And if you have any VO questions that you want answered,

767
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,320
I mean the discord is place one. I'm happy to

768
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,360
also chat about that too. I usually give everybody at

769
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,400
least fifteen minutes on a zoom call to talk about voiceover.

770
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,119
I find people on Reddit all the time, and some

771
00:38:14,159 --> 00:38:16,559
of those have turned into students that I've been coaching

772
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,920
on a semi regular basis. And so if you're looking

773
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,000
to find out more about VO you want to get coached.

774
00:38:22,039 --> 00:38:24,440
You want to chat and whatever, hit me up.

775
00:38:24,679 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: Yay yay. I will also add this podcast is not

776
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,519
sponsored by Zoom. Use whatever video chat service you prefer.

777
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,440
That That is just common parlance. I feel so just

778
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,559
wanted to point that out anyway.

779
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 2: Recording in progress.

780
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 1: Oh no, Tyler, where can people find.

781
00:38:43,039 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 2: You outside of Toronto? So Tyler Hurtchuck vo on Instagram?

782
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:55,280
H y r c Chuk at my website, Tyler Hurchuck

783
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,920
dot ca on Reddit. I will not dox myself, but

784
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,400
it's pretty easy to figure out who I am if

785
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,840
you go through the voice acting subroughdit for a little bit, you'll, yeah,

786
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,920
you'll figure it out. Outside of that, I don't really

787
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,400
oh on LinkedIn, Tyler Hurtchuk. But outside of that, I

788
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,880
don't really do any other social media's IMDb, but that's

789
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:17,000
pretty pretty bland.

790
00:39:17,079 --> 00:39:19,559
Speaker 1: Also, you're not really responding to people through IMDb.

791
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 2: So no, But if you want to hire me for something,

792
00:39:22,159 --> 00:39:22,679
go right a.

793
00:39:22,679 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 1: Hey, hire Tyler.

794
00:39:25,079 --> 00:39:25,760
Speaker 2: Just don't scam me.

795
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:32,519
Speaker 1: Don't oh no, podcast, don't get scammed everybody. It's sad.

796
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:34,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

797
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,639
Speaker 1: Well that just leads me to thank Tyler for coming

798
00:39:36,639 --> 00:39:39,159
