Cruising in Central Park
00:04:55
► 00:00:02
What a beautiful evening.
► 00:00:04
It is beautiful.
► 00:00:05
It is evening too.
► 00:00:07
You know, it is, it's darker earlier.
► 00:00:12
Uh-huh.
► 00:00:12
I'm thinking and it's better for me.
► 00:00:15
No, you're not doing that right now.
► 00:00:16
No, I'm not doing it.
► 00:00:17
First of all, yeah.
► 00:00:18
I'm not doing that right now, but you don't even know who that was.
► 00:00:21
I do know who that was.
► 00:00:22
That wasn't him.
► 00:00:23
It was him.
► 00:00:23
That was the gargoyle.
► 00:00:24
Okay, well, oh, hello, cute little dog.
► 00:00:28
You think that when you do that voice, there are somehow like five different characters attached to it, but it's all the same character.
► 00:00:35
It's all the same voice.
► 00:00:37
And what is that, Liz?
► 00:00:38
That's Coindexter's voice.
► 00:00:39
Uh-huh.
► 00:00:40
What religion did you tell me you thought Coindexter was earlier before we started reporting?
► 00:00:45
I don't know what you're talking about.
► 00:00:47
What?
► 00:00:47
that's cool there's only the I said he was a was a Buddhist was Jehovah's Witness.
► 00:00:52
Was it Taoist?
► 00:00:53
What happened to Jehovah's Witnesses?
► 00:00:55
Are they still around?
► 00:00:56
Yeah, they're still around.
► 00:00:58
Yeah, yes.
► 00:00:59
Hello, everyone.
► 00:01:00
Hello.
► 00:01:01
My name is Liz.
► 00:01:02
My name is Brace, and we are joined here by the man who is giving me a piggyback ride on his shoulders.
► 00:01:08
That would be producer and my paramour, Young Chom, Steve.
► 00:01:15
He and I are cruising in Central Park right now.
► 00:01:18
Oh, you and I are cruising in Central Park.
► 00:01:20
Well, no, we're...
► 00:01:21
Oh, you mean that...
► 00:01:22
Yeah, we're okay.
► 00:01:24
Yeah We're here with you, but you're not doing what we're doing, just to make that clear.
► 00:01:29
This is a new kind of thing for us.
► 00:01:31
Yeah, in case you can't tell by the ambient noise, by the way, which I have no idea how much is getting picked up, we are in Central Park.
► 00:01:40
Yeah, big public space.
► 00:01:41
A lot of people.
► 00:01:41
A lot of people around, which makes, I gotta say, talking into a microphone attached to your shirt collar.
► 00:01:46
That's why you should stand closer to me so it's not so weird.
► 00:01:49
Can you put your arm through mine?
► 00:01:50
Okay.
► 00:01:50
No, I don't want to do that.
► 00:01:51
People think we're like completely.
► 00:01:53
Okay, yeah, that's true.
► 00:01:53
I mean, it makes it less weird to feel like I'm talking about.
► 00:01:55
Brace, have you ever been here before?
► 00:01:57
Central Park?
► 00:01:57
Yes, I have.
► 00:01:58
When?
► 00:02:00
Four or five years ago.
► 00:02:02
Briefly, it was cold.
► 00:02:04
Really?
► 00:02:05
What did you do?
► 00:02:06
There was a, I think I duck at one point.
► 00:02:10
I don't know.
► 00:02:10
It's a big park.
► 00:02:11
Okay, yeah, I see the dog.
► 00:02:14
It's a big park, so I don't know.
► 00:02:16
It was cold out.
► 00:02:18
and I was going to see a magician.
► 00:02:19
Oh my God.
► 00:02:20
So it was on the way to the, well it was a mentalist.
► 00:02:23
You have.
► 00:02:24
Wait, what's the difference?
► 00:02:25
This guy just does tricks in your mind as opposed to tricks with the dark arts.
► 00:02:29
So it's like.
► 00:02:30
So are tricks with your mind not part of the dark arts?
► 00:02:34
No, it's different.
► 00:02:35
It's all science.
► 00:02:36
Whereas, yeah, it's science.
► 00:02:38
Well, this guy was doing science, and the other people are like doing, like, they're like convening with like Satan and like, you know.
► 00:02:46
I don't understand.
► 00:02:47
Devils and stuff like that.
► 00:02:48
Regardless, we are here in Central Park where Liz is grief.
► 00:02:55
Good grief.
► 00:02:57
And this is an experimental episode.
► 00:03:00
In fact, we're planning on moving the podcast entirely outside.
► 00:03:03
Into Central Park.
► 00:03:04
Into Central Park.
► 00:03:05
Yeah.
► 00:03:06
Because the rent is so high here.
► 00:03:09
The rent's too damn high.
► 00:03:10
Remember that guy?
► 00:03:12
No, who is that guy?
► 00:03:13
Yeah, okay.
► 00:03:14
That was the rent's too damn high guy.
► 00:03:16
Was that a thing?
► 00:03:18
Yeah, the big buttonshots?
► 00:03:19
I don't know.
► 00:03:21
But we're here trolling around like the Upper East Side.
► 00:03:27
Although I gotta say, Upper West Side just seems to be right over there.
► 00:03:30
It looks like a painting.
► 00:03:32
Yeah.
► 00:03:32
That's where Lennon was shot.
► 00:03:35
That was, no, the lady shot him is leaving a meeting in Moscow.
► 00:03:41
Yeah, right there, the John Lennon.
► 00:03:43
Yeah.
► 00:03:44
This has been walking like John Lennon this entire time.
► 00:03:47
No, we've been doing it.
► 00:03:48
We did that experiment yesterday, remember?
► 00:03:49
It was, hey, okay, let's try and walk like how John Lennon did.
► 00:03:52
Will you do it now?
► 00:03:53
Yeah, I can do it.
► 00:03:54
Oh my God, the stance?
► 00:03:56
That is a wide stance.
► 00:03:57
Oh, yeah, we're both doing it right now.
► 00:03:58
I'm doing it way better than you, but yeah.
► 00:04:00
Go faster.
► 00:04:00
Go faster.
► 00:04:01
You can't go.
► 00:04:02
No, you need, it's a lazy walk.
► 00:04:04
Yeah, it's a slinky.
► 00:04:05
Oh, my God.
► 00:04:06
Slinky.
► 00:04:07
Look.
► 00:04:07
And that's a picture.
► 00:04:08
Synchronicity.
► 00:04:09
One of these pathetic little street artists has assembled.
► 00:04:13
Well, he's, that's not a.
► 00:04:15
It's a.
► 00:04:16
I'm not sure Liz understands exactly how portraits work.
► 00:04:18
Brace.
► 00:04:19
That is a.
► 00:04:20
Come closer to me.
► 00:04:22
We just saw a street artist portrait of John Lennon out there, too.
► 00:04:25
Who's that?
► 00:04:26
I don't know.
► 00:04:26
I think she was in Mamma Bia.
► 00:04:29
But we are here.
► 00:04:31
We're by the Upper East Side.
► 00:04:32
And Liz, why are we by the Upper East Side?
► 00:04:34
Because we are on a pilgrimage today.
► 00:04:36
We are on a pilgrimage to Epstein's Mount.
► 00:04:40
Yes, his townhouse.
► 00:04:43
Oh, this looks fancy.
► 00:04:44
Oh, this is Tavern on the Green.
► 00:04:45
Oh.
► 00:04:46
It's quite famous.
► 00:04:47
Oh, well.
► 00:04:47
And Carrie Bradshaw fell into the lake here in an episode of Six in the City.
► 00:04:51
Gotta be real with you.
► 00:04:52
Is the green they're referring to this green fucking disgusting lake right here?
► 00:04:56
Yeah, it looks like they should clean that.
