15 - Mom's Classics - Symphonic Extravaganza
Who would have thought that listening to 5 symphonies for one episode might be a bit too much? Certainly not our humble adventurers!
The list of symphonies we’ve been listening to:
- Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 (Wikipedia).
- Brahms' Symphony No. 3 (Wikipedia).
- Dvořák's Symphony No. 9 - New World Symphony (Wikipedia).
- Mahler's Symphony No. 1 (Wikipedia).
- Sibelius’ Symphony No. 2 (Wikipedia).
Episode Breakdown:
- In the Tavern Talk segment, we’re talking about our favorite quotes (00:02:30). We each bring a quote to discuss, and Peter… overachieved.
- We then head on into the main discussion - we kick it off by talking about how underprepared we were (00:20:12).
- Baryo introduces the 5 symphonies that we’ve been listening to (00:08:21).
- We then share our ranking of the symphonies (00:29:40).
- After ranking the symphonies, we move on to talk about listening to classical music in general (00:51:06).
- We then introduce our next episode, which is going to be a side quest focused on the Anthropocene (01:02:04).

enjoy some of our favorite quotes in the
0:00:24.600,0:00:28.920
tavern talk segment our main discussion
0:00:26.939,0:00:31.439
is about the five symphonies that varios
0:00:28.920,0:00:33.510
mom's chosen for us and we finished by
0:00:31.439,0:00:35.100
previewing our next episode which is
0:00:33.510,0:00:37.699
going to be a side quest about the
0:00:35.100,0:00:37.699
Anthropocene
0:00:37.880,0:00:42.439
[Music]
0:00:42.470,0:00:48.090
hello and welcome to the culture quest
0:00:45.330,0:00:50.820
we are but humble adventurers and today
0:00:48.090,0:00:54.120
we bite more than we can chew with me as
0:00:50.820,0:00:57.630
always are Peter hello and Baryo hello
0:00:54.120,0:00:59.430
and I am Ynon thank you the listeners
0:00:57.630,0:01:02.550
at home for taking part in our noble
0:00:59.430,0:01:04.920
quest today we're doing this classical
0:01:02.550,0:01:07.229
music extravaganza well let me tell you
0:01:04.920,0:01:10.170
a quick story that kind of ties in with
0:01:07.229,0:01:13.410
today's subject so as you know we're all
0:01:10.170,0:01:15.750
having this kind of isolation social
0:01:13.410,0:01:18.930
distancing right now due to the Cova 19
0:01:15.750,0:01:20.910
viruses some out there and well I've
0:01:18.930,0:01:23.250
been trying to keep myself fairly busy
0:01:20.910,0:01:26.040
and a few days ago I had a few hours
0:01:23.250,0:01:27.570
with kind of nothing to do so I you know
0:01:26.040,0:01:29.009
without really thinking about it that
0:01:27.570,0:01:30.840
kind of started playing around with
0:01:29.009,0:01:33.390
sending up a stream on YouTube that
0:01:30.840,0:01:35.820
plays podcasts so you know kind of to
0:01:33.390,0:01:37.619
keep you company in a way that's so sad
0:01:35.820,0:01:39.030
so we won't feel so alone make
0:01:37.619,0:01:40.740
background noises it's kind of like
0:01:39.030,0:01:41.340
leaving the TV on when going to sleep
0:01:40.740,0:01:45.180
yeah
0:01:41.340,0:01:47.100
leaving the TV on for a dog I was
0:01:45.180,0:01:48.840
experimenting with setting up with a
0:01:47.100,0:01:51.060
stream and I was testing stuff with them
0:01:48.840,0:01:52.710
our first episode where we introduced
0:01:51.060,0:01:55.680
the podcast and we talked about Mel
0:01:52.710,0:01:56.970
Brooks the producers and you know it was
0:01:55.680,0:01:58.830
running in the background and then I
0:01:56.970,0:02:01.110
noticed that we when we introduced the
0:01:58.830,0:02:03.330
podcast kind of talked about what we're
0:02:01.110,0:02:05.100
going to do we talked about you know
0:02:03.330,0:02:07.049
what kind of things we can talk about on
0:02:05.100,0:02:09.750
the podcast and we said something along
0:02:07.049,0:02:11.280
the lines of I will do music albums
0:02:09.750,0:02:13.620
we'll talk about movies we'll talk about
0:02:11.280,0:02:15.540
books and who knows maybe one day we'll
0:02:13.620,0:02:19.400
do something really cultural and listen
0:02:15.540,0:02:22.739
to classical music well today's that day
0:02:19.400,0:02:24.390
full circle yeah definitely and we'll
0:02:22.739,0:02:27.060
get to that in a little while but before
0:02:24.390,0:02:28.110
we do we like to have ourselves some
0:02:27.060,0:02:31.300
tavern talk
0:02:28.110,0:02:33.490
[Music]
0:02:31.300,0:02:35.680
in this week's tavern talk we've decided
0:02:33.490,0:02:38.590
to talk about favourite quotes we each
0:02:35.680,0:02:40.060
brought a quote to discuss and honestly
0:02:38.590,0:02:41.950
I can't wait to see what you guys chose
0:02:40.060,0:02:43.480
to bring up because we said it could be
0:02:41.950,0:02:44.890
kind of an inspirational quote which
0:02:43.480,0:02:48.460
that it could be a funny quote something
0:02:44.890,0:02:51.280
you'll live by or really anything so
0:02:48.460,0:02:53.560
wants to go first okay first my quote is
0:02:51.280,0:02:55.210
from Daniel Dennett it's anyone know
0:02:53.560,0:02:59.020
Daniel dinner doesn't sound familiar
0:02:55.210,0:03:01.360
he's forceful he's one of the Four
0:02:59.020,0:03:04.800
Horsemen of atheism or something like
0:03:01.360,0:03:07.420
that but des is by far his worst
0:03:04.800,0:03:08.800
appearance I would say he's written so
0:03:07.420,0:03:11.200
many good books that don't ever get
0:03:08.800,0:03:13.330
mentioned but he's only ever mentioned
0:03:11.200,0:03:15.910
as one of the four horsemen so I'm gonna
0:03:13.330,0:03:18.730
I'm going to give a quote from his book
0:03:15.910,0:03:21.640
freedom evolves here it is
0:03:18.730,0:03:24.520
every living thing is from a cosmic
0:03:21.640,0:03:27.850
perspective incredibly lucky simply to
0:03:24.520,0:03:29.950
be alive most 90% or more of all the
0:03:27.850,0:03:32.230
organisms that have ever lived have died
0:03:29.950,0:03:35.590
without viable offspring but not a
0:03:32.230,0:03:38.140
single one of your ancestors going back
0:03:35.590,0:03:40.959
to the dawn of life on earth suffered
0:03:38.140,0:03:43.450
that normal misfortune you spring from
0:03:40.959,0:03:45.459
an unbroken line of winners going back
0:03:43.450,0:03:48.040
millions of generations and those
0:03:45.459,0:03:50.200
winners were in every generation the
0:03:48.040,0:03:51.850
luckiest of the lucky one out of a
0:03:50.200,0:03:54.130
thousand or even a million
0:03:51.850,0:03:56.290
so however unlucky you may be on some
0:03:54.130,0:03:58.480
occasion today your presence on the
0:03:56.290,0:04:01.030
planet testifies to the role Luck has
0:03:58.480,0:04:03.670
played in your past oh yeah beautiful
0:04:01.030,0:04:06.580
yeah it ticks all the boxes it's pretty
0:04:03.670,0:04:09.010
powerful it encapsulates everything to
0:04:06.580,0:04:09.459
do with life and it makes you feel
0:04:09.010,0:04:15.640
pretty good
0:04:09.459,0:04:18.340
so everyone we're so lucky obviously
0:04:15.640,0:04:20.979
like it couldn't not be the case but it
0:04:18.340,0:04:22.479
still sounds interesting like you can
0:04:20.979,0:04:24.580
never say that I yeah my dad never had
0:04:22.479,0:04:28.479
any children that wouldn't make sense
0:04:24.580,0:04:31.870
but you know it still ya actually think
0:04:28.479,0:04:33.760
about oh yeah all my ancestors would
0:04:31.870,0:04:35.560
have had to be the lucky ones so and all
0:04:33.760,0:04:37.870
of their ancestors would have had to
0:04:35.560,0:04:39.910
been lucky ones and so on so it kind of
0:04:37.870,0:04:41.470
makes me think how random it is for you
0:04:39.910,0:04:42.590
know like the three of us living in the
0:04:41.470,0:04:44.780
same time and
0:04:42.590,0:04:46.910
coming together it's like a little
0:04:44.780,0:04:49.310
change somewhere back in time could have
0:04:46.910,0:04:51.290
changed everything like we take it we
0:04:49.310,0:04:54.050
take this for granted but we are kind of
0:04:51.290,0:04:55.430
in a way lucky to be here it is but the
0:04:54.050,0:04:57.260
thing is the people that weren't lucky
0:04:55.430,0:05:00.080
enough can't ever talk about not being
0:04:57.260,0:05:01.430
lucky enough so only the people are
0:05:00.080,0:05:03.050
lucky enough can talk about how lucky
0:05:01.430,0:05:05.050
they are to be lucky enough to be able
0:05:03.050,0:05:09.110
to talk about how lucky they are so yeah
0:05:05.050,0:05:10.790
yeah it's a we like election buyers yeah
0:05:09.110,0:05:14.090
it reminds me I think also a Stephen
0:05:10.790,0:05:16.910
Hawking had a similar approach regarding
0:05:14.090,0:05:20.180
the existence of life in this universe
0:05:16.910,0:05:23.840
because like it requires the smallest
0:05:20.180,0:05:25.970
change in any physical constant in the
0:05:23.840,0:05:28.400
universe will probably make the universe
0:05:25.970,0:05:32.030
just collapse upon itself or or maybe
0:05:28.400,0:05:34.280
just get too big so it will pretty much
0:05:32.030,0:05:38.830
be empty and life could never exist and
0:05:34.280,0:05:41.810
the fact that there is this very
0:05:38.830,0:05:45.620
infinitesimal chance that you'll have
0:05:41.810,0:05:48.080
those constants right is required in
0:05:45.620,0:05:50.870
order to even start asking the question
0:05:48.080,0:05:53.570
about which constants you actually need
0:05:50.870,0:05:56.360
in order to have life sustaining
0:05:53.570,0:05:59.090
universe so it's kind of the same thing
0:05:56.360,0:06:00.710
you need the right condition in order to
0:05:59.090,0:06:02.750
ask the question about the right
0:06:00.710,0:06:05.090
conditions right yeah yeah that's
0:06:02.750,0:06:08.090
exactly right unless unless you
0:06:05.090,0:06:10.040
subscribe to the many-worlds hypothesis
0:06:08.090,0:06:11.780
where a lot of people do actually I
0:06:10.040,0:06:13.610
don't think Dennett does but there's
0:06:11.780,0:06:16.760
Roger Penrose I think it's the most
0:06:13.610,0:06:19.610
famous but pretty much all the possible
0:06:16.760,0:06:21.970
constants would have occurred in the
0:06:19.610,0:06:25.250
multiverse so essentially there would be
0:06:21.970,0:06:27.710
infinite take a few million examples
0:06:25.250,0:06:30.470
where their universes wouldn't have
0:06:27.710,0:06:32.600
formed and then a few however many
0:06:30.470,0:06:35.450
universes had the right conditions to
0:06:32.600,0:06:39.280
form life which obviously you need
0:06:35.450,0:06:43.280
something to be a replicator then those
0:06:39.280,0:06:44.600
few universes can talk about how lucky
0:06:43.280,0:06:46.130
they are but then again it would be
0:06:44.600,0:06:47.810
inevitable if everything was going to
0:06:46.130,0:06:49.820
happen then everything's inevitable so
0:06:47.810,0:06:52.190
it just becomes confusing doesn't it
0:06:49.820,0:06:54.500
yeah but I gotta say it's I think it's
0:06:52.190,0:06:54.980
it's a call a cool way of looking at
0:06:54.500,0:06:57.120
things
0:06:54.980,0:06:59.069
yeah like to understand
0:06:57.120,0:07:01.289
like what you said about the multiverse
0:06:59.069,0:07:05.520
that everything the can or can't happen
0:07:01.289,0:07:08.460
will probably will happen in in the in
0:07:05.520,0:07:10.500
the infinite scale right I've got
0:07:08.460,0:07:12.930
another chord actually which I've only
0:07:10.500,0:07:15.990
just thought of but I was talked about
0:07:12.930,0:07:19.530
on another podcast but and I don't know
0:07:15.990,0:07:21.780
who it's from the quote is how lucky of
0:07:19.530,0:07:24.389
some people to never been born like
0:07:21.780,0:07:27.210
would would that be what one in a
0:07:24.389,0:07:29.099
thousand to be so lucky it's just it's
0:07:27.210,0:07:32.159
just a funny quote cuz it's like to not
0:07:29.099,0:07:33.840
being born it's a hard concept to wrap
0:07:32.159,0:07:36.870
your head around yeah and how do you
0:07:33.840,0:07:38.970
quantify the number of people that
0:07:36.870,0:07:40.949
aren't being born yeah that's the funny
0:07:38.970,0:07:41.370
bit of it I guess yeah where do you want
0:07:40.949,0:07:44.699
to go next
0:07:41.370,0:07:48.150
well a couple of months ago I had I was
0:07:44.699,0:07:51.030
in a in a crossroad of my career where I
0:07:48.150,0:07:54.599
had to to think if I'm staying in my
0:07:51.030,0:07:59.000
current job or maybe taking another leap
0:07:54.599,0:08:01.139
to to start something that's pretty much
0:07:59.000,0:08:03.719
brand new and kind of leaving everything
0:08:01.139,0:08:07.139
behind and part of that question was
0:08:03.719,0:08:10.500
like joining forces with with someone
0:08:07.139,0:08:15.469
that I really I really really do respect
0:08:10.500,0:08:19.020
but but had a couple of issues that I
0:08:15.469,0:08:24.630
came to be aware of from very closely
0:08:19.020,0:08:27.029
and I I was really confused for about
0:08:24.630,0:08:30.020
two weeks or even more but it seemed
0:08:27.029,0:08:33.120
like forever because I changed my mind
0:08:30.020,0:08:36.419
proudly like on an hourly basis so a
0:08:33.120,0:08:37.979
nitch decision would kind of shatter the
0:08:36.419,0:08:39.570
world right it's like I'm leaving
0:08:37.979,0:08:41.880
everything behind I'm starting something
0:08:39.570,0:08:45.329
new no I'm staying here and I'm and I'm
0:08:41.880,0:08:47.970
missing this opportunity and it was very
0:08:45.329,0:08:50.640
very confusing and I think I just I I
0:08:47.970,0:08:52.950
went through Reddit at some point and I
0:08:50.640,0:08:55.050
got to this place of of interesting
0:08:52.950,0:08:57.810
quotes and again there were probably a
0:08:55.050,0:09:01.890
lot of much better ones but one of them
0:08:57.810,0:09:04.800
caught my eye it was to forgive his
0:09:01.890,0:09:06.150
divine but never pay a full price for a
0:09:04.800,0:09:09.570
late pizza
0:09:06.150,0:09:11.250
I really like that one because it's true
0:09:09.570,0:09:13.320
like to forgive is divine you know it's
0:09:11.250,0:09:14.790
a very Christian thing to say but it's
0:09:13.320,0:09:18.210
hard to forgive it's hard to give
0:09:14.790,0:09:20.760
someone another honest opportunity to
0:09:18.210,0:09:22.860
prove to prove himself to believe in
0:09:20.760,0:09:26.520
someone that that once hurt you
0:09:22.860,0:09:28.770
but but but it's kind of stupid to
0:09:26.520,0:09:30.780
ignore to ignore the past like you have
0:09:28.770,0:09:33.330
to you have to take that in mind when
0:09:30.780,0:09:36.000
when doing some decisions I mean that's
0:09:33.330,0:09:40.590
that's the way not to repeat certain
0:09:36.000,0:09:43.710
mistakes and and and oddly enough I
0:09:40.590,0:09:45.720
think that that reading that quote and
0:09:43.710,0:09:47.430
kind of kind of being amused by it in a
0:09:45.720,0:09:49.980
very in a very serious time kind of took
0:09:47.430,0:09:53.030
me on the path that that eventually I
0:09:49.980,0:09:56.100
decided I mean I got the other info
0:09:53.030,0:09:58.380
afterwards about a lot of things but
0:09:56.100,0:10:02.760
eventually I decided not to go after
0:09:58.380,0:10:05.160
that that opportunity but but it amuses
0:10:02.760,0:10:07.140
me how it feels like that code started
0:10:05.160,0:10:10.080
it all all right
0:10:07.140,0:10:12.150
I love quotes that have like an element
0:10:10.080,0:10:15.060
of novelty in it like the pizza part of
0:10:12.150,0:10:17.130
it yeah it's very charming yeah I think
0:10:15.060,0:10:19.410
that's what spoke to me too like there's
0:10:17.130,0:10:22.050
something very very high and mighty with
0:10:19.410,0:10:24.950
to forgive is divine but then you you
0:10:22.050,0:10:28.620
kind of take it to the to the day-to-day
0:10:24.950,0:10:30.060
practical aspects of it and and you're
0:10:28.620,0:10:32.100
not gonna pay full price for a nice
0:10:30.060,0:10:34.160
pizza when you have a big decision to
0:10:32.100,0:10:36.840
make always turn to the pizza yeah
0:10:34.160,0:10:39.480
that's a pretty cool quote like you know
0:10:36.840,0:10:42.450
let go of the bad feelings but don't
0:10:39.480,0:10:45.180
forget like learn from it I like it yeah
0:10:42.450,0:10:48.090
oh cool you know and you're up okay here
0:10:45.180,0:10:50.160
it is if your cucumber is bitter throw
0:10:48.090,0:10:55.020
it away this is a quote but now I'm
0:10:50.160,0:10:59.460
getting so now definitely definitely not
0:10:55.020,0:11:01.770
that is it from Shrek if your sandwich
0:10:59.460,0:11:05.220
is bitter I know but here's my real
0:11:01.770,0:11:08.130
quote it's a quote by Charles Darwin so
0:11:05.220,0:11:10.830
the language is a bit old-fashioned okay
0:11:08.130,0:11:13.830
here it is I had during many years
0:11:10.830,0:11:15.660
followed a golden rule namely that
0:11:13.830,0:11:17.640
whenever a published fact a new
0:11:15.660,0:11:20.179
observation or thought came across me
0:11:17.640,0:11:22.549
which was opposed to my general
0:11:20.179,0:11:24.889
to make a Memorandum of it without fail
0:11:22.549,0:11:26.959
and at once for I had found by
0:11:24.889,0:11:29.149
experience that such facts and thoughts
0:11:26.959,0:11:32.269
were far more apt to escape from the
0:11:29.149,0:11:32.779
memory than favorable ones what do you
0:11:32.269,0:11:34.789
guys think
0:11:32.779,0:11:36.139
I love Charles Darwin also that well
0:11:34.789,0:11:38.149
that's why we built a university or
0:11:36.139,0:11:41.799
named after him and what I mean way
0:11:38.149,0:11:44.929
obviously like not me personally but
0:11:41.799,0:11:48.369
when I Wayne way I mean people I don't
0:11:44.929,0:11:48.369
know and couldn't name a single one of
0:11:49.839,0:11:56.629
it was a team effort no he's he's a he's
0:11:54.829,0:11:58.699
a smart dude as I'm sure there's a
0:11:56.629,0:12:00.679
probably a plaque that says it in that
0:11:58.699,0:12:02.839
building somewhere basically this code
0:12:00.679,0:12:04.999
talks about kind of how biased we are
0:12:02.839,0:12:06.559
towards our own thoughts and beliefs you
0:12:04.999,0:12:08.179
know in a way that we when we were
0:12:06.559,0:12:10.369
represented with new information that
0:12:08.179,0:12:12.199
contradicts our thoughts and beliefs we
0:12:10.369,0:12:14.539
tend to kind of dismiss them you know
0:12:12.199,0:12:16.279
it's really easy to have your opinion
0:12:14.539,0:12:17.749
and ignore everything that goes against
0:12:16.279,0:12:18.739
it it's really about the scientific
0:12:17.749,0:12:21.379
method right
0:12:18.739,0:12:23.419
yeah that's kind of like in the basis of
0:12:21.379,0:12:26.629
it yeah this is the scientific method
0:12:23.419,0:12:28.939
like always you know be open to new
0:12:26.629,0:12:31.789
results to new data to new information
0:12:28.939,0:12:34.849
but I think I think it fits everyday
0:12:31.789,0:12:36.559
life because like you know anything at
0:12:34.849,0:12:38.389
all if someone has a different opinion
0:12:36.559,0:12:39.859
than yours you might find that they have
0:12:38.389,0:12:41.689
a point or you know that you might agree
0:12:39.859,0:12:43.579
with them or with some of their
0:12:41.689,0:12:45.949
arguments and kind of adjust your
0:12:43.579,0:12:48.079
opinion accordingly or if you have a
0:12:45.949,0:12:49.339
certain method of doing something and
0:12:48.079,0:12:51.499
you see some someone doing it
0:12:49.339,0:12:53.389
differently maybe try and learn from it
0:12:51.499,0:12:54.889
you might have proved your own method
0:12:53.389,0:12:57.919
maybe you'll learn something from it and
0:12:54.889,0:13:00.379
on the other hand completely even if
0:12:57.919,0:13:02.720
you're certain that that this new or
0:13:00.379,0:13:03.919
different opinion is just wrong it's
0:13:02.720,0:13:05.419
still important to give it some thought
0:13:03.919,0:13:07.549
and figure out why it's wrong so you
0:13:05.419,0:13:10.069
could you could learn and avoid making
0:13:07.549,0:13:12.019
that mistake down the road or you know
0:13:10.069,0:13:13.970
explain why it's wrong if you're asked I
0:13:12.019,0:13:16.519
think it's like you've said it's
0:13:13.970,0:13:19.459
basically the the scientific method but
0:13:16.519,0:13:20.869
I think everyone can make something out
0:13:19.459,0:13:22.759
of it in their own lives
0:13:20.869,0:13:26.269
all right great yeah I think that quote
0:13:22.759,0:13:29.720
is like well the gist of it at least is
0:13:26.269,0:13:31.939
so important it should be written in a
0:13:29.720,0:13:33.150
lot of places like I think I'm gonna
0:13:31.939,0:13:36.510
print it out and kind of
0:13:33.150,0:13:38.700
you know put it in in my well everyone
0:13:36.510,0:13:40.980
should put it in in their place of work
0:13:38.700,0:13:43.110
where well we all work from home now but
0:13:40.980,0:13:46.350
so print it and put it in your house
0:13:43.110,0:13:50.280
because like once you remember that
0:13:46.350,0:13:52.140
you're prone to to be to be blinded by
0:13:50.280,0:13:54.090
your ego right and then kinda ignore
0:13:52.140,0:13:57.330
yeah that you don't want to want to
0:13:54.090,0:14:00.000
accept then your you'll probably not
0:13:57.330,0:14:03.030
well at least you won't make the best
0:14:00.000,0:14:05.010
choice you you probably not necessarily
0:14:03.030,0:14:07.470
the bad one but you won't make the man
0:14:05.010,0:14:09.570
choice and that's kind of kind of harm
0:14:07.470,0:14:11.730
you and I think that if you add to that
0:14:09.570,0:14:13.350
the fact that Darwin have you know an
0:14:11.730,0:14:15.840
accomplished scientist came up with that
0:14:13.350,0:14:16.500
well it gives it kind of a bit more
0:14:15.840,0:14:18.780
weight
0:14:16.500,0:14:21.030
it shows how universal that quote is the
0:14:18.780,0:14:23.730
fact that he's someone whose writings
0:14:21.030,0:14:26.010
have changed the scientific world and he
0:14:23.730,0:14:27.660
acknowledges that he may be wrong some
0:14:26.010,0:14:31.230
people you know like see themselves as
0:14:27.660,0:14:33.030
an authority and thus they kind of tend
0:14:31.230,0:14:35.220
to think that they know everything but
0:14:33.030,0:14:37.890
no everyone can be wrong everyone can
0:14:35.220,0:14:40.170
learn from something new from up from
0:14:37.890,0:14:42.930
new information I really like this quote
0:14:40.170,0:14:45.210
I like I try to keep it you know in the
0:14:42.930,0:14:47.160
back of my mind at all times and I think
0:14:45.210,0:14:50.520
more people should know about this quote
0:14:47.160,0:14:53.640
and act upon it yeah here you wanna go
0:14:50.520,0:14:55.680
for another quote I do actually and I've
0:14:53.640,0:14:59.310
told you this one before not and you
0:14:55.680,0:15:00.510
know the person who said it that I don't
0:14:59.310,0:15:03.720
I can't remember his name
0:15:00.510,0:15:06.120
okay it goes like this if you're
0:15:03.720,0:15:10.110
flammable and have legs you can never
0:15:06.120,0:15:11.580
block a fire exit who's that bye-bye
0:15:10.110,0:15:13.770
Regina who said that the sentence
0:15:11.580,0:15:15.660
continues as if there was a fire I
0:15:13.770,0:15:17.490
wasn't gonna run away it's really good
0:15:15.660,0:15:20.790
is that Mitch Hedberg
0:15:17.490,0:15:23.400
perfect bio weld I knew it it sounds it
0:15:20.790,0:15:25.620
sounds exactly like his jokes Mitch
0:15:23.400,0:15:28.320
Hedberg is a comedian I think he died
0:15:25.620,0:15:30.690
like 10 or 15 years ago his stand-up
0:15:28.320,0:15:33.510
comedy's basically a lot of one-liners
0:15:30.690,0:15:35.010
like this one and he's the first tenth
0:15:33.510,0:15:37.710
of committee and I ever listened to and
0:15:35.010,0:15:39.810
he really got me into the whole stand-up
0:15:37.710,0:15:41.730
thing like I didn't I've listened to a
0:15:39.810,0:15:44.520
bunch of stand-up comedy and know of the
0:15:41.730,0:15:46.200
material of a few comedians and like he
0:15:44.520,0:15:47.820
was my entry point to stand-up calm
0:15:46.200,0:15:49.950
I haven't really got into him too much
0:15:47.820,0:15:52.350
Yanis III remember I've gone through
0:15:49.950,0:15:53.850
YouTube after you told me about him and
0:15:52.350,0:15:55.800
I kind of enjoyed a lot of his
0:15:53.850,0:15:57.630
one-liners but I liked that one in
0:15:55.800,0:16:00.540
particular because it's like to me it's
0:15:57.630,0:16:02.670
just say exercise your common sense like
0:16:00.540,0:16:05.220
it's often we sort of get into patterns
0:16:02.670,0:16:07.200
and or we get told something by a
0:16:05.220,0:16:10.320
superior or something like that but like
0:16:07.200,0:16:11.940
this is just like just it's usually
0:16:10.320,0:16:13.650
common sense you know like you know if
0:16:11.940,0:16:14.310
someone if someone is blocking the fire
0:16:13.650,0:16:17.340
exit
0:16:14.310,0:16:21.210
you got your you're obviously gonna run
0:16:17.340,0:16:23.630
if there's a fire say yeah it's a bit
0:16:21.210,0:16:26.070
like a rebel against sort of just
0:16:23.630,0:16:27.660
unnecessary red tape you know no
0:16:26.070,0:16:33.810
anything else before I move into the
0:16:27.660,0:16:35.310
main discussion can I do one more we
0:16:33.810,0:16:39.180
could have a whole episode just about
0:16:35.310,0:16:41.700
your quotes Peter the thing is right I
0:16:39.180,0:16:45.660
didn't plan on the second one or the
0:16:41.700,0:16:48.120
third one but you know conversations
0:16:45.660,0:16:50.220
I've actually like I've just stumbled
0:16:48.120,0:16:54.000
upon what I want to say I've got a book
0:16:50.220,0:16:55.920
open actually it's by Mitchell called
0:16:54.000,0:16:57.180
dishonesty is the second best policy and
0:16:55.920,0:17:01.620
other rules to live by
0:16:57.180,0:17:04.440
it's really good I've told you about
0:17:01.620,0:17:07.709
this right you know it's in my to relist
0:17:04.440,0:17:10.110
yeah yeah it's probably it's probably a
0:17:07.709,0:17:12.720
little bit too British centric for most
0:17:10.110,0:17:13.860
people but to be honest like as an
0:17:12.720,0:17:15.930
Australian you're always reading
0:17:13.860,0:17:18.060
American things and you sort of have to
0:17:15.930,0:17:20.250
just get over like the country of origin
0:17:18.060,0:17:21.870
like when I read a British thing I just
0:17:20.250,0:17:23.640
pretend I'm British you know I just
0:17:21.870,0:17:26.670
think yeah well I'll just get it you
0:17:23.640,0:17:28.460
know but yeah there's a lot of great
0:17:26.670,0:17:31.590
stuff from Britain and after the reading
0:17:28.460,0:17:33.420
Douglas Adams I think yeah I think I'm
0:17:31.590,0:17:35.880
gonna be reading a lot of British stuff
0:17:33.420,0:17:38.820
but this is from a chapter in his book
0:17:35.880,0:17:41.310
called a look at some high arts such as
0:17:38.820,0:17:43.110
opera some slightly less high art such
0:17:41.310,0:17:44.940
as photography and some other stuff that
0:17:43.110,0:17:47.670
you may or may not think of as art so
0:17:44.940,0:17:52.020
let's just call them non sciences now
0:17:47.670,0:17:53.880
I'll get to the quote okay it's like a
0:17:52.020,0:17:56.130
bacon sandwich winning the tastiest
0:17:53.880,0:17:58.320
Apple award at a farm show comedies
0:17:56.130,0:18:00.120
honours easily defined as sandwiches and
0:17:58.320,0:18:02.070
apples I'm sure there's some delivery
0:18:00.120,0:18:04.320
humor in the Martian so maybe that means
0:18:02.070,0:18:06.420
it's a comedy and the award after all is
0:18:04.320,0:18:08.430
for best company not funniest comedy
0:18:06.420,0:18:10.200
maybe after that funny stuff in the
0:18:08.430,0:18:12.570
other films made the Hollywood Foreign
0:18:10.200,0:18:14.460
Press Association filled cheap but all
0:18:12.570,0:18:16.170
these problems stem from trying to
0:18:14.460,0:18:20.010
divide things into meaningful groups
0:18:16.170,0:18:22.530
sports calls to prayers comedy tragedies
0:18:20.010,0:18:24.180
films YouTube clips what is a call to
0:18:22.530,0:18:26.580
prayer but a noisy sport without a
0:18:24.180,0:18:28.710
scoring system what is a drama but in an
0:18:26.580,0:18:31.350
unbelievably long comedy without any
0:18:28.710,0:18:33.060
jokes what is a awards ceremony but a
0:18:31.350,0:18:35.310
strange and inefficient distribution
0:18:33.060,0:18:37.320
system for vulgar knickknacks well some
0:18:35.310,0:18:39.390
would say it's a comedy some a drama
0:18:37.320,0:18:42.150
some with what all the getting up and
0:18:39.390,0:18:44.370
and down a sport it's certainly a called
0:18:42.150,0:18:46.380
a prayer for many nominees a spoon is
0:18:44.370,0:18:49.200
just an ineffective fork with a single
0:18:46.380,0:18:50.730
blunted tine a fork is just a spoon with
0:18:49.200,0:18:52.980
annoying holes that inhibits soup
0:18:50.730,0:18:55.350
consumption what is a soup with a liquid
0:18:52.980,0:18:57.990
mousse in his and a steak and chips it's
0:18:55.350,0:19:00.240
a very hearty lumpy consomme or a hot
0:18:57.990,0:19:02.730
and greasy weapon or a work of Modern
0:19:00.240,0:19:05.820
Art or a weirdly meaty non-dairy cheese
0:19:02.730,0:19:08.400
so the big question I posed does the big
0:19:05.820,0:19:10.470
question I posed have an answer no but
0:19:08.400,0:19:19.500
actually no is an answer and a word and
0:19:10.470,0:19:21.750
I think well okay so I've gotten the
0:19:19.500,0:19:23.970
audio book on audible which I've
0:19:21.750,0:19:26.070
listened to a hundred times and then
0:19:23.970,0:19:27.480
I've got the physical book which I
0:19:26.070,0:19:29.430
always bring to work because it's just
0:19:27.480,0:19:31.290
nice if you've had a bad day you can
0:19:29.430,0:19:33.150
just read it at lunch and then I've got
0:19:31.290,0:19:37.140
it on the Kindle because well I'm just a
0:19:33.150,0:19:39.120
psychopath now say yeah we can go into
0:19:37.140,0:19:43.860
the main discussion or maybe just stick
0:19:39.120,0:19:45.510
with some more chords a bit better say
0:19:43.860,0:19:47.760
you know what Twitter if you fit during
0:19:45.510,0:19:50.010
the main section if you feel the need to
0:19:47.760,0:19:52.310
bring any more quotes regarding what we
0:19:50.010,0:19:54.000
talked about feel free yeah just stop us
0:19:52.310,0:20:00.780
thanks guys
0:19:54.000,0:20:02.040
never needed permission but then I have
0:20:00.780,0:20:03.570
to stop being the really smart
0:20:02.040,0:20:04.880
intellectual one sir
0:20:03.570,0:20:11.920
Oh
0:20:04.880,0:20:15.680
[Music]
0:20:11.920,0:20:18.920
so in the past two weeks we've been
0:20:15.680,0:20:21.110
listening to my mom's five top
0:20:18.920,0:20:24.260
symphonies and we were preparing this
0:20:21.110,0:20:26.900
amazing very intriguing episode about
0:20:24.260,0:20:29.060
classical music from different composers
0:20:26.900,0:20:32.780
from from well pretty much the same time
0:20:29.060,0:20:36.050
but but like something that will pretty
0:20:32.780,0:20:38.510
much blow your mind and the truth is is
0:20:36.050,0:20:42.080
that it would have a little bit more
0:20:38.510,0:20:45.200
than we can chew yep yeah we all had the
0:20:42.080,0:20:48.260
feeling that were not really equipped to
0:20:45.200,0:20:50.570
handle something in the magnitude of a
0:20:48.260,0:20:53.090
musical classical symphony
0:20:50.570,0:20:55.730
I hope that some of you like heard maybe
0:20:53.090,0:20:59.260
some before listening listening to this
0:20:55.730,0:21:01.910
and unless you're probably very
0:20:59.260,0:21:03.980
professional in your in your musical
0:21:01.910,0:21:07.670
knowledge you probably felt kind of like
0:21:03.980,0:21:10.340
us where it's amazing it's beautiful
0:21:07.670,0:21:12.740
it's overwhelming and you're not
0:21:10.340,0:21:16.370
entirely sure what to make of it because
0:21:12.740,0:21:19.130
it's so complicated it's so in it's so
0:21:16.370,0:21:23.290
full of emotions that it's pretty much
0:21:19.130,0:21:26.720
hard to analyze in well we do have some
0:21:23.290,0:21:27.920
some knowledge but this is like two
0:21:26.720,0:21:30.530
steps
0:21:27.920,0:21:32.990
well thousand steps pretty much ahead of
0:21:30.530,0:21:35.510
us I think he can't just say we're
0:21:32.990,0:21:37.550
unenlightened yeah yeah you know from
0:21:35.510,0:21:39.560
all our episodes the preparation for
0:21:37.550,0:21:43.360
this one kind of made me realized how
0:21:39.560,0:21:46.460
much uncultured I am I am because I
0:21:43.360,0:21:48.680
really kind of lacked the tools to to
0:21:46.460,0:21:51.920
fully understand it and even when I
0:21:48.680,0:21:55.010
started to read about the different
0:21:51.920,0:21:57.170
symphonies I was like oh yeah that's
0:21:55.010,0:21:59.540
just right I can relate to that I
0:21:57.170,0:22:01.790
understand that but I would in a million
0:21:59.540,0:22:01.970
years well at least you know how I feel
0:22:01.790,0:22:04.100
now
0:22:01.970,0:22:06.860
could have guessed could have guessed
0:22:04.100,0:22:08.660
that that interpretation I think the way
0:22:06.860,0:22:10.280
I see it you know because we don't
0:22:08.660,0:22:12.230
listen to classical music and we're not
0:22:10.280,0:22:14.860
experts or you know we're not even very
0:22:12.230,0:22:17.780
familiar with classical music it's like
0:22:14.860,0:22:20.390
listening to a story told in another
0:22:17.780,0:22:22.460
language like you can hear the tonality
0:22:20.390,0:22:24.500
of the words you can hear the kind of
0:22:22.460,0:22:26.510
the mood of the speaker
0:22:24.500,0:22:28.460
you can make the the story out you can
0:22:26.510,0:22:30.970
make the moral
0:22:28.460,0:22:32.150
out of it you know it's it's just
0:22:30.970,0:22:34.880
overwhelming
0:22:32.150,0:22:37.960
each Symphony is big each Symphony has a
0:22:34.880,0:22:40.460
lot in it and just to process it is
0:22:37.960,0:22:41.840
extremely hard and that's why I don't
0:22:40.460,0:22:44.270
know when I was reading about the
0:22:41.840,0:22:46.490
symphonies you always see how they
0:22:44.270,0:22:48.380
always mention how people reacted after
0:22:46.490,0:22:49.940
the symphony premiered after it was
0:22:48.380,0:22:52.400
played for the first time and I'm
0:22:49.940,0:22:55.550
thinking to myself how can they form
0:22:52.400,0:22:57.620
opinions of it so quickly it takes a few
0:22:55.550,0:23:00.500
lessons to just know what to expect to
0:22:57.620,0:23:04.100
hear you know like I think that the main
0:23:00.500,0:23:05.780
gist of the of the piece is kinda it's
0:23:04.100,0:23:08.780
kind of there like it takes you through
0:23:05.780,0:23:10.910
different stages like all of them they
0:23:08.780,0:23:14.060
got like different chapters and each one
0:23:10.910,0:23:16.280
kind of tells something else and I think
0:23:14.060,0:23:19.100
that when you're talking about the main
0:23:16.280,0:23:21.620
theme like what that chapter tries to
0:23:19.100,0:23:23.450
tell you it's kind of its kind of there
0:23:21.620,0:23:26.480
in the open like you can understand and
0:23:23.450,0:23:28.370
the main plot well it's it may be hard
0:23:26.480,0:23:30.890
to follow but like for each given moment
0:23:28.370,0:23:32.960
you understand what what they're telling
0:23:30.890,0:23:35.090
you but I don't know what I felt most of
0:23:32.960,0:23:37.400
the time is that I'm kind of missing
0:23:35.090,0:23:39.410
everything else like that that's the
0:23:37.400,0:23:42.320
only thing only things that I that I can
0:23:39.410,0:23:44.060
get my grasp on okay now I know it's
0:23:42.320,0:23:47.090
we're escaping something it's really
0:23:44.060,0:23:49.910
rhythmic and I hear the drums behind me
0:23:47.090,0:23:52.310
and there's violins that kind of opened
0:23:49.910,0:23:54.590
the way up ahead and and that that was
0:23:52.310,0:23:57.440
kind of the feeling that I got but
0:23:54.590,0:24:01.670
around that there were so many motives
0:23:57.440,0:24:03.860
that I felt that I'm not able to even
0:24:01.670,0:24:06.200
start on understanding and appreciating
0:24:03.860,0:24:09.020
it's kind of like looking at the movie
0:24:06.200,0:24:12.110
and missing all the these small
0:24:09.020,0:24:13.940
references the small emerges sometimes
0:24:12.110,0:24:16.400
maybe even like main plot points yeah
0:24:13.940,0:24:19.340
yeah like a lot of maybe hints that
0:24:16.400,0:24:21.020
cannot point towards the other parts of
0:24:19.340,0:24:23.990
the movie and those are the things that
0:24:21.020,0:24:26.480
that make you appreciate a piece yeah as
0:24:23.990,0:24:28.730
a whole like the genius of it because
0:24:26.480,0:24:30.770
you understand it's not only the thing
0:24:28.730,0:24:33.710
that that sits in plain sight but it's
0:24:30.770,0:24:36.920
something much much deeper and had a lot
0:24:33.710,0:24:38.300
of thought put into it yeah exactly
0:24:36.920,0:24:40.400
what did you think Peter how
0:24:38.300,0:24:42.440
how was your experience listen to
0:24:40.400,0:24:44.960
classical music for the last couple of
0:24:42.440,0:24:46.760
weeks well when I said it to my friends
0:24:44.960,0:24:48.710
actually they were like oh you're
0:24:46.760,0:24:50.660
dreading this one ie our third no
0:24:48.710,0:24:54.530
because I'd already listen to them all
0:24:50.660,0:24:56.600
just like once through and it was just
0:24:54.530,0:24:59.570
like I had them on when I was just
0:24:56.600,0:25:02.030
sitting at my desk and it's so sort of
0:24:59.570,0:25:03.830
it's very atmospheric when you're
0:25:02.030,0:25:06.380
listening to classic music like when
0:25:03.830,0:25:08.750
you're listening to regular like hip hop
0:25:06.380,0:25:11.810
or classic rock or something like that
0:25:08.750,0:25:14.810
it's just it's just a song really but
0:25:11.810,0:25:16.910
this really puts you in a mood more than
0:25:14.810,0:25:18.350
a lot of other songs like other songs
0:25:16.910,0:25:19.970
when I'm listening to like Led Zeppelin
0:25:18.350,0:25:22.430
or something like that which they're a
0:25:19.970,0:25:24.920
great band I'm listening to them and I
0:25:22.430,0:25:26.650
kind of the the vibe where the song sort
0:25:24.920,0:25:30.860
of rubs off on me a little bit but
0:25:26.650,0:25:33.110
classical music in my experience just
0:25:30.860,0:25:35.780
whatever was on at that point that was
0:25:33.110,0:25:38.840
the mood surfers listening to are we
0:25:35.780,0:25:43.640
calling him do Rock let's check this out
0:25:38.840,0:25:47.680
Wayne antonín dvorák antonín dvorák to
0:25:43.640,0:25:50.360
forge a divorce oh boy okay any chance
0:25:47.680,0:25:54.400
we're gonna cut out my first attempt
0:25:50.360,0:25:54.400
[Laughter]
0:25:55.180,0:26:00.200
yeah okay all right so when I was
0:25:58.520,0:26:02.750
listening to like Dvorak was something
0:26:00.200,0:26:04.520
that I really felt like I was in the
0:26:02.750,0:26:05.930
grips of like an action movie or
0:26:04.520,0:26:08.300
something like that you know I felt like
0:26:05.930,0:26:10.070
sometimes I would just be like doing
0:26:08.300,0:26:11.870
basic work or something like that
0:26:10.070,0:26:14.180
scrolling reddit or something I'm like
0:26:11.870,0:26:18.850
wow this is intense isn't it like this
0:26:14.180,0:26:18.850
is like I felt like I was sweating and
0:26:18.910,0:26:23.720
but I would never get that from an
0:26:21.350,0:26:25.160
intense rock song never get that and the
0:26:23.720,0:26:26.420
thing is like I don't know how famous
0:26:25.160,0:26:29.600
these people are and I obviously
0:26:26.420,0:26:31.520
Beethoven is well-known but I'm not
0:26:29.600,0:26:35.060
really familiar with the others so this
0:26:31.520,0:26:37.580
is sort of like a first dip like toe in
0:26:35.060,0:26:40.100
the water for me so I'd love to sort of
0:26:37.580,0:26:42.800
once we do these I'd love to eventually
0:26:40.100,0:26:44.330
do like maybe classical music version
0:26:42.800,0:26:46.970
two and we do another five and
0:26:44.330,0:26:48.770
eventually we sort of have like a bit of
0:26:46.970,0:26:51.020
a series where we kind of build them up
0:26:48.770,0:26:52.140
because I feel like I've had such a good
0:26:51.020,0:26:54.120
time yet I
0:26:52.140,0:26:56.190
they dip my toe in the water and I've
0:26:54.120,0:26:58.230
had such a good time say there's lots
0:26:56.190,0:27:01.320
more out there I'm sure yeah cool
0:26:58.230,0:27:03.590
I found myself I can listen to a bunch
0:27:01.320,0:27:06.530
of music when I'm working so I listen to
0:27:03.590,0:27:09.810
sometimes two or three symphonies a day
0:27:06.530,0:27:12.630
off of the this list that we've compiled
0:27:09.810,0:27:16.310
and you know some of them are more
0:27:12.630,0:27:18.600
accessible and catchy than others but
0:27:16.310,0:27:20.940
the thing that helped me the most was
0:27:18.600,0:27:23.040
that I already have some experience with
0:27:20.940,0:27:25.260
classical music like Beethoven's fifth
0:27:23.040,0:27:28.110
and Dvorak ninth the New World Symphony
0:27:25.260,0:27:30.330
both were on our list are two that I've
0:27:28.110,0:27:32.190
I was already pretty familiar with them
0:27:30.330,0:27:33.480
and kind of I could have recognized each
0:27:32.190,0:27:35.580
and every part of them each and every
0:27:33.480,0:27:37.950
movement of them without the rest of
0:27:35.580,0:27:41.250
them the other three so culture didn't
0:27:37.950,0:27:43.410
Pera well when I was I don't know like
0:27:41.250,0:27:44.970
ten years ago and listened to I started
0:27:43.410,0:27:47.190
listening to classical music and I got
0:27:44.970,0:27:49.440
myself a book it's called music and
0:27:47.190,0:27:51.750
appreciation and it goes over kind of
0:27:49.440,0:27:54.270
all the periods of Arts like um it
0:27:51.750,0:27:57.330
starts with medieval music and then it
0:27:54.270,0:27:59.700
goes into barak and then classical and
0:27:57.330,0:28:02.100
then romantic and then modern and
0:27:59.700,0:28:03.900
postmodern and world music and it kind
0:28:02.100,0:28:05.340
of tells you what to listen with each
0:28:03.900,0:28:07.140
and every one and it shows you examples
0:28:05.340,0:28:08.910
and kind of what's the difference
0:28:07.140,0:28:09.660
between the different periods and stuff
0:28:08.910,0:28:12.420
that's awesome
0:28:09.660,0:28:14.550
yeah so I've some some experience but
0:28:12.420,0:28:16.590
even with that I'll talk about it a
0:28:14.550,0:28:18.660
little later when we talk specifically
0:28:16.590,0:28:21.120
about each one its Symphony but some of
0:28:18.660,0:28:22.430
them just didn't click for me okay
0:28:21.120,0:28:26.870
Baird you want to go over the list of
0:28:22.430,0:28:31.590
symphonies we've been listening to the
0:28:26.870,0:28:35.640
symphonies that my mom recommended we'll
0:28:31.590,0:28:38.040
start with with Brahms third it was
0:28:35.640,0:28:40.830
composed in 1883 it was part of the
0:28:38.040,0:28:43.410
Romantic period it's not the longest one
0:28:40.830,0:28:48.630
it's it's it's one of the shorter ones
0:28:43.410,0:28:50.460
almost nice the New World Symphony it's
0:28:48.630,0:28:50.910
called the new world or from the new
0:28:50.460,0:28:53.720
world
0:28:50.910,0:28:57.840
yeah that's and names it's known by from
0:28:53.720,0:29:00.930
1893 again in the Romantic period then
0:28:57.840,0:29:04.640
there's mothers first that he composed
0:29:00.930,0:29:09.890
between 1887 to 1888
0:29:04.640,0:29:11.990
again in the Roman Imperial we got we
0:29:09.890,0:29:17.600
got better than fifth probably one of
0:29:11.990,0:29:19.520
the most familiar and it yeah that's the
0:29:17.600,0:29:23.630
oldest symphony we've been listening to
0:29:19.520,0:29:36.830
yeah from it was composed between 1804
0:29:23.630,0:29:38.600
to 1800 817 oh - to 1904 the end of the
0:29:36.830,0:29:41.510
Romantic period at the beginning of the
0:29:38.600,0:29:44.720
modern period let's go let's start with
0:29:41.510,0:29:46.250
barrio what's out of these 5 what would
0:29:44.720,0:29:51.200
you rank is number 5 the one you've
0:29:46.250,0:29:54.620
connected to the least well it's a bit
0:29:51.200,0:29:57.560
hard and I'm not completely agreeing
0:29:54.620,0:29:59.810
with myself but I think I mean I loved
0:29:57.560,0:30:03.470
all of them I think all of them were
0:29:59.810,0:30:06.980
brilliant I think I got the list related
0:30:03.470,0:30:09.380
to Sibelius 2nd and that's probably
0:30:06.980,0:30:12.050
because I I didn't hear it as much
0:30:09.380,0:30:15.170
because I had this playlist that I made
0:30:12.050,0:30:18.710
in Super the second is at the end so I
0:30:15.170,0:30:20.870
heard it the least probably it helped
0:30:18.710,0:30:23.270
also because I kind of have like a very
0:30:20.870,0:30:24.710
different vibe from from the rest there
0:30:23.270,0:30:26.780
what about you what would you rank is
0:30:24.710,0:30:30.260
number 5 my number 5
0:30:26.780,0:30:33.590
well all of mine were close but they're
0:30:30.260,0:30:36.320
only close between like 4th and 3rd and
0:30:33.590,0:30:38.630
4th 2nd or 3rd 1st and 2nd like if I
0:30:36.320,0:30:43.880
compare number one to number 5 it's it's
0:30:38.630,0:30:47.240
a no competition so my number 5 was also
0:30:43.880,0:30:51.470
Sibelius is second and it's interesting
0:30:47.240,0:30:54.830
the reason why I put it last was I still
0:30:51.470,0:30:58.640
enjoyed it but only only I liked it I
0:30:54.830,0:31:00.710
didn't love it and it didn't feel as let
0:30:58.640,0:31:03.830
me say it didn't feel as thumb attic as
0:31:00.710,0:31:06.770
some of the others I felt it was it was
0:31:03.830,0:31:09.740
broken like the theme sort of shifted a
0:31:06.770,0:31:12.530
little bit in a few parts and I couldn't
0:31:09.740,0:31:15.140
really get like the narrative that was
0:31:12.530,0:31:18.020
present in at least the first hurry and
0:31:15.140,0:31:21.110
the fourth had I would say
0:31:18.020,0:31:22.910
more of our definitive feel to it then
0:31:21.110,0:31:25.750
Sibelius I don't know if it was because
0:31:22.910,0:31:28.670
it's one of the later ones but I
0:31:25.750,0:31:31.130
probably wouldn't listen to this too
0:31:28.670,0:31:33.440
often and because of that obviously I
0:31:31.130,0:31:35.600
listen to my favorites more often and
0:31:33.440,0:31:37.850
this one was sort of yeah at the bottom
0:31:35.600,0:31:40.100
of the list and I didn't didn't get into
0:31:37.850,0:31:44.630
it as much so that was my number 5 yeah
0:31:40.100,0:31:46.120
ok cool my number five is Sibelius
0:31:44.630,0:31:50.060
second Wow
0:31:46.120,0:31:51.770
I kind of agree with you guys I like you
0:31:50.060,0:31:53.840
said Peter and I'll listen to the ones I
0:31:51.770,0:31:57.460
liked more more than the others
0:31:53.840,0:31:59.810
but I tried to pick Sibelius 2nd up more
0:31:57.460,0:32:01.220
near the end of these two a couple of
0:31:59.810,0:32:02.960
weeks because I wanted to give it a fair
0:32:01.220,0:32:05.540
chance and it's definitely beautiful
0:32:02.960,0:32:08.060
like when I sat and listened to it with
0:32:05.540,0:32:10.850
no distractions and I definitely enjoyed
0:32:08.060,0:32:12.440
it but it kind of didn't catch my
0:32:10.850,0:32:14.720
attention as much as the others like
0:32:12.440,0:32:17.570
there was last tune to hold on to with
0:32:14.720,0:32:21.110
this one I liked it but I still think
0:32:17.570,0:32:24.380
it's the one I out of this 5 ranked at
0:32:21.110,0:32:26.570
the bottom let's see if we keep this
0:32:24.380,0:32:28.880
consistency up if we choose the exact
0:32:26.570,0:32:32.630
same list by oh what's your number for
0:32:28.880,0:32:35.300
my number for and again I I I really
0:32:32.630,0:32:38.930
liked it but just because I have I have
0:32:35.300,0:32:42.050
to rank his mother's first I think it
0:32:38.930,0:32:46.100
was brilliant I really like the the
0:32:42.050,0:32:47.780
violins there I don't know I don't
0:32:46.100,0:32:50.510
really have anything bad to say about it
0:32:47.780,0:32:52.790
just like if I look at the other at the
0:32:50.510,0:33:00.080
other three I just like them better yeah
0:32:52.790,0:33:04.900
Peter my fourth was malice fest this is
0:33:00.080,0:33:07.280
incredible actually I just felt like it
0:33:04.900,0:33:09.410
had more than narrative which I didn't
0:33:07.280,0:33:11.870
get from Sibelius but it wasn't as
0:33:09.410,0:33:15.830
powerful as the other three to me yeah
0:33:11.870,0:33:17.600
it just it really lacked power Sibelius
0:33:15.830,0:33:19.370
actually probably had more Drive in it I
0:33:17.600,0:33:22.360
felt like there was some moments which
0:33:19.370,0:33:25.520
were really nice and Sibelius whereas
0:33:22.360,0:33:28.940
mail was more consistent but it was it
0:33:25.520,0:33:30.269
was it just didn't really hook me in
0:33:28.940,0:33:34.769
yeah
0:33:30.269,0:33:36.509
my number four is Muller's first and
0:33:34.769,0:33:39.269
actually fitter you you described
0:33:36.509,0:33:42.149
exactly my feelings like I really like
0:33:39.269,0:33:44.729
this one it's beautiful it's just not as
0:33:42.149,0:33:47.099
powerful as the next three it's not as
0:33:44.729,0:33:49.289
like the next three are just exciting
0:33:47.099,0:33:50.669
yeah and uh do you mind if I play a
0:33:49.289,0:33:52.950
couple of some samples from this show
0:33:50.669,0:33:55.019
yeah I don't know maybe the thing I
0:33:52.950,0:33:57.809
liked the most about this is the first
0:33:55.019,0:34:00.029
movement which builds up very slowly but
0:33:57.809,0:34:02.579
beautifully and it's like it's worth
0:34:00.029,0:34:04.440
your patience because like after a few
0:34:02.579,0:34:06.059
minutes I don't really maybe four or
0:34:04.440,0:34:09.720
five I don't remember how many minutes
0:34:06.059,0:34:12.610
but it becomes very lively and fun like
0:34:09.720,0:34:37.170
here's here's a sound clip
0:34:12.610,0:34:39.990
[Music]
0:34:37.170,0:34:42.700
it feels like dancing art violence
0:34:39.990,0:34:44.380
beautiful very cohesive isn't it really
0:34:42.700,0:34:47.260
is nothing bad to say about this one
0:34:44.380,0:34:49.480
cool bio what's your number three my
0:34:47.260,0:34:52.210
number three is Beth Vince fifth maybe
0:34:49.480,0:34:56.920
now it will make the podcast stop being
0:34:52.210,0:34:58.950
so boring by agreeing my number three is
0:34:56.920,0:35:02.200
the better friend safe
0:34:58.950,0:35:06.580
it's it's amazing it's powerful it's
0:35:02.200,0:35:09.670
it's it's really it really gets you but
0:35:06.580,0:35:12.610
I'm I was also kind of familiar with it
0:35:09.670,0:35:14.920
and but like Beth of and fifth is is
0:35:12.610,0:35:16.600
just you know is it's it's kind of like
0:35:14.920,0:35:18.560
Meryl Streep it's it's it's not
0:35:16.600,0:35:22.320
surprising that it's not it's so good
0:35:18.560,0:35:25.990
[Laughter]
0:35:22.320,0:35:27.730
that's amazing so so yeah it's just the
0:35:25.990,0:35:29.170
number three yeah cool Peter what's
0:35:27.730,0:35:31.180
yours er what's your number three well
0:35:29.170,0:35:34.600
I'll say the fourth and fifth were solid
0:35:31.180,0:35:40.000
likes but these top three of loves light
0:35:34.600,0:35:44.880
I really love these ones and my third
0:35:40.000,0:35:47.530
was Dvorak ninth new world sympathy so
0:35:44.880,0:35:50.200
not the same as the barrios is not the
0:35:47.530,0:35:55.120
same a barrier hallelujah were surprised
0:35:50.200,0:35:57.460
okay cool the vortex 9th really reminded
0:35:55.120,0:36:00.460
me of sort of like an action film had
0:35:57.460,0:36:03.760
sort of elements of like a Batman chase
0:36:00.460,0:36:07.120
going on and what I really liked was it
0:36:03.760,0:36:09.100
sort of it built up over time and it
0:36:07.120,0:36:12.460
just became more intense more intense
0:36:09.100,0:36:16.780
and there was repeating elements that
0:36:12.460,0:36:19.120
kind of came up in sort of subtle subtly
0:36:16.780,0:36:23.140
different instruments that were yeah
0:36:19.120,0:36:25.570
sort of repeating and this was really
0:36:23.140,0:36:29.350
enjoyable I didn't I didn't really hook
0:36:25.570,0:36:31.090
on to it at first but after a few
0:36:29.350,0:36:33.430
listens he should get the hang of it a
0:36:31.090,0:36:35.590
little bit and and you sort of know what
0:36:33.430,0:36:38.890
to expect and then it gets better so
0:36:35.590,0:36:41.440
that was number three yeah you know the
0:36:38.890,0:36:43.450
the verse acts ninth you can really hear
0:36:41.440,0:36:45.790
the themes repeating especially I think
0:36:43.450,0:36:47.650
in the fourth movement you hear a lot of
0:36:45.790,0:36:48.680
the earlier things from the first second
0:36:47.650,0:36:50.630
and third movement
0:36:48.680,0:36:53.720
repeating sometimes in a different key
0:36:50.630,0:36:56.839
like from minor to major or vice versa
0:36:53.720,0:36:59.270
and sometimes on different instruments
0:36:56.839,0:37:03.980
and like in different contexts and it's
0:36:59.270,0:37:07.010
just very nice beautiful well my number
0:37:03.980,0:37:09.230
3 I'll talk about Beethoven's 5th and
0:37:07.010,0:37:12.530
Dvorak 9th some more later because my
0:37:09.230,0:37:14.839
number three is Bram's third which I
0:37:12.530,0:37:16.339
think this we haven't agreed on number
0:37:14.839,0:37:19.339
three at all yeah because now it will
0:37:16.339,0:37:21.710
become interesting for the two best yeah
0:37:19.339,0:37:24.260
I thought Brahms three was you know
0:37:21.710,0:37:27.200
exciting it had this feeling of longing
0:37:24.260,0:37:29.420
that always kind of yeah I just love I
0:37:27.200,0:37:31.970
love this kind of feeling I really like
0:37:29.420,0:37:34.880
this symphony but what stood out to me
0:37:31.970,0:37:37.760
and I'll keep listening to is the third
0:37:34.880,0:37:40.660
movement which I'm gonna play just the
0:37:37.760,0:38:04.030
21st seconds or so
0:37:40.660,0:38:06.220
[Music]
0:38:04.030,0:38:09.760
I think this was the best part of the
0:38:06.220,0:38:12.340
symphony it's a bit sad it's haunting it
0:38:09.760,0:38:14.230
makes me think of castles in winter
0:38:12.340,0:38:15.490
that's the words that come to my mind
0:38:14.230,0:38:18.130
when I'm trying to capture the feeling
0:38:15.490,0:38:20.050
that this gives me it reminds me of kind
0:38:18.130,0:38:22.630
of the the beauty and the beast' and
0:38:20.050,0:38:25.210
maybe older Disney feel and it also
0:38:22.630,0:38:26.020
really reminded me a lot of one of my
0:38:25.210,0:38:28.450
favorite albums
0:38:26.020,0:38:30.400
it's called dusk and her embrace by a
0:38:28.450,0:38:33.880
band called Cradle of Filth which is a
0:38:30.400,0:38:36.760
metal band which most of their albums
0:38:33.880,0:38:39.160
are met but I've really loved this one
0:38:36.760,0:38:41.230
album it's very melodic has kind of the
0:38:39.160,0:38:43.180
same feeling of longing that this
0:38:41.230,0:38:46.120
Symphony has and I don't know that the
0:38:43.180,0:38:48.280
whole symphony is amazing but this third
0:38:46.120,0:38:50.260
movement is just I know just a step
0:38:48.280,0:38:54.340
above the rest if you like it so much
0:38:50.260,0:38:56.260
why is it your number three and on just
0:38:54.340,0:39:00.070
wait what he has to say about the number
0:38:56.260,0:39:04.530
two yeah number two by oh what's your
0:39:00.070,0:39:08.920
number to my number two is the Dvorak
0:39:04.530,0:39:11.890
New World Symphony the way it's building
0:39:08.920,0:39:16.630
maybe you know it maybe also depends on
0:39:11.890,0:39:20.380
on the actual listening session I had
0:39:16.630,0:39:23.230
with it but I was I was able to be very
0:39:20.380,0:39:28.210
into it like I don't really deep into it
0:39:23.230,0:39:30.700
and and I really felt on a journey right
0:39:28.210,0:39:35.470
I felt that it took me to a new world
0:39:30.700,0:39:37.360
right yeah so I just I just loved it you
0:39:35.470,0:39:39.970
know what like I'm trying that's what I
0:39:37.360,0:39:43.150
said at the beginning I'm trying to like
0:39:39.970,0:39:45.760
describe what I loved about it like the
0:39:43.150,0:39:49.030
parts and how it made me feel but I
0:39:45.760,0:39:51.850
don't have the I don't have the ways to
0:39:49.030,0:39:53.440
to express to express it that's very
0:39:51.850,0:39:56.530
frustrating I don't I don't I don't feel
0:39:53.440,0:40:00.220
like I have this restriction in any it
0:39:56.530,0:40:01.950
well at least not in any common subject
0:40:00.220,0:40:05.680
that that I have in my life and that's
0:40:01.950,0:40:07.540
weird like it makes me don't don't don't
0:40:05.680,0:40:10.350
use words barrio express your feelings
0:40:07.540,0:40:13.060
with dance in the song
0:40:10.350,0:40:14.860
but but you know that's that's the cool
0:40:13.060,0:40:17.440
thing about about this culture quest
0:40:14.860,0:40:20.770
because I want to develop the tools to
0:40:17.440,0:40:25.630
express what those make me feel here
0:40:20.770,0:40:28.240
number two my number two is Brahms third
0:40:25.630,0:40:30.040
and I totally agree with everything he
0:40:28.240,0:40:34.030
said you did a good summary but it's
0:40:30.040,0:40:37.780
it's it's not to be long shorts wait but
0:40:34.030,0:40:40.030
this one is probably even more so than
0:40:37.780,0:40:43.510
my number one which you'll be able to
0:40:40.030,0:40:45.300
figure out by the laws of deduction it
0:40:43.510,0:40:46.470
actually brought out probably more
0:40:45.300,0:40:48.670
imagery
0:40:46.470,0:40:49.870
whereas number one brought out more
0:40:48.670,0:40:53.410
emotion this one brought out more
0:40:49.870,0:40:56.080
imagery for me and it really reminded me
0:40:53.410,0:40:59.800
of sort of like a panoramic drone
0:40:56.080,0:41:03.460
footage of a of a abandoned islands and
0:40:59.800,0:41:06.310
being really cold in winter and and I
0:41:03.460,0:41:08.110
think it's is probably used in films and
0:41:06.310,0:41:10.960
stuff but it definitely reminded me of
0:41:08.110,0:41:13.870
sort of a opening scene way or like
0:41:10.960,0:41:16.720
setting the panoramic image of like an
0:41:13.870,0:41:19.750
abandoned sort of Island mmm cool yeah
0:41:16.720,0:41:22.180
mmm my second was Beethoven's fifth
0:41:19.750,0:41:23.860
which you know not like you guys said
0:41:22.180,0:41:26.290
what is there to say about the symphony
0:41:23.860,0:41:35.530
it's I think it slaps it's it's total
0:41:26.290,0:41:41.680
fine if you think it's safe today you to
0:41:35.530,0:41:49.720
say that cocks live man Scott's life is
0:41:41.680,0:41:52.390
totally okay I think it's second for me
0:41:49.720,0:41:53.740
I think this top two places were kind of
0:41:52.390,0:41:56.770
conserved for these two symphonies
0:41:53.740,0:41:59.020
because like I just knew them better so
0:41:56.770,0:42:02.050
it was easy for me to kind of you know
0:41:59.020,0:42:04.150
dig deeper into them to kind of find the
0:42:02.050,0:42:04.960
themes in them a little bit easier I
0:42:04.150,0:42:06.610
don't know I
0:42:04.960,0:42:08.140
you know Beethoven's fifth I think the
0:42:06.610,0:42:10.150
first movement the one that everyone
0:42:08.140,0:42:10.630
knows is just amazing awesome use of
0:42:10.150,0:42:12.880
horns
0:42:10.630,0:42:16.750
I think the second movement is quieter
0:42:12.880,0:42:18.250
and calmer it has this big nest it's you
0:42:16.750,0:42:20.770
know it's it's it's the calm and quiet
0:42:18.250,0:42:22.299
movement in the symphony but it has the
0:42:20.770,0:42:23.799
feeling of importance
0:42:22.299,0:42:26.410
I can't describe it any better than that
0:42:23.799,0:42:28.119
in the third and fourth movements you
0:42:26.410,0:42:30.219
know they're almost is one in my mind
0:42:28.119,0:42:33.039
because the third flows into the fourth
0:42:30.219,0:42:35.469
there's no clear separation between them
0:42:33.039,0:42:38.170
and it's just a piece of I don't I think
0:42:35.469,0:42:40.599
twenty minutes of music that's starts
0:42:38.170,0:42:41.890
really dramatic and then it becomes epic
0:42:40.599,0:42:43.869
you know the Fourth Movement
0:42:41.890,0:42:46.660
specifically kind of sounds like a John
0:42:43.869,0:42:48.849
Williams score which I don't know you
0:42:46.660,0:42:50.650
can interpret it any way that you like
0:42:48.849,0:42:52.539
some people might say it's not a good
0:42:50.650,0:42:55.689
thing but never mind now let me play a
0:42:52.539,0:42:57.630
clip that kind of just the first few
0:42:55.689,0:43:00.339
seconds of the fourth movement which
0:42:57.630,0:43:02.019
it's it's not doing it right because you
0:43:00.339,0:43:05.840
have to hear it with a third movement
0:43:02.019,0:43:21.850
but what are you gonna do here you go
0:43:05.840,0:43:25.550
[Music]
0:43:21.850,0:43:27.440
it feels victorious it feels awesome I
0:43:25.550,0:43:29.600
can't listen to it without throwing my
0:43:27.440,0:43:32.690
fists up in here you know I love it i
0:43:29.600,0:43:34.760
it's it's so big it's so big oh my god
0:43:32.690,0:43:38.830
Becky oh my god Becky look at her
0:43:34.760,0:43:38.830
Symphony it's so big
0:43:39.190,0:43:45.830
okay um Mario now reveal your number one
0:43:42.740,0:43:49.460
even though like yeah but for all the
0:43:45.830,0:43:53.120
listeners that aren't following so my
0:43:49.460,0:43:57.380
number one is brands third which isn't
0:43:53.120,0:44:01.880
yours but brands third is a symphony
0:43:57.380,0:44:04.850
that talks to inner part part of me I
0:44:01.880,0:44:06.380
think like as I told you this always
0:44:04.850,0:44:08.060
come from my mother and I think Brahms
0:44:06.380,0:44:09.620
third is probably one of her favorite
0:44:08.060,0:44:11.450
because it was number one
0:44:09.620,0:44:14.420
like when she gave me those symphonies
0:44:11.450,0:44:16.550
this was the first one sheshe came up
0:44:14.420,0:44:20.240
with so I think it's one of her favorite
0:44:16.550,0:44:23.000
too and hence it's kind of been playing
0:44:20.240,0:44:25.160
at my house my entire childhood and yeah
0:44:23.000,0:44:27.770
so listening to this but really
0:44:25.160,0:44:31.750
listening to this and like diving a bit
0:44:27.770,0:44:35.540
deeper I know it made a lot of things
0:44:31.750,0:44:39.260
float like if the the New World Symphony
0:44:35.540,0:44:39.980
kind of took me on a journey to too far
0:44:39.260,0:44:43.760
places
0:44:39.980,0:44:47.150
Bram's third kinda took me in kind of
0:44:43.760,0:44:48.980
made me feel a bit other stuff and that
0:44:47.150,0:44:51.530
was very very interesting and also when
0:44:48.980,0:44:53.810
I went in and read about Bram's he also
0:44:51.530,0:44:55.970
have a a very interesting story that
0:44:53.810,0:44:59.240
maybe not that interesting to discuss
0:44:55.970,0:45:01.730
here but a cool thing is that usually
0:44:59.240,0:45:07.370
apparently brands as a model in his
0:45:01.730,0:45:09.410
symphonies like f AF fry a bell for yeah
0:45:07.370,0:45:11.660
you read about it it really it really
0:45:09.410,0:45:15.350
spoke to me it was so it's so nice
0:45:11.660,0:45:18.710
Bram's had a friend named Joseph Joe him
0:45:15.350,0:45:22.460
something like that Joakim yeah he had
0:45:18.710,0:45:25.700
the combination of f AE which kind of
0:45:22.460,0:45:29.029
stood for fry a bur ein Sam which means
0:45:25.700,0:45:31.969
free but lonely in German German yeah
0:45:29.029,0:45:36.079
and and a lot of people said that Bram's
0:45:31.969,0:45:39.709
mode of faf is is a fry-up er FRA that
0:45:36.079,0:45:42.169
means free but happy and Bram's was a
0:45:39.709,0:45:44.809
single man throughout his life and and
0:45:42.169,0:45:46.699
he kind of made this brilliant creation
0:45:44.809,0:45:49.939
and in a lot of them
0:45:46.699,0:45:52.459
the motive was kind of like I'm free but
0:45:49.939,0:45:55.369
I'm happy in this in in Bram's
0:45:52.459,0:46:00.169
third it's a bit different because it's
0:45:55.369,0:46:03.619
like F a flat F and it kind of gives
0:46:00.169,0:46:06.279
this whole notion of free but happy this
0:46:03.619,0:46:10.609
really subtle question mark of
0:46:06.279,0:46:15.159
insecurity and I found it like very
0:46:10.609,0:46:19.099
subtle very delicate expression of this
0:46:15.159,0:46:22.459
this really relatable emotion and I
0:46:19.099,0:46:26.749
found I found it wonderful like F a flat
0:46:22.459,0:46:28.869
f that's F minor scale yeah and minor is
0:46:26.749,0:46:32.239
not usually a minor scale is not usually
0:46:28.869,0:46:33.949
connected with being happy so it's it's
0:46:32.239,0:46:37.159
an interesting story I liked it oh yeah
0:46:33.949,0:46:39.979
bidder number one Peter all right my
0:46:37.159,0:46:44.630
number one was a little bit predictable
0:46:39.979,0:46:47.900
but it is Beethoven's fifth so I would
0:46:44.630,0:46:49.880
say this the second movement I'm okay
0:46:47.900,0:46:52.400
with but the first third and fourth I
0:46:49.880,0:46:54.559
just stand outs to me they're my
0:46:52.400,0:46:57.589
favorite movements of all of mums
0:46:54.559,0:47:01.039
classics and I don't know why but the
0:46:57.589,0:47:03.169
first movement reminded me of oompa
0:47:01.039,0:47:06.109
loompa oh why does it remind me of
0:47:03.169,0:47:07.789
olympus I don't I'm not making it claim
0:47:06.109,0:47:09.619
that it's from a movie or anything like
0:47:07.789,0:47:13.429
that but it just happens that sort of
0:47:09.619,0:47:17.269
quirky feel you know it's interesting I
0:47:13.429,0:47:21.229
did it and it kind of goes like a little
0:47:17.269,0:47:23.539
bit lighter and it's very expressive and
0:47:21.229,0:47:26.599
it sort of has like a psychedelic feel
0:47:23.539,0:47:30.380
as well towards towards the end of it
0:47:26.599,0:47:33.169
and it's just very catchy it's very
0:47:30.380,0:47:35.719
catchy for a classic classical music Wow
0:47:33.169,0:47:38.509
yeah pace and yeah it's a little bit
0:47:35.719,0:47:41.989
predictable but it's it's good for a
0:47:38.509,0:47:42.890
reason and as a person it hasn't ever
0:47:41.989,0:47:45.319
listened to it
0:47:42.890,0:47:48.829
its entirety only knew some of the hooks
0:47:45.319,0:47:50.599
is something I'll actually continue to
0:47:48.829,0:47:53.539
listen to which I wouldn't have
0:47:50.599,0:47:55.039
predicted out of this episode and it's
0:47:53.539,0:47:58.940
coming interested to see what else he's
0:47:55.039,0:48:01.849
got you needs to repertoire so that's
0:47:58.940,0:48:03.829
why it's wine number one and I realized
0:48:01.849,0:48:05.809
that we all agreed on our fourth and
0:48:03.829,0:48:08.000
fifth but every single one of our third
0:48:05.809,0:48:11.059
second and first rankings are different
0:48:08.000,0:48:13.490
yeah it is about the fifth symphony
0:48:11.059,0:48:15.079
everyone kind of goes you know when you
0:48:13.490,0:48:16.700
bring it up everyone says oh yeah the
0:48:15.079,0:48:18.890
fifth symphony dah dah dah dah
0:48:16.700,0:48:21.890
but there's so much more to it than that
0:48:18.890,0:48:24.650
so much more um and my first is the
0:48:21.890,0:48:27.170
vortex 9 New World Symphony I don't know
0:48:24.650,0:48:29.809
it just sounds to me like it's the most
0:48:27.170,0:48:32.329
catchy one or a most accessible one
0:48:29.809,0:48:34.910
which you know I always say catchy music
0:48:32.329,0:48:37.460
is not necessarily the best but I don't
0:48:34.910,0:48:39.710
know here with you know classical music
0:48:37.460,0:48:42.799
which is a bit more overwhelming this
0:48:39.710,0:48:44.299
being catchy kind of helped me I think I
0:48:42.799,0:48:46.700
don't know I think that's why I placed
0:48:44.299,0:48:49.089
it in number one but I think each and
0:48:46.700,0:48:51.799
every movement in this Symphony is just
0:48:49.089,0:48:54.349
wonderful you know like I can say that
0:48:51.799,0:48:56.599
also about Beethoven's fifth but but
0:48:54.349,0:48:57.980
here I think it's more pronounced you
0:48:56.599,0:48:59.960
know the first movement takes
0:48:57.980,0:49:02.720
I don't like three minutes to build up
0:48:59.960,0:49:05.599
but then it explodes and it becomes kind
0:49:02.720,0:49:08.299
of grand and dramatic but easy it's it's
0:49:05.599,0:49:11.720
an easy melody to pick up so I think
0:49:08.299,0:49:13.339
it's very accessible for for like new
0:49:11.720,0:49:14.869
listeners and the second movement I
0:49:13.339,0:49:16.880
think is where you can really hear the
0:49:14.869,0:49:19.789
American folk music influences because
0:49:16.880,0:49:21.200
the projects was travelling I think he
0:49:19.789,0:49:24.589
was in America for like three or four
0:49:21.200,0:49:26.930
years and that's where he kind of got to
0:49:24.589,0:49:29.000
know a bunch of American music and I
0:49:26.930,0:49:30.799
think you can really hear it in the main
0:49:29.000,0:49:32.509
theme of the second movement which I'm
0:49:30.799,0:49:35.089
gonna play in a second it always reminds
0:49:32.509,0:49:36.920
me of something that could play in the
0:49:35.089,0:49:38.720
background of a Civil War documentary or
0:49:36.920,0:49:41.000
kind of what I expect little house in
0:49:38.720,0:49:42.829
the Prairie to sound like which I mean
0:49:41.000,0:49:44.240
it in the most positive way by the way I
0:49:42.829,0:49:47.539
don't know what Little House on the
0:49:44.240,0:49:49.130
Prairie really is so I may be off but
0:49:47.539,0:49:50.640
here it is the theme from the second
0:49:49.130,0:50:16.559
movement
0:49:50.640,0:50:19.329
[Music]
0:50:16.559,0:50:21.730
continuing to the third and fourth I
0:50:19.329,0:50:24.069
think each of them has just a bunch of
0:50:21.730,0:50:26.859
hooks a bunch of themes that you can
0:50:24.069,0:50:28.779
easily discern and like we said earlier
0:50:26.859,0:50:31.599
they play a bunch of themes from
0:50:28.779,0:50:33.640
previous movements and this is another
0:50:31.599,0:50:35.049
symphony that I already knew I used to
0:50:33.640,0:50:37.839
listen to it a lot in high school when I
0:50:35.049,0:50:40.690
was studying for tests that also gave it
0:50:37.839,0:50:43.150
kind of a leg up but it surprised me
0:50:40.690,0:50:45.789
that it took the first place for me I
0:50:43.150,0:50:48.009
knew that I liked it but I never liked
0:50:45.789,0:50:49.990
it too much but now I just said and
0:50:48.009,0:50:51.910
listen to it and every time I just like
0:50:49.990,0:50:54.759
had to stop whatever I was doing and
0:50:51.910,0:50:57.279
just enjoy it you know I just played it
0:50:54.759,0:50:59.319
close my eyes and it it's just wonderful
0:50:57.279,0:51:01.269
I think definitely amazing it definitely
0:50:59.319,0:51:03.160
gets bigger and bigger with every
0:51:01.269,0:51:08.710
movement I thought that one yeah it
0:51:03.160,0:51:11.319
slaps I can definitely say that like
0:51:08.710,0:51:12.730
listening to two classical music in the
0:51:11.319,0:51:14.589
last couple of weeks it kind of
0:51:12.730,0:51:16.390
refreshed my eagerness to listen to new
0:51:14.589,0:51:18.369
music have you felt this the same way I
0:51:16.390,0:51:20.289
did actually only recently in the last
0:51:18.369,0:51:22.240
couple of days but recently I've been
0:51:20.289,0:51:24.369
listening to lots of sort of albums from
0:51:22.240,0:51:25.960
artists that I've only only generally
0:51:24.369,0:51:27.640
like one or two songs from I've just
0:51:25.960,0:51:29.769
been listening to full albums after
0:51:27.640,0:51:31.569
getting into this huh yeah has it's been
0:51:29.769,0:51:33.250
a bit of a shake-up for me yeah I don't
0:51:31.569,0:51:35.920
know if it's because you know kind of a
0:51:33.250,0:51:37.240
change of scenery or whatever you know
0:51:35.920,0:51:39.670
just listening to something that's
0:51:37.240,0:51:41.650
completely different this really really
0:51:39.670,0:51:45.099
making me feel refreshed I listen to a
0:51:41.650,0:51:45.670
bunch of new music and I guess right no
0:51:45.099,0:51:47.740
not only
0:51:45.670,0:51:49.630
know there must be some reason why we
0:51:47.740,0:51:51.400
sort of go for me new music and
0:51:49.630,0:51:53.259
sometimes what we don't like because
0:51:51.400,0:51:55.450
when you're listening to new music it's
0:51:53.259,0:51:56.559
a bit of a risk you know like because
0:51:55.450,0:51:58.710
you have the choice of listening to
0:51:56.559,0:52:00.670
something you already know you like or
0:51:58.710,0:52:03.009
something that you don't know anything
0:52:00.670,0:52:06.009
about or know less now than what you
0:52:03.009,0:52:08.319
obviously like already and I don't know
0:52:06.009,0:52:10.150
why but there's something that switches
0:52:08.319,0:52:13.269
on and off for me like some months I'll
0:52:10.150,0:52:14.980
listen to new artists every day and then
0:52:13.269,0:52:17.500
some months it'll just be one artist
0:52:14.980,0:52:19.779
literally for three months I can listen
0:52:17.500,0:52:21.460
to one artist if I like them enough I
0:52:19.779,0:52:23.319
think it's just you get kind of fatigued
0:52:21.460,0:52:26.410
but listen to music it's it's tiring
0:52:23.319,0:52:29.140
does you know it is hiring yes but then
0:52:26.410,0:52:31.630
like sinking into the familiar
0:52:29.140,0:52:34.869
it's kind of hard to get out of its a
0:52:31.630,0:52:37.029
situation that it's easy to sink into so
0:52:34.869,0:52:39.519
when you try to force yourself to listen
0:52:37.029,0:52:41.890
to new things like we did with classical
0:52:39.519,0:52:43.930
music now it kind of to me it makes me
0:52:41.890,0:52:47.319
feel refreshed I go and explore some
0:52:43.930,0:52:49.630
more something I didn't like about this
0:52:47.319,0:52:52.119
last couple of weeks listening to a
0:52:49.630,0:52:53.829
bunch of classical music's is that I've
0:52:52.119,0:52:55.930
never I don't know if you guys
0:52:53.829,0:52:58.029
experienced that but I've never heard so
0:52:55.930,0:53:01.150
many recordings of people coughing in my
0:52:58.029,0:53:02.710
life why um because when you look at
0:53:01.150,0:53:04.450
videos of orchestras playing the
0:53:02.710,0:53:06.700
symphonies in front of an audience on
0:53:04.450,0:53:08.829
YouTube there's always going to be this
0:53:06.700,0:53:10.990
distinct coughing sound and after you
0:53:08.829,0:53:12.940
hear it you can't unnoticed all of the
0:53:10.990,0:53:14.680
coughs and other noises from the crowd
0:53:12.940,0:53:17.200
like I've listened to a bunch of the
0:53:14.680,0:53:19.779
symphonies and I've looked for different
0:53:17.200,0:53:21.940
versions of it because every conductor
0:53:19.779,0:53:24.910
does it a little different like there's
0:53:21.940,0:53:27.339
a version of the fifth symphony by
0:53:24.910,0:53:30.339
Beethoven that I've listened to a couple
0:53:27.339,0:53:32.829
of days ago I think and they just played
0:53:30.339,0:53:35.500
the third and fourth movement a little
0:53:32.829,0:53:37.960
too fast and it lost all the feeling I
0:53:35.500,0:53:39.940
thought so I always try to listen to
0:53:37.960,0:53:41.980
different versions of it to see what
0:53:39.940,0:53:44.289
works what what maybe brings out the
0:53:41.980,0:53:46.509
feelings the most and when you listen to
0:53:44.289,0:53:49.539
two orchestras playing the symphonies in
0:53:46.509,0:53:51.579
front of a live audience you get so much
0:53:49.539,0:53:53.769
coughing from the crowd like between
0:53:51.579,0:53:56.980
movements people don't clap you know to
0:53:53.769,0:53:58.599
not throw off the flow of the music if
0:53:56.980,0:54:00.819
you've ever been to a live symphony a
0:53:58.599,0:54:03.009
live orchestra playing you'll you'll
0:54:00.819,0:54:05.589
know that they you don't clap between
0:54:03.009,0:54:08.650
movements but people do allow themselves
0:54:05.589,0:54:10.960
to cough so the the movement ends and
0:54:08.650,0:54:13.210
instead of collapse you get like a wave
0:54:10.960,0:54:15.759
of coughing it sounds like the crowd has
0:54:13.210,0:54:17.980
the plague or something it's such a
0:54:15.759,0:54:21.009
weird experience I think a couple of
0:54:17.980,0:54:24.039
interesting things to mention our first
0:54:21.009,0:54:26.920
how much those you know those pieces
0:54:24.039,0:54:29.589
that we heard and other classical pieces
0:54:26.920,0:54:32.019
affect today's today's music because
0:54:29.589,0:54:34.269
like there were a lot of parts in in
0:54:32.019,0:54:36.819
those symphonies that you kind of say oh
0:54:34.269,0:54:39.670
wow that that sounds like Superman's
0:54:36.819,0:54:42.350
intro or Indiana Jones or you know one
0:54:39.670,0:54:45.440
of one of those big
0:54:42.350,0:54:47.390
with with those very well-known themes I
0:54:45.440,0:54:50.210
think there's a like the fourth movement
0:54:47.390,0:54:52.160
in Beethoven's fifth sounds like a movie
0:54:50.210,0:54:55.160
score which I've mentioned before and I
0:54:52.160,0:54:57.950
think there's a few minutes in Devore
0:54:55.160,0:55:00.590
Jack's either second or third movement
0:54:57.950,0:55:04.670
which just sound like that you can just
0:55:00.590,0:55:06.740
put them in a star wars I totally agree
0:55:04.670,0:55:09.380
I said they could fit in a Batman sort
0:55:06.740,0:55:12.350
of film like a Batman Batman chase yeah
0:55:09.380,0:55:15.350
delivery delivery the darker points
0:55:12.350,0:55:18.200
another interesting thing I think is is
0:55:15.350,0:55:22.040
why do you think that we all agreed on
0:55:18.200,0:55:25.000
number on the fifth and number four but
0:55:22.040,0:55:27.920
had a completely different opening trio
0:55:25.000,0:55:29.960
all right okay we're all sort of on the
0:55:27.920,0:55:32.210
same page so I feel like we all kind of
0:55:29.960,0:55:36.440
we rank them very similarly in the fact
0:55:32.210,0:55:39.020
that like if like devote Dvorak Brom and
0:55:36.440,0:55:41.810
Beethoven they were all in our top three
0:55:39.020,0:55:43.850
it's not like one of us hated and one of
0:55:41.810,0:55:46.130
us loved them so I feel like we're sort
0:55:43.850,0:55:48.620
of just ranking the bottom two as they
0:55:46.130,0:55:50.180
were I kind of feel like we're in
0:55:48.620,0:55:52.310
agreement so I don't think there's that
0:55:50.180,0:55:55.420
much different disagreement but I think
0:55:52.310,0:55:58.760
to me I ranked mine on just how much
0:55:55.420,0:56:02.180
imagery and emotion it could have pulled
0:55:58.760,0:56:05.510
out of me and obviously like it had a
0:56:02.180,0:56:07.520
bit of a bias towards how much I I I
0:56:05.510,0:56:10.280
listened to them so it had a bit of a
0:56:07.520,0:56:13.610
like a whiff of how catchy it was like
0:56:10.280,0:56:16.340
obviously the more catchier ones yeah I
0:56:13.610,0:56:19.370
listen to you more but I feel like it
0:56:16.340,0:56:22.220
comes down to how directly they
0:56:19.370,0:56:25.100
connected to sort of an emotional colour
0:56:22.220,0:56:27.290
almost what do you guys think it's it's
0:56:25.100,0:56:31.040
like the ones that were a little bit
0:56:27.290,0:56:33.830
more catchy kind of popped to all of us
0:56:31.040,0:56:36.080
which is funny because Muller is one is
0:56:33.830,0:56:38.690
I think at least the first movement and
0:56:36.080,0:56:42.350
the second movement also our very catchy
0:56:38.690,0:56:44.480
but I know maybe they just maybe we all
0:56:42.350,0:56:47.720
just don't feel it as much as we felt
0:56:44.480,0:56:49.670
the the three the top three because we
0:56:47.720,0:56:52.280
all agree that there wasn't one symphony
0:56:49.670,0:56:54.770
here that was boring or not good you
0:56:52.280,0:56:56.140
know like I think Graham's Beethoven's
0:56:54.770,0:56:58.870
and Dvorak
0:56:56.140,0:57:00.880
were a little bit more catchy a little
0:56:58.870,0:57:04.270
bit more accessible a little bit more
0:57:00.880,0:57:06.780
easy on the ear maybe it serves their
0:57:04.270,0:57:10.450
feelings and themes a little bit more
0:57:06.780,0:57:13.180
efficiently so we we think that we both
0:57:10.450,0:57:15.700
picked our top three because they were
0:57:13.180,0:57:18.220
more catchy but why do you think we
0:57:15.700,0:57:20.530
chose differently I mean was it just
0:57:18.220,0:57:24.010
random by chance or so that's what I
0:57:20.530,0:57:26.500
think I think the top three we all of us
0:57:24.010,0:57:28.030
as non experienced classical music
0:57:26.500,0:57:31.210
listeners thought were a bit more catchy
0:57:28.030,0:57:34.330
so we gave them more airtime if you will
0:57:31.210,0:57:36.400
and then it's kind of separated by
0:57:34.330,0:57:38.260
personal preferences because like we'll
0:57:36.400,0:57:40.810
listen to these three more than the
0:57:38.260,0:57:42.790
others maybe if you give these five
0:57:40.810,0:57:45.280
symphonies to someone who already kind
0:57:42.790,0:57:48.610
of knows classical music or maybe even
0:57:45.280,0:57:51.580
an expert maybe maybe the ones that we
0:57:48.610,0:57:54.190
took as top three would be bottom three
0:57:51.580,0:57:56.770
you know because maybe maybe they don't
0:57:54.190,0:57:59.470
rank things by how much they are catchy
0:57:56.770,0:58:01.480
as we did yeah I agree I think like I'm
0:57:59.470,0:58:03.640
sort of on the same page it's unknown
0:58:01.480,0:58:05.200
here where I say the bottom two were
0:58:03.640,0:58:06.790
always going to be the bottom two for me
0:58:05.200,0:58:09.640
and the top three were always going to
0:58:06.790,0:58:11.590
be the top three it's just if I had to
0:58:09.640,0:58:14.140
shuffle anything around it would be the
0:58:11.590,0:58:16.930
top three within themselves so there was
0:58:14.140,0:58:18.580
no way Marla was going to be in the top
0:58:16.930,0:58:21.610
three no way Sibelius was going to be in
0:58:18.580,0:58:24.160
the top three but I could easily see me
0:58:21.610,0:58:26.380
listening to them more and see Dvorak
0:58:24.160,0:58:29.290
was my favorite or Braun was my favorite
0:58:26.380,0:58:31.630
I could easily say that I think I think
0:58:29.290,0:58:33.280
it really was like the catchiness got
0:58:31.630,0:58:37.110
the foot in the door and then after that
0:58:33.280,0:58:40.120
was with with Barry oh it was more about
0:58:37.110,0:58:44.380
his obviously personal connection to it
0:58:40.120,0:58:47.470
for me it was more to do with how sort
0:58:44.380,0:58:50.740
of memorable the movements were and
0:58:47.470,0:58:56.920
Barrio you just went with how loud you
0:58:50.740,0:58:59.440
are playing them well actually with
0:58:56.920,0:59:01.960
yours barrier I feel like the divorce
0:58:59.440,0:59:03.760
axe actually was the loudest in the end
0:59:01.960,0:59:06.010
like it was as you said like sort of
0:59:03.760,0:59:09.760
like a Star Wars theme at the end and
0:59:06.010,0:59:12.640
also your second was Beethoven which was
0:59:09.760,0:59:14.140
quite big and then bronze riches a
0:59:12.640,0:59:16.420
little bit more sort of like a subtle
0:59:14.140,0:59:19.600
feel so I feel like yours got bigger and
0:59:16.420,0:59:22.960
bigger whereas mine got sort of catchy
0:59:19.600,0:59:25.450
yeah yeah definitely right and I just
0:59:22.960,0:59:27.370
want to add that I am going to listen to
0:59:25.450,0:59:28.990
Brahms some more because I'm not as
0:59:27.370,0:59:31.810
familiar with it as I was with
0:59:28.990,0:59:33.700
Beethoven's or Zacks and I think it
0:59:31.810,0:59:35.980
might I don't know I I think I'm gonna
0:59:33.700,0:59:38.320
connect it some more and it might top
0:59:35.980,0:59:40.480
Beethoven's and vortex also yeah and
0:59:38.320,0:59:42.160
Pierre you you went with kind of
0:59:40.480,0:59:44.980
catchiness because like Beethoven's 5th
0:59:42.160,0:59:46.600
is very catchy catchy nasur memorability
0:59:44.980,0:59:48.010
like yeah memorability
0:59:46.600,0:59:52.300
yeah that's probably a better word for
0:59:48.010,0:59:53.890
it yeah like just going over it in your
0:59:52.300,0:59:57.120
head just so I got yeah that was that
0:59:53.890,1:00:00.760
was bit was cool that say anyway I
0:59:57.120,1:00:03.040
really like the fact that you know this
1:00:00.760,1:00:04.990
is what I wanted to do with this podcast
1:00:03.040,1:00:06.880
I wanted to do like take two weeks to
1:00:04.990,1:00:09.070
listen to something have kind of a
1:00:06.880,1:00:10.950
personal experience with it and then
1:00:09.070,1:00:14.020
kind of compared with your experience
1:00:10.950,1:00:17.710
experiences and I think it worked better
1:00:14.020,1:00:19.450
than ever in this episode I honestly
1:00:17.710,1:00:21.460
wish we could just play the entire
1:00:19.450,1:00:25.480
symphonies and talk over them but that
1:00:21.460,1:00:27.070
wouldn't work I kind of want to
1:00:25.480,1:00:29.230
encourage the listeners at home to go
1:00:27.070,1:00:31.810
and listen to some of these at least
1:00:29.230,1:00:35.020
because there is a lot a lot of
1:00:31.810,1:00:37.450
beautiful pieces of music here that like
1:00:35.020,1:00:39.490
even if you're not a huge classical
1:00:37.450,1:00:41.920
music listener or never listened to
1:00:39.490,1:00:43.870
classical music I think there's a bunch
1:00:41.920,1:00:45.730
here that you can take home with you you
1:00:43.870,1:00:47.350
know listening to something different
1:00:45.730,1:00:49.900
for a while like I said really sparked
1:00:47.350,1:00:51.670
new interest in music in me so if you're
1:00:49.900,1:00:54.130
if you're you know the listener at home
1:00:51.670,1:00:55.840
looking for a change or or to listen to
1:00:54.130,1:00:57.930
something in you I recommend giving this
1:00:55.840,1:01:01.090
a shot it totally worked for me and
1:00:57.930,1:01:03.040
other than these five symphonies out of
1:01:01.090,1:01:05.760
my experience I would totally recommend
1:01:03.040,1:01:08.890
listening to Beethoven's first it's
1:01:05.760,1:01:10.630
extremely catchy it's beautiful and it's
1:01:08.890,1:01:13.780
very short it's like listening to a long
1:01:10.630,1:01:16.780
song you know and I think it's just an
1:01:13.780,1:01:19.300
amazing point of entry into this world I
1:01:16.780,1:01:21.970
really I'm really glad that we that we
1:01:19.300,1:01:23.090
did this episode I mean this like for me
1:01:21.970,1:01:26.120
was
1:01:23.090,1:01:28.370
definition of a cultural quest to take
1:01:26.120,1:01:31.700
something that is very is very close and
1:01:28.370,1:01:34.700
kind of dive a bit deeper he definitely
1:01:31.700,1:01:37.850
left him with the taste for more I think
1:01:34.700,1:01:41.480
I only started to scratch the surface of
1:01:37.850,1:01:43.580
of interesting stuff or even from these
1:01:41.480,1:01:47.690
five symphonies alone I think there's a
1:01:43.580,1:01:50.150
lot more to to take in from them so yeah
1:01:47.690,1:01:51.890
I think it was it was a good quest yeah
1:01:50.150,1:01:54.110
we'll definitely be back listening to
1:01:51.890,1:01:55.580
classical music one day I think maybe
1:01:54.110,1:01:57.890
we'll do it round two or something got
1:01:55.580,1:02:07.000
that yeah yeah I'll definitely be into
1:01:57.890,1:02:09.170
that awesome okay so in our next episode
1:02:07.000,1:02:12.590
surprise surprise we're going to be
1:02:09.170,1:02:14.000
something that is a bit different we've
1:02:12.590,1:02:15.800
joked about saying that every episode
1:02:14.000,1:02:17.750
because like we always say we'll do
1:02:15.800,1:02:19.940
something different and then we do a
1:02:17.750,1:02:21.830
documentary movie which was something
1:02:19.940,1:02:24.050
new or we read comic books which we've
1:02:21.830,1:02:25.910
never done before and I kind of think
1:02:24.050,1:02:28.100
that eventually we'll run out of new
1:02:25.910,1:02:30.170
things to do like eventually we will do
1:02:28.100,1:02:33.740
an episode about a famous painting or
1:02:30.170,1:02:35.600
something but this time it's it's really
1:02:33.740,1:02:37.340
something different like the premise of
1:02:35.600,1:02:39.230
the episode and the format of the
1:02:37.340,1:02:40.730
episode is gonna be a little different
1:02:39.230,1:02:43.310
we're going to do something that we're
1:02:40.730,1:02:45.680
going to call a side quest or kind of
1:02:43.310,1:02:47.420
more accurately I went on a side quest
1:02:45.680,1:02:50.630
and I want to talk about it with you
1:02:47.420,1:02:53.350
guys our next episode is the first of
1:02:50.630,1:02:56.330
what may become a series of cyclists
1:02:53.350,1:02:58.130
like next episode instead of all of us
1:02:56.330,1:03:00.350
watching a movie or reading a book or
1:02:58.130,1:03:02.780
something I've been reading up on a
1:03:00.350,1:03:04.330
subject that I find interesting and I'm
1:03:02.780,1:03:06.740
gonna talk to you guys about it
1:03:04.330,1:03:09.020
hopefully we'll learn something new and
1:03:06.740,1:03:11.930
will you know be just a little bit more
1:03:09.020,1:03:13.400
cultured and to make it even more
1:03:11.930,1:03:15.710
different than a usual episode there's
1:03:13.400,1:03:17.270
going to be a visual component to the
1:03:15.710,1:03:19.840
episode I've prepared a presentation
1:03:17.270,1:03:21.680
I'll use it as a visual aid and
1:03:19.840,1:03:23.960
obviously the presentation will be
1:03:21.680,1:03:26.120
available for everyone to see so you can
1:03:23.960,1:03:28.160
follow along as you listen it'll be on
1:03:26.120,1:03:28.850
Google slides which you can open from
1:03:28.160,1:03:31.070
any device
1:03:28.850,1:03:34.160
I think phones tablets computers
1:03:31.070,1:03:35.700
anything and it'll also be in YouTube
1:03:34.160,1:03:36.839
there's a video so you
1:03:35.700,1:03:39.089
be able to check it out there if you
1:03:36.839,1:03:40.770
want and obviously I've prepared things
1:03:39.089,1:03:42.599
in in a way that you can also enjoy it
1:03:40.770,1:03:44.910
just by listening to it as a podcast
1:03:42.599,1:03:46.800
episodes if the visual aids are gonna be
1:03:44.910,1:03:48.869
kind of a bonus you don't have to follow
1:03:46.800,1:03:50.970
along and in order to enjoy the episode
1:03:48.869,1:03:53.280
now the subject i've chosen to talk
1:03:50.970,1:03:57.540
about without giving away too much news
1:03:53.280,1:03:58.589
the Anthropocene or the age of men like
1:03:57.540,1:04:01.470
I said I don't want to give away too
1:03:58.589,1:04:03.450
much but I'll be introducing an idea
1:04:01.470,1:04:05.730
that is somewhat talked about in the
1:04:03.450,1:04:08.940
scientific world in the field of geology
1:04:05.730,1:04:10.619
kind of environmental science I think
1:04:08.940,1:04:12.210
it's gonna be very very interesting like
1:04:10.619,1:04:15.270
it's something I've been reading up and
1:04:12.210,1:04:18.359
kind of following for the last year or
1:04:15.270,1:04:21.119
so and I'd be happy to talk about it
1:04:18.359,1:04:23.430
with you guys I'll do my best to present
1:04:21.119,1:04:25.500
this interesting subject to you guys and
1:04:23.430,1:04:27.510
your job will be to ask me you know
1:04:25.500,1:04:29.280
questions and discuss your thoughts
1:04:27.510,1:04:31.050
about it and I don't know maybe in the
1:04:29.280,1:04:33.089
future we'll do some more of these side
1:04:31.050,1:04:35.670
quests if you guys want to do something
1:04:33.089,1:04:39.000
I know I already have a second subject
1:04:35.670,1:04:40.800
in mind but it's still too early to talk
1:04:39.000,1:04:42.750
about like I'm still trying to see if
1:04:40.800,1:04:44.369
there's enough data about it if there's
1:04:42.750,1:04:47.400
enough info about it to kind of tell
1:04:44.369,1:04:48.930
story yeah so that's what we'll do next
1:04:47.400,1:04:50.190
episode you guys don't have to to
1:04:48.930,1:04:54.450
prepare or anything
1:04:50.190,1:04:55.650
yay yeah and I like I said it's
1:04:54.450,1:04:57.630
something I've been following for a
1:04:55.650,1:05:00.750
while so I think I'm gonna be setting
1:04:57.630,1:05:03.390
the bar really high I'm going to try to
1:05:00.750,1:05:05.210
blow your expectation right now I'm
1:05:03.390,1:05:07.710
gonna be doing the second one I'm dying
1:05:05.210,1:05:10.319
yeah this I think we're starting
1:05:07.710,1:05:13.079
something cool here I think what kind of
1:05:10.319,1:05:15.300
will kind of do these side quests I'm
1:05:13.079,1:05:17.520
not promising anything but every I don't
1:05:15.300,1:05:20.369
know three or four months or so kind of
1:05:17.520,1:05:24.480
depends on our productivity or how much
1:05:20.369,1:05:27.359
we want to put into that but well we'll
1:05:24.480,1:05:29.520
see so thank you Peter and thank you
