It's only your head, and now
it's online Bible this stylecom yes, motions
2
00:00:10.550 --> 00:00:18.589
with Bible style. Hey, what's
up? How you been? And happy
3
00:00:18.789 --> 00:00:23.140
fucking New Year. We made it
one more year. I know a lot
4
00:00:23.179 --> 00:00:28.379
of my friends don't like to celebrate
New Year's quote unquote, the to hit
5
00:00:28.539 --> 00:00:32.579
for it, too old for it, too lazy for it, whatever time
6
00:00:32.740 --> 00:00:36.170
is just to construct all that whole
shit. But you know what, it's
7
00:00:36.170 --> 00:00:40.450
kind of cool when everybody around the
world is kind of doing the same thing
8
00:00:41.090 --> 00:00:43.810
at the same time. In a
way it's kind of cool, you got
9
00:00:43.890 --> 00:00:47.810
to admit and like when you go
to a movie in a theater versus watching
10
00:00:47.890 --> 00:00:51.840
it on Netflix. That's why people
go to movies and theaters. There's a
11
00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:58.240
Camaraderia community sitting together and doing the
same thing at the same time. Why
12
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:02.520
do you think people still call radio
stations and request that stupid song that they
13
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:06.870
can get anywhere? It's because they
want to make sure everybody else is hearing
14
00:01:06.909 --> 00:01:11.709
the same song they're hearing at the
same time they're hearing it. So I
15
00:01:11.829 --> 00:01:15.510
think that's the NEAT thing about New
Year in general is we're all experiencing it
16
00:01:15.870 --> 00:01:19.459
and more than that, acknowledging it
at the same time. Together, whether
17
00:01:19.540 --> 00:01:23.780
you like to acknowledge it or don't, you're still acknowledging it. Happy fucking
18
00:01:23.819 --> 00:01:32.969
New Year. Join the party.
Add Bipolar Partycom that said, it has
19
00:01:33.090 --> 00:01:38.849
been a really trying year for me. Twenty eight team was tough. I
20
00:01:38.969 --> 00:01:45.969
took on roll as a Hotel Director
for a nonprofit that manages housing for the
21
00:01:46.049 --> 00:01:51.400
homeless, you know, freshly homeless
and war vets and things like that.
22
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:56.400
Really tough. Not For me,
not with that organization. A lot of
23
00:01:56.439 --> 00:02:00.510
the tenants thought that the owner of
the building was a slum Lord, as
24
00:02:00.549 --> 00:02:07.469
they say, and I haven't found
anything personally to discount that notion. So
25
00:02:08.469 --> 00:02:15.539
whatever. One of my favorite quotes
is from churchhill. If you're going through
26
00:02:15.659 --> 00:02:27.780
hell, keep going. So I
kept going. I'm not going to stay
27
00:02:27.819 --> 00:02:30.889
there if I'm not welcome. You
know, fuck that. Kick around somebody
28
00:02:30.930 --> 00:02:35.409
else. I'm not going to be
the face of their failures. It's not
29
00:02:35.610 --> 00:02:39.849
my deal. and which is weird
because when you have bipolar disorder you tend
30
00:02:39.889 --> 00:02:44.479
to apply for interesting jobs, jobs
where you think you could actually help people,
31
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:46.680
and then, when they don't work
out, because it's a high risk
32
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:51.400
venture to begin with, people think, oh, he's bipolar, he got
33
00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:54.599
fired because he's bipolar. Well,
maybe I did, but I also stood
34
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:58.909
up for what was right and I
can live with myself. So that's important.
35
00:02:59.590 --> 00:03:02.270
So if the past year I was
in the suburbs of the San Francisco
36
00:03:02.270 --> 00:03:08.349
Bay area and then I was in
the heart of downtown San Francisco, really
37
00:03:08.389 --> 00:03:15.699
high crime, Grimy, poor neighborhood
called the tenderloin, and now I'm in
38
00:03:15.819 --> 00:03:21.139
Louisiana. I'm from California, but
I think Louisiana's a pretty neat place.
39
00:03:21.219 --> 00:03:29.370
So fresh air, cheap rent,
friendly people, Wide Open Space, Oh
40
00:03:29.610 --> 00:03:35.530
and no feces on the sidewalk.
I love my favorite part. So goodbye
41
00:03:35.610 --> 00:03:42.840
tenderloin, Hello Shreveport. That's that's
my big news for today. Personally took
42
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:46.639
a train ride from San Francisco down
to Los Angeles, and Los Angeles across
43
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:53.080
Arizona, New Mexico Texas, all
the way up to Longview Texas, opt
44
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:57.629
little bus to streveport. Had some
good friends of mine, Anica and Patty,
45
00:03:57.710 --> 00:04:01.389
picked me up and let me stay
there their place. They have awesome
46
00:04:01.430 --> 00:04:05.189
place for my studio and giving me
some breathing room to get on my feet
47
00:04:06.270 --> 00:04:12.419
when to start a podcasting company in
streeport. How about that? Because while
48
00:04:12.419 --> 00:04:17.339
I like to say I'm not a
mental health activist or advocate, fucking a
49
00:04:18.100 --> 00:04:24.889
am a podcasting advocate. So if
you want to make your own podcasts,
50
00:04:25.649 --> 00:04:28.970
especially in this realm where you like
not sure you want to tell anybody you
51
00:04:29.089 --> 00:04:32.850
have a mental disorder, then get
ahold of me. I'll keep your confidence
52
00:04:32.930 --> 00:04:36.970
and show you how to make podcasts. Because, you know, throughout the
53
00:04:38.170 --> 00:04:42.480
history of the bipolar style show,
the whole yearlong ish history of the show,
54
00:04:43.160 --> 00:04:46.279
I've had some cool guests, but
getting guests is hard. When you
55
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:48.800
run a show by yourself, it's
just fucking hard. You have to do
56
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:53.670
everything. And I'm into like the
other stuff too. I'm into graphic design
57
00:04:53.829 --> 00:04:57.550
and audio production, so I like
that part, but gathering guests, that
58
00:04:57.910 --> 00:05:00.230
was hard and that kind of kept
me focused on like, well, Shit,
59
00:05:00.269 --> 00:05:03.550
and now I just have to talk
by myself or fucking ten or fifteen
60
00:05:03.550 --> 00:05:06.500
minute. That's lame. I don't
I don't like listening to podcast where people
61
00:05:06.540 --> 00:05:11.699
just talk, talk, talk,
whatever. So I'm thinking, well,
62
00:05:11.699 --> 00:05:14.699
I wouldn't listen to it. Who
the fuck else is going to listen to
63
00:05:14.819 --> 00:05:18.779
it? I'm so turns out you
listen to it, and so I love
64
00:05:18.860 --> 00:05:23.889
it. I appreciate you and thank
you. So for two thousand and nineteen.
65
00:05:23.930 --> 00:05:29.529
I'm going to do way better for
the bipolar style show. For one,
66
00:05:30.089 --> 00:05:34.250
I'm going to eliminate all of the
other side projects, my personal podcast,
67
00:05:34.370 --> 00:05:41.600
and going to put them on ice
and focus on bipolar style proper.
68
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.759
Don't worry, I won't get bored
because I'm starting a podcasting company, remember,
69
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:51.589
so I'll have actual other kind of
clients that I'll help produce podcast of
70
00:05:51.629 --> 00:05:58.990
all sorts. I have two industries
already talking to making podcast for them and
71
00:05:59.990 --> 00:06:02.069
that'll be that. But if you
have a podcast about mental health, mental
72
00:06:02.110 --> 00:06:05.620
illness, whatever, get ahold of
me through the show, through twitter,
73
00:06:06.060 --> 00:06:12.459
email, whatever, and I'll fucking
help you do it all. My theory
74
00:06:12.620 --> 00:06:15.899
is that if I keep doing this
I'll get really good at it and eventually
75
00:06:15.899 --> 00:06:17.259
I'll make money at it. So
I'm not trying to make money with this
76
00:06:17.500 --> 00:06:21.569
bipolar style podcast. That's why we
don't have ads, and I'm not trying
77
00:06:21.569 --> 00:06:26.089
to really make money off of your
podcast, because how do you do that?
78
00:06:26.250 --> 00:06:29.970
I'm not like a record executive at
a record label trying to sign up
79
00:06:29.970 --> 00:06:33.439
to late at Sta no, but
I can help you. If you're a
80
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:39.519
mental health person, for sure will
get past the stigma and do your fucking
81
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:42.519
thing, tell your story, make
your project. If you've always wanted to
82
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:45.439
make a podcast, I can break
it down for you. So it's super
83
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.029
easy and we'll get that taken care
of. Okay, cool. So maybe
84
00:06:48.069 --> 00:06:51.069
that's a thing for two thousand and
nineteen for you, I mean not for
85
00:06:51.189 --> 00:06:55.550
me. I've already committed it.
That's my thing for two thousand and nineteen,
86
00:06:55.589 --> 00:07:01.060
helping you make your podcast and helping
small businesses and different industries make podcasts
87
00:07:01.459 --> 00:07:03.899
where they pay me for that help. So I can just be a full
88
00:07:03.939 --> 00:07:09.379
time podcaster. That sounds lovely,
especially if I can do it from where
89
00:07:09.420 --> 00:07:13.500
I am now, in the middle
of a nice forest up on a hill,
90
00:07:13.540 --> 00:07:17.449
a river off into the distance,
plenty of room to move around.
91
00:07:17.569 --> 00:07:21.529
It feels like I'm kind of like
in a mental hospital out in the sticks,
92
00:07:23.610 --> 00:07:27.529
but everybody's leaving me alone and they
get the podcast. It's it's fucking
93
00:07:27.610 --> 00:07:31.000
cool. So my dad was staying
at my place for a while waiting for
94
00:07:31.319 --> 00:07:35.519
his room to open up for his
apartment or whatever. My Dad's like elderly
95
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:42.240
style guy, not bipolar style,
elderly style. When to make a podcast
96
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:46.470
for old people called elderly style.
Anyway, I got him situated. He's
97
00:07:46.509 --> 00:07:53.949
fine. He's up back at Lake
Tahoe, you know, regular kind of
98
00:07:53.990 --> 00:07:58.189
looks pretty new actually, like built
in the two thousands, modern architecture,
99
00:07:58.699 --> 00:08:03.220
contemporary fixings like Internet and cable and
stuff like that. Lives with the bunch
100
00:08:03.259 --> 00:08:07.300
of old people like himself and they
can all share their stories with each other
101
00:08:07.339 --> 00:08:11.660
as if they were new stories,
which is cool. It's good thing,
102
00:08:11.699 --> 00:08:15.850
though, he was driving me fucking
crazy. taught me a lot about guests
103
00:08:15.970 --> 00:08:18.329
and how to be a guest.
So it tripped me out that he had
104
00:08:18.410 --> 00:08:22.490
no ambition. He lives the life
of a house plant. He just sits
105
00:08:22.529 --> 00:08:28.480
there and saps up the sun coming
in the window and watches MSNBC all day.
106
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:30.680
They might go out and get some
food once in a while, but
107
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:35.000
it comes right back to that spot
and just blew my mind, like you
108
00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:39.639
fucking move. Ever, then I
realized, man, maybe it being a
109
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:41.429
kind of a Dick, but I
kind of was, but I kind of
110
00:08:41.549 --> 00:08:46.990
wasn't, because that was not the
plan. He didn't come down to like
111
00:08:46.350 --> 00:08:48.909
sit in my place and wait for
his own apartment to open up. We
112
00:08:48.990 --> 00:08:54.309
had a whole different plan. So, anyway, I have issues with unmet
113
00:08:54.470 --> 00:08:58.700
expectations to begin with, and then
to just see a dude sitting in your
114
00:08:58.740 --> 00:09:03.139
apartment like a house plant with no
ambition, like off, what the fuck?
115
00:09:03.539 --> 00:09:05.179
And then I start think, well, that's my dad. I am
116
00:09:05.179 --> 00:09:09.220
I going to turn out like that? Oh boy, oh well, so
117
00:09:09.620 --> 00:09:13.610
I'm not going to turn out like
that. I have this insatiable drive to
118
00:09:13.769 --> 00:09:18.490
thrive and overcome. So two thousand
and eighteen was neat because I learned about
119
00:09:18.610 --> 00:09:26.919
Dr Adler, Dr Alfred Adler,
who, if you didn't know, was
120
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:31.279
the third doctor in the Vienna School
of Psychology. Everybody knows about Freud.
121
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:37.559
You probably know about young, with
the J Jung Young. You know.
122
00:09:37.950 --> 00:09:41.950
You know about Freud, you know
about young, but did you know about
123
00:09:41.990 --> 00:09:46.389
addler? I think of it like
the dude from guns n' roses, the
124
00:09:46.509 --> 00:09:50.269
original drummer, Steven Adler. Anyway, there's no relation, but think of
125
00:09:50.350 --> 00:09:56.700
it that way. Outfred Adler and
his personal psychology has studied all about that.
126
00:09:56.779 --> 00:10:00.259
In two thousand and eighteen, in
my mind is blown. I feel
127
00:10:00.259 --> 00:10:03.059
like, Oh my God, I
can almost fix myself with this newfound knowledge.
128
00:10:05.139 --> 00:10:07.809
So, if you want to check
out a good book from the library
129
00:10:07.889 --> 00:10:11.330
or find it cheap on the Internet
something, check out this book called the
130
00:10:11.409 --> 00:10:18.850
courage to be disliked. It's a
conversation between a mentor and a mentee about
131
00:10:18.970 --> 00:10:22.519
individual psychology, as based on Alfred
Adler, told in a kind of a
132
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:30.600
storytelle story, kind of fashion,
easy read, mind blowing concepts. But
133
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:33.080
yeah, if you're going to read
something that that changed my life in two
134
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:43.309
thousand and eighteen really that and an
acid trip. Yeah, I took some
135
00:10:43.470 --> 00:10:46.629
acid. Not saying much more,
but I found someone I took some and
136
00:10:46.830 --> 00:10:52.980
during this trip I realized the recurring
theme was you already have everything you need.
137
00:10:52.899 --> 00:10:58.460
You already have everything you need,
and I'm like, Whoa? Like
138
00:10:58.340 --> 00:11:01.259
anything, it's all on this planet, right here where I was put.
139
00:11:01.820 --> 00:11:05.450
You need more money, there's right
over there. Go get some more money.
140
00:11:05.450 --> 00:11:09.129
You can need more oxygen or more
shelter or more human these all there.
141
00:11:09.289 --> 00:11:13.250
The whole world has everything we need
in it. So it was a
142
00:11:13.289 --> 00:11:18.370
lot more relaxing to me and I
chilled out a bit started gaining more focus,
143
00:11:18.570 --> 00:11:22.240
considering I already have everything I need. What do I want to do
144
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.840
with what I have, and it
came down to, honestly, podcasting.
145
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:28.799
I fucking love podcasting. Why?
I don't like to hear myself talk,
146
00:11:28.879 --> 00:11:31.559
but I like the idea of storytelling
and getting others to share their stories.
147
00:11:33.110 --> 00:11:37.549
So that's that's, in a nutshell, the past kind of year. The
148
00:11:37.669 --> 00:11:43.190
addler at Larry and psychology, finding
my dad a place to be and trying
149
00:11:43.230 --> 00:11:48.980
to work out make a nonprofit SRO
hotel much better than it can be,
150
00:11:50.460 --> 00:11:52.940
to no avail. That was kind
of a fail on my part, but
151
00:11:52.379 --> 00:11:54.860
lessons learned. You know, you
do what you can do. Oh and
152
00:11:54.940 --> 00:12:01.809
here's one thing that's kind of sucked. Earlier in the year at Bipolar Partycom
153
00:12:01.250 --> 00:12:05.809
a couple of the guests got on
my ass for something I said or did,
154
00:12:05.649 --> 00:12:09.929
whatever was. They are off base
with the details, but the fact
155
00:12:09.970 --> 00:12:15.330
that one person said it and another
person backed them out. Like you know,
156
00:12:15.370 --> 00:12:18.000
I'm not going to kick people out
of the group because they criticize me,
157
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.320
their name calling and some kind of
crass things, but whatever, point
158
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:24.879
being, I take criticism to heart. It takes a while to suck it
159
00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:28.440
up and try to figure out what
they really mean, because oftentimes when you
160
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:33.750
critique somebody or throw out name calling, obviously that's that's not helpful because I
161
00:12:33.750 --> 00:12:39.429
can't discern what that what's in that. But when people say you're an egotistical
162
00:12:39.470 --> 00:12:43.029
or whatever, after check my ego, if they say you're an Asshole,
163
00:12:43.070 --> 00:12:46.139
after figure out what what have I
done to make them think I'm an asshole?
164
00:12:46.740 --> 00:12:48.740
So the long and short of it, I just stopped going to the
165
00:12:48.779 --> 00:12:52.620
group for a while. Becky from
that B word podcast does a great job
166
00:12:52.620 --> 00:12:58.539
at cohosting the group anyway, and
she's a good middle ground and I just
167
00:12:58.570 --> 00:13:01.690
figured in two thousand and eighteen I
would grow up and not engage every criticism
168
00:13:01.690 --> 00:13:07.289
against me and just step back and
let it breathe. I heard a quote
169
00:13:07.330 --> 00:13:11.649
from Walt Disney, something to the
effect of sometimes when you get kicked in
170
00:13:11.730 --> 00:13:13.399
the teeth, it takes a while
for you understand that that was the best
171
00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:18.759
thing that happened to you. So
the idea that you know sometimes criticism were
172
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:22.840
things that seem like they heard at
the moment are good for you, causes
173
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:26.639
you to think. So, yeah, I started thinking anyway, it's just
174
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:28.029
part of my campaign of being a
less of an asshole. I don't know
175
00:13:28.110 --> 00:13:33.230
exactly the specifics. Sometimes people get
wound up because, hey, we all
176
00:13:33.230 --> 00:13:37.029
have bipolar disorder and many others.
So I just chocked it up. Is
177
00:13:37.110 --> 00:13:41.500
that too? I mean it's a
group for bipolar it's called Bipolar Party.
178
00:13:41.500 --> 00:13:45.299
There's going to be fucking people acting
out of line, and not out of
179
00:13:45.340 --> 00:13:48.779
a line, how do you say
it? They'll miss a line with each
180
00:13:48.779 --> 00:13:52.700
other, like nobody's really out of
line, just sometimes we miss a line
181
00:13:52.740 --> 00:13:56.009
with each other and it causes a
rift. So anyway, I stepped out
182
00:13:56.049 --> 00:13:58.929
of that group for a while.
I'll be back at bipolar party in two
183
00:13:58.970 --> 00:14:03.929
thousand and nineteen. Don't you worry. You got not the fuck out.
184
00:14:03.009 --> 00:14:09.080
Man, give me my gut him
what payback? Some mother gaming, because
185
00:14:09.080 --> 00:14:13.200
you know that's a hangout for other
bipolar podcast for example Becky at that B
186
00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:20.639
word, Brian Ats bipolar belief and
Jim at the bipolar pod. So there's
187
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.990
some cool podcasters hanging out there.
If you want to be a podcaster and
188
00:14:24.110 --> 00:14:28.389
you want to hang out with mental
health kind of folks, go to bipolar
189
00:14:28.590 --> 00:14:33.230
Partycom and I'll see you there in
a few weeks. Okay, so that
190
00:14:33.350 --> 00:14:35.710
whole thing kind of rounds out to
this moment now. So I'm glad you
191
00:14:35.789 --> 00:14:41.940
stayed around this far, because I've
got exciting news, aside from getting my
192
00:14:41.019 --> 00:14:45.539
shit together more with the podcast for
two thousand and nineteen, make it it
193
00:14:45.659 --> 00:14:48.980
more regular, getting up on the
facebook, putting all the pieces together that
194
00:14:50.059 --> 00:14:54.009
I've been hesitant to, you know, address just because of one guy.
195
00:14:54.330 --> 00:14:56.250
You know, not too much time
on my hands. I'm going to work
196
00:14:56.289 --> 00:15:01.570
on that stuff, but I'm going
to have some help. That's right,
197
00:15:03.450 --> 00:15:05.730
there's going to be a cohost.
I'm totally stoked. How did this come
198
00:15:05.809 --> 00:15:09.440
about? Well, I'm not telling
you much about the person. That's the
199
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:13.879
surprise. You're going to fucking love
it. But it's a big enough change
200
00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:22.350
where I'm altering the logo. Emo
Joe will change. Look for that and
201
00:15:22.549 --> 00:15:26.990
this person, because you remember,
if you listen to this show last the
202
00:15:26.990 --> 00:15:28.789
last episode, I basically said,
Hey, I'm not going to really do
203
00:15:28.789 --> 00:15:31.590
these unless anybody signs up to be
on the show. Well, like I
204
00:15:31.629 --> 00:15:35.629
said, people don't like this volunteer
to be on the show, especially with
205
00:15:35.740 --> 00:15:39.059
somebody like me who'll talk over you
and is hyper and whatever. So that's
206
00:15:39.340 --> 00:15:41.379
I'm like, well, fuck it. It's a good way to kind of
207
00:15:41.940 --> 00:15:48.899
passive aggressively kill the show. Just
do that. Well, somebody reached out.
208
00:15:48.340 --> 00:15:50.450
Like I always say, if you
want to do your own reach out,
209
00:15:50.450 --> 00:15:56.370
I'll help. Well, somebody reached
out in that context and this person
210
00:15:56.610 --> 00:16:03.570
had some ideas for podcast and they
were bouncing them off a third person and
211
00:16:03.809 --> 00:16:07.559
like many projects, the third person
who I don't know and whatever, but
212
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:10.840
it's similar to many project have been
part of. There's always one person that
213
00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:12.240
wants to do a thing, or
claims to want to do a thing,
214
00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:17.200
but there's always an excuse why the
thing doesn't get done. Like a lot
215
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:18.590
of people, I think just like
planning, they like to be in the
216
00:16:18.629 --> 00:16:22.549
planning stage so that it never actually
gets accomplished. If you never ship your
217
00:16:22.669 --> 00:16:27.590
idea, you can never ship your
product. Then nobody can ever criticize you,
218
00:16:27.710 --> 00:16:32.669
and I think people find comfort in
the idea that they'll never be criticized
219
00:16:32.710 --> 00:16:34.940
if they're constantly working on the thing. No, fuck that, it's not
220
00:16:36.059 --> 00:16:38.580
my personality. Let's make a thing, see if people like it, and
221
00:16:38.659 --> 00:16:42.019
if they do, cool, ask
him what they like about it and fix
222
00:16:42.059 --> 00:16:45.899
it, make it even better.
If they don't like it, stop making
223
00:16:45.899 --> 00:16:48.929
the thing and move on. We're
creative people. We can come up with
224
00:16:48.049 --> 00:16:51.929
new ideas. It's not a big
deal. Just fucking think of something new
225
00:16:52.009 --> 00:16:56.330
to do. So this listener had
apparently found one of those people right and
226
00:16:56.450 --> 00:17:02.000
I'm instantly like empathize right away.
I'm like, Oh boy, I don't
227
00:17:02.039 --> 00:17:04.559
know how to help you with that
situation. So I listen more to what
228
00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:11.119
this person was indicating they wanted to
do and the ideas, but more importantly,
229
00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:15.000
I was checking out the energy,
which turned about to be like mine.
230
00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:18.589
This person is bipolar in the same
way that I'm bipolar. We're hardly
231
00:17:18.670 --> 00:17:22.230
ever depressed. We don't like to
focus on the depression at all. There's
232
00:17:22.230 --> 00:17:27.390
plenty of people with unipolar like just
depression. Fine, do that, because
233
00:17:27.509 --> 00:17:32.059
we are manning that. They don't
have talk shows for just mania. So
234
00:17:32.700 --> 00:17:37.099
we like the bipolar podcast that feature
people like us that are upbeat, their
235
00:17:37.339 --> 00:17:41.539
fast and like. You get it
if you have bipolar disorder, you fucking
236
00:17:41.579 --> 00:17:44.849
get what I'm saying right now.
So I found another one of us,
237
00:17:44.890 --> 00:17:48.089
or this person found me, let's
say. We ran over list of ideas
238
00:17:48.170 --> 00:17:51.369
and before long, I mean I'm
thinking, man, I just kind of
239
00:17:52.009 --> 00:17:57.410
passive aggressively iced the bipolar style show. This person would be the perfect catalyst
240
00:17:57.569 --> 00:18:02.960
to relaunch it and make it a
whole new fucking thing, like way different,
241
00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:11.680
like not just incrementally, we're talking
exponentially better show. HMM, but
242
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:15.630
like is that appropriate to say no, I'm not going to help you with
243
00:18:15.710 --> 00:18:21.470
your project, but it's you want
to help me with my project? I
244
00:18:21.549 --> 00:18:25.470
can't tell you exactly how that conversation
went, but the long and the short
245
00:18:25.509 --> 00:18:32.019
of it that person is going to
be the cohost for bipolar style starting the
246
00:18:32.140 --> 00:18:37.619
next episode. So next episode,
we'll call it episode zero for season two
247
00:18:37.619 --> 00:18:41.329
thousand and nineteen, and it will
feature this person's origin story, you know,
248
00:18:41.529 --> 00:18:45.569
like I like to think of all
of us as superheroes in a way,
249
00:18:45.089 --> 00:18:51.089
and we'll want to know this person's
origin story and how they got to
250
00:18:51.210 --> 00:18:56.119
where they are on the mic next
to me at the fantastic bipolar style studios.
251
00:18:57.119 --> 00:19:00.680
So that's exciting. I'm totally stoked
about that. Give me a new
252
00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:06.480
focus, a new lease on life. Sometimes you just cross paths with people
253
00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:10.309
that run at the same speed and
things work out. So you never know.
254
00:19:10.470 --> 00:19:12.509
Nothing's forever. We don't know my
I said, you know what,
255
00:19:12.950 --> 00:19:17.950
then, I want to build like
the coolest podcast for bipolar people ever.
256
00:19:17.990 --> 00:19:22.710
I wanted to be like the Metallica
of bipolar podcast and then I started thinking,
257
00:19:22.710 --> 00:19:26.220
well, there aren't really that money
bipolar podcast and none of them are
258
00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:30.099
trying to be the metallica of bipolar
podcast. They're trying to be like the
259
00:19:30.140 --> 00:19:34.500
Dave Matthews Band of bipolar podcast,
the Endya of bipolar podcast, and like
260
00:19:34.660 --> 00:19:41.329
no, I want to be like
the metallica of bipolar podcasts. I can
261
00:19:41.410 --> 00:19:47.170
dream, all right. So,
Hey, I found this. In Louisiana
262
00:19:47.650 --> 00:19:51.690
they've got drive through daiquiri shops.
You can drive your car through the back
263
00:19:51.769 --> 00:19:56.279
of the liquor store and there's a
window like at a bank and Change.
264
00:19:56.400 --> 00:19:57.559
There you go. You can put
some money in the thing and the lady
265
00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:02.400
will hand you out a freshly made
Daiquiri. The one I got tonight has
266
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:07.670
what he call it stuff ever clear. It's like a hundred ninety proof.
267
00:20:08.589 --> 00:20:11.430
Sounds like a mess. I've had
a couple sips of it and thank God
268
00:20:11.509 --> 00:20:15.789
the brain freeze load me down because
it's kind of buzzy. It's lots of
269
00:20:15.869 --> 00:20:18.990
liquor in there. Don't worry,
I'll be fine. I don't drink a
270
00:20:18.069 --> 00:20:22.380
much, ever, and I'm not
planning on getting super wasted tonight. I
271
00:20:22.460 --> 00:20:29.660
just wanted to taste my first official
Louisiana Daqiri, so that's exciting. Ever,
272
00:20:29.779 --> 00:20:33.019
clear in a Daquerie. Come on, man, stoke though to go,
273
00:20:33.140 --> 00:20:37.690
relax, do the little countdown.
Wake up tomorrow. Hit the ground
274
00:20:37.730 --> 00:20:40.210
running. Like I said, man, if you want to do a podcast,
275
00:20:40.730 --> 00:20:44.930
hit me up bipolar stylecom. I'm
building a new website to go with
276
00:20:45.009 --> 00:20:47.569
this whole change for two thousand and
nineteen. Yeah, I'm pretty stoked.
277
00:20:47.569 --> 00:20:52.359
I think you will be too once
you hear what's happening. That's it's all
278
00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:55.720
I've got, man, I've talked
long enough. You have a wonderful night.
279
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:57.519
I'm glad you're still here with us. If you were feeling depressed and
280
00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:02.079
just happen to find this show,
fucking high fives, go over to bipolar
281
00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:04.589
partycom right now and sign up,
just, you know, stay with us.
282
00:21:04.589 --> 00:21:08.269
If you were depressed, I know
we used to do Bridge Watch angels
283
00:21:08.269 --> 00:21:11.190
and San Francisco, where we would
walk the bridge at Christmas and New Year's.
284
00:21:11.190 --> 00:21:15.710
Because lots of people want to end
it all. Man, don't do
285
00:21:15.869 --> 00:21:18.420
that. You're here with us.
Stay focused. Two Thousand and nineteen is
286
00:21:18.460 --> 00:21:22.099
going to kick ass. We're already
weird as the rest of the world to
287
00:21:22.299 --> 00:21:26.500
tior rates and turns, the chaos. We already know what that's like.
288
00:21:26.700 --> 00:21:30.380
So we've got a headstart and I
think if we stick together, things going
289
00:21:30.420 --> 00:21:33.930
to be pretty Badass for us.
So head tight, listen to the next
290
00:21:34.009 --> 00:21:37.289
episode. We're going to do episode
zero for two thousand, two thousand and
291
00:21:37.329 --> 00:21:41.690
nineteen season, and that will be
the origin story of my new cohost,
292
00:21:42.490 --> 00:21:48.400
who I'm not telling you anything else
about, COOL CHAP
