| 0:00.0 | The most civilized look. It says plainly that you're still pretty basic. |
| 0:31.0 | Hello listeners. You'll probably hear some reverb, some echo on my voice. It's because my wife and I just bought this enormous 940 square foot home |
| 0:41.0 | that we can't even afford to furnish 940 square feet, which is just I am stunned. People buy three, four thousand, five thousand square feet houses. |
| 0:54.0 | We have been buying used furniture all day. I am in the smallest room in the house and it sounds like I am in a death cavern. |
| 1:02.0 | It is a mansion by LA standards. I am also listeners since I know you care. I am also looking for a house right now with our producer David. |
| 1:12.0 | And every time I send my dad, who lives in like a beautiful farmhouse in Maine, every time I send him a house that I like, he just sends back in all caps like terrible. |
| 1:22.0 | Why does the roof look like that? Why is it so small? There is no yard. That doorway looks weird. |
| 1:28.0 | That might be better though than my parents who are so wonderfully supportive. Yet I'm like on the phone with them as they're talking to me from their 5,000 square foot house. |
| 1:37.0 | And I'm like, yeah, you know, we're like, it's 940 and they're like, that's big. We think that's big. Your father and I know that that is big. I'm like, guys, no, it's not. |
| 1:45.0 | I love you and you're so kind to me and you've helped us so much with this house, but let's just all be honest. It's not a big house. |
| 1:51.0 | And that's fine. Are we still talking about houses or are we talking about houses? |
| 1:55.0 | No, we're talking about something that was much bigger than 900 square feet. |
| 1:59.0 | Oh my god. This movie is the exact opposite of a house in Los Angeles. I can tell you that. |
| 2:05.0 | Well, except it's overpriced. |
| 2:07.0 | It's overpriced and wriggled with problems. So maybe not. We are today talking about a movie that I'm pretty sure Chris is mad at me for making us watch because it is 4 hours and 15 minutes long. |
| 2:21.0 | And that's because we were talking about 1963's Cleopatra. Chris? |
| 2:28.0 | Okay, I'm sorry. I'm going to come out with a hot take at the top. I did not hate this movie. I thought it was going to be really bad based on everything I knew about it. |
| 2:36.0 | I think it's kind of good. I think the first half is pretty good. I could do without Richard Burton, if I'm being honest. |
| 2:42.0 | The first hour is... |
| 2:46.0 | I have my own hot take on this movie that we'll get to with the what went right at the end. |
| 2:50.0 | The first hour is the best hour, which is hard when you're watching a four hour movie. |
| 2:55.0 | It's when you peak pretty early and then you're just waiting for everyone to die. |
