I still have things like that happen on occasion.

I'll be uninvited to something.

I never want to be in a room where I am not wanted, though.

I think what is sad is that in order to survive, some of these things become normalized for us.

And this is the life that we're, this is, you know, I was, I was thinking back to that, you know, saying

that I didn't know when people said my name who they were talking about. And now I'm like,

oh, no, I'm Dylan fucking Mulvaney. That is so cool. You are Monica fucking Lewinsky. Hi.

I'm so excited you're here.

It's happening.

It's happening.

I know.

People who have been listening to reclaiming since the beginning, so like 50 plus episodes ago,

will remember that when Alan Cumming was on, he was saying that you were the perfect guest

for this show, which you are, and finally now we've been able to make it. I think he might have

called you, we, Dylan Mulvaney. Oh, we did. We lassie. We lassieie. We lassie. We, Dylan Mulvaney. I think if you had told me that, like, when I was like 10 years old watching Spy Kids, I wouldn't have believed you. And it's also so funny because I think everyone has a different version of Allen coming that they love in their heads. And so mine was very much spy kids. And then it was Romie and Michelle,

which is like my addiction. And hopefully we're getting a second Romeo Michelle movie.

I mean, that's what it sounded like at his walk of fame star unveiling thing. But that's where

we finally got to meet. What a moment where in like he's up there on this stage giving a speech and I

looked over and we made eye contact and we waved to each other. And I was like, oh, this is the

perfect place to finally connect. Yeah, yeah. Well, let me properly welcome you to reclaiming Dylan.

Thank you. Yes, I remember that moment. And I was, because we, we've been like social media friends. Yes. For a while. And I've wanted to be on this for a long time. I know. We've been in talks to try to make it happen. And now feels like a really perfect time. It does. In many ways. You are, you are in a very exciting place.

Exciting seeming to me. Yes, no.
