| 0:00.0 | What is up, you spooky bitches? We are back with another episode of the Hello Sydney podcast. You're a podcast for horror lovers where we discuss any and all things horror and it's me, your girl, Sydney. Happy Friday. Happy almost end of February, the shortest month. Yet for some reason, it always feels so long, probably because it's so damn fucking cold. I am so over it. I am ready to get into |
| 0:22.2 | March because even though March is still really cold here, I feel like March is at least the home |
| 0:26.7 | stretch. Like I am ready. Let's get this over with. Also, let's get this month over with because |
| 0:32.5 | my God, after having to watch a racer head again, i'm fucking tired i'm tired i again like the first |
| 0:40.9 | half of movies this month like i feel like the first few i'm like oh wow i appreciate this more |
| 0:45.4 | this is great and then i got into rosemary's baby and then i had to do a racer head which doing |
| 0:51.3 | those two in the same week that was was my mistake. That was my mistake. |
| 0:54.8 | I'm fucking tired. I feel like I have so much to say, but nothing to say at all. What I am going to say |

| 1:22.8 | I think I can usually find like hidden meanings and kind of understand certain things and get creative |
| 1:28.9 | with how to interpret things until I watch a David Lynch movie and suddenly I am the stupidest |
| 1:34.9 | person on the face of the fucking earth. I have no fucking idea what this man is trying to say with |
| 1:39.4 | a racer head. And I just want to be very clear. I think David Lynch is a brilliant filmmaker. |
| 1:45.1 | I think David Lynch, rest in peace king, I think David Lynch transcended the human plane of thought. |
| 1:55.0 | I think he was so beyond the human plane of cognition. |
| 2:05.2 | I genuinely think he went beyond that. And for that reason, |
| 2:10.7 | I have no fucking idea what this man is trying to say in his movies. And that's fine. |
| 2:16.0 | Like, just because I don't understand it, just because it's not good to me does not mean it's a bad movie. I respect the fuck out of |
