| 0:04.3 | Non-fidgety. |
| 0:05.1 | That's all I'm thinking about. |
| 1:10.9 | I'm Adam Manus. And you're listening to the You'll Hearer Podcast. Daily Jazz Advice coming out, you. Now, what are you talking about non-fidgety, man? Well, I was going to propose that we have a no-fidget contest today. I'm already winning. Look at that. Look at that. You're doing all this. But now I'm doing it because you got me. What are you talking about? No, this came out. We were talking. We rarely take the time to watch the you'll hear a podcast. Well, I don't know about it in your household. No, we watch it with the family every single week. Oh, you do? You tie the kids down to the sofa. watch daddy while mommy pukes. No, I mean, I was noticing, and please let us know in the comments below if you've noticed this as well. Maybe it's just a self-conscious thing, you know, when people like see themselves on TV, ooh, I look fat and everyone else is like, I didn't notice because you always look fat, you know? But I mean, it just seems like there's a lot of movement going on. Now, for those of you listening, which is the vast majority, I might say, I might add. We're still very, we're growing on the YouTube's, which is fun. And I think, you know, we've got some cool camera angles. The pod cave is falling apart. It's actually falling apart. They're working on it tomorrow it tomorrow i think but the mustiness and the |
| 1:29.1 | dilapidation level of the podcast is actually not apparent in the video for some reason and i don't know |
| 1:34.4 | if that's andrew's editing or what i don't know this looks like a pro level setup because of the |
| 1:38.8 | great microphones and but i mean this is a piece of crap i mean this thing is falling down yeah when |
| 1:43.6 | you're in here though this looks like a shack made under an overpass by the river I mean this thing is going to collapse on us at some point some point and we will die in the pod cave yeah but until that day we are here to give some daily jazz advice and two unknown jazz musicians died yesterday in a horrible podcasting accident is that was going to be on our two our |
| 2:01.9 | poppers tune the headline for the next day oh on the on whoever takes over this podcast that's right |
| 2:08.7 | that's funny man but uh yeah we're gonna make some improvements to the pod cave even though no one can |
| 2:15.0 | see we can see we can see yeah And it does drive us a little bit. |
| 2:19.0 | This is a good sounding pocket. |
| 2:19.8 | I'm always getting compliments on that, |
| 2:18.7 | folks listening on the, which we've done a lot of, you know, or I should say Andrew and others have done a lot of work to get it to that point. So that's a lot of fun. Do you, let me ask you question. Yeah. Do you, when you're like writing music or practicing, do you pace around a bit when you're thinking? |
| 3:08.0 | Because I'm a pacer. This is why I think we're both fidgeting. Like when I'm thinking, I like to move a little bit. Yeah, sometimes. But usually writing, I'm like, I have to like force myself to get up off the piano at least once an hour. Because I will go several hours, which like physically is just not good. I was doing it the other day and I was like my wrist was cramping up and it wasn't from I mean it was playing going back and forth I was going old school with a little pencil on paper and but yeah so then I need to get up and pace around yeah I don't actually don't do it automatically enough I mean I walk in circles around my living room all night long if I have to. Right. But there you go. Yeah, that's why I'm spinning in my chair right now. Yeah. So what are we talking about today? Today we got a speak pipe. This is from Alex, Mr. Spaceman, one of our favorites. One of our you'll hear premium members. Premium members. And he has a question about melody. Let's take a listen. Hey Adam. Hey, Peter. |
