This is Philosophy versus Improv, where two sages try to teach each other a thing or two,

and maybe you, the audience, gets something out of it as well.

My name is Bill Arnett, an improv, IT professional, yet a philosophy noob.

This is Mark Linsomeyer.

I am a philosophy, I would say,

in the HR department and a just kind of skating by pretending to do improv a little bit.

We have a very special guest today. Please introduce yourself. Hello. My name is Sherry Flanders.

I guess I'm an improv expert if such thing exists, but I am a philosophy noob because I have a degree in fashion design and I chased after all of the art boys and not philosophy boys.

I don't know anything about that.

I think there's a lot philosophical to say about fashion design.

I think this, I think you've picked our topic.

It actually gets deeper than you would expect. Yeah, I imagine so. I imagine so. Well, I don't know. I sometimes I often ask Mark, as again, I'm kind of new to philosophy as well. What did the ancients say? What did the ancient Greek and Chinese and philosophers from all around the world? What did they say? And being fashion, all I'm thinking about now are just togas, togas and robes and, you know.

You do not so much yet. So they were just like, you know, tie it on. That's what we're doing.

I would say loincloths. When you're really looking at the real ancients.

It's really nice that they found, apparently loins. According to what I see on the screens,

the ancient people, they were very careful to cover their junk. They were very careful to

cover exactly the

things that we're self-conscious about. National Geographic, I mean, that's bullshit. That's like

fake news, but like, you know, that Ringo Star Cave Man movie. I think that's kind of where I'm

drawn. Yeah. If all you've got is a hangar chip, you've got to make a choice. Yeah.

Top or bottom.

What's it going to be?
