Hi, everyone and welcome to shortcomings, a Sex in the City podcast where we dive into every episode of Sex in the City, the Two Movies, and of course, and just like that, I am your host, Samantha Bush, and of course, I'm joined by Chris Lewis. Hi.

Hello. How are you? I'm doing well. How are you? I'm well. Can you hear me? Oh, yeah, loud and clear, baby.

Okay, perfect, because I'm, you know, I'm leaned back a bit today. You are.

This is back to the early days of shortcomings.

Oh, my God.

You guys, if only we had video during that time in our lives.

It was tough.

It was really tough stuff those days.

We were recording from a window sill, boxes.

I recorded once from a bathroom floor.

Then you were told to tuck into the mic, which is, you'd think it was just pretty

self-explanatory.

And here's the thing.

And my work, I tell people all the time when I prepare remarks for them, you cannot

hold the mic.

It's not a magical device that once you're holding it just amplifies your voice.

Speak into it. And then I was like, can't take that advice myself.

No, you know. You were told simply to stand still. You know, what I've realized about myself

that I've always kind of known, but to see it on video is really tough, is that I can't sit

still and I fidget a lot and I touch my face a lot.

I'm doing a lot of wonky.

You're like a lot of mind work over there.
