Honestly I think my favorite thing is that Marc Evan Jackson is clearly a super fan of the show.

BizarroAzrael posted:The swear filter on the podcast is oddly inconsistent, Marc repeatedly gets to declare himself "a naughty bitch"(understandable as it's one of the best uses of his voice ever) but they censored "Dress BENCH".

I haven't recovered from one of the bits of interstitial music being way louder than the rest of the podcast and startling me!

I forget, did they say Dress Bitch on the show? I thought maybe that was why Marc gets to use the 'naughty bitch' line because he's quoting actual dialogue that he performed. Also, it took me like 6 episodes of the podcast to realise the censor bits were actually Kristen's voice.

I am irrationally curious who they're getting to be the guest for the last episode of season 1. It almost has to be Schur.

Schur's who I'd want on the most probably, bring it back full circle and maybe get a few more tidbits on the twist, though that's been pretty thoroughly dissected there might be one more little wrinkle.

Also, whenever Schur is a podcast guest, there's a solid chance he'll go on a forty minute diatribe about the Yankees, and I'm always there for that.

On the most recent episode with the costumer, she talked about how they made entire bolts of fabric with the blue-and-yellow pattern. All so they could then sew unique costumes for everybody, based on their real clothes. It's that kind of expense for a two-minute gag that make me love the show and wonder why more places aren't commissioning their own fabric. That and the realization that Janet's uniform is based (in part) on awesome stewardesses, such a great interview!

Yeah, as soon as she said that, I couldn't believe I didn't think of it myself. I was surprised to learn that Michael's bow ties were sort of a last-minute decision, given how well they fit the character. The peacock feather one in the pilot is from a company near me, and its appearance on the show is easily the most I've ever liked their stuff.

Super fun podcast today. I love that the VFX supervisor is named Niednagel, that he majored in Econ, and uses his kids to film pre-vis type stuff for the show. There's a bunch of good discussion about how the show's visual effects get made. Also Maribeth Monroe and Marc Evan Jackson are old friends so they get along like gangbusters.

Has the show talked about Rawls yet? It really feels like that's where it's going. We all appear one day in a place that everyone tells us is good but where we are constantly suffering.

The first time I saw that fundraiser, one of the most recent donors was Jake Jortles. This morning, the most recent donor was comedy writer Megan Ganz. A star-studded fundraiser!

It's been over a decade since I last read Justice As Fairness, but iirc Rawls' core argument was that the most just society is the one that provides the most happiness to the people with the least. On a side note, it always slightly bothered me that Chidi's central flaw is completely contrary to every philosopher I've ever met. They've all been very open and confident in which system of moral philosophy they think is best.

this is a bit random, but when I left the train station today, I saw a frozen yogurt place. I've never had frozen yogurt before so I decided to try it. Michael was right on the money. It's just ... okay. Nothing particularly that made it stand out. Which was, because of this goddamn show, a really amusing observation/experience and made it so much ... better? Let's go with 'better'. On the topic of episode titles, 3.10 makes me go

Everyone has a right to a set of equal basic liberties. So, as much freedom for everyone, insofar as their freedom is compatible with everyone else's freedom. 2. Fair equality of opportunity for positions in society that provide social and economic opportunities. So, jobs have to be open to everyone, and distributed on a non-discriminatory basis, and so on. 3. Economic inequality is justified only insofar as it is necessary to better the position of the worst off. So, everyone earns an equal amount of money, unless anyone (say, doctors) earning more than everyone else would be better for the worst-off people.

The line about froyo being humanity taking a great thing (ice cream) and making it slightly worse so we can have more of it, is bang on. I've never had frozen yogurt and thought "oh boy, I'm glad I didn't have ice cream instead".

I've never had frozen yogurt and thought "oh boy, I'm glad I didn't have ice cream instead". I genuinely prefer frozen yogurt. It has a better texture and tends to be less sweet. Good ( ) local places also make it with fattier cream, so you're not even missing out on richness if that's what you're after.
