WEBVTT 00:00.531 --> 00:03.935 [SPEAKER_02]: Hello everyone and welcome back to queer PG. 00:04.075 --> 00:05.336 [SPEAKER_02]: Happy Pride. 00:05.476 --> 00:11.042 [SPEAKER_02]: This is our second one shot for Pride Month and today we will be playing Viva Lacquire Bar. 00:11.642 --> 00:15.906 [SPEAKER_02]: My name is Kendi Tartaboyoni and I am the creative director of queer PG. 00:15.926 --> 00:19.309 [SPEAKER_02]: So you've heard me a lot, but I have two new guests on the show. 00:19.329 --> 00:21.111 [SPEAKER_00]: Hi everybody, I am Kian. 00:21.151 --> 00:23.013 [SPEAKER_00]: I go by Bradley Kian across all the internet. 00:23.253 --> 00:24.775 [SPEAKER_00]: I am a TTRPG server. 00:25.315 --> 00:29.342 [SPEAKER_00]: streamer and a BG host as well now. 00:29.903 --> 00:31.105 [SPEAKER_00]: Are you zahy-prone out as well? 00:31.809 --> 00:36.071 [SPEAKER_01]: Hello, I'm Stella Luna on Twitch and Stella Luna TV everywhere else. 00:36.231 --> 00:41.974 [SPEAKER_01]: I use any old pronouns and if you see it say she's a, it's because I'm way too lazy to update all of the things. 00:42.495 --> 00:44.916 [SPEAKER_01]: But you can't use literally any pronouns to lay fine. 00:45.556 --> 00:47.497 [SPEAKER_01]: I am a TTRBG producer. 00:47.617 --> 00:53.120 [SPEAKER_01]: I also work in TTRBG outreach and I love doing this all the time every day. 00:53.320 --> 00:54.721 [SPEAKER_01]: So thank you so much for having me. 00:55.521 --> 01:10.716 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm very excited to have both of you on to play this game, for our audience who doesn't know Vivala Quirbara, make a little rundown about the game, Vivala Quirbara is a slice of life story game about a Quirbara and the team who runs it. 01:11.256 --> 01:14.637 [SPEAKER_02]: It's a game about the pleasures and struggles of being part of the queer community. 01:15.157 --> 01:21.038 [SPEAKER_02]: It welcomes players of all genders and orientations who are willing to take on the perspective of a queer character for the duration of the game. 01:21.278 --> 01:26.640 [SPEAKER_02]: This game requires no preparation, you just need the zine and a regular deck of playing cards and you're ready to go. 01:26.980 --> 01:30.121 [SPEAKER_02]: We do have a safety tools that we have already gone through as a cast. 01:31.741 --> 01:39.549 [SPEAKER_02]: and those will be implemented during play if needed, and then the game starts by taking turns during playing cards and answering the questions associated with them. 01:39.889 --> 01:53.764 [SPEAKER_02]: We will hear all of these questions prompts throughout the game, and over the course of the game, our queerbar, our main characters, some side characters, and the details about the surroundings of the queerbar will be developed through the answers to those questions. 01:54.304 --> 02:01.806 [SPEAKER_02]: and the game culminates with a final question that we will all have to answer, which is, what is your most important wish for the future of the clear bar? 02:02.747 --> 02:04.307 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's so sweet. 02:04.647 --> 02:05.648 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I love that. 02:05.768 --> 02:07.008 [SPEAKER_00]: That's actually really nice. 02:07.468 --> 02:16.131 [SPEAKER_02]: All of the prep in this game is collaborative, and it is really only setting up our relationship to each other, the setting for the bar and the tone. 02:17.285 --> 02:19.646 [SPEAKER_02]: so our queer bar can be anywhere. 02:20.166 --> 02:31.789 [SPEAKER_02]: Some of the options that the game gives are a medieval tavern, a cyberpunk underground club or just the real world that we live in today, which is any any our good choices. 02:32.450 --> 02:37.711 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't personally have a preference for this if we want to do something wacky that is totally cool. 02:37.731 --> 02:40.212 [SPEAKER_02]: If you want to do something more grounded, that is totally cool. 02:40.947 --> 02:42.888 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my gosh, there's so many options. 02:42.948 --> 02:44.949 [SPEAKER_01]: There are a lot of options. 02:45.009 --> 02:55.074 [SPEAKER_01]: The second that you mentioned that this could be anywhere, I don't know why, but I just kind of imagined very cowboy bebop kind of like, Thank you. 02:55.094 --> 02:55.954 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my God. 02:55.974 --> 02:56.835 [SPEAKER_01]: Did you also? 02:57.535 --> 03:04.399 [SPEAKER_00]: Not like I've been in a futuristic rut for the past little like it's too weak Stip. 03:04.739 --> 03:11.343 [SPEAKER_00]: So yes, I've been watching like cowboy be about bubblegum crisis all of that like I've been stuck. 03:11.663 --> 03:12.304 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god 03:12.933 --> 03:22.026 [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I don't know anything about cowboy b-bubbs, so somebody explain what the vibe is. 03:22.466 --> 03:27.994 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, imagine space, like corporate space, right? 03:28.154 --> 03:28.995 [SPEAKER_01]: And then you've got... 03:29.616 --> 03:53.253 [SPEAKER_01]: sad bounty hunters cowboy kind of wild wild west vibes out in space, but it's like junky derelict like diners, gas stations, you know, like everyone is trying really hard to scrap by because just capitalism sucks and it's in space, but sometimes you got to move between 03:56.435 --> 04:02.573 [SPEAKER_00]: It's very scrap metal, scrap metal make it work type of vibes and I, oh, it's so good. 04:03.054 --> 04:04.474 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I love the sound of that. 04:04.774 --> 04:08.035 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, so we're Space Cowboy bar owners. 04:14.277 --> 04:17.378 [SPEAKER_02]: What type of bar are we? 04:17.458 --> 04:26.800 [SPEAKER_02]: So is this like it feels like we should be like a kind of general queer bar because, you know, we could be more specific if it's just like 04:27.180 --> 04:35.207 [SPEAKER_02]: Let's be in bar if it's a leather bar, if it's for gay men, if music maybe we want to open it up to all all genders and orientations here. 04:35.527 --> 04:38.490 [SPEAKER_00]: My brain went through, this is the place you go for the afters. 04:39.030 --> 04:45.896 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's like you go here because it's like they have enough space for everybody, and then also it's like there's also food. 04:46.136 --> 04:47.437 [SPEAKER_03]: We're like the industry bar. 04:47.917 --> 04:53.522 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, kind of like we're like, it's the place you go to after like the con. 04:54.086 --> 05:03.908 [SPEAKER_00]: After like this is the place where you go to hang out after everything is already happened and it's just like This is the place to like decompress debrief and actually hang out with your people. 05:04.528 --> 05:05.188 [SPEAKER_02]: I like that. 05:05.609 --> 05:08.729 [SPEAKER_02]: I like that a lot big community based then. 05:08.749 --> 05:15.191 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh 100% which honestly, I think all queer bars should probably be in general, but great. 05:15.531 --> 05:18.911 [SPEAKER_00]: So everybody here went to like that had their first queer bar, right? 05:19.191 --> 05:19.612 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 05:20.192 --> 05:21.272 [SPEAKER_00]: What was the name of yours? 05:22.008 --> 05:27.710 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't remember because mine was in Germany, it was a long time ago. 05:27.730 --> 05:35.734 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like, I feel like also the problem is like, a lot of bars are just like queer sometimes, you know? 05:35.854 --> 05:37.014 [SPEAKER_00]: Which, it's a fair. 05:38.695 --> 05:43.697 [SPEAKER_03]: Like even, even like gay bars, even gay bars feel sometimes like they're just queer sometimes. 05:44.037 --> 06:04.996 [SPEAKER_00]: Queer on occasion, I can never forget mine because it was very formative for me and it's in the middle of Oklahoma City and it was called Trump's oh my god, I love that so absolutely it was called the inner belt that sounds accurate that also sounds like a good name for this bar to 06:05.901 --> 06:09.345 [SPEAKER_03]: You know what you're kind of right. 06:09.445 --> 06:09.725 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah. 06:09.885 --> 06:10.206 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 06:10.666 --> 06:11.887 [SPEAKER_03]: We're going to go and see. 06:13.069 --> 06:17.453 [SPEAKER_03]: No, it's not to get to space in or about. 06:17.513 --> 06:18.514 [SPEAKER_03]: I actually love that. 06:18.555 --> 06:19.435 [SPEAKER_03]: I think that's great. 06:20.477 --> 06:21.978 [SPEAKER_02]: That would be the name of the ball. 06:22.579 --> 06:26.723 [SPEAKER_02]: It's community based for like people congregate there after events. 06:27.848 --> 06:41.496 [SPEAKER_02]: So that feels like it can bring a sense of chaos to the game in terms of there's a wide array of clientele kind of, if we're like after concerts, after cons, after all different events. 06:41.536 --> 06:44.278 [SPEAKER_02]: It feels like it can bring in a wide array of individuals. 06:45.018 --> 06:51.222 [SPEAKER_02]: We should also talk about our relationship to each other and then what our like specific jobs are at the bar. 06:52.062 --> 07:05.105 [SPEAKER_02]: So, you know, are we like college friends who open a bar, where we regulars who got, who bought the bar out, where we just kind of lost souls who wanted across this space and got jobs? 07:06.625 --> 07:09.326 [SPEAKER_01]: So, Kenzie, a really big thing. 07:09.386 --> 07:13.407 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, obviously we don't have to be explicitly cowboy, be bump inspired. 07:13.427 --> 07:17.268 [SPEAKER_01]: We're in and now we want to focus on Kenzie. 07:17.348 --> 07:19.228 [SPEAKER_01]: Let me tell you, one of the most important 07:22.269 --> 07:45.942 [SPEAKER_01]: The name is because music is such a huge part of it, so I think it would be really cool if the inner belt Like how my B-bout version has like a lot of music built into it, so maybe it could be like Where artists are encouraged to come here and they hold their shows here or even like just a reprieve from like the 07:47.188 --> 08:11.588 [SPEAKER_01]: Horturus corporate like droning, you know, atmosphere everywhere else and this place is meant to be more lively, it's meant to be a lot more of everyone going off of their own drum, you know, it's maybe it's like when they throw events here, it isn't one genre of music like maybe it's just a kaleidoscope of all kinds of different songs and artists and 08:12.709 --> 08:14.772 [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe you're like, slam poetry, who knows? 08:14.853 --> 08:17.777 [SPEAKER_01]: I was about to say something word poetry. 08:17.957 --> 08:20.962 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I love that, I love that. 08:21.423 --> 08:23.546 [SPEAKER_01]: So with that in mind, who do we want to play? 08:23.566 --> 08:26.230 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, who do we want to play? 08:27.924 --> 08:34.187 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why when you started saying all of that, my mind went to like the musical Chicago. 08:34.748 --> 08:48.675 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm thinking like it's us like running the bar, but I also like the idea of us getting the bar from somebody else and like keeping it from closing because a lot of queer bars now are closing down. 08:49.540 --> 08:53.683 [SPEAKER_00]: I would like for us to be able to revitalize this one and give it like a new spin. 08:53.764 --> 08:58.467 [SPEAKER_00]: So us taking the music twist on it and making it a music hub for people to come to. 08:58.667 --> 09:05.233 [SPEAKER_01]: I like that idea a lot maybe like the actual physical location was something else. 09:05.993 --> 09:10.017 [SPEAKER_01]: And we acquired it and we've built it into this new thing. 09:11.383 --> 09:16.431 [SPEAKER_02]: I like this idea that we were maybe like traveling, I don't know, it's space. 09:16.451 --> 09:18.434 [SPEAKER_02]: Do they travel around space and cowboy beef up? 09:19.135 --> 09:20.417 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, one of those things. 09:20.437 --> 09:20.857 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 09:20.878 --> 09:20.978 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay. 09:20.998 --> 09:22.921 [SPEAKER_01]: We should like your home, basically. 09:23.421 --> 09:23.782 [SPEAKER_02]: Nice. 09:24.739 --> 09:33.744 [SPEAKER_02]: where we like traveling around and we landed the ship in the space of this other place and then built our ship into the bar. 09:34.325 --> 09:36.786 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I like that a lot. 09:36.806 --> 09:41.469 [SPEAKER_02]: So like the land was something else and we acquired the land, landed the ship. 09:42.289 --> 09:43.630 [SPEAKER_02]: Ship is now the gay bar. 09:44.651 --> 09:46.192 [SPEAKER_00]: I love that a lot of. 09:47.915 --> 09:51.737 [SPEAKER_01]: I would mean that our ship, our home, is now the bar. 09:51.837 --> 09:54.319 [SPEAKER_01]: Like the bar is partially our home, too. 09:54.679 --> 09:59.722 [SPEAKER_00]: And that is the gayest thing possible, because gay is a lot of living in the box of things. 09:59.742 --> 10:01.623 [SPEAKER_03]: We do love living in the box of things. 10:02.144 --> 10:03.804 [SPEAKER_00]: We love living in the box of things. 10:04.085 --> 10:06.586 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, I love a bagel shop. 10:06.626 --> 10:09.288 [SPEAKER_00]: I love a book of music, absolutely. 10:10.048 --> 10:12.730 [SPEAKER_01]: I live on top of a cafe right now. 10:13.270 --> 10:13.731 [SPEAKER_01]: No. 10:16.352 --> 10:21.616 [SPEAKER_02]: Seeing as I am a bartender in life, I'm going to give myself the promotion and be the bar manager. 10:21.636 --> 10:23.717 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yes. 10:24.217 --> 10:25.838 [SPEAKER_00]: Pretty fancy. 10:26.799 --> 10:30.441 [SPEAKER_03]: Some ways got to be the event coordinator for having all these artsy types. 10:31.122 --> 10:32.563 [SPEAKER_00]: I already do that in my day job. 10:34.213 --> 10:46.544 [SPEAKER_01]: think he thinks actually they have like that's basically what I do right now to I actually want to know what I'm like, I don't know God, we can have other, we can have other employees if we so want. 10:47.144 --> 10:50.047 [SPEAKER_00]: I'd rather be a mechanic than be the evict coordinator. 10:51.228 --> 10:53.190 [SPEAKER_01]: One of us needs to have been the pilot. 10:54.471 --> 10:55.191 [SPEAKER_00]: Pilot it is. 10:56.208 --> 10:58.429 [SPEAKER_01]: All right, screw it, I'll be that bad man. 11:01.010 --> 11:01.870 [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no. 11:02.210 --> 11:05.911 [SPEAKER_01]: It went literally my first instinct while we were talking and thinking about it. 11:06.092 --> 11:07.532 [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, do I do it? 11:07.972 --> 11:12.354 [SPEAKER_01]: I think I do, but I'll also give myself a promotion, all right. 11:12.394 --> 11:15.355 [SPEAKER_01]: I'll be at, I'll be the the the the coder. 11:15.895 --> 11:21.197 [SPEAKER_01]: I'll have like an intrinsic understanding of like software and like, 11:22.462 --> 11:24.383 [SPEAKER_01]: Fixing the physical things. 11:24.864 --> 11:26.265 [SPEAKER_01]: I also fix the schedule. 11:26.965 --> 11:28.747 [SPEAKER_00]: Somebody's got to summarize. 11:28.767 --> 11:29.247 [SPEAKER_01]: Got to. 11:31.509 --> 11:33.930 [SPEAKER_00]: Wait, so are we like, are we are we mobile? 11:33.991 --> 11:35.412 [SPEAKER_00]: Are we stationary right now? 11:35.472 --> 11:39.735 [SPEAKER_02]: So I was going to say what as the pilot slash mechanic. 11:40.315 --> 11:42.557 [SPEAKER_02]: Does that translate into like. 11:43.467 --> 11:47.488 [SPEAKER_02]: the sound engineer for the shows and the bar. 11:47.588 --> 11:48.388 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah. 11:48.828 --> 11:49.688 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh absolutely. 11:49.748 --> 11:54.529 [SPEAKER_00]: Like I'm probably like when when it's slow nights, I'm probably up there doing my own thing. 11:54.549 --> 11:56.890 [SPEAKER_00]: Like we're doing my own little slam poetry nights and stuff. 11:58.050 --> 12:03.051 [SPEAKER_00]: But for the most part, yeah, I'm probably doing like the pyro techniques and all of like our shows. 12:03.151 --> 12:04.091 [SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't matter. 12:04.151 --> 12:04.891 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, yeah. 12:09.592 --> 12:11.253 [SPEAKER_00]: full on the rusters and everything. 12:11.433 --> 12:12.153 [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely. 12:12.693 --> 12:18.095 [SPEAKER_00]: And mind you, they're just doing slamp poetry and out of nowhere this sparks that everything fly and off. 12:18.735 --> 12:24.317 [SPEAKER_01]: My expertise of like, you know, coding things is now updating inventory lists. 12:26.638 --> 12:29.979 [SPEAKER_03]: Make sure we have synthetic limes for our 12:39.271 --> 12:48.210 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like that answers all of my questions about, you know, the bar itself and what we do, do you guys have any outstanding questions that we before we jump in? 12:50.195 --> 12:59.699 [SPEAKER_01]: I think my question is, for my experience of queer bars, usually there's like a theme, right? 13:00.079 --> 13:03.440 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, just like, even if it's just aesthetic, right? 13:03.821 --> 13:07.162 [SPEAKER_01]: What do we kind of imagine our aesthetic to be? 13:07.182 --> 13:09.763 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, it could even just be like a primary color. 13:09.863 --> 13:13.825 [SPEAKER_01]: That's found, like, it could be like, do we lean into, 13:14.705 --> 13:25.609 [SPEAKER_01]: Like plants or I don't know why, but like when I was living in DC, there were so many queer bars that were like baseball oriented. 13:25.629 --> 13:29.250 [SPEAKER_01]: It was so random. 13:29.890 --> 13:35.232 [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe there's the neighborhood that I was in, but you know that, but what are we? 13:37.213 --> 13:39.994 [SPEAKER_02]: I know that solar punk is technically... 13:41.439 --> 14:01.209 [SPEAKER_02]: a not real genre because of the actual like etymology of punk, but maybe that sort of vibe, so like the mixing, like we have a big ship, so we've covered it in plants, maybe we like opens, opened up the top and there's like a sunroof for during the day and then at night the moonroof. 14:01.973 --> 14:02.715 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, thank god. 14:02.755 --> 14:03.897 [SPEAKER_00]: There's a hot gardener. 14:04.177 --> 14:08.445 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, yes, there's a hot gardener. 14:08.525 --> 14:15.056 [SPEAKER_00]: They're name is soil like yes, send me the non binary 14:16.545 --> 14:19.368 [SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, maybe it's like a full of plant life. 14:20.369 --> 14:25.154 [SPEAKER_02]: And maybe like kind of crazy plants too from all over the solar system. 14:25.695 --> 14:26.135 [SPEAKER_02]: Like the dark. 14:26.156 --> 14:34.725 [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe people like come and like, that's like a thing with the bars like you come and like first drinks on us if you bring a plant that we don't have or something. 14:35.505 --> 14:41.929 [SPEAKER_00]: That's nice and then like maybe we have like because a lot of queer bars, they also have like a patio in everything as well. 14:42.349 --> 14:48.012 [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe we have like a full botanical garden inside as well that people can go and sit and drink in into. 14:48.592 --> 14:50.874 [SPEAKER_01]: I really love that especially because. 14:51.792 --> 15:13.130 [SPEAKER_01]: I can just imagine, especially since queer bars are so community-oriented, someone moving into the area, and it's like, okay, they're new to the community, don't really know anyone, someone says, all right, look, just bring a plant, go to this bar, you know, you would instantly have connection, because it's like, okay, you know, you 15:14.331 --> 15:21.216 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, you bring something and then that place like, you know, assuming they accept it, that joins the dirt, right? 15:21.396 --> 15:22.957 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, that's part of the garden. 15:23.057 --> 15:24.378 [SPEAKER_01]: You become part of the garden. 15:24.398 --> 15:25.558 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that's sick. 15:25.718 --> 15:26.139 [SPEAKER_00]: That's sick. 15:26.159 --> 15:26.559 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, guys. 15:26.599 --> 15:29.961 [SPEAKER_02]: So when we're done playing this game, we're going to create an LLC in a business. 15:30.682 --> 15:32.763 [SPEAKER_00]: And this is actually happening. 15:32.923 --> 15:35.345 [SPEAKER_00]: We're opening a bar. 15:35.825 --> 15:42.487 [SPEAKER_00]: So I know I said I was going to be like the pyro technique because of it all right, but then we mentioned that there's now a garden here. 15:42.787 --> 15:46.088 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, can I be like, you cannot, can I be the head gardener instead? 15:46.488 --> 15:55.550 [SPEAKER_00]: I, yeah, I think like as a pilot, one of the big things now, he's like, I want to set up roots and this is his way of setting up roots. 15:55.570 --> 15:57.791 [SPEAKER_00]: So I think that that's really the magic for him. 15:58.171 --> 16:01.152 [SPEAKER_01]: That is so funny coming from the pilot. 16:01.172 --> 16:04.213 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I mean, I think like that's such a great story hook, 16:05.341 --> 16:10.704 [SPEAKER_01]: Like you're as a pilot, you're used to moving around, but it's like trying to set roots. 16:11.024 --> 16:14.225 [SPEAKER_00]: Now it's just like, yep, now it just gets a sit back and watch my plants do. 16:14.465 --> 16:26.331 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll still do the pyro techniques on like the weekends, but just because it's fun, but for the most part, I think he really does just like enjoy the slow life with his best friends. 16:27.051 --> 16:28.232 [SPEAKER_00]: Why did we come together? 16:28.772 --> 16:32.874 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like we know how we got here, but why did we all come together? 16:35.656 --> 16:37.557 [SPEAKER_02]: flyin' around on space adventure. 16:37.597 --> 16:51.128 [SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, 16:51.772 --> 16:55.295 [SPEAKER_01]: We were a part of the machine and we escaped the machine. 16:55.356 --> 16:57.898 [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, yes, absolutely. 16:57.958 --> 17:01.121 [SPEAKER_03]: And now we have a garden bar in the middle of nowhere. 17:01.161 --> 17:02.603 [SPEAKER_03]: That's just so gay of us. 17:03.003 --> 17:04.445 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it's just like, all right, cool. 17:04.485 --> 17:05.626 [SPEAKER_00]: We're not doing this anymore. 17:05.646 --> 17:06.326 [UNKNOWN]: 100%. 17:10.896 --> 17:13.218 [SPEAKER_02]: Now, the story begins. 17:13.778 --> 17:15.580 [SPEAKER_02]: You are part of the queer community. 17:15.920 --> 17:23.185 [SPEAKER_02]: You are a lesbian, gay, bi, pan, non-binary, trans-queer, intersects a sexual aromantic, and or some other kind of queer. 17:23.726 --> 17:25.807 [SPEAKER_02]: The queer bar is also part of this community. 17:26.568 --> 17:31.071 [SPEAKER_02]: You are part of the queer bar team or have been working at the queer bar in another role. 17:31.631 --> 17:33.133 [SPEAKER_02]: The queer bar is a home for you. 17:33.893 --> 17:37.276 [SPEAKER_02]: today is an important anniversary for the queer bar. 17:37.996 --> 17:40.959 [SPEAKER_02]: We're starting at the bar waiting for the others so you can celebrate together. 17:41.639 --> 17:47.964 [SPEAKER_02]: You look around the room and remember your experience at the queer bar, which I can now stop referring to as the queer bar and call Interbelt. 17:48.344 --> 17:54.529 [SPEAKER_02]: And now, whoever wants to draw the first playing card can do so if you would like me to begin, I can do so. 17:54.549 --> 17:56.911 [SPEAKER_02]: We want me to break the ice on the cards. 17:57.972 --> 17:59.153 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's only right. 17:59.173 --> 18:00.334 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, 18:01.605 --> 18:03.609 [SPEAKER_03]: I'll do it, you twist in my arm. 18:04.711 --> 18:06.474 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, the first while we are starting out strong. 18:06.975 --> 18:08.918 [SPEAKER_03]: Someone left the queer bar team. 18:08.998 --> 18:10.821 [SPEAKER_03]: Someone left the inner belt team. 18:11.342 --> 18:13.927 [SPEAKER_03]: What conflict in the group was the reason? 18:14.917 --> 18:21.203 [SPEAKER_02]: I think that throughout the years, I feel like this is an important anniversary. 18:21.243 --> 18:26.428 [SPEAKER_02]: So I want to say like maybe five years, unlike the five year anniversary of the queer bar. 18:27.029 --> 18:36.699 [SPEAKER_02]: There was a consistent artist who would perform at Interbelt was dating one of the bartenders. 18:38.060 --> 18:42.342 [SPEAKER_02]: and there was, the conflict actually wasn't the breakup. 18:42.642 --> 18:51.287 [SPEAKER_02]: The conflict was that the bartender started to not think that the performance fit the vibe of the bar. 18:52.008 --> 19:00.433 [SPEAKER_02]: And so I feel like as a team, the conclusion was that the performer would stay. 19:01.373 --> 19:06.476 [SPEAKER_02]: and so the bartender decided to leave the bar. 19:07.017 --> 19:11.720 [SPEAKER_02]: The bar just was like a poetry, like spoken word. 19:11.740 --> 19:20.986 [SPEAKER_03]: And maybe the poems actually got to personal about the bartender and their relationship. 19:21.586 --> 19:24.328 [SPEAKER_03]: And so the bartender was like, can we not do this at my place of work? 19:25.049 --> 19:26.329 [SPEAKER_03]: And it was like, but it's art. 19:27.730 --> 19:29.771 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I've got to support art. 19:31.631 --> 19:32.331 [SPEAKER_02]: It's art. 19:33.551 --> 19:38.813 [SPEAKER_02]: And so that person was like, for my own sanity, I do have to relieve myself from this position. 19:39.453 --> 19:44.794 [SPEAKER_00]: I wonder if they started working at an opposing bar across the galaxy. 19:45.454 --> 19:49.695 [SPEAKER_02]: They're telling stories about Interbelt and they're on a different planet. 19:50.135 --> 19:50.655 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 19:50.675 --> 19:53.176 [SPEAKER_00]: Like a whole different planet still talk about Interbelt. 19:54.669 --> 20:01.952 [SPEAKER_00]: The inner belt has a special beverage on offer, who is the best at making it, who orders it regularly. 20:02.572 --> 20:12.436 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like, of course, the bar manager is the one who came up with the drink, however our star bartender. 20:14.410 --> 20:16.791 [SPEAKER_00]: What are we going to name, what are we going to name the bartender? 20:17.631 --> 20:19.632 [SPEAKER_02]: If that's a character you're going to go with, I think you can name it. 20:20.032 --> 20:25.454 [SPEAKER_00]: I think I'm going to give them like I'm looking at like a card right here and it says mystic on it. 20:25.474 --> 20:26.654 [SPEAKER_00]: So I think their name is mystic. 20:27.174 --> 20:33.096 [SPEAKER_00]: Myst you like, can see your character made the drink but mystic perfected it. 20:33.576 --> 20:38.838 [SPEAKER_00]: So like they are like they are turning and burning and making like the best of these. 20:38.858 --> 20:42.099 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's probably like it is the most 20:42.778 --> 21:06.251 [SPEAKER_02]: alcoholic drink you can think of but it tastes like cotton candy and you it does it is a very dangerous but it is delicious I literally at work the other day tried to create a blueberry pineapple tequila sour what which turned out not terribly so it looked great too it was like a purple 21:11.096 --> 21:15.179 [SPEAKER_00]: And honestly, I was about to say I think I might order it the most. 21:15.840 --> 21:16.861 [SPEAKER_00]: Who ordered it regularly? 21:17.141 --> 21:19.003 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it might be my go-to drink. 21:20.003 --> 21:21.525 [SPEAKER_00]: I was called the Mystic Sour. 21:22.838 --> 21:24.799 [SPEAKER_01]: Ooh, mystic sour. 21:25.500 --> 21:28.221 [SPEAKER_01]: Where in the queer bar do you like to be the most? 21:28.621 --> 21:29.202 [SPEAKER_01]: Why? 21:29.902 --> 21:32.344 [SPEAKER_01]: We have like seating essentially. 21:32.364 --> 21:42.389 [SPEAKER_01]: I like to think that we have like corner seating where there's like some benches that are built into the wall and that there's like a round, table in front of it. 21:42.890 --> 21:45.051 [SPEAKER_01]: The benches are very comfy. 21:45.091 --> 21:49.874 [SPEAKER_01]: They have these luxurious cushions that we've collected in our journeys. 21:52.475 --> 22:01.003 [SPEAKER_01]: They're very plush and we have hanging plants kind of over the corners of the room as well. 22:01.543 --> 22:05.567 [SPEAKER_01]: And like I imagine like between the corners like in the very back. 22:05.920 --> 22:14.947 [SPEAKER_01]: There's probably part of that glass solar roof, moon roof kind of vibe that we've got going on as well. 22:15.567 --> 22:22.132 [SPEAKER_01]: And so it has this sort of just air of, come sit and relax. 22:22.753 --> 22:31.679 [SPEAKER_01]: And I think like the quiet times when it's the during the day and the bar is like technically open, 22:35.713 --> 22:37.075 [SPEAKER_01]: time for jubilation. 22:37.095 --> 22:48.947 [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's the favorite part in the favorite place because it's a reminder of where we are and what we came from because this is our ship, right? 22:48.987 --> 22:57.917 [SPEAKER_01]: It's more of a moron, a reminder of like, you know, this is our ship, this is our house, this is where we live and at night it transforms into something else. 22:59.332 --> 23:07.438 [SPEAKER_02]: During the day, is that where you do your scheduling and you're planning in the corner booth with all your favorite spread out? 23:08.199 --> 23:13.403 [SPEAKER_01]: Whew, yeah, I think it has to be, just to keep the quarters all levels down. 23:13.443 --> 23:13.863 [SPEAKER_01]: You know? 23:13.883 --> 23:28.915 [SPEAKER_00]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha 23:29.353 --> 23:46.862 [SPEAKER_01]: Especially because like a lot of bar work is outside of like the actual bar hours, like, you know, clean up and set up, making sure we have all the things that we need, scheduling people to show up when they need to show up, you know, a lot of that happens when other people aren't around. 23:47.762 --> 23:52.887 [SPEAKER_02]: The hallway in front of the restrooms at the queer bar brings up a strong memory for you. 23:53.268 --> 23:54.949 [SPEAKER_02]: What did you experience there? 23:55.770 --> 24:05.560 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like in my general experience, the lines for the bathrooms have a lot to do with the beginnings of relationships. 24:07.602 --> 24:08.843 [SPEAKER_02]: That's a great way to put it. 24:08.863 --> 24:10.124 [SPEAKER_02]: That's a great way to put it. 24:11.805 --> 24:19.450 [SPEAKER_02]: And so I feel like maybe it was like in the first year that we had landed here and the bar was open. 24:19.470 --> 24:29.198 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like maybe the toilet was plugged up and so I was going back there with a plunger. 24:29.778 --> 24:32.000 [SPEAKER_02]: And I was walking on the hallway and 24:34.141 --> 24:42.424 [SPEAKER_02]: I met eyes with somebody in line for the bathroom, and that is my partner, and has been my partner since. 24:43.945 --> 24:44.105 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh! 24:44.265 --> 24:51.148 [SPEAKER_02]: So the experience was a first attraction that developed into a love story. 24:52.308 --> 24:53.589 [SPEAKER_00]: That's so sweet. 24:53.909 --> 24:56.310 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, you had a plunger holding a plunger. 24:56.330 --> 24:59.651 [SPEAKER_03]: Listen, you fall in love with people at the worst moments. 25:03.870 --> 25:09.294 [SPEAKER_00]: That mean they've, they've been together since like, the probably closer to the beginning, right? 25:09.634 --> 25:09.994 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 25:10.675 --> 25:12.056 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, this is so sweet. 25:12.156 --> 25:13.937 [SPEAKER_00]: It's so sweet. 25:15.338 --> 25:19.161 [SPEAKER_02]: And it also, it was embarrassing because I was kind of plunger and that's not even my job. 25:19.681 --> 25:24.805 [SPEAKER_02]: But like, we were so busy and no one knows anything because it's like that first year is chaos. 25:25.125 --> 25:25.445 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah. 25:25.465 --> 25:28.608 [SPEAKER_03]: And so it was just like, who's, who has a free two minutes? 25:31.629 --> 25:38.630 [SPEAKER_00]: You're like, this isn't even what I'm supposed to be behind the, okay, whatever. 25:39.931 --> 25:44.292 [SPEAKER_00]: Shite, which regular guests at the queer bar, the inner belt? 25:44.892 --> 25:45.712 [SPEAKER_00]: Do you dislike? 25:46.052 --> 25:49.773 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, why is it still okay for you that this person is there? 25:50.753 --> 26:02.117 [SPEAKER_00]: I think the person that I dislike here is my ex and the reason why I let him keep coming around is because he keeps bringing us the plants that we don't have. 26:02.637 --> 26:07.159 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think it's his way of trying to make it like better for like our breakup. 26:07.199 --> 26:08.819 [SPEAKER_00]: He's trying to win me back with these. 26:09.359 --> 26:13.101 [SPEAKER_00]: And if it wasn't for these plants, he would not be allowed inside. 26:13.141 --> 26:14.701 [SPEAKER_00]: He's brought us like snap dragons, 26:17.062 --> 26:23.864 [SPEAKER_00]: It's beautiful that all of these things and it's just like if you did it to have these You would be nowhere near us. 26:25.045 --> 26:26.245 [SPEAKER_02]: What was this? 26:26.405 --> 26:27.645 [SPEAKER_02]: How did you meet this ex? 26:28.546 --> 26:39.569 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's from the corporate life Okay, I think I think I left all of that behind like we got into an argument and You two were probably already like 26:40.036 --> 26:43.878 [SPEAKER_00]: trying to get me to leave and he was the only thing keeping me to like stay. 26:43.898 --> 26:45.859 [SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, okay, that happened. 26:45.879 --> 26:46.299 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, cool. 26:46.559 --> 26:47.680 [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, let's go. 26:48.500 --> 26:49.841 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, I know we've been talking about this. 26:49.861 --> 26:51.181 [SPEAKER_00]: We could go like right now. 26:51.562 --> 26:56.924 [SPEAKER_00]: And then he figured out where the inner belt was and like, okay, so hey, babe, I'm sorry. 26:57.324 --> 27:00.186 [SPEAKER_00]: Remember, I remember you loved all of these plans. 27:00.606 --> 27:01.967 [SPEAKER_00]: Here are like 17 at first. 27:03.746 --> 27:19.274 [SPEAKER_02]: it's still he's been going out of for five years by the way so when when he brings a plant is he like okay where's my free drink or is he just bringing the plants and ignoring the the entitlement of the free beverage. 27:19.314 --> 27:31.299 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's ignoring the free drinks like I still make him take the free drink so he does it like so it does it feel like it's just he's here because of me even though I know he's here because of me so make sure he gets his because if he keeps 27:32.700 --> 27:35.561 [SPEAKER_00]: He's going to think it's going to start thinking it's a thing and it's not a thing. 27:36.022 --> 27:41.645 [SPEAKER_03]: Despite the fact that he followed you across space, he's showing up. 27:41.725 --> 27:42.805 [SPEAKER_00]: Keep showing up. 27:43.265 --> 27:46.767 [SPEAKER_01]: It's just like the second that he steps into the bar. 27:46.867 --> 27:48.888 [SPEAKER_01]: All of the staffers are just like side eyeing. 27:51.029 --> 27:51.850 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, he's back. 27:52.130 --> 27:53.310 [SPEAKER_00]: He's back again. 27:54.431 --> 27:56.632 [SPEAKER_03]: Just calling free like somebody opens the back door. 27:56.672 --> 27:57.773 [SPEAKER_03]: Just calling for you. 27:58.893 --> 28:01.014 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, he's, oh he's back. 28:01.134 --> 28:01.575 [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, cool. 28:03.403 --> 28:03.883 [SPEAKER_00]: Bring him in. 28:04.064 --> 28:05.405 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I just take a plan. 28:05.585 --> 28:07.206 [SPEAKER_00]: Like make sure he takes his drink. 28:07.366 --> 28:11.710 [SPEAKER_00]: It just, it's like probably like once every six months he comes back. 28:11.910 --> 28:14.813 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's one of us has a good relationship in this bar. 28:15.153 --> 28:20.338 [SPEAKER_01]: During a party at the queer bar, you gave an embarrassing performance. 28:20.618 --> 28:22.640 [SPEAKER_01]: Who cheered for you nonetheless? 28:23.400 --> 28:27.344 [SPEAKER_01]: I think it was like open-mic karaoke. 28:27.364 --> 28:28.405 [SPEAKER_01]: Ha ha ha. 28:31.936 --> 28:58.209 [SPEAKER_01]: oh my gosh there's this one time I went to a bar and like the setup was basically like three U-shaped couches and they were all facing towards like the eastern wall and the eastern wall had a bunch of TVs on it and there were two mics that floated around the room so it was basically one karaoke machine that like a whole bar of people had to like basically like pass the mics around 28:59.249 --> 29:08.500 [SPEAKER_01]: it was so chaotic, like I kind of imagined because like we're not a karaoke bar, when we have our karaoke night it's something similar to that. 29:09.201 --> 29:13.045 [SPEAKER_01]: And I think I gave it embarrassing performance. 29:13.666 --> 29:16.429 [SPEAKER_01]: I think maybe just feeling really inspired one day. 29:17.529 --> 29:35.637 [SPEAKER_01]: Essentially, my character is in charge of scheduling people and getting some of those performers and maybe even having to like wine and dying people when they come through to like try to help make those like all star evening performances that try to sell tickets and all of that. 29:38.883 --> 30:01.788 [SPEAKER_01]: maybe they were like oh yeah you could definitely sing this song and my character just absolutely off key just cannot give a single good note it's voice cracking it was probably the bar stuff that cheered me on nevertheless like maybe one of your characters or if not both. 30:02.328 --> 30:03.208 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh absolutely. 30:04.700 --> 30:23.033 [SPEAKER_01]: because like, especially if it was like during a karaoke night where we have like all star singers, they're all gonna be like, you know, trying to like sing their hearts out and like make it beautiful and memorable, but like we live there and like, we know that the events just have fun, right? 30:23.053 --> 30:27.496 [SPEAKER_01]: The thing about karaoke is like, you don't have the point isn't to sound good. 30:27.536 --> 30:28.217 [SPEAKER_01]: The point is, 30:28.870 --> 30:29.711 [SPEAKER_02]: just have a good time. 30:30.151 --> 30:39.580 [SPEAKER_02]: I've decided that my character's name is Sammy, so Sammy definitely cheers and then we'll also slide a shot across the bar to you immediately once you're finished. 30:41.702 --> 30:42.784 [SPEAKER_01]: I love that. 30:43.104 --> 30:43.905 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god. 30:46.747 --> 30:47.828 [SPEAKER_02]: Sammy. 30:48.569 --> 30:52.233 [SPEAKER_02]: What smell always make you make you think of inner belts? 30:53.259 --> 31:20.563 [SPEAKER_02]: I think crazy enough because there are so many plants in here, like the earth, dirt and soil and that fresh scent that plants give off in the mornings, like that is, you know, outside of the stench of alcohol and spilled drinks and that sort of thing, it's really the the rooting source of the bar, which is the garden and the life that we kind of grow here. 31:21.684 --> 31:22.244 [SPEAKER_00]: I love that. 31:22.304 --> 31:24.145 [SPEAKER_00]: That's sweet. 31:24.505 --> 31:25.186 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, goodness. 31:25.686 --> 31:26.306 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my gosh. 31:26.426 --> 31:36.011 [SPEAKER_01]: Wait, if the if if like we have so like literally so many plants, that would probably mean that we have to keep it kind of warm and humid. 31:36.412 --> 31:37.312 [UNKNOWN]: Oh no. 31:37.732 --> 31:40.354 [SPEAKER_00]: Or at least in the airbase plants. 31:40.474 --> 31:41.654 [SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't matter if you're safe. 31:46.957 --> 31:47.157 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate it. 31:47.177 --> 31:47.418 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:47.438 --> 31:47.658 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:47.678 --> 31:47.898 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:47.918 --> 31:48.159 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:48.179 --> 31:48.399 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:48.419 --> 31:48.639 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:48.659 --> 31:48.880 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:48.900 --> 31:49.120 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:49.140 --> 31:49.400 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:49.420 --> 31:49.641 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:49.661 --> 31:49.881 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:49.901 --> 31:50.141 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:50.161 --> 31:50.382 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:50.402 --> 31:50.622 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:50.642 --> 31:50.882 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:50.903 --> 31:51.123 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:51.143 --> 31:51.363 [SPEAKER_03]: I hate you. 31:51.383 --> 31:51.604 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:51.624 --> 31:51.864 [UNKNOWN]: I hate you. 31:51.884 --> 31:52.184 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:52.204 --> 31:52.425 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:52.445 --> 31:52.665 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:52.685 --> 31:52.945 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:52.965 --> 31:53.186 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:53.206 --> 31:53.426 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:53.446 --> 31:53.686 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:53.706 --> 31:53.927 [UNKNOWN]: I hate you. 31:53.947 --> 31:54.187 [UNKNOWN]: I hate you. 31:54.207 --> 31:54.427 [UNKNOWN]: I hate you. 31:54.447 --> 31:54.668 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:54.688 --> 31:54.928 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:54.948 --> 31:55.329 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:55.349 --> 31:55.649 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:55.669 --> 31:55.970 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:55.990 --> 31:56.210 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:56.230 --> 31:56.590 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:56.631 --> 31:56.851 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:56.871 --> 31:57.131 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:57.191 --> 31:57.452 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:57.472 --> 31:57.732 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:57.752 --> 31:57.992 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:58.012 --> 31:58.473 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:58.493 --> 31:58.794 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:58.814 --> 31:59.034 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:59.054 --> 31:59.294 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:59.314 --> 31:59.535 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:59.555 --> 31:59.795 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 31:59.815 --> 32:00.135 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 32:00.155 --> 32:00.416 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 32:00.436 --> 32:00.696 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 32:00.716 --> 32:00.977 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 32:00.997 --> 32:01.217 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 32:01.237 --> 32:01.477 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 32:01.497 --> 32:01.718 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you. 32:01.738 --> 32:01.938 [SPEAKER_00]: I hate you 32:02.018 --> 32:06.421 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it gets sweaty enough in there when there are dance parties, with the old need humidity. 32:06.841 --> 32:23.952 [SPEAKER_02]: I also think because we have so many rooms though, like the actual bar itself, like the plant life in there can probably be a little bit more sporadic, but then like the lounge rooms or the other with the gardening rooms, like with the abundance, we can probably change the temperatures around it stuff. 32:24.332 --> 32:25.333 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 32:25.353 --> 32:28.675 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm also thinking of like all the clubs that I've been to that are like, 32:29.322 --> 32:36.444 [SPEAKER_00]: three separate floors of three different club environments that's what I'm picturing right now It's like okay cool. 32:36.464 --> 32:47.747 [SPEAKER_00]: This one is like the smooth music and above that we got like the loud music and this is just like the lounge area But there was a self defense workshop at the inner belt. 32:48.167 --> 32:50.288 [SPEAKER_00]: Who did you go home with afterwards? 32:53.449 --> 32:55.429 [SPEAKER_03]: God damn if it's not your instructor key on 32:59.846 --> 33:09.091 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh god, oh actually wait, hold on, oh so I have decided that my character's name is Chicago because I thought of the movie earlier. 33:10.091 --> 33:12.713 [SPEAKER_01]: That's such a great cowboy b-bob name, by the way. 33:13.053 --> 33:14.333 [SPEAKER_01]: Right, oh. 33:14.514 --> 33:16.094 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna have to watch cowboy b-bob now. 33:16.134 --> 33:16.995 [SPEAKER_01]: You do, you do, you do, you do. 33:17.015 --> 33:18.796 [SPEAKER_00]: That's so good, it's so good. 33:18.896 --> 33:19.936 [SPEAKER_01]: Watch the anime. 33:19.956 --> 33:22.978 [SPEAKER_00]: It's such shameless plug. 33:24.542 --> 33:24.662 [SPEAKER_01]: on. 33:24.702 --> 33:25.222 [SPEAKER_01]: We got her. 33:26.322 --> 33:27.183 [SPEAKER_00]: Not another one. 33:27.203 --> 33:27.663 [SPEAKER_01]: Let's go. 33:27.723 --> 33:29.303 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, wait, I haven't watched it yet. 33:29.943 --> 33:32.184 [SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, you were broken. 33:34.364 --> 33:38.125 [SPEAKER_01]: So we have recorded proof that you're going to listen to it. 33:38.665 --> 33:42.306 [SPEAKER_00]: Everybody who listen to this check in to see if Kenzie has actually watched it. 33:50.626 --> 33:53.147 [SPEAKER_00]: because of somebody who has been brought up already. 33:53.787 --> 33:58.629 [SPEAKER_00]: I think the person who I went back home with was soil. 33:59.069 --> 34:03.611 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think soil was originally the self-defense teacher. 34:05.572 --> 34:07.112 [SPEAKER_00]: And now he just works here. 34:07.752 --> 34:10.714 [SPEAKER_00]: And we definitely have a poly-relationship. 34:10.734 --> 34:15.915 [SPEAKER_00]: We definitely have a, which is the reason why he does not care about my ex coming around. 34:15.955 --> 34:17.196 [SPEAKER_00]: He's like, yeah, whatever, do what you want. 34:18.129 --> 34:28.220 [SPEAKER_00]: But now he still hosts his self defense classes, but he also does help out with taking over the plans and taking care of specifically the ones that Mike tried to fight back. 34:29.077 --> 34:32.019 [SPEAKER_02]: Why did I say soil because of plants? 34:32.259 --> 34:37.143 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like the name it should be spelled so greenishly not the way that it's supposed to be. 34:37.223 --> 34:39.324 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, and so why are you here? 34:39.404 --> 34:39.884 [SPEAKER_03]: Something. 34:39.904 --> 34:42.026 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, it is definitely. 34:42.046 --> 34:43.047 [SPEAKER_00]: That's a wily. 34:43.867 --> 34:49.031 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm, hey, if y'all see a character name, soil spelled like that, don't ask. 34:52.593 --> 34:55.153 [SPEAKER_01]: Who is your favorite guest at the inner belt? 34:55.394 --> 34:55.714 [SPEAKER_01]: Why? 34:55.734 --> 34:58.374 [SPEAKER_01]: The favorite guest is not even human. 34:58.534 --> 35:05.075 [SPEAKER_01]: It's definitely like someone's dog or something. 35:05.235 --> 35:06.595 [SPEAKER_01]: Will be a lot more Christmas. 35:07.696 --> 35:11.696 [SPEAKER_03]: All space pets in the bar so it could be the weirdest looking creature. 35:11.996 --> 35:12.876 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah. 35:12.916 --> 35:20.538 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not going to, we're going to make it a little more creative than just Einstein the Corgi, which is a famous character from Cowboy Beep Up. 35:21.898 --> 35:27.922 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, it's gonna be the fradious looking thing ever. 35:28.162 --> 35:41.351 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm imagining like a grizzled kind of like terrier, something that just like crawls through the ducks of someone's ship and like just make sure that there's no pests there. 35:41.691 --> 35:43.633 [SPEAKER_01]: Like a little rat catcher kind of thing. 35:44.353 --> 35:45.974 [SPEAKER_01]: His name will be 35:50.915 --> 35:59.624 [SPEAKER_01]: If you turned this little dog into a person, he'd definitely be like a veteran soldier of some kind, you know, that kind of vibe. 35:59.664 --> 36:00.585 [SPEAKER_01]: He's so shit. 36:00.805 --> 36:03.447 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he's seen some shit. 36:03.467 --> 36:13.797 [SPEAKER_01]: Just like smash cut to this like, he's like in the vents, and you just see his little face and he's looking out the vents, he's witnessing some horrific space scene in the cargo bay of his ship, and they just like, 36:15.298 --> 36:16.599 [SPEAKER_01]: He's like little dog nails. 36:16.619 --> 36:17.540 [SPEAKER_01]: He's going down the vents. 36:17.820 --> 36:18.661 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, for sure. 36:18.681 --> 36:20.282 [SPEAKER_01]: Meatball has seen some stuff. 36:20.802 --> 36:22.403 [SPEAKER_01]: Meatball, the red dog. 36:23.184 --> 36:23.404 [UNKNOWN]: Yeah. 36:23.864 --> 36:25.646 [SPEAKER_01]: But he's retired now. 36:25.786 --> 36:27.547 [SPEAKER_01]: So he lives a comfortable life. 36:27.587 --> 36:29.928 [SPEAKER_01]: He comes visit with his mom. 36:30.649 --> 36:32.810 [SPEAKER_01]: He's probably a really sweet person. 36:32.830 --> 36:41.476 [SPEAKER_01]: Like maybe we even have like a little, like we carry a small stalk of like dog treats just for me just for when people visit. 36:42.417 --> 36:50.389 [SPEAKER_02]: We have a water bowl and it didn't have a name on it, but now like in really bad handwriting it just says meatball across it. 36:50.549 --> 36:52.372 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's just like scribbled into it. 36:52.632 --> 36:54.435 [SPEAKER_00]: He's got his own like little dog bed. 36:55.238 --> 37:19.620 [SPEAKER_03]: actually can't I think of you funny if your character tried to like laser cut engrave meatball into the into the bowl and it's just the worst and it's like yeah it's like listen I'm not good at the laser cutting you guys know that okay this is the best I got for you meatball in a crisis you found support at the internet in about what happened 37:20.450 --> 37:30.914 [SPEAKER_02]: We were talking about, like, not to bring the vibe down, but we were talking about, like, corporate entity, capitalism being the bad guy. 37:30.934 --> 37:37.436 [SPEAKER_02]: I think maybe, like, I had, like, family living in a nearby neighborhood. 37:38.556 --> 37:53.014 [SPEAKER_02]: and you know a large corporation came in and stole like the property out from underneath people who lived there for a really long time and so in the crisis of like 37:54.295 --> 38:01.921 [SPEAKER_02]: having to like re-house people and the land wasn't bought, it was just like taken. 38:02.101 --> 38:11.929 [SPEAKER_02]: So like there wasn't any financial game for the people there, so like in that chaos of like trying to re-house, trying to fight back against the sale of the land. 38:12.269 --> 38:19.675 [SPEAKER_02]: I probably came and honestly I've got support from YouTube mostly because we've known each other for so long. 38:23.459 --> 38:31.799 [SPEAKER_02]: at the queer bar where Celia mentioned earlier where we're like open during the day but it's not like party time and I'm I'm wondering if there's like a facilitation here of 38:32.975 --> 38:47.826 [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe not like really therapy of that sort, but like people are around like civil servants kind of working to help the community and people can actually come during the day and try to find those social services and support for those things. 38:47.886 --> 38:52.990 [SPEAKER_02]: So I think maybe that was an inciting incident for us to build that into the space. 38:54.292 --> 39:05.109 [SPEAKER_00]: I think also because like, at least for me what I know about like the queer bars that I free-muted like, especially when I was younger, they were the heartbeat of the community. 39:05.529 --> 39:08.274 [SPEAKER_00]: So if anything needed to happen or if like, 39:09.749 --> 39:25.039 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that we also probably like put on like a benefit or something to raise funds for this, like for the people who are affected by this, that way we can give back and actually help the people who we are a part of, especially supporting Sammy. 39:25.680 --> 39:27.981 [SPEAKER_00]: You and my are a person on the queer bar team. 39:28.302 --> 39:29.803 [SPEAKER_00]: What impresses you most about? 39:29.823 --> 39:30.623 [SPEAKER_00]: Who? 39:31.504 --> 39:33.005 [SPEAKER_00]: Who all do we hire here? 39:33.681 --> 39:42.423 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like we can have like a full, you know, full staff of bartenders, barbex, probably are we telling some food here? 39:42.443 --> 39:43.304 [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe we have a cook. 39:43.344 --> 39:45.344 [SPEAKER_02]: A chef, some kitchen staff. 39:46.324 --> 39:57.087 [SPEAKER_00]: I think where my mind is going is like, the person who helps coordinate all the, all the things that we do to give back, that's who, like, I am my other most. 39:57.387 --> 39:59.588 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think that might be Stella's character. 39:59.918 --> 40:20.776 [SPEAKER_00]: I've just cited to name my character, L, like the letter L, just the letter L. I think it might be L, like if you're the one like coordinating all of like everything, because I think for Chicago, it's like one of those things where it's like, I'm good with like flying a ship. 40:20.896 --> 40:26.701 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm really good with my hands and things, but you have like the mental capacity to do all of these things. 40:27.653 --> 40:29.414 [SPEAKER_00]: And that astounds me. 40:29.474 --> 40:33.116 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm a simple farm boy from the from the asteroid 278 over there. 40:34.016 --> 40:38.638 [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I really look like I think they I admire L so much. 40:39.939 --> 40:48.443 [SPEAKER_01]: This will sweet you once screwed up an important matter and thereby endangered the clear of our 40:49.193 --> 40:49.833 [SPEAKER_01]: What did you do? 40:49.853 --> 40:50.674 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god. 40:50.694 --> 40:55.115 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, unfortunately directed right at you. 40:55.716 --> 40:59.037 [SPEAKER_03]: It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's just a matter of time. 40:59.057 --> 41:16.824 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, 41:18.265 --> 41:39.680 [SPEAKER_01]: host something and because of just so much busy work, L didn't vet everyone or didn't do it as well as they would have liked if they had more time and it was just more of like an oversight issue and ended up bringing in someone 41:40.355 --> 41:48.660 [SPEAKER_01]: who essentially, like, I don't know if we were to get like genres of, so maybe they have like a crime background, right? 41:48.700 --> 42:05.889 [SPEAKER_01]: Like literal, like crime syndicate, like maybe someone who was actually literally dangerous, like maybe a wanted person for like grand theft spaceship or something, you know, or instead of spaceship. 42:07.305 --> 42:17.111 [SPEAKER_00]: The NFL starts to move all of a sudden that even actually, yeah, like what if they did try to hijack the the Interbell? 42:17.131 --> 42:30.019 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like what if what if they they ended up getting like maybe it was like an event that required like multiple days of something like Maybe it was a week longer something so that 42:30.819 --> 42:31.940 [SPEAKER_01]: And visuals. 42:34.841 --> 42:43.205 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so this one, like, this one's sleazebag is responsible for ruining pride week one time. 42:44.466 --> 42:50.749 [SPEAKER_00]: What if this sleazebag is the one who was trying to buy the inner belt off of the original owner? 42:52.850 --> 42:58.873 [SPEAKER_00]: And then it was like, we came in and swooped it up and this is his trying to get it back out from under us. 43:00.056 --> 43:15.025 [SPEAKER_01]: I like that, and we just didn't, like, Elden connect the dots of, like, who this person was and, like, why they're here and was just kind of went with the assumption of, oh, you're here to, like, try to help out with this thing, right? 43:15.885 --> 43:21.949 [SPEAKER_01]: And, essentially, they get brought onto this team that's gonna be helping us for a week. 43:22.829 --> 43:27.512 [SPEAKER_01]: And I actually really like that that they literally try to steal the ship from under us. 43:28.193 --> 43:32.328 [SPEAKER_02]: Who at the queer bar have you spent the most nights talking with until dawn? 43:32.875 --> 43:34.616 [SPEAKER_03]: That's such a wholesome prompt. 43:35.257 --> 43:50.929 [SPEAKER_02]: I think in honor of old queers, there's an individual who comes into the bar as a regular comes in like every day and just has story upon story to tell. 43:50.989 --> 43:54.652 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to actually name this after a specific man that I know. 43:55.232 --> 43:59.816 [SPEAKER_02]: Terry, who actually wears a shepherd's hat. 44:02.878 --> 44:17.443 [SPEAKER_02]: And just, like, expounded to me when I was working at this dive bar in my city about queer history and his experiences and the leather community and it bars in the past and like how the community has changed and all that type of stuff. 44:18.003 --> 44:28.627 [SPEAKER_02]: And I feel like just somebody like that who is just kind of telling stories about, you know, where we came from and, you know, where we're going. 44:32.052 --> 44:39.975 [SPEAKER_01]: What do you think is like one of the most profound topics that you talked about? 44:40.755 --> 44:55.101 [SPEAKER_02]: I think maybe about how identity used to really mean something where it was the connecting factor between people. 44:55.121 --> 44:55.341 [SPEAKER_02]: It was 44:56.121 --> 45:24.154 [SPEAKER_02]: kind of what revolution was built off of, and the wants or the urge to maybe find a place where that can happen again, and I'll say for the real world, maybe without all of the bad stuff that that came with, but without all the exclusionary aspects of that, but this idea of where like as we've been talking about like a gay bar should be a place where you can go and find community 45:25.575 --> 45:28.597 [SPEAKER_02]: And I think in present day, that's not the case. 45:29.017 --> 45:33.299 [SPEAKER_02]: And just like how important and how strong that made the community as a whole. 45:33.880 --> 45:40.523 [SPEAKER_02]: And I think that kind of spurned Sammy into being like, well, that's the vision for the interval. 45:40.963 --> 45:43.465 [SPEAKER_01]: I love it, it's so nice. 45:43.565 --> 45:44.445 [SPEAKER_00]: I love these characters. 45:44.505 --> 45:45.146 [SPEAKER_00]: I love this place. 45:46.566 --> 45:47.567 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to be honest. 45:48.247 --> 45:49.588 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm stealing the interval. 45:50.909 --> 45:52.850 [SPEAKER_01]: Someone already tried doing that. 45:53.918 --> 45:55.599 [SPEAKER_00]: And let's see how that worked out for him. 45:56.140 --> 45:59.062 [SPEAKER_00]: What do we what are we end up doing with him by the way, do we just like? 46:01.343 --> 46:06.987 [SPEAKER_03]: Like yeah, what is what is what is our moral thoughts on cops? 46:07.127 --> 46:13.591 [SPEAKER_00]: Notice I didn't say what I've like did we call the cops know what do we do with him? 46:14.231 --> 46:16.093 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god They probably had to work it off 46:17.208 --> 46:20.590 [SPEAKER_03]: He's like a, you made him sound like he's a bad guy. 46:20.610 --> 46:26.073 [SPEAKER_03]: Feel like we should not, I just mean you maybe we should not keep him around to work it all. 46:28.095 --> 46:35.519 [SPEAKER_01]: I think we probably would have tried to figure out, like, all right, why do you need our shit, right? 46:36.320 --> 46:43.684 [SPEAKER_01]: And like, maybe try to get to the root problem of all of it because it's like, you're not going to be taking the inner belt. 46:43.744 --> 46:45.065 [SPEAKER_01]: Like that's just not happening. 46:46.090 --> 46:48.031 [SPEAKER_00]: Stella, I love that you say it gets to the root problem because I said make and plant food. 46:48.051 --> 46:48.131 [SPEAKER_00]: Yup. 46:48.151 --> 47:04.197 [SPEAKER_03]: Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe 47:05.535 --> 47:10.656 [SPEAKER_00]: What inner belt project that is close to your heart has not yet been realized? 47:11.536 --> 47:18.838 [SPEAKER_00]: I think one of the things that Chicago really is like pushing for, that it's just like, it takes time to get there. 47:20.478 --> 47:31.740 [SPEAKER_00]: I think he really wants the, like at least one of the gardens to be like a public garden where people can come and get food, like where it's like, it's sustainable and that is not 47:36.286 --> 47:43.976 [SPEAKER_00]: a giant middle finger to corporate where it's like they don't he doesn't want people to have to fight for food or anything like that he wants it to be. 47:44.926 --> 47:46.627 [SPEAKER_00]: and open market for everybody. 47:47.027 --> 47:55.891 [SPEAKER_00]: It's just taken a lot longer because everybody keeps bringing us dangerous fruit like instead of like, okay, so I need cucumbers, I need tomatoes. 47:56.251 --> 48:10.997 [SPEAKER_00]: So I think like, he's been putting like out that we need more sustainable food that people can actually eat and he just wants it to be running on it on that way we don't have to worry about like, okay, cool, we've ran. 48:11.377 --> 48:13.921 [SPEAKER_00]: We ran through this and we don't have enough for anybody else. 48:13.961 --> 48:16.945 [SPEAKER_00]: He wants it to be a year-round and that takes time to build up. 48:16.965 --> 48:21.372 [SPEAKER_00]: I have to turn him into a fucking humanitarian. 48:21.472 --> 48:22.113 [SPEAKER_00]: I love this kid. 48:22.133 --> 48:22.834 [SPEAKER_00]: I love this kid. 48:22.854 --> 48:23.875 [SPEAKER_00]: I love him so much. 48:25.584 --> 48:29.527 [SPEAKER_01]: I can't remember, oh, it's called weaponized incompetence. 48:29.587 --> 48:36.893 [SPEAKER_01]: Like they're, they're, I was trying to think of like, because there are people who, no, maybe weaponized innocence. 48:36.973 --> 48:45.941 [SPEAKER_01]: I can't remember, basically the idea that like, sometimes people are trying to do a thing where they're trying to help. 48:46.241 --> 48:47.582 [SPEAKER_01]: But they're not doing the research. 48:47.702 --> 48:48.863 [SPEAKER_01]: They're not doing it carefully. 48:48.883 --> 48:54.168 [SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, they're trying to give us all this food and it's like some of it, you know, isn't 48:54.888 --> 49:05.796 [SPEAKER_01]: like healthy or clean or safe, you know, and it's like, it doesn't actually help because it causes a new problem, which is something that somebody has to fix. 49:06.556 --> 49:11.720 [SPEAKER_02]: It's like the people who complain that the food bank has like requirements for what you give them. 49:11.760 --> 49:18.865 [SPEAKER_02]: They look well it's just food I'll just give food and it's like, well no it has to be usable for the people that we're providing the food for. 49:19.065 --> 49:19.565 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you. 49:20.246 --> 49:23.508 [SPEAKER_01]: There was a great theme party at the queer bar. 49:23.988 --> 49:24.810 [SPEAKER_01]: What was the theme? 49:24.910 --> 49:25.771 [SPEAKER_01]: What did you wear? 49:25.791 --> 49:30.460 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like maybe we should all answer the what did you wear? 49:30.480 --> 49:30.721 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 49:30.741 --> 49:31.983 [SPEAKER_00]: Please, of course. 49:32.003 --> 49:34.127 [SPEAKER_00]: Please describe what our characters look like. 49:35.454 --> 49:46.082 [SPEAKER_01]: My immediate thought is obviously a Halloween costume party, but that's because my birthday is really close to Halloween, and every party is just, every one of my birthday parties has always been a costume party. 49:47.003 --> 49:50.585 [SPEAKER_01]: But a scene, something more specific might be fun. 49:51.886 --> 49:58.791 [SPEAKER_01]: What would be a great theme party in the world of, like, probably based cowboys? 50:01.388 --> 50:03.029 [SPEAKER_02]: You can make up a holiday if you want. 50:03.289 --> 50:04.910 [SPEAKER_02]: You're somewhere in there. 50:04.950 --> 50:05.210 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah. 50:05.970 --> 50:09.712 [SPEAKER_02]: This was the day in history where frogs fell from this guy. 50:09.792 --> 50:12.714 [SPEAKER_02]: And then that was a really non-binary thing of me to say. 50:12.734 --> 50:14.435 [SPEAKER_02]: As Sammy. 50:14.455 --> 50:18.697 [SPEAKER_01]: Just Sammy, I love green frogs. 50:19.357 --> 50:21.718 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like now he does love it. 50:21.818 --> 50:22.199 [SPEAKER_01]: Love it. 50:23.281 --> 50:30.406 [SPEAKER_01]: We had a theme party where everyone came and some kind of animal costume. 50:31.186 --> 50:39.331 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, there was a theme of like, like, the zoo goes wild or like, you know, basically like animals unleashed, right? 50:40.652 --> 50:48.217 [SPEAKER_01]: L is going to be a six foot tall transmask. 50:49.991 --> 50:52.522 [SPEAKER_01]: Korean person, they them. 50:54.348 --> 51:20.398 [SPEAKER_01]: who came to this party wearing like a hippo onesie i like the idea that like it's just like they just did not have time to like get any kind of like elaborate costumes they just bought this onesie and it's got like little little ears and it's got like a big floppy like hood part 51:21.118 --> 51:36.414 [SPEAKER_01]: I like to think that it's just way too short, so it's like writing up on their calves, you know, like on their like down to their forearms, they just don't fit in it at all, but had to wear something to the party that they planned. 51:37.295 --> 51:41.576 [SPEAKER_02]: And that's just the vibe of Elle. 51:42.236 --> 51:44.317 [SPEAKER_02]: Sammy is also transmasky. 51:44.337 --> 51:55.100 [SPEAKER_02]: They kind of like really, like, have like a short skinny individual who, on 40 doesn't look like they've really 51:55.540 --> 52:23.170 [SPEAKER_02]: Aged up it just unfortunately like still looks a little bit kittish kind of like of just a mop of like curly brown hair I think showed up as and I don't know how to pronounce this frog's name, but I think it's like et al opus Which just like a full like leather black skin tight suit with LED purple like circles on it because that's what this frog looks like 52:23.990 --> 52:28.593 [SPEAKER_02]: So, like, pretty minimal costume, but was right on for what that frog looks like. 52:29.593 --> 52:30.374 [SPEAKER_02]: How, yeah. 52:31.554 --> 52:32.515 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's say about, like, 52:33.231 --> 52:43.276 [SPEAKER_00]: 5, 11, nearing 6 foot tall black man, normally bald, but this time is like wearing like a piece, like a little to pay. 52:43.436 --> 52:50.540 [SPEAKER_00]: A little situation with a little fluke of blonde hair in the front, a very super skinned height. 52:51.100 --> 52:54.502 [SPEAKER_00]: You can't tell where the skin begins and where the, where the soup starts. 52:55.082 --> 52:58.145 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, but it's a full jumpsuit that is like in cheetah print. 52:58.785 --> 53:16.919 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, with this full big open collar, it's very fifth element coded and it has like the actual like cheetah tail that is like, uh, there's robotics and it wears switches on its own and he's just very much so life of the party because today I don't have to work with my hands. 53:17.079 --> 53:18.020 [SPEAKER_00]: I could just be a people. 53:19.499 --> 53:24.544 [SPEAKER_02]: You used to have frequent disagreements with someone at the queer bar with someone at the interbellt. 53:24.884 --> 53:26.886 [SPEAKER_02]: How have you since become close friends? 53:27.687 --> 53:33.051 [SPEAKER_02]: I think it's one of those things where they were arguments about. 53:34.306 --> 53:49.274 [SPEAKER_02]: like kind of important things, but they weren't like a life or death and they were blown really out of proportion when the fighting happened and I'm sure that the disagreements weren't helped by the introduction of alcohol into that equation. 53:49.955 --> 53:52.596 [SPEAKER_02]: And so I think that it became one of those things. 53:52.676 --> 53:55.298 [SPEAKER_02]: It was like, I'm working here. 53:55.438 --> 53:56.298 [SPEAKER_02]: I have to be here. 53:56.338 --> 53:58.199 [SPEAKER_02]: This person obviously likes coming here. 53:58.219 --> 54:01.221 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to like close the doors to anybody. 54:01.660 --> 54:30.222 [SPEAKER_02]: unless it's like an actual problem and this is becoming like a personal issue and it was just one of those things were like when you start seeing somebody every day you talk to them every day there becomes a common ground with them where it's kind of like a coworker relationship where it's like you could be like this person is so irritating to me but if I really think about that then it's gonna ruin my day and I think it's kind of sort of a thing like that and I think after 54:30.962 --> 54:34.566 [SPEAKER_02]: It became more of a neutral thing where it'd be all this person's here again. 54:34.586 --> 54:37.109 [SPEAKER_02]: All in my eyes, but all right, what do you have in? 54:37.129 --> 54:38.010 [SPEAKER_02]: What's up with you today? 54:38.630 --> 54:42.655 [SPEAKER_02]: When the common ground was kind of set, then it was like, oh, maybe you are not really disagreeing. 54:42.695 --> 54:49.963 [SPEAKER_02]: Maybe we're saying talking around the subject or saying the same thing, but in different ways. 54:49.983 --> 54:51.304 [SPEAKER_02]: And... 54:53.503 --> 55:02.006 [SPEAKER_02]: probably found some common grounds in music and was able to, you know, develop a rough friendship out of that. 55:03.246 --> 55:07.367 [SPEAKER_03]: I have, I have beef now with this person that I haven't even given a name to. 55:07.387 --> 55:10.108 [SPEAKER_03]: I'm about to say. 55:10.408 --> 55:13.269 [SPEAKER_03]: I have beef with an imaginary person. 55:13.289 --> 55:15.950 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, you eventually worked it out. 55:16.950 --> 55:21.572 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's like, it's, it's a very stringuous common ground, but it's common ground nonetheless. 55:22.572 --> 55:25.237 [SPEAKER_00]: your ex still comes to the inner belt. 55:25.558 --> 55:27.421 [SPEAKER_00]: How do you feel about that? 55:27.742 --> 55:29.104 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like it's got to be another ex. 55:29.124 --> 55:30.066 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like it's got to be another ex. 55:30.086 --> 55:31.088 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like it's got to be another ex. 55:31.108 --> 55:31.969 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like it's got to be another ex. 55:31.989 --> 55:35.035 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like it's got to be another ex. 55:35.055 --> 55:35.135 [SPEAKER_01]: OK. 55:35.702 --> 55:43.148 [SPEAKER_01]: I love the idea that none of our characters have ever addressed the fact that multiple of your exes keep coming back to our bar. 55:43.509 --> 55:44.790 [SPEAKER_01]: Something you don't have to talk about. 55:45.751 --> 55:52.817 [SPEAKER_00]: They're not causing a scene at the beginning, they're still buying drinks, they're not causing a scene. 55:53.557 --> 55:57.541 [SPEAKER_00]: But boy, howdy, does it get tiring seeing these people show up? 55:58.201 --> 56:06.345 [SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, it's to the point I think Chicago can like plan the day of the week around when they show up. 56:06.605 --> 56:11.108 [SPEAKER_03]: You've lost track of what it is and that person walks in the door and you're like, oh, no, no. 56:11.168 --> 56:11.768 [SPEAKER_00]: It's Tuesday. 56:12.989 --> 56:13.309 [SPEAKER_00]: Got it. 56:13.729 --> 56:15.090 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's like, yeah, it's just like, 56:16.671 --> 56:23.578 [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, if they show up like clockwork and like on our certain schedule, that probably means that L knows it, too. 56:23.878 --> 56:26.561 [SPEAKER_00]: It's probably on your calendar, just to be like, all right, cool. 56:26.581 --> 56:27.161 [SPEAKER_00]: They'll be here. 56:27.201 --> 56:28.542 [SPEAKER_00]: Make sure we have this in stock. 56:28.863 --> 56:30.965 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't even know why they show up this time. 56:31.025 --> 56:34.909 [SPEAKER_03]: It's just, why am I going to come by? 56:35.409 --> 56:38.152 [SPEAKER_03]: I just want to be, I just want to be saved. 56:38.547 --> 56:41.690 [SPEAKER_00]: I just want to work with my plants and not deal with X's. 56:42.591 --> 56:46.294 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's just a patron at this, like, just to add some to it. 56:46.314 --> 56:52.199 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's just a patron who, like, I saw you come from across the vibe, across the bar, I saw your vibe, I liked it. 56:52.600 --> 56:58.305 [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, it's just, it didn't work out for, like, very, like, non-sensical reasons. 56:58.365 --> 56:59.446 [SPEAKER_00]: It's like, oh, like, 57:00.144 --> 57:01.365 [SPEAKER_00]: We can't see each other often. 57:01.385 --> 57:02.446 [SPEAKER_00]: You're across the galaxy. 57:02.586 --> 57:03.446 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm only over here. 57:03.506 --> 57:04.787 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, I'm staying here. 57:04.967 --> 57:05.768 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not piloting. 57:05.788 --> 57:06.608 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not moving around. 57:06.788 --> 57:07.929 [SPEAKER_00]: This is where I want to be. 57:08.430 --> 57:10.471 [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, it's just, they just keep coming back. 57:10.531 --> 57:10.991 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know. 57:11.311 --> 57:17.235 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think they bring the, they definitely do not bring plants, though, as a, as a piece offering, which I don't approve. 57:17.696 --> 57:18.476 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't approve that. 57:19.037 --> 57:24.020 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, if you're gonna come around at least bring a gift, but at least you are buying things in this bar. 57:24.734 --> 57:33.001 [SPEAKER_02]: I think at this point, Sammy calls a team meeting and sits everyone down and goes, okay, guys, I know that it worked for me, but that's kind of like an outlier situation and I do think that we should stop dating our client out. 57:33.101 --> 57:45.852 [SPEAKER_02]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha 57:47.495 --> 57:52.317 [SPEAKER_03]: And just saying, it doesn't seem to be making the space more positive. 57:53.297 --> 57:55.178 [SPEAKER_02]: It seems to be creating some tension. 57:55.198 --> 58:01.580 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they're still buying drinks and also like, I mean, fine. 58:01.680 --> 58:03.121 [SPEAKER_00]: I will cancel my date tonight. 58:03.729 --> 58:08.013 [SPEAKER_03]: You also, I think maybe you should stop bringing the dates to the bar for your dates. 58:08.273 --> 58:10.135 [SPEAKER_03]: I think maybe, maybe take them else. 58:10.215 --> 58:11.476 [SPEAKER_01]: This is also my house! 58:11.556 --> 58:12.797 [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, no, no. 58:12.978 --> 58:15.920 [SPEAKER_01]: Keep bringing them to the bar. 58:16.821 --> 58:20.284 [SPEAKER_01]: We need to, we need to swing trees. 58:20.324 --> 58:20.765 [SPEAKER_01]: The money. 58:20.785 --> 58:22.426 [SPEAKER_01]: We need to bring a private news. 58:22.486 --> 58:23.788 [SPEAKER_01]: Special on the menu. 58:24.248 --> 58:28.272 [SPEAKER_01]: We have this drink and plate combo going on. 58:28.881 --> 58:29.641 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, absolutely. 58:29.701 --> 58:31.682 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we'll make a dinner out of it. 58:31.762 --> 58:34.443 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so wait, do I do I cancel or do I keep it going? 58:35.043 --> 58:38.645 [SPEAKER_02]: I, listen, it's not in the, it's not in the code of conduct. 58:39.585 --> 58:41.886 [SPEAKER_02]: I just, as a friend to a friend. 58:44.487 --> 58:45.107 [SPEAKER_02]: Think about it. 58:45.227 --> 58:45.867 [SPEAKER_00]: Fine. 58:46.388 --> 58:47.528 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'll cancel yours too. 58:48.028 --> 58:49.249 [SPEAKER_02]: No, you're teaching about habits. 58:50.569 --> 58:51.149 [SPEAKER_01]: What do you mean? 58:51.810 --> 58:52.910 [SPEAKER_01]: It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a. 58:54.029 --> 58:56.931 [SPEAKER_01]: Call of Wispers like Diamond Drinking Minimum. 59:00.173 --> 59:00.833 [UNKNOWN]: I gotcha. 59:01.613 --> 59:07.257 [SPEAKER_01]: An opportunity for cooperation that would have helped the queer bar out financially fell through. 59:07.857 --> 59:10.639 [SPEAKER_01]: The deck is saying something to all of us. 59:11.439 --> 59:13.240 [SPEAKER_01]: Why does this relieve you? 59:14.121 --> 59:19.764 [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe there was an opportunity for us to get a partnership with the corporation that we all left. 59:20.348 --> 59:22.769 [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe there was like a chance to sell out. 59:23.350 --> 59:27.372 [SPEAKER_01]: There was a time where we were getting kind of desperate. 59:27.412 --> 59:32.255 [SPEAKER_01]: We were starting to slide into the red, and it was starting to cascade into something really bad. 59:33.095 --> 59:33.936 [SPEAKER_00]: And year two. 59:34.116 --> 59:34.856 [SPEAKER_01]: Year two. 59:35.156 --> 59:35.457 [SPEAKER_01]: Yep. 59:35.677 --> 59:42.661 [SPEAKER_01]: And so L has sent out a bunch of space notes out to people, because, 59:43.878 --> 59:51.032 [SPEAKER_01]: space male, you know, out into the ether and heard back from someone who 59:52.599 --> 59:54.300 [SPEAKER_01]: works at where we used to work. 59:54.660 --> 59:58.743 [SPEAKER_01]: And it would have just financially been a huge umbrella. 59:59.063 --> 01:00:14.354 [SPEAKER_01]: But I think El purposely missed the meeting or, you know, just like, oh no, connection dropped, you know, and it just did not commit to the conversation. 01:00:14.394 --> 01:00:16.435 [SPEAKER_01]: So we never really got anywhere with it. 01:00:16.775 --> 01:00:21.999 [SPEAKER_01]: And while I imagine like that made the next few months like extremely difficult for us, 01:00:22.452 --> 01:00:33.176 [SPEAKER_01]: because it didn't solve any problems, but Elle would have been so happy that we didn't sell out back to what we originally left, even through the hardship. 01:00:33.756 --> 01:00:36.277 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like we would all be an agreement to on that. 01:00:36.817 --> 01:00:38.117 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, oh yeah. 01:00:38.337 --> 01:00:46.220 [SPEAKER_02]: Understanding the reaching out and the seeing of it all, but then when it didn't work out, be like, that honestly, we were bad people. 01:00:47.160 --> 01:00:49.221 [SPEAKER_02]: If we had gone through it, this would be for bad people. 01:00:52.502 --> 01:01:07.626 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't even think L even like reached out to the old company is just like somebody from another company that you reached out to probably slated over to them and was like, hey, do you want to take in this and then when you saw that email you were like, oh no, oh no. 01:01:08.506 --> 01:01:21.350 [SPEAKER_01]: I think so, especially because like if it had been like year one like month two or month five, maybe L would have responded, but like into year two, we 01:01:21.957 --> 01:01:31.700 [SPEAKER_01]: have started to play our roots into the community and just kind of like understanding the importance of having that space and what we've created. 01:01:31.720 --> 01:01:35.841 [SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, it would just destroy the spirit of everything that we're doing. 01:01:36.421 --> 01:01:38.162 [SPEAKER_00]: And now look at us, you're five. 01:01:38.996 --> 01:01:41.137 [SPEAKER_01]: I know, you're fine! 01:01:41.357 --> 01:01:45.139 [SPEAKER_00]: You're fine, it was the right thing! 01:01:45.900 --> 01:01:47.161 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm so proud of us! 01:01:48.341 --> 01:01:49.542 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm so proud of us! 01:01:49.622 --> 01:01:52.283 [SPEAKER_02]: You're fine, and we're sitting in our bar reminiscing. 01:01:52.303 --> 01:01:54.445 [SPEAKER_02]: Ooh, that's better than that. 01:01:54.465 --> 01:01:56.045 [SPEAKER_00]: This is perfect, man. 01:01:56.326 --> 01:01:57.086 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I love this. 01:01:57.926 --> 01:02:02.009 [SPEAKER_02]: A certain song always reminds you of a special evening at the Interbell. 01:02:02.249 --> 01:02:03.770 [SPEAKER_02]: Why does this memory hurt? 01:02:04.532 --> 01:02:07.914 [SPEAKER_02]: Damn, I was thinking it was going to go in a different direction than that. 01:02:08.175 --> 01:02:11.737 [SPEAKER_01]: This game's spicy, kind of give you those twists. 01:02:12.918 --> 01:02:15.980 [SPEAKER_02]: I think that this song comes on. 01:02:16.981 --> 01:02:25.647 [SPEAKER_02]: And I think there might have been at the beginning a part of the community who saw us as outsiders. 01:02:25.707 --> 01:02:27.048 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, we weren't from here. 01:02:27.168 --> 01:02:32.992 [SPEAKER_02]: We came, we landed our ship, and we were like, now we're here, and we're taking over this place. 01:02:33.452 --> 01:02:36.654 [SPEAKER_02]: And so I feel like maybe at the beginning there was even some pushback on us. 01:02:37.555 --> 01:02:40.417 [SPEAKER_02]: For the scene that we were trying to do, we didn't have roots yet. 01:02:40.437 --> 01:02:41.878 [SPEAKER_02]: We hadn't made those connections. 01:02:41.898 --> 01:02:48.723 [SPEAKER_02]: And I feel like maybe there was some like vandalism to the ship during that time. 01:02:49.303 --> 01:02:57.469 [SPEAKER_02]: Sammy just like has the biggest heart in the world and just like couldn't quite understand why people didn't get what they wanted to do. 01:02:57.990 --> 01:02:59.451 [SPEAKER_02]: While it's hurtful, I think it's a little bit 01:03:03.614 --> 01:03:10.281 [SPEAKER_02]: When we opened the doors for the first day, and we didn't know if anybody was going to walk in, and they kind of didn't. 01:03:10.622 --> 01:03:15.247 [SPEAKER_02]: And the thought that our venture had failed before it had even really started. 01:03:15.727 --> 01:03:21.293 [SPEAKER_02]: So in the moment that hurt, in the moment that was stressful, that was worrisome, that was a rejection. 01:03:21.954 --> 01:03:23.756 [SPEAKER_02]: And now, looking back on that, it's... 01:03:24.677 --> 01:03:37.308 [SPEAKER_02]: just a little bit bittersweet because it's look how far we've come, look at the mind we've changed, look at the people who didn't want to see her who now come every Friday night and hang out and you've made this place their home too. 01:03:37.328 --> 01:03:41.572 [SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, so a little bit less hurtful a little bit more bittersweet I think. 01:03:42.273 --> 01:03:43.233 [SPEAKER_00]: So sweet. 01:03:43.474 --> 01:03:44.715 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh my God. 01:03:45.161 --> 01:03:47.945 [SPEAKER_03]: Hey, we talked beforehand about the tone being hopeful. 01:03:48.065 --> 01:03:51.109 [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, yeah, it's like this is so sweet. 01:03:51.230 --> 01:03:53.393 [SPEAKER_01]: Remember how we were like, ooh, chaotic. 01:03:53.453 --> 01:03:54.915 [SPEAKER_01]: Let's see if we can't believe you about it. 01:03:54.955 --> 01:03:56.937 [SPEAKER_01]: This has just been nothing but a whole so. 01:03:57.618 --> 01:04:01.620 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, this is the, this is Cowboy Beapop with Love. 01:04:02.200 --> 01:04:04.141 [SPEAKER_00]: Like, it's just like, it's so sweet. 01:04:04.841 --> 01:04:08.643 [SPEAKER_03]: We took the genre in the setting of Cowboy Beapop and then Disney Mouse. 01:04:09.003 --> 01:04:10.604 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I love it. 01:04:10.664 --> 01:04:14.346 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's what, that's what every game should be like, make it your own. 01:04:14.906 --> 01:04:19.869 [SPEAKER_00]: When renovations are needed at the queer bar, you all often take matters into your own hands. 01:04:20.289 --> 01:04:23.010 [SPEAKER_00]: What was the last big project you did to improve the queer bar? 01:04:23.490 --> 01:04:24.531 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's win-like. 01:04:25.073 --> 01:04:51.153 [SPEAKER_00]: we've started getting way more busy and then probably somebody came in and asked us like you guys should add like a balcony area so people can like walk up and like sit in like be a little away from the chaos of it all so we just heard that and we're like okay cool we'll just add a whole new floor so we built an additional story onto it it again this is 01:04:54.596 --> 01:05:16.390 [SPEAKER_00]: So like it doesn't look cohesive between the pieces but when you look at like the brand picture where you're like oh this like this should not work but taking a step back you're like oh even though this is like spackled here a little bit of like ship 2.5 here and like a little yellow spray paint there 01:05:17.375 --> 01:05:22.300 [SPEAKER_00]: it all makes it work together and then when you're inside, it looks like it's one functioning unit. 01:05:23.041 --> 01:05:32.651 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's like probably the crowning jewel is the fact that you can look over the balconies onto the the botanical gardens that we've built. 01:05:33.472 --> 01:05:34.693 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's really beautiful. 01:05:35.794 --> 01:05:38.397 [SPEAKER_01]: This is that would have been such an important 01:05:39.236 --> 01:05:45.300 [SPEAKER_01]: decision to make to because functionally, the bar was a ship, right? 01:05:45.800 --> 01:05:54.526 [SPEAKER_01]: And like when we're physically expanding on the bones of the place, we're making it no longer air, air safe. 01:05:54.546 --> 01:05:57.208 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's no longer going to be an air ship. 01:05:57.268 --> 01:05:59.390 [SPEAKER_01]: We can't take off with it anymore. 01:05:59.950 --> 01:06:01.971 [SPEAKER_01]: We're grounding it, like permanently. 01:06:03.052 --> 01:06:06.475 [SPEAKER_00]: We're like, we're going to be here for the foreseeable future. 01:06:06.755 --> 01:06:07.015 [SPEAKER_00]: So, 01:06:07.968 --> 01:06:09.368 [SPEAKER_00]: I hope y'all like this asteroid, babe. 01:06:10.589 --> 01:06:14.930 [SPEAKER_01]: After a terrible day, you went to the inner belt in the evening. 01:06:15.410 --> 01:06:16.511 [SPEAKER_01]: What cheered you up there? 01:06:16.531 --> 01:06:28.875 [SPEAKER_01]: I think one of the sweet things about our space is that we have a great diversity in the different kinds of events we have. 01:06:29.692 --> 01:06:37.840 [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's a feature that a lot of bars just in general, but especially community spaces do as well. 01:06:37.900 --> 01:06:40.682 [SPEAKER_01]: They have to get kind of creative to make ends meet. 01:06:40.763 --> 01:06:46.568 [SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, I'm trying to expand on the communities and trying to get more people into the space. 01:06:47.389 --> 01:06:49.791 [SPEAKER_01]: So maybe we had like, 01:06:51.400 --> 01:06:52.881 [SPEAKER_01]: and arts and crafts night. 01:06:53.542 --> 01:07:17.980 [SPEAKER_01]: Like maybe even something so simple as like making like friendship bracelets, just like so many like little beads and like even like little crystals and like getting creative with stuff just recycled like maybe like it's, it was an event where it's like okay, bring a cup full of random junk 01:07:18.930 --> 01:07:20.753 [SPEAKER_01]: that you're never going to use, right? 01:07:20.813 --> 01:07:23.558 [SPEAKER_01]: We have a high power drill at the bar. 01:07:23.618 --> 01:07:27.605 [SPEAKER_01]: We can make whole-put holes into things and turn them into jewelry, right? 01:07:28.206 --> 01:07:29.889 [SPEAKER_00]: It was called someone else's treasure. 01:07:30.915 --> 01:07:31.976 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I love that. 01:07:31.996 --> 01:07:34.517 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like you basically have to come with this cup of stuff. 01:07:34.537 --> 01:07:35.617 [SPEAKER_01]: We drill holes in all of it. 01:07:35.837 --> 01:07:38.618 [SPEAKER_01]: And then they dump it all into this big bowl. 01:07:38.638 --> 01:07:44.701 [SPEAKER_01]: And then everyone, like, you know, you just pick stuff out and you make whatever you want. 01:07:45.781 --> 01:07:46.722 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that's so sweet. 01:07:46.782 --> 01:07:47.342 [SPEAKER_00]: I love that. 01:07:47.362 --> 01:07:47.882 [SPEAKER_00]: So fun. 01:07:47.902 --> 01:07:48.943 [SPEAKER_02]: I think Sammy. 01:07:50.125 --> 01:08:05.450 [SPEAKER_02]: took this so seriously that since that night has started like a side hustle of industrial jewelry and like pounds metal into earrings and necklaces and is actually pretty good at it. 01:08:10.040 --> 01:08:13.521 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, I definitely have a Sammy original necklace that I will not think of. 01:08:13.641 --> 01:08:22.423 [SPEAKER_02]: Everybody at the queer bar probably has a Sammy original because while they do sell it, they're not a very good business person and they do keep just giving it to people. 01:08:22.863 --> 01:08:26.625 [SPEAKER_01]: If how you know you're a regular, that's like a soft towel. 01:08:26.745 --> 01:08:29.325 [SPEAKER_01]: Do you have a Sammy original? 01:08:30.926 --> 01:08:35.287 [SPEAKER_02]: What traces did the last big event leave in the interstellar rooms? 01:08:36.335 --> 01:09:00.073 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like it was a color party and so every single surface is color covered in different colored chalks and glitter and like body paint and it's just everywhere it has like tie dides, a spackle to everything and I think Sammy is just like standing in the middle 01:09:05.998 --> 01:09:07.239 [SPEAKER_02]: phase cool, phase fine. 01:09:07.659 --> 01:09:20.526 [SPEAKER_02]: So I think Sammy is just standing one of these lounge rooms and phase like kind of just like you know if this was a camera shot like kind of right over the shoulder but like in the background like kind of muffled what's the word for visual? 01:09:20.846 --> 01:09:23.868 [SPEAKER_02]: Out of focus, out of focus and seeing what just goes. 01:09:24.328 --> 01:09:24.748 [SPEAKER_02]: You know what? 01:09:25.429 --> 01:09:36.475 [SPEAKER_03]: I think that it would be easier if we just made this the tie-dye room and turns around and you just do baby like, no, no, and like, spending more round and like, shoving a broom into their hands and setting them on course. 01:09:37.375 --> 01:09:53.124 [SPEAKER_02]: But I do think that there might be like a booth or two that Sammy has made like, when you splatter painted things has like done that to those booths and reminiscence of the color party that was so much fun. 01:09:53.772 --> 01:09:57.938 [SPEAKER_01]: There's definitely spots like up and like the top parts we can't reach. 01:09:58.258 --> 01:10:05.828 [SPEAKER_01]: They're just so colorful and they're just always going to be that, because the latter just doesn't quite make it all the way up there. 01:10:05.848 --> 01:10:10.014 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to ask a question onto my own question. 01:10:10.434 --> 01:10:11.616 [SPEAKER_02]: What do we think was like, 01:10:13.120 --> 01:10:17.343 [SPEAKER_02]: Do you think there was a party we threw that after the party where like we should not have done that? 01:10:17.604 --> 01:10:22.828 [SPEAKER_03]: Because I feel like color party is really close up there on like things that a bar should not do. 01:10:22.848 --> 01:10:32.055 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, but you think there was one that just like... Definitely a glitter party because like leading up to it in the moment glitter. 01:10:32.636 --> 01:10:33.096 [SPEAKER_01]: Awesome. 01:10:33.857 --> 01:10:35.078 [SPEAKER_01]: Super fun, right? 01:10:35.118 --> 01:10:36.459 [SPEAKER_01]: Just gorgeous, right? 01:10:36.819 --> 01:10:39.601 [SPEAKER_01]: But when you don't want glitter and there is glitter, 01:10:40.723 --> 01:10:44.058 [SPEAKER_01]: It is just completely the worst thing ever. 01:10:45.158 --> 01:10:49.359 [SPEAKER_00]: adding to that, because I think it was a string of bad party decisions. 01:10:50.759 --> 01:10:57.760 [SPEAKER_00]: Or it's like, all right, cool, we kicked off and we loved the paint party, that made, that was amazing. 01:10:58.220 --> 01:11:00.221 [SPEAKER_00]: Then we did, okay, so what about glitter mix? 01:11:00.241 --> 01:11:02.881 [SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, we still have glitter, can't do that. 01:11:03.001 --> 01:11:09.362 [SPEAKER_00]: I think the next party was a bubble party in hopes of getting rid of the glitter, but people just were falling off. 01:11:09.542 --> 01:11:11.183 [SPEAKER_03]: And now I think it's just because it's sticky. 01:11:11.603 --> 01:11:12.403 [SPEAKER_03]: Oh God. 01:11:14.784 --> 01:11:22.471 [SPEAKER_00]: And I say a bubble party because there's always a bubble party at like the queer bars or anything's clubs and I'm like How do y'all do this? 01:11:22.511 --> 01:11:33.002 [SPEAKER_00]: This does not logically make sense, but I think that that's what we ended up getting it was like, okay So that one worked these are the two never again, which group? 01:11:33.573 --> 01:11:36.058 [SPEAKER_00]: always brings a good mood to the queer bar. 01:11:36.358 --> 01:11:37.620 [SPEAKER_02]: That's so interesting that we talked. 01:11:37.681 --> 01:11:43.150 [SPEAKER_02]: We originally talked about this being the place that people come after events, and we have yet to really touch on that. 01:11:43.170 --> 01:11:43.270 [SPEAKER_02]: So... 01:11:44.658 --> 01:11:53.588 [SPEAKER_00]: But I think the ones who really make it like that they're having the best time, I think it's the bikers. 01:11:53.828 --> 01:11:54.929 [SPEAKER_00]: I think it's the bikers. 01:11:54.969 --> 01:12:06.101 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that they bring like their space bikes, they just like, whenever they're in town, we're like, oh, this is gonna be the best time because they always bring the best stories. 01:12:06.682 --> 01:12:13.423 [SPEAKER_00]: And like whenever they come in, we always get to hear like the most preposterous like that's not possible that that happened. 01:12:13.623 --> 01:12:15.384 [SPEAKER_00]: But they have the receipts for it. 01:12:16.024 --> 01:12:18.104 [SPEAKER_00]: I really, I think that they make it. 01:12:18.564 --> 01:12:32.406 [SPEAKER_00]: And they also probably come in and make it feel very warm and very like just like they enjoy coming around because it all it makes it feel like a little bit more home of the chaos that we're like all used to. 01:12:32.707 --> 01:12:35.287 [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah 100% the bikers make it home. 01:12:35.677 --> 01:12:51.881 [SPEAKER_02]: We also talked about how this was kind of like a scrapping to get by thing and I'm wondering if that means like news isn't necessary the easiest to come by and so they also bring like current events with them and like we kind of know what's going on by them passing through. 01:12:52.641 --> 01:12:53.702 [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely, I love that. 01:12:54.802 --> 01:12:58.543 [SPEAKER_01]: You held an event outside of the inner belt space. 01:12:59.443 --> 01:13:02.084 [SPEAKER_01]: What kind of event was it and where did it take place? 01:13:03.578 --> 01:13:07.662 [SPEAKER_01]: I think it'd be really cool if so we clicked all these plans. 01:13:07.702 --> 01:13:08.923 [SPEAKER_01]: We'd grow all these plans. 01:13:09.463 --> 01:13:20.052 [SPEAKER_01]: It would be cool if there was an event where we took the plants somewhere else, either temporarily or even like took cuttings of our own plants to help spread them. 01:13:20.773 --> 01:13:25.317 [SPEAKER_01]: I imagine that it was definitely some kind of charity work. 01:13:26.157 --> 01:13:31.139 [SPEAKER_02]: It's like an adopted dog event at the farmers market, but it's an adopted plant, then. 01:13:31.159 --> 01:13:32.000 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. 01:13:33.140 --> 01:13:34.121 [SPEAKER_01]: I love that. 01:13:34.141 --> 01:13:44.446 [SPEAKER_01]: I imagine that we went to like, maybe there was a fair of some kind at like the closest largest space station. 01:13:45.466 --> 01:13:46.046 [SPEAKER_01]: And so we 01:13:47.953 --> 01:13:56.420 [SPEAKER_01]: We had a barrel, like a little scooter because our ship can't fly any more, and we just loaded it up with a ton of plants. 01:13:59.002 --> 01:13:59.782 [SPEAKER_01]: I love that. 01:14:00.583 --> 01:14:13.132 [SPEAKER_01]: And then like we probably like had these like made these like little hand-made tags that we gently loop around like one of the stems of each plant, and it's like an invitation to 01:14:16.495 --> 01:14:18.756 [SPEAKER_01]: Come grab a drink at our bar. 01:14:20.036 --> 01:14:21.036 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, that's really nice. 01:14:21.096 --> 01:14:21.696 [SPEAKER_02]: I love that. 01:14:22.417 --> 01:14:25.857 [SPEAKER_02]: Sammy has stuck a Sammy original on each one of them. 01:14:26.478 --> 01:14:33.660 [SPEAKER_00]: Meanwhile Chicago is like making sure that they're like our little crest or insignia is stamped on the bottom of every plant. 01:14:34.220 --> 01:14:38.141 [SPEAKER_00]: It like he's he's over here crying because he's like, you're going to have a great home. 01:14:38.201 --> 01:14:42.542 [SPEAKER_00]: This is going to treat this one kind because like this will like it's a little bit extra water at night. 01:14:43.542 --> 01:14:45.283 [SPEAKER_01]: And Elle's just like counting all of them. 01:14:45.303 --> 01:14:46.623 [SPEAKER_01]: Just like counting all of them. 01:14:46.663 --> 01:14:47.624 [UNKNOWN]: Just like counting all of them. 01:14:47.684 --> 01:14:49.444 [SPEAKER_00]: Just like counting all of them. 01:14:49.464 --> 01:14:49.624 [SPEAKER_00]: Cool. 01:14:50.044 --> 01:14:50.425 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, cool. 01:14:50.445 --> 01:14:50.625 [SPEAKER_00]: Cool. 01:14:51.365 --> 01:14:52.145 [SPEAKER_00]: We got too many plants. 01:14:52.205 --> 01:14:53.226 [SPEAKER_00]: Not enough space in this place. 01:14:53.266 --> 01:14:53.826 [SPEAKER_00]: Get them out. 01:14:55.326 --> 01:14:56.027 [SPEAKER_01]: It was like this. 01:14:56.047 --> 01:14:58.287 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like of course, like a really wholesome release. 01:14:58.388 --> 01:15:02.289 [SPEAKER_01]: We and just like meant to be like a community connecting thing. 01:15:02.309 --> 01:15:03.770 [SPEAKER_01]: The like secretly deep down. 01:15:03.810 --> 01:15:07.331 [SPEAKER_01]: There's a shade of that where Elle's just like, like God. 01:15:07.391 --> 01:15:08.911 [SPEAKER_01]: We're getting rid of some of these. 01:15:10.772 --> 01:15:11.932 [SPEAKER_01]: It's just too much. 01:15:12.933 --> 01:15:15.673 [SPEAKER_01]: It's just so much plain moderation. 01:15:19.254 --> 01:15:23.855 [SPEAKER_00]: It's because people found out that, like, if we bring a plant, we get free booze. 01:15:24.095 --> 01:15:27.916 [SPEAKER_00]: So they just really started bringing so many plants. 01:15:29.056 --> 01:15:33.097 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, it's a great problem to have, but still a problem. 01:15:34.017 --> 01:15:39.118 [SPEAKER_00]: It's a problem specifically, but we can give it back, because I think we're like, where we are. 01:15:40.265 --> 01:15:50.028 [SPEAKER_00]: it might be like, not the wreckage of like corporate greed or anything like that, but we can at least help bring some life back into this place. 01:15:50.048 --> 01:15:51.228 [SPEAKER_00]: So I really do like that. 01:15:51.388 --> 01:15:56.470 [SPEAKER_01]: What if that was one of the like five year anniversary like initiatives that we had? 01:15:56.490 --> 01:15:56.950 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah. 01:15:57.010 --> 01:16:03.292 [SPEAKER_01]: Just to like, we had a little table at the fair and we're just like celebrate five years with us. 01:16:05.073 --> 01:16:06.233 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, this is so good. 01:16:06.253 --> 01:16:07.914 [SPEAKER_00]: I love this bug. 01:16:08.134 --> 01:16:09.294 [SPEAKER_00]: I love this bar so much. 01:16:15.240 --> 01:16:27.705 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, we have come to the final question of the game which we each have to answer, what is your most important wish for the future of the queer bar? 01:16:29.025 --> 01:16:42.031 [SPEAKER_01]: I wish that the inner belt manages to sustain and fill all the hearts of the people that come 01:16:43.645 --> 01:16:55.378 [SPEAKER_01]: I hope that it can live on and be itself without sacrificing what it is and what it spent to be. 01:17:06.142 --> 01:17:15.550 [SPEAKER_02]: for other places, because even though we may not actively be fighting against the corporation, 01:17:17.269 --> 01:17:37.546 [SPEAKER_02]: Our mere existence is a spark of rebellion, and I think that it would be really cool if those little sparks popped up on other planets and other space stations and other galaxies and kept the work going. 01:17:38.988 --> 01:17:41.590 [SPEAKER_01]: You mean sprout up? 01:17:46.383 --> 01:17:48.624 [SPEAKER_00]: That's one of the initiatives that is the Sprout program. 01:17:48.644 --> 01:17:51.425 [SPEAKER_03]: Sprout up. 01:17:52.666 --> 01:17:58.228 [SPEAKER_00]: My wish for the inner belt is that it continues to grow into 01:18:01.061 --> 01:18:19.566 [SPEAKER_00]: It is a beautiful place and that it can continue to be a refuge for people because I think that's the biggest takeaway that I've gotten here from this is that no matter who, no matter what you are, no matter what you've done in your past, unless you've tried to steal the plus, unless you've tried to steal the plus. 01:18:19.586 --> 01:18:21.327 [SPEAKER_03]: Only one person has been playing food. 01:18:24.008 --> 01:18:25.648 [SPEAKER_01]: Look at all the good we've done. 01:18:25.808 --> 01:18:28.669 [SPEAKER_01]: Taking out one person is fine, right? 01:18:29.327 --> 01:18:47.666 [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, unless you try to steal the place that you're welcome here and that no matter what, this is a safe place for you to be and that you don't feel like you have to put on who you are, that this is always and forever will be a place for someone to feel like they are at home and that they can put upwards. 01:18:55.567 --> 01:18:59.931 [SPEAKER_02]: Those are lovely, lovely words to bring this episode to a close-on. 01:18:59.951 --> 01:19:06.596 [SPEAKER_02]: I want to thank everybody for listening to this one-shot for Pride Month, here on queer PG. 01:19:07.096 --> 01:19:10.759 [SPEAKER_02]: If you haven't listened to the other one-shot, we did a couple of weeks ago. 01:19:11.460 --> 01:19:19.406 [SPEAKER_02]: It's playing the game this party sucks, which I will say is a very, very different vibe than this game. 01:19:20.267 --> 01:19:22.489 [SPEAKER_02]: So be aware of that, but it was super fun. 01:19:22.529 --> 01:19:23.649 [SPEAKER_02]: You can go check that one out. 01:19:24.550 -->

their life. 01:20:17.144 --> 01:20:17.484 [SPEAKER_00]: It's great. 01:20:18.465 --> 01:20:19.285 [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, thank you. 01:20:21.110 --> 01:20:23.811 [SPEAKER_01]: Hi everybody, thank you
