17
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:33,100
Ready to talk about some Bizarre
AF shit and get a little funky

18
00:01:33,100 --> 00:01:37,100
yesterday.
So today I'm actually I'm here

19
00:01:37,100 --> 00:01:40,800
to talk about a club that has a
high cover charge Kevin.

20
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,900
Uh-huh.
How do you feel about paying you

21
00:01:42,900 --> 00:01:45,100
know just a little bit to get
into I don't mind paying a

22
00:01:45,108 --> 00:01:48,000
little bit.
How much would you pay like to

23
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000
get into a hot club?
Yeah, club.

24
00:01:50,300 --> 00:01:59,200
Hmm, maybe 50 bucks?
Hmm. 50.

25
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,500
Yeah, that's super know.
Like, if it was like, like I

26
00:02:04,500 --> 00:02:06,400
could probably go as high as 100
or to dip.

27
00:02:06,500 --> 00:02:11,400
If it was like, you know,
something really fancy Dancy

28
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,200
like one.
If it was once in a lifetime

29
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,000
thing, you know, maybe more.
Okay, A little more, a little

30
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,900
bit more, okay.
But not probably not much more

31
00:02:17,900 --> 00:02:23,100
than that, okay?
So I'm gonna try to entice you,

32
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,400
okay?
So if you could set the mood for

33
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,400
me, just a little bit.
Oh, my play.

34
00:02:29,300 --> 00:02:31,600
Should we go into a bar?
Yeah, let's go into a bar.

35
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,600
We're actually this bar is
filled with some of the most

36
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:42,500
talented singers musicians
artists, actors models.

37
00:02:42,700 --> 00:02:46,900
You know, we're talking to Amy
Winehouse, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt

38
00:02:46,900 --> 00:02:53,900
Cobain Jean-Michel Basquiat.
Yes, Sahara Davenport.

39
00:02:53,900 --> 00:02:58,000
Yeah, Jim Morrison, Janis
Joplin, you know, the real creme

40
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,400
de la ERM.
I'm making my rounds through the

41
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,800
club and make your rounds.
You can be around them.

42
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,900
Bumping shoulders in their
midst.

43
00:03:07,300 --> 00:03:10,100
All you have to pay.
Yes, is your life?

44
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:18,300
But that's a little excessive.
Yeah, it's a little excessive, I

45
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:20,100
don't know.
That, would it be worth it?

46
00:03:20,900 --> 00:03:26,100
I mean, you know, we are in the
cooler downtown area of our

47
00:03:26,100 --> 00:03:29,800
bizarre AF world.
And it's, that's where it's

48
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,400
located.
I thought that, you know, we

49
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,500
could maybe get down to the
bottom of it decide whether or

50
00:03:33,508 --> 00:03:34,900
not we wanted to be a part of
it.

51
00:03:35,100 --> 00:03:39,100
Well, actually, I hate to break
it to you, Kevin, but I don't

52
00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:43,100
think that we're able to get in
Actually, was not dead.

53
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:48,300
The ability to get her and I
said, well, well, that up among

54
00:03:48,300 --> 00:03:52,300
some other some other reasons,
but let me, I forgot to do

55
00:03:52,300 --> 00:03:53,900
though.
What about this really quick?

56
00:03:53,900 --> 00:03:58,400
Yeah, do it.
We're doing a little bit.

57
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,100
Yeah, we're just meant a little
adjusting.

58
00:04:00,100 --> 00:04:05,200
When you said all, it was gonna
cost was your life.

59
00:04:06,300 --> 00:04:10,400
Should have went good.
Let's try it again.

60
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:12,800
Okay.
So all it's going to cost you.

61
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:13,800
Yes.
Uh-huh.

62
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:21,399
Your life.
So you know this 27.

63
00:04:21,700 --> 00:04:25,300
They're all right, I gotta get
you back in there.

64
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,900
Okay.
So um, have you heard of this

65
00:04:28,900 --> 00:04:32,200
club that we're in know?
He is very now.

66
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,500
This is bizarre, it's pretty
bizarre.

67
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,400
Yeah, all of those all those
Those things those people have.

68
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,300
And how am I going to be in a
party with all of those people

69
00:04:40,300 --> 00:04:42,400
at the same time?
Well, I mean you could you could

70
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:47,100
have been but I think we're well
past our prime age to get in

71
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:48,100
here.
Yeah.

72
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,600
Unfortunately this is the
problem.

73
00:04:51,100 --> 00:04:52,600
That's the problem.
That's really the problem.

74
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,200
Maybe the part that's bizarre.
It's part of the part that's

75
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:00,100
bizarre for sure.
And actually you know, this we

76
00:05:00,100 --> 00:05:02,500
can't become a part of it, but
the 27 club was actually

77
00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:05,900
initially coined in the 1970s
and was after something.

78
00:05:06,100 --> 00:05:09,000
Miss musicians, had passed away
at the age of 27.

79
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,900
We're talking two years of 1969
to 1971.

80
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:15,600
You may know some of the names,
okay?

81
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,600
So these three happened like
really, really short period of

82
00:05:19,608 --> 00:05:23,700
time from each other, we have
Jimi Hendrix in 1970, okay?

83
00:05:23,700 --> 00:05:30,100
Janice Joplin 1970, Jim Morrison
1970, all of them seventy, okay,

84
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,000
in 70, they all died at the age
of 27.

85
00:05:34,900 --> 00:05:39,600
So everyone so they were all 327
in 1970.

86
00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:42,400
Yes, actually.
I think one of them was 1969,

87
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,200
but yes, within that short
period of time.

88
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,900
I was really 1969 to 1971.
There's a couple of other people

89
00:05:47,900 --> 00:05:49,300
that aren't as well known.
Okay.

90
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,500
But all of them died within
those years.

91
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,400
So a real 27 years old, I'm 27
years old, there those are some

92
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,700
big names and they're really
ones that caused people to ask

93
00:05:58,700 --> 00:06:00,200
that question.
Like what the fuck?

94
00:06:00,300 --> 00:06:03,800
Yeah, why 27, right?
Why is it that so many talented

95
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,900
people?
You know who really have a

96
00:06:05,908 --> 00:06:09,000
finger on the pulse of our
culture of the cultural

97
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:14,500
phenomenon at that time, how
could they pass at such a young

98
00:06:14,500 --> 00:06:18,700
age under somewhat mysterious
circumstances?

99
00:06:19,100 --> 00:06:24,000
You know, when that happens and
something like this is

100
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,100
occurring.
You know, it's kind of like

101
00:06:25,100 --> 00:06:27,700
where where there is smoke?
What is there?

102
00:06:27,900 --> 00:06:29,300
Hmm, hyah.
Yeah.

103
00:06:29,300 --> 00:06:32,700
By.
Ah, so you know some years went

104
00:06:32,700 --> 00:06:37,400
by the 27 club was kind of You
know, forgotten and that's until

105
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:43,100
April 5th 1994 24 years.
After the murmurings of this

106
00:06:43,100 --> 00:06:46,000
fateful Club, it's Seattle
Washington.

107
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:52,200
And the club has brought in its
newest member Kurt, Cobain oh he

108
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,300
was also 27.
Yeah well I just 27 years old

109
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:59,900
uh-huh.
Okay so if you live under a rock

110
00:06:59,900 --> 00:07:03,100
you know or hate music or
Domino, chiefly lifts, listen to

111
00:07:03,100 --> 00:07:08,800
fucking pokers.
You probably don't know who Kurt

112
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,200
Cobain is so Kevin.
I know that you're none of those

113
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,700
things.
Who can you tell us who Kurt

114
00:07:12,700 --> 00:07:16,800
Cobain?
Yes, he was part of Nirvana and

115
00:07:16,900 --> 00:07:19,900
I have to tell you I actually
had kind of crushed on him a

116
00:07:19,908 --> 00:07:22,400
little bit because he'll
actually looks like my first

117
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,800
boyfriend that I really was
serious about twinsies.

118
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:31,500
Oh my gosh you got a hot first
boyfriend so who's the lead

119
00:07:31,500 --> 00:07:33,100
singer of Nirvana?
Yeah.

120
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:39,700
And No, Nirvana was ultimately,
you know, one of the best bands,

121
00:07:39,700 --> 00:07:44,700
biggest bands of the 1990s and,
you know, we're really going to.

122
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:47,100
Can you hear that?
Oh my God, your Leathers

123
00:07:47,100 --> 00:07:50,000
cracking, totally cracking, that
means, it's good.

124
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,900
Thanks thing.
Anyways, you know, there are

125
00:07:52,900 --> 00:07:57,200
also the best-selling, so they
were selling out Arenas.

126
00:07:57,500 --> 00:08:01,700
And, and I feel like they got,
ya popular, very, very fast.

127
00:08:01,700 --> 00:08:03,600
I feels like neck.
Think I'm sure they were doing

128
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,100
all of those little Shitty gigs
and those kind of grungy bands

129
00:08:07,100 --> 00:08:09,400
were doing.
But seems like, you know, when

130
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,200
once you heard them like, they
took the hell off.

131
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,200
Yeah, they really took off
Smells Like Teen Spirit like

132
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,300
that whole album?
Yeah, nevermind.

133
00:08:16,300 --> 00:08:20,000
I think it was called.
Yeah, big fucking huge.

134
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,200
Huge.
So it, you know, the crunch Rock

135
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,500
world and namely Nirvana.
They were all about the music,

136
00:08:26,500 --> 00:08:29,100
right?
Like they're kind of punk, like

137
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,900
screw the system, let's make
music, that's honest, and good

138
00:08:32,900 --> 00:08:35,600
and means something and Is
people off.

139
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,299
Yeah, you know,
anti-establishment people which

140
00:08:38,299 --> 00:08:39,600
I fucking love.
Right.

141
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,300
But they're like you're a coder.
Yes.

142
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,200
Yes, Aaron Schwartz.
Yeah.

143
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,800
The the coder who was
anti-establishment like, fuck

144
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,800
the system.
We're going to try to screw

145
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,700
people over.
That's, you know, those grunge

146
00:08:53,700 --> 00:08:55,500
bands.
A lot of them were kind of like

147
00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:56,900
that.
They, you know, are

148
00:08:56,908 --> 00:08:59,800
anti-establishment, punk, rock.
Well, you know grunge Rock

149
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,500
whatever, but but still that
idea is like be true to the

150
00:09:03,508 --> 00:09:06,500
music beat.
True to who you are and you

151
00:09:06,500 --> 00:09:11,000
know, they're not about making
bigwigs massive amounts of

152
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,000
money.
Right.

153
00:09:12,100 --> 00:09:16,100
You know, playing these stadium
shows that you know, Nirvana's

154
00:09:16,100 --> 00:09:18,100
playing and selling for the
masses.

155
00:09:18,300 --> 00:09:20,300
What is that called?
It's fucking called selling out,

156
00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:21,400
dude.
Yeah, yeah.

157
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,600
So it's like, you know, do you
really want to do that?

158
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:28,500
No, that's the antithesis of,
you know, of grunge, exact Kurt

159
00:09:28,500 --> 00:09:31,200
Cobain, you know, stood for his
music.

160
00:09:31,700 --> 00:09:33,300
So, you know, I was saying is
like the biggest band in the

161
00:09:33,308 --> 00:09:36,400
world really was the Band in the
world and you find, you know,

162
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:42,000
Kurt dead at 27 years old.
His mother, Wendy friedenberg

163
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,500
Cobain O'Connor was actually
quoted in the Aberdeen,

164
00:09:44,500 --> 00:09:48,400
Washington Newspaper saying.
Now, he's gone and joined that

165
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,300
stupid Club.
I told him not to join that

166
00:09:51,300 --> 00:09:58,300
stupid Club So I knew about it.
I mean, I guess in the Rock and

167
00:09:58,300 --> 00:10:01,400
I guess in the musicians world,
you know, about it, he's our, do

168
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,100
you think, oh my God, could you
imagine?

169
00:10:03,300 --> 00:10:07,000
And if you're real famous and
you're like, oh God, IMA turn 27

170
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,200
next year.
Mmm, like fuck and Emma is this

171
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,200
is this me?
What is this?

172
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,600
Doom going to happen?
Gonna befall me, like, like the

173
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,600
fucking grim reapers gonna come
on in, right?

174
00:10:19,700 --> 00:10:21,800
And especially when you have
like such a talented person.

175
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,300
You're like, how the hell this
person's?

176
00:10:23,500 --> 00:10:25,300
Like, on top of the world.
How is it that?

177
00:10:25,500 --> 00:10:30,800
No, he succumbs to this club,
the world's really asking it to

178
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,300
make sense.
How do you make sense of it?

179
00:10:32,300 --> 00:10:33,600
How could a famous guy at the
top?

180
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:39,200
At the top of his, his game
professionally, you know, die by

181
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,200
suicide.
Because that's because everybody

182
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,900
has every human can have
problems, right?

183
00:10:43,900 --> 00:10:46,900
Every human can have problems,
but it's like he, you know, the

184
00:10:46,900 --> 00:10:50,700
question is like, you know, he
got everything he wanted, right.

185
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:53,900
So he had his fancy had
ridiculous album sales He was

186
00:10:53,900 --> 00:10:57,000
performing all over the world,
you know, being able to do what

187
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:03,200
he loves and he's, you know,
gifted how the hell does he, you

188
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,500
know, die by Suicide.
It doesn't make sense.

189
00:11:06,100 --> 00:11:08,500
Do you remember hearing about
Kurt Cobain's passing?

190
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,800
Yeah, I don't remember deed, I
guess.

191
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,500
I don't remember anything
specific about it.

192
00:11:13,500 --> 00:11:18,600
I remember it happening and
being completely shocked by its

193
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,500
sure but I don't remember any of
the details.

194
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,700
Yeah, about how it happened.
Or Any of that everyone was

195
00:11:24,700 --> 00:11:26,200
shocked.
Like they, like they literally

196
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,300
were at the top of their game,
you know.

197
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,100
Ultimately, I would be remiss to
say that.

198
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:35,600
Like there aren't that.
There are a lot of theories that

199
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,700
go along with Kurt Cobain's
death, but that's really not our

200
00:11:39,700 --> 00:11:42,900
topic at hand to discussing that
is not what we're talking about

201
00:11:42,900 --> 00:11:45,000
today, but I can tell you the
facts of his death.

202
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:50,100
So Kurt was actually at his home
in Seattle, Washington on, June

203
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:54,500
5th with a shotgun that was
purchased by his And because

204
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:59,800
Kurt was nervous that the guns
would be would be taken by

205
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,400
authorities.
So who's found dead April, a

206
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,900
three days after he had killed
himself by a man that had an

207
00:12:06,900 --> 00:12:09,100
appointment to set up like
security lights at his home.

208
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,000
So the fucking biggest rock star
in the world sitting alone dead

209
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,600
and his house for three fucking
days.

210
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,700
So he was asking someone for
firearms.

211
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:20,700
He had he had asked a friend to
purchase a gun for him.

212
00:12:20,900 --> 00:12:23,300
Hmm.
And he had had guns in the past.

213
00:12:23,500 --> 00:12:24,800
East.
But they had been on.

214
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,200
See, I know hindsight's 20/20
and it's easy, just to say

215
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,800
things after the fact, but I
like you viewed, it seems like

216
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,100
if you would have a famous
friend that famous musician

217
00:12:35,100 --> 00:12:38,900
asking for firearms, wouldn't
you be like, what's what?

218
00:12:38,900 --> 00:12:41,700
Yeah, what the fuck is going on?
Although it's easy to say,

219
00:12:41,700 --> 00:12:44,200
because when you have
celebrities like that asking for

220
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,400
thinking, you know, we probably
don't question them, right,

221
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,000
right?
Like, they're, you know, you're

222
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,900
talking about like who's like,
who's someone similar today?

223
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,400
Like, I don't know, Harry
Styles, or something like that.

224
00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:57,200
Harry Styles is your, you know,
friend and you're having him you

225
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,900
know, ask you to buy something.
You're like people don't say no.

226
00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:01,500
Yeah.
You're like cool.

227
00:13:01,500 --> 00:13:03,400
Like you're the fucking cool.
Well, I don't know Harry.

228
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,500
So I don't know if that's a
relevant like but like you have

229
00:13:06,500 --> 00:13:09,200
him like sitting there, you
know, asking you to buy

230
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,400
something or like fuck?
Yeah, of course.

231
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:11,400
I'll do that.
Yeah.

232
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:16,200
Like, you're super cool, you
know, ultimately, you know, you

233
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,200
have something that, you know,
seemingly, you know, meaningless

234
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,300
like how is that?
Someone can die so suddenly

235
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,800
Yeah.
And you know just really be

236
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,100
plucked away from this world
it's not meaningful didn't see

237
00:13:28,100 --> 00:13:31,300
meaningful.
Maybe he was selected, you know,

238
00:13:31,300 --> 00:13:34,400
people are talking about this 27
Club, perhaps he was selected to

239
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,500
become a member of it and that
in fact is our topic today.

240
00:13:37,500 --> 00:13:41,400
And yeah, so I that is
interesting soon.

241
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,600
Here's so I don't want to get.
Yeah.

242
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:48,400
Let me just say that you can
make patterns out of anything.

243
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,600
Hmm.
And kind of like the other thing

244
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,500
you know, when you say so But
he's always die in three.

245
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:58,200
Yeah, the well, but there's a
lot of people in the world and

246
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,200
three people that, you know,
could probably die, right?

247
00:14:02,300 --> 00:14:05,200
That's how.
I mean, I guess it's really

248
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,500
weird that they're all 27.
That's a weird and random.

249
00:14:08,500 --> 00:14:11,300
It seems like it's statistically
significant right house seem

250
00:14:11,300 --> 00:14:14,800
like it, but are we trying to
just find a pattern in something

251
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,500
that this is really a pattern?
I mean, that's a really good

252
00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:20,000
question.
I think when, when something

253
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,700
tragic like a death that happens
to someone who's Young, And has

254
00:14:23,700 --> 00:14:25,900
like the rest of their lives,
are on top of the world, they

255
00:14:25,900 --> 00:14:29,700
have the rest their lives to,
you know, to, you know, really

256
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,500
continue to make waves in the
music world, or the artistic

257
00:14:32,500 --> 00:14:36,500
world, or in the World At Large.
It seems like it's such a tragic

258
00:14:36,500 --> 00:14:40,200
loss that people are truly
trying to make sense of it.

259
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,400
And I think, by saying that
their members of the 27 Club are

260
00:14:43,408 --> 00:14:46,500
saying that there is some kind
of significance behind their

261
00:14:46,500 --> 00:14:49,200
death.
I think it creates meaning.

262
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,100
Yeah.
Ultimately right, yes.

263
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,000
Right.
And and okay, yeah, which is

264
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,700
okay.
And like in the question is, is

265
00:14:54,700 --> 00:14:57,800
like, is there actually
statistical significance?

266
00:14:58,300 --> 00:15:02,900
We'll get into that.
Okay, so so ultimately, the 27

267
00:15:02,900 --> 00:15:09,700
club didn't really have any very
well-known members that made

268
00:15:09,700 --> 00:15:17,600
waves until July 23rd 2011 and
the newest member was received

269
00:15:17,700 --> 00:15:21,700
Amy, Amy Winehouse.
Yeah, she had actually voiced

270
00:15:21,700 --> 00:15:25,200
her concerns about becoming a
member of the 27 years, three

271
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,400
years earlier.
Yeah, that's what I was saying

272
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,800
before.
Like, if your health is famous

273
00:15:31,300 --> 00:15:34,900
musician and you're not yet 27
and you know about it, I would

274
00:15:34,900 --> 00:15:37,500
be petrified.
Yeah, she and she was like, I

275
00:15:37,500 --> 00:15:40,000
really don't want to die.
Like those were some of our last

276
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,300
words like to the last, like
recorded words to her doctor was

277
00:15:43,300 --> 00:15:47,300
like I don't want to die and
then she was found less than 24

278
00:15:47,300 --> 00:15:53,300
hours later dead, you know.
It's it was she was actually she

279
00:15:53,500 --> 00:15:57,400
Found in her bed, unresponsive
by her security guard, or her

280
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,400
bodyguard that afternoon.
Like, 3:00 in the afternoon, you

281
00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,800
know, Amy Winehouse, Soulful
eclectic.

282
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,600
I don't know what would you what
would you?

283
00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:08,600
How would you describe Amy
eclectic?

284
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,500
Yeah.
Classic Soulful.

285
00:16:10,500 --> 00:16:13,100
She kind of brought Jazz back.
Yeah yeah.

286
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:17,100
She's actually a retro pop kind
of sounds like she had her old

287
00:16:17,100 --> 00:16:19,700
soul.
Yes, totally shoot that.

288
00:16:19,700 --> 00:16:22,900
That one really hurt me.
I fucking loved.

289
00:16:22,900 --> 00:16:24,800
Amy.
My house and I still like,

290
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,400
actually she was like in my top
five artists that I've listened

291
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,100
to on Spotify your playback.
I just totally.

292
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,700
Yeah.
So for the year, which was all

293
00:16:34,700 --> 00:16:38,600
over the charts, like, as
musically, but also in the

294
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,000
tabloids right?
For her erratic Behavior.

295
00:16:42,700 --> 00:16:45,500
So when people started to look
at this 27 Club, they were

296
00:16:45,500 --> 00:16:49,000
really like you know, bringing
up the idea of this statistical

297
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,200
significance, right?
All of these people are, you

298
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:56,900
know, And they seem to be dying
there at the height of their

299
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:59,700
career.
What the fuck is going on?

300
00:16:59,700 --> 00:17:01,700
We can look back, right?
Because, because just like you

301
00:17:01,708 --> 00:17:05,400
were saying, people are looking
back into time and saying, oh my

302
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:07,200
gosh!
Look at all of these other

303
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:13,700
people who have died at 27 years
old and have been huge in the

304
00:17:13,700 --> 00:17:18,500
Music Arts scene.
What the fuck is going on,

305
00:17:18,500 --> 00:17:20,500
right?
So there's actually a study done

306
00:17:20,500 --> 00:17:25,099
in 2011, December of 2011, And
right after Amy had died, right?

307
00:17:25,099 --> 00:17:30,200
She died in was it July?
So they did a study.

308
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:35,300
In, in 2011, it was actually
published in the British medical

309
00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:39,900
journal by University academics
and they were trying to decide

310
00:17:39,900 --> 00:17:42,500
like what the fuck like is this
actually statistically

311
00:17:42,500 --> 00:17:45,700
significant.
So they studied and looked at

312
00:17:45,700 --> 00:17:49,100
every everyone who had died that
was of, you know, had had like a

313
00:17:49,100 --> 00:17:52,600
number one hits on the top or
not number one, but like a top

314
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:57,100
100 hits.
And the UK charts and they found

315
00:17:57,100 --> 00:18:01,300
that there is really not a
significant increase in death,

316
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:05,200
in the risk for death for
musicians at the age of 27.

317
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:10,200
There's actually equally small
increases small increases at 27

318
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:16,300
at ages 25 and ages 32.
So it's just as significant to

319
00:18:16,300 --> 00:18:20,000
die at 25 and 30 so you can say
the 25 caliber 30 to close right

320
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,700
right now or the 27, 35 32
covers are 25 32 clever, right?

321
00:18:24,700 --> 00:18:28,700
You just add it all together.
So, you know, it really noted

322
00:18:28,700 --> 00:18:33,100
that young adult musicians have
a higher death rate than the

323
00:18:33,100 --> 00:18:35,800
general young adult population
they do.

324
00:18:35,900 --> 00:18:38,300
They are more susceptible to die
earlier.

325
00:18:38,500 --> 00:18:43,700
So, you know, ultimately, what
was what they had discovered was

326
00:18:43,700 --> 00:18:47,400
that they may increase the risk
of death among musicians, but

327
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,600
this risk is not limited to age
27, you know?

328
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,200
So sure it's not.
It's that there was like there.

329
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:58,500
Note that they had.
So ultimately a 2014 article.

330
00:18:58,500 --> 00:19:01,200
The conversation actually,
suggested the statistical

331
00:19:01,700 --> 00:19:05,100
evidence shows popular.
Musicians are most likely to die

332
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:10,100
at age 56 my God.
So it's just point because it's

333
00:19:10,100 --> 00:19:13,600
because their livers are finally
giving out right?

334
00:19:13,700 --> 00:19:16,700
All the hard hard years of like
drinking and drug use they're

335
00:19:16,700 --> 00:19:19,700
like okay now it's time for like
a stroke and death, right?

336
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:23,200
Like you have really run and yet
you know people like Mick Jagger

337
00:19:23,300 --> 00:19:27,000
Jagger and fucking, you know,
Steven, Tyler are still rocking

338
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,500
the Earth.
How the hell?

339
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:31,600
Anyway, so 56.
So that's 22.2.

340
00:19:32,900 --> 00:19:38,500
Percent more.
Significant at 56% are 56 years

341
00:19:38,500 --> 00:19:44,700
old, compared to 1.3 percent
more like significant, like

342
00:19:44,700 --> 00:19:46,800
statistically significant to die
at 27.

343
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:53,100
So so really, you know, maybe it
should be the 56 Club Studio.

344
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:59,000
Sex, you know, anyways, you
know, death at 27, I think, the

345
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,000
reason why it keeps on coming up
is death at 27 is not.

346
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,600
It's never due to natural
causes, right, right.

347
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,000
Nobody's gonna be like, oh, I
died in my sleep.

348
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:09,900
Yeah, it's real.
Cause is right.

349
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,600
And so, the list of 27 club
members is long and it very

350
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,100
slightly.
So some deaths have occurred due

351
00:20:15,100 --> 00:20:19,000
to cancer, like, Jane goodie.
This was a person like a reality

352
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:25,300
Stone show star in the UK, but
some of them are auto accidents

353
00:20:25,300 --> 00:20:27,500
and others like, you know, freak
accidents.

354
00:20:27,500 --> 00:20:31,300
Really like Anton Yelchin from
the Star Wars franchise?

355
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:34,500
Yeah.
Live long and prosper anyway,

356
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,700
but the majority are really due
to addiction and depression.

357
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,100
That's why these people are
dying at 27, right?

358
00:20:41,100 --> 00:20:45,800
Like you were saying like we all
have demons yes Rivals, which

359
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,700
is, that was part of the
problem, remember that quote?

360
00:20:47,700 --> 00:20:53,300
And it seems like The rich and
the famous have.

361
00:20:54,500 --> 00:20:58,600
Way easier access to that, right
to draw.

362
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,600
I was gonna say, no, we're
having will get what you need

363
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,300
and so fueling.
Those demons money is a little

364
00:21:05,300 --> 00:21:08,000
easier to do.
Yeah, it's way easier, right?

365
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,800
It's easier because you have
such a also think about their

366
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,400
schedules, right?
So they're like performing at

367
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,200
night and stuff.
I don't really have like a

368
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:18,100
normal fucking daytime scheduled
daytime job.

369
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,300
It's kind of like a CD.
ER, you know, the music industry

370
00:21:21,300 --> 00:21:24,000
is a superior like place, right?
Is yeah.

371
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,000
So you said remember that quote?
Yeah, that Kurt Cobain's.

372
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,400
Mom had said, right?
Yes.

373
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,100
Yeah, so it was now he's gone
and joined that stupid Club.

374
00:21:32,100 --> 00:21:34,200
Yeah.
Told him not to join that club.

375
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,400
So people grasped onto this
hearing her say this, and that

376
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,200
article and they were like,
okay, Miss Wendy has a fucking

377
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,200
Smoking Gun, she knows the
truth.

378
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,400
Yeah, she did, she did know the
fucking truth because Kurt

379
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,400
Cobain had two uncles who died
of suicide as well.

380
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,700
Her brothers died of suicide.
So she wasn't talking about some

381
00:21:53,700 --> 00:21:58,200
kind of That like only the
famous and like, you know, sexy

382
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,800
rock stars become member know,
there was an issue.

383
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,600
Yeah, there's an ish that you
know, it's depression that runs

384
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,800
rampant in her fucking family.
That's what she was talking

385
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:10,000
about but people read into it as
to being a different cause,

386
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:10,700
right?
Yeah.

387
00:22:11,500 --> 00:22:13,600
So I think that, you know,
ultimately when we're talking

388
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,900
about these folks like we think
that the gift and I mean really

389
00:22:15,900 --> 00:22:19,700
talented few and a generation
type folks who really change the

390
00:22:19,700 --> 00:22:23,300
culture the way that we're
moving, like I we think that

391
00:22:23,300 --> 00:22:25,500
they're Larger than Life, Life.
Right, hmm.

392
00:22:25,500 --> 00:22:27,600
They have something that we
don't, you don't have, you don't

393
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,400
have.
I don't have like, we don't

394
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,100
possess these things, which
causes us to think that they

395
00:22:32,100 --> 00:22:36,800
kind of have a better grasp on
on life and On The World At

396
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,600
Large when really?
They're just as human as you are

397
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,000
I exactly.
You know, exactly.

398
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,500
So you know, I seized Palin,
talented people really have deep

399
00:22:45,500 --> 00:22:48,300
wounds like you were saying
like, you know, baggage, you

400
00:22:48,300 --> 00:22:52,600
know, issues and that affect how
they walk through life and what

401
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,800
does it, what does like big Big
issues and stuff like that,

402
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,100
make.
Really fucking good music.

403
00:22:59,700 --> 00:23:02,200
Exactly.
That's right.

404
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,600
It's like, it gives you a
different point of view.

405
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,100
Uh-huh.
That's right.

406
00:23:06,100 --> 00:23:08,700
That's right.
And the other thing is that,

407
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:14,000
like I said, people have
everyone has demons Rich and

408
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,100
famous.
It's more visible, right?

409
00:23:16,100 --> 00:23:19,200
You're living your life in front
of everybody's face, right?

410
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,000
You have no privacy.
I am right?

411
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,500
Exactly.
I mean, I could have 12 family

412
00:23:23,500 --> 00:23:26,000
members going through the exact
same thing, but it's just no one

413
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,900
knows about it and they could
three of them could have died at

414
00:23:27,900 --> 00:23:30,500
27, right?
Yeah, it's just that like this,

415
00:23:30,500 --> 00:23:34,100
you get this visibility around
these poor people that have to

416
00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:39,500
deal with their Human Condition
in front of everybody, everyone.

417
00:23:39,500 --> 00:23:41,800
And and they don't have privacy
and they have these crazy

418
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:46,700
fucking Schedules, you know, I
think that, you know, it makes

419
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:51,300
wonderful music and art, but it
would really be a detriment to

420
00:23:51,300 --> 00:23:54,300
say that these people are just a
phenomenon or a statistic of the

421
00:23:54,300 --> 00:23:58,700
27 club, right there, their
normal way more, these right who

422
00:23:58,700 --> 00:24:01,400
have issues, you know, where I
was.

423
00:24:01,700 --> 00:24:04,400
We were talking about those
first three people who had

424
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,800
joined the club where people are
like, what the fuck, you know,

425
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:12,600
Jimmy Janice and Jim.
So you know she AJ.

426
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:20,500
Did you just aah?
That's another. 27 Club cry.

427
00:24:20,500 --> 00:24:22,500
J.
They have like they have

428
00:24:22,500 --> 00:24:23,400
different ones?
Yeah.

429
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:24,600
Triple J.
Triple J.

430
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,300
Like Triple Threat.
They have like specific

431
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:29,800
insignias when they walk into
the club.

432
00:24:30,100 --> 00:24:31,200
That's a big old Jr.'s.
Right.

433
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,200
Exactly.
So, do you know how they died?

434
00:24:35,500 --> 00:24:39,100
Let's see.
Jimmy Janice.

435
00:24:39,100 --> 00:24:42,700
No you're not.
So James I just assumed it was

436
00:24:42,700 --> 00:24:45,900
all excess but maybe right.
Yeah.

437
00:24:45,900 --> 00:24:48,700
You assume because it's like the
nineteen fucking 60s and like,

438
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,800
free love.
Everyone's doing drugs and shit

439
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,600
because you know, Spirit
experimental, blah, blah.

440
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,100
So Jimi, Hendrix.
You know, arguably one of the

441
00:24:57,100 --> 00:25:00,400
most one of the best like most
talented guitar players that has

442
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:07,200
ever guitard, you know, he had,
he actually was plagued with we,

443
00:25:07,300 --> 00:25:08,700
I know him from that that space,
right?

444
00:25:08,700 --> 00:25:13,100
We know him as like, such an
amazing talent people still talk

445
00:25:13,100 --> 00:25:15,100
about him.
I, you know, we still listen to

446
00:25:15,100 --> 00:25:17,900
him, he's still relevant today,
you know, and he had died in

447
00:25:17,900 --> 00:25:20,900
1970.
So that's fucking crazy anyway.

448
00:25:21,900 --> 00:25:26,700
We know about his guitar playing
but he was plagued by parental

449
00:25:26,700 --> 00:25:29,500
abuse.
So he had, he was incredibly

450
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:33,300
abused as a child.
He also had alcohol issues with

451
00:25:33,300 --> 00:25:36,000
alcohol and drugs probably due
to that.

452
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,300
So he Died from asphyxiation in
the UK.

453
00:25:40,700 --> 00:25:43,500
After taking a massive amount of
barbiturates actually like nine

454
00:25:43,500 --> 00:25:45,500
times what he was supposed to
have taken.

455
00:25:45,500 --> 00:25:49,600
Yeah.
So it's not like her boy to dies

456
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,600
fixation.
Yes, like yes.

457
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:55,400
Expectation on his own vomit.
Ultimately like not glamorous,

458
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,300
not hot, nothing cool.
Or sexy or rock, and roll about

459
00:25:59,300 --> 00:26:01,700
that.
It's just, you know, sad and too

460
00:26:01,700 --> 00:26:04,200
fucking depressing.
So, but people are like, oh, so

461
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,100
it's sexy, he's sexy, he's so
talented, 27 Club.

462
00:26:07,300 --> 00:26:10,400
It's like know he had his demons
that he couldn't, you know,

463
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,500
fight.
So then we have Janis Joplin,

464
00:26:13,700 --> 00:26:16,200
right?
Absolute fucking Powerhouse of a

465
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,500
performer.
Like, you've heard her songs,

466
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:21,000
like Mercedes-Benz, like piece
of my heart.

467
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:25,400
Like she, I mean, she has such a
crazy awesome voice, right?

468
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:31,000
She struggled with self-image
and depression and she died of a

469
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,300
heroin overdose and everyone's
like sitting there.

470
00:26:33,500 --> 00:26:36,500
But, you know, I was looking as
I was like, reading about these

471
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:39,900
I was like, oh, you know, how
did they die?

472
00:26:39,900 --> 00:26:42,000
And there's always, like a
caveat.

473
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,300
Everyone always has a caveat
like, well, you know, how do you

474
00:26:45,300 --> 00:26:47,500
know if she actually died from a
heroin overdose?

475
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:49,900
She was holding onto the pack of
cigarettes that she just bought.

476
00:26:49,900 --> 00:26:53,600
It's like, dude, she hit like
she died of a fucking heroin

477
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,300
overdose like, you don't like,
they're like, oh, her body

478
00:26:57,300 --> 00:26:59,700
should have been crumpled in a
specific position it's like

479
00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:03,500
just, okay.
So trying to add a conspiracy

480
00:27:03,500 --> 00:27:06,100
like I don't know someone's
trying to kill her.

481
00:27:06,100 --> 00:27:07,600
Same thing with Jimi.
Derek's.

482
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,800
It's like no, no.
They they died and people are

483
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,600
just trying to make sense of it,
right?

484
00:27:13,700 --> 00:27:16,400
That's exactly, right Cynthia,
and like you said before and

485
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,400
then just so happens.
I'm 27 years old.

486
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:25,600
So that adds to the Mystique,
some level of reasoning, it adds

487
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,600
to purpose and adds to yeah,
yeah, yeah.

488
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,700
It gives you a reason as to why
these things happen not just

489
00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:37,100
like these massive, like, Titans
musician, type musical Titan,

490
00:27:37,300 --> 00:27:41,900
Like are really fucking, you
know, fragile human beings that,

491
00:27:41,900 --> 00:27:44,600
you know, took too much shit,
right?

492
00:27:45,100 --> 00:27:49,800
So Jim Morrison, mmm.
You look up his death today and

493
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,000
it says, heart failure.
Okay, or a heart attack, that's

494
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,500
what it says.
Oh, he died of a heart attack or

495
00:27:54,500 --> 00:27:58,600
heart failure at 27 bullshit
because of too much coke.

496
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:00,300
Right?
Exactly.

497
00:28:00,500 --> 00:28:02,500
That's that's one way to look at
it right.

498
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,300
There was never an autopsy done.
You know, he actually was

499
00:28:05,300 --> 00:28:08,400
actually believed to have been A
drug overdose.

500
00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:11,000
That was kind of covered up at
the time and called a heart

501
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,400
attack.
They never did an autopsy.

502
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,100
They never did anything there.
They just laid him to rest.

503
00:28:16,100 --> 00:28:21,400
And that's weird though.
I mean once again if you sit

504
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,100
there like especially at that
time, like you know how even

505
00:28:24,100 --> 00:28:27,500
today we have like celebrities
were like, oh, they're just

506
00:28:27,500 --> 00:28:32,200
tired or like they're going to.
They need some rest and really

507
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,300
rest is like fucking rehab,
right?

508
00:28:35,300 --> 00:28:40,100
So it's like, it's not so.
Far removed from today.

509
00:28:40,100 --> 00:28:41,400
Let's try not to get us off
topic.

510
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,500
Yeah, go ahead.
That's just proves.

511
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:49,600
That's in the other thing.
I, if someone in my family, died

512
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,700
of a heart attack, unless they
definitely knew that for some

513
00:28:53,700 --> 00:28:58,400
way they would autopsy right,
but because you're rich and

514
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,600
famous somehow, you grease The
Palms or something.

515
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,800
Yeah.
You know, you get this Escape.

516
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,100
All that kind of stuff.
Yeah, you get to cover it up.

517
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,500
It up like same thing, like so
Amy Winehouse, like she her

518
00:29:11,500 --> 00:29:16,200
death, was she overdosed on?
Like, she had like one she was a

519
00:29:16,208 --> 00:29:20,500
bulimic.
So she had been sober for a

520
00:29:20,508 --> 00:29:22,700
period of time and then started
drinking again and really

521
00:29:22,700 --> 00:29:24,300
drinking was like her issue but
she's done.

522
00:29:24,300 --> 00:29:26,200
Like she had done heroin.
She did everything.

523
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,400
Okay?
Yeah, it's awful.

524
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,300
She was so talented.
But yeah, she had all these

525
00:29:30,300 --> 00:29:32,600
fucking problems and her
grandmother died, which was like

526
00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,100
brilliant.
Matriarch, really, very

527
00:29:34,100 --> 00:29:35,200
important.
Person in her family.

528
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:40,900
She never dealt with that.
Among other things but she, you

529
00:29:40,900 --> 00:29:44,500
know, started drinking and was
drinking like fucking handles of

530
00:29:44,500 --> 00:29:48,200
vodka and she weighed like,
maybe a hundred pounds, you

531
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,000
know?
So it's like, she died of an

532
00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,100
alkyl.
A, this is why these delivers?

533
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:55,400
Hell yeah, yes, and it's like
her liver.

534
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,900
Yeah, she was done, it was done.
So she maybe if she would have

535
00:29:58,908 --> 00:30:02,300
been, you know, not bulimic, she
could have survived but her body

536
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:05,100
was fucking week.
You know, you all of these

537
00:30:05,100 --> 00:30:07,100
people really struggled with
addiction.

538
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,800
Same, you know, stardom and
their their own demons in their

539
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,800
lives.
So one thing that I really want

540
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:19,700
to make a parent in this is that
the 27 Club is not something to

541
00:30:19,700 --> 00:30:23,400
Aspire to be a part of, right.
Like we start out like there's

542
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,100
no way that we could be a part
of it, right?

543
00:30:25,900 --> 00:30:27,900
But want to.
Yeah we don't want to it's not

544
00:30:27,900 --> 00:30:31,800
sexy or glamorous, right?
Like it's you know lonely and it

545
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,300
lacks hope.
And here's my soapbox, okay,

546
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,200
okay.
If Or someone, you know, are

547
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,800
going down that road fucking
talk to someone talk to anyone.

548
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,000
You know, it's just not worth it
and you're certainly not alone.

549
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,100
Well actually have sources in
our show notes wherever you're

550
00:30:48,100 --> 00:30:51,300
currently listening and also on
our website at the bazaar EF

551
00:30:51,300 --> 00:30:57,700
www.the by the RAF.com.
So yeah that's that's the 27

552
00:30:57,700 --> 00:30:59,200
Club.
Great pocket.

553
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,500
We don't want to be a part of
it.

554
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,200
So do you have?
So we'll, we'll need to put in

555
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,200
the show notes a list?
Yes, of the names.

556
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,000
That would be fair.
Fascinating.

557
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,200
So it's actually yeah, it is in
our show notes.

558
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,400
It's in the Wikipedia article,
if you scroll down, you can see

559
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,500
everyone.
And what's interesting is that,

560
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:20,900
of course, once the 27 Club, you
know, had been coined or Turner

561
00:31:20,900 --> 00:31:24,700
like I deemed a club, then
people started going back into

562
00:31:24,700 --> 00:31:28,800
history and say, oh, this person
would died at 2700 this person.

563
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,300
It's like, okay, well you're
going back in time and Marie

564
00:31:31,300 --> 00:31:34,900
fucking writing history.
Ultimately but, and then again,

565
00:31:34,900 --> 00:31:39,500
I don't I Hate to be the guy
that's glass half empty.

566
00:31:39,500 --> 00:31:42,200
But you can, you can make a 33
club and if you could buy of

567
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,700
Club at a 3850 fucking 452 Club,
apparently, right?

568
00:31:46,700 --> 00:31:48,900
Like, that's R56 whatever
fucking agent is.

569
00:31:48,900 --> 00:31:51,000
Like, that's more statistically
significant.

570
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,700
Think, like you said, if it
gives you some sort of a comfort

571
00:31:53,700 --> 00:31:58,200
as to a reason or whatever then
that's okay, that's okay.

572
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,800
Yeah, that's fine.
But also know that these people

573
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,100
were struggling with demons and
like we all have fucking demons.

574
00:32:04,100 --> 00:32:09,800
We all have like shit that We
are dealing with and there is no

575
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:15,000
reason to, you know, to drown
ourselves as although, it might

576
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,600
be fun and look glamorous
initially like there's no reason

577
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,200
to go down that road.
There's help.

578
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,600
And even if you can't afford,
you know, help or whatever, like

579
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,600
they're fucking 1-800 numbers.
Like, talk to a friend or, you

580
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,900
know, I don't know, Tommy just
said, the new 811, right?

581
00:32:31,300 --> 00:32:32,700
Yeah.
Yeah, uh-huh.

582
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,400
Yeah, there are there's so many
like so some of the resources

583
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,800
that we have Also Amy Winehouse
Foundation.

584
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,500
If you're located in the UK,
they actually do a lot of work

585
00:32:41,500 --> 00:32:45,900
with young people who are
struggling with addiction and

586
00:32:45,908 --> 00:32:48,600
depression.
Well, and yeah, young people in

587
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,600
general, like, in their 20s and
stuff like that.

588
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,200
So, you know, there are
foundations.

589
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,000
There are resources for help,
it's just so calm.

590
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,800
It seems like it's way more.
So, that's the other thing.

591
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:02,400
Mmm, like why, why is mental
health such a problem now, I

592
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,700
mean, dude, I got another
patient, I I'm in therapy.

593
00:33:05,700 --> 00:33:09,700
I am proud a proud.
Like therapy goer every other

594
00:33:09,700 --> 00:33:11,600
week.
Shout out to Lisa.

595
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,800
Hey Lisa, you know my therapist
is awesome.

596
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:19,700
I, you know, I have someone that
I can talk to that, you know, is

597
00:33:20,300 --> 00:33:23,800
I think, you know, I'm pretty
well-adjusted but I have some

598
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,200
fucked-up shit.
My background, you know, I'm a

599
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,100
fucked-up person in general.
But, you know, I'm trying to be

600
00:33:29,100 --> 00:33:32,400
better every day and it's
admitting, it's admitting that

601
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:36,200
like none of us are perfect.
We all have skeletons in our

602
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,200
closet.
That the, you know, they're

603
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,500
never going to leave, right?
So, how the fuck do you learn,

604
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:44,500
how to deal with them?
And that's what therapy and

605
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:46,700
talking to your friends and
having a support system and

606
00:33:46,700 --> 00:33:49,400
figuring out a support system?
That's why those things are so

607
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,500
relevant.
These people didn't have that,

608
00:33:51,500 --> 00:33:52,500
right?
Mmm.

609
00:33:52,500 --> 00:33:55,600
Because they wouldn't be like,
overdosing on fucking heroin.

610
00:33:55,900 --> 00:33:58,300
If they did.
Like if they had if they had the

611
00:33:58,300 --> 00:34:01,300
resources or sought it out you
know, maybe they'd still be

612
00:34:01,300 --> 00:34:04,500
alive today.
Yeah, and it's important.

613
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:06,700
It shouldn't be a stigma.
There should be no Stigma

614
00:34:06,700 --> 00:34:07,800
person.
Not right.

615
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,900
Like hey, you want to talk to
talk to us, send it, go on our

616
00:34:10,900 --> 00:34:13,000
fucking website, like send a
fucking message, and be like,

617
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:17,300
hey, I'm fuck this shit, won't
send you a message back and be

618
00:34:17,300 --> 00:34:20,300
like, yeah, fuck this shit.
You know, you're not alone.

619
00:34:20,300 --> 00:34:22,500
It's just it's not, it's not
worth it at all.

620
00:34:22,500 --> 00:34:28,600
To, to feel like you, you know,
don't have any other, you know,

621
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,699
options in life because there
are other options, right?

622
00:34:31,699 --> 00:34:34,000
Are in your you've gone to
therapy to, right?

623
00:34:34,100 --> 00:34:36,600
I've never gone.
Had a therapy session shut up.

624
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:38,699
Matt.
Oh my god, with that could be.

625
00:34:38,699 --> 00:34:42,100
That could be like a fucking
topic and that's okay.

626
00:34:42,699 --> 00:34:45,100
I blame it on preservatives
preservatives.

627
00:34:45,100 --> 00:34:50,199
Yes, what's oh, it's fucked.
People up over the last 100

628
00:34:50,199 --> 00:34:52,500
years.
Oh, so that's why we need.

629
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,400
Don't you think that like it's
always been there.

630
00:34:55,500 --> 00:35:00,900
There's an answer until hell.
I mean, I think all of this fake

631
00:35:00,900 --> 00:35:02,500
shit, that we put into our
bodies.

632
00:35:02,500 --> 00:35:04,300
God, this is blame it on
preservatives.

633
00:35:04,300 --> 00:35:08,800
This is a future talk.
I definitely think it's a future

634
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:10,000
topic.
I do.

635
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,700
And, you know, I think this is
like I'm happy that we talked

636
00:35:12,700 --> 00:35:15,600
about the 27 club today because
I do think it's very important

637
00:35:15,900 --> 00:35:18,900
and maybe you don't need therapy
necessarily but maybe, you know,

638
00:35:18,900 --> 00:35:22,500
you have fun.
Some everyone needs.

639
00:35:23,100 --> 00:35:25,700
Everyone needs.
We are human being, we're human

640
00:35:25,700 --> 00:35:27,900
beings.
We're not meant to be alone and

641
00:35:27,900 --> 00:35:32,900
we are meant to be together and
it's important to get help some,

642
00:35:32,900 --> 00:35:35,200
if you need help, whatever it
may be.

643
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,000
Yes, absolutely.
And talking.

644
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,200
As dumb as it seems like just
talking something out.

645
00:35:40,300 --> 00:35:43,000
It helps for some weird dumb
reason.

646
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,100
It totally feels like it's
bullshit.

647
00:35:45,100 --> 00:35:48,000
But actually, it's not and like
sometimes it takes like a little

648
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,300
bit of the burden that you're
feeling that you're carrying

649
00:35:50,300 --> 00:35:52,200
with a carrying along every
single day.

650
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:53,800
It takes a little bit of that
often.

651
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,600
There's no knowing someone
knows, you knowing that someone

652
00:35:57,900 --> 00:36:01,900
is there to kind of guide you
and support you and understand

653
00:36:01,900 --> 00:36:03,100
you and see you.
Yeah.

654
00:36:03,100 --> 00:36:05,200
That mean that's something it's
definitely something.

655
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,300
Well, thanks, The 20s.
It's weird.

656
00:36:08,500 --> 00:36:10,400
So, we'll have to say it's dude,
weird.

657
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:11,700
Yeah.
It's very bizarre.

658
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,800
It's bizarre and so many aspects
and also wonder did they pick

659
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,300
the?
Did it become to be?

660
00:36:17,300 --> 00:36:20,000
Just because those three
happened to start it because

661
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,800
that's when it started, right?
As when those three died, I

662
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,900
think that it was really
because, you know, you have Jim

663
00:36:24,900 --> 00:36:27,800
Morrison of The Doors, like he
was.

664
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,800
There were fucking huge, right?
Yeah.

665
00:36:30,300 --> 00:36:33,100
Jimi Hendrix fucking huge,
right?

666
00:36:33,300 --> 00:36:36,300
You know, Janis Joplin huge mass
of.

667
00:36:36,300 --> 00:36:38,900
These were men.
Of stars and they almost died.

668
00:36:38,900 --> 00:36:41,000
Um, someone clicked him together
and like, oh my God, they all

669
00:36:41,008 --> 00:36:43,200
three dead.
Hey they're all 27, all 27.

670
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,700
Like what is it?
Maybe it has nothing to do with

671
00:36:45,700 --> 00:36:47,400
the amassing amounts of fucking
drugs.

672
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,900
Everyone's dance festivals.
It has everything to do with

673
00:36:49,900 --> 00:36:52,500
about a 27.
Yeah, yeah.

674
00:36:52,500 --> 00:36:55,200
I mean, it's just trying to make
sense of something that, you

675
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:56,900
know, trying to make sense of
this world, right?

676
00:36:56,900 --> 00:36:59,900
So what it is and there's
nothing wrong with trying to

677
00:36:59,908 --> 00:37:02,500
figure that out.
But ultimately all these people

678
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:05,500
had fucking demons.
They're not perfect right for

679
00:37:05,500 --> 00:37:08,000
sure, but they're cool.
But Like, you can be cool and

680
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,000
also have Demons, of course.
Look at me.

681
00:37:11,500 --> 00:37:14,400
I mean, exactly.
We're in the presence of fucking

682
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,100
Kevin right now.
Yeah, thank you for giving me an

683
00:37:17,100 --> 00:37:19,400
excuse to wear massive amounts
of eyeliner.

684
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,600
Yes.
Oh my gosh, I you know what we

685
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,900
could have done like that, like
smokey eyes, like, really smoked

686
00:37:25,900 --> 00:37:28,100
out.
I tried to make it like, almost

687
00:37:28,100 --> 00:37:30,100
a me because Amy is my girl.
I do.

688
00:37:30,100 --> 00:37:31,800
I like, the little wing on your
eyeball.

689
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,900
I should have done it way.
More extreme could have, like,

690
00:37:33,900 --> 00:37:36,100
the like poop.
Yes, I wanted to do that.

691
00:37:36,100 --> 00:37:40,000
But you know, No TMI.
We are going to be recording

692
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,400
another podcast, I so I
couldn't.

693
00:37:42,500 --> 00:37:44,100
Well, that's the thing.
I'm have to watch this.

694
00:37:44,300 --> 00:37:48,200
Yes.
Apply for the next one, I think.

695
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,200
Yeah, for sure.
Well, thanks for the topic.

696
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:52,400
Thank you.
Boom.

697
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,700
Okay, you too and we'll see you
in the next episode.

698
00:37:55,700 --> 00:37:57,300
On the flip side.
Okay.

699
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:58,900
Breathe.
