David Owes Them a Million Dollars

I think I've said this story on the podcast. It was like to John or something. And I'm like, yeah, I, um, I— oh, you paid for my McDoubles. And my Fruitopia, and I didn't pay you back at all. And he's like, what? I'm like, remember we went inside that day? And he's like, oh my God, I remember. And yeah, I snuck it by him, because paying back our friends in our hometown was a big deal because we didn't have a lot of money. So it was like every dollar you owed back to your friend. But yeah, can I tell you something about something interesting that happened? My friend, he's working on a He's working on a show and they hired a bunch of kids to come in and play the background noise. They came into like a studio and they had to record the sound of the kids talking, 'cause the scene was in a, it was in like an auditorium, right? So they needed background sounds of a bunch of kids having a conversation to play behind the scene. Does that make sense? Like ADR. So there's like maybe 10 kids that came in to work, and the director— this is what he told me— the director goes, guys, can you do me a favor and just do that scene one more time, except this time a little more emotion? And one kid goes, I don't identify as a guy. And then like 4 of the others joined in too. And it was like 7 out of the 10 kids were really mad. That the director called them guys. These are like 14-year-old kids, like, just like, like upset. Like, that's not— we are— we're not— we're not girls or boys. Like, we're not identifying as anything. And it wasn't even like a joke. Like, you know, people joke around and they're like, um, don't assume my gender. Like, people make like weird jokes like that.
