Starting point is 00:00:30 At the moment I'm listening to a room for myself, a feminist fight book, you could say that, by Virginia Woolf from 1929.

Starting point is 00:01:09 Advertising, end. Drinnies, the podcast from the comfort zone. Drinnies, the podcast from the comfort zone. We hope you're doing well, and if not, it's okay. Welcome to a new episode of Drinnies. It's Drinnie Tuesday again. We're back. Hey guys, Brad is over, but summer is still here. Summer is still coming. I notice at night when I opened the window, it was already very I open the window, it's very cold, the air is so autumn-like.
Starting point is 00:01:51 I've got a little pumpkin spice, it's a bit rusted now. But during the day it gets really hot. He wants to know again. At night the pumpkin pyramid is built up internally and during the day it's torn again. Or it's moldy, you know, so hot. Yes, exactly. And then the ants come at night. A very big problem, too early-built
Starting point is 00:02:08 pyramid of pumpkins in Germany. What I liked in the summer are these strawberry stands and before with asparagus, where all the young people work. And then you sometimes see one person working and then they are visited by two friends. Yes, I love that too. I like that somehow. That's a vibe for me.
Starting point is 00:02:23 At the strawberry strawberry stand, just meeting friends. the Spargel Erdbeer stand. Yeah, you have to make the work a little easier. And I mean, it's also good for the workers. If there's customers, if it looks like that, that would always be done. You know it from the market. If there's a lot going on at one stand, then the other people will also be attracted to it.
Starting point is 00:02:40 Then they go there. If there's nobody, nobody goes. That's why people always from the compass party are engaged for their own store or own stand. Yes, if you don't have any friends, nobody goes. That's why people always work in the compasses for their own shop or stand. Yeah, if you don't have any friends, for example. What would you do if you were to celebrate a wedding or a round of births and you realize that the circle of friends is a bit thin?
Starting point is 00:02:55 It's kind of thinned out like the house fall, the circle of friends is finally with a friendship. If you say, well, 50 euros for statists from the compassasum department. For the photo, so it looks more like it. Yes, you could say, I know from the work that you may not have for a long time, or from the studies that you actually don't continue for a long time,
Starting point is 00:03:14 you're in the 32nd semester. Is there anything against it to use morally, if you try to present something that you are not? I think in war and at weddings everything is allowed. Morally, everything is in there. Is that so? Yes. You can do everything, you can order compas,
Starting point is 00:03:31 you can let your ex jump out of the cake naked at 12 o'clock at night. That's all okay. Yes. You plan your wedding yourself, those are your rules, your wedding, your rules. I have the impression that celebrating round birthdays party is not such a thing anymore. Is it? I don't know. Can you imagine?
Starting point is 00:03:47 But maybe just the hope. Maybe just the feelings of novelty, especially with you. I'm not a big fan of that. Yes, I see it coming. Yes. I see it coming. Like the pyramid. A round birthday, why? What's the deal?
Starting point is 00:04:00 So, honestly. But I don't want to be such a scoundrel. People should celebrate the holidays like they do. That's the way it is. Last time I had an appointment, I went somewhere. I don't want to say what. But I was greeted with the sentence, I've been expecting you. And I asked myself, what kind of sentence is that?
Starting point is 00:04:16 What kind of appointment, Chris? I don't want to say. It doesn't matter. Work appointment? No, it doesn't matter. Health? I don't want to say. Finances? I don't want to say. Finance? I don't want to say.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Supermarket? Food? What do you mean you don't understand? Non food? I was greeted with the sentence... Were you at Schneider? Hello Mr. Sommer, I've been expecting you. No, I wasn't at Schneider.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Were you secretly at Schneider, Chris? Yes. I got a hat braided. A hat braided at Schneider. Yes, I've been expecting you. For me, I have to say, it was a bit provocative. A bit. Because I asked myself, what does the sentence mean?
Starting point is 00:04:51 You had me wait? That's how it came to me. I was of course directly on the edge. It's important to always start with the worst. From the beginning, second one. He really wants to convince me that he had to wait for me for a long time. But now it's enough! You know, what does that mean?
Starting point is 00:05:09 They've been expecting me. Shut up! No, but you don't know that. I've been expecting you. I think you want to signal that you were looking forward to it. Well, not really, right? So Chris, to be honest, I have to say, I'm a little worried about that,
Starting point is 00:05:23 because to be honest, I only know this sentence from an 80s, where butlers were involved. I wonder what kind of appointment it was, and I have to read it out of your eyes, which is impossible for me because I don't have my glasses on. I don't like this situation at all. In which situation does someone tell you, that they've been expecting you? The capo is expecting her in the back room, from the butcher shop. In which situation does someone tell you, I've been expecting you? Exactly, the carpenter is already expecting you.
Starting point is 00:05:45 In the back room. Or from the butcher shop. In the west wing. And then you're sitting there with a white cat in your hand. Yes. What's that supposed to mean? Yes, but I also find it very strange. I have to admit, I find it a strange opening.
Starting point is 00:05:57 It's like that, but what's hiding behind it? That's the question. And I have to say, it was a difficult feeling with which I started. But it has then massively improved. But I don't want to say, it was a difficult feeling with which I started. But it has improved massively. But I don't want to say what I'm there for. It's a bit, it reminds me a bit, it's a weird opening.
Starting point is 00:06:12 It reminds me, I'm playing a lot of chess right now. It reminds me of this Scandinavian opening that I recently learned, which is a bit of a scam. It's a bit about changing things and sacrificing many figures for for a maneuver you do. And I have to say, that's a bit of a scam. And that's how it feels when someone says, I've already expected it, I can't start anything with it.
Starting point is 00:06:34 I feel strange. I would rather give up on it, just like on the Scandinavian opening. I saw a completely different opening on the Autobahnera recently. This transition. I have to say, a big hello. I saw on the highway last time. This transition. I have to say, a big hello. It just kind of disturbed me. I mean, I expected it.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Actually a little thing, where a pebble in my shoe, which I take out briefly, then the thing is cleared. I've been waiting for you. I didn't expect a big thing. But now something comes, which has already aroused me to think about the rest of the highway ride and then somehow has also entertained me well. So I was hungry, I was on the road for a long time, there was nothing to prevent, I had to do that. And then I had a sandwich with me, a nice baguette.
Starting point is 00:07:18 Russi Pani? Really, a crostino. Crostino. A nice... Really... Something that's baked, that's so hard on top, that it puts the rind on the back. Yes, and also baked really hard on top, so that it's really on the gums. Exactly. That's why the half kilo remoulade
Starting point is 00:07:36 is in between, which has already been through everything. On this crust. I think they put the remoulade on top, so that it gives a protective coat on the gums. Exactly. And the crust doesn't get on it. This torn crust, it just rips the tent off. It's just like that. And I was looking forward to that and thought, well...
Starting point is 00:07:54 You're looking forward to that. I'd like to take responsibility for that. I won't put my feet on the car. I was at the wheel and was eating a sandwich. I'm driving on the right, I to Autobahn-Rastetter. Safe is safe, krass. Right, that's how it is. It was an interesting, good atmosphere,
Starting point is 00:08:10 it was peaceful, I must say, Autobahn-Rastetter. It wasn't like a café, where you can eat at a buffet, it was just little toilets. Basic. And then the truck drivers had a barbecue. It was familiar. It was a lot of work, I must say. It was well-loaded.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Then I sat there on a bench next to the car. It was hot. I looked for a place to hide. I was in the bathroom. I have to say, bathroom not very clean, but you know that. You know that in a city. But it's okay. You go there. You have to be happy that you can go somewhere safe. So, then a white BMW X5 came.
Starting point is 00:08:48 A really big car where you think, why do you have something like that? It raced. A father, as it turned out, I hope it was the father, jumps out. Next to it a woman from Bayerfahrer sits. Presumably the mother jumps out. The doors are opened in the back. Two children are picked up. she jumps out, next to a woman from Bayerfahrer sits, probably the mother jumps out, the doors are opened, two children are taken out,
Starting point is 00:09:09 who, I'll say, were seven, eight, nine. So, actually, both of them could have gone. They were lopped out, lifted out, then the pants were pulled down, the children were grabbed under the armpits by their father and mother children were grabbed under the armpits by their parents. They were lifted over the sidewalk. And then they just shuffled around.
Starting point is 00:09:31 They poked the children. And then they were lowered down again. They pulled up their pants themselves. And then the father said, Zack, Zack, Zack! Then they had to run back into the car, into the white BMW X5. And then they were dusted away again.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Even though there was a toilet 20 meters away, where they could have gone in. Obviously, the father was very concerned about efficiency. I've never seen anything like that. It's like a franc-thelan on the check-in switch. Yes, like the Tour de France mood. So out, quickly, ships, and really, fascinating what made me think about it,
Starting point is 00:10:09 to buy it, that there are really 20 people who have just taken a break, plus truck drivers who have set up a one way grill. Better to buy that, that you are reviewed when you pee, because you just couldn't look away, I'm sorry, instead of going to the, I'll say, not so clean rest area toilet. No. So really crazy.
Starting point is 00:10:28 But just on the parking lot or what? On the parking lot, really, just on the sidewalk. In the heat on the asphalt. Yes, so there was actually grass there, high-growth grass. I think it should have actually gone in there, but there weren't enough, it was just on the sidewalk. No. And I would say the children would have also been able to go there on their own.
Starting point is 00:10:49 No, that's wrong. What I liked was that the guy was wearing a turquoise-blue polo shirt and put it into the relatively tight jeans with a brown belt. He was a sporty guy, where you know he's a little more penetrating neighbor. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, he goes to the mailbox every morning with a mark of swear, where he knows there's a new ad in there. The police report that a neighbor reported something again
Starting point is 00:11:15 because of an illegally built stone garden or a metal fence that was built. Then he puts the letter on the back and says he has so many marks of swear that they're fighting each other. But on their own. and then he puts the letters on the back of his head and he has so many where I always thought it would be a construction site wall, which would be so temporary. They've now raised something up as a support for the construction site, with a bit of a fence around it, just pouring the stones in there. It's just a practical thing, it's quick and inexpensive.
Starting point is 00:11:57 That's what I thought. But at some point I realized that it should be like that, that it should stay like that. People feel that as aesthetic, and these are the people who feel a BMW feel that as aesthetic, and that's also the people who feel a BMW X5 as aesthetic and who can afford it. But I liked it, so his Elan, when he was there from the hip, often also observed, he turned around the hip a lot,
Starting point is 00:12:15 so he has no damage to the performance. Very, very, I'll say, agile. And as I said, certainly three meters high fences at home around the family house in the I put some ice down here so that it burns properly again and then I was happy to go home. Okay, great. Then I'm happy, Chris. I want to do something crazy. You know Chris, it's actually unbelievable, it's already the end of August. How did that happen? It felt like May, but now it's probably the end of August, then I'll take it like that. End of August, I've been expecting you. Yes, I've been expecting you too.
Starting point is 00:13:05 And honestly, it's only logical that we're listening to the Drinni of the Month. I want to do this a little earlier today, because the Drinni of the Month stories are often so outstanding, they deserve attention. I can't answer that people are already dusted away with one ear or have foam in their ear in the shower. People should hear what was sent in to info while taking a shower. People should hear what we've been sent here
Starting point is 00:13:26 at infoatrinis.de, where you can send us your most important story. In general, I have the impression that we have the top of the podcast listeners, among our listeners. Good emails, always purposeful, never emails where you think, I could google that myself. Very rarely such an email. Often good humor or if, then no humor at all, which is right for me too.
Starting point is 00:13:47 So on point. That's better, if you have no humor at all. Better than if you do what you would have, but then it's really bad. Exactly, rather completely humor-free. So really, that's delivered. You could say that. And I want you now, Christ,
Starting point is 00:14:00 to fire the festive procedures, because now the drini of the month august 2024 is drini of the month august 2024 is andreas andy andy i hope you can call yourself and Andy. In the end he described himself as Andy. I assume it's okay. Andy wrote, Servus Julia, Servus Chris, Servus Andy,
Starting point is 00:14:31 Servus Patty. Because of my first wedding day, I decided to tell you our training story. It starts with me asking my wife Luisa to marry me. After all, she introduced me to your podcast. And you don't need more reasons, do you? She said yes. Luisa a high-res antraga macht habe schließlich hat sie mir euren podcast vorgestellt und mehr gründe braucht man ja nicht oder Sie hat ja gesagt herzlichen glückwunsch andy alles gute für euch wenige wochen später fand zu unserem glück eine hochzeitsmesse gleich in unserer nähe statt
Starting point is 00:14:55 Natürlich ließen wir uns die chance nicht entgehen als wir uns um sahen wurden wir von einem standbesitzer angesprochen ob wir nicht an einem gewinnspiel teilnehmen möchten zu gewinnen gab win, we had a furniture or carpet deep cleaning session at our home. We thought, our sofa could use it well and we were excited to participate. It was about estimating the content of a container in liters. A few days later we received the happy news that we won. Full of enthusiasm and anticipation, we gave our addresses and made an appointment. When the day came, we prepared everything and waited eagerly for the cleaning specialist not knowing what was coming.
Starting point is 00:15:32 When he arrived, we let him in and showed him the cleaning sofa. When he asked us to take a seat on the sofa, I was supportive. How does he want to clean the sofa when we sit on it? He spread out a towel and presented us a great cleaning device. Suddenly it hit me coldly in the back. We did what everyone in there tried to avoid. We invited a vacuum cleaner representative directly to our house. I didn't know this brand until that point.
Starting point is 00:16:00 It rhymes with Schmühler. She's not even at the time. She's getting ready for smithers. Three hours later... Three hours later, she's trying to sell her stuff. She's trying to sell her stuff. Short question. It's the cheapest dust bag for around 2000€, right? Yes, exactly. The one that still has a nice smell. Three hours later, sales talks followed, previews, attempts, self-tests and then the actual sofa cleaning as a prelude.
Starting point is 00:16:31 That didn't go as planned and was one of the most unpleasant situations of my life. I just wanted a clean sofa and crawl into the next room until everything was over. Since my wife and I are too polite and nice, we let the salesman try to get over us, knowing that I will certainly not spend 2,000 euros for a vacuum cleaner. Finally, the seller still tries to get a discount, if we give him seven phone numbers of people who could also need such a vacuum cleaner. I can't do that to my friends and relatives, I thought. Unfortunately, we only had the cheap excuses. We are sorry, we don't know that many people. No.
Starting point is 00:17:08 He tried to help us and asked if we had any relatives or distant relatives. Unfortunately, no, was our answer. When finally he gave up and packed his vacuum cleaner he told us that there were no winners. They just told everyone
Starting point is 00:17:24 who participated that they would have won. One of the smartest and most cruel marketing ideas I know. That was our story. Thank you for making us laugh every time and warning us against exactly such drinnies. Friendly greetings from Salzburg, Andy and Luisa. Yes, dear greetings from Salzburg. Good story and of course, especially dramatic detail, that the sofa cleaning didn't work well, or not at all.
Starting point is 00:17:47 I like that very much, that it didn't work. So embarrassing somehow, if your own product doesn't work. And here as a hygiene fan, too, caution is required. I can say, cleaning the sofa, you get all the soup out of the sofa to the surface. Can go wrong, sometimes you'd rather bury the things where they are. So. But actually this old mess,
Starting point is 00:18:10 which doesn't happen to me that often anymore, because back then we would often have won a letter box. And then somehow, I don't know, something like vacuum cleaner or a car. And then you have to report it. And if you report it, you would have supposedly become a VW Polo, or a vacuum cleaner, or a traveler. But what you actually do is you pass on your data.
Starting point is 00:18:30 And I hope that Andreas and Luisa don't get more harassed by other products. The possibility is of course that the so-called leads, as I learned, are sold further, i.e. contact pages, contact data. I think they have already arrived at Mehmet Gökhan's so contact pages, contact data, are being sold on. Yeah. I think they already arrived at Mehmet Gök'er's in Turkey, at his subcontractors,
Starting point is 00:18:51 who are already so hot on the keyboard, the first people contact with their headsets. That's just this, so... I laughed like this, yeah, they don't even know seven people, but honestly, do I know seven people? I don't know. So if I but honestly, do I know seven people? I don't know. If I were convinced by a product and said,
Starting point is 00:19:08 that's a great thing, it's not overpriced, maybe it's not this vacuum cleaner, I don't know if I could recommend seven people. It's also a possibility, for example, if you feel like, oh, family is complicated, it's like politics, now just wipe out the one aunt, the one artist. You have to feel people you hate, right?
Starting point is 00:19:27 Exactly. The bridges burn. The one you connect. The one you can't do anything with. The one conspiracy theorist. You're going to pay a 2000 euro fine for that. When I came to elementary school, I remember there was this class telephone, this chain, telephone chain. Yes!
Starting point is 00:19:41 Oh, that was terrible, because I'm a baby baker. I was always the first. That was the worst. Did the class teacher call in I was always first, that was the most horrible thing. Did the class teacher call you on Sunday? Yes, she did. I have a stomachache, tomorrow it won't be anything. Julia, can you continue to call Family C? Yes, horrible.
Starting point is 00:19:55 And I was not at school for a long time, the class didn't exist for that long, so my family father came up with the idea to simply use the class telephone list at one of those vacuum cleaners' shows after asking for seven or ten addresses. No! No!
Starting point is 00:20:12 And then once this vacuum cleaner's representative called the whole class. All parents complained. That was the topic for weeks. But all the kids sat at home on a super clean couch. All the animals were taken out, all the mites. Oh no. It's a fabulous product that's being presented. The keyword is multi-level marketing.
Starting point is 00:20:40 I always think of pyramids. They have several floors and several levels. That's related to the question mark. I don't know, I can't answer it. I read somewhere that the product is worth 100 euros and sold for 2,000. It's a huge margin, I'd say. I'm more concerned a service center.
Starting point is 00:21:05 I also liked the wedding fair. Where I've never been before, I didn't have any contact points. Do people go there privately? Do you know more about them? I think that's... Or is it more like wedding planners, then Frank and relatives who look at what's the new shabby chic trend at the flower bouquet on the table?
Starting point is 00:21:24 I think that's also like the candy fair. It's mainly for businessmen, independent people from the profession. But of course there are also private people who want the free snacks. And also private people who want to be directly at the source. We're going to switch off the middle people directly. We want to know what's the hottest shit
Starting point is 00:21:43 not next year, but in the next three years. Because that's where our wedding will take place. We go straight to the source, we go straight to... To the melting pot. Exactly, we go straight to the fair hall to eat. There's the center. By the way, I'm in exchange for someone at the candy fair. At the Denuka?
Starting point is 00:22:00 Right, in Cologne, where sweets are presented. I hope we can go there. Oh my God, Chris, I reallyologne, where sweets are presented. I hope we can go there. Oh my God, Chris, I'd love to go there with you. I think it's only in February. I don't think I'll record a episode from there, but maybe we can give our impressions here and say what's the hot shit in the sweets shelf not next year, but in two or three years.
Starting point is 00:22:21 We're thinking about it next year, you know that, Chris. That's why I go to the cinema regularly to check if the third Nacho Schlitz is not only there, but also stays. Because it's important to me that I stay there. He's there now, and I was in the cinema with you yesterday, and I can now say with flair and right, the third Nacho Schlitz is still there.
Starting point is 00:22:40 And the way I see it, he stays too. And I don't want to give it away, but I can imagine that I really had a big influence on it. I have to say, this cinema visit, we haven't really talked about it yet, because we just fell asleep straight after, for reasons that we might be able to discuss in a moment. But what is the cinema snack for you?
Starting point is 00:23:00 So besides popcorn and nachos, what is such a sweet? For me it's martesas somehow. It's always something that I've I've eaten in the cinema. I'm a popcorn and nacho guy and I don't want anything else in the cinema. I just want the things you eat in the cinema. You're a cinema hardliner. And for me, as I said, cinema is a great activity. You can go there, you're a little bit on the road,
Starting point is 00:23:25 a little bit among people, if you feel like you want to experience something, but not too much. It's also dark enough that you don't have to comb your hair. Exactly, you can also wear a shogging-pants-match stretcher, it's not even braided there. And you see something. What we like to do is watch a movie
Starting point is 00:23:41 where you don't know exactly what's coming to us. Yesterday we were at this new Kevin Costner film and I knew, basically, you play a western genre in the US and it takes 180 minutes, I did a quick math, 180 minutes doesn't sound like much, like normal films, so I did a math, wait a minute,
Starting point is 00:23:58 that's three hours, that's exactly three hours. And then we went there and you said, we have to have a snack and a coke. And then you noticed, it's a bit less drinks, because three hours was nothing compared to a break. No break, three hours a piece. And it's clear, while you're out, I'm not doing that as Trini.
Starting point is 00:24:18 No. I'm not going out here with my half-clat from the Beamer Angerstral, fall over two or three naked feet. And then throw the popcorn around. Yeah, exactly. Does someone make the jogging pants with stretch-parts dirty? I don't do that.
Starting point is 00:24:32 I don't do that. There are also some operational processes. I don't want to disturb the enjoyment of the others, so I also put on some mugs. Right, right. And yesterday there were people who just talked straight. Not even whispering. Also interesting, but I totally got caught up in the film. Well, we'll get straight. Not even whispering. Also interesting. But I totally got involved in the film.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Well, we'll get to that in a minute. What you noticed, too few drinks. Then I went back again and thought, I'm going to grab a drink from the bottle. I brought it with me. And on the way back to you, I thought, hmm, a little less. I think I need something too.
Starting point is 00:25:00 I delivered the bottle to you, went back again. Then I looked, I've been to this checkout twice already. I hid behind a pillow a bit. I had to admit and waited until the checkout changed. The service. And then I went to another person. It was kind of... I can understand that, when you cross that three times.
Starting point is 00:25:17 What are you up to? Do you want to spend the night here? Why are you buying 14 drinks? And for the person, to pay off every time, every time with a card or a bar. And... Make him understand, boy. Kaufen Sie jetzt 14 Getränke. Auch für die Person jedes Mal wieder abkassieren, jedes Mal mit Karte oder Bar. Und macht ihm mal einen Begriff, Junge. Ich hab gedacht, das ist ein bisschen, war schon dispektierlich, was ich hier mach mit dem Kassenpersonal.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Ich finde auch, du solltest dich schämen, Kass. Ja, und dann glücklich mit einer Flasche zurück hingesetzt. Du auch, wir haben uns über die dunklen Treppen manövrieren können mit Popcorn und Nacho und zwei Getränken unterm Arm. Wie gesagt, gewappnet für drei Stunden. Ja. and we could maneuver over the dark stairs with popcorn and nachos and two drinks under our arms. As I said, we were in the car for three hours. Yeah. And then on the spot I took a sip of the coke and then you also noticed, what was going on there.
Starting point is 00:25:54 That was shock time. I've never experienced that. A warm coke. So obviously not chilled, but not just lukewarm, as it comes out, but really so slightly warm. So body temperature. It was so disgusting. And then it was the big bucket. The big bucket of coke, the one liter.
Starting point is 00:26:10 But we only noticed that when we sat on our seats. Of course we don't go out and say we want a new coke. I'm not going to the cash register a fourth time. If the guy comes back, I can't decide. Now he's coming back to warm coke. Yeah, but basically it was really a warm Cola. It was disgusting. Could have filled it in a bottle.
Starting point is 00:26:28 It was disgusting. It was almost in a bottle. You noticed that Cola was found in a pharmacy. You really felt that. It's unbelievable what a difference it makes. Whether a Cola is warm or cold, it's like day and night. But honestly, I was still looking forward to the cinema experience. We had two premium seats, you could still looking forward to the cinema experience.
Starting point is 00:26:45 We had two premium seats, you could still put your feet around. Yeah, it has to be at three hours, hello? Yes, and then I immediately noticed, both advertisements, which were luckily still loud, I noticed, oh, my premium seat, which you can put back, actually a bit like a desk chair that folds back, it squeaks massively. And somehow that was from the construction, that it was squeaking massively. And somehow the construction was like this,
Starting point is 00:27:06 the seats were screwed together. Then the sound passed over the spine from movie visitors to movie visitors. You played that too. When I went back, did you have the feeling that the spine was slightly rusted, that it was maybe your back? Whenever you moved, it sounded a bit like a Transformer
Starting point is 00:27:25 who's about to go to the head or something. Transformer at the chiropractor. Do you think Transformers have to go to the TÜV regularly? For years they've been getting these shitty posters. I hope so. Do they have additional outer mirrors? Because they have, like... Dead angle.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Exactly, if you have a trailer in the back, you need more space. Back to the movie, Chris. First of all, the movie was with Kevin Costner. I'll put it this way. Costner is the favorite actor of all men in my father's age. It's just a conclusion, it's not worth it. That's the target audience for this movie.
Starting point is 00:28:04 I want to briefly go into the content. It's a western movie. And let's not pretend it. The film fizzles. It fizzles a very complex topic, the colonization of North America's Native Americans. It fizzles, it makes it a little bit rosy, like a picture. Absolutely unadulterated.
Starting point is 00:28:23 But also in all other aspects just bad. The film was just bad. And I really have to say, it was the first film of my life in which I put my glasses off. And Christ, you know what that means. If I put my glasses off in everyday life, then that means this person
Starting point is 00:28:44 will now in this second, make a little niggle. Yes, I looked over at you, you were a little bit on the loose. I don't mean to say you snored, but you were a little bit off. And I then, meanwhile, actually mainly focused on that I only squeak at the loud spots with my chair. So I had, with three hours Three hours is also back pain. Back pain is a topic.
Starting point is 00:29:09 You have to change your sitting position. I could only do that at loud places. It has already cracked up. Things have exploded. But not so often. Strictly speaking, rosy mouth, pimples. I had to keep a very long distance from unquiet dialogues. With back pain. Stichwort Rosamunde Pilcher. Das heißt, ich musste sehr lange Strecken von nicht-sagenden Dialogen aushalten mit Rückenschmerzen, weil mein verrosteter Premium-Sessel
Starting point is 00:29:29 nicht halt moeistens still sich aufrichten ließ. Es war auch wirklich nur die Zielgruppe aus, und zwar nur die Zielgruppe vor Ort. Also, es waren alle Leute, ungefähr um die 60, außer wir beide. Es waren ungefähr, sag ich mal, 20 Leute im Saal und ungefähr 24 On-shoes. I didn't even notice that. You had to point me out first,
Starting point is 00:29:50 because for me as a jazz concert visitor that's a completely normal picture. Advertising. This podcast is funded by advertising. Today we have something for all streaming friends again. The fourth season of the series Only Murders in the Building can now be streamed exclusively on Disney+. It's about the podcast trio Mabel, Charles and Oliver, the declaration of a mysterious murder and their way to Hollywood, where a film studio prepares a film about their podcast.
Starting point is 00:30:20 But not everything is as it seems here. In the main roles are already the absolute legends Steve Martin, Selena Gomez and Martin Short. But there are also countless great guest stars like for example Meryl Streep, Zach Galifnekes or Melissa McCarthy. So, from now on the new season of Only Murders in the Building, exclusively on Disney Plus Stream.
Starting point is 00:30:38 I'll put it this way, 21 Emmy nominations are not coming from anywhere. The Emmy nominations don't come from anywhere. Advertisement, end. But yeah, it was very interesting. Interesting in the sense of very boring. And the absolute shock for me was that at the end, first of all, there was still Amazing Grace in the ending, which was just like that for me. It was like the cherry on top of the cake for me. But then I realized that this three-hour, unbelievably bad,
Starting point is 00:31:08 but very boring western film is part one of three. And then a huge audience came on part two and three. You asked me, whispering in the background, wait, that's part one of two? And then I said, no, part one of three. That was the worst moment. The end, which I've never seen before, was basically a trailer for part two and three.
Starting point is 00:31:32 You have to imagine, this film has a lot of loose narrative lines that are not brought together. In the end, it's just held together by saying, there's part two and three three where it hopefully comes together. And that happens there. New characters were thrown in. Like a five-minute trailer for part two and three. But you still read that Kevin Costner
Starting point is 00:31:56 couldn't find anyone who wanted to make the movie. I think he had trouble with the financing. A descendant might have a reason. And now he has to it with his own pocket. Exactly, and he wrote it himself as an actor. And you can tell he became famous as an actor. And now I'd like to set a silent minute for Kevin Costner's wealth,
Starting point is 00:32:15 which I probably drastically reduced with this film. That was a milky way of calculating, right? Let's not do that. And I have to say, I was ready for the first time, if you said, let's go out, but Lionel wouldn't have pulled it through. Of course, I noticed it in the first quarter of an hour, that's not really something for me.
Starting point is 00:32:37 That goes in the wrong direction. This story, very questionable, if not completely wrong. And I held it out. Because I thought, what is the alternative? I can sit around at home and get bored. I was just happy that after the movie, it was extremely difficult to get out of the car from the deep garage, because then I had at least a little thrill on the day. That was the most exciting thing that happened in the cinema,
Starting point is 00:33:01 that I almost drove against a small smart in the deep garage. And almost the same happened in the cinema, that I almost drove against a small Smart in the deep garage. And almost hit the concrete. That was really nice, that was a nice ending. At least the adrenaline went up after the three hours. I really have to say. And on the topic of Parkhouse, I read an interview, Chris. I would like to give you a tip now.
Starting point is 00:33:22 I read an interview with Marilyn Robinson, that's an American writer from the US. She's over 70, a very interesting and funny person. She was asked how she writes. She said she writes at night, and only at night, sometimes 12, 14, 16 hours a day, without noticing, because she leaves her body. She also said it's unhealthy.
Starting point is 00:33:44 I'm already lazy after 30 minutes. You always have to pack small things. because she leaves her body. But she also said it's not healthy, you shouldn't do that. I'm already doing 30 minutes of sleep. You always have to pack small packages. 3 times 10 minutes. A day. Isn't that a learning method? 30 minutes, then 10 minutes of break, then again 30 minutes, but then it's enough.
Starting point is 00:34:00 But 10 minutes and then 30 minutes of break is also possible. The main thing is that you do something, I always say. Well, at least Marilyn Robinson said she writes her favorite night in the parking lot. And she has a moon roof in the car, so it's kind of a panoramic roof. And then she prefers to stand in parking lots under a street lamp, so that the light shines into the car. And then she writes in the car at night. But preferably on the parking lot, she writes in a parking house,
Starting point is 00:34:31 and always in parking lots of hospitals. She says that's the ideal place. And it's totally bright when she explains it. Preferably she writes in hospital parking lots, because there is always security there. It's safe. And secondly, in hospital parking lots, people come in at any time of the day,
Starting point is 00:34:49 because of an emergency. My child is born, I lost my kidney on the street. There are always people coming in and out. Nobody asks why you drive into the hospital parking lot at 3 a.m. at night with your car. And even if you're writing something on your laptop or something, I think a lot is allowed in the hospital area. Krankenhaus, Parkhaus. Ja, und auch wenn du da irgendwas am Schreiben bist, am Laptop oder so, glaub ich, vieles erlaubt auf dem Krankenhausareal. Ja. Also, würd ich jetzt gar nicht so komisch,
Starting point is 00:35:11 wenn da jetzt jemand am Arbeiten ist. Weil, würd ich davon ausgehen, ja, hat vielleicht Angehörige, muss irgendwie warten, aber muss vielleicht auch was organisieren. Ja, und sie sagt auch, dass gut ist, dann kann die Klimaanlage regeln im Auto und sie kann rauchen. Und so sitzt sie die ganze Nacht in ihrem Auto mit Klimaanlage und Zigarette und schreibt an ihren Büchern. And she can smoke. And so she sits in her car all night with air conditioning and cigarettes and writes in her books. That's in the US, right? So engine on.
Starting point is 00:35:30 Engine on, of course. Okay, whatever. Fuck everything. Maybe she doesn't have air conditioning at home. Is that why? Probably. Yes. Probably it will be.
Starting point is 00:35:40 But yes, she can just park in the parking lot. I respect that and I find that very interesting. In the US you also have cars. Well, by now they're as big as the whole living room anyway. So... You also have a nice corner couch, a nice yellow church baroque, you can put a wardrobe in there.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Yes, I also take a lot of time to write WhatsApp messages. There is really two or three times read over it, there is also punched over it. There is also a lectorate. Exactly, lectorate, a few things, punchlines, word repeatings, exchanged, I've read some commas. But there are many people who send voice messages.
Starting point is 00:36:13 And I noticed, we've had the sentence here, every good email starts with an apology from Benjamin Quatera, who tweeted it, it was stuck. You apologize, sorry for the delay. It starts like this with every email it starts like that. And I noticed another phenomenon. Actually the continuation.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Every good voice message starts with an apology. Not for the delay, but that I send a voice message at all. People know that I don't like to receive voice messages. Although I don't know if it only affects me. I ask you now. Maybe it's a whole phenomenon. That people apologize when they record a voice message. Sorry that I'm recording a voice message here.
Starting point is 00:36:53 But here comes this and that and then it goes five and a half minutes. I get that more often too. I listen to it all at double the speed. And then you have to, somewhere at minute 1.37 is an information that you pick out information somewhere at 1.37 minutes, at 2.26, then at 3.08 comes back important information, and at the very end, before the voice message is over, there's something else to remember.
Starting point is 00:37:15 Please always send with timecode, okay? That's a good idea. Voice messages, yes, but write down where the important information is so you can skip straight to it. Or just stop apologizing. I think either or. Either you apologize. No, no, no. Completely different opinion. Completely with a demo. Sorry. Shame on me. Shame on my head. I'm ashamed of this voice message. I hate myself.
Starting point is 00:37:41 No, then don't send it. I came here to be cooked, but I have to record. I think if, then go to your own and stand by your voice message. Stand by the shit you're doing there and say, I'm sending a really cool voice message here, whether you want it or not. Or you apologize, it's embarrassing for you, then don't send it. Send a text. Done. My opinion. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Let's agree to disagree. That's so shitty. I hate it when someone is seriously fair enough. Fair enough. Let's agree to disagree. That's such a shitty sentence. I hate it when someone says, seriously, fair enough. Fair enough. I think we were asked in a podcast what the German translation is. You said, is angekommen.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Is angekommen. Fair enough means like, okay, understood. Is angekommen. But you don't want to obligate, as I understood it. But it's also passive passive aggressive, I think. And what about the other one? Disagree? No, Agree? Let's agree to disagree.
Starting point is 00:38:30 That's a kind of Kevin Costner-ness. There are people like that on both sides, in both parties. Really, there are white ad-sneakers growing on my shoes when you say something like that. Dress with t-shirt and white sneakers, so sportshow look. Dark blue jacket. Really. Fair enough. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Good. Oh my god. I have to say, I also have some courage. I start here, sit down, where I don't know how to stop her. I stutter the stuff. We all have our bags to carry, Kriss. Fair enough. Apologizing is generally a good thing for me.
Starting point is 00:39:02 First come in and say, sorry people. No, but I think there are situations where I really apologize, where generally a good thing. First come in and say, sorry, guys. There are situations where I really find apologizing strange. When I was on this appointment, I waited for you, I also said, sorry. Tell me what the appointment was. I don't care. I don't want to say, I've been waiting for you, please apologize.
Starting point is 00:39:20 I even said, fair enough. Fair enough. But honestly, there's also one situation that I find really weird, when someone dies. For example, my grandpa died once and then people say... Died once. What? Died once.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Weird. And then people come up to you and say, my condolences and stuff, I'm so sorry. And then, you know what happens to me in my head? I say, why are you sorry? What do you have to do with it? So in the sense of, what are you hiding from me? Did you have your fingers in a mirror? You mean, I'm sorry? Sorry, sorry.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Yes, as if he's apologizing for bringing my grandpa around the corner. What kind of defense behavior? Right, I think that's a weird reaction to the loss of a loved one. Makes you suspicious. Makes you suspicious automatically. I have to say, to give me over-thinking, when I say, someone says, I've been expecting you,
Starting point is 00:40:13 and you, when someone says, I'm sorry, it's just said there. Chris Fairinner. So, unforgettable the situation when someone has died from my family, who was not so close to me, I still went to the funeral, where I had to go somehow, so that not all bridges in the family would burn down.
Starting point is 00:40:30 Then I went there and there were a lot of people from this village who had never seen me in real life. Or just as a little child sometimes. And then I was standing there after this funeral service and the people didn't know if they should control me or not. They couldn't order me. Ah yes. But I couldn't say, yes, yes, I belong to that too.
Starting point is 00:40:52 But then it feels like it's their fault to say that. Yes, and then they, it was interesting to see, because the people were really in a lot of pressure, because it's a tricky topic, right? You really don't want to get anyone in the way. But internally I of course now, I was like, quiet and enjoy. They were looking at me like bombastic side-eyes. What is he doing? Who is that?
Starting point is 00:41:12 They were analyzing my look. What is he wearing? How? He was dressed properly. Had a suit, black tie. Because then it would have been totally clear. If you were wearing a Stahls, Steinmeier-like outfit, then it's clear that I'm probably the most important person there. You have to be told that.
Starting point is 00:41:28 But honestly, I didn't have a suit. And I wasn't... I was dressed up, that's what I want to say. But not so good that you'd say... I tried my best. I was tired. You were in the ladies' meeting of H&M and you bought a little melon hat. Right. Yeah, exactly. A baby sample, from 2007.
Starting point is 00:41:49 Black skinny jeans and black jacket. And I also have those pants. But honestly, I want to say that when I die, that Frank-Walter Steinmeier holds my funeral speech. Because he's the born pastor for me. He just speaks. And I would like ask you all, when you hear Frank-Weiter-Stein-Meier somewhere,
Starting point is 00:42:08 pay attention, he speaks like a pastor in Christmas God's service. And when you said that, I can't get this impression, this picture out of my head, that he's everywhere, even at very joyful events, sports events or something, German national team wins the world championship, he comes in a very happy event, a sports event or something like that, German national team, wins the world championship, and he comes in and says,
Starting point is 00:42:28 dear community, we have a lot to celebrate today. Honestly, I can't say for sure that if I met him somewhere, I wouldn't open my mouth, expecting him to put a hostia on my tongue. And I think, too, You're a real host. And I think... ... ...if you see Frank Welterstein somewhere,
Starting point is 00:42:50 for example at a town hall, like he's a young... No, he doesn't do that. But it's not that unlikely that I'll meet him, because his wife comes from the Netherlands, where I'm from. That's how it is. It could be that you'll see him somewhere in the Netherlands at a town.
Starting point is 00:43:05 Rudersdorf! Because I mean, he's of course on the road with police escort, but I mean Stein also has to go to the toilet. Yes, sure. Then he also drives out on the A61. There it is. Exactly, is maybe also a crocini where she slits a rake. Next to it there is a boy over the grass garden who pinks on a g-way. And then he might have to go too.
Starting point is 00:43:22 And then you have to be careful not to have this pastel image, that you come to him directly and pull out your tongue. No, you hold your hands and then the host comes in. Or that I don't bite anything that I did. And I think in Germany, as you often say, German comedy and stuff, it's not good. And in the US everything is much better. Yes, basically, not everything is better, but the culture of entertainment in the US is definitely there.
Starting point is 00:43:50 And even the politicians are comedians. They make gags and even have gag writers. And I think that's exactly the thing, that Frank, Frankie, Walter, Steinmeier, they were socialized in the church, and the presentation, how to present something to the people, they were influenced in the church, and the presentation, how to present something to people, he was influenced in the church and in the US by David Letterman or Johnny Carson.
Starting point is 00:44:10 It starts with, you have to be Frank W. Steinmeier. That's where it starts. That would be the first step in a new rebranding of him. The SPD can tear everything up again. Yes. If, one thing, Glass King Weil makesil makes himself a belly-knob piercing and Frank W. Steinmeier calls himself Frank W. Steinmeier.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Yes. I think that will give a new turn in Germany, like we've never seen before. Hahaha. Yes, but let's get to the end. Or? How would you, how is the end in the church in the service of God?
Starting point is 00:44:42 Uh, pray or sing again or something? Are the credits coming out? Or is there another trailer for next week? For part two, part three, what happens next week? To be continued. That's good. Or like with Arrested Development at the end, what happens in the next episode, but never happens? We should do a podcast here too.
Starting point is 00:44:58 What happens in the next... Or what happens at the beginning of the episode? What happens in this episode, what doesn't happen? I'd say we should take that with us, Chris. We should work on that. It was interesting. Fair enough. Fair enough. Good. Thank you for listening. Thank you for listening and speaking.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Otherwise it would be boring. It was a lot of fun, Julia. We too. I have to be careful not to get into a Frank W. Steinmeier thing. If you want, you can tune in next week. There will be a new episode on Tuesday, on Drinni Tuesday. And if you feel like it, give us a rating of 5 stars. You'll be happy to see you at the Federal Office of the Chancellor.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Fair enough. See you next Tuesday. We're looking forward to seeing you. Bye! Drinnies – the podcast from the comfort zone.
