00:52:29,716 --> 00:52:32,786

any song, and he chose mine.

1104
00:52:33,553 --> 00:52:35,522
And, uh, we're just
gonna skip over the fact

1105
00:52:35,655 --> 00:52:37,824
that he hit you
with his ****ing car?

1106
00:52:37,957 --> 00:52:40,860
Dude, he didn't hit me
with his car, okay? [laughs]

1107
00:52:40,994 --> 00:52:43,630
He ran over my foot.
And he feels really bad,

1108
00:52:43,730 --> 00:52:45,699
and he keeps on apologizing.
He feels really bad about it.

1109
00:52:45,832 --> 00:52:49,235
So he hurts you and then
says some sweet things to you

1110
00:52:49,402 --> 00:52:51,237
and maybe gives you some treats,

1111
00:52:51,404 --> 00:52:53,390
and now you're
just cool with it?

1112

What is your problem
with Brandyn?

1113
00:52:55,809 --> 00:52:57,744
You're the one that
told me to go out with him

1114
00:52:57,877 --> 00:52:59,646
- in the first place.
- Yeah, to hook up, and, like,

1115
00:52:59,746 --> 00:53:03,650
have fun,
and not move in here with him.

1116
00:53:04,384 --> 00:53:07,253
If that's the way you feel, then
why did you even come over here?

1117

1121

There's no record, so...

1257
01:00:17,484 --> 01:00:18,785
Shit.

1258
01:00:18,918 --> 01:00:20,653
So happy I get to
finally meet you in person.

1259
01:00:20,787 --> 01:00:22,522
I'm a big fan of your music.

1260
01:00:22,655 --> 01:00:24,858
Well, I'm a big fan
of anybody who's a big fan.

1261
01:00:25,250 --> 01:00:27,494
[laughs] She's funny.
You're funny.

1262
01:00:28,661 --> 01:00:30,196
Unfortunately... [laughs]

1263
01:00:30,330 --> 01:00:34,134
...this contract
that Brandyn's people sent over,

1264
01:00:34,267 --> 01:00:36,360
it's no laughing matter, kiddo.

1265
01:00:37,337 --> 01:00:38,972
[sighs]
We're not gonna take it on.

1266
01:00:39,105 --> 01:00:40,940
Oh, come on, Hobie.

1267
01:00:41,410 --> 01:00:43,900
There has to be
something you can do.

1268
01:00:43,143 --> 01:00:44,978
This was her first contract.

1269
01:00:45,111 --> 01:00:46,513
Nobody looked at it.

1270
01:00:46,646 --> 01:00:49,490
- Brandyn took advantage.
- I hear you, Kate,

1271
01:00:49,182 --> 01:00:51,551
and what Brandyn did
was ****ed up, all right,

1272
01:00:51,685 --> 01:00:53,219
and I'm sorry for you. But...

1273
01:00:53,386 --> 01:00:57,390
he has a signed contract and
a team of lawyers behind him.

1274
01:00:57,524 --> 01:00:59,392
And so do you.

1275
01:01:01,528 --> 01:01:04,640
The good news,
you have an incredible voice,

1276
01:01:04,230 --> 01:01:05,965
all right, and a unique sound.

1277
01:01:06,660 --> 01:01:09,235
What we need are
some groovy new songs.

1278
01:01:10,403 --> 01:01:11,471
Okay?

1279
01:01:12,372 --> 01:01:13,673
[Maddie on intercom]
Edge is here.

1280
01:01:13,807 --> 01:01:15,508
Oh, thanks, Maddie.

1281
01:01:16,242 --> 01:01:18,780
[sighs] That's my next meeting.

1282
01:01:18,244 --> 01:01:20,800
Well, thank you so much
for meeting with me.

1283
01:01:20,246 --> 01:01:24,170
I will get home and
start writing some new songs.

1284
01:01:24,150 --> 01:01:25,585
HOBIE: That is the attitude.

1285
01:01:25,752 --> 01:01:28,540
- Hobie! My man.
- Ah. Yeah.

1286
01:01:28,555 --> 01:01:30,223
Please don't tell me
you're encouraging

1287
01:01:30,357 --> 01:01:31,858
my assistant to quit her job.

1288
01:01:31,991 --> 01:01:33,760
Hey, we all gotta
chase the dream.

1289
01:01:33,893 --> 01:01:35,729
I need you to
take this heartbreak,

1290
01:01:35,862 --> 01:01:36,930
put it on the page.

1291
01:01:37,630 --> 01:01:38,310
You are so talented.

1292
01:01:38,164 --> 01:01:39,399
HOBIE: I wanna introduce you.

1293
01:01:39,532 --> 01:01:40,767
This is Edgerrin.

1294
01:01:40,900 --> 01:01:42,202
He's here making an album

1295
01:01:42,335 --> 01:01:44,270
about creating the life
you want to live.

1296
01:01:44,437 --> 01:01:46,172
- KATE: Hmm.
- This is Kate and Astor.

1297
01:01:46,272 --> 01:01:49,442
Astor's an incredible singer,
and Kate, well,

1298
01:01:49,576 --> 01:01:51,544
she's one of the toughest
managers in the business.

1299
01:01:51,678 --> 01:01:52,612
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

1300
01:01:52,779 --> 01:01:53,780
Maybe I should hire you.

1301
01:01:53,913 --> 01:01:55,415
Maybe you should.

1302
01:01:55,548 --> 01:01:57,117
- HOBIE: You should.
- Thanks, guys.

1303
01:01:57,283 --> 01:01:58,585
- I'll call you.
- Okay.

1304
01:01:58,718 --> 01:01:59,919
Excuse me.

1305
01:02:00,530 --> 01:02:02,422
You should, uh, exchange.

1306
01:02:06,459 --> 01:02:07,527
Oh.

1307
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:10,300
- Good morning, sleepyhead.
- Hmm.

1308
01:02:10,130 --> 01:02:11,865
Why are you sleeping here?

1309
01:02:12,799 --> 01:02:14,467
I just didn't wanna be alone.

1310
01:02:15,301 --> 01:02:17,537
Why? What'd you think?

1311
01:02:18,304 --> 01:02:21,474
That sometimes I wonder
if I gave you the right tools.

1312
01:02:21,608 --> 01:02:22,876
What does that mean?

1313
01:02:24,310 --> 01:02:27,213
Being an artist
isn't very stable.

1314
01:02:27,313 --> 01:02:29,282
Well, just because
you're broke at 50

1315
01:02:29,416 --> 01:02:30,950
doesn't mean I will be too.

1316
01:02:31,751 --> 01:02:34,320
- Good morning.
- [sighs] I'm sorry, Mom.

1317
01:02:34,454 --> 01:02:35,989
I'm sorry. That was so mean.

1318
01:02:36,122 --> 01:02:38,625
I'm sorry. I'm just--
I'm in a really bad mood.

1319
01:02:38,758 --> 01:02:39,993
It's fine.

1320
01:02:40,660 --> 01:02:41,828
Oh, baby.

1321
01:02:42,495 --> 01:02:46,900
I want you to be happy
and have health insurance.

1322
01:02:48,334 --> 01:02:50,670
We're living in
a post-joy world, Mom.

1323
01:02:50,804 --> 01:02:53,340
Happiness went extinct
with the poor rhinos.

1324
01:02:53,506 --> 01:02:54,908
They're critically endangered.

1325
01:02:55,800 --> 01:02:56,576
Don't ever buy anything
with ivory.

1326
01:02:56,676 --> 01:03:00,480
Well, the way humans behave,
they're screwed.

1327
01:03:00,613 --> 01:03:01,781
We're all screwed.

1328
01:03:02,515 --> 01:03:04,484
Can I please
just go back to bed?

1329
01:03:04,617 --> 01:03:05,752
No.

1330
01:03:05,852 --> 01:03:07,287
You get to get up

1331
01:03:07,420 --> 01:03:11,424
and go get yourself
a nice, joyless job

1332
01:03:11,524 --> 01:03:15,280
to go along with
this sunny disposition.

1333
01:03:15,161 --> 01:03:18,965
Or I can just go home
and go to bed.

1334
01:03:19,833 --> 01:03:21,601
Well, if you can pay your rent.

1335
01:03:21,701 --> 01:03:24,504
- I can't cover you, kiddo.
- Oh, my God.

1336
01:03:24,637 --> 01:03:28,208
Why does everybody keep
calling me "kiddo"? I'm 25.

1337
01:03:28,341 --> 01:03:30,276
Wow, the Velvet Underground.

1338
01:03:30,377 --> 01:03:31,945
Hey, Nooch. Hey, Jim.

1339
01:03:32,450 --> 01:03:33,179
- Whoa.
- What's shaking, kiddo?

1340
01:03:33,313 --> 01:03:34,981
How's the music biz?

1341
01:03:35,115 --> 01:03:36,383
It's gnarly.

1342
01:03:36,549 --> 01:03:38,385
Hey, sorry,
I just realized it's the 6th

1343
01:03:38,518 --> 01:03:40,120
and I haven't paid you rent.

1344
01:03:40,220 --> 01:03:41,388
I'll get it to you tomorrow.
I promise.

1345
01:03:41,554 --> 01:03:43,890
Don't you worry about that, angel.

1346
01:03:44,570 --> 01:03:45,692
I...

1347
01:03:45,825 --> 01:03:49,562
have become a millionaire.

1348
01:03:49,729 --> 01:03:50,830
What the **** is that?

1349
01:03:50,964 --> 01:03:54,501
- A $10,000...
- What?

1350
01:03:54,634 --> 01:03:56,903
- ...bill.
- What is that?

1351
01:03:57,370 --> 01:03:58,405
- [phone ringing]
- Let me see this.

1352
01:03:58,538 --> 01:03:59,339
Let me see.

1353
01:03:59,472 --> 01:04:00,573
Well, Pink Floyd says, "Money."

1354
01:04:00,740 --> 01:04:02,175
NOOCH: Give me
the ****ing thing.

1355
01:04:02,308 --> 01:04:03,843
I think I'll buy
a football team with this.

1356
01:04:03,977 --> 01:04:06,790
- NOOCH: Let me look at it.
- Sorry, this is my manager.

1357
01:04:06,246 --> 01:04:07,580
I got to take this.
But have fun, you guys.

1358
01:04:07,747 --> 01:04:09,416
What the ****, man?
Is this real?

1359
01:04:12,419 --> 01:04:13,753
How is this even real?

1360
01:04:13,887 --> 01:04:16,423
Oh, it's a mind**** for sure.

1361
01:04:17,357 --> 01:04:19,259
I was hesitant to
even bring this to you,

1362
01:04:19,392 --> 01:04:23,329
but the contract is legit,
as is the money.

1363
01:04:23,430 --> 01:04:26,666
- And it's all Europe?
- Yeah, and big venues too.

1364
01:04:29,736 --> 01:04:33,106
[sighs] There are many
obvious reasons to say no,

1365
01:04:33,239 --> 01:04:36,109
and as somebody who cares
about you, I hate this.

1366
01:04:36,276 --> 01:04:37,777
But as your manager,

1367
01:04:37,911 --> 01:04:42,282
I should tell you that
what they're offering is insane

1368
01:04:42,415 --> 01:04:44,617
and unheard of at your level.

1369
01:04:46,753 --> 01:04:48,722
[sighs] Shit. I mean...

1370
01:04:48,855 --> 01:04:52,425
[chuckles] ...that would cover
my rent for, like, five years.

1371
01:04:52,559 --> 01:04:54,227
But he's asking me
to sell my soul.

1372
01:04:54,361 --> 01:04:55,729
Hmm, pretty much.

1373
01:04:56,463 --> 01:04:57,897
And they're willing
to compensate you

1374
01:04:58,310 --> 01:04:59,532
generously for it.

1375
01:05:01,267 --> 01:05:03,403
I don't know.
I don't know, Kate.

1376
01:05:03,536 --> 01:05:05,305
I just-- I don't think
I can do this.

1377
01:05:05,472 --> 01:05:07,730
There has to be
something else, right?

1378
01:05:07,207 --> 01:05:09,309
- Please?
- [laughs]

1379
01:05:10,944 --> 01:05:12,145
You know, I'd never ask you

1380
01:05:12,278 --> 01:05:13,980
to do anything
you don't wanna do.

1381
01:05:14,114 --> 01:05:16,490
And this makes my skin crawl.

1382
01:05:16,149 --> 01:05:19,119
Brandyn is clearly
up to something.

1383
01:05:19,252 --> 01:05:21,788
Plus, it'll be fun
to tell them no.

1384
01:05:21,921 --> 01:05:23,156
[chuckles]

1385
01:05:24,724 --> 01:05:26,259
I have, like...

1386
01:05:26,893 --> 01:05:29,996
$17 to my name. [chuckles]

1387
01:05:30,130 --> 01:05:32,499
Is it so crazy
to say no to six figures?

1388
01:05:32,632 --> 01:05:34,501
I wouldn't spend
the weekend with this guy

1389
01:05:34,634 --> 01:05:36,336
if they offered
a million dollars,

1390
01:05:36,503 --> 01:05:39,172
much less go on tour with him.

1391
01:05:40,600 --> 01:05:41,408
We're gonna find
something better.

1392
01:05:43,243 --> 01:05:44,511
Yep.

1393
01:05:52,686 --> 01:05:53,820
BRANDYN: Astor.

1394
01:05:55,255 --> 01:05:56,523
You down there?

1395
01:05:57,323 --> 01:05:58,825
- What do you want?
- Hey.

1396
01:06:00,930 --> 01:06:01,361
How are ya?

1397
01:06:02,696 --> 01:06:04,864
Okay, I know you're pissed.
Um...

1398
01:06:05,498 --> 01:06:06,866
can I come aboard, please?

1399
01:06:07,834 --> 01:06:09,302
- No.
- Look,

1400
01:06:09,436 --> 01:06:11,104
I just got out of rehab
this morning,

1401
01:06:11,204 --> 01:06:12,505
and, um...

1402
01:06:13,473 --> 01:06:14,974
you're my first stop.

1403
01:06:15,108 --> 01:06:16,376
On your apology world tour?

1404
01:06:16,509 --> 01:06:18,545
[chuckles] Yeah, basically.

1405
01:06:18,678 --> 01:06:21,114
I guess I understand why people
think I'm such an ******* now.

1406
01:06:21,214 --> 01:06:22,515
ASTOR: Yeah, me too.

1407
01:06:23,950 --> 01:06:25,452
Is that why you said no?

1408
01:06:27,530 --> 01:06:29,723
I don't understand how
you could possibly think

1409
01:06:29,856 --> 01:06:32,525
that it would be a good idea
for us to go on tour together.

1410
01:06:32,659 --> 01:06:36,229
Well, because I know that I
can't find a better opening act.

1411
01:06:40,567 --> 01:06:42,902
I want the rights

01:22:41,995 --> 01:22:45,298
- Oh, my God, did they pay?
- The lawyers did their job.

1722
01:22:45,432 --> 01:22:47,667
They paid, plus a late fee.

1723
01:22:47,801 --> 01:22:50,170
- Oh, my gosh!
- [both laugh]

1724
01:22:50,303 --> 01:22:52,439
Thank you so much!

1725
01:22:52,539 --> 01:22:54,174
Well, you deserve it.

1726
01:22:54,307 --> 01:22:57,844
Here's to taking on
shitty men and winning.

1727
01:22:57,977 --> 01:22:59,713
- Yeah!
- Yeah!

1728
01:22:59,879 --> 01:23:02,849
There's a lot of hate
towards you from Brandyn's fans.

1729
01:23:02,982 --> 01:23:04,651
People saying you're pissed
you got dumped,

1730
01:23:04,784 --> 01:23:06,886
that you're using this story
to promote your record.

1731
01:23:07,200 --> 01:23:09,389
Yeah, and it got a lot worse
after your podcast last week.

1732
01:23:09,522 --> 01:23:11,825
[chuckles] Well,
Brandyn's a good friend,

1733
01:23:11,958 --> 01:23:13,360
and the guy I know, well,

1734
01:23:13,493 --> 01:23:15,528
I got a hard time
believing that he's doing

1735
01:23:15,662 --> 01:23:17,630
these things
you're accusing him of.

1736
01:23:17,230 --> 01:23:18,732
Yeah, it's easy
to excuse shitty behavior

1737
01:23:18,865 --> 01:23:20,667
when it's coming from
someone that we like, but

1738
01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:22,669
women's careers don't benefit
from calling out powerful men.

1739
01:23:22,802 --> 01:23:26,706
- It's usually the opposite.
- I'd never heard of you before

1740
01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:29,242
Brandyn took you on his tour, a
tour which you were fired from.

1741
01:23:29,409 --> 01:23:31,711
So it seems naive
to pretend that Brandyn

1742
01:23:31,845 --> 01:23:34,514
didn't give your career
a huge boost.

1743
01:23:34,647 --> 01:23:36,483
People know my name now,
that's true,

1744
01:23:36,583 --> 01:23:38,385
and I will take
some accountability

1745
01:23:38,518 --> 01:23:39,986
for the ****ed-up situation.

1746
01:23:40,860 --> 01:23:43,323
I should have left sooner,
but I was in love.

1747
01:23:44,591 --> 01:23:47,594
Well, I'm glad to hear
you're taking some of the blame.

1748
01:23:47,727 --> 01:23:49,596
It takes two to play the game.

1749
01:23:50,764 --> 01:23:53,199
The thing is, I didn't think
that I was playing the game.

1750
01:23:53,333 --> 01:23:54,768
I thought that I was
in a relationship.

1751
01:23:54,934 --> 01:23:57,604
Oh, come on. I mean,
Brandyn's a rock star,

1752
01:23:57,737 --> 01:24:00,740
and you... I mean,
you seem like a smart cookie.

1753
01:24:00,874 --> 01:24:02,509
You really expect me
to believe that you thought

1754
01:24:02,609 --> 01:24:05,780
he was gonna be
your typical boyfriend?

1755
01:24:05,211 --> 01:24:08,415
Yes, I did, because
that's how he presented himself.

1756
01:24:08,548 --> 01:24:09,916
We let these celebrities
break the rules

1757
01:24:10,500 --> 01:24:11,584
and get away with it
because we want them

1758
01:24:11,718 --> 01:24:14,287
to be bad boys,
and defending their behavior

1759
01:24:14,421 --> 01:24:16,523
is a way of protecting
the rock star fantasy.

1760
01:24:16,623 --> 01:24:19,592
If you object,
then you're a whiny bitch

1761
01:24:19,726 --> 01:24:21,461
who's ruining the party
with your wokeness.

1762
01:24:21,594 --> 01:24:23,129
Okay, okay,
let's not put words in my mouth.

1763
01:24:23,296 --> 01:24:25,310
I never called you
a whiny bitch.

1764
01:24:25,131 --> 01:24:26,566
No, you called me a liar.

1765
01:24:26,700 --> 01:24:28,680
I mean, you're trying to
take something from Brandyn

1766
01:24:28,201 --> 01:24:30,370
that he's worked
his entire life for,

1767
01:24:30,470 --> 01:24:32,405
and in my book,
that's just wrong.

1768
01:24:32,539 --> 01:24:34,740
Well, your book is bro code.

1769
01:24:34,207 --> 01:24:36,109
[chuckles]

1770
01:24:36,242 --> 01:24:37,210
You're funny.

1771
01:24:37,310 --> 01:24:38,878
ASTOR: No, but seriously,

1772
01:24:38,978 --> 01:24:41,214
I don't want Brandyn's name
as an asterisk on my career,

1773
01:24:41,314 --> 01:24:42,882
and I don't expect him to change

1774
01:24:42,982 --> 01:24:45,418
or even acknowledge this,
but if we could start to have

1775
01:24:45,552 --> 01:24:47,153
more conversations
about all the bullshit

1776
01:24:47,287 --> 01:24:48,655
that women have to put up with:

1777
01:24:48,822 --> 01:24:51,791
the abuse, the lack of pay,
the lack of opportunity,

1778
01:24:51,925 --> 01:24:54,327
then I think that would be
a really good place to start.

1779
01:24:54,494 --> 01:24:55,762
I'm here for that,

1780
01:24:55,895 --> 01:24:58,565
but can we cut
the cancel culture shit?

1781
01:24:59,499 --> 01:25:01,601
Astor, thank you
for coming on the show.

1782
01:25:01,735 --> 01:25:05,572
We may not agree on much,
but I admit,

1783
01:25:06,306 --> 01:25:07,674
you got some balls.

1784
01:25:09,750 --> 01:25:10,610
My album's called
The Whisper Network.

1785
01:25:10,744 --> 01:25:12,412
Check it out,
and if you're in LA,

1786
01:25:12,512 --> 01:25:14,447
I am playing Silverlake Lounge
this Saturday.

1787
01:25:14,581 --> 01:25:15,982
HUXLEY: And there you have it,

1788
01:25:16,116 --> 01:25:18,585
for a little
shameless self-promotion.

1789
01:25:18,685 --> 01:25:22,789
Astor Gray,
it has been an experience.

1790
01:25:25,325 --> 01:25:27,260
Check you out, Astor Gray.

1791
01:25:28,261 --> 01:25:29,529
What are you doing here?

1792
01:25:30,330 --> 01:25:32,980
We're playing at
the Forum tomorrow night.

1793
01:25:32,198 --> 01:25:34,834
I saw that you were playing,
so I wanted to come support you.

1794
01:25:36,360 --> 01:25:37,704
Well,
make sure you buy a t-shirt.

1795
01:25:37,871 --> 01:25:39,506
BRANDYN: I will.

1796
01:25:40,874 --> 01:25:43,343
Yeah, I can't tell if
you're happy to see me or not.

1797
01:25:45,145 --> 01:25:46,513
Well...

1798
01:25:46,646 --> 01:25:48,882
considering you threw
my songs out the window

1799
01:25:49,150 --> 01:25:50,550
and then you fired me
from your tour,

1800
01:25:50,717 --> 01:25:52,520
I'm gonna go with not.

1801
01:25:52,552 --> 01:25:53,820
Look at you now.

1802
01:25:53,953 --> 01:25:56,322
Obviously your new songs
are so much better

1803
01:25:56,456 --> 01:25:57,390
than whatever
was in that notebook.

1804
01:25:57,557 --> 01:25:58,692
Guess we'll never know.

1805
01:25:59,192 --> 01:26:01,828
You know, music producers
use unorthodox methods

1806
01:26:01,961 --> 01:26:05,650
of getting great performances
out of artists all the time.

1807
01:26:05,231 --> 01:26:07,567
Phil Spector pulled
a gun on John Lennon.

1808
01:26:07,734 --> 01:26:10,303
He also shot
a woman in the face.

1809
01:26:12,500 --> 01:26:15,750
So, um, what's your plan
with these, um--

1810
01:26:15,241 --> 01:26:17,844
with these interviews?
You going on Hux, The Times?

1811
01:26:17,977 --> 01:26:19,579
I didn't think
you'd stoop so low.

1812
01:26:19,713 --> 01:26:21,881
It's-- it's kind of sad.

1813
01:26:23,249 --> 01:26:24,751
The Times came to us.

1814
01:26:24,918 --> 01:26:26,686
Your reputation
precedes me, dude.

1815
01:26:26,820 --> 01:26:28,655
Music is the only thing
that I care about,

1816
01:26:28,755 --> 01:26:30,690
and you're trying to
take that away from me?

1817
01:26:30,824 --> 01:26:33,760
I mean, I'm sorry if
shit got too real for you.

1818
01:26:33,893 --> 01:26:35,762
Yeah, it's crazy
how being an abusive ****

1819
01:26:35,895 --> 01:26:37,897
just isn't a great
career move anymore.

1820
01:26:38,310 --> 01:26:40,567
Why are you doing this?
I loved you.

1821
01:26:41,340 --> 01:26:42,936
I paid off
your ****ing credit card bills.

1822
01:26:43,690 --> 01:26:46,106
So many of my songs on
my new album are about you.

1823
01:26:46,272 --> 01:26:47,607
And this is my thanks?

1824
01:26:47,774 --> 01:26:49,609
Yeah, I think you're
gonna see your influence

1825
01:26:49,776 --> 01:26:51,444
on my album as well.

1826
01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:56,516
So that's it? After everything?

1827
01:26:56,616 --> 01:26:58,618
I'm not afraid of you, Brandyn.

1828
01:26:58,785 --> 01:27:00,620
And I'm not gonna be quiet.

1829
01:27:00,787 --> 01:27:03,890
I'm gonna tell my story,
and I'm gonna play my music.

1830
01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:06,926
And if you don't like that,
I have a great lawyer now,

1831
01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:08,128
so you can sue me.

1832

ANNOUNCER: How is
everybody feeling tonight?

1833
