it can go.

Yeah, no, I'm just trying to think of, of any workaround, but I can't find any 'cause they are, they're too big and they're too slow.

Like, if you're in the water, it's a big problem, but if you just stay out of the water, would the-- Would it give it tentacles so that it could grab you and pull you into the water? That would be the only way it could sort of work.

Mm-hmm.

Would also be very scary.

I don't think it would give you tentacles because the blue whale doesn't have tentacles.

Yeah, it's, it's magic.

So, so for someone that's particular about facts like that, it probably, there's probably a few, um, horror movies or sci-fi movies that you read in.

Remember how like a year ago, every millennial ever was all of a sudden universally nostalgic for 2016? It's not that I necessarily have a personal scent memory attached to this smell, but for whatever reason, this perfume evokes that same sort of longingness for me.

If you told me that this was the scent of the sepia filter from the old version of Instagram, I'd be like, "Yeah." When I smell this, I'm suddenly flooded with nostalgia for my own foray into perfumery, including first discovering Marissa Zappas perfumes.

And maybe that's because Maddie's Secret makes me think of some of her earlier creations.

I think of Flaming Creature, for example, for its shared night-blooming jasmine note, and of Annabelle's Birthday Cake for that similar subversive yet obviously gourmand feel.

And Maddie's Secret sits right in the middle of the two.

It's got pieces of that macabre sort of punk feel of Flaming Creature, and also the unbridled, youthful joy of Annabelle's Birthday Cake.

It feels like the month of September: a little edgy, a little collegiate, and this exciting, electric feeling of change in the air.

It's a bit ozonic, like a sort of, like, fog feeling, and then covered in a kind of papery, billowy film of ash.

A few moments later.

Fritz Lang's M.

Right, okay.

I don't know if you've heard of it.

No, I don't know what you're talking about.

I've not heard of it.

What's this? He's the one who made Metropolis.

Isn't that Francis Ford Capella? Oh, he might have done that.

She said this is the first time she's doing a podcast, which is pretty awesome.

Miss Corinne Danino, how are you? I'm

good.

How are you?

I know, I'm so pumped.

Dude, so we met a couple weeks ago, and they were doing these events at the art house, and a lot of local filmmakers or people interested in making film were showing up, and they were showing these movies, and a couple different celebrity guests came through.

Made by the great Sarah Schwab.

Yep.
