 Welcome to Church of the Chair, where we celebrate all the things we do well seated. I'm your host, E, and today I'm with my buddy, Chad Lutzky, who still hasn't emailed me the list of things he would like in the description of these videos, so people can go buy his books or check out his podcasts or whatever, check him out on social media. Say hi, Chad! Chad Lutzky.com, it's all there. All right, there we go. I will add that to the, upload that to all of the descriptions. There's this thing called Google E, if you wanna find out, you know. And spell his name right. It's like Lutz has the chips and K-E at the end. Kills E, just don't remember that. Lutz kills E, the potato chips are killing E. Lutz, so I'm in a mood today, dude. I'm in a mood, anyways. Is there really a potato chip called Lutz? Yeah, yeah, Lutz potato chips. Or Lutz says in George and Kathy, who owned 112 Ocean Avenue? No, it's us. Dude, I am 100% wrong. It is UTZ, so don't remember that. That's not a good way to remember it. It's us, UTZ. I don't know where the L came from, man. I have no idea. I don't know if some of their packaging looks like an L in front of it or not. Anyways, top of the morning to you. Derek, how you doing? Hello, Jake. Hey, Buggle. All right, so what we're doing today is some, I don't know how much I'll be writing. I don't know how much Chad will be writing, but we're doing, we're sharing his screen and we are doing live revisions. So he's gonna go back and probably read the sections. Have you read what I wrote yesterday yet? No, sir. Okay, so he'll be... I figured I'd do it as I went. Yeah, and I am basically going to, until, unless something pops into my head that I want to jump into, like I did the time before last, I'm gonna let him go and I might just commentate what he's doing. Hey, Brad, how you doing? We are 3,179 words in. Nice. That is good. I think 4,000, between three and 4,000 word chapters would probably suit this very, very well. About 10 pages. Good morning, Hailey. I'm munching scrambled eggs and bacon with toast as I listen, awesome. Do you ever partake of the English, the traditional English breakfast, Hailey, with the beans and the grilled tomatoes and all that lovely stuff, do you ever partake? I don't know how prevalent it is there. Is it like an old person thing or is it something y'all still do? Tonight at 8 Eastern, I will be hanging out with Broad Practor and Jay over at Paper Cuts with Hamelin Byrd. Ooh. So anybody is online and has nothing to do. Let me check him out. Yeah, Hamelin Byrd is a great author. I've not read. I think you'd like him, man. He's one of the people who asked for a blurb a year or two ago and I could tell right away why he asked me. Like he, you know, like I get requests a lot and it's like, you know, I don't like Supernatural. You know, I'm reading this thing, I'm like, you know, but this guy, I was like, okay, he knows I'm gonna blurb this. This is right on my alley. Awesome. You don't like grilled tomatoes or mushrooms or black pudding. My youngest would agree with you about all that. So in fact, we were watching a competitive eater, like the UK's biggest, like traditional breakfast over there. It's like five pounds of food and Chris just sat there watching it and he goes, why would they ruin breakfast with tomatoes and mushrooms? The sausage looked good though. And I'm like, that's not sausage, my friend. That is black pudding. Ifa is trying to steal my bacon, well, give that baby some bacon. All right. Well, and if Chad, not Chad, Chad, if Chad sounds different, it's because he's having mic issues. So he's using his Apple mic now instead of his, what's your Mcfluggy? His Yeti, it's a Yeti, isn't it? Looks just like mine, but mine's red. Yes, it is a Yeti. Yeah. The best pod. Or wait, I guess so, a blue Yeti, yeah. Yeah, a blue Yeti, yes, yeah. I just call mine a Yeti, but it's a blue Yeti. I always forget they're called blue Yetis. Like the brand, I believe is blue. Yeah. And then the Macon model is, yeah. What the? Boggle, miss, sorry, go ahead, Chad. I was just saying I'm on highlighting all the stuff that I... Yeah, I've read it all, if you're fine. I didn't have any changes. Miss Groin DVD Reddit. And Miss Groin DVD Reddit to you too, Boggle. Love you. I can't even begin to like puzzle that one out. Miss Groin... Usually the M means it's a, is... The M usually means someone meant to hit space. I'm trying to puzzle out what the fuck Boggle just said. So is going maybe? I don't know, it's whatever. Boggle, you broke me, you broke me, hun. You broke me. Dumpster pizza. I'm here in my section. Okay. Let's see if, yeah, I thought so. I'm not sure I understand this one sentence here. We're collecting empty peanut butter jars like they're fabric eggs. Oh, Fabergé eggs, fabric eggs. I don't know if the joke lands, but that was the intention. Fabergé eggs and you're calling fabric eggs. Okay. I guess we can put in something to clarify or we can get rid of it completely. I thought you meant those old, in the 70s, they had this brand of pantyhose called legs that were popular. Oh yeah, my two cheese. Yeah, I remember those, yeah. Yeah. My sisters loved that brand for whatever reason. So we had those little fucking eggs all around the house. Heck yeah, man. I used to take them to the beach and build little sand castles with them. Yeah, that's smart. Wish I would have thought about that. And we could put something in there. If you wanna keep the joke, if you think it's funny, we could put something in there with like an inner thought from Shane about how he thinks she means Fabergé eggs. But only reason he knows that is because of a documentary that he watched or something like that. Or one of his teachers talked about it. I don't know. But I'm not, I'm not, I'm not. My confusion, I guess, is in like, they don't want pizza because they've had too much, but then this says that they were having too much peanut butter too. Like they have all of these. I mean, I get it. Like they'd be tired of both. That's how I was looking at it. Like, you know, they're tired of peanut butter. They're tired of, but they're out of, they're out of the peanut butter, they're out. They don't want pizza. I don't know. But that, I mean, whatever you think for a fix, it's fine with me. Once again, I'm not in love with anything. But yes, I can see how that could be confusing. Yes. I had such a struggle yesterday typing sync. Like I'm even finding stuff today. Like I meant sync by the, it says by the sick. It's supposed to be sync. I had a puzzle over that one for a minute before I realized what the fuck I meant. I couldn't write it. I wrote wink. I wrote inks. I wrote sick. I don't know why that word gave me so many problems yesterday. Facial vocabulary. That's a new one. That is a new one. I don't know if it works or not, but I like it. I mean, it's automatically, you know exactly what you're talking about. E, I think my plan is going to work. I made a new document, the dimensions of the A1 poster and 800 PPI. I'm gonna try a fixed blurriness now. Hell yeah. I've been drinking. I'm almost done with my coffee. Of course I need some water. Sorry I was driving. Didn't have reading glasses on, but I was just trying to say mushrooms are best. Wow. Miss growing DVD Reddit means mushrooms are best. Hey dude. How do you feel about the next chapter being called Coke and a Smile? Coke and a Smile? Yeah. That's pretty good. Open up with Uncle Travis. You know, being happy. All that shit. What he normally isn't, like you said, his facial vocabulary. That shit was great. The more I think about it, the more I like it. This is going really well. Coke and a Smile, I love that. Thanks, Mikey. I have good ideas sometimes. Anyways, I'm gonna go ahead and dig my break. When I get back, I think I'd, I think I got something I wanna write for opening chapter two. You miss. Go and mute. Hey, Mayor. Sorry. I'm nasty. The stuff's spraying out right over the waistband. I'm just showing. You're nasty fucker. Oh, Lord, what happened? What's that, what? I don't know, something, sorry. I was in the middle of writing and it jumped down like three pages and had me in the middle of the notes, making sure I didn't fuck anything up. That was weird as hell. Holy cow. Did you see my paintings I did? Yeah, I replied to you. The two you shared with me? I don't know, you sent me two pictures. Yeah. I've, I've, I've written almost another three pages. Jeez, dude. I didn't even, I wasn't even paying attention, brother, I just, it just fucking happened. Hey, Bamp, how you doing? Sorry if I missed you. Alright, but good, I'm trying to watch more of Eve and I'm working seven days a week. Oof, man, that's rough. Oh, come on. You're just not bothering me if you're worried about that. It drives me nuts. I got you. I love dogs, but I don't like barking dogs, especially when it's just probably just either someone walking by or a squirrel. It's like, come on, guys. You're not used to this yet? Yeah, Hailey does awesome art work. Alright, nearly, nearly four pages. You got more to do on this, but I'm kind of interested in what you're doing, so I wanted to come up here and see. I'd stop highlighting because lots of little adding things, changing things, stuff like that, and there's no, unless it's a full paragraph, it's nothing but new stuff I haven't. Yeah, dude, like I told you yesterday or the day before, I'm not even gonna remember what I wrote, so it doesn't matter what you change. I'm perfectly alright with you just going with it. I'm gonna put a big gap between where I am and where I have not been. Okay. That's what I usually do anyway when I'm doing this kind of thing. Stick max. Stein max? Stein max, is that what it is? Okay. I took out, you had Lewis, but it didn't flow right? Because Lewis is. Yeah, it was kind of like a placeholder anyways. I just didn't want to call it Panda Fuckers Grocery and Liquor. Yeah, like I said, I'm not married is the word that I've been trying to say this whole stream. I'm not married to anything, so. Right, well hopefully you'll like what we've got here. This is a chunky first chat. This is gonna be really easy to do. We're gonna hit 65 pretty fucking easily, I think. Doing it, especially doing it this way. And we're gonna have a pretty clean final, pretty clean, rough draft, too. The way we're both going back over each other. It looks more like Kurt Cameron, poor kid. Trying to take us up 80, popular 80s things that I don't know, kid might be into. If you could take us some better. No dude, Kurt Cameron is perfect. I see exactly what you're talking about. Michael J. Fox versus Kurt Cameron, 100%. I see that very clearly. There's definitely gonna be people I don't even know who the fuck this is, but that's all right. They can go Google it. Most people know Kurt Cameron for his religious stuff nowadays. Yeah. And even know that he was a child star. Yeah, you've removed a lot of little things. I have noticed you're making it punchier and I like that. Oh yeah, ramen, ramen. All right, you're gonna have to change a bunch of those chip things. I forgot about him getting ramen. That's fine, yeah, I already did. Oh, and you changed it to a woman cashier? Well, that's only because I had started establishing this character and hadn't read far enough to see that you had made this big, big, tall guy. Gotcha. I don't know if you noticed up above, but I had him instead of going to the first store because they're banned from it. Ah, okay, yeah. And then I, yeah, you may have missed that. I talked about why they go to the second store and I described the two owners who do it and how. So there might be some references you don't get when it comes to the description of the glasses that they wear. Gotcha. Okay. I call them thumb fix. Okay. Because I say that... Not every day, sorry, sorry, Chad. Not every day, Pam. Yeah, I'll just go by. Once we get the first chapter to where we want it, I'll go back and read the whole thing. Okay. I'll probably do a pass off stream also because I mean, either gonna need a break or we need to go pretty soon. I really only need a break. So, but awful scars. Ninja in my ass. I have a coconut smell. Shut the fuck up. What do you want to do? You want me to take a break or do you want to finish up soon? I think I'm gonna... I think I'll call it so I can eat lunch. And we were talking about maybe... We're talking about since people are hanging out, writing themselves, and I don't think anyone is interested in every single word done live. Trying to catch up because you write so much faster than I do. Trying to catch up off stream or I can do this live stream on my own too and just not make it a big deal. Just have it going. Yeah, I'm fine with either. If you want to do it off screen or if you want to do your own live stream, perfectly fine. But that would just be for, like I said, to catch up to you. I mean, I'm only at, you know, crap hitting the fan at the convenience store. I have no idea where you're at because I haven't looked at it yet, you know. Yeah, I've done the reveal of the cocaine and everything. Yeah, I'm deep into, like I said, I'm four, chapter two is now already four pages long, roughly. So, and who knows how much of that you're gonna layer and change. Also, let me answer Vamp real quick. Vamp, if you're still here, yes, I'm gonna be making T-shirts. I'm hoping to have them done before Halloween because she made so many images for me last Halloween. I'm hoping to get those up and ready in September at some point in time. Anyways, go ahead, Chad. And this will give me a chance to catch up to where I can write some stuff to, you know, some other chapters too. But yeah, I'm just such a, I mean, this works out good. I like the way this works out too because I'm such a clean first draft kind of guy. I mean, not like, I mean, I still do more drafts. Oh, I know what you mean. And me, I don't go back. This is the most rewriting I've done on a work in progress in probably a fucking decade. I've never done this much work. But then again, I mean, it's almost like, I mean, layering with you is just all about, you know, just like building the scene more. I don't know, just adding to what you already have is so much fucking easier than having to do it all on my own and just going back and fixing it. It's not killing my momentum at all. Also, I'm excited just fuck to get to the carnival. So that's another thing that's like pushing me, pushing me, pushing me. I want that urgency to carry over to the reader that they won't even know, you know, where we're going with this maybe because of the cover has something carnival themed. But anyways, I want that urgency to carry over. And so far it is, it's moving beautifully. I love it. Well, I did the math and we have written over 2,000 words today. So awesome. That's cool. In two hours, that's not bad. No, not bad at all. And like you were saying, if we were doing this without the stream, it'd be going even faster. But the process is definitely helping people out. I keep getting comments about how much of an inspiration it is and how motivational it is and all that stuff. So I'm glad people are getting what they need from it, especially those who are getting their own work done while we're working. Yeah, that's awesome. I love that. Love this community. Anyways, all right. Thanks everybody for joining us. There were quite a few of you in here. I think we were up to like eight or nine at one point in time. Thanks for joining us. This is good. Chad, anything else you wanna say before we go? Sam asked about my channel. Assuming they mean my YouTube channel, I think it's just Chad Lutsky. I maybe type in YouTube, I think. I think that's what it's called. You're welcome, Viking. I'm glad you got so much done. Let's see here, I am going to, we can go tomorrow. And I gotta cry off for Sunday because it's game night. What I'm expecting is basically the schedule that we had this week where we'll take Wednesdays and Sundays off just to get myself some kind of, some time away from this damn computer. Because I got videos to do too. So I'm tentatively, unless something comes up guys, expect at least three to four streams a week, probably take Wednesday and Sunday off in any other days that we need to. But we're gonna do this as much as possible because we're both the type to just pound away at a project until it's done. Yeah, we wanna get it done. Yeah, exactly. And collabs already take, they can take twice as long because you're waiting on the other person to write. This is beautiful. I have never done this before with anybody I've written with, where we have just gone back and forth in a Google Docs. Hey Alec, how you doing in a Google Doc? And I wanna work this way all the time. It's nice to be writing something and for the word count to be doubling at the same time that you're writing something because the other person is layering. It just goes by so much faster. I'm doing great Alec, I ain't seen you in a hot minute. Google Docs, they are great, they are. And I've written live that way before on Twitter. I've sent people over there to watch me write. And I haven't used it in so long because for the longest time, it had such horrible lag even after I upgraded to my new internet, my fiber. And I don't have that problem now. It is doing some weird shit. Like sometimes I'll click on something and then I'll start typing and it'll take me down to the end of the page or the end of the document completely. That was weird, it happened at least three times this round. And I don't know if it's because both of us are working on the same document or if I hit some kind of control something, I don't know, but anyways. All right guys, so we're gonna head off. So tomorrow, 9 a.m. as we've been doing. If anything comes up, if anything changes for next week, we'll let you know. But until next time, I'll hail the chair.
