TRANSCRIPTTammi's Takeover - Patreon Bonus Episode 3: A *little* uncomfortable

(INTRO MUSIC)

Scene B3:1

TAMMI

Hello and welcome to Tammi’s Takeover – our extra-special show exclusive to Patreon supporters of Y2K! My name is Tammi, and here’s also Olivia...

OLIVIA

Yes, hello!

TAMMI

So, today we are going to be looking at some of the things that have been happening in the podcast so far. I’ll be playing some clips, and you can tell us a little bit about your thoughts and reactions. All right?

OLIVIA

Oh! All right. That makes me a little nervous.

TAMMI

You’ll be fine. You ready for the first clip?

OLIVIA

(jokingly) No..?

TAMMI

(laughs) I’m playing it anyway! (OLIVIA laughs)

(Clip from episode 3)

OLIVIA

All right. That was pretty emotional. You know, I thought there would be only my Mum and her friend on these files, but other people seem to creep in as well. I haven’t decided yet if I like that or not. Will let you know.

TAMMI

I was listening through the early episodes, and I think this, from episode three, is where you really seemed to grasp the fact that this was not just going to be about Kat and Jess.

OLIVIA

Yeah. That was strange, listening back... I thought it would be pretty mundane, you know. Just two people telling each other their minor daily happenings...

TAMMI

That’s not how it ended up at all!

OLIVIA

No! So many other people turned up in the voicemails, and so many things started happening.

TAMMI

Yes – their lives were certainly eventful. But your life’s been pretty eventful too.

OLIVIA

And yours! We both moved to Auckland after all... And... In the beginning I thought the podcast wouldn’t be about me at all. I would just be the objective narrator of it all, not sharing anything significant about my life.

TAMMI

(smiles) That didn’t really work, did it?

OLIVIA

No! And I think it has to do with the voicemails, somehow, they were so personal and dramatic and everything that I couldn’t stay distanced.

TAMMI

Makes sense. And that sort of leads us to the second clip, from episode twelve:

(Clip from episode 12)

OLIVIA

In a way it’s like they are characters to me at this point. Even though I know they were actual people and of course still are actual people now, twenty years later, this world of theirs, at this time... it’s all *very* different from the people I know. We’re more the same age, and they seem much easier to relate to. I suppose... I always thought of my parents as... not old... but static. Like I’m the kid so I am doing all this growing and changing and they are done with all that. But lately they... are changing things, and changing (hesitates) as people and doing things they never used to do and... well, it freaks me out. They’re supposed to be stable, dammit! (sigh) I know that’s not fair. Or reasonable. (small laugh) But maybe listening to all these voicemails and hear...
