Asterios: He exposed me to this giant fanbase and I will always be grateful to him and thankful to him for that.
Dick: Mhm
Asterios: It doesn't mean that if I see bullshit happening I can't call it out, like friendship doesn't mean just nodding your head and agreeing with everything that somebody does.
Sean: That's true
Asterios: I mean, I mean that's the thing. If you're really somebody's friend, you will tell them the truth. I wish he could have just been more honest with why he was ending the show. I wish he could have just said "yeah look, this guy had sex with my ex-girlfriend, he pick- he picked up my ex at a wedding right in front of me, and I don't like that that happened, and it's over", 'cause that's what I would have done.
Dick: He's ashamed of it. You don't say things you're ashamed of, 'cause you know, in your heart...
Asterios: That it's wrong!
Dick: ...that it's wrong to feel that way, 'cause it's psychotic and obsessive and controlling, that's why. So you don't say it, so you twist your mind into pretzels.
Asterios: So you've gotta find another reason why this guy's the bad guy.
Dick: Yup
Asterios: You gotta say that he's a rape apologist, that he stole money from me, that he's lying to you, he's gotta come up with a hashtag 'Dick lies'. Because the thing is if he had just gone out and said 'yea I don't like that this guy hooked up with my girlfriend' then it makes you look weak, and also it goes against your ethos which is 'that women should be able to do what they want'.
Dick: Yeah
Asterios: So the thing is ya find another reason, or in the case of that video you find 4 reasons why this guy's a bad guy as opposed to just telling the truth. And look...
Dick: aight, go ahead
Asterios: ...and look like 5 years from now we might be at a wedding, we might all be friends, we might all be kickin' back drinks and we, like, time heals everything. *record scratch* and then he had to disavow his own book

Really liked finished TDS theme, thought of it again for the first time it came out. When I listened to dead in tokyo it had grown on me in the months since I last listened and I had money this time so i bought it. hgalen
