The Ann Who Came to Dinner

Title: Reverse Psychology Activity description: Welcome to Reverse Psychology, the Frasier Rewatch podcast where we go backwards through every episode of the show. Tonight, we are covering season 11, episode 13, The Anne Who Came to Dinner. Is this the Frasier and It's Pat crossover episode? We'll find out. I'm your host, Curtis Schack. Joining me as always, our resident upside downer, it's Ryan. And I forgot to eat dinner, so I am ready to go, Curtis. Oh my gosh, that sounds horrible. Also with us today is our insurance agent, Bradley Kirkston. I would be such a good insurance agent. My people would love me. You're way too into that. I thought that was going to be the meanest one I've ever used. You are so bad at this. What do you mean you would be a good insurance agent? I will answer that question, but I want to point out, and I think this is what our 12th episode, so it's pretty obvious. I am a very easy person to insult. And for some reason, Curtis is doing such a terrible job at it. And to answer your question, Ryan, I don't like how well you know yourself, that you know you're easy to insult. Again, one of the weirdest things that I'm actually really good at is I'm a very self-aware person. I don't change that, but I'm very self-aware. So I would be a good, talk about being self-aware, I'd be a good insurance salesman because I care about people. So I'd be getting them the best deals all the time. I mean, I would screw over a lot of people because I have to be good at my job, but I would still be a great insurance agent. So many contradictions in that one sentence. Yeah, I don't know about any of that. I'd be a great insurance agent because I'd be giving people deals that is not the quality of a good insurance agent. And then you go on to say that you would screw a lot of people over because you care about them. Like, wow. I'd be giving people over that from what we've learned today. That is a good insurance agent. They screw people. It's the caring about people part that doesn't quite add up. Yeah, but even the way you said it. Do you mean you can trick people into thinking you care about them? Because that could work. Yeah, I mean, I think I'd just be a little... He says yes. I'd be a little bit of everything to everyone. That's not an insurance agent. Well, again... Do you think that they're actually like Jake from State Farm or whatever? Oh, God. I think... Today's commercials even still haven't, but I think that... Yeah, they're all basketball now, though. Oh, that's true. What we'll do is I'll spend a year as an insurance agent. And we're going to talk about it for a full year. And then next year, I'll come back and we'll do a retrospect of my year as an insurance agent. I mean... For like the 40th episode. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But we won't talk about it from now until that episode. I don't know what we would possibly talk about. So how was your first day as insurance, Brad? Why do you sound so Jewish when you said that? Have you been hanging out with me too much? That's how I always ask people how their first day was. That's the same tone I use for anyone's first day. Okay. That's fair. That's fair. Is it? Sure.
