Corbyn. But also it's about having--
And Corbin originally defended it on grounds of free expression.
Does Corbyn represent the falling of the line in terms of bullshit?
Holly Corbett: Yeah, thanks for having us here. We're really excited to be here at Google.
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Amanda Pressner: And-and then as far as, as far as the Lost Girls name which you'll
Holly Corbett: Yeah. I mean we-we feel like the path to adulthood is-is no longer as linear
Holly Corbett: It's funny. I didn't even know Jenn before we took the vacation to Argentina.
Holly Corbett: Amanda Pressner: We were -- Holly Corbett: We were like -- Amanda Pressner: really excited. Yeah.
Holly Corbett: So, yeah I didn't even know Jenn before the trip. But we slept head to
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Lee: Well and if anybody at any point, grab a microphone, just jump up, pull it off the stand or you can stand at it either way if you have a question feel free. Don't be shy.
Holly Corbett: Quiet my mind.
Holly Corbett: Yeah. I-I think the places where we stayed the longest were the places where we had the best memories.
Holly Corbett: I think people approach you more because you're alone 'cause compared to three of us could be kind of intimating. So I think when you travel with other people
Holly Corbett: Well, when we first took off for the trip, Amanda is like our Web guru
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Amanda Pressner: Yeah, I think, I think we've kind of determined that there are few times in your life where maybe it makes more sense to travel. If you are reading the papers
Holly Corbett: Amanda Pressner: Lee: I feel like I need a, need a, need to get out of this office every once in awhile.
Holly Corbett: Lee: We probably all feel like that.
Holly Corbett: Well I think you don't have to do something as drastic as we did and quit
Holly Corbett: they went with it.
Holly Corbett: I-I think that too, we didn't do a lot of journaling. I know when I travel alone I compulsively journal. I'll, I will sit there and write everything down, but because
Holly Corbett: No, three different voices. We kind of played off each other. It's kind of like sometimes I say like a Jodi Picoult novel where it's the same story told from
Holly Corbett: Of course there were.
Holly Corbett: I think -- Lee: Or was it just tensions were high and you were just in a bad mood?
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Amanda Pressner: Yeah. I mean I think the biggest point of tension was I was like the most adamant about going and leaving work and I had the most trouble of the three of
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Amanda Pressner: Yeah.
Holly Corbett: Defintely. I -- Lee: Any stories come to mind?
Holly Corbett: Yeah. I'm trying to think, I think that it was, it was like a lot about, a lot about compromise and just really learning how to compromise. And the beauty is that
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Lee: What do you guys think, or what, I mean I'm sure that's an interesting process to turn I guess any-any literary work into a television series. But how do you see that
Holly Corbett: Australia? Amanda Pressner: Yeah, yeah I be, we think it's Australia. So -- Holly Corbett: It's really cool because Jerry Bruckheimer does like The Amazing Race.
Holly Corbett: around the world. So it'll probably be set in a lot of different countries as opposed to ?
Holly Corbett: It'll be exciting to see, but it'll be very fictionalized so -- Lee: Of course.
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Lee: Naturally.
Holly Corbett: And I think what-what I learned during the trip is that a lot of times I was upset at myself for being restless and actually I think it's a great thing. It's-it's a great
Holly Corbett: My gosh, there were so many amazing places. I think I never knew how beautiful the world was until we got off the plane in New Zealand. It really was like Lord of the
Holly Corbett: And we actually realized we didn't tell you exactly where we went.
Holly Corbett: any remaining budget and came back home.
Holly Corbett: Oh we learned that just because we come back, the same stresses and the same pressures that we left behind were still there, but how we reacted to them was very different.
Holly Corbett: Yes. Amanda Pressner: That's, we wanna scuba dive.
Holly Corbett: Yeah. Lee: So are you guys working on any projects together? What's next for you guys?
Holly Corbett: Yeah, we're actually well we're working on a second book, "How to Get Lost", which is gonna be more of a guide like how to budget, how to save.
Holly Corbett: We just kinda wanna get other lost girls and boys together across the country and kinda networking and-and working together for a healthy goal like a race and to use
Holly Corbett: So -- Lee: The question is how long, how long did it take you to write the book?
Holly Corbett: We didn't write it straight through. We kinda tend to procrastinate. So Amanda Pressner: Holly Corbett: I think we had for the first draft a year to write it and I think we waited
Holly Corbett: Um-hum. Amanda Pressner: So it was probably about eight months if I'm doing the math correctly.
Holly Corbett: Yeah. And we-we, it took us a long time I think 'cause we were used to magazine writing which is very different from memoir writing and none of the three
Holly Corbett: threw 'em away before we got the first draft kind of done.
Holly Corbett: Oh my gosh!!
Holly Corbett: Yeah, I-I-I don't know as far as like magazines going on -- online and-and things like that.
