Bretman Rock (0:01)

The following podcast is a Dear Media production. Yes, yes, yes, yes. You are already late because we're already taking attendance. Today is period five for science, Science, science. I remember in period one where I was like, princess, you get to pick the next period. And we didn't even do science the next period. But today we are dressed in purple for science. And. Yeah, actually, I wanted to discuss the color, actually, real quick. When you came to America, Princess, I don't know if this is just a Bremen rock extravaganza story. Like, I feel like I do think I'm an original person, and I'm the only one that experienced original experiences sometimes. But I remember when I first moved to America, and I was drawing the rainbow. Maybe it wasn't even a rainbow, but I was looking for the color violet. And I was asking kids around me, I'm like, do you have violet? Violet? And they're like, you mean purple? Like, purple. And I'm like, no, violet. And I was so confused what purple was for so. Well, not for so long. I feel like I accepted that it was purple, but I remembered when I came to America, I was like, it's violet. Why is everyone calling it purple? Who's purple? Did you have that?

Sarah Tiana (1:18)

No, but I thought violet was a different color because violet is, like, purple blue. Like yours.

Bretman Rock (1:24)

No. I was working on something the other day, and if you look at the purple mark marker, it says violet, and then in parentheses, it's purple. Oh, you're thinking about indigo.

Sarah Tiana (1:34)

Oh, indigo.

Bretman Rock (1:35)

Indigo is probably, like, the deeper blue.

Sarah Tiana (1:38)

Like what you're wearing right now. Because we're not, like, wearing the same thing.

Bretman Rock (1:42)

I think we're both. I think I'm wearing violet. You're wearing purple. In my head.

Sarah Tiana (1:46)

Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

Bretman Rock (1:47)

Yeah. I feel like purple is a lighter violet, and violet is like a darker violet. A darker purple. I don't know. Can you guys tell me down below if I'm the only one that had a struggle with violets and purpl purples? Cat, you were about to say something. Hit me.

Kat (2:03)

I thought it was the other way around. I thought violet was, like, the lightest. Oh, I thought about violet, purple, indigo.
