3:31Listen to Math and Magic on the iHard Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Tony, this is interesting. Charlie XCX says she wants to just quit. She would quit all of it, right? Yeah. Music, songwriting, everything for a new career path. What's she saying? Why? Yeah, so she was on the Feeding Starving Celebrities series. It's basically like a chaotic cooking show with a casual celebrity interview. It's on YouTube. And Charlie just played herself in the moment, which was a mockumentary about her experience during the brat release. So during this episode, Charlie was asked, do you want to act more? To which Charlie replied, yes, are you kidding? I want to quit music, babe, and act. So Charlie is 33 and actually read this stat on International Women's Day that the average female has a career pivot at 39. And the average female entrepreneur starts at 42. So I found interesting that after all the success that Charlie has had as a musician, she wants to quit and fully move into acting. Well, I mean, I've heard some people get burnt out on one type of thing, it's still the

4:31same kind of career. It's still the entertainment show of his career, performance career. So but a lot of people get burnt out on something, they go do something else, they say they're going to retire, they quit, and they come back to it. So maybe she needs a breather. Well, I think brat was like so successful, you know, like it was just like a movement in and of itself. And I think sometimes with music, it can be more personal. And acting, you can kind of like escape and you're something else not all on you. That's fun. So I feel like that's kind of maybe where it's coming from with her. Well, if I were to walk away, just not do what I've been doing for so long or not do it, you know, I would work at the farmer's market. I would have a kiosk at the farmer's market. I think those are the nicest people on the planet. You're on air with Ryan C. This message brought to you by Pizza Hut because the $10 any is back.
