Been in a weird place recently. For a long time, but recently too.

I used to be in a weird place. I still am, but I used to be too.

I’ve never eaten fugu, but I can understand the concept. In the same vein, I’ve never piloted a space shuttle, and yet I can still speak authoritatively to some of its most obvious aspects. One need not always experience a thing directly to be able to make reasonable inferences about that thing.
I think the specific thing they're pointing out is how they say "recently" even though they're always in a weird place.
