As we said, you know, 280 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,679 Speaker 2: we're going through a cozy lives. Everybody is looking for 281 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 2: more ways to make money, and I think that if 282 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: you can find avenues to make money that are also 283 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 2: based in passion and things that you enjoy, that's like, 284 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 2: for example, like I said, I've always had a passion 285 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 2: for music and live music especially, and I always loved 286 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 2: writing about it when I was a teenager, and I'd 287 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: write like blogs and stuff that's cool, yeah Tumbler and 288 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 2: MySpace bulletins, and then as I got older, eventually turned 289 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: that into like a side hustle doing music journalism and 290 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 2: interviewing artists or reviewing albums and gigs and stuff like that, 291 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 2: which was great and a great way to make some 292 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: money on the side. But for me, the money was 293 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 2: I guess, the cherry on top, and it was more 294 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 2: so getting the opportunity to listen to albums before they 295 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 2: were released, or going to a show. 296 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 3: And having my name on the door and knowing that 297 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 3: I was going. 298 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 2: To review one of my favorite artists, or getting to 299 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: speak with someone who I really admired about a piece 300 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: of work that they produced, and the money was sort 301 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 2: of just a nice silver lining. 302 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 3: So I think that that is great if. 303 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 2: You can make money from your hobby and you want to. However, 304 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: we've also been existing in a gig economy for the 305 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: last what ten fifteen years, and I think a lot 306 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 2: of us feel the pressure to turn our hobbies into 307 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: side hustles. 308 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 3: And I think that's the distinction. 309 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 2: That we want to make here, that you don't have 310 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: to make money out of your hobbies. 311 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 3: It's only if you want to. 312 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 2: And I think that if there's ever an instance where 313 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: you're feeling pressure from other people to make money from 314 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 2: your hobby, or you start doing it and then you 315 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: realize that you're not having fun with your hobby bringing 316 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: you joy, Yeah, and that is statistically speaking that our 317 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 2: studies at show once you start earning money from a hobby, 318 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 2: you start enjoying that hobby a little bit less or 319 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 2: a lot a bit less.

You have 382 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 3: to say it that way, but it's quite grating, I 383 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 3: realized listening back to the episodes. 384 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 2: But alas, let's move on to our fourth and final 385 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 2: hobby that you need want to advance your knowledge. 386 00:18:55,359 --> 00:19:00,479 Speaker 1: Smutty pants, muddy girls.

Smart. 388 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 2: I love getting smart, but learning doesn't have to finish 389 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 2: when you wrap up UNI and high school. And I 390 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 2: think for a lot of people, that's where the learning 391 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 2: journey does sort of end. Obviously, you know we're learning 392 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 2: life lessons all the time and picking up new things 393 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 2: as you go into adulthood. But I'm talking about intentional 394 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 2: learning and actually putting time aside to learn something that 395 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 2: you want. 396 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 3: To learn, because I think that it is more. 397 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 2: Rewarding perhaps than what we did experience in school or UNI, 398 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 2: because you actually have some autonomy you. 399 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 3: Had to choose. How cool is that? Yeah? 400 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 2: And I actually saw an article by National Geographic. Maybe 401 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 2: they's the smartiest pain maybe they skewed the results because 402 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,959 Speaker 2: they're like, you know how you'll do this, pick up 403 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: the mag But adults are apparently better learners because we 404 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 2: have better self regulation. 405 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,719 Speaker 3: And we're intent when we want to learn something. 406 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 2: So I know the saying can't teach an old dog 407 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 2: new tricks, but yeah, because you're actually learning things that 408 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 2: you want to and not just how to play the recorder, 409 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 2: but if you want to learn how to do that, 410 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 2: you do that, you do that, get that hot cross bun. 411 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 2: And not only is it rewarding, I think when you 412 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 2: feel yourself learning new things and picking up new skills, 413 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,959 Speaker 2: but it can also help maintain and improve our cognitive function, 414 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 2: which apparently usually begins to plateau after the age of 415 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 2: thirty or forty. 416 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, you going over there now. I mean, I 417 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 3: think the results speak for itself. 418 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,959 Speaker 2: It's not looking good that it's time to pick up 419 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 2: a new hobby.

I would love to just invite the 495 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: ones that I feel have formed a genuine connection with me, 496 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: but I don't want to offend the rest of the group. 497 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 1: I find it tricky because this isn't a classic fizzle 498 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: out friendship when there are other girls involved. 499 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 3: That's a really tough one. 500 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, my initial reaction is if they're not bad people, 501 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: and they're nice and you still enjoy spending time with them, 502 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any harm with throwing the invite 503 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 2: out there. If they don't want to come because they 504 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 2: also feel like the friendship is sort of not giving 505 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 2: you both what you need, then they probably won't show up, 506 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 2: and if they do, then nobody's feelings are getting hurt. 507 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: But then at the same time, I'm like, I understand, 508 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 2: it's a housewarming, it's an intimate affair, and. 509 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 3: You probably only want the people. 510 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 2: That you really like their But with people like this 511 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 2: that it's not like oh, this is a friend who 512 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 2: you know is toxic, or someone I've had a falling 513 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 2: out with, or someone who I just don't like. That 514 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 2: like makes it a little bit more black and white, 515 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: whereas this a. 516 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 3: Bit of a gray area. 517 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: My perspective on stuff like this is because I feel 518 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: like I do a lot of hosting within like our friendships. 519 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: I kind of always look at it as like a 520 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 1: more the merrier situation. 521 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 2: And I think I think you end up spending time 522 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 2: with the people that you want to spend time with anyway. 523 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 3: Like I think it takes away. 524 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: From how much you'll enjoy yourself. I also think healthy 525 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: friendships can spend quality time within those friendships, so you 526 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 1: don't always have to hang out as a group. You 527 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: can hang out with more intimate groups within friendship groups, 528 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: like you don't always have to do the massive thing. 529 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 3: And that's fine, but I just for this kind of. 530 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: Thing, I always go with the more the merrier because, 531 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: as Sau said, if they're not toxic friends, if they're 532 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 1: not going to take away from how much you enjoy 533 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: the evening and then not like a drama or like 534 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 1: a bit of a stain on the night, I think 535 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: it's better to extend the invitation. 536 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 3: They might come, they might not. And that's the thing 537 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 3: because in saying that you don't have to. 538 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 2: If you just want to invite your four friends, just 539 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 2: do that. There is absolutely we're not saying no, you 540 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 2: have to. That's personally just what we do in that situation. 541 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 2: But I also think if. 542 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 1: You want to have an intimate night with your closer 543 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: friends that is so fun, you are within every single 544 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: right to do that. I would probably just not post 545 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: about it because that you do run the risk of 546 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: people's feelings being hurt that they weren't invited. 547 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,360 Speaker 3: If you do want to, you also. 548 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: Need to understand that that may set a standard for 549 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: that to also be you in the future. They might 550 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: hang out and you might not be invited. And if 551 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: that's something that you are okay with, then that is gorgeous. 552 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 3: That is fine. 553 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: But that might be something that then sets that standard 554 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: in the future that they hang out and you don't 555 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: get invited, and that's something that you have to be comfortable. 556 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 3: And okay with. Yeah, I agree. 557 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 1: And if that's not something that you're comfortable and okay with, 558 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: then I would just invite everyone. 559 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 3: It's a nice thing to do. Yeah, I'm just like 560 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 3: a whatever, more the merrier. That's all have fun to 561 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 3: as long as you byo, yeah, BYO.
