If they're looking for 110 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 4: for money as the main driver, so, which a lot 111 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 4: of them are, but there is as you see with basketball, 112 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 4: there's a full scope of valuation of you know, school, education. 113 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: Experience, and money. 114 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 4: And so we're really excited about going from zero to 115 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 4: as you saw that the eight million dollars. 116 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and above is what we're going for. 117 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 2: So so well, you know, oftentimes the MAC and I'm 118 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 2: a Mac guy. 119 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: We were just talking about this. I love the MAC. 120 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,559 Speaker 2: You played football, you were a walk on, a great 121 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 2: high school player up outside of Columbus, and a walk 122 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: on at Miami and played there for four years. 123 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious. 124 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 2: The one thing I've always admired about the Mid American 125 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 2: Conference it stays in its lane. Okay, that's fine, and 126 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 2: it's been very successful that conference. Maybe not making the 127 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 2: money that the big boys are, but that's fine. You 128 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 2: stay in your lane. Great regional conference rivalries, et cetera, 129 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: et cetera. But if you're going to be in that lane, 130 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: it seems to me what you have done and what 131 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 2: others continue to do at Miami is for you guys 132 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 2: to be the leader of that lane. 133 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: Is that fair? Yeah? No, I think it's fair. 134 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 4: I mean, we were late to the party, but we decide, hey, 135 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 4: we're not just going to be the leader. 136 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: We want to be the leader of the group of six. 137 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 4: And so we want to position ourselves for that next 138 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 4: iteration of college athletics, which is we believe is going 139 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 4: to be the haves and the have nots. And so 140 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 4: whether if the Mid American Conference and the schools within 141 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 4: our in our conference want to step up and do 142 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 4: the same, great, If not, we're going to position ourselves 143 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 4: to make sure the program is going to be around 144 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 4: and at the highest level. 145 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 2: And the ROI for this year the basketball games, I mean, 146 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 2: let's be honest about it. That place for the last 147 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: ten fifteen years been a morgue and now all of 148 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: a sudden, I mean, you can't get a ticket to 149 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: a game. So I mean, at least when you're presenting it, 150 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: let's say to the administration at Miami, the president and 151 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 2: people on the board, you can say to them, hey, look, 152 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 2: this stuff's pretty important and we can make some money 153 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: off athletics around here, where maybe in the last few 154 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 2: years we haven't. 155 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, we're. 156 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 4: Actually I was with I was telling you before we 157 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 4: got on with President Crawford and our ad last night, 158 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 4: and that was the big conversation. It is circling around 159 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 4: the data that's starting to pour in. So we've had 160 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 4: over three hundred more people that are you know, have 161 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 4: committed to come to Miami out of state based off 162 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 4: of year to day. Yeah, and it's just not even 163 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 4: the classes closed. So our applications are out of like 164 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 4: a ten X right now.

But 373 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 2: then you get into just the United States and that's 374 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 2: what we're focused on today. And you've been doing your homework. 375 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 2: That's why you were a four point zero student back 376 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 2: in your days in high school at e Xavier University. 377 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 2: But you know, I think the first thing a lot 378 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 2: of people think of, oh, man, you know in your twenties, right, 379 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 2: you're free, right, you're young, you got your whole life, 380 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 2: you're healthy, right, you gotta be happy, right, happier than 381 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 2: some dude my age. 382 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: That's not the case, No. 383 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 7: Not at all. No, you think, oh, yeah, this is 384 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 7: the great. Life is great, no worries, wild nights, three parties. 385 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 8: To go to, and but that's not true. 386 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 7: No, And then you think of Tom r thirties and forties. 387 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 7: But then you're just mired in your careers, taking off, 388 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 7: your spouse's careers, taking off. You got those worries, you're parenting, 389 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 7: you're trying to keep up. 390 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 8: The stress overload is. 391 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 7: Pretty dramatic during that time. And you know, last night 392 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 7: I was working more on today's show, and that's probably 393 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 7: the worst time. So not to make people feel worse 394 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 7: about where they are right now, but if you're feeling stress, 395 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 7: you know, realize you've got this is sort of the 396 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 7: peak of everything. You got all four burners on high, 397 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 7: your health, your parenting, your relationships, your career, and it's 398 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 7: hard to keep all four burners on high. So the crescendo, 399 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 7: Tama'll let you announce that well. 400 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: Well, I'm gonna let you do it. 401 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 2: But the point being if you just kind of picture, 402 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 2: and for people who aren't even math people or whatever 403 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 2: it might be, just picture a U curve, and basically 404 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 2: that's where the United States has been for a long 405 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 2: time in terms of its level of happiness. So, if 406 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 2: you started in the upper left hand corner, you're talking 407 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 2: about children in their teenage years or pre teenage years. 408 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 2: And now as you start to move forward in age 409 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 2: and move up in age, now comes the U on 410 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 2: a downward spiral. Twenties forties, mid forties, fifty hitting the 411 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 2: low point. But then you see the curve start to 412 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: move upward, Julie to when we get older, into our 413 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 2: sixties and seventies. Surprisingly, maybe for many, that is where 414 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 2: America is at its happiest. 415 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's kind of exciting to think about nothing but. 416 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 8: Good news ahead for all of us. 417 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 7: And then the real question is, during all this research, 418 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 7: when they did study all these generations, what they wanted 419 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 7: to find out. 420 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 8: Why our older people have her? 421 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 7: What is the magic behind all this? And just if 422 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 7: you stop them, think, I always think about my mom. 423 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 7: She's eighty seven, and she is so wonderful to be around. 424 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 7: She doesn't sweat the small stuff. You know, nothing's really 425 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 7: dramatic over anymore, Like things can be really good or 426 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,080 Speaker 7: really bad, but she knows they'll be really good again. 427 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 8: So she's not into you know, being right. She's just 428 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 8: been to being kind. 429 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 7: And then the other thing that she does, and what 430 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 7: they said in the studies too, is older people prioritize 431 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 7: their relationship. Ye. Yes, they spend more time with people 432 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 7: they love, even if it's dinner at four point thirty, 433 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 7: it's our early bird special. They really value conversation. Like 434 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 7: Mom likes when we call her. She doesn't like those texts. 435 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 7: She doesn't like social media. She didn't like any of 436 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 7: that and avoids it. She likes a good conversation. It's 437 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 7: fun to be with her. And same with older people. 438 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 7: They're they like talking to people face to face. They call, 439 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 7: they don't text, and so you can tell they really 440 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 7: value those deeper conversations. And the other thing they do 441 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 7: is they really focus on I don't know, like meaning 442 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 7: rather than achievement. 443 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 8: You know, young. 444 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 7: Adults, it's all about promotion status, how productive. 445 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 8: I am older? 446 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 7: You know, older people they're really looking about, you know, 447 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 7: how much contribution can I give to the world. What 448 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 7: can I what's the next kind thing I used today? 449 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 7: And they also, you know, when they get out of 450 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 7: bed in the morning, it's like it doesn't matter if 451 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 7: they're going to have a good day or a bad day. 452 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 8: They get a day, you know, you. 453 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: Know it's so true. 454 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 2: But there were a couple of things I want to 455 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 2: break down because I think there are some areas where 456 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 2: those in their forties or their fifties, and look, they're 457 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 2: playing zone defense on so many different levels rather than 458 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 2: just man demand, which is what you're specifically talking about 459 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 2: when it comes to your mom and a phone call 460 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 2: with just Julie or your sister or whoever it might 461 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 2: be right. And they are things that maybe younger adults 462 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 2: can learn from, the things that make the older crowd healthier. 463 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,360 Speaker 2: One of the things I found, you know, my late 464 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 2: great friend and friend of yours as well, Eddie Shepherd, 465 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 2: used to say to me all the time, the most 466 00:22:56,160 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 2: difficult word in the English language is no, saying no. 467 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 2: And where am I getting at on this? One of 468 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 2: the things older people do is they really narrow their 469 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 2: social circle, you know, rather than trying to be everything 470 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 2: to everybody, they engage mainly in the most satisfying relationships 471 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 2: and just weeding some of others out. It's not being mean, 472 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 2: but it's just having really good relationships with the people 473 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 2: you really want them with, rather than worrying about some 474 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 2: you know, sort of whatever relationship with people that at 475 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 2: the end of the day are not going to be 476 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: a part of your life moving forward. 477 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 7: You know, I love this conversation, Tom, and we could 478 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 7: talk forever on it if you drill it down even more. 479 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 7: I think that when you're in your twenties, you're so 480 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 7: worried about what people think of you. 481 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 8: So you've got thousands. 482 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 7: Of people and you're trying to keep everyone happy, and 483 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 7: you're so concerned about it. And then in your forties, 484 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 7: I really don't care what anyone thinks of you, but 485 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 7: you're still, you know, trying to keep up. In your seventies, 486 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 7: you finally realize that nobody was thinking about you at all. 487 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 8: So it's much easier. 488 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 7: Than to say no when you mean no and yes 489 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 7: when you mean yes, and not. 490 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 8: Be so worried about what other people think. 491 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 7: It's now this wisdom to put everything in perspective and 492 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 7: know it's you know, what I've learned from years of 493 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 7: living on Earth is that this is what really matters. 494 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 7: These relationships really matter, and the people that I want 495 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 7: to be around, the people care for me and I 496 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 7: care for them, and I only have so much energy 497 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 7: for this amount. So I love that conversation, Tom, and 498 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 7: I want to be more like that person, to be, 499 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 7: you know, to just you know, no matter what happens, 500 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 7: life can be amazing. The life can be awful, but 501 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 7: to always know life can be an amazing And again, 502 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 7: and I think. 503 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 8: A Futureilla town, it's. 504 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 7: The close relationship you have and the people that can 505 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 7: always pull you up when you're knocked on your knees. 506 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 8: Well, then that's a good feeling. Yeah. 507 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 2: And they have a term for that in these studies. 508 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 2: It's called the age related positivity effect. And that is 509 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 2: a tendency, you know, the younger crowd you talk about, 510 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 2: especially with social media, you know, and you're looking at 511 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 2: the negative of the parties. Maybe you didn't get invited to, right, 512 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 2: and so you're looking at the negative as. 513 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: Opposed to. 514 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 2: You might be home on a Friday night with only 515 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 2: one friend or two friends watching a movie, and you're 516 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 2: not enjoying the positive part of that particular moment in time. 517 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 2: Because you're so wrapped up with oh geez, why wasn't 518 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 2: I invited to this? And apparently in these studies that 519 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 2: you talked about out of Harvard, that is a big deal. 520 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 8: It's huge. 521 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 7: Have you ever experienced this, Like when you were younger, 522 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 7: you could be at a party for like four hundred people, 523 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 7: yet you feel kind of alone. 524 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,239 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's that's why I was going with that. So 525 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 8: it's when you're with like one. 526 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 7: Or two people, it just feels so much more comfortable 527 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 7: and you really have those conversations you really want to do. 528 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 7: You know, they're deeperther wiser, they're more fun, they're funny. 529 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 7: You know, older people have a wonderful sense of humor. 530 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 7: I was at the kitchen table, you know where most 531 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 7: things happen at the kitchen table, and with my mom 532 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 7: and I mean, we were laughing so hard and I can't. 533 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 8: Tell you why we were laughing, And it's just. 534 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 7: That feeling of you know, you're you're just laughing and 535 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 7: you're enjoying yourself so much. And that doesn't come from huge, 536 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 7: huge groups of people. It really comes down to that 537 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 7: one on one or two on one are being surrounded 538 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 7: by the people that care about you and you care. 539 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 2: About you know, the other part of that whole thing. 540 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 2: And I think it's exactly with what you're talking about. 541 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 2: But in that fifties crowd, uh, and I'm just exiting 542 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 2: that crowd. 543 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: But in that crowd, wait. 544 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 8: A minute, well for a minute, you exited that. 545 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I bo't race that crowd. 546 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, they are a law and they're not even in 547 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 2: the rear view mirror anymore. But thank you for suggesting 548 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 2: either one out. Yes, yes, absolutely, thanks for pointing that out. 549 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 2: But the point I'm making it is that you know 550 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 2: so much and this doesn't Some people are going to 551 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 2: take this as being morbid, but it's not. You said 552 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 2: a little while ago that a lot of people in 553 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 2: their sixties, seventies, eighties or older, you know, they're just 554 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 2: thankful when they open their legs work and they can 555 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 2: actually get out of bed and walk into the restroom 556 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 2: to brush their teeth or whatever it might be, right, 557 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 2: I mean, they are happy and content with that. They 558 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 2: they are comfortable with their mortality. And I think so 559 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 2: many people in these studies show that people in their fifties, 560 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 2: they're really uptight about their mortality. It's kind of staring 561 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 2: them in the face for the first time and they 562 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 2: don't know how to handle it, whereas once you get 563 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 2: beyond that. And this was a big part in that 564 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 2: study that you reached out to me about that in somehow, 565 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: some way, if we could just get comfortable that. You know, 566 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 2: we can't control that, so try to be more comfortable 567 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 2: with that. 568 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 7: That's what you're saying is everyone's trying to live longer 569 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 7: instead of being more grateful for every day. You know, 570 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 7: it's sort of like this search. I gotta look younger, 571 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 7: I gotta be younger, I gotta do young things. I'm 572 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 7: going to eat the super powered food and you know, 573 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 7: add more years to my life when I really. 574 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 8: Would like to add more life to my years. Approach. 575 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 2: Well, now that is a great line. That is a 576 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 2: great I mean that in a nutshell, that is what 577 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 2: it is. This has been great stuff today, Julie.
