1 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:06,560 Speaker 1: Welcome everyone to this Saturday Morning run. It is Saturday, 2 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: September twenty seventh. I'm Amy Roebuck alongside TJ. Holmes, and 3 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: this is our recovery run where we go over the 4 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: ways in which we tried to recover from yet another 5 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: busy news week. It was really NonStop this week, from 6 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel getting back on the air to another politically 7 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: motivated shooting at that ice facility in Dallas. 8 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 2: A government shutdown. 9 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: Is looming next week. Have we had a break from 10 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 1: ominous news? 11 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:39,639 Speaker 2: It seems in the last time. 12 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 3: I was hoping this was going to be it, But 13 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 3: here you go right off the top mention and all 14 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 3: this crap we were trying to get away from. So 15 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 3: it put me out. Was kind of upbeat because we're 16 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 3: excited right now. We're sitting in Arkansas and all this 17 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 3: fun stuff is happening around us, and you just took 18 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 3: me back to a place I was trying to get 19 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 3: away from. So how you want to do this now here? 20 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 2: Sarcasm is noted. 21 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 3: But I was laying on pretty thick you were. 22 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: It was very thick, very thick, like the bacon the 23 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 2: way you like it. 24 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,199 Speaker 1: But it is something worth noting that I just feel 25 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 1: like we need to acknowledge that. And even for those 26 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: of us who have been in the news business for 27 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: three decades and counting, this has seemed particularly heavy, like 28 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: week after week after week, hoping this cycle ends soon 29 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: and we can all get a little lighter. 30 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:23,559 Speaker 2: But there are. 31 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: Always, and we have been trying to point them out 32 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: throughout the week, silver linings, lessons to be learned, ways forward, 33 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,559 Speaker 1: where we can actually learn from some of these difficult times. 34 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: And I think that is the point sometimes at difficult times, 35 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: is that we still have a lot to learn, and 36 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: through all of that, we also still have to try 37 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: to find ways to unwind, to relax, to enjoy, to 38 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: let it go, to not be so in our heads 39 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: and worried about the future, but just truly enjoying the now. 40 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: And we are in Arkansas, babe, We are in a 41 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: can sell babe. 42 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: Yes, we get back once a year. This is you know. 43 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 3: And I probably I do end up adding stress to 44 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 3: the trip here to my alma mater here in northwest 45 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 3: Arkarsas on Fairville, because I only get back and now 46 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 3: we have past three years once a year, and so 47 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 3: I try to take advantage and make myself available and 48 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 3: I want to see as many people as possible and 49 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 3: engagees my journalism department. And that ends up with a 50 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 3: very full schedule because since we've been here, we haven't 51 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: stopped working, and so we have a professional schedule and 52 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 3: then we throw a personal schedule on top of that. 53 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 3: And maybe we've been off a little more than week 54 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 3: at CHEW and that was my fault. 55 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: But you know what, No, but I also look at 56 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: it as I love learning more about you. And part 57 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: of a recovery run is you're still running. You're still active. 58 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: You're just slowing down a bit, you're letting your muscles breathe, 59 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: but you're still active. It's not like you're sitting on 60 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: the couch and rotting, as my daughter likes to call it. 61 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: But you're still moving and you're just moving at a 62 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: slightly different pace and you're more intentional. It's not about 63 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: the sweat, it's not about the speed, It's about just 64 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: the intention. And so I do think I just I 65 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: got to witness this week you back in a classroom. 66 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 2: And being very, very professorial, and it. 67 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: Was actually really inspirational to see you connecting with all 68 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: of these young, bright eyed, bushy tailed stars in their eyes, 69 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: enthusiastic kids. 70 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 3: Who delusional, completely delusional about their futures. 71 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: Yes, but you were really, really great up there with them. 72 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: You were nurturing, you were authentic, you were transparent. In fact, 73 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: you start I love this. You start your sessions with 74 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: these groups with a disclaimer. You want to tell our 75 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: listeners what your disclaimer is. 76 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 3: Well, it's I tell them. Everything I say in this 77 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 3: classroom is off the record. And I do that because 78 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 3: I want to make sure they understand they can ask 79 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 3: me anything. I don't want to think that man if 80 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 3: something I say in here can end up getting out 81 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 3: and again, what am I? I just want to make 82 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 3: sure they understand you can ask me anything, and I 83 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 3: will be honest with you, you all in particular because this 84 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 3: is my university and this is stuff you all are 85 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: asking about and maybe need to know. I don't want 86 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 3: to mince words in here. So that's why I do that, 87 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: and it's worked for me. And look, there are some 88 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 3: reality checks that these kids need to hear. But I 89 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 3: always love engaging I do anytime I come here, you 90 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 3: all need anything. I think there might have been one 91 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: year they. 92 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 2: Said, nah TJ we good was that twenty twenty three, Actually. 93 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 3: It was before that. But other than that, yeah, always 94 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 3: you should always give it back. Sometimes financially you can 95 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 3: write a check, but man, it means a lot to 96 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 3: show up to this place to know I was one 97 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 3: of those kids, and I would love, would have loved 98 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 3: to have access to an alumni that did all the 99 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 3: things I want to do now. So yes, I make 100 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 3: myself available.

That's not what we see that 349 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: we're bombarded with on a lot of social media, at 350 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: least in these past few months. 351 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 2: It feels like it's just all about the. 352 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: State of the world, the of the Union, the state of. 353 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 2: Politics in general. It's nice not to talk about it. 354 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 3: I didn't realize until this moment, but that was the 355 00:16:55,480 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 3: one conversation probably I've had outside of you that wasn't heavy. Right, 356 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 3: everybody I've dealt with outside of our home, there's somebody 357 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 3: wants to mention the shooting in Dallas or something in 358 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 3: the news that was happening to Charlie Kirk or something 359 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 3: in DC. This was the one time we had a 360 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 3: completely issued news, politics free conversation, and I didn't realize 361 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 3: how much I needed that. 362 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, going home is good, is it not? 363 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: Well? When we come back, we'll talk about the one 364 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: thing we did do on our own before we headed 365 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: to Arkansas that also just gave us a moment, a 366 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: moment to step away from all the chaos. Welcome back 367 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: to our Saturday morning recovery run, where we just went 368 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: over our current trip back to TJ's home of Northwest Arkansas. 369 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: But before we headed this way, in the midst of 370 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: all the chaos of the world, we actually we got 371 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: so you know, there's been so much negativity and we've 372 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: been talking about it, not just in what we're seeing 373 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: in politics and all the political violence and the finger pointing, 374 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: but just in the world. And everyone loves to jump 375 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: on a negative bandwagon and to cancel people and cut 376 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: people down and say the worst of the worst. And 377 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: so we were noticing, you know, we love horror movies, 378 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: all of this negativity, crazy negative reviews about a movie 379 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: that we were kind of on the fence about seeing. 380 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: It's called Him and Jordan. 381 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 3: Are we on the fence? 382 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 2: We were on the fence because it. 383 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 3: Didn't look like a traditional horror movie toss. It was 384 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 3: a horror thriller kind of thing. Jordan Peele was behind it, 385 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 3: so we were curious. We'd seen plenty of previews. It 386 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,320 Speaker 3: was intriguing, but it wasn't one on our radar to. 387 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 2: Run out right. 388 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,199 Speaker 1: We love the supernatural, We love you know, like ooh, 389 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: it was scarce. It didn't look like it was going 390 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: to be a jump scare kind of a movie, which 391 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,919 Speaker 1: we typically gravitate towards. But when we started seeing all 392 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: the negative reviews and mean spirited ones, you know. 393 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: We said, we ought to give this a try. 394 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: We ought to see if it's just as bad as 395 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: they say it is, and if it is, okay, still 396 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: don't think you have to be mean about it. But 397 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: we wanted to see it for ourselves, so you and 398 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: I carved out some time. Sabine actually came with us. 399 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and and in fact, we did a whole 400 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,400 Speaker 1: movie review. If you're curious, well, if you really want 401 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: to get into the to the weeds of what we 402 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: saw and what we witnessed and what we experienced it. 403 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: By the way, we highly recommend but please check out 404 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 1: a podcast. 405 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 2: I don't know how many back. 406 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: It is now, but if you scroll down our feed 407 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: you will see our him I think we said F 408 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: the Critics is the title. 409 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 2: You said it, and then I was like, I'm writing it. 410 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: I don't think you thought I was actually going to 411 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: make that the title, but I thought it was really 412 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: catchy F the Critics. So anyway, if you want to 413 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 1: go check out our whole review, you can do that. 414 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: But I wanted to point out that sometimes it's fun 415 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: to challenge what people say. 416 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 2: Something is. 417 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: So, even if it's talking about another person, a friend, 418 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: a relative, whatever, we all tend to gravitate toward that 419 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 1: negative gossip or that negative review, and we want to 420 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: belong so we jump in. 421 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 2: And say yeah. 422 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: But I felt like this is maybe the opportunity. We 423 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 1: went to go see it, and we actually genuinely disagreed 424 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: with the critics, genuinely, but you can see how group 425 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: think happens. You want to belong, you want to be 426 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: a part of it, and suddenly you are influenced. Your 427 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: mind is influenced by what you read from other people, 428 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,199 Speaker 1: and then you think yeah, and you look at it 429 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: through that lens. So I just think it was an 430 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: interesting challenge to take away the lens and to actually 431 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 1: be really aware of it and say I'm not going 432 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: to look through that and judge for myself and that 433 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: movie this week for me was kind of an AHA 434 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: moment and it just became bigger, maybe than even the movie, 435 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: but more about what we're seeing in the world. 436 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 3: I hope that movie does well. I hope folks do 437 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 3: go see and these critics they are I don't know 438 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 3: how they're training, what they're experience. But even Marlon Wayans, 439 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 3: who we have a great affinity for, came out and 440 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 3: addressed the criticism you're talking about, and I thought he 441 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 3: did in a very classy way respect to the credics. 442 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 3: Critics but your opinion is not always everybody's opinion. Just 443 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 3: go see the movie. Check it out. Maybe the movie 444 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 3: is ahead of its time and understanding the art. I 445 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 3: just we see bad movie reviews. I don't know why 446 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 3: folks seem to take this one and just want to 447 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 3: beat it down in a personal way, not taking on 448 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 3: the acting, not taking on even a lot of the 449 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 3: writing or cinematography. It was more of a can't believe 450 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 3: I wasted my time. I can't believe I got on 451 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 3: the train. I can't believe it seemed mean to me, 452 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 3: and it didn't seem critical. 453 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: It was just like I didn't like it, and I'm 454 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: pissed I saw it that. 455 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 3: That doesn't sound like professional critique. I know some people 456 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 3: want to be snarky and maybe how creative and how 457 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: they write. But I didn't walk away from those reviews 458 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 3: necessarily thinking I'm gonna see bad acting or gonna be 459 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 3: horrible writing, or the cinematography is going to be bad. 460 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 3: I walked away thinking, man, who are these jerks talking 461 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 3: about this movie like this? 462 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 2: Yeah? 463 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 3: And this is not and Roby is a very This 464 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 3: is a very good exercise for us, because you're the 465 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 3: one all the time that says, Uh, sometimes when I 466 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 3: see terrible reviews by critics, there's some of my favorite movies. 467 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:22,679 Speaker 2: It's so true because we're. 468 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 3: Looking at it differently. They're looking maybe a critical way. 469 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 3: I want to sit here and enjoy my experience. Thank 470 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 3: you Marlon and crew for what you gave us this week. 471 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 3: I loved that movie genuinely, not just as a contrarian 472 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 3: to these reviews. We are horror movie watchers and fans. 473 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: We liked that movie. 474 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 1: Oh when it streams, I will absolutely watch it again. 475 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: That's how much I liked it. You know. You know 476 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: my friend Joe, when I first met him, we were 477 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: just making small talk and I said to him, I said, 478 00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: what's your favorite movie? I mean, it's just something that 479 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: comes up. And he said anything that scores fifteen percent 480 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: or below on Rotten Tomatoes. And I laughed so hard 481 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: because I get that, you know, the critics don't always 482 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: know everything, and I think that just I'm not trying 483 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: to be cheesy here, but I do. 484 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 2: Think that applies to life. 485 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: And I just felt like some of the moments we 486 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: took out for us this week, including that movie, including 487 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: going and Yeah and having that fun Q and A 488 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: with those students and hearing all of their opinions and 489 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: taking them in and seeing their enthusiasm. I actually felt 490 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: inspired by almost everything we did this week, and we 491 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: weren't setting out to be or to be inspired or 492 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,920 Speaker 1: to get inspired. But I do think if you start 493 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: looking at your downtime and your free time, and if 494 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,239 Speaker 1: you really start analyzing it, if you can man if 495 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: you can look back and reflect and say I learned 496 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: something and I was inspired by something, and I kept 497 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: my heart open to other points of view and I 498 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: didn't jump to conclusions. Just practicing that in our downtime 499 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 1: I think will help us all deal with some of 500 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,479 Speaker 1: well other people's choices to not do so in the 501 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 1: public eye. But I just think we can all be 502 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: more intentional about taking that in and recognizing the opportunities 503 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: to learn and to stay open. 504 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we did. This was not planned. I think 505 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 3: at some point I was either stressed about or it 506 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 3: might have even complained about the itinerary and how busy 507 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 3: things ended up here in Fayeville. And what did we 508 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 3: get is the highlight probably of the week was talking 509 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 3: to those kids. So it was yes, I stress about 510 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 3: the itinerary, the schedule and ripping and running and not 511 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 3: in kind of lost sight of the value and what 512 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 3: I was ultimately supposed to be here and supposed to 513 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 3: be doing. So thank you Arkansas, thank you Robes for 514 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,360 Speaker 3: being complimentary and just being here. 515 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: It's it could be a lot, I you know what, 516 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 1: And I will say this.
