Speaker 1: night out, on the town, your workplace, or to get
Speaker 1: your groceries. Hey guys, on this week's the Group Chat,
Speaker 1: we're talking about Valentine's Day and you may have heard
Speaker 1: have a bit of a hot take. Fans of the
Speaker 1: Group Chat will know how you feel about this holiday too.
Speaker 1: This has come up before Caroline's hot take on Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1: And then we are coming up with our own holidays
Speaker 1: that are Panther themed j X clown Day. I actually
Speaker 1: saw some people celebrating ex Clown Day on the social media,
Speaker 1: so this was not an original thought. Wow, great, now
Speaker 1: we're stealing. And then we're just gonna throw out other
Speaker 1: holidays that we think should be on the calendar. We
Speaker 1: have all of this and so much more on this
Speaker 1: week's the Group Chat. You've been added to the Group
Speaker 1: Chat with your friends Caroline, Can, Max Senson and Will Brian.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Group Chat. I'm Caroline, Can Max, Will
Speaker 1: the whole cruise in here. We've been We've been diligently
Speaker 1: working on research for this show, I mean really for
Speaker 1: for minutes, minutes, multiple minutes more than one. It does,
Speaker 1: then I mean buckle up everyone, and you know how
Speaker 1: you should also buckle up and where you should also
Speaker 1: buckle up lift. You should do that in a lift.
Speaker 1: And we love lift because lift pays our bills. So
Speaker 1: use lift to get well anywhere it's a night out
Speaker 1: on the town, or if you need to go get
Speaker 1: groceries and I don't know, apparently if you have a
Speaker 1: couple of drinks before you go to the grocery store
Speaker 1: and you you don't need to be driving, just call lift.
Speaker 1: You get the Pink Lift app, link your credit card
Speaker 1: and take your first ride today. That's how you pay bills. Boys,
Speaker 1: that was well done. I was wondering how you're gonna
Speaker 1: just smoothly transition that in. That was all right. We're
Speaker 1: also going to smoothly transition into this show um and
Speaker 1: topic that we're going to talk about. And we're gonna
Speaker 1: name this one hashtag holidays, because there's a holiday coming
Speaker 1: up at the end of this week that fans of
Speaker 1: the group chat will know how you feel about this
Speaker 1: holiday too. This has come up before Caroline's hot take
Speaker 1: on Valentine's Day, but this time we actually get to
Speaker 1: do it in real time. This is actually Valentine's Day,
Speaker 1: Valentine's most week. I don't think Valentine's to Day is
Speaker 1: a real holiday. This also goes into the same feeling
Speaker 1: of Halloween. It's just not real. It's not a real holiday.
Speaker 1: It's a fun day. It is a fun day of celebration,
Speaker 1: or it's a terrible day of celebration. If you're single
Speaker 1: on this day, you hate Valentine's Day. But I think Halloween,
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, they're just they're not federal holidays.
Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest difference for me. You don't
Speaker 1: get a day off for this. You actually suffer because
Speaker 1: if you celebrate this day, your normal work days could be.
Speaker 1: You're not getting like a Monday off off or a
Speaker 1: Friday off. If sometimes you get treats in the office.
Speaker 1: Are you going to bring a streets Sure, yeah, we
Speaker 1: do it. Monday. We did Monday. I'll be here Monday,
Speaker 1: I'll be here the later part of the week. We
Speaker 1: bring Monday. Yeah, you're you're gonna be busy celebrating Valentine's Day.
Speaker 1: That way, it won't be here later in the week.
Speaker 1: Exactly puts on this front about how it doesn't I
Speaker 1: have to take so many days off to us to celebrate. No,
Speaker 1: that's not the case. But did you were you guys
Speaker 1: um in elementary school? Did you do the like b min?
Speaker 1: I was just going to ask this question. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was definitely remember that now, like the Valentine's and like
Speaker 1: everybody had like, you know, like a little thing where
Speaker 1: everyone would go in and drop the Valentine's in and
Speaker 1: it was cute, like everybody got one. You know. It
Speaker 1: was that time where it was not like, you know,
Speaker 1: you were too young for it to really mean anything
Speaker 1: more than getting like a piece of candy from the
Speaker 1: same But I think that's boys girls hotel. Do tell so?
Speaker 1: I I remember. I think I was in third grade
Speaker 1: and it was Valentine's and I'm feeling him out at home.
Speaker 1: And you know how like the Valentine's Day packs, they
Speaker 1: came with like five different variations of the same Like
Speaker 1: if it's rocket Power, you're gonna have five different Rocket Powers.
Speaker 1: I thought, so five different rocket Power characters and each
Speaker 1: one's going to say something slightly different. I remember not
Speaker 1: wanting anyone else in the class to get this one,
Speaker 1: except for like I wanted my crush to get the
Speaker 1: one that was like the best, and I didn't want
Speaker 1: to use the other versions of that specific card, and
Speaker 1: my mom I asked her to buy two packs, and
Speaker 1: she was like, why do we need to buy two packs?
Speaker 1: Because you'll have enough for your class with this one.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, And I didn't want to tell her that. Well,
Speaker 1: I only want my crush to get this one. Do
Speaker 1: you remember the name of the crush um? I think
Speaker 1: it was Zach, but don't tell Zach. Wow. I think
Speaker 1: it was Zach. But I also could be thinking that
Speaker 1: because like Zach Morris from sayd by the Bell, I
Speaker 1: could be thinking that's who I had a crush on,
Speaker 1: because lord knows I did. But now I just I
Speaker 1: remember that it was a very big deal. My crush
Speaker 1: had to get this one, so he knew. But the
Speaker 1: best part is what is he going to compare Valentine's
Speaker 1: He's going to figure out Like at that time, I
Speaker 1: was Nancy Caroline. Nancy Caroline gave me this one. Should
Speaker 1: everybody call you Nancy back Mancy Caine the Southern Thing? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Nancy Caroline, I know you do. Well. Do you have
Speaker 1: any Valentine's Day stories from your childhood. No, I mean
Speaker 1: I went to a smaller private school, so there weren't
Speaker 1: as many kids in the class. Valentine's dnay, No, you
Speaker 1: just got less of it, less quantity, you know, if
Speaker 1: you're only getting four Valentines. I thought it would be
Speaker 1: like quality or quantity. Quality still like the you know,
Speaker 1: like the dumb dumb you know, like taped to the
Speaker 1: little piece of card the name. How bad are those hearts?
Speaker 1: By the way, though, that's they're terrible chalk? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: like the sweet tart. I still I like those. I
Speaker 1: like them better than the candy corn get leaf they are,
Speaker 1: They're better than candy corn. He's muted for just a
Speaker 1: little bit. He gets to come back in a little bit.
Speaker 1: That was terrible. Yeah, what just you're wrong? All right,
Speaker 1: we're moving on. Well, we'll bring him back for this
Speaker 1: next segment. We thought it would be fun to come
Speaker 1: up with our own hashtag holidays. So if you look
Speaker 1: at the calendar coming up the in of February going
Speaker 1: into March, I didn't even look past March because it
Speaker 1: was absurd. There are only a handful of days that
Speaker 1: do not have a fake holiday on it. I mean,
Speaker 1: you've all seen it National Pizza Day a couple of
Speaker 1: days ago. It was at an official thing, but it
Speaker 1: to take over social media. Like staining your broom up.
Speaker 1: You can do that every single day, so that it
Speaker 1: was not just one day. NASA said, gravitational pull yesterday
Speaker 1: was what allowed the room to stay end up, right,
Speaker 1: That's what's so, that's what Twitter told me. I know.
Speaker 1: So we're just going to make up our own because
Speaker 1: apparently you can do that now. So we're making up
Speaker 1: our own hashtag holidays all has to do with panther themes,
Speaker 1: because you know we're the Panthers. So let's go with um.
Speaker 1: Any of you want to go first, what is your
Speaker 1: panthers hashtag holiday? I just want to start off first
Speaker 1: with a non panther holiday that I think you appreciated, Caroline.
Speaker 1: Did you know, like February fifteenth is Singles Awareness Day,
Speaker 1: which I which, what's that one? I can appreciate? I
Speaker 1: think that's but I already I think Valentine's Day is
Speaker 1: single Awareness. Yeah, you should, you should be February. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's the same. I mean when I was single, I
Speaker 1: was certainly aware of it. On valentin I guess that's
Speaker 1: I guess that's that's not maybe the like formal day
Speaker 1: of celebration, but it's the technically begins on that day
Speaker 1: and then you're honored commemorating it the following day. That
Speaker 1: why why not have two useless holidays instead of one? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's true. Okay, so this is funny and we're not
Speaker 1: I know we're quite there to our topic yet, but um,
Speaker 1: Parks and I had the discussion of are we celebrating
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day? We will be together, but we we planned
Speaker 1: this trip well before, Like we didn't even think about
Speaker 1: it being round. It is not a Valentine's Day trip.
Speaker 1: We're going down for like wedding planning, which I can
Speaker 1: assure you is not, um, what you want to do
Speaker 1: for Valentine's Day, because I want to pull my hair
Speaker 1: out for many things about playing I love, I love
Speaker 1: I love planning away, just not all the time. So
Speaker 1: we're going down and getting some wedding planning things done.
Speaker 1: So we we planned this trip and then it was like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this is Valentine's Day, babe, we should
Speaker 1: sell it. We should celebrate this with each other's would
Speaker 1: be fun, which goes against all of my morals. And
Speaker 1: he said, so are we doing gifts? And I was like, oh, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think we are. I think I think we're going
Speaker 1: to do gifts. And don't worry you guys out there
Speaker 1: that are wanting to point out to me that I
Speaker 1: don't think it's a real holiday and now I'm asking
Speaker 1: for gifts. Works has done that for you, so you
Speaker 1: don't need to tell me about that. Parks has made
Speaker 1: it very clear that I can't change the rules when
Speaker 1: they benefit me, and you know, change them when they
Speaker 1: don't benefit me. But I did I change the rules.
Speaker 1: We're going to celebrate Valentine's Day with a small gift.
Speaker 1: What is a small gift monetary wise? How much? Like?
Speaker 1: How much would you spend if it was a small gift.
Speaker 1: I want to crowdsource this because I need some on
Speaker 1: this one too. I'm putting this out there. Anyone listening,
Speaker 1: please just like and that's a good number. That's a
Speaker 1: small gift. I think that's a good that's that's pretty good.
Speaker 1: Or it's a small gift for doing what. You don't
Speaker 1: have to say it here? Yes she does? She God,
Speaker 1: why do you tell people that? Okay, what are you
Speaker 1: getting her? I'll probably just do like a nice bouquet
Speaker 1: of flowers, and then it's like a done deal and
Speaker 1: flowers seem nicer than their price tag. I suppose I've
Speaker 1: heard that some women don't like flowers. Mine does, but
Speaker 1: mind does. Good. I love flowers, but I do I
Speaker 1: understand like I like flowers just because I don't know
Speaker 1: the flowers is a gift thing. I'm like, thank you,
Speaker 1: but these die. I want my gift to stick around, right,
Speaker 1: So just chew on that one. Matt chewed on it. Yeah, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: we'll get back to this. Cheered on those hearts. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: we just let you out a time out. Okay, So
Speaker 1: we are going to get back to the topic at hand,
Speaker 1: this classic group chat moment right there. Let's get back
Speaker 1: hashtag panther holidays or panther hashtag holidays. What is what
Speaker 1: is a panther one? We'll start us off. I liked
Speaker 1: I liked your first suggestion you had January. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: like that one. X clown Day. It's a good one.
Speaker 1: I actually saw some people celebrating ex clown Day on
Speaker 1: the social media, so this was not an original thought. Wow,
Speaker 1: right now we're stealing. Okay, yeah, yeah, we're stealing. I
Speaker 1: would just like to say I made producer Matt laugh
Speaker 1: with that one, which and it was a genuine laugh. Yeah,
Speaker 1: yes it was you laugh on the record laugh, which
Speaker 1: is my mic was off. You don't know what I did.
Speaker 1: So the question is how do we celebrate National x
Speaker 1: clown Day. You just have to do it in the street.
Speaker 1: You have to do you have to find a partner
Speaker 1: and do. Yeah, you may have to wear a Steve
Speaker 1: Smith jersey and a clown mask, okay as part of
Speaker 1: the I think that would be pretty epic if you
Speaker 1: worry clown mask and then no one yeah, and and
Speaker 1: those that wouldn't understand what they can being mean and
Speaker 1: those that got it would really get it. I like
Speaker 1: that one. So you have to wear Steve Smith jersey
Speaker 1: on January tent with a clown mask. Yes, cloud yep, Okay,
Speaker 1: what's yours? My first one will be especially because the
Speaker 1: personal nature of this h May nine, five nine, I
Speaker 1: think should be a national looke keekly Day, especially just
Speaker 1: with him retiring now, where everyone's gonna be looking for
Speaker 1: ways we could make this. I feel like this could
Speaker 1: actually become a day and it's a we were actually
Speaker 1: just looking at this video the NFL network put out
Speaker 1: of like the best player to wear every number zero
Speaker 1: to wherever, and uh fifty nine was Luke Dick Buckets.
Speaker 1: I think was the other one who came in second place,
Speaker 1: But right now I think most people would say he's
Speaker 1: got the top spot to everywhere fifty nine in the NFL.
Speaker 1: So yeah, maybe five nine can become Lukeiklyda. It is
Speaker 1: also my birthday, so talk about kind amazing we are.
Speaker 1: We're really cooking with gas there. So that's uh, that's
Speaker 1: my Panthers holiday. Suggest that's a good one. I So
Speaker 1: what made me think that this would be a good
Speaker 1: idea was this particular holiday that I came up with
Speaker 1: while sitting at my desk because of a an Instagram
Speaker 1: post by Christian McCaffrey. In case you missed this post,
Speaker 1: just go look this is so. I think this is
Speaker 1: very off brand for Christian. I was not expecting a
Speaker 1: post like this, but I think it could It could
Speaker 1: be a fun way to celebrate Christian McCaffrey. So I
Speaker 1: would like to present Um, I don't care what day
Speaker 1: this is on. I guess we could do February second,
Speaker 1: we could do February twenty second, we could do any
Speaker 1: any of the month, maybe every two of the month
Speaker 1: for the year is National cmc D and the Instagram
Speaker 1: or social media challenges. You have to have a photo
Speaker 1: of a supermodel feeding you a spicy chicken sandwich. That's it.
Speaker 1: You have no idea what I'm talking about, Please go
Speaker 1: to Christian McCaffrey's instagram. I would like to call your
Speaker 1: attention to an amazing post that was meant. Do you
Speaker 1: know about this? Have you seen this? God? Well, it's
Speaker 1: gonna pull it up right now. It's it's amazing. The caption.
Speaker 1: He definitely had some help on the caption. I feel
Speaker 1: like he's pretty witty when it comes to everyone he's
Speaker 1: got I mean, he's witty, but this, this is just
Speaker 1: this is different for him. Yeah, I'm gonna read that caption.
Speaker 1: So it's a photo you may have seen it. It's
Speaker 1: a photo of his girlfriend, Olivia Colpo beautiful feeding him
Speaker 1: Chick fil A an extra spicy deluxe, feeding me a sandwich.
Speaker 1: And then it's got like the emoji of like the
Speaker 1: face that's really hot and sweating, and then I do
Speaker 1: love this former pantherson or Ryan Khalil chiming in I
Speaker 1: don't get it, So I think that should that should
Speaker 1: definitely be a holiday where you're did you have to
Speaker 1: try and get someone to feed you supermodel? Would you win?
Speaker 1: But someone to feed you a spicy chicken? Say? Which
Speaker 1: that needs to be the photo? It's it's phenomenal. That's
Speaker 1: pretty great. Just go take a look. We'll even tell
Speaker 1: you to like it that his engagement goes up, so
Speaker 1: he's not mad at us for talking about that. We'll
Speaker 1: just give that double tap good, give it a go,
Speaker 1: old double tap, a double taper, all right? Do you
Speaker 1: have any other days? I liked? What other one did
Speaker 1: I have? November? The day the Panthers hosted the Patriots
Speaker 1: on Monday Night football and twenty three team National Ice
Speaker 1: up Day. Yeah, yeah, you just gotta, you know, get
Speaker 1: some ice packs, just get you know, hamstrings might be
Speaker 1: tight on that day. It's just a day to make
Speaker 1: sure you're you're ice and up. Yeah, making sure the
Speaker 1: bodies right, that's a good one. You have aptly keep leaves,
Speaker 1: gotta make sure he's ice and up on that. We
Speaker 1: still go on Panthers. Um, yeah, I mean, Max had
Speaker 1: a lot of these. I do like the I do
Speaker 1: like the I mean we created last year, and I
Speaker 1: would be curious if we continue to do it. But
Speaker 1: May one five one is keep Pounding Day und Day.
Speaker 1: That's like an actual thing. That's an actual thing, and
Speaker 1: you know, it was really it was like a really
Speaker 1: cool thing last year, you know, going to twenty five
Speaker 1: different cities in North and South Carolina doing service projects.
Speaker 1: So I'll be curious and see what we do this year.
Speaker 1: That's a good one, alright, one that I have. This
Speaker 1: is a very random day for this, but it's coming up.
Speaker 1: Actually March seven, three seven Tank Day. If a football
Speaker 1: team record is three and seven, every single fan in
Speaker 1: that fan base is saying, take tank the season. We
Speaker 1: need a hired draft pick. I tried to. I flirted
Speaker 1: around with some other numbers, but I think three and
Speaker 1: seven is where every single fan might be saying, let's
Speaker 1: just tank because even if you win out, you're not
Speaker 1: in double digit wins your middle of the pack. Does
Speaker 1: that matter? Would you rather have the middle of the
Speaker 1: pack pick or do you want that top ten pick
Speaker 1: if you just take out for the rest of the season.
Speaker 1: So I would like an offseason holiday for the NFL
Speaker 1: on March seventh to be just interesting that you chose
Speaker 1: three and seven because the Carolina Panthers were three eight
Speaker 1: and one when a lot of this that discussion was happening,
Speaker 1: but the division was so bad that they made the playoffs.
Speaker 1: Well that's what we were talking about too. I I
Speaker 1: went to the room on this one and was asking,
Speaker 1: what is that number? What is the record when the
Speaker 1: fan based to do that this? We landed on this,
Speaker 1: But our discussion was the NFC South in general makes
Speaker 1: this a very difficult conversation because I mean, the Panthers
Speaker 1: this past year, we're in it until there is I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, there was a chance for them to be right.
Speaker 1: I mean that was another one where I mean it
Speaker 1: can happen. Seeing every years if you can get to
Speaker 1: eight and eight, it feels like there's gonna be one
Speaker 1: division where eight and eight or nine instead, which is crazy.
Speaker 1: But I'm going three seven because that's where the fan
Speaker 1: base normally starts to. Just alright, tank, let's just they
Speaker 1: They start doing mock drafts this week of the season,
Speaker 1: and for those of you that say you don't stop it,
Speaker 1: I got some of those mock drafts around this time.
Speaker 1: Weeked ten, I started to get some mock drafts from people.
Speaker 1: So I'm when March seventh is Tank Day, you can
Speaker 1: wear a tank top of your favorite team. Okay, I
Speaker 1: like that day. And that's when the weather kind of
Speaker 1: starts to heat up a little bit, so tank, you know,
Speaker 1: it could be fun. I like what you're doing there,
Speaker 1: Tank Day. All right, we want to go to the
Speaker 1: swapping of holidays. Now, this is what Will has been
Speaker 1: waiting on. Will. Will is going to shine in this
Speaker 1: moment because he came up with this idea and his
Speaker 1: example to get this idea to stick on the group
Speaker 1: chat today, I thought was phenomenal. Right, and I have
Speaker 1: I have first, second, and third round picks for my draft.
Speaker 1: Like I'm I'm rolling deep here. I don't think we
Speaker 1: need to make picks your draft. All right, here, here's
Speaker 1: what it is. Here's what it is. You will draft
Speaker 1: a holiday that is not a real federal holiday, and
Speaker 1: then you have to switch that out with a real
Speaker 1: holiday so it doesn't have to be federal. But I
Speaker 1: just went looked at the federal list and I think
Speaker 1: I believe yours. Yeah, yours is on the federal list.
Speaker 1: So any holiday that is not a current holiday but
Speaker 1: makes a lot more sense in Valentine's Day. You can,
Speaker 1: you can bring to the table and we will then
Speaker 1: accept your offer or not right, So we'll go around
Speaker 1: because I'm not hugging this. Everyone has to do this.
Speaker 1: So my first yeah, my first round. I think the
Speaker 1: first Thursday of March Madness should be a holiday that
Speaker 1: first day, maybe a half day, a half day holiday,
Speaker 1: beginning at twelve or six. Okay, I was best at
Speaker 1: the game, start twelve or six. Okay, I'm swapping out
Speaker 1: Columbus Day. Yeah, I think everyone can agree. I think
Speaker 1: Columbus Day might just sorry Ohio, but no Columbus. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's why it's holiday. I think Columbus Day is just
Speaker 1: going to be the overwhelming get out of here holiday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: sorry Columbus. This is another thing we've mentioned on this,
Speaker 1: so we have as well. You're going back to that
Speaker 1: on that Also, Washington's birthday is President's Day or Washington's Birthday,
Speaker 1: I believe, well, on the federal list I was looking at,
Speaker 1: it's actually called Washington's Birthday. I do believe it is
Speaker 1: President's Day, but it is Washington's birthday. I kind of
Speaker 1: want to get rid of that one, and I would
Speaker 1: like to put in election day yes, makes no sense.
Speaker 1: It makes no sense that election day you don't get
Speaker 1: that day off. I would like Election day to go
Speaker 1: in for President's Day kind of the same idea. No perfect, Okay,
Speaker 1: I would say in this we just recently came through
Speaker 1: this day the day after the super Bowl. You should
Speaker 1: be a holiday. Um here's what I would take off.
Speaker 1: I'm curious to hear what you guys think about this
Speaker 1: April Fool's Day. I hate it. I'm not a fan,
Speaker 1: really not a fan. I just just like I could
Speaker 1: do with that it. You know, it's like, why are
Speaker 1: we why are we doing this? I especially hate it
Speaker 1: because I have to be on Twitter so much and
Speaker 1: everybody is just trying to play these gotcha games on
Speaker 1: Twitter with like creating false reports, and it's Twitter is
Speaker 1: terrible enough as it is sometimes, and that especially is
Speaker 1: just like I can't stand it. I hate it. Can
Speaker 1: we just go ahead of everyone out there? If you're
Speaker 1: thinking of doing an April Fool's joke about being pregnant
Speaker 1: getting engaged, just don't do it, especially the pregnant one.
Speaker 1: Don't do that. That's completely insensitive. Stop it all right,
Speaker 1: Moving on, what's our next one? I think National Pie Day. Okay,
Speaker 1: we need to add that that is March three point
Speaker 1: one four. It's up coming. Yeah, it's also Steph Curry's birthday. Yeah,
Speaker 1: National Pie Day. I'm okay, um, I'm okay. I kind
Speaker 1: of like that one because normally there are pies in
Speaker 1: the office and if I'm at home, I'm not making
Speaker 1: a pie. Um. I I would like this is a
Speaker 1: little way I have to the first one. I would
Speaker 1: like Black Friday. I like that day off. Sometimes you
Speaker 1: get that day off. I think some places I've worked,
Speaker 1: you get kind of the whole week, you know, just
Speaker 1: to go do what you want. But I wanted to
Speaker 1: be official that I don't have to work. You know,
Speaker 1: when you start planning your your trips for Thanksgiving, you
Speaker 1: don't have to wonder what do they want me to
Speaker 1: come and do it. I'm not gonna have to take
Speaker 1: this day off. My mom and I are also huge
Speaker 1: Black Friday shoppers, so don't mess up my Black Friday.
Speaker 1: I want that off. I would like to expand Labor
Speaker 1: Day into a you get the Friday before Labor Day
Speaker 1: weekend off, and you keep the Monday after Labor Day
Speaker 1: weekend off. Because it's college football, a lot of people
Speaker 1: go to the lake and whatnot. I think I like
Speaker 1: that motions. I mean, I'd like to just get Labor
Speaker 1: Day off. Here in the Panthers, we don't get Labor Day,
Speaker 1: but if we did, what I take that I approved
Speaker 1: that Monday and Friday off for Labor Day. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: don't get that day because it's in season. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: Another one I would like off is the Monday after
Speaker 1: daylight savings. How do you feel about daylight savings? Just
Speaker 1: in general? Matt's shaking his head and he's got a
Speaker 1: hot take on this. Here we go. I don't like it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just pick one and just stick. And I don't like it.
Speaker 1: I don't like I don't like that it gets dark early.
Speaker 1: I think it's very archaic that completely do it. We're
Speaker 1: not in a grarian culture. We have we have electricity. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we have electricity. We have heat, Yeah we do yeah.
Speaker 1: Um yeah, I'm not I don't really understand it. But
Speaker 1: if we're gonna have it, i'd da at least on
Speaker 1: that Monday off. It's all about the days off in
Speaker 1: accordance with the holidays that I think we're zeroing in.
Speaker 1: What what Caroline's assessment is? Oh yeah, I really didn't
Speaker 1: come up with a holiday that is just a holiday
Speaker 1: with no day off. Aren't There aren't there counties in
Speaker 1: Indiana that don't that don't observe daylight savings. So Indiana
Speaker 1: has two different times zones, have Central time Zone and
Speaker 1: they have um normal Indiana. I don't. I don't think
Speaker 1: so anymore. There used to be where Indiana did not observe.
Speaker 1: There's like Arizona does not observe daylight savings, right, so
Speaker 1: you could technically be two hours off by just walking
Speaker 1: across the street or something. Yeah, it is weird when
Speaker 1: you get up near Gary, Indiana. That's technically like around
Speaker 1: a suburb of Chicago. So that's why they are in
Speaker 1: Central But it yeah, it does. It does get weird.
Speaker 1: Funny story about traveling to Chicago from India that has
Speaker 1: nothing to do with this pod guess, but I'm going
Speaker 1: to share is one of my first weekends off in Indy.
Speaker 1: I decided I would love to I've never been to Chicago.
Speaker 1: You can drive there now, which is insane where I live.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna drive to Chicago, go see a friend,
Speaker 1: and come back. I did this and I get back,
Speaker 1: go to sleep, wake up getting ready for work, and
Speaker 1: I get a phone call. It's like, hey, where are
Speaker 1: you from? My boss? My god? Getting ready? Is everything okay?
Speaker 1: Something going on? And he was like, what time do
Speaker 1: you think it is right now? And I was like
Speaker 1: eight fifteen. He was like, and it's I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, I mean think this is my first
Speaker 1: I haven't even been working there, you know, for four months,
Speaker 1: and this is my very first job out of college.
Speaker 1: I freak out and I'm like rushing in, but I
Speaker 1: was exactly one hour late to work, exactly like to
Speaker 1: the minute of when I'd normally arrived. It just never
Speaker 1: switched back for me. What time do you think it is? Right? No? No,
Speaker 1: I instantly I remember where I was stating in my
Speaker 1: old apartment when he said that. I'm like, but yeah,
Speaker 1: there are some I may be wrong about this, but
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure all of Indiana does do daylight savings,
Speaker 1: but it is that there's two different time zones. Arizona
Speaker 1: does not do daylight savings, correct, I'm not sure. I
Speaker 1: felt like I remember some TV episodes where there's like
Speaker 1: specific counties that mess with it, and so that you
Speaker 1: like cross into a different county and then you lose
Speaker 1: or gaine hours or something. We've got this cool thing
Speaker 1: now that's like a computer that you can hold in
Speaker 1: your hand. I'm going to look on there and see, mact.
Speaker 1: Do you have any other holidays you want to draft?
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think I'm good. What about
Speaker 1: tweet Day? April three? Tweet day? Tweet day? What's that?
Speaker 1: I feel the need the need for tweet Most of
Speaker 1: Arizona does not. I was getting there. Gosh, yeah, I
Speaker 1: think it is Arizona. What's the four ate more? Do
Speaker 1: you have anything on Indiana yet? Oh? There we go
Speaker 1: Indiana now they do it? Yeah, Arizona no? Oh, and
Speaker 1: oh Hawaii. That kind of makes sense. They're on their own. Interesting. Well,
Speaker 1: don't say we don't ever teach you anything, because we
Speaker 1: are coming in strong with that one. Are we good
Speaker 1: with holidays? Are there any other holidays we would like
Speaker 1: to bring into question? I feel pretty good. Please let
Speaker 1: us know, number one, what is the appropriate amount for
Speaker 1: a small gift on Valentine's Day? And also let us
Speaker 1: know if there are other holidays that you would like
Speaker 1: for us to bring in front of the council and
Speaker 1: voted on to see if we can over change. I
Speaker 1: really do think the Luke keek Lely Day could be
Speaker 1: a thing. I think we need to bring that up.
Speaker 1: And I mean we kind of have the power in
Speaker 1: some ways to get it started. With the Panthers social handles.
Speaker 1: We can kind of do it. We can, really, we can,
Speaker 1: you know, we can maybe make this. We need to
Speaker 1: get Luke behind it with all his social media and
Speaker 1: the Monday after Super Bowl, that's got to be. It's
Speaker 1: got a lot of too many people in watching the
Speaker 1: game opening day for baseball. No wow, hear me out
Speaker 1: on this. It's baseball. You don't have to go to
Speaker 1: the baseball game, but you get that day. I rather
Speaker 1: go to work just to stick into baseball. Oh oh boy.
Speaker 1: I'm not a baseball guy either, but Matt, this is
Speaker 1: I'll work a double just to not give baseball their due.
Speaker 1: I just don't like baseball. What did it do to you?
Speaker 1: Did you get cut? Did you you didn't make a team?
Speaker 1: Did you? I didn't play baseball past, couldn't hit the
Speaker 1: curveball like nine years old, Astra. There has to be
Speaker 1: more to this story. I just hate baseball. This is
Speaker 1: a fiery passion. Though I've never seen I've never seen you.
Speaker 1: You know, feel this strongly. I really don't like baseball.
Speaker 1: Well there you haven't. For the group chat. Mad Open
Speaker 1: hates baseball, but the other ones here don't. So don't
Speaker 1: hate us, just don't be happy with him. We hope
Speaker 1: you enjoyed this week of the group chat. We hope
Speaker 1: you'll at least learn something. I mean, please hit us
Speaker 1: up with those things that we asked. With Valentine's Day
Speaker 1: coming up, I hope you enjoy celebrating this not real holiday.
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you guys next week. Wo
