1
00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: Hi everyone, I'm Rachel, Zoe and I and you're listening

2
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 1: to Work for Us, where we talk to people about

3
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: what works for them in their relationships and of course

4
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:19,080
Speaker 1: what doesn't. Okay, so we're back, finally back. I'm sure

5
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: I'm not the only one feeling this way, but this

6
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: time of year is just completely insane, I think for everybody.

7
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: I sometimes actually get the September scaries. September, how old

8
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: are you? I just do because I know what it means.

9
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: I just know how hard life is going to hit once,

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: you know, after Labor Day comes September because of fashion

11
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: month has always historically been for me, the most insane,

12
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: intense time, and with so much going on, we thought

13
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: this week would give everyone a little life update as

14
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: we reset and get back to our usual whatever usual

15
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: is routine in fashion. The biggest magazine issues always come

16
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,279
Speaker 1: out in September because it's the beginning of the fashion year.

17
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: So this is technically our September issue. Hey, Ray, Yeah,

18
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure. Everyone in the world has our

19
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: life clock to the fashion calendar. So and you have

20
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 1: no but like, why is it even Like what do

21
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: you mean the start of the fashion season? Like, what

22
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: is what is fashion Month? Well, I mean, okay, so

23
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: basically it's interesting because it means different things in the

24
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: US than it does in Europe, because in Europe they

25
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 1: literally do peace out for all of August. They shut down,

26
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: the shrem shut down. And I have to say deservedly

27
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: so because I think, although people may not completely see it,

28
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: designers work so unbelievably hard and basically they take off

29
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: for August ear up and then they go into preparing

30
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: for their fashion shows. So what fashion Month means is

31
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 1: that basically after Labor Day, Fashion Month season starts. And

32
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: what that means is that it started off as a

33
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: week or ten days of New York Fashion Week into

34
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 1: a smaller, shorter London Fashion Week, which now over the

35
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: last five ten years has gotten much bigger, which then

36
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: goes into a week in Milan and then ends with

37
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 1: the final show week in Paris. So all in it's

38
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: roughly a month. But what people may or may not

39
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: know is that fashion editors, the most well known of

40
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: course Anna Wintour, but her entire team and the team

41
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: all these magazines travel to all of these places and

42
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: go to fashion shows, and it's a full month, and

43
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: most people get the flu you get the fashion flu,

44
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: everybody gets sick, everybody's tired, the models are exhausted. It's

45
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: it's glamorous and amazing and the most incredible experience, but

46
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: it's also a lot of work and very intense. So

47
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,399
Speaker 1: our life, my life, therefore, your life has been very

48
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: much governed and scheduled around fashion Week and the beginning

49
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 1: of it, which also for all of our listeners is

50
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: also occurring in February of year during our anniversary. The

51
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: worst time to get married if you're in the fashion

52
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 1: industry or entertainment industry, by the way, for sure. But

53
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: also what is pretty interesting is what I think most

54
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: people think about like fashion weeks. You know, I'm sure

55
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: everyone's seeing, you know, the runway from Powers and whatnot,

56
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: is that that's sort of like the consumer or the

57
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: people looking at the show. But what's really happening also

58
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: is there's the editors obviously writing about what they're seeing,

59
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: but more importantly, it's actually supposed to be a market

60
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: where stores are buying the merchandise for the future seasons.

61
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: So it's really almost it's really more of a business

62
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: to business activity where businesses get together and decide on

63
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: what they're buying, so a little bit. The other thing

64
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: I should say is that there's a million events and

65
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: parties and launches and you know, so you're going to

66
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: shows by day into the night, the last shows usually

67
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: around eight pm, which then goes into some kind of

68
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: dinner or some kind of you know, pr public relations

69
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: event for a specific brand. So it's a time of

70
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: you know, working hard by day and also playing very

71
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: hard at night. For some and way back when before

72
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: Skyler and Caius were born, Rache and I used to

73
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: go directly from the Hamptons right into New York City.

74
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: I think we used to get our clothes ship, I

75
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: think from LA and yeah, spend like ten days in

76
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 1: New York and then some times go on you know

77
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: to London or the other cities. But that was then

78
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 1: when we didn't have children or now a puppy, right,

79
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: But I think two for all two things. A we

80
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: obviously have a family, so it's a little less not appropriate,

81
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: but just harder for us to do obviously. But we

82
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: also knew, babe, remember when we had sky We knew

83
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: that our time was limited as to how much longer

84
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 1: we could go from our summer into fashion months because

85
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: we knew once he was in like kindergarten, you know

86
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: that we would have to come back for first day

87
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: of school and all that. But the good news, if

88
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 1: there is good news, is I would say that fashion

89
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 1: week weeks around the world, I would say they've taken

90
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 1: on significantly and less significantly less significance. That was a

91
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: terrible grammar, but you know, I'm going to go with it.

92
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about. But the point is

93
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: is as not as two things of appened. You know,

94
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't show. A lot of people

95
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 1: show on their own schedule. A lot of people show

96
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 1: on Instagram or on other places and other venues that

97
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 1: they just feel would be more fun, more appropriate for

98
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: their collection at a time when they feel is the

99
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 1: best for them. So I think the whole I think

100
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: there are people that are kind of holding onto that

101
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,359
Speaker 1: we travel around the world and you know, for a

102
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 1: month and leave our families can get sick, you know,

103
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: Like I think that there's probably a smaller percentage of

104
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: people that want to continue. I just think because of

105
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: modern technology and social media, you don't have to physically

106
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 1: be there anymore. But I will say that Roger and

107
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 1: I went to Couture just before COVID and it was

108
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 1: awesome and like just like being there in person, right

109
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: next to the clothes, right on the runway like that

110
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: and listen for me, like going backstage and seeing the

111
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: designers that I've known my whole career and you know,

112
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 1: and just kind of being in it. There is definitely

113
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: an experiential friends, No, no, I agree out in that.

114
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: I agree, but in many ways I'd rather do it

115
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 1: on our own time. I mean, you go there, I would.

116
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: I personally, it's funny. I would go to Kature just

117
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: for exactly what you said, because it's beautiful and it's

118
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: fun and you know, but I don't necessarily want to

119
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: go there because I have to or because you know,

120
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: there's work to be done. Can I tell a little

121
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: funny story really quick? Oh two second story, honey. I

122
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: mean when Roger was so when Roger was an investment

123
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: banker and living his pretty boring life and he used

124
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: to duck out and come to fashion shows with me.

125
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: The first time I took him to Quture, he was

126
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: so blown away he couldn't recover from like the the um,

127
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: the show itself, the presentation, the whole thing. He just

128
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: like lost his mind. And then shortly after that we

129
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: went to Ready to Wear again. That September, he was

130
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: at the shows and he goes, maybe no offense, but like,

131
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: this is really just nothing compared to what we saw

132
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: in July. He's like, I mean that was like artwork.

133
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: He's like, I mean I love it, don't get me wrong.

134
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: And I was like, can you make those pants? He's

135
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: like no. I was like, then, don't say another word.

136
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,239
Speaker 1: He's like, right, But I do think that if anyone

137
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: can have the chance, even now, just to look at

138
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 1: cuture online and you've never watched the culture shows, watched

139
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: the videos, it's so extraordinary and so worth it, and

140
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: it's like it's like a bone chilling ranch to watch

141
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: for your listeners. Who would tell them? Who would you

142
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: think some of the shows that they should check out?

143
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 1: The quature shows that might have just happened or happened

144
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,359
Speaker 1: you are that you think they should be your Valentino

145
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: Pierre Pierre A. Paulo is literally just one of the

146
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: most brilliant designers of our time. He took over the

147
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: Valentino label several years ago. Maria Grazia Cherry, does your

148
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: couture extraordinary? Sean Batista Valley, very dear friend in one

149
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 1: of the most brilliant designer It's amazing. Um, there's so

150
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 1: much talent out there right now, and I think I

151
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: think if you can, if you can see Kuture shows online,

152
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: it's so worth it. It'll take ten minutes and it's

153
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: just beautiful. Whether you're into fashion or not, I strongly

154
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 1: recommend it. All. Right, then a little fashion flashback here,

155
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,079
Speaker 1: So Rache, Now we are back in LA. We clearly

156
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: didn't go to quote unquote fashion Week, but I'm feeling

157
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: like we're busier than ever, almost in a different sort

158
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: of family fashion week. I don't know how you explain

159
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: this what we're experienced right now, but the summer was

160
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: pretty busy, as we took no days off. Yeah, as

161
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: we might have mentioned, we really didn't have many days off.

162
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: I think people use that expression for exercising, they'd go

163
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,960
Speaker 1: no days off, no days off, right, I use it

164
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: for work. I think I think it's both. Um, I

165
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 1: don't work out, so I don't know. I just I've

166
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: only seen it referencing exercise. I'll have to give you

167
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: an encyclopedia Jim jargon. Um. In any event, I guess

168
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is, now we're back here. Um, we're

169
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: not doing the fashion thing, but we're like doing We're

170
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: doing like the business, We're doing like the kid. We're

171
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: doing like we're doing a lot. When I feel everyone

172
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: up to speed, what the hell are we doing? I

173
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: feel like I haven't worked this hard since two thousand

174
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: and nine, just saying this is the craziest. I feel

175
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: like I feel like I'm doing fashion. I feel like

176
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: I'm doing styling, which I technically retired from, although I'm

177
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: kind of back in it. Um, we've now come back

178
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: because I never left. Recently become a venture capitalist, which

179
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: I'm completely obsessed with Phase two hundred and twenty of

180
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 1: my career, and um, and of course running and continuing

181
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 1: to build creatur and being you know, my chief creator

182
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: self well rich. You know, I'm really excited back in

183
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: LA because, um, we got to start getting you back

184
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: in the office. What are you? How are you feeling

185
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 1: about that? You ready to rock and roll and spend

186
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 1: some indoor time in our lovely office. I'm in my office. Well,

187
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: this is our house, Rachel. I've always worked from home.

188
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: I don't know about you. You've always worked in an

189
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 1: office I've worked from home since I was twenty five,

190
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:20,599
Speaker 1: actually twenty yeah, twenty five, So you're not going to

191
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: grace us present, of course, will I will adhere to

192
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: the CDC guidelines of working from home or not? Well,

193
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: that's a fancy you should say that. But we're reopening

194
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: our office October five. Get ready. It's going to be amazing,

195
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: of course. Anyway, one of the biggest differences in Roger

196
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: and I is that he's always loved to work in

197
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: an office because he likes a separation, and I have

198
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: never liked to work in an office because I've worked

199
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: for myself in my house, in my garage, in my

200
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: studio since I was twenty five, and I actually function

201
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: way better that way. However, I do believe that when

202
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 1: there are certain things that need to be done that's

203
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: surrounding yourself with your team, which I will continue to do,

204
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: is extremely important. However that gets done so anyway. But

205
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: I do think that life for us is just different now.

206
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: I just think everything is different. We have to be

207
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 1: hands on with the back to school, we have to

208
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: still continue to run our company very diligently and hands on.

209
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 1: I think we're both pretty admitted workaholics of the worst kind.

210
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm more productive at home because I don't need a

211
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,839
Speaker 1: million people around me to be able to do my business. No,

212
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: you're just antisocial, okay. And by the way, by the way,

213
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: being an introvert is not something I'm ashamed. Oh, by

214
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 1: the way, not that it matters, But I do think

215
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: that being in an office, like the ability to not

216
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: have to like get on the phone, wait for everyone

217
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: to get on the phone, do all that crap, and

218
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: just the ability to walk over to someone and get

219
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: a quick answer, I think really speeds up the whole thing.

220
00:12:54,080 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: I will say that even before COVID, we for those

221
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: of you who don't know whatever, we got a new

222
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: office that we haven't moved into yet because COVID happened,

223
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: so that was really great. We signed release two weeks

224
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 1: before COVID, good timing. But any who, now that we're

225
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: returning to the office, we always had the intention when

226
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: we got this new space to only come into the

227
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 1: office Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, because we thought a way

228
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: better for the environment, a little bit less commuting time

229
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: for all these la people, and also just the fact

230
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: that it's a very constructive use of your time. If

231
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: you're an adult, which we hope all of our employees are,

232
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: you know, just to be able to manage their Mondays

233
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: and Fridays and set up the rest of the week. Rachel,

234
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: are you snoring during our show? Rachel Zoe whoa WHOA

235
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: Goldie was like, whoa, there's a horse in our literally

236
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: fell asleep? Why because that's really Oh, I'm sorry. Anytime

237
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: we actually have to run our business, it's boring. Anytime

238
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: that Rachel, just like I think you're talking about, says

239
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: dumb stuff, it's like exciting and dramatic and exhilarating. It's

240
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: fall now, one of my absolute favorite seasons. It's a

241
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 1: time for snuggling up and getting really cozy. And if

242
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: you're looking for new shoes, I'm telling you the coziest

243
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: shoes you can find are Rothy's. Rothi's surveyed thousands of

244
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: customers and the number one word used to describe their

245
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: shoes is comfortable. Their seamless design creates such an easy,

246
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: comfortable fit that you won't want to take them off.

247
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: They have adorable flats, loafers, and sneakers, and all of

248
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: them are totally machine washable. And Rothi's, by the way,

249
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: are not just for women anymore. Their men sneakers and

250
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: loafers are so stylish and they're one of the only

251
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: things in Roger's wardrobe that I actually approve of. I

252
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 1: also love the fun colors and prints that Rothi's has

253
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: in their collection. You know, I love animal prints, and

254
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: they have such chic designs available. And if all that

255
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: wasn't enough, they are also sustainable and made from recycled

256
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: plastic water bottles. How incredible is that I am so

257
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: obsessed with Rothy's from my very first pair. Anyway, you'll

258
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: definitely be grateful for having a pair of Rothy's chic flats,

259
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: loafers or sneakers in your life. My whole family wears

260
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: Rothy's to help you welcome the fall season in style.

261
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: Rothy's is doing something very special. That's right. They gave

262

Speaker 1: us the chance to share the super rare opportunity with

268
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: sweat the small stuff, but in my line of work,

269
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: it's literally my job to make sure every little detail

270
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: is just right. When it comes to styling, details are

271
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: truly everything, from the embellishment on the garments I'm dressing

272
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: clients in to making sure I notice every loose thread

273
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: or imperfection. My career lives and dies on all the

274
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: little details. That's why I truly appreciate Bowl and Branch sheets.

275
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 1: Bolan Branch was started by a husband and wife team

276
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: who wanted to create a textile company that cared about

277
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: the details that would make their products last. And I

278
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: can tell you from personal experience, these sheets are the

279
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 1: highest quality around. They're actually intentionally designed and manufactured for

280
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: maximum durability while still feeling like a cloud. Once I

281
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: switched to using their best selling beautifully crafted signature sheets,

282
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: I could actually feel the difference immediately. Roger and I

283
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: like to think of our bedroom as kind of like

284
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: a sanctuary, and using Bowl and Branch sheets has truly

285
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,920
Speaker 1: taken our little oasis to another level. They feel so

286
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: bettery soft on my skin, and they just seem to

287
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 1: get softer and softer as time goes on even after

288
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 1: multiple washes, and for somebody who sleeps hot like Roger,

289
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: the breathable lightness of Bowl and Branch sheets makes a

00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,560

297
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: the sort of leaders of the companies are just so

298
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: understanding of people's comfort level because the reality of it is,

299
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 1: the pandemic is still very strong, thankfully in LA right now.

300
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: As of like today, we're one of the lowest numbers

301
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,120
Speaker 1: in the US, which is great. But I do think

302
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: that it is a legitimate fear and one that I

303
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: definitely relate to. As I said, I've realized even more

304
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 1: so during COVID. I mean, I'm definitely an introvert, and

305
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,719
Speaker 1: that's okay. Roger needs to be around people. He's like

306
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: a child. He literally needs to be around people all

307
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: the time. But I think to each his own and

308
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: I think that for people that have anxiety, I think

309
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: that's okay. And I actually think that's why this sort

310
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: of tiptoe back in of the three days a week

311
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: versus five really gives people that opportunity to sort of

312
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: like baby step back in. Do you think the ladies

313
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: are excited to get back into the office and like

314
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: wear new clothes Now, I think that people are going

315
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 1: to be I think people are going to wear what

316
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: they're comfortable. And we've always had a very chill work environment.

317
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: There's never been dress code. There's never you know, I

318
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: think people expect that I have these expectations of what

319
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 1: people should wear to the office, and I actually really don't.

320
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: I think that if you do have external meats, then

321
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: you should dress appropriately. But I think I think that

322
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 1: now more than ever, it's about what people are comfortable in.

323
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 1: And you know, I don't think skin should be showing

324
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: during working hours, if you know what I mean. But

325
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,719
Speaker 1: I do think that people are kind of I mean, honestly,

326
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: I think people at least it would appear in the

327
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: next I don't know, three d to six months. I

328
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,959
Speaker 1: would say that there's a dramatic there's there's a lot

329
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: of people that are going to kind of not renswer

330
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: the workforce but reanswer the physical workforce in some way,

331
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: and physical restaurants and physical sporting events. That's happening a

332
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 1: lot now, which I can't actually believe. That really blew

333
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: me away. Last week, people like millions of people at

334
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,680
Speaker 1: a football game that was for whatever reason that really

335
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 1: freaked me out. Well, it is what you know, they're

336
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 1: doing what they're doing, so anyway, But the point is is, like,

337
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 1: don't you think people are like their bodies of all

338
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: change or you think people are going to like be

339
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 1: going shopping and like wearing new stuff. Yes, but yes,

340
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: but I don't think it's going to be dressed up yet.

341
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 1: I don't dressed up like new. I don't know. I

342
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: just feel like everyone, like I don't know, everyone's closed

343
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: like two years old. People aren't feeling fiscally comfortable right now.

344
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: A lot of people are very conservative right now. And

345
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,959
Speaker 1: quite frankly, it was really funny. I've been wearing all

346
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 1: these like new gowns to these things we've been going

347
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,120
Speaker 1: to and where it is like what is up my team?

348
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 1: And I'm like bought it over covid or like bought

349
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: it before COVID and just took the tags off. So

350
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 1: I do think people that shopped pre COVID probably haven't

351
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 1: gone anywhere or done anything, and like everything is like new,

352
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: you know. So I don't know. I think people are

353
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: going to dress to feel whatever makes them feel like

354
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 1: their best selves rather than outside their comfort zone. To

355
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: be honest, yeah, very comfortable dressing, you know. I know

356
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 1: you're more casual even than before. I actually had to

357
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: fire like zoom dressing. It was so bad. Yeah. Again,

358
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: we live in La, so getting dressed up is really

359
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,199
Speaker 1: a full errand because people the more dressed up you

360
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 1: are is like people just look at you, like why

361
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,719
Speaker 1: you're you're despread Like why you're desperate while you're dressed up?

362
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: It really is true. Like if I showed up to

363
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: my office at a suit, oh my god, would literally

364
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: laugh at it. The only people who wear suits here

365
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: are lawyers and agents. But even even the agents and

366
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 1: the lawyers are less and less and less but less.

367
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: But but yes, yeah, still in a suit and time.

368
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 1: But so what I'm saying is I've always been, I think,

369
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: always leaning towards casual, especially out here. I would say

370
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:27,479
Speaker 1: the difference for me is that like I'm also again

371
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 1: comfort casual, you know, so like now I'm also pretty

372
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 1: get comfort casual. For money, we can and we could try, um,

373
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:39,479
Speaker 1: but comfort is paramount. And I don't know what was

374
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: really interesting is going back to that thing where you

375
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 1: wear some towns. You know, I put in a suit

376
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 1: or two lately, and you know, it feels really good

377
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: to get dressed up and well, thank god they're all

378
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: too big on me. But um but yeah, I know

379
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 1: you can't see Roger, but he's shrunk in COVID. I

380
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 1: know you can't see Roger. Just picture probably one of

381
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: the most handsome men you've ever seen, with a body

382
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: like adonis six pack. And you know you could tell

383
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,160
Speaker 1: my voice is awesome because I speak to you every week.

384
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: And um, yeah, that's about it. So this whole back

385
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,919
Speaker 1: to school things, so my biggest fear of Rachel is like,

386
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: do you think the kids, well, don't forget our kid friends,

387
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: but our kids like, you know, how to make friends.

388
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. We actually did a homeschool last year.

389
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: We actually took our kids out of school and did

390
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: a homeschool program with them, which I used to think

391
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: that parents were insane for doing because I have a

392
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: lot of friends that homeschool their kids, and I always

393
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 1: thought they should get checked. But there was something really

394
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: awesome about it. And I secretly or not so secretly

395
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: because I'm sharing it with you, really miss it. But

396
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 1: some kids went back to school last spring and ours

397
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,320
Speaker 1: did not, and so them rolling into school about ten

398
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,199
Speaker 1: days ago, and it was weird, like I had a

399
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 1: separation anxiety. But I think, um, I don't know. I mean,

400
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,680
Speaker 1: I think it's weird. They're all in masks, you know.

401
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if I'm a kid. I

402
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 1: think it bothers the parents more than it bothers the kids. Definitely,

403
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 1: the kids are fine with it, but it's weird, like

404
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 1: when I look at them all like pick up and

405
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: drop out, they're all just in masks. They're running around

406
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: outside and Matt, I mean, it's just like it's crazy.

407
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: But it's definitely back to school definitely looks different this year.

408
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: But I think more than ever, we have to I

409
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 1: think the older the kids get, the more involved you know,

410
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: you have to be. And you know, I've found that

411
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: our kids need us in a in a different way now,

412
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 1: you know, just like more and more they almost need

413
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: like it's it's like to go back to school. Yeah,

414
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: but I think they also it's almost like, um, it's

415
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: like a sounding board. It's like it's like they're using

416
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: us as like a check like Mom, did I do

417
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,160
Speaker 1: this right? Or Mom, do you think this is how?

418
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: You know? Because they are kind of relearning the process

419
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: of school, you know. Yeah, I would imagine there's a

420
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: lot of socialization shoes for a lot of kids out there,

421
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 1: kind of reacclimating to what it's like to be around kids. Yeah,

422
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 1: I think as parents, certainly for me, less for Roger,

423
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: but I have like a crazy attachment to my kid,

424
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,959
Speaker 1: like I'm already doing like a slow build to the

425
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 1: summer when Skyler has begged me to go to sleep

426
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: boy camp for a few weeks. But I think, I

427
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: think you have to play it really cool because I

428
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: think the more they see that you're struggling, the more

429
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: they feel it, and it like intensifies. Whereas I think

430
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 1: if you sort of, I don't want to say trivialize it,

431
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 1: but if you're if you sort of make light of it, like,

432
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 1: oh my god, it's only a few hours and I'm

433
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 1: so excited to see you after We're going to do

434
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,360
Speaker 1: all these fun things and like da da da da.

435
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 1: And you know, I think you almost have to like

436
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,120
Speaker 1: skim over it a little bit because the more deep

437
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: you go with it, the more as as a kid

438
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 1: who was so attached and so homesick, the more my

439
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 1: parents talk to me deeply about it, the more it

440
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: actually intensified. Where if you almost just like make it

441
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 1: part of like what life is now, you go to

442
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: school and then afterwards, I'm gonna pick you up and

443
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna get ice cream, or we're gonna do homework.

444
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun. We're gonna read together. And you know,

445
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: I think I think that helps. Babe. What do you

446
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: have to say? Um? What do I have to say?

447
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 1: I say that kids should go to school and parents

448
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: should not. The fact that they're gone all day is

449
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 1: a wonderful thing. Um. I encourage them to do after

450
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: school activities as well, so we signed them up for

451
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: some of that. Um. So yeah, that's pretty much it.

452
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: Like I don't know, I think the question but you

453
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: can't relate to kids that are what I think. Well,

454
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 1: that's the thing. I think the question really is like

455
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,159
Speaker 1: you gave it from your point of view, like you

456
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: were an attached one. But that's because I was an

457
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: attached kids. I understand how you deal with an attached

458
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: child just because you like locked out the door and

459
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 1: didn't care. I wasn't an attached kid, so you're not

460
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 1: an attached preparing and so you know, maybe well maybe

461
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: you get it from your parents a little or your

462
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: or you're young, you're younger self if you will, But

463
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: like for me, I think, yeah, you gotta you know,

464
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: the first, the first thing with the with again, the

465
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 1: kid doesn't want to go yet, you know they're upset,

466
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 1: but like at some point, like life's not fair and

467
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: you gotta do it, like school is. It's like it's

468
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 1: it's not a negotiable, but that doesn't stop it from happening.

469
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,439
Speaker 1: So open your heart to children that cry from the

470
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: minute their motherlyused no. I understand that you and you

471
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: obviously can't be insensitive, but at the end of the day,

472
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 1: I also believe that you know, you can't necessarily give

473
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: a voice to it, because if you give a voice

474
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: to something that's not happening, then there's a thought on

475
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,439
Speaker 1: that little person's behalf that maybe they don't have to

476
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 1: go to school if they cry hard enough or whatever,

477
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,399
Speaker 1: And reality is if you live just laid down the law.

478
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: Do you mean how my mom picked me up from

479
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 1: school for like three out of five days a week?

480
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: And second, create is that what you're referring to? Yeah,

481
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 1: because and then you would call against that she would

482
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 1: do it again. I mean the reality of stomach ache.

483
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 1: But if yeah, right, the reality is is you probably

484
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 1: ate in race or on purpose just so you can

485
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: get called out. A psychological stomach ache yep, psychosomatic in

486
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: any event. But I do believe, and this is maybe

487
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,239
Speaker 1: where we differ a little in parenting that you know,

488
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: you should be compassionate at your kids, but at the

489
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 1: same time, you shouldn't give them that opportunity to go

490
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: on longer than they should about the inevitable. I agree

491
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 1: with that at a certain age. So I agree with

492
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: that at a certain age. I think while they're a

493
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: little don't you know what is it enable or embellish? Enable? Really? Um?

494
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: The behavior? You know, if you could, if you could

495
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 1: prevent it. You know, kids cry, used to crawl all

496
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: the time? You stop crying? It something? No, I didn't

497
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: really because that was awesome. Eating healthy, delicious food has

498
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: always been very important to me and As a mom

499
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 1: raising too very quickly growing boys, it's become even more important.

500
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 1: That's why I'm such a huge fan of Green Chef.

501
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 1: Green Chef is the first USDA certified organic meal kit company.

502

507
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,080
Speaker 1: time stressing and more time enjoying delicious, home cooked meals.

508
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: I do love making food for my boys, but that

509
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 1: doesn't mean I have all the time in the world

510
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 1: to do it. Green Chef has helped me stay consistent

511
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: about preparing healthy meals without taking over my schedule. And

512
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 1: the best thing is they have dishes that my entire

513
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 1: family enjoys. My boys really like the beef Cavatapi skillet,

514
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: which is this cheesy pasta that still has the protein

515
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: of veggies that they really need. And they also have

516
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: this delicious blackened burrow moundy with de Jonnais that Roger

517
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: and I both absolutely love, and the menu changes so

530
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,239
Speaker 1: who actually enjoys shopping, but I know that it can

531
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: be daunting to choose between a ton of fabulous options.

532
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: To make it a little bit easier, I tend to

533
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,719
Speaker 1: look for the pieces that have that little extra something

534
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: that make them truly special. In fact, I'm always looking

535
00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 1: for that extra something even when I'm not chopping, and

536
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 1: that's why I choose to drink Fuzzy as the first

537
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: hard saltzer with antioxidant vitamin C, Fuzzy brings something unique

538
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: and delicious to the table. There are plenty of hard

539
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 1: saltzers to choose from, but with eight bold and delicious

540
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: dual fruit flavors and antioxidant vitamin C extracted from ascerolla cherry,

541
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: which by the way, has more than thirty times more

542
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: vitamin C per cup than an orange, Fuzzy makes the

543
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 1: choice a little easier and a lot tastier. Fuzzy flavors

544
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: include pineapple, mango, black cherry, lime, strawberry, Kiwi, blueberry, pomegranate, papaya,

545
00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: passion fruit, watermelon, strawberry, BlackBerry, lemon, and raspberry tangerine. My

546
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: new favorite is the BlackBerry lemon, which feels like an

547
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: elevated hard seltzer choice for fall and Visy also recently

548
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 1: launch their own Lemonade hard seltzer, which includes favors like watermelon, peach, raspberry,

549
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 1: and strawberry. Seriously, every Busy flavor is so delicious you'll

550
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: want to try them all. It never hurts to add

551
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: a little vitamin C into the mix, so why not

552
00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 1: upgrade your hard seltzer to usy. It's definitely the option

553
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,960

Speaker 1: Seltzer dot com slash Zoe. You must be twenty one

557
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: to enjoy busy. Both of our children were very blessed there.

558
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 1: They are. They're very intelligent, kids, are very old soul kids.

559
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 1: They can both hold their own with kids of any

560
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: age or adults of literally any age. U Kai is

561
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 1: built beat my dad in chess a couple of weeks ago,

562
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 1: and my d was very humbled by the fact that

563
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: he got his butt kicked from a seven year old. However,

564
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: I do think that they're very equal in a lot

565
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: of ways, because Skylar is very life sophisticated. He's very

566
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: he can kind of roll anywhere and talk to Anybody's

567
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: very street smart and savvy. And Kias is sort of

568
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: like this kind of mad scientist, a little bit trapped

569
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 1: in this like seven year old silly kid body, and

570
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: so Kias is this weird dichotomy of like part silly

571
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 1: kid and part kind of rocket scientist. So he thankfully.

572
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 1: I think that's actually why they get along really well,

573
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: is because I think intellectually they are somewhat They can

574
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 1: be on the same level with each other for different things,

575
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: because most of Skylar's friends with siblings the same age

576
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: difference don't get along very well. And I've tried to

577
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: figure out why they get along, and I think one

578
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 1: of the reasons is because kas Skylar can really find

579
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 1: a friend in Kaius, because he can really relate to

580
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: him and talk to him like he's on the same level,

581
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: and so I think that's really helped. I don't think

582
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 1: they do play like math games and they like teach

583
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: each other things, but I actually think that they're both

584
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 1: better or stronger in different things, and so I don't

585
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: That said, I don't think Skyler will play chess because

586
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: I think he's scared to lose. Yeah, I actually think

587
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: he's avoiding it because he thinks he's going to get

588
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: a Skylar is definitely more competitive than two, but I think, well,

589
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: actually he is. He's not competitive. Roger and I are

590
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: not competitive, and I think our kids are not because

591
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: they keep asking us about sports, Like all these different

592
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: moms are like, are they going to do sports? And

593
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,719
Speaker 1: I are like, Wow, they are, But it's like I

594
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 1: think they do it for fun rather than like, have

595
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: you ever heard Skyler be like, Daddy, We've got to

596
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: win this game this today, Like he doesn't. He's in

597
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: it for the fun. Yeah, No, it doesn't for the socialization,

598
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 1: you know. But I also think that's a lot to

599
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: do with birth order. You know. I think that kaius

600
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 1: his personality if he was the older one and Skylar,

601
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 1: because Skylar, Hello, Skylar's needs attention. You know, he is

602
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 1: mister attention needder. So if he was the younger one

603
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: that needed the attention and Kais was the older one

604
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,960
Speaker 1: who would kind of could be in his own Kaias world,

605
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: I think it would be a much harder. But because

606
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: you know, because Skylar is always he really wants a

607
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 1: buddy around all the time. He's willing to take his

608
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,439
Speaker 1: brother as his buddy, if that makes sense. I think

609
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: as two young boys living in LA coming out of

610
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: a pandemic. You know, Skylar didn't see an electronic until

611
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: he was like eight or nine, forget like YouTube or

612
00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 1: any of these other like minecraft, robe box all that stuff, right,

613
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:06,839
Speaker 1: And I think that us, like so many parents who

614
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: were so against all of that, caved in the pandemic

615
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 1: because it was how boys, mostly boys, I found socialized

616
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: was through playing games with each other on Zoom and FaceTime.

617
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: Whatever that said. Now that we're back into a more

618
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: normal life, it's killing my soul that I'm fighting against

619
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,200
Speaker 1: an iPad and that that's the thing that's kind of lurking.

620
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: So what I found the other day was that I

621
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 1: found myself going, nobody touches an iPad or anything until

622
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:47,200
Speaker 1: homework is done, and what will happen over time, because

623
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: I remember being a teen and a tween and all that,

624
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: and the only thing that was an incentive or a

625
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 1: punishment was removing my phone, and so I know that

626
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: actually for Skylar, removing and ability to socialize is the thing.

627
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: So I less about incentivized to like give them something

628
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,759
Speaker 1: rather than if you don't keep up your schoolwork, your

629
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: grades and stay a good kid and good student, you

630
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:23,839
Speaker 1: lose the thing you care about most, because that's the

631
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: only kind of thing unless there's something that they're dying

632
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 1: for that it's like, this happens if you know, this

633
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: happens if right, like if you at the end of

634
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 1: the semester, if you this this this because Roger and

635
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: I we have done that, Like when we've gotten great

636
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 1: reports from their teachers. In the past, we would like

637
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: take them to the toy store, like pick something out,

638
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: We're so proud of you, or like, But I think

639
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:47,840
Speaker 1: that's a difference. It's a lot of verbal praise to

640
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 1: and I, oh, right, I think that at the end

641
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 1: of the day, you again, our kids don't need I know,

642
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: I know what people. I know people do do this.

643
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 1: And again it's not like I thought about it that much,

644
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: but it's something I probably wouldn't do. But you know,

645
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: there are people that are really like, oh, for every

646
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: a ring home, right, you get one hundred dollars for

647
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 1: every B I'm that and we never talked about this,

648
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: but but you know, for me, going to school and

649
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: getting good grades is like table stakes. That's your only job, right,

650
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: Their only job as kids is to be nice, don't

651
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 1: get in trouble at school, and get decent grade. I'm

652
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: not asking them. They bring home straight as you know.

653
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 1: So these are trying hard, you know, more pretty chill. Yeah,

654
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: we're very chill, but until we're not, so we're not.

655
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: But I think that at the end of the day,

656
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: that's you know, I see no reason nor what I

657
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 1: encourage paying my kid to go to school, and that's

658
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 1: ultimately what you're doing when you're giving them. Like I

659
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: guess you could say, well, when you go get a job,

660
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,240
Speaker 1: it teaches them that good job performance get more money.

661
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: But like, I don't know, I just think it's too

662
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: young for kids to be thinking that way than the

663
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,919
Speaker 1: stress and the pressure. It's also not it's that's that's

664
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 1: not a good look. I think to your point, I'm

665
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 1: going to use my sister as an example as a

666
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:09,400
Speaker 1: single mother, okay, who every single dollar she made for

667
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: the last fifteen years went to put her kids in

668
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 1: an amazing school, a private school, because they're both very

669
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: academic kids and she wanted them to be in a

670
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:23,479
Speaker 1: challenging environment. And because of that, without any incentive, her

671
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:28,319
Speaker 1: kids literally straight a students, both of them. And I

672
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: asked them once, like why do you do so well?

673
00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 1: Like I was just definitely never that motivated student. And

674
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: I remember Luke saying, my mom has worked so hard

675
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: to keep me here. The least I could do is

676
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 1: like my part, you know, and get good grades. And

677
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: I think what Roger and I have always said, at

678
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: least to Skylar, because Kay is obviously still a little young,

679
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 1: we said to sky a Sky, your life is going

680
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 1: to go really well for you if you stay a

681
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: great kid, be a good person, have empathy, and do

682
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: your schoolwork, be a good be a good student. And

683
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 1: that's it because we're like, that's all we ask of you, right,

684
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: So I think like over incentivising and kids giving their

685
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: kids money for AIDS, I mean, to me, that's not

686
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 1: really setting a great example. Well, I also think that

687
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: it's again right now and with the world the way

688
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: it is, is if you just say academic it's the

689
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: only chance, is the only measure of someone's success or

690
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,560
Speaker 1: someone's ability to function in this world. And I think

691
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:34,240
Speaker 1: you're obviously wrong. And I think a lot of people

692
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 1: talk about emotional IQ, and you know, emotional IQ is

693
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 1: just not you know, not necessarily Academics is just being

694
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: able to navigate the world around you. And I think

695
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 1: what Rachel and I are striving to do is give

696
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 1: our kids, you exposure, experience, compassion, all the things that

697
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:56,160
Speaker 1: you know turn into making them great kids. You know,

698
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 1: if you told me I had a great kid, but

699
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: they had to be average, like amazing, don't care, you know, literally,

700
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: don't care to be thrilled, you know, So don't tell

701
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 1: our kids. Thought, Well again, but great, kiddy, what does

702
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,720
Speaker 1: that mean? It means they have you know, they're they're happy,

703
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, that's the most important thing. The kids happy, obviously,

704
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 1: and then they're doing their part. And if they get

705
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: to be in there happy and whatever, then then that's

706
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: what they're doing their part in my opinion. Okay, so

707
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,240
Speaker 1: it's funny because in our law school, in our first school,

708
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 1: it's very funny because there was no uniform, and it

709
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:32,839
Speaker 1: made me crazy because I actually think, listen to each

710
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 1: his own. I think there's an argument for both sides, right.

711
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,920
Speaker 1: I mean, a style is a form of self expression,

712
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: and I'm all for it. But I really do strongly

713
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:45,799
Speaker 1: believe when I think about the stressers of my young

714
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: academic life, if funny enough was little to do with

715
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 1: school and more to do with oh my god, what

716
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 1: am I wearing? And did I wear this already this week?

717
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 1: And M so and so is not going to like this?

718
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 1: And there was so much mean all stuff and judgment

719
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. So I actually really

720
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: wished for my kids that they had uniform, because I

721
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 1: actually think uniform not to use, not to be so literal,

722
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 1: but like UNI, it really unifies everybody, and in my opinion,

723
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 1: really it creates a lack of judgment for on each other.

724
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 1: You can't make fun of a kid in a uniform.

725
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 1: If you're wearing a uniform, you can't. I think it

726
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,759
Speaker 1: takes away so much of the mean judgment the kids

727
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: are prone to make in school. They just are. Every

728
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 1: school has it. I've never heard of one that doesn't.

729
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,839
Speaker 1: Boys do it, girls do it. It's it's a thing.

730
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,240
Speaker 1: I was a victim of it, and you know, I really,

731
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:48,879
Speaker 1: I really wanted my kids to be in a place

732
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,840
Speaker 1: where there was no judgment at least on like the

733
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: superficial in terms of like, you know, what you were wearing.

734
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 1: And I actually dreamed of them having a uniform. So

735
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 1: we've now been almost two weeks into I'm wearing a

736
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,520
Speaker 1: uniform and I'm literally like, oh, should they wear a

737
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 1: light blue shirt or a white shirt or a navy shirt?

738
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: And should they wear a khaki shorts or navy shorts?

739
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 1: And honestly, it's life changing. It's life changing for me.

740
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 1: And you know, I think it's really funny because I

741
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: think most people are shocked that I think there should

742
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 1: be uniform in schools, and I just think, I don't know,

743
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 1: I just think there's no socioeconomic divide. I just think

744
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 1: it eliminates so much of the things that kids have

745
00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,480
Speaker 1: to deal with in school on top of the academics,

746
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: you know. So personally, I absolutely love it. I absolutely

747
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: love it. My advice for mom's dressing their kids every day,

748
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 1: I think if they're uniform, if uniform, if it's a

749
00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 1: uniform school, I think, you know, listen, mix and match,

750
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: make it as fun as you can. There's ways to

751
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 1: make uniform your own, especially for the girls, you know,

752
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: with their little like dresses and the skirts and the

753
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: socks and you know, I think, like the way you

754
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: wear your shirt as long as it's the code and whatever.

755
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: But I think, you know, there's ways to still have

756
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 1: individuality within a uniform. So I think that's fun. And

757
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,760
Speaker 1: then I think if it's a non uniform school, I think,

758
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: you know, in all fairness, like stay away from things

759
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 1: that have labels and things like that, because I just

760
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 1: I just think you have to think about all the kids,

761
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: you know. I think you have to think about the

762
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 1: kids that don't have, that have less. There's always going

763
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: to be a little bit of less people that have more,

764
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: people have labels, people that don't, people that won't what

765
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 1: the others wearing and don't you know. And I have

766
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 1: so many friends that are parents too, specifically girls, you know,

767
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 1: that deal with like wardrobe crisis on the daily. And

768
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 1: it's so much pressure on the parents and it's so

769
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,320
Speaker 1: much pressure financially to like keep up. And I think,

770
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:50,520
Speaker 1: you know, I think try and make it fun and

771
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:55,799
Speaker 1: be creative and you know, try to kind of detract

772
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,800
Speaker 1: from the importance of it in school. In my opinion,

773
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: the other amazing thing about September is the return of football. Yes,

774
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 1: the worst thing in that amazing American tradition of watching football. Well, Rachel,

775
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 1: lucky for you football. Do you mean Tom Brady? Well,

776
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is one of the players, as you know,

777
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 1: but it's hot, yes he is. But Rachel, we're digressing

778
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson that he's also quite good. You're just naming

779
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,279
Speaker 1: a few that I know us, Sweetie. You're really kind

780
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: of turning on only because of Sarah, kind of turning

781
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 1: out with his knowledge, just saying I only know him

782
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 1: because of his way. So Rachel, um and listeners, you know,

783
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: I don't know if you all have significant others that

784
00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: watch football, but it is just for people who enjoy it.

785
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 1: It's just so great. It's just only like it because

786
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 1: you have money on the game. Don't try light of Rachel.

787
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 1: I don't have money in the game, So they didn't

788
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,800
Speaker 1: know for the first like twenty years, didn't watch Rachel

789
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,759
Speaker 1: fantasy betting league. So you know what that means, well, exactly,

790
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,280
Speaker 1: you don't. You know, Rachel, you don't take the time

791
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:04,359
Speaker 1: an effort to because it's page fashion is so much

792
00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,360
Speaker 1: more interesting. I bet that there's a lot of women

793
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 1: out there that like put on like a little cute

794
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: jersey and make char there and like make chili are

795
00:45:12,680 --> 00:45:16,359
Speaker 1: the lumb and watch football with their husbands. Rachel, I

796
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 1: think we should have a foot Did you see Sierra

797
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 1: the met wearing that football dress that Peter Dundas designed,

798
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 1: paying homage to her husband's team and number, which I

799
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 1: believe is the three number three team Seahawks. It was amazing.

800
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 1: That was what you call a sexy, glamorous football jersey. Rachel,

801
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 1: Thank you Peter Dundas well. Maybe Rachel I got an

802
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: idea we could watch the Red Zone channel and you

803
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:48,240
Speaker 1: could opine on all the uniforms as across the screen.

804
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 1: That's the red zone, well, the red zone channels for

805
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,680
Speaker 1: people like me who actually have no patience watch entire

806
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:56,360
Speaker 1: games highlight highlights as a cliff notes. It's like football.

807
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, it's like cliff notes of the football games.

808
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,439
Speaker 1: It just switches from game to game as there's action happening, like, isa,

809
00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 1: get closer, score, just get hurt. That's the thing. There's

810
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 1: always a dude down on the ground. Yeah, it is

811
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: a very very um injurious sport. I worry. I don't know.

812
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:17,439
Speaker 1: Just go with it, Okay, I mean it isn't injury, yes,

813
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,000
Speaker 1: I think so. But anyway, like obviously our kids when

814
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,879
Speaker 1: we're playing football that SAIDs guy's playing flags. Well flag

815
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,600
Speaker 1: football is one thing. It's like non contact. But yeah,

816
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 1: contact sports not really great for for our children. I think. No,

817
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 1: I don't think soccer is a contact sport. I think

818
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 1: you can't make contact, but I don't think it's known

819
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:38,799
Speaker 1: as a contact sport where contact isn't allowed. Kind of

820
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: downe with like swimming, tennis, taekwondo, hockey and football contacts.

821
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: No football, no soccer, soccer, I'm okay with Yeah, I'm

822
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 1: okay with so well, but they are finding quite a

823
00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 1: bit of head injuries soccer from that from the headers.

824
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 1: Flag is not from those balls. Just basketball contact sport.

825
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: It is when you get someone driving on you and

826
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 1: you get thrown to the floor. But again, swimming, golf,

827
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:12,480
Speaker 1: Dennis likewondo, neurotic mother cannot bear it skiing, let's not

828
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: talking about that. What I means talk about that. I

829
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 1: just want to put them in helmets and bubbles and

830
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 1: call it a day. I can't take it. I just

831
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:23,120
Speaker 1: can't take it in any event. So I do enjoy

832
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 1: watching football and having like an afternoon to watch football

833
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 1: with my wife being occupied with gott knows what else

834
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,440
Speaker 1: is just it simply haven't And I think that everyone's

835
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,160
Speaker 1: listening that can understand that we just have an afternoon.

836
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 1: But just be clear, thirty years later, I'm not wearing

837
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:46,200

838
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,800
Speaker 1: a maxidress. Rachel. Actually, you know would even be a

839
00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,719
Speaker 1: better idea. Why didn't invite all my friends over it?

840
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 1: You know, why don't you go to a sports bar

841
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,200
Speaker 1: you could host a football game and cook for us.

842
00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,240
Speaker 1: Why don't you go find a field with a screen

843
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 1: to shit on and watch the game Rachel, and then

844
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,640

869

Speaker 1: a good. Um, We've been on a bit of an upswing.

870
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 1: I'm having some good times these days. UM, so maybe

871
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 1: I'll start with my highs and lows this week, Rat

872
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:48,000
Speaker 1: twent you think, sure, tack it off? Do it? So?

873
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:51,600
Speaker 1: Highlight this week is that you know, football season started.

874
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:56,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, and so watch football and look forward to

875
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:02,279
Speaker 1: something Monday. Like, honestly, like tonight doesn't suck because there's

876
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,840
Speaker 1: a football game on. I'm being honest when I say that,

877
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: and I know that everyone everyone will relate to me

878
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 1: on that. Um. Now I'm going to go to the

879
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:15,879
Speaker 1: low light. I'm this kid's school started, and if I'm

880
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,799
Speaker 1: not mistaken, when I used to go to school, I

881
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 1: had to be there were like eight thirty eight forty five,

882
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,600
Speaker 1: like school started more or less like by nine o'clock.

883
00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:27,720
Speaker 1: Do we live like in a farming village? Because why

884
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,120
Speaker 1: do we have to be at school at seven forty

885
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: in the morning. It just seems a little early. And

886
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:36,000
Speaker 1: then they come home and then it's like four hours

887
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 1: of daylight left. Can you maybe, um so, my lowlight

888
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 1: is I'm not getting in a lot of enough sleep here.

889
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:44,719
Speaker 1: I'm not going to change my whole, uh my whole

890
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 1: regiment if you will, right, Rache. I mean it's so early,

891
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,320
Speaker 1: it's crazy. But but by the way high school, I

892
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 1: heard seven h five or no. I think they had

893
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:56,400
Speaker 1: to be the bus at seven h five? Is that?

894
00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: What was Julia? Yeah, seven or five bus to go. Yeah,

895
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 1: here's the thing. I haven't used an alarm in ten years,

896
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:08,080
Speaker 1: except if we were catching an early flight, because Skylar

897
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 1: specifically has woken me up before six o'clock every single day.

898
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:18,320
Speaker 1: Now by Murphy's law, the kids seemingly want to sleep

899
00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:24,479
Speaker 1: till seven, and I'm waking them up in the dark before. Yeah,

900
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:25,960
Speaker 1: waking up in the dark. By the way, as soon

901
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 1: as they do daylight savings, it's going to be I

902
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:33,560
Speaker 1: just okay, it's question. Can I just say something? Can

903
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 1: we make an appeal on daylight savings? I really believe,

904
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 1: and listeners please put your vote in. I think we

905
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 1: should really start a campaign to not have daylight savings.

906
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: Rie this has been going on for but nobody lights it.

907
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:56,080
Speaker 1: Nobody wants it. I mean, originally I think it was

908
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 1: for farmers, and the farmers don't want it. I spoke

909
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 1: to them. You know, Arizona, I think is the only state.

910
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 1: I think it's Arizona, maybe Hawaii or last somebody somebody

911
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 1: else doesn't do it. There's a couple of states that

912
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:11,880
Speaker 1: don't observe. I want a campaign for the state of

913
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:16,319
Speaker 1: California that we do not adhere to the guidelines of

914
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,799
Speaker 1: daylight savings time. Well, because parents, that means you're up

915
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:23,400
Speaker 1: an hour earlier, it's darker earlier. Life has already depressed.

916
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 1: Get a twinter, let's just not make it worse. Well,

917
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 1: maybe you should run for governor. You know there was

918
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 1: I'm definitely not doing that. Let's just be clear. Politics

919
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 1: is definitely not my calling. I've never been more clear

920
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 1: about any Let's go out, Nope, not unless we're talking

921
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:44,640
Speaker 1: about fashion. No. My highlight is I'm finally not sick anymore,

922
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 1: as you may have heard on our last podcast. Yeah,

923
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:53,400
Speaker 1: I was literally non COVID sick for almost three weeks

924
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:57,640
Speaker 1: with a sinus infection that never ended, and I forgot

925
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 1: what it felt like to actually feel normal and not

926
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,279
Speaker 1: congested and not It was really I had been sick

927
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 1: in three or four years, like sick, and it was

928
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 1: the craziest thing ever. So my highlight is that I

929
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:12,520
Speaker 1: feel normal, because I think when you're sick for a while,

930
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 1: you actually forget what it's like to like wake up

931
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 1: and feel normal. It's weird. So my highlight is that.

932
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:24,839
Speaker 1: My low light, I think is the new beginning of

933
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 1: the day for someone like me who goes to sleep

934
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: at ungodly hours because my alone time starts at like

935
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,880
Speaker 1: nine or ten, that I just hold on to it

936
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:35,839
Speaker 1: and don't go to sleep until like one or two

937
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 1: and then waking up by like five forty five to

938
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: then week the kids up. It's like it's like a

939
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,839
Speaker 1: whole thing. It's just a whole different thing coming off

940
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 1: the last year and a half. So I'm readjusting like you.

941
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 1: So that's a negative because I definitely feel like tired

942
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:55,000
Speaker 1: the whole day, you know. Yeah. So yeah, that's that's

943
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 1: my highs and lows for this week. But feeling very

944
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 1: grateful that our kids are in school are pretty These

945
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:03,520
Speaker 1: are not serious life problems, these are just these are

946
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:08,560
Speaker 1: just formal complaints. I think, Hi funking, I wish you
