Welcome to the podcast. 00:01:17 Speaker 5: Thank you, thanks for having us. 00:01:19 Speaker 2: You've come all the way from the West Side. Do you have did you drive together or separately? 00:01:23 Speaker 3: We drove separately. Oh, interesting because we are enemies in real life and this is all fair. 00:01:29 Speaker 2: So much, just a bunch of Hollywood. 00:01:31 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what this is. Nobody's real friends in real life fighting each other. What you're talking about? 00:01:38 Speaker 2: I believe that? Actually. Okay, so you drove separately, but you live close to each other. 00:01:44 Speaker 3: We do. 00:01:44 Speaker 2: So what's this decision about. 00:01:47 Speaker 3: Well, Teresa was visiting somebody. 00:01:50 Speaker 5: Yeah, that sounds very like ominous. 00:01:52 Speaker 3: I didn't know whether she had to commit a murder on her way here, and I didn't want to witness it because then I'm an accessory. 00:01:59 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, but no, no, it is because we hate each other, truly. 00:02:03 Speaker 3: No, No, we carpolled most of the time. 00:02:05 Speaker 2: I do. 00:02:06 Speaker 5: Actually, we should have carpolled this time. 00:02:08 Speaker 3: We could have. Well, we couldn't have because of the task. 00:02:11 Speaker 2: You wanted to expose yourselves as climate criminals. It's the real thing. 00:02:15 Speaker 5: Well, I saw I drive an electric car. Cherry is a gas guzzling rolla. 00:02:21 Speaker 3: My apologies. 00:02:22 Speaker 2: So Teresa's murdering people, Cherry is ruining the environment. Yes, you're both doing your part. 00:02:28 Speaker 3: We're trying. Yeah, yeah, exactly. We don't have kids, so it's fine. 00:02:31 Speaker 2: Oh yeah you can. You have children. You truly can do whatever you need. 00:02:34 Speaker 3: The world is our garbage. 00:02:36 Speaker 2: Can When you two are driving together, music wise, do you how does that work? 00:02:42 Speaker 5: Oh? 00:02:42 Speaker 3: You have a good I feel like you have a good playlist. 00:02:44 Speaker 5: No, I usually I have like a little bit of I mean, you obviously have your hairy styles. 00:02:49 Speaker 3: Yes, number one, I do, I do, I do, and I do have a best of one direction playlist as well. It hits the hits only. 00:02:54 Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, mine is very like top forty. I'm I'm like famously bad at music. 00:03:00 Speaker 2: Oh sure, famously Like. 00:03:02 Speaker 5: I'm like, people are like, oh, do you like music? I'm like, I guess. 00:03:05 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:03:05 Speaker 3: Didn't you write a paper once? On? Like back that ass up? Though? Did I make that up? 00:03:09 Speaker 5: I didn't write a paper, but I did bring it to my high school as like as a homework as a homework. Yeah, but again I'm not. I'm not. 00:03:17 Speaker 3: I'm not good at music? 00:03:19 Speaker 2: Is the thing? You just wanted everyone to hear back that ass up? Or was like we're breaking it down? 00:03:23 Speaker 5: Yeah, we were like breaking it was basically I think the music t shirts said like, hey, bring in like the best song you've ever heard? 00:03:30 Speaker 2: Oh, And I brought him. 00:03:31 Speaker 5: Back that ass up as one as one would. Yeah. 00:03:36 Speaker 2: I feel like bringing music into display to people, especially in high school, is you're absolutely putting a target on your back. There's no way that's going to work. 00:03:43 Speaker 3: Out, It's true. Yeah it was a mean ament. 00:03:45 Speaker 5: Actually yeah yeah in retrospect, but. 00:03:47 Speaker 3: Did people think you were cool or did a backfire or. 00:03:49 Speaker 5: What I I think it was okay, but it was also no. I mean I think you know, like when you're trying so hard, right, of course, I feel like everyone saw through it. 00:03:59 Speaker 2: A little bit. You're a dork, just admit it. Yeah, this plant is right in the way I'm removing the planet. 00:04:04 Speaker 5: I feel like, I like, yeah, there was Yeah, I was like, it felt very shy between two friends. 00:04:11 Speaker 3: Oh, it's true. 00:04:12 Speaker 2: I want to start a podcast where I'm entirely in a bush and the guest doesn't have to look at me. 00:04:16 Speaker 3: You could do that now, just run around behind the thing. 00:04:18 Speaker 2: It's called stover here. Yeah. Even now, if I'm like, if I have music on in the car, I'm so aware of the other person. Songs will feel like they're fifty minutes long. When another person's in the car. 00:04:30 Speaker 3: I'm like, just the flops wet. 00:04:32 Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:04:33 Speaker 2: Real. 00:04:34 Speaker 3: They're like looking over at you when it comes on and like. 00:04:37 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, this is what you're in two okay, all right. But I'm very sensitive about it. I'm like, it's a little uh. I need the music to be at the right volume when I'm driving with another of the guests. It's almost like having art in your home. It's like, oh, they're here to judge what I'm doing. 00:04:51 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's true. 00:04:52 Speaker 2: It's a real reflection on character or something. Maybe I need to just let it go. 00:04:56 Speaker 3: Or only drive alone from now on, just be incredibly anti social. Oh I can't give you a ride anywhere. I mean, I'm a bad friend. 00:05:03 Speaker 2: I'm into that. I think I could do that. 00:05:05 Speaker 5: We're just like sort of you know, like white noise. Oh, put them to sleep. 00:05:09 Speaker 3: You know, does anyone ever do that? They put like a white noise machine in their car? Thoughts. 00:05:13 Speaker 2: That feels dangerous, right, I. 00:05:14 Speaker 3: Feels very dangerous. YEA long to sleep, Yeah. 00:05:18 Speaker 2: I don't need any encouragement. And falling asleep at the wheel. Yeah, I once did fall asleep at the wheel for just a little second. 00:05:25 Speaker 3: Did you It was it like a oh I went to the side and I heard a rumple strip or something. 00:05:29 Speaker 2: Then I like it. It was like a swerve and then back away. Yeah, yeah it was. It was after a long day, yeah, and tense, unhappy day, and the other passenger, uh had exhausted me and I fell asleep at the. 00:05:43 Speaker 5: Oh wow, well that's their fault. 00:05:45 Speaker 2: I'm blaming him for sure. Ye have either of you ever had any sort of falling asleep behind the wheel situation? 00:05:51 Speaker 3: Oh no, I mean I think you're a very safe driver. I think I'm just I'm just like, I'm like, I'm too paranoid. 00:05:56 Speaker 2: You don't mean you're like a conservative safe driver or like an accurate safe forever because I'm I'm servative and dangerous. 00:06:02 Speaker 3: Oh really, I know. 00:06:03 Speaker 5: I don't. Yeah, no, I don't. 00:06:04 Speaker 3: I wouldn't say I'm a conservative, like like I'm too slow something, but I do sometime. Here's I guess this is the opposite. I feel like there was a window of time where you called me off for just not having my music on in the car at all, just like not distracted because my you know, like my parents, you know, whenever we were trying to like drive somewhere and then we were almost there, but they need to turn the radio down. It's like because it's distracting. So now I'm like like as like you know what i mean, I'm like, oh, I'm trying to get to the house. Let me turn the radio down so I'm not distracted. 00:06:30 Speaker 2: So the entire journey for you is joyless. 00:06:33 Speaker 3: Like I feel like one time I was driving silently or what, I don't know what it was. Were you in the car? I don't know, you were like where's the music? 00:06:39 Speaker 5: I feel like what it was because it's funny something I never like, where's the music? 00:06:45 Speaker 3: I called out how I was maybe? Oh, maybe it was like I was like I'd pulled over to take a phone call, which one you know can do as opposed to like driving with the phone. 00:06:55 Speaker 5: Maybe it was that, well, you never hooked up your bluetoothe your car. 00:06:59 Speaker 3: That's what I That's what I'm saying. Things are separate, you know what I'm saying, like I'm driving or I'm bluetoothing. 00:07:06 Speaker 5: See that to me, I definitely called you out on that because I think that's wild. 00:07:10 Speaker 2: I don't know, like as far as maps and everything, that feels like a bad idea. 00:07:14 Speaker 3: I can get a map, but it just there's that thing that plungs into the. 00:07:16 Speaker 2: Oh you're using USB or okay, well it's like a white Sorry, I love a Corol. 00:07:25 Speaker 5: This an excellent car, very safe car. 00:07:28 Speaker 2: Sure Teresa? What are you driving? 00:07:30 Speaker 5: I drive a Volvo? Oh also a save electric Volvo. 00:07:33 Speaker 2: And they called something else. It's like a Poldar. 00:07:35 Speaker 5: No, that's a pole Star. Is the other Poldar the detective or something like? 00:07:41 Speaker 3: Isn't that like a sexy PBS man or something? 00:07:47 Speaker 5: I drive a sexy PBS man. Actually, you know it's a it's just a Volvo. 00:07:52 Speaker 2: Oh interesting. So what is Polestar? 00:07:54 Speaker 5: I think that's their other brand of But that's an all electric. But it's not the. 00:08:00 Speaker 2: Same identity crisis exactly, huge identity, very confusing. Okay, Swedish car, Yeah that's right. What other country did I think that was from? Maybe Germany? Finish? 00:08:12 Speaker 5: Finish? 00:08:13 Speaker 3: Oh? 00:08:13 Speaker 4: Do they make this. 00:08:16 Speaker 2: Finland? 00:08:16 Speaker 3: They made nothing in Finland? No, they made I have no idea. Oh okay, yeah, yeah. 00:08:21 Speaker 2: Did you? Speaking of Finland? Is the movie called c SU. Have you heard of this movie? 00:08:24 Speaker 3: Yes? Yes, I have not seen it, but I want to see it because it's very milly. You've seen it? 00:08:29 Speaker 2: Yes, I didn't know anything about it going in, literally even see the trailer. I said. My friends are like, we're going to see this movie, and I've never done this before. I just said, oh, I'm just going to go see it and see what happens. And it was that movie, which is I feel like crazily. 00:08:42 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:08:43 Speaker 5: Wait, did you enjoy it? 00:08:44 Speaker 2: I loved it? 00:08:45 Speaker 3: Okay, great? Great? Like is that like, is that the kind of movie that you would have picked to go to yourself had you see the trailer? Yeah? 00:08:51 Speaker 2: I mean I'm pretty omnivorous as far as movie going go, so I think it probably would have crossed my radar at some point. But it's, uh, it's not for the squeamish. No. 00:09:02 Speaker 5: Again, I think a movie you would know. 00:09:03 Speaker 1: I know. 00:09:04 Speaker 3: I saw that. I was like, oh, this is like a different kind of John Wick. It's like a guy just going nuts killing people. Great, sign me up. 00:09:10 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's a lot of Nazis just getting their heads, like truly crushed to smithering incredible. You can complain about that, Yeah, he can. I mean I can't imagine Indiana Jones is doing the same thing. 00:09:21 Speaker 3: Probably not. 00:09:22 Speaker 2: It takes it too easy. 00:09:23 Speaker 3: On thirteen to get the widest audience. 00:09:25 Speaker 2: I think probably yeah, absolutely, yeah, but he should. They should do a hard r Indiana Jones. I mean, especially now that he's eighty years old. 00:09:33 Speaker 3: Let's see it. 00:09:34 Speaker 2: Yeah, just crushing these people. Why are we talking about ce? So we were talking about Volvos that. 00:09:39 Speaker 5: Then fin came up somehow, Yeah, incorrectly. 00:09:43 Speaker 2: Obviously correcting me on my own podcast. So cool. Yeah, how are you too doing? The movie is not out. 00:09:51 Speaker 3: It's out today. It'll be out tomorrow technically, but there's some there's early screenings today, so we kind of had been like, it. 00:09:57 Speaker 2: Feels like it's out well and is a correction. Once this is out, it's certainly in theaters and hopefully people have already seen it. 00:10:06 Speaker 5: A huge. 00:10:10 Speaker 3: That's the mystery. 00:10:11 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the thing that we're totally spiraling about. 00:10:15 Speaker 2: Oh I can imagine them, absolute pressure. 00:10:17 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're looking at you very tired people. 00:10:19 Speaker 2: Are you just doing NonStop press for this? 00:10:21 Speaker 3: It's not well, I mean it's it's I mean, we've done some and the actors are handling most of it, but like we are doing here rest saying whatever. But like we we I mean we've got like Google docs, we've got like like spreadsheets, we've got you know, we're just trying. Like it's we're now we're just being driven insane by literally the numbers. Because it's like we've gotten nice reviews, which is nice, right, but obviously you know it's Hollywood, so money. So now when we get to spiral about money. 00:10:47 Speaker 2: And when did those numbers start coming in? Like midnight Friday or something. 00:10:51 Speaker 5: I think these are coming in Friday, like midday, yeah, earlier. 00:10:55 Speaker 3: Yeah, I could handle that twenty four hours from now. Again, we who knows even where we're going to be our snows. 00:11:01 Speaker 5: We think we made a good movie. Yes, And it doesn't matter if people don't see it. It's fun, we made a good movie. It's hard. Happiness shouldn't be dependent on this movie. 00:11:10 Speaker 2: I've said this to be a million to myself a million times. 00:11:13 Speaker 5: Guys. 00:11:13 Speaker 3: The win was even getting it made, because it's so hard to even make a movie. Oh my god. 00:11:18 Speaker 2: And all of that is objectively true, but it does not matter for your feelings. 00:11:22 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, well we'll see, we'll see what we're we're. 00:11:24 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna do just fine. It's like a big crowd pleasing movie. It's yeah, it looks funny and you know, exciting. What can people hope so ask for? Yeah? 00:11:33 Speaker 3: I don't yeah, people, we again, we literally don't know whether we need to be mad at people or happy about it yet, so we don't. 00:11:38 Speaker 2: Assume both, right, let's act both. 00:11:41 Speaker 3: Yes, Okay, thank you people, side Okay, which side do you want? I guess I thank the people. So my side is we were a success and your side is you're angry. 00:11:50 Speaker 5: Okay, okay, so you go first. 00:11:51 Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks everyone for coming to see our movie and making it a huge hit. 00:11:55 Speaker 5: Fuck you guys all. The movie is good. Actually, go and see it. What are you doing in your home? Was waiting for Barbie to come out? Come on, you dumb shit? 00:12:05 Speaker 2: Perfect? And now I will announce joy Ride too, and that's my job. Coming to theaters in October. It's gonna be a quick turn. 00:12:13 Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, Okay, we'll. 00:12:15 Speaker 2: Get the writer's strike will end and we'll have about a week for the movie to be made. Outside of all of that, what's happening with your lives? 00:12:25 Speaker 3: Long? The longest satis long silence? Oh, Teresa has been getting into pickleball? 00:12:33 Speaker 5: Oh not really. I feel embarrassed about it. I feel embarrassed about it because I I play squash and I've been learning how to play tennis, and pickleball is like the sort of like Bastard's child of both those things, because it's like, you know, it's really easy, but it's also kind of fun, so so. 00:12:51 Speaker 2: You feel like you're like doing like the like cheap thing. 00:12:55 Speaker 5: Yeah, it just doesn't you know. It's like it's a it's fun, but it's it's not hard. 00:13:00 Speaker 2: So you're a snob. 00:13:01 Speaker 5: I'm a snob. I'm absolutely I'm a racket sports snob for sure. 00:13:06 Speaker 2: That's fine. I think more people should be snobs. 00:13:08 Speaker 5: Oh I'm yes, I must not. 00:13:10 Speaker 2: I think for snobs need to take a little more control over society. 00:13:13 Speaker 1: Again. 00:13:14 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what, we should be proud to be snobs, especially about racket sports. But no, I enjoy pickleball. It's an easy sport. You can have a drink in your hand while playing. 00:13:23 Speaker 3: I didn't know that. 00:13:24 Speaker 5: Yeah, because it's so easy. 00:13:26 Speaker 3: Wait, literally, like people just will have a drinking. 00:13:28 Speaker 5: I think the people who really play pickleball are really into it. They would hate Okay I'm saying, but you could do it. Anyone, anyone could do it, because not me? 00:13:38 Speaker 2: Are you not? 00:13:39 Speaker 5: Are you not coordinated? 00:13:40 Speaker 2: Oh my god. 00:13:43 Speaker 3: I tried to play schoolash with her once and she basically was. 00:13:45 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, never again, you have wasted my time. 00:13:49 Speaker 3: I honestly I really did. 00:13:50 Speaker 2: It's sad. 00:13:51 Speaker 5: But see, that's the thing about us is like we have totally different skill sets. It's true, and so that's how it works. 00:13:58 Speaker 2: Oh, sure, there's no real petition between you two, because it's just like a clear difference in everything. That's true. 00:14:04 Speaker 3: But yeah, that's absolutely yeah, that's correct because you. 00:14:07 Speaker 5: Like dance and dance I enjoy. 00:14:11 Speaker 3: I enjoy a baked good. 00:14:12 Speaker 2: Yes, sure, you and I are on a very similar wa okay, okay, so we would get in a big fight. 00:14:18 Speaker 3: Oh yes, we would. Rival. That makes me sad. 00:14:21 Speaker 2: I'm always looking for right now, dance and bake off? 00:14:25 Speaker 3: Oh my god. 00:14:26 Speaker 2: Interesting. 00:14:26 Speaker 3: You know what I'm not mad at it? 00:14:28 Speaker 2: The Great British Dance Off. 00:14:29 Speaker 3: Yes, okay, let's do. 00:14:32 Speaker 2: It, Teresa, you can't dance. 00:14:34 Speaker 5: No. I am a passionate mover, as one of our friends likes to say, he's a passion mover, and I'm co opting that to say that as well, even though I'm never moving to anything because again I don't like music. 00:14:47 Speaker 3: So it was a problem silently to nothing. 00:14:53 Speaker 2: Yes, speaking of racket sports, I think it was last week's episode we were talking about badminton. What's your take on badminton? 00:15:00 Speaker 5: Love it? 00:15:01 Speaker 2: Love it? Okay, I like badminton? Yeah, Oh, do you like badminton. 00:15:05 Speaker 3: That's the one where it looks like it's like a triangle. 00:15:07 Speaker 2: With a little ball floats through the air. 00:15:10 Speaker 3: I don't I've never played. I wouldn't know. I mean, I'm sure I'm bad at it. 00:15:14 Speaker 2: I could recommend it as a person who's bad at that. 00:15:17 Speaker 5: Really, I think if you like badminton, you'll like pickleball, really because it's very slow. You're hitting a whiffle ball. I do you like ping pong? 00:15:26 Speaker 2: I've never completed a game of ping pong, and I think it's because I'm my coordination is deadly bad. 00:15:33 Speaker 5: Interesting. Wow, So now now I'm curious for you to try pickleball, because I feel like, if you like badminton, pickleball is sort of in that vein. 00:15:43 Speaker 2: Yeah, if the ball is moving slowly, I think I can at least try. I'm not like horrified the entire time, right, but I'm scared. Oh on a, Lisa's showing me this is pickleball. 00:15:54 Speaker 4: Does it? 00:15:54 Speaker 3: Does it feel good? 00:15:56 Speaker 5: It looks? 00:15:56 Speaker 3: Do you have to? Yeah? 00:15:58 Speaker 5: You're you're holding like basic what's the equivalent of like a cutting board, and you're hitting a whiffle ball back and forth. Wait, and now it's a quote unquote a sport like it's wooden. No, no, it's not wooden, but it just looks like it looks like a cutting were it. 00:16:10 Speaker 3: Looks does have like strings on it or anyth it. 00:16:12 Speaker 2: Doesn't have strings. Oh it's a full paddle, yeah, like an attack weapon. 00:16:16 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. 00:16:18 Speaker 2: I just, for the first time in my life, played an entire game of pool. Oh my god, I was mortified. It where it's like, I believe another person is seeing me do this, so embarrassing. 00:16:31 Speaker 3: But you made it all the way to the end. Well because oh also, wait, when one person is really good at pool, don't they just kind of like do the whole thing and then it's over. 00:16:39 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then I feel bad for the other person and let them like kind of slowly. And then I think I probably eventually was like, just let me push these in because. 00:16:46 Speaker 5: Did you hit a ball in? 00:16:47 Speaker 2: Though I think I may have, I don't want to say for sure, because it was bad. 00:16:52 Speaker 3: It was I'm also you know, it's hard. That's hard. 00:16:55 Speaker 2: It's surprisingly hard. Yeah, you feel so awkward at the stick totally like it kind of demands that you look cool, which is a hard thing for me to do. In any situation there's like leaning require Yeah, I just felt so stupid. I don't think I'll ever try it again. 00:17:11 Speaker 3: I don't think i've played and I can't remember the last time I've played pool. 00:17:14 Speaker 2: Do either of you bowl? 00:17:16 Speaker 5: No, I'm. 00:17:18 Speaker 3: No, I'm not good at it, but I think it's so fun. 00:17:21 Speaker 2: I've recently embraced bowling because I was like, oh, I'm not good at of it. Who cares? 00:17:25 Speaker 3: No, But it's fun. 00:17:25 Speaker 2: Yeah. That's sitting around with friends throwing a thing. 00:17:27 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, this is so great because you guys agree on this, and I'm like, you have to put your feet into other people's shoes. 00:17:37 Speaker 3: Well, these shoes. 00:17:38 Speaker 5: Have been worn by eight million people in the world, and all they do is spray a little something to like. 00:17:45 Speaker 3: Oh, okay, it's a hygiene It's literally strictly a hygiene. 00:17:48 Speaker 5: Thing that and then you put your little fingers in these little holes that other people put their fingers into, and it's just like oh and then and then you have to roll it down. I hated everything about bowling. 00:17:59 Speaker 3: I hate Oh my god, I'm sorry, wait what okay, so you also hate the like, for instance, if you could get like a complete like everything is a brand new like we have just manufactured these shoes and this ball for you. You wouldn't like that either. 00:18:12 Speaker 5: That's interesting, like like literally I wouldn't hate that as much, right like you like, but I'm also hearing about at Precision Sports you. 00:18:20 Speaker 3: Can just I mean, you're supposed to like you can get those things on the side. 00:18:25 Speaker 2: You know, You're just that's your problem. 00:18:28 Speaker 5: I don't like doing things that I'm bad at. I'm that kind of psychopathic. 00:18:32 Speaker 2: Okay, I wish I was that person. 00:18:34 Speaker 5: Well, I mean it's hard for me to find any hobbies. 00:18:37 Speaker 3: Oh wait, can I wait? Can I now? I ask this because it's like, now we've decided that like you guys are opposites. Do you like like uh like games like like where you have to like lie? Do you know what I mean? Like or what's the one that I like completely fucked up? Because I was like, I made eye contact with someone was like hello, it was like, you know what I mean, Mafia, Mafia. I'm so bad at things like that, you know what I mean? But I feel like she's very good at those things. 00:19:01 Speaker 2: I like Mafia. I'm not that great at it, but I enjoyed just the general tension and chaos. 00:19:06 Speaker 3: Oh see, I can't. 00:19:07 Speaker 2: I'm like, ah, I like that, you get you're allowed to lie. That's a fun thing. 00:19:12 Speaker 3: That's me stressed, like tension and chaos I'm having. I'm trying to have a nice night out with a group of friends, and they're like, let's all lie to each other. I'm just like, I'm like, I'm I'm saying it. Yeah. 00:19:22 Speaker 5: I love like screaming at a friend's face, being like you're the mafia. 00:19:25 Speaker 2: Yeah, but then when you're wrong, what a feeling. Oh humiliating, But you know what, it humbles you of course, So I think you need that especially I'm such a snob. Wow. Well yeah, bowling, I don't mind. And I like to wear the fun little shoes, just like it's a little bit of a rented style for the night. Why not think of it that way? I think of sharing with humanity. 00:19:53 Speaker 5: Yes, all the foot sweat ever exuded through the toes is now being like put into your body as well. How nice. 00:20:03 Speaker 2: Now you're seeing. Okay, So we're on all sorts of different pages about sports, and that's fine. That's kind of a good thing about being a human. We don't all have the same opinion on party sports. These are kind of party sports. Is that what you call them? Social sports? 00:20:20 Speaker 4: Yeah? 00:20:20 Speaker 3: Yeah, like a group activity. 00:20:21 Speaker 2: Group activities, group activity. I'm okay with a group activity if it's not pool. 00:20:26 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're we're on the same page about pool. 00:20:29 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're all we're all like, pool is mid You're like, yeah, overrating. 00:20:39 Speaker 2: Yeah, you feel like you're getting in everyone's way. I don't know what are we talking about? This is what we should talk about. I was really excited to have you two here today. I was very excited. I thought they're both so funny, they're lovely. We're gonna have a nice day in the backyard. We'll record it all for everyone to enjoy and move on. So it was a little surprised the podcast is called I said, no gifts. I imagine you've received emails, et cetera about the podcast. So I was a little surprised to walk back here and see that you had brought something in a gift bag. This is a gift for me. 00:21:15 Speaker 3: Yes it is, Yes, it is. Yep, it's got your name on it. 00:21:18 Speaker 2: Oh interesting, Oh wow, how insulting? Okay, Well, I mean it's here. It's in a kind of white bag. I mean, let's be honest, a gorgeous bag. We can all admit this is a gorgeous bag. 00:21:30 Speaker 5: A gorgeous bag that is a holiday themed actually very neutral holidays. 00:21:37 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, if you pay attention, Yeah, you're right, it's underratedly this is kind of going into. 00:21:44 Speaker 2: The bag holiday, well holiday or not? Should I open it here on the podcast? 00:21:51 Speaker 5: I think I think should yes, yes. 00:22:13 Speaker 2: Okay, Cherry has written my name on it, and you said, do you have the worst handwriting. 00:22:16 Speaker 3: In the world's I think that's nice you read it. Okay, good. 00:22:19 Speaker 2: I think it's a very casual, low key way to write my name cash. I think writing lowercase letters that look like an adult wrote them, it's very hard, and I think you did that correctly. So okay, now it's a not so on a least. We hold the mic here, let's see this is it? 00:22:36 Speaker 3: This is you turn into a group project? Oh yeah, no, I mean if you need to do you need to see see your. 00:22:41 Speaker 4: Way in time? 00:22:41 Speaker 2: I have to. I'm not going to rip the bag. I'll be right back. 00:22:44 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm back. 00:23:18 Speaker 2: This is It's been a long time since I've had to cut something open on this podcast. So this is it's like a ribbon cutting ceremony. Here we go. Not imagine this is a grand opening, instructible sniffing. Wow, he's going have to keep going. Okay, there we go. All right. Now I'm reaching in and there's a box concealing it. Further pushing. Oh now it's it is a bakery box. But I'm not going to make any assumptions until I've opened the box. Oh it is baked goods. Because sometimes on this podcast people will bring a thing and I'm like, oh, it's that thing, and then it's now. 00:23:56 Speaker 3: We went straight ahead. Here's what it is. 00:24:00 Speaker 2: I've never been to eighty five degrees Celsius bakery. 00:24:03 Speaker 3: Oh my god. 00:24:03 Speaker 2: I've always been curious. But the eighty five to me has always been like that seems cold. But of course it's. 00:24:08 Speaker 5: Celsius, right, yes, right, the sea right meaning Celsius. But I think, and again, this is one of those like fahrenheit versus Celsius questions the right which Celsius is crazy? 00:24:18 Speaker 2: Right, It's a bad measurement. 00:24:21 Speaker 5: It's a bad measurement system. 00:24:22 Speaker 3: Don't get it. 00:24:22 Speaker 2: It feels limited or something, right. 00:24:25 Speaker 3: It is there's like less numbers, yeah. 00:24:27 Speaker 5: Yeah, because like oh no, it's so hot today it's thirty. 00:24:30 Speaker 3: Like, no, you only go up to one hundred because you can't have higher numbers than boiling things. 00:24:36 Speaker 2: Eighty five must be like four hundred degrees or fahrenheit or something. 00:24:40 Speaker 5: It's hot. 00:24:40 Speaker 3: Wait in the of the bakery. I want to say, they're like the eighty five degrees celsius is like a good temperature for coffee. Did I make that? 00:24:46 Speaker 2: Oh? Interesting? I don't know. 00:24:48 Speaker 3: So I feel like it's hot, but double again, I could be lying. 00:24:51 Speaker 2: I'm not sure that makes more sense because when I said four hundred degrees fahrenheit, I can't be that far away. 00:24:56 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't, but maybe I mean it's like a. 00:24:59 Speaker 2: Guess and then we'll have on aalise, Okay, figure it out. I'm gonna stand by four hundred degrees fahrenheit. 00:25:05 Speaker 3: If I if what I said is correct, then coffee should be hot but not boiling, so like two hundred. 00:25:12 Speaker 5: I don't know, Okay, I'm gonna say. I'm going to say. 00:25:14 Speaker 2: Three sixty three sixty Oh, that's a like a you know, twenty five okay, three twenty five okay, on a lease, yes, between one hundred and eighty and one hundred and eighty five degrees. 00:25:24 Speaker 3: Oh wow, okay, cherry that is coffee. 00:25:27 Speaker 2: Then that sounds right for you. We're not baking a good eighty five degrees, that's just defrosting it. Yes, wow, okay. Well, now that we've educated everybody and ourselves, tell me about why you brought baked goods today. 00:25:41 Speaker 5: Well, these are Asian. 00:25:43 Speaker 2: Asian baked goods. 00:25:44 Speaker 3: Yes, and we're Asian. 00:25:45 Speaker 2: There are a lot of good Asian baked goods. 00:25:47 Speaker 3: I know there are. Yes, we sound Asian. 00:25:50 Speaker 5: There are a lot of good Asian baked goods. 00:25:52 Speaker 3: Yes. 00:25:52 Speaker 5: We love a dessert and Asian dessert. Sure, and figured you know, just like we can go through the gamut of Asian things as we. 00:26:03 Speaker 3: Are as we are Asian. But there's some savories in here. They have options. They love that for you. 00:26:12 Speaker 2: Are they the sort of bakery where you have the tongs and the tray? Yes, I love. I lose control, oh no, one, because the tray is big, is way too big. 00:26:20 Speaker 3: There's a lot of things that can go on it. 00:26:22 Speaker 2: I'm not just putting one cookie on that thing. It looks insane. 00:26:24 Speaker 5: Oh no, you can't. It's legal. 00:26:27 Speaker 2: So you went through and did you pick these for any particular reason or well, these are the best ones. 00:26:31 Speaker 5: These are in my opinion, because this is like a Taiwanese bakery and there's just you know, there's an egg tart of course, right, it's a traution dessert. There's like the little one, the little hot dog one that is the savor, so that's always. There's a pork bun, which is like when you have like you know, if you have a kanji and you have like the shredded oh yeah, of course thing on it seems really gross but actually is good. And then we've got a macha red bean roll. 00:27:02 Speaker 2: This is so which is it's like almost like a Swiss roller. 00:27:05 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, which seems like a weird combination. So it was more that one it was just for color. 00:27:10 Speaker 2: Interest, But do you stand by its taste? 00:27:13 Speaker 4: I don't know. 00:27:14 Speaker 5: I actually haven't had it, so curious. And then the other one it's just like a. 00:27:18 Speaker 2: Milk, a milk but oh just like a soft But these are so good? Why did I eat lunch? Do we all want to try them? What should how should we do? 00:27:26 Speaker 4: Whatever? 00:27:26 Speaker 3: You want? 00:27:28 Speaker 4: I know? 00:27:28 Speaker 2: And with this many different options on at least what do you think? I mean? I kind of want to try the one that. 00:27:34 Speaker 3: Didn't because I haven't tried nobody. Oh my god, can we do a little. 00:27:39 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to go for another sharp ob. 00:27:41 Speaker 3: Okay, check you could do the scissors. 00:27:44 Speaker 5: We just scissor it. 00:27:45 Speaker 3: Yeah? Whatever this? Yeah, you know? 00:28:05 Speaker 2: Okay, I've returned with the knife and a plate, trying to be hygienic with it. Let's say there are four of us, so I'm gonna be try my best. I'm all nerves, you know, cutting a dessert on a podcast. Oh look, how gorgeous I did this? This is beautiful. Look how gorgeous. Okay, each of you. 00:28:27 Speaker 3: Thank you. 00:28:28 Speaker 5: I don't think I'm gonna like this, but I'm just letting me know. 00:28:31 Speaker 3: It probably won't be too sweet. 00:28:33 Speaker 5: No, no, I don't like a red bea. 00:28:34 Speaker 3: Oh you don't like red beer? 00:28:35 Speaker 1: Oh? 00:28:35 Speaker 2: Yeah, I try it here on? 00:28:37 Speaker 3: All right, we all go, Okay. 00:28:41 Speaker 2: It's fine, it's sweet, right, you're like sweet? 00:28:46 Speaker 5: You know what. I I don't like it. 00:28:48 Speaker 2: You don't like it, I'm not. 00:28:49 Speaker 4: I'm not. 00:28:50 Speaker 3: Here's I'm gonna I'm gonna keep eating mine. 00:28:52 Speaker 5: I here's the thing. I'm famously don't love dessert. So I gave you something that I hate, which actually now I respect makes sense because we are opposites. 00:29:02 Speaker 3: And I love to hear it. So I'm just like, I'm eating this. I might like it better without the red beans, but I do like macha, So yeah, the machas. You can taste the mancha for sure. The macha's good and it's a good texture. I have nothing to complain about. It's not like the best dessert I've ever had, No, but you know, it could as a thing none of us have tried before. 00:29:21 Speaker 2: It could have gone in any direction. 00:29:22 Speaker 4: M hmm. 00:29:23 Speaker 3: It could have been we learned something new. Yeah, so I'm talking with my mouth fulcus I'm still eating it. 00:29:26 Speaker 2: How often you two going to the bakery? Any bakery? Hmmm. 00:29:31 Speaker 3: I feel like there was a window of time where I used to go to this bakery like way way more. Oh you know what it was pre pandem, you know what I mean, people were less like, oh, right, they used to before didn't They would just you'd put them on a trade, but they were like not wrapped like this, and that was fine, right, and you can see them better and then you're like they're all rapped, Yeah, they're all individually wrapped now Oh, that's not. But I feel like there was a window of time where it was like even more fun because you could see them very clearly and be like, Okay, I need to get like twenty five different things, right. 00:29:59 Speaker 2: I think they probably their business has probably gone down because you grab a bunch of things. If they're naked, they're in a bag. It's like, yeahs. 00:30:08 Speaker 5: I need them to be naked. 00:30:09 Speaker 3: Yes, Nude baked goods is. 00:30:11 Speaker 2: The key cherry. What do you bake? 00:30:15 Speaker 3: M sorry, mouthful, still eating this, enjoying very rude, so rude. I'm canceled. I'm disgusting. I baked tie tea sugar cookies today because we're going over to our friend's house later and everyone's bringing like something from like their Asian country. Right, So that is a huge cheat because sugar cookies are not tied but the tie tea in them is so right. 00:30:36 Speaker 2: That's a good idea. What sort of spices are in ti tea? 00:30:40 Speaker 3: No idea? 00:30:40 Speaker 2: Oh interesting, wouldn't be able to tell you. 00:30:44 Speaker 3: It's orange, That's all I can tell you. 00:30:46 Speaker 2: It does. I have a like a citrusy element. 00:30:49 Speaker 3: I don't think it's citrusy, but it's something I don't know anything about it? 00:30:53 Speaker 2: Tie interesting, that's a very sweet it's like something. 00:30:57 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, because they. 00:30:58 Speaker 2: Of the condensed milk. 00:31:00 Speaker 3: Condensed milk is not healthy the sweetest factor yet. Okay, so I just put them in sugar cookies, so that is also not healthy. 00:31:05 Speaker 2: But you know did they have you tried one yet? Oh? Yeah? And they're good? 00:31:08 Speaker 3: Yeah? 00:31:08 Speaker 2: Did it change their color? 00:31:10 Speaker 3: It it sort of uh gave them sort of like sort of like uh, dark tea looking speckles like throughout. So it's not a total orange cookie. It's like there's still kind of a white cookie, but with like lots of aggressive sprinkles. Oh, it's cute. 00:31:25 Speaker 2: That might be a new Did you make the recipe yourself? Uh? 00:31:28 Speaker 3: Oh, I mean not really because I used Ti tea. There was like Taylor Swift famously had like I think she had chay tea sugar cookies from like years ago. Guess what, just change the tea and it's something else. 00:31:39 Speaker 2: Now gray or what have you? 00:31:40 Speaker 3: Ye? 00:31:41 Speaker 2: Wait, and are you both going to this party? 00:31:42 Speaker 5: Yes? 00:31:43 Speaker 2: We are. Did you make anything Teresa? Oh? No, no humiliating. 00:31:48 Speaker 4: I know. 00:31:49 Speaker 5: Here's the thing is, I'm very bad at cooking again different and I don't want It's so embarrassing when you make something and then you you have, oh you have that dish, and then no one's eating it. And I just couldn't go through that shame because I know that that's what would happen. 00:32:09 Speaker 2: Everyone feels bad for you, I know, and everyone's like. 00:32:11 Speaker 5: Oh, it looks so good and then they get like the tiniest little scoop of whatever gross thing I made. So I am bringing dent Typhoon. 00:32:20 Speaker 2: Oh well, then you're kind of a hero in your own way, I think. Yeah. 00:32:23 Speaker 5: I mean it's definitely a cop out, and I feel bad about it. I do feel bad about it. 00:32:27 Speaker 3: You shouldn't. We're going to be really happy eating it. 00:32:29 Speaker 5: I do feel it, But I couldn't have that kind of humiliation, you know, right? 00:32:33 Speaker 2: Is it a big dent Typhoon order? 00:32:35 Speaker 5: Or I always order food like it's my last meal, so we kicked me out to eat. Yes, it will be a big dent typhone order. 00:32:43 Speaker 2: Yeah. How do we feel about dent Typhoon moving from is it the Americana to the Galleria? Oh for the listener that it's moving from one mall across the street to another that you didn't know this? 00:32:53 Speaker 3: No, I didn't know that either. 00:32:54 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's not far twenty twenty three, Oh my god, prepare yourselves bigger space for dent Typhoon. 00:33:00 Speaker 3: I love a bigger space. 00:33:02 Speaker 2: Apparently another dumpling place is taking over where dent Tiphung is. Which one they make like rainbow colored dumplings. 00:33:09 Speaker 3: Oh, I feel like I've seen them. I can't remember the names. 00:33:13 Speaker 5: It feels like a gimmick, it feels but yeah, they're cute. They're cute, They're they're. 00:33:18 Speaker 2: Visually delight I want it to be a mouthfully delightful Oh yeah, I mean I literally have only seen them, so I don't know if they could be. 00:33:25 Speaker 5: It basically tastes the same as a regular dumpling, except it's very. 00:33:29 Speaker 2: Cute, cute. We could do that. I'm wondering how they stand up against denti Fung though. 00:33:36 Speaker 3: Yeah, blind taste tests. 00:33:38 Speaker 2: Oh interesting, You would definitely have to have your eyes closed with this one. We don't interest. These are too cute. We know which ones they are. Okay, so you're bringing dinner essentially? Is this a lunch party, dinner party? 00:33:48 Speaker 3: It's a dinner party. 00:33:50 Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:33:50 Speaker 3: I feel like there's I feel like there's just gonna be too much food. I feel like everyone is like going to be you know, it's that thing. 00:33:55 Speaker 2: Right, and everyone else is bringing a baked good. 00:33:57 Speaker 3: No, I think other people are bringing savories and one other person is bringing a baked good that was also purchased. 00:34:03 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, well this is gonna be an interesting party for both of you. 00:34:06 Speaker 3: I mean, well, you know, we'll see, we'll see what happens. 00:34:10 Speaker 2: Cherry. Do you cook? Teresa can't cook or bake. 00:34:13 Speaker 3: I don't like cooking as oh Thesa can't do anything. 00:34:17 Speaker 2: Can you know? 00:34:21 Speaker 3: I'm not cooking savory things, not not so much. I mean I can, I guess I don't really like to. I don't know. I got my parents were just in town and they took us to this like place downtown that's basically like ty Costco. So I did buy like a bunch of things, and so now I'm like, oh, I'm gonna have to cook them or else. I'm you know, it's like I've wasted all the stuff. So I probably will be doing more cooking in the coming weeks. But like I'm usually a door dash, so oh sure, yeah. 00:34:48 Speaker 2: You and I are very similar, very very similar. Tai Costco. Is it like a big warehouse. 00:34:53 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a it's downtown. I think I want to say it's in Chinatown. I can't remember exactly, but it's like, yeah, it's basically Costco. It's like they have huge bulk things, but they also have huge bulk things of specifically Thaie ingredients, so a lot of restaurants, you know, things like that, but you know you can also just go. Yeah, it was fun. 00:35:10 Speaker 2: I wish you two didn't live on the West Side. I would ask you for restaurant recommendations. I'm in a bad cycle right now of restaurants. We're like, oh, going to the same places over and over. But anywhere you tell me there's going to be fifty minutes away, it's worthless. 00:35:21 Speaker 3: Way do you like Silver Lake Tie House? 00:35:23 Speaker 2: No, where's that? 00:35:24 Speaker 5: Okay? 00:35:24 Speaker 3: It's like it's a silver Lake tie House and they have this awesome chicken there that you have to call twenty four hours in advance and reserve, so high recommend I feel like that's close to you. It's like they just it's like a it's like a grilled chicken and they put like put herbs in there, and there's like a sauce that goes with it, and it's giant, like like when you look at it, like it's a whole chicken, you're like, well, this one was really big when it was alive. You're just like, oh my god. 00:35:51 Speaker 5: You want a big chicken. 00:35:52 Speaker 3: It's a huge chicken. It's delicious, but you have to call it twenty four hours in advance, and sometimes they won't have it. 00:35:57 Speaker 2: But it's great. 00:35:58 Speaker 3: So but even without that high recommen Okay. 00:36:00 Speaker 2: Calling in advance for food scares me to death. 00:36:03 Speaker 3: It is no, it's it's pressure, right, I've tried to do it and sometimes so like, yeah, I know the guy's not here, you can't have it, And then I'm sad. 00:36:08 Speaker 2: Right, And also who knows how you're going to feel in twenty four hours. 00:36:11 Speaker 3: You don't act. Oh my god, you don't want to un anymore? Bye? 00:36:15 Speaker 2: Was fake your own death or something? 00:36:17 Speaker 3: You have to that's the only town. 00:36:20 Speaker 5: He's so embarrassing. Yeah, all of a sudden you have a big thing at chicken, the biggest chicken you've ever seen. 00:36:24 Speaker 3: You've ghosted a giant chicken. And it would be sad, but it's already been killed. 00:36:29 Speaker 2: So but it's called silver Lake Tie House. Yes, Okay, I'm going to keep this in mind the next time I feel like my life is going to be stable for twenty four hours. 00:36:36 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know you're feeling good. 00:36:38 Speaker 5: You know, like tomorrow I will want big Chicken and I will. 00:36:42 Speaker 3: Be able to make sure that I can go get it. 00:36:45 Speaker 2: Do you to eat out in the East Side at all? 00:36:48 Speaker 5: No? 00:36:49 Speaker 2: Wow, you're worthless to me. 00:36:50 Speaker 5: Yeah I do. 00:36:52 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:36:52 Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm restaurants and websites? I'm out of them. I don't have any to You. 00:36:57 Speaker 3: Don't have any? Oh really websites? Oh god, I mean I'm not. I mean I can't. What do we have to recommend there? I got nothing. 00:37:03 Speaker 2: It feels like there was a point when everyone there are websites you could go to. Now it's just like, well, I'm just on Instagram. 00:37:08 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's really true. Like I feel like there was a time when you could be like, oh, like there's a cute animal's website and you could look. 00:37:17 Speaker 5: But now overload. 00:37:18 Speaker 3: Yeah, but now you your phone knows you like cute things and it just shows them to you. 00:37:22 Speaker 2: Right, It's kind of just a constant explosion in your face rather than these concentrated doses. Yes, I was reading Gawker when it was back online for a while, and I really loved that. It felt like a safe haven as far as being on a website. It's gone now, it's gone. 00:37:35 Speaker 3: Oh it was back for a second. 00:37:36 Speaker 2: It was incredible. The writing was really good and it was funny and interesting. And then of course the parent company was horrible. It shows them down. Yeah, so you do a wordle. I don't like wordle. There's too much guessing involved. 00:37:50 Speaker 3: Don't hate it. I can't stand it. I can the same. 00:37:53 Speaker 1: I can't. 00:37:55 Speaker 3: Hate hate, never terrible up, immediately hate it. 00:38:01 Speaker 2: I like the mini crossword. To do the mini crossword and then. 00:38:04 Speaker 3: I'm not mad at a crossword like I can do one. Like wordle is just like no way. 00:38:09 Speaker 2: Right, just too much frustrating guessing for me. Mini crossword is kind of crosswords for idiots, so that's good for me. And there's a new thing called Connections. Have you heard of this No? I think it's a rip off of another game, but basically it gives you sixteen words and you have to connect groups of four words like how they're connected to each other, and it's like it tries to trick you. It's like just hard enough right after waking up. Okay, but wordle, no, thank you. Okay, you're still doing it though. 00:38:35 Speaker 5: I'm still doing it. 00:38:36 Speaker 2: Do you feel like you got better at it? 00:38:39 Speaker 1: Yeah? 00:38:40 Speaker 5: I still do it. My mom and I send each other our wordle and our quordals every day. 00:38:45 Speaker 3: That's that's way too many. I mean, John to do four, I can't. 00:38:49 Speaker 4: I'm yeah. 00:38:49 Speaker 5: It's like a nice proof of life, you know, like, oh, here we go wordle and chordal. 00:38:54 Speaker 2: She's really good at it, so I guess you can get good at it, or you're born good at it, maybe yeah. 00:39:00 Speaker 5: Yeah, or she's cheating. 00:39:01 Speaker 2: I don't know. I can't. I'm like, yeah, the most unfulfilling thing you could possibly do exactly. 00:39:08 Speaker 5: Got it in every single time. Again, I'm like, wow, how is she doing that? 00:39:13 Speaker 3: It's proof of life, like if the underlying thing is just like hey. 00:39:16 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, and then a this is so boring for you guys who hate world. But then it's like, oh my god, I can't believe you got that quardal and six, you know, and then you talk about it. 00:39:27 Speaker 2: Yeah, my boyfriend still does wordle and I he tries to get me back on the boat. I'm just like, not happenings, see. 00:39:34 Speaker 5: It would make your relationship stronger. Honestly, it's like trying to chip away. I understand. 00:39:40 Speaker 2: I understand. 00:39:40 Speaker 5: Yeah that makes sense. 00:39:42 Speaker 2: Has there ever been a word that was so hard and you got it you were like thrilled? Or is it always just like I got it? 00:39:48 Speaker 5: Usually the words are pretty easy. I think they've gotten a little bit harder there. There have been some moments where it's like you have your like down to the last one and you guess between two and then you get it. But I've never missed a wordle yet. 00:40:00 Speaker 2: Wow. Have you been doing it since like early pandemic? 00:40:04 Speaker 5: Yeah, whenever the world starts years? 00:40:06 Speaker 3: But I don't do years of world. 00:40:07 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't do it every day. Sometimes I forget I have one. 00:40:10 Speaker 3: You know how, like sometimes you just like guess it and it's the one. 00:40:14 Speaker 5: That doesn't happen yet. 00:40:17 Speaker 2: Why did I even get on? 00:40:18 Speaker 3: People get psyched though? You know what I mean? There's that's like that's yeah, when you. 00:40:23 Speaker 2: Just get it, that literally means you just get oh yeah. 00:40:26 Speaker 3: That won the lottery, you know, achieve nothing to vegas your world least? 00:40:30 Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree, you want to get something that's really hard that other people don't know, right, and now they've started this is again so boring for anyone who doesn't like no. 00:40:42 Speaker 3: Like the listeners who are passionate about word or are like. 00:40:47 Speaker 5: Now they have stats where you can compare yourself to the other world people. 00:40:53 Speaker 3: Like you love that, Oh, I love it. 00:40:55 Speaker 2: And how are you doing? Like worldwide? 00:40:57 Speaker 5: So I haven't looked, but it's like they'll there'll be a thing we're like, this word was the hardest word of the week or whatever, and only you know whatever, a percentage of people got this word, so they have like I love statistics, we love data. 00:41:09 Speaker 2: It's an interesting yeah, kind of like in a finding out that we're all part of some horrible connection exactly the best way to put it. We all have the same bowling shoes on that kind of thing. Okay, Well, I'm glad Cherry and I are both on the same page as far as word all goes. Our relationship is just growing. 00:41:30 Speaker 5: And I want to get I want to find something. 00:41:36 Speaker 3: That we can we find something that ever happen I know, seriously and. 00:41:40 Speaker 5: Be the sort of a quiet ride home in the car. 00:41:44 Speaker 3: Should we just name things and see whether we all like something. I mean, like, I can't get to that. Actually I'm worried for. 00:41:51 Speaker 2: That's actually a great segue into us to be honest. Oh my god, I think we should play a game. 00:41:55 Speaker 3: Oh what's gonna happen. 00:41:56 Speaker 2: We're going to play a game called the Gift or a Curse and I'll tell you how the rules were in a minute. I need a number between one and ten from you. Seven. Okay, we've got a confidence. Seven. I have to do some light calculating. So while I'm calculating, you can promote, and I think you should promote. You can recommend, do whatever you want with the mic. I'll be right back. 00:42:12 Speaker 3: Wait is that is that real? 00:42:15 Speaker 2: I get ready to promote now? 00:42:17 Speaker 3: No, I'm like, I'm like, what should we wait? 00:42:20 Speaker 2: So this isn't gonna get I need you to to be professionals. You have a movie in so. 00:42:25 Speaker 3: Look, what we definitely have learned is that we are not is that is that we're not professionals and everything goes off the rails almost immediately. 00:42:31 Speaker 5: We hope people will see joy Ride. Yes, if you don't see it, you're a fucking loser. 00:42:37 Speaker 3: You haven't seen it already because it's gonna have been out by the time this podcast came out. Then we're not friends anymore. And how dare you? 00:42:43 Speaker 5: Yeah? 00:42:43 Speaker 3: But then but also voting. 00:42:45 Speaker 5: Like threatening people? Is that good promotion? 00:42:48 Speaker 3: But if you were like, legit busy this past weekend, We're so sorry. And let's see it's the weekend too, because we get, we get people are busy, you know what I mean? Maybe it was like someone's birthday. It's like whatever, you had a destination wedding. You can go see it, but get but next weekend, also see it in theater. 00:43:00 Speaker 5: Or else I'll never make R rated movies again. 00:43:01 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. We need to bring I mean, it's your fault that R rated comedies died. If you did not see this in a theater with a bunch of your friends. 00:43:08 Speaker 2: You've got to. You have to go see comedies. Come on, you have to. 00:43:11 Speaker 3: It's so much more fun with more people. 00:43:12 Speaker 2: How many movies about multi verses? Can you see? The comedy? 00:43:17 Speaker 3: Yeah? 00:43:19 Speaker 4: Man? 00:43:20 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know? 00:43:21 Speaker 5: Is that something? Something? 00:43:22 Speaker 3: Verse? Is something mars verse, marvelous, mythmatic spider Man, cinematic universe? Is that something? 00:43:30 Speaker 2: At first I thought you said birth, and then I thought you said birth versus the cinematic universe. 00:43:35 Speaker 3: That sounds like something honestly that's probably coming out literally, like in three. 00:43:37 Speaker 2: Weeks Birth is like a real deep cut Marvel character exactly. 00:43:40 Speaker 3: We don't know it could be. I believe it. 00:43:43 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, the promoting here was excellent. 00:43:45 Speaker 3: That's are you running through the theater right now? Oh you're so convinced. 00:43:50 Speaker 2: Everyone, they've turned around the car. 00:43:53 Speaker 3: These people definitely made a good movie that's worth spending your time on. 00:43:56 Speaker 2: I believe it. I believe it. Let's go see the movie. Don't barrass us. Yeah, this is how we play Gift or a Curse. I'm gonna name three things. You two have to actually come to an agreement and tell me if there are a gift or a curse and why? Okay, and then I'll tell you if you're right or wrong because there are correct answers. Okay, does that make sense? 00:44:14 Speaker 4: Yes? 00:44:14 Speaker 3: Yes? 00:44:14 Speaker 2: Okay. Number one this is from a listener named Katie, and she suggested gift or a curse couples who sit on the same side of a restaurant booth together instead of a cross from each other. Absolutely, curse why. 00:44:26 Speaker 3: Because that's I mean fine, but come on, I don't want to look at that. 00:44:35 Speaker 2: Teresa's that kind of your thoughts. 00:44:36 Speaker 5: Absolutely, that's crazy. You need to have some separation honestly for a grip. Yeah, calm down, Like unless there was like something really fun to look at on the other side, Yeah no. 00:44:50 Speaker 3: If there's like an aggressive people watching situation or whatever. But it's like, I feel like, I don't know, because you can always like, if that's happening, just sit across and then it's like, oh my god, celebrity walk in. Okay, let's scoot around, turn around or whatever. 00:45:01 Speaker 5: There should be a reason you are on the same side. 00:45:03 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:45:05 Speaker 2: You're too wrong. It's a gift. The reason is true love. Oh sure, of course, if you're if you really love your partner, you're saying, you don't we sit. 00:45:17 Speaker 3: On the same side all the time, And I can say that with a straight face. 00:45:21 Speaker 2: No, this is an efficient use of space. First of all, look, yeah, we don't need to be wasting the whole booth with two people getting them on the same side there. Also, it gives everybody at the restaurant a little thing to look at. Look at those losers sitting next to each other, loo cow insecure. They are about their love. 00:45:37 Speaker 5: Interesting, you know what, I like it. 00:45:38 Speaker 2: I like that. 00:45:40 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:45:41 Speaker 2: Yes, I've worked at restaurants and anytime that the couple's on the same side, I get something to just hate throughout my entire shift. 00:45:46 Speaker 3: You know what. That that's good. That's if we're making people happier during their shift. 00:45:52 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the original kind of sharing a Facebook account. Oh right, isn't it. 00:45:58 Speaker 3: Yeah? I forgot, So I'm just like I just am now. I'm just like you're remembering face, remembering people. Well, I'm remembering you know what I mean, like knowing people who and just be like, oh god, all right, guys whatever. 00:46:08 Speaker 2: Those people who shared the booth absolutely have a joint account. 00:46:11 Speaker 5: That's like joint toothbrush level. 00:46:14 Speaker 2: Yeah, because we don't see what they're doing at home. 00:46:16 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean right, if they're doing that in public, what are they doing? 00:46:19 Speaker 2: Right? Illegal? Deeply illegal. Actually, bad things are happening, dark things are happening in those homes. So it's a gift. It's absolutely gifting. You do not get the point. Yes, number two, this is from someone named Rick. Rick suggested gift or a curse taking a picture with the corpse at an open casket funeral. 00:46:40 Speaker 5: Well, shucks, I mean it made us laugh. I feel like it's a gift. 00:46:47 Speaker 3: Is it a comedy person funeral? Because like you know what I mean, Like that's that's a bit that people are enjoying. Then probably. 00:46:54 Speaker 5: Yeah, honestly I'm kind of into it. 00:46:57 Speaker 3: I'm not, do you know what I mean? 00:46:58 Speaker 5: I mean, I feel like it's it's bad. Obviously it's disrespectful. 00:47:01 Speaker 3: Well just dependent, I mean, did this person die? Did they leave it in their will? Please take a picture with my corpseal, because that's funny. We don't know, we don't know what the circumstances are if they did, maybe you know, maybe they had a sense of humor. 00:47:12 Speaker 5: Also, like do they have like a funny expression on their face like the mortis or the embalming person draw something like really cool. 00:47:19 Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't know. We actually we need more information. 00:47:22 Speaker 2: You've got to come to a conclusion. There a gift. 00:47:25 Speaker 5: I think it's a gift. 00:47:26 Speaker 2: Of course. What a fun opportunity. One last shot with the dead. Yeah, get in there, get a picture. Oh my god, yeah moving yeah, you know you can get the angles just right and the only one of you is moving. This is perfect. Yeah. I think that's a gift. 00:47:41 Speaker 5: That's nice. Okay, Yeah, that's all right. Their last Instagram. 00:47:44 Speaker 2: Oh my god, get that thing. Yeah, tag the funeral, yeah, tag it. 00:47:52 Speaker 5: Honestly they need yeah, they need the promotion. 00:47:55 Speaker 2: Yeah. I wonder what these funeral homes are doing, like as far as social media guys. 00:47:59 Speaker 5: Honestly, it would be really fun if it's like everyone's like, don't forget to check it. Yeah, don't forget to check in. 00:48:04 Speaker 2: You get ten percent off your next visit. That's sort of thing. I think that. Yeah, it's a gift. It's certainly a gift. We should all be taking pictures with more corpses. 00:48:12 Speaker 3: Start it. 00:48:13 Speaker 2: I think we can. 00:48:14 Speaker 5: Yeah, should we do it to it after? 00:48:16 Speaker 2: Yeah, will kill somebody, Well, we'll get somebody dead and just. 00:48:20 Speaker 3: To take their picture with it. Yeah. 00:48:21 Speaker 2: Great, it feels like a smart crime decision. Yes, yeah, okay wow. One out of two so far, so that's not too bad. Number three listener Amanda has suggested gift or a curse. A brother in law no one likes. 00:48:36 Speaker 3: Oh, just just just as a as a noun, like nothing. 00:48:40 Speaker 2: Yeah, he just exists. This brother in law nobody likes. 00:48:42 Speaker 3: I think it is because that you can trauma bond over your hating. I don't even when you hate someone together. 00:48:48 Speaker 5: Honestly, I believe very strongly that humanity gets closer together when we have a shared enemy. Yes, which is why I believe that aliens will save. 00:48:57 Speaker 3: Us all right? 00:48:57 Speaker 2: Oh interesting, Yeah. 00:48:59 Speaker 5: Yeah, because you know the aliens come, everyone will be like, let's put aside our differences and fight the alien. 00:49:05 Speaker 3: Yeah, because we finally have to get our shot together exactly, you know. 00:49:08 Speaker 5: And and now brother in law everyone hates. Yeah, like that's great. Yes, that brings a family closer. 00:49:15 Speaker 3: Toga, you've got a side thread about him, you know, you're talking about behind his back. 00:49:19 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:49:20 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, it's a gift. You have to have something to like aim the lasers at. Yes, Yes, any in law that everybody hates. Oh, what a relief to like. Because we all have our problems with every family member. But when there's like a we despise that person and they can do no nothing correctly, we get to talk about them non stop when they're there. We all get to keep our little secret. We get somebody to blame in every situation. 00:49:46 Speaker 3: It's just fun. 00:49:46 Speaker 2: It's just it's fun, literally for the whole time. 00:49:50 Speaker 5: They should like every family should have ones, like someone might need to marry someone bad, take. 00:49:55 Speaker 3: One exactly, just to preserve the family bonding, preserve for the rest of the family. 00:50:00 Speaker 2: I feel like frequently the person who marries that is probably the sibling. Everyone doesn't that on the same page with it anyway. 00:50:07 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, but it's better to hate someone that they married than to hate them exactly. 00:50:12 Speaker 3: There you're shifting the blade, like, oh my god, my family kind of hates me. Let me marry like someone even worse nobody. Yeah, then at least it's a smart move. Maybe. Yeah, kudos to all those people were burying loosers. 00:50:26 Speaker 2: Beautiful. Yeah, I mean you got two out of three, and I think you really brought those final two homes oh good in a way that you know, the first one was kind of an embarrassment, embarrassing failure on both of you. 00:50:35 Speaker 3: Yeah, you should have left after that. 00:50:37 Speaker 2: You should have left, But we brought it back, especially. 00:50:40 Speaker 5: Since we're sitting on the same side of the table right now. 00:50:42 Speaker 3: Yeah, but there's two other truthful, it's not okay, but there's people, you know what I mean. It's like, if it's like, don't. 00:50:47 Speaker 5: You love me, I do? It doesn't seem like it. 00:50:49 Speaker 3: We hold hands so I can actually it might be a hot like we think we figured out that I have very cold hand. No, I think might are. 00:50:54 Speaker 2: Warm Todayeah, bad circular. Yeah, I have cold feet. 00:51:04 Speaker 3: To feet. She doesn't want to put on bowling shoes, but she wants to toech your feet right now, your bare feet. 00:51:09 Speaker 2: Let's go. Yeah, how cold a foot can become? 00:51:13 Speaker 3: I agree with you. 00:51:14 Speaker 2: It's like your body is actively cooling the foot. Yeah, it's like, where is that coming from? 00:51:19 Speaker 5: Because like all the blood should be in your feet, it should be right. 00:51:21 Speaker 3: Because yeah, the bottom is doing more work to get it out of there. 00:51:25 Speaker 2: A little nervous about getting to the foot. No. Yeah, I've got cold feet and there's nothing I can do about it except for talk about it on a podcast for too long. Okay, two out of three. Very good. It's time for Unfortunately. The final segment of the podcast, this is called I said no emails. The listener's right into I said no gifts at gmail dot com to my listeners have problems. Yes, absolutely. It's hard to say they don't have problems because they're writing non stop and asking for help. They're begging, they're screaming. Would you too help me answer a question? 00:51:57 Speaker 3: Yes? 00:51:58 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Okay, let's get into the doc me just the way this one starts as a little rude because usually they say hybridgeror and guests, this's just as highbridger. 00:52:06 Speaker 3: All right, So that's okay. 00:52:08 Speaker 2: I mean now, I mean, I guess you do have the option to answer. I encourage you to. But this person wasn't thinking very considerately. It says, My siblings and I usually flop on our parents' birthday gifts, but this year, we've been planning my mother's gift for months and it's going to be very thoughtful and exciting. Now I'm starting to think about what to do for my father's birthday, which is just a few days after my mother's, so it'll be memorable if we do something super meaningful for her and slack off on his day. He's a professor, and he's into motorcycles, watching sports and new technologies. Any ideas I'm thinking this is I'm thinking this is Indiana Jones. It's not Indiana Jones. Their father's not Indiana Jones. Note we have the budget of three broke college students combined, so not much. Thanks. And that's Amy, So Amy and friends or siblings have been thinking about mommy for months. They've got an incredible, thoughtful siding gift, and then now suddenly they're just thinking, Oh, we should get our dad something. And he's a professor, he's into motorcycles, he watches sports, and he's into new technologies. And as we've cleared up, he's not Indiana Jones. So what do we do for dad? 00:53:18 Speaker 5: I think you do a photoshopped picture of him on a motorcycle or like in a whatever his favorite team is. Oh interesting because it shows photoshopping anything shows like a little bit of care, like you into doing right. And it could be funny, like him on a motorcycle doing like a tom Cruise motorcycle stunt. 00:53:42 Speaker 2: Oh, we love that. 00:53:44 Speaker 5: That could be fun. And then he couldn't have it in his home. 00:53:48 Speaker 2: And he just loved technology. We learned this thirty year old technology for you. 00:53:53 Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's true. 00:53:54 Speaker 2: Yeah, interesting, that's not a bad idea, maybe, uh yeah, And that's low budget. I'm trying to think what else could they possibly I assume he already has a motorcycle and they can't afford that. 00:54:04 Speaker 3: No, they can't afford that. Can they afford like a here's how much I know about sports. It is my understanding that like, if you like a one particular sport like football, is something you could like buy some sort of like channel that like has it like a special channel. Is that something? 00:54:19 Speaker 2: I think that's probably true. 00:54:20 Speaker 5: He probably already has. 00:54:24 Speaker 2: And also that's a long term commitment. 00:54:26 Speaker 3: Something you can have one of your sport during the time when it is not. 00:54:32 Speaker 5: They could buy a cameo of like oh. 00:54:36 Speaker 2: Sports player. Yes, yeah, she wasn't able to specify any sport which could have helped right detail. 00:54:43 Speaker 3: Literally it could be anything. It could literally be like synchronized swimming, and we don't know. 00:54:48 Speaker 2: Right exactly, and I mean there are hundreds of channels for synchronized. 00:54:51 Speaker 5: Swimmtorcycles, synchronized Swimming's very funny. 00:54:55 Speaker 3: He's passionate about syncro. And we'll find a synchro uh swimmer on cameo. 00:55:01 Speaker 2: Absolutely, there has to be one there. 00:55:03 Speaker 3: There's got to be. We don't know. 00:55:04 Speaker 2: I bet they're doing swimming for their cameo, probably underwater, underwater, and they're not they're I mean, dripping the ball and. 00:55:11 Speaker 5: Really not worth a cameo. 00:55:13 Speaker 2: They don't quite know why people like them. A person thinks people like their personality and that's do the. 00:55:18 Speaker 3: Thing that people are enjoying the thing. 00:55:21 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think a cameo, a photoshop, maybe a motorcycle helmet with the favorite sports. 00:55:28 Speaker 3: Team custom, sort of like our logo. 00:55:31 Speaker 2: Yeah, that must be a thing you can get. 00:55:33 Speaker 3: I bet I'm sure custom. 00:55:34 Speaker 2: Yeah right, motorcycle video game. Maybe that that's a good technology. 00:55:38 Speaker 3: That sounds like I believe that. 00:55:41 Speaker 2: I said, I don't think that really doesn't really, I can't think of the last motorcycle video game. 00:55:47 Speaker 3: Grand Theft Motorcycle that. 00:55:50 Speaker 2: It's strictly motorcycles. Everyone in that world is motorcycle. Yeah, I would play that game. I mean, it's not a bad idea. Well, we should cut that out of the episode and make our game. Well, Amy, I mean it sounds like, I mean, the hard truth here is she's gonna flop on Dad's. 00:56:07 Speaker 3: It's it's honestly, it's I'm really interested in why they spend like when the birthdays are like right next to each other, It's like, why did they spend so much time? They could have been thinking about them both at the same time exactly, they could have done a joint thing. 00:56:19 Speaker 2: I don't know this is what you do, is you get Dad a good divorce lawyer, because this is going to cause a riff rude, this is going to ruin his marriage. 00:56:26 Speaker 5: I'm truly worried about them. 00:56:28 Speaker 2: Yeah, this family is falling apart. 00:56:29 Speaker 5: Hopefully they have a brother in law that they hate. 00:56:32 Speaker 3: That's the only thing that's going to bring them back together.

That feels like it would have been inappropriate. 00:57:03 Speaker 3: It is a lot is a lot for audio. 00:57:10 Speaker 2: I mean, I love to just get nice wet sounds on the microphone everyone's but I'll have to figure out something to do with the rest of these treats and savories. I shouldn't have eaten lunch. What a mistake. Thank you so much for being here, Thanks for having USA Time listener. The episode's over.
