Speaker 1: The Best Bits of the Week with Morgan Part.
Speaker 2: One behind the scene with a member of the show.
Speaker 3: What's up, everybody? Welcome Best Bits this weekend. You're on
Speaker 3: part one and Mike D is joining me. Mike, how
Speaker 3: are you feeling to any good?
Speaker 2: I'm back, You are back.
Speaker 3: Feels like you're just here.
Speaker 2: This is my favorite thing to do on Saturdays.
Speaker 3: Oh boy, were continuing that one lunchbox deals with that line? Now,
Speaker 3: Mike D isn't all that okay? How is life going
Speaker 3: for you right now? How are you and your wife?
Speaker 2: I think we're good. I think we're just trying to
Speaker 2: live life right now. I think we're both like well
Speaker 2: into our thirties and realizing that we kind of like
Speaker 2: having the flexibility of not having kids.
Speaker 3: That makes sense.
Speaker 2: She's in a point in her life where all of
Speaker 2: her friends pretty much either have kids are currently pregnant.
Speaker 2: She only has a couple of friends who don't have
Speaker 2: any kids like us. And I think it's realizing that
Speaker 2: we know that we want that eventually. I think still,
Speaker 2: but right now we're like kind of like it, like
Speaker 2: we just switched our vacation plans last minute, and we're
Speaker 2: like we can really only do that right now, in
Speaker 2: this phase of life where we don't have to worry
Speaker 2: about that.
Speaker 3: Is there any discussion of where that's like not a
Speaker 3: possibility as you guys continue to stay in your happy place.
Speaker 2: I think so. I think we're like we see how
Speaker 2: much work it is, and we know like that's a
Speaker 2: big commitment. So I think we're two people who overthink
Speaker 2: a lot. So I think it's it could really kind
Speaker 2: of go either way, like we want it. We can
Speaker 2: see that like having a family would be great. We
Speaker 2: could also see it like just being us.
Speaker 3: That's fair. Okay, Well that's kind of a big update.
Speaker 3: That's a lot happening. Any other exciting things besides the
Speaker 3: big kid conversation.
Speaker 2: I think that's the main thing. I think it's just
Speaker 2: seeing like I've always thought, like the weird thing of
Speaker 2: my family, like I have an older brother, older sister,
Speaker 2: neither of them have kids, so my parents aren't grandparents
Speaker 2: and they've never pressured us. And I think in Mexican culture, sure,
Speaker 2: really in any culture, there's always this pressure for your parents,
Speaker 2: like when you're gonna give me a grand kid, when
Speaker 2: you're gonna give me a grand kid. And I think
Speaker 2: my mom and my dad never really wanted to put
Speaker 2: that pressure on us because they saw like their brothers
Speaker 2: and sisters doing that to their kids, and some people
Speaker 2: just had kids for the sake, got kids to make
Speaker 2: people happy, So they never did that to us. But
Speaker 2: I think right now I kind of feel a little
Speaker 2: bit like they're not going to come outright and tell us,
Speaker 2: but there's kind of like this, you know, it would
Speaker 2: be nice to have like some grandkids because they're in
Speaker 2: their sixties.
Speaker 3: Now, do you think either of your siblings are gonna
Speaker 3: have kids at some point?
Speaker 2: I don't think so. My older sister was married now divorced,
Speaker 2: so I don't think she will have kids now, which
Speaker 2: is weird to say. And then my brother at one
Speaker 2: point was trying to have kids. And now I think
Speaker 2: they're kind of where we are, Like, I don't know,
Speaker 2: like it's it's hard.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's definitely a hard topic to talk about. Okay, well,
Speaker 3: talk about an exciting thing. I don't have much exciting
Speaker 3: right now, Mike. I did learn what my blood type is, though,
Speaker 3: what is it? Well, at least I think it is
Speaker 3: thanks to you, well, thanks to mosquitoes. So anytime I
Speaker 3: step outside right now, I'm immediately attacked, I'll go back inside,
Speaker 3: and I have fifteen mosquito bites. Okay, And so I
Speaker 3: did some research. I was like, why why am I
Speaker 3: getting bit? And apparently mosquitoes are more attracted to an
Speaker 3: old blood type of blood.
Speaker 2: You think they could smell it?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, I think there's a specific blood they like,
Speaker 3: and that's why some people get attacked and others don't
Speaker 3: get ever attacked.
Speaker 2: Do you think they can smell it? Or you think
Speaker 2: they bite you and then if they realize you have, oh,
Speaker 2: they keep biting you.
Speaker 3: Maybe that's it, Like maybe that my smell attracts them
Speaker 3: is what starts it. And then they're like, oh, this
Speaker 3: is good blood. I'm going to stay and let me,
Speaker 3: let me do this a few more times.
Speaker 2: Because oh it is like the universal donor, right I think?
Speaker 2: So I wrote negative one of those.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't know if I'm making it more positive.
Speaker 3: All I know is at least the old blood type
Speaker 3: is the tends to be the most attractive to mosquitoes.
Speaker 3: I should probably know that, but I don't. So I
Speaker 3: learned from mosquitos that I have a blood that's as
Speaker 3: exciting as my life is.
Speaker 2: Right now, I feel like that's important to know. That's
Speaker 2: something that I feel comes in handy when you but
Speaker 2: you never know it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you know yours?
Speaker 2: No idea? I remember. I think the last time I
Speaker 2: got a physical, they draw your blood. That's always kind
Speaker 2: of weird to see, Like the thing just fill up
Speaker 2: with your blood and you're like.
Speaker 1: Whoa and you watch it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I feel like they're supposed to tell you that
Speaker 3: at some point, or maybe you do and you just
Speaker 3: don't think it's important to remember that information. Do they
Speaker 3: ever tell you that when you get your bood drawn?
Speaker 2: I don't think when you get a drawn. I think
Speaker 2: maybe just when you donate blood. I don't think I've
Speaker 2: ever donated blood.
Speaker 3: I haven't either. I've always been to my like when
Speaker 3: I especially in high school, we did the blood drives
Speaker 3: and stuff like I was too thin in my thing,
Speaker 3: and I like anytime. They're like, if you try, you're
Speaker 3: going to pass out. And I was like, well that's
Speaker 3: good because I don't really want to it either. I
Speaker 3: don't like needles. They scare me.
Speaker 2: I remember that. I don't know if it's true or not,
Speaker 2: but I heard that if you have tattoos, you can't
Speaker 2: donate blood or maybe like around if you had them fresh. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I was like, maybe I can't donate blood.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because I think it's something with like the tattoo
Speaker 3: ink that goes into your skin. I think I don't
Speaker 3: know if that's like still the case, or technology has
Speaker 3: come further to like get that out of the blood,
Speaker 3: or if that's all the same thing. I should probably
Speaker 3: google it. I'm sitting here on it. I can google.
Speaker 2: I mean, the more I read about getting tattoos and
Speaker 2: how unhealthy they are and finding things later in life
Speaker 2: like they could contribute to some sickness or something, I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 2: it probably doesn't make sense that you get something permanently
Speaker 2: on your body.
Speaker 3: So it says you can donate blood if you have tattoos,
Speaker 3: if you meet all other eligibility requirements and the tattoo
Speaker 3: meets certain conditions. The tattoo is applied within the last
Speaker 3: three months, the tattoo is completely healed. The tattoo is
Speaker 3: applied by a state regulated facility that you sterilize needles
Speaker 3: in fresh ink.
Speaker 2: No, well, I got mine in a back alley, so
Speaker 2: I'm out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, unclean tattoo needles. Man, that's what the FDA says.
Speaker 3: You can't you have to wait at least three months
Speaker 3: after getting a tattoo before donating blood. Interesting, I did
Speaker 3: know there was something with it, so you know, who knows?
Speaker 3: How is your new tattoo doing? Are you obsessed with it? Still?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like perfectly healed. And now it's at that
Speaker 2: point where I love it and I associate my body
Speaker 2: with it now because it's weird. When you get a
Speaker 2: new tattoo, you love it because you spend so much
Speaker 2: time thinking about it. For me, I always like put
Speaker 2: it on my phone and if I love it after
Speaker 2: a month still after looking at it on my background,
Speaker 2: then I'm good. But also, like, right when you get it,
Speaker 2: you have this moment where you're like, did I make
Speaker 2: the right decision? Does it actually look good? Am I
Speaker 2: actually gonna want this on my body for the rest
Speaker 2: of my life? And I think it takes a good
Speaker 2: three months to see yourself in the mirror, see it
Speaker 2: in passing that you just get used to it, and like,
Speaker 2: right now I'm at that point where I'm like, Okay,
Speaker 2: this is like the right move I made and it
Speaker 2: fits with my body.
Speaker 3: Interesting, I don't have any tattoos, so it's an interesting
Speaker 3: perspective that I wouldn't have had.
Speaker 2: Because you realize how permanent it is, because when you
Speaker 2: get it, you're like, oh, this is gonna be fun.
Speaker 2: The whole process of getting a tattoo, it was fun,
Speaker 2: like taking them before and after pictures, seeing how it
Speaker 2: turns out, and then you have like that week of
Speaker 2: like just at healing and everything. But then it takes
Speaker 2: a while for you to really think, like, man, this
Speaker 2: is all my body forever. Am I going to like this?
Speaker 2: So I think that's why you always got to lean
Speaker 2: with something that you've loved at one point but also
Speaker 2: looks cool.
Speaker 3: Okay, this is some pro tattoo advice from Mike D.
Speaker 3: Why haven't you posted a picture of it yet?
Speaker 1: I don't know, Like.
Speaker 2: I think I I got this tattoo so much for
Speaker 2: me that I didn't want valid I didn't want or
Speaker 2: need validation from anybody else because I think this was
Speaker 2: me really leaning into my nerdy tendencies that I've had
Speaker 2: throughout my entire life that I've always kind of been
Speaker 2: ashamed of. And it really wasn't until like a couple
Speaker 2: of years ago that I got more comfortable with it.
Speaker 2: That probably once I hit my thirties that I realized
Speaker 2: that I'm into these things. I've always been into these things.
Speaker 2: I guess I've always kind of thought that I had
Speaker 2: to be like cool or something at some point, and
Speaker 2: then I realized, I've never been cool. Why am I
Speaker 2: worried about how I appear to other people who maybe
Speaker 2: have this skewed sense that I'm cool at any point.
Speaker 2: So I've leaned more into like enjoying comic books, collecting things,
Speaker 2: and all those nerdy movies that I've been into forever.
Speaker 2: That I realized, I'm going to get this because I
Speaker 2: want it. I don't care what anybody else is going
Speaker 2: to say about it, because I'm the one who has
Speaker 2: to live with it. So I think I didn't post
Speaker 2: it because I'm like, I don't want the negative stuff.
Speaker 2: I'm like, why would you get a Spider Man tattoo
Speaker 2: because there's some people who aren't going to get it?
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, And you want to keep it a
Speaker 3: positive thing because it's something that you were really excited about.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's always those one negative comments you get
Speaker 2: that just stay with you. And I was like, if
Speaker 2: I just get one negative comment, I'm going to remember
Speaker 2: that forever and think about it when I look at it.
Speaker 2: So I'll never post like a full on like here's
Speaker 2: my tattoo, but it's like in pictures. So mm hmm.
Speaker 2: I'm just like, I don't want to have that mental thing,
Speaker 2: that mental hurdle of like, oh, this one person in
Speaker 2: North Dakota didn't like it. They call me a nerd.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get it removed to cover it up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, you don't want that, and you deserve to
Speaker 3: be happy with this, So totally makes sense. Keep it
Speaker 3: to yourself. You don't ever have to post it. That's
Speaker 3: something you can keep. Okay, we're gonna take a quick break.
Speaker 3: We'll be right back, Mike. I need your thoughts on
Speaker 3: this situation. So I had another funny Uber situation that
Speaker 3: kind of you and the ubers man.
Speaker 2: You got like something on your profile because for me,
Speaker 2: I always get a minivan you always, no matter what,
Speaker 2: if I get an Uber Excel, it's always a minivan.
Speaker 2: So I think there's something on my profile like give
Speaker 2: this guy a minivan.
Speaker 3: I do kind of feel like Uber might do that
Speaker 3: on some leble to mess with us. I get some
Speaker 3: interesting interactions. So, and the reason I'm asking you is
Speaker 3: because you also speak Spanish, and so maybe this was
Speaker 3: somebody who was just messing with me. Maybe it was
Speaker 3: an honest situation. I don't know. So I was riding
Speaker 3: in the back and the uber insisted on leaving his
Speaker 3: windows down up front, and we were going somewhere, not
Speaker 3: like coming back, we were coming back. I'd be like, okay, whatever,
Speaker 3: it's my hair is gonna mess up, but we're headed
Speaker 3: to an event. And so I tried to like be like, hey,
Speaker 3: can we roll the windows up for this ride? And
Speaker 3: he just his automatic responses, sorry, don't speak English, and
Speaker 3: so I was like, okay, uh, windows like and I
Speaker 3: pointed to him and I was like, can we put
Speaker 3: it like? And I did the up motion like I
Speaker 3: was trying really hard to just like kindly be like
Speaker 3: the windows up, and I maybe like he genuinely didn't
Speaker 3: understand me, but he just kept repeating, I don't speak English,
Speaker 3: and so I was like okay. So after like the
Speaker 3: third time I asked, I just gave up and I
Speaker 3: just don't want the fact that the windows were down
Speaker 3: the whole ride. Do you think he could understand me
Speaker 3: or like at least understood my emotions? And he just
Speaker 3: chose to ignore me, or he just genuinely didn't know
Speaker 3: what I was talking about.
Speaker 2: I think from my experience, he probably understood you. And
Speaker 2: he just likes his windows down, because I've gotten in
Speaker 2: some ubers where they should put the windows up, and
Speaker 2: I think maybe either his like AC was out, or
Speaker 2: some people think they save gas by keeping their windows down, and.
Speaker 3: I I wonder if that's actually true, don't.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's true. I think the wind resistance
Speaker 2: coming in through the windows actually slows down your car,
Speaker 2: so you end up using either the same or more
Speaker 2: gas because of that. So it's probably just the comfort thing.
Speaker 2: So I think he understood it if you did the
Speaker 2: windows up thing he did.
Speaker 3: I pointed to the windows, and I say, up.
Speaker 2: I think it's a comfort thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah. It was an interesting dynamic and I was like, okay,
Speaker 3: So for fifteen minutes I just sat in the back,
Speaker 3: sat the windows down the entire ride. We were on
Speaker 3: the highway and everything.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the worst Uber experiences I have is windows Sometimes
Speaker 2: it's windows up, no AC and no music. You're like,
Speaker 2: what is this torture chamber?
Speaker 3: Like, Uh, they're just totally okay with the hot box
Speaker 3: that they're currently in. Yeah. Okay, so well that makes
Speaker 3: you feel better, because I felt really bad. I was like,
Speaker 3: maybe he just doesn't understand what I'm saying. I'm really
Speaker 3: missing the boat here. Okay. Post Malone's album is out
Speaker 3: this weekend. Yeah, and that's your guy. How are you feeling?
Speaker 3: It's this country album.
Speaker 2: I'm kind of at a sigh of relief because the
Speaker 2: first couple singles that came out from it I felt
Speaker 2: were very what I would call commercial country, which are
Speaker 2: gonna be some that sound really good on the radio.
Speaker 2: The Morgan Wallin song, the Blake Shelton song, which I
Speaker 2: like those, But when I sit down to listen to
Speaker 2: post Malone music, that's not really what I associate with it.
Speaker 2: I associate that more with the song we play on
Speaker 2: the show, so that's not necessarily the music I go
Speaker 2: home and listen to. But I still thought those songs
Speaker 2: were good. And the album has been out. I've listened
Speaker 2: to it at the time of this two times, all
Speaker 2: the way through, and I like it a lot. There's
Speaker 2: the sadder country songs that I was looking for, and
Speaker 2: they're also just like different, almost feel like the different
Speaker 2: eras of country represented on this album, like the old
Speaker 2: school sixties, fifties stuff, the two thousands, and like more
Speaker 2: so probably leaning into what's happening now because he has
Speaker 2: a lot of his current artists on it. But I
Speaker 2: think there's a good mixture of everything where it feels
Speaker 2: completely different and completely fresh.
Speaker 3: Okay, and what is your favorite song so far?
Speaker 2: I think the first song with Tim McGraw because it
Speaker 2: has like this, you know, I always like the songs
Speaker 2: that well they kick off the album, but also I
Speaker 2: can visualize them starting the show with so I'm starting
Speaker 2: to think of the show that he's doing here at
Speaker 2: Nissan at the Stadium. Like that song sounds like a
Speaker 2: big opener because it kind of has like this grit
Speaker 2: to it, like the big guitars, the big drums, and
Speaker 2: it just feels like that song that instantly sucks you in.
Speaker 2: So so far, that's my favorite. The Stapleton is probably
Speaker 2: my second favorite, is because hearing Chris Stapleton's voice mixed
Speaker 2: with post Malone is like, those are two really prominent
Speaker 2: voices on one song.
Speaker 3: That's so true. I haven't listened to any of it yet,
Speaker 3: and I really want to, but I was waiting for
Speaker 3: all to be out and like see what people were
Speaker 3: responding to everything, and I was prepared. Is there like moult,
Speaker 3: is every song a collaboration.
Speaker 2: I think there's only maybe two or three songs that
Speaker 2: are just him. He has the one song about his
Speaker 2: daughter that's just him, but I think most of them
Speaker 2: are collaborations. There's like two songs with Luke Comb's on it,
Speaker 2: is there? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Interesting? Maybe Luke Combs is his favorite guy in country music.
Speaker 2: They have been friends for a long time, like way
Speaker 2: before he was even teasing this album. One of his
Speaker 2: first trips to Nashville, Like I saw them hanging out.
Speaker 3: You know that is interesting. Luke COM's is really good
Speaker 3: friends with Post Malone. He's really good friends with Ed
Speaker 3: sheeranlu Luke has some interesting friendships that I don't know
Speaker 3: that anybody would have connected, you know what I mean. Okay,
Speaker 3: so Post Malone weekend. Will you be listening to it
Speaker 3: on your runs? Or is this more of just gonna
Speaker 3: be an enjoyable album.
Speaker 2: I think it's just an enjoyable album. When I run,
Speaker 2: I need like fast paced, like very music that's gonna
Speaker 2: pump you up. I don't feel like any of those
Speaker 2: songs that maybe the first maybe the tim McGrath song
Speaker 2: a little bit, but I really don't listen to country
Speaker 2: at all when I work out, so this is more
Speaker 2: a driving album or like when I work at home album.
Speaker 3: All Right, you got it? That's from the Post. What
Speaker 3: are post malone like? You know how Swifties or Taylor Swish?
Speaker 3: What are post malone people?
Speaker 2: I don't think they have a name, malonners, posts posts.
Speaker 3: Maybe that is the post post mates. These are all
Speaker 3: good ones if he's not using any of me. What's
Speaker 3: something super weird that you like to snack on? I've
Speaker 3: really that. I I'm a big black olive and green
Speaker 3: olive person, and I'll have like just random olves in
Speaker 3: my fridge and I like to randomly snack on olives.
Speaker 3: Do you have a random snack that you're like? People
Speaker 3: will probably find the psycho behavior olives.
Speaker 2: I will only eat as a less resort because sometimes
Speaker 2: when I go to restaurants and the one vegan appetizer
Speaker 2: is olives, I'm like, well that's all.
Speaker 3: I have here, really, But do you like them or
Speaker 3: it's just like to survive.
Speaker 2: I don't not like them, but they're such a strong
Speaker 2: taste and that's the only way I can describe it
Speaker 2: like you bite into an olive and it's so like dominant,
Speaker 2: where it's like I'm going to be tasting this for
Speaker 2: the rest of the day.
Speaker 3: That is true. I mean I think I just love
Speaker 3: the saltiness of them.
Speaker 2: I think that's what it is. It's so I guess
Speaker 2: that's with the flavoring, right, It's just like salty sodium, Yeah, sodium.
Speaker 2: I tend to not like things with a lot of salt.
Speaker 2: Like if I can get chips with no salt, that's
Speaker 2: what I prefer.
Speaker 3: You're telling me you go to a Mexican restaurant and
Speaker 3: you're like, I would like tour tea chips with no salt.
Speaker 2: If they have the option. If I go to the
Speaker 2: grocery store get tortilla chips, I get the no salt.
Speaker 2: Not because if it's not even a healthing. I just
Speaker 2: like the flavor more. I feel like you get the
Speaker 2: flavor better with no salt. Otherwise I'm just tasting salt.
Speaker 3: The salt is what makes it so cunchy and tasty.
Speaker 2: I just like the straight flavor. I think I'm also
Speaker 2: that way with like sauces and hot sauces, Like I
Speaker 2: want the flavor of the food more so than the sauce,
Speaker 2: because like when it comes to spice, I can handle spicy.
Speaker 2: I grew up eating spicy things, but I feel when
Speaker 2: it's so spicy, it takes away from the flavor of
Speaker 2: the food and you're just tasting the heat. So I'm
Speaker 2: very much like I want the actual food to taste good.
Speaker 2: I don't need all the things on it.
Speaker 3: That makes sense, but also kind of zarchopoppya yeah wow,
Speaker 3: especially as someone who has to like tofu and other
Speaker 3: things where you have to really add a lot of flavoring,
Speaker 3: that shocks me. Especially like veggies. Yeah, you're just not
Speaker 3: adding salt onto any of that.
Speaker 2: If anything like black pepper, and then I'll make like
Speaker 2: veggies that give the flavor to it, like onions, bell pepper, tomato,
Speaker 2: like other vegetables that add flavor to the else you're making. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but straight up like, yeah, I don't really cook with salt,
Speaker 2: so I bet to other people the food I eat
Speaker 2: is super bland and you would hate my cooking. But
Speaker 2: that's how I like it.
Speaker 3: Does your wife like it that way?
Speaker 2: No, she likes salt. Okay, if she goes to a
Speaker 2: Mexican restaurant, she wants the salt on the chip. She
Speaker 2: wants the salt on the margarita.
Speaker 3: Who wins in the salt scenario usually.
Speaker 2: But she doesn't eat what I cook, so okay, she
Speaker 2: can make hers differently.
Speaker 3: So if she's cooking and there's always gonna be salt,
Speaker 3: if you're cooking, there's not going to be and then
Speaker 3: maybe you guys aren't eating each others.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: So often dinner times is not cooking the same way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay.
Speaker 3: Do you ever have like meals together that you cook
Speaker 3: together specifically?
Speaker 2: Usually if we do, it ends up a disaster. One
Speaker 2: time we try to make pizza and it was terrible.
Speaker 3: Why what have it?
Speaker 2: Well, she's gluten free, I'm vegan. It's impossible to make
Speaker 2: a gluten free vegan pizza at home. It falls apart.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2: So we made one that like fell up part it
Speaker 2: was totally undercooked and we had to make something else.
Speaker 2: So sometimes we try to make things together. I think
Speaker 2: the last time we made things together is probably a
Speaker 2: couple of Thanksgivings ago where we didn't go home and
Speaker 2: that's the only one that ever turned out right, and.
Speaker 3: You didn't try and build off of that scenario. No,
Speaker 3: I feel like it's just too tough. We'll not do this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think my weird snack. I think I'm
Speaker 2: the only person who really enjoys dates. M I like dates,
Speaker 2: but I get them like every single week. Like my
Speaker 2: fridge is not complete unless I have a giant thing
Speaker 2: of dates in there.
Speaker 3: And you just like chomp down on some dates.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I'll just get a bowl of dates, and
Speaker 2: that's I just that's my favorite snack.
Speaker 3: They are super filling, they're great. So how many can
Speaker 3: you have in one setting?
Speaker 2: I could eat like eight?
Speaker 3: Dang that is that's also kind of a sweet treat too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like for me, like a really good date tastes
Speaker 2: like a donut.
Speaker 3: Okay, don't. I don't know that I can see that,
Speaker 3: but I uh, I'll try to.
Speaker 2: I feel like it's an old person food. When I
Speaker 2: eat it, I'm like, I love me a bowl of dates.
Speaker 3: Maybe it is an old person food. It is a
Speaker 3: weird snack for sure. Like I have it, but I
Speaker 3: have to have it with other things like goat cheese
Speaker 3: or almond butter, honey or Himalayan salt, and you're like
Speaker 3: just straight up chalk down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if I really get crazy. I'll put like peanut
Speaker 2: butter or almond butter on it. That's like an extra treat.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just like a bowl of dates. And
Speaker 2: anybody I tell that to you like, you're the only
Speaker 2: person I've ever met who likes dates.
Speaker 3: You are, at least in that capacity. You for sure
Speaker 3: are Okay, those are our weird snacks. Maybe you can relate,
Speaker 3: maybe you cannot. We're gonna take one more quick break.
Speaker 3: We'll be right back, all right, Mike. I don't know
Speaker 3: if you're gonna have an answer for this one, but
Speaker 3: maybe you will.
Speaker 2: These are my favorite questions and this could be a.
Speaker 3: New side of you that we're gonna learn. When's the
Speaker 3: last time you were irrationally dramatic? So the reason I'm
Speaker 3: asking this is because I saw a spider in my
Speaker 3: bed and instead of trying to find it and killed it,
Speaker 3: I just let it go. And then I went downstairs
Speaker 3: and slept on the couch and was like, that's your bed.
Speaker 3: Now I'm just out, Like I was just intentionally very
Speaker 3: dramatic and said, Nope, this is not for me. I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna deal with this right now. I'm just gonna
Speaker 3: go sleep on the couch and it wasn't even like
Speaker 3: a large spider either. That's what's even funnier about it.
Speaker 3: It's like it's just a baby spider. But it was
Speaker 3: a spider in my bed, nonetheless, and we were both
Speaker 3: not gonna sleep there that night, So that's what it was.
Speaker 2: You're reminded me that I was supposed to kill a
Speaker 2: spider before I left the house today, and I don't
Speaker 2: think I did.
Speaker 3: That spider be living rent free in y'all's house.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go get that when I get home.
Speaker 3: Hopefully it's still in the same place.
Speaker 2: Yeah, hopefully they moved quickly. Pretty big too, was it.
Speaker 2: I worry less about big spiders. I feel like they
Speaker 2: just chill and you can catch them.
Speaker 3: That is not true if you have one that has
Speaker 3: a violin on its back. That's the brown recluse spider.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I got a bit by a black
Speaker 2: widow as a kid, and that's like a smaller spider,
Speaker 2: and those are deadly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like I think they're Honestly, it's funny. I don't
Speaker 3: know that they deserve the hate that they get, but
Speaker 3: I'm like, you got bit by a black widow, I
Speaker 3: got bit by brown and clothes brown clues can chop
Speaker 3: off your whole arm.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've seen horror video or pictures of that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and black widows are deadly. Like, so we got
Speaker 3: bit by two of the spiders. You don't want to
Speaker 3: be bit by. So I understand our dislike for them.
Speaker 3: But also they just like chillin', you know what I mean, Like,
Speaker 3: unless you come to them or you're in their space,
Speaker 3: they're just chillin They don't really actually want to be
Speaker 3: around you. Isn't that interesting?
Speaker 2: Yeah? But they set up the webs and you get
Speaker 2: caught in their web.
Speaker 3: And you're like, bro, oh, nothing is worse my porch.
Speaker 3: Nothing is worse than when you're mowing and like you
Speaker 3: just straight up walk into a spider web and you're like,
Speaker 3: where is the Spider's that's panic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the only time I freak out with spiders.
Speaker 2: Like if I just see one and have to get
Speaker 2: out of the house, I'm fine with that. But it's
Speaker 2: whenever you go through the web and you just don't
Speaker 2: know where it is, and then.
Speaker 3: You have the whole feeling all day. We're like it's
Speaker 3: on me, It's somewhere on me, and I don't know
Speaker 3: where it's at, Like that little feeling. Oh yeah, So
Speaker 3: that was my irrationally dramatic situation. Do you have fun?
Speaker 2: My most recent one is I am very particular on
Speaker 2: what time I need to do things. Okay, Like I
Speaker 2: have to drink my first sip of coffee at five
Speaker 2: thirty five am, no matter what, No matter what. I
Speaker 2: have these weird times where I set throughout my day
Speaker 2: of when I need to have certain things, And my
Speaker 2: second coffee of the day has to be at three PM.
Speaker 2: And me and my wife were going to go get
Speaker 2: coffee and she's like, oh, I'm still making lunch, we
Speaker 2: can go later, and we're gonna go at like three fifteen.
Speaker 2: I'm like, no, I have to have coffee at three pm.
Speaker 2: And I'm really weird, Like I just have this obsession
Speaker 2: with routines, and when things mess up my routines, I
Speaker 2: become irrational and I don't think the way I need to.
Speaker 2: So in that moment, I was like, no, we need
Speaker 2: to go at three, like I have this whole thing
Speaker 2: planned now. She was like, yo, we're gonna go at
Speaker 2: three fifteen. It'll be fine. But it's hard for me
Speaker 2: to process those things whenever I have some thing set
Speaker 2: because That's just how my life is.
Speaker 3: Is there anything else besides like the coffee in this scenario, Like,
Speaker 3: is there any other direct moments where you're like, this
Speaker 3: timing has to be perfect.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I have to wake up at the
Speaker 2: exact same time every day. Okay, an alarm for four twenty,
Speaker 2: and that is the time I wake up. There is
Speaker 2: no early, no less, no early, no last four twenty.
Speaker 2: I'm up five point thirty five. I have to have
Speaker 2: my coffee and my breakfast. I usually have to have
Speaker 2: my second snack of the day in the morning after
Speaker 2: nine am, So once nine am hits, that opens up
Speaker 2: my window. It's a little different here because we're live
Speaker 2: and I can't really leave at the specific time that
Speaker 2: I want to. But after nine am I'm clear for
Speaker 2: that second one, okay, and then throughout the rest of
Speaker 2: the day. The next one up that I have to
Speaker 2: do is the three pm coffee.
Speaker 3: That's a lot of coffee.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did drink a lot of coffee.
Speaker 3: I feel like this timeframe revolves around coffee and snacks.
Speaker 2: Coffee and snacks. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Interesting, Do you feel like it helps you survive better
Speaker 3: by having that? Like you've just figured that this works
Speaker 3: the best for your life, I think.
Speaker 2: So I think just once I set something and I
Speaker 2: know it's like coming. It's just that having something built in,
Speaker 2: because usually my days can kind of vary on when
Speaker 2: I do certain things. But having those built in things
Speaker 2: I can control just kind of help my brain work better.
Speaker 3: Okay, having control over coffee and snacks, I like it.
Speaker 2: And then there's just other things that I have to,
Speaker 2: like time out, Like if I'm going for a run,
Speaker 2: I have to stretch for six minutes and five seconds,
Speaker 2: specifically specifically because that's how much of time it takes
Speaker 2: to do all my stretches. I have to hit that
Speaker 2: six so five. I don't have to do it at
Speaker 2: a specific time, but I have a specific amount of
Speaker 2: time I dedicate to that.
Speaker 3: Do you think this is somewhat like related to OCD
Speaker 3: it all? Do you feel you have that?
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know. Maybe maybe on some
Speaker 2: some plane it is. And I'm even when I go
Speaker 2: watch movies, I hit. This is also for my podcast,
Speaker 2: but I hit like a timer, so I know exactly
Speaker 2: how long the movie is. But I think that's just
Speaker 2: the time thing is. I don't need it to hit
Speaker 2: at specific time. I just need to know.
Speaker 3: Maybe it's just the thing with time like that gives
Speaker 3: you control over something.
Speaker 2: Maybe I think I just like looking back at like
Speaker 2: stats too of like okay, this toock an hour?
Speaker 3: This are you analytical?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Very analytical?
Speaker 3: You're super creative though, so dang okay creative analytical Coffee
Speaker 3: on time, Mike.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just big on not even so much like
Speaker 2: strict times, just knowing the times that is going to go.
Speaker 3: That's fair. Okay, Well, last question for you before we
Speaker 3: get out of here. I'm planning to have some girlfriends
Speaker 3: over to stay over. Our adult sleepover is weird?
Speaker 2: I would love adult sleepover. That wish I had friends
Speaker 2: for that.
Speaker 3: Mike and I are gonna make me sad. I mean,
Speaker 3: I just didn't know if like having friends over at
Speaker 3: this day and age, not like somebody who comes in
Speaker 3: town and visits and says, I mean like your friends
Speaker 3: that are in town or whatever, and they come over
Speaker 3: and they stay the night, even though they have their
Speaker 3: own house.
Speaker 2: To go to. That's interesting. I guess I've never really
Speaker 2: thought of it that way. I think of it more
Speaker 2: as like people coming into town, because that happens with
Speaker 2: my wife's friends. They come over and it's like a sleepover.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's so much fun. So, like, is it
Speaker 3: weird that I also want to do it with my
Speaker 3: friends that are here and I just want them to
Speaker 3: come and stay over.
Speaker 2: I think that's a great idea. That's like nostalgic really
Speaker 2: when you think about it.
Speaker 3: Oh, and it just makes you happy. It gives you
Speaker 3: like happy serotonin vibes to have everybody at your house,
Speaker 3: because there's.
Speaker 2: A different vibe when somebody is coming over and they're
Speaker 2: going to stay. There's like this extra added level of comfort,
Speaker 2: especially as adultsy like you have a few drinks, you
Speaker 2: don't want anybody driving.
Speaker 3: M hmm.
Speaker 2: So is that comfort of like I'm staying here and
Speaker 2: they're just like an added fun to it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, at least that's what I feel like. But I
Speaker 3: didn't know if it was weird And other people are like,
Speaker 3: you're thirty years old, why are you doing that?
Speaker 2: I think at our age it's fine though, like maybe
Speaker 2: people in their forties it's different, you have kids, different,
Speaker 2: But I think in our phase of life it's perfectly fine.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, Well, as long as you say it's fine,
Speaker 3: then I'm not gonna care about that. One negative nolail exactly.
Speaker 3: No cares in the world. All right, Mike, Well, thank
