WEBVTT - Let’s Set Up Jason

0:00:01.000 --> 0:00:06.000
<v Speaker 1>This is the most dramatic podcast ever and iHeartRadio podcast.

0:00:07.920 --> 0:00:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Chris Harrison Lauren Zema coming to you from the home

0:00:10.119 --> 0:00:14.840
<v Speaker 1>office in Austin, Texas on this Christmas Week.

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Christmas Week, Christmas time is here? Are there not songs

0:00:20.880 --> 0:00:24.480
<v Speaker 2>from holiday movies that just stick in your head?

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:25.320
<v Speaker 3>Are lines that do?

0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Like?

0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:29.120
<v Speaker 2>There's probably I would say there is no genre of

0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:33.440
<v Speaker 2>movie rewatched more than holiday movies. I was reading the

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:37.080
<v Speaker 2>other day about how valuable the like ip is on

0:00:37.240 --> 0:00:40.640
<v Speaker 2>holiday movies because people just watch them over and over

0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:41.200
<v Speaker 2>and over again.

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I was trying to think of a holiday or

0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:44.160
<v Speaker 1>something else as like a genre.

0:00:44.240 --> 0:00:47.319
<v Speaker 3>You quote ELF all the time, year round. You quote ELF.

0:00:47.440 --> 0:00:49.680
<v Speaker 1>It's one of the greatest movies period. It's it's one

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.360
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite movies of all time, not like holiday movie,

0:00:52.880 --> 0:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>just one of my favorite movies of all time. I

0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 1>think it's genius.

0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:57.360
<v Speaker 3>I think, what is your favorite line from ELF?

0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's the one that gets me every time.

0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:03.319
<v Speaker 1>Is the coffee shop he walks in and yeah, you're

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:05.520
<v Speaker 1>walking he's walking through New York for the first time, obviously,

0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 1>and he sees if you've ever been to New York,

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:10.200
<v Speaker 1>it's like, you know, world's best pizza, world's best cup

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:12.440
<v Speaker 1>of coffee. And he sees that and he jumps in

0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:17.120
<v Speaker 1>and he says, congratulations, everybody, you did it. It's just

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>in the looks. It's not as much Will Ferrell's delivery,

0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:22.600
<v Speaker 1>which is genius, but the looks of the employees and

0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:25.160
<v Speaker 1>everybody in there is just like so New York.

0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:26.039
<v Speaker 2>And that so.

0:01:26.200 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 3>Applies year round.

0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:33.040
<v Speaker 2>If someone does something, Chris goes, congratulations, you did people.

0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Are like, you're an idiot. But I also like the

0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:36.679
<v Speaker 1>use of New York, like it was a really good,

0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>real character and there was a very good New York.

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Movie best uses of New York, well not best, but

0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:43.920
<v Speaker 2>up there Sex and the City and Elf the movie.

0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 1>It really is they did it. I mean, it's a

0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:46.959
<v Speaker 1>solid legit New York.

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 2>I would like to speak to someone about this, the

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:55.040
<v Speaker 2>chemical thing in our brain that instantly makes you remember

0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 2>like a quote or a song lyric. It will pop

0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:00.320
<v Speaker 2>in your brain like I did it. I just got

0:02:00.360 --> 0:02:02.480
<v Speaker 2>my haircut. I just came back from a haircut and

0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.400
<v Speaker 2>the wonderful woman. And by the way, if you're in Austin,

0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:10.079
<v Speaker 2>I love Deep Roots Salon. Specifically, the Cedar Park location

0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:14.120
<v Speaker 2>is incredible. Shout out to Tara and Mallory. But she

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:16.359
<v Speaker 2>was coloring my hair and she just said, you know,

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 2>yeah on my own, and in my brain I instantly

0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 2>go lay miz and I go on my own and

0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:23.840
<v Speaker 2>I did it, and I'm like, oh, I said to her.

0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:25.280
<v Speaker 2>She and I this is the first time she colored

0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:26.880
<v Speaker 2>my hair and said, well we know each other. Well,

0:02:26.960 --> 0:02:28.959
<v Speaker 2>now you know that I can't not go to musicals.

0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:31.200
<v Speaker 3>What is that in your brain?

0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Mike Trico, the Great, I don't know. There's there are

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 1>certain songs and I was thinking about Mike Terrico, the sportscaster.

0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:42.440
<v Speaker 1>He said this week he's like I watch Home Alone

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:45.519
<v Speaker 1>every year, and someone was giving him a hard time, like,

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:48.120
<v Speaker 1>come on, you really don't. And I'm like, we watch

0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Home Alone.

0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.639
<v Speaker 2>Every d You and I, with no kids in sight,

0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:54.400
<v Speaker 2>decorated the tree together and watched Home Alone.

0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:56.919
<v Speaker 1>We watched elfin Home Alone as we decorated the tree

0:02:56.919 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 1>and we cooked dinner.

0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:00.679
<v Speaker 2>I love background movies. You've seen them so many times

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 2>that you don't have to be actively watching. You were cooking,

0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:05.160
<v Speaker 2>I was putting up the tree, and we were half watching,

0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:05.799
<v Speaker 2>half listening.

0:03:06.040 --> 0:03:09.480
<v Speaker 1>My question for you, what's the Home Alone song that

0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:11.359
<v Speaker 1>pops in your head when you think Home Alone, what

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>is the song, what's the scene? What's the song? Because

0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:15.040
<v Speaker 1>that's your favorite movie.

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:18.400
<v Speaker 2>It's the When you hear the chorus of the kids,

0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:20.720
<v Speaker 2>it's it's kind of like when he's building up to

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 2>fight back against the you know, the Wet bandits, and

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:26.080
<v Speaker 2>you hear the little kids.

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 3>Schoir, they go, they go, fall on your knees. I

0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:36.680
<v Speaker 3>can't hit that. That falsett I.

0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 1>Is fall on your knees, the same as Dobby is free. Wow.

0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 3>If we're talking about movies, everybody.

0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if marriage has changed Chris Harrison, but

0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 2>I was taking a bath the other day, which I

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 2>could get into that whole thing.

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 3>Are you a bath person or not?

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:53.440
<v Speaker 1>No?

0:03:53.920 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 2>I am not, and yet I try to make myself

0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 2>do it sometimes because I think you but all I

0:03:58.640 --> 0:03:59.520
<v Speaker 2>do is get stressed out.

0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:00.600
<v Speaker 3>You appreciate that I'm.

0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Not a bath Frost, No, I appreciate that You're like,

0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 1>you have this beautiful bathtub in this beautiful house, and

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 1>you're like, I'm going to be this person and you're not, Like,

0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:09.360
<v Speaker 1>but you've tried.

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:11.600
<v Speaker 2>It's wasted on me. I feel bad, Like my sister

0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:14.360
<v Speaker 2>loves baths. Some you you either are a bath person

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:14.720
<v Speaker 2>or or not.

0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:16.719
<v Speaker 1>But I like that you go in with the intention

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.520
<v Speaker 1>of I'm going to have a real moment to myself

0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>and this spa like moment. And guys, five minutes later,

0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting text messages. I hear her in there and

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 1>it's not going well. She's she's a caged animal in

0:04:29.480 --> 0:04:29.960
<v Speaker 1>a bathtub.

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:30.760
<v Speaker 3>It's so boring.

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm sweaty. I'm like, am I cleaning? I'm just sweating

0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 2>in here. I don't think here's a real question.

0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:36.839
<v Speaker 1>Huh.

0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Little kids aside, Like kids are different. If you're an

0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:42.320
<v Speaker 2>adult and you take a bath, are you clean afterwards?

0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:43.840
<v Speaker 1>No, you're just stewing in your own juice.

0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:45.280
<v Speaker 3>That's what I think. I'm like, I got to take

0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:45.600
<v Speaker 3>a shower.

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>There's no good. Yeah, you have to show I always

0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:49.920
<v Speaker 1>if I can't remember the last time I took a bath,

0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:51.000
<v Speaker 1>maybe when I was What.

0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:53.240
<v Speaker 3>Can you use our bathtub? Because then someone will be No,

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 3>I do not like baths.

0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Why not If I'm sore or sick and it's like

0:04:57.800 --> 0:04:59.160
<v Speaker 1>we have a hot tub, I'd rather go get the

0:04:59.240 --> 0:04:59.640
<v Speaker 1>hot tub.

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:02.560
<v Speaker 3>Interesting, Well, yeah, you know what I agree with you?

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Actually, yeah, okay, Well I'm in the bath and I

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 2>come out and I realize, well, I've been wasting my

0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:11.560
<v Speaker 2>time in the bath. You have been on your own

0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:14.680
<v Speaker 2>watching a Harry Potter.

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:17.640
<v Speaker 3>Movie, which is why he just brought up Dobby Dolby

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 3>is Free.

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:21.240
<v Speaker 1>I take Apparently it's the worst one. Your least favorite

0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Chamber of Secrets.

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:28.880
<v Speaker 2>Chamber of Secrets is it's not my least favorite book,

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.000
<v Speaker 2>but I do think it's maybe the worst movie.

0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:33.920
<v Speaker 3>Interesting, Okay, acting wise, the kids didn't know how to

0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:34.360
<v Speaker 3>act yet.

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:36.480
<v Speaker 2>In the first movie, you forgive them. You're like, these

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.040
<v Speaker 2>are young kids, they're acting for the first time. I

0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:41.560
<v Speaker 2>don't expect it to be that great. The third movie,

0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:43.279
<v Speaker 2>you're like, Okay, the acting is still.

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:47.400
<v Speaker 3>Not that great. The story, some of the lines, some

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.360
<v Speaker 3>of the shots, it's just not great. What did you

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:53.440
<v Speaker 3>here's my question, what made you just actively on your

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:55.080
<v Speaker 3>own when watching Harry Potter movie?

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Marriage has changed me. The only reason I ever stop

0:05:58.360 --> 0:05:59.840
<v Speaker 1>at Harry Potter movies is because of you.

0:06:00.200 --> 0:06:01.119
<v Speaker 3>But what is the reason?

0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>I just want to? And it's funny because I don't

0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 1>sit and watch all of them, and I have still

0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:07.920
<v Speaker 1>not watched all of them, and then and it's kind

0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 1>of fun. And I wonder if you're envious of me

0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:13.080
<v Speaker 1>because I was watching Chamber of Secrets for the first

0:06:13.120 --> 0:06:14.599
<v Speaker 1>time last night, what.

0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:17.480
<v Speaker 2>I would give to experience the reveals of the Harry

0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:18.360
<v Speaker 2>Potter series again.

0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:20.320
<v Speaker 1>I did not know who opened the Chamber of Secrets,

0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:23.840
<v Speaker 1>and I knew it wasn't Hagrid. He's too lovable, and

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 1>because I've seen him in other parts of the movies

0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:29.080
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, nope, he's a lovable figure. The only

0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:31.760
<v Speaker 1>way he would have done it is stupidly on accident,

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:36.080
<v Speaker 1>because he is a bumbling fool at times times and

0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:38.200
<v Speaker 1>well all the time. That's his character. And so I

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:40.040
<v Speaker 1>was like, Okay, maybe he did it on accident, but

0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:42.680
<v Speaker 1>I knew he was being set up. But yeah, it's

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:45.240
<v Speaker 1>because of you that I've just I will watch these

0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:46.720
<v Speaker 1>and I will eventually watch them.

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.000
<v Speaker 3>All that makes me feel so loved.

0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:51.480
<v Speaker 2>When that makes me feel so loved, and it makes

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.599
<v Speaker 2>me wonder if I should be watching more.

0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Sports for you, okay, hot take. I have also not

0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:01.560
<v Speaker 1>watched the other ones, the New Zealand ones, because we

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:03.280
<v Speaker 1>went to New Lord of the Rings. I have not

0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:06.160
<v Speaker 1>watched Lord of the Rings either. I've seen parts of

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:07.200
<v Speaker 1>it were you.

0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:09.760
<v Speaker 3>The Lord of the Rings movies were so big.

0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:10.000
<v Speaker 1>I.

0:07:12.160 --> 0:07:13.560
<v Speaker 3>Know what we're doing.

0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:15.600
<v Speaker 1>They just don't appeal to me. I guess that that

0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>type of sci fi does not appeal to me. I

0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:20.720
<v Speaker 1>was definitely in the Star Wars generation that came out

0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.440
<v Speaker 1>when I was seven or eight years old. That captured

0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:25.560
<v Speaker 1>my imagination. Never a Star Trek.

0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 3>You think you didn't go?

0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Is that it? Or I have heard from people because

0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:30.680
<v Speaker 2>when the Lord of the Rings movies came out, you

0:07:30.840 --> 0:07:32.960
<v Speaker 2>had young kids, and I do feel like when you're

0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 2>a parent and you have young kids, you're so busy

0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:37.720
<v Speaker 2>with that that you kind of miss out on like.

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Cultural is that when those came out early two thousandar

0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:43.880
<v Speaker 1>two thousand, then I if it wasn't animated, I can

0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 1>tell you about every animated movie from two thousand and

0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:50.440
<v Speaker 1>one through twenty ten, like all the Cars, and by

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.920
<v Speaker 1>the way, it was an unbelievable Hall of Fame home

0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:58.160
<v Speaker 1>run set of animation at that time, like all the

0:07:58.200 --> 0:07:59.800
<v Speaker 1>great movies came out at.

0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 3>That time time, Like I'm trying to think of one,

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:03.440
<v Speaker 3>but I was all the.

0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 1>Cars, all the Nemos, all the toy stories.

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:08.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I mean well, toy stories started mid nineties

0:08:09.160 --> 0:08:11.280
<v Speaker 2>and then first toy stories like ninety four.

0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:15.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, maybe Josh just got caught the tail into those. Yeah,

0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 1>but we had a great run. Enchanted another one that

0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:20.080
<v Speaker 1>was good, we got weir got animated, half anime.

0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:21.960
<v Speaker 3>Half of it was it finding mema. I'll give you.

0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Cars, okay, but anyway, so we digress.

0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 3>So thank you for watching the Harry Potter movies. It

0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:28.400
<v Speaker 3>makes me feel loved.

0:08:28.440 --> 0:08:30.600
<v Speaker 2>And also thank you for saying I don't have to

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:33.240
<v Speaker 2>start watching sports. Can I make an argument for something.

0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:38.280
<v Speaker 2>I think movies are a more neutral thing than sports,

0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Like it's a more all encompassing, like there can be

0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.559
<v Speaker 2>sports moviessier to say on common ground, right, But so

0:08:45.040 --> 0:08:49.560
<v Speaker 2>I think a person should be more inclined, Like if

0:08:49.600 --> 0:08:52.320
<v Speaker 2>someone's like who you're dating says I love this movie,

0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:54.559
<v Speaker 2>I think you should be more inclined to give that

0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.000
<v Speaker 2>movie a shot than like a whole type of activity.

0:08:57.080 --> 0:08:57.679
<v Speaker 3>Does that make sense?

0:08:57.720 --> 0:08:59.319
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, I agree. I see where you're coming. And

0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:02.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm just making the case for myself not watching sports movie. Okay,

0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:05.840
<v Speaker 1>there's a good chance I'm gonna like something about your movie.

0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:08.040
<v Speaker 3>I would watch a sports movie with you. I like

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:09.240
<v Speaker 3>a lot of movies about sports.

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Like if you say to me, you may not love

0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:15.000
<v Speaker 1>this movie, but Chris Pine's in it, or Stanley Tucci's

0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:16.199
<v Speaker 1>in it, I'm like, okay, I'm in.

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:19.880
<v Speaker 3>You can find an entry. Yeah, exactly, Really sports, I

0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:20.760
<v Speaker 3>got nothing the touch.

0:09:21.679 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 1>And so Merry Christmas. Weeke to everybody. I hope everybody's

0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:27.760
<v Speaker 1>kind of heading home wherever you are, and the kids

0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:30.600
<v Speaker 1>are coming home. Lauren and I just tried to drive

0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 1>from Fort Worth yesterday back home to Austin, and it's literally,

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:37.160
<v Speaker 1>I think everybody in the world was on the road,

0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 1>so truly everyone's heading home for the holidays.

0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:42.160
<v Speaker 3>And so it's by the way, you casually dropped in

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:43.160
<v Speaker 3>that we went to New Zealand.

0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:09:45.679 --> 0:09:47.880
<v Speaker 2>First of all, I don't want to go on about

0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:49.160
<v Speaker 2>it too long as we have so much to get to.

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:53.439
<v Speaker 2>But beautiful country. I ran around quoting the Hobbit as

0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 2>I guess you just have to gorgeous beaches, gorgeous mountains,

0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:01.439
<v Speaker 2>the kindest people. And the whole reason we went was

0:10:01.520 --> 0:10:06.240
<v Speaker 2>because these dear friends of ours. Actually the guy who

0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:09.320
<v Speaker 2>officiated our wedding and his wonderful wife who sang at

0:10:09.760 --> 0:10:10.760
<v Speaker 2>our welcome dinner.

0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:13.640
<v Speaker 3>She is from there and they have a home there

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:14.559
<v Speaker 3>that they just finished.

0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:17.280
<v Speaker 2>But what this kind of got us talking about, like

0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:18.559
<v Speaker 2>we were there for a while, we went there for

0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:22.800
<v Speaker 2>a week, is what is a gauge of a friend

0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:25.880
<v Speaker 2>you can really travel with? Like I think it's so

0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.320
<v Speaker 2>important for couples to have couple friends. And we've talked

0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 2>about this, but it's a whole different thing when you're

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.680
<v Speaker 2>talking about going to dinner with another couple versus traveling.

0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:36.400
<v Speaker 3>And you have a great phrase for.

0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.760
<v Speaker 1>This boat people, yacht people, boat people.

0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:41.559
<v Speaker 3>Can you explain that it is?

0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.560
<v Speaker 1>If you are stuck on a boat, you're traveling, You're

0:10:44.600 --> 0:10:46.760
<v Speaker 1>not stuck with them. Who would you choose to go

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 1>on vacation with? And say you're on a yacht. You're

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:53.240
<v Speaker 1>on a boat that has two rooms, four rooms, whatever,

0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:56.240
<v Speaker 1>so you were in pretty confined quarters. These are people

0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:59.040
<v Speaker 1>You're going to be on top of a lot on

0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:01.839
<v Speaker 1>this boat, going to have to eat, drink and sleep

0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:04.679
<v Speaker 1>with them. You will not sleep sleep with them, but

0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:06.520
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, You're going to see each

0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:08.319
<v Speaker 1>other close quarters, Yes, close quarters.

0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:10.480
<v Speaker 3>In a hotel, you can escape on a boat, you can, right.

0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:12.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I was like, Hey, we're gonna we're gonna walk

0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:14.480
<v Speaker 1>into town. We're gonna and you're like, oh my god,

0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I can't I can't get away from Bob and Marie

0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.600
<v Speaker 1>fast enough. Who are you know? You can't You're stuck.

0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.520
<v Speaker 1>You can't walk on water, you can't disappear. You're stuck

0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 1>with these people who are your boat people? Because I

0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:27.599
<v Speaker 1>would contest there are people you would travel with that

0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:29.400
<v Speaker 1>still aren't boat people.

0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:35.880
<v Speaker 3>This is the best level, yes, of Like I mean,

0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:37.120
<v Speaker 3>is it the best level of friendship?

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:40.160
<v Speaker 2>It's definitely just a certain level of friendship where it's

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.480
<v Speaker 2>someone you can easily be around NonStop.

0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:44.120
<v Speaker 1>These are your I guess the kids would call it

0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 1>your ride or die.

0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 2>What are the parameters for this? What are the boxes

0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:49.560
<v Speaker 2>to check if to know if someone's your boat person?

0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 1>After three days you don't want to murder them?

0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:53.160
<v Speaker 2>That's it.

0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:55.319
<v Speaker 1>It's three day tests.

0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:57.640
<v Speaker 3>You know, it's a three days you call it boat people,

0:11:57.720 --> 0:11:59.280
<v Speaker 3>or you could call it won't murder them people.

0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 1>It's uh, it's the three day fish test. You know,

0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.199
<v Speaker 1>you leave leaf fish out on the dock for three days.

0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:06.439
<v Speaker 1>At third day it's it's spoiled.

0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:08.000
<v Speaker 3>Really, you think they're the first two days.

0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:11.439
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just learning that that test of just not

0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 1>wanting to do physical harm of like I can't be

0:12:14.480 --> 0:12:18.160
<v Speaker 1>with these people for one more minute that laugh or

0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:20.800
<v Speaker 1>that obnoxious whatever, or they drink too much or they

0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is, those annoying, annoying characteristics that you just

0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:26.640
<v Speaker 1>can't stand after three days, that's it.

0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:29.880
<v Speaker 2>I think the people generally have to be positive people,

0:12:30.120 --> 0:12:32.160
<v Speaker 2>Like that's a huge part. You can't have someone who's

0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:35.680
<v Speaker 2>a complainer or negative like you know every day, yeah, the.

0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Person that finds the you know, gray cloud in the

0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:39.439
<v Speaker 1>silver line.

0:12:39.520 --> 0:12:41.439
<v Speaker 2>Well, or even if it's their sense of humor, like

0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 2>some people are really funny, but their sense of humors

0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:46.760
<v Speaker 2>kind of making fun of things that can get old.

0:12:47.360 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 2>I think you have to be around people who are

0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:52.720
<v Speaker 2>generally positive. I think critically they have to be up

0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:55.560
<v Speaker 2>for things like yeah, let's go to dinner, Yeah let's

0:12:55.600 --> 0:12:59.000
<v Speaker 2>try that hike. It can't be like, you know, I'm

0:12:59.080 --> 0:13:01.240
<v Speaker 2>just the stay at home person or they and they

0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:02.760
<v Speaker 2>have to go with the flow of the group.

0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, you got to match I think the energies

0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:10.000
<v Speaker 1>and ideas and activities like you got to match up

0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:13.560
<v Speaker 1>and whatever that is. If you're all we sit by

0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 1>the pool all day, people great but if if one

0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:19.800
<v Speaker 1>group or one couple is we sit by the pool

0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.920
<v Speaker 1>and sip on my ties and just get sun, and

0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:25.840
<v Speaker 1>then the other group is we like to go spearfishing

0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:29.200
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, and surfing and hiking and they're very active,

0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:30.560
<v Speaker 1>that will not work.

0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.680
<v Speaker 2>You're right, you've defined the I mean it's like a relationship,

0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:37.400
<v Speaker 2>and just like a relationship, I think with friendship, traveling

0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:39.600
<v Speaker 2>together can be a real test of a friendship.

0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.080
<v Speaker 1>But the most difficult thing is it's easy to find.

0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.240
<v Speaker 1>It's easier to find that in a relationship because you're

0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.839
<v Speaker 1>finding it with one person. It is so hard to

0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:50.520
<v Speaker 1>find husband and wife, man and well or whatever, just

0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:53.600
<v Speaker 1>just the both of a couple. You're finding two humans

0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:56.599
<v Speaker 1>that you get along with. How often is it, you know,

0:13:56.679 --> 0:13:59.199
<v Speaker 1>we love her, but oh the or we love him,

0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:02.000
<v Speaker 1>but oh the w and so you got to match up.

0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.079
<v Speaker 2>It's more challenging to find boat people than it is

0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:18.679
<v Speaker 2>to find the life partner. Yeah, not only is it

0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:21.320
<v Speaker 2>a big week because of the holiday, but we're coming

0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:24.080
<v Speaker 2>off of some pretty big podcast episodes for you.

0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I had a huge response. Thank you to everyone

0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:31.640
<v Speaker 1>who listened to the Jason Tarctic podcasts. We did two

0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:33.520
<v Speaker 1>episodes because it was just too good. We had to

0:14:33.560 --> 0:14:37.120
<v Speaker 1>break it up and to sit down with Jason. Was

0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:42.560
<v Speaker 1>received very well. Overall, it was received well. You know,

0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:44.680
<v Speaker 1>I did. I talked a little bit about this on

0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:48.640
<v Speaker 1>social media. I got a couple of messages, where's the tea,

0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:53.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm not learning anything new. I dealt with that a

0:14:53.400 --> 0:14:58.240
<v Speaker 1>little bit of that's not what this was about. That's

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:01.800
<v Speaker 1>not that wasn't my goal, and I will admit there's

0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>a little hypocrisy for twenty years. That is what I did.

0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:07.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, I would go for some of that meat

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:10.680
<v Speaker 1>because that was the show and that was the advice.

0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:12.960
<v Speaker 2>You know what, though you told me after the interview,

0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:14.840
<v Speaker 2>I did not listen to it. I was in the

0:15:14.880 --> 0:15:16.280
<v Speaker 2>other room, and I was just kind of because you

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:18.080
<v Speaker 2>and Jason have a great relationship. I just wanted to

0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.440
<v Speaker 2>let you do it because I knew that you were

0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:22.240
<v Speaker 2>going to probably get into some stuff about Caitlin. But

0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:26.600
<v Speaker 2>after you guys recorded, you told me later who said, look,

0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:29.760
<v Speaker 2>before we went into it, I did think maybe we'll

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:32.960
<v Speaker 2>really dig in and maybe we'll get some answers on things.

0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:36.479
<v Speaker 2>But in the moment, and I think this is commendable

0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.200
<v Speaker 2>to you because you got both types of moments. For

0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:41.520
<v Speaker 2>years on the show, you got the emotional moment and

0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.800
<v Speaker 2>the revealing moments, sometimes both in one. But you made

0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:46.720
<v Speaker 2>the call in the moment with Jason to just say,

0:15:46.760 --> 0:15:49.920
<v Speaker 2>you know what, he's still so emotional and raw about this,

0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:53.200
<v Speaker 2>that this is not the time as both his friend

0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:57.880
<v Speaker 2>and someone interviewing him to dig deep like he's still

0:15:58.080 --> 0:16:00.400
<v Speaker 2>his emotions are still so at the serve this, that

0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:02.680
<v Speaker 2>this isn't the let's dive in and I want you

0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:04.120
<v Speaker 2>to spill all the team moments well.

0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:07.840
<v Speaker 1>And we set some parameters as we started, because he

0:16:08.040 --> 0:16:11.600
<v Speaker 1>was really concerned and respectful about Caitlin. He did not

0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:14.800
<v Speaker 1>want this to come off as start this whole he said.

0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:16.520
<v Speaker 1>She said thing, And I didn't either, because you know,

0:16:16.840 --> 0:16:19.440
<v Speaker 1>it's interesting when you're doing an interview. And again I

0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 1>said this, it was a guy who broke up with someone,

0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:23.560
<v Speaker 1>but it's a guy who broke up with a friend

0:16:23.560 --> 0:16:26.200
<v Speaker 1>of ours, like I like Caitlyn, I respect her. This

0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:28.640
<v Speaker 1>wasn't about let's bury Caitlin and.

0:16:28.680 --> 0:16:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Who's right ahead of the wedding, we were both texting

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:32.640
<v Speaker 2>both of them like, hey, how are you guys at?

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:34.120
<v Speaker 3>Where are you guys at? We wanted both of them

0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:35.640
<v Speaker 3>to feel super comfortable at the way, and.

0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:39.240
<v Speaker 1>He did actually give me a lot of leeway to

0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:41.360
<v Speaker 1>go there, and I could have asked some of these

0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:46.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of pointed questions, and you're right in that it

0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:49.760
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel right now. We did dig deep in a

0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:52.800
<v Speaker 1>different direction. We just got so emotional and it got

0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:56.520
<v Speaker 1>so heavy and the show really became about loss and

0:16:56.560 --> 0:16:58.640
<v Speaker 1>about breakups. And I thought it was so much more

0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:02.120
<v Speaker 1>effective and really latable to all of you that this

0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:04.040
<v Speaker 1>wasn't the time for that. And we even said after

0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:06.600
<v Speaker 1>because it was exhausting, and we had a drink and

0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.600
<v Speaker 1>he's like, you know, maybe someday we revisit this and

0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:12.680
<v Speaker 1>when things aren't so fresh and you know that the

0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:15.119
<v Speaker 1>wounds have healed a little bit for both of them.

0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:18.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, they were together for I mean, we started dating

0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:20.720
<v Speaker 2>like at a similar time they did, so they'd been

0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:21.920
<v Speaker 2>together four years.

0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:24.240
<v Speaker 3>Five yeah, four or five years. I mean, I remember,

0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:27.119
<v Speaker 3>because I think I think I broke the news.

0:17:27.240 --> 0:17:29.680
<v Speaker 2>I remember I interviewed Jason like right when they'd kind

0:17:29.680 --> 0:17:32.119
<v Speaker 2>of first flirted, and I'm pretty sure I broke the

0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:33.960
<v Speaker 2>news at the time, like, oh no, they're really going

0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:37.880
<v Speaker 2>out together, right, So I remember that moment, and you know, again,

0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:40.120
<v Speaker 2>we love them both and want the best for both

0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:42.600
<v Speaker 2>of them, but it does seem like, like I want

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:44.160
<v Speaker 2>to get into We actually have a couple of really

0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:47.080
<v Speaker 2>good questions from all of you that we pulled from

0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:50.439
<v Speaker 2>our DMS to ask because there are still follow up questions.

0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:55.359
<v Speaker 2>But my first question is, after that interview, do you

0:17:55.600 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 2>think there's any reconciliation to happen in the future between

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:00.400
<v Speaker 2>the two of them?

0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:04.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean you romantically, oh, as I say, because the've

0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.960
<v Speaker 1>they've reconciled, which I really appreciated. And I will add

0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:09.800
<v Speaker 1>that Jason even talked to Caitlin post, you know, to

0:18:09.880 --> 0:18:12.040
<v Speaker 1>let her know this is coming out. But we were

0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:15.399
<v Speaker 1>very respectful and Caitlin, to my knowledge, has no problem

0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:17.720
<v Speaker 1>with anything that was said, which is wonderful. And it

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:21.000
<v Speaker 1>also shows how much they've both grown and they can

0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:24.080
<v Speaker 1>be respectful and start talking. And I think our wedding

0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:26.720
<v Speaker 1>had a lot to do with that. We did joke

0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:28.760
<v Speaker 1>about that in the podcast. You know, there was that

0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:30.600
<v Speaker 1>moment you were sitting there too with me when they

0:18:30.640 --> 0:18:33.600
<v Speaker 1>were by our refrigerator in our kitchen and they were.

0:18:33.520 --> 0:18:36.520
<v Speaker 3>Both kind of you know, on the wedding weekend body.

0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:38.800
<v Speaker 1>Language was palpable at the party we had here the

0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:42.520
<v Speaker 1>night before our wedding, but it didn't go there. He

0:18:42.640 --> 0:18:47.080
<v Speaker 1>did admit that I don't see it going there. I

0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:50.280
<v Speaker 1>don't think they should. I think they have made a

0:18:50.359 --> 0:18:54.560
<v Speaker 1>clean break. And while I think sometimes we and I

0:18:54.640 --> 0:18:57.760
<v Speaker 1>say we as fans of them, want that to happen,

0:18:57.920 --> 0:18:59.680
<v Speaker 1>like it would just make us all feel good, I

0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:02.480
<v Speaker 1>don't know if that's what's best for them. I think

0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:05.879
<v Speaker 1>they are growing and going in different directions, and I

0:19:06.000 --> 0:19:07.280
<v Speaker 1>respect that for both of them.

0:19:07.560 --> 0:19:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's this leads into Christa's question. Christa says Chris

0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Jason didn't make it clear why he and Caitlyn decided

0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:18.200
<v Speaker 2>to break up. What happened, or I'll add, what do

0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:19.119
<v Speaker 2>you think happened?

0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:25.840
<v Speaker 1>I know some stuff that happened, you know, from both

0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:27.640
<v Speaker 1>of them, and it's not I'm not going to say

0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:30.680
<v Speaker 1>it was her fault, his fault. It does not matter.

0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:35.600
<v Speaker 1>And I guess that's my main takeaway from the podcast

0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:39.840
<v Speaker 1>was I don't care, and I don't want you to care.

0:19:39.880 --> 0:19:41.840
<v Speaker 1>And I know we all kind of have this insatiable

0:19:41.880 --> 0:19:44.639
<v Speaker 1>appetite for come on, man, give me the dirt, but

0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:48.200
<v Speaker 1>it just I it wasn't about that for me in

0:19:48.280 --> 0:19:51.320
<v Speaker 1>that interview, and I didn't want it to become about that. So,

0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:55.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, none of our business. And I thought about

0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:59.600
<v Speaker 1>myself in my divorce or breakups I've had, and like,

0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:01.879
<v Speaker 1>we don't want to talk about that. I don't care

0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:03.640
<v Speaker 1>whose fault it is. I don't want that to come out.

0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:06.240
<v Speaker 3>I also think that when people have been together that long,

0:20:06.760 --> 0:20:08.199
<v Speaker 3>it's not just one thing, of.

0:20:08.280 --> 0:20:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Course, you know.

0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:11.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if somebody's in just a relationship a couple

0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:13.920
<v Speaker 2>of months and you could you break up, you could

0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:15.479
<v Speaker 2>write it off as you know, he was just too

0:20:15.520 --> 0:20:17.800
<v Speaker 2>full of himself, right, Or maybe you're dating six months

0:20:17.800 --> 0:20:19.359
<v Speaker 2>and you find out somebody cheated, Well, I thought I

0:20:19.440 --> 0:20:20.720
<v Speaker 2>knew him and he didn't he cheated, And I don't

0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:22.680
<v Speaker 2>even want to waste any more time. But years and

0:20:22.800 --> 0:20:26.200
<v Speaker 2>years in, it's about it's not that simple. It's about

0:20:26.400 --> 0:20:29.160
<v Speaker 2>more than just an easy answer. I think in every situation,

0:20:29.240 --> 0:20:31.359
<v Speaker 2>and there's rumors out there. You can go online and

0:20:31.480 --> 0:20:33.520
<v Speaker 2>go on the deep reddit web.

0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:36.360
<v Speaker 1>And reddit web, you can go go on drws. Yeah,

0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:38.960
<v Speaker 1>and there's plenty of rumors and in your windows. I'll

0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:40.200
<v Speaker 1>leave that to the tabloids.

0:20:41.160 --> 0:20:45.280
<v Speaker 2>Next up, Ashley says, Jason talked about his age and

0:20:45.359 --> 0:20:47.399
<v Speaker 2>how he wants to find his person and start a family.

0:20:47.480 --> 0:20:48.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it's for me, She says.

0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 2>I have a question for Lauren. Before meeting Chris after

0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:54.600
<v Speaker 2>your divorce, did you panic about meeting someone?

0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:57.080
<v Speaker 3>Great question, Ashley.

0:20:57.160 --> 0:20:59.680
<v Speaker 2>Jason and I talked about this just like before and

0:21:00.000 --> 0:21:02.159
<v Speaker 2>after you guys went into record as well, because I

0:21:02.200 --> 0:21:04.680
<v Speaker 2>think we're about the same age. I just turned thirty six,

0:21:04.800 --> 0:21:08.159
<v Speaker 2>I think Jays thirty five, and he was telling me that,

0:21:08.320 --> 0:21:09.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, I know he told you that too, and

0:21:10.359 --> 0:21:15.119
<v Speaker 2>I said, like Jason, the answer, the quick answer is no,

0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.800
<v Speaker 2>I was not worried about it. Now. Granted, part of

0:21:18.840 --> 0:21:20.879
<v Speaker 2>that was probably that I'd been married and I'd just

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.560
<v Speaker 2>gotten divorced, and I was sort of like, you know,

0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:25.960
<v Speaker 2>I was. I was ready to be out of this

0:21:26.000 --> 0:21:28.639
<v Speaker 2>situation I was in, So I was just feeling some

0:21:28.800 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 2>relief there.

0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Yet.

0:21:30.800 --> 0:21:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think if you're at in your early mid

0:21:33.119 --> 0:21:35.800
<v Speaker 2>thirties and you have not been married yet, it's impossible

0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:36.520
<v Speaker 2>to not feel that.

0:21:36.640 --> 0:21:38.240
<v Speaker 3>There's that societal pressure.

0:21:38.800 --> 0:21:41.600
<v Speaker 2>You're scared you're losing time, you feel like, you know,

0:21:41.640 --> 0:21:44.359
<v Speaker 2>I should be having kids, and you feel all that.

0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:48.400
<v Speaker 2>But no, I wasn't, and I guess I would say

0:21:48.440 --> 0:21:53.280
<v Speaker 2>to everybody, really try to not be. I think losing

0:21:53.400 --> 0:21:57.159
<v Speaker 2>my dad taught me this. You just don't know what

0:21:57.359 --> 0:22:00.520
<v Speaker 2>life has planned for you. I mean, my dad died

0:22:00.560 --> 0:22:03.000
<v Speaker 2>in his early fifties, like pretty close to your age,

0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:05.960
<v Speaker 2>and there were a bunch of things he still wanted

0:22:06.000 --> 0:22:08.240
<v Speaker 2>to do, you know, but there are also a bunch

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:11.120
<v Speaker 2>of things he did. And I've really taken that lesson

0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:14.160
<v Speaker 2>with me of like, I think you can find happiness

0:22:14.320 --> 0:22:19.240
<v Speaker 2>and sorrow at any age in life, and this, you know,

0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:22.040
<v Speaker 2>panic is really just a product of what we think

0:22:22.080 --> 0:22:23.199
<v Speaker 2>our cultural norms are.

0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:26.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but you had some advice for Jason.

0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Well well, and Jason did say He's like, you know,

0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:30.760
<v Speaker 1>we wasted some good years and we've lost some good years.

0:22:30.800 --> 0:22:33.320
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, you know, thirty to thirty four, you.

0:22:33.359 --> 0:22:35.440
<v Speaker 3>Know, you know you're looking at it going, dude, you're

0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:36.000
<v Speaker 3>still a baby.

0:22:36.160 --> 0:22:41.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but I have the benefit and experience of time,

0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:45.800
<v Speaker 1>so I can look back and realize thirty to thirty four, man,

0:22:45.840 --> 0:22:47.879
<v Speaker 1>I was still figuring things out, and so is he,

0:22:48.560 --> 0:22:51.359
<v Speaker 1>And so I get that obviously you don't know what

0:22:51.440 --> 0:22:53.920
<v Speaker 1>you don't know, and he hasn't lived those those extra years,

0:22:53.960 --> 0:22:56.320
<v Speaker 1>in that extra decade, and so, you know, I look

0:22:56.359 --> 0:23:01.240
<v Speaker 1>at myself and to your point you just made fantastically

0:23:02.280 --> 0:23:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Did I think I would meet the love of my

0:23:04.000 --> 0:23:07.360
<v Speaker 1>life at forty seven. No, I thought it would happen

0:23:07.400 --> 0:23:09.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot earlier. I thought I would have met the

0:23:09.320 --> 0:23:11.000
<v Speaker 1>love of my life and someone who you know. But

0:23:11.359 --> 0:23:14.520
<v Speaker 1>that's when it happened, and that's when I gave myself

0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:17.080
<v Speaker 1>the grace and allowed that to happen. And now I'm

0:23:17.119 --> 0:23:20.359
<v Speaker 1>the happiest I've ever been in my early fifties. And

0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:23.560
<v Speaker 1>so who's to say when it's supposed to happen, And

0:23:23.840 --> 0:23:26.240
<v Speaker 1>who's to say if it had worked out with Caitlin

0:23:26.280 --> 0:23:28.080
<v Speaker 1>and they did get married, that that would have been

0:23:28.119 --> 0:23:30.560
<v Speaker 1>the one. You don't know what life's going to throw

0:23:30.600 --> 0:23:33.160
<v Speaker 1>at you, so give yourself a little bit of a break.

0:23:33.359 --> 0:23:35.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I was just talking to somebody the other day about,

0:23:36.640 --> 0:23:38.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, because like a lot of young people have

0:23:38.080 --> 0:23:40.600
<v Speaker 2>been through the pandemic right now, Like this was someone

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:42.760
<v Speaker 2>who's in their twenties and they were like, well, my

0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:44.480
<v Speaker 2>twenties are supposed to be this really fun time, but

0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:46.600
<v Speaker 2>the pandemic screwed it up. And I get that my

0:23:46.640 --> 0:23:48.000
<v Speaker 2>twenties are supposed to be really fun.

0:23:48.280 --> 0:23:49.960
<v Speaker 3>My dad dud and the.

0:23:50.040 --> 0:23:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Recession happened and there were no jobs. But like, my

0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:56.720
<v Speaker 2>thirties have been amazing, you know. And I would also

0:23:56.880 --> 0:23:59.560
<v Speaker 2>hope that life only keeps getting better. I know life

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:03.000
<v Speaker 2>will also continue to send hardships our way, but I've

0:24:03.080 --> 0:24:06.000
<v Speaker 2>just always approached it with like the outlook of it's

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:07.200
<v Speaker 2>only going to get better from here.

0:24:07.280 --> 0:24:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Well, and look, when you take the knife out

0:24:09.560 --> 0:24:11.440
<v Speaker 1>of the wound, it's pretty raw. It's hard to have

0:24:11.680 --> 0:24:15.040
<v Speaker 1>perspective of what I'm grateful for. But you and I

0:24:15.320 --> 0:24:18.440
<v Speaker 1>have this already about our first marriages. There are things

0:24:18.480 --> 0:24:23.200
<v Speaker 1>we're both grateful for, and you can take that later.

0:24:23.520 --> 0:24:25.520
<v Speaker 1>And I think Jason will look back and be like, oh,

0:24:25.720 --> 0:24:29.119
<v Speaker 1>that relationship with Kitlyn wasn't wasted time. I'm grateful that

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:31.240
<v Speaker 1>I learned this. I learned this about myself. Even if

0:24:31.280 --> 0:24:33.800
<v Speaker 1>it's only learning about yourself and you were with someone

0:24:33.840 --> 0:24:37.440
<v Speaker 1>who was bad, then you're still learning and now you're

0:24:37.520 --> 0:24:40.200
<v Speaker 1>growing and you are a better, bigger person. As you

0:24:40.280 --> 0:24:42.720
<v Speaker 1>head into the next relationship, Jason will know what he's

0:24:42.760 --> 0:24:45.800
<v Speaker 1>looking for more so so well, Caitlin. Next time they'll

0:24:45.840 --> 0:24:46.879
<v Speaker 1>be better prepared well.

0:24:46.960 --> 0:24:50.960
<v Speaker 2>That leads into Laurie's question. She says, Chris, what type

0:24:51.000 --> 0:24:53.680
<v Speaker 2>of partner do you think would be the right fit

0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:54.320
<v Speaker 2>for Jason.

0:24:55.760 --> 0:24:58.200
<v Speaker 1>Jason's a big he's a big lover man. He's a

0:24:58.240 --> 0:25:01.840
<v Speaker 1>big Buffalo lover. He's he's from Buffalo. He's from Buffalo.

0:25:04.800 --> 0:25:07.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like, he's a down home boy. Family means

0:25:07.480 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 1>everything to him. Loyalty, that that type of person that's

0:25:13.480 --> 0:25:16.320
<v Speaker 1>just going to really kind of dive in with him.

0:25:16.520 --> 0:25:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Jason is such a good dude. Can I say, like, so,

0:25:18.680 --> 0:25:20.840
<v Speaker 2>when you guys did the podcast, he stayed at our house.

0:25:21.000 --> 0:25:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Yes, not all guests get to sleep over.

0:25:24.119 --> 0:25:28.840
<v Speaker 3>We've never wait, we've never had someone from the show

0:25:29.040 --> 0:25:30.160
<v Speaker 3>no sleep.

0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:31.879
<v Speaker 1>Oh you're right, yeah, no one has. Yeah, he is

0:25:31.920 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 1>the first to fly to sleep over. Yeah, Firestones here.

0:25:38.200 --> 0:25:39.800
<v Speaker 3>No, oh, you know what they did at our house

0:25:39.840 --> 0:25:41.520
<v Speaker 3>in La Okay, Firestone, I know.

0:25:41.640 --> 0:25:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, people have spent the night at my house in

0:25:43.040 --> 0:25:45.080
<v Speaker 1>La before, but no one in Austin. Yeah, no one

0:25:45.119 --> 0:25:46.959
<v Speaker 1>in Austin. I told him he was the first one

0:25:47.000 --> 0:25:49.280
<v Speaker 1>I've interviewed here in Austin. And then obviously he stayed

0:25:49.280 --> 0:25:50.480
<v Speaker 1>and we went to dinner afterwards.

0:25:50.680 --> 0:25:52.240
<v Speaker 3>Well, it was great.

0:25:52.320 --> 0:25:56.119
<v Speaker 2>To get I had never had that, like one on

0:25:56.280 --> 0:26:00.400
<v Speaker 2>one hangout, just not interviewed time with him as much. Yeah,

0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:05.240
<v Speaker 2>and little things you can tell. I think they're a

0:26:05.280 --> 0:26:08.200
<v Speaker 2>little basic, tried and true tests of what kind of

0:26:08.240 --> 0:26:13.360
<v Speaker 2>person somebody is. Manners, helpfulness. Jason left his room. I'm

0:26:13.359 --> 0:26:15.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna give him a shout out. Jason Tartik left his

0:26:15.320 --> 0:26:18.080
<v Speaker 2>room spotless. He made the bet, he hung up his towel.

0:26:18.480 --> 0:26:21.080
<v Speaker 2>His room was spotless when he left. Not only did

0:26:21.160 --> 0:26:22.879
<v Speaker 2>he do that, he said, Hey, you guys are going

0:26:22.880 --> 0:26:23.560
<v Speaker 2>to the airport too.

0:26:24.200 --> 0:26:25.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, I have a car. Do you want to just

0:26:25.359 --> 0:26:25.920
<v Speaker 3>jump in with me?

0:26:26.560 --> 0:26:28.760
<v Speaker 1>Not only did he do that, getting him to the

0:26:28.800 --> 0:26:31.080
<v Speaker 1>airport three hours early for his flight and on time

0:26:31.160 --> 0:26:31.480
<v Speaker 1>for ours.

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:33.200
<v Speaker 3>Yes, that's a sacrifice.

0:26:33.280 --> 0:26:35.600
<v Speaker 1>And I went to the gym, worked doubt, and then

0:26:35.640 --> 0:26:37.560
<v Speaker 1>we came back and we were leaving town going to

0:26:37.600 --> 0:26:39.840
<v Speaker 1>the airport, and I had to, you know, put out

0:26:39.880 --> 0:26:42.159
<v Speaker 1>the trash, and so I was breaking down boxes. So

0:26:42.400 --> 0:26:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Jason started breaking down boxes. He literally took.

0:26:45.359 --> 0:26:45.960
<v Speaker 3>Out our trash.

0:26:46.040 --> 0:26:49.800
<v Speaker 2>He broke down my many Amazon cardboard boxes that I'd

0:26:49.840 --> 0:26:50.840
<v Speaker 2>had from wedding stuff.

0:26:51.400 --> 0:26:53.879
<v Speaker 3>Jason just helped break down boxes at our house. So

0:26:54.000 --> 0:26:57.159
<v Speaker 3>he is he's just as good as he seems.

0:26:57.359 --> 0:26:59.119
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's good people, and he's going to do

0:26:59.280 --> 0:27:01.480
<v Speaker 1>just fine. He'll find somebody. It's it's weird.

0:27:01.560 --> 0:27:02.159
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't know.

0:27:02.240 --> 0:27:03.560
<v Speaker 3>This might go into Hannah's question.

0:27:03.720 --> 0:27:08.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Hannah asks Chris, do you think Jason would be

0:27:08.280 --> 0:27:11.239
<v Speaker 2>good on another reality dating show one?

0:27:12.400 --> 0:27:14.680
<v Speaker 1>I think he'd be fantastic on a reality dating show.

0:27:15.119 --> 0:27:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I would love to produce a show for Jason Tartick

0:27:18.840 --> 0:27:20.920
<v Speaker 1>to help him find love. I think that would be

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:24.200
<v Speaker 1>a great show. And I think he'd be wonderful because

0:27:24.200 --> 0:27:26.959
<v Speaker 1>he's so sincere, he's so honest. You're going to get

0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:29.119
<v Speaker 1>such raw emotion from him. What you know, I'm a

0:27:29.160 --> 0:27:31.359
<v Speaker 1>big fan of people of what you see is what

0:27:31.480 --> 0:27:34.399
<v Speaker 1>you get. You know, Sean Lowe was that whether you

0:27:34.520 --> 0:27:36.040
<v Speaker 1>like him or not, it's like, what you see is

0:27:36.080 --> 0:27:39.159
<v Speaker 1>what you get. That that was him, and so I

0:27:39.280 --> 0:27:40.720
<v Speaker 1>think he would be wonderful.

0:27:40.760 --> 0:27:43.119
<v Speaker 3>And I think h championing for Jason to be the Bachelor.

0:27:43.240 --> 0:27:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was me and Bennett one of the other

0:27:45.680 --> 0:27:48.880
<v Speaker 1>executive producers at the time, benn At Grabner also also

0:27:48.960 --> 0:27:50.840
<v Speaker 1>from Buffalo, So I think there was a Buffalo thing.

0:27:51.960 --> 0:27:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Some the other people just weren't having it, probably because

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:58.320
<v Speaker 1>we did like him, and I forget who we went

0:27:58.359 --> 0:28:02.280
<v Speaker 1>with instead, care member. Oh gosh, Welton, Well we did

0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:05.879
<v Speaker 1>get the bench. It's all as a Jason. You couldn't

0:28:05.880 --> 0:28:08.720
<v Speaker 1>have made that jump. You're not that athletic. But no,

0:28:08.960 --> 0:28:11.480
<v Speaker 1>and answer to your question, yes, I think he would.

0:28:12.000 --> 0:28:13.960
<v Speaker 1>It would be too soon to do it right this minute,

0:28:14.119 --> 0:28:15.600
<v Speaker 1>but he would be really good.

0:28:16.440 --> 0:28:19.119
<v Speaker 3>All right. Just two more quick questions they kind of

0:28:19.160 --> 0:28:23.840
<v Speaker 3>go together, Brett says Chris. I have a question. Do

0:28:23.960 --> 0:28:26.720
<v Speaker 3>you think crying is a weak thing for men to do?

0:28:27.200 --> 0:28:28.000
<v Speaker 3>This is a quick answer.

0:28:28.160 --> 0:28:32.280
<v Speaker 1>No, absolutely not. Take it from a guy who bawled

0:28:32.320 --> 0:28:35.840
<v Speaker 1>like a baby at both of my weddings. I cry

0:28:35.920 --> 0:28:38.200
<v Speaker 1>all the time with my daughter, and yeah, no, it's

0:28:38.920 --> 0:28:42.360
<v Speaker 1>it is not only not a weak thing, it's necessary

0:28:42.720 --> 0:28:44.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's the most empowering, wonderful thing.

0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:45.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that you want to be the one

0:28:46.000 --> 0:28:50.760
<v Speaker 2>who's always crying, right, but I think there's nothing stronger

0:28:51.360 --> 0:28:57.040
<v Speaker 2>than showing your emotions, and crying is so vulnerable, and

0:28:57.600 --> 0:28:59.080
<v Speaker 2>there's strength in that vulnerability.

0:29:00.240 --> 0:29:00.640
<v Speaker 3>Colleen.

0:29:00.800 --> 0:29:03.040
<v Speaker 2>I will finish off with this question from Colleen and

0:29:03.120 --> 0:29:07.400
<v Speaker 2>at piggybacks off, bretts Chris, how did you learn how

0:29:07.480 --> 0:29:10.560
<v Speaker 2>to handle people crying to you. You were so good

0:29:10.600 --> 0:29:13.280
<v Speaker 2>at this on the show and on this podcast episode

0:29:13.320 --> 0:29:13.800
<v Speaker 2>with Jason.

0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:15.960
<v Speaker 1>It was off putting it first. It was something I

0:29:16.000 --> 0:29:17.400
<v Speaker 1>had to learn. It was a skill I had to learn.

0:29:17.560 --> 0:29:19.720
<v Speaker 1>I was a dad and so I had a crying

0:29:19.800 --> 0:29:21.800
<v Speaker 1>baby at the time. Josh was very young, so I

0:29:21.880 --> 0:29:24.760
<v Speaker 1>wasn't used to really people crying to me on an

0:29:24.760 --> 0:29:28.160
<v Speaker 1>emotional level like that. So I really didn't know how

0:29:28.360 --> 0:29:31.960
<v Speaker 1>to handle it. But I just think it fit in

0:29:32.080 --> 0:29:34.720
<v Speaker 1>with my Midwestern disposition and the way I grew up

0:29:34.800 --> 0:29:38.440
<v Speaker 1>to be a caretaker, to be empathetic, to listen it.

0:29:38.600 --> 0:29:42.640
<v Speaker 1>It really taught me to just shut up and listen

0:29:43.280 --> 0:29:46.000
<v Speaker 1>because in that moment, people don't need to be fixed.

0:29:46.320 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 1>They don't need to be told what was right, what

0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:51.000
<v Speaker 1>was wrong, whose fault it was, or they definitely don't

0:29:51.040 --> 0:29:53.760
<v Speaker 1>need the I told you so, they just need to

0:29:53.800 --> 0:29:57.120
<v Speaker 1>cry and they need to just vent, and so just

0:29:57.280 --> 0:30:01.280
<v Speaker 1>being there and it's a skill I learned for sure

0:30:01.440 --> 0:30:03.760
<v Speaker 1>over the last twenty years and has helped me be

0:30:03.840 --> 0:30:07.600
<v Speaker 1>a better husband, a better parent, a better friend, and

0:30:07.840 --> 0:30:10.200
<v Speaker 1>a better podcaster. Sitting with Jason, it allowed me to

0:30:11.160 --> 0:30:15.320
<v Speaker 1>not be uncomfortable and not be awkward. I was like,

0:30:15.800 --> 0:30:17.680
<v Speaker 1>I love you, man, Like let it out, like, let's

0:30:17.720 --> 0:30:21.120
<v Speaker 1>talk about this and not try and jump in and

0:30:22.360 --> 0:30:24.960
<v Speaker 1>ease the moment. Let him cry, like, let him have

0:30:25.040 --> 0:30:28.120
<v Speaker 1>that moment he needed to get that out. It was

0:30:28.160 --> 0:30:28.920
<v Speaker 1>really cathartic.

0:30:29.200 --> 0:30:32.280
<v Speaker 2>And I hate and I do this myself too. For

0:30:32.400 --> 0:30:34.080
<v Speaker 2>some reason, when we all cry, we go to the

0:30:34.200 --> 0:30:36.680
<v Speaker 2>like I'm sorry, Like I'm sorry, I'm crying. This is embarrassing,

0:30:36.680 --> 0:30:40.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. Jokey, yeah, And I think especially guys, you know,

0:30:40.080 --> 0:30:43.080
<v Speaker 2>they're like, I'm sorry this, I hate this. And I

0:30:43.120 --> 0:30:45.840
<v Speaker 2>guess that just comes from somewhere in society that tells us,

0:30:46.480 --> 0:30:48.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, don't cry, and that's weak. But I'm so

0:30:49.120 --> 0:30:51.200
<v Speaker 2>ready for that to be a mindset of the past.

0:31:02.920 --> 0:31:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for the questions, by the way, everybody, and thanks

0:31:04.920 --> 0:31:07.280
<v Speaker 1>for I mean, these were two of our biggest podcasts

0:31:07.320 --> 0:31:08.680
<v Speaker 1>that we have ever dropped, and a lot of that

0:31:08.800 --> 0:31:11.560
<v Speaker 1>COEs to the demand that Jason is in his popularity.

0:31:11.640 --> 0:31:14.600

<v Speaker 1>these questions. But thank you very much. We have to

0:31:40.920 --> 0:31:44.360
<v Speaker 1>before we wrap this up. Huge news Oprah.

0:31:45.280 --> 0:31:46.360
<v Speaker 3>Oprah's always huge news.

0:31:46.400 --> 0:31:48.880
<v Speaker 1>The Oprah. She turned seventy. First of all, Happy birthday, Oprah.

0:31:49.040 --> 0:31:50.800
<v Speaker 3>An icon. It's a trailblazer.

0:31:50.880 --> 0:31:53.160
<v Speaker 1>It's weird. I know she's been in our lives for forever,

0:31:53.320 --> 0:31:56.840
<v Speaker 1>but she's so timeless. To me, she doesn't grow old.

0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.720
<v Speaker 1>It's does she like I mean, I saw a picture

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:00.720
<v Speaker 1>of I.

0:32:00.720 --> 0:32:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Think she looks amazing, but b she is always so

0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:07.400
<v Speaker 2>energetic and positive that I think it feels youthful.

0:32:07.560 --> 0:32:08.960
<v Speaker 1>One of the things I want to talk about. And

0:32:09.000 --> 0:32:11.120
<v Speaker 1>she's an icon and someone I respect and I know

0:32:11.200 --> 0:32:13.200
<v Speaker 1>you do too, as far as a journalist and things

0:32:13.240 --> 0:32:15.800
<v Speaker 1>she accomplished in this business. But besides that, there's a

0:32:15.840 --> 0:32:18.760
<v Speaker 1>reason she looks so fantastic, and she talked about that,

0:32:19.200 --> 0:32:22.720
<v Speaker 1>and she has been very open about being on a

0:32:22.840 --> 0:32:23.600
<v Speaker 1>weight loss drug.

0:32:23.760 --> 0:32:25.800
<v Speaker 2>We wanted to talk about it because I feel like

0:32:25.880 --> 0:32:28.280
<v Speaker 2>you and I talk about this a lot, like I mean,

0:32:28.680 --> 0:32:31.840
<v Speaker 2>for everybody the ozembic weight loss drug conversation.

0:32:32.080 --> 0:32:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, what's the other one? Yeah?

0:32:35.120 --> 0:32:36.000
<v Speaker 3>No, not with maybe.

0:32:37.360 --> 0:32:40.080
<v Speaker 2>I think you're right, but it has been I mean

0:32:40.160 --> 0:32:44.880
<v Speaker 2>I've listened to other podcasts on it, and what's fascinating

0:32:45.000 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 2>is the conversation keeps continuing.

0:32:47.120 --> 0:32:50.080
<v Speaker 3>And I think it's because this drug is not done.

0:32:50.160 --> 0:32:52.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, we've talked to friends of ours who own

0:32:52.480 --> 0:32:55.400
<v Speaker 2>a pharmacy and they're telling us, well, this is bigger

0:32:55.400 --> 0:32:57.760
<v Speaker 2>than the biggest drug ever is known as viagra. And

0:32:57.840 --> 0:33:01.640
<v Speaker 2>this is bigger because it can apply to both, you know,

0:33:01.920 --> 0:33:05.480
<v Speaker 2>sides of the population, men and women, and because you

0:33:05.560 --> 0:33:07.840
<v Speaker 2>know a lot of people want to be on it,

0:33:07.880 --> 0:33:11.480
<v Speaker 2>whether it's for health issues or just for aesthetic purposes.

0:33:11.800 --> 0:33:15.160
<v Speaker 2>It's controversial, but also you know, are people on it

0:33:15.240 --> 0:33:17.720
<v Speaker 2>in secret? A lot of celebrities seem to be. So

0:33:17.840 --> 0:33:21.360
<v Speaker 2>the conversation just keeps happening, and we have more questions

0:33:21.400 --> 0:33:24.400
<v Speaker 2>than answers, I think because I've been hearing and reading

0:33:24.520 --> 0:33:26.920
<v Speaker 2>articles about how you know it's going to be start

0:33:27.200 --> 0:33:29.120
<v Speaker 2>to be used on kids if it isn't already. So

0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:34.160
<v Speaker 2>lots of questions, lots of backlash, and I was fascinated

0:33:34.200 --> 0:33:35.400
<v Speaker 2>by and I said, we got to talk about the

0:33:35.440 --> 0:33:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Oprah of it all, because my question here is can

0:33:39.480 --> 0:33:42.720
<v Speaker 2>a reveal from Oprah that she is on a weight

0:33:42.760 --> 0:33:46.280
<v Speaker 2>loss medication and a proud reveal she said, she's the

0:33:46.400 --> 0:33:50.200
<v Speaker 2>quote is I am absolutely done with the shaming end quote.

0:33:50.760 --> 0:33:53.840
<v Speaker 2>She said she is using weight loss medication as a

0:33:54.040 --> 0:33:58.800
<v Speaker 2>maintenance tool. And you know she touches on in this

0:33:59.080 --> 0:34:02.600
<v Speaker 2>in this It's People magazine cover story, she touches on

0:34:02.640 --> 0:34:04.960
<v Speaker 2>her past because Oprah's known for being open about her

0:34:05.000 --> 0:34:07.520
<v Speaker 2>weight struggles. Right that the famous Your career, Yeah, the

0:34:07.520 --> 0:34:09.719
<v Speaker 2>famous episode she pulled out the wagon that had like

0:34:09.880 --> 0:34:11.960
<v Speaker 2>the representation of all the fat on her body that

0:34:12.040 --> 0:34:12.520
<v Speaker 2>she'd lost.

0:34:12.800 --> 0:34:14.840
<v Speaker 1>And she's yo yo through the years. So the marathon

0:34:14.960 --> 0:34:16.759
<v Speaker 1>stuff and all that that, it's always been a thing

0:34:16.880 --> 0:34:17.200
<v Speaker 1>with her.

0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:19.879
<v Speaker 3>So she said, quote, it was public sport to make

0:34:19.960 --> 0:34:20.400
<v Speaker 3>fun of me.

0:34:20.560 --> 0:34:23.760
<v Speaker 2>For twenty five years, I have been blamed and shamed,

0:34:23.840 --> 0:34:27.319
<v Speaker 2>and I blamed and shamed myself. She talks about being

0:34:27.400 --> 0:34:32.919
<v Speaker 2>called dumpy and frumpy by tabloids, and now she says

0:34:33.040 --> 0:34:36.359
<v Speaker 2>that as she is set to term seventy, she wants

0:34:36.400 --> 0:34:39.279
<v Speaker 2>to maintain a healthy weight long term be done with

0:34:39.400 --> 0:34:42.919
<v Speaker 2>the shame and that she is on a weight loss

0:34:43.000 --> 0:34:48.200
<v Speaker 2>medication after what she calls weight fluctuations over fifty years

0:34:48.239 --> 0:34:50.120
<v Speaker 2>of her life. She says, yes, I did the yo

0:34:50.200 --> 0:34:53.120
<v Speaker 2>yo thing. She said, I believe my willpower was failing

0:34:53.280 --> 0:34:56.520
<v Speaker 2>and she's done with it. So can Oprah being this

0:34:56.880 --> 0:35:00.920
<v Speaker 2>open and this positive turn the tide, can it stop

0:35:01.000 --> 0:35:01.560
<v Speaker 2>the backlash?

0:35:01.600 --> 0:35:02.719
<v Speaker 3>Does she have the power to do that?

0:35:04.000 --> 0:35:08.960
<v Speaker 1>She does for sure? If I'm being Devil's advocate, this

0:35:09.520 --> 0:35:15.000
<v Speaker 1>is a wonderful find and an invention that we discovered this,

0:35:15.560 --> 0:35:17.400
<v Speaker 1>And I do want to talk to medical experts to

0:35:17.480 --> 0:35:22.319
<v Speaker 1>see is it a ninety nine percent chance that it's

0:35:22.360 --> 0:35:24.279
<v Speaker 1>going to be okay and there's really only a one

0:35:24.320 --> 0:35:25.640
<v Speaker 1>percent chance this can happen to you?

0:35:26.000 --> 0:35:26.320
<v Speaker 2>Or is it?

0:35:26.800 --> 0:35:28.360
<v Speaker 3>Those are the big questions that I have.

0:35:28.560 --> 0:35:31.160
<v Speaker 2>I feel the percentage Well, I just want like the

0:35:31.400 --> 0:35:34.920
<v Speaker 2>real story from someone, because I think there's a lot

0:35:35.040 --> 0:35:42.239
<v Speaker 2>of a lot of arguing, a lot of probably misinformation

0:35:42.320 --> 0:35:43.840
<v Speaker 2>out there. I'm just like, I want to know that.

0:35:44.320 --> 0:35:46.480
<v Speaker 2>I'll use myself as an example because we do want

0:35:46.480 --> 0:35:48.840
<v Speaker 2>to have someone if I went on this tomorrow, what

0:35:48.880 --> 0:35:50.560
<v Speaker 2>would the risks be for me? Like, That's what I

0:35:50.640 --> 0:35:52.359
<v Speaker 2>want to know, and I know the answer isn't going

0:35:52.400 --> 0:35:54.680
<v Speaker 2>to be the same for everybody, but I just want

0:35:54.719 --> 0:35:56.920
<v Speaker 2>to know what are the risks if you're kind of

0:35:57.280 --> 0:36:00.120
<v Speaker 2>a healthy weight in only taking it to lose some weight. Now, well,

0:36:00.480 --> 0:36:03.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying, you know, listen, Oprah, this was her choice,

0:36:03.600 --> 0:36:04.759
<v Speaker 2>Like she said, she struggled with.

0:36:04.800 --> 0:36:05.279
<v Speaker 3>It for years.

0:36:05.640 --> 0:36:07.720
<v Speaker 2>I bring this up and I was fascinated by it because,

0:36:08.400 --> 0:36:11.120
<v Speaker 2>like how some real housewives have admitted to being on it,

0:36:11.280 --> 0:36:13.400
<v Speaker 2>some have been accused of being on it and haven't

0:36:13.400 --> 0:36:17.439
<v Speaker 2>admitted whether they are or not. But I do think

0:36:17.600 --> 0:36:21.160
<v Speaker 2>Oprah has the power to maybe quiet some of the

0:36:21.280 --> 0:36:25.840
<v Speaker 2>backlash because I think people respect that she's already shared

0:36:25.840 --> 0:36:28.680
<v Speaker 2>her journey and spent years of struggle.

0:36:29.160 --> 0:36:33.440
<v Speaker 1>There is a new podcast called Two Jersey Jays with

0:36:33.680 --> 0:36:39.359
<v Speaker 1>Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Fessler. By the way, with iHeartRadio

0:36:39.560 --> 0:36:42.840
<v Speaker 1>happens to be under the most dramatic pod umbrella, so

0:36:43.520 --> 0:36:46.400
<v Speaker 1>our shout out to the Two Jersey Jays, who are

0:36:46.440 --> 0:36:48.920
<v Speaker 1>in the top ten of all podcasts. So congratulations, ladies.

0:36:49.000 --> 0:36:51.920
<v Speaker 1>But they are talking a lot about ozempic. One of

0:36:51.960 --> 0:36:54.600
<v Speaker 1>them very much on it, the other one not quiet and.

0:36:54.840 --> 0:36:56.560
<v Speaker 2>Was she the one who had the major medical issue.

0:36:57.239 --> 0:37:00.480
<v Speaker 2>There was a real housewife who was hospitalized and.

0:37:00.560 --> 0:37:03.320
<v Speaker 1>So I'll let you look that up. And they're talking

0:37:03.400 --> 0:37:06.400
<v Speaker 1>a lot about that. So give give two Jersey Jays

0:37:06.680 --> 0:37:09.680
<v Speaker 1>a listen where all podcasts can be found. I'm proud

0:37:09.680 --> 0:37:13.400
<v Speaker 1>of them for doing a great job. And another medical

0:37:13.480 --> 0:37:16.000
<v Speaker 1>question I really want to dive into is what is

0:37:16.120 --> 0:37:18.960
<v Speaker 1>the percentage of fat you're losing? What is the percentage

0:37:18.960 --> 0:37:21.200
<v Speaker 1>of muscle you're losing? Are you losing the muscle mass?

0:37:21.239 --> 0:37:24.359
<v Speaker 1>And you know, everyone kind of has this ozimpic body

0:37:24.400 --> 0:37:27.600
<v Speaker 1>they're talking about, and that is the kind of stuff

0:37:27.680 --> 0:37:29.400
<v Speaker 1>that because I'm really into the health stuff and so

0:37:29.520 --> 0:37:33.360
<v Speaker 1>are you and eating healthy and all that, and I

0:37:34.239 --> 0:37:37.160
<v Speaker 1>encourage people to get that info. But we are going

0:37:37.200 --> 0:37:40.200
<v Speaker 1>to have these medical experts on very soon on one

0:37:40.239 --> 0:37:42.719
<v Speaker 1>of our episodes to dive more into this. But I mean,

0:37:42.760 --> 0:37:44.360
<v Speaker 1>this is how crazy it is. I went to breakfast

0:37:44.400 --> 0:37:46.439
<v Speaker 1>with two of my buddies this morning. We were talking

0:37:46.480 --> 0:37:49.440
<v Speaker 1>about it. We were talking about ozimpic. So it's at

0:37:49.480 --> 0:37:52.680
<v Speaker 1>every breakfast table and every dinner table, and it's a

0:37:52.760 --> 0:37:55.360
<v Speaker 1>big hot topic and I am a big fan, and

0:37:55.440 --> 0:37:57.719
<v Speaker 1>so is Lauren of Let's get the facts.

0:37:57.719 --> 0:37:59.160

0:37:59.200 --> 0:38:03.240
