<v Speaker 1>My name is Lyle Man. What's going on?

0:01:07.080 --> 0:01:07.560
<v Speaker 3>Hey, Lyle?

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:11.240
<v Speaker 2>I was calling to talk about my work. I work

0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:14.559
<v Speaker 2>at Dominoes and I'm a delivery driver there.

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, what's that like?

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:20.160
<v Speaker 2>So within the first three weeks I had the classic

0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:24.600
<v Speaker 2>delivery drivers situation. I went to a motel. This lady

0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 2>opens up the door completely but snaked, and then she

0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:31.840
<v Speaker 2>kind of closed the door real quick, and then she

0:01:31.880 --> 0:01:35.160
<v Speaker 2>opened it fully back up again, and she gave me

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:38.399
<v Speaker 2>the money. And yeah, that was like my third or

0:01:38.400 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 2>fourth week there.

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.319
<v Speaker 1>Wait, you said she hold on, you said you said

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:47.000
<v Speaker 1>she opened the door. She so she opens the door,

0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>takes the piece, uh, closes the door, opens back up,

0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 1>gives you the money.

0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:54.960
<v Speaker 2>No, no, So she she opens up the door like

0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 2>a little bit at first to see who it is,

0:01:57.800 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 2>and like I could see like half of her body,

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:02.400
<v Speaker 2>and I can see that she's not wearing any clothes.

0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:04.560
<v Speaker 2>She then closes the door a little bit as if

0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:06.920
<v Speaker 2>she's gonna put clothes on or something. But then she

0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:10.800
<v Speaker 2>just swam like swings it right back open and I

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:12.160
<v Speaker 2>just see her full.

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:17.799
<v Speaker 1>She's just there and we're talking completely naked, and there's

0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:20.800
<v Speaker 1>no it's not like a robe. It's like completely fully,

0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:21.920
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent.

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:26.359
<v Speaker 2>Naked, not even socks nothing, that just yes, completely naked.

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:29.520
<v Speaker 1>What was her facial ex was it? Was she bashful

0:02:29.560 --> 0:02:33.080
<v Speaker 1>about her or was she was it a very proud nakedness.

0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:38.880
<v Speaker 2>That's what I don't know, man, because it got me

0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.079
<v Speaker 2>thinking because she closed the door. It seemed like out

0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:44.200
<v Speaker 2>of shame, right, but then she opens it back up,

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 2>almost like you said, almost proud. So I don't know.

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:50.880
<v Speaker 2>It really baffled me and I still think about it sometimes.

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Uh did you have a like what was the extent

0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:55.880
<v Speaker 1>of your interaction?

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:02.240
<v Speaker 2>She was at some motel and so someone pointed me

0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:04.800
<v Speaker 2>in her direction because I was like my first time there,

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:06.720
<v Speaker 2>and so as soon as I get to the door,

0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I just knock it. As soon as she opens it,

0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:12.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, hey, how much it is? I try not

0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:16.360
<v Speaker 2>to be I didn't acknowledge it in any way. I

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:19.200
<v Speaker 2>just kind of mad, tried to maintain eye contact.

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.919
<v Speaker 1>Respect. Respect was part of you secretly hoping that she

0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:27.640
<v Speaker 1>would invite you in to share the pizza.

0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:34.240
<v Speaker 2>No, no, not at all. I have I have a girlfriend.

0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:36.920
<v Speaker 2>So I was more mortified than anything.

0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Wow, you're a true professional Aiden.

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:48.040
<v Speaker 2>Thank you. It really took a lot of took a

0:03:48.040 --> 0:03:51.160
<v Speaker 2>lot in me not to not to say anything. But

0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, I told everyone at work right when I.

0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Got back, and they were I did. Everyone at work

0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:57.800
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, yeah, I remember the first time that

0:03:57.840 --> 0:03:58.360
<v Speaker 1>happened to me.

0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 2>One person said it happened to them, but everyone else

0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 2>was pretty shocked. But I mean I work in a

0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 2>pretty interesting area. We get a lot of interesting people.

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Anything else happened to you? The note h.

0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:24.080
<v Speaker 2>There's a I mean there was a time that I

0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:27.160
<v Speaker 2>delivered to someone at like nine or ten at night

0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 2>and they it looked like there was a gun on

0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.720
<v Speaker 2>their waist and it kind of scared me because we

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:36.760
<v Speaker 2>were out and they were just like walking down the street.

0:04:38.480 --> 0:04:41.680
<v Speaker 2>But I had nothing came from that. We have this

0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:43.719
<v Speaker 2>old gun guy comes in all the time.

0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Gun guy. I'll take the naked lady over the gun

0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:48.760
<v Speaker 1>guy anytime.

0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, for sure. I think the gun guy happened

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:58.480
<v Speaker 2>on my second second night. It was one of my

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:02.600
<v Speaker 2>first nights, my first The few weeks there were the craziest.

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:08.040
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever encountered a naked lady with a gun?

0:05:12.440 --> 0:05:17.360
<v Speaker 2>You know I have not yet. I'll keep an eye out.

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:22.000
<v Speaker 2>There is some guy who he always is walking down

0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:26.040
<v Speaker 2>the street that my Dominoes is on and is there's

0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.400
<v Speaker 2>no music, no headphones, nothing in his ears, but he's

0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:31.800
<v Speaker 2>just dancing down the street. Sometimes he's got a like

0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:35.640
<v Speaker 2>a bag or a shopping cart. I also sometimes see

0:05:35.680 --> 0:05:39.400
<v Speaker 2>him at the dumpster right behind our store. So he

0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 2>makes it. He walks all the way.

0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you think he knows something about the universe that

0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:48.799
<v Speaker 1>we don't or do you think he's on drugs or both?

0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:51.120
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely?

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:51.440
<v Speaker 3>Both.

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>It's got to be something. I mean, there's no way

0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 2>someone's just that happy all the time.

0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Are you happy?

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:01.719
<v Speaker 2>I am happy?

0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:04.679
<v Speaker 1>What makes what makes you happy? Aiden?

0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:07.840
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:15.039
<v Speaker 2>My girlfriend really makes me happy. Ah, she's waving at you.

0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:22.240
<v Speaker 1>What else makes? I?

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:28.839
<v Speaker 2>Really? Love my job? I love driving, despite despite sometimes

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:32.719
<v Speaker 2>not getting you know, the best tips. I love doing it.

0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:36.960
<v Speaker 2>I love the people I work with. My three cats

0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:37.920
<v Speaker 2>make me happy.

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:38.880
<v Speaker 3>My dog.

0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Who who tipped more between the gun guy and the

0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:47.599
<v Speaker 1>naked lady? I'm gonna guess the naked lady.

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:51.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes.

0:06:55.440 --> 0:07:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Any other characters that you wish to share from your journeys.

0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:09.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, there's this older guy who comes in or sometimes

0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:11.840
<v Speaker 2>delivers to us or me to be delivered to him,

0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 2>and we Uh, he's either always in a good mood

0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 2>or really pissed off. And I can't tell if he's

0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 2>racist or not because his neighbor is a black lady.

0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:27.720
<v Speaker 2>Anytime she's over there, he's kind of very rude to her.

0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:30.240
<v Speaker 1>Is he rude to you?

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:42.520
<v Speaker 2>He is? Sometimes it just depends, like if I don't

0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.160
<v Speaker 2>get the pizza out of the bag quick enough when

0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:48.320
<v Speaker 2>he's handing me the money, and he never tips, but

0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:49.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't think.

0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:54.240
<v Speaker 1>He knows, so he could be racist against all races.

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Huh. Yeah, which I guess that wouldn't even really be racist. Okay, Yeah,

0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 2>my girlfriend actually just reminded me about someone who I

0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:17.880
<v Speaker 2>had a heartfelt talk with when I was delivering. There

0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 2>was this guy who I delivered to and he was

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 2>under the influence and when I got there or sorry,

0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:28.760
<v Speaker 2>when I knocked on the door and he opened it up,

0:08:28.800 --> 0:08:31.720
<v Speaker 2>I could clearly tell and I could smell the booze,

0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:35.559
<v Speaker 2>and he just he just poured his heart out to me.

0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:37.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean the first thing he said was like, Man,

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:42.880
<v Speaker 2>I really need help. I this alcohol is killing me. Man.

0:08:43.400 --> 0:08:47.160
<v Speaker 2>And you know, I was kind of taken aback and.

0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:49.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.560
<v Speaker 2>That guy kind of messed me up for a little

0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.040
<v Speaker 2>bit because I wish I could have done more for

0:08:56.120 --> 0:09:00.199
<v Speaker 2>him a moment. Yeah, I've always been someone who I've

0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:03.439
<v Speaker 2>always been someone who's when they see someone going through something,

0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:06.400
<v Speaker 2>I just I want to be there for them, and

0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:07.960
<v Speaker 2>I want to be the one that I want to

0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 2>be a piece of the puzzle that helps get them

0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 2>to where they need to be sure, sure.

0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh, okay, tell me more about what so so that

0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:19.760
<v Speaker 1>you'd go to deliver pizza to this guy and you

0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:25.520
<v Speaker 1>are certainly the first person that this guy has seen

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:32.000
<v Speaker 1>in an possibly an extremely long time, possibly several weeks,

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:35.319
<v Speaker 1>and he looks at you in the eyes and asks

0:09:35.440 --> 0:09:39.920
<v Speaker 1>you human being on the planet at the same time

0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:46.400
<v Speaker 1>as him to other human being, brother, I need help.

0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:48.960
<v Speaker 3>M hm.

0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he he was. He kept saying it over and over.

0:09:57.120 --> 0:09:59.360
<v Speaker 2>He would say, I need help. This alcohol is going

0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:02.960
<v Speaker 2>to kill me. I wish He's like, and he looked

0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:04.880
<v Speaker 2>me dead in the eyes again, he was like, don't ever,

0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:10.679
<v Speaker 2>don't ever be like me. Don't ever. And that kind

0:10:10.679 --> 0:10:11.240
<v Speaker 2>of stuck with me.

0:10:13.480 --> 0:10:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, by the way, can I uh offer. I know

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 1>you said that you felt upset that you couldn't help him,

0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:26.200
<v Speaker 1>but you did give him a pizza, which traditionally does

0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:27.960
<v Speaker 1>pair very well with alcohol.

0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:38.360
<v Speaker 2>That's true, that's true. So if anything, I just helped

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.200
<v Speaker 2>him feel better in that moment.

0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:42.800
<v Speaker 1>You did. You did help him feel better in that

0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:47.079
<v Speaker 1>moment by giving him that pizza. Uh See. That's the thing,

0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:51.760
<v Speaker 1>right is you can't You can't save everyone. You can't

0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.360
<v Speaker 1>even you can't even try. I mean you can try,

0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:59.080
<v Speaker 1>but you won't do it. You can really do the

0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.440
<v Speaker 1>best you can. And what I think is cool about

<v Speaker 2>I Uh, I have recently, I mean okay, uh, I

0:12:23.880 --> 0:12:24.560
<v Speaker 2>with alcohol.

0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:28.480

<v Speaker 2>I've been I I even when I met him, I

0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:38.640
<v Speaker 2>was drinking pretty often. But now I've been drinking pretty

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.800
<v Speaker 2>It's been almost every night, but not like maybe two

0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:44.880
<v Speaker 2>days of the week.

0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm. Did part of you see yourself in this guy?

0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:57.360

<v Speaker 1>Mmm mm hmmm. How what do you? Why do you?

0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:13.200

0:13:13.360 --> 0:13:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Uh, I I just think it. I mean, I think

0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:21.679
<v Speaker 2>it's fun to me. You know, it's fun to drink,

0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:29.520
<v Speaker 2>and I don't have a very good sense on self control.

0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmmm, mm hmm. It is fun to drink. You

0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:47.160
<v Speaker 1>ingest brown water, sometimes clear water, and you go, oh,

0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:50.959
<v Speaker 1>it's fun. Because sentience is is a noyse is tough.

0:13:51.960 --> 0:13:55.080
<v Speaker 1>It's a lot. Yeah, so you want it. You gotta

0:13:55.160 --> 0:14:05.800
<v Speaker 1>numb yourself down sometimes I understand the impulse. Yeah, do

0:14:05.840 --> 0:14:09.920
<v Speaker 1>you have anything? Although you seem like I will say

0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 1>this about you from what I know about you from

0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:14.880
<v Speaker 1>talking to you on the phone, which is, uh, you

0:14:14.920 --> 0:14:18.880
<v Speaker 1>have a lovely partner who you enjoy very much. You

0:14:18.880 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 1>have three cats.

0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:22.560
<v Speaker 3>Who you like.

0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:26.880
<v Speaker 1>Yes, you you said you like your job, that's rare

0:14:30.440 --> 0:14:34.240
<v Speaker 1>good life. Do you agree? You know, I don't want

0:14:34.240 --> 0:14:36.440
<v Speaker 1>to tell you what you have because you know your life.

0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:40.000
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, I do absolutely agree.

0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So why do you feel compelled to to run

0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:51.520
<v Speaker 1>to numb yourself from your sentient experience of your own

0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:53.680
<v Speaker 1>wonderful life? Genuine question?

0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:03.440
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know if I have a real answer

0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:09.880
<v Speaker 2>to why other than I ah, I get the pole

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:14.760
<v Speaker 2>impulse to do it, and I just want to do it,

0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:22.800
<v Speaker 2>and sometimes it feels like I am not. I'm sorry,

0:15:22.800 --> 0:15:27.360
<v Speaker 2>I want to set what oh my girlfriend saying that

0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 2>my parents have addictive personalities, which are.

0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, there we go. It's hereditary thing.

0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:37.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah.

0:15:38.000 --> 0:15:41.880
<v Speaker 2>My dad's definitely was or still is an alcoholic growing

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:44.760
<v Speaker 2>when I was growing up, to some extent, there was

0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:48.480
<v Speaker 2>always he was, at least as far as when I

0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:51.600
<v Speaker 2>say I alcoholic, I guess, I mean he was drinking

0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:58.000
<v Speaker 2>every night and where there was no real uh control,

0:15:58.040 --> 0:15:58.960
<v Speaker 2>I guess on his side.

0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:04.800
<v Speaker 1>It didn't seem like, have you gone to a real

0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:05.920
<v Speaker 1>therapist to talk about this?

0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.760
<v Speaker 2>I not. I haven't been to So I went to

0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:16.920
<v Speaker 2>therapy once and I had two sessions, and after that

0:16:17.000 --> 0:16:21.760
<v Speaker 2>second session, I quit and I know that that's the

0:16:21.760 --> 0:16:26.160
<v Speaker 2>thing that everyone does, and it's uh, I do. I

0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:29.600
<v Speaker 2>do want to go back, and I've been trying to

0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:33.600
<v Speaker 2>get that worked out. It's just a it's a process,

0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:37.720
<v Speaker 2>I guess to get it done.

0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Is any part of you drinking to forget the sight

0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:43.840
<v Speaker 1>of that lady's boobs?

0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:51.080
<v Speaker 2>Maybe that might be a little bit of it.

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, when you go to therapy, you should talk about

0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:59.120
<v Speaker 1>that as well. Definitely, Uh have you ever been to AA?

0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:02.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know shit about AA, so I'm not going

0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:04.680
<v Speaker 1>to try to chill you on it, but I am.

0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:06.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm curious if you've tried it.

0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:10.119
<v Speaker 3>I have not.

0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I have brought it up to my girlfriend once and

0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:18.320
<v Speaker 2>I've looked it up. It is something that I think

0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:23.000
<v Speaker 2>would be I think definitely is a helpful resource. I mean,

0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:26.920
<v Speaker 2>I know it works. I've seen people. I know people

0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:30.560
<v Speaker 2>have gone through it. My best friend gone went through

0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:34.879
<v Speaker 2>it and he he's been sober for two three years.

0:17:34.960 --> 0:17:40.600
<v Speaker 2>So I just it's just taking that step really.

0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm, well, Aiden, uh uh huh huh. I don't know.

0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:57.360
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm happy. I'm I'm so happy to hear

0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:01.480
<v Speaker 1>that you're happy with your life. It's aspiring to me. Actually,

0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:04.399
<v Speaker 1>I've been thinking a lot. I know this sounds like

0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm being facetious maybe, but I'm not. I've been thinking

0:18:07.040 --> 0:18:08.720
<v Speaker 1>a lot lately about how to be happy in my

0:18:08.800 --> 0:18:15.200
<v Speaker 1>own life. And I'm inspired by you because you seem

0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:22.680
<v Speaker 1>so happy in yours. So but yet you know, your

0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:26.920
<v Speaker 1>parents had this hereditary Your parents had this addictive personality.

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:30.640
<v Speaker 1>And when you when your dad there was there was,

0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:35.439
<v Speaker 1>there was, there was that that gene was in his

0:18:35.640 --> 0:18:40.640
<v Speaker 1>come and that was put into your mom's vagina. Then

0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:42.919
<v Speaker 1>there was you, and you had no control over that.

0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Every aspect of your life that you had control over,

0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:52.160
<v Speaker 1>your decisions, your perceptions. You you've done a great job,

0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:56.639
<v Speaker 1>it seems, of steering them in a positive direction to

0:18:56.720 --> 0:19:02.040
<v Speaker 1>be happy. But you you were tainted come from the start,

0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:04.639
<v Speaker 1>and you couldn't control that. And now you're dealing with that.

0:19:05.760 --> 0:19:10.960
<v Speaker 1>But everything again that was within your control. It's doing

0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:17.119
<v Speaker 1>pretty good. So I'm inspired by that, and I hope

0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:23.040
<v Speaker 1>that you find a way to positively deal with you know,

0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:26.680
<v Speaker 1>this hereditary issue. I don't know how much that's worth, but.

0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:31.040
<v Speaker 2>No, I appreciate it. Man, it means a lot coming

0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:31.320

<v Speaker 3>This is fat Mike?

0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:50.600
<v Speaker 1>Fat Mike.

0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:52.800

<v Speaker 1>Are you? Uh? Fat Mike? It says here that you

0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:10.200
<v Speaker 1>and your brother have been gambling a lot, but you

0:23:10.400 --> 0:23:16.400
<v Speaker 1>keep winning, so you're not sure if it's a problem.

0:23:16.480 --> 0:23:22.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, wow, right now we're winning.

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Project have you ever have you you say, you know,

0:23:31.320 --> 0:23:37.000
<v Speaker 1>the way that you said that was very contemplative. It

0:23:37.119 --> 0:23:45.440
<v Speaker 1>seems as though you're aware perhaps you have this like premonition,

0:23:45.680 --> 0:23:49.600
<v Speaker 1>this almost like it's a prophecy or something, you know,

0:23:49.600 --> 0:23:53.760
<v Speaker 1>how dogs can sense natural disasters. I don't know if

0:23:53.800 --> 0:23:58.840
<v Speaker 1>that's actually true, but that's like the energy. That's the

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:02.560
<v Speaker 1>energy that you gave off just now as you were

0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:07.000
<v Speaker 1>talking that you're sensing the disaster of you soon losing.

0:24:09.119 --> 0:24:12.639
<v Speaker 3>Well, actually i'm losing today.

0:24:14.400 --> 0:24:16.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So you just said you were saying that you

0:24:16.119 --> 0:24:18.159
<v Speaker 1>were winning right now, but you're losing.

0:24:18.160 --> 0:24:23.440
<v Speaker 3>Well, in total, I'm up. It's like a week five

0:24:23.480 --> 0:24:24.760
<v Speaker 3>week basis.

0:24:25.240 --> 0:24:27.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So you're up in total, but you're down.

0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:30.360
<v Speaker 3>Today, that's true. Yep.

0:24:31.240 --> 0:24:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Have you Is this the first time in a while

0:24:33.000 --> 0:24:33.680
<v Speaker 1>that you've been down?

0:24:35.720 --> 0:24:36.600
<v Speaker 4>Uh?

0:24:36.680 --> 0:24:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I started by probably two months ago.

0:24:40.160 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 1>And the first time you've been up in a month

0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:46.040
<v Speaker 1>and the first time you've been down in two months?

0:24:47.440 --> 0:24:48.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's not true.

0:24:50.160 --> 0:24:51.080
<v Speaker 1>How's it feel to be down?

0:24:53.359 --> 0:24:58.439
<v Speaker 3>Uh? It's a sad I gotta tell you, Like, I

0:24:58.520 --> 0:25:01.000
<v Speaker 3>wake up and I'm like, ah, got to make that

0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.000
<v Speaker 3>money back, right m hm.

0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:14.880
<v Speaker 1>So you're trying to decide whether or not it's a problem.

0:25:15.040 --> 0:25:17.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I guess you could say that. I just want

0:25:17.600 --> 0:25:17.920
<v Speaker 3>to hear.

0:25:17.840 --> 0:25:22.520
<v Speaker 1>What's the what's the hesitancy? What are you not caring?

0:25:22.520 --> 0:25:24.600
<v Speaker 1>If it's a problem, you cared at least enough to

0:25:24.640 --> 0:25:25.000
<v Speaker 1>call me.

0:25:28.040 --> 0:25:32.040
<v Speaker 3>Uh yeah, it shouldn't get a.

0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Problem say that. Say that again, It.

0:25:37.040 --> 0:25:41.240
<v Speaker 3>Probably shouldn't be a problem. But like, I'm not betting

0:25:41.440 --> 0:25:42.119
<v Speaker 3>like my rent.

0:25:42.200 --> 0:25:49.240
<v Speaker 1>Yet you keep you keep talking without talking, you keep saying,

0:25:49.280 --> 0:25:51.600
<v Speaker 1>you keep doing all these things that say, you started

0:25:51.640 --> 0:25:56.760
<v Speaker 1>off with this, well we're winning today, then you did,

0:25:56.800 --> 0:26:00.080
<v Speaker 1>then you added the yet at the end, and you

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:02.640
<v Speaker 1>are doing all these contemplation. You're like saying so much

0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:06.119
<v Speaker 1>without saying anything. What it? Just tell me what it

0:26:06.280 --> 0:26:08.840
<v Speaker 1>is that you're trying to say with it with all

0:26:08.880 --> 0:26:12.280
<v Speaker 1>these things, do you understand what I'm talking about?

0:26:13.560 --> 0:26:18.400
<v Speaker 3>Uh yeah, okay, let me let me let me let

0:26:18.400 --> 0:26:21.520
<v Speaker 3>me hand you off to my brother. He's my betting partner.

0:26:22.080 --> 0:26:22.399
<v Speaker 3>Got it.

0:26:23.880 --> 0:26:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Hey, Gecko, how are you.

0:26:27.880 --> 0:26:28.120
<v Speaker 2>Good?

0:26:28.240 --> 0:26:29.480
<v Speaker 3>Good? How are you doing tonight?

0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:35.200
<v Speaker 1>Have you so? What's your take on on the gambling?

0:26:38.200 --> 0:26:42.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean, we're both like college students, so it's kind

0:26:42.720 --> 0:26:44.359
<v Speaker 3>of just something we do for a little bit of

0:26:44.400 --> 0:26:49.320
<v Speaker 3>extra money. But it's I mean, it's been working out

0:26:49.400 --> 0:26:52.439
<v Speaker 3>well so far. I'm like, I think I'm up like

0:26:52.520 --> 0:26:56.240
<v Speaker 3>two fifty in a month. My brother's down a little

0:26:56.280 --> 0:27:02.320
<v Speaker 3>bit because he has some issues following what I feel

0:27:02.320 --> 0:27:05.040
<v Speaker 3>like I'm probably more sensible of it better than he is.

0:27:05.400 --> 0:27:09.200
<v Speaker 3>So sometimes he doesn't doesn't follow my bets or listen

0:27:09.280 --> 0:27:11.280
<v Speaker 3>to me, So he's down a little bit.

0:27:11.520 --> 0:27:14.159
<v Speaker 1>But what is your definition.

0:27:13.680 --> 0:27:21.560
<v Speaker 3>That knowing, knowing the risks you're taking, and like also

0:27:21.640 --> 0:27:24.400
<v Speaker 3>doing the research, Like I feel like I do probably

0:27:25.920 --> 0:27:29.080
<v Speaker 3>an hour and hour half research every day about like

0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:31.960
<v Speaker 3>that's that I'm going to place m hmm.

0:27:32.920 --> 0:27:34.639
<v Speaker 1>And he doesn't uh huh.

0:27:36.000 --> 0:27:38.800
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean he does a little bit, but usually

0:27:39.040 --> 0:27:42.840
<v Speaker 3>he'll just listen to me or his own research. But

0:27:43.680 --> 0:27:46.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it's process is as well refined as

0:27:46.480 --> 0:27:47.879
<v Speaker 3>mind as m.

0:27:49.720 --> 0:27:52.399
<v Speaker 1>So he was on the phone with me talking about

0:27:52.440 --> 0:27:55.520
<v Speaker 1>whether or not it was a problem. That's a that's

0:27:55.640 --> 0:27:59.960
<v Speaker 1>that's initially why he called in was to discuss whether, Yeah,

0:28:00.080 --> 0:28:01.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it was a problem.

0:28:01.720 --> 0:28:05.359
<v Speaker 3>I'm curious what your take on it is is like,

0:28:06.760 --> 0:28:09.960
<v Speaker 3>because we're winning right now, and obviously that's a good thing.

0:28:10.119 --> 0:28:14.160
<v Speaker 3>But if you start losing, does it become a problem

0:28:14.520 --> 0:28:18.159
<v Speaker 3>the frequency of how much you do it?

0:28:18.400 --> 0:28:20.439
<v Speaker 1>If I could give you, I'll I can give you

0:28:20.520 --> 0:28:25.760
<v Speaker 1>a take. I think that whether or not is a problem.

0:28:25.960 --> 0:28:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I think whether or not it's a problem has nothing

0:28:29.119 --> 0:28:33.639
<v Speaker 1>to do with if you're winning. Or losing. It's not

0:28:33.720 --> 0:28:37.959
<v Speaker 1>even part of the equation. You could be only winning

0:28:38.000 --> 0:28:42.600
<v Speaker 1>and it could be a problem, right, I think, like

0:28:42.640 --> 0:28:48.560
<v Speaker 1>the only thing. I'm not a real therapist, but I think,

0:28:50.680 --> 0:28:52.520
<v Speaker 1>first of all, I can't decide if it's a problem.

0:28:52.600 --> 0:28:54.360
<v Speaker 1>You can't decide if it's a problem. You know, only

0:28:54.400 --> 0:28:57.440
<v Speaker 1>he can really decide if it's a problem. But if

0:28:57.440 --> 0:29:01.880
<v Speaker 1>it were me, I would think it was problem once

0:29:01.920 --> 0:29:07.000
<v Speaker 1>it started to negatively affect his life or steer him

0:29:07.040 --> 0:29:10.360
<v Speaker 1>away from directions he's trying to go. Because I mean,

0:29:10.400 --> 0:29:15.479
<v Speaker 1>he was telling me that he wakes up and the

0:29:15.520 --> 0:29:19.160
<v Speaker 1>first thing he's thinking is, Okay, we got to make

0:29:19.160 --> 0:29:22.040
<v Speaker 1>this money. So it's like the first thing he does

0:29:22.040 --> 0:29:24.720
<v Speaker 1>when he wakes up, right.

0:29:24.600 --> 0:29:27.840
<v Speaker 3>So that, yeah, I mean that that might be a

0:29:27.880 --> 0:29:29.000
<v Speaker 3>little bit concerning.

0:29:29.800 --> 0:29:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I have a problem with fucking Instagram. I look at

0:29:32.480 --> 0:29:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Instagram to the first thing I look at when I

0:29:34.440 --> 0:29:42.960
<v Speaker 1>wake up. It's a problem, right, all right, So again

0:29:43.040 --> 0:29:44.760
<v Speaker 1>the whole way I mean, that's the thing, right is

0:29:44.800 --> 0:29:48.640
<v Speaker 1>even if he's winning, if he wakes up and the

0:29:48.680 --> 0:29:51.560
<v Speaker 1>first thing he's thinking about his wins, it takes it

0:29:51.600 --> 0:29:56.440
<v Speaker 1>takes takes control over his day, which would make it problem.

0:29:57.400 --> 0:30:00.720
<v Speaker 1>My opinion, but my opinion is worthless. It's about his opinion.

0:30:02.920 --> 0:30:06.520
<v Speaker 3>Right right now. It's kind of like just a side hustle.

0:30:06.880 --> 0:30:10.800
<v Speaker 3>I guess, like I'm not really we don't really bet

0:30:11.080 --> 0:30:15.360
<v Speaker 3>anything that we can't afford to pay. So I think

0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:17.880
<v Speaker 3>as long as we stay in like sensible ground and

0:30:17.920 --> 0:30:21.880
<v Speaker 3>not go off the rails, I think I feel like.

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:28.000
<v Speaker 2>That it's not that bad.

0:30:28.040 --> 0:30:31.440
<v Speaker 3>But if if it is something that takes over like

0:30:31.520 --> 0:30:34.360
<v Speaker 3>his brain in his mind, and he's just thinking about

0:30:34.360 --> 0:30:39.000
<v Speaker 3>that all the time, then it could definitely be a problem.

0:30:39.200 --> 0:30:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Is can he hear all this right now? Can he

0:30:40.920 --> 0:30:41.640
<v Speaker 1>hear our conversation?

0:30:42.200 --> 0:30:42.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:30:42.440 --> 0:30:44.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we're on speakers.

0:30:45.080 --> 0:30:47.480
<v Speaker 1>Uh, what do you think about this all? Fat?

0:30:47.520 --> 0:30:53.920
<v Speaker 3>Mike? Yeah, come on, like I like it a lot.

0:30:54.000 --> 0:30:55.160
<v Speaker 3>I have a lot to think about.

0:30:56.400 --> 0:31:01.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, do you want to share anything right now?

0:31:01.600 --> 0:31:03.360
<v Speaker 3>I think I might take a break for a little bit.

0:31:04.880 --> 0:31:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:31:07.520 --> 0:31:10.320
<v Speaker 3>It seems like I'm on my phone a little bit

0:31:10.320 --> 0:31:13.480
<v Speaker 3>too much because of it, because I kind of cut

0:31:13.520 --> 0:31:16.959
<v Speaker 3>all those social media platforms out. So this is like

0:31:16.960 --> 0:31:18.080
<v Speaker 3>what I do when I'm board.

0:31:19.720 --> 0:31:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Interesting. Okay, So you had an experience where you diagnosed

0:31:23.040 --> 0:31:25.800
<v Speaker 1>that you had a problem with so I hate the

0:31:25.800 --> 0:31:29.200
<v Speaker 1>word diagnosed, but you realized that you had a problem

0:31:29.240 --> 0:31:31.400
<v Speaker 1>with social media, and so you cut all that stuff out.

0:31:31.680 --> 0:31:34.600
<v Speaker 1>So you have before in your life realized you had

0:31:34.600 --> 0:31:36.520
<v Speaker 1>a problem and cut the shit out.

0:31:38.040 --> 0:31:42.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, I just think social media is kind of unhealthy, okay,

0:31:42.360 --> 0:31:44.560
<v Speaker 3>looking at perfect things all day.

0:31:45.600 --> 0:31:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Hmm, Well, fat Mike, is there anything else you want

0:31:50.480 --> 0:31:51.880
<v Speaker 1>to say to the people of the computer before we go?

0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:57.680
<v Speaker 3>I just want to say thank you. I work a

0:31:57.680 --> 0:32:04.320
<v Speaker 3>summer job of like a mosquito business, and I listen

0:32:04.360 --> 0:32:06.640
<v Speaker 3>to you all the time, and you keep me entertained

0:32:06.680 --> 0:32:07.240
<v Speaker 3>all the time.

0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:10.640
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, man. I have always wanted to contribute in

0:32:10.680 --> 0:32:14.000
<v Speaker 1>some way, shape or form to the mosquito business. Not

0:32:14.120 --> 0:32:16.480
<v Speaker 1>on the side of the mosquitoes, on the side that

0:32:16.480 --> 0:32:16.680
<v Speaker 1>you're on.

0:32:16.800 --> 0:32:19.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, of course not. We're exterminating them soon.

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Thank you guys for the work that you're doing for

0:32:24.720 --> 0:32:26.120
<v Speaker 1>the country of America.

0:32:28.040 --> 0:32:31.160
<v Speaker 3>All right, thank you, sir, Great night.

0:32:34.000 --> 0:32:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Those are good guys. They're making me think about my

0:32:36.360 --> 0:32:39.880
<v Speaker 1>own problems. I'm trying to do that more so. It's

0:32:39.920 --> 0:32:43.360
<v Speaker 1>the easiest thing in the entire planet to sit here

0:32:43.600 --> 0:32:47.800
<v Speaker 1>and try to work out with people if they have problems.

0:32:47.800 --> 0:32:49.480
<v Speaker 1>But now I'm working out with myself to have a problem.

0:32:49.480 --> 0:32:52.720
<v Speaker 1>But of course I have a problem. Of course I

0:32:52.720 --> 0:32:56.680
<v Speaker 1>have a problem. I wake up in the morning and

0:32:56.800 --> 0:32:58.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, this happened to me this morning. I woke

0:32:58.760 --> 0:33:00.000
<v Speaker 1>up and I was like, you know what, I'm gonna

0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:06.280
<v Speaker 1>do my journal before I look at Instagram. I said

0:33:06.280 --> 0:33:08.840
<v Speaker 1>that to myself, and then I didn't. He just looked

0:33:08.840 --> 0:33:11.680
<v Speaker 1>at it and he didn't even do the journal because

<v Speaker 1>have a problem. I'm gonna do something to fix it.

0:33:57.400 --> 0:34:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll take note of that. Hello, hello, saw A Mean,

0:34:02.000 --> 0:34:04.800
<v Speaker 1>what's happening? What's going on? What's your life like?

0:34:06.960 --> 0:34:12.200
<v Speaker 3>So right now I was talking to guy before, trying

0:34:12.200 --> 0:34:14.560
<v Speaker 3>to figure out where my life is going after this. Man,

0:34:15.160 --> 0:34:19.400
<v Speaker 3>I opened a dealership out here in Houston, car dealership

0:34:20.520 --> 0:34:24.440
<v Speaker 3>and me and my best friend opened it together, and

0:34:24.600 --> 0:34:26.879
<v Speaker 3>basically the bank's game gave us a bunch of money

0:34:26.920 --> 0:34:29.120
<v Speaker 3>to buy cars, and we fucking blew it.

0:34:29.200 --> 0:34:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Man.

0:34:31.239 --> 0:34:34.800
<v Speaker 3>We we bought way too many cars that we couldn't

0:34:34.840 --> 0:34:38.600
<v Speaker 3>sell the time, and you know, put a strain on me,

0:34:39.160 --> 0:34:43.600
<v Speaker 3>my best friend's relationship. We've been busting our ass for

0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:46.600
<v Speaker 3>two years in a row. And now it's you know,

0:34:46.760 --> 0:34:49.200
<v Speaker 3>everything is pretty much all packed up ready to go.

0:34:49.280 --> 0:34:52.800
<v Speaker 3>Everything's done. Now, it's just like now what you know?

0:34:54.080 --> 0:34:58.000
<v Speaker 1>So you a chance and you started your own car

0:34:58.040 --> 0:35:01.200
<v Speaker 1>dealership and a bank gave you alone to buy your

0:35:01.239 --> 0:35:07.600
<v Speaker 1>initial inventory. Yep, So dude, you know what's crazy is that?

0:35:07.760 --> 0:35:07.920
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

0:35:08.000 --> 0:35:12.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean for any business, like, buying your initial inventory

0:35:12.760 --> 0:35:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and holding on to inventory is risky because you never

0:35:16.160 --> 0:35:18.680
<v Speaker 1>know if you're going to sell it. But buying an

0:35:18.719 --> 0:35:22.880
<v Speaker 1>inventory of cars sounds kind of terrifying because you're buying

0:35:22.880 --> 0:35:27.240
<v Speaker 1>a giant inventory of really highly priced stuff.

0:35:29.000 --> 0:35:32.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, man, one point two five million, the worth.

0:35:33.160 --> 0:35:36.480
<v Speaker 1>One point two five million dollars worth of cars.

0:35:38.640 --> 0:35:42.760
<v Speaker 3>It's about that's been the worn cars.

0:35:43.239 --> 0:35:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Wow. Wow. So when you decided to close down, how

0:35:50.440 --> 0:35:53.359
<v Speaker 1>many dollars worth of cars did you have in your

0:35:53.440 --> 0:35:54.880
<v Speaker 1>lot unsold?

0:35:57.440 --> 0:36:00.040
<v Speaker 3>About four hundred and ninety.

0:36:01.360 --> 0:36:03.920
<v Speaker 1>About four hundred and ninety thousand dollars.

0:36:04.760 --> 0:36:08.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, And so as you go along with these cars,

0:36:08.960 --> 0:36:12.480
<v Speaker 3>as you go along, you're pretty much pay So, say

0:36:12.520 --> 0:36:14.759
<v Speaker 3>you have a just for maths stake, you have one

0:36:14.800 --> 0:36:17.040
<v Speaker 3>hundred thousand dollars flow pay, right, so you buy ten

0:36:17.040 --> 0:36:20.120
<v Speaker 3>cars at ten thousand dollars. Every month you pay one

0:36:20.120 --> 0:36:23.520
<v Speaker 3>thousand dollars on each car. Right, About nine hundred goals

0:36:23.520 --> 0:36:25.719
<v Speaker 3>towards the principle, which is what you owe on the car,

0:36:25.760 --> 0:36:28.920
<v Speaker 3>which is ten thousand dollars and AD, and one hundred

0:36:28.920 --> 0:36:30.920
<v Speaker 3>goes towards the interest, the fees the audiata.

0:36:31.840 --> 0:36:32.000
<v Speaker 4>Right.

0:36:32.200 --> 0:36:35.480
<v Speaker 3>So some of these cars at four hundred eighty thousand, Yeah,

0:36:35.480 --> 0:36:37.840
<v Speaker 3>that's what it's valued at. But say we owe the

0:36:37.880 --> 0:36:40.759
<v Speaker 3>bank twelve thousand dollars on a twenty five thousand dollars

0:36:40.800 --> 0:36:43.200
<v Speaker 3>car and they want their money. Now, you're gonna have

0:36:43.239 --> 0:36:46.040
<v Speaker 3>to send those to the auction and possibly take a loss.

0:36:46.239 --> 0:36:48.920
<v Speaker 3>You know, the worst loss I took was twenty thousand

0:36:49.000 --> 0:36:54.239
<v Speaker 3>dollars on a Ford Bunco. You know, it wasn't it

0:36:54.360 --> 0:36:57.680
<v Speaker 3>was bad man, you know. And it wasn't just my money.

0:36:57.800 --> 0:37:02.120
<v Speaker 3>It was my money in my best friend's money. You know.

0:37:02.200 --> 0:37:04.759
<v Speaker 3>We granted me and him worked at the same dealerships,

0:37:04.800 --> 0:37:06.880
<v Speaker 3>like we've always worked at the same dealerships. You know,

0:37:07.560 --> 0:37:09.239
<v Speaker 3>when you take a big step like that, you don't

0:37:09.440 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 3>you don't really think about all the all the other

0:37:13.640 --> 0:37:14.520
<v Speaker 3>ship that comes with it.

0:37:15.040 --> 0:37:19.560
<v Speaker 1>So you said that, you said that you this, You

0:37:19.600 --> 0:37:21.960
<v Speaker 1>said that this ruined your friendship a little bit, or

0:37:22.080 --> 0:37:24.160
<v Speaker 1>or maybe if not ruined, at least put a dent

0:37:24.320 --> 0:37:28.640
<v Speaker 1>into it. How did this affect your personal relationship.

0:37:30.040 --> 0:37:32.160
<v Speaker 3>So pretty much made him dying out anymore? I was

0:37:32.239 --> 0:37:38.120
<v Speaker 3>out of work with the workship. Mm hmmm, just because also,

0:37:38.280 --> 0:37:40.640
<v Speaker 3>like we've we didn't we haven't seen anybody else in

0:37:40.680 --> 0:37:43.200
<v Speaker 3>the past two years other than each other, just building

0:37:43.239 --> 0:37:46.319
<v Speaker 3>at this dealership and pretty much just fucking it up,

0:37:47.200 --> 0:37:47.400
<v Speaker 3>you know.

0:37:48.239 --> 0:37:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmmm. Was there a particular instance of a thing

0:37:56.880 --> 0:38:02.400
<v Speaker 1>that that hurt your guys's friendship or was it just

0:38:02.520 --> 0:38:05.760
<v Speaker 1>a general degradation over time?

0:38:07.960 --> 0:38:11.080
<v Speaker 3>It was just you know, when you're working eighty hours

0:38:11.080 --> 0:38:13.600
<v Speaker 3>a week, you know what I mean, And certain things

0:38:13.600 --> 0:38:18.440
<v Speaker 3>aren't getting done certain weeks, you're not getting paid because

0:38:18.480 --> 0:38:20.279
<v Speaker 3>you know, you have to pay your employees and shit

0:38:20.440 --> 0:38:22.600
<v Speaker 3>like that. Of course, over time, it's it's just gonna

0:38:22.600 --> 0:38:24.800
<v Speaker 3>wear you down, you know what I mean. It gets tired.

0:38:25.680 --> 0:38:32.440
<v Speaker 3>It's real tired. Wow. And you know you have angry customers,

0:38:32.520 --> 0:38:37.680
<v Speaker 3>angry employees, angry banks. It all comes down on two

0:38:37.719 --> 0:38:41.319
<v Speaker 3>people's heads, you know what I mean. We're not old either, man,

0:38:41.440 --> 0:38:45.160
<v Speaker 3>Like I'm thirty twenty seven, you know what I mean.

0:38:47.719 --> 0:38:48.440
<v Speaker 3>That is really good.

0:38:49.040 --> 0:38:53.160
<v Speaker 1>So where are you at now? What kinds of lasting

0:38:53.239 --> 0:38:57.360
<v Speaker 1>effects are you having to deal with as a result

0:38:57.440 --> 0:38:59.239
<v Speaker 1>of the failure of the dealership.

0:39:01.400 --> 0:39:04.160
<v Speaker 3>So this was I've been in the car business for

0:39:04.280 --> 0:39:08.160
<v Speaker 3>nine years, so this was kind of like gonna be

0:39:08.360 --> 0:39:10.120
<v Speaker 3>like my dream, you know what I mean. Holy shit,

0:39:10.160 --> 0:39:12.359
<v Speaker 3>I'm opening up my own dealership with my own name.

0:39:12.440 --> 0:39:16.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm not working for newbody anymore. But doing this actually

0:39:16.200 --> 0:39:19.120
<v Speaker 3>made me realize how much I hate the car business.

0:39:19.680 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Mmmm.

0:39:20.520 --> 0:39:23.480
<v Speaker 3>So that within itself is a blessing. I guess it

0:39:23.560 --> 0:39:25.239
<v Speaker 3>cost me a lot of fucking money. In a lot

0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:29.000
<v Speaker 3>of times, God could have picked a different, different way

0:39:29.000 --> 0:39:30.520
<v Speaker 3>to show me that I shouldn't be in the car

0:39:30.560 --> 0:39:33.520
<v Speaker 3>business anymore. But like now that I see it for

0:39:33.560 --> 0:39:35.799
<v Speaker 3>what it is, and especially that I see all like

0:39:35.880 --> 0:39:38.680
<v Speaker 3>all facets of it, the fucking tax side, the title side,

0:39:38.719 --> 0:39:42.919
<v Speaker 3>the bank side, the floor plan side, it is it's

0:39:42.960 --> 0:39:44.920
<v Speaker 3>not for me, not for me.

0:39:45.000 --> 0:39:48.680
<v Speaker 1>What was it about the the car life that you

0:39:48.800 --> 0:39:54.480
<v Speaker 1>thought was for you? What was the idyllic version, the.

0:39:54.440 --> 0:39:57.359
<v Speaker 3>Hustle and bustle? Man? I just I loved getting up.

0:39:57.840 --> 0:40:01.440
<v Speaker 3>I love talking to people. I love convincing people. I

0:40:01.520 --> 0:40:06.040
<v Speaker 3>love the finance side of it, just helping people out,

0:40:06.239 --> 0:40:08.680
<v Speaker 3>like believe it or not, Like a couple of times

0:40:08.680 --> 0:40:11.839
<v Speaker 3>in my dealership I had I would sign people up

0:40:11.840 --> 0:40:14.040
<v Speaker 3>for Uber like you know, so that way they could

0:40:14.080 --> 0:40:16.360
<v Speaker 3>help that could help them with the car payment or whatever,

0:40:16.480 --> 0:40:18.680
<v Speaker 3>like stupid shit like that. It just it went a

0:40:18.719 --> 0:40:21.279
<v Speaker 3>long way with me, you know what I mean. And

0:40:23.160 --> 0:40:25.759
<v Speaker 3>I just you know, like when you own a dealership,

0:40:25.800 --> 0:40:29.560
<v Speaker 3>you're going to the DMV, you're going to the tax office,

0:40:29.600 --> 0:40:31.880
<v Speaker 3>you're dealing with an accounting, you're going through the auction.

0:40:32.000 --> 0:40:34.120
<v Speaker 3>The auction's one, don't get me wrong, but it's just

0:40:36.040 --> 0:40:39.040
<v Speaker 3>everything fun about the car dealership business. I couldn't do

0:40:39.120 --> 0:40:41.480
<v Speaker 3>because I had to deal with the bigger.

0:40:41.239 --> 0:40:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Ship and what is your plan now?

0:40:47.600 --> 0:40:50.160
<v Speaker 3>So pretty much me and him are cashing out whatever

0:40:50.239 --> 0:40:54.839
<v Speaker 3>money's left, and to be honest with you, I don't know.

0:40:56.040 --> 0:40:58.080
<v Speaker 3>I just I know I'm going to go into some

0:40:58.200 --> 0:41:01.839
<v Speaker 3>kind of business venture right now. Like I picked up

0:41:02.000 --> 0:41:06.520
<v Speaker 3>bounty hunting on the side for fun. That's been interesting

0:41:06.560 --> 0:41:07.279
<v Speaker 3>to say the least.

0:41:07.680 --> 0:41:10.960
<v Speaker 1>You picked up by hunting on the side. What how

0:41:11.000 --> 0:41:13.400
<v Speaker 1>does one yeah, pick up bounty hunting.

0:41:15.840 --> 0:41:21.520

<v Speaker 3>private security company that also does future of recovery. I

0:41:24.880 --> 0:41:28.279
<v Speaker 3>sold him a Tundra, a twenty twenty Tundra, and I

0:41:28.360 --> 0:41:30.120
<v Speaker 3>was like so yeah, Like I was like, yeah, so

<v Speaker 5>He's like yeah.

0:41:31.360 --> 0:41:33.160
<v Speaker 3>I was like yeah, I'd love to come along for bounty.

<v Speaker 3>And I was like, yeah, sure, fuck it. Come So

0:41:35.320 --> 0:41:37.160

<v Speaker 3>this is fucking awesome. Can I do this all the time.

0:41:38.960 --> 0:41:40.160
<v Speaker 3>He's like, yeah, I'll call you every time we have

0:41:40.200 --> 0:41:43.400
<v Speaker 3>a bounty. So I've been actually like doing little bounties

0:41:43.440 --> 0:41:46.080
<v Speaker 3>here and there. It's pretty it's pretty fucking fun and

0:41:46.120 --> 0:41:48.480
<v Speaker 3>it's not like it's something stupid like, we don't go

0:41:48.520 --> 0:41:50.799
<v Speaker 3>after kids who missed their court date for weed and ship,

0:41:50.920 --> 0:41:53.920
<v Speaker 3>like he goes, he goes after some serious people and

0:41:55.320 --> 0:41:58.920
<v Speaker 3>it's it's it's fun. It's fun to say the least. Oh,

0:41:59.760 --> 0:42:04.320
<v Speaker 3>but it is. It is quite dangerous. It's it's a

0:42:04.360 --> 0:42:09.439
<v Speaker 3>different lifestyle. But yeah, I do it parts, that's all right.

0:42:10.239 --> 0:42:15.520
<v Speaker 1>It's an interesting thing when you have this idellic thing

0:42:15.600 --> 0:42:19.279
<v Speaker 1>that you are going after for so long, and then

0:42:19.640 --> 0:42:22.359
<v Speaker 1>after going out it for so long, you realize that

0:42:22.600 --> 0:42:26.440
<v Speaker 1>it's not for you. It puts you in a scary

0:42:26.760 --> 0:42:31.040
<v Speaker 1>yet also interesting place with a lot of potential energy

0:42:31.560 --> 0:42:35.680
<v Speaker 1>because now that you're no longer chained to the pursuit

0:42:35.800 --> 0:42:38.840
<v Speaker 1>of your dreams, you can kind of do anything.

0:42:40.760 --> 0:42:42.160
<v Speaker 3>And that's what I feel like. I feel like my

0:42:42.200 --> 0:42:44.000
<v Speaker 3>life is kind of like Grandtoft thoughto right now, I

0:42:44.000 --> 0:42:46.640
<v Speaker 3>could do whatever the fuck I want. But like it's

0:42:46.680 --> 0:42:48.399
<v Speaker 3>like what do I want? You know what I mean?

0:42:48.480 --> 0:42:51.040
<v Speaker 3>Like I thought the dealership was what I wanted. I

0:42:51.080 --> 0:42:54.480
<v Speaker 3>attained it. Now it's not what I want, So what

0:42:54.520 --> 0:42:55.960
<v Speaker 3>do I want? I kind of have to sit down

0:42:55.960 --> 0:42:59.160
<v Speaker 3>with myself and think about that, especially, like you know,

0:42:59.280 --> 0:43:01.359
<v Speaker 3>my parents were telling about it. They were like all right, Well,

0:43:01.400 --> 0:43:02.839
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna get all this money, what are you gonna

0:43:02.840 --> 0:43:05.480
<v Speaker 3>do with it? Obviously, I don't know. I'm not just

0:43:05.640 --> 0:43:08.200
<v Speaker 3>like just relax for like a year, kind of like

0:43:08.200 --> 0:43:10.319
<v Speaker 3>how I did with like high school to college. I

0:43:10.400 --> 0:43:12.600
<v Speaker 3>just relaxed for a year before I did anything, just

0:43:12.680 --> 0:43:13.600
<v Speaker 3>thought about my plan.

0:43:14.239 --> 0:43:17.719
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm. Said you're gonna do other You said that

0:43:17.719 --> 0:43:19.840
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna do other entrepreneurial ventures.

0:43:19.880 --> 0:43:23.080
<v Speaker 3>Correct, Yeah, that's all what I'm trying to do.

0:43:23.600 --> 0:43:29.560
<v Speaker 1>What adventures? A restaurant, Yeah, either a restaurant, all right.

0:43:29.800 --> 0:43:31.920
<v Speaker 3>Saw, what I was thinking about doing was generally just

0:43:32.000 --> 0:43:35.680
<v Speaker 3>buying out like dying businesses. I sawt like like I

0:43:35.680 --> 0:43:37.840
<v Speaker 3>went around and looked at a couple of businesses, you know,

0:43:37.920 --> 0:43:40.880
<v Speaker 3>like a restaurant and al salon. I thinking about just

0:43:40.920 --> 0:43:44.360
<v Speaker 3>taking those over, sprucing them up, uh, you know, taking

0:43:44.360 --> 0:43:46.080
<v Speaker 3>care of them for like a year or two, building

0:43:46.160 --> 0:43:48.799
<v Speaker 3>up the clientele, building up the customer base, and then

0:43:48.880 --> 0:43:50.560
<v Speaker 3>just selling them off for a product.

0:43:50.600 --> 0:43:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Now isn't But now isn't a lot of the stuff

0:43:52.960 --> 0:43:54.600
<v Speaker 1>that kind of made you realize that you don't want

0:43:54.640 --> 0:43:58.719
<v Speaker 1>to get into cars, like the bureaucracy, the taxes, the banks,

0:43:58.880 --> 0:44:01.040
<v Speaker 1>just just I mean the the way that you described

0:44:01.040 --> 0:44:03.879
<v Speaker 1>it to me was like, you had this idea of

0:44:03.920 --> 0:44:07.719
<v Speaker 1>what not even not even a car well not even

0:44:07.880 --> 0:44:09.560
<v Speaker 1>running a car dealership is like, but just the idea

0:44:09.560 --> 0:44:11.560
<v Speaker 1>of like what running a business is like, and then

0:44:11.560 --> 0:44:14.120
<v Speaker 1>when you actually went and do it, you realized, oh,

0:44:14.200 --> 0:44:17.160
<v Speaker 1>this actually fucking sucks. And the things about it that

0:44:17.200 --> 0:44:20.080
<v Speaker 1>you were describing sucked seemed to be things that weren't

0:44:20.160 --> 0:44:23.680
<v Speaker 1>just you know, car things. They were constants in the

0:44:23.800 --> 0:44:27.840
<v Speaker 1>pursuit of doing your own business. And I feel like,

0:44:28.239 --> 0:44:31.040
<v Speaker 1>would you not run into a lot of those again

0:44:31.120 --> 0:44:35.080
<v Speaker 1>if you were to do something like, you know, running

0:44:35.080 --> 0:44:37.480
<v Speaker 1>a restaurant. Not to be a downer, but.

0:44:39.000 --> 0:44:44.840
<v Speaker 3>No, but you're right, whuh yeah, that shit would just

0:44:44.880 --> 0:44:48.839
<v Speaker 3>suck just as bad it's not. It'd be worse because

0:44:48.840 --> 0:44:50.560
<v Speaker 3>now I have to worry about food, I have to

0:44:50.560 --> 0:44:53.680
<v Speaker 3>worry about fucking health organizations. I got to worry about

0:44:53.680 --> 0:44:55.560
<v Speaker 3>people not getting sick. That would be a lot worse.

0:44:57.520 --> 0:45:01.799
<v Speaker 1>I get the sense from you that you're very you know,

0:45:01.880 --> 0:45:05.400
<v Speaker 1>you're a hustler. You like entrepreneurship and whatnot, and you

0:45:05.520 --> 0:45:08.440
<v Speaker 1>like the freedom of it. But uh, it's it's a

0:45:08.600 --> 0:45:10.680
<v Speaker 1>that's a that's a hard place to be in because

0:45:11.280 --> 0:45:14.239
<v Speaker 1>there's there's a lot of rewarding stuff you can get

0:45:14.280 --> 0:45:16.960
<v Speaker 1>out of that, but then also just a ton of

0:45:17.840 --> 0:45:21.000
<v Speaker 1>stress and headaches and and bullshit that you really got

0:45:21.000 --> 0:45:22.400
<v Speaker 1>to have a strong stomach for.

0:45:24.800 --> 0:45:28.279
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, this is this is the ship that kind of

0:45:28.320 --> 0:45:30.759
<v Speaker 3>sucks about life. Sometimes it's just like, Okay, I have

0:45:30.840 --> 0:45:32.799
<v Speaker 3>the means, but I just I don't know what to

0:45:32.880 --> 0:45:36.759
<v Speaker 3>do at this point. I just I kind of just

0:45:36.760 --> 0:45:39.440
<v Speaker 3>want to take like a year to just live, explore

0:45:39.480 --> 0:45:42.239
<v Speaker 3>it's out there, see what's up. Maybe fault, maybe chase

0:45:42.320 --> 0:45:46.200
<v Speaker 3>this bounty hunting thing for a little bit, because that

0:45:46.239 --> 0:45:48.120
<v Speaker 3>seems to be the only thing that's like that I'm

0:45:48.280 --> 0:45:50.399
<v Speaker 3>I look forward to now, you know what I mean,

0:45:50.480 --> 0:45:55.319
<v Speaker 3>Like jobs forward to I haven't. Yeah, it's fun, man,

0:45:55.440 --> 0:45:57.560
<v Speaker 3>it's fun. You know. I feel like I'm doing something

0:45:57.600 --> 0:46:01.080
<v Speaker 3>with my life. You know, I'm making it somehow some way.

0:46:01.160 --> 0:46:03.920
<v Speaker 3>I'm making a difference, you know, And that's all that

0:46:04.160 --> 0:46:07.319
<v Speaker 3>ever matter to me. And I only kind of sold

0:46:07.360 --> 0:46:09.760
<v Speaker 3>out to for all this business ship just because money.

0:46:09.920 --> 0:46:12.680
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, it is what it is.

0:46:13.239 --> 0:46:15.560
<v Speaker 1>No, it sounds like you like to do anything where

0:46:15.640 --> 0:46:18.400
<v Speaker 1>you get a little bit of a gratification from it.

0:46:20.160 --> 0:46:23.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Man, of course.

0:46:23.160 --> 0:46:27.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Now you do bring up a very interesting dilemma

0:46:27.320 --> 0:46:29.200
<v Speaker 1>that I think about in my own life too, which

0:46:29.239 --> 0:46:33.799
<v Speaker 1>is like, you know, you have things that you want

0:46:33.800 --> 0:46:37.160
<v Speaker 1>to do that bring you lots of joy and benefit,

0:46:37.239 --> 0:46:40.240
<v Speaker 1>but they also come at the cost of just driving

0:46:40.280 --> 0:46:43.439
<v Speaker 1>you insane with a lot of the peripherals of them,

0:46:43.880 --> 0:46:49.319
<v Speaker 1>and then you wonder and way the peripherals against uh,

0:46:50.040 --> 0:46:52.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, how happy doing the thing makes you. And

0:46:53.000 --> 0:46:54.560
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the day, that's that's a decision

0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:57.120
<v Speaker 1>that you've got to make for yourself. Who have you

0:46:57.239 --> 0:46:59.080
<v Speaker 1>caught anyone with this bounty hunter?

0:47:01.000 --> 0:47:04.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Actually, like my most like my most aff the

0:47:04.360 --> 0:47:07.680
<v Speaker 3>wall kind of case was a he's a criminal defense attorney,

0:47:07.960 --> 0:47:10.520
<v Speaker 3>and with him we had to be you know, like

0:47:10.560 --> 0:47:12.760
<v Speaker 3>he's a criminal defense attorney, so you have to literally

0:47:12.760 --> 0:47:16.239
<v Speaker 3>do everything by the book otherwise it's it's trouble. But

0:47:16.400 --> 0:47:18.360
<v Speaker 3>he couldn't stop being the shit out of his wife.

0:47:18.800 --> 0:47:21.400
<v Speaker 3>So the county pretty much had it. It was just

0:47:21.440 --> 0:47:24.800
<v Speaker 3>like it go get him. So we went and he

0:47:24.880 --> 0:47:27.279
<v Speaker 3>knew the law. He knew the law really well. So

0:47:27.360 --> 0:47:33.239
<v Speaker 3>we went there like eight o'clock right and from eight

0:47:33.280 --> 0:47:36.400
<v Speaker 3>o'clock till about three point thirty, he wouldn't come out

0:47:36.440 --> 0:47:38.319
<v Speaker 3>of his house because he knows that, like, you know,

0:47:38.360 --> 0:47:42.279
<v Speaker 3>we didn't have it's not technically a felony warrant, so

0:47:42.320 --> 0:47:45.320
<v Speaker 3>we couldn't just break his door in. So he literally

0:47:45.400 --> 0:47:49.120
<v Speaker 3>just sat us out until we finally, like finally, finally

0:47:49.160 --> 0:47:51.960
<v Speaker 3>we got permission from the lamp border. She was like, yeah,

0:47:51.960 --> 0:47:54.600
<v Speaker 3>it's my building. You kicked the door anywhere. Thank you

0:47:54.960 --> 0:48:00.640
<v Speaker 3>kicked the door and grabbed him up. I saw him. Oh, friend, Man,

0:48:01.200 --> 0:48:05.120
<v Speaker 3>that wasn't pretty. Man, that was pretty a piece of shit.

0:48:05.920 --> 0:48:10.319

0:48:10.320 --> 0:48:13.400
<v Speaker 1>future endeavors. I hope you'll find out something to do

0:48:13.640 --> 0:48:15.719

0:48:15.760 --> 0:48:19.640
<v Speaker 1>to do a string of things that bring you momentary

0:48:19.760 --> 0:48:23.399
<v Speaker 1>enjoyment in the moment that you're doing them before you die.

<v Speaker 1>a teacher for five years and you're thinking you might

0:50:03.960 --> 0:50:06.360

0:50:06.400 --> 0:50:12.919
<v Speaker 1>and overworked. So tell me about your your thought process here.

0:50:13.040 --> 0:50:14.920

<v Speaker 5>don't have the emotional capacity to like get that stressed

0:50:26.560 --> 0:50:29.200
<v Speaker 5>out as I've gotten this year already.

<v Speaker 1>When you first started the year, I mean, when you

0:50:32.560 --> 0:50:36.520
<v Speaker 1>first started this five years ago, was your emotional capacity

0:50:37.400 --> 0:50:38.760
<v Speaker 1>greater than it is now.

0:50:40.640 --> 0:50:42.719

0:51:59.880 --> 0:52:01.759

<v Speaker 5>I'm like, okay, well, and then one of them is like,

0:52:14.719 --> 0:52:16.920
<v Speaker 5>oh my god, they heard me, and I'm like, whoa,

0:52:18.200 --> 0:52:19.480
<v Speaker 5>I don't feel bad for you.

0:52:22.760 --> 0:52:24.440
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever been there? Have you ever had to

0:52:25.040 --> 0:52:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever had to like actually take a part

0:52:30.239 --> 0:52:31.600
<v Speaker 1>a physical confrontation.

0:52:34.000 --> 0:52:36.120
<v Speaker 5>No, because they all like, since it's a small town,

0:52:36.160 --> 0:52:39.279
<v Speaker 5>everybody knows each other, so everybody's friends with each other,

0:52:39.719 --> 0:52:42.520
<v Speaker 5>so it's more just like they're at their house just

0:52:42.640 --> 0:52:45.560
<v Speaker 5>wrestling around, but unfortunately they're doing it in my room.

0:52:47.400 --> 0:52:49.920
<v Speaker 1>Tell me what made you want to start doing this job.

0:52:49.960 --> 0:52:52.400
<v Speaker 1>What we've covered a little bit of the negative. I mean,

0:52:52.440 --> 0:52:54.680
<v Speaker 1>what's the positive? What what got you into this? And

0:52:55.360 --> 0:52:58.040
<v Speaker 1>is that glimmer of hope still hiding anywhere.

0:52:57.680 --> 0:53:03.479
<v Speaker 5>Somewhere like it is? I don't. I'm honestly not really

0:53:03.520 --> 0:53:07.040
<v Speaker 5>sure why I chose the route so that I chose.

0:53:07.160 --> 0:53:09.319
<v Speaker 5>I know, like cause I'm a music teacher and I

0:53:09.320 --> 0:53:11.920
<v Speaker 5>love I love music and singing and like being in

0:53:12.000 --> 0:53:17.440
<v Speaker 5>musicals and shit like that. But like now that I'm teaching,

0:53:17.480 --> 0:53:20.319
<v Speaker 5>it's like it's not as fun anymore. I guess, like

0:53:20.320 --> 0:53:22.920
<v Speaker 5>I'd rather be in a musical or like in a

0:53:22.960 --> 0:53:27.160
<v Speaker 5>big choir than teaching kindergarteners with golf of the red

0:53:27.200 --> 0:53:27.839
<v Speaker 5>nosing here.

0:53:30.280 --> 0:53:33.319
<v Speaker 1>Hmm uh So if you were to quit teaching, what

0:53:33.400 --> 0:53:34.080
<v Speaker 1>is it that you would do?

0:53:35.800 --> 0:53:40.400
<v Speaker 6>I was fucking no, dude, I like straight out of

0:53:40.440 --> 0:53:43.120
<v Speaker 6>high school, I went to college, graduated in four years,

0:53:43.120 --> 0:53:46.440
<v Speaker 6>and then I've been teaching since I've graduated and then

0:53:46.920 --> 0:53:47.960
<v Speaker 6>so I really.

0:53:47.760 --> 0:53:50.759
<v Speaker 5>Not questioned anything until like recently, and now I'm like,

0:53:50.800 --> 0:53:52.960
<v Speaker 5>oh my gosh, or if I don't want to do

0:53:52.960 --> 0:53:54.480
<v Speaker 5>this anymore, what do I do?

0:53:54.640 --> 0:53:54.759
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:53:54.840 --> 0:53:56.239
<v Speaker 5>No, I'm gonna have to go back to college. But

0:53:56.239 --> 0:53:57.200
<v Speaker 5>I don't have the money for that.

0:53:58.680 --> 0:54:02.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a tough thing when

0:54:02.760 --> 0:54:06.000
<v Speaker 1>you've like dedicated your life to something and then you

0:54:06.080 --> 0:54:09.080
<v Speaker 1>realize you don't want to do it anymore. It's interesting

0:54:09.080 --> 0:54:11.279
<v Speaker 1>because it's a it's a double edged sword because on

0:54:11.280 --> 0:54:14.080
<v Speaker 1>one hand, you get out of it and you're like,

0:54:14.280 --> 0:54:17.320
<v Speaker 1>oh no, this was I don't I don't even know

0:54:17.400 --> 0:54:19.880
<v Speaker 1>how to walk or breathe or talk anymore because all

0:54:19.920 --> 0:54:22.799
<v Speaker 1>of my walking, breathing and talking was related to this

0:54:22.960 --> 0:54:27.120
<v Speaker 1>thing that I've been invested in for so long. But then, yeah,

0:54:27.320 --> 0:54:31.600
<v Speaker 1>on the flip side, you could do anything. You're a

0:54:31.719 --> 0:54:35.920
<v Speaker 1>human being. I'm alive in the universe. You're alive. How

0:54:35.960 --> 0:54:36.600
<v Speaker 1>old are you now?

0:54:38.560 --> 0:54:38.880
<v Speaker 5>Seven?

0:54:39.280 --> 0:54:44.399
<v Speaker 1>You're twenty seven? Do you have arms and legs all four?

0:54:44.960 --> 0:54:47.719
<v Speaker 1>You're amazing. You could do anything. This is crazy. This

0:54:47.800 --> 0:54:51.560
<v Speaker 1>is a weird This is wild. Why what do you

0:54:51.600 --> 0:54:53.040
<v Speaker 1>what do you want to do? You feel like you

0:54:53.080 --> 0:54:53.600
<v Speaker 1>couldn't do.

0:54:55.920 --> 0:54:57.880
<v Speaker 5>Dude, I've always wanted to get into voice acting.

0:54:58.800 --> 0:55:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, Like.

0:55:01.239 --> 0:55:04.360
<v Speaker 5>I think, as funny as it sounds like, my dream

0:55:04.440 --> 0:55:06.480
<v Speaker 5>job would be like a Disney princess where I get

0:55:06.480 --> 0:55:07.919
<v Speaker 5>a voice act dancing all at.

0:55:07.800 --> 0:55:08.439
<v Speaker 3>The same time.

0:55:10.760 --> 0:55:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Do you know it? Can you do any voices for us?

0:55:15.480 --> 0:55:16.080
<v Speaker 6>I can talk in.

0:55:16.080 --> 0:55:17.840
<v Speaker 5>My book lin Exit like this. I do it in

0:55:17.880 --> 0:55:19.839
<v Speaker 5>front of my sixth grades all the time, and they

0:55:19.880 --> 0:55:21.120
<v Speaker 5>absolutely love it.

0:55:21.520 --> 0:55:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I like that. I like that you want to be

0:55:26.200 --> 0:55:32.200
<v Speaker 1>a voice actor. And have you done any like do

0:55:32.280 --> 0:55:36.640
<v Speaker 1>you make videos? Do you make tiktoks or YouTube videos

0:55:36.680 --> 0:55:40.720
<v Speaker 1>where you're doing your voices?

0:55:42.040 --> 0:55:45.879
<v Speaker 5>I totally would and I could. I'm just afraid because

0:55:45.880 --> 0:55:47.800
<v Speaker 5>I don't want my students to find my page.

0:55:48.480 --> 0:55:51.319
<v Speaker 1>Ah okay, well then, but if you don't have your

0:55:51.520 --> 0:55:52.759
<v Speaker 1>teaching job, then I have.

0:55:52.719 --> 0:55:53.800
<v Speaker 6>To like really monitor.

0:55:55.680 --> 0:55:59.480
<v Speaker 5>I guess that's true. I guess that's true. They ain't

0:55:59.480 --> 0:56:00.319
<v Speaker 5>pay me no more.

0:56:00.719 --> 0:56:02.400

<v Speaker 1>smart enough that me telling you to quit your teaching

0:56:15.840 --> 0:56:18.760
<v Speaker 1>job wouldn't be much of a factor in you actually

0:56:18.760 --> 0:56:19.600
<v Speaker 1>making that decision.

0:56:21.400 --> 0:56:21.759

0:57:20.720 --> 0:57:24.560
<v Speaker 5>But we just haven't done it. Uh he works for

0:57:24.880 --> 0:57:26.240
<v Speaker 5>the Department of Agriculture.

0:57:27.600 --> 0:57:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Does he like doing that? Sorta? Okay? All right? And

0:57:35.720 --> 0:57:36.920
<v Speaker 1>you sort of liked teacher?

0:57:39.560 --> 0:57:48.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know, dude. I have such

0:57:48.880 --> 0:57:49.600
<v Speaker 5>a hard time.

0:57:50.120 --> 0:57:51.040
<v Speaker 6>Like I get to work and.

0:57:51.040 --> 0:57:52.640
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, oh my gosh, I love the kids, They're

0:57:52.640 --> 0:57:54.280
<v Speaker 5>so amazing. And then I get home and I'm like,

0:57:54.320 --> 0:57:56.440
<v Speaker 5>oh my fucking god, what have I gotten myself into?

0:57:57.040 --> 0:58:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Mm? Okay, So, so what you just said just now,

0:58:00.720 --> 0:58:04.120
<v Speaker 1>so you're feeling like in the moment you're there, you're

0:58:04.120 --> 0:58:08.720
<v Speaker 1>with the kids, you are enjoying the thing, but then

0:58:09.560 --> 0:58:11.840
<v Speaker 1>reflecting upon your life as a whole, you're like.

0:58:11.960 --> 0:58:18.520
<v Speaker 5>I gotta get out of here, surely, yeah, not like

0:58:18.560 --> 0:58:20.400
<v Speaker 5>I gotta get the fuck out of here, but like,

0:58:21.000 --> 0:58:25.800
<v Speaker 5>do I want to be here? Edison in general have

0:58:25.840 --> 0:58:26.680
<v Speaker 5>a lot of anxiety.

0:58:29.480 --> 0:58:34.480
<v Speaker 1>It's hard because not every single thing you could choose

0:58:34.520 --> 0:58:39.960
<v Speaker 1>to do has pros and cons to it. I mean,

0:58:39.960 --> 0:58:41.840
<v Speaker 1>even if you're a voice actor, there's a whole lot

0:58:42.080 --> 0:58:47.920
<v Speaker 1>there's the whole thing of getting inconsistent work. There's you know,

0:58:47.960 --> 0:58:49.840
<v Speaker 1>you would have to kiss a lot of frogs if

0:58:49.880 --> 0:58:51.080
<v Speaker 1>you are a Disney princess.

0:58:53.720 --> 0:58:54.240
<v Speaker 5>That's fine.

0:58:54.720 --> 0:59:02.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm that was a really silly joke that I just made.

0:59:03.320 --> 0:59:05.680
<v Speaker 5>I know, I love it very quick.

0:59:07.960 --> 0:59:09.280
<v Speaker 1>I was trying to think of something. That's all I

0:59:09.280 --> 0:59:16.479
<v Speaker 1>could think of. H I don't know, man, I don't

0:59:16.480 --> 0:59:25.360
<v Speaker 1>know has talking about test talking about this helped at all.

0:59:22.680 --> 0:59:25.200
<v Speaker 5>Like a little bit, Like I know, I've thought about

0:59:25.240 --> 0:59:29.080
<v Speaker 5>making tiktoks before of like singing me singing and stuff

0:59:29.120 --> 0:59:32.600
<v Speaker 5>like that. I've just been too lazy to do it.

0:59:33.360 --> 0:59:35.960
<v Speaker 5>And it's just given me another chance to think about like,

0:59:36.040 --> 0:59:38.520
<v Speaker 5>you know, maybe it's not like a bad idea, And

0:59:38.720 --> 0:59:40.720
<v Speaker 5>so what if my students find it, maybe they'll be

0:59:40.800 --> 0:59:42.440
<v Speaker 5>the only views that I get.

0:59:42.640 --> 0:59:44.320
<v Speaker 1>See, there we go. That's how I think. That's a

0:59:44.360 --> 0:59:47.880
<v Speaker 1>good way to think about your students finding your your

0:59:47.920 --> 0:59:50.680
<v Speaker 1>your tiktoks. Is this just more views for you?

0:59:54.040 --> 0:59:54.280
<v Speaker 6>True?

0:59:54.920 --> 0:59:59.760
<v Speaker 5>True? This is a positive. Gotta look at the positive.

1:00:00.040 --> 1:00:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Hannah Montana, Is there anything else you want to

1:00:03.040 --> 1:00:04.600
<v Speaker 1>say to the people of the computer before we go?

1:00:10.080 --> 1:00:11.840
<v Speaker 5>Only do one illegal thing at a time.

1:00:13.480 --> 1:00:13.760
