Speaker 1: step up? Where you at my house in Nashville, and uh,

38
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: I live downtown, so things are really peculiar, you know. Uh.

39
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: And a lot of people they have you know, they

40
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: live outside in the country or the suburbs or you know. Um,

41
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: but I live in the epicenter of tourism in Nashville, Tennessee,

42
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: and I'm used to hearing music blaring up and down

43
00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: the streets here and and seeing bats red parties and

44
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: everybody you know, rocking their cowboy hats in their cowboy

45
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: boots and partying and taking fettle taverns up down the

46
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: street and hanging at at our bar, and bands playing

47
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: live everywhere, and people laying out by the pool. And

48
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: it is absolutely a ghost town. And at this point, um,

49
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: you know, there's a there's a park near me, and

50
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: there's always been like a high concentration of homeless folks

51
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 1: in that park and that hasn't ended. That's still there.

52
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: So when you go outside now, there's a higher population

53
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: of homeless walking around in that area and on the

54
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: streets than there are people with uh with jobs or

55
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: with or with homes. It's really it's just it's just

56
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: upside down around here. It's just it's just absolutely it's

57
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: absolutely twilight zone. It's crazy. Hey, it's just even like

58
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 1: l a play is just like there's nobody on the freeways,

59
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: there's nobody in town. And it's great, Like I love

60
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: that people are practicing the social distancing and the safer

61
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: at home and staying at home. Um, trying to like

62
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: curve this and end this as soon as possible. I

63
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: love the people are doing it, but man does it

64
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,839
Speaker 1: create an eerie feeling. But the more space you see,

65
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: the less people you see out Like I remember a

66
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago they gave the safer at Home

67
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: order in l A, encouraging people to stay at home

68
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: and Runyon Canyon, all the hiking trails, the beaches. Everything

69
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: was still just slammed. Um people weren't. Yeah, because businesses

70
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: have shut down. People were supposed to be at home,

71
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: but then they were. They were out and about because

72
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: the weather was great. They wanted to be active until

73
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: they really got the scope of how how serious this

74
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: thing is, this coronavirus is, and then have now taken

75
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: upon themselves and and are staying at home. So it's

76
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: nice to see people and hearing for that. Yeah, I

77
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: I agree with you, But you know, for for people

78
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: who live in apartment buildings and stuff like that, I mean,

79
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: I don't see how you are really how you can

80
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: really feel safe if you need to go outside the

81
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: walk your dog, um, because you know you're gonna hop

82
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: an elevator if you live above you know, six floors,

83
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 1: you know, um, and what do you do? Like? You know,

Speaker 1: my way down to walk the dog, um and uh,

86
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,640

Speaker 1: the building and uh, you know, the door opened up

88

Speaker 1: send it back up. You know what I mean, to

Speaker 1: sorry about that. He goes hey. He goes I don't

96
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: want to have to take you off my playlist. I said, actually, man,

97
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: will do you take my phone number down? Because it's

98
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: just in case it hits the fan around here. We

99
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: need to be able to contact each other. It was

100
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: like absolutely on that playlist. Get them all those royalties again.

101
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I get you though. That's one thing. Unfortunately

102
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,679
Speaker 1: having a home, we just have a private entrance. Um.

103
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, if you're in a if you're in an

104
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: apartment building or condo building, my heart goes out to you.

105
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: But even when I go out, if I go out anywhere,

106
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 1: I'm going with a face mask and I'm going with

107
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 1: latex gloves on. Um every single time, just be because

108
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: I don't want only not only do I not want

109
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: to get it, I don't want to be responsible for

110
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: spreading it. So if I did get it, I don't

111
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: want to give it to anybody or you know, anything

112
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 1: like that. It's just I've been watching. Yeah, I've been

113
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: watching this for months. Like when they started talking about

114
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: it in January, I'm like, this thing's coming. Um. I

115
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: never anticipated it would be this big, but I was like,

116
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: this is coming. Um, But man, is it a wild time.

117
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: But I also think it's an I also think it's

118
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: a real the travesties aside the death's acide. That's that

119
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: is tragic. We're not we're not skipping over that. That

120
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: is absolutely tragic. But I also think it's a real

121
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: opportunity in ways because there's not as much distraction in

122
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: our life of we're not driving to and from work,

123
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: there's more time at home. It's a real opportunity in

124
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,119
Speaker 1: other ways to experience different parts of life, maybe parts

125
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: that we overlook, um, things that we don't dedicate enough

126
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: time to anything like that. About that, that's a great point.

127
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: Are there any ways in your life currently where you're like, wow,

128
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: this is actually you know, it's as tragic as it is.

129
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: I've found a way to make it a blessing and

130
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: make it an opportunity in ways that I never would

131
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: have experienced before. Uh Man, you know, I do, I

132
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: do understand that. I do totally understand what you're talking about.

133
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people who live particularly

134
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: regular day to day life where they you know, they

135
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: leave their families to go to work, they come back,

136
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: they're too tired to hang with their family, this and that,

137
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: I could totally see that being UM time a beautiful thing,

138
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: being able to spend some time with their family, almost

139
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: like forced socialization in that way, you know. UM. But

140
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: at the same time, you know the uh, you know,

141
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 1: being being pulled away from a normal, normal, normal, other circumstances. Obviously,

142
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: it's so so heavy on you. UM. For me, I've

143
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: been applying it, you know, trying to get creative. But

144
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: there was a period there I just really felt like

145
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: I couldn't get greeted. You know. Um, I was just

146
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: too occupied with all right, I gotta go get food.

147
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: I gotta get these essentials, those essentials. I need to

148
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: go get this. And I mean, you know, immediately when

149
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: all the stuff started piling on, you know, I was

150
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: out totally outside of the how do I see the

151
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: beauty in this? And was completely in prepper mode, strictly

152
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: prepper mode, you know what I'm saying. Um, And you know,

153
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: people have their own version of prepper mode. Mine wasn't

154
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: going and buying buying every roll of toilet paper. Um.

155
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: You know, I'm from the I'm from the woods, so

156
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: my pepper mode is totally different. And so it's funny

157
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 1: when I have conversations. Yeah, I'm all stocked up on

158
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: toilet praper, you know, I'm like, that's your prep? What

159
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: kind of prep is that? You know what I'm saying?

160
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: So did you prep? What? What about food? Did you

161
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: get any food? Not yet? But I got all the

162
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: toilet paper probably, but how kinds of steaks sitting in

163
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 1: your freezer? But I'll tell you, man. Um, so there's that,

164
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: there's that. But um, but you are right, I think

165
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: there really is beauty and finding the fact that you

166
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: do know the people you can rely on and the

167
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: people who are contacting you, and the people who are

168
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: reaching out and acting like they care about you, UM,

169
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: because that matters, you know, that matters, UM. And my

170
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: personal life here, it's been tough because my dad had

171
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: open heart surgery, uh some months back, and you know,

172
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: he's been he had a couple of strokes, so I

173
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: can't really leave him alone, UM, And so it's been

174
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 1: tough because you know, there's that balance of oh, how

175
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 1: much contact can I have about that? How close can

176
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: I do? You my dad? But at the same time,

177
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: you know, if I wasn't checking in on my dad,

178
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: I want to you know, seeing him having a seizure,

179
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And so and so these

180
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: are the things. These are just different, you know, equations,

181
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 1: and it's just different calculates for every household and every

182
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: every family member or roommate or friend or whoever you

183
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: you are hunkered down with. UM. You know, we're all

184
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,839
Speaker 1: just doing the best weekend to you know flattened so

185
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: called flatten the curve. UM. But there's so many other

186
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 1: factors here that I think are you know, very horrifying

187
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 1: to me. Um, this this virus is one thing. Yes,

188
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: it is lethal to some people, but you know, what

189
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: about the suicide rate? What about the suicide rate? You

190
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 1: know what, how is that going to change? Because people

191
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: are being as lutely wiped out, unemployed, hungry, you know, Um,

192
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: their lives are falling apart. Yeah, what about the other

193
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: deaths that are going to come from the stress of

194
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: this that? You know, the anxiety creates its own health problems,

195
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: you know, And so so there's there's other things here

196
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,599
Speaker 1: that I find really terrifying, way past the virus itself,

197
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 1: and then said the the the you know, the effects

198
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: on the economy. I mean I own a bar here. Um,

199
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: I mean I could see it from my house and

200
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 1: you know just at our bar. Uh, you know, the

201
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: bar had to shut down. And that's what is that?

202
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 1: Sixty five people too who can't work? Yeah, you know

203
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: how the pressing is that? And and um, you know

204
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: oftentimes when you're working in that industry, you know, you're

205
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: you're not living check to check or week to week.

206
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,319
Speaker 1: That's day to day money, man, That's that's your money

207
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: or the day is the money you're relying on for

208
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: that You're really like, how do I get through today, well,

209
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: I gotta make X amount of dollars by the end

210
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 1: of the day or on I'm screwed. It's tough that

211
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: you can feel that, you can just feel the energy

212
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: in the world. You can, UM, But I don't believe

213
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: that they're that people are. You hear about business owners

214
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: taking out loans to be able to still pay employees, like,

215
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 1: there's some amazing stories that you still hear about. Like

216
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: I said before, I think I think some of the

217
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: best parts of humanity come out in a crisis time. UM.

218
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: I've reached out to a couple of people that I

219
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,600
Speaker 1: know are low income, UM that I've had to do

220
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 1: some work for me, for us, UM, just to make

221
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: sure they're okay. UM. I think so much of that

222
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 1: is going on. The people that can afford to do it,

223
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: I think are reaching out with all of branches, left,

224
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 1: right and center to help anybody. At least they are

225
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 1: and they do. But most businesses simply don't have UH

226
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: an operating account that would permit it. Period. The majority

227
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: of businesses simply don't live in that level of surplus. Period. Yeah,

228
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be scary, And the fact is there's what's

229
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: that Yeah, keep going. What are you gonna say. I'm

230
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: just saying that the you know, there comes a point

231
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: where you know, you can't borrow any more money for something.

232
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like, not every business can

233
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: operate like that. Yeah, you know so, And it's it's

234
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 1: it's insane, it's gonna be. There's many things coming. You

235
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: touched on on a lot of them. There's many things coming.

236
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: One there's I mean, we haven't even hit the peak

237
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: of this yet right there talking that. You know, listen

238
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: to President Trump talking about this week is gonna be

239
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of deaths this week in

240
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: the US, and then next week might even be the week. Um,

241
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: there's projections going out that I'm listening to a lot

242
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: of stuff on coronavirus. There's projections that, um, it's gonna

243
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: be heavy until the end of June and then maybe

244
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: middle of August it's gonna start slowing down. Um, there's projections,

245
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: projections of hundreds of thousands of death upward of two

246
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: hundred thousand deaths, um. And then they're talking about a

247
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: second wave of this. What happens when the economy picks

248
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 1: up starts up again, everybody goes back to work. Is

249
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: the second wave of this in the fall. And then,

250
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: like you said, Gav, the amount of fallout from this,

251
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: the um collateral damage, the suicides, the drug use, the anxiety, UM,

252
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: these things that are not being measured right now and

253
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: won't have statistics on, but are definitely going to affect people,

254
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: uh in right now or in the months coming. And

255
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: they've done studies. They look at studies for and stats

256
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: from the Great Depression, how drug use and suicide spiked

257
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: back then. Um. There's a lot of other things also

258
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: for for affluent people, people who own a business, somebody

259
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: like somebody like yourself. You own a bar, you own

260
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 1: a restaurant, and then all of a sudden you aren't

261
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: able to operate. That is your life savings put into

262
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: a restaurant or a business, whatever it is, and now

263
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: all of a sudden you're bankrupt. That is that is

264
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: another layer of stress, of anxiety, of pressure, and beyond

265
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: and beyond that, it's the it's the it's not even

266
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: about the debt. It's not about the loan, it's not

267
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: about your rent, it's not about the bills. Ultimately, it's

268
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: I have pride in providing jobs to people, It makes

269
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: them a living, It pays for their houses, it pays

270
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: for their cars, do you know what I mean? And now,

271
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 1: if those businesses can't stay open, those people have no

272
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: way to generate income. Do you know what I mean?

273
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: And uh, And so it's it's beyond what what builds

274
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: you have for that place. The biggest thing that upsets

275
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,919
Speaker 1: me is there's no jobs for those people. There's no

276
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: jobs for those people in these in that entire service

277
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: industry doesn't exist. You know, here's a question for you, Gav.

278
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: But here's a question for you. So as a as

279
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: a bar owner, right like, right now, we're not being

280
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: told anything on when the economy is going to reopen,

281
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: when we're going to go back to work, anything like that. Um,

282
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 1: they're saying, they're saying they're hopeful for May, maybe saying

283
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 1: they're hopeful for June. But we're not being told a

284
00:17:55,200 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: definitive clearly because we haven't UM level the curve yet

285
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: here um and got control of this. But at what

286
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:09,919
Speaker 1: point do business owners forgo that and say I need

287
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: to open up, I need to know a great it's

288
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: you know, it's a great question. It's a perfect question.

289
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: Here's the The interesting thing that's happened with the rise

290
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 1: of of of the technologies and social media is that

291
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: you can really push certain social agendas and a common

292
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: social consciousness. Right. The bad thing about that, the bad

293
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: thing about that is whatever the rolling ball is down

294
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 1: the hill, I want it's decided which ball that is

295
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: that's rolling down the hill of the collective consciousness, which

296
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: the social media, which social media has to ultimately lean

297
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: in become. Right, whatever the pop culture version of opinion

298
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: is becomes the gospel. Right. So if you were to

299
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 1: open up the bar, let's say and people go, fuck it,

300
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: let's just go have a good time. And if I'm

301
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: gonna go down, I may as well go down in flames. Right,

302
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: go out there and take a risk, and if you

303
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,320
Speaker 1: get sick, and get sick, right, ask from your approach

304
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: and you open the doors. He said, let's sew a

305
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: party a coronavirus party. Right. If you do that, hey, yeah,

306
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: some people might show up, but be you would absolutely basically,

307
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: as far as public opinion goes, run the risk of

308
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:55,719
Speaker 1: having your ankles shackled in chains and thrown into the

309
00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 1: river for your reputation because your social cond just miss

310
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,879
Speaker 1: wasn't elevated enough to care about the planet in the world,

311
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: and the people you understand to be an element of

312
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:13,919
Speaker 1: that demonizing you for operating, which is understandable because I

313
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: understand all schools of thought here, which are survival, staying afloat,

314
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 1: putting food on the table, needing to eat, and at

315
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: the saint time, running the risk of infecting somebody because

316
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: you were too callous or not careful enough. Right, So

317
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: we're all in this huge predicament. And but you know

318
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 1: what I think is the biggest thing and the scariest

319
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: thing about this whole this whole environment right now, is

320
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 1: we run the risk of setting precedent for losing certain

321
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 1: constitutional rights whenever a so called threat arrives at any kind.

322
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: That's the scary part of all this to me. I'm

323
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 1: a freedom guy. I'm gonna live at your own risk

324
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: personality type. So if you're told you're not permitted to

325
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: do this or that because it makes you not careful

326
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: enough for you know, the you know, other people in

327
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: your society, and they'll shame you for going into the

328
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: grocery store, you know, or two of you walking close together. Um,

329
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: because it's a medical risk. We're a life risk of

330
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 1: some kind, we we start to run the risk. Then

331
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: at that point of setting a precedent of being able

332
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: to enforce anything, any sort of restriction, any behavioral restriction,

333
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: simply by coming out and saying, oh, there's another virus.

334
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: Everybody stay home and you're not allowed to leave your house.

335
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 1: You could say it at any point. I was listening

336
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 1: to I was listening to something on this yesterday. Um,

337
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 1: they're talking about how after nine eleven, how all of

338
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: a sudden T s A. There was pat downs and

339
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,479
Speaker 1: people were in an operation. They're patting me down at

340
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: the airport. Are you kidding me? They're touching patting me down. Now,

341
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: fast forward, fast forward twenty years. Um, it's nothing. You

342
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 1: get to the airport, you just expect it, right, It's

343
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: just part of everyday life. Now. So now now the

344
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: new norm, like you said, is oh there's a virus,

345
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: everybody stay at home. We stop everything. Businesses shut down,

346
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: stay at home, schools shut down, work from home, stay

347
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: at home. Whole economy shuts down. And I see what

348
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: you're saying is that the future is that going to

349
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: be a new norm five years from now, ten years

350
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 1: from now, with that's right, yeah, when something comes down

351
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: spot on, because guess what, anytime they pat me down,

352
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 1: I'm still thinking in my head, just can hands off

353
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: of me? Anybody gets anybody gets six. No, it's true,

354
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: it's true. That's what I'm thinking. I'm thinking, get your

355
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: hands off of me. I haven't committed a crime. I'm

356
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: not even suspected of a crime. You shouldn't be allowed

357
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: to touch me. Yeah. Man, it's interesting debate. We could

358
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: go all day on this because they're doing it there.

359
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: It's like, it's not against you, it's nothing personal against you.

360
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 1: It's a it's a safety obviously you know what it's for.

361
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: But I get your pushback. Well, you know what, when

362
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 1: you can point to the examples of when it's actually

363
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: work to stop somebody from taking down a plane, then

364
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: you'll have an argument. But they're there army, so you know,

365
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:52,200
Speaker 1: to discussion right now. So the same discussion right now

366
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 1: about coronavirus. There's I've heard a rumor that apparently they

367
00:23:58,600 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 1: and I don't know if this is true. It's just

368
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,679
Speaker 1: I'm listening to all kinds of different resources on this.

369
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 1: So I've heard a rumor that they figure everybody is

370
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: going to get this by the end of the year

371
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 1: in the US that everyone will have got it, And

372
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: if they announced that now, everyone would just go out

373
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 1: right now because they're like, well, I'm gonna get it

374
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: at some point, So why why not? Like why would

375
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: I Why don't I open my bar? You know, because

376
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to get it. Patrons are going to get it.

377
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: Why not get it now and not lose the flood

378
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: the health care system and then you have real problems. Yeah,

379
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 1: But then there's also there's also the weight hearing some

380
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 1: really interesting debates on the weight of the economic cost

381
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: versus the life cost. And everyone will always say that

382
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:51,879
Speaker 1: they are fully on board for saving as many lives

383
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: as possible. I believe every single human would say that. Um,

384
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: but there's discussions that if we shut down the entire

385
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: cont economy for months more, you know, and the death

386
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 1: rate is two thousand people, or what if we don't

387
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: shut anything down past April and the death rate is

388
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: a hundred and forty people. People are really having this

389
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 1: discussion is it worth there's sixty lives difference there. Let's

390
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: just say that's what it was. Would it be worth

391
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:29,439
Speaker 1: the shutdown? You know? Because how many you haven't factored

392
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: in suicides or um like if if businesses go under,

393
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: if people lose their homes, um their life savings. You're

394
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: looking at suicide, drug youth, Um you have more casualties. Well,

395
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 1: does it even out over the course of a year.

396
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 1: There's some real interesting discussions. And none of this is

397
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 1: meant to be unsympathetic or uncompassionate or unempathic. They're just

398
00:25:56,320 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 1: looking at real world possibilities to try iran guide this

399
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: thing forward in a in a state of complete uncertainty. Um,

400
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: it's just fascinating to learn, to listen and to learn

401
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: it really is just fascinating to hear some of the

402
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: best minds deal with a black swan event that we've

403
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: never experienced in our lifetime. But you know what, but

404
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: look at all the look at all the numbers, man,

405
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 1: I mean, look at the types of numbers you have,

406
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: the types of deaths you have from the flue season,

407
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: the types of deaths you have from car accidents per day.

408
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, are we gonna pull We're gonna

409
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 1: stop all traffic? You're gonna stop all traffic because the

410
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: amount of deaths every day in the United States. No,

411
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: they're not. They're not because they would create an economic

412
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: melt down, one just like the one that's happening right now.

413
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 1: Um so so yeah, I do understand the concept of

414
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: being socially conscious and wanting to save lives. My worry

415
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: is at it it's not going to work, and we're

416
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 1: going to end up with You're gonna end up with

417
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: many cases of people who um, and let me point

418
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: this out, by the way, just prior to this becoming

419
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 1: a much bigger thing, we had the tornado here in

420
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: Nashville about a mile from my house, you know, and

421
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 1: there's people who lost their home then lost their job

422
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 1: because of this economic meltdom. Yeah, and they're gonna end

423
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 1: up losing family members anyway from the virus. So they're

424
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: gonna be people with no jobs, no house, and no

425
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 1: family member of some kind. You know. We're trying to

426
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 1: stop it. I understand we're taking an approach, but my

427
00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 1: fear is ultimately that basically every time to go him,

428
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 1: it gets in the ball to do something, even when

429
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: it's with good intentions, it's set a bad precedent and

430
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 1: creates more harm and good. Ah, that's it's such an

431
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: interesting debate, man, It just is. It's just such a

432
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: I love looking at both sides of it. I love

433
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: looking at actually two sides of this. Definitely two sides

434
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: to this, there really are. And I think that we're

435
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:32,159
Speaker 1: both understanding that that there is obviously a threat. The

436
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 1: virus is definitely a threat. You know, my father is

437
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: at risk for this, you know, Um, obviously we're all

438
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: at risk for this, but his, his, he statistically runs

439
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 1: a much greater risk if he if you get this

440
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: um of not surviving it or impassing to him much

441
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: more severely. Um. So unfortunately, you know it hasn't happened yet, um,

442
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: thank god. But um, but you know, he and I

443
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: discussed this, you know, he and I discussed this because

444
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: you're talking about somebody who you know, he's got sons

445
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: who were in businesses, right, and you know anxiety or

446
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: shress can bring on another stroke for him, yeah, or seizure.

447
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: You see. So it's creating other factors by making the

448
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 1: economy suffer see treating medical factors for people with other

449
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 1: medical conditions. When the economy uh comes to a screeching pault,

450
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 1: they're they're having debates about like is it what is

451
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 1: the blowback? You know, what is the collateral damage? If

452
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 1: we open it back up? Or what is the collateral

453
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: damage if we keep the economy closed, like waging the

454
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: flateral damage versus the lives lost due to the virus. Um.

455
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 1: It's a fascinating discussion. Nobody's right on it, nobody has

456
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: the crystal ball on it. Um. I agree, I agree

457
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 1: in minds working hard on it, I'm sure. Um, but

458
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: we're gonna agree. What What are the what are the

459
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: banks supposed to do? I mean, what are the banks

460
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: supposed to do? What are the property owners supposed to do?

461
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: What are the h O ways supposed to do? You know?

462
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: Can they go around collecting their fees if there's nobody

463
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 1: working in the buildings to you know, provide maintenance anymore?

464
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: Do they still get their fees? Uh? Do they? You

465
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying? Uh? You know, can the banks

466
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: go and collect if there's no if if the engine

467
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: has come to a halt, can they still say you

468
00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: owe this, you owe that? You know what? As I'm

469
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: listening to you talk, it's what's really become an apparent

470
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 1: to me is just are how high our level of

471
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: dependency is as human beings, as society? Because all of

472
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: a sudden, some of these things go away. Like, let's say,

473
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the virus was so bad that

474
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: people did not want to work at all at grocery stores,

475
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: and food was not shipped to a grocery store. Right now,

476
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: people training because they have to wait to get into

477
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: the store. Or you can only buy x amount of

478
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: an item to two eggs or two things of eggs,

479
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 1: things of milk, or one thing of toilet paper. Everything

480
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: is rationed right now because everything is everybody is so hectic. Um,

481
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: and there there's a lot of complaints and stuff going

482
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: on about that, but this stuff is still being delivered

483
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: to us. You know. Take away our basic fundamental services

484
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: and there would be ka utter chaos in the world. Um,

485
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: you know what it is. Interestingly, let me let me

486
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 1: liken it to something I find fascinating. Okay, So, over

487
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: the years, we've lost a ton of manufacturing jobs in

488
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: the United States, in absolute ton of them, right and

489
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 1: fortunately there are some manufacturers that still exist in the country.

490
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: I remember years ago, but uncle said to me when

491
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 1: I was griping about a band out for some car company.

492
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: He said, yes, I know the complaints and it's legitimate.

493
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: But he said to me, but God forbid there's a war,

494
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 1: you're going to need somebody to make the tanks. And

495
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: I said, you know what, good point. Interestingly, we're not

496
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: building tanks right now for this. We're making masks, we're

497
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 1: making respirators. So it makes sense why you need manufacturing

498
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: in your own country right now? I liken that to

499
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: manufacturing I'm stretching, but to the manufacturing from your home.

500
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: Why do we need the grocery store because nobody knows

501
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 1: how to fucking garden anymore, because nobody knows how to

502
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 1: plant a tomato. All your buddies should tell you how

503
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: educated they are because they have a master's degreeing, am

504
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: I here, how about you plant me a tomato genius?

505
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: Right so so, and then the right so so. Then

506
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: at that point there, what's that? It's just lazy too? Well,

507
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,479
Speaker 1: what the irony is that we've learned all of these

508
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 1: exceptional skills and we have all these exceptional degrees that

509
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: actually don't provide I had any essential services to ourselves,

510
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 1: like having your own food. God forbid. They shut the

511
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: grocery store down, God forbids. Yeah, it's people will be

512
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:19,720
Speaker 1: eating each other in three days on the street, um convenience.

513
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: As I'm thinking about it. Convenience induces a state of

514
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: almost learned helplessness, no doubt about it. Man and we.

515
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: I feel like this is a lesson of for a

516
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: lot of us who live in an urban environment or

517
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:42,720
Speaker 1: a suburban environment. I'm just vulnerable. I need to manufacture,

518
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 1: I need to grow. I need to be able to exist, survive,

519
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 1: thrive on my own. If need be completely and have

520
00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 1: these things, these ducks in a row du I've talked

521
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 1: created completely different reality. I've talked about this for a

522
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: long time in my life. Um, I started hunting when

523
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 1: I was thirteen. I hunt whitetailed deer back in Canada.

524
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: Grew up fishing, and I've always said I've always wanted

525
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,399
Speaker 1: to be able to hunt and fish because if if

526
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 1: we ran I always said, if we ran out of oil,

527
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: if the world ran out of oil, things are going

528
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: to come to a screeching halt. And I need to

529
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 1: be able to provide. So I'm actually up at my

530
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 1: lake house in Idaho, where you have half acres on

531
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: water front. I can fish. UM can't hunt now, it's

532
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: not the season, but you can if if need be.

533
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 1: I would hunt in the hills, in the in the

534
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,759
Speaker 1: in the woods back here, and I have water. You know,

535
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 1: I could burn wood and oil. I could survive. And

536
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,319
Speaker 1: I've always thought about that, and it's a far from

537
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 1: thought like I always thought about that. It's like it's

538
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: so far fetched. The world's not gonna shut down. It's

539
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: going to continue to operate. My fear was if we

540
00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 1: ran out of oil that it would But I never

541
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:00,959
Speaker 1: thought of a virus or something like this that would

542
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: come along. But I will say it is nice to

543
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: have skills to be able to provide for yourself. Beat

544
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: the conveniently to a store and buying food is wonderful

545
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 1: and a gift from God. Um. And I'm so grateful

546
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 1: for the people that are responsible for getting that food there,

547
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: for allowing myself to um but also to live off

548
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 1: the land, whether it's gardening, fishing, hunting. UM. I think

549
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 1: is just an underrated life skill that you know. But

550
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: here's the great irony of it, man. You know, the

551
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 1: great irony of it is for so many people who

552
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: leave a country environment and go to the city or

553
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 1: the suburbs or whatever. If you say you grew up

554
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: like that, you were looked at like such a hillbilly.

555
00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 1: You were looked at socially in those city environments by

556
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 1: so many of those types of people, like you are

557
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: so far beneath them because you would take a life. Oh,

558
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 1: I see what you're saying. Yeah, I actually I get

559
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 1: what you're saying when I tell people in Manhattan that

560
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,720
Speaker 1: I was from upstate New York. And yeah, of course

561
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 1: we went hunting when we're you know where we're growing up. Oh, oh, dude,

562
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: when I was when I was thirteen. Like, hunting is

563
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,960
Speaker 1: a very spiritual thing for me. Um, Hunting isn't about

564
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 1: going and killing. I've never hunted for sport. The only

565
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 1: reason I would ever hunt is to eat the meat

566
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: of whatever I was going to hunt. And I remember

567
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 1: when I was thirteen when I first killed a white

568
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 1: tailed deer, and our family, my dad and I and

569
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 1: my brother made deer sausage for our family. Um. I

570
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 1: prayed every single night for a week, thanking that animal

571
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: for giving its life to be able to provide for

572
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,920
Speaker 1: our family. It is, well, you know what, and you

573
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: know what, all all those things that you did, you

574
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:07,040
Speaker 1: wereciating it and and and you know, fishing, these really

575
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 1: are the fundamentals, the fundamentals of of surviving, of surviving,

576
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 1: UM and people just they don't do it, or they

577
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 1: never did it, or they look down to look down

578
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:31,800
Speaker 1: on it. I think some Yeah, like I was fortunate

579
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: to have my dad taught me to fish, to fill

580
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,040
Speaker 1: it fish, to be able to catch a fish and

581
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:39,799
Speaker 1: be able to put it, like to fill it it,

582
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: to put it on a hand, to be able to

583
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,799
Speaker 1: cook it. Um. Anyway, we could go to this all day,

584
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: but let's get one of our How Men Think podcast

585
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: team members has had coronavirus. Remember Hanna who worked for

586
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: us before she went back to school. She was in

587
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 1: turn worked with us UM. She was traveling abroad in Spain,

588
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: studying abroad in Spain, and ended up getting coronavirus. So

589
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: we're gonna get Hanna on right after this break. We're

590
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 1: gonna hear her story back from break on another coronavirus

591
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 1: edition of Hell Men Think. I hate not seeing your

592
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,760
Speaker 1: face gave. I hate not seeing Rick Dmitri, Ryan Easton,

593
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:34,440
Speaker 1: our engineer, he Tory Danielle. I like, one of my

594
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:37,799
Speaker 1: favorite things about doing this podcast, probably my favorite thing,

595
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,319
Speaker 1: UM is seeing the people that we do it with,

596
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,800
Speaker 1: and any other favorite is being able to serve our listeners,

597
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: our community. But I miss seeing everybody's face and back

598
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: with us. We have Hannah, Hannah, how are you hey?

599
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:56,399
Speaker 1: I'm good? How are you? I miss everyone? One yeah, one,

00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 1: we miss you. Um. You were part of the initial

601
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 1: how Men Think team until you went back to school. Um,

602
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 1: but I want to send my heart out to Johanna.

603
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 1: How are you doing? Um? Can you share your story

604
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:15,280

00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: much much better now, thank goodness. But I came back.

606
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: So I was spending a brown Barcelona, and I came

607
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: back because my school in Spain sent all the kids home,

608
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:32,240
Speaker 1: and so I came back on March thirte that Friday,

609
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 1: and like two days previous to leaving Spain, I wasn't

610
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,439
Speaker 1: feeling my best, but I don't think I really took

611
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 1: it seriously. I kind of just like pushed past. I

612
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 1: was trying to pack up all my things and just

613
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: get out of there as quickly as possible. And so

614
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 1: then a couple of days later, Monday, UM, after I

615
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:55,240
Speaker 1: got back, I got tested and for four days around

616
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: that time was like my worst. I was like in bed,

617
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:01,320
Speaker 1: couldn't really move, I had troubled breathing, but I didn't

618
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,880
Speaker 1: have that high of a fever. It's a slight fever.

619
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 1: It was just like this terrible chest pain. And I

620
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: got my results back a week later and tested positive

621
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: and have had to just really lay low and quarantine,

622
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 1: and so has my family because they have all been

623
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:22,080
Speaker 1: exposed to me as well. So it's been an ordeal.

624
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 1: Oh my heart goes out to you. I'm glad you know. Um,

625
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 1: so you are currently at home at your mom and

626
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: dad's place or where are you at now, Hannah? Yeah, correct,

627
00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 1: So I flew back into San Francisco and now I'm

628
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: just at my parents house with my sister and we've

629
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 1: all been just quarantining together or no nobody no. So

630
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 1: they have been completely asymptomatic, have been feeling a hundred

631
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: percent and they kind of like wish that they could

632
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: get tested just because they were around me and exposed

633
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: to me, but they can't get test it because they

634
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 1: have absolutely no symptoms, so they kind of just have

635
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: to assume that they had it and take the extra

636
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: take like extra precaution and just not see anyone, not

637
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: leave the house. And they've been just stuck in the

638
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 1: house waiting for an additional two weeks to be safe

639
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: Hannah do Um, do you have any recollection or idea

640
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 1: possibly of how you might have got coronavirus? Remember a

641
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: person coughing or I think that. I mean, I definitely

642
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 1: got it when I was in Spain, for sure, um,

643
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 1: and I had this gnarly, gnarly cough or probably like

644
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: two weeks before coming home, and I remember my parents

645
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:47,840
Speaker 1: came and they m they met me in Paris for

646
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: the weekend, and I texted my mom before meeting them,

647
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't even know if I can come,

648
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 1: I'm so sick. And I think that around that time

649
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: is when I was getting it, because everyone I was

650
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 1: with had this gnarly cough and everyone just was not

651
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 1: feeling their best. And when I heard about this, I

652
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:10,240
Speaker 1: think of, like, how many people we're sick that maybe

653
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: didn't get tested but passed passed through coronavirus. But like,

654
00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 1: I wonder what the true stats are, Like I don't think.

655
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: I don't think these stats are people that that have

656
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 1: tested positive or even a fraction of the amount of

657
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: people that have had it. No, I completely agree. I

658
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:30,600
Speaker 1: completely agree. I think that everyone I was with in Spain,

659
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: there's no way that like of us, like don't have it,

660
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 1: Like I think, so many people have it and because

661
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: they're asymptomatic, they don't even know they have it, but

662
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: their carriers and then they passed it along to so

663
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 1: many people. That's so scary. Yeah, what has been the

664
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:53,320
Speaker 1: scariest part for you about having coronavirus UM? I just worry.

665
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 1: I worry about getting it to my parents, and like

666
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: it was worrying me because when I came home, even

667
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:04,880
Speaker 1: before I got tested and before I got my test

668
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,839
Speaker 1: results back, I was exposed to my mom and she

669
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,200
Speaker 1: went grocery shopping with her grandparents, And so that's what

670
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 1: gave me so much anxiety. I was like, oh my gosh,

671
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: if I had somehow given it to my mom and

672
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: my mom gave it to my grandparents, that is what

673
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:23,319
Speaker 1: scared me. Um. And when I was sick, the only

674
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 1: thing that really was worrying me was like my chest pain.

675
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,359
Speaker 1: But I didn't have I didn't have it that bad.

676
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 1: I feel actually really lucky that I didn't have a

677
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:39,919
Speaker 1: super bad fever or get super bad symptoms. Yeah. Oh man,

678
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,759
Speaker 1: my heart goes out to you. Thank you. I know

679
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 1: it's such a food time right now, but I feel

680
00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 1: lucky that it wasn't that bad. So Hannah, thinking on big, big,

681
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:58,400
Speaker 1: big picture, what is your biggest worry about this virus?

682
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 1: Now outside of your side of your family are you

683
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 1: Are you more worried that the virus is going to spread,

684
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 1: or you more worried about the effects on the economy,

685
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 1: or if you were to choose a version of things

686
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,080
Speaker 1: you need to think you should watch out for. We

687
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 1: all need to watch out. Well, what do you think

688
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:23,919
Speaker 1: is your biggest worry? Um? Well, I would just say

689
00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: something that worries me as I see like on social

690
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 1: media also a lot of people like maybe not taking

691
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 1: it seriously because they haven't felt direct effects to them

692
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 1: or they don't know anyone, um. And so that's what

693
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 1: worries mean, is that some people just seriously aren't taking

694
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 1: it seriously at all. Um. Right, And it does worry

695
00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: me too, especially being a college student and I mean

696
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:51,759
Speaker 1: graduating from college in one year. It does worry me

697
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:55,280
Speaker 1: about jobs and also with a lot of my friends,

698
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 1: like a lot of their internships for the summers have

699
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: fallen through and now they are left with no job,

700
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: and they've been trying to reach out to people and

701
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: get something else. But everyone is just so uncertain right now,

702
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,759
Speaker 1: So I think it's scaring a lot of people, which

703
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:16,520
Speaker 1: also scares scares me at the same time. Economic times, Yeah,

704
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 1: you can always will always welcome you back to the show. Yeah,

705
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 1: thank you. I know it's I mean, I feel lucky

706
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 1: also that I mean, of course amy in everything. But

707
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: it's just like an uncertain time to like knowing that

708
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:31,959
Speaker 1: I'm going to graduate college in a year and things

709
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,320
Speaker 1: are looking great with the economy. It's unsettling, of course.

710
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: Very yah um. Yeah, I think and what you said

711
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,840
Speaker 1: they're about I have the fear of that too. Of

712
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 1: the people. People aren't taking this seriously. You know, when

713
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 1: I go up with what I The other day, I

714
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 1: was at I went to Costco to get some toilet

715
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 1: paper because I have too even year old neighbors that

716
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 1: I'm looking after this time because the wife has some

717
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,760
Speaker 1: underlying health issues. And so whenever I go out, Um,

718
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 1: I'm going gloves and I'm going masks and a hood

719
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 1: over my head. Um, and I'm at Costco and I'm

720
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,319
Speaker 1: I was one of the only ones. There wasn't very

721
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: many people with masks or gloves on, and people were

722
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: looking at me like I was like, jeezus, one guy

723
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,759
Speaker 1: walked by it goes the world is sure changed, and

724
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:29,480
Speaker 1: I should have said something to him, but I didn't.

725
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: It wasn't um, It wasn't the point of me getting

726
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 1: into it with him. But like, the reason I do

727
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 1: that is because I'm buying toilet paper for somebody that

728
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 1: has underlying health conditions. I come home, I rub it

729
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 1: down um with some cleaning wipes, and then I let

730
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: it sit here for five days before I drop it

731
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 1: on their doorstep. So it's not I don't like when

732
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,800
Speaker 1: people don't take it seriously because maybe they're not worried,

733
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:57,359
Speaker 1: but they don't know what other people have, if they're

734
00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:00,799
Speaker 1: looking after a parent, grandparents, if they have kids. It's like,

735
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,800
Speaker 1: that's my biggest fear with this too, is that people

736
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 1: don't take it seriously because they don't think it applies

737
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 1: to them, but their actions apply everybody, correct exactly. That's

738
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,160
Speaker 1: such a good point. That's such a good point. It's

739
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 1: like people don't realize that their actions could be affecting

740
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:23,720
Speaker 1: other people. Just because it doesn't affect them directly doesn't

741
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: mean that they aren't mean putting other people in danger.

742
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 1: You know what else meant? He's the other thing I

743
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 1: was I was thinking about. That was really you know,

744
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:38,799
Speaker 1: the saddest thing about all of this the idea that

745
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 1: if someone does become terminally ill from this, their family

746
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 1: members can't go visit them while they're on their way out.

747
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:52,319
Speaker 1: They can't just go to the hospital and be bedside.

748
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,160
Speaker 1: They can't tell they love them the same way. They

749
00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 1: can't make that contact, you know, so asential they're just

750
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:05,400
Speaker 1: they're dying with strangers. Yeah, there's stories on the new

751
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: boat nurses comforting. The saddest thing that is the saddest

752
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 1: part about Yeah, well, Hannah, thanks for joining us. Can't

00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,600

Speaker 1: It is very challenging, It's it is. Uh yeah, I mean, look,

795
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 1: we're all everybody in this this boat with kids where

796
00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 1: you're trying to work and do all these zooms, which

797
00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,359
Speaker 1: is a whole new phenomenon for me. Uh and my

798
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 1: two and a half year old refused to allow me

799
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: to be in any room of the house to get

800
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:38,800
Speaker 1: any quote unquote work done whatsoever. So, uh yeah, that's

801
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 1: that's the new normal. I guess. So you you continue

802
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:43,839
Speaker 1: to So you guys have found a way to do

803
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:49,359
Speaker 1: zoom calls over whatever to keep keep working. We have. Yeah,

804
00:52:49,400 --> 00:52:52,919
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you an interesting little tidbit here because

805
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:55,480
Speaker 1: that's what I'm good for. I read an article the

806
00:52:55,480 --> 00:53:00,759
Speaker 1: other day the CEO of Walmart said that shirt sales

807
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:05,839
Speaker 1: are up astronomically on at Walmart, and pants sales are

808
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:10,839
Speaker 1: down astronomically on Walmart. Nobody's buying pants anymore because in

809
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:13,359
Speaker 1: the zoom culture, all you need is a waste up.

810
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:19,840
Speaker 1: It's pretty pretty uh pretty interesting, dude. Yeah, I know

811
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:21,920
Speaker 1: what you mean, because we did that. Two of my

812
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:25,480
Speaker 1: best friends were supposed to get married March twenty two

813
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: or March twenty one, whatever it was, and they obviously

814
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,440
Speaker 1: had to postpone their wedding. It was supposed to be

815
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,920
Speaker 1: in Mexico. They had to postpone their wedding. So a

816
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 1: group of that, I think there was sixteen of us

817
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:40,879
Speaker 1: different friends, created a zoom uh call we call all

818
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 1: got on the call and then called them, and so

819
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 1: there were sixteen different screens of people up and we

820
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,640
Speaker 1: all had on our attire that we were going to

821
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:51,759
Speaker 1: wear to their wedding that day. And I just had

822
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:56,400
Speaker 1: shorts on, like a suit and tie on um above

823
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:58,920
Speaker 1: and I stood up and I just had shorts undneth.

824
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:00,760
Speaker 1: They just started laughing. So I get it. You dress

825
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:06,440
Speaker 1: up fancy for then, Yeah, it's business up top and

826
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 1: party down below. Man. So in your world, what's what's

827
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:14,000
Speaker 1: a daily like? Walk us through a normal day view

828
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:20,360
Speaker 1: right now? Ryan, when you ask about my stress and

829
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:25,719
Speaker 1: anxiety level, Uh, what I've found myself doing is I'm

830
00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 1: consuming so much news, just trying to stay ahead of

831
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,439
Speaker 1: where everything is going with this whole pandemic. And I'll

832
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:36,920
Speaker 1: lay there in bed and I'll feel a little partickle

833
00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 1: in my throat, for instance, and I'll say, oh my god,

834
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 1: this is it, this is the beginning. It's like now

835
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,000
Speaker 1: I'll try to take a deep breath and I'll feel

836
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 1: like that was Was that a normal breath? It seemed

837
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,640
Speaker 1: a little bit shorter than a normal breath, did it not?

838
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: And now I'm done this whole road of like I'm

839
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,200
Speaker 1: I give myself about two weeks. There's no more ventilators.

840
00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 1: I'm dead, and I can like it's a psycho somatic

841
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: thing where I feel anything slightly abnormal, and I believe

842
00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 1: that this is the first symptom in the beginning of

843
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 1: the end form it. Absolutely every time the A C

844
00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,000
Speaker 1: goes off in my house, I think I have a fever.

845
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,400
Speaker 1: This is this is why I love you, man. I

846
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:20,719
Speaker 1: know that that's true, and and I support you and

847
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:23,239
Speaker 1: I want to be here for you. But you are

848
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 1: also very much a worry word. You You very much are, buddy.

849
00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 1: You like, do you when you ask yourself truthfully, do

850
00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 1: you think you have it? Do you? Um is, does

851
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 1: your brain go, oh, no, you're just acting crazy Ryan,

852
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,600
Speaker 1: Or do you actually like believe that you have it?

853
00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:48,800
Speaker 1: When this these kinds of events happen, I more often

854
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,520
Speaker 1: than not, recently I'm telling myself I'm crazy, But I'm

855
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: kind of telling myself that to make myself settled down.

856
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:59,319
Speaker 1: But like, I have colleagues that have been diagnosed with it,

857
00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 1: So then I'm doing the math on how long has

858
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,839
Speaker 1: it been since I was with them? All that stuff?

859
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,560
Speaker 1: But we my my wife and I and our two

860
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:11,239
Speaker 1: kids legitimately have not left house to go even to

Speaker 1: the grocery store or anything for close to three weeks now.

Speaker 1: we had a ton of food anyway, So we've legitimately

865
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:31,120

893
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:16,440

Speaker 1: I've ever been that I know how to play an

897
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 1: instrument because when you're board, um, it's a great way

898
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 1: to burn some time, you know what I mean, and

899
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:43,640

Speaker 1: I've been taking my two and a half year old son,

911
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:33,640
Speaker 1: like from seven thirty till nine thirty, just the two

912
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:35,640
Speaker 1: of us pretty much every morning, and we'll go out

913
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:41,520
Speaker 1: into the front yard and like play baseball, soccer, like

914
00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:46,320
Speaker 1: ride the ride his scooter, all that stuff, which uh,

915
00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,240
Speaker 1: in a normal work week we just don't have the

916
00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 1: time to do. So I think that has brought brought

917
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:55,560
Speaker 1: us a lot closer together. I will say I think

918
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:58,160
Speaker 1: of the two of you a lot, uh not in

919
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:02,440
Speaker 1: a good way, which is like I did not have kids,

920
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,080
Speaker 1: if you if you don't have kids. During this whole thing,

921
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:07,800
Speaker 1: like my wife and I were talking about, it was

922
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 1: like this would be a dream in many ways, like

923
01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 1: we you don't really have to socialize with people. You

924
01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:17,200
Speaker 1: can just stay at home, watch Netflix, hang out, eat

925
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,680
Speaker 1: food like go to sleep, like just chill. There's no

926
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,080
Speaker 1: commitments that you have to do outside of the house.

927
01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:26,040
Speaker 1: It's a dream, but you guys are living there. I

928
01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:28,600
Speaker 1: got to the end of Netflix already Ryan, and then

929
01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 1: the last box says, your life sucks, it's not a movie. Um, well, Ryan,

930
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 1: we appreciate you jumping on, brother, and um, I don't

931
01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: know when was the last time we've seen you in studio.

932
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 1: It's been like six months many Honestly, Ryan takes the

933
01:00:54,760 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 1: time coming back. Really, I'm gonna talk, are you guys.

934
01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get I'm gonna give you a quick quickly

935
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:08,480
Speaker 1: little nuggets to leave on, which is somewhat genuine. There

936
01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:10,760
Speaker 1: was a an analogy I heard the other day that

937
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 1: I thought was pretty astute, which was comparing this to

938
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:17,840
Speaker 1: nine eleven and basically saying that, you know, like after

939
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 1: not eleven, the entire nation came together and we as

940
01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:24,840
Speaker 1: a community and as states all kind of keeled together

941
01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 1: through this. And you did that out in the public

942
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 1: and restaurants and bars and and through talking to people

943
01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 1: outside of your own home, be like just hanging out.

944
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 1: And this is completely isolating. Obviously, we don't have the

945
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:39,920
Speaker 1: ability to like be in front of other people in

946
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:42,400
Speaker 1: bars and restaurants, are anywhere for that matter. So it's

947
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:46,280
Speaker 1: right driving me slightly insane as a result just being

948
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 1: cooped up and going a little bit stire crazy, you

949
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:51,400
Speaker 1: know what I mean, I totally understand you know what

950
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:54,200
Speaker 1: I've been doing. Um, I don't know if you ride,

951
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:58,600
Speaker 1: but I I keep motorbikes and um just getting out

952
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:00,480
Speaker 1: of the house and getting on the road with the

953
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 1: bike and leaving the area. Don't have to talk to anybody,

954
01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:09,200
Speaker 1: You get to kind of just go off, you know,

955
01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:13,880
Speaker 1: and see she's a new you know, apocalyptic version of

956
01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:18,320
Speaker 1: the United States. On a bike is actually a pretty

957
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 1: pretty good way to find a little headroom bike. Great, yeah, Ryan,

958
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 1: quick questions. Talk to you guys. Yeah, go ahead. Yeah, man,

959
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 1: you too. How many times a day do you call

960
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:42,240
Speaker 1: your doctor? Uh? Yeah, it's a little bit of a problem.

961
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:46,640
Speaker 1: I didn't see a pandemic coming when I was blacklisted

962
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:50,040
Speaker 1: by the entire medical community. So I'm on my own here.

963
01:02:50,200 --> 01:02:54,280
Speaker 1: I'm really on my own. You just on web MD

964
01:02:54,600 --> 01:03:02,320
Speaker 1: all day long, just like buddy. That's that is. It's

965
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:05,680
Speaker 1: a tough year, in a tough spot. That that stunt

966
01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 1: you pulled a couple of years ago put you in

967
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:18,600

Speaker 1: enough of them. Really today it was awesome. We were

973
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:41,360
Speaker 1: just gone. I find to see another instant story of

974
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:45,240
Speaker 1: like fifty seven thumbnails of Coda eating a skull again.

975
01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:50,440

Speaker 1: got what he did with the medical community and now

982
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:35,640
Speaker 1: how it's just backfiring. Oh yeah, Eastern Eastern. Next, we're

01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:17,480
Speaker 1: this week, so we're gonna have one of those quarantine

993
01:05:17,560 --> 01:05:22,120
Speaker 1: birthday parties. Okay, man, give us the truth. Brother. How

994
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:24,080
Speaker 1: are you holding up? I hope everybody first, I hope

995
01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:27,760
Speaker 1: everybody is healthy and safe. But how are you holding up?

996
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: What's what's life like around your guys home right now? Uh?

997
01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:36,840
Speaker 1: You know it comes in Vaine. It's uh sometimes just

998
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:39,640
Speaker 1: I mean I'll say this, let me start. Everyone and

999
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:42,400
Speaker 1: everyone is healthy, so that's good. I'm prappy for that,

1000
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:45,200
Speaker 1: and we're doing what we need to do. Um, but

1001
01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:48,080
Speaker 1: you know, it gets chaotic. It gets chaotic in here

1002
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: and um there are times, you know, you get through

1003
01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:55,080
Speaker 1: the day and then get to that point. I feel

1004
01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:57,320
Speaker 1: a lot of people are talking about drinking and stuff

1005
01:05:57,360 --> 01:06:00,960
Speaker 1: like that. I definitely, uh, definitely have some drinks at

1006
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:05,000
Speaker 1: night that are needed. Um. The kids are hanging in there,

1007
01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:08,680
Speaker 1: many they're doing well. I think it's uh. I think

1008
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 1: I think it's tough. I think it's tough. Did they

1009
01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:16,040
Speaker 1: understand I'll say this, it's funny because I watch a

1010
01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:17,680
Speaker 1: lot of news and stuff like that, and I don't

1011
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:20,600
Speaker 1: side it on them, and so I answer questions for him,

1012
01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 1: So I think they know what's going on. UM, But

1013
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:25,439
Speaker 1: I talked to him, and I feel like that kind

1014
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,560
Speaker 1: of helps because they're not just hearing things and they're

1015
01:06:27,600 --> 01:06:33,200
Speaker 1: like kind of process it on their own. Yeah. So, UM,

1016
01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:35,160
Speaker 1: it's tough, though it's tough that I mean obviously the

1017
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,080
Speaker 1: younger one, a three year old, I don't I don't

1018
01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:40,040
Speaker 1: tell her much about anything, so she just thinks we're

1019
01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:46,280
Speaker 1: all home. So right, what's been one part of of

1020
01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:51,360
Speaker 1: the social distancing, self quarantining UM aspect that you've really

1021
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:54,320
Speaker 1: found enjoyable something that you wouldn't have otherwise done in

1022
01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:58,200
Speaker 1: the standard ordinary day to day life, working, going to where,

1023
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,280
Speaker 1: coming home. What's something that's maybe you've done personally or

1024
01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:03,920
Speaker 1: more family time, or something that that's been a blessing

1025
01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:08,040
Speaker 1: in this time for you. I'll say this life. And

1026
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 1: I think I mentioned this in the past, and I

1027
01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:11,680
Speaker 1: felt like I was being stretched into a bunch of

1028
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 1: different directions. So I've actually had the chance to kind

1029
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:17,520
Speaker 1: of slow down. We're not I'm not racing the school,

1030
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:21,000
Speaker 1: I'm not racing a soccer practice, and we're home and

1031
01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:24,120
Speaker 1: we're spending time when we're playing games, So life itself

1032
01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:27,560
Speaker 1: has been forced to slow down. So I'm appreciative of

1033
01:07:27,600 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 1: that because, um, even though i may not be sleeping,

1034
01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:34,120
Speaker 1: we're you know, I'm getting I'm getting quality time with

1035
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:36,880
Speaker 1: the family and when I'm not running here and there

1036
01:07:36,880 --> 01:07:38,760
Speaker 1: and just trying to make it to all these different things.

1037
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:43,400
Speaker 1: So so that's that's been a blessing. Um, I get

1038
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:46,000
Speaker 1: invited to more parties, you know, more FaceTime parties that

1039
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:51,320
Speaker 1: I do regular parties. So that's co col. What's been

1040
01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:55,800
Speaker 1: the hardnest part for you guys, Dmitri, What's that? What's

1041
01:07:55,800 --> 01:07:58,840
Speaker 1: been the hardest part something that's been really difficult for

1042
01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:02,600
Speaker 1: you guys during this time? Maybe just like kids to

1043
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:08,440
Speaker 1: my kids or yeah, I mean I think it's I

1044
01:08:08,480 --> 01:08:12,320
Speaker 1: think it's exactly that I think you got. I have

1045
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,240
Speaker 1: to keep things in perspective, like things that would annoy me.

1046
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:19,680
Speaker 1: I get questions from the kids NonStop, just questions that

1047
01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:23,120
Speaker 1: they wouldn't have to ask. I don't have to ask all.

1048
01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:25,080
Speaker 1: I like, if we get through this phone call, that

1049
01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:32,080
Speaker 1: someone walking in here asking me. But I was trying.

1050
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:35,120
Speaker 1: I just try and keep in mind this that they're

1051
01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,680
Speaker 1: probably asking questions because obviously they're bored and they're there

1052
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,599
Speaker 1: and they just want to interact. So the hardest part

1053
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:44,439
Speaker 1: for me has been I'm not wanting to really lose

1054
01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:47,920
Speaker 1: my temper, you know, but to not be like guys

1055
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:54,400
Speaker 1: wing alone or strut up or right. I was talking

1056
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:56,160
Speaker 1: to another friend of mine who has two kids, and

1057
01:08:56,200 --> 01:09:02,960
Speaker 1: she said, um, she she loves physical contact with because

1058
01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 1: I am dying for a moment when one kid is

1059
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:14,200
Speaker 1: not crawling on me. She was all times, and I'm

1060
01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:19,240
Speaker 1: over and this is like two weeks ago. Even I

1061
01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:22,479
Speaker 1: don't I don't sleep well, I don't take naps. I

1062
01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:24,479
Speaker 1: fell asleep on the living room Florida the other day.

1063
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:26,880
Speaker 1: It's taken a nap and one of my daughters just

1064
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:29,640
Speaker 1: walked over and gave me a hard well, woke me up.

1065
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:34,560
Speaker 1: Normally that's fantastic, but I was like, holy crap. So

1066
01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:36,559
Speaker 1: one time I fell asleep, you had to give me

1067
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:39,880
Speaker 1: a huge twenty three hours a day on the rate

1068
01:09:41,120 --> 01:09:46,559
Speaker 1: do that. How's the homeschooling going. It's good, it's good.

1069
01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:49,040
Speaker 1: There are I set up some computers in the dining room.

1070
01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:52,479
Speaker 1: It looks like a like a tell us on um,

1071
01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:54,800
Speaker 1: but there are stay right now for two weeks, which

1072
01:09:55,000 --> 01:09:56,880
Speaker 1: you think would be good, but now we've got extra

1073
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:58,559
Speaker 1: hours in a day to figure out what to do.

1074
01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 1: So that's been something um I built. They asked me

1075
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:05,360
Speaker 1: to build a port in the in the playroom, so

1076
01:10:05,400 --> 01:10:06,800
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, I'm the build you this

1077
01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:10,800
Speaker 1: epic court. I'm like, I'm gonna hang blankets and the

1078
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:13,240
Speaker 1: whole thing. And then of course I realized I can

1079
01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 1: only use what I had, so I got a little short.

1080
01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:19,080
Speaker 1: I got short of supply, so I text my body

1081
01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,400
Speaker 1: around the corner and I said, hey, do you have

1082
01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 1: any rope? And he wrote back to me, this is

1083
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 1: the most terrifying text I've ever gotten. And I don't

1084
01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:36,280
Speaker 1: contact time. Oh man, I shouldn't laugh at that, but

1085
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:41,120
Speaker 1: you make me laugh. I think you have to laugh

1086
01:10:41,160 --> 01:10:45,040
Speaker 1: at stuff. You have to just last in the world.

1087
01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:50,320
Speaker 1: I agree. I think there's I even think about, like dreaming.

1088
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:53,439
Speaker 1: I think about people. I don't want people to think

1089
01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:56,200
Speaker 1: that the world has just stopped, and that our dreams

1090
01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:59,040
Speaker 1: and everything have just stopped or been put on pause.

1091
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:01,200
Speaker 1: I think it's super important to laugh. I think it's

1092
01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:04,280
Speaker 1: super important to sing. Like gav Um, you say you

1093
01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:06,000
Speaker 1: have the ability to play an instrument and have an

1094
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:10,599
Speaker 1: outlet still an artistic expression like UM. Also the ability

1095
01:11:10,680 --> 01:11:13,960
Speaker 1: to dream like I'm thinking about things that I still

1096
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:17,679
Speaker 1: want to do. I'm not just pausing everything I think, UM.

1097
01:11:17,880 --> 01:11:20,439
Speaker 1: Mindset has to continue on and the things that bring

1098
01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 1: us joy or maybe as important now as they ever are. UM.

1099
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:28,560
Speaker 1: So I don't want to make light of that. I

1100
01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:31,679
Speaker 1: agree with man, No, it's interesting. It's a good point.

1101
01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:35,439
Speaker 1: And you know, I've been thinking about this too, just

1102
01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,920
Speaker 1: because you know, I don't want to stop doing what

1103
01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:43,879
Speaker 1: I love to do. I don't want to um ignore

1104
01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:47,559
Speaker 1: what's happening UM. And I still want to keep moving

1105
01:11:47,600 --> 01:11:50,880
Speaker 1: forward with what I've been doing, like creatively playing music,

1106
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:53,479
Speaker 1: writing songs and things like that. But it's been a

1107
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:57,960
Speaker 1: little weird because I've hit this weird place because of

1108
01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:00,680
Speaker 1: what's happened around us now, because of this moment in

1109
01:12:00,760 --> 01:12:05,000
Speaker 1: time where I'm wondering, well, is the music I was

1110
01:12:05,080 --> 01:12:08,360
Speaker 1: writing for the next records? Is it important enough? Now?

1111
01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:12,120
Speaker 1: You know? Are the is that material important enough? Uh?

1112
01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:15,320
Speaker 1: You know? Am I writing songs that are socially conscious

1113
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:18,479
Speaker 1: enough for this moment in time or for the moment

1114
01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:23,040
Speaker 1: of time that comes after this? You know? And so

1115
01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:26,320
Speaker 1: it's starting to sort of play on my mind of

1116
01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 1: how is the material I've been working on? Is the

1117
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:33,599
Speaker 1: art I've been creating? Is my messaging important enough? Am

1118
01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:37,679
Speaker 1: I capturing enough of this snapshot in time? Or or

1119
01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:41,360
Speaker 1: should I be making material that has nothing to do

1120
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 1: with this moment in time that just has to do

1121
01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:47,479
Speaker 1: with encouraging people for what comes after this? Um So

1122
01:12:47,800 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 1: it's really been interesting from a creative standpoint as a

1123
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 1: as a writer, a songwriter, of you know, am I

1124
01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 1: doing enough? Is what I have done? Is it uh

1125
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:09,240
Speaker 1: meaningful enough for this uh new version of potentially of

1126
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:13,639
Speaker 1: of outlook that people are going to have having gone

1127
01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:20,040
Speaker 1: through absolutely odd uh time? Well, whatever you do, Gav,

1128
01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:23,960
Speaker 1: don't remove the duet that we have no man, not

1129
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:30,920
Speaker 1: a chance. You're kidding me. It's called slapshot. You know.

1130
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:36,920
Speaker 1: It's interesting that you both said that, because I don't

1131
01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 1: know if it's because things are so crazy here or see.

1132
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:42,400
Speaker 1: I'm from New York, so I watched the news a lot,

1133
01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:43,840
Speaker 1: and I see what's going on there, and I have

1134
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:46,880
Speaker 1: friends and family there, so I get here a lot,

1135
01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:50,120
Speaker 1: and then with all the kids here, I think I

1136
01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:52,400
Speaker 1: live more in the minute to minute. I try and

1137
01:13:52,439 --> 01:13:55,800
Speaker 1: make things good and have fun and and I'll jump

1138
01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:58,080
Speaker 1: on in the evening and maybe FaceTime with a buddy

1139
01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:00,680
Speaker 1: and have a drink or something. But I'm doing the

1140
01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:03,679
Speaker 1: opposite of what I think, Brooks. Is what you're saying,

1141
01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:06,559
Speaker 1: is it. I'm kind of living in the moment and

1142
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 1: not able to you know, think. Obviously, I think about

1143
01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:12,960
Speaker 1: the future, and I know that that's coming at it,

1144
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:17,160
Speaker 1: but I live more minutes a minute. I think, and like,

1145
01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:19,479
Speaker 1: make this a minute good, make them and and kind

1146
01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:22,680
Speaker 1: of get through that. And I know other people are like, oh,

1147
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:24,800
Speaker 1: I'm seeing out by garage and I'm doing with this

1148
01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:27,400
Speaker 1: and I'm doing and it's like I struggle a little

1149
01:14:27,400 --> 01:14:32,599
Speaker 1: bit um creatively and motivationally to do stuff like that,

1150
01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:34,920
Speaker 1: because I'm just trying to get you know, I got

1151
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:37,320
Speaker 1: a lot going on every minute of the day. So

1152
01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:39,559
Speaker 1: I think I'm just living minutes a minute. So that's

1153
01:14:39,600 --> 01:14:43,960
Speaker 1: the interesting thought to think about. Um. I get what

1154
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:47,599
Speaker 1: you're saying, buddy. I've I've put some I don't have

1155
01:14:47,640 --> 01:14:51,000
Speaker 1: four kids, Um have a dog that consumes a little

1156
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:53,400
Speaker 1: bit of time, but don't have four kids that I

1157
01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:56,920
Speaker 1: need to give to every day. Um. But one thing

1158
01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:02,240
Speaker 1: that I've done. Focusing on during this time is pride

1159
01:15:02,240 --> 01:15:07,800
Speaker 1: of work in anything I do. Um, because because some

1160
01:15:07,840 --> 01:15:09,800
Speaker 1: things you can skip over, because in the course of

1161
01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:11,160
Speaker 1: a day, you're busy and you want to get this

1162
01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:14,439
Speaker 1: and do that, like you know, months ago when when

1163
01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,000
Speaker 1: the world was normal. But even something as simple as

1164
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:20,439
Speaker 1: like making the bad like, I'll take extra time and

1165
01:15:20,720 --> 01:15:23,320
Speaker 1: as you said, be more present just to like really

1166
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:26,800
Speaker 1: make them funny. Just you know what. I totally get it.

1167
01:15:27,120 --> 01:15:30,240
Speaker 1: I totally get it. You're just looking for something to

1168
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:32,759
Speaker 1: be good at a task, something to take your mind

1169
01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:39,040
Speaker 1: off of anything else. And just what a time. It's

1170
01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:45,040
Speaker 1: just so crazy everything, every single thing. The other day,

1171
01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:52,920
Speaker 1: I actually, uh, I contemplated cooking and egg How long

1172
01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:57,479
Speaker 1: the contemplation. It took a few hours, I thought, And

1173
01:15:57,520 --> 01:16:00,479
Speaker 1: then I decided just to uh, put water in a

1174
01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:02,400
Speaker 1: bowl and throw a snack bar in and heat it

1175
01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:07,200
Speaker 1: up in the microwave because I hate to cook. Eggs

1176
01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:10,559
Speaker 1: are a hot commodity. For a couple of weeks ago,

1177
01:16:10,680 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 1: they said, they said for holding everybody to a dozen.

1178
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:15,320
Speaker 1: At one dozen eggs, I said, I can put people

1179
01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:22,120
Speaker 1: in my house. That's one breakfast. Um, when this whole

1180
01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:24,880
Speaker 1: thing blows over, tell me. If you're open for an experiment,

1181
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:29,040
Speaker 1: we come and we put Gavi in your house and

1182
01:16:29,120 --> 01:16:36,640
Speaker 1: Gavin does your daily duties as a fog for one day.

1183
01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:40,240
Speaker 1: I'll have your kids smoking cigars and cursing at you,

1184
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:45,599
Speaker 1: but you compet. I'm open to the experiment. I'd love

1185
01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:50,800
Speaker 1: to see that you walk in the house like, oh, Dad,

1186
01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:56,280
Speaker 1: pull up a chair. I would I would pay good

1187
01:16:56,360 --> 01:17:02,200
Speaker 1: money to watch that gav Afid, Buddy, you'd be fantastic.

1188
01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:06,519
Speaker 1: I don't have to write a song, don't do it.

1189
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:13,160
Speaker 1: Thanks for coming on with us, buddy. I miss your face.

1190
01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 1: Hopefully we'll be able to do this in studio again soon. Um.

1191
01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:18,599
Speaker 1: Best to you and your family, buddy. I know you're

1192
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:20,599
Speaker 1: taking care of them, but I hope everybody stays healthy

1193
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:23,360
Speaker 1: and stay safe. Thanks man. I'd like to say one

1194
01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:25,040
Speaker 1: more thing. But I was young, I used to go

1195
01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:26,760
Speaker 1: to the zoo and I used to look at the

1196
01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:28,160
Speaker 1: animals and I was like, what are they doing? Why

1197
01:17:28,160 --> 01:17:30,240
Speaker 1: are they laying around? Get up and do something? Man.

1198
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:33,479
Speaker 1: I respect it, how I get it. Someone was looking

1199
01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:34,960
Speaker 1: at my house now and they were like, get up

1200
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:40,200
Speaker 1: or do something. I feel like, oh, I don't wait.

1201
01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:42,559
Speaker 1: Speaking of the zoo and animals. You had to have

1202
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:46,200
Speaker 1: watched Tiger King already. Have you watched it? I have,

1203
01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:48,599
Speaker 1: and you know what I heard? It was so good.

1204
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:52,800
Speaker 1: I think it is a quarantine good. If I wasn't

1205
01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:57,760
Speaker 1: quarantining about that, I'd be like, oh, man, I don't

1206
01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:05,960
Speaker 1: think TV has ever seen a character ever like Joe exotic. Um. Okay, buddy,

1207
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:13,040

1223
01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:17,759

01:19:17,760 --> 01:19:21,360
Speaker 1: are like mid day, you know, like now two to four,

1225
01:19:25,880 --> 01:19:27,639

1226
01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:32,280

1227
01:19:33,080 --> 01:19:39,760
Speaker 1: I have friends still wow, But like those kind of

1228
01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:43,960
Speaker 1: you're also kind of downtime where you know, you feel

1229
01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 1: like you want to take a nap, but you feel

1230
01:19:45,880 --> 01:19:49,960
Speaker 1: like you should be exercising or doing something. When you

1231
01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:53,040
Speaker 1: know an actuality, it's you can be doing both, you know,

1232
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:59,280
Speaker 1: so very very interesting time. Yeah, I feel like get

1233
01:19:59,320 --> 01:20:04,360
Speaker 1: the virus then get made the boredom will Yes, exactly,

1234
01:20:04,439 --> 01:20:08,160
Speaker 1: It's so true. Um, Like, you know, we try, my

1235
01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:10,080
Speaker 1: wife and I try to set up like these rules

1236
01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:13,719
Speaker 1: not rules, but like okay, let's clean the house today,

1237
01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:15,760
Speaker 1: or let's clean the kitchen. And I'm like, well, let's

1238
01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:18,439
Speaker 1: instead of trying to commit to like a whole day

1239
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:21,479
Speaker 1: of one entire process like the cleaning of the house,

1240
01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:24,439
Speaker 1: let's break it up that way. It's like it's not

1241
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,920
Speaker 1: so much of a job on us, or or it's

1242
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:29,880
Speaker 1: it's just easier to kind of you know, oh I

1243
01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,599
Speaker 1: just did two bathrooms or hey, I'm doing the kitchen today. Okay, cool.

1244
01:20:32,680 --> 01:20:36,360
Speaker 1: Then it's like it just makes it more manageable. Yeah,

1245
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:42,719
Speaker 1: how's the home school and going? How are the kids doing? Uh?

1246
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:46,240
Speaker 1: You know Brooks like, I feel very fortunate in all

1247
01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:48,519
Speaker 1: of this right now, Like the kids are at a

1248
01:20:48,520 --> 01:20:53,440
Speaker 1: perfect age their thirteen and eleven. Um, they're the homeschooling

1249
01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:57,880
Speaker 1: side of it's it's been pretty tricky. Um, the teachers

1250
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:00,839
Speaker 1: in the school district, you're putting out you know, videos,

1251
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:04,920
Speaker 1: they have video tap meetings, they have Google hangout meetings. Um,

1252
01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 1: they're really involved in a lot of it. But on

1253
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:10,360
Speaker 1: the other hand, it's like they're you know, if they

1254
01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:12,240
Speaker 1: do all their stuff for all their meetings or their

1255
01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:14,800
Speaker 1: homework or or reading, they're done by you know, one

1256
01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:18,120
Speaker 1: one o'clock one thirty, right, So then it's okay, now

1257
01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:20,519
Speaker 1: what do I do? And that's why I feel fortunate.

1258
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:22,200
Speaker 1: Our kids are at the age where they can kind

1259
01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:23,760
Speaker 1: of go on their own, Like my sundle go out

1260
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:26,280
Speaker 1: and he'll ride his bike around for an hour, come back,

1261
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:28,760
Speaker 1: play video games. You know, they're they can sort of

1262
01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:35,840
Speaker 1: quarantine themselves within our quarantined home, which is really nice. UM.

1263
01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:39,120
Speaker 1: The homeschooling, it's been kind of tricky too because like

1264
01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:44,439
Speaker 1: last Friday, I think it was UM like there's sort

1265
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:48,479
Speaker 1: of website thing like all shut down, like it broke

1266
01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:50,599
Speaker 1: or something, you know, there was a glitch or something,

1267
01:21:50,640 --> 01:21:54,040
Speaker 1: and so really there was no way to check on

1268
01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:56,759
Speaker 1: the on the homework assignment. So it's it's been tricky.

1269
01:21:56,800 --> 01:21:59,439
Speaker 1: But I do have to give credit to the district.

1270
01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:02,280
Speaker 1: They're working their tails off right now, and it's uh,

1271
01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:07,920
Speaker 1: I appreciate that and I'm thankful for them. Still so good.

1272
01:22:09,040 --> 01:22:11,080
Speaker 1: How about you, what's your daily like are you still

1273
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:15,040
Speaker 1: working to right now? Yeah? Not as much. I mean

1274
01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:19,759
Speaker 1: I'm I'm at home. Our office or our warehouse UM

1275
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:23,160
Speaker 1: is operating like we have a small crew kind of

1276
01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:24,800
Speaker 1: going in and out. We have like a we're like

1277
01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:28,280
Speaker 1: an industrial warehouse section where we do like dismantling computers

1278
01:22:28,280 --> 01:22:31,240
Speaker 1: and stuff. So we have a small crew going in

1279
01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:33,960
Speaker 1: out and if there's pickups. But I work with main

1280
01:22:34,360 --> 01:22:37,000
Speaker 1: mainly the tech companies, and so they're all working from

1281
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:41,080
Speaker 1: home and so there's really not a lot going on UM.

1282
01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:42,680
Speaker 1: To be honest, we had a couple of pickups and

1283
01:22:42,720 --> 01:22:46,080
Speaker 1: a couple a couple of interactions and meetings and stuff

1284
01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:48,599
Speaker 1: like that. But other than that, it's it's been pretty slow, dude.

1285
01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:52,600
Speaker 1: It's it's just tough, you know, so um but you know,

1286
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:55,719
Speaker 1: and my wife works as well, she's in real estate,

1287
01:22:55,760 --> 01:22:58,000
Speaker 1: and that's that's actually still going. But I think I

1288
01:22:58,080 --> 01:22:59,599
Speaker 1: got to see a drop here in the next month

1289
01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:05,720
Speaker 1: or two, so we'll see. Yeah. But yeah, right, well,

01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:15,920
Speaker 1: been thinking about during this whole quarantine. It's just I'm

1294
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:18,360
Speaker 1: so thankful for so much like you, you kind of

1295
01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:20,479
Speaker 1: take for granted what you do on a daily basis,

1296
01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:24,560
Speaker 1: whether it's driving to the store, driving to the restaurant,

1298
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:31,040
Speaker 1: just all that sort of social interactions. Um, you know,

01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:19,559
Speaker 1: because like you ordered a ten pound bag of rice

1355
01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:25,040
Speaker 1: there a month ago. So I did do a few

1356
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:28,240
Speaker 1: things when I started. You know, I'm like a I'm

1357
01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:30,200
Speaker 1: one of those threaks that's always kind of like seeing

1358
01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:32,599
Speaker 1: what's happening on the internet and what are people doing.

1359
01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:35,559
Speaker 1: And I watched I always have watched like a lot

1360
01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:38,720
Speaker 1: of news. I would say probably the worst thing I'm

1361
01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:41,360
Speaker 1: doing is I watched probably ten hours of CNN a day,

1362
01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:47,160
Speaker 1: which is probably bad. Like like when when Chris Cuomo

1363
01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:50,519
Speaker 1: said he had it, it was like a very close

1364
01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:54,120
Speaker 1: cousin telling me they had it like I actually like

1365
01:27:55,040 --> 01:27:59,840
Speaker 1: made a like a noise, like like a family member had,

1366
01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:03,320
Speaker 1: and I have been following him. So I feel very

1367
01:28:03,400 --> 01:28:07,479
Speaker 1: bonded to everyone on CNN right now. But I would

1368
01:28:07,560 --> 01:28:10,799
Speaker 1: say the one thing that I'm probably overdoing is washing

1369
01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:12,840
Speaker 1: my hands. Not that you could do that, but my

1370
01:28:13,040 --> 01:28:23,320
Speaker 1: hands are like bleeding. My knuckles are kind of bleeding,

1371
01:28:23,600 --> 01:28:28,040
Speaker 1: and like there's that like every time I touch a

1372
01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:29,840
Speaker 1: door handle, I keep feeling like I need to wash

1373
01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:31,519
Speaker 1: my hands, even though my mom. I'm up in the

1374
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:34,400
Speaker 1: day area and my mom is here and she lives

1375
01:28:34,439 --> 01:28:36,840
Speaker 1: like two doors down. I'm very similar to Gavitt. I

1376
01:28:36,880 --> 01:28:38,360
Speaker 1: don't know if he told you guys that he lives

1377
01:28:38,439 --> 01:28:42,040
Speaker 1: very close to his dad. So my mom, he's saying

1378
01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:44,439
Speaker 1: to me, like, you're you're the only one touching the

1379
01:28:44,520 --> 01:28:47,000
Speaker 1: door handles, so like you don't need to, Like I

1380
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:50,160
Speaker 1: feel like I'm contaminating myself sometimes, but I'm trying to

1381
01:28:50,439 --> 01:28:52,920
Speaker 1: be calm. I would say the other thing that I

1382
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 1: have really let go is my hair. I maybe we'll

1383
01:28:56,320 --> 01:28:58,320
Speaker 1: try and take a picture for you guys, because you

1384
01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:01,000
Speaker 1: know I get my hair colored every week. Okay, So

1385
01:29:01,280 --> 01:29:08,240
Speaker 1: my hair is gray. Oh, I have one other good one.

1386
01:29:08,360 --> 01:29:12,160
Speaker 1: So my boyfriend was here chill. He had been coming over.

1387
01:29:12,240 --> 01:29:15,559
Speaker 1: But now we're doing three weeks apart because they said

1388
01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:18,560
Speaker 1: these are the two the next two ish weeks, you

1389
01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:21,200
Speaker 1: really need to like lock it down. So we're doing

1390
01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:24,040
Speaker 1: three weeks apart. So I did his laundry and I

1391
01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:27,000
Speaker 1: put his like sweats and shirt and sweatshirt. But he

1392
01:29:27,200 --> 01:29:29,439
Speaker 1: left a pair of socks. So I will admit I've

1393
01:29:29,479 --> 01:29:34,439
Speaker 1: been sleeping with the socks, like on the pillow next

1394
01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:38,679
Speaker 1: to you, or you know, like on the hello next

1395
01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:42,679
Speaker 1: to me. There's nothing wrong with that, Brooks will talk later.

1396
01:29:45,840 --> 01:29:48,000
Speaker 1: I'm try to think. I mean, other than that, I

1397
01:29:48,160 --> 01:29:51,639
Speaker 1: just do like a lot of whiting and like I'm

1398
01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:53,720
Speaker 1: not hoarding. I want everyone to know, like I'm I'm

1399
01:29:53,800 --> 01:29:56,240
Speaker 1: like really good about that. I'm not doing any of

1400
01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:59,080
Speaker 1: that weird stuff. Like I definitely have food for the

1401
01:29:59,160 --> 01:30:01,040
Speaker 1: next two weeks. I don't have to go to the store.

1402
01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:05,639
Speaker 1: Um oh, I know what I did too. By a miracle,

1403
01:30:05,760 --> 01:30:07,760
Speaker 1: I had some Nords from Bucks. Do you know what

1404
01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:11,919
Speaker 1: that is? So it's like when you shop at Nordstrom,

1405
01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:14,000
Speaker 1: when you shop at a certain amount, you get like

1406
01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:17,519
Speaker 1: three Nords from money when you use your Nords from card.

1407
01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:20,479
Speaker 1: So I did have some Nords from Bucks saved up,

1408
01:30:20,840 --> 01:30:23,439
Speaker 1: so I am shopping like that makes me feel kind

1409
01:30:23,479 --> 01:30:25,640
Speaker 1: of good. So I shop at Nordstrom and use my

1410
01:30:25,720 --> 01:30:31,200
Speaker 1: Nords from Bucks like I've been doing. I'm pretty good.

1411
01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:36,599
Speaker 1: I mean I do fifteen feet of distance. I will

1412
01:30:36,680 --> 01:30:39,200
Speaker 1: say that I do fifteen feet of distance, and I

1413
01:30:39,240 --> 01:30:41,080
Speaker 1: did feel bad. I was in the grocery store and

1414
01:30:41,200 --> 01:30:43,800
Speaker 1: I asked a woman some more distance. I was like,

1415
01:30:43,880 --> 01:30:45,920
Speaker 1: could I have some more distance? And then let me

1416
01:30:45,960 --> 01:30:48,720
Speaker 1: ask you a questions, Amy questions. If you're in an

1417
01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:51,560
Speaker 1: elevator and the door opens and someone wants to get in,

1418
01:30:51,720 --> 01:30:54,160
Speaker 1: what do you do? Well, I don't. I haven't been

1419
01:30:54,160 --> 01:31:01,800
Speaker 1: in an elevator since October of twenty eighteen. Yes, in

1420
01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:06,800
Speaker 1: an elevator. If if you were a normal person and

1421
01:31:06,960 --> 01:31:09,599
Speaker 1: you were in an elevator right now and the door

1422
01:31:09,760 --> 01:31:11,880
Speaker 1: open and someone wants to get in, what would you do?

1423
01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:17,800
Speaker 1: I don't think I would do it. I don't what

1424
01:31:18,120 --> 01:31:20,400
Speaker 1: did your building have an elevator? What are you doing

1425
01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:27,719
Speaker 1: from the front of it and say I'll send it back. Yeah,

1426
01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:30,400
Speaker 1: I would probably do the same, And mostly the reason

1427
01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:32,679
Speaker 1: would be because I want to keep my mom safe

1428
01:31:32,720 --> 01:31:35,560
Speaker 1: and you want to keep your dad safe, and we're like,

1429
01:31:36,080 --> 01:31:40,559
Speaker 1: who they have could take care of them? So I agree,

1430
01:31:40,760 --> 01:31:43,240
Speaker 1: and I think that anyone would be totally understanding, Like

1431
01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:45,000
Speaker 1: when I asked the lady at the grocery store for

1432
01:31:45,120 --> 01:31:47,920
Speaker 1: more distance because we were in the check outline the

1433
01:31:47,960 --> 01:31:50,559
Speaker 1: grocery By the way, I don't know if anyone has

1434
01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:52,559
Speaker 1: done this, but like, can we give a shout out

1435
01:31:52,600 --> 01:31:55,480
Speaker 1: to the people at the grocery store? And like the CDs,

1436
01:31:55,800 --> 01:31:59,160
Speaker 1: I think about that all the time, like because I

1437
01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:01,200
Speaker 1: don't like going the grocery store right now, and I'm

1438
01:32:01,200 --> 01:32:03,720
Speaker 1: only there with like what like thirty people. They have

1439
01:32:03,840 --> 01:32:05,880
Speaker 1: to be there all day with all the people, so

1440
01:32:06,080 --> 01:32:09,519
Speaker 1: I just think those people. I mean, obviously doctor's, nurses, police,

1441
01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:11,960
Speaker 1: fire all of it, but those grocery store people and

1442
01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:15,439
Speaker 1: the people driving the trucks and like the people delivering

1443
01:32:15,520 --> 01:32:20,560
Speaker 1: my packages. It's like, God bless, I am quarantining my packages,

1444
01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:22,519
Speaker 1: which I'm waiting for some expert to tell me to

1445
01:32:22,520 --> 01:32:24,920
Speaker 1: stop doing that, but I keep them for like a

1446
01:32:25,040 --> 01:32:28,479
Speaker 1: day or two outside. I got a question, are they giving? Uh?

1447
01:32:29,080 --> 01:32:34,439
Speaker 1: Has anyone decided to give grocery store workers pharmacy workers.

1448
01:32:34,920 --> 01:32:37,080
Speaker 1: Are they giving them hazard ta yet at least for

1449
01:32:37,160 --> 01:32:41,560
Speaker 1: the interim? I mean, let's hope. I don't know, Like

1450
01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:45,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, and I think that they be rageous

1451
01:32:45,320 --> 01:32:47,200
Speaker 1: for that to happen, you know what I mean, because

1452
01:32:47,600 --> 01:32:51,519
Speaker 1: they think that. I think the insta cart people were

1453
01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:56,240
Speaker 1: asking for stuff too. Um yeah, because like those people

1454
01:32:56,320 --> 01:33:01,640
Speaker 1: are really saving everyone else by going and doing the

1455
01:33:01,720 --> 01:33:04,160
Speaker 1: shopping and delivering the packages. I am getting in a

1456
01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:08,120
Speaker 1: crazy amount of packages. It's not gonna lie how many

1457
01:33:08,520 --> 01:33:13,800
Speaker 1: because m cannaday, No, that sounds excessive, But that's not

1458
01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:18,040
Speaker 1: only my fault because I did order like some some

1459
01:33:18,280 --> 01:33:22,720
Speaker 1: canned goods from Target, but the Target is shipping them

1460
01:33:23,160 --> 01:33:27,639
Speaker 1: quickly and separately, so it's not totally my fault. I'm

1461
01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:30,080
Speaker 1: not being like super nuts with the packages. And like

1462
01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:32,000
Speaker 1: I got lucky and something I wanted I found on

1463
01:33:32,040 --> 01:33:34,599
Speaker 1: the internet and I only got one. So I feel

1464
01:33:34,600 --> 01:33:36,400
Speaker 1: like we all really need to help each other out.

1465
01:33:37,400 --> 01:33:39,120
Speaker 1: My mom is going to try and color my hair

1466
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:42,280
Speaker 1: next week, though, so that is going to be that's

1467
01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:45,000
Speaker 1: gonna be something amy. I might try and give myself

1468
01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:48,720
Speaker 1: a mohawk. A lot of people are a lot of

1469
01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:51,320
Speaker 1: guys are shaving their heads. I've seen that a lot,

1470
01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:57,360
Speaker 1: but I'm not just doing it, mohawk. Has anyone asked

1471
01:33:57,360 --> 01:33:59,519
Speaker 1: you how long that beard is gonna go? I'm not

1472
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:02,799
Speaker 1: a I'm percent on that beard, Brooks. It's like freaking

1473
01:34:02,840 --> 01:34:07,599
Speaker 1: me out a little. Um it's I don't know, I'm

1474
01:34:07,800 --> 01:34:12,120
Speaker 1: it's the longest I've ever had the beard in my life. Yeah.

1475
01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:14,880
Speaker 1: Somedays I'm like, I'm gonna shave it. The other days like,

1476
01:34:15,120 --> 01:34:16,680
Speaker 1: I don't give a damn. I'm up here in the

1477
01:34:16,760 --> 01:34:18,760
Speaker 1: woods in Idaho. I spend all day in the woods

1478
01:34:18,840 --> 01:34:20,760
Speaker 1: with my dog. Why does it matter if I have

1479
01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:22,960
Speaker 1: a beard or I don't have a beard? Um? Well,

1480
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:24,719
Speaker 1: if you could grow in the beard a little longer

1481
01:34:25,400 --> 01:34:28,000
Speaker 1: and wear the right clothes, send the picture of us

1482
01:34:28,160 --> 01:34:34,040
Speaker 1: dressed like a gnome under yard. Like my hair, someone

1483
01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:36,400
Speaker 1: told me my hair was looking like Crystal Gale. Do

1484
01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:39,559
Speaker 1: you guys know who Crystal Gale is? No? Oh, yeah,

1485
01:34:39,560 --> 01:34:43,920
Speaker 1: I remember Crystal when I was like five. Yeah, she's

1486
01:34:43,960 --> 01:34:45,880
Speaker 1: really cute. But she has a really really long hair,

1487
01:34:45,920 --> 01:34:47,840
Speaker 1: and my hair probably needs to cut. My mom may

1488
01:34:47,960 --> 01:34:52,240
Speaker 1: try that too, but lord knows, you don't know. I

1489
01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:55,960
Speaker 1: know you were talking about music. I say, make the music.

1490
01:34:56,040 --> 01:35:02,519
Speaker 1: Have you heard Thomas Rescue song? No, listen to it.

1491
01:35:02,840 --> 01:35:05,760
Speaker 1: It's so good and it's like you got a year ago,

1492
01:35:06,520 --> 01:35:08,840
Speaker 1: but it's perfect for right now. So I say, like,

1493
01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:11,200
Speaker 1: make your songs. Oh wait, can we talk about your

1494
01:35:11,280 --> 01:35:16,439
Speaker 1: Kenny Roger special? That's up to you. I want to

1495
01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:19,840
Speaker 1: talk about it, so okay, I will say that was

1496
01:35:19,960 --> 01:35:22,160
Speaker 1: so sad that we lost Kenny Rogers, and I feel

1497
01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:24,920
Speaker 1: like it got a little lost in all this, which

1498
01:35:25,280 --> 01:35:30,519
Speaker 1: I'm sure everybody understands. But what saw Kenny Rogers passed away?

1499
01:35:30,920 --> 01:35:33,680
Speaker 1: And there's a tribute on the eighth on CMT, and

1500
01:35:33,720 --> 01:35:35,639
Speaker 1: I'm sure it's like everyone's being from their living room

1501
01:35:35,680 --> 01:35:39,040
Speaker 1: and you're on it. What song are you doing? Oh?

1502
01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:44,000
