Speaker 1: you think we keep running the same thing every day?
Speaker 2: You know? I'm okay. I like this, Listen.
Speaker 5: I would have loved being in the military because, you
Speaker 5: know what, you don't have to think about we are
Speaker 5: aware every day.
Speaker 3: That's why I like my kids went to Catholic school
Speaker 3: for high school, and I was like, you know what,
Speaker 3: this makes it so much easier, not having to worry
Speaker 3: every single day what you have to put on, you
Speaker 3: have to put on, what everyone puts on. Really, Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's time to change your shirt because I've been noticing
Speaker 3: your car.
Speaker 6: I was going to say this, you've been coughing a
Speaker 6: lot this morning.
Speaker 2: I'm not sick.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's a chesty coughs.
Speaker 2: I heard it.
Speaker 3: I watch it all.
Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, GM, I'll keep an eye. I'll keep
Speaker 6: an eye on Nate as the executive producer. Can I
Speaker 6: implore you to implement a dress code?
Speaker 2: You know we get that one time ball gowns.
Speaker 3: On Tuesday?
Speaker 5: We actually did, didn't we do dress up like it's
Speaker 5: a business office.
Speaker 2: One day we did it and Alas goes, I'm not
Speaker 2: doing it.
Speaker 6: No, I was singing like we could all have matching
Speaker 6: like Elvis Durant in the Morning Show, hoodies and sweatpants.
Speaker 6: I love that day and on brand. I feel like
Speaker 6: it would be really.
Speaker 4: Good for us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Andrew, I think we have some leftover credit somewhere.
Speaker 2: Maybe we can make a uniform great.
Speaker 6: And you know what we do want? We could all
Speaker 6: pick like a different color than with the color schemes.
Speaker 6: Someone got black, someone have white, pink. We could do this.
Speaker 2: Let's do it.
Speaker 4: I'm a fan like l It's a little culty, but
Speaker 4: I like it.
Speaker 6: Slowly moving.
Speaker 2: The first step. Okay, So what question do you have
Speaker 2: for us to argue about today?
Speaker 4: Okay? I have some good ones. I got to pick
Speaker 4: which one I want. Okay, I'm gonna go with this one.
Speaker 4: What's a cultural rule that you decided doesn't apply to
Speaker 4: you anymore? And I know mine? And I again, yeah, okay,
Speaker 4: I and I've said this before. Do not go to
Speaker 4: another country and try and speak with an accent. Do
Speaker 4: not try and learn the words, do not try and
Speaker 4: assimilate you are.
Speaker 6: Like you're a monster.
Speaker 4: When people are in New York and they ask me
Speaker 4: for directions, just ask me where it is. I'm not
Speaker 4: judging you for not being able to assimilate. I think
Speaker 4: there is a disrespectful way to do it, and I
Speaker 4: am not being disrespectful. But I also know that if
Speaker 4: I'm going to Japan, I can't speak Japanese. If I
Speaker 4: when I was just in Greece, I can't speak Greek,
Speaker 4: I will never know Greek. So I will just exactly so,
Speaker 4: I will just try my best and be very nice
Speaker 4: and respectful, the same way that if they.
Speaker 6: Were New York not trying it all.
Speaker 4: Andrew okay, but me going yeas, No, they don't know.
Speaker 3: But if that's amount of times they think like you
Speaker 3: are like You're like, you're not.
Speaker 6: French, don't I have?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 6: But on French specifically, so before I travel to countries,
Speaker 6: I will try to watch a video to just brief me.
Speaker 6: I'm like, what do I need to know about this country?
Speaker 6: And specifically with French people, they said, always make an effort,
Speaker 6: learn a couple words, even if you don't say it correctly.
Speaker 6: Make an effort, Because how do we feel as Americans
Speaker 6: when someone comes up to you, and they just start
Speaker 6: speaking a different language. You're like, why would I know
Speaker 6: that that's weird to do so, to not even try
Speaker 6: in another country?
Speaker 4: Andrew, what, I agree. I don't think there's much that
Speaker 4: I'm doing that's gonna make it better. I don't speak
Speaker 4: the language. I'm gonna look and be very nice and kind.
Speaker 7: Thank you, please, hello, And I also know what you're saying,
Speaker 7: so I will always learn the phrase, hey, hello, I don't.
Speaker 5: Speak your language, do you speaking so? In France it
Speaker 5: would be junipa francie, I don't speak French. Do you
Speaker 5: speak English? And then they will always say yes, And
Speaker 5: then I'm fine, yeah, but I do make an effort
Speaker 5: one praise.
Speaker 4: Just try again, A nice little smile and a nod
Speaker 4: and a point pointing works.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, you're an ugly American that gives us
Speaker 6: all a bad names.
Speaker 4: Again when they're here. I don't judge anybody who's a tourist.
Speaker 4: It's very simple. And then you just keep going along
Speaker 4: your way, okay.
Speaker 6: But if someone comes up to you and starts speaking
Speaker 6: to you in Japanese, you're gonna look at them like, what,
Speaker 6: I don't even know what you're saying?
Speaker 4: Well, when you're in Japan. Fancy you're to help.
Speaker 6: I'm from Japan. I don't speak English. Do you speak Japanese?
Speaker 6: You'd be like, oh no.
Speaker 4: Or I pull my little Google translator and say, speak.
Speaker 2: Into this to Japan. Did you learn any Japanese?
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 2: Who you?
Speaker 4: So no, I know some of the basics, but a
Speaker 4: lot of them sound like American words, like fork is
Speaker 4: just folk and spoon is just.
Speaker 3: They say in New York.
Speaker 4: So yeah, that's those are some of the words I know. Also,
Speaker 4: arigato goze mas that's like thank you so very much.
Speaker 4: So I know that one.
Speaker 6: I think that's important. I think it's it's important to
Speaker 6: just make a little effort, just a little eff I.
Speaker 2: Agree with you for the most part.
Speaker 4: You're not blending in.
Speaker 6: But don't but don't like, you know, be disrespectful about it.
Speaker 1: Right, I'm probably not going to ever bow, you know.
Speaker 4: Wait, so that's the cultural role that you don't want
Speaker 4: to do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, I refuse to bow in Japan.
Speaker 4: But that's like the version of a handshake. That's like
Speaker 4: the version of a handshake.
Speaker 1: So why can't I just hands?
Speaker 4: So this is where I think we're different. I just
Speaker 4: want to make that very clear. I will.
Speaker 2: Bow. I don't misinterpreting your question. What was your question?
Speaker 4: It's what's a culturally a cultural rule you decided doesn't
Speaker 4: apply to you.
Speaker 1: Bowing because they could always just say, oh, like stupid
Speaker 1: American doesn't know any better. I feel weird bowing.
Speaker 6: You feel better with them being like stupid American? Doesn't
Speaker 6: you want about like, actually I want to respect the
Speaker 6: I want to respect that.
Speaker 4: Okay, So then let's am I supposed to eat.
Speaker 2: With my hands?
Speaker 1: Then, because you're supposed to eat with your hands, I
Speaker 1: want to I want to use chopsticks.
Speaker 6: I think in Japan they use chopsticks.
Speaker 2: My off. Nope, they eat sushi with their hands. Who cares?
Speaker 6: Didn't do that?
Speaker 4: I gotta tell you a lot of chopsticks? Was there twice?
Speaker 2: A third time?
Speaker 4: A lot of chopsticky sticks?
Speaker 2: I got one. I got one.
Speaker 3: So if I was ever to meet the royal family,
Speaker 3: I know you're not supposed to like touch them with
Speaker 3: their hands, I would have a very hard time without
Speaker 3: not hugging them. I would be I'm going for the
Speaker 3: immediately we got.
Speaker 2: To change with the times. They got these rules for
Speaker 2: like three hundred.
Speaker 3: Pretty sure, right, when the queen was alive, You're not.
Speaker 3: I don't think you were supposed to touch her ever alive.
Speaker 2: The king.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but i'd be like, hey, I'll tell you what
Speaker 1: while we're on the topic. And I'm when I was
Speaker 1: in Ireland, I had, you know, I went to the
Speaker 1: castle thing where they where the blonding stone is and
Speaker 1: I went right up to it and I didn't kiss it.
Speaker 1: I said, I'm not kissing this damn thing because it's
Speaker 1: a million lips have been on it, so I bypassed it.
Speaker 1: I said, I made my journey all the way to
Speaker 1: the top.
Speaker 6: And I'm like, I heard you're not supposed to kiss
Speaker 6: the lorney stone because locals pe on it every wreck.
Speaker 5: But everybody's kissing it. Andrew and I went the guys
Speaker 5: scrub it in between.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Oh I'm like.
Speaker 1: Ah, that's okay, I'm not kissing this thing.
Speaker 4: But we also went like post COVID, so it feels
Speaker 4: like maybe some new rules were implemented. She's thinking out
Speaker 4: loud here.
Speaker 2: Interesting, what's your question again?
Speaker 4: What's a cultural rule you decided doesn't apply to you anymore?
Speaker 2: No, picking, I don't care. I have a bat in
Speaker 2: the cave. I'm going in there.
Speaker 5: I'm why should I be uncomfortable because I don't want
