I haven't been on 16 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,319 Speaker 2: Twitter in such a long time except for like when 17 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 2: something happens and I need to get on two or 18 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 2: just take it the quick the quick take on what 19 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: has occurred. 20 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: So I'm a lazy tweeter and that, like I typically 21 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,839 Speaker 1: if I do something on Instagram, I'm like, go ahead 22 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: and post it on Twitter too. Boo. That's how our 23 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: tower tweeted. Someone was like, when someone hits me on 24 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: Twitter and they say something like oh, good grats or whatever, 25 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, for what, oh that lazy tweet via Instagram. Oh, 26 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: I will say Superman. The other day he got bad service. So, 27 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: you know we talked about like, I don't know, a 28 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: year or so ago, you know how he had the annurism surgeries, right, 29 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: and so like at once a year, you know, he 30 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: goes to go get a check up. So they sent 31 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: him to some MRIs place where so his doctor can 32 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 1: get the results or whatever. So I guess they had 33 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: him waiting for an hour and he was like why. 34 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: They're like, oh, the. 35 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: Other MRIs are a little bit easier, so they're taking 36 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: them first. He was like, the why not just put 37 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: me at ten o'clock instead of having me come at 38 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: nine and wait for an hour. So they were giving 39 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: him all this back and forth, and so he finally 40 00:01:57,840 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: was like, you know, I'm just gonna leave, and they 41 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: were like no, no, no, get you now, because of course 42 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: you know they want and the money from the insurance. 43 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: So he was like, you know, that's crazy. You shouldn't 44 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: have someone come in like that, set an appointment and 45 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: make them wait just because other people have easier exams. 46 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: And they were just complaining. He's like, you know what 47 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: at first, they were you know, they were rude at first, 48 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: and he said, you know what, I'm just gonna get 49 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: my wife to tweet about it. And I was like, 50 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: cause I told him once that like somebody had done 51 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: something to me. I was like, you know, I'm gonna 52 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: tweet about it and so and then they gave me 53 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 1: a refund or whatever. So he was like, I'm just 54 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: gonna get my wife' to tweet about it. And they 55 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: were like no. I'm like, some man, do we even 56 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: know how Twitter works? He doesn't, but he was like, 57 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I see the fear of people's 58 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 1: eyes when you say it. So I used it. He's like, tifanty. 59 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: They were so apologetic, like no, sir was so sorry. 60 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: He said, you don't worry about it. I'm gonna tweet 61 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: and I'm like that. He was like, wait, how do 62 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: how does Twitter work? I like, go sit down in 63 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: the corner somewhere. Oh, Twitter saving people's lives every day. 64 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: I used to think that like waiting forty five minutes 65 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 2: to an hour the doctor was like a normal experience. 66 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: But then I realized you can just a different doctor, 67 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: and some doctors are just really like some offices are 68 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 2: just really dysfunctional, and they just get backed up and 69 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: trying to get an appointment in New York City. Like 70 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,079 Speaker 2: I it's it's if you need to go see a 71 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: specialist and you're nothing is broken and you're not bleeding, 72 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 2: like you're gonna be waiting at least a month to 73 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: go see New York It's ridiculous, rediculous. And I was 74 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 2: gonna say, MRIs are one of those things where it 75 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 2: really matters. I mean not just like where you get 76 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 2: the best service, but like those are one of those 77 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: health services that if you go down the block, it 78 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 2: can be five hundred bucks, if you go next door, 79 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 2: it can be two thousand dollars. I don't and there's 80 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: like these these like these these types of services in 81 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: the healthcare industry that there's just no rhyme or reason 82 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: and they just charge whatever the hell they want for 83 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: the same thing. 84 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: Yep. And so thankfully he's got really great insurance. So 85 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: he that's why they were like, no, don't be mad, 86 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: don't leave, don't not come back, because they know that 87 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: his insurance is going to pay. 88 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: You know. 89 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: He was just like, I just want to get checked 90 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: just to make sure everything is But yeah, it's but 91 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: you're right about waiting for the doctor because I wanted 92 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: to go see like a fertility specialis because you know, 93 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: Superman and I try to have this baby. And they 94 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: were like, yeah, we'll see you in a month.

And 98 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, never mind, I'll be back a month. 99 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: You know, it's the norm. And so now that I've 100 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: got that good insurance, I mean, I guess I have 101 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: to wait, and you know, so I'll give you. 102 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: All just My trick is always just to call and 103 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 2: ask for cancelations, and they usually I have luck that way. Okay, 104 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 2: oh that's a good I always cancel. You know. People 105 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 2: get a little too ambitious with their health planning. Yeah, 106 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 2: and then don't show up. 107 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: I never thought about that. Well, let's up. It's coming 108 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: up in like a week or so, my first one, 109 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: so I said, we'll see. 110 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: Hey, it's not too rarely to remind people about open enrollment. 111 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: Most people like at their jobs. Open enrollment starts in 112 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: the fall, I think, and usually have until like mid November. 113 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 2: Or late November to finish your elections. 114 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, you're right, it is about opening Roman time. 115 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: This is the time. This is when I get to 116 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 2: make up for that mistake we made after we got married, 117 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 2: where we missed the window to add me to my husband. 118 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 2: That's right, healthcare plan. I think what was thirty day 119 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: window or sixty day window? Anyway, we totally missed it. Whoops. 120 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 2: So we had to wait for open enrollment to make 121 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: any changes. 122 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: But uh, that's right, that's the one thing we did. Right. 123 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: Was like because honestly, I kept I was sweating it. 124 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: I was like, so what about that help pan make 125 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: that call? Make that call fun? 126 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're a pay for Obamacare before that, right what? 127 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: And then I it lapsed because I thought that you 128 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: got signed up right away. So I was like, yay, 129 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: cancel everything. So I canceled and they were like, oh, yeah, 130 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: you'll have insurance, but it's going to take thirty days 131 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: to kick in. I was like, oh fake. So of 132 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: course during that lapse, I had to go to the 133 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: doctor like I was. I had like this wicked stomach ache, 134 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: and so I ended up going to the emergency room, 135 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: which I did not want to go but I was like, 136 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: I'll be fine. My mom's a nurse, and she was like, 137 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: are you rasy? So you just rather die? I'm like, 138 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: I have another week before restaurants kick said. She's like, oh, 139 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: so you'll just die here. So I went and it 140 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 1: just turned out. Honestly, I don't know what it is. 141 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: They thought maybe I had like a kidney like stone 142 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: or something like that, but it ended up not being 143 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: anything crazy. I likely ate something. They couldn't really find anything, 144 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: and like, after giving me something to soothe my stomach 145 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: the next day, I was okay, but I'd been suffering 146 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: with it for like the weekend, and I was like, yo, 147 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm dying on the inside. And so 148 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: it ended up being my imagine this. My bill ended 149 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: up being with all of the tests that they ran, 150 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars and then they like whittled it down, 151 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: like with me actually owing about two thousand. But I 152 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 1: was like, are you kidding me? 153 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 2: Oh my god, my heart, I know he said ten dollars. 154 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 1: Yes. I saw the bill and I was like, wait 155 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 1: a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, and they 156 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: were like, but you go ahead, I want to pay 157 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: two thousand. 158 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: That's crazy. Well, I wanted to say one quick thing 159 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: because when you earlier, when you were like, well, you know, 160 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 2: he has that good insurance and it'll cover whatever the 161 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: MRI is, no matter what the cost is. I think 162 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: you don't realize how important it is for these healthcare 163 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 2: services to get their costs in line until you don't 164 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 2: have insurance and you have to pay the sticker price. 165 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 2: Because I think so many of us who are fortunate 166 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 2: enough to have that, you know, insurance that'll cover anything, 167 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 2: like I never thought I never used to think about 168 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: how much anything cost. And I think a lot of 169 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: us were in that who have insurance or like in 170 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 2: that little like naive headspace or whatever. But the crazy 171 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 2: way that health care services are raising in prices, and 172 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,679 Speaker 2: these these pharmaceutical companies and these healthcare these insurance companies 173 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 2: can charge these crazy rate rates is not good for anybody. 174 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 2: It just drives all sorts of healthcare, drives insurance prices higher, 175 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 2: you know, for on our premiums. It makes health care 176 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: more affordable unaffordable if you don't have insurance. It's just 177 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 2: a mess. 178 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: There's like, and it's scary because honestly, there was tests 179 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: that they wanted to run that. I was like, yeah, 180 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: I'm good. And my mom was with me at the 181 00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: hospital and she was like, you know, the nurse at 182 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: her was like, no, run it. I'm looking at her like, ma'am, 183 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: do you have money? Do you have running money? I 184 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: felt like the adult like do you have McDonald's money? 185 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: You know, like when you want McDonald's as a kid, 186 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: And your mom was like, go to home. I was like, 187 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: oh that money, I know. So they're running all these tests, 188 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: I'm telling you I felt I felt worse only because 189 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: like it was like I swear that, like I'm gonna 190 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: have a heart attack in here, because every time they 191 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: had me run something, I was like, oh my gosh, 192 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I'm not gonna be able to afford 193 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: this bill. Oh my gosh. So they like ran every 194 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: little thing and they're like, oh so basically thought it, 195 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,599 Speaker 1: you're fine. Did you eat something? I was like, I 196 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: think I'm gonna throw up. So when I got that, 197 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 1: I know, basically, oh the pep those fifty dollars by 198 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: the way, and so yeah, so no, I totally understand 199 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 1: what it feels like to like not want to actually 200 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: even go get service because you're just like I literally 201 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: can't afford to be well. 202 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, my dad has. My poor dad, it's a miracle. 203 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 2: He's like all in one piece. But because he never 204 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 2: had any insurance, he didn't have insurance until Obamacare, and 205 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 2: he would his teeth were falling. I'm not trying to 206 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 2: put his business out there, but he was like falling apart. 207 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: And so as soon as he got Obamacare, he went 208 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 2: and got you know, he Well, this is part of 209 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 2: the reason why people are saying Obamacare plans are expensive, 210 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: because a lot of people like my father, who went 211 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: from having no insurance to having all the insurance, were 212 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: like walking into doctors like it was supermarket sweeps and 213 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 2: was like give me that, give me that, give me that, 214 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: I'll take it. A gastric bypass surgery, I mean, which 215 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 2: cured his diabetes and like all these great services, but unfortunately, 216 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 2: not as many healthy people were signing up for insurance, 217 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 2: and like that's sort of what's skewing, Like what sort 218 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 2: of had in a lot of places has led to 219 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:47,440 Speaker 2: sort of the you know, quote unquote expensive like Obamacare plans, 220 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 2: because when enough young, healthy people don't sign up, that's 221 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 2: that's what happens. I didn't know that yeah, blame my daddy. 222 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: Blame it on my daddy. So speaking of putting to 223 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: blame on someone, let's talk about forty five. 224 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 2: Can okay, fine, you know, just a. 225 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: Just in the context of Puerto Ricano. 226 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 2: Put Ricoh, yeah, thank God for thank God for well 227 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 2: Miranda who I loved him so much. I have such 228 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 2: an intellectual crush on him, it's not even funny. But uh, yeah, 229 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 2: you brought it up, so you get to you get 230 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 2: this is your moment, shine. 231 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: No, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna say, Puerto rican people, One, 232 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: I know that you are part of the United States 233 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: of America. Even though I think what it was, it 234 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: wasn't there a pole, Like forty seven percent of folks 235 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: did not know that Puerto Rico was part of the 236 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: United States. 237 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: That almost seems low to me. But yeah, definitely, like 238 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 2: a lot of people don't understand where Puerto Ricans in 239 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 2: America makes sense. 240 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: So One, that's the thing, Puerto Rico is part of 241 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: the United States, they're citizens. Two like for the President 242 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: to attack them air of San Juan, Like, I don't 243 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: think I don't even know that she was overly critical. 244 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: Other than hey, we really like some more aiden help. 245 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean like, I don't know how you ask for 246 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: that without saying, hey, we like some more aid and help. 247 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: And then when he came and he was like how 248 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: many people died? Oh, not that many people died. I'm like, 249 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: are you at thing kidding me? And then when he 250 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: threw the paper towel into the crowd, I was like, 251 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: is this real life right now? 252 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 2: But he threw a paper towel into the crowd. I 253 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 2: haven't watched any video of his visit today. 254 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: So honestly, it is sickening. So one, he basically compares 255 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico to Katrina and says, basically, you guys didn't 256 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: suffer as much as they did. So there's a crowd 257 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: of like, you know, Puerto Ricans like watching the press 258 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: conference or whatever, and he throws a paper towel into 259 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: the crowd, like I'm not certain like what that was 260 00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: supposed to do was that here's your aid?

No, it 267 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: was crazy, and I just I'm just gonna leave it 268 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: in a real light because I feel like, oh, I 269 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: just can't, Like whenever I listen to him talk, honestly, 270 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: I really feel my I get anxious, and I'm just like, 271 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: let's not do this. Let's not do this, Let's not 272 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: do this. I can't do it. 273 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 2: Oh well, let's do a little bit. Let's do a 274 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 2: little bit. Because here's what got me in up and 275 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 2: up in arms. And this is the same comment that 276 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 2: Lin Men mel Miranda landed himself on the cover of 277 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 2: the New York Daily News with his response. But Trump tweeted, 278 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: in all his buffoonery, that Puerto Ricans want everyone to 279 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 2: do everything for them, like like they're complaining that they 280 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: aren't getting enough aid and they just want people to 281 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 2: do everything for them. And my immediate reaction is like 282 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 2: like when Lin Manuel, his his reaction was basically like, 283 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 2: you know, you're going straight to hell. It was like 284 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: he just unleash on him. But it is just it's 285 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 2: so in furiating. His response for like multiple reasons because 286 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: I think one of the biggest for me is the 287 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 2: history of old white politicians, Republican politicians, for the most part, 288 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 2: characterizing people in need, Brown people who are in need 289 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 2: as taking advantage of federal services as if they don't 290 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 2: deserve them as much as like other Americans. And that's 291 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 2: what pissed me off is just that's he's so good 292 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 2: at pandering to his base. He knows what to say. 293 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 2: He's like, Oh, I'm going to excuse myself because I'm 294 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: just going to characterize them as these other brown people 295 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 2: on this island over here, you know, for all his 296 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 2: base knows they're probably just you know, Mexicans who can 297 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 2: swim and made it across, you know, like or live 298 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 2: on some island. Like that's what they think. They're so ignorant. 299 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 2: And I just know that by him saying that, he's 300 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 2: just feeding more fuel to that fire, to that prejudice, 301 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 2: and that that for me was like, that was my 302 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: get at That was my like shut down on Trump 303 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,719 Speaker 2: moment for the weekend.

I was 331 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 2: in that camp for a while. But something about yesterday 332 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 2: with Vegas, I don't know, I got so many I 333 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 2: got several texts from friends who were just really shaken 334 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 2: up about it, and and I don't know what it is. 335 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 2: I think for me, you know, there and things that 336 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 2: have happened in New York recently because I live here, 337 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: I feel like you put up a tough front in 338 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 2: New York. You're like, you know, of course we're a 339 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 2: you know, major target, and anything can happen at any moment, 340 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 2: and you just got to like live your life anyway. 341 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 2: But with this the shooting, with all the like the 342 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 2: cars running people over in Europe and other countries, and 343 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 2: we had that maniac and Times Square he ran over 344 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 2: a bunch of people. We had that Chelsea bombing that 345 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 2: was less than a year ago. That was like free 346 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: Blockstrom where I work. And I feel like the tent, 347 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 2: like the rising level of awareness that at any moment 348 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 2: some lunatics it's just so hard to prevent. I mean, 349 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 2: gun control is one thing but one crazy person with 350 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: a bad intention. I mean, like it's like needle in 351 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 2: a haystack. And I think that that feeling of like 352 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 2: not being any control and just that like anxiety is 353 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 2: creeping up on a people, and something about this attack 354 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: just felt like, I don't know, apart from it being 355 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: one of the most brutal in our country's history, felt 356 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 2: it felt especially bad. 357 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: I think, you know what. I what really twisted the 358 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: knife of the attack for me is like the way 359 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: that they are discussing the terrorists, because let's say that 360 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: what it is, because it's just it's so crazy. Oh, 361 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 1: he's a lone wolf. Oh you know, he wasn't acting 362 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: if this had been imagined if he had been Muslim, Oh, 363 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: my goodness, or brown? Like what how they would have 364 00:16:55,800 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: described When I saw that the Washington Post that there 365 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: their title or one of their articles. The headline for 366 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: their article was Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock enjoyed gambling, 367 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: country music, lived a quiet life before massacre. What does 368 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,640 Speaker 1: that mean? Oh? I'm sorry? How nice for him? How 369 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: nice for him that his trivial pastimes are remembered after murdering, 370 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: murdering fifty nine people and injuring hundreds of others. How 371 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: nice that we get to know that he loved country 372 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 1: music and lived a quiet life. Are you kidding? Trayvon 373 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: Martin was a kid and he was a thug, like 374 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: Eric Garner was selling Lucy's and he was a thug. 375 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 1: Like we knew all these We didn't. I didn't know 376 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: about their their past times and what they'd like to 377 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: do when they were hanging out. Why is it that 378 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: this clear murderer and terrorist is given that space of 379 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: normalizing him, you know, like they you when it's anyone else, 380 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: when a brown person is literally criminalized for being murdered. 381 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 1: Sandra Bland, you're digging up. Oh, you know one time 382 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 1: in second grade, san Jo Blaine. You know, she hit 383 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: her friend, so you already knew this was gonna happen. 384 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: So the fact that she got murdered is really kind 385 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 1: of her fault. But this clear murderer, this terrorist is 386 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: given that, you know, like the way he's being described 387 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 1: when they're interviewing his brother, did he have mental illness? 388 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: You didn't ask that of anyone else that was killed 389 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: and murdered, And I'm just like, wow, Honestly, sometimes I'm 390 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: sick of this country, Like this is why that, this 391 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: is why things continue. It's that the I mean, and 392 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 1: I'm not even trying to be polarizing. It just is 393 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,360 Speaker 1: what it is. Is that if he had been anything 394 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: other than a white man, the truth of matter is 395 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: the way that they're discussing him, they would not be 396 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: discussing him in this way. They would not they would 397 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 1: not be giving him all the space and room to 398 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,679 Speaker 1: be human, to be Oh you know, he was just 399 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: he was a troubled man. Oh you think he killed 400 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 1: fifty people. I just like just reading headlines like that 401 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: from semi reputable media outlets just really like boils my 402 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,159 Speaker 1: blood because I'm just like, are you kidding me? He 403 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: liked country music and gambling and lived a quiet life. 404 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: But meanwhile, you call a kid a thug because a 405 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: thug killed him, Like, yeah, It's just I'm over it, honestly. 406 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: I just I see what you're saying. I think I 407 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 2: think one reason they haven't used the word terrorist is 408 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 2: like I and this is, you know, a lot of 409 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 2: what you said about the way that they've characterized people 410 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 2: who've died of color and people who have been killed 411 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 2: who are of color is right. But the thing about 412 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 2: terrorism that I like, I understand why they haven't labeled 413 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 2: him a terrorist, because technically terrorism is when it's politically motivated, 414 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 2: and they have no idea what the hell his motive 415 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 2: was yet, And like, although the Islamic State has claimed him, 416 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 2: they also claim a lot of buffoonery that you know, 417 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: in violence that isn't actually you know, part of their 418 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 2: part of their doing. They haven't found any proof yet 419 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 2: that it was terrorism. I think they're still looking, and you, 420 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 2: I don't know. I kind of want to give them time. 421 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 2: I'm happy that they're not saying, they're not jumping to 422 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 2: a terrorist conclusion now. I do think that he's getting 423 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: a lot more space, and they have been a lot 424 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 2: more hesitant because he is a white man. I totally agree. 425 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 2: I think that if he had been brown, or any 426 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 2: racially ambiguous color, or like had a weird last name, 427 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 2: I think a lot and more. I think the talk 428 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 2: of terrorism would have been much more quick and much 429 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 2: and we would have. 430 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: Cautious exactly they would they would have used no caution 431 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: to call him the terrorists from no Rip because at 432 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: first they were like, do you think it's isis? And 433 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: then when they were like, oh, Okay, no, even though 434 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: iis claim responsibility, you know, because like you said, they 435 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 1: always do. They were like, oh no, because you're right, 436 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: maybe technically he's not considered a terrorist, but I guarantee 437 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: that if he was anything other than a white male, 438 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: they would have used that without any hesitation. And I 439 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: guess that's what it's, whether technical or not, you know 440 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: that it's. 441 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 2: Always things like he was a suspected terrorist or you know, 442 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,479 Speaker 2: at least the question would have come up a lot more. 443 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 2: But you know, we can only assume. I think, but 444 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 2: in terms of like the profile of a mass shooter 445 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 2: in America, he's almost a textbook definition other than the 446 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 2: fact that he's not twenty two years old, he's a 447 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 2: white male and more like, the majority of mass shootings 448 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 2: in America have been caused by white men, like and 449 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 2: people don't want to acknowledge that. So I don't know, 450 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 2: That's what I've been seeing in people at news reports, like, oh, 451 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 2: he doesn't fit the profile, you know of a typical, 452 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 2: you know, a mass shooter. I don't know, a loaner. 453 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 2: It seems like he was a loaner. It seems like 454 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 2: he's a white guy. You know, he had I think 455 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 2: it's his whole. I don't know. I just feel like 456 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 2: we're still trying to figure out who he is. I mean, 457 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 2: I give a lot of credit. One thing happens so fast, 458 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 2: and I do give a lot of credit because I 459 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 2: know how hard people are working to get stories of 460 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 2: the victims. And I today, this is what day three 461 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 2: since the attack? Day no, this is the second full 462 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 2: day scency attack. Today, I saw a lot of stories. 463 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: Maybe it's just because I was choosing to see them. 464 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 2: Of stories of the people who were of the fifty 465 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 2: nine fifty nine, right, something like fifty nine who died, Yeah, 466 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 2: fifty nine starting to come. And I don't know, I've 467 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 2: I'm glad, you know, I at least want to. I'm 468 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 2: glad that they're getting some attention. But I agree it's 469 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 2: really important how they characterize these shooters. And yeah, I 470 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: think your frustration is well placed. Not that you need 471 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: to me to validate you, but I agree, I know. 472 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: But it's just so frustrating because you're just like really like, 473 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: so I can kill someone and be humanized, but I 474 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: could be killed and be demonized, and it's all about 475 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: you know what, I look like I'm over it. That 476 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: should be the way we should close off the the buzzworthy. 477 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 2: Well, I think our hearts go out to the victims. Yes, 478 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 2: in Vegas, people still struggling in Puerto Rico. I don't know, 479 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 2: hug a loved one.

Every day is a gift. 483 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 2: Nothing is for certain, and I don't know our politicians 484 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 2: aren't gonna be protecting us from types of gun violence apparently, 485 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 2: So don't take any day for granted. 486 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: And do something.

Remember when I 517 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 2: took a break from meal prep. I said it was stupid. 518 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 2: I said, I was exhausted. I said it was the worst. 519 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 2: I said, these mommy bloggers have no idea what they're 520 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 2: talking about. I know they didn't come for me. They 521 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 2: I didn't actually call them out, so maybe now they will. 522 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: No. 523 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 2: I remember I gave that boost on like Monday when 524 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 2: we were recording and I actually hadn't had a week 525 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 2: to eat my my my prepped meals. And actually, by 526 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 2: like day three, when I was so relieved to actually 527 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: have food in the fridge for dinner, I was like, 528 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 2: all right, maybe I kind of understand why people do 529 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 2: meal prep because I legitimately I had food to eat 530 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 2: when I was too tired to cook, and I got it. 531 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 2: And I don't know why to. I mean, I just 532 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 2: I think I just had to. Actually I had I 533 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 2: spoke too soon, and I apologize to the meal prep 534 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 2: fans of America. This week I did not do such 535 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 2: an ambitious meal prep. There was no spaghetti, squash and 536 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 2: like thirteen different you know, types of vegetables. I just 537 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 2: baked some salmon and I just have it for dinner. 538 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 2: You know, it's just very simple. So I simplified and 539 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 2: it's going much better. But I'm still eating out for lunch. 540 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 2: I'm treating my I'm letting myself eat out for lunch. 541 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 2: I'm playing, I'm paying more attention to what I'm eating 542 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 2: for dinner, like at home, because I didn't get home 543 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 2: so late. 544 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 1: So I think that's good. So I'm glad because you're 545 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: right mill purpose. I mean it could be overwhelming sometimes 546 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: because you're right, You're like wall, I have to chop 547 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: and skip and and you know, but more and more 548 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: now that I'm which, I like this new term a 549 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: vanity vegan, and I accepted. I embrace it. Wait what 550 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm a vanity vegan? That's what someone called me. I 551 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,679 Speaker 1: was like, girl, you not. You won't say nothing, but 552 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: where are you here? I am I feeling what is that 553 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: vanity vegan? So most vegans from like doing a little research, 554 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: research meeting, Like I'm part of one Facebook group, so 555 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: whatever that vegans, I guess to be a true vegan, 556 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: you're doing it for the animals and like, yeah, you're 557 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: like the health is secondary. It's like, no, I want 558 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: to save the animals. And although I do like animals, 559 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying that I don't want the animals 560 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: to be healthy. I do. My primary reason for being 561 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: vegan is one to be snatched, two to be healthier. 562 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: Three you know, hey, yes, I would like the animals 563 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 1: not to have a terrible life. But I'm not gonna lie. 564 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,479 Speaker 1: I'm honest here snatchness is eye on the list. So 565 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 1: someone was like, girl, you're a vanity vegan. I said, 566 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: I will take it. So I'm a vanity vegan. And 567 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: so meal prep is definitely helpful because I can't, like, 568 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: if I don't honestly, I go down near hungry at 569 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: night or I have to eat like a cereal with 570 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: with almond milk. So if I don't like, kind of 571 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: like decide, like, you know, Tiffany, let's chop up. Like 572 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: I've had cauliflower rice for the first time, but I 573 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: had to chop that up. But it was actually really good. 574 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: But you know, I have to plan in advance. 575 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 2: Pro tip Trader Joe sells it. 576 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: You know, the two who shopwrite tells it too. 577 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 2: Look at that mm hm. 578 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: So I tried it and I actually really liked it. 579 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: I made myself this like Santa fe bol, which is 580 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: like typically that would be like rice, and it would 581 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: be like all these kind of like quote unquote air 582 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: quotes Mexican like like beans and and like tomatoes and 583 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: guaqu and sour cream all that kind of stuff and cheese. 584 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: So I did. I did with colidflower rice and I 585 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: put beans and corn and no cheese obviously, no sour cream, 586 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: but guac and what else did I have on it? 587 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: It was really good, honestly, so it was like a 588 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: Santa fe bol without any dairy or any meat. Basically, 589 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: it was like a bowl of veggies. And it was 590 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,719 Speaker 1: so delicious, honestly, so delicious. It's one of my new 591 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: favorite warm dishes where it's basically a bowl of vegetables, 592 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: but it doesn't kind of taste like it. It tastes 593 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: like you might be having, like, you know, a rice 594 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: and beans bowl, but you're really not. You're just eating vegetables. 595 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: That sounds taste so love It was, yes, oh yes, 596 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 1: Squawka's best. So here's my I'm not gonna boost. I've 597 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 1: been boosting lately, which is good, but I'm going to break. 598 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: And it's a little light hearted break, but I'm sick 599 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: of it. So here's what I'm sick of. I'm sick 600 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: of everyone pumpkin spicing every dagon thing. When I went 601 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: to the supermarket and I saw they had cheerios pumpkin 602 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: spice cheerios, I said, I've added I've had a mouth. 603 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: I get it, it's fall. I think, what did pumpkin 604 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: spice start? Did it start with with the latte at Starbucks? 605 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: Is that who started this whole trend of pumpkin spicing thing? 606 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 2: I mean, lord knows Yankee Candles probably had a pumpkin 607 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: spice candle for decades. But yes, I think Starbucks the 608 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 2: flavoring of pumpkin spice. We can lame that on Starbucks 609 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 2: and basic pitches. 610 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: Yes, and I'm sick of it. I've actually found like 611 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: a bunch of hilarious means like tam PACs pumpkin spice. 612 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: They have pumpkin spice xanax. 613 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: I'm so so excited that you broke on this. Actually 614 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 2: you kind of stole my break for next week, but 615 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna let you have it because because I had 616 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 2: the exact same thought. Me and my team at Magnified 617 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 2: Money and earlier this month, we sent out our reporter, 618 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 2: Brittany shout out to Brittany to five to seven different 619 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 2: grocery stores, and we had her look at two hundred 620 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 2: different products, the pumpkin spice version and the regular version, 621 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 2: and we calculated how much retailers are charging for pumpkin 622 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 2: spice taxes, That's what I'm calling it. So that's like 623 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 2: the up charge that they put on products when they're 624 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 2: pumpkin spice. Yes, guess this is like a this is 625 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 2: a sneak peak because we have not released this, we 626 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 2: have not released the results of the study yet. And 627 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: I'm probably gonna be special because we're supposed to be 628 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 2: it's supposed to be under embargo. But whatever, you're gonna 629 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 2: get a little taste. So here's the thing, Like, the 630 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 2: worst offender for pumpkin spice taxes was Trader Joe's, Like, 631 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 2: hands down, my baby Trader JOm my baby Trader Joe's. 632 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 2: Just for an example, here's one of the most infuriating 633 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 2: things because not only are some businesses charging more for 634 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 2: pumpkin spice products, they're giving you less of the products 635 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 2: and they have the audacity to charge more for it. 636 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 2: So have you ever heard of so you just said 637 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 2: pumpkin spice cereal?

So this reader, this listener anyway, 741 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 2: messaged us and she says I had an apartment in 742 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 2: my name. I think she wants to remain anonymous, so 743 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 2: I won't reveal her name. So I had an apartment 744 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 2: in my name for a relative. This was before I 745 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 2: got credit smart. They moved out of the apartment and 746 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,840 Speaker 2: broke the lease. I didn't know they moved out, and 747 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 2: they didn't let me know. A few months later, I 748 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 2: got a credit collection letter in the mail. Furious, but 749 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 2: I paid it off in full. Later I found out 750 00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 2: that there was a judgment filed with the county courts 751 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 2: when I tried to get an apartment myself. A few 752 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 2: years later, I was told I could have the judgment 753 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 2: lifted by reporting by the credit reporting company, and recently 754 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 2: they did submit an update to the courts. However, the 755 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 2: update just said it was dismissed without prejudice, which I 756 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 2: later found out means that they can actually reopen the 757 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 2: case if they wanted to. It should have been filed 758 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 2: as dismissed with prejudice, meaning the case is closed and 759 00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 2: the balance is paid in full. Do you have any 760 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 2: suggestions on how to resolve this and have it removed 761 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 2: from my credit report? 762 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: Well, one, she's right, because I did my googles as 763 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: far as it's like the difference which you dismissed without 764 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: dismissed with prejudice, but what my Google's also revealed to me? 765 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 1: And I asked like a quick like one of my 766 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: friends who's a lawyer. We were just like Facebook chatting, 767 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: so I was asking her. She said that typically when 768 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: something is dismissed without prejudice, it means that they can 769 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 1: refile once, but there's a statute of limitations, meaning like 770 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 1: it has to be filed within a certain time period. 771 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,959 Speaker 1: So I if you can find out in your state, 772 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: like you know, do it like a Google search, because 773 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: even though it was dismissed without prejudice. If that statute, 774 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: if it's six months, if it's a year, whatever, if 775 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: that time has passed, you don't have to worry about 776 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: them trying to come back and get money from you. 777 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: But I can't understand your nervousness. My assumption is that 778 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: you're nervous that they might come back and be like, side, 779 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: we want our money. Even though you paid so one, 780 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 1: you know, it might not if it was a year 781 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 1: ago or whatever, and you're like, oh, it's past the statute. 782 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: They even though it was dismissed without prejudice, they can't 783 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 1: come back because that time has expired. Then I wouldn't 784 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: worry about that if the time has expired, unless that 785 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: wording is keeping you from getting an apartment. But if 786 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 1: it's still within that time, I would think that you 787 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: would go back to the to the credit company right 788 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: and say, hey, why is it like this? Or go 789 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: back to the court system and say why is this? 790 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 1: Why is it still kind of like pending and open 791 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: you know, who do I need to speak to in 792 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:24,320 Speaker 1: order to get that fixed? 793 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 2: Yeah? Or ask if they can put a note even 794 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 2: if they have to keep the with prejudice there with prejudice, 795 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 2: but balance paid in full. My only concern is I 796 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 2: don't know that she'll ever get it off her credit report. 797 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 2: I mean, it's legitimate, you know you were, your name 798 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 2: was on the apartment. It's it's your credit unfortunately, I think, 799 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 2: and she says, it's been a few years later, so 800 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 2: that might mean that you have a few more years 801 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 2: of this being on your credit report. So unfortunately, there's 802 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 2: probably not a way for you to get it off 803 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 2: your credit report. But maybe there's a way for them 804 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 2: to at least note on their balance paid in full, 805 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 2: so that the next time you apply for an apartment 806 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 2: you can at least you can you can defend yourself 807 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 2: and say, well, I paid it in full and try to, 808 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,839 Speaker 2: you know, explain yourself to whoever's doing the background check. Yeah, 809 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 2: my good friend actually was just searching for an apartment 810 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,480 Speaker 2: in New York and she this might be a case 811 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 2: where someone has a similar name to her, and I 812 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 2: wonder if this has happened to anyone else. But she 813 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 2: apparently these people who like own this apartment are really 814 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 2: sticklers for background checks, and they did this crazy check 815 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 2: and it turns out like she found or they said 816 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 2: that she had a similar a similar mark or like 817 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 2: a judgment in like a county back in Georgia where 818 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 2: she's from from over ten years ago, from missing a 819 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 2: bunch of rent payments and it wasn't on her credit report, 820 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 2: but they had filed the claim in court apparently with 821 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 2: the county, and this had come up in a background 822 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 2: check for an apartment all these years later and it 823 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 2: wasn't her and she was sort of she had to 824 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 2: move on to a different apartment because she tried calling 825 00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 2: the county, she tried to call with the court. She 826 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 2: called all these people to try and figure out and 827 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 2: even though the core, the county, whoever she called, said 828 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,879 Speaker 2: they couldn't find the same record that this background check found. Okay, 829 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,279 Speaker 2: there really wasn't anything she could do and it wasn't 830 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,919 Speaker 2: on her credit report. It was just stopping her from 831 00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 2: getting an apartment, which sucked. All she could do is just, 832 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 2: you know, give up on that apartment and try to 833 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 2: find another one where they weren't going to do such 834 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,480 Speaker 2: a crazy I don't know background check. 835 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: Oh no, it is weird. So you know, that brought 836 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: up reminded me. Remember I talked about last week, how 837 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 1: for an order for Superman and I to close on 838 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 1: the house, we have to do the title search, and 839 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,279 Speaker 1: it pulled up some old ticket or whatever he had 840 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: for one hundred something dollars, right, So it turns out 841 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 1: because I was like, wait, So I was asking him, 842 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 1: like it seems weird that, like, why would we have 843 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: to pay this in order to move forward? We don't 844 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: so that he can leave that hundred and something thousand 845 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: that hundred Oh what if it was one hundred something thousand, 846 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: forget it. I'd be like, boy, I'm out, I'm out, 847 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: or your neighbor's office. But for that hundred and it 848 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: was like one hundred and eight dollars, So that it's 849 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 1: not that he had to pay it because we're buying 850 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: the house cash. But what happens is if we were 851 00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 1: getting a mortgage, the mortgage company may not give us 852 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 1: the mortgage because to them that because he owed and 853 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: he'd be an owner of the house, that would be 854 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 1: a lean against the property that would have to be 855 00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 1: satisfied if we decide to sell it, you see what 856 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:26,279 Speaker 1: I mean? And so I said, oh, so, I mean 857 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:27,759 Speaker 1: we're going to pay it because you know, like why 858 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,920 Speaker 1: have that sitting there? So if we wanted to refinance. 859 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 1: For example, the big thing for mortgage companies is if 860 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,320 Speaker 1: one day you can't pay, we have to take this 861 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 1: house back from you and sell it. We want to 862 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: make sure that we get our money back, so if 863 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 1: there's any lean against your name, we don't want anyone 864 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:46,879 Speaker 1: coming at you'd be like, oh, just selling your house. 865 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,320 Speaker 1: We need our money back as well. And so I 866 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: was like, oh, so technically, like I said, we don't 867 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 1: have to pay that, but I just want to give 868 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: an update because it was like the news to me 869 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,399 Speaker 1: that we don't have to pay it, but it might 870 00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: hold us up if we were getting a mortgage or 871 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 1: refinance later on in the future. 872 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,360 Speaker 2: Is there any way that you could have found that 873 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 2: out yourself? Like what how if you wanted to? Because 874 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 2: we got a question about that same thing about happened 875 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,719 Speaker 2: to Superman from a listener who wanted to know if 876 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 2: she wants to because she's thinking of buying a house, 877 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 2: if she wants to run her own check, Like, is 878 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:16,840 Speaker 2: there a way do you know how they found it 879 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 2: and if she could do her or do title search 880 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 2: companies just have their own you know. 881 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, honestly, search tools I was shocked. So 882 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't even like because you know, we checked his 883 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 1: credit and even when we were initially we were going 884 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:30,960 Speaker 1: to get a more expensive house, we were going to 885 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 1: get a mortgage, even when because we hadn't done a 886 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:36,320 Speaker 1: full title search before, but we had definitely like started 887 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 1: to do the basic mortgage thing. Like they ran his credit, 888 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: none of that came up. So it's I'm not gonna lie. 889 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't even you know, he was like, 890 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: what one hundred eighty dollars? I was like, you know, 891 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 1: So honestly, I don't know how they found it. It 892 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: didn't come up on his credit, It didn't show up 893 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 1: any other time. I don't know. It's almost like it's 894 00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: almost like a title search. They look at your what 895 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 1: the court is saying, that's what it looks like, because 896 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 1: like I said before, they were like people who owe 897 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 1: child support, people who like owe probation and stuff like that, 898 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 1: so this was like an outstanding ticket. So it's almost 899 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:11,879 Speaker 1: like that. And I mean, like I said, I don't 900 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:13,320 Speaker 1: quote me because I don't know for sure, but it 901 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,840 Speaker 1: was just looking at the other folks who had similar 902 00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 1: names to him that weren't him. They all seem like 903 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 1: court related finds that were pulled up, and so I 904 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 1: don't know honestly, So you might, I mean, I might 905 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 1: do a Google start and I can. What I can 906 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: do is I can ask my title company, like you know, well, 907 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 1: I don't know if they tell me like how do 908 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 1: I do it myself? So but I can certainly ask 909 00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: my realtor, who's amazing, like you know, is there a 910 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 1: way to kind of pull this up ahead of time? 911 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 2: All right? Let us know what they find out? 912 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: Yes, Lord, I can't wait till we closed. It's just 913 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 1: one thing after another, thing after another thing like what's 914 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: the COO. You have to get like a certificate of occupancy, 915 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 1: Like you have to get like the firehouse to come 916 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 1: out and make sure that your house is not like 917 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: dangerous and all this other stuff before you can buy it. 918 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 1: So there are all of these things that kind of 919 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 1: are not obstacles. But I didn't realize these things that 920 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 1: you have to do before you actually close. It's not 921 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,320 Speaker 1: just enough to say, hey, I have cash, take my money. No, 922 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 1: there are things that have to happen, at least in 923 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 1: the state of New Jersey and in Newark. So I 924 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 1: don't know what other states do differently, but I have 925 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 1: to get a COO. It's two hundred and fifty dollars. 926 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: But luckily a mina, my realtor negotiated for the for 927 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 1: the bank to pay that, and so that way, you know, 928 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 1: we'll get the whoever to come in and say, yes, 929 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: this house is safe, here's your certificate of occupancy, and 930 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 1: then we can close and give them even more money 931 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 1: to close, which is. 932 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:41,920 Speaker 2: Like yay, all right, well good luck. It seems like 933 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 2: they will be smooth sailing. I mean maybe I don't know, 934 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 2: never mind, knock on wed and I'm. 935 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 1: Like, yeah, well, honestly, I'm not even honestly, we're gonna 936 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 1: get that.

It's her 973 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 1: book about like specifically about the election, we just in general. 974 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 2: I'm on page five and it's five hundred pages. But 975 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 2: in the first few pages, I mean I wanted to 976 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 2: read it because I kept reading everyone's opinion about it, 977 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 2: and I'm like, no one's read this book yet, Like 978 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 2: it's five hundred pages. It just came out a week ago. 979 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 2: People need to actually read it first. But no, it 980 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 2: is it's like her, it's it's I think what it is. 981 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 2: I just reading her, just reading her author's note at 982 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:56,879 Speaker 2: the beginning. I understand why she wrote it. And yeah, 983 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 2: there's a lot of people who were upset. They're like, well, 984 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,839 Speaker 2: she sit down and shut up. She lost the election, 985 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 2: me to move on. She's just a sore loser, you know. 986 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,840 Speaker 2: She wants to take a chance to blame everyone but herself. 987 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 2: But honestly, I think what she wants is, you know 988 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 2: how the winners in history are the ones who write history. 989 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 2: I think this is her saying, I'm not going to 990 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,560 Speaker 2: let this winner write the history books the way he 991 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 2: wants them. I'm going to put my voice out there. 992 00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 2: I'm going to tell the story as I saw it 993 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 2: in my perspective. Matters and it should be out there. 994 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 2: And I was the first female to ever be nominated 995 00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 2: by a major party for president, and that matters, and 996 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 2: I want to tell that story. And yeah, I think, 997 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 2: of course it also covers everything that, you know, what 998 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 2: happened to the election, but she also is talking about 999 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,360 Speaker 2: what's happened after. She talks about being there at the 1000 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 2: inaugural and how sick she felt during and how she 1001 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 2: almost did it go to the inaugural. So it's it's juicy, 1002 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 2: and I don't know, I'm going to read the whole thing. 1003 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 2: I think I'm interested.

You know. 1023 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 1: So I used to hire what I would call or 1024 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 1: not even just hire, but I used to have at 1025 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,560 Speaker 1: least one what I call a bully friend. And I've 1026 00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 1: noticed that this has been a trend since I was 1027 00:48:57,120 --> 00:48:58,759 Speaker 1: a kid, Like there was always somebody in my life 1028 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: who is my friend, but there was an edge of 1029 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 1: bullyiness in that, you know, where I was like whenever 1030 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 1: they came around, I'd be like Oh my god, it's 1031 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 1: my bully friend. Hey girl, Hey, yeah, whatever you want, 1032 00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:10,880 Speaker 1: it's fine. You know, I'll send the back. No, no, 1033 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 1: this is the problem. You could take the bigger share, 1034 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 1: I'll get the middle seat. And I don't know what 1035 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 1: it is or what it is about that person's personality 1036 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:23,319 Speaker 1: that they would not necessarily bully other people, but there 1037 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:24,880 Speaker 1: was something in them and something in me. When we 1038 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: got together. I became like subservient and they became like 1039 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:30,840 Speaker 1: kind of a bully and I wouldn't see them do 1040 00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 1: that to other people, and I was wondering, like, wow, 1041 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 1: what is that. So I have finally recognized it because 1042 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 1: it was a friend of mine who told me that. 1043 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: He was like, why do you like I just talk 1044 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: to you that way? And I'm like like what, They're like, 1045 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, crazy, I'm like do they They're like, 1046 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: uh yeah. So just recently I have been really cleaning 1047 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 1: out because one of my best friends in high school 1048 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 1: was a bully friend. It was awesome at first, who 1049 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,480 Speaker 1: were best friends. Everything was great, and then it's almost 1050 00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,920 Speaker 1: like maybe I let her say something to me sideways 1051 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: and I let it slide, and then it grew By 1052 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:05,320 Speaker 1: the time we graduated in high college. She was terrible 1053 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 1: to me anyway, and it like it took everything in 1054 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 1: me to kind of let her go. But I recognize that, 1055 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:13,520 Speaker 1: Like every once in a while, I would pick up 1056 00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 1: a new bully friend, whether it's somebody who I was 1057 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 1: working with or you know, something like that. And so 1058 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:22,560 Speaker 1: recently I really started to clean up the bully friends 1059 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 1: or just even bully coworkers or bully partners or whatever 1060 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 1: in my life and gotten rid of them. And like 1061 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 1: I said, not because they're super terrible people. I'm not 1062 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 1: even gonna say that. There's just sometimes it's and I 1063 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:37,839 Speaker 1: don't know where that comes from in me. I don't 1064 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:39,560 Speaker 1: know if it's because I'm like from a big family. 1065 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,160 Speaker 1: I don't know that my dad had a really strong personality, 1066 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:44,919 Speaker 1: and I learned to just be like easygoing, like it's fine, 1067 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: it's fine, Like I don't know what it is, but 1068 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,359 Speaker 1: it doesn't come out a whole lot. But every once 1069 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,800 Speaker 1: in a while, there's just someone who does that. So 1070 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: like I, like I said, this is Sia. 1071 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:58,400 Speaker 2: Maybe they're just assholes and you're nice, Like what is that? 1072 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:00,319 Speaker 2: Why are you blaming your self? 1073 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 1: You know what? 1074 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 2: And maybe they're just there. 1075 00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:06,839 Speaker 1: And you know what, and I don't. I mean, it's 1076 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 1: that's to me, it's easy to dismiss it, dismiss it 1077 00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 1: at that, but honestly, oftentimes like it doesn't start off 1078 00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: that way, or I won't see them be like that 1079 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,319 Speaker 1: with everyone. And I'm like, and I used to think 1080 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,480 Speaker 1: to myself, like when I was kind of like engaged 1081 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 1: in that kind of weird dynamic, that like Tiffany you 1082 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 1: have to stand up for yourself or Tiffy you have 1083 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 1: to figure out, like how do you conquer this? But 1084 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:26,319 Speaker 1: now I'm realizing at the age I am now, I'm 1085 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:28,879 Speaker 1: not trying to conquer it, just get out, Like I'm 1086 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:30,759 Speaker 1: not trying to figure out like why we had this 1087 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 1: weird dynamic or how we started off so great and 1088 00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 1: now you're so mean, or now you talk flip to 1089 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,000 Speaker 1: me when we get on the phone and I'm like, 1090 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 1: what the hell how do we get here? Honestly, I 1091 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 1: don't care anymore. I don't care about the backstory. I'm 1092 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 1: just now I've just learned to clean out, and so 1093 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,560 Speaker 1: just recently I've done a lot of cleaning out. And 1094 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:52,280 Speaker 1: today someone who like is on my team really remarked 1095 00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: upon how different I am now that we've done a 1096 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 1: lot of cleaning and pruning. And she was like, Yo, 1097 00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: you're like amazing. I'm like what she's like, Your leadership style, 1098 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:05,840 Speaker 1: your energy, everything's been amazing. And I'm like, wow, So 1099 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: it's making this huge difference in that that's a dark cloud. 1100 00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:13,239 Speaker 1: And once I'm able to release myself from these type 1101 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: of people personally and professionally, you know, I can really 1102 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 1: like I mean, I think it seems so obvious, but 1103 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 1: it's hard, you know. And I didn't even recognize that 1104 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: was something that I was doing because just the other 1105 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:28,399 Speaker 1: day I almost hired a bully. And because this person 1106 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: brought so much to the table. And I don't even 1107 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:32,080 Speaker 1: think you know, they don't know this, but they brought 1108 00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:33,719 Speaker 1: so much to the table, I thought, Wow, this person 1109 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:35,719 Speaker 1: is great. Like I'm reading through resumes and I did 1110 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:37,600 Speaker 1: a bunch of interviews and I was like, Wow, this 1111 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: person is awesome. This person's great. But then after like 1112 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 1: talking to a bunch of people on the phone, I 1113 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 1: was like, wow, this person is very aggressive and silent, irreverend, 1114 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 1: and I realized that Tiffany, this is a bully. This 1115 00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,759 Speaker 1: is a bully. Do not bring this person into your life. No, 1116 00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:55,240 Speaker 1: you just got rid of all of your bully friends 1117 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:59,880 Speaker 1: no more. And so you know, even though her credential 1118 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 1: were amazing, I said no, because it's possible to be 1119 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,640 Speaker 1: both well credentialed and talented and nice. 1120 00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 2: Oh so yeah, And that's that's a poison. That's a 1121 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 2: poisonous person. It's a toxicity that's going to seep through 1122 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:20,359 Speaker 2: every I learned this the hard way last year when 1123 00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 2: I hired my I hired this investigative reporter who was 1124 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 2: so well credentialed, and he was he was very he 1125 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 2: was older, and he was very tough and like rugged, 1126 00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:34,920 Speaker 2: like what you think of as an investigative reporter.
