1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, they talk better than these are the radio blogs 2 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: on the Fred Show. So it's like running in our diaries, 3 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: except we say them aloud. We call them blogs. I'm 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:13,320 Speaker 1: going to take one deer blog. I outed myself, so 5 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: it's it's like I I posted the picture, So it's 6 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,320 Speaker 1: my fault. But I've developed a bit of a new obsession. 7 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: And as you know, I go through seasons of obsessions. 8 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: What all have I gone through in recent times? Whether 9 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 1: it was the glider pilot thing. I did get my 10 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: glider pilot license, there was that, just a normal obsession 11 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: that somebody would have. During COVID, I was bored. I 12 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: became a flight instructor. I was bored. I don't know 13 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: what else about. There was the fruit in the water. 14 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 1: I went through that phase. Aren't you a gamer? At 15 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: I tried to be a gamer. I just don't have 16 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 1: the coordination or the attention span. But my latest thing, 17 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: and I really am not entirely sure where it came from. 18 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: I want to blame TikTok because I said I got 19 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: on the Lego TikTok algorithm. But I assembled last week 20 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 1: or two weeks ago on vacation, I assembled a Lego 21 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: concord plane, a Lego concord plane, and the thing is massive, 22 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: and it was limited edition, and then they got more 23 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 1: in and then I found one and I bought it 24 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: and I put a Lego concord together. Now, I just 25 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: want to discuss with you the range of emotions that 26 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: I experienced assembling a Lego concord. There was happiness, there 27 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: was satisfaction, there was sadness, there was frustration, there was anger. 28 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 1: In fact, if there were a number of times where 29 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: I thought about just destroying the thing because I don't 30 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: know why. But it's not as easy as I thought 31 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: it would be. Like it's not hard. It comes with 32 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: a big book and you just do what it says. 33 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: But I don't know, like it does require like if 34 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 1: you mess up one thing, you may not find out 35 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: about it for a little while as you put like 36 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: the modules together. But see, growing up never had this, 37 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: We never had the kind of legos, like the kits. 38 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: My mom would just buy us a big bucket of 39 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: Legos and be like, here you go make something. Yeah, 40 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,119 Speaker 1: But I don't know if maybe they didn't have these 41 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: kits back then, because I don't remember having to follow 42 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: instructions to put somebody together in like model form. But 43 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: I did it, and I was very satisfied at the end, 44 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 1: and I find it somewhat therapeutic and somewhat relaxing while 45 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: also really frustrating. But then I went and bought an 46 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: F one car and I assemble that the McLaren F 47 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: one car, and it's pretty freaking cool when they come together, 48 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: Like the amount of detail is unbelievable. But now that 49 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: I realize, I'm kind of obsessed with it. Then I 50 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: bought it's at my house and I got to go 51 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: put it together. Now, I bought a pac Man video game. 52 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: So it's not an actual video game, like you can't 53 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: actually play it, but it looks like a mini arcade 54 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 1: pac Man made out of legos. 55 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 2: Oh that's cool. 56 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: So I bought that. But I mean, I think the 57 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: problem is I'm a grown up with grown up money, 58 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: and I have the I have enough fu money to 59 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: spend on things that I, as a kid, wouldn't have 60 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: been able to. So now I can go out and 61 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: buy whatever legos I want and put them together. I 62 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: love it. I don't know, do any of you have 63 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,839 Speaker 1: any sort of like juvenile type hobbies that you're into. 64 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: I can't decide if I think this is good for 65 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: me or if it just adds to my anxiety. I 66 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: can't tell. 67 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 2: So my baby's turning. She's turning one tomorrow. Actually she 68 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: isn't saying So GI's turning one.

But I want to get back to 99 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: this tomorrow because there was a whole story today about 100 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: about all the things that adults are doing now because 101 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: they have the money, the expendable income to do them 102 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: that they didn't when they were a kid. And legos 103 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: is on the list of things that like adults are 104 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: obsessed with. I have to be honest, though, even as 105 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: a forty something, they're pretty freaking cool. Like when it 106 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: all comes together, they look really cool, and they've got 107 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: like cars, and they have if you're into Star Wars 108 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: and Harry Potter, they have all kinds of stuff and 109 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: I'm not, but they have like art you can do 110 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: a Mona Lisa. You can do like a Picasso. You 111 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: can do that love thing that's in I think is 112 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: that Philadelphia where that thing is that the love statue? 113 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 2: Well that is yeah, I saw that in Philly. 114 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: They have like city scapes. You can do the Pyramids, 115 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: you can do the Eiffel Tower. You can do a 116 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: Titanic for seven hundred dollars, which I'm not I'll get 117 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: it for you, Kalin, I guess, and you can have 118 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: a you know, half of the Titanic in your home. 119 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I need that. I mean seven hundred dollars. 120 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: So I mean, but it would probably take me weeks 121 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: and weeks and weeks to put it together. The other 122 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: problem is I don't have any discipline, Like once I 123 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: sit down and I become determined, Like the other day 124 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: when I was putting the race car together, I think 125 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: it was like six hours and I didn't eat dinner, 126 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: like at some point it was it was like I 127 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: didn't I didn't like drink water, go to the bathroom, 128 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: like I was just so immersed the process. I just 129 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: I just couldn't put it down until it was finished. 130 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna say. Yeah, like I it 131 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: has to be complete otherwise it drives me crazy. So 132 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: I really am not yet sure if it's there, because 133 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: I've seen people online talk about how it's relaxing and 134 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: therapeutic for them, but I'm not really sure if it 135 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: is or if it's really actually stressful. You need like focus. 136 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 2: That's why I'm I'm for me personally, I couldn't do that. 137 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: I have no focus to do a Lego set. But 138 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 2: when you said, you know, you bought your plane one 139 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 2: and all these things, I'm like, you really have a 140 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: lot of a lot of attention to give because. 141 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 3: It'll help you. Because like when I I just started 142 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 3: on my Lego journey too, but I didn't even have 143 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 3: I didn't know this. Yeah, I didn't have Legos growing up. 144 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 3: But I decided about a month ago that when my 145 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 3: mom bought me one, I think it was for Christmas, 146 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 3: so it was a little over that she bought for 147 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 3: my birthday. She bought me my first set. So but 148 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 3: what I noticed is when I was sitting there doing it, 149 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 3: it made me focus to a point where it was 150 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 3: like two hours of like I didn't worry about anything. 151 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 3: I didn't think about all the other things I had 152 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 3: to do. And actually, I don't know if that's really 153 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 3: relaxing or I do agree that it's therapeutic because you 154 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 3: don't think about all the other stuff that's stressing you 155 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 3: out because you're focused on like this one thing. And 156 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 3: then when I was done, I was like, oh my god, 157 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 3: Like it was almost like like it was a sleep 158 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 3: or something, and like when I woke back. 159 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: Up, I'm like, wow, Yeah, what did you put together? 160 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: What kids? Did you get? Panda? 161 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 3: My mom got me two pandas and a tree, So 162 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 3: I have a little Panama set sitting on my dining 163 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 3: room table. Yeah. 164 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. The concord came with a little floral arrangement that 165 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: you put together in Legos, and so I put that. 166 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: It was free with purchase, so I put that together. 167 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: I gave it to my mom. Yeah. Huge. I don't know. 168 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess there are worse things to be 169 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: obsessed with, but I don't know. I hope I'm not. Well, 170 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: I'm not the only one, because apparently Jason and I 171 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: are both on a Lego journey. The only issue I 172 00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: have is, like I would I'm hoping that when Pauly 173 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: get a little bit older, she wants Legos too, But 174 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: it's not really like a it's not really like a 175 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: tandem activity because like the pieces build on each other. 176 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: It's not like I could say, Okay, Polly, you do 177 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: this bag and I'll do this bag, because it doesn't 178 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: really work that way because you kind of have to. 179 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: It has to go into order and then it has 180 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: to like stack on each other. So it does. I 181 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: don't know. It's kind of like a one person activity. 182 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: But that's perfect because I'm all about one person activities. 183 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 1: I do a lot of one person activities. Most of 184 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: what I do is one person activities. My love life 185 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: is a one person activity. It's all one person activity, 186 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: so I'm pretty much used to that. But but yeah, 187 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: so the lego Jason and I are together. We're on 188 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: a lego Joey. 189 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: Yeah. 190 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: Yes, something I never thought I would say as a 191 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: grown up, But here we are.
