And we're going to start off this week 0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:54.600 with a night email from our listeners. Solely. I think 0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:59.960 I'm pronouncing that right, she writes longtime listener first time 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.560 an E. Coller. I saw this link on Reddit and 0:01:02.600 --> 0:01:05.200 could only think of this podcast. It's a video of 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:08.520 drunk people in Miami, unbothered by coronavirus in the name 0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:12.120 of spring break, watching a herd of people rationalize the 0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:15.679 irrational through the power of alcohol as profound, one might 0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:19.720 even say cult like. Also, thank you guys for reporting 0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:21.640 on the issues at hand with the usual dose of 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.200 dark silliness. This pot has been both an uplifting and 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:27.840 informative resource in trying times. Wishing you all safety and health. 0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:31.640 Thank you so much. Slowly again, I hope I'm pronouncing 0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:36.679 your name right. Um, yeah, definitely saw this making the 0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:42.520 rounds uh this week on the socials, Um, Miami remains 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:53.520 undaunted in the face of coronavirus. Are we surprised? I mean, 0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:59.000 ring break is all about a immortality complex though, I 0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.720 mean just poisoning yourself and harming your body over and 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.800 over and over again because it is help you, alright, 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:10.760 he heatonistic celebration Again. I blame this more on all 0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:14.720 the cities for not shutting down in time. Yeah, I 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:19.480 think it's also a big pile of blame on STS, 0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:24.640 the travel agency that has been booking these like massive vacations. 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:28.079 They have not canceled. I mean as of recording. I 0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:31.440 don't think that they have canceled anything, um, which is 0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:33.919 mind boggling. But then you're then you have to think 0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:37.120 about the fact that under normal conditions, this is a 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.680 travel agency that's just like taking a big risk on 0:02:40.800 --> 0:02:44.519 people getting their stomachs pumped and stuff. So maybe they're 0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:48.400 just used to that. But I was astonished that there 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.160 was that video of that one guy going around where 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:54.680 he was like, oh, if I have to go down coronavirus, 0:02:54.680 --> 0:02:56.320 Like I've been waiting for the spring break for a 0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.960 long time, so I gotta do it. You're just like, Wow, 0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:06.680 it just doesn't seem like even like surely people are 0:03:06.760 --> 0:03:09.600 like at least a little bit stressed or something, right, Like, 0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:11.799 I just can't even if he decided that it wasn't 0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:13.840 going to kill you, like, why would you be in 0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:16.640 the mood for this at all? I can't. I can't. 0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.280 I feel like they also made the mistake of being 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:21.640 like it doesn't affect young people in the news for 0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:23.680 a while, and then they had to walk that back. 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.799 Probably a lot of young people were like, well, it 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:32.560 doesn't affect me so like a toilet seat. Yeah, it's 0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:36.800 been really um, quite embarrassing for for a lot of 0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:39.760 millennials and and gen Zeros. I will have to say, 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:41.680 but well, I mean for what you were saying though 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:44.760 about the city's like the mayor of Miami is not 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:48.040 happy about this. He's like trying to get people to leave. 0:03:48.280 --> 0:03:51.360 And he gave a quote where he said spring break 0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:59.280 is over over. Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber says, we 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:03.160 cannot become mkitri dish for a very dangerous virus. Spring 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:08.360 break is over. The party is over, man, Okay, yeah, 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:11.840 Miami says the party is over. Well, I mean we 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:14.320 have to wait until Pitbull always in the true mayor 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:19.520 of Miami. But but that's pretty serious. Well Mr Worldwide 0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:23.279 knows that this is a worldwide pandemic. Yeah, no, Mr 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:27.120 Worldwide is a collectivist. He gets it. I would assume, 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:30.040 So I don't. I haven't actually heard from pit Bull. 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.719 What I like listening? Please call in tonight, call and 0:04:33.800 --> 0:04:36.400 let us know the official Pitbull stands. I'll spring break 0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:40.680 pit Bull records a special track, like an uplift, like 0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:43.479 like does his version of the horrible Galga dot like 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:46.640 celebrity imagine video. But if he does like a party track, 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:49.320 I'm going to weep like that to break me. It 0:04:49.360 --> 0:04:52.479 will make me so happy. I'm probably here for you know. 0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:55.440 I don't think there should be no coronavirus novelty songs. 0:04:55.680 --> 0:05:00.440 I think just the Maudlin ones are like terrible. But 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:05.120 there's a version of fuck Corona. Uh that is the 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:08.160 song fuck Katrina. It's like a New Orleans Bounce song. 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:11.320 It was called Katrina. Somebody did an update called fun Corona. 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.960 I've been listening to that a lot. Makes me good. 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.640 It's great. Well, just puts you put you in a 0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:19.880 good mood. You guys know, I was like obsessed with 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:22.359 the video from Italy of the guy playing Rhythm of 0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:26.000 the Night office balcony, but that's the artist is Corona, 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:31.719 Like oh got a doubles? There are all sorts of 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:34.720 Corona party songs. Of the Night is a great song. 0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:40.120 It's a fantastic cry. I've hated the song Imagine. It's 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:44.359 in my top ten hated songs anyway, So I felt 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:47.239 I was glad. I was like, finally everyone else's catching 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:50.320 Now we can finally agree. This isn't Imagine. We can 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:54.320 all hate. But yeah, handedly killed the song, I hope. 0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:58.000 So Johnny had Imagine in his head because of it 0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.280 and all the parodies, and he was like, well you ease, 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.200 like put some other song in my head because I 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.600 hate Imagine. And so I started singing Mambo number five. 0:06:07.200 --> 0:06:09.640 I have been listening to Mambo number five because when 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:13.400 you're in a very like heightened emotional stay, you feel 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:18.279 really nuji. There's something it just gets you. Yeah. No. 0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:21.159 I tried to make a quiet Storm mix because I 0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:22.840 was feeling so stressed out. I was like, I have 0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:24.960 to make a mix, and I thought quiet Storm would 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.200 relax me. But then it was like too emotional and 0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:29.400 it was too late at night, so that I was like, 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.000 I'm just gonna make a mix of nineties R and 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:35.200 B songs about like sitting in your room and staying home, 0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:38.680 set up in your room, perhaps sitting up in your 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:44.240 room just kicking it. Nothing depressing, nothing. Yeah. No, I've 0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:46.680 realized now that a lot of my music is too 0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:50.680 scary to listen to now, which is fine other times. Yeah. 0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:53.839 I mean, anybody who's been to a nightcall nights knows 0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:59.279 that I tend to play like some spooky vibes and uh, 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:01.679 and that's not for night call, Like that's my taste 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:03.680 in music, and a lot of it I'm just put 0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:06.200 on for five seconds and I'm like, nope, nope, I 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:08.880 can't listen to this right now. Um. I feel the 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:10.880 way about movies. There's a lot of movies I don't 0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:15.760 want to watch. Specifically, what did you watch if all? 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:17.360 As I was thinking, I was like, I'm in the 0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:21.000 perfect mood for it follows right now. You watched Annihilation? Also, 0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:24.120 you're really leaning into it. I didn't like Annihilation that 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:26.800 much the first time we saw it and covered it on. 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:30.200 I know you guys really found on It's super hard, yes, 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:33.000 but look who gets the last laugh. You know, I 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:35.640 and I enjoyed it. My husband's first time seeing it, 0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:40.680 he enjoyed it. I mean, I don't know where you 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:47.520 were right all along? I thank you get it up. Um, well, 0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:54.560 speaking of Florida, U on on all accounts. Uh so, 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:57.800 so what's the situation with the Disney properties right now? 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:04.920 Disney World remains open, they're all closed so forced to close. Um, 0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:08.040 there was an exception in the California bill that they 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:10.400 could stay open, but they're not doing it because they 0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:14.400 don't want people to get coronavirus at Disneyland. I believe. Um. 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:18.960 I heart radio podcasts own Jamie Loftus went the last 0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:25.160 day before Disney cland closed forever and had had a 0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:30.160 great time, but they shut it down. And in Disney 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:33.920 World they did something seemingly worse, which is that because 0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:38.679 people like travel to Orlando, you know, maybe just stuck 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:43.680 in Orlando. Um, the president of Disney World did something 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:46.679 where they like brought everybody out for one last firework 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:49.360 show to be like, hey, you know, we know you're 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:52.360 not getting your Disney World trips, so here's a a 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:55.080 little nice thank you anyway of a firework show. But 0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:58.640 it was like a billion people crowded in a plaza together. 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:05.840 Oh my god, such a bad idea. Yeah, I've been 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:09.520 appreciating that so far my limited experiences outside, people have 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:14.000 been respecting the social distancing, you know, like six ft ya. 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.520 But I know that that has not been the case everywhere. 0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:19.640 I know in New York a lot people have been 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.000 complaining that people just don't seem to be I think 0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:25.120 it must be a lot harder in New York because 0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:30.360 you're in a much denser space. Uh. People wise, it 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:33.199 definitely seems pretty easy in l A. If you are 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:36.520 in the an area, that's not super Even if you are, 0:09:36.559 --> 0:09:40.840 it's like you can in Marriage Story. Your guys favorite 0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:46.079 it's just more space have thought of that. But they 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:48.520 did shut down. They shut down the Chinese theater, they 0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:52.720 shut down all the big tourist attractions for real. Bourbon 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:56.240 Street is shut down in New Orleans. Um, And there's 0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:58.720 a really good cam network I'm sure I've talked about 0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:02.760 before called Earth Came UM that just has live cams 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:06.120 on a bunch of basically tourist areas around the world, 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:08.880 and I've definitely been looking at those. I posted some 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:12.520 spooky screen grabs on my Twitter, um the other night, 0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:15.960 but just Bourbon Street is totally empty. I watched just 0:10:16.040 --> 0:10:19.920 a rat run around and be the King of Bourbon 0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:23.120 Street and it was the best. But there's been a 0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:28.439 lot of good animal videos again, like very um very 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:32.800 annihilation ee. Yeah. And I think I think the people 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:35.120 who are being eco fascist about it and being like 0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:37.839 it's because the earth is like reclaiming it's it's time 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:46.120 are not good obviously, but it's just yeah, it's not sorry, 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:49.319 run it back right well and this will be coming 0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:55.560 before we talk about that. It's just h yeah um yeah. 0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:59.040 I think it just shows that we obviously also need 0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.240 to deal with climate change and talk about that and 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.480 in a way it's all one problem. Yeah. I think 0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:07.520 the thing that's driving me crazy right now is that 0:11:07.600 --> 0:11:10.559 like obviously, like this is not unrelated to climate change, 0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:12.440 Like this is something that has been predicted for a 0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:15.960 long time, the ability for these mass pandemics to to 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:21.640 break out because of climate change. Um. And like I 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:23.679 went out to take the trash out today, I'm like, 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.600 I'm like I am way on one end of a 0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:31.680 scale as far as like um, recycling food waste stuff 0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:34.040 like that. I'm hyper visual about it. And I try 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:36.760 to generate as little waste as possible. So I was 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:40.000 like bringing out my two little like Trader Joe's bags 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:43.600 of trash and recyclables and just seeing like people piled 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:46.760 up like all their pizza boxes and stuff. Because everybody's 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:50.199 just ordering delivery, I guess, and like um and ordering 0:11:50.200 --> 0:11:53.480 ship off of Amazon. It's just like, oh God, like 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:57.120 this is sort of compounding this no, and it it 0:11:57.160 --> 0:11:59.559 feels like a reckoning because it's like we're in techno 0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:03.600 feudal is um where we have all this useless like 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:07.640 baroque stuff. We have the weirdest things that people don't 0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:10.640 actually need, but we don't have any of the baseline 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:14.880 things we actually do need. Yeah, and that, But also 0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.839 on the flip side, I will I will just play 0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:21.520 Devil's advocate and say that I think families who have 0:12:21.720 --> 0:12:25.680 little kids, we're creating a ton of trash right now 0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:28.640 and feel terrible about it. But it's like I don't 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:32.800 know even where to begin with that because everything has 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:35.080 to be delivered, and yeah, it's not and it's not 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:37.800 on the individual, it's just this entire system that we've 0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:40.040 grown up and where it's just like, oh, you can 0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:42.480 order a cable that you need that comes in an 0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:45.520 entire box with shipping materials all over it, and that 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:48.840 makes sense, and there's and it's cheap, so why not 0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:51.079 do it? But do you guys remember when people made 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:54.079 when bottled water was like a rich people thing. Yeah, 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:56.079 I remember when bottled water used to be made fun 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.040 of it. Now everybody just yeah, and now it's just 0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:01.280 how people drink water. Yeah. It definitely feels like we're 0:13:01.280 --> 0:13:03.800 being forced to walk back some of the things that 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:08.559 everybody took for granted about how the world works. Maybe again, 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.600 possibly for good, because some of those things aren't great. 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:19.679 Never forget that Avian is naives backwards from This is 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:22.160 totally off topic, but I will just say that one 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:26.400 thing that this shift has made me consider is owning chickens, 0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:32.000 which I never want a chicken. Yeah, I try. I 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.640 was wanting to sell my family on it, and everyone 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:38.240 was like, we really, like even my kids were like, 0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:41.240 we don't want more animals to take care of, like 0:13:41.280 --> 0:13:43.800 we're stretched so thin. And I was thinking, guys, I 0:13:43.880 --> 0:13:46.800 can't find any eggs, I don't have much to do. 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:49.319 It's time to get chickens. And I couldn't even know 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:52.640 the kids get a chicken, I'll compare it your chicken 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:59.520 with you, because yes, let's do that should be worried 0:13:59.559 --> 0:14:02.080 about that it would be eaten by a coyote. And 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.440 then we both not if it's in a coup, not 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:10.040 if it's in a coop. Do need to start taking 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:13.600 suggestions now for the name of the night called chicken? Yes, 0:14:16.880 --> 0:14:19.720 our feature mascot watched a lot of this show Doomsday 0:14:19.760 --> 0:14:22.400 Preppers the other day, so you were in the mood 0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:27.320 for that, but you know I didn't. It ended up 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:31.640 being really funny, not on purpose, but it also had 0:14:31.680 --> 0:14:36.320 some good tips. I'm just gonna say such. Well. Also, 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:39.120 another friend of mine, my friend Lizzie, was saying she's 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:42.600 a researcher for films and for the last like three 0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.120 months she was doing research on a film about a 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:51.480 pandemic and read everything about pandemics and then kind of 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.360 like became not a prepper, but like bought a lot 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.480 of food as soon as she heard about coronavirus. And 0:14:57.520 --> 0:14:59.040 she said she was like the first person at the 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.120 store doing it, and the store employees were like, why 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:06.360 are you buying so much food? She's like, because it's coming. Well, 0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:08.760 we're all living in it now. I still can't find 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:12.320 any toilet paper. It's fine. Um, We're going to take 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.640 a quick break and when we come back, we're going 0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:17.640 to have a very special night call. For a very 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:40.280 special nightcall, correspondent, We'll be right back. Hi. What l 0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:44.800 like you've all at the school with anything?

We had a couple of other questions, 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:46.400 um from readers. Let's see, okay, so we haven't wanted 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:48.960 to get an idea of what it was like to 0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:52.360 be a kid during COVID nineteen, So we're getting we're 0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:56.240 getting the voice of the youth here. Yeah, what do 0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:58.480 you think what's it been like for the past week 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:02.320 since you haven't had school? Awesome? It's been awesome. Why 0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:04.480 because I get a video games all day. I get 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:08.719 to fun home school, no crazy ore, and I get 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.280 video game play dates. Yeah, video game play dates have 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.440 been really clutch. Who do you play with? Is he 0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:18.520 as good as you are at Zelda? No? No, is 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:21.880 anyone as good as you are at Zelda? No? Dad? 0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:25.680 That is really good at Zelda too. Um. From Eric, 0:17:25.840 --> 0:17:28.800 we had a question, what do you think school will 0:17:28.840 --> 0:17:32.520 be like next year? Since everybody had so much trablically, 0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:37.159 I'll be infurred grade since it's like a whole summer stuff. 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:42.840 Do you feel prepared for third grade right now? No? 0:17:44.760 --> 0:17:51.320 Um and everything? Yes, what do you know about coronavirus? 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:53.720 I'm not a grown up. I don't know anything about that. 0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:59.919 All right, good, I'm doing len the affording stuff. Thank you? 0:18:00.000 --> 0:18:03.280 I were you nervous to be on this podcast? Oh much? 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:09.119 Extremely extremely nervous. I can't tell how much money are 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:18.359 you getting? Okay, buddy, thank you so much. I'm gonna 0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:24.840 let emt um go, I'm gonna free him. Thank you, Emmett, 0:18:24.840 --> 0:18:29.200 and you walk yourself back. Thanks, thank you. I would 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:34.280 have a good day. I love hearing from the single 0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:38.800 digit uh cohort. We need to get a diversity of 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:42.399 viewpoints and right now a night call for the our 0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:45.040 extreme times right now. So thank you very much to 0:18:45.080 --> 0:18:47.639 Emmett for that. Me too. It is really interesting to 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:50.520 think about too, because it's like we keep placing it 0:18:50.560 --> 0:18:53.440 in terms of like, our entire adult lives have been 0:18:53.520 --> 0:18:57.760 so weird, but we had like a period of normalcy 0:18:57.840 --> 0:19:00.520 before that. If you're a kid right now, you're you're 0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:02.840 just like, that's just what it's like. Everything, it's weird 0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:06.879 all the time. Yeah, I think it's actually harder for 0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:09.280 kids like Emmett is kind of able to roll with 0:19:09.320 --> 0:19:13.080 it a bit better than my daughter because she she 0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:17.560 doesn't she can't understand what is happening. He kind of can. 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:20.200 And it's so far, so good. But I think when 0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:27.000 we enter week three, it's gonna not be good for anybody. Yeah, definitely. 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:30.160 I mean, I think human all humans of all ages 0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:34.840 are encountering like the limits of indoor time, but also 0:19:35.680 --> 0:19:38.960 the importance of indoor time what have you been doing 0:19:39.000 --> 0:19:43.520 to keep everybody occupied? Tests? What kind of programming have 0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:47.840 you have you moved into this week? Um, okay, so 0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:51.639 every day both kids have were Actually my daughter has 0:19:51.720 --> 0:19:58.680 zoom meetings with preschool, which us sophisticated. I know. Um, 0:19:58.720 --> 0:20:03.399 they do circle time zoom meetings and uh, Emmett's his 0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:07.400 second grade teacher does story times. So she's reading fantastic Mr. 0:20:07.480 --> 0:20:12.560 Fox every day and we take a walk any day. 0:20:12.680 --> 0:20:16.560 Uh that it's not raining and other than that, right 0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:21.639 up television all the time. That's what I've heard. That 0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:24.680 is what I've heard from many parents is that it's 0:20:24.800 --> 0:20:28.680 really hard. Screen time rules are off, they are off, 0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:31.119 and I mean they're really good. Like, we have a 0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:35.000 couple of different educational software things in the mix. There's 0:20:35.040 --> 0:20:39.840 Freckle con Academy and Prodigy um and so we've been 0:20:39.840 --> 0:20:42.240 trying to do some of that. And you can earn 0:20:42.520 --> 0:20:46.120 video game minutes if you do reading minutes. But it's 0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:49.280 so hard, because it's really especially if you have multiple kids. 0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:52.360 I think you have to be so on top of it, 0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:57.840 and being managing both kids different activities from home is 0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:01.120 so hard, especially when you're just trying to like maintain 0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:04.639 your your chill level. Yeah, it's On the other hand, 0:21:05.119 --> 0:21:08.919 is it nice to like have a attack, Yes, I 0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:10.919 mean it's it's also nice to have the company. Like 0:21:10.960 --> 0:21:14.879 we're all kind of we're like hunkered down and trying 0:21:14.920 --> 0:21:17.040 to make the best of it. But it's hard when 0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:20.880 they get cranky, and it's you know, trying to explain 0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:26.520 that we can't go anywhere, um as of yesterday, and 0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:29.679 it's I'm very supportive of that. I want everyone to 0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:31.880 stay home, and other than our walks around the block, 0:21:31.920 --> 0:21:36.000 we've been staying home. But like explaining to my daughter, 0:21:36.760 --> 0:21:38.920 you know, that we can't go on a plan trip 0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:41.320 to Lego Land or a school trip that she had 0:21:41.359 --> 0:21:43.600 been looking forward to and that kind of stuff. It's 0:21:43.680 --> 0:21:47.440 just it's a bomber. Yeah, even if you're not a kid. 0:21:47.680 --> 0:21:50.879 This has been a weird thing. I've noticed with my brains, 0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:54.240 you know, fleeting grasps of reality with all of this. 0:21:55.320 --> 0:21:57.399 Like there was a point last night, and it was 0:21:57.480 --> 0:21:59.920 some time after they issued the shelter in place or 0:22:00.080 --> 0:22:04.120 or for Los Angeles that you know, and again it's 0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:05.880 this thing where it's like I was fine to stay 0:22:05.920 --> 0:22:08.200 I was more or less doing shelter in place before 0:22:08.200 --> 0:22:10.760 there was an order for it, but now they've kind 0:22:10.800 --> 0:22:14.040 of made it official and and and given all these recommendations, 0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:17.720 and then kind of having that order come down, it 0:22:17.800 --> 0:22:21.680 was just like, oh God, wait what wait, what's happening? Wait, 0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:24.639 not like suddenly I started having a freak out moment 0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:29.560 last night, even though I wasn't really fundamentally changing my behavior, 0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:32.399 but just the your brain does a lot of work 0:22:32.480 --> 0:22:36.000 to kind of screen you from thinking about the reality 0:22:36.000 --> 0:22:39.720 of it moments a moment, and sometimes that screen falls 0:22:39.840 --> 0:22:43.120 a little bit at some point. Every night, I've had 0:22:43.160 --> 0:22:45.479 like a wave of panic wash over me where I 0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:50.160 just think, Okay, this this could really just I mean, 0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:53.160 you couldn't end up knowing all of these people who die. 0:22:53.520 --> 0:22:56.439 It's just like your you go down into the dark place, 0:22:56.960 --> 0:22:58.600 and then in the morning I wake up and I 0:22:58.640 --> 0:23:02.480 feel okay because for a minute, I don't remember what's 0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:07.040 going on. Johnny Johnny said, it's like the time loop, 0:23:07.240 --> 0:23:11.600 the time loop from Russian Doll. Yes, exactly. It's like 0:23:11.720 --> 0:23:14.440 each day it's it's like memento. It's like each day 0:23:14.480 --> 0:23:17.119 you learn this information again and you're like, what the 0:23:17.200 --> 0:23:21.119 fund is going on? Yeah? There is though that blissful 0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:24.760 couple seconds when you're just waking up and or if 0:23:24.760 --> 0:23:26.359 you get up to go to the bathroom in the 0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:28.200 middle of the night and managed not to think about 0:23:28.240 --> 0:23:33.159 it at all, like where everything is fine. Um, yeah, 0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:36.560 it's it's or just the surrealness of it of like 0:23:36.640 --> 0:23:39.080 going outside and like it's a beautiful day and you're 0:23:39.080 --> 0:23:45.240 walking around and like everything is normal, but also it's not. Um, 0:23:45.440 --> 0:23:48.320 it feels a little bit like an alien invasion, although 0:23:49.119 --> 0:23:51.439 Johnny also said that would be worse. Don't compare it 0:23:51.480 --> 0:23:58.040 to to that. Well, Um, I've been volunteering at this 0:23:58.160 --> 0:24:00.959 nonprofit project, Angel Food. It's here in Los Angeles. It's 0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:05.159 a meals on wheels program, and there's a chef there 0:24:05.160 --> 0:24:07.680 who's like, you know, a full time UM employee there, 0:24:07.680 --> 0:24:10.480 And he was saying, like he was saying, this didn't 0:24:10.520 --> 0:24:13.720 even compare to the riots and as far as like 0:24:14.200 --> 0:24:19.119 unusual circumstances in Los Angeles, because at least with the riots, 0:24:19.119 --> 0:24:21.800 if you're privileged enough to not live in a certain neighborhood, 0:24:22.200 --> 0:24:25.399 it didn't affect you as much. Um, oh, for sure, 0:24:25.800 --> 0:24:29.520 that's out. That is definitely true, And like I think 0:24:29.560 --> 0:24:33.080 that is sort of what happened with America on this 0:24:33.320 --> 0:24:36.479 is that like they could have been showing footage of 0:24:36.520 --> 0:24:40.800 what was happening in China on American television. They just 0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:43.800 weren't at all. And now that we know that, like 0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:46.280 people in the government like knew about this for a 0:24:46.280 --> 0:24:49.119 long time, and we're selling stocks because they knew it 0:24:49.160 --> 0:24:51.679 was going to tank the business market. But like it 0:24:51.760 --> 0:24:54.920 almost feels to me put my tin hat on here, 0:24:55.119 --> 0:24:56.840 Like it does feel a little bit like the American 0:24:56.880 --> 0:25:01.080 government purposely didn't talk about it so that business could 0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:03.639 go on as long as possible and they could like 0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:09.320 sell all their stocks and buy those telemarketing stocks. I 0:25:09.320 --> 0:25:12.399 wouldn't put it beyond anybody. Yeah, I don't even know. 0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:17.520
