00:00:08 Speaker 1: But I invited you here. I thought I made myself perfectly clear. When you're a guest to my home, you gotta come to me empty. And I said, no guests. Your presences presents enough, and I already had too much stuff. 00:00:35 Speaker 2: So how did you dare to surbey me? 00:00:47 Speaker 3: Welcome to I said, no gifts. I'm Bridgard Wineger. You look incredible. We're in the backyard. The sun is setting, night is fallen, darkness is surrounding us. We're here for the podcast. It's so peaceful right now. No birds are chirping, no neighbors are making any racket. I feel wonderful. I've had all three of my meals for the day, so I'm ready to go, and you're ready to listen. I just love our guests and let's have them come onto the podcast. It's Dylan Glula and Brothy Goopta. 00:01:23 Speaker 4: Thank you so much for having us. We love you. 00:01:27 Speaker 3: I'm so happy to have you two here. It felt like it wasn't gonna happen. 00:01:31 Speaker 5: I know there were a lot of production delays. Well, it's that we want to be CGI in person somehow. 00:01:41 Speaker 2: You're talking about a hologroom. That's a hologroom. Oh, yeah, cgi, but in person. 00:01:45 Speaker 3: Well, what happened was I feel like maybe we had you booked. I can't remember, but then Dylan kind of fled across the country. I demanded no, zoom, yes, and then it felt like it was never gonna happen. 00:01:58 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:01:58 Speaker 5: Well, so the reason that Dylan fled across the country, I started chasing her. 00:02:05 Speaker 3: Right, you weren't chasing her before. 00:02:07 Speaker 4: No, I just remembered to do it. Then. 00:02:09 Speaker 2: No, I was fine where I was, and then she started chasing me, so I took off. She gave me about a month's head start and a new pair of speakers. 00:02:19 Speaker 4: Race Yeah, yeah, okay, sure, yeah. 00:02:22 Speaker 5: I will be the first to say that a lot of my month head start was sort of spent circling Los Angeles because by the time, you know, I started, I remembered that Dylan doesn't live that far from me, and so I needed to sort of buy time. 00:02:41 Speaker 3: So at that point, you were Kansas around here. I was mid country. 00:02:46 Speaker 2: I was mid country and the flyover states that we usually don't talk about too much. But then and then I was like, I'm only a zoom. Bridger was like, I'm not going to zoom. 00:02:54 Speaker 3: You were going to zoom from Kansas. 00:02:56 Speaker 4: Well, here's the interesting thing is that with me chasing, isn't she kind of zooming? Oh? 00:03:02 Speaker 3: Interesting, she's zipping and zooming. 00:03:04 Speaker 4: She's zipping and zooming. 00:03:06 Speaker 3: How long do you think it would take to walk to Kansas? 00:03:09 Speaker 4: Truly? 00:03:10 Speaker 2: I walk pretty fast. I don't know, I feel like that. 00:03:18 Speaker 3: I mean, I can't be right historical like pioneers walking. It'll probably take six months. 00:03:26 Speaker 4: Does that seem right? 00:03:27 Speaker 3: Well? 00:03:28 Speaker 5: If okay, let's say I'm walking but not stopping at any. 00:03:33 Speaker 2: Point, you're going to want to stop it and go to Disneyland. 00:03:36 Speaker 4: I'm gonna want to see if you're going south, yeah, out of the way. Yeah yeah, You're also going to want to stop in Disney World just to compare the experiences. 00:03:47 Speaker 5: You don't want to wait too long, of course. I think it would take I think it would take a while. I think, Uh, what I think is a brilliant idea for a TV show. So if your listeners could right now promise not. 00:04:02 Speaker 4: To steal it, okay, a pretty loyal bunch. Okay, wonderful. 00:04:07 Speaker 5: So this is just between us and all of your listeners. Okay, it should be a dating show. 00:04:15 Speaker 4: It's called Lady in the tramp. Here's what happens. 00:04:19 Speaker 5: You pair up two people who have never met on either coast. They both have one side of the longest noodle, and then they walk to each other and then wherever they kiss, that's where they have their first date. 00:04:38 Speaker 3: That is a perfect idea. I don't see anything wrong with it. 00:04:41 Speaker 2: Up is I hang out with Broth. They so much that I was like, oh the Dag Show. I was like, well, I will say that hasn't changed a bit. 00:04:51 Speaker 5: I'm not a particularly inventive person. So the day I had an idea, I told everyone and can. 00:05:01 Speaker 2: My big idea is Macy's Day Parade horror movie. 00:05:04 Speaker 3: Oh and what happens there? 00:05:05 Speaker 2: The balloons come alive. 00:05:09 Speaker 3: That is actually so scary and the versions. 00:05:14 Speaker 2: Oh I don't know, I've gotten that part in my mind is actually the night before, Like I don't know. 00:05:18 Speaker 4: It's actually, Oh that's spookier. Yeah. 00:05:20 Speaker 2: The warehouse you know what can I pitch? 00:05:22 Speaker 4: Can I pitch on it? 00:05:23 Speaker 5: The only safe place from the uh from the floats, Kyle is no inside, It's inside the Macy's. And you have to go shopping with your mom. Oh shit, and she has so many coupons that's. 00:05:38 Speaker 3: Not I was going to say the bottom of the ocean, like it's a race to the bottom of the ocean where the. 00:05:42 Speaker 2: Balloons can't times balloon is alive. 00:05:44 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I feel like that would be the only safe place from a balloon. 00:05:49 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:05:49 Speaker 3: Maybe a place with a lot of sharp objects. 00:05:52 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:05:53 Speaker 3: So you're just saying there's like a protective aura over the Macy's that doesn't allow the balloons in. 00:05:58 Speaker 5: I mean, we've had years of Macy's Thanksgiving Day parades. Have you ever seen the balloons go into Macy's. 00:06:04 Speaker 4: Have you ever seen them? 00:06:05 Speaker 3: Not? 00:06:09 Speaker 4: Okay, the wind moves Charlie Brown's face towards the Macy's and he makes the active decision not to go. 00:06:21 Speaker 3: Have you have either of you ever been to the Macy's Day parade? 00:06:24 Speaker 2: Yes you have, Yes, Yes, I was also thinking about I've also watched it on TV. 00:06:28 Speaker 3: Well, have you ever watched the parade on television? 00:06:33 Speaker 2: And I've been so jealous of everyone on the float because I wasn't. 00:06:37 Speaker 3: But you've been there live in person. 00:06:38 Speaker 2: I think as a little kid, I was taking their one time probably and I don't remember that at all, but I know it happened. But yeah, I just like, that's the most famous you can be to me as being like somebody on the float from like a Broadway show. 00:06:50 Speaker 4: That is. 00:06:50 Speaker 3: I mean, I think a pretty high level of fame Santa Claus gets to do it. Yeaeah, he's really famous. He's fairly famous. 00:06:58 Speaker 4: Santa Claus is huge. So famous? 00:07:01 Speaker 3: Do you think Santa Claus is the most famous man alive? 00:07:06 Speaker 4: A lot? 00:07:07 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I was ruminating as soon as you said it. 00:07:13 Speaker 4: I think he's certainly up there. Okay, who's number two? Warren Buffett? 00:07:17 Speaker 3: Interesting Santa Claus type. 00:07:20 Speaker 2: Yeah, he is in the like he is in the Santa Claus category of man. 00:07:24 Speaker 3: Yeah, just being like old and has white hair. Yeah, and a lot of money. 00:07:29 Speaker 5: A lot of money Santa. No one talks about how rich Santa is. 00:07:33 Speaker 2: You have to spend money to make money exactly. That's my take on Santa Claus. 00:07:42 Speaker 3: What money is Santa Claus spend everything? Said, he has his own economy. He doesn't use any world currency, that's true. True, he kind of has his own labor force. 00:07:53 Speaker 4: Okay, I have another idea. 00:07:55 Speaker 5: Okay, it's that uh, Santa and Willy Wonka should have should arm wrestle and then whoever loses has to give their workers healthcare. 00:08:06 Speaker 4: Who do you? 00:08:07 Speaker 3: I feel like Santa Claus definitely has the bulk, like he. 00:08:10 Speaker 2: Has the bulk. 00:08:11 Speaker 4: But Willy Wonka. 00:08:13 Speaker 5: Remember when he did the summersal and and you because you were like, oh, feeble man, and then and then. 00:08:19 Speaker 4: He's surprised me. Right, he's sneaky, He's a snake. Yeah, exactly. 00:08:23 Speaker 5: That's the thing about arm wrestling Willy Wonka is that you don't need just physical strength, you need you need to be wiley. 00:08:33 Speaker 3: Now are we talking about Wilder Depp or Chalo May? Oh, don't forget Schala. May's got an upcoming Wonka something other, but nobody knows what's going on. 00:08:47 Speaker 4: It's a dream he had that he's gonna announce. 00:08:52 Speaker 3: I feel like Wilder is the strongest Willy. 00:08:55 Speaker 4: W Yeah, I am most scared of him. 00:08:59 Speaker 2: I think. 00:08:59 Speaker 4: I think from a psychological standpoint, like where I think that Johnny Depp wants me to be scared. So I'm a little bit like you were trying too. 00:09:09 Speaker 2: Hard, you know, to come to you. 00:09:11 Speaker 4: Exactly. Yeah, it's the difference. 00:09:14 Speaker 5: It's the difference between It's the difference between Boo and. 00:09:19 Speaker 2: Boo Yeah, and he is a ghost in that movie. 00:09:23 Speaker 3: Yeah, what you're saying, Willy Wanka is a ghost in the movie. Yeah, he has the factory. 00:09:31 Speaker 2: Didn't make sense. He's wearing a lot of white makeup. 00:09:32 Speaker 3: It makes sense. And you never see him outside of the factory. 00:09:36 Speaker 4: Really. 00:09:37 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just kids, just kids see ghosts. 00:09:40 Speaker 3: He's trapped there, and that's what you know. Everyone's made the observation at this point that he kills all the kids, but now it makes perfect sense. He wants their ghosts to remain there. 00:09:49 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:09:50 Speaker 3: Wow, fascinating take this is This is like maybe the first new Willy Wonka take that has been made in the last fifty years. 00:09:58 Speaker 2: He's harvesting member, They're got his little. 00:10:01 Speaker 3: Ghost at Orphans, he's adopting. He's adopting eight new children who are all spirits that drowned in his chocolate. That makes sense to me. I don't know, now, did you two come here together or separately? 00:10:16 Speaker 2: Separately? 00:10:17 Speaker 4: Separately? 00:10:18 Speaker 3: You're no longer on speaking terms outside of podcast. 00:10:21 Speaker 2: Aren't kidding me? No, you can cut it with a knife. 00:10:26 Speaker 5: I actually can't hear Dylan's voice anymore. I can't hear whatever sound wave that is, so I just have to kind of hope for the best. 00:10:36 Speaker 4: When I listen to this episode. 00:10:37 Speaker 2: Only of my mom have a relationship outside of me. 00:10:39 Speaker 3: Ye? 00:10:40 Speaker 4: Is that true? 00:10:41 Speaker 2: They talk and I don't know about it. Yeah. 00:10:42 Speaker 4: One time I called her at five am because I needed advice. 00:10:45 Speaker 3: How long have you two known each other? 00:10:48 Speaker 2: Six years? 00:10:48 Speaker 4: Six years? 00:10:49 Speaker 3: So how did you become friends with Dylan's mom? 00:10:53 Speaker 2: I don't know when did that happen? 00:10:55 Speaker 3: Like if you had been like childhood friends, I could see, but it feels like you've done this entirely independently. 00:11:01 Speaker 1: Bor. 00:11:01 Speaker 5: Yes, I think it was that Dylan said, my mom is nice, and then I said, give me her number. 00:11:10 Speaker 4: Yeah, you were like kind of a mom matchmaker. 00:11:13 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:11:13 Speaker 2: Oh, she took us out to dinner and then I guess you guys hit it off. 00:11:15 Speaker 4: Yeah, we really hit it off at dinner, but we hit it off before then. 00:11:18 Speaker 2: Okay. 00:11:18 Speaker 3: Yeah, and she gave you her number. 00:11:20 Speaker 4: Yes, Yeah, we do have a texting really sometimes we discussed Dylan. 00:11:26 Speaker 3: And what outside of I mean that to me, is the only thing you would discuss with her mom? 00:11:30 Speaker 5: Are you discussed No, it's mostly just an independent friendship. 00:11:34 Speaker 4: That's incredible. So what are you chatting about? 00:11:38 Speaker 5: We're chatting about anything, Bridger chatting about life. 00:11:41 Speaker 2: Terence, She's gonna listen to this, she's better. 00:11:44 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm slowly collecting all of my guests moms as listeners. 00:11:48 Speaker 4: That's my plan. 00:11:49 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how we make our money on our Patreon. 00:11:51 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just both of your parents are listening to the show and pay. 00:11:57 Speaker 4: My mom won't pay for it. 00:12:00 Speaker 2: Blame her, Yeah, my mom, what's she gonna hear? 00:12:02 Speaker 1: I know. 00:12:03 Speaker 5: That's the thing my mom said to me. She was like, oh, yeah, how's your podcast going? And I was like, do you want to subscribe? And she was like five dollars a month? No, thank you, And then she said, just summarize it. 00:12:17 Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't expect my mom to pay for my podcast. Now, your friends with her mom? Are you friends with either of birth I've never met them yet. Oh interesting, they're playing cool. 00:12:27 Speaker 4: Have you met them in person? 00:12:28 Speaker 3: No? 00:12:28 Speaker 2: I mean we've all each other on Twitter? 00:12:30 Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, my mom. My mom really loves Dylan. 00:12:33 Speaker 5: My mom is like kind of she is very funny, and she's she can be so mean, but because she's funny, it's. 00:12:43 Speaker 4: Correct, rights the right way. It's the right way to be mean. What is she trolling you online? 00:12:50 Speaker 2: No, No, she thinks I'm funny. She likes my tweets. Oh yeah, sometimes we both think Brody's annoying. 00:12:55 Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, so that's kind of what that's kind of what that is. 00:13:00 Speaker 3: But she has no interest in talking to you on the phone or texting. 00:13:02 Speaker 2: No, I'll meet her. We'll meet up. 00:13:04 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean you guys will hit it off here. I think he'll really want her approval. 00:13:07 Speaker 2: I talk to her down on the phone. 00:13:09 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, okay, here's a turn. 00:13:13 Speaker 4: How did this happen? 00:13:14 Speaker 2: I needed medical advice. 00:13:15 Speaker 4: She's just learning. My mom has no idea. 00:13:21 Speaker 3: Dylan gets really nervous. It's like I have to say something. I talked to her dad on the phone all the time. 00:13:29 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is the first he's hearing of it. He listens to all of our pooms. 00:13:32 Speaker 3: So that's that woman who's been calling me. 00:13:35 Speaker 2: I answers. 00:13:36 Speaker 4: Yeah, she leaves long voicemails. Actually the answering machine filled up. Yeah. 00:13:42 Speaker 2: I'm still talking to him on the phone. 00:13:43 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's why it's impossible to get a hold of you, by the way, because. 00:13:48 Speaker 2: I'm talking to your dad on Yeah. 00:13:50 Speaker 3: Yeah, but have you actually talked to him on the phone. 00:13:54 Speaker 2: Yeah, because he gave me medical advice. Oh he's a doctor. I need a fret. 00:14:00 Speaker 3: I need a friend with a doctor parent who can prescribe me things. When it's just like a small prescription or something, we may have to talk off. 00:14:08 Speaker 4: Yeah, we might have to talk off you. 00:14:09 Speaker 3: Sometimes there's like a pill you need that you don't want to wait to go to the doctor, and then you have somebody's parent write it in. 00:14:17 Speaker 4: It's such a mess. 00:14:18 Speaker 2: You have to like, if you know what you need, you should be able to just have it. 00:14:21 Speaker 3: Right, unless it's like oxycotton. 00:14:24 Speaker 2: If you're like I need like to go to like doctor house for like a mystery. But if you're like, I know I have a sinus infection. Yes, I don't need you to tell me what I know. 00:14:31 Speaker 3: I'm not wanting to abuse this thing exactly. Well, we've got to recall the medical system. That's why we're here. 00:14:41 Speaker 5: Oh I have an idea for that. I don't, But I don't think that you should have to dial more than one phone number to get medication. Like you shouldn't have to call someone for like prior authorization. 00:14:56 Speaker 4: You shouldn't have to call insurance. 00:14:58 Speaker 2: I have an idea for a restaurant. Oh, it's called Samplers. 00:15:02 Speaker 4: Oh I like this. 00:15:03 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a chain restaurant, and it would be like a bite of everything, like sometimes you just want watch You're like, I don't want like a whole plate of Brussels sprouts, I want like two of them. 00:15:13 Speaker 5: Dylan invent us going out with friends, invent splitting something. 00:15:21 Speaker 4: Instead. 00:15:22 Speaker 3: She's thought of the worst business model of all time a restaurant, But immediately the overhead would because it'd be throwing away so much. 00:15:31 Speaker 4: Thank god, passion, passion, Thank god. It's easy to start a restaurant business. 00:15:37 Speaker 2: I have the name and the comes. 00:15:40 Speaker 4: Sampler is the name Handlers. 00:15:45 Speaker 3: No one's going to Samplers, still going to samp Dylan, that sounds what's on the menu? 00:15:51 Speaker 2: I told you it's Brussels sprouts. 00:15:53 Speaker 4: It's like, it's just Brussels routs. 00:15:56 Speaker 3: How many Brussels sprouts are you regularly eating at a restaurant? 00:16:00 Speaker 2: Well, it's I think. I'm like, oh, one sounds great, but like I don't want more than two Brussels sprows. 00:16:04 Speaker 3: That's why it's usually an appetizer you order among friends. 00:16:07 Speaker 4: You and I always split brussels sproud. 00:16:09 Speaker 2: That's actually one time we ordered Brussels sprouts and food and we only ate the Brussels sprouts. 00:16:14 Speaker 6: Yeah, interesting, reverse, Samplers. No, that's just what Samplers is. What restaurant was this that Momed in atwater? Is Momad one of your listeners. 00:16:26 Speaker 3: The entire staff, Yeah, front, sand back. 00:16:29 Speaker 7: Jeremy Momed, okay, Jeremy mister or miss mister or miss moment, doctor Momad, doctor, thank you, doctor Momad. 00:16:41 Speaker 5: If you are listening, please return to the menu you had before you made change. 00:16:47 Speaker 4: Change that. 00:16:48 Speaker 3: There is nothing worse, nothing worse than ours. Just shut down the shut down the restaurant. 00:16:54 Speaker 4: The restaurant might as well open up, Samplers. 00:16:56 Speaker 3: Yes, the people are coming for that menu exactly, and if you change it, you are now the restaurant by name only. It makes no sense, exactly. 00:17:06 Speaker 5: I recently had a humiliating experience at that very restaurant with this exact situation. 00:17:12 Speaker 4: What happened? 00:17:13 Speaker 5: I wanted the duck with sweet potatoes. Okay, they took it off the menu. I was looking at the menu. I didn't see it on there. I could not believe it. I asked a server, where's the duck on this menu. You gave me the wrong menu and then she said, oh, yeah, we changed the menu. 00:17:36 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a rough situation. It's a rough time for restaurants. My favorite, well, my favorite breakfast restaurant, which is called what's the Bungalow restaurant? Silver Lake Bungalow. They had a brunch there that was unlike anything I've ever had before, and now they're no longer open for brunch, So Bowery Bungalow, I'm reaching out to you. We've got to read this is this is This podcast is becoming kind of a call in to restaurants where we just kind of make requests. Mezza, of course, I think I saw you two there. You two were kind of the spirit of that. 00:18:13 Speaker 2: Rest there all the time. It was reasonably priced, it was delicious. 00:18:16 Speaker 4: I mean, why do you think Dylan and I aren't on speaking terms anymore? 00:18:19 Speaker 3: Besides, you don't have the Mesa to return to we can't. Yeah, and it was spelled MHZH. 00:18:26 Speaker 5: I personally do love their social media presence, which is that once every eight months they'll post like a picture of an orange or something and then have like one hundred comments going Mesa, please come back. 00:18:41 Speaker 3: They must be planning on it pre pandemic. And this is so fascinating for the listener to just talk about restaurant news. But they were planning to expand, really yes to basically this neighborhood. I was so excited, and now look what's happened. They're nothing but a shell and an Instagram. 00:18:59 Speaker 2: Not a time where you can take right look at how you guys reacted to Samplers. 00:19:03 Speaker 3: There's risks and then there's horrible ideas. You're lucky that you brought it up here instead of like quietly pursuing it and working night and day before your big reveal. 00:19:14 Speaker 4: I mean, she's on Shark Tank after this. 00:19:17 Speaker 3: We're throwing water on these ideas immediately. 00:19:19 Speaker 2: And we were like, oh, it's an idea. It's called Chili's, and everybody laughed. 00:19:23 Speaker 3: No one would they think that's a great idea. 00:19:26 Speaker 4: So people would laugh because they'd be like, we already have a Chili's. Chili's. 00:19:31 Speaker 3: Well, actually, I think there's also a Chilies too. I think that's the Airport Chilies. So you couldn't even do that. 00:19:36 Speaker 2: What's about? Why is it called chili? Chili is? 00:19:38 Speaker 3: Also it feels like just a way of them. They're kind of signaling to you that it's gonna be worse, right, although. 00:19:46 Speaker 4: We're getting ahead of the story. 00:19:48 Speaker 3: But the confusing thing is it should be like Chili's less or Chili's because obviously at an airport it's less items on the menu and worse quality. So why are you acting like there's going to be more to the experience. 00:19:59 Speaker 2: I think they want to say like Chili's too. 00:20:04 Speaker 4: I think they should call it student Chili's, student Chike, like when a bumper sticker says student driver. 00:20:10 Speaker 3: Yeah. Like they're testing to become a real Chili Yeah. 00:20:13 Speaker 5: And these are all you know, these are all novices. 00:20:17 Speaker 4: Right right. 00:20:18 Speaker 3: But the sad thing, the tragedy there is we all know they'll never become a real Chili's. We all know they're just trapped there in the airport with the story. 00:20:26 Speaker 4: Thing, in a place where so many things take off, exactly one thing stayed grounded. 00:20:33 Speaker 2: It's a really good point that the reason the airplane pudodus are bad is that's made my students, well. 00:20:39 Speaker 3: Chili's aside, restaurants aside. There's something that else we have to talk about. You two, as we were talking about earlier, agreed to be on this podcast at some point in the past. Yes, And there were trials, there were tribulations, there was a lot of rough going getting here, and uh, let's. 00:20:57 Speaker 4: Just be honest. 00:20:58 Speaker 3: You showed up. You were standing at my front door. I was in the backyard, and you had agreed to be on. I said, no gifts, and I get a text we're here. I thought, why didn't they just come to the backyard, that's clearly where we're supposed to be. But I marched up front and I see you two standing there. The first thing I see is Dylan looking through the window and she turns around. 00:21:17 Speaker 4: And goes, oh my god. 00:21:20 Speaker 3: Ah. Then I see you're holding a bag. Yes, is this a gift for me? 00:21:26 Speaker 5: Bridget We know you said no gifts. Sure, however, we brought you a gift, okay, And would you like me to open it here on the show? 00:21:37 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess if you feel like you want to do that, you could you also, look, I preferred you didn't. But if you're going to, you're going. 00:21:46 Speaker 3: To don't tempt me. There's going to be an episode one day and I'm like, okay, I'm not going to open it, and then I'll just open in private, and it'll be my little secret. But maybe that'll be the last episode when we finally decide the podcast is over. I'm not going to reveal the final gift. It's just going to be someone's going to have to break into my house and kill me to find out what it was. 00:22:06 Speaker 2: We were talking on the way down about how you had the audacity to say that our show is a scam and that our show. 00:22:14 Speaker 3: What could you possibly be talking about? I was on your show? Yes, what did we lecture Hall? What was the thing we talked about? 00:22:25 Speaker 2: Toys? 00:22:26 Speaker 4: R US Haunted toys? You taught us about hunted haunted. 00:22:30 Speaker 3: Toys r US. Interesting? I remember coming up with a whole list of things. Must have been on us. 00:22:34 Speaker 4: You talked about a few things. 00:22:36 Speaker 3: Okay, well that's interesting, But we've got to look at this gift. 00:22:39 Speaker 4: Yes, it's in a nice little. 00:22:58 Speaker 3: Blue pin stripe bag to reach in. And I will say before I even get into it, I got a text from Brote last night saying I think it was simple, kind of mysterious. What is your size or what is your clothing? 00:23:11 Speaker 4: Sid? 00:23:12 Speaker 2: She didn't tell me she was going to do that, which was cool. 00:23:13 Speaker 3: Oh interesting, So you don't talk to each other. She may have told your mom. 00:23:18 Speaker 2: Oh, that's true, Karen. 00:23:19 Speaker 4: I told Karen to tell you if she gets a chance. 00:23:22 Speaker 3: I'm not being her either, slowly alienating everyone. 00:23:27 Speaker 2: Separate race from the other side of the country. 00:23:31 Speaker 4: That's why now you're just spinning in Kansas. 00:23:33 Speaker 3: Just constantly out of breath in Kansas. Okay, I'm going to reach in here. I'm seeing some sort of like cloth. Okay, Oh, so this is just like a nice shirt. What I've taken out here is just a nice like plaid shirt in my size small. It's from Target. I know that brand. I know the good Fellow brand, and so what's going on here? 00:24:02 Speaker 5: We thought it would be nice to get you a sensible button down. 00:24:07 Speaker 2: We agreed, no crazy colors. 00:24:09 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like brown and navy blue. 00:24:12 Speaker 4: You would say, yeah, it's it's definitely. It's leaning earth tone. 00:24:16 Speaker 3: It's I prefer an earth tone. I think I look best in an earth tone. A jewel tone I can work. I can't do like a neon pink. Sure, that's when I start to look real sick. Yeah, okay, so you agreed to get me a sensible top. 00:24:30 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's also a card. 00:24:32 Speaker 3: There's a card can't reaching back into the bag. Okay, not in an envelope, but it's just kind of loosely thrown in the bag. It's a card that says, has a little uh what is this? A French bulldog who's to know? 00:24:48 Speaker 4: Who's to know? 00:24:52 Speaker 3: Wearing a party hat that says, I say, you can never have too many naps in a weekend, chips in a bag, channels to serve, games to choose from, or hours to enjoy. However, You're like, what is this intro of a card? I've never seen anything like that? 00:25:04 Speaker 2: I even got moved to tears. Yeah, anything really affected me. 00:25:08 Speaker 5: That actually is a ts Eliot poem deleted. 00:25:16 Speaker 3: This is from the Wasteland. 00:25:17 Speaker 4: Yeah, sort of a deleted stanza from j Alfred Prufrock. 00:25:27 Speaker 3: Okay, and then I this, I will say that is the most baffling opening to a card I've ever seen. And it says bridge you're inside and you oh and here's the end of the poem, and you can never make too many wishes for a great guy to have a birthday. That's awesome right from the word, go hope. It's the best ever. Better to be over the heel than hundred and that was written by which one of you wrote this okay and an XO. 00:25:53 Speaker 4: D g G. 00:25:54 Speaker 3: This is one of the most fascinatingly written cards I have. I want to read the whole thing aloud one more. I'm just because this is someone's I don't know, maybe they're being paid by the word I say. You can never have too many naps in a weekend, chips in a bag, channels to serve, games to choose from, or hours to enjoy however you like. And you can never make too many wishes for a great guy to have a birthday. That's awesome right from the word go hope, it's the best ever. Imagine giving this to your boss. 00:26:23 Speaker 2: That person's in the hospital. 00:26:26 Speaker 3: This person the hospital tried. This person has absolutely was in the morgue and has moved on. 00:26:33 Speaker 5: Well, this person, this person, like an injured horse, was humanely put down. 00:26:41 Speaker 2: What are you talking about? Goes out to that person. 00:26:45 Speaker 3: I wonder what the meeting was like in the creation of this card. The whole team of adults got around, was like, it's got to be fifty lines, it's got. 00:26:54 Speaker 4: Just the picture. Is this a target product? This is also target product? God bless. I mean, that's so confusing. I love it. 00:27:06 Speaker 3: Okay, so I have my Sensible tops. 00:27:08 Speaker 4: I put it on. I think it might be too warm. It might be too warm. 00:27:10 Speaker 3: Let's take a picture after and I'll put it on, but I will be sweating non stop. I have a you know, I like a sensible shirt. I love it falls on its way. I think this episode releases in September, so we'll be about a month away from fall Los Angeles. Yes, why does fall really start in Los Angeles? 00:27:27 Speaker 4: I mean, if there are any seasons in Los Angeles. 00:27:30 Speaker 3: Maybe November. Yes, it feels. 00:27:33 Speaker 4: Yes, it's no. 00:27:34 Speaker 2: I just have to say that this episode will drop on the first. 00:27:37 Speaker 3: Day of fall, so September twenty first. 00:27:39 Speaker 4: Well, Google saying the twenty second. 00:27:42 Speaker 3: Second, they've got a they've got a set one day for the fall day. 00:27:49 Speaker 4: I mean, I can't dance around it every year. 00:27:51 Speaker 3: Isn't it usually like June twenty first, Yeah, April twenty first. I wonder if it's a leap here or something. These are all things that no cares about, and that's what's important. 00:28:02 Speaker 2: I can't live how far out you do these? 00:28:04 Speaker 3: Yeah, about three weeks in advance, and so we can just absolutely use computers to edit and make it, you know, rearrange words, this kind of thing, to really take things out of context. So yeah, these allies will do the first edit. Then there's a team of about ten editors who run an AI program. Once that's done and sent back to me, I redo my vocals, and then often the episode just gets deleted. 00:28:31 Speaker 2: When do you need us to sing? 00:28:33 Speaker 3: Should we all harmonize? 00:28:34 Speaker 1: Now? 00:28:35 Speaker 2: Yeah? 00:28:35 Speaker 3: Okay, match my pitch. We couldn't have done that on so I couldn't have. Now the listener's got a little taste of music. I've been wondering I'd like to just have instruments laying around that I can just doodle on while recording a podcast. 00:28:59 Speaker 4: Would that be another No. 00:29:00 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's about to lie. Bro's about to lie. 00:29:04 Speaker 5: I think you would be funny. I think you would be funny because you don't know as a listener, you don't know when you're going to get annoyed. 00:29:11 Speaker 2: I don't know what to do with my face when someone's playing music around me, Like, I don't know what to where. 00:29:15 Speaker 3: To look or like, what do you do at a concert? 00:29:17 Speaker 2: Oh that you look right at it? 00:29:19 Speaker 3: Okay, you know what I mean. But if somebody's like in a room. 00:29:22 Speaker 2: Yeah, they pick up a guitar. It's like, do I look at you like you're playing a concert? Like do you want my own divided attention? Like I know what to do. 00:29:29 Speaker 4: Either way, she's gonna start a mosh pit. 00:29:33 Speaker 3: That's the only thing she knows. 00:29:36 Speaker 4: And it's dangerous. 00:29:38 Speaker 3: I mean that is a good point though, Like if you're at someone's home and they're playing an instrument, you're like, do they want full attention or do they want to be just adding to the ambiance? 00:29:46 Speaker 2: I don't know, and they don't say. 00:29:47 Speaker 3: And no one ever reveals, no, no one ever. I think you've just got to be upfront as the musician. Everyone look at me, yeah, or everyone go about your business. Do either of you play an instrument? 00:29:58 Speaker 4: I play? I play piano. 00:30:00 Speaker 5: Oh well, okay, so I play piano just well enough that I could play for you, but not well enough that you'll necessarily enjoy it. 00:30:13 Speaker 3: So you're saying, my standards are pretty low. I don't expect much. 00:30:17 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, you don't expect much, but it will exceed your expectation by just a little bit. 00:30:24 Speaker 3: Could you just play a song? If I just said, will you play this for me? 00:30:29 Speaker 4: Maybe, Wow, it would be slow. 00:30:32 Speaker 3: That's still impressive. So you're just playing by ear? 00:30:35 Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, now. 00:30:37 Speaker 3: I'm starting to wonder, Dylan, have you ever seen this happen? 00:30:40 Speaker 2: I think probably pretty good on piano. 00:30:42 Speaker 4: Okay, where did you learn? 00:30:44 Speaker 5: I learned back in Cincinnati? Okay, I've been I took piano lessons when I was a child, right until I was about sixteen, Okay, and then we had this pandemic and so I picked it back up. 00:31:00 Speaker 3: The story you just told makes it sound like you're about seventeen years old. 00:31:07 Speaker 5: Well, I haven't revealed my age. I don't think we've ever talked about my age. Why do you think Dylan and I had to come together? I need a license driver in the car with me. 00:31:19 Speaker 3: Where do you think my hint? Yeah, laying these breadcrumbs. 00:31:25 Speaker 2: Our podcast is like a big sister program. 00:31:27 Speaker 4: Yeah. Our podcast is technically Dylan's community service. 00:31:33 Speaker 2: I've made some mistakes. 00:31:35 Speaker 3: Okay, So Brosie, you play piano. Dylan played it. There was kind of a resounding silence from. 00:31:43 Speaker 2: Play a song on guitar from a movie that I was in where I learned a guitar song you had to learn I had to learn a song on a guitar for a movie. 00:31:51 Speaker 3: But you hadn't learned you hadn't played guitar before. No, how was that that feels? 00:31:56 Speaker 2: It was like it was and I was playing like a rock, like a famous rock music. So I had to look like I knew what I was doing. Oh, it's the movie. 00:32:04 Speaker 3: It's called her Smell, Her Smell. I was gonna say, it's smell that smell. That's right. So you had to learn to actually. 00:32:11 Speaker 2: Yeah, I had to learned one song and it was hard. 00:32:13 Speaker 3: Does anyone in the production heard of Hollywood Magic? 00:32:16 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think you see much of me playing Tried. 00:32:22 Speaker 4: Magic. 00:32:23 Speaker 2: The track in the movie is like the track I learned it too, Like, I don't think they ended up using anything, Okay. 00:32:27 Speaker 3: But it looks close enough. Looks like you're forming chords. 00:32:30 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're like from a certain angle right, forming chords with my fingers. 00:32:35 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think I think you picked it up. 00:32:38 Speaker 2: Well, thank you. 00:32:39 Speaker 4: It's a hard instrument to just pick up, thank you. 00:32:42 Speaker 3: It hurts, It really hurts your fingers. 00:32:44 Speaker 4: It's the most painful instrument. 00:32:45 Speaker 2: Yeah, is that true? 00:32:47 Speaker 4: Probably? 00:32:48 Speaker 3: Probably no other instrument really grinds your fingers. 00:32:52 Speaker 5: That way or no, none other, no other instrument sort of promises that your skin will hardened. 00:32:59 Speaker 2: They say, the most painful instrument is the pen. 00:33:02 Speaker 4: Wow. And you know what, you can form a callous from Dylan Glumless ladies and gentlemen. 00:33:10 Speaker 2: You form a callous in your mind? 00:33:12 Speaker 3: What I'm now with a violin? Do you form a callus under your chin? 00:33:17 Speaker 1: Oh? 00:33:17 Speaker 3: No, you just grow a beard, some weird skin beard. That's just kind of falling. I need to keep a closer eye on the violinists in my life and see if there. 00:33:29 Speaker 4: Is that a good prank to put a little bit of brokene on. 00:33:32 Speaker 3: The bottom of someone's chin every night. 00:33:36 Speaker 2: Violin Branks. 00:33:42 Speaker 3: Well, let's return to the shirt for a minute. I mean, what was the conversation around this, what like, what was the planning? 00:33:48 Speaker 2: We were like, oh, we have to get Britter a gift, and Brothery was like, should we get on my shirt? And I was like yeah, and She's like I'll go do it. 00:33:56 Speaker 4: That's it, And then I said start running. 00:34:03 Speaker 3: Okay, well shut wise. When you tour shirt shopping for yourselves, what are you looking for? 00:34:08 Speaker 4: Oh? 00:34:08 Speaker 2: I never find it. I'll tell you that. 00:34:09 Speaker 3: That's the thing, shopping, shopping shopping. 00:34:13 Speaker 2: I don't know, you just like know it when you see it, you know what I mean, and then you don't feel it. Yeah. 00:34:18 Speaker 5: I will look online and sort of envision myself in the shirt. 00:34:25 Speaker 4: Then I will go to the store try it on. 00:34:27 Speaker 5: It doesn't look anything like I had envisioned, and then you know, I probably buy it, even though you're disappointed. 00:34:37 Speaker 4: Even though I'm because I you know, I paid the parking fee. 00:34:44 Speaker 2: Trying on clothes is crazy because you're like, I know what this shape is, I know what I am, and then they don't ever meet the way you think they're. 00:34:49 Speaker 3: Going, not in a million years, No, And it's always an environment that's so foreign to your real life experience. You're like, I don't know if if this really works for my reality exactly exactly. 00:35:02 Speaker 4: And sometimes you think, like what if I try something fun? But I'll tell you. I'll tell you something. 00:35:07 Speaker 5: I've never met a fun shirt that isn't just wearing me instead of me wearing it. 00:35:13 Speaker 4: Yeah, you allow the shirts to wear you. I sort of wrapped my skin around them. A grateful dead shirt right now, that's an shirt, thank you. It feels like a like a fun choice this was a fun choice. 00:35:25 Speaker 5: And I got it somewhere on Melrose and I talked to the store owner. He has, you know, these vinted shirts with all these bands on them, and he was he was so lovely, and I was like, I should buy this. And it was much more money than I had expected. 00:35:45 Speaker 3: But I think you have to reveal how much you paid for it. 00:35:48 Speaker 4: Just do it. I paid one hundred dollars. 00:35:52 Speaker 3: That's a lot of money for that. 00:35:54 Speaker 2: I think say more than that, to be honest. I used to work at a vintage store. Oh, I used to work at Wasteland. 00:35:59 Speaker 3: Oh, Wasteland. Where's Wasteland? 00:36:01 Speaker 2: Okay, the one I worked at it is gone, not because. 00:36:03 Speaker 3: Of me, because of their pricing, because of me. 00:36:07 Speaker 2: The one, the main one is on Melrose, and it's like a thing where you bring your clothes in and then you look through them and then you buy. 00:36:12 Speaker 3: How those people that follow Exchange or that other place that I. 00:36:17 Speaker 2: Hate Crossroads, Yes, yes, yes, it's a whole. 00:36:20 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:36:21 Speaker 2: So I was the person that Peo will get mad at and they'd be like, this is a nice shirt. 00:36:24 Speaker 4: I'm so fascinated. 00:36:25 Speaker 3: Yeah, because that is that's got to be such a contentious position to be. 00:36:28 Speaker 2: It's very emotional because people feel rejected and they feel like you don't like them. 00:36:32 Speaker 3: The sting of a place not buying your clothes, there's nothing like it. And you've been floating around the store like you want to buy something for forty five minutes. 00:36:38 Speaker 4: You don't. 00:36:39 Speaker 3: You're not really when you When I take my clothes the first time to one of these places, I'm not planning to buy anything. I'm planning to get the credit yea or return later. So I have a lot of waste of time. And then when they reject the clothes, I'm I wouldn't say furious, I'm extremely depressed. 00:36:54 Speaker 2: It hurts. It hurts because you see a way it could go and it didn't go that way. 00:36:57 Speaker 4: Well, here's the thing, here's the this is why I think. 00:37:01 Speaker 5: When I was in this store, I did think to myself, this man's self confidence is worth one hundred dollars. 00:37:08 Speaker 3: You were concerned about the store owners confidence? 00:37:11 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean we had talked for like seven minutes, which is so long. That's such a long conversation old sales trick and look it got me and here I am wearing the shirt. 00:37:25 Speaker 4: Well it's a good shirt. I mean my shirt. Now we know it's a valuable shirt. 00:37:29 Speaker 3: It's very valuable. I wonder if you tried reselling it what you'd get, Dylan, do you have any idea. 00:37:33 Speaker 2: You'd get so reselling you have to sell a lot of it. You don't get that much money for each individual thing, because it's like thirty percent or something. 00:37:40 Speaker 4: Top right. 00:37:41 Speaker 2: I just remembered I got in trouble one time because I bought two bonnets from a woman because I thought that was so funny. I was like, We're gonna want these bonnets, and my boss was like, we don't. We're not gonna be able to sell these bonnets. 00:37:56 Speaker 5: Well, okay, just now, when you said you have to sell a lot of it, I thought you meant like a large percentage of this. 00:38:04 Speaker 3: You couldn't cut it off and try to sell it piece. 00:38:06 Speaker 2: I think you if you absolutely crushed it, you would get like fifteen dollars. 00:38:10 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna say fourteen. 00:38:11 Speaker 3: Maybe not that it's a bad shirt, but it's just these places are yeah, scam. 00:38:16 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, yeah, a little better than throwing it in the trush. 00:38:19 Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, Have you two sold clothes to these places before? 00:38:23 Speaker 6: Well? 00:38:24 Speaker 2: I would sell it when I worked there, so I would that's how you make a lot of money. 00:38:27 Speaker 3: Oh wait, how did that work? So did you put like the disguise. 00:38:32 Speaker 4: On Dylan is admitting to em Best some sort of. 00:38:37 Speaker 2: Somebody else that worked there would buy it in and they'd be like, this is one hundred dollars, I mean so much money, and yeah, oh my god. Yeah, it would all go back into the store because I wasn't working, I was just standing there. So then I would I knew every single so like, oh my god. And then sometimes I would buy things in that I wanted, so I would price them really low. 00:38:58 Speaker 3: A few minutes ago, you said they didn't shut down because of you, and yes they did. They absolutely shut down because I. 00:39:08 Speaker 2: Was told I wasn't allowed to pick the music anymore after some weird choices. 00:39:12 Speaker 3: How long did you work there? 00:39:13 Speaker 4: Not long? 00:39:14 Speaker 2: I think like four months? Five months? 00:39:18 Speaker 4: Star employee. 00:39:20 Speaker 3: Did you get fired or quit? 00:39:21 Speaker 2: I quit? 00:39:22 Speaker 4: Okay, well at least you went out on. 00:39:23 Speaker 2: Your Yeah, I stopped wanting to go. 00:39:26 Speaker 4: That is crazy. Wait what was your job after that? 00:39:31 Speaker 2: That was when I got a TV show, I got started acting. My job before I worked at a restaurant and then that okay, and then I moved back to Oh. Then I moved back to New York to be an internet of fashion magazine. 00:39:40 Speaker 4: Oh. 00:39:40 Speaker 3: It was a little bit of knowledge. It built from stealing money. 00:39:45 Speaker 5: Wait, I remember you had some you had like an insane sort of editorial post or something like that. 00:39:53 Speaker 2: I got to interview the guy guy from the Voice. Oh my god, I don't remember his name, but he made all of his videos in black and and that was the only thing I can think to ask him. I was like, that's an interesting choice. 00:40:05 Speaker 4: It's like, thanks, I remember you asking like stranger questions though. 00:40:10 Speaker 2: Oh I asked one. I got in trouble because I was one of them if they'd ever had lice? I was trying to have fun. 00:40:16 Speaker 3: That's a perfectly fair question. Have you, like a lot of people I know, had lice as kids or whatever? 00:40:21 Speaker 2: Yes, If it's no, you wouldn't get mad, you know what I mean. 00:40:26 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, obviously you had it multiple times everyone in that class. 00:40:31 Speaker 4: Yeah. 00:40:32 Speaker 5: Look, as the kids would say, you're telling on yourself. 00:40:36 Speaker 2: You're telling on yourself. 00:40:37 Speaker 3: Have either of you ever had lice? 00:40:39 Speaker 4: Oh? Yeah, yeah, we've talked about both. Have had lies? 00:40:40 Speaker 3: Yeah? 00:40:41 Speaker 4: Yeah, what age I had it when I was like six. Okay, that's pretty young. 00:40:47 Speaker 2: I was older than that. 00:40:48 Speaker 5: But then I got it again when I was like twenty because I was living. I spent a brief period of my life, only a few months living in a monastery. 00:41:02 Speaker 4: Yeah, got a lot of shared bet a lot of shared things. Yeah, exactly. Wow. So you had lice twice still and you've had it. 00:41:09 Speaker 2: We've had it more, definitely more than once. Has lice that much? 00:41:16 Speaker 4: Give us five dollars. 00:41:18 Speaker 2: Absolute joy of the comb and seeing the lights on the comb in a parallel Very. 00:41:23 Speaker 4: Sad, Oh my god, it is very sad. I will say though. 00:41:27 Speaker 5: When I was in the monastery and I saw and my head was, you know, itching quite a bit, and I looked down at my pillow, I saw something crawling, and I just I very slowly google search close up of lice, even though I knew it was that, I was just you know, I was just hoping, why close up? 00:41:56 Speaker 4: Well, because I looked pretty close because I was pretty close. 00:41:59 Speaker 3: To your life her scope, you're enhanced. 00:42:05 Speaker 5: Oh, this lice was huge. So I just had the one lice. That's gorgeous. 00:42:14 Speaker 3: I'm writing that book. Yeah, everyone get out of my way. I'm writing the book. 00:42:17 Speaker 2: Get this person that goes right to. 00:42:22 Speaker 3: The card writer will absolutely be writing The Lonely Lous under the name Bridger Winder. Now I'm curious what the treatment is for lice. Is it just shampoo? 00:42:32 Speaker 2: It's a shampoo and it's your mom getting in there with a comb. 00:42:35 Speaker 3: Okay, came in there, just like scraping your scalps. 00:42:38 Speaker 2: It's like a little comb that is like smaller than lice. So the lights get stuck in it. 00:42:42 Speaker 3: Oh, a little like lobster trap. 00:42:45 Speaker 2: You see them in there? 00:42:46 Speaker 4: Well have you not heard my single smaller than light. 00:42:50 Speaker 2: Lobster trap? 00:42:57 Speaker 3: Wow, that's fascinating. Yeah, I remember the lice. Every year they would come into like your class, and the volunteers would kind of they had like almost like chopsticks or something. 00:43:07 Speaker 4: Do you remember this in front of everyone? 00:43:09 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was that. 00:43:14 Speaker 5: It was that and like the scoliosis exam. Oh yeah, it was just you know, it was just kind of wholesale. We cattle call these children in, We check them in right. 00:43:28 Speaker 3: In front of each other. So if something, if it is revealed, the they just have the shame of the. 00:43:34 Speaker 5: Crowd and exactly you know what I think would be funny if if there was like a group of lice that like came into a Zoom classroom and then it would. 00:43:45 Speaker 3: Be like, oh, we had a lice outbreak, right, that's they were like kind of uh, surfing the waves of the web. 00:43:52 Speaker 2: Yes, kind of cyber licey hundred boxes coming. 00:43:57 Speaker 4: And they're constantly moving around. 00:44:00 Speaker 3: You were saying, each loose has its own zoom windows. 00:44:03 Speaker 2: In my mind, they have a bunch of little windows. 00:44:04 Speaker 4: Yeah, and they are just moving. 00:44:07 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're concert all over one kid's head. 00:44:16 Speaker 4: And that's you. Everyone's moving their box away from that kid. 00:44:21 Speaker 3: I was just imagining maybe something a little more frightening of like all the kids are on Zoom school and let's say Charlie has light and then a few minutes later another kid has lice, and then it's like, how is it passing through the computer? Kind of like it's almost like a horror movie for children. Yes, I guess that's not that wouldn't be that profitable, but that, Uh. 00:44:46 Speaker 4: What sare your kids? 00:44:50 Speaker 3: Interesting? And Dylan, do you remember where you got your life? 00:44:53 Speaker 2: No? 00:44:54 Speaker 4: Oh? 00:44:54 Speaker 3: Interesting? That person got away with murder? Have you ever seen hair fairies in Los Angeles? It's like a franchise of Lice's Care and they call it hair Fairies, which is is that like slang for lice? 00:45:07 Speaker 2: I was gonna say the lice are the hair fairies. 00:45:09 Speaker 4: But yeah, yeah, that's what I was. 00:45:11 Speaker 3: It's not a fun thing to think about. But I guess maybe you're like, that's how you soften the blow for kids. It's like you have little fairies eating your scalp. 00:45:19 Speaker 4: Hair Fairies is actually a slur for lice. Moved cast that term. Yeah, you can't call them that. 00:45:27 Speaker 3: That business is in a lot of trouble. They've dug their heels in. They're expanding at that that hateful name. Yeah, HEADLCE. I never had it. I remember the smell of the shampoo when kids would get it. 00:45:40 Speaker 4: Yeah, it was strong. The big brand was called like Nicks, Nicks or Rid, Yes, yeah, those two were big, right, or hair Fairies. 00:45:50 Speaker 3: Let's not leave out the hair fairies. 00:45:52 Speaker 2: Or the H word. Hair is the word. 00:45:56 Speaker 3: That's okay? Well what should I I mean? Is there anything else we should say about this shirt? 00:46:06 Speaker 2: It's pretty kind of dryer? 00:46:07 Speaker 5: Yeah hoping this you know you could you could wear it out to dinner with some friends. 00:46:13 Speaker 3: I'm gonna feel a little. Just when I wear it, I'm gonna I'm gonna feel like I got this on my podcast. 00:46:20 Speaker 4: So then you have a conversation piece. 00:46:24 Speaker 3: I feel like the shirt's going to actually look good. I feel like this is so too a nice looking shirt, a nice fall almost like cutting wood shirt. 00:46:34 Speaker 5: Can I tell you I spent a few minutes picturing you in various shirts like I did some I did some earnest chopping for you. 00:46:44 Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like my mom bought me a birthday present, like a nice and I appreciated you asking my size. There was a period I went through when my grandma would always buy me a medium sized shirt. I think because she felt bad that I was not a medium sized person and was like trying to boost my self confidence, but only making my self confidence was just going through the floor because I was thinking, I'm not a medium sized person. So once we all embraced that I was small, my clothing dos never fit better. 00:47:13 Speaker 4: Exactly, You've got to embrace the side. 00:47:15 Speaker 3: You've got to embrace. That's our clothes work. 00:47:17 Speaker 4: That's how clothes work. That's just the function of them. 00:47:22 Speaker 3: And but before we move off of clothing, just to give the let's try to give the listener some help, Dylan, is there any tips you can recommend when someone takes their garbage bag of clothing to one of these stores? How do we get the most for our money? 00:47:35 Speaker 2: Okay, well, first of all, it's not personal. It's like sometimes your boss will tell you you're not allowed to buy any more bonus, you're not allowed. 00:47:43 Speaker 3: We do need to circle back to Bondy. 00:47:45 Speaker 2: How funny is that? 00:47:46 Speaker 4: That's really funny? 00:47:46 Speaker 3: What were they like a Gingham material? 00:47:49 Speaker 2: Yeah, they were like two hats that you tie around your chin. That's so silly. And they were there whimsy. We can't have any whimsy in the door. 00:48:00 Speaker 5: Like the W in Wasteland stands for Wednesday, not anymore it's Eastland because it closed because no. 00:48:09 Speaker 2: So like sometimes you're not allowed to buy any men's shirts. So it's not that you don't have a nice men's shirt, they're not allowed to buy it. So think ahead. They'd be like what are they buying? They have all these like they're going to buy for fall right now? Oh, like what I do fall in June? Maybe I don't know. There's a thing in the back that says it. Yeah, where they're like this is the code for the back way to change it because this girl got fired and then you know what I mean. So they're like, and also you're you know, we're looking for women's jeans, right, you can ask them what are you looking for? 00:48:42 Speaker 4: Is call ahead? 00:48:43 Speaker 2: Yes, you ask them what are you looking for? 00:48:45 Speaker 4: Oh? 00:48:45 Speaker 1: This is it? 00:48:45 Speaker 3: But here's something that worries me. You call ahead, you get all this information, you have a strategy, You go in and they still don't buy it, then you're burning the store down. 00:48:53 Speaker 4: I would, Yeah, I would. 00:48:54 Speaker 3: Drive my car through the store because I feel like the feeling I have when I go without a plan, I still feel terrible. 00:49:02 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, look I feel bad. I did that in New York and they only bought one of my things, and I was like, shit, that's hurt. Yeah. 00:49:08 Speaker 3: Do you know what I hate is when they buy one thing and they're like, but we can still take the rest of this. I'm like, no, you can't. Yeah, you're not kidding this. Yeah, no, I. 00:49:18 Speaker 4: Know what this is worth. I'll go somewhere that appreciates that number. 00:49:23 Speaker 3: I'll find someone who cares about me. Okay, well, those are some interesting enough tips. I've recently become obsessed with something called sway, have you heard of this place in Los Angeles? And listener can participate in this as well. Now this is just an ad for them. It's s u a y. They have a die bath, a community die bath. You take your clothes and they die them, and it's incredible. It's as close to dying in East the joy of dying in an easter egg. I've gotten too since I was like nine years old. 00:49:53 Speaker 2: That they get in the bath, like I thought it was likely you. 00:49:57 Speaker 4: Come out bit different. 00:49:59 Speaker 2: Honestly, it was like wow, changed. 00:50:04 Speaker 3: I'm describing it like a spray TNSL. Do you come out on orange? 00:50:09 Speaker 2: Do you get to do it? Or they're doing it? 00:50:11 Speaker 4: They do it. 00:50:12 Speaker 3: So they have like four colors a month. This is now just an ad for them. They better appreciate it. And you take your old clothes or whatever, pick the colors you want. They charge by the pound, and then they diet. You show up four to six weeks later and you've got these fun new colors. 00:50:28 Speaker 2: Why why what is it a tied eye or is it like one color? 00:50:32 Speaker 3: I have one tied eye color and then three regular colors. 00:50:36 Speaker 4: Okay, And so let's say you have. 00:50:38 Speaker 3: Like a shirt that's like kind of worn out, or like you're tired of the color. 00:50:42 Speaker 4: Take it in and put it in a new color. 00:50:44 Speaker 2: Interesting. Wow. 00:50:46 Speaker 3: Wow, it's the only thing bringing me joy at this point. 00:50:50 Speaker 5: I am going to cancel my plans tonight so that I can sit. I'm leaving the podcast. I need to sit in an empty room and think about the possibilities. 00:51:01 Speaker 3: You should take your grateful dead shirt when you're tired of it being white, get it die. 00:51:05 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:51:06 Speaker 3: I'm telling you, this is the wave of the future. It's the only thing I care about outside of Tetris. It's time to play a game. 00:51:12 Speaker 4: You two. 00:51:13 Speaker 3: We're gonna play a game called Gift to a Curse. I need a number between one and ten from you. 00:51:19 Speaker 4: I was gonna say eight. Oh, now are you really yeah? 00:51:22 Speaker 3: Okay, well then I'm glad you came to one agreement on this thing. I have to do some light calculating. So while I'm doing that, you can promote, recommend, do whatever you want with the microphone for who knows how much time. 00:51:35 Speaker 2: Brother ke sinks pretty hurts. I can answer. 00:51:38 Speaker 4: Wehless that we're pretty good. 00:51:43 Speaker 2: I forget the rest. It's just not true. You know, there's a part of that. So she says, pretty hurts shine the light on whatever's worst. 00:51:50 Speaker 4: I think you speaking it. It's just as good. 00:51:53 Speaker 2: Beauty ideas can be pretty hard on women. Yeah, they make us feel a suire. 00:52:00 Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:52:00 Speaker 5: I was just gonna try and say that we shrink ourselves. We shrink ourselves. 00:52:07 Speaker 2: I feel bad to take our pace. Okay. 00:52:09 Speaker 3: I've never seen that time used in that way before, and I hope to never see it again. So irresponsible, just absolutely. 00:52:20 Speaker 5: Oh we have a podcast. It's on Patreon. It's called Lecture Hall. It's a lot of this energy. 00:52:29 Speaker 4: If you like what you're here, then you're gonna love this one. If you have any qualms about what you're here, I recommend throwing your computer away now. 00:52:39 Speaker 2: If you unsubscribe, don't tell us why because it's so mean. That don't really mean? 00:52:43 Speaker 3: Do people mean things to you? Yeah, well why do people do that? 00:52:46 Speaker 5: They have like they have a list of options that you can give when you unsubscribe, and so when they choose the option, like, wasn't interested anymore? 00:52:58 Speaker 3: That stings just kind of general disinteresting. 00:53:02 Speaker 4: I lost it. 00:53:04 Speaker 3: I had enough, had enough would be a good. 00:53:07 Speaker 2: Option, got what I needed. 00:53:14 Speaker 3: Got what I need that you need that's a grosser that's the grosser state. 00:53:20 Speaker 4: But I do like had enough or let's just wrap it up. 00:53:25 Speaker 3: Is there any way this could end? This is how gift or a curse works. I'm going to name three things. You're gonna tell me if there're a gift or a curse, and why I'm gonna tell if you're right or wrong? And I can never remember how we play this with two people on at least do you have any idea? 00:53:40 Speaker 4: Is it? 00:53:40 Speaker 3: Usually they come to a consensus. Okay, So you have to decide together if it's a gift or a curse, and then I'll tell you if you're right or wrong. 00:53:47 Speaker 4: Okay. 00:53:47 Speaker 3: So number one this is a listener suggestion from somebody named Senight. Tonight has suggested gift her a curse, describing the scale of something by saying you can see it from space, so like you can see the Great Wall of China from space, or well I've already run out of things that you can see from space. 00:54:07 Speaker 4: Well, I guess in that case, here's the thing. 00:54:10 Speaker 5: It's a gift if you are wanting to compare it to the Great Wall of China. 00:54:19 Speaker 4: Otherwise that's a curse. 00:54:20 Speaker 2: I am so on positive. It's a curse. That's why I'm like, look, I just feel like I haven't been to space. That doesn't mean anything to me. I don't I'm not going to look that up. I don't know what that looks like. I'm down here. 00:54:32 Speaker 4: That is a good point that we're down here. 00:54:34 Speaker 2: I don't know what you can and can't see from space? What do I astronaut? 00:54:41 Speaker 4: I don't want to go to space. 00:54:43 Speaker 2: Oh I don't. I'm staying right. 00:54:44 Speaker 4: No, no, no, I'm staying put. 00:54:47 Speaker 2: You know what it is? If I could get knocked out, like if I could be given anesthesia and I wake up in space, it's the rocket that I don't want. 00:54:52 Speaker 3: Oh, it's just the ride. 00:54:54 Speaker 2: It's the ride that bothers, not the. 00:54:55 Speaker 3: Boring or the fact that there are no stores there. 00:54:58 Speaker 2: It's lift off. 00:54:59 Speaker 5: Do you remember when those children in Thailand were stuck in that cave? Of course, well, during that rescue mission, they were given the children were given anesthetics so that they would be knocked out while the cave divers brought them. 00:55:14 Speaker 4: Back to safety. 00:55:15 Speaker 5: They were given like oxygen tanks and they were they were put under. 00:55:21 Speaker 3: They all got knocked out, basically, So what to just because they. 00:55:24 Speaker 4: Were because if they freaked out at all, then it. 00:55:28 Speaker 3: Would danger the mission. Yeah, whoa, So they did they trick them into knocking them out. They're like, here's some oxygen of the room. 00:55:36 Speaker 4: They all they had to take each of them on a horrible date. Interesting. 00:55:45 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So I mean we are just you're fully avoiding answering this question though that we would. 00:55:51 Speaker 2: Both would like to be put under anesthesia and the answer the question. 00:55:56 Speaker 3: You have to answer this, you have to answer it. 00:55:57 Speaker 2: I think it's a curse. 00:55:58 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm going to say curse. You're right. 00:56:01 Speaker 3: That exact logic is what I'm thinking. I'm not in space. Who cares compared to something that It's like, it's as big as a target? There we go, Wow, the Great Wall of China's as big as a target. Okay, now I get what we're talking. 00:56:14 Speaker 2: How many targets? 00:56:16 Speaker 4: What if it was as big. 00:56:17 Speaker 3: As one time and somehow made waves? People were crazy about this thing? 00:56:23 Speaker 2: Yeah, which target? 00:56:27 Speaker 4: It also doubles as a target. That's where I got your sensible shirt at the Great Walls. 00:56:41 Speaker 3: Honey, can you run to the Great Wall of China? I bet you could get some good shirts at the Great Wall of China. I bet they are like souvenir stands that have good shirts, don't you think. 00:56:50 Speaker 5: I always, I always think that it would be funny to get like a sensible shirt from like a souvenir. 00:56:57 Speaker 4: Show that has nothing to do with nothing to do. 00:57:00 Speaker 5: Yeah, that has nothing to do with the attraction that it's connected to. 00:57:05 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just blue, and then you diet another color. 00:57:09 Speaker 4: Every three months. 00:57:12 Speaker 3: Okay, you got one, right, would you? I mean you don't neither everyone wants to go to space, But do either of you want to. 00:57:17 Speaker 4: Go to the Great Wall of China. Yeah, I'm sure. 00:57:20 Speaker 3: I feel like that'd be a good time. Yeah, and I would like to get some sense of scale. Yeah, of course, because the space thing isn't doing anything for me. I need to see it with my peepers exactly. 00:57:32 Speaker 4: And you know you're saying it's a target basically target. Yeh Okay, my Google doc is all fouled up. 00:57:43 Speaker 3: Okay, here we go. A listener suggestion from someone named Cooper. Cooper has asked gift or a curse automatic trunk doors on SUVs? 00:57:52 Speaker 2: I have such an a media roc. I think they're fine. 00:57:54 Speaker 3: Yeah, not the answer not the answer we're looking for here. We need a gift or a curse. 00:58:00 Speaker 4: I think gift and why because you know, just a little thing to make your life just that much easier. 00:58:08 Speaker 2: But do this, does it actually make it easier? Because what happens is you don't know it's automatic, so you start to try to push it and then it gets mad and it goes back up and you find this thing for like twenty minutes. 00:58:19 Speaker 5: So normally, you know you will have probably learned the cause and effect. 00:58:25 Speaker 4: In a couple of sites. 00:58:26 Speaker 2: You're saying like look long term, like yes, there's a rough learn, Yeah, there's a learning curve. 00:58:30 Speaker 4: So I'm going to say gift, gift. 00:58:33 Speaker 2: Okay, it's just because we have to agree, I'm going to say gift, but I don't mean it. 00:58:36 Speaker 3: I think they are a curse. And it's because of that feeling they try to push it down and it makes you feel so weak and makes you feel dumb. 00:58:46 Speaker 4: And you're like, just let me do it, just let me push the thing done. 00:58:50 Speaker 3: I mean, I will say I like the idea of it, Like doubling is a weapon. Someone's back there and you push the button and it springs open. But it's so slow that I don't think it would be that effective of us that it. 00:58:59 Speaker 2: Should be optional issues. If I want to close it, let me close it. 00:59:03 Speaker 5: If your enemy is you know, the simple tortoise, then it could perhaps crush him. 00:59:11 Speaker 2: You can't get out of the way and get out. I think Bridger was describing it pops up suddenly. But you're saying it's going to slowly. 00:59:19 Speaker 3: You're thinking, so our ideas of killing are all over the map. You're more of a crush. I'm more of a fling. 00:59:26 Speaker 4: We're sort of seeing the trunk as like a Swiss army knife. Right. 00:59:30 Speaker 3: So it does offer a lot of things, but ultimately the thing offers the most is just that little bit of frustration and anger that you're like, just let me close the door. 00:59:38 Speaker 4: Well, here's the thing. I will have learned my lesson by then. 00:59:43 Speaker 3: Well not all quick learners. 00:59:45 Speaker 4: That's true. That's true. Perhaps that is my privilege. 00:59:49 Speaker 3: You're speaking from a place of great privilege of being able to know how doors work. Well, okay, so you've gotten one out of two so far, You've got one more to go. This is from a listener who declined to give their name. Maybe they're maybe they're embarrassed of me, of the podcast. God knows what. 01:00:08 Speaker 4: Maybe they're very famous. 01:00:10 Speaker 3: Yeah, this could be a ver. This could be Santa. 01:00:13 Speaker 2: Claus, Lawrence Peugh. 01:00:15 Speaker 4: It's either Santa Claus or Florence Pugh. 01:00:18 Speaker 3: Florence. We all we can tell this is Florence's voice because I'll tell you. Let me read it aloud. Give her a curse. Cutting open a bell pepper to find a baby bell pepper inside clearly something Florence would submit. 01:00:31 Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like I have had that experience so many times. I feel like I have tweeted about that experience you have, Yes, Lawrence, No, Florence, please follow back, because it's like you cut into it and you're like, oh my god, I didn't know what was pregnant. You know what I mean? I didn't know. 01:00:48 Speaker 4: She wasn't showing, she wasn't showing. She carried it so well, she dressed perfectly for it. 01:00:58 Speaker 2: Oh my god, it had a baby. 01:01:00 Speaker 3: She's always been carrying a bag of groceries since, so I'm never able to. 01:01:04 Speaker 4: Tell that she was, like, that's why she has that basketball at all times. 01:01:10 Speaker 2: A couple of times I've cut up the little one too, and other times I've thrown it away because I got scared. 01:01:16 Speaker 4: No, I'm I'm going to cut up that little one, and that's a little extra treat. That's a little appetizer. Look, yeah, that's an appetizer. 01:01:23 Speaker 3: If I've ever talked about one, yeah, uh, gift or a curse, then. 01:01:29 Speaker 2: Guest gift because it's a it's a unique experience gift. 01:01:33 Speaker 4: It is a gift. 01:01:34 Speaker 3: I think it's delightful little surprise exactly. I mean, it's never happened to me, so maybe it is a curse. No, it is a gift, and it's I'm going to will it into my life. I want them to happen to me so bad to see that little baby bell pepper in there. 01:01:46 Speaker 4: What freak of nature happens? 01:01:48 Speaker 2: It happens to me all the time at the. 01:01:50 Speaker 3: Time, not cutting off bell peppers. 01:01:52 Speaker 2: It happens a lot. 01:01:53 Speaker 5: Oh wow, is so you you are just dying for this to happen. 01:01:57 Speaker 4: I am absolutely dying for love to watch my friend's dream dream out loud. Have you had it happen a few times? 01:02:09 Speaker 3: Shifting in a way that I'm thinking the normal. 01:02:11 Speaker 4: Amount of times? 01:02:13 Speaker 5: I'm it's not like a daily occurrence for me, but I would say maybe. 01:02:20 Speaker 4: Thrice a year. Wow. Yeah, how many bell peppers are you each cutting up a year? I'm cutting up a lot of bell PEPs. This was a snack. It's yeah, the bell pepper is a staple in my household. Which color all of them? 01:02:33 Speaker 2: I don't discriminate either, crazy like I like a colorful dish. I had a purple one recently. 01:02:38 Speaker 4: I've never had a purple that's an eggplane. 01:02:40 Speaker 2: It was not an egg plant. I know what an eggplant is. It was a bell pepper. 01:02:44 Speaker 4: It was. 01:02:44 Speaker 2: It was purple in the inside, right, I cut into it green inside? 01:02:48 Speaker 4: Whoa Barney core. 01:02:51 Speaker 2: It was like that ketchup that they used to have you're talking about, like the ketchup that was grown. 01:02:56 Speaker 3: That period when they were trying to get people excited about ketchup. 01:03:00 Speaker 4: Or what they were. That was during some Shrek marketing, the ketchup thing. 01:03:06 Speaker 3: Yeah, the catchup pre dated Trek. 01:03:08 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is two on one event. 01:03:11 Speaker 4: Maybe they later were like, let's try it with Shrek. 01:03:13 Speaker 1: Yeah. 01:03:14 Speaker 3: Yeah, it failed without the character before, but maybe now people. 01:03:17 Speaker 4: Get yeah exactly. I mean I remember. 01:03:22 Speaker 5: Being like, well, in the commercial, you know, these parents are drawing so many images on these plates with this, with this new ketchup. Mom, if it wouldn't trouble you too much and. 01:03:34 Speaker 4: She would draw, would you would do it? Yeah? 01:03:39 Speaker 3: I thought, you know, I thought that was going to take a turn. 01:03:41 Speaker 5: I know, no, but it didn't. Sometimes the biggest surprise is what you worries you. 01:03:49 Speaker 2: Do, you give surprise. A little bell pepper inside is a gift. 01:03:51 Speaker 3: It is a gift. It absolutely is a gift. And I hope to see that someday. And just one more question about bell peppers. It's true right that, like they're all the same bell pepper. 01:04:02 Speaker 4: It just goes. 01:04:02 Speaker 3: It's just different stages of ripeness. 01:04:06 Speaker 4: I'm looking. 01:04:06 Speaker 3: No one in the room, no one in the outdoors knows. I thought like the green was like a loost ripe and then yellow, red or something, just different formats. 01:04:18 Speaker 2: I don't know. 01:04:19 Speaker 4: I've never noticed at this is giving a thumbs up. 01:04:21 Speaker 3: We've all learned something and I've confirmed something that I know something. 01:04:24 Speaker 2: It doesn't feel right. I don't mean like it doesn't feel right morally or like it's not right, but it's okay, you know what I mean. 01:04:30 Speaker 4: Wow, it's not ripe, but it's okay. Oh, get the song going. 01:04:36 Speaker 3: They've got to do the parody Bell Pepper Association, Weird al Enter, weird Broth and. 01:04:43 Speaker 2: It's not right, but it's okay. Fornys bell Pepper Pardy. 01:04:48 Speaker 4: It's a parody of bell Peppers, not of the song. 01:04:52 Speaker 2: We do satire. 01:04:53 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is just like the Onion. 01:04:56 Speaker 3: We have an audience right now. There's got to be somebody out there that could put a version of that song together. 01:05:01 Speaker 2: Oh, I'd love to hear it. 01:05:02 Speaker 3: Please somebody. We're reaching out, write and record the song and then like a bunch of people will half listen to it and then move on their lives. But it'll be worth it for the people currently president on the podcast. Well, you got two out of three. 01:05:18 Speaker 2: That's pretty good. 01:05:19 Speaker 4: That's really not bad. It could have gone way worse. Yeah, that's a that's a it's a deep. It's a plus. 01:05:25 Speaker 3: It's unfortunately a D plus. There's kind of no way to get a good grade unless you get all three on this. 01:05:30 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's between A plus and D plus. There's a steep drop. 01:05:36 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a massive drop if you lose one, but who cares. This is the final segment of the podcast. It's called I Said No emails people write into I said no gifts at gmail dot com. Every one of them is a parasite who's begging for answers, who needs some help from me, and they're leading my energy and I'm happy to do it. And I bring the list the in to answer a question. Will you help me sure? 01:06:03 Speaker 2: I'm sorry you're going through that. 01:06:04 Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you. 01:06:05 Speaker 3: This is the first time I've ever gotten a you know, someone's felt for me. And it's nice to have a little bit of support from the guest on occasion. 01:06:13 Speaker 5: I wish more people listen and look, we're culpable as well. 01:06:17 Speaker 4: We brought a gift. 01:06:19 Speaker 3: You've added to my pain, but now you've taken away a lesson. Yeah okay, deer bridger and helpful guest. I am requesting help in choosing a gift for my employees for their fourth or on their fourth anniversary of working for me. I operate a small coffee shop and three of my four employees have been with me for four years. This is a story problem. Three of my four employees have been with me for four years and one has celebrated their first anniversary at the shop. They are all strong, independent workers and have been invaluable to the success of the shop. The shop is just over four years old, so most of these people have been with me since nearly the beginning. I want to get them something to say I appreciate them, and the ideas I'm coming up with don't. 01:07:02 Speaker 4: Meet the mark. 01:07:03 Speaker 3: First idea have them over to the house for a home cooked meal by me. Second idea roller skate night. So here's some info to help you. Employees are twenty five to forty years old. Comma. Dietary restrictions comma. And I'm just going to stop you person right now. You didn't tell us any of the dietary restrictions, so we're going to have to talk about that. Half of them are non drinkers, half are public commuters and can't go far. We are in Phoenix, Arizona. If that helps, Can a roller rink night and or a home cooked meal work? Or is there something else you can suggest to make me feel like I am properly honoring commitment to the shop. Thank you, And that's from Sharon. Sharon decided she wasn't gonna tell us any of the dietary restrictions, so we've got to be very careful. 01:07:49 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like an essayt question. 01:07:52 Speaker 3: I like one of those ones where you're like, you have ten different characters and you're like, and how did what did this character do? 01:07:57 Speaker 5: Here's the thing that I really liked about this email, well, is that so she has four employees four, so using words like half of them really makes it sound like they're a lot more like it's. 01:08:11 Speaker 4: A huge just see too. Two. 01:08:13 Speaker 3: Okay, so we're just Sharon. We're just coming after you here. But let's let's first of all, congratulations Sharon on the success of the shop. It's been open for four years and the employee retention at this place is. 01:08:28 Speaker 4: Through the roof. Yeah, that's fantastic. 01:08:30 Speaker 3: I feel like at a coffee shop, somebody shows up and works for three weeks and then moves on. 01:08:34 Speaker 2: I've never seen the same Mareisa twice. Oh yeah, they're all dying, you don't hear I assume they die if. 01:08:40 Speaker 3: You have a curse that if a Barisa meets you, they die shortly after. Kind of this specter haunting the nation's coffee shops. 01:08:50 Speaker 4: Coffee shops hate her. 01:08:55 Speaker 3: That's an article you see that's a little ad that you see coffee shops hate Sharon. 01:09:01 Speaker 4: It sounds like, you're a wonderful boss. 01:09:03 Speaker 3: People love her, love her. 01:09:05 Speaker 4: What do you two feel like? How do you feel about a work party? I like a work party. I do like a work party. 01:09:11 Speaker 5: My vote would go for home cooked meal. Why because there's a chance that people can fall at roller skating. Oh interesting, And you know there's always a chance that people can trip over a home cooked meal as well, but the chances are much. 01:09:30 Speaker 2: Lower, Sharon, I disagree. I'm saying roller because they've diet hery restrictions. They want to eat before they come. 01:09:37 Speaker 4: Oh interesting, they. 01:09:39 Speaker 2: Want to eat before they come. They want to figure out their own dinner and then hang out. 01:09:42 Speaker 3: Right if Sharon tries to and when you are cooking for people with dietary restrictions, I feel like you're never careful enough. And Sharon, for all we know, is completely reckless. The only thing we know she knows how to make is coffee. 01:09:54 Speaker 2: We don't know if she's a kosher kitchen or not. 01:09:56 Speaker 3: Right, peanuts everywhere, shellfish all over the counters, with gluten. There's cross contamination that's happening constantly. 01:10:07 Speaker 4: She doesn't leave the house until she sprinkled some gluten all over her appliance. 01:10:14 Speaker 3: That's kind of what people love about Sharon. That's her little quirk. Okay, so not a home cooked meal. I think that's probably a good idea. 01:10:23 Speaker 4: I think. 01:10:23 Speaker 3: I think a roller rink provides another It does offer another danger, as they mentioned earlier, which is they're all tripping and stumbling and falling all over each other. 01:10:34 Speaker 5: And then you know tomorrow morning, the big coffee rush, but you've got half your employees out. Oh they got injured and mad at each other. They blamed each other for it. 01:10:50 Speaker 4: She's common. We only have one employee left. 01:10:53 Speaker 3: That's how Sharon dies. 01:10:56 Speaker 4: Sharon, I have a group order. 01:10:59 Speaker 3: She's he's Dylan slowly moving through the parking lot towards the entrance. She's like frantically trying to lock the door. 01:11:10 Speaker 4: Dylan walking so slowly, that. 01:11:16 Speaker 3: Is Sharon move Well, it seems like those are both loser ideas. Then she shouldn't do either. Maybe it's just a gift card to well but not another. It feels like a gift card is usually to a coffee place. 01:11:29 Speaker 4: Well, maybe everyone decide on a restaurant together. 01:11:33 Speaker 3: Oh, interesting, But then I feel like getting everyone on board with one restaurant is going to lead to some hurt feelings. 01:11:41 Speaker 4: It's a bridgard. 01:11:42 Speaker 5: Can I tell you every single scenario that she has presented us will end in our feelings? 01:11:50 Speaker 2: But isn't that how it is? Not the way it is? 01:11:54 Speaker 3: What does that mean? Isn't that the way it is? Everything ends in hurt feelings? You've never been in this scenario. 01:12:02 Speaker 2: I'm like, I have these employees, like it's hard. You can't make everybody happy all the time. 01:12:07 Speaker 3: Maybe it's laser tag night. You don't have to have as much of a skill. You get to keep your sneakers on and roller skating. You can show up one of those roller rings and you've got those hot shots doing the backwards skating and all this, and suddenly Sharon's coffee shop is ruining everyone's skate night. 01:12:25 Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, exactly, Sharon. 01:12:27 Speaker 3: Take them to laser Tag. I feel like Phoenix is just overflowing with laser tag. 01:12:32 Speaker 4: It's the laser tag capital of the world. 01:12:36 Speaker 3: Sharon, You've you've gotten your answer. Take that forward, and if your employees have a problem with that, they can become dedicated listeners to this podcast along with both of our guests moms, and we'll all have a wonderful time it feels like we answered that perfectly. Yeah, I don't see any problem with how we answered that question. I do so much you two have. It helps a little bit. Well, I've got this new shirt which I'm gonna have to slowly acclimate too, basically kind of. Maybe I'll wear it around the house alone for a while and just try to forget that it's from the podcast. 01:13:15 Speaker 2: It's too genuinely possible. It's like a possible shirt that you can have. 01:13:19 Speaker 3: Oh, this is absolutely I honestly probably have a shirt almost identical to this in my closet, so it's something I would have bought at some point maybe. But this is why do I take it to the die bath? 01:13:29 Speaker 2: Wow? Yeah, personalize it. 01:13:31 Speaker 4: Personalize it for myself. 01:13:32 Speaker 3: But then it's like, not only is it from the podcast, but I made it my own exact and now I can wear it with pride and without shame. 01:13:39 Speaker 4: Exactly. 01:13:40 Speaker 3: We'll see what happens you too. I've had an absolutely fantastic time with you. 01:13:45 Speaker 4: This has been the most fun. 01:13:47 Speaker 3: A thank you for being here and listener. Podcast is over. It's simply over. You have to find something else to do with your time. I hate to throw you out into the you know, into the whatever with the wolves or whatever happens when you stop listening to the podcast. But do what you want to do. Return here next week at whatever time you feel like. I'm not trying to control you. These are gentle suggestions.
