00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: Hey, this is Annie and Samantha and welcome to Stephan.

2
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: I never told your production of I Hire Radio and

3
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: welcome to a new Monday Minie. I don't know why

4
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: I said new. I guess just all of our money.

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: Minda's unless they repeat it our new, aren't they? And

6
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: you never know? You never never know? Um. And because

7
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: it is holiday season and if you're wondering, this is

8
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: the beginning of December one, just to put this little

9
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: time stamp on and what we like to do every

10
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: now and again, it's just remind you of the amazing

11
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: people behind our show. And so we wanted to do

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: a reintroduction of our team and slash introduction because we

13
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: do have a new team member that's been around for

14
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: a while now, which is really said that we waited

15
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: this long. Sorry, I'm gonna blame this on quarantine slash,

16
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 1: pandemic slash, you know all the new variants, right Annie,

17
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and time just losing meaning because we did

18
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: actually have a we were fortunate enough to have an

19
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: in person meeting with our whole team back in July,

20
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: right right, But it doesn't feel like it was that

21
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: long ago. So while we start, you know, myself and Annie,

22

Speaker 1: off on a little tim In my notebook the other day,

31
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: I noticed I had some notes from an old podcast

32
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: convention that I went to before I worked at my Heart,

33
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,040

34
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: was on a panel at work it and I like,

35
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: I was reading through some of the notes I was

36
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: taking from the panel and now here we are all

37
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: working together. I think that was like in seventeen or

38
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: something like that. So that's like really funny and cool

39
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:35,800

00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: almost my one year anniversary producing Sminty, so thank you

52
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: for having me. Been a year seriously in January. Yeah,

53
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 1: I started last January, mid January, but I didn't really

54
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: pick up the show maybe until February ish from Andrew.

55
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: So almost a year though, for sure. So I'm pretty

56
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: decided I have to do a special episode anniversary episode.

57
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah we should. We We totally should.

58
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: We could do evaluation about how you feel about us

59
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: or anything, but that could be yeah, like a reverse evaluation. Okay,

60
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: yeah yeah, yeah, these are the things that annoy me.

61
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: Samantha stopped doing this, thank you very much. Stop seeing okay,

62
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: never a good point. More yes, more singing, Yes, I

63
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: figured out that. Yeah, especially I don't violate any of

64
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: the on air stuff because I never remember the actual

65
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: tune or the words. So I'm like, this is the

66
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 1: best way to sing a song, right, making up things

67
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: to a tune that doesn't really exist but in my

68
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: head it does. Why not it works for our circumstances

69
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: and not violating any copyright laws. It's always good on purpose. Yes,

70
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: we'll say that's on purpose, on purpose, not because I

71
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: can't remember what it is or what they say pretty much.

72
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: But yes, it is the holiday season, and I thought

73
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: it would be fun if each of y'all would tell

74
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: us your favorite holiday tradition, whatever it may be, or

75
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: maybe even your favorite holiday memory. Any And I've already

76
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: kind of gone down this way, but we're gonna bring

77
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 1: it up again, and any I want an answer from

78
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: you as well. But Maya, can you tell us something

79
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 1: to put you on the spot. Don't like bringing it?

80
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: Do you have a half favorite holiday tradition or a

81
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: favorite holiday memory? I have a lot. I'm like a

82
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 1: pretty big holiday person. I do quite enjoy the holidays.

83
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 1: This year, um where we've been in our house for

84
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 1: about a year, so this year we actually like really

85
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: got into decorating. Last year, we were just getting settled

86
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: in and like kind of rushing and everything. But this

87
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 1: year we're like really going out decorating. We got the tree.

88
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 1: We cut our first tree down ourselves, and we didn't

89
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 1: go a rogue into like some random forest, but we

90
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: went to a tree farm and cut down our own trees.

91
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: So that was really cool and I feel like it's

92
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 1: definitely going to be a new tradition. I really enjoyed

93
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: that process. I've always been a real tree person, so

94
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: I've always grown up with like fresh trees, so that's

95
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: definitely like a tradition of just like having the fresh tree.

96
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: But this cutting the tree down thing was like very cool.

97
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,919
Speaker 1: I felt like I was in like a Hallmark movie

98
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: or something nice. So that was amazing. Yeah, Well, I

99
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: got questions because we used to do this too when

100
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: I was growing up, but I was never actually like

101
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 1: I would pick out the tree and then go sit

102
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: in the car because this was when it was actually cold,

103
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: and which is a little bit different because right now

104
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: at sixty eight degrees in Atlanta. But did you go

105
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: with tools and actually chopped down this tree or did

106
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 1: they provide you with things? Yeah, So we went to

107
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: a farm in Gwynnette County, so I don't even know

108
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,119
Speaker 1: what town, just like a small town outside of the city.

109
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 1: And they had saws, so you you know, you drove up,

110
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 1: you parked, and they're like, do you want to pick

111
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: out a tree or do you want to cut a tree?

112
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: And we're like, let's cut the tree. And we got

113
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: a saw and a wheelbarrow that's like the size of

114
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 1: a Christmas tree. It was more like a net and

115
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: two legs with wheels on it, and there was just

116
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: rows and rows and rows of trees. It was really

117
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: awesome and so we got to you know, they provided

118
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: us with the saw and we cut it down ourselves,

119
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: and they also came clemented me on my perfection of

120
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: sighing and how straight and clean it was, so I

121
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: was pretty impressed. I did mostly cutting myself. My husband

122
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: did a little bit of the cutting, but I did

123
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: mostly cutting myself. So you may have like, like professional

124
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: lumberjack ability, what is a tree services, But I'm like

125
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: it lumberjack because that just feels like right for me. Now.

126
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: It's just such a like a title for like lumberjack

127
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 1: sexual and that they lumbers, is that the thing I

128
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: don't know. Obviously, I don't know much about it. But

129
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 1: that's how the references in my head. Now, this is

130
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: where I am. Thank you, TikTok. I'm not on that

131
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: side of TikTok yet. I think I've missed that one.

132
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: We haven't made it over the lumber sexually. Well, I'm everywhere.

133
00:07:50,320 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: I'm not telling you, I'm everywhere on this TikTok. But Christina,

134
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 1: what about you? What is a favorite tradition or memory? Okay, so, um,

135
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: it's perfect that Maya has a lot, and I actually

136
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of tradition. I come from a

137
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: huge family back in Pennsylvania and it's a little too

138
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: much to try to be all together on Christmas Day.

139
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: So one thing that we do do every year is

140
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: a big family Christmas party. And um, I have a

141
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: lot of little cousins and like younger kids in my family. Um,

142
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: so we have somebody dresses Santa and they all think

143
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 1: it's Santa. It's amazing. And I thought it was Santa

144
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: when I was a kid. You know, It's been going

145
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: on since I was a kid and still is and well,

146
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: you know, COVID kind of messed it up. But you know,

147
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 1: it probably will happen again soon ish when it can,

148
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: and um, that's a fun thing, you know. I always

149
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: look forward to it as a kid, especially because you

150
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: get gifts. You get like a little gift from Santa

151
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 1: and then big emphasis on like godparents, so um godparent

152
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: gifts and stuff like that, and then you have to

153
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,560
Speaker 1: hang out with everybody and eat food. And you know,

154
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 1: that was sort of my favorite family tradition. But other

155
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: than that, I just try to see my family on

156
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: Christmas and uh, keep it pretty chill. Um. You know.

157
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: That's about it for me, though, Like I'm I can't

158
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: really think of anything else. So that we do as

159
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,199
Speaker 1: a family. You know, we'll watch you know how they

160
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: play um a Christmas story, We'll watch that, you know,

161
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: and then yeah, Christmas Day, we just opened up a

162
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: few things and that's about it. You know. I'm with you. Um,

163
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: I'm not very sentimental. And one of the things that

164
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 1: we talked about then the listeners know that I hate

165
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: the holidays. I am very much the grump of the holidays.

166
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 1: It starts from my birthday on which is in September.

167
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, everything's the worst. Why is this? Like why

168
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 1: is it like this? And why am I like this?

169
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: Both of those come into my head. So any and

170
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: I were talking about our own traditions. I really had

171
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: to dig from my own. I was like, I don't know,

172
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: because me being sad, sack, you know, pessimist over here,

173
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: I'm really having to think. But but yeah, just being

174
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: able to have a moment, and I can think of

175
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 1: the emotions of just having a moment when everything felt good,

176
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: but it wasn't necessarily anything that was abnormally special type

177
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: of thing to me, you know. And I'm like, and

178
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,839
Speaker 1: and even for me, I had traditions. I'm not gonna lie.

179
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: I've been trying because I try real hard. I'm like,

180
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to be a normal, middle class human where

181
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to appreciate that this is about the holiday,

182
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: the family and holidays and get together even though in

183
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: my head I would rather just be in my comfy

184
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: and sit on the couch and watch horror movies. But

185
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: I try my damnedest to get it together. So yeah,

186
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: but being with the family when there's no drama, it's

187
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: really nice. Yeah, yeah it is. It's still kind of

188
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: like a what is happening? Yeah, no, Annie, to you,

189
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: Now that I've given my sad sack holiday ideas perfect.

190
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: I love the lead in um Well, briefly, this is

191
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: not a sponsor, but I did give my mom a

192
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 1: comfy because you got one, and it was a big

193
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: hit and she actually wore it to like grill out

194
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: outside when I was for Thanksgiving and it was really awesome,

195
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: which for anyone who doesn't know, it's just essentially a

196
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: big blanket that you wear. It's kind of like a

197
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 1: snuggy but giant, but giant to the point I love

198
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: like a popple doll. When we talked about this last year,

199
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if y'all know my Christina, because you're

200
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: kind of young. I don't know if they existed. Y'all

201
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: are younger than me, much younger. We discovered those and

202
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, cool, cool, cool. Uh that a

203
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: popple doll? Do you know what I'm talking about? What

204
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: those are? No? Annie, why are you giving me the tally?

205
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 1: It is essentially this like stuffed animal that was some

206
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: type of sports ball that turns out to be like

207
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,599
Speaker 1: a creature, and it's not necessarily a teddy beer. I

208
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 1: think some of them like we're supposed to be dogs

209
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: and lambs and it pops out to that and what's

210
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: called a popple, and I believe they still exist bet dubs.

211
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: But essentially it's what I say I am because if

212
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: you like huddle into a fool position, I look like

213
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: a big ball and then I pop up and I'm

214
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: like a weird like aking creature that comes out of it.

215
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: I'm having a lot of trouble and visions like the

216
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: stuffed animals that turned into turned into pillows. I've seen that. Yeah,

217
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: the pillows. Think, yeah, that was after. That was after

218
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 1: I know. I know you want to have a lot

219
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 1: of listeners call and be like, oh my god, I

220
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: had this one. Yes you did, we all did my

221
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: my age. I mean, like if you're in the forties,

222
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: late thirties, typic like you know what I'm talking about.

223
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay, I'm getting because it was it was

224
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,520
Speaker 1: a cartoon, all right, don't see. This is why I

225
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: say I'm all over the place, keep going an okay, Well,

226
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: I'm actually a big tradition person. I know we've talked

227
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,959
Speaker 1: about this before, and it's interesting because I feel like

228
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: a lot of the conversations you and I have about it, Samantha,

229
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: we always are kind of negative. Not because um, I

230
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: actually like the holidays, I think for reasons that maybe

231
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: aren't traditional reasons, but um, it's just usually we're talking

232
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: about like emotional labor of the holidays, and that's not

233
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: the most fun thing. And as part of that, like

234
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 1: I do, I love my I have my holiday movie lineup,

235
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: I have my music lineup, I have my sweaters, and

236
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: I actually do even though I complained about it in

237
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,599
Speaker 1: the episodes we did about emotional labor, Actually do you

238
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: really like um Christmas trees? Uh? And I like the

239
00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: decoration and I put up mine and my tiny little

240
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: artificial one that has all of my like nerd or

241
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: an events on it. But I always do it after

242
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving because I don't want my mom to have to

243
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 1: do it by herself, and so we always go after

244
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving to get the tree. And last year it got

245
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: screwed over because the pandemic and we couldn't find trees anywhere.

246
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: And then this year they were like, here's our Christmas

247
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 1: tree shortage, and it's funny you your story via as

248
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: we found a place where you could cut down your

249
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: own Christmas tree, and we vetoed it because we're all

250
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: very clumsy. We're we're gonna kill ourselves if we try

251
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: to do that. Um. So we ended up going to

252
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: home Depot and we met this guy. We got there

253
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 1: like right when it opened. We were trying to avoid people.

254
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: We met this guy who was so funny, and he

255
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: immediately was like, don't you think it's weird that, like,

256
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: we grow trees for seven years and then we put

257
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: them in our living room to wash them died. Don't

258
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,040
Speaker 1: you think that's weird. It's like, you're an interesting fellow

259
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: and my soul mate. He went on and on like

260
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: he We kept trying to walk away and he kept

261
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: talking and he was really funny. Um. But it was

262
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: kind of exhausting because I just feel like I don't

263
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: talk to that many people anymore, and it's kind of

264
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: like a skill that's fallen out of practice for me.

265
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: But he did not have a problem with it, and

266
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: he was telling me about how he thought the world

267
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: might be a simulation. I think he was like his

268
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: mother accidentally trapped him under the hood of his car,

269
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: and he just kept going and going and it was

270
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: so funny. And my mom and I got home and

271
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: we kind of looked at each other. Oh, Yeah. Also,

272
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: he tied the tree to our car and he was like,

273
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be okay, and he jerked it around.

274
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: It was like clearly moving along and he was like,

275
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 1: how far do you have to go? So my mom

276
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: and I got home and we looked at each other

277
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 1: and we were like, we're gonna remember this one. We're

278
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: gonna just those kind of stories like that where you

279
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: you get to be with your family or whoever it

280
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: is that's important to you around this time and you

281
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: create these kind of funny, weird memories around traditions that

282
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: you have. That dude, I look, they're kind of similar

283
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: and comforting every year. They're kind of new and interesting

284
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: every year as well. Yeah, that is that is fascinating

285
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 1: this dude. I was saying my sould me until the

286
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 1: assimilation part was but it was it was, that's a

287
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: different conversation. It was very very funny because I was like,

288
00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: wait what And then we were moving on to a

289
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: different topic. Okay, and speaking Annie, because you did talk

290
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: about the having your own playlists, having your own movie list.

291
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: Do y'all have a favorite holiday movie that you must

292
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: watch every year? Maya's nodding yes, So what what is it? Honestly?

293
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: Top five top five Okay, Elf is definitely up there. Um,

294
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: a Christmas story. I feel like Home Alone is definitely

295
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: a holiday movie. I also I feel like there's a

296
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 1: Disney Channel movie that I can't think of right now

297
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: that I always watch. Um they kind of like bleed

298
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: in between like Halloween and then into Christmas. Definitely Harry

299
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 1: Potter kind of like straddles the two. At least the

300
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,959
Speaker 1: first one. Source of Stone has like the Christmas at Dinner,

301
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: so that definitely has the Christmas fields, and some of

302
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: the other ones do too. Those are the ones that,

303
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: off the top of my head that like, for sure,

304
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 1: I always watch Christina. Well, like I said, I think

305
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 1: a Christmas Story, it would be like the only movie

306
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 1: that I have to see once or in pieces because

307
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 1: they played twenty four or seven on the day, so

308
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,679
Speaker 1: you know, I'll probably watch like half of it and

309
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: then two hours later watch the first half of it,

310
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So that is the one

311
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: movie I would watch. But I am more of a

312
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: TV show person growing up, so you know, there's so

313
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: many grid shows out there that have great Christmas episodes. Um,

314
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: off the top of my head, like King of the

315
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: Hill has some really good Christmas episodes. Um, kind of

316
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: depressing ones, but it's so good. Yeah, shows like that.

317
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: I like to watch Christmas specials because other than that,

318
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 1: like I don't really want to watch a Christmas episode

319
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 1: of a show in you know, in October or July

320
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 1: or something, so I'm more of a TV person. But yeah,

321
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: Christmas Story would be my one Christmas movie. If I

322
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 1: had to choose one, I would say, Annie, I know

323
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: you've got t thou you have five no bonuses, Annie,

324
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 1: she wants to add these bonuses that she's like. I

325
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: would say, like, yeah, pretty much what everyone else has said.

326
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 1: I feel like I've talked about this before, but yeah,

327
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 1: we watched We usually watched the Santa Claus watch up

328
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: a Christmas Carol, which I love. And then uh, TV

329
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: episodes I do like, Um, I like the Supernatural Christmas

330
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: one because it's freaky. I like, I just discovered Wellington

331
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:09,239
Speaker 1: Paranormal as a Christmas episode and I love that. And

332
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: then I like a lot of the weird stuff we

333
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: do Savantha where it's not really a Christmas movie, but

334
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: it's like at Christmas. So Spider Versus probably number one.

335
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 1: I love that and I watched it at Christmas right

336
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,159
Speaker 1: well yeah, like like uh, Maya was saying, Harry Potter

337
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: is actually one of mine as well as Christmas time

338
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: they do a Christmas thing is super cute. I must watch.

339
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,880
Speaker 1: I have told you this from last year. I watched

340
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 1: a lot of rom coms when it comes to Christmas movies,

341
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: which is really weird because I am a cynic to

342
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 1: the core. But I love the holiday rom cons. And

343
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about Hallmark, which you would think I

344
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: would add that in, but I've never watched those. I'm

345
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,479
Speaker 1: talking about the holiday specifically. You know I'm talking about mine.

346
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,120
Speaker 1: It's not in your head. The Jack Black um Kate

347
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: Winslet that I love that one about a boy, which

348
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: is uh yeah, so it's way back with I was like,

349
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,479
Speaker 1: why am I watching these? But I love it and

350
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: I must watch it, okay. And I also have liked

351
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 1: Love actually and I have a lot of people yelling

352
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 1: at me about this movie about how it's awful, but

353
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: I still love it and I find it endearing. I

354
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 1: like English humor, okay, thank you, thank you, Maya. Um.

355
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: But I also do the shows because a New Girl

356
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: has a lot of Christmas shows of Christmos episodes that

357
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: I watched, like, I must watch every single one of these,

358
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: and I will skip over to watch that Scrubs has

359
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: a few that are really sad that I must watch

360
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 1: as well. I don't know, I'm like, Okay, I think

361
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: the sad Christmas thing the thing, but I feel like

362
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: it just makes watching these things. I try to get

363
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: in the mood by watching these things. Do you feel

364
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: like it helps y'all to get in the am I

365
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: the only one of our group that really just has

366
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: a hard time getting into spirit, so I do too.

367
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 1: It's not even that like I don't want to have spirit.

368
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: I recently thought I would be like and I'm sure

369
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: you agree, Samantha, we would be perfect in a movie

370
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: about somebody who has no Christmas spirit who needs to

371
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: find Christmas spirit. You know how every Christmas movie is

372
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: that we need like Santa to come find us and

373
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: put it in us, the Christmas spirit. I feel like

374
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: I'm not like actively not seeking it out. I just

375
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: genuinely don't really feel very festive. Um. I appreciate the

376
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 1: holidays and I like to see in my family, but

377
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I would be nice to have like

378
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 1: more traditions. I feel like it would be more fun.

379
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: I would love to make my own traditions eventually, you know,

380
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: when I settled down more or get like a house

381
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: where I can put a big tree, get a real tree,

382
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: would be really cool. I've never done that, so that

383
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: sounds cool too. But yeah, I'm you know, I definitely

384
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: am lacking some festivity. But maybe one day, you know,

385
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: these things like good back to you don't have to

386
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: it's okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, I would say I've definitely

387
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 1: taken that route Christina, of like let me just make

388
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: up my own traditions. And like I found that, you know,

389
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: I grew up in a family that was like really

390
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: big about Christmas, but it was always later in December,

391
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: like the last couple of weeks of December, and I've

392
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 1: kind of taken a different approach of like it takes

393
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 1: so much work to put all of these lights up

394
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 1: in these ornaments and like get it all together, and

395
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: like why don't just start, like you said, Annie, like

396
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: right after Thanksgiving, which we never really did growing up.

397
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 1: And so that's something that I've kind of incorporated for

398
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: myself because it just is fun. And then last year

399
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 1: my husband did this thing of like twenty five days

400
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: of Christmas, so like every day he would come home

401
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: with something random, like a pair of socks or like

402
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: a piece of or like something fun. And it was

403
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 1: just like so much fun that I was like, you

404
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 1: know what, we should just do this all month long

405
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 1: because it just it's just a lot of effort to

406
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 1: get into the spirit and then once it's over, it's

407
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 1: kind of sad. But if you drag it out a

408
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: little bit longer, it's like, Okay, I'm ready for this

409
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: to be over, you know. And so I think creating

410
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 1: traditions is always the best way to go. I love that. Christina.

411
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,719
Speaker 1: Also the secret for Christmas tree get the tiny small

412
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 1: ones or Kroger that's the ones I get. So that's

413
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,399
Speaker 1: easily like I'm done with it and just throw it away.

414
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 1: But it's real and it does last real, but it's

415
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: literally fourth of the size of the real the big ones,

416
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 1: and so like easier to decorate and you can just

417
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:31,679
Speaker 1: put it up on the table and there you go,

418
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas. I did that every year when

419
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,719
Speaker 1: I lived in an apartment. That was what I did,

420
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: Like Whole Foods. That that's tiny Christmas tree and it's

421
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 1: like a little you know, stand and a little bow

422
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: on it, and it's like you're done. I get the

423
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: miniature sucks like socks, stockings, and the stockings. Yeah, I

424
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 1: don't what I'm talking about. I just put socks, whatever works,

425
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: whatever is easiest, whatever it does, stretch you out, like

426
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 1: that's that's the way. That's the only way. Oh y'all.

427
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 1: And it is December, and uh, this is as you

428
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: were talking about trying to extend it out, Maya. I

429
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: feel like you're a lot more organized than myself because

430
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, I haven't even thought about doing anything Christmas

431
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: a yet this is where I am, and then realizing,

432
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 1: oh no, we're in December. I guess I need to

433
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: do some of these things. If I want to do

434
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: some of these things depends on what things you're talking about.

435
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: I think my I really like your husband how he

436
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: does like five gifts or whatever. Um. I think I

437
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: love gift giving, Like gift giving is fun and I

438
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: love being thoughtful. It can be a little stressful, but um,

439
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: I love receiving them too, but I love giving them more.

440
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 1: So I think that's a great idea, is like little

441
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 1: gifts up until Christmas could definitely help with Christmas spirit

442
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: for me. Yeah, And sometimes it's just like a note

443
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 1: or like something really small, like it doesn't happen to anything,

444
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: and it's just more about like the thought and you know,

445
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 1: putting a little effort into each day and makes it exciting. Yeah,

446
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: I like that sounds fun. It's cute. I love it,

447
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: Like how adorable you are? My Yes, it makes life

448
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: a little bit more fun because I am honestly like

449
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:27,199
Speaker 1: a little bit of like an existentialist and like you know,

450
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 1: kind of lean towards the pessimism and I'm like, okay,

451
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,879
Speaker 1: how can I make myself just a little bit happier,

452
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: especially when it's not as sunny as it usually is

453
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,920
Speaker 1: today and you know, it's greyer and you know, the

454
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: sad sets in the s A A D. Not going

455
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 1: to say both whole thing. I'm so glad y'all are

456
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: able to come on and tell us and share with

457
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: us some of the things that y'all do or don't
