0:00:23.480 --> 0:00:23.800
<v Speaker 2>ease in.

0:00:24.440 --> 0:00:27.040
<v Speaker 1>I ran something miles this morning. You did feel good

0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>about that.

0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:29.320
<v Speaker 2>I'll go to the gym too this week, which has

0:00:29.360 --> 0:00:32.800
<v Speaker 2>been good because I was super lazy over the holidays,

0:00:32.800 --> 0:00:34.879
<v Speaker 2>which is fine. I like to be lazy over the holidays.

0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:37.280
<v Speaker 1>And later this week we're gonna get right back in

0:00:37.320 --> 0:00:39.640

<v Speaker 1>We got cast bios. We're gonna break down as many

0:00:41.880 --> 0:00:44.120
<v Speaker 1>of the women as possible because there's thirty two of them.

0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:48.159
<v Speaker 2>It's huge. There's so many women. It's crazy, but it's exciting.

0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I know I'm intimidating, but we're gonna break down a

0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:51.360
<v Speaker 1>lot lot.

0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:54.840

0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:00.480

0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>the first episode.

0:01:02.320 --> 0:01:05.320

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 2>just not that serious yet, you know, it's all just

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:12.200

<v Speaker 1>a standout, stand out part of the holidays. Let's let's

0:02:39.480 --> 0:02:42.680
<v Speaker 1>not include New Year's Okay even this, let's just is

0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 1>just strictly.

0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Christmas my favorite part. Honestly, I just feel like the

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.480
<v Speaker 2>holidays always blur together for me, Like it's hard to

0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 2>pinpoint like specific days. But we did a lot of

0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:58.359
<v Speaker 2>going out with friends of mine and family, and all

0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:01.840
<v Speaker 2>those like dinners nextctivities were super enjoyable.

0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:04.600

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:05.920
<v Speaker 1>such a week answer.

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:08.119
<v Speaker 2>You know, I know, can we just go start to finish?

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:10.839
<v Speaker 1>No, we can't know. This year you have to deal

0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:13.200
<v Speaker 1>with the fact that we may do things not in

0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:14.360
<v Speaker 1>chronological order.

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:17.280
<v Speaker 2>It's so hard. Maybe I'll make that my my New

0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:19.280
<v Speaker 2>Year's one of my New Year's intentions.

0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:21.760
<v Speaker 1>And there you're jumping New Year's already. Well, do you

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:25.480
<v Speaker 1>have a step? What was if you look back at

0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:29.600
<v Speaker 1>this holiday season, what is one moment that you're like

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>that one's sticking with me?

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Hmmm, kind of list a few? Sure, sure, Okay, Well,

0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:43.160
<v Speaker 2>on Christmas Eve, my mom made Prime Room sandwiches that

0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.400
<v Speaker 2>were fire. They were so good.

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I was going to say that was one of the like.

0:03:48.920 --> 0:03:50.840
<v Speaker 2>The best thing I ate the whole holiday season. It

0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:52.680
<v Speaker 2>was just fun. We were all just chilling at home.

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 2>It was Christmas Eve, so like the most Christmasy day

0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:59.120
<v Speaker 2>of the year other than Christmas. That was That was

0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:03.360
<v Speaker 2>a good one. And then okay, Joe, yes, let's chat

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:04.440
<v Speaker 2>about our holiday season.

0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:07.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's do it. I think I think we would be

0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:12.440
<v Speaker 1>doing the listeners a disgust, not disservice, dis service. I

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:15.200
<v Speaker 1>always say disjustice.

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Is not a word.

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:17.719
<v Speaker 1>It's a word that I've made up that I must

0:04:18.400 --> 0:04:20.799
<v Speaker 1>never use again in twenty twenty four, we're starting off.

0:04:20.640 --> 0:04:22.800
<v Speaker 2>Bed No more Disjustice.

0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 1>No More Disjustice. So my present from my wife, which

0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:32.239
<v Speaker 1>is you yep, was the the Kevin McAllister Home Alone

0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 1>two experience at the Plaza in New York. If you

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:39.080
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen Home Alone Too, I suggest you watch it.

0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 1>It's one of the best Christmas movies there is. And

0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Serena got us a room at the Plaza and a

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 1>stretch limo, which that's when I was like really shocked

0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:52.039
<v Speaker 1>by the entire experience because I like I remember just

0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:55.159
<v Speaker 1>being like, you really got a little and a large pizza,

0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:58.159
<v Speaker 1>which got some slack because it was a Pepperoni pizza.

0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:00.360
<v Speaker 2>Now, people, it's supposed to be cheese. That's the whole

0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:02.160
<v Speaker 2>point of the movie. I know it's supposed to be cheese.

0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:05.440
<v Speaker 2>But Joe the night before we did this, we were

0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:09.239
<v Speaker 2>watching Home Alone one and he was like, I would

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.480
<v Speaker 2>get Pepperoni. I was just like, Pepperoni so much better.

0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:14.480
<v Speaker 2>So I was like, Okay, that's I'm going to get

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:15.200
<v Speaker 2>him Pepperoni.

0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 1>You know it was it was Joe's pizza. We took

0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:20.520
<v Speaker 1>the limo, we went, we went, We had the pizza,

0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:22.000
<v Speaker 1>but we barely ate it, and then.

0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:24.719
<v Speaker 2>We well, I had to schedule the delivery, so it

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 2>had been sitting for a little while down in the lobby.

0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:28.520
<v Speaker 2>And I also was just like, I know, we're not

0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:30.279
<v Speaker 2>going to want to eat this pizza and alemo as

0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:32.960
<v Speaker 2>our dinner. We went for a nice dinner. I actually

0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:35.320
<v Speaker 2>also really tried hard to get a white stretch Lemo.

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 2>I checked like four or five different places.

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't think they're in existence.

0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:44.719
<v Speaker 2>And I actually called the places justice what a dis justice.

0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 2>I called the place that I booked the stretch, was like,

0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 2>do you guys have white limbos? She was like, we might.

0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 2>I was like, can I put in like a request

0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:56.240
<v Speaker 2>if one's available? She was like surelat stretch limo showed up.

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, that's unfortunate, but it was.

0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:01.600
<v Speaker 2>It was so oh buddy if it was a white one.

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 2>And I really wanted to get the pizza in the

0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:07.800
<v Speaker 2>limo before you got down there, but there was just

0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:09.679
<v Speaker 2>no way for me to do that in a sneaky

0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:12.599
<v Speaker 2>way without being like meet me downstairs.

0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:16.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah it was. It was a great It was a

0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 1>great experience. Like it was so it was a lot

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:22.800
<v Speaker 1>of fun. I prefer that for a gift over just

0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:24.640
<v Speaker 1>like a physical object.

0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Really do you. I feel like, yeah, you first got together,

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:30.840
<v Speaker 2>you were like a physical gift over experience.

0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Person I give physical gifts over experience, but I I

0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:38.920
<v Speaker 1>did enjoy the experience more because it's just something that'll

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:40.520
<v Speaker 1>always I'll always remember it.

0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:43.160

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.800

0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:47.680
<v Speaker 2>be so awesome, Yeah.

0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:50.160
<v Speaker 1>To do this, And when I think back, you know,

0:06:51.200 --> 0:06:53.599
<v Speaker 1>when I think back on Christmas of twenty twenty three,

0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>that's what I'm gonna that's what I'm gonna think of.

0:06:56.160 --> 0:06:58.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh. I love that. I'm so glad. Honestly, I was

0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:02.280
<v Speaker 2>really nervous to give it to Joe, just because I

0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:05.080
<v Speaker 2>was like, I've kind of gone off the rails here

0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:07.800
<v Speaker 2>with like our standard like here's a pair of shoes,

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:12.360
<v Speaker 2>here's a sweater, here's you know, a new scarf. So

0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 2>I thought you were gonna like it, but it's still

0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:17.560
<v Speaker 2>nerve wracking. And I put so much thought work into it,

0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:19.480
<v Speaker 2>like I'd been like putting it all together for like

0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:21.360
<v Speaker 2>over a month. So I was like, man, if this

0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:23.200
<v Speaker 2>doesn't land, it's gonna really suck.

0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, next, next, next year, I'm going to have to

0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:30.160
<v Speaker 1>get you an experience of some sort.

0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.200
<v Speaker 2>You don't have to. You always give me a great gift.

0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Joe got me a pair of black loafers that I

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:38.000
<v Speaker 2>really wanted. Yeah, they were gorgeous and great. It's honest,

0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:39.520
<v Speaker 2>exactly what I wanted him to get me. So I

0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:40.120
<v Speaker 2>was very happy.

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but that also that kind of that like there's

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>no surprise to that, you know, like I feel like

0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:46.320
<v Speaker 1>you knew I was going to get you those.

0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:49.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean I didn't know for sure, Yeah, but it's

0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 2>like it was a really nice gift and it's something

0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:54.960
<v Speaker 2>that I probably wouldn't have gotten for myself. Sure, So

0:07:55.080 --> 0:07:57.679
<v Speaker 2>that's that's what. And I've worn them a bunch.

0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:01.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So then we went Toronto because it was your

0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:04.160
<v Speaker 1>turn this year. We went by your family in Toronto.

0:08:04.240 --> 0:08:07.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. The way Joe and I split up Christmases because

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:09.080
<v Speaker 2>obviously we live in New York, but he's from Chicago.

0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:12.080
<v Speaker 2>My faim is in Toronto. Is we alternate. So the

0:08:12.120 --> 0:08:14.560
<v Speaker 2>first year together, we did my family, last year we

0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 2>did his family, and then we get it. Oh okay,

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:18.920
<v Speaker 2>never mind, I'll just shut up.

0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:23.680
<v Speaker 1>In you love talking about the alternating.

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm just explaining it to people. I feel like it's

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:30.760
<v Speaker 2>a very common thing of like how people in relationships

0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 2>divide up Christmases, like people that live in the same place.

0:08:34.320 --> 0:08:36.880
<v Speaker 2>It's like, okay, who's like we go to Christmas Eve

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 2>for my dad and then we go to you know,

0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.760
<v Speaker 2>Thanksgiving for his mom and the whole thing.

0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:43.720
<v Speaker 1>First thing we did, but we got to Toronto, we

0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:44.200
<v Speaker 1>went to eat.

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:45.839
<v Speaker 2>All Joe's done talking about that.

0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:49.400
<v Speaker 1>First thing we did was we went to Italy and

0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:51.400
<v Speaker 1>it's very Italy's very Christmasy.

0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 2>It actually, yeah, it was really it was more Christmasy

0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 2>than I expected.

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:58.560
<v Speaker 1>And I got a Tara massou lat you did.

0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:01.400
<v Speaker 2>We went to lunch with my friends, my best friends

0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:03.800
<v Speaker 2>and her boyfriend and my sister was there and it

0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:06.240
<v Speaker 2>was actually, yeah, it was. We drove right downtown and

0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:09.720
<v Speaker 2>it was super Christmas dy. We're in Yorkville for whoever, And.

0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:14.560
<v Speaker 1>I would say, are the standout of Toronto was probably

0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:18.000
<v Speaker 1>Christmas Eve night and your mom's prime rib.

0:09:18.480 --> 0:09:21.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we don't really have any Christmas Eve traditions because

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:23.240
<v Speaker 2>we used to go to my grandparents and now we're

0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:26.640
<v Speaker 2>doing Christmas Eve brunch slash lunch in my grandparents. So

0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 2>my mom was like, what do you want for dinner?

0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:31.560
<v Speaker 2>And Joe and I were both like, oh, like prime

0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 2>rib dips would be great if you want to know.

0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:37.640
<v Speaker 1>She offered between two things that we chose the prime. Yes, yes,

0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:40.840
<v Speaker 1>we weren't just like make sandwich.

0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:44.160
<v Speaker 2>No, no, that wasn't an idea of our own. She

0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:45.800
<v Speaker 2>was like, I could I want to just do something

0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:47.880
<v Speaker 2>in the crockpot so I can let it sit all day.

0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:50.719
<v Speaker 2>Do you want like prime rib sandwiches? Or do you

0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:53.360
<v Speaker 2>want this chicken stew that she makes us really delicious?

0:09:53.360 --> 0:09:55.559
<v Speaker 2>And weally got prime sandwich is sound great? But it

0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:58.560
<v Speaker 2>was so good, truly, it was delicious. I ate like

0:09:58.600 --> 0:09:59.160
<v Speaker 2>three of them.

0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:00.480
<v Speaker 1>They were really really good.

0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:02.839
<v Speaker 2>We went to so many restaurants. We went to really

0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:05.559
<v Speaker 2>good restaurants when we were in Toronto, and honestly, it

0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:07.240
<v Speaker 2>was my favorite thing that I ate was my mom's

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:08.800
<v Speaker 2>crackpot primer sandwich.

0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:11.360
<v Speaker 1>And we can't take the recipe because now that is

0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:12.280
<v Speaker 1>a tradition.

0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:14.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, she we've made them before. Do you know that

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:15.480
<v Speaker 2>we've made that recipe?

0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:17.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but we made it with beef chap. Yeah, we

0:10:17.320 --> 0:10:18.120
<v Speaker 1>didn't use the same.

0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:19.800
<v Speaker 2>And honestly, it just wasn't as good as how my

0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:21.360
<v Speaker 2>mom made I think we like rushed it. She let

0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:22.960
<v Speaker 2>her sit for like eight hours, I feel like.

0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:33.679
<v Speaker 1>And then another standout was what we got your dad

0:10:33.920 --> 0:10:37.400
<v Speaker 1>the dry sauna for two days. Yeah. So there's a

0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:42.760
<v Speaker 1>company in Toronto that delivers dry saunas to a big

0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:47.040
<v Speaker 1>dry sauna to your home and you could rent it

0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:48.880
<v Speaker 1>for two days. So that's what we did. We rented

0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:50.719
<v Speaker 1>it for two days. It was in the dry for a.

0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Bunch of days. It's just like a per day, per day.

0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Rate and it's wood fire sauna. It was.

0:10:57.880 --> 0:11:00.800
<v Speaker 2>It was awesome, It was hilarious. I don't know. My

0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:04.280
<v Speaker 2>mom had mentioned like, I think that your dad might

0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:06.360
<v Speaker 2>like this. He was kind of looking at one. My

0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:08.920
<v Speaker 2>dad's a big, like experienced guy. He likes me busy,

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:10.760
<v Speaker 2>he likes activities. So we were like, I feel like

0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:13.840
<v Speaker 2>this would be fun for the holidays. They literally drive

0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:15.560
<v Speaker 2>it up, they park it. It's like the length of

0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 2>an suv, maybe like a foot taller than suv, so

0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:20.840
<v Speaker 2>it's not that big. We got one that fits like

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:22.320
<v Speaker 2>sixty to eight people.

0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Eight people would have been tight, but you could fit.

0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:27.199
<v Speaker 1>You could fit eight people in there, for.

0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:29.560
<v Speaker 2>Sure, you could. But I feel like you like six

0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:32.599
<v Speaker 2>would have been yeah, yeah, yeah, And they parked it

0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:34.680
<v Speaker 2>in our driveway and they give you a bunch of

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:37.280
<v Speaker 2>wood and you basically put wood in the back of

0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 2>it and make a fire and heats up. It got

0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 2>really hot. At one time I was really struggling in it.

0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:44.840
<v Speaker 1>I got that thing up to two hundred degrees.

0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:47.200
<v Speaker 2>That's wild. I feel like that's a little dangerous.

0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think next time though, we do that and

0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:50.600
<v Speaker 1>a cold plunge.

0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:52.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, joe the min I told him that's what we

0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:55.680
<v Speaker 2>were getting. My dad was looking for renta both cold plunges.

0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:57.560
<v Speaker 1>But that was great. That was a great gift. I

0:11:57.640 --> 0:11:58.240
<v Speaker 1>love that thing.

0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, it was a gift for the whole to

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:03.319
<v Speaker 2>be honest, which I feel like my dad likes those things.

0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:05.719
<v Speaker 1>If we move out, if we ever move out of

0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.640
<v Speaker 1>a New York apartment, I definitely want to get a

0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 1>sauna in a house in our house.

0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:13.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean yeah, if we can ever make that happen.

0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:17.840
<v Speaker 2>There's actually there's this influencer that I follow in Australia.

0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:19.920
<v Speaker 2>She has a sauna in her backyard.

0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:22.680
<v Speaker 1>My friend Joey is building one in his backyard. It's

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:25.760
<v Speaker 1>not that it's not is extravagant.

0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:28.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've told me how much it was. And like

0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:30.960
<v Speaker 2>in my mind, like an at home sauna is like

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.280
<v Speaker 2>the height of luxury. And I know this is actually

0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:35.080
<v Speaker 2>kind of no do this.

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:40.880
<v Speaker 1>It's affordable and he's using a really reputable company company.

0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:43.320
<v Speaker 2>So well, if we ever have a backyard big enough,

0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:45.160
<v Speaker 2>you'll have your suna in your cult blood Do you

0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:47.520
<v Speaker 2>ever have a backyard, If we ever have a backyard, Yeah,

0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:49.319
<v Speaker 2>we're really dedicated to apartment living.

0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:52.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I actually yeah, apartment living is actually great though.

0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 2>It is great if you guys follow us in his stream,

0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:57.120
<v Speaker 2>we saw our like bedroom ceiling was looking real bad.

0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:59.440
<v Speaker 2>That's the only downside. But then the upside is we

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:01.640
<v Speaker 2>fix they fix it because you're in an apartment.

0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Because if I have to fix it, we have a

0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:03.800
<v Speaker 1>big problem.

0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:05.640
<v Speaker 2>You can't fix it. That's the problem.

0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:06.080
<v Speaker 1>I know.

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:10.040
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, and then oh we also so my aunt

0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:13.280
<v Speaker 2>gets all my cousins like an activity every single year,

0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:17.920
<v Speaker 2>and we all went paintballing and I literally got whacked

0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:20.680
<v Speaker 2>in the thigh. I still I still am bruised, Like

0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:22.400
<v Speaker 2>I still have a bruise from the paintball.

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.040
<v Speaker 1>You have a major well yeah, I think it.

0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:25.440
<v Speaker 2>Chill it's huge.

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:26.400
<v Speaker 1>I think it shot once.

0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's crazy it hit like three times.

0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think it shot once.

0:13:31.360 --> 0:13:33.520
<v Speaker 2>No, that's so lucky. That was a stand up moment

0:13:33.760 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 2>just from the anxiety and the pain, but it ended

0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:38.320
<v Speaker 2>up being kind of fun. Once you like get comfortable,

0:13:38.360 --> 0:13:38.960
<v Speaker 2>it's more fun.

0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:43.280
<v Speaker 1>And then we got back to New York and day

0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:47.920
<v Speaker 1>before New Year's Yeah, New Year's Eve, we pretty much chilled.

0:13:47.920 --> 0:13:50.600
<v Speaker 1>We went by some friends out here in New York,

0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.000
<v Speaker 1>went by their place. We left by like eleven, so

0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:57.360
<v Speaker 1>we weren't stuck in crazy New York traffic.

0:13:57.520 --> 0:14:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. And then we just watched the ball drop from

0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:01.440
<v Speaker 2>our apartment.

0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.719
<v Speaker 2>It's so crazy that like you can you can say, like, oh,

0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:06.800
<v Speaker 2>we watched the ball drop and everyone knows what that is.

0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Like it's such an iconic symbol, like the ball dropping

0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:13.040
<v Speaker 2>in times for on New Year's Yeah, and when.

0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:14.640
<v Speaker 1>We do that. Last year we were we were in

0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Chicago for New Year's Yeah, because we stayed. We stayed

0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:18.000

0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:21.840

0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.280

0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:27.600
<v Speaker 2>on this podcast. You talked so much shit about Ted Lasso,

0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:30.280

0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I want to be on a beach. Yeah, I'm really really,

0:15:16.320 --> 0:15:19.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I'm really I was a big seasons guy.

0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:25.000
<v Speaker 1>I love the holidays, but right after Christmas, I'm over it. Yeah,

0:15:25.040 --> 0:15:25.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm over it.

0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:29.760
<v Speaker 2>You are, like the build up to Christmas. Once Christmas

0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:33.200
<v Speaker 2>is done, it's like, it's nice to be somewhere warm.

0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, it was a rough time after the twenty fifth,

0:15:35.640 --> 0:15:38.600
<v Speaker 1>like even the twenty fifth, but that's fine because it

0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:42.359
<v Speaker 1>is still like the Christmas you know, feeling.

0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:43.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so festive.

0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was just gray and rainy every single day. Right,

0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:50.720
<v Speaker 1>I need to see the sun.

0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:55.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Joe looks at the sun every morning as part.

0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Of his No, I don't really. I wish I could

0:15:58.000 --> 0:15:59.400
<v Speaker 1>do that. I wish I could, but we don't really

0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 1>get the sun all the time out here.

0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:04.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I know. I'm not against that at all,

0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:05.600
<v Speaker 2>to be honest.

0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:08.960
<v Speaker 1>And then the reason we missed Gary and Teresa's wedding.

0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I was in Scottsdale, yeah, which got some sun.

0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:16.400
<v Speaker 2>There you go. And I was in Miami slash on

0:16:16.400 --> 0:16:16.800
<v Speaker 2>a cruise.

0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:18.920
<v Speaker 1>And I also went to Vegas, but I was on

0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:20.680
<v Speaker 1>the West coast, so Vegas for a few days.

0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, oh the sun. The sun's coming in through a

0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:26.640
<v Speaker 2>perman actually right now. Honestly, it's just like getting away

0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:28.040
<v Speaker 2>for a few days to get a little sun and

0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:30.800
<v Speaker 2>a little warmth just makes you realize how hard the

0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:34.000
<v Speaker 2>winter's hit. When you're on the East Coast, You're just like, Wow,

0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:37.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm a whole different person. I know a few degrees warmer,

0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:38.600
<v Speaker 2>and it's it.

0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:40.960
<v Speaker 1>What's so crazy is like I think I said this

0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:44.200
<v Speaker 1>to you the other day. It's like we almost I

0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:46.400
<v Speaker 1>forget what it feels like to walk out of the

0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:47.640
<v Speaker 1>house with a T shirt in.

0:16:48.000 --> 0:16:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because every time I step outside of our building,

0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:52.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm like bracing myself to get whacked by the wind.

0:16:52.640 --> 0:16:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and that we have the where we live.

0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:56.880
<v Speaker 2>The windows Palm Springs also would have been a nice

0:16:56.880 --> 0:16:59.040
<v Speaker 2>warm getaway too. It's a good spot.

0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Maybe maybe we got to try to to I

0:17:05.320 --> 0:17:07.439
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I'll figure out in the winter to be

0:17:07.560 --> 0:17:08.359
<v Speaker 1>somewhere warm for.

0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:10.679
<v Speaker 2>You know, we say this every winter. I know we

0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:12.400
<v Speaker 2>say this every year. Do you have any New Year's

0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:16.080
<v Speaker 2>resolutions this year?

0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Not really. I feel like I'm pretty regiment on my

0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:27.560
<v Speaker 1>gym and exercising. Uh Less, paper towels.

0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:31.800
<v Speaker 2>We use a lot of use a lot of paper towels. Yeah.

0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 2>I think the thing with paper towels is like it's

0:17:36.520 --> 0:17:38.760
<v Speaker 2>so easy. You rub a paper towel, you wipe down

0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:41.280
<v Speaker 2>the counter, you throw it away. If I use a towel,

0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:43.680
<v Speaker 2>I have to immediately throw it in the wash, and

0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:46.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm going through then like a bunch of towels because

0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:49.600
<v Speaker 2>we wipe down our counters like every single time we

0:17:49.680 --> 0:17:54.639
<v Speaker 2>eat or clean or cook. So it's like then I'm

0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:58.080
<v Speaker 2>going through five paper towels a day or five like

0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:00.720
<v Speaker 2>towels a day, and then I'm running the wash a bunch.

0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:02.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. We got to find a better solution

0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:05.879
<v Speaker 2>if anyone out there has a better solution for having

0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:10.919
<v Speaker 2>an efficient cleaning system not using paper towels, because we

0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:13.439
<v Speaker 2>are using so and it's not like it's like it

0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:15.720
<v Speaker 2>is wasteful, like we're using them for a purpose, but

0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:18.359
<v Speaker 2>it's like, well, I'm al trying so many rolls of

0:18:18.359 --> 0:18:19.480
<v Speaker 2>paper towels.

0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:23.080
<v Speaker 1>And I'll this is gonna be twelve minutes of this

0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:25.000
<v Speaker 1>podcast is going to be about paper towels. But I

0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:27.720
<v Speaker 1>will clean with the paper towels and then I will

0:18:27.880 --> 0:18:30.639
<v Speaker 1>wash my hands and then take more paper towels and

0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:31.720
<v Speaker 1>dry my hands.

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh really, you dry your hands with paper towels, Joe,

0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:37.600
<v Speaker 2>we have we don't like, Yes, we have towels sitting

0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:40.399
<v Speaker 2>on the by the stove.

0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:41.720
<v Speaker 1>I never use those.

0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:45.280
<v Speaker 2>Why not? I don't know, Well that should be that's

0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:48.040
<v Speaker 2>step one right there, and using less paper towels, using

0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:49.640
<v Speaker 2>the hand towels to dry your hands.

0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:53.399
<v Speaker 1>Do you have a some sort of a goal you

0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:55.840
<v Speaker 1>would like to accomplish in twenty twenty four?

0:18:56.840 --> 0:19:04.280
<v Speaker 2>A goal? Yeah, that's so hard. I feel like I

0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:09.040
<v Speaker 2>have like personal here's my thing. I'm not really a

0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:11.000
<v Speaker 2>New Year's goal person. Like I feel like I don't

0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:13.960
<v Speaker 2>wake up in twenty twenty four or whatever new year

0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:17.359
<v Speaker 2>it is and say like, these are my big specific

0:19:17.400 --> 0:19:20.120
<v Speaker 2>goals for the year. I find them like very intimidating.

0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:23.160
<v Speaker 1>I agree. I'm a mid season honestly, Like.

0:19:23.320 --> 0:19:25.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm making goals all year round, so it's like I'm

0:19:25.800 --> 0:19:28.919
<v Speaker 2>not starting anything that's brand new of like this is

0:19:28.920 --> 0:19:30.760
<v Speaker 2>what I want to accomplish this year. It's like I've

0:19:30.760 --> 0:19:35.280
<v Speaker 2>already been thinking about this year halfway through last year. Yeah,

0:19:35.359 --> 0:19:36.160
<v Speaker 2>does that make sense?

0:19:36.280 --> 0:19:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Yeah, definitely. I'm a mid year type of like

0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:43.240
<v Speaker 1>set goals mid year. I did. I did see an

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:45.520
<v Speaker 1>article though this is kind of it's kind of on

0:19:45.600 --> 0:19:50.800
<v Speaker 1>top of kind of off, but an article that was

0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:58.320
<v Speaker 1>like the depression after the holidays and coming back and

0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:02.720
<v Speaker 1>being depressed over your finances and everything else. I'm like, yeah,

0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:06.040
<v Speaker 1>that is so real because for that little pocket, that

0:20:06.200 --> 0:20:09.760
<v Speaker 1>the holiday pocket of like buying gifts for people and all,

0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:12.159
<v Speaker 1>you you tend not to worry about.

0:20:11.920 --> 0:20:13.919
<v Speaker 2>Like no, because it's like the season of giving and

0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.040
<v Speaker 2>it's the holidays, and you kind of just like embrace

0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:18.840
<v Speaker 2>you're going to be spending more money than usual.

0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:20.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's like we get and then you.

0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:22.240
<v Speaker 2>Look back and you're like, oh damn.

0:20:22.160 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we get drunk on like holiday spirit. That's what

0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:24.760
<v Speaker 1>it is.

0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:27.240
<v Speaker 2>It's like, yes, that is a great was that from

0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:28.600
<v Speaker 2>the article? Do you just make that?

0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I just made that up? Because that's I feel like

0:20:30.520 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 1>that's what like kind of happens when people like if

0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:35.960
<v Speaker 1>you if you go off for drinks because you're like

0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:40.040
<v Speaker 1>stressed out or something, you know, it usually subsides the

0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 1>stress and then you get back into it and you're like ah,

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:45.879
<v Speaker 1>the next day you're like ah, that's I'm still upset

0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:46.280
<v Speaker 1>about that.

0:20:46.640 --> 0:20:48.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I No, you do get you do get drunk

0:20:48.720 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 2>on holiday spirit, and it's just like it's the holidays,

0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:56.200
<v Speaker 2>Like calories don't count, glasses of wine don't count, credit

0:20:56.240 --> 0:20:59.720
<v Speaker 2>card dollars don't count. Nothing counts it's just magic all

0:20:59.760 --> 0:21:03.360
<v Speaker 2>around and then New Year's ends and you're like, oh, wow,

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:10.920
<v Speaker 2>back to reality.

0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:13.840
<v Speaker 1>I really enjoyed the way we did it this year.

0:21:13.880 --> 0:21:16.919
<v Speaker 1>We did the whole like holiday Christmas movie.

0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:18.120
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, that was fun.

0:21:18.240 --> 0:21:20.719
<v Speaker 1>That was a little too long. I think we were sly.

0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:24.200
<v Speaker 1>We were stuck in the we we were We got

0:21:24.240 --> 0:21:25.280
<v Speaker 1>really drunk on the.

0:21:25.200 --> 0:21:27.679
<v Speaker 2>Holiday spirit because we were watching a month full of

0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:28.920
<v Speaker 2>our Christmas movie schedule.

0:21:29.040 --> 0:21:29.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:21:29.520 --> 0:21:32.399
<v Speaker 2>I liked that though, I think we could. I think

0:21:32.560 --> 0:21:35.359
<v Speaker 2>it was just hard because in my mind I was like, oh,

0:21:35.359 --> 0:21:37.240
<v Speaker 2>we could throw a movie on like during the day.

0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:41.800
<v Speaker 2>But we had a really really busy like September honestly,

0:21:41.840 --> 0:21:43.560
<v Speaker 2>like it was a really busy year. But I feel

0:21:43.600 --> 0:21:45.480
<v Speaker 2>like the second half of this year was just really

0:21:45.520 --> 0:21:49.480
<v Speaker 2>busy with work and it ended up being like we're

0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:51.359
<v Speaker 2>watching a movie every night. That was the only thing

0:21:51.359 --> 0:21:54.000
<v Speaker 2>we're watching, Like we were watching any TV. We were

0:21:54.240 --> 0:21:56.600
<v Speaker 2>We were like half watching most of these movies. It

0:21:56.680 --> 0:21:59.800
<v Speaker 2>was just like overboard on Christmas content. It was all

0:21:59.840 --> 0:22:02.240
<v Speaker 2>I was putting into my body and my mind was

0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Christmas content.

0:22:03.200 --> 0:22:09.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this year, if we could go one place in

0:22:09.320 --> 0:22:13.080
<v Speaker 1>the world for vacation, Yeah, where would you like that?

0:22:13.240 --> 0:22:15.880
<v Speaker 1>One place to be only one, because we've talked about multiple.

0:22:16.000 --> 0:22:20.200
<v Speaker 2>I know that's so hard because yeah, for listeners, Joe

0:22:20.280 --> 0:22:23.720
<v Speaker 2>and I the last two years their third like year

0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:26.680
<v Speaker 2>full year together, we've gone on one big trip. So

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:29.239
<v Speaker 2>our first year together we went to Spain. We did

0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:31.240
<v Speaker 2>three places in Spain. Last year we had our honeymoon,

0:22:31.240 --> 0:22:32.919
<v Speaker 2>we went to Italy, three places in Italy. And this

0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:34.840
<v Speaker 2>year we're kind of trying to decide what we want

0:22:35.320 --> 0:22:38.040
<v Speaker 2>our trip to beau. As much as we travel a lot,

0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:40.120
<v Speaker 2>A lot of the time we're traveling to like Toronto, Chicago,

0:22:40.200 --> 0:22:42.680
<v Speaker 2>or traveling for work, so we usually do like one

0:22:42.800 --> 0:22:46.239
<v Speaker 2>like vacation trip together a year. And I think, as

0:22:46.320 --> 0:22:49.240
<v Speaker 2>much as I've been talking forever about wanting to go

0:22:49.240 --> 0:22:52.400
<v Speaker 2>to Hawaii, and I'm still into that idea if it happens,

0:22:52.840 --> 0:22:55.600
<v Speaker 2>I do think I want to do like Japan. Okay,

0:22:56.640 --> 0:23:00.400
<v Speaker 2>I think I do. And honestly, after talking to some

0:23:00.440 --> 0:23:02.800
<v Speaker 2>friends of mine who we went for dinner with who

0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:05.760
<v Speaker 2>have like been there, I talked about how amazing it was,

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:08.680
<v Speaker 2>And you've been to Japan and I've never been. I

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:10.639
<v Speaker 2>don't think I've been anywhere.

0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:14.159
<v Speaker 1>To me, it's to this day it's still my favorite

0:23:14.160 --> 0:23:15.040
<v Speaker 1>place I've ever been.

0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:17.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I love sushi.

0:23:17.359 --> 0:23:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and the best sushi.

0:23:19.040 --> 0:23:22.840
<v Speaker 2>You you really love Japanese culture. I think it would

0:23:22.880 --> 0:23:25.400
<v Speaker 2>be really fun. The thing that intimidates me about it

0:23:25.440 --> 0:23:29.280
<v Speaker 2>is the time change and the flight and the language barrier.

0:23:30.920 --> 0:23:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Ye in Tokyo. In Tokyo, they were so helpful really

0:23:39.040 --> 0:23:41.159
<v Speaker 1>when you didn't when you couldn't speak the language, they

0:23:41.160 --> 0:23:44.760
<v Speaker 1>were so amazing. It was actually it was easy in

0:23:44.840 --> 0:23:49.320
<v Speaker 1>the the subway system over there. You know, it's obviously

0:23:49.400 --> 0:23:51.800
<v Speaker 1>all in a different language, but it's still it's still

0:23:51.800 --> 0:23:55.959
<v Speaker 1>pretty easy to get around. Yeah, I I really I agree.

0:23:56.240 --> 0:23:57.560
<v Speaker 2>Is that where you would want to go if you

0:23:57.560 --> 0:23:58.440
<v Speaker 2>could do one place?

0:23:58.560 --> 0:24:01.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I say Asia. I would just maybe.

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Where were the other place for talking about soul?

0:24:02.600 --> 0:24:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Soul? South Korea? I've never been to Thailand, so like

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:09.320
<v Speaker 1>that would also be cool. Yeah, I just And then

0:24:09.400 --> 0:24:11.440
<v Speaker 1>then the debate, it's like how long do you want

0:24:11.480 --> 0:24:12.119
<v Speaker 1>to be away for?

0:24:13.119 --> 0:24:14.800
<v Speaker 2>Because it's just so hard to be away for more

0:24:14.840 --> 0:24:17.719
<v Speaker 2>than ten days? Yeah, like ten days. We did our

0:24:17.760 --> 0:24:19.639
<v Speaker 2>last two trips for ten days. We did Spain and

0:24:19.720 --> 0:24:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Italy for ten days, and I just think that's.

0:24:21.880 --> 0:24:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Well Asia, It is a longer flight and I think

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:27.800
<v Speaker 1>we would need to do it for at least thirteen

0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:31.240
<v Speaker 1>thirteen days two weeks. I think two weeks is good.

0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I'm with you on that.

0:24:34.320 --> 0:24:37.040
<v Speaker 2>Do you want to hear my news resolution intentions?

0:24:37.200 --> 0:24:38.919
<v Speaker 1>Oh? Yeah, okay, I thought you were in a New

0:24:39.000 --> 0:24:39.880
<v Speaker 1>Year's resumece.

0:24:39.600 --> 0:24:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm not, but I did. I did set some like

0:24:42.160 --> 0:24:44.280
<v Speaker 2>intentions for the year, like small things that I want

0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:46.200
<v Speaker 2>to try to work on, but not like specific where

0:24:46.200 --> 0:24:48.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm like I'm going to work out six days a

0:24:48.320 --> 0:24:50.359
<v Speaker 2>week for the rest of the year, Like I'm only

0:24:50.359 --> 0:24:52.160
<v Speaker 2>going to use my phone for ten minutes a day,

0:24:52.280 --> 0:24:55.880
<v Speaker 2>like I just have overall things. So one thing is

0:24:56.520 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 2>I want to I think I totally said I want

0:24:58.600 --> 0:25:01.199
<v Speaker 2>to work on not scrolling in bed before we go

0:25:01.200 --> 0:25:01.639
<v Speaker 2>to sleep.

0:25:02.760 --> 0:25:05.600
<v Speaker 1>Because look, and when you when you say these things,

0:25:05.760 --> 0:25:11.080
<v Speaker 1>then are you are you inviting me to criticize?

0:25:11.320 --> 0:25:14.760
<v Speaker 2>No, I'm not inviting you to do that. Well, like

0:25:14.800 --> 0:25:16.400
<v Speaker 2>you could yeah, like if I'm like sitting in bed

0:25:16.440 --> 0:25:18.440
<v Speaker 2>actually scrolling, you could be like are you going to read?

0:25:18.480 --> 0:25:20.439
<v Speaker 2>Like the other night You're like, hey, are you going

0:25:20.480 --> 0:25:21.879
<v Speaker 2>to read? Like why don't you read your book? And

0:25:21.880 --> 0:25:23.520
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh, yeah, you're right, because sometimes I

0:25:23.560 --> 0:25:25.159
<v Speaker 2>get like caught up and it's just habit, you know

0:25:25.160 --> 0:25:28.880
<v Speaker 2>what I mean. Yeah, And I enjoy it when I'm

0:25:28.920 --> 0:25:30.760
<v Speaker 2>like reading or if we just like watch a sitcom

0:25:30.880 --> 0:25:32.280
<v Speaker 2>or something in bad because I feel like I do

0:25:32.320 --> 0:25:33.960
<v Speaker 2>so much scrolling during the day and so much time

0:25:33.960 --> 0:25:36.520
<v Speaker 2>on social media because of our jobs that at night

0:25:36.560 --> 0:25:37.919
<v Speaker 2>time I don't need to be doing it. And then

0:25:37.960 --> 0:25:41.040
<v Speaker 2>I had another one, but I can't remember what it was.

0:25:41.600 --> 0:25:46.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm being honest. I wrote it down somewhere. But oh,

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:48.400
<v Speaker 2>and I feel like I really worked on time management

0:25:48.480 --> 0:25:51.080
<v Speaker 2>this year. When I'm at home in Toronto, I've gotten

0:25:51.119 --> 0:25:53.080
<v Speaker 2>like much better with my time management, so I want

0:25:53.080 --> 0:25:55.639
<v Speaker 2>to be better about time management here as well. I

0:25:55.680 --> 0:25:59.000
<v Speaker 2>feel like I'm always kind of rushing out the door here, yeah,

0:25:59.040 --> 0:26:00.679
<v Speaker 2>and I can be better about that. So those are

0:26:00.720 --> 0:26:04.199
<v Speaker 2>my intentions for the air. Just general things to work on.

0:26:04.480 --> 0:26:09.159
<v Speaker 1>Nice I think I would like for me, uh yeah,

0:26:09.560 --> 0:26:13.520
<v Speaker 1>less paper towel use and probably more time for just

0:26:13.600 --> 0:26:19.720
<v Speaker 1>like breathing exercises a little more like at it meditation

0:26:20.359 --> 0:26:23.560
<v Speaker 1>every day. Yeah, just like even earlier today, I was

0:26:24.160 --> 0:26:28.040
<v Speaker 1>really stressed out and did some breathing techniques and that

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:30.200
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that that helps.

0:26:30.480 --> 0:26:31.960
<v Speaker 2>You know, what something else I think we could work

0:26:32.000 --> 0:26:34.240
<v Speaker 2>on this year. What it's hard because we live in

0:26:35.119 --> 0:26:37.560
<v Speaker 2>like a city, we live in a freaking concrete jungle.

0:26:37.880 --> 0:26:42.919
<v Speaker 2>But creating time to like be in nature.

0:26:44.880 --> 0:26:45.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but that's the thing, I know.

0:26:45.920 --> 0:26:47.800
<v Speaker 2>But like even just like going to Central Park and

0:26:47.840 --> 0:26:50.560
<v Speaker 2>like chilling there for like an hour in the summer. Yeah,

0:26:50.600 --> 0:26:52.320
<v Speaker 2>I know, it's like still in the city or like

0:26:53.040 --> 0:26:54.879
<v Speaker 2>it's just yeah, it's so hard when we're here. But

0:26:54.920 --> 0:26:58.359
<v Speaker 2>I do feel better when I spend more time in nature,

0:26:58.440 --> 0:27:00.560
<v Speaker 2>in nature, like not just outdoors, like nature. Like I

0:27:00.600 --> 0:27:02.439
<v Speaker 2>took a deep breath in the other day walking outside

0:27:02.440 --> 0:27:04.000
<v Speaker 2>in New York and like choked on smoke.

0:27:04.880 --> 0:27:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean that's that's.

0:27:06.359 --> 0:27:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Not giving like fresh air.

0:27:08.040 --> 0:27:10.720
<v Speaker 1>It's truly honestly in the thing. It's it's like I'm

0:27:10.760 --> 0:27:13.000
<v Speaker 1>from Chicago, you're from Toronto, and it's the same.

0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's no nature when we go home either, But I.

0:27:16.640 --> 0:27:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Guess we've never really had it our entire life.

0:27:18.800 --> 0:27:19.919
<v Speaker 2>That would be the cool thing if we did a

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:22.560
<v Speaker 2>Hawaii trip, because I feel like you can go hiking

0:27:22.960 --> 0:27:25.760
<v Speaker 2>and you can be by the water. I'm so much

0:27:25.760 --> 0:27:26.560
<v Speaker 2>happier by the water.

0:27:26.880 --> 0:27:29.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, well we can make him hopefully, maybe we

0:27:29.920 --> 0:27:31.480
<v Speaker 1>were lucky enough we could do both.

0:27:31.600 --> 0:27:34.720
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we'll see, we'll see what twenty twenty four has

0:27:34.760 --> 0:27:36.800
<v Speaker 2>in store for us. Twenty twenty three was a crazier

0:27:36.840 --> 0:27:40.600
<v Speaker 2>because we got married. It was our wedding, and it

0:27:40.640 --> 0:27:43.520
<v Speaker 2>was just like an exceptionally busy er. It felt like,

0:27:43.560 --> 0:27:46.720
<v Speaker 2>I guess, just like bridal shower, bachelor party, bachelor party.

0:27:47.359 --> 0:27:52.480
<v Speaker 1>If I were to read twenty twenty three, if I

0:27:52.480 --> 0:27:54.840
<v Speaker 1>were to rate twenty twenty three on a scale of

0:27:54.880 --> 0:28:01.240
<v Speaker 1>one to ten, ten being good, ten being the best, yeah, obviously,

0:28:01.320 --> 0:28:05.320
<v Speaker 1>one being the absolute worst. I've been pretty lucky in

0:28:05.359 --> 0:28:07.000
<v Speaker 1>my life. I would never say I had a year

0:28:07.000 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 1>that was a one. Like there's always been some some

0:28:11.040 --> 0:28:15.560
<v Speaker 1>highlights within my year, but let's just say, like, yeah,

0:28:15.600 --> 0:28:18.760
<v Speaker 1>like a really rough year, like a twenty twenty Yeah

0:28:18.760 --> 0:28:21.800
<v Speaker 1>is let's call it, you know whatever, A four or five. Yeah,

0:28:22.359 --> 0:28:27.440
<v Speaker 1>I would rate. I would rate twenty twenty three being

0:28:27.600 --> 0:28:30.680
<v Speaker 1>one of my better years I've lived.

0:28:30.800 --> 0:28:32.520
<v Speaker 2>I agree. I think so too.

0:28:32.680 --> 0:28:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Like it's a high great year. It's in the

0:28:36.680 --> 0:28:39.000
<v Speaker 1>it's in the upper eight slow nines.

0:28:39.480 --> 0:28:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I agree. We had a really exciting positive

0:28:44.160 --> 0:28:47.000
<v Speaker 2>year career wise. I mean, we got to the Mabeling commercial,

0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:49.920
<v Speaker 2>which was amazing. We got to work on this podcast,

0:28:50.680 --> 0:28:53.480
<v Speaker 2>we worked with some great brands, and then also personally,

0:28:53.920 --> 0:28:57.120
<v Speaker 2>we got married, We traveled a little bit. I feel like,

0:28:57.200 --> 0:28:58.880
<v Speaker 2>I will say, by the end of twenty twenty three,

0:28:59.240 --> 0:29:02.360
<v Speaker 2>the last few months I was struggling with some burnout

0:29:02.960 --> 0:29:06.680
<v Speaker 2>for sure. Yeah, so that was a little bit difficult.

0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:11.600
<v Speaker 2>But I feel really good after the holiday break, and

0:29:11.640 --> 0:29:14.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to try to not burn out in twenty

0:29:14.320 --> 0:29:17.120
<v Speaker 2>twenty four. But it was a lot of positive things. No,

0:29:17.200 --> 0:29:19.320
<v Speaker 2>it's hard to feel like it was a great year.

0:29:19.400 --> 0:29:20.600
<v Speaker 2>I want to do anything differently.

0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:22.640
<v Speaker 1>The only thing that makes me worried is that it

0:29:22.680 --> 0:29:25.480
<v Speaker 1>was such a great year. I hope that twenty twenty

0:29:25.520 --> 0:29:26.880
<v Speaker 1>four is just as good.

0:29:27.400 --> 0:29:29.080
<v Speaker 2>It will be. It'll just be different, you know. Like

0:29:29.120 --> 0:29:32.640
<v Speaker 2>we're not planning a wedding this year, so that's we

0:29:32.680 --> 0:29:34.040
<v Speaker 2>can take that off the plate.

0:29:33.880 --> 0:29:36.760
<v Speaker 1>And we won't be in Lake Homo this Year's unfortunate.

0:29:37.120 --> 0:29:39.200
<v Speaker 2>No, it could be. If you want to skip out

0:29:39.240 --> 0:29:42.200
<v Speaker 2>on Japan, we just go to Lake Homo instead. We

0:29:42.360 --> 0:29:44.760
<v Speaker 2>just really have a reoccurring trip to Lake Como.

0:29:45.000 --> 0:29:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I would be honestly, I would be down for that, Okay.

0:29:48.320 --> 0:29:52.080
