Speaker 1: You all know you're a secretary to your kids. The
Speaker 1: other day, I get off a flight and I had
Speaker 1: booked a weekend that I wasn't gonna go visit Paul,
Speaker 1: my fiancee, because we had to be here. Brent had
Speaker 1: a party, a kids party about Mitzvah party, and she
Speaker 1: has to go. And it's the outfits and it's the
Speaker 1: whole thing. And she's pretty chill. She'll do her own makeup,
Speaker 1: her own hair. I see kids getting their hair done
Speaker 1: all the ship. She's totally totally chill, cute, age appropriate dress.
Speaker 1: I'm so lucky in that apartment. But then she tells
Speaker 1: me she's going to the movies. That can she go
Speaker 1: to the movies on Friday? And then can she has
Speaker 1: to go to the movies? We have to change And
Speaker 1: she said she wasn't going to the Botto miz fun.
Speaker 1: She wanted could we go to go visit Paul? And
Speaker 1: he has his own plans in his own goddamn life.
Speaker 1: And I found myself. I found myself as if it's
Speaker 1: like a speaking engagement or I'm doing the Today's Show,
Speaker 1: or I'm talking about relief work on Fox or whatever
Speaker 1: it is. I'm talking in circles. I'm like looking at
Speaker 1: my assistant, like you need an assistant for your kids.
Speaker 1: I'm like her, I'm like, we have to change Friday
Speaker 1: because Saturday, and now we're gonna go here and she
Speaker 1: wants to go there and we're not doing about Mitzvah,
Speaker 1: but that's gonna happen. And then Paul said his kids
Speaker 1: had a thing going on, and I'm circulating with his
Speaker 1: kids and what's going on with that schedule of their
Speaker 1: sports and my daughter's sports. And then she has a
Speaker 1: movie and we're not going to the party, and then
Speaker 1: it changed the whole weekend. I would have been in
Speaker 1: the Hamptons, but now instead I'm not in the Hamptons
Speaker 1: and I'm in Connecticut because we're not going to the
Speaker 1: fucking going to the bat mitzpun She's doing a movie
Speaker 1: because she's got her own social schedule. I'm like, I
Speaker 1: am a secretary, Like I couldn't believe it. I was
Speaker 1: a secretary with a a typewriter and a headset. Like
Speaker 1: they used to make fun on Saturday, like hello, welcome
Speaker 1: to that, and you have that or Carol Bonetta thing,
Speaker 1: you have this line out coming off a hair coll
Speaker 1: caller moving that moving moving those chords. I'm using my
Speaker 1: hands furiously moving those little chords on a switchboard. I
Speaker 1: was a switchboard operator. And then I said to Brian.
Speaker 1: I said to my child, Hi, I have a life too, okay,
Speaker 1: because she was like, wait, well, I want to go
Speaker 1: to the movie right after school, but then after that,
Speaker 1: if you could come get me, I'm like, oh, five
Speaker 1: o'clock traffic coming from the city going to Connecticut. So
Speaker 1: you t me to go in the fucking eye of
Speaker 1: the storm two and a half hours where should normally
Speaker 1: be forty minutes. No problem, I am a life too.
Speaker 1: Now you have to live in the city. You booked
Speaker 1: something on a Friday and rush our traffic. No, you're
Speaker 1: moving there. Get a job, rent an apartment, hire a secretary.
Speaker 1: Whoever you're going to the movie with. Let him you're
Speaker 1: his problem. Now it's a it's a little tween, Dave.
Speaker 1: Tell him to rent you an apartment, or you can
Speaker 1: move into his house. Three boys and girls can live
Speaker 1: together and happy harmony. Harmony. You you listen, you're a tween.
Speaker 1: You're becoming a young woman. It's an arranged marriage. Um,
Speaker 1: you're not coming home at five o'clock in rough rush
Speaker 1: hour traffic. So I don't care how we do this
Speaker 1: goddamn thing, but that's what's happening. You're not going or
Speaker 1: you're moving there. Make a choice, fucking secretary, you live
Speaker 1: there now. I was like, I found myself, go to
Speaker 1: change this, go to that. We gotta do this, we
Speaker 1: need the outfit, can't the bub And I was like, wait, what,
Speaker 1: I have a life too, well, why can't we do
Speaker 1: with this? And they always want to give you the
Speaker 1: They now work in the calendar, you know, scheduling that.
Speaker 1: Why can't you just do that? Well, I know I'm
Speaker 1: gonna explain myself to you and the rest of my staff.
Speaker 1: I have to do this Today show on Monday, so
Speaker 1: we can't do that that way. I have this on Friday.
Speaker 1: I have a podcast. I have a life too, girl,
Speaker 1: but I don't. And you know, we don't have a life.
Speaker 1: So that's also a fucking scam. We don't have a
Speaker 1: life because our whole life is spent book in their
Speaker 1: god damn activities and everything that go with it. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, a sport. I need the short choice, I
Speaker 1: need the kneepads, I need this, play dates, I need
Speaker 1: that this, I need that that and then we go
Speaker 1: into the next thing. What's the next thing? Then the
Speaker 1: birthday party, and the car trip and this and the
Speaker 1: homecoming and the Halloween and the costumes and the bake sales,
Speaker 1: and we're secretaries. You know you are, you know yourself.
Speaker 1: If you're doing a good job, you feel like a
Speaker 1: switchboard secretary the family and X of the family that
Speaker 1: I used to discuss a lot on here, I am
Speaker 1: not discussing because I'm on a cleanse. I'm not feeding
Speaker 1: any beasts that I don't want to go in the
Speaker 1: media sphere. So I'm not feeding those beasts. It will
Speaker 1: be hard. I already feel lighter and brighter, my skin
Speaker 1: feels better, I feel healthier. It's a detox. I will
Speaker 1: be not following anything overly filtered or talking about the
Speaker 1: beasts that we put into power. But we feed the beasts,
Speaker 1: and then the beast becomes so powerful, and then they
Speaker 1: say something or do something and it really bothers us
Speaker 1: and we wonder why. And it wouldn't have been such
Speaker 1: a big powerful statement if we didn't keep feeding the beasts.
Speaker 1: So I'm not feeding the beasts. I am not talking
Speaker 1: about some of the things I used to talk about
Speaker 1: because I don't want to be feel toxic by feeding
Speaker 1: the beast. I need you to know that when I
Speaker 1: watch television or movies, I look at their homes like i'll, i'll,
Speaker 1: we'll be what we could be watching Yellowstone or that three,
Speaker 1: the prequel to which is actually I like it. It's long,
Speaker 1: and I like long winded shows that like a drag
Speaker 1: out because I need them to drag out, because I
Speaker 1: want them to last. But they don't pay off right away.
Speaker 1: You have to be patient. But they're all like horses
Speaker 1: on the prairie, like covered wagons, and I just keep
Speaker 1: thinking about how dirty they are. I'm preoccupied about how
Speaker 1: every inch of their body, all the crevices are dirty,
Speaker 1: and how even when they wash in like a river
Speaker 1: or stream, they're closes are like then still dirty clothes
Speaker 1: and I can't and like how the trimming of the
Speaker 1: hair and the nails, like it's almost obsessive. I'm literally
Speaker 1: cringing and scratching myself right now, like the cuticles. I
Speaker 1: think about it. And when I watched TV shows, I'll
Speaker 1: think about the clutter and the behind and the desk,
Speaker 1: and like their apartment in the way they live and
Speaker 1: how messy it is, and even real people, when real
Speaker 1: people are on zooms, I'm like, that is disorganized. I'm
Speaker 1: not enjoying this. I have a hard time watching movies
Speaker 1: without thinking about people's disorder, clutter, and filth. I've realized
Speaker 1: that in shopping with a lot of us, and particularly
Speaker 1: with online shopping, and particularly with social media, we're buying
Speaker 1: to buy, and it's like eating to eat. You ever
Speaker 1: just snack, and you're buying crappy You're eating crappy junk food.
Speaker 1: We're watching crappy television. You're like, it's not satisfying, it's
Speaker 1: not making you feel better. We're absorbing crappy social media.
Speaker 1: We're absorbing crappy TV and absorbing crappy news about crappy people,
Speaker 1: and you just don't feel good after it. You feel
Speaker 1: a little gross, and you feel like you have a
Speaker 1: headache from looking at your phone. Or you're buying ship
Speaker 1: then you look at your closet. You have too much crap.
Speaker 1: It's the same thing with food. It's like when you're
Speaker 1: eating just to eat, eat something good. Let's start consuming good.
Speaker 1: Let's start That's what I've talked about, like doing a
Speaker 1: cleanse of garbage and all these beasts and these people
Speaker 1: that don't deserve attention. Let's consume only good food if
Speaker 1: we can, and we can, Let's also only buy what
Speaker 1: we really need and what's really good. It's a quality
Speaker 1: versus quantity model. And let's only consume quality media versus quantity. Like,
Speaker 1: let's not just be like doom scrolling and just like
Speaker 1: looking at stuff and then going into the Lincoln bio
Speaker 1: and then reading about it and its gossip about some
Speaker 1: garbage person whose garbage life you don't really care about,
Speaker 1: you know, Let's try to shift it and instead of
Speaker 1: just saying how much we don't like it, let's change
Speaker 1: the conversation and be on a cleanse and consume and
Speaker 1: buy and watch and read only things that are good
Speaker 1: and that are good for us. So that means and
Speaker 1: I'm also doing an eight o'clock tech cleanse, and I'm
Speaker 1: limiting my time on social media. I want to do
Speaker 1: a cleanse where we're reducing the toxic where were I
Speaker 1: want to do a cleanse where we're reducing the media
Speaker 1: toxins in our bodies. The things we're consuming and reading
Speaker 1: and caring about and posting and sharing and commenting on.
Speaker 1: I want to reduce those toxins, and I want to
Speaker 1: reduce the toxins and what we like and what we
Speaker 1: think about and what we give air, and I want
Speaker 1: to only buy good and try to try to do
Speaker 1: better in the way that we eat. I want to
Speaker 1: put it all. It's just a good move in the
Speaker 1: right direction, because we're all a little toxic right now,
Speaker 1: noticing it around every single medium, and we have to
Speaker 1: take it down much
