00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 3: well Scooba, how are you. I've decided that we may

11
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 3: do this podcast in the form of a kid asking questions.

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 2: A kid asking questions? Okay, what do you mean?

13
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 3: I saw a thing online and it was interesting to

14
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 3: me where it was like we as adults stop asking

15
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 3: questions and being inquisitive, like kids are.

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, my son, who's seven right now, he is

17
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 4: in the question asking phase. And then he doesn't even

18
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 4: let me get to the answer of the first question.

19
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 4: He just died right into the next question. And then

20
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 4: I started to answer the first question. He's already in

21
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 4: the third question, the fourth question. I'm like, dude, slow

22
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 4: down on the first one.

23
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 3: But they're so inquisitive and they learn so much, whereas

24
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 3: we as adults stop asking questions and.

25
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: Their brains are on fire.

26
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, learning things. So I've decided we're just gonna ask

27
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:12,960
Speaker 3: a lot of questions this episode.

28
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,240

Speaker 4: I met bar the first time when he was it

47
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 4: hadn't even been I think they hadn't even released the show.

48
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 4: It was like a promo for like the preview of

49
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 4: when it was going to come out, because there was

50
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 4: two different Barneys. The original Barney was like a deep

51
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 4: dark purple, and then and then after they got budget

52
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 4: and the Barney became like it started doing well. Yeah,

53
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 4: then they got a new Barney like the second or

54
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 4: third season, he was more of like a lighter purple

55
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 4: and the costume had more money involved. You could tell

56
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 4: they had more of a budget could start to form

57
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 4: into like this really cool costume. But the original guy

58
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 4: was scary and dark purple. And we were at Target

59
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 4: in Olvido, Florida, which outside of Orlando, and we were

60
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 4: just there one day, just shopping in like the early nineties,

61
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 4: like ninety two or ninety three, and they're like, hey,

62
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 4: you guys want to meet Barney, And we didn't who

63
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 4: the heck Barney was. And it was like a meet

64
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 4: and greet, like a pop like almost like a radio

65
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 4: station pop up, and had a bunch of Barney toys

66
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 4: all around him, and he was he was there, the

67
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,399
Speaker 4: real Barney, and they had the kids from the show.

68
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: They were all there.

69
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 4: It was pretty wild. And I think Sandy Duncan or

70
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 4: somebody was the mom and she was there and we

71
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 4: met him and got the original Barneys. I still have

72
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 4: the original dark purple, scary Barney.

73
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 3: I guess I was looking at photos and you're right,

74
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 3: I don't. I mean, I don't really remember it. It

75
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 3: kind of reminds me of the you know when we

76
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 3: all think that the Monopoly guy yeah has the monocle,

77
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 3: and then he didn't. Yeah, this is probably one of

78
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 3: those situations because I definitely don't remember the original Barney,

79
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 3: but I know I was watching Barney from beginning again. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

80
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 3: my dad used to He'd get home from work and

81
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 3: him and my mom would swap places, like he'd worked

82
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 3: the third shift, and then my mom would go work,

83
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 3: and that's how they watched us. So that's how they

84
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 3: raised us. So my dad would get really excited when

85
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 3: he came home because if he put on Barney and

86
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:31,799
Speaker 3: meant he could take a nap.

87
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, while we were watching it, your parents had then

88
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 4: their nap shows are the guaranteed. If I put this on,

89
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 4: I have a solid twenty thirty minutes, so they're gonna

90
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 4: they're gonna leave me alone for sure.

91
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 3: And that was Barney for us, for my dad, and

92
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 3: so I know we watched all of it.

93
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: Heck, we even dressed up.

94
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 3: As Barney as kids, like that was our We loved Barney. Yeah, yeah,

95
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 3: but I definitely remember the pink one, don't. I don't

96
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 3: remember the scary one, but I'm seeing him now and

97
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 3: he sure is a little bit scarier than the Like

98
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 3: it's almost like the first one looks like a male

99
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: version and the second one is a female version.

100
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's almost like they got you know how, whenever

101
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 4: you do something and you like the pilot or the

102
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 4: first of anything, you get feedback. And they probably had

103
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 4: feedback from people like, hey, it's a little scary and

104
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,839
Speaker 4: you know, lightening up a little bit. And then because

105
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 4: even like eyelashes on it and everything, they really and

106
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 4: the budget i'm sure increased from season one to two.

107
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 2: And so on.

108
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. Did that's crazy? I didn't realize he

109
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 1: was different colors.

110
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, And that was before BJ and Baby Bop

111
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 4: and all that was like just Barney.

112
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 3: Did you ever watch One of my other favorite shows

113
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 3: that I really loved was Out of the Box.

114
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,160
Speaker 1: That's a Disney show, And I don't know if that's

115
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: a little bit too out of the Box.

116
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 3: That may have been like so they would be like

117
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 3: they would build all these little cardboard boxes.

118
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then they'd all walk into it and it'd be.

119
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 3: Like this giant uh like four if you will. That

120
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 3: was full of all kinds of things.

121
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't remember watching this one. It did come

122
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 4: out in ninety eight, So I mean I had, say

123
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 4: my sister was three, but I was at this point,

124
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 4: I feel like I was not home very much. I

125
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 4: was starting to work and get on in life. Yeah yeah,

126
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 4: I don't think I've seen Oh yeah, I've seen. Oh,

127
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 4: you know, I've seen previous for it, because I recognized

128
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 4: the mom and dad in here.

129
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, there is the song. I was like, out of

130
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 3: the box, yes, yeah, yeah.

131
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: It was such a vibe. But I loved it.

132
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 3: And I always thought for like the longest time that

133
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 3: if you crawled into a cardboard box it would turn

134
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: into like a tree fort because of that show.

135
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 4: Well, it's supposed to be just your imagination, you know,

136
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 4: but their imagination is on screen, so they have to

137
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 4: actually do it exactly.

138
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 3: But see my imagination. It did not work out with

139
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 3: the cardboard boxes. I tried. I tried a few times.

140
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 3: But that's what it also reminds me of.

141
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 2: Wow, it's crazy.

142
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 4: Look at the lady who you can't see as if

143
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 4: you're listening, but the out of the box lady, Vivian

144
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 4: bay U bay Maybe she's Filipino. Yeah, wow, she like

145
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 4: has gray hairs now and stuff. Whoa, this is crazy.

146
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 3: It feels it feels wild. I don't know about you,

147
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 3: but the nineties feel like just centuries ago.

148
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: It. Yeah, I mean it kind of almost was.

149
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 1: Decades ago, but centuries.

150
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 3: It feels like it's like I feel truly like I'm

151
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 3: one hundred years from the nineties.

152
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, she only has like seven thousand followers.

00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

161
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: Do you think there's gonna be any impactful ones like

162
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: that for your kids?

163
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 2: Yeah?

164
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 4: You know what you think about that because there's so

165
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 4: much recycled stuff where either they're.

166
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 2: Watching the original shows.

167
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 4: We watched or they've been rebooted forty five million times,

168
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: and like original ideas are like few far in between.

169
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 4: So it's a great question because I'm trying to think

170
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 4: of like anything original. My son watches it really isn't original.

171
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 4: He watches Pokemon, which came out in the nineties. Yeah,

172
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 4: they like Jurassic Park, which came out in the nineties

173
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,679
Speaker 4: and then that Drastic World, which is like a reboot,

174
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 4: a new version of it.

175
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:43,840
Speaker 2: What else do they watch?

176
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: The only one that that comes to mind as Bluey.

177
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, blue is the only one, original ish one.

178
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't know that there's is Miss Rachel

179
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 3: technically because I feel like we had Magic school Bus,

180
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 3: which was a similar vibe to that.

181
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I don't know anything about Miss Rachel. I mean,

182
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 4: I know who she is, yeah, but we don't we

183
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 4: do that.

184
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I haven't watched any of her stuff.

185
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 3: I just see her.

186
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 4: So weird if you see it watched Miss Rachel.

187
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie. There's been a few times I've

188
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 3: watched Bluey, but that was yeah.

189
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, blooey.

190
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 4: Actually, Like I mean, Miss Rachel not the crap on her,

191
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 4: but she's like an internet person that now is a

192
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 4: TV show, and so I'm sure it's like whatever.

193
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 3: So it's not a true like original TV show kind

194
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 3: of like our nineties that we're talking about.

195
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, I know there's different ways

196
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 4: to become something now, and the Internet is a way

197
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 4: to become famous or make yourself go somewhere. But I

198
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 4: don't know, I just feel like it's like it's almost

199
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 4: like dating websites, like there.

200
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 2: Was an ick.

201
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 4: It was like, ooh, you're on Like when back my

202
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 4: mom was single and dating guys were like, oh, you

203
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 4: find them on the internet, You're a loser, mom.

204
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: And there's like an ick to me with internet.

205
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 3: Where they started Internet And I'm like.

206
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 4: Oh, gross, you were on the internet. You didn't have

207
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 4: like you weren't properly trained or worked your whole life

208
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 4: with professionals to get to this place. You were on

209
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 4: the Internet and just someone picked you up.

210
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 2: Like gross.

211
00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: I didn't know there could be a professional ick, but

212
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: here are.

213
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's a nick.

214
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 4: I think even like in the country music industry, they'll

215
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 4: never ever say it out loud because it's so incestuous

216
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 4: and everyone wants to don't want to hurtnyone's feelings. But

217
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 4: I know the artists that put ten years in and

218
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 4: busts of their ass like Alany Wilson or a Jelly

219
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 4: Roll not saying they've said this, but where they put

220
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 4: in this long crap, this long, hard road to get

221
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: to where they're at and someone puts a video on

222
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 4: TikTok and the next morning they wake up. But it's

223
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 4: got ten million views, and they get a record label

224
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 4: and they get all these things, and then there's no

225
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 4: like they didn't they didn't earn it in their mind,

226
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 4: so they're like screw them. As you know, they'll never

227
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 4: say that, but I know they're like, screw that person

228
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 4: for never for not having to work the way I worked.

229
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: And that's how you feel too, That's how you know.

230
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 2: That's how I feel towards internet fame. Yes, exactly.

231
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, see I'm following. Yeah, yeah, the back on

232
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 3: our our TV thing, Paw Patrol, Paw.

233
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 2: Patrol, that's another. Yeah.

234
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 4: I feel like Nickelodeon has done a really good job

235
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 4: of coming out with more because Nickelodeon's always pumped out content,

236
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 4: you know. Yeah, and I feel like that's a Nickelodeon

237
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 4: paaramount property. Paw Patrol is unique. My kids U still

238
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 4: love that, not so much anymore. My daughter watches. Which

239
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 4: is funny because whenever Nickelodeon Universal comes out with something

240
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 4: Disney there's always this battle, whether it's Thirteen Parks or

241
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 4: it's their television shows or whatever. And so Disney has

242
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 4: a show called Super Kitties, and so it's the safetiest

243
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 4: Paw Patrol, but they're cats, and my daughter, my youngest

244
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 4: who's three, loves super kitties.

245
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 3: So funny. It's funny to me that that's always been

246
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 3: a battle. It's like you have these two competitors of

247
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 3: kid Networks basically, and Disney's evolved and obviously Nickelodeon's evolved

248
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 3: to adult with Paramount. Yeah, so they've had their evolution,

249
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 3: but it is funny to think about that they were

250
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 3: just always these two competing.

251
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 4: And that was it constantly Pepsi and Coke, Walgreens and

252
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 4: CVS homes, Bow and Low's, Disney and Universal.

253
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, this will be fun.

254
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: Okay, what we're gonna do?

255
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 3: Like, which side are you on?

256
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 2: Okay?

257
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so Disney Nickelodeon.

258
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 3: Which one are you going?

259
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: Uh, Nickelodeon, I'm Disney.

260
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 2: See, I like Disney.

261
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 4: I love Disney, but we were way more in our

262
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 4: household because Disney was a pre It cost more money

263
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 4: to have Disney at the time. I felt like in

264
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 4: the early nineties it was almost like you had had

265
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 4: to pay extra for it.

266
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: It was on like cable. Yeah, we just watched it

267
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: on cable.

268
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I'm a little bit older than you. There

269
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 4: was a time where on the box you were able.

270
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 4: I forget the whole setup, but there was different levels

271
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 4: of your cable package, and our basic level cable package

272
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,719
Speaker 4: carried Nickelodeon, but in order to get Disney you had

273
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 4: to pay a higher premium and we couldn't afford it.

274
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 4: So we'd only watched Disney when we went to our

275
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 4: aunt and uncle's house in Tampa because they had money,

276
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 4: and so we'd watched Disney there.

277
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,119
Speaker 1: So you're telling me monopolies have always.

278
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:33,199
Speaker 3: Been a thing.

279
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Yeah, totally, yeah, just the beginning.

280
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we're just way too deep.

281
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 3: Now, Okay, so I got Disney, you got Nickelodeon.

282
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.

283
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: Pepsi or coke coke Pepsi sucks.

284
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 3: We were at pepsi family ground. My mom worked at Pepsi.

285
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 2: Oh gross.

286
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 3: So she she, like my dad and I would drink

287
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,079
Speaker 3: diet Mountain Dew Leaders all the time, and my mom

288
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 3: and sister would drink diet Pepsi Mountain dew Leader or

289
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 3: diet Pepsi Leaders all of the time, and that was

290
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 3: like our go to for forever. I was talking to

291
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 3: a friend about this because it was weird. We drank

292
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 3: it every single days growing up. I drank diet mound dew,

293
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 3: and then my mom and sister drank pepsi.

294
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:11,719
Speaker 1: I know, trust me, I know.

295
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:13,719
Speaker 4: Like when you taste it now, like you taste the

296
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 4: major difference with diet in regular and they're both really

297
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 4: bad for you. But it's even worse because artificial crap

298
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:19,079
Speaker 4: in it.

299
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 3: It's all bad now, like right now, it's disgusting to me. Yes, yeah,

300
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 3: but there was just one day where I just stopped

301
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 3: drinking it.

302
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know what day that.

303
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 3: Was or what caused that, but it was a weird

304
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 3: thing because I did it every day of my life

305
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 3: for years, and then all of a sudden, one day

306
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 3: it was just not a part of my life.

307
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,199
Speaker 1: And I try and look back on that because it

308
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: was so ingrained into me. What happened there?

309
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 2: What turned off? What turned on?

310
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I don't know if it was a moment

311
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 3: of the fake sugar that that was the turn I

312
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 3: don't know, but I was thinking about that the other day.

313
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,319
Speaker 3: Random tangent. But that is why we're a pepsi family.

314
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 3: I grew up on it.

315
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 4: We're all coke and with someone would bring over like

316
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 4: RC Cola or check or something like when we're like,

317
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 4: get that out of here, loser, because that's something about

318
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 4: the coke. That's the way it burns your throat, it's

319
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 4: going down like it's especially coke. At a theme park

320
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 4: like Disney, they add extra sugar into their coke and

321
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 4: it's even better. Oh my god, it's just it's awesome.

322
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 4: I don't drink it as much as I used to

323
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 4: when I was younger. Yeah, but and I but I

324
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 4: still I'm not like I don't cut it out completely.

325
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 4: I'll probably once a week have a coke and manage

326
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 4: just something about it.

327
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,199
Speaker 3: Just you are right, I will say, as an adult,

328
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 3: I've probably morphed into the Coca Cola side.

329
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: More so because sprite.

330
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 2: Okay, oh sprite's good too.

331
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: I love a spring gives me a storry.

332
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 3: I will punch you in the face. Yes, it is

333
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 3: nowhere near the same thing.

334
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 2: No.

335
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 4: By the way, you see mellow yellow and they rebranded

336
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 4: it and it became so is dumb. It's like you

337
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 4: can change that name. It's lipstick on a pig man

338
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 4: that think sucks.

339
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's been terrible all the time.

340
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 3: Every time if you go to a restaurant, and like

341
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 3: sometimes when I would be hungover, I really wanted to sprite.

342
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 3: That was like my ginger ale if you will, and

343
00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 3: I would go to a place and we have star

344
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 3: I'm going somewhere.

345
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, we're good. Cancel the whole order is pepsi. Okay,

346
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 4: actually it's not. So I'll just take water or you

347
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 4: can cash us out.

348
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: We're done. We're done here.

349
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: So I you know what I've morphed to your side

350
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: as an adult.

351
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 2: Okay, cool? Good.

352
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 3: What's another Walmart or what's what's Walmart's main competitive target?

353
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: Target?

354
00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 3: Yeah?

355
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it just depends because they're similar. But

356
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 4: in the sense of it, I guess depends on what

357
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 4: you're looking for and what you're going for as a kid.

358
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 4: My mom love Target, but we also go to Walmart

359
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 4: because it was close to the house, so we were

360
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 4: we were kind of like not divided on that. But

361
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 4: I think I've gone through seasons of my life, like

362
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 4: right now, I'm all about Walmart because it's much more

363
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 4: affordable as far as when you go to further grocery

364
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 4: side of things and all that. So I think we're

365
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 4: a Walmart family now.

366
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: Isn't that interesting?

367
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 3: Like you you started there and swapped, whereas like I

368
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 3: started as a Walmart girl growing up, like that's the

369
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 3: only place we ever went, mostly because we didn't have

370
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 3: a lot of other options for grocery stores up until

371
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 3: I was maybe in is like middle school, high school,

372
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 3: where we got a Dylan's, which is the Kroger brand,

373
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 3: And then we got a super Target and that was

374
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 3: a huge deal in my town.

375
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: Was a super Target some things, they're massive.

376
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 3: Oh it was. It was the biggest deal. And they

377
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 3: were right by each other, so there was competition for days.

378
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 3: But so most of my life and my dad still

379
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,319
Speaker 3: shops at Walmart for groceries, so Walmart and then I'm

380
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 3: morphed kind of into now more Target. But honestly, I

381
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 3: Trader Joe's is probably more of my Between the three,

382
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 3: I think I just choose.

383
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 2: Because the parking lot is a pain in the butt.

384
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, why do all Trader Joe's have terrible parking?

385
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 2: They pick up.

386
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 4: Parking lot the size of a fast food spot, like anywhere,

387
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 4: doesn't my Where's at? And first I thought it was

388
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 4: like okay, because when I first got exposed to Trader Joe's,

389
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 4: it was in California and it was in San Francisco,

390
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 4: where there's a very limited parking small lot. Everything was

391
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 4: all small, so I just figured, Oh, it's just because

392
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 4: I'm in the city, of course it's a small parking lot.

393
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 4: And then I went out further into the East Bay

394
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 4: and it was still in a small parking lot where

395
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 4: there's plenty of space. And then I was like, And

396
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 4: then I went down to La and I was in

397
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 4: went to a Trader Joe's and it was over there

398
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 4: somewhere like in the Hollywood area, and the parking lot

399
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 4: was behind the Trader Joe's and it was hell of small,

400
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 4: and I was like, maybe it's just like, Okay, it's

401
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 4: got to be a California.

402
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 1: Thing, like you kept just trying to justify it.

403
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Like maybe it's just because we're mad geographically.

404
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 4: But then they started moving out this way and I

405
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 4: went to one here, and I'm.

406
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 2: Like, what the hell is happening?

407
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: Why do they choose the smallest real estate to put

408
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 4: a grocery store? And then the parking is such a

409
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 4: pain in the ass. I'm like, I don't even want

410
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 4: to deal with this.

411
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 2: I'm out. I don't go there anymore because of that.

412
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 3: There is something with Trader Joe's and parking lots. But

413
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 3: I'm sure there's a strategy behind it. Yeah, I don't

414
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 3: know what it is.

415
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 2: Cheaper rent maybe I don't know.

416
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,040
Speaker 1: Maybe so maybe always looking like they're busy.

417
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, some strategy behind it if they're all like that.

418
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 4: Because it's a pain in the ass. So I don't

419
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 4: go there because of the parking.

420
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: That's fair. But man, they have such cool, like fun

421
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: different items from all over. Yeah, it's not worth the

422
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: stress for me. But I also go during the day.

423
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 3: That helps.

424
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 4: Okay, even during the day, I feel like it was

425
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 4: a pain in the ass. Everywhere I went. I was like,

426
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 4: I was like, it's a great and the place is great,

427
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 4: great food, but man, the parking is a pain in

428
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 4: the ass.

429
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 3: That's funny.

430
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 2: I'm out.

431
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 3: Okay, we have more. I want to do more of these.

432
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 3: We're gonna take a break. Will be our back. We're

433
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 3: going to start off strong with our first comparison, Low's

434
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 3: or Home Depot.

435
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 2: So as a kid, we were a builders square family.

436
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 2: You ever heard of a builder Square?

437
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: Oh? So, I don't know where it maybe local, maybe

438
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 4: maybe local, but it was a regional maybe it was,

439
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 4: and you never know. Where things when you're a kid,

440
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 4: because you just know it from where you're at. But

441
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 4: I felt like it was all over Florida and they

442
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 4: closed down in the nineties Builders Square. We went to

443
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 4: Builder Square and went to Scots which is another spot

444
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 4: that isn't around anymore. And it was like a Scottish

445
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 4: looking guy with a beard and a fo door I

446
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,240
Speaker 4: had on top, and I remember they did not have

447
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 4: the Okay, so this is maybe just more of a

448
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 4: southern thing in the South Florida area. We went to

449
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 4: those a lot.

450
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 3: And then were they like a Low's and Home Depot

451
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 3: or were they more like an ACE Hardware? Oh?

452
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 2: You know what? From what I remember, it was like

453
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 2: in between.

454
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 4: They weren't as big as a home debot, but they

455
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 4: weren't as small mom and pop as an ACE. Ok

456
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 4: So they were like in the middle of it, and

457
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 4: they didn't last. So apparently didn't they didn't do well

458
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 4: or they got absorbed or bought out. I don't know

459
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 4: the story behind it taking the time to jump in

460
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 4: that rabbit hole on the internet. But between those two,

461
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 4: I have to say, I know Home Depot like everyone

462
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 4: loves it, and it's whatever, more saving, more doing it's great,

463
00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 4: but I'm a Lowe's family.

464
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 1: I'm the same. We finally found our common ground.

465
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 2: And yeah, and it's blue.

466
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 4: I like the color blue and my favorite color. And

467
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 4: I just, I don't know, I just like Loads just

468
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 4: it seemed more inviting and clean and happier.

469
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 2: I don't know. I just I liked Low's.

470
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 3: No, and I'm with you, but also it was another

471
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 3: one of those that I grew up on. That's where

472
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,439
Speaker 3: my dad went all the time. It's funny how how

473
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 3: much our childhood influences where we go. Just your choices, yeah,

474
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 3: I mean, heck, even before moving to Nashville, I was like,

475
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 3: there are no other choices.

476
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 2: Those are that's it.

477
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 3: You go to Walmart, you go to Low's and that's where. Yeah,

478
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 3: and we didn't have Costco. We had Sam's Club. Okay, yeah, yeah,

479
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 3: like those are the that's what you did. And then

480
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 3: I come to Nashville and like, I have choices, I

481
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 3: can go to different places. What does that mean? Yeah,

482
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 3: so I think I think that's why.

483
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: But yeah, I still go to Low's.

484
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 3: Say it's a home depot guy. So it's kind of funny.

485
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 4: Okay, do you ever like have to like fight over

486
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 4: it or you just or who wins.

487
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 3: Or closest to us, So Lowes typically wins.

488
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: But if we go somewhere and like Low's does a habit.

489
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 3: Of like home Depot would have had that.

490
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 4: The problem I've had with Home Depot lately is every

491
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 4: time I've been there, I remember going there, like it

492
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 4: was about eighteen or nineteen when I worked in landscaping.

493
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 4: They'd have to go there a lot to pick up

494
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 4: because the company I worked for had a home Depot

495
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 4: credit card, so we had to go to home Depot,

496
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 4: but we'd pick up that sprinkler parts or whatever. But

497
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 4: and back then you like, hey, where is the where's

498
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 4: the screws or where is the bracket?

499
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 3: That?

500
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 4: Like, oh, let me and they would take you to

501
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,399
Speaker 4: that aisle and show you and then like here it is.

502
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 4: Do you have any questions? And I was like, oh,

503
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 4: this is really cool. Now you go to home Depot

504
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 4: and you ask somebody where something is, they all hold

505
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 4: on a second and they pull out their phone.

506
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,920
Speaker 1: I think it's on Aisle seven and then.

507
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,560
Speaker 4: You and then you're like all right, and then the

508
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 4: guy just stands there and you're like, oh, so you're

509
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 4: not going to take me to Aisle seven. Okay, so

510
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 4: I'll go to Aisle seven seven and guess what, they're

511
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 4: not there now seven looking for something I can't find,

512
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 4: and I'm looking for the other idiot to tell me

513
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 4: where it's at and pull out the phone, and it's

514
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 4: also not there either. It's like, take me to the freakin'

515
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 4: aisle show me, because if it's not there, then you

516
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 4: can then take me to where you think it.

517
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's just so frustrated.

518
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: I think it's the same way at Low's though.

519
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, I've had that same experience at Low's.

520
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: Or they just don't know where anything is anymore.

521
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just don't think you have the same type

522
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 3: of people that are employed as much anymore.

523
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: When I get one of the older genlems, jeez.

524
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're always very like helpful and stuff. But when

525
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 3: you have one of the younger I don't know that

526
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 3: they are as equipped because it is everything on your

527
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 3: phone versus knowing or they had to know everything of

528
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 3: everywhere in the store. Things.

529
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 4: You should still that's part of like understanding where you work,

530
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 4: that you should know where things are. Yeah, it shouldn't

531
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 4: go away because technology is there and it took away

532
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 4: your ability to remember things.

533
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: Hey, I don't can disagree with you.

534
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 4: Like when I was in my teens and twenties, I

535
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:56,959
Speaker 4: still worked as hard as the guy who had been

536
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 4: there for twenty thirty years because I just had a

537
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 4: little sense of pride in my work.

538
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 1: I know, I know I'm on the.

539
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 3: Same path as you, but you left a little nugged

540
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,919
Speaker 3: in there. You worked for a landscape company.

541
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 2: For a while.

542
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, when I first gotten it, before I

543
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 4: got before I got in the radio. And how I

544
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 4: got in the radio was because I was in the

545
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 4: truck a lout listening to the radio. And I used

546
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 4: to work. I ran a crew, a landscaping crew in Orlando.

547
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 4: It was me and like five Guatemalans. We go out

548
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 4: there every day and we'd cut grass and weedy and

549
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 4: edge and do like big neighborhoods. My route was mostly

550
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,360
Speaker 4: like the really nice houses and like winter Park went

551
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 4: a mirror. And because I actually gave a crap about

552
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 4: my job, and so he gave me, like the high

553
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 4: dollar clients nice because I took care of him and

554
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 4: like did went above me on and he always got

555
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 4: great feedback, and so he kept giving more of the

556
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 4: high dollar clients, which was.

557
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 2: Great because in the holidays they usually would tip.

558
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 3: Okay, I was gonna say, did they tip you normally

559
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 3: or just during the holidays.

560
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 4: I didn't get a lot of tips throughout the year,

561
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 4: but mostly like the holidays I would get from not everyone,

562
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 4: though not everyone was generous to tip, but there were

563
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 4: a decent amount where they'd be like, hey, here's a hundred bucks,

564
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 4: and it always would split it with me and the guys, Hey,

565
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 4: let's go out to lunch, and like, let's go hard

566
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 4: and let's get whatever we want at lunch, because a

567
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 4: hundred bucks went pretty far.

568
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, twenty thirty years ago.

569
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,399
Speaker 4: So yeah, I did that, ran the crew and then

570
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 4: so then every once in a while we had like big company,

571
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,640
Speaker 4: like big neighborhoods too, and we'd all the whole company

572
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 4: would go like tag team of a hundred house neighborhood

573
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 4: and do all that or do we do installs and

574
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 4: landscape design, sprinkler systems, all that kind of stuff.

575
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:23,880
Speaker 3: Nice.

576
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 2: We I did that for a few years.

577
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: Do you like doing it at your house now?

578
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 2: No?

579
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 1: Yeah?

580
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 3: You like, no one all goes into it, Yeah, exactly.

581
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do do it, and I did do it

582
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 4: for a long time of doing my own lomb but man,

583
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 4: it's a lot of like almost four acres, so it's

584
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 4: more than just like a zeroline edge weedy, blow and.

585
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 2: Get out of there kind of scenario. Yeah, but I do.

586
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 4: I do, like take pride and trimming my hedges and

587
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 4: stuff because no one can do it as good as

588
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 4: I can.

589
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, do you have one of those automatic yeah.

590
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 2: Power one yeah, where it has the clipper. Yeah.

Speaker 2: I clean them up. Yeah yeah, Well I like.

594
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 3: Yard videos in general. There's actually a guy from Wichita

595
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,719
Speaker 3: who has a massive account who goes around and just

596
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 3: mows and cleans up yards for free.

597
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 4: Yeah.

598
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:10,120
Speaker 2: I've seen them before.

599
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah.

600
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 3: He was like be mowing or something like that, and

601
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,360
Speaker 3: he I love watching his videos. I'll just sit there

602
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,400
Speaker 3: and watch him clean up a whole yard, and before

603
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 3: I know it, I'm like ten lawn videos. Deep.

604
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,439
Speaker 1: That was pretty cool. I don't why.

605
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 4: Pretty cool And I'm not gonna do my lawn because

606
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 4: do you cut your grass or anything?

607
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 3: I did, Oh, you do. And then I'm at my

608
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 3: fiance and within like a few weeks, I was like,

609
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:31,200
Speaker 3: you can take that.

610
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:35,360
Speaker 2: Over if you want, which means you will, and he did.

611
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 3: He was actually really excited. He loves plans, He loves

612
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 3: all of that, like he loves being outside and doing

613
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 3: things outside with his hands. So I was like, perfect,

614
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 3: this is great. I'll happily pass that over to you. Yes, okay,

615
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 3: I did love mowing, though I felt really satisfied after

616
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 3: i'd get done. I hated how I felt before, like

617
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 3: the lead up of I have to do this, yes,

618
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 3: and I don't.

619
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: But then while I was doing and after I loved

620
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: it because you can see.

621
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 4: The if you watch those videos, obviously you like the

622
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 4: progress of like seeing one side of it all disheveled

623
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 4: on the other side with the nice lines, and it's

624
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 4: like short and looks really good. Okay, motivation, lets keep going.

625
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 3: It was really funny because my family group chat, my

626
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,719
Speaker 3: dad and brother in law would always send their yards,

627
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 3: and in Kansas you get a little bit more grass,

628
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 3: and we get here near the city in Nashville, so

629
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 3: they would have these really pretty like yards where they

630
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 3: had all their lines and they did all the things. Yeah,

631
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 3: but I'd also always send my pictures in my yard

632
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 3: and be like, here's mine.

633
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 1: I did it too.

634
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 3: I have my pretty lines, but it'd be like this,

635
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 3: you know for my four area.

636
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 4: Like that's cute. It took you what ten minutes to

637
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 4: do that? He's like, we're still moentars right now.

638
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 3: It's so true. But what's crazy is it takes my

639
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 3: dad an hour. It takes me an hour. Also really okay,

640
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 3: I just I got little arms, you know, and like

641
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 3: that weed eater just really is huge compared to It's

642
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 3: bigger than me.

643
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, and it vibrates a lot, so like after

644
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 4: a while, your hands start.

645
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 1: To get oh jello. Like the first several times I

646
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: did it, my arms would be jell o.

647
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:52,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

648
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,920
Speaker 4: I hate weed eating. I would always have Magno. There's

649
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 4: the guy my crew named Magno, and he for some

650
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 4: reason loved the weed eat and I hated it because

651
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 4: it was he had always replace the string and it

652
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 4: was always vibrating and jiggling and her and his crap

653
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,119
Speaker 4: was always spatting in your eyes. So I'd always love

654
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,959
Speaker 4: to just My favorite was the hedges and edging. Ah man,

655
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 4: I loved edging up against the concrete or edging beds.

656
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 2: And I have that nice line. Oh it just looks

657
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 2: so good.

658
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 3: See it's the lines yeah, I don't know why.

659
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 4: It's like, yes, the satisfaction of it looking clean and like,

660
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 4: I don't know, just put together.

661
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: Yes, And that was why it took me about two years.

662
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 3: And then I realized that they had the automatic feeders

663
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 3: where you could just put a string in and press

664
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 3: a button.

665
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:29,920
Speaker 1: And it does it.

666
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,640
Speaker 4: But actually, like if we're doing commercials, so we're doing

667
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 4: a lot eventually, like it constantly keeps going, you know,

668
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 4: but yeah, see, if you're doing you're a small yard,

669
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 4: that string could last forever.

670
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 3: No, because you'd see me in the when I didn't

671
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 3: know the thing existed. You see me sitting in the

672
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 3: driveway and I'd be trying to put something together. I

673
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 3: don't know how many YouTube videos I want trying to

674
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,199
Speaker 3: figure out that string visit. Yes, Oh my gosh. I

675
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 3: also had enough guys stop that we're driving by. I

676
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 3: was like, do you need help, and I'm like, I'm fine, I.

677
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 1: Don't need I will figure this out.

678
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 2: Yeah I do need your help, but I don't want

679
00:24:58,600 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 2: your help exactly.

680
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 3: I was more frush that thing masked, Yeah, and I

681
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 3: was prusured the stupid thing. I hated those.

682
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,360
Speaker 4: But once you get it work and it's great because

683
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 4: then you all have to do just pop it and

684
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 4: hit the ground and then it pops out.

685
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,400
Speaker 2: But it is a pain they ask to get it going. Yeah,

686
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 2: it really is.

687
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 3: I don't know how we walked down that, but I

688
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 3: liked it.

689
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 2: You asked, oh it talk about landscaping. Yeah, landscaping.

690
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 3: Do you ever like this is a funny thing for

691
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 3: me because I worked at Buffalo Wild Wings for five

692
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 3: years or so.

693
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was like my first job, and I just

694
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 1: worked my way up.

695
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,280
Speaker 3: But now, either when I pass a buffalo or I

696
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 3: go out to eat or anything like that and I

697
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 3: see people doing expo or take out, I just have

698
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,719
Speaker 3: a lot of experiences where I'm like, oh, that's not

699
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 3: how I would have done that, or that's a weird way.

700
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 3: Like do you have those moments of that with landscaping?

701
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Yeah.

702
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 4: When we lived in La we had an hoa, so

703
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: they took care of the grounds. We didn't have a

704
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 4: lot of grass because it was like a bunch of

705
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 4: town homes, but there were bushes to trim. That's my specialty,

706
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,360
Speaker 4: and I would get so angry. I love trim and bushes,

707
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,439
Speaker 4: and also something about the satisfaction of trimming up a

708
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,160
Speaker 4: palm tree or a robolini and like having that nice

709
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 4: fountain look and cutting off all the dead fronds and

710
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 4: just making it look nice and clean. And it was

711
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 4: so frustrating because we paid money into the HOA and

712
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,159
Speaker 4: the only thing really that the money was going towards

713
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 4: was the landscaping, because there wasn't a lot of maintenance

714
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 4: in our grounds in this place, so the majority of

715
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 4: the money went to landscaping. And it was a scam

716
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 4: because the guys would come out there and all they

717
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 4: would ever do was just pull out the blowers and

718
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 4: just blow things off and never trim the bushes. And

719
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 4: it was so frustrating because you walk around and everything

720
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,399
Speaker 4: looks like it looks like an overgrown, abandoned neighborhood. And

721
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 4: so I got so annoyed one day that I went

722
00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 4: out and bought because I didn't have it at the

723
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 4: time because we're living in a town home.

724
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 2: I went and freaking went.

725
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,119
Speaker 4: To Lows and I bought a hedge trimmer, and I

726
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 4: started trimming my own hedges because they kept getting overgrown,

727
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 4: they were looking all crappy and because they weren't maintaining

728
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 4: them and growing them. Because I relative it was a

729
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,199
Speaker 4: new space, so new plants, and they need to be

730
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 4: trimmed and kept so that way they can grow thick

731
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,199
Speaker 4: and growing together. I said, this is annoying. It's been

732
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 4: a year. They never cut these damn bushes are overgrown.

733
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 4: Now it's growing up against my house, which is going

734
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 4: to create problems for leaks and that kinds of stuff

735
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 4: and holding water and moisture. And I was like, I'm

736
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,879
Speaker 4: gonn trimming and damn hedges. So then I started with

737
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 4: me just trimming my own hedges, and then it morphed

738
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 4: in to me trimming my hedges and my neighbor's hedges

739
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 4: because then his were getting long and growing over our

740
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 4: walkway and looking like crap. And then it ended up

741
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 4: being trimming our entire street. And then it became a

742
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 4: I'm going to do it on the day they come.

743
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 4: And so I was out there trimming the hedges and

744
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 4: they're like, hey, what are you doing. I was like,

745
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 4: I'm doing what you're not doing, trimming the hedges.

746
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 1: Wait, did you ever get control by the hoa?

747
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 2: No, because I was doing I was doing what needed

748
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 2: to be done.

749
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 1: I know, but sometimes hoas are.

750
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:42,639
Speaker 4: They're very weird, yeah, and they can be like being pissed,

751
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 4: But I was like, you, we're paying for something and

752
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:45,959
Speaker 4: they're not doing the job, so they're not gonna do it.

753
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 2: I'm going to do it.

754
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,440
Speaker 3: Did they start paying or did they start having people

755
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 3: do it?

756
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 4: No, they would, they would do it, but it would

757
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:52,479
Speaker 4: be one of those things where it's like they did

758
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:53,919
Speaker 4: it and then a month will go by and they

759
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 4: stopped doing it and then become a problem again.

760
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: So I was like, this is ridiculous.

761
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 3: This is yeah.

762
00:27:58,840 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 1: See that's a crap thing about.

763
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 2: Yeah.

764
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 3: The cool thing about when I bought my house in Nashville,

765
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,479
Speaker 3: there was no HOA as far as the neighborhood, but

766
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 3: there was an HA between me and the house next door.

767
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 3: So I'm the president of KAY.

768
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 1: And she's the secretary, so you know what to do.

769
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 3: Then it's more like just a protection thing, like we

770
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 3: just have to check with each other before doing something

771
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 3: if we're like it's going to impact somebody else, but

772
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 3: both of us are.

773
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: Friends whatever, we don't really care.

774
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 3: But it's funny. I'm like, I'm the president of our HOA,

775
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 3: but it's literally just our house, Like it's our.

776
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 2: Little shit of house exactly. Yeah.

777
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but ho sucks.

778
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 4: They do, and then you spend that money, and then

779
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 4: we get mad about dumb crap and you're like, wait

780
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 4: a second, you're mad about the way I put my

781
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 4: Christmas lights up, which looks nice, but you're no, you

782
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 4: don't care about the fact that we pay money for

783
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 4: a landscaping service and they don't do anything that doesn't

784
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 4: bother you, like.

785
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 2: It was so dumb.

786
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 4: Or I parked my car out in front of my

787
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 4: in front of my house just for a second to

788
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 4: a load before I went to go park on the street, parking,

789
00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 4: and they would I would come back ten minutes, like

790
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,239
Speaker 4: they'd be a sticker in my car or a note saying, hey,

791
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 4: you're not just the park here. And so I knew

792
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,120
Speaker 4: that person was on my street or somewhere close enough

793
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,719
Speaker 4: by to do that. And I'm like, yeah, listen here

794
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,479
Speaker 4: a woman, Karen, like I know who you are. Like,

795
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 4: so you're mad about this, but you're not mad about

796
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 4: the way this place looks like. And you can control

797
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 4: that by telling the landscape company, yes, tell them to

798
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 4: do their job, and if they don't hire another one

799
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 4: that will or pay me to do it.

800
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 3: It's so true, though, like ajoys are, they're a special

801
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 3: kind of something.

802
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 2: It's a scam. Yeah, such a scam.

803
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 3: Most things are. Yeah, I've gotten older, I've really realized

804
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 3: that most things are a scam. Like we're worried about

805
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 3: the people that are calling us trying to scam us.

806
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 3: Not everything else is a scam.

807
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 2: No, it really is.

808
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 4: And like all these apps, it's a scam. We basically

809
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 4: have gone back to cable, and now it costs more

810
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 4: than cable.

811
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, don't get me started on that, because

812
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 3: if one of the prices rise one more time, I'm

813
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 3: about to quit all of it. Yeah, and just be like,

814
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 3: I'll see you guys in the next.

815
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: Century or two.

816
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 4: Point of doing these was because it was a sticket

817
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 4: to the man f you cable, and now we're going

818
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 4: to do it in a more affordable way and give

819
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 4: you access everything whenever you want it. And now it's

820
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 4: greed has taken over like always, and now we're spending

821
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 4: more money than it would have cost to have freaking cable.

822
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 2: It's so stupid, it is.

823
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 3: Don't give me because also insurance also, like somebody had

824
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 3: told me that you could get money back because we

825
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 3: went and stayed at a hotel when our power was

826
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 3: out and it was like, oh, home insurance should cover that. Yeah, yeah,

827
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 3: well I called they don't cover power outages. What I'm like,

828
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 3: if you're not supposed to cover Like, They're like, well,

829
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 3: it was still habitable, so you could stay there and

830
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 3: you could get.

831
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 1: Heat source from somewhere else.

832
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 3: And I'm just like, have you ever stayed in a

833
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 3: home that's thirty five degrees and.

834
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: You want to tell me it's habitable for a week? Yeah, Like,

835
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 1: I don't know.

836
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 3: So I didn't end up fighting that battle too hard

837
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 3: because I was just I was so annoyed that I

838
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 3: pay for insurance for what reason?

839
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that happened to us in Florida during the hurricanes,

840
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 4: and it was like we paid My mom paid the

841
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 4: insurance home insurance for like twenty thirty years and never

842
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 4: took a claim. And then the first time we would

843
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 4: take a claim, it was like something to do with

844
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 4: the roof of a couple of shingles missing and a

845
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 4: little bit of leakage from the front door. And then

846
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 4: they went around. Several companies went around and canceled at

847
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 4: people's policies and left the state of Florida because they

848
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 4: had to finally pay out it's like they've you've collected

849
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 4: billions of dollars all these years and then weren't having

850
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 4: to pay out. And then the one time you had

851
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 4: to pay out, which, by the way, that's the point

852
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 4: of insurances to eventually pay out at some point. So

853
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 4: the one time you had to really pay out, they're like,

854
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 4: how we're not we're not We're actually canceling and we're

855
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 4: leaving Florida. You're like, that is so messed up. And

856
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 4: for a while a lot of them are gone and

857
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 4: no one controlled it, no one, No one fought them.

858
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 4: You couldn't fight them. The government didn't step in, and

859
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 4: the insurance companies won. I'm like, that's such a freaking scam.

860
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 4: What a scam to pay into a system and then

861
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 4: when you ask for it back at some point you

862
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 4: can't get anything back out of it.

863
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 2: Like what, that's the whole point of insurance.

864
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then you walk down the line of you

865
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 3: have car insurance, home on insurance, and health insurance.

866
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: And you're scams. It's a freaking scam. Did be an

867
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: adult is hard? You know, it really is. You learn

868
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: a lot about the world that makes you kind of sad.

869
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, scams and greed. It's what it comes down to.

870
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 3: This is why we were going as children during this podcast,

871
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 3: I was going back to some young days.

872
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, give us some hope. But nope, it's okay, we're gonna.

873
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 3: Kick a break. We'll be back. Speaking of our families,

874
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 3: We're gonna get off of our scam topics because I

875
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 3: think we could talk about that all right. There there

876
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 3: were you guys, a water only family or a pop

877
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 3: an app's family pop and apps. Yeah, like when you

878
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 3: go out to eat, would you get water only, you

879
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 3: get your meal, you'd go home, or would you be

880
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 3: able to order soda okay we call it pop okay

881
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 3: or appetizers and then you'd have your meal.

882
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: Like what kind of family were you?

883
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 3: Because it's kind of the Internet has divided us into

884
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 3: two people.

885
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 2: Well, we didn't go out much, but when we did

886
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 2: it was I felt like it was like once a

887
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 2: quarter and it was like it was the whole deal.

888
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:53,840
Speaker 4: Like we were going to Olive Garden or we were

889
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,239
Speaker 4: going to Chili's or somewhere and it was the whole thing.

890
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 4: It was like we're all getting sodas, we're all getting

891
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 4: an appetize as. There are two and then ordering the

892
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 4: meal and sitting there for a while, maybe get desserted,

893
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 4: get to go and go home.

894
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 2: Like it was.

895
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 4: It was a full We were taking advantage of that

896
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 4: time slot and eating it up as long as we

897
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 4: could and doing everything because we weren't going to be

898
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 4: there again for another three or four months. Yeah, so

899
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 4: it was like a luxury that I have major luxury

900
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 4: and now and now I put which is funny because

901
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 4: now we can afford it and go to places and

902
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 4: now we're just more kind of like a water and

903
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 4: food and we're out. We don't really do advertisers and

904
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 4: we also don't eat as much too.

905
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 3: I feel like when you are out with your wife though,

906
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 3: are you a water only?

907
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: Are you more apps for everything?

908
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 4: Okay, we dive back in when it was like going

909
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 4: out with my papa, and we did it like we

910
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 4: like it's like, okay, we're going out. We don't we

911
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 4: only go out once a month. The same kind of mindset.

912
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 4: So let's we're ordering drinks, order and.

913
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 2: Soda and water and appetizers and entrees and desserts like

914
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 2: we were stuff in our faces because we're not going

915
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 2: back again for another month.

916
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 3: Is not funny.

917
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, but with your kids. It's water only kids.

918
00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like that water food and get the hell

919
00:33:59,160 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 4: out of there as fast as.

920
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 3: Poll asn't say is it more though because of how

921
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 3: young they are right now and maybe at some point

922
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 3: that might not be the case.

923
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're ticking time bombs.

924
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,919
Speaker 4: You only have a certain window of them being good

925
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 4: and patient and then eventually got to get the hell

926
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 4: out because then everyone's like looking at you and and

927
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 4: we're not. I mean, everyone does their own parenting, but

928
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 4: we're not one of those families where it's like shove

929
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 4: a phone in front of their face so that way

930
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 4: we can have a dinner. It's like, my are their kids?

931
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 4: This is how kids act, This is how kids are

932
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 4: going to be. And sorry, but they're not like running

933
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 4: all over down and like bothering people. But they're you know,

934
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 4: they're they're they're bothering us. We're having to constantly like

935
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 4: go between three kids. But I'd rather them be kids

936
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 4: and eventually acclimate to going out and doing things than

937
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 4: to be a zombie and just being thrown something to

938
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 4: get them to shut up. And then it's for me,

939
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 4: it's frustrating and annoying because then if I'm sitting down

940
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,319
Speaker 4: eating and trying to enjoy my dinner. I got some

941
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 4: asshole or some I got some guy next to me

942
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 4: with this kid on an iPad and it's blaring on

943
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,720
Speaker 4: full blast, And how is everyone numb to that volume?

944
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 4: And I'm over here trying to enjoy my dinner and

945
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 4: I'm hearing them listen to Bluie or Miss Rachel and

946
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 4: I don't want to hear that. Turn it down or

947
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 4: turn it off. Just pairing your kids for a little bit,

948
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 4: they're gonna get rambunctious and crazy.

949
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 2: They're like, Oh, I don't have to deal with it.

950
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 2: Deal with it. You had kids.

951
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: It's a hot take.

952
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 4: I like it, though, Yeah, turn the damn phone off.

953
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 4: It's also disrespectful. I come from a military family, and

954
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 4: in my household growing up, it was the whole like,

955
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,320
Speaker 4: no hats at the table, you know, use your manners,

956
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 4: no one's.

957
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 2: Watching TV or anything. It's like you're fixated on the

958
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,360
Speaker 2: moment of the meal, and so the like, if my

959
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 2: grandfather were alive and saw people with phones at the

960
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 2: dinner table, he would lose his mind and he would

961
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 2: tell you.

962
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 4: He would tell you you're an awful parent. He just watch

963
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 4: those damn kids. Quit having the technology. Watch your kids

964
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 4: and they'll give excuses. And he's like, you can get

965
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,399
Speaker 4: me excuses in the world you want. And that's why

966
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 4: you are who you are.

967
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 2: Because you're full of excuses.

968
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: And I'm like, damn, all right, Grandpa. Kind of hard

969
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:54,800
Speaker 1: he did.

970
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 4: If we were crying, he'd be like, I'll give me

971
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 4: something to cry about, and you reach for the bell.

972
00:35:58,360 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh no, never get her.

973
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 1: Right out right out. We're fine. God. And he was

974
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: in the military.

975
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was a military guy.

976
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, so he came from out upbringing him just kind

977
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 4: of like respect, discipline and being kind to others. But

978
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 4: also you know, he was kind, but he was not

979
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 4: afraid to speak his mind because in his mind he

980
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 4: was the way way he thought was how society should act.

981
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 4: Be decent, be kind, be respectful, be present, be in

982
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 4: the moment. And in a world of phones, I know

983
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 4: he would be like, this is stupid. Put your phone down.

984
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 4: You're here for thirty minutes to an hour. Just no,

985
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 4: don't be involved in that for a moment.

986
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 3: Why can't you? Also, I mean, one of my favorite

987
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 3: things as a kid when we went to restaurants was

988
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 3: to play on the color things that they'd give us,

989
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,320
Speaker 3: Like I loved those coloring.

990
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, my kids do that.

991
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 4: They get the We always ask for the kids menu,

992
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,280
Speaker 4: and they spend the first ten minutes coloring.

993
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 2: We guys, we played tik tac toe.

994
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 4: That's how we occupy our time versus just shoving the

995
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 4: phone in the front of their face and ignoring them

996
00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 4: and then doing whatever it is you're doing. But the

997
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 4: coloring is amazing. That's what we do that constantly, and

998
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 4: then it's entertaining them and it's.

999
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 3: Fun for the parents. I feel like my parents were

1000
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 3: always like involved with us when we were doing it.

1001
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,359
Speaker 3: They were helping us. Yeah, they do the word search

1002
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 3: of the puzzle or whatever was on there.

1003
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. Yeah.

1004
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 4: So I mean, again, I don't want to tell people

1005
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,359
Speaker 4: what to do, but maybe open your mind a little

1006
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,439
Speaker 4: bit and maybe you're one of those parents that gives

1007
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,040
Speaker 4: the kid the phone and just to shut them up

1008
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 4: and it's easy. Yeah, it is easier, but then it

1009
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 4: also then becomes a problem of you've now trained your

1010
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,280
Speaker 4: kids to always want the phone, and that's.

1011
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 2: Also difficult to rip from them.

1012
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 4: But I think it's worth giving it a shot and

1013
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 4: kind of taking things back to the nineties and doing

1014
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 4: the coloring and watching them, and yeah, it's stressful, but

1015
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 4: that's part of being a parent, you know. It's a

1016
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,399
Speaker 4: little bit stressful, it's chaotic, but you will fast forward

1017
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 4: ten years from now and you're gonna be like, crap.

1018
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 4: I wish I would have been a little more involved

1019
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 4: or and like hung out my kids versus just shoving

1020
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:49,399
Speaker 4: technology in their face.

1021
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 3: Well, and honestly, as a server, it was always fun

1022
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 3: when I got the tables where the kids were really

1023
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 3: interactive and I got to have fun with them and

1024
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,839
Speaker 3: bring them ice cream because they were excited and they

1025
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,880
Speaker 3: were engaging with the conversation. Yeah, I had plenty of

1026
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 3: tables that also they were giving them tablets and they

1027
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,680
Speaker 3: were sitting there. I had a mix of everything, yeah, right,

1028
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 3: But I always love the tables where the kids were involved.

1029
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 1: It was fun for me.

1030
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,000
Speaker 3: And I know there's probably a lot of people out

1031
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 3: there that are servers that don't feel that way, but

1032
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 3: that's part of it.

1033
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: The whole point for the server is.

1034
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,399
Speaker 3: To interact with people, and you get to engage with kids,

1035
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 3: and kids sometimes are the best part about the job,

1036
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,879
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like the fun, right, Yeah,

1037
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 3: they're the fun those in regulars. Those are typically your

1038
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 3: two fun moments or highlights of a day.

1039
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I hate going to restaurants now and they

1040
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 4: have that damn tablet on the table, like we can

1041
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 4: go to All Guard or whatever the games, yes, And

1042
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 4: so they'll walk and like, oh, can you play with that?

1043
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 4: And I go nope, and I'll take it. I'll put

1044
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 4: it on the table next to us, or I'll flip

1045
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 4: it upside down. And then when the server comes, they're like, oh,

1046
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:46,959
Speaker 4: you can order. I'm like, nope, I'm ordering with you.

1047
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 4: You're the server. I'm not ordering on a freakin tablet.

1048
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:51,840
Speaker 2: You're here. I don't say these.

1049
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 3: Things, but then you probably hate it when it was

1050
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 3: the QR.

1051
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 4: Codes, because oh my god, I can't stand it. I

1052
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 4: couldn't stand the QR codes.

1053
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:57,800
Speaker 1: Those are pretty brutal.

1054
00:38:57,880 --> 00:38:59,879
Speaker 3: I don't mind the tablets as much because at least

1055
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 3: it's like a screen for it to order on.

1056
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,320
Speaker 1: Like the QR codes were pretty brutal.

1057
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 4: That was brute, Yeah, because then you're on your phone

1058
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 4: and then look at your phone and then I don't know,

1059
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 4: it's a whole thing. But I hate the tablets and

1060
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 4: then I'll put them on another table, and then they

1061
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,360
Speaker 4: still have to pay on that, which is fine, you

1062
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 4: can pay on that like a register, but the kids

1063
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 4: are not playing on that, by the way, they're not touching.

1064
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 2: It's gross. Everyone's touched. It's disgusting. And uh no, we

1065
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 2: used to.

1066
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 3: Have There was a restaurant we used to go to

1067
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 3: called Players growing up, okay, and it was really funny

1068
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,800
Speaker 3: because in each booth you had a teeny tiny TV.

1069
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 3: Do you remember the TVs that had the back Obviously

1070
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 3: they weren't flat screens, but also that were just so

1071
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 3: little and they were like the size of.

1072
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: Your head kind of was there. Each booth had them.

1073
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 3: And we got so excited to go to that place

1074
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,360
Speaker 3: because we didn't care what was on TV. It was

1075
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 3: just we thought it was really cool and novel that

1076
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 3: you could have this little screen at your table. And

1077
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:50,920
Speaker 3: now I think about now and how excited we were

1078
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 3: about that. Yeah, and now they were playing like sports,

1079
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 3: sports games were on it.

1080
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 1: It was it was like a sports bar.

1081
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 4: Okay, so your personal TV of whatever's yeah, and you

1082
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 4: get to watch it.

1083
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: But it was just this teeny tiny TV that was there.

1084
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,760
Speaker 3: And we loved going, but I didn't really watch sports,

1085
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 3: so like I was just excited that it was like

1086
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,320
Speaker 3: a cool thing that not a lot of restaurants.

1087
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 1: Had, would have ye because it's unique and different.

1088
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:11,919
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1089
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 3: But now I think about all the restaurants now and

1090
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:15,440
Speaker 3: all of them have ah.

1091
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:15,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1092
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 3: That just like gave me a flashback of like this

1093
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 3: is obviously we're in the future.

1094
00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, the evolution of it.

00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 3: going to those growing up too, and which dot Kansas

1163
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,919
Speaker 3: When I grew up, like the we had Pizza Hut,

1164
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 3: Taco Bell, Olive Garden, and Applebee's and then it's a few,

1165
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,759
Speaker 3: like local restaurants. Yeah, it wasn't really until I got

1166
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 3: to middle school, high school where they really started adding

1167
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 3: different restaurants and different things. So like, we had our

1168
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 3: few that we went to, but man, those few that

1169
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 3: we went to when we when we could go, we

1170
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 3: would go and we'd have pop and we'd have appetizers,

1171
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 3: and I always get dessert because I was a dessert girl.

1172
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:53,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love dessert.

1173
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,399
Speaker 3: I used to even I would eat desert first when

1174
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 3: we go to Applebee's.

1175
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: Oh really, I would get dessert first.

1176
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 3: It became my thing, okay, because I would always be

1177
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 3: full by the time dessert came. And I didn't want

1178
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:04,400
Speaker 3: to be full because the stir is what I wanted.

1179
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:06,799
Speaker 4: So he didn't care about your meal. No, so you're

1180
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 4: full for your meal, but not for dessert.

1181
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:09,879
Speaker 1: Does there always came first?

1182
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 4: Remember when Taco Bell used to sell chocoate tacos, Oh, yes,

1183
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 4: I do.

1184
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 2: What the hell? Why would you ever remove an item

1185
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 2: that was so good?

1186
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 4: I don't know.

1392
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:23,799

Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So they transitioned ownership in the last I

1406
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 3: want to say, it was like the last month. Yeah,

1407
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:02,439
Speaker 3: And within that you've seen like complain online about having

1408
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 3: zero views and nobody's seeing their stuff. I think a

1409
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:08,719
Speaker 3: lot of what happens when transition an algorithm happens, it's

1410
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 3: like the transition of ownership. The algorithm changes and they

1411
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,879
Speaker 3: decide whoever the new ownership is is like I want

1412
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 3: to do it my way, and they change everything kind

1413
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,160
Speaker 3: of the whole thing. So I don't know if that's

1414
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:21,759
Speaker 3: what's happening with TikTok right now. We don't know like

1415
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,239
Speaker 3: a whole lot about who bought it. We just know

1416
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 3: that it got it has American ties now, whatever that means.

1417
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:31,880
Speaker 3: So I think it'll be interesting to see over the

1418
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 3: next six months what actually transpires. But I used to

1419
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:36,640
Speaker 3: people are still on it. You have a lot of

1420
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:38,400
Speaker 3: people who leave apps. There's a lot of people who

1421
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 3: left Instagram when it was making all of its changes,

1422
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 3: and then people still go back. So still do it.

1423
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:47,359
Speaker 3: But it'll be interesting to see if TikTok holds its

1424
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 3: same value now that the US owns it, because the

1425
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 3: algorithm is different. It's going to be a different company

1426
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,280
Speaker 3: that owns it, much like what we saw happen with Twitter.

1427
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:57,400
Speaker 4: So they don't you can't buy the algorithm moment. They

1428
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 4: don't sell that. They just sell you their rights to

1429
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 4: the name of what it is. Because I remember for

1430
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 4: a while there they're like, we're getting rid of TikTok.

1431
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,920
Speaker 4: It's going away completely, and then they're and then they

1432
00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:06,880
Speaker 4: were like no or not we love TikTok. It's like

1433
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:08,360
Speaker 4: what do you want to do with this thing? Or

1434
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,480
Speaker 4: you wanted or you don't want it, And then now

1435
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:11,840
Speaker 4: they do want it and.

1436
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 2: They got it well.

1437
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,800
Speaker 3: And that's what's hard is we don't quite know what

1438
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,839
Speaker 3: they bought, right, Like, did they just buy so our

1439
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 3: data is in the US now, did they buy multiple

1440
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 3: shares that allow them to have impact over the algorithm,

1441
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:29,759
Speaker 3: did they buy what our geolocations can be like we

1442
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 3: don't really know. At least I haven't done like a

1443
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 3: deep dive to find out what that all was. I

1444
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:36,279
Speaker 3: haven't seen a lot of stories on it yet either.

1445
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:37,080
Speaker 3: It was more just like.

1446
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 1: Us TikTok good.

1447
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 3: It's kind of like what I saw, and then everybody

1448
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 3: experienced a lot of things with that, so it's it'll

1449
00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,759
Speaker 3: be interesting. It'll be interesting to see what happens over

1450
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 3: the next year or so and if it really changes

1451
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:54,759
Speaker 3: or if it just was like a momentary where we're

1452
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,120
Speaker 3: we're fixing this and we're trying to make sure all

1453
00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 3: the data is now in the US and okay, back

1454
00:52:59,560 --> 00:52:59,919
Speaker 3: to normal.

1455
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 4: I have noticed, though, like I don't really use it

1456
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,160
Speaker 4: much like look at other people's stuff.

1457
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 2: I just post mine and move on. But I did

1458
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 2: notice for a while there.

1459
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:08,480
Speaker 4: I mean, it was getting to the point where it

1460
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 4: was so annoying, and it was all these videos and

1461
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 4: people coming on there in their car, by the way,

1462
00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 4: which I don't know what the whole deal is of

1463
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 4: people shooting videos in their freaking car, especially while they're driving, Like,

1464
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 4: good lord, get off your f and phone.

1465
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 1: You're driving a fucking You're.

1466
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 4: Driving a freaking car, Like drive the damn car. You

1467
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 4: wanna know what traffic sucks and there's accidents cause they're

1468
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 4: on your damn phone. Just for thirty minutes. Don't use

1469
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 4: the damn thing and just drive. But everyone wants to

1470
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 4: shoot videos when they're driving. It's the dumbest thing ever.

1471
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:34,960
Speaker 4: And I'll go through it. Some times I comment, I'm like, hey,

1472
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 4: how about you just drive? And everyone's like, oh, you're

1473
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,640
Speaker 4: a loser. I'm like, no, you're a loser. You're on

1474
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 4: your phone looking down instead of at the road. You're

1475
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 4: gonna hit and kill somebody. You're the idiot. And by

1476
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,800
Speaker 4: you supporting that idiot, you're an idiot. Yeah, but my

1477
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 4: algorithm was full of people driving in their car is

1478
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,160
Speaker 4: going like, you gotta post on TikTok three times a day.

1479
00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,080
Speaker 4: I post on TikTok three times a day. I got

1480
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:56,160
Speaker 4: a hundred thousand hours. Here's how you do it. And

1481
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:57,800
Speaker 4: it was all these videos that people been like, you

1482
00:53:57,880 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 4: gotta post every day, you gonna post every day, you

1483
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 4: gotta post every day. I post every day, post three

1484
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 4: times a day, post three times a day. And I

1485
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 4: was like, why is my algorithm telling me to post

1486
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,040
Speaker 4: three times a day. I don't have time to post

1487
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:08,239
Speaker 4: three times a day.

1488
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,399
Speaker 3: No, And again that's the algorithm like wigging out. It's

1489
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 3: having a moment because you shouldn't you You should be

1490
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,239
Speaker 3: getting a bunch of things that are similar. Like if

1491
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 3: you're interacted with one, yeah, then of course it'll pop

1492
00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 3: up more. But once you interact with something else, yeah,

1493
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 3: then it like bounces back. And that's why I say,

1494
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:25,640
Speaker 3: I don't know quite what's happening on.

1495
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:26,759
Speaker 2: Now that's all over the place.

1496
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 4: And then I come in on one came brown video,

1497
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 4: and now I get a bunch of cane brown stuff.

1498
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 4: And then and then I come in on something else

1499
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 4: and I get all of that. It's like, why can't

1500
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 4: I get a mixture of like everything?

1501
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 2: What do I get?

1502
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,839
Speaker 4: Just because I can interact with one thing one time?

1503
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:40,879
Speaker 4: It becomes inundated with that crap.

1504
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 3: Well, and there's a big question of are we going

1505
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:45,040
Speaker 3: to get content from other places because that was a

1506
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 3: big part of why people love TikTok because you were

1507
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:50,840
Speaker 3: seeing things from other countries you were interacting with internationally,

1508
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:51,359
Speaker 3: if you will.

1509
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,440
Speaker 1: And now that's a big question of are we.

1510
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,240
Speaker 3: Going to seed some of that same content? Is content

1511
00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 3: gonna change? There's just a lot there's a lot more

1512
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 3: questions and there are answers. Right now, let's TikTok and

1513
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:04,879
Speaker 3: the same thing happened with Twitter. I mean there's still

1514
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:09,919
Speaker 3: a lot of questions with Twitter. What's happening? So who knows? Yeah,

1515
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 3: welcome to my digital talk with you.

1516
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:15,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can find me on Instagram and TikTok. It

1517
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:19,840
Speaker 4: is Scuba Steve Radio all one word Scuba s tv ideo.

1518
00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:24,120
Speaker 3: But to that point, keep posting, Okay, just you should

1519
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 3: always post until it decides to die, right, Like, you

1520
00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:28,759
Speaker 3: never know.

1521
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:30,000
Speaker 1: Transition is always hard.

1522
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,239
Speaker 3: Change is always hard with anything, but particularly with social

1523
00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:36,320
Speaker 3: media app So don't stop posting just because of people

1524
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 3: being like, I'm not going to be on it anywhere.

1525
00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:39,800
Speaker 3: There's still people on it. There's millions of people on it,

1526
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 3: so there's still millions of people you can reach. You're

1527
00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:45,479
Speaker 3: always going to have that when change happens and people

1528
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:46,920
Speaker 3: are gonna be like, I'm not doing this, and I'm

1529
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,320
Speaker 3: gonna do this, and I'm going to this app and

1530
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 3: I'm going here whatever you're comfortable with, go and do

1531
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:53,719
Speaker 3: those other ones, but still stay on those because you

1532
00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 3: have there's nothing that hurts you to keep posting on

1533
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 3: those until TikTok one day decides.

1534
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:02,280
Speaker 1: To be completely irrelevant. Yeah, that's just the truth of anything.

1535
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:05,360
Speaker 3: Because everybody tried to say that about Facebook when Instagram

1536
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,280
Speaker 3: came into the picture, when Twitter came in the picture

1537
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:10,399
Speaker 3: in snapchat, it was like Facebook's irrelevant. Facebook is still

1538
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,960
Speaker 3: the biggest social media that exists because you have multiple

1539
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:14,800
Speaker 3: generations on it.

1540
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, totally.

1541
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's just how it is.

1542
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 3: But you have a lot of people who'd like to say, like,

1543
00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:21,880
Speaker 3: don't use that, or we're not we shouldn't be doing that.

1544
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:26,760
Speaker 3: But Facebook is literally still the biggest monster that exists

1545
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 3: out there. Yeah.

1546
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:29,759
Speaker 2: I don't even touch Facebook. I just don't.

1547
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,439
Speaker 3: I have a Facebook page like my my personal one,

1548
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 3: like a business one, and it's got almost forty thousand followers. Yeah,

1549
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,520
Speaker 3: and you would think like, Okay, my generation isn't on there.

1550
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 3: There's people that would be on Facebook.

1551
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:41,879
Speaker 1: No, they're there.

1552
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:42,399
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1553
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,880
Speaker 3: You just have to be willing to use something that

1554
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:47,360
Speaker 3: you're not used to to try it, and that's what

1555
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:48,439
Speaker 3: social media is all about.

1556
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:48,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1557
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:51,800
Speaker 1: So that's why I say keep using TikTok okay until it's.

1558
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,279
Speaker 3: Dead in the ground, okay, and then once it's dead,

1559
00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:56,120
Speaker 3: you can bounce off and be like, hey, moving on

1560
00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 3: the next one, next one. Yeah, it's no different than

1561
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:01,040
Speaker 3: Snapchat had that same thing happened too. Snapchat has kind

1562
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 3: of found its way back, but it's really only found

1563
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:05,840
Speaker 3: its way back with the younger generations. You still have

1564
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:07,960
Speaker 3: some older people using it just for their friends, not

1565
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 3: really for content, if you will. Yeah, but people make

1566
00:57:10,560 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 3: a lot of money off Snapchat content.

1567
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:13,000
Speaker 2: Really.

1568
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:17,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, I've never touched Snapchat because that one originally

1569
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:20,520
Speaker 4: started as a way to cheat, because it was the

1570
00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:23,360
Speaker 4: way to send stuff back and forth yep, and then

1571
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 4: if you were to screenshot it or do something with it,

1572
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 4: it would alert them like, oh sorry, I can't cheat

1573
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 4: with that person anymore. So I was like, I really

1574
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:34,720
Speaker 4: can't get behind an app or a product that had

1575
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 4: the basis of, you know, cheating, cheating.

1576
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 2: I'm like, after that, that's stupid.

1577
00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 1: I was the same way.

1578
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:41,680
Speaker 3: Snapchat really burned me in a lot of ways, so

1579
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:43,520
Speaker 3: I like, in college, I quit using it.

1580
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:45,800
Speaker 1: But I do know that a lot of people use

1581
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 1: Snapchat like there.

1582
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:49,240
Speaker 3: Snapchat has its own for you page now, have its

1583
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:52,479
Speaker 3: own content that people specifically put on Snapchat, and people

1584
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 3: still use it to communicate. So it's still there, it's

1585
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:57,120
Speaker 3: just not as functioning as it used to be. And

1586
00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 3: that's that's what will happen, and that when you actually

1587
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,280
Speaker 3: see that full is when you can decide like, we'ren't

1588
00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 3: doing it anymore. I will, but we're not there with

1589
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:04,520
Speaker 3: TikTok yet.

1590
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 2: Okay.

1591
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,920
Speaker 1: All I was like, you could just text me that

1592
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 1: or just text me the video.

1593
00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:10,439
Speaker 2: You don't have to put it through an app.

1594
00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:11,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, but people like disappearing.

1595
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:15,840
Speaker 3: There's something about fantasy of disappearing messages so dumb, you know,

1596
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:17,440
Speaker 3: but you can also do that in text messaging.

1597
00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,040
Speaker 2: Now, make them disappear, yeah, totally. Yeah, yeah, you do.

1598
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:21,880
Speaker 1: There and send it like it never happened exactly.

1599
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, So what are we doing here?
