1
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: Hey everyone, it's Jackie Gilitschneider and Jen Fessler and we

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 1: are two Jersey Jays and happy almost New Years to everyone.

3
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: Be almost New Year's. I'm actually quite excited that we

4
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 2: are side by to twenty twenty four.

5
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 1: I am too, But why are you?

6
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 2: I mean, I think this very very hopeful for twenty

7
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 2: twenty five. It's been a hard year. I think it's

8
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 2: been a hard year for everyone. It's been a hard

9
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 2: year for our country. It's been not to start out

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 2: as Debbie Downer, but you know, it's been so divisive.

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 2: What's happening in Israel has plagued us both, I know,

12
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 2: and it's still happening all year. I'm hopeful for some

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 2: peace and some exciting change in the new year. Yeah,

14
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 2: I'm with you, but it hasn't all been bad. But yes,

15
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 2: I must say, as a Jewish woman, I have carried

16
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 2: a weight on my shoulders every single day. And not

17
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: not that the anti Semitism that's like destroying the world

18
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: right now has impacted me so greatly, but I think

19
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 2: living in a.

20
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: Town that has a hostage, so there's a hostage from

21
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: my town, and it's I think about that family all

22
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: the time, and I just I'm really sad. I'm sad

23
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: I think about you know, when I look at the

24
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: girls that are being held hostage, but they look like

25
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: the same as my daughter, you know, And it's really

26
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: hard to take myself out of that and say this

27
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,959
Speaker 1: is about other people, because it's not like I'm is Israeli.

28
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: And it's just been hard. It's been hard to know

29
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: that's still happening every day. We haven't really spoken about

30
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: it a lot here, I know, because it's politically divisive,

31
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: which shouldn't be. I mean, there should be no political

32
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: divisiveness to the fact that like you support creating these

33
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: innocent hostages and.

34
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: That you're against anti Semitism, yeah, which is running rampant.

35
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: But anyway, for another time.

36
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: Yes, so let's talk New Year's because like it's here,

37
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: I know, what are you doing? What's your plan?

38
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 2: Well, actually, by the time that you guys are hearing this,

39
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to be on a plane home from Mexico,

40
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 2: which I'm so excited about it.

41
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: That's nice. Get out of the snow weather a little bit.

42
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: It's so cold. I feel like it just went from

43
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,680
Speaker 1: like summer to winter and now with the time change,

44
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: like it goes from if there's no afternoon, it's like

45
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: morning and then it's nighttime. You know. So I'm going

46
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: to nice bro, Yeah it will.

47
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: I'm going to celebrate on the day though, so going

48
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: to a friend's house. We're all going to be in

49
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 2: pj's and I'm going to bring over some black eyed peas,

50
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 2: which is a very Southern tradition. You have to eat

51
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 2: black eyed peas on the New Year. Poor good luck.

52
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: Oh. I love that. I went to a pajama party

53
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: at a friend's house the other day. We did a

54
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: cookie swop, Like everybody baked cookies and then we put

55
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: them all out. There was like twenty of us and

56
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: we put all the cookie platters out on a table

57
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: and everyone went around and took home like four of

58
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: everyone else's cookies for themselves. My kids. You loved it

59
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: and crazy. Yeah. So okay, So New Year's Eve, you're

60
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: gonna be in Mexico. New Year's Day, you'll be with

61
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,839
Speaker 1: your friends. That's really nice.

62
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 2: I'll be flying home from Mexico, so I'll probably be

63
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 2: a little depressed, but then New Year's Day, I will

64
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 2: be with my friends.

65
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's nice. That always feeds yourself. I love being

66
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: about your friends. I really prioritize my girlfriends. I love

67
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: I love being around them. It always makes me feel

68
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: good when I am with them. What about like lately

69
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: with you? I'm sorry, interpt.

70
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: I just I feel like lately, ever since like the show,

71
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 2: I just see you with your friends, like very often

72
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 2: on have prioritize them. It's since the show has been

73
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 2: on pause. It's a very different feel, right, It's like.

74
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm I'm like, you know, I love the show

75
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: and I do hope that it keeps going. But in

76
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: the meantime, I'm like enjoying a little bit of the break,

77
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: right I am. I'm trying out new projects. I'm prioritizing friendships.

78
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: I really have extra time for my family. It's been nice. Yeah,

79
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: it's been good anyway. So you know, for many years,

80
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: Evan is not the partier than I am. I could

81
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: go out five nights a week, and he likes going

82
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: out about once a week, and then he's hit his

83
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: social max and he's busy. I mean, he works full time.

84
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: He's always with the kids at basketball, and he likes

85
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: to sit on the couch and he doesn't care. You know,

86
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: he's not ashamed of it. But he does like to

87
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: go out, like once a week, but that's his night out,

88
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: and that's fine. But New Year's we've got into this

89
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: routine of not doing anything. And I was okay with

90
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: that for a while, but now kind of feeling like,

91
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: you know, now one of my almost seventeen year olds

92
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: loves going out. So if he's gonna be out and

93
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: I have to wait up for him anyway, and I

94
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: probably have to pick him up, then I might as

95
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: well go out, right. So I don't know, we're trying

96
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: to decide now because we've, like for a decade, have

97
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: not done anything.

98
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 2: I don't love New Year's Eve and I don't love

99
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 2: going out, so both of those combined, I mean, Jeff

100
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 2: is it's always very surprising to people that know us

101
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: that Jeff is way more interested in going out at night.

102
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 1: Like, so maybe maybe I'll send Evan to your house

103
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: and you can hang on the cap at him. You know,

104
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: I love that, You know I love that Evan Goldschneider. Yeah,

105
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: he's a cutie. So let's see. So let's let's talk

106
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: about the year a little bit, so we are ready

107
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: at the top. You know, talked about some of the

108
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 1: ships and there's no denying there was shit, and on

109
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: both sides of the political aisle there were shits. Right.

110
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: That was ye, so divisive. I've never seen an election

111
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 1: like this in my life.

112
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: It's horrible. Process leading up to it was horrible. It's

113
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: I know that for some people they're they're still in morning.

114
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,119
Speaker 2: Some people are thrilled penceil you ask, but divisive for sure.

115
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just hopeful. I mean like, it is what

116
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: it is, So there's no point in being thrilled, upset

117
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: whatever it is, what it is. Now let's see, right, yes,

118
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: now let's see. So, Jen, what was the best thing

119
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: that happened to you this year? Something good?

120
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 2: No, it's like you know you always as a mom,

121
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 2: I my first thought is always like I always feel

122
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 2: good when good things happen to my kids. Right, So

123
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 2: it's that And my therapist would probably say learn to separate,

124
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 2: probably very dysfunctional, But I think about my kids just

125
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 2: being having good things happened to them. Zach got into

126
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 2: law school, which is which is so exciting. Rachel moved

127
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 2: into the city, which she absolutely loves, and she's working

128
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 2: in pr and she loves that, and so those things

129
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 2: occur to me. But probably that's the wrong way of

130
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: thinking about it, right, Like, no.

131
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: Why being a mom is such an amazing part of

132
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: your life. And also like it's not just your kids

133
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: accomplishing them Like they're accomplishing this because they have a

134
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: support system behind them and because they know that you're there.

135
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: I mean, don't take yourself out of your children's accomplishments.

136
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 2: I absolutely agree with that, But I like everything else,

137
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 2: you know, I want to have my own things going on,

138
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 2: and I think it's so helpful, especially for an empty nester.

139
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 2: So we've had a few really you know, fun things.

140
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 2: I mean, this podcast, well that happened last year.

141
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: But still but like we got renewed, We're yes, we

142
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: got nude. That was exciting.

143
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 2: I loved, I am loving having the segment that I'm

144
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 2: doing on page six. I don't know you guys, have

145
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: anyone's listening to it, but on page six I talk

146
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: about pop culture with Evan and Danny, Like that's been

147
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: really fun in a way to sort of separate out

148
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 2: of the housewives world. We don't discuss housewives, but we

149
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 2: discuss what's going on, you know, all around the world,

150
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: just pop culture, so nothing deep, and it's fun to

151
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 2: just sort of be still in front of the camera

152
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: a little. And but it's different dynamic, right, It's these

153
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 2: two fabulous men and we all love each other. It's

154
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 2: a big love fest and we laugh and we're a

155
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: little shady at times. But nothing that's going to get

156
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 2: me killed. So yeah, that's been really fun. What about you?

157
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, the best thing that happened to me this year.

158
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. It was a tough year. I mean

159
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: I think just that, like this is going to sound

160
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: silly and cliche, but just that everyone is like healthy

161
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: and happy, you know, Like I just like nothing, you know,

162
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: I had a challenging year. So in January, Aiden, my

163
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: my one of my older twins, we were at the

164
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: Madonna concert the night that he broke his knee, mean right,

165
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 1: and he broke his knee, he broke his leg. He

166
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: had a horrific surgery. He was home for a month

167
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 1: after that. He was in so much pain. It was

168
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 1: I was crying, like all day. I slept. I had

169
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: slept in a bed with him downstairs because he couldn't

170
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: move and so he was immobile. So it was a

171
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: really hard month. And then I homeschooled him and then

172
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: he finally made his way back into sports by May,

173
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 1: and in July he broke his shoulder. So it's been

174
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: you know, like watching your kids suffer through something and

175
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: I know that you've been through this too. It's really hard,

176
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: you know, it's hard. Now that all my kids are

177
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: like healthy and doing well, I'm kind of like savoring

178
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: that part of it. Like the fact that I'm not

179
00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: like said about it. I'm getting is a thing. I

180
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: get that.

181
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 2: What they don't tell you about having kids is that

182
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 2: you are always, at least for me, I'm even in

183
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 2: my happiest moments, I'm a little nervous, like I'm always

184
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 2: or you know, I'm thrilled when my kids are happy.

185
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 2: If they're not, it affects me. It's a very difficult.

186
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 2: You know, you have this part of yourself that you

187
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 2: have no control over, right, and you shouldn't. I mean,

188
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 2: the kids have to live their own lives. It's how

189
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 2: you raise them. But you're always sort of just a.

190
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: Little bit on edge. Where are they what are they doing?

191
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: Are they good? Yeah? Especially now I two that are

192
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: gonna start driving soon, and I how do I do that?

193
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: Like I am said, I don't mind driving with them

194
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 1: and teaching them to drive and do it all the time.

195
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 1: But I'm so nervous for them to get their license. Yeah, nervous,

196
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 1: it's not that is not easy. Yeah, there's so much that.

197
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm always worried because my daughter is a

198
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: chronic illness. You just type in my beads and that's

199
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: always kind of something that's you know, with me, I'm

200
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: thinking about.

201
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 2: And but then other stuff there. Yeah, when when both

202
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 2: my kids got their licenses, I was a nervous wrap.

203
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 2: I wouldn't even I couldn't be in the car with

204
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 2: them teaching them. So that was all about jeff. Oh,

205
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 2: I couldn't bear it. It was I freaked out, which

206
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 2: freaked them out. I just I had no.

207
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: But we also we haven't really been on many highways.

208
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: We haven't done anything super challenging. So that's the come

209
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: But okay, so what was the most challenging thing that

210
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 1: happened to you this year and how did you?

211
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 2: I would say that, well, actually, I've been looking at

212
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 2: these questions a little bit, and I would say that

213
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 2: it's challenging and rewarding to be an empty nester. I

214
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 2: know that again back to the kids, but there are

215
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 2: times where I've sort of walked around my house, and

216
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 2: especially with the show being on pause and and it's

217
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 2: trying to figure it all out. You know, I'm at

218
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,719
Speaker 2: the age now fifty six and what does the rest

219
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 2: of my life look like. It's it's an interesting thing

220
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 2: to consider. And also like being in this house. I

221
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 2: mean this, I'm suburban New Jersey in this you know,

222
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 2: colonial with we're paying taxes for the schools, and like

223
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 2: what's the point?

224
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: So what are we? What is our next step?

225
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 2: So that's always on my mind and I think that

226
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 2: has been a challenge, but also it's been at times

227
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: of delight. My house is well not always need the

228
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 2: kids to come home a lot, but like you know,

229
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 2: just waking up jeff Lee's at six thirty every morning.

230
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 2: And there are days I'm really busy, and there are

231
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 2: days that I have nothing going on. The days that

232
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: I have nothing going on, I think I get in

233
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 2: a slump. I get a little depressed. And the days

234
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 2: that I'm yeah, but.

235
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: You had so much going on the other days, you

236
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 1: don't just savor those days. It's like I can relax today.

237
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 2: You know, I think it might seem like I have

238
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 2: so much going on, Like on social media, if you

239
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 2: follow myself for media, although I don't think I posted

240
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 2: that much recently, but I'm posting like events I'm going

241
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 2: to right and I'm I'm posting stuff that I'm doing,

242
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 2: which yeah, I mean that definitely takes time and keeps

243
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 2: me busy, but on a daily I'm not necessarily like

244
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 2: I do the page six thing. Once a week, you

245
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: and I record our podcast, you know, that's that's an

246
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 2: hour every couple weeks.

247
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: It's so I'm always.

248
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 2: Posting about those things or I'm going to an event,

249
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 2: or I'm but there's a lot of downtime for me

250
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 2: now without having the kids in the house, and you know,

251
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 2: I fill it with friends. And I actually knew this

252
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 2: year is working out, and but I'm always better when

253
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 2: I'm busier, when I've got something like my One of

254
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 2: my favorite times was when I was writing the song

255
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 2: when I was learning guitar and writing the song for

256
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 2: the end for the finale of the Housewives.

257
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that was a great song.

258
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: So that was one of my favorite things that happened

259
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 2: this year, was writing that silly song. That was just

260
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 2: I love doing that so much. It's so it was

261
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 2: so creative and it was I don't know. It was

262
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 2: so satisfying for me. And then, of course, in true

263
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 2: gen festal form, I didn't pick up the guitar again

264
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 2: when it was over.

265
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: So, but oh didn't you write Challenge Part two? Yeah?

266
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: But then yeah, that was pretty soon after. Oh okay, oh,

267
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: and you haven't written. You know, I play the piano

268
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: so and I know every time my house is empty,

269
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: I play. I can't play when people are home because really, yeah,

270
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: because they don't like the noise from it. But also,

271
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: like I don't know, they like make fun.

272
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 3: Of me, right, they make fun of me, to think

273
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 3: at my house they associate piano with like something I

274
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 3: forced them to do when they were little, and I

275
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 3: really just went back to it.

276
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: But I'm very good. I'd like, I want to get

277
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: a I want to get like a ten to twenty

278
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: song rotation that I can play just by heart. And

279
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: I want to I want to play in a band

280
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: one day. That's like a bucket list thing for me,

281
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: just for one day, just one night only, Jackie Goldschnighter,

282
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: one night only. I love that.

283

Speaker 2: let's see, let's see.

285
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: I have a couple of projects that I want to

286
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 1: accomplish in twenty twenty five. But funny thing that happened

287
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: to you this year? I can't think. I don't know

288
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: any like I'm sure I have. I'm sure we're going

289
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: to sign off from this, and I'm that was the

290
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: funny thing that happened to me this year. I'm trying

291
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: to remember, Like I did laugh a lot this year,

292
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: but I don't know. I don't know if there was

293
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: anything particularly really funny.

294
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 2: Well, I went to Vietnam with Jeff this year, and

295
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 2: we laughed our way through that trip. Whether it was

296
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 2: we went on this uh these motor scooters what they called,

297
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 2: I don't know what they could pads, the mopads or

298
00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 2: whatever it is, so we circle around them. I'm want

299
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 2: to say, was it in it's gone. I don't remember exactly,

300
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 2: but uh, we stopped off. The tour had a stopping off.

301
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 2: It was like a food tour, and we were so

302
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: sick to our stomachs by the time it ended. There

303
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 2: was so it went on for hours, and I just

304
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 2: remember like he and I trying to be so polite

305
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 2: to these tour guides and both of us being there's

306
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: just and you know, and being with him, just him,

307
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 2: would that far away. We always have were always able

308
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 2: to make fun of each other and laugh, and that

309
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 2: whole trip we were it was one of those like

310
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: moments in time where we were in awe of Vietnam

311
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 2: but also just hysterical the entire time. The culture is

312
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 2: so different than ours and you know, getting used to

313
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: that and being I don't know, on fishing boats and

314
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 2: we it was fun and we laughed a lot.

315
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably traveling. Yeah, we went to we took the

316
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: kids to Europe the first time. We went to Italy.

317
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: We spent a week in Rome with the kids, and

318
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: it was just amazing. I am like, I was flabbergasted

319
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: by how many people watch the show that were in Rome.

320
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 1: I got stopped constantly, Like Vietnam, you watched the show,

321
00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:23,160
Speaker 1: especially people from like London, people from Canada. They love

322
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: these shows. They watch all of them. I don't think

323
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: I watched any shows from overseas.

324
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,479
Speaker 2: It's true though, I remember when I was in in Rams,

325
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 2: I got stopped a couple times. Yeah, like in weird

326
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 2: places like shopping or whatever.

327
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: You're Worldwidefesla, I'm worldwide, baby. Let's fast forward just for

328
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: one second, since we're on the topic of shows, I

329
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 1: have to tell you I just watched a show. I'm

330
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: not going to ruin it obviously for anyone, and I

331
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: really liked it all the way through, and then my

332
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,680
Speaker 1: mind was is freaking blown in the last episode. It's

333
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: called Disclaimer. Have you watched that? No with what's her name?

334

Speaker 1: Oh god, that blonde actress. I'm blinking right now. That

335
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 1: was a hold on, let me remember hold on one second.

Speaker 1: It was Kevin Kleine n Klein, the woman who's married

337
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 1: to Sean Penn, who's absolutely Robin Wright. No, no, she

338
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,120
Speaker 1: was married to him a million years ago.

339
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 2: He's married Sean Penn. Now I thought he was just

340
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 2: new young Sorry, okay, yeah.

00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: Oh no, she was married to him for two years.

343
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,640
Speaker 1: She's much much younger than him. She's absolutely stunning. It's

344
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:53,480

Speaker 2: those books.

386
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: Yeah. Watch. We watch a lot of House Hunters. We

387
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: love it. Play it like a game. Yeah, so like

388
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: we pause after they've seen all the houses. You know

389
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 1: how it works, right, like the real estate agent takes.

390
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,199
Speaker 1: We only watched the international ones so we can like

391
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 1: fantasize about living somewhere else and not that New Jersey

392
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: is not like fabulous. But they they take the person

393
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: or couple to three different homes and then we pause

394
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: it and we bet which house they're gonna choose, and

395
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: it's so much fun. But it's like formulae, like one

396
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 1: person always wants to live in the city center, and

397
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: one person always wants to live in the suburbs, and

398
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: one person always wants to be by the water, and

399
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: one person always wants to be walking distance to the town.

400
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 1: You know. So it's like, but it's really fun and

401
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 1: it's mindless, and it's a half hour and it's easy.

402
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: It's all about the mindless TV. I mean, listen, and

403
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: we love Amazing Race. Actually, do you watch that? No,

00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,640
Speaker 1: right or even like in the nineties, like Jerry Seinfeld

460
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 1: was dating a seventeen year old Shawna. Yeah, I love

461
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: oh you could never although you do have Bill Belichick

462
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: dating like, Oh, I can't even with that, right, I mean,

463
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: it's just what's the appeal? I don't what, I don't know. Anyway,

464
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 1: we're going off on a tangent. But wait, I want

465
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 1: to talk about my favorite movie. Did you grow emotionally

466
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 1: this year? Wait?

467
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 2: I'm not fun talking about the movies because I want

468
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:14,479
Speaker 2: to do it that I loved. I did love Wicked,

469
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 2: by the way, but but everybody, Oh, I didn't see

470
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 2: it amazing and we saw it at the IPIC, which

471
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:23,159
Speaker 2: is like undercovers with the chicken fingers, and it was

472
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 2: just incredible.

473
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 1: But anyway, Oh, can I just tell you one thing

474
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: though that bothers me about Wicked is that Kristin Chenowith

475
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: used to like me and message. I used to talk

476
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: to her sometimes on Message and she followed me and

477
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: she doesn't like Teresa and so she has unfollowed me.

478
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,959
Speaker 2: So I kind of that is heartbreaking. Although you do

479
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 2: know that Kristin chen well, she is in Wicked, she

480
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:51,200
Speaker 2: is in this one, which was I understand that, and

481
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 2: I feel badly for you because I there's first of all,

482
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 2: Wicked was just unbelievable, but also I love me some

483
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 2: Kristin Chenow with I wish you hadn't told me that.

484
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 2: Now I'm sure she's lovely. I was Dimonzel, the very

485
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:08,479
Speaker 2: minor friendship. Well this so the movie that I loved

486
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 2: was called A Real Pain and it was with Kieran

487
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 2: Coulkien and Jesse Eisenberg and it's about these cousins. I

488
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 2: don't want to give anything away, but they travel. Their

489
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 2: grandmother dies and so they travel. I'm going to get

490
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 2: this wrong, and it's so ridiculous. I want to say

491
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 2: they travel to I think it's Poland, right, Yeah, I

492
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 2: was going to say Germany. And it wasn't. Thank you, No,

493
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 2: I heard of it. It was really quite incredible, and

494
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 2: the acting in it was so superb over the top ridiculous.

495
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 2: Narent's the one who's in succession. Yes, correct, is unbelievable, unbelievable,

496
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 2: and he plays like this, this kind of a manic

497
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 2: young man, and Jesse Eisenberg plays this very uptight person

498
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 2: and they But the beautiful thing about it was it

499
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 2: was a lot about the Holocaust and finding their grandmother's

500
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 2: childhood home and talking about they I don't want to

501
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,719
Speaker 2: give anything away, but it was so beautifully done. Really

502
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 2: haven't seen a movie like that where I walked away

503
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 2: just you know, feeling like I had been sort of transported. Yep,

504
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 2: it's called a real pain.

505
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: Tell me if you have grown emotionally or spiritually this year,

506
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 1: certainly hope.

507
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,640
Speaker 2: So, since I pay almost two hundred dollars a week

508
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 2: for therapy, yeah, tell you.

509
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: I had therapy this morning and.

510
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 2: We spoke about about Rachel, about my daughter, and she

511
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 2: was going through something over the last couple of days.

512
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 2: And I've learned she's twenty two years old. When she

513
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 2: goes through something. We started out talking about this, but

514
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 2: when she goes through something, not to take it on

515
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 2: as my own, and not that I'm always there when

516
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 2: she needs me, but she could be going something through something.

517
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 2: I attached to it in my mind. I can't let

518
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,280
Speaker 2: it go. It's on my mind all day. And then

519
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 2: she resolves whatever it is, and I'm you know, I

520
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 2: spend a whole day it's just a little dysfunctional. So

521
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 2: I feel like I've grown in that. In this particular instance,

522
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 2: I kind of separated. I said, she's twenty two, and

523
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 2: I trust that she could handle this, and I'm going

524
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 2: to give her the space to handle it, so that

525
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 2: that's I.

526
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: Hope one way. And my son who is in law school,

527
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 1: who is.

528
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: Not doesn't have time now to call mommy every day,

529
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 2: and you know, so to also take a step back

530
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 2: and know that he's doing his thing and not to

531
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 2: be overbearing, which I tend to be. So I feel

532
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 2: like I've grown in both of those days. Maybe also

533
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 2: I've gotten I've gotten more patient this year. I think

534
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 2: that show being on pause has been so strange for us,

535
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,280
Speaker 2: and I have been doing it like you have, Jack. Obviously,

536
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 2: I've only been doing this for I did it for

537
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 2: two years and different yeas.

538
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:08,760
Speaker 1: But you know what I say, I think that that

539
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: that that makes you want it more than me, Like

540
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: not that I don't want it, but like I've had

541
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 1: it for a long time, and I'm okay, if this

542
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: is the end of the road, I'm totally fine. It's

543
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: not about it just got started with the excitement. The

544
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: not knowing. Yeah, that bothers me. I'd like either to

545
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: know what my job's going to be or to have closure. Yeah,

546
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's what I mean.

547
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,239
Speaker 2: My patience though it's like and everyone's always asking us,

548
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 2: right and we don't we have no idea and guessing

549
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 2: game and all of that.

550
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: So patients, Okay, what about you. I have grown emotionally.

551
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: I've had to well, you know, I'm still you know,

552
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: in recovery, and i still make like baby steps every day.

553
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: And it's not it's not super easy for me. It's

554
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 1: easier or harder. No, Well, the problem is that, like recovery,

555
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 1: getting rid of like the big stuff, like the not

556
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: eating getting rid of that was great. I was so

557
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: excited adding new foods to my diet. Great, so excited.

558
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: But it's like the little things, like the nitty gritty

559
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: like it's like the not being afraid of specific foods.

560
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: It's like the not feeling guilty after a meal. It's

561
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: like the not overthinking before a restaurant. Like the little

562
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: teeny tiny day to day things. Sometimes they are a

563
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: little bit hard for me. I've gained some weight over

564
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: the past few months, and that's been a little bit

565
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: hard for me. Not because I don't I mean, the

566
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: trade off is worth it. The trade off of having

567
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: that freedom is worth it. It's just it doesn't seem fair

568
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: to me because I'm not like going crazy, I'm not

569
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: eating everything that I love to eat. I still work

570
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: out daily and like to gain weight when you're not

571
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 1: doing anything that warrants gaining weight is hard, especially when

572
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,840
Speaker 1: like so many people around me are slimming down, you know.

573
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: So that's been hard. But also I feel like I

574
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,479
Speaker 1: feel very empowered that, like I'm in control and how

575
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: I feel about it, and so I'm proud. I choose

576
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 1: to be proud of it instead of being ashamed of

577
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: it because I'm still like, I'm still me. It doesn't matter,

578
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: you know, a few pounds up, a few pounds down.

579
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 1: I'm enjoying letting myself fluctuate because I've never had that before.

580
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 1: You know, for twenty years, I had to keep my

581
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: weight within a one pound range or else. It like

582
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 1: drove me crazy, and I don't weigh myself, but I

583
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: know I've gained weight. So just being okay with that,

584
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 1: I feel like, is something that I've never had before.

585
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: Even in my first like two years of recovery, the

586
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: weight was really uncomfortable for me. Like now it's it's

587
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: just part of me and like it is what it is, right,

588
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: So I feel like that's a big, big growth for me.

589
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: I've also calmed down down one thing I'm really proud

590
00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: of this year. It's no surprise the show was not

591
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,479
Speaker 1: great for me this year, right, And it's fine and

592
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: it's done, and like the hatred has stopped. But for

593
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: a month, for like a month, I got horrific social

594
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 1: media hates. And that's fine. But I'm really proud of

595
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: signing off of social media for a month. I went

596
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: off at the beginning of August and I didn't go

597
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 1: back until the beginning of September or the end of August.

598
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 1: And that was so great because all the shit really

599
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 1: just exists in your phone, right, Like, yeah, I really

600
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: hates you, Your friends don't really hate you. My friends

601
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: couldn't give a shit about it, right, Like your family

602
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: doesn't care. So it really just exists in your phone.

603
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 1: So I think that was one of the wisest things

604
00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,840
Speaker 1: that I've ever done, was just the leading it for

605
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: a month. And I think I would have caused myself

606
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 1: a lot of distress had I not. And it makes

607
00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: me want to in the new year kind of change

608
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: my relationship with social media more. Yeah, I think it's

609
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 1: really no. I think that's a great goal. I think

610
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: for all of us. Did you hear the TikTok is

611
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: getting abolished in January. I didn't hear January. I thought

612
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: I'd have to go through your more legal processes.

613
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 2: But I could be wrong. I think I just heard

614
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 2: that like this morning. I probably heard it on Titch.

615
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 2: Just got on TikTok too. Guys follow me, and so

616
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 2: I took Jackie Goldschneider. I'm scared to look at it.

617
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 1: I haven't looked at it at what the page is,

618
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: but I have to have you come up for me.

619
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: Like usually if it was that like Jackie Gold one

620
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: hundred or something like that, I should check what my

621
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: name is. Because someone took Jackie Goldschneider. I'm fairly confident

622
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 1: there's not other Jackie gold Schnyders walking around. I'm at

623
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: Jackie Gold one hundred and I only share eating disorder content.

624
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: But I don't know what the other Jackie gold Schnyder.

625
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 2: According to what I saw on TikTok, It's not going

626
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 2: to matter much longer anyway, but I guess we'll see

627
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 2: you know when.

628
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 1: I gos ANITA Gala this year. I hosted the National

629
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: Eating Disorder Association Gala this year and so amazing one

630
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: of the most amazing highlights of my year, Like I

631
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: can't believe how I try. I want to say full circle,

632
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: but it's not full circle because I wasn't at that

633
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: point to begin with. But like half circle? How half

634
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: circle I've come? Yeah, I love it all right? Favorite

635
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: song this year? I mean, the thing is that, like

636
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 1: I'm always listening to old songs. I'm you know, I'm listening.

637
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,479
Speaker 2: I put on It's totally embarrassing, but I'm like listening

638
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:30,840
Speaker 2: to eighties music and seventies music and more than huge huge.

639
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 2: I don't listen to pop. I'm a huge all rock person.

640
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 2: I know that always freaks me out about you. Oh,

641
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 2: I love it weird much.

642
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 1: There there were a few songs that I loved this year,

643
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: but I have to say my favorite is there's a

644
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 1: band called Cage the Elephant. Do you listen to them?

645
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: So they put out a new album a song called

646
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: Neon Pill that just gets it. I just love it.

647
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: I love Hosier too. Oh he's so good.

648
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 2: I mean you're talking like we're going jingle ball in tomorrow. Actually, yeah,

649
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 2: it's gonna be so much fun. I'm so excited. But

650
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,399
Speaker 2: if if truth be told, I don't I mean Katie Perry, right,

651
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 2: Sizza's Sabrina Shaboozy Shaboozy, I don't think so good, I

652
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 2: have to say in terms of pop Sabrina Carpenter song

653
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 2: taste is so I have a teenage daughter, and like,

654
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 2: so I feel like an idiot sometimes when I like,

655
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 2: I'm like running, you know, when I run, I put

656
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 2: on music, I like, I don't want to run to

657
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,320
Speaker 2: the stuff that like she's listening to with her friends

658
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 2: and doing tiktoks too, you know, because then I feel like,

659
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, I feel like I'm right, it's her style.

660
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 1: I know. No, I totally get that. I totally get

661
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 1: that funny, like it's so funny and this is off topic,

662
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 1: but like god, how did how did we get old

663
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 1: so fast?

664
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 2: I was just I mean, you're talking. I can't even

665
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 2: have that discussion with you. You're a baby.

666
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: I'm not a baby, Jet, you're a baby. Comparatively, I

667
00:35:55,200 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 1: mean six, you are, I'm year and a half. Okay,

668
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: you're forty eight. I don't know, Jackie. The difference is

669
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: it's huge.

670
00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 2: I mean, fifty six and at forty eight, I don't

671
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 2: even think I was feeling my age like after fifty

672
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 2: my age No, I mean like, I don't think I

673
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 2: was even that qu like now fifty six. It's things

674
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 2: are different, Like my body feels different. Even sometimes when

675
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 2: I would watch myself on camera, the way that I

676
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,359
Speaker 2: move felt I was watching myself. And of course we're

677
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,120
Speaker 2: our own worst critics, but I felt like I was

678
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: moving like an old person, you know. And also that

679
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 2: probably is one of the reasons why I started exercising

680
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,720
Speaker 2: again and lifting weights. But like I remember watching back

681
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 2: when Rachel Fuda had this had the pajama party.

682
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: Do you remember that?

683
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:54,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, silly stuff, but watching myself walk from her boyer

684
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 2: into like where her bar area was or is, and

685
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 2: I remember, We're just seeing that back and thinking, you

686
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 2: you walk like an old person.

687
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:06,880
Speaker 1: You know. It's like I never saw you walk like

688
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 1: an old well you would, I mean you probably wouldn't

689
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: because you're not looking for that. But it's weird. It's

690
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 1: like the aging thing is is, Yeah, maybe working out

691
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 1: we'll help with that. You find strength. Okay, So let's see.

692
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,840
Speaker 1: Let's see what else. The best meal you had this

693
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: year was your best meal in Vietnam? Vietnam, Oh my god,

694
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: my best meal if anyone is visiting Rome, was in

695
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,320
Speaker 1: like by far, hands down, no comparison. In a town

696
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: called Trustevere, there was a restaurant called Taverna Treloosa that

697
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 1: was I mean just Evan and I were just staring

698
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 1: at each other the whole meal, like, did you try this?

699
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,480
Speaker 1: Did you try this? It was unbelievable that it was unbelievable. Yeah,

700
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:55,840
Speaker 1: it was so good. Favorite trend, favorite trend? Gosh, what's yours?

701
00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:00,040
Speaker 1: I am so surprised to hear myself say that I

702
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:05,760
Speaker 1: love the barrel jean, do you I that's so funny

703
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 1: that you say that. I think you have to.

704
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 2: Find the right one bow legged. So I didn't like

705
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 2: it either until I found the right one. I just

706
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 2: bought a pair of page and I love them really

707
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 2: and yes, yes, And I can't put on skinn jeans anymore.

708
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: No, I don't wear my skinny jeans. I'm wearing wide

709
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 1: leg right now. But I have not tried barrel jeans yet.

710
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 1: Maybe I will try them. I'm shocked that I love them,

711
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 1: but I love them all right. I love that. I

712
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 1: actually nice. This year, I've been wearing a lot of

713
00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 1: those New Balance three twenty seven sneakers. Yeah. Oh, I've

714
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: sorted wearing a lot of sneakers. I like it, like

715
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 1: a chunky white sneaker. I've been like really into. So

716
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: all right, so let's let's get into our hopes for

717
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: the new year. Do you make resolutions? No?

718
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 2: No. When I was younger, it was always lose weight.

719
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,400
Speaker 2: Right every year, it was the same thing, and up

720
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 2: until the New Year, I would bringe, like literally, I

721
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 2: would think it's coming, it's coming on New Year's Day,

722
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:06,880
Speaker 2: and then on New Ye's Day, I would say, well,

723
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 2: it's New Year's Day. You have to eat and I'm not.

724
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 2: You know, we've talked about that that. I've also had

725
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 2: suffered with eating disorders at times in my life, but.

726
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 1: That was always the resolution.

727
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 2: It was always to lose weight, which I don't do anymore,

728
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 2: like at all, And I don't really do resolutions, but.

729
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,280
Speaker 1: Do you know what, It's not that I do likes

730
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: like hardcore resolutions, but there are things that I'd like

731
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,800
Speaker 1: to see happen. They're mostly like career goals because obviously

732
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: I can't resolve to have my children behave in certain ways.

733
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:42,839
Speaker 1: You know, when they're good kids, I just want them

734
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 1: to be happy, So they're mostly like career goals. I

735
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: have a lot of career goals and a lot of ideas,

736
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: And every day I throw shit at the wall and

737
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,720
Speaker 1: see what sticks, and ninety nine percent of it doesn't stick,

738
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 1: but that one percent that does is really exciting. So

739
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 1: I think I have like a whole bunch of things

740
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: that I have to consistently remind myself to stick with

741
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: because I love immedia gratification. But you know, this year

742
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: I read this book Atomic Habits. Do you read that?

743
00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,759
Speaker 1: And it was talking about God. They had the best

744
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,279
Speaker 1: analogy and it was like, you know, you leave an

745
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 1: ice cube on a counter in a room, and if

746
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 1: you gradually heat the room up from like zero degrees

747
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: to thirty one degrees, nothing is going to happen to

748
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,720
Speaker 1: that ice cube. But the minute it hits thirty two degrees,

749
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 1: that ice cube is going to start to melt. Right,

750
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: So it's everything you did up until that point that

751
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 1: prepare that ice cube to melt. It wasn't just that

752
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,720
Speaker 1: one thing of hitting thirty two degrees that made it happen.

753
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:47,840
Speaker 1: It was all the steps before that, Right, So I

754
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,759
Speaker 1: have to consistently remind myself that planting the seeds and

755
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 1: the little things that don't actually make anything like go boom.

756
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,279
Speaker 1: Are what leads up to that you know, gratifying moment

757
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 1: where something does happen for you, So planting a lot

758
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: of seeds, you know, and so I have to stick

759
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 1: with it. That's my resume definitely. That's actually something I

760
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 1: did learn.

761
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,879
Speaker 2: I have to say this year, this past year, is that,

762
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 2: like I can, I hate the word manifest and let

763
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 2: me not use that word, but but I do have

764
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:20,480
Speaker 2: an ability to think, wow, what about this and then

765
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:24,320
Speaker 2: put it into play, which I think that I struggled

766
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 2: with for so long. I mean, I created a business

767
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 2: and I always say this is going back when I

768
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 2: was fifty. But the reason that I stuck with it

769
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,320
Speaker 2: was because I brought people into it, and I people

770
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 2: invested emotionally in it and financially and so you know,

771
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 2: in f major and so there was no squirming out

772
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 2: of it, because MY tendency through the years has been

773
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,600
Speaker 2: to have a big idea and then you know, squirm

774
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,880
Speaker 2: and and sort of just like not really you know, dedicated, But.

775
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: You busted your ass with that. I remember the first

776
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 1: time I met you years ago.

777
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 2: No I know, but that was again, I mean, I

778
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:00,839
Speaker 2: I had put myself into busines where I couldn't square

779
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 2: them out. So but but I have this past year,

780
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 2: I've had like what about this?

781
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 1: What about this?

782
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 2: And actually putting that into motion, you know, like the

783
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 2: Housewives thing. I got a call from a casting director

784
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 2: and then that I didn't have to do much except

785
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 2: to show up, you know what I mean, I didn't.

786
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,720
Speaker 1: I wasn't creating a show or creating something for myself.

787
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 2: That was more like I got an opportunity and I

788
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:27,760
Speaker 2: happily took it right, but actually coming up with stuff

789
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 2: now again, while we're we don't know what the future is,

790
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 2: you know, of the show, and I've been able to

791
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,800
Speaker 2: do some things I don't know that I'm I'm pleased

792
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 2: that I've been able to put things in motion this year,

793
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:41,360
Speaker 2: and I will I hope, I hope that I'll be

794
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 2: able to do that again.

795
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of exciting not knowing what will happen.

796
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,280
Speaker 1: Like as long as my the people I love are healthy,

797
00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 1: then I'm kind of like excited to see like what happens.

798
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 1: You know.

799
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 2: You know, I have a friend who is just had

800
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 2: some just found out that he's having some health issues,

801
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 2: some serious ones, and yeah, I mean it just changes.

802
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 1: Everything right in an instant, right, and I'm yeah, And.

803
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:12,719
Speaker 2: I want to say when I think about the coming year,

804
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 2: my part of part of it. I'm not trying to

805
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 2: say this that I'm so altruistic, but like, I just

806
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 2: think about my dear friend and I want to be

807
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 2: able to be as strong for her and make this

808
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 2: if I can, in any way easier, and like it'll

809
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,799
Speaker 2: be a good year if I can help. I mean,

810
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 2: I had another friend years back who was diagnosed with

811
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:42,600
Speaker 2: ovarian cancer and for a few years she passed and

812
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:47,560
Speaker 2: this friend won't but thank god. But anyway, the point

813
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 2: is that it was hard. It was really hard to

814
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 2: be a close friend of someone going through that way,

815
00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 2: harder for her than it was for me. And as

816
00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 2: I look when I look back at it, I think

817
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 2: I did everything that I could to make it easier

818
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 2: for her. You know, That's the only thing that was

819
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 2: gratifying in any way about it, is that I think

820
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 2: I helped make it.

821
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're a really good friend. I'm not trying to

822
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 1: be like I think the important thing that I want

823
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: to carry into the new year is that like there's

824
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 1: never there's never a year where everything is great. There's

825
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,719
Speaker 1: never a year where everything's bad. There's never a time

826
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:27,839
Speaker 1: in your life. You know. I used to wait a

827
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 1: lot and say I'll do this when things ease up,

828
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: and I'll do this when I'm not like said about something,

829
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 1: And there's never going to be that time. You just

830
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 1: got to like do what you do and let life

831
00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 1: be life, you know.

832
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,399
Speaker 2: And no one gets away Jack, That's what I tell

833
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:47,440
Speaker 2: my kids. No one gets away, no matter what in

834
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 2: it might be a small thing that you think is

835
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:50,759
Speaker 2: small or big or not.

836
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 1: But the struggles real period, full stop. That's I guess. Yeah.

837
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:56,920
Speaker 1: And we got these drones flying over New Jersey and

838
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 1: who knows what the inside of them? Right, I don't

839
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 1: talk about those. That's freaks. How we actually make it

840
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: to the new year, give me God forbid? That is

841
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 1: it's in my chai. Wow. Yes, people intend if we

842
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:09,800
Speaker 1: find we're taking.

843
00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 2: Pictures of them, I don't get it, and no one

844
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 2: can figure it out, I know.

845
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:13,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

846
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's hope you're still here on Earth without the

847
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:21,760
Speaker 2: Martians twenty in them.

848
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: Okay, So message for listeners next year, God, I would say,

849
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:34,800
Speaker 1: follow through on the things that you are dreaming about,

850
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 1: because it's really easy to let your dreams die in

851
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,480
Speaker 1: your head because things take effort, you know, and be

852
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: okay with rejection. I'm saying that out loud for me

853
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 1: also because rejections are part of it and I hate rejection.

854
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,279
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, well.

855
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 2: I said, I don't really make don't really make resolutions,

856
00:45:56,480 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 2: but I would recommend therapy for anyone who's not in

857
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 2: his because I do feel like each year I I

858
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 2: do grow. I grow, like we talked about a little

859
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 2: bit emotion bestationally and.

860
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, therapy is the greatest gift you can give yourself.

861
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 2: I would agree with that. I would agree with that. Okay, then,

862
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 2: well listen, and I also hope in twenty twenty five,

863
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 2: you guys keep listening to us, and I hope that

864
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 2: we are. I don't know if either we're amusing you,

865
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:27,840
Speaker 2: or you can relate, or you don't feel and we

866
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 2: talk about certain things, maybe you don't feel so alone.

867
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 2: You know, we try. I think with Jersey Jays, we

868
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 2: both tried to be honest and open and because that's it, right,

869
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 2: It's all about connecting with people. So I hope we

870
00:46:41,640 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 2: get to continue that in twenty twenty five. Yeah, we've
