WEBVTT - SUNDAY SAMPLER - The Nashville Podcast Network (12-8-24) 0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:11.760 Hey guys, Sunday Sampler Time, just some of the podcasts 0:00:11.760 --> 0:00:14.200 from the Nashville Podcast Network. Since a lot of people 0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:17.000 don't put up podcasts on Sundays, we put this up 0:00:17.239 --> 0:00:18.759 maybe here a little bit of what you like, and 0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:21.000 you go listen to the whole thing. In the Vets 0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:24.200 Office with Doctor Josie, Doctor Josie sat down with doctor 0:00:24.239 --> 0:00:26.520 Amy Addis, who is a house called Veterinarian in New 0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:29.800 York City. So that means celebrity pets like share Billy, Joel, 0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:32.520 Joan Rivers and some crazy stories. So that's pretty cool. 0:00:32.760 --> 0:00:35.880 Four Things with Amy Brown. I had Marcus King on 0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:39.040 Who's Awesome Morgan's podcast? Oh that's coming up here, but 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:40.720 I do want to get started with a clip from 0:00:40.720 --> 0:00:43.239 in the Vets Office with Doctor Josie, with that New 0:00:43.320 --> 0:00:44.240 York City Vet. 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:56.560 You're listening to In the Vets Office with Doctor Josie Horschhak. 0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:01.920 The people you got close to you were pretty high profile. 0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:04.760 And what I have noticed on this podcast especially is 0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:08.679 will have stars, country music stars or like Bobby Bones 0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:10.440 come on and you talk to them about their career 0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:13.080 and their goals, and they're they're kind of one person. 0:01:13.600 --> 0:01:15.120 And then when you talk to them about their animals, 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.720 you can just see like a completely different side of them. 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.000 I think just from watching her on TV that Joan 0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:24.399 Rivers is pretty intimidating. I'm assuming that you probably saw 0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:26.920 a lot more of a softer side to her with 0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:27.520 her animals. 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:31.880 I saw all sides of Joan Rivers. She was an 0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:36.360 enormous personality. She was driven in a way that very 0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:37.160 few people are. 0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:38.160 When I would go. 0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:40.640 Into her home to work with the dogs, there would 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:44.520 be posted on the refrigerator her daily schedule, and it 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:49.880 said things like up at five, exercise, makeup, leave for studio, 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:54.280 and then her entire day was calculated down to the 0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:57.400 moment and it ended at midnight. I mean, she was 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.400 very regiment, old enough to be more than my mother, 0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:02.360 and she had a schedule that would have run me 0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:06.600 into the ground. So she was an enormously busy person, 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:11.840 and she was extremely demanding, and her dogs were so 0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:15.440 important to her. So I was used to getting yelled 0:02:15.480 --> 0:02:18.040 at on occasion or emails that I wish she had 0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:21.760 never sent to me. But when she was finished with that, 0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:25.000 she turned out to be, of course a very dear friend. 0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:28.720 So we would go through the cycles of Joan's love 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:33.040 and her wrath. She was an enormous supporter of mine. 0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.919 When I started my house call practice, she told everyone 0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:40.840 she knew. The relationship over those years turned into a lovely, 0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:44.480 lovely friendship where we went out to dinner together. I 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:47.560 mean she called one day. We had homes close to 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.200 each other, about one hundred miles north of New York City, 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:53.160 and she called and said, take me to the movies 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:54.040 on Saturday night. 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:55.880 So it was like she didn't ask. 0:02:56.200 --> 0:02:59.440 Of course, she didn't ask a question. She would have 0:02:59.800 --> 0:03:04.240 the most beautiful dinner parties where the group of people 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:07.440 around the table were just from all different types of 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:12.040 parts of her life, and every person felt like they 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:16.359 were the guest of honor. She was an enormously gracious, warm, 0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:21.560 loving person with a little bit of a biting part. 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:21.880 Of her person. 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:23.320 You don't want to be on her bad side. Oh no, 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.440 I love the story about her Yorky. I think it 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:30.480 was a Yorky that you had encouraged her to get 0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:33.359 a surgery that she did not really want to do, 0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:35.200 and then she ended up doing it and was like 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:36.240 I was right to do it. 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:40.640 Said, well, she was never wrong, of course, But you know, 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:43.760 like even with her first Yorkie, Spike. Spike went to 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:46.560 work with her wherever she was. He traveled around, he 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:49.600 was part of the show, and I recommended that because 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:51.880 he wasn't feeling well, that maybe she would leave him 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:54.360 out of the show that week and he should stay home. 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:56.720 And like all of a sudden, you know, she had 0:03:56.760 --> 0:03:58.360 just looked at me and she said, don't tell me 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:01.160 what to do, just make my dog well enough to go. 0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:02.840 Like you didn't. 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.920 I wasn't messed with them exactly. Wow. Yeah, it's funny 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:09.320 we do, even if they're not famous. 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:12.440 You have everybody that's a bugineer and has owners that 0:04:12.480 --> 0:04:15.400 can be a little bit more demanding, And I think 0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:17.240 our job is to kind of look past at and 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.800 see like, Okay, where's this coming from. They just really, 0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:21.960 at the core of it, love their pet and want 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:22.960 their pet to be okay. 0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:26.479 I had a client who moved to New York after 0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:29.760 he retired. He had been a movie producer, so he 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:32.120 moved from California to New York and he lived in 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:35.360 new apartment with his two cats. And he paged me 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:38.080 on a Saturday night for an emergency and I called 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.719 him back immediately. I said, what's the problem. He said, 0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:43.799 my cat just scratched me with his nails. His nails 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:46.000 are too long. Come and cut them. I said, it's 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:48.640 ten o'clock and a Saturday night. I don't I don't 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:50.880 make house calls. If you truly had an emergency, it 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:52.800 would help you. But I'm not coming to cut your 0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:57.000 cat's nails. And he kind of hesitated and said, you know, 0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:00.560 in La, nobody would ever say no to me. So 0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:02.880 he was like being brought back into the real world. 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:05.720 Yeah, you're like not in New York, no means no. 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:06.640 And you're retired. 0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:08.760 Yeah, exactly, exactly. 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:11.560 Another thing that you talked about in the book that 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:14.480 I really loved and I have seen with my own 0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:17.520 experience as a veterinarian, is that no, there is no 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:20.280 such thing as a disabled pet, and so we have 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:25.120 a lot of patients that require amputations, or they lose 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:28.479 an eye, or they go deaf, and so I really 0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:31.200 loved how you put an emphasis on that. I think 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.839 I tell my owners all the time. We can learn 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:37.240 so much from our animals. I have had dogs going 0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:40.000 through chemo that are bouncing around and rolling in the grass. 0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.280 Dogs on three legs or cats on three legs that 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:45.400 would never know the difference. And if someone cut my 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:47.520 leg off, I probably would be in bed crying about 0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:48.200 it for six months. 0:05:48.440 --> 0:05:49.920 You're the rest of my life. Who knows. 0:05:49.960 --> 0:05:59.200 But they are just so resilient in that way. 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:01.799 What was your house like South Carolina? 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:02.120 Like? 0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:02.520 What was it? 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:04.800 I don't know the physically, what was the house like 0:06:04.800 --> 0:06:05.720 a couple of bedrooms? 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:11.400 Yeah. So I initially grew up in a ranch, three bedroom, 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:15.240 one bathroom house with a side room where I had 0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:19.440 my drums set and my guitar and I would just 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:23.520 spend hours in there, either playing drums. My grandfather tell 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:25.560 me how to play a train beat, and he'd play 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:26.120 along with me. 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:26.960 What's the train beat? 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:27.320 Can you. 0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:31.280 Oh like it got it gotta go out? I hear 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:33.120 the train coming. That's what I think when you do that. 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:35.440 But yeah, yeah, maybe just because we're trains in it 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:36.400 and I'm very slow. 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.240 Yeah no, no, no, I mean that that's the train 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:41.440 be that's the quint essential. And he taught me, you know, 0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:44.680 because it's all about the timing and like not letting 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:47.640 it drag, not letting it rush, just keeping it right there. 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:52.279 And I started on drums actually, so I just I 0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:55.400 spent a lot of time alone. But it was you know, 0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.880 next door was my grandparents' house, and I just hang 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:01.680 out with them when my dad was work and just 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:06.839 played guitar all day or drums to sing. 0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:11.520 We'll just call it the blues. Before your voice hits puberty? 0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:16.280 What do you I don't know, man, And how bluesy 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:17.720 can you be with a high pitched voice? 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:21.080 Well, I mean you'd have to ask, Like like Tina Turner, 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:25.840 I mean that was that was the and like Aretha Franklin, 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:30.960 like I liked soul singers. Sure, I feel like you know, 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:35.320 even like bb King after like sixty eight sixty nine 0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:37.560 Bibe was putting out like soul records. 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:39.480 But did it change for it at some point where 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:41.640 you were singing but your voice had hit puberty and 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:42.240 then after it. 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:45.160 Was I started singing when I was when I was thirteen, 0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:50.240 So I think that's why I made before that Nah, Wow, 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.920 I just played guitar. I was too bashful to sing. 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:55.720 Wow. 0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:59.000 Yeah, first time singing. Then then why in public? Why 0:07:59.160 --> 0:07:59.960 what got you there? 0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:03.920 Well, you know I had always kind of expressed my 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:09.080 you know, trauma or whatever it was, just through the guitar, 0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:14.000 and you know, when I was thirteen, the girl I 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.320 had a crush on died in a car accident, and 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:19.840 it really fucked my head up. And I had had 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:22.960 all these abandonment issues anyway, and they all just kind 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.080 of like came to a head, and I was really 0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:31.240 not able to, you know, find a way to comfort myself, 0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:33.760 you know. And we didn't have the distractions that we 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.840 have now, you know, so I wasn't on an iPad 0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:40.400 or anything to like fully escape and immerse myself in 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:44.280 something else. So that's when I decided to start writing 0:08:44.520 --> 0:08:47.640 and start singing, you know, just so I had two 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:55.520 more vessels to put my pain through. And I think 0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:59.360 the first time I sang publicly, I sang not my 0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:00.920 Cross to bear by the Oman Brothers. 0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:01.120 Man. 0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:02.960 Well, that's not an easy one. 0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.920 It's not an easy so you decided to just go Yeah, 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:08.440 I mean it's I'm a little teapot, right. 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:10.960 That's how I learned to swim, you know, just get 0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:12.280 thrown into the deep end. 0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:14.559 I spent a lot of time in therapy. I got 0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:19.040 some crazy abandonment issues myself. Dad left when I was 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:19.520 five or six. 0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:23.880 Mom died drugs in her forties, and so you know, 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.480 mine are to the point where. 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:27.920 They're built in, like they're cooked in. 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.280 But I can acknowledge them, and I can see them, 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:33.840 and I can see it affect and I can feel 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:34.440 it affected me. 0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:36.520 But I can ignowlre it. Right like forever, I didn't 0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:36.840 even know. 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:38.120 I gotta know why. 0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:41.120 I was just wanted to be by myself or. 0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:44.120 You know, everything told me. I loved them tomorrow about 0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:46.319 my wife a few years ago. But I was just 0:09:46.360 --> 0:09:47.400 always like, this is who I am, This is who 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:49.480 I am, this swam But that's that was like what 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:50.360 mine were rooted in. 0:09:50.600 --> 0:09:53.680 What was yours a parent thing? Was yours a home 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:54.240 type thing? 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:57.000 Yeah, my mom left when I was very young, and 0:09:57.040 --> 0:10:01.600 that was really hard for me, and that was it's 0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:03.400 still something that I really struggle with. 0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:06.400 You know, is she alive now, she's still alive. 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:10.080 Her health's not very good, but we you know, we've 0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:12.760 packed things up and we're we're a lot closer now. 0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:15.000 You know that you're a better man than I am. 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:16.720 Like my real dad's still alive. I don't talk to him. 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:18.960 Yeah, I mean it's it's challenging. 0:10:19.440 --> 0:10:21.320 You know, how old were you? 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:25.000 I was like five, so like that age is really 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:28.440 really tough because you know, I'd go to school every day, 0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:32.040 I'd get sent home from kindergarten every day because I'd 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.120 cry so hard that i'd throw up. And this was 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:37.439 a daily thing because you don't know where her mother's at. 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:42.079 It's you know, just as a as a mammal, a living, 0:10:42.120 --> 0:10:46.920 breathing mammal, You're just instinctively you're gonna need your mother's 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.800 affection and love and attention. And I didn't have it. 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:53.360 And I have my grandmother, who was, you know, really 0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:53.960 like my mother. 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:56.480 My grandma adopted me. We might be the same person. Yeah, 0:10:56.520 --> 0:10:59.200 we're except for that smoothie. That's too much I need again, 0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:02.400 I need lots of show. Yeah. So your grandma was 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:04.280 very instrumental and your your upbringing, huh. 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:09.040 And she was, you know, just a really sassy German 0:11:09.080 --> 0:11:13.559 woman and just very loving, very affectionate. And it almost, 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:17.200 you know, kind of balanced it out. How affectionate she was, 0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:22.120 you know, made up for the fact that my mother 0:11:22.200 --> 0:11:25.080 had left. But you know, I still I love my 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:26.880 mother and I try to take care of her the 0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:50.640 best I can. 0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:54.760 Cast up little food for yourself. 0:11:56.240 --> 0:12:00.959 Life always pretty, but it's pretty beautiful that for a 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:01.880 little mouth. 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:10.679 Said, cut your kicking with full with Amy Brown. 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:14.360 First, I want to go over what real alcohols you 0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:16.920 can have or the ones you may want to stay 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:20.760 away from again if you're trying to avoid the anxiety. Apparently, 0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:25.079 dark liquors like whiskey, prosecco, champagne, and red wine are 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:29.080 the worst. They have chemicals that worsen hangovers and anxiety. 0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:33.240 Sugary cocktails are also a no go, which after I 0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:36.240 read this, I was like, oh, okay, my drinks the 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:38.880 other night on my date YEP had prosecco mixed in 0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:43.680 a sugary concoction, So damn that was likely my problem. 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:46.440 The high sugar, which leads to a sugar spike and 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:49.960 then a sugar crash, which then will increase my anxiety, 0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:53.320 my irritability. And then also I had no idea about this, 0:12:53.480 --> 0:12:57.480 but the bubbles in prosecco and champagne they speed up 0:12:57.520 --> 0:13:01.000 the absorption of alcohol in our bloodstream, which lead to 0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:04.440 a quicker and more intense effect. So at the time, 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.320 it's feeling really good and it's all enjoyable and you're like, oh, 0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:09.920 I feel great, this is fun, which might lead you 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:15.080 to order more, and then the after effects of that anxiety, 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.280 which I was also surprised to see red wine on 0:13:18.320 --> 0:13:21.400 the worst list. I mean, the whiskey, the sugary drinks, 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:24.560 I get that was easy for me to understand, but 0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:26.440 red wine was a little confusing. But I guess it's 0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:29.400 a sugar and chemical thing. And I am bummed to 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:32.120 see prosecco on there. And keep that in mind though, 0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:35.400 with New Year's Eve coming up, prosecco, champagne, a lot 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.040 of that is served, and maybe you want to avoid 0:13:38.080 --> 0:13:39.720 that this time of year and see if you feel 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:42.560 better the next morning. Now, as for the best drinks 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:46.200 to have to decrease your anxiety, the article said to 0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:51.240 stick to clear liquors like vodka, gin, or tequila with soap. 0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:56.959 Tequila kayala is a little. 0:13:59.440 --> 0:13:59.960 What are you all? 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:02.559 I was sitting back here and I was like, man, 0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:04.800 I can't wait to hit this. When she says tequila, okay, 0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:05.920 that's scuba. 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.719 Steve, I had no idea he was even listening to this. 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:11.880 He's back in his glass production room. 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:14.720 Tequila. 0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:17.800 You can have vodka, gin or tequila with soda, water 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:22.720 or fresh citrus. Those are easier on your system. And 0:14:22.760 --> 0:14:26.760 then again, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate, don't forget water between drinks. 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:29.280 It can make a huge difference. And we know this. 0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:30.520 I know this. 0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:33.040 We don't always do it, but just make a deal 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:38.160 with yourself, make smarter choices, and then you'll have less anxiety. Now, 0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:41.640 Ray speaking of the glass room where Scuba works. He 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:43.760 is one of our producers on the Bobby Bone Show, 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:46.160 and he was actually just making fun of me this 0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:48.600 morning for being sold that I can't even handle one drink. 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:52.560 Ray likes to drink, but mostly I would say, now 0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:58.160 it's during brunch on Saturdays. That's his time to go out. 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:00.600 And he's the one that got me on on Booze 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.680 a while back, which is a supplement that helps you 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.600 feel better after drinking. And I will say it has 0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:09.520 helped me, but sometimes I run out or other times 0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:13.080 I just forget to take it. And last weekend, you know, 0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:15.040 I had those drinks, but I was out of unboozed. 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:17.280 So I do need to order more. And I will 0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:21.160 shout out Ray because he has a code sisin twenty three. 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:23.640 So I think his handle on Instagram is like sisin 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:27.360 Ray Mundo, but sisin is like for season, but s 0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:30.040 z N twenty three, and that'll get you a discount 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:32.200 if you're curious about Unbooze, and I'll link it in 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.160 the show notes. But in addition to taking something like 0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:38.480 Unbooze that may help you out. Another option might be 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:40.520 non Alcoholic Spirits. 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:41.040 Now. 0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:43.440 I came across that brand recently, like I told you, 0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:47.640 thanks to that Instagram ad, and what I ordered specifically 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:51.960 was from Little Saints. It's a whole non alcoholic brand, 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:54.160 so there's nothing confusing about it. You don't go to 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:56.240 the website and you're like, wait, which one's the alcohol, 0:15:56.240 --> 0:15:58.480 which one's not, because they all look like alcohol but 0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:04.320 nothing is. And I was most intrigued by their drink 0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:07.240 that mimics tequila. I thought it would come in handy 0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.240 for when I want a margarita something like that. When 0:16:10.280 --> 0:16:12.040 I got the bottle and the mail, I saw that 0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:14.720 the company is also founded by a woman, which I love. 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:20.200 And my overall review is four point five out of five. 0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:23.480 I really liked it so much so that, Yeah, I 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:25.680 may order more stuff from the site, Like I was 0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:29.200 saying to Eddie, maybe I'll order some gifts for people. 0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:29.760 I know. 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:32.160 There's a lot of na brands out there. This is 0:16:32.200 --> 0:16:35.400 just the only one that i've tried and really enjoyed 0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:38.600 so far. And this one is infused with lines Made, 0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:42.800 which is a functional mushroom. It's an adaptogen. It's good 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:46.000 for brain health, mood support, gut health, and a lot 0:16:46.000 --> 0:16:48.760 of other things. I've always loved lines Made, so to 0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:52.600 have it in my mocktail it's like a bonus. I 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:55.760 don't know if it's just me or if y'all are 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:59.800 also getting more non alcoholic type ads, but I do 0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:05.320 think that drinking is on the decline drinking alcohol. People 0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:09.000 are drinking less, which I guess is good and probably 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:12.280 why some brands have increased marketing because they want to 0:17:12.320 --> 0:17:14.720 capitalize on the fact that people are drinking less, or 0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:17.480 they are curious about drinking less. 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:18.920 And speaking of. 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:21.119 Curiosity, I decided to do a little research because I 0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:23.359 was like, Okay, what are the statistics on this, like, 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:26.919 is drinking actually going down? And I found that, on average, 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:31.760 this is from NC Solutions, Americans are drinking three drinks 0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:36.080 per week and that's down from four to five drinks 0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:40.240 in twenty twenty three. Millennials in particular are drinking less, 0:17:40.640 --> 0:17:43.600 like forty percent less this year than last year, with 0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:48.240 an average of three drinks per week. Which is crazy 0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:51.320 to think about if we were going from five drinks 0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:54.960 to three and with dry January coming up next month 0:17:55.480 --> 0:17:59.080 might be the highest year of participation yet because this 0:17:59.200 --> 0:18:03.080 last January was up ten percent from the year before, 0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:05.400 So it's just in one year and ten percent jump. 0:18:05.520 --> 0:18:07.879 That is a lot of people. And the top of 0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:11.080 reasons Americans are drinking less include while we want to 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:13.600 improve our physical health, we want to save money. 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:14.720 Although I will say. 0:18:14.600 --> 0:18:17.960 The non alcoholic drinks they might be more expensive than 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:21.639 the alcohol ones, so maybe they're saving money and just 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:25.760 not drinking anything, not even the fake version. And overall, 0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:28.520 we just want to make lifestyle changes. 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:31.080 We're gonna do it live. 0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:38.440 We are the one, two three sore losers. What up, everybody? 0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:40.560 I am lunchbox. I know the most about sports, so 0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:44.119 I'll give you the sports facts, my sports opinions, because 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:46.680 I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'all. 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:49.040 It's Sison. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male. 0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:51.280 I live on the north side of Nashville with Bayser, 0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:51.720 my wife. 0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:52.560 We do have a farm. 0:18:52.560 --> 0:18:56.040 It's beautiful, a lot of acreage, no animals, a lot 0:18:56.040 --> 0:19:01.280 of crops, hopefully soon corn pumpkins. I believe maybe a 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:07.600 little fescue to be determined over to you, coach, And. 0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:10.800 Here's a clip from this week's episode of The Sore Losers. 0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:14.960 My in laws come in and they act like my 0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:20.200 house is a pile of shit. They act like we 0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:24.639 can't take care of ourselves. They start up, They're like, 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:26.840 my father's like, hey, where is that curtain rod that 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:29.920 your your wife once hung up? I'm like what, She's 0:19:29.960 --> 0:19:31.640 never mentioned a curtain rod in her life to me. 0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:33.760 All the stuff you didn't do. 0:19:34.320 --> 0:19:38.080 I'm like, what curtain There's no curtain rod and he goes, yeah, 0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:39.600 she said she gave me a to do list and 0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:41.040 one of them was hanging this curtain rod. 0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:44.520 I coach, you haven't done it for six months. 0:19:45.359 --> 0:19:48.240 I have never been told about a curtain rod anywhere. 0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:51.400 And I'm like what. And he's like, yeah, she told 0:19:51.400 --> 0:19:53.400 me that you guys want to hang a curtain rod 0:19:53.440 --> 0:19:57.320 in the kid's bedroom. I'm like, we do. So he 0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.280 goes down and hang. He hangs the damn curtain in 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:03.159 the kid's bedroom and I'm like, what the hell you 0:20:03.200 --> 0:20:06.400 want to just take my man card to then? Oh, 0:20:06.680 --> 0:20:09.560 then we bought a mirror that she bought a mirror 0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:13.280 in an estate sale, and she I was like, well, 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:14.520 where do you want to hang it? I don't know. 0:20:14.560 --> 0:20:17.120 I do notice she's stuck in the closet. Never said 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:21.240 anything else about it. Her parents are there and her 0:20:21.240 --> 0:20:22.600 father and La was like, now, so where is this 0:20:22.600 --> 0:20:25.760 mirror going. And I'm like, I don't know, and he goes, no, no, 0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:27.399 she said she wanted it in the kitchen right And 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:30.159 I'm like, no, she has not mentioned anything about a 0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:32.760 damn mirror to me since we you know, like we 0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:34.280 bought the mirror we put in the closet and she 0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:36.439 said she was gonna think about it. He's like, no, 0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:38.679 she said, she wants it hung up right here. So 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:40.600
