1
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: And I invited you here, thought I made myself perfectly clear.

2
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 1: When you're a guest to my home, you gotta come

3
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: to me empty. And I said, no guests, Your presences

4
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: presents enough. I already had too much stuff, So how

5
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: do you dare to surbey me?

6
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 2: Welcome to? I said no gifts. I'm bridgerd Wineinger. And look,

7
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: we're in a whole new year. It's twenty twenty one,

8
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 2: and truly, who knows what'll happen next? No one can say.

9
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: For who knows it all happen to me? Who knows

10
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 2: it all happen to this podcast? Maybe it'll become a

11
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: podcast about motorcycles. There's really no telling at this point.

12
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 2: But that doesn't really matter right now. Right now, we

13
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: need to focus on the guests. The first guest of

14
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,199
Speaker 2: the brand new year, Paul Sheer, Welcome to. I said

15
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 2: no gifts.

16
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 3: I am so excited to be here. And I know

17
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 3: you said no gifts, but I couldn't help myself. I

18
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 3: couldn't help but get you something, just a little something, Paul,

19
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 3: what's going on? Not much? You know, this new year,

20
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 3: Still same pandemic, you know, loving my house, really getting

21
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 3: familiar with my closet desk space. I will tell you

22
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 3: this much, and I will share this with you. I

23
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 3: haven't really talked about this publicly, but I have been

24
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 3: kicked out of our home office.

25
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: My wife were off to a devastating start.

26
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 3: My wife very slowly was like, this is a shared space,

27
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 3: and bit by bit, drawers were being taken over. Time

28
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 3: in the office was being extended. And now I am

29
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 3: sequestered in the guest bedroom. Oh you're kidding me, Yeah,

30
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 3: the guest bedroom. And by the way, that sounds like,

31
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 3: oh wow, that well, you should be so lucky. I

32
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 3: get it. But I'm also in that room all the time,

33
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: and it is that's where I'm at. I'm so I

34
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 3: spend my time mainly taking care of my children, right

35
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 3: and sharing my office with a king sized bed because

36
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 3: we decided we wanted to make our guests as comfortable

37
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 3: as possible, which is something that I think you would appreciate.

38
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 2: Of course, if we don't respect the guests, we don't

39
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 2: respect ourselves.

40
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: But it's I'm basically constantly trying to maneuver my body

41
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,080
Speaker 3: around a bed. It is, and I'm like, it's almost

42
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: like I've set up shop in a hostel. I'm like,

43
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 3: it doesn't really, It's like my we work is a hostel. No.

44
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 2: I The guest bedroom, to me is an interesting part

45
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 2: of the house. We just moved into new place. We

46
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 2: have a guest bedroom. You want it to be comfortable,

47
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 2: but also you don't ultimately don't care. So the guest

48
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 2: bedroom is an interesting second space that the It's a

49
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 2: hard thing for me. The line to walk is like,

50
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 2: I want it to be comfortable, but I also don't

51
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 2: want it to be better than the room that I

52
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: stay in. Mainly I need the guests to realize that

53
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 2: I am still the king of the castle.

54
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 3: Well, look, I can't agree with you more. I mean, honestly,

55
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 3: I have issues with unused spaces. I grew up in

56
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 3: a house with a lot of unused spaces. We had

57
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 3: a beautiful, beautiful, fancy dining room, living room situation. They

58
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 3: had a nice carpet in it growing up. And by

59
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 3: the way, not that the carpet is the sign of

60
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 3: you know, wall to wall carpet, but back in the

61
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: eighties it was kind of cool. We had a nice

62
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 3: big table in there, and it was where we put

63
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 3: our Christmas tree at Christmas time, and it was you know,

64
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 3: We made sure we had to dust all the furniture.

65
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 3: Everything was nice. We never sat in that room. We

66
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 3: sat in the small room off to the right hand

67
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 3: side of that that was tiny and looking over we

68
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 3: basically are looking over at a better room, and that

69
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 3: better room is like laughing at us, like look at us,

70
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 3: look at what you don't have, and you have it.

71
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 3: And you know, for me, a guest bedroom is You're right.

72
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 3: I think a guest bedroom needs to be functional, but

73
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 3: not necessarily a piece of the house because how often

74
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 3: are you using If you take up percentage wise, five

75
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 3: ten percent of the year, is that guest bedroom is

76
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 3: being used?

77
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,119
Speaker 2: I'd say three percent, zero percent. If I'm lucky.

78
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 3: I think we can make something out of that. We

79
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: could figure out something there. But my wife got it

80
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 3: into her head. My lovely wife, June Dian rayphel who

81
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 3: you know from Mi Criky and also Black Monday. She's great.

82
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 3: I love her. We had an office up here. The

83
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: guest bedroom was in office. I loved it. It was beautiful,

84
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 3: light came in, it was amazing. And when the pandemic hitch,

85
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 3: She's like, we need to turn that office into a

86
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 3: guest bedroom. And I said but why are we are

87
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,359
Speaker 3: simply not gonna have anyone over. That's the whole thing is.

88
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 3: We can't have.

89
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 2: Another backwards version of what everyone else is done. Right now,

90
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: most guest bedrooms are either zoom middle schools or makeshift

91
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 2: pilates studios.

92
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 3: And she's like, we need to do it, and I said, okay,

93
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,039
Speaker 3: So we cleared out the office and we put a

94
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 3: giant king size bad because June was like, we need

95
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 3: to get king sized because it's comfortable. And then this

96
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 3: makes it for people like, well, wait, we're doing a

97
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 3: king we're doing a king size. If I'm doing a

98
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: guest bedroom, I'm doing a pull out couch in a

99
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 3: place to put a couple of shirts.

100
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 2: You're lucky if there's a cot, a cot and a

101
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 2: string to turn on the light bulb.

102
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. So anyway, now this whole thing, this whole

103
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 3: decoration of this room, and oh isn't it beautiful? It

104
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 3: turned out so great. Yeah, and now guess what, I

105
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 3: have no place to go, and now I'm I am

106
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 3: basically like hunched over like dresser drawers and you know,

107
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 3: like getting chairs from other rooms. So yeah, that's that's

108
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 3: how my pandemic is. So I, and I also know

109
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 3: that there's no we work in my future. I used

110
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 3: to be at a shared working space out here, which

111
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 3: is amazing, but that's not coming back.

112
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: That's not happening.

113
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 3: Yeah. So anyway, that's where I am. I'm making do

114
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 3: and I love it all, and I love my wife

115
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 3: and I love our guest room, but I just wish

116
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 3: I had a little bit. I basically have now taken

117
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 3: to putting a divider in my guest room so I

118
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 3: look like I'm in, Like I look like the cover

119
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 3: of that New York magazine that came out, or New

120
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 3: York magazine that just came out where the agent to

121
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 3: mine drew where it's just like somebody like just from

122
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 3: the waste up looking good and everything else is a cow.

123
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 3: So anyway, sorry, that was a very long winded tangent

124
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 3: about where I'm at.

125
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, this guest bedroom is going to destroy

126
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 2: your marriage anyone since pandemic has happened in this guest

127
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: bedroom has become kind of the jewel of your home.

128
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 2: Has anyone stayed in it? No, of course not. We're smart,

129
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 2: we don't have people over. But I don't understand the

130
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 2: logic behind this sudden I think. I think it is

131
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 2: simply the panic of pandemic. Right, we got to do

132
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 2: stuff and then all of a sudden, like now, if

133
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 2: it was building a gym.

134
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 3: In the house, that makes sense to me, Yeah, you know,

135
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 3: let's do that. But like this was I think early on,

136
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 3: and it was a thought process that we needed to

137
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: chase down because all we need to do is not

138
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 3: bring the bed in, right, really right, just keep it.

139
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 3: We could call the minute pandemics over, get the bead

140
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 3: people on the phone, all right, bring it, but yeah,

141
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: we didn't do that. I think there's also like a

142
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 3: feeling of it. And this is like why I like Legos.

143
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 3: I find Legos to be a very a de stressor

144
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 3: for me because there's like a beginning, middle, and an

145
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 3: end to Legos. I can do something with my hands.

146
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 3: I don't smoke, but I can watch TV. I can

147
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 3: and I'm I'm doing something and someone's telling me what

148
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 3: to do, and at the end of it, it's done.

149
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 3: And I think there was an idea like, well, we

150
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 3: want to get that guest bedroom done. We're home now,

151
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 3: let's get the guest bedroom done. And so we got

152
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 3: it done, but at what cost? At what cost?

153
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 2: Well, at your costs. You're now you're in an uncomfortable

154
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 2: spot podcasting.

155
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 3: Well, you know, I mean, Junia told me like, we're

156
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 3: going to share this office, and again edged out, edged.

157
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 2: Have you taken a nap in the guest bedroom? I

158
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 2: feel like that's a decent napping space.

159
00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 3: Well, I will tell you this. We have both slept

160
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 3: in the guest bedroom bed. And I'll tell you a

161
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 3: couple of reasons why. We have a four year old

162
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 3: and a six year old and during this pandemic. Oddly,

163
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 3: and I've read this a few times in like in

164
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: you know, psychology readings, or at least parts of it

165
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 3: that were supplanted into a larger article that like kids

166
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 3: were looking for safety, so they often crawl into their parents'

167
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,199
Speaker 3: bed during this pandemic. That hasn't been the case before

168
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 3: the pandemic, but they definitely do it a little bit

169
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 3: more now. And one of my kids is a great sleeper.

170
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 3: I love like cut on with him. The other one

171
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 3: kicks and hits and splays, and June kicks and hits

172
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 3: and splays too. So sometimes I'll look at the makeup

173
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 3: of the bed and I'll be like, you know what,

174
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 3: it's a guest bedroom night, sneak.

175
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 2: I love that a guest bedroom night is the most

176
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: exotic vacation any of us can go on.

177
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 3: Right now, we've had a few moments where we've both

178
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 3: thought we've had COVID, which was just sure post nasal drip.

179
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 3: And that has also been while I'm quarantining now in

180
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 3: the guest bedroom bed. So yeah, there has been guest

181
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 3: bedroom bed moments. So that has been nice. And I

182
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 3: will say I appreciate the king size, nice mattress in

183
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 3: there because it is it is a comfortable sleep. It's

184
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 3: not like sleeping on the couch. Quite a comfortable stay.

185
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 2: Oh well, maybe it's it was a decent maybe worked

186
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 2: for you, Maybe it worked out. What sort of legos

187
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 2: do you make? I have to I who was I

188
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 2: talking to recently? Someone about legos? And I cannot put

189
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 2: together a Lego set?

190
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 3: Oh, yes you can.

191
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 2: I don't.

192
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 3: I don't have the spatial skills. Oh you do, because

193
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,439
Speaker 3: it just tells you what to do. You got to

194
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 3: take it one step by the time. Like look, if

195
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 3: you gave me a bag of legos and said, build

196
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 3: build me a castle like that. Nope. But it's like

197
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 3: it's like legos are the building equivalent of a coloring book.

198
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 2: I can barely color. Now we're we're just listing things

199
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 2: I'm not good at.

200
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 3: You. You are given everything, and now you just make

201
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 3: a you don't need. By the way, a coloring book

202
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 3: is actually more choices legos. There's no choices. This brick

203
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,960
Speaker 3: goes over here, and it's and for me in my

204
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 3: brain where I'm very much like wanting to keep things

205
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 3: in order and have a plan, it allows me to

206
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 3: like manifest all the things that I do in unhealthy

207
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 3: ways in a very healthy way. I got to separate

208
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 3: all my bricks. I put it all down, I build

209
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 3: it out, and then you can build really fun stuff

210
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 3: and you can go goofy or you can be like

211
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 3: during this pandemic, I built like the Walt Disney Castle,

212
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 3: which was a fun build I built.

213
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 2: Ut Now was that like a bit like how big

214
00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 2: is the Walt Disney The Walt Disney Castle, I.

215
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 3: Would say is probably from like foot to knee, you know,

216
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 3: it's like that, you know, like yeah, like that kind

217
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 3: of a adult adult foot to me. And I know

218
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 3: that that's probably not right for a lot of people

219
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:39,839
Speaker 3: who are different heights. But I'm just gonna say you

220
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 3: get roughly get the idea right toes. But there are

221
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 3: like some fun ones and I also built like I

222
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 3: love this, Like there's like a town Square series, so

223
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 3: there's like a movie theater and there's a barber shop

224
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 3: in a pool hall. So you like to build those.

225
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 3: And right now I have a haunted mansion over here

226
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 3: that I haven't built, but I really like it. And

227
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 3: but it is it's fun. I got into puzzles after that.

228
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: It's just something to do with their hands that make you,

229
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: that makes you feel good. And I don't. I'm not

230
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 3: one of those freaks. I'm not going to display it.

231
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 3: I'm not like, now, let me put up in my

232
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 3: house and she'll.

233
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 2: Be, yeah, that's a bridge way too far.

234
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 3: No, No, I want to build it, and then I

235
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,559
Speaker 3: give it to my four year old son, who, within

236
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 3: I would say, seven to fifteen minutes, totally destroys it,

237
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,720
Speaker 3: either dropping it, accidentally kicking a ball through it. So

238
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 3: there is something so beautiful about taking a couple of

239
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 3: weeks to build something so complex and then in moments

240
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 3: watching it just be destroyed. Yes, and I let's see

241
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 3: you like let go of some bigger things. I think

242
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 3: it's I think Legos. By the way, this is my book.

243
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,719
Speaker 3: Legos is a metaphor for life. And yeah, so there

244
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 3: is something like really I've gotten to be like so

245
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 3: at peace with watching. Like the first thing that we

246
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 3: ever built during quarantine was like a big Harry Potter

247
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 3: Hogwarts Hall because my son Harry Catter and it was

248
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 3: a very extensive build and especially working with a six

249
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 3: year old that it took a long long time because

250
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 3: we have to do it together and all in his

251
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 3: time and on his attention level. And with the minute

252
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 3: we brought it outside to show his friend, he dropped

253
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 3: it and it just exploded on the ground and exploded

254
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 3: on the ground in such a way that was like,

255
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 3: oh wow, there's nothing salvageable about this. Just get the

256
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 3: broom out and you know, let's put it in another

257
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: bag and then we'll never touch these pieces ever again.

258
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 2: I think the destruction of puzzles and legos is absolutely fine.

259
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 2: My friend Leela Stron, she made a wonderful joke which

260
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 2: is like the last piece of the puzzle. You go

261
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 2: from it being a fun game to a picture you

262
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 2: no longer care about. Yeah, I think that that makes

263
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 2: perfect sense. It's I love very enjoyable in the time,

264
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 2: and then it's nothing. I don't think it around anymore.

265
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 3: I get it out of here, and it's it's it's

266
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 3: it's like the equivalent of like I would imagine what

267
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 3: a one night stand is. It's sort of like I

268
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 3: don't ever need to see you again, but this is

269
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 3: a great experience while it happened.

270
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, well you know you mentioned this right off

271
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 2: the bat on the podcast that you had maybe there

272
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 2: was a gift in play here, and obviously this podcast

273
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 2: is called I said no gifts. Everyone knows that, you

274
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 2: know that you agreed to be on the podcast.

275
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I know, but I couldn't help myself.

276
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of weeks ago you agreed to be

277
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 2: on this. And then a little while later a package arrived.

278
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: And you know, we're all getting packages during the pandemic.

279
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 2: We're not out shopping, we're not out edit store, so

280
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: the packages are arriving frequently. It's something that I've ordered.

281
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 2: But with this podcast, now I've had my boyfriend. He'll

282
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: I'll have him inspect the package before I open it

283
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 2: to see if it's something I ordered or if it's

284
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 2: something else. And he said, oh, this is from Paul's Sheer.

285
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 2: So apparently you've sent me something I did. I did,

286
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 2: I did here it's in this bag and it says love, honor, cherish.

287
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 2: I don't know, do interesting? I mean, do you want

288
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 2: me to open this on my podcast?

289
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 3: I would? I would, by the way. I'm surprised at

290
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 3: this packaging. So okay, well yeah, now I'm hoping it

291
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,599
Speaker 3: is definitely from me. Let's see. Oh yeah, open it.

292
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: Let's step in here, let's get into this. Okay, so

293
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 2: here's the package, but I haven't. I'm about to see

294
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,199
Speaker 2: what's inside. My boyfriend's knowing what this is, and we're

295
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 2: just gonna open this up. It looks like, oh my god,

296
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 2: this is actually an incredible gift for me. It's a

297
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: set of funnels. And I have had so many things

298
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 2: I've needed to funnel into jarsys and I have not

299
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 2: purchased any recently. We moved and I just like, you

300
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 2: move into a new space and you're like, oh, I

301
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 2: need this many things and you just forget to buy Wait,

302
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 2: why did you buy me funnels?

303
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 3: Because of that reason, we all need funnels, we do,

304
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 3: we do need them. Like I realized that I was

305
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 3: like oftentimes I'm trying to get things from one container

306
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 3: to the next, and I'm like and I'm like, and

307
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 3: then it's so hard. I'm like, Oh, only if I

308
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 3: only had a funnel. And I said it as if

309
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 3: I was in some sort of world where all I

310
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 3: needed where if like it was impossible for me to

311
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 3: pick up my phone and hit one button and then

312
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 3: it'd be delivered to me within hour's And the minute

313
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 3: I got those funnels, I'm gonna tell you it was

314
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 3: life changing. Now I have a funnel. Whenever I'm doing

315
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 3: something that requires a funnel, I got a funnel. And look,

316
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 3: and I didn't know if you had funnels, you can

317
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 3: go on many different levels with the funnels. I what

318
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 3: I've done is I use one of those funnels to

319
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 3: make my own hand sanitizer, because I got one point. Well,

320
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 3: at one point there was like a shortage of like

321
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 3: personalized hand sanitizer, so it was just like these giant jugs.

322
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 3: So what I did was I went on Amazon and

323
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 3: I bought small squeeze bottles, empty squeeze bottles, and then

324
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 3: what I do now is I put the funnel in

325
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 3: the small squeeze bottle and then I have something I

326
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 3: put it on my dog leash. So when I'm out

327
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 3: there and I, you know whatever, I hit something that

328
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 3: I need to clean up on. Done the funnel, the

329
00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 3: funnel stay of the day. Now, if I didn't have

330
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 3: that funnel, I'm like, googlegal, it's all over the counter.

331
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 3: Now I'm paper toweling it up and I'm like, ah,

332
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 3: I wasted this and this is a mess, and my

333
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 3: day has gone on much longer than I needed to.

334
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like the paper towel shortage would have

335
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 2: been curtailed completely if everyone had had funnels.

336
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely.

337
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 2: The amount of paper towels I'm using is ridiculous because

338
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 2: but the problem is, once I'm done cleaning up the

339
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 2: mess I've made, I forget I need the funnel. Until

340
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 2: the next time I need the funnel.

341
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 3: I have funnel amnesia. Yeah, so this is why I

342
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 3: never buy one. Well, that's exactly. You have to kind

343
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 3: of work in the moment. That is something that I've

344
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 3: really become accomplished at as a shopper, an online shopper,

345
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 3: Like I think of it and I go and I

346
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 3: build it. And so what I'll do is oftentimes I'll

347
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 3: just check out at the end of the day. I'll

348
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 3: check out at the end, you know, I'll kind of

349
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 3: like keep a little running, so, you know, unless unless

350
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 3: there's something that I need it right away, I got

351
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 3: to take something else. I as as somebody who's wiping

352
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 3: up a lot of stuff. I am a big fan

353
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 3: of these bar towels that are absolutely amazing. And they

354
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 3: are a towel, yes, they're a little bit more echo lot,

355
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 3: you know, because you just throw them in the wash

356
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:09,239
Speaker 3: and they are so absorbent and you can and uh

357
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 3: and they're just great like you do.

358
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: It's like to clean up bars. Yeah yes, right, like

359
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 2: a bartender to wipe down the bar bark.

360
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, okay exactly. And they are they're great. They're

361
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 3: just like and they're cheap. It's like fifteen bucks and

362
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,719
Speaker 3: get twenty four of them. They're called like Utopia towels,

363
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 3: kitchen bar mops, and they're just like they're terry cloth towels.

364
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 3: They're not cute.

365
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 2: Well I don't want anything to do with a towel

366
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 2: that isn't cute, but they get the job done.

367
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 3: No.

368
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 2: I did something similar. I bought like a set of

369
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 2: probably one hundred microfiber towels.

370
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,360
Speaker 3: I did the same thing, and.

371
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 2: Now there's stuffed in a drawer somewhere. But anytime I

372
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 2: need to wipe something up, I just grab one out.

373
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 2: I don't care about them, they don't need to look good,

374
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 2: and I can wipe things down.

375
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 3: Wow, so you're using that micro see. I only use

376
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 3: it for like screens, and that's what I initially bought

377
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 3: it for. But I bought way too many, so I thought,

378
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 3: why not just you? Why not destroy these and wiped

379
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 3: down the kitchen counters this sort of thing. Okay, that's

380
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 3: really good because what I am often doing is when

381
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 3: I buy an excess of that sort of stuff, I

382
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 3: will then place it in every room of the house. Okay,

383
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 3: here's one in my desk drawer, here's one in my

384
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 3: night side table, here's one in the bathroom. It's like,

385
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 3: so then it's sort of like where it's not where

386
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 3: is that towel? It's like, Oh, that towel is everywhere.

387
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 3: The entire house is a towel. Yeah, and the only

388
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 3: thing you can count on in your house. Yes, I'm like,

389
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 3: that is what I need and I'm into it.

390
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 2: Are there any other big purchases you've made since the

391
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 2: pandemic began? I bought a cheese slicer. Yeah, absolutely, especially

392
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 2: a late night purchase. And I'm not talking about like

393
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 2: about Dourrito's at midnight. I'm saying like, I will automatically go,

394
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 2: you know what, I need a goddamn office chair, and

395
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 2: or you know, like I remember that the office chair

396
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 2: purchase was fully conceived and executed all while I was

397
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 2: waiting in my car for.

398
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 3: A COVID test. I was because I was like, you

399
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 3: know what, my back is hurting. I'm like, come sitting

400
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 3: in the stupid ass chair. It doesn't feel good. And

401
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 3: I was like, I need to get an office chair.

402
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, you don't get an office chair. Shre

403
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 3: like why? And then I have this whole conversation with myself.

404
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,679
Speaker 3: I'm like why not, Like well, it's expensive, I'm like,

405
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 3: but you use it every day. It's the reason why

406
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 3: I didn't buy. I didn't buy a new computer. I

407
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 3: bought a computer during the pandemic as well. I haven't

408
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 3: bought a new computer. And a person that we both know,

409
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 3: Jordan Kahn, co creator of Black Monday, he also has

410
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 3: this old.

411
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 2: His computer is a thousand years old.

412
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 3: It's so heavy, it's so whatever. And I go Jordan.

413
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 3: Why we both have lamented, like why haven't you bought

414
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 3: a new computer. It's like, well, I know they're going

415
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 3: to come out with a new one, and I don't

416
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 3: want to get it, and I'm like, I'm the same,

417
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 3: and then we both realize something, this is what we

418
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 3: make our market, like, this is a major like of

419
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 3: anything that I use in my life. The computer is

420
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 3: is that thing. I use it every day and and

421
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 3: I think I'm still in the mentality where when I

422
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 3: bought a computer as a younger person in college, I

423
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 3: was like, holy shit, I spent three thousand dollars on

424
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 3: a computer, you know. And by the way, I'm not

425
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,959
Speaker 3: saying that computers are cheap, but if you put it

426
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 3: against how much I use it, this thing is costing

427
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,479
Speaker 3: me like a penny a day. I don't. I don't.

428
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 3: I don't think about it like I don't. I don't

429
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 3: think twice when I get like a coffee being coffee,

430
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 3: I'm not like, oh, that's four bucks. I'm like, I

431
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 3: have more debate. I'm wrestling over the one thing that

432
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 3: I need. It literally is falling apart. Jordan's is heavy.

433
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 3: I've never felt the Mac that's heavy. I think this

434
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,439
Speaker 3: is like twelve years old. Yeah, and mine was five.

435
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 2: I was eight. I am the same way where like

436
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 2: I mean, I will say I bought a new computer

437
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:42,120
Speaker 2: and it immediately was essentially operating the same speed as

438
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,159
Speaker 2: my old computer and getting way hotter. I think I

439
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 2: made some sort of terrible mistake. I feel like someone's

440
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 2: trying to teach me a lesson here.

441
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 3: You know what I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you this,

442
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 3: don't don't give up on it. I believe that one

443
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 3: of the big issues with with this whole thing, like

444
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 3: the this new computer I we're on the same one,

445
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 3: is that there's an update that has happened that is

446
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 3: going to make it cool down again.

447
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 2: Please, because mine is truly becoming like a hot plate.

448
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, mine mine. You know, I got this great little

449
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,360
Speaker 3: uh it's almost looks Origami esque. It's like you pull

450
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 3: it out and it's like it holds your computer up.

451
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 3: And I find that that is a great uh. It's

452
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 3: a computer stand, but it's so it takes a it's

453
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 3: a I I feel like it's called it the butterfly

454
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: or something. It's it's a great little stand. And I

455
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 3: wish I could tell you, but but uh, but anyway

456
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 3: that has helped a great deal, just so it's not

457
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 3: just on a on a hard surface. But of course

458
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 3: I was holding off because this new MacBook has like

459
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 3: an arm processor and that comes out soon, and I

460
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 3: should I wait? Should I wait? And I wait? And

461
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 3: you know what I said to myself, like this chair,

462
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 3: it's okay, you deserve it. And and I can't tell you,

463
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 3: like how what a difference that chair in the computers made?

464
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:55,360
Speaker 3: Like and you know what, if I have to buy

465
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 3: a new computer, I mean I might buy a new

466
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 3: computer before I even need one. I might get in two.

467
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 2: Years, I've my same mentality because the first time I,

468
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 2: like the last time I bought a computer, I had

469
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 2: absolutely no money and so I had I was just

470
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 2: working a small time job and it was a huge purchase.

471
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 2: The one before that was college and so those were

472
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,359
Speaker 2: enormous purchases. And somewhere in the back of my mind

473
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 2: that is now just the biggest purchase you can possibly make.

474
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 2: It would be easier for me to buy a house

475
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 2: boat than a laptop.

476
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 3: And when you literally think, especially now in the pandemic

477
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 3: where you're on zoom calls or at least you know,

478
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 3: look I think now I'm the same thing. This is

479
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 3: a universal thing, but most of us are in this

480
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 3: business we have to be Why would you ever go like, well,

481
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,360
Speaker 3: I don't need it yet It's like, yeah, you do.

482
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 3: Now every part of your business is on the it's

483
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 3: the only thing you need. Yeah, So that has been

484
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 3: like for me, I try to like I definitely have

485
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 3: these arguments in my head. And I was thinking the

486
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,240
Speaker 3: other day, like somebody's like, what have you bought that's

487
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 3: been fun for pandemic And I'm like, nothing, But I

488
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 3: bought a lot of things that I needed that I

489
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 3: would never actually buy. And that makes me happy though too.

490
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 3: It's like I didn't go out and like, you know,

491
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 3: buy a popcorn maker, but I did buy like a

492
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 3: faarra gun. You know. It's like, you know these things

493
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 3: that have like have greatly improved my life. And yes

494
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 3: they're a little bit more expensive, but they are like

495
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 3: functional parts. There's no fun. It's all like this is

496
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 3: what I needed and now I got it them happier

497
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:24,159
Speaker 3: for it.

498
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,479
Speaker 2: Other things that are common sense purchases for other people

499
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 2: for me are big, big luxury luxuries. Essentially. I mean,

500
00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 2: I for the first time in my life recently, I

501
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 2: bought a second pair of shoes before my first pair

502
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,160
Speaker 2: of shoes had holes in them, and they're just sitting

503
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,479
Speaker 2: there waiting to be used. I was like, oh, I

504
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 2: like these shoes. I don't want to have to track

505
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 2: them down again in the future. I'm just going to

506
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 2: buy them. They were forty dollars. It felt crazy to me.

507
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 3: But I am the same. Yes, I bought. I have

508
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 3: in my closet right now, three pairs of Stan smith

509
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 3: because I'm like, all right, I saw sale one time,

510
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get on my I'm going to wear them again.

511
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 3: I like them, right, and I like I have a

512
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,199
Speaker 3: dressy pair of stand Smith's that I wear. I have

513
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 3: like you know, like, I'm like, let's get them, let's go,

514
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 3: let's go.

515
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 2: I finally got to the point where I'm like, there's

516
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 2: not going to be a giant style shift in my life.

517
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 2: I'm not going to become a different type of dresser.

518
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 2: I've been wearing this type of shoes for fifteen to

519
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 2: twenty years. I love something really drastic happens. Just spend

520
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: forty dollars. I think it's worth the gamble. And now

521
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 2: they're just waiting for me. Waiting to be worn out,

522
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 2: and they look wonderful.

523
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 3: And that's the whole thing. I think. When you find

524
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 3: that thing that you like, you got to double down,

525
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 3: You got to get into it. One of the best

526
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 3: decisions I've ever made in my life was a we're

527
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 3: the same idea, replace my underwear and replace my socks.

528
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 3: Why am I waiting for these things to wear out?

529
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,239
Speaker 3: By the way, undershirts as well, Like you know, like

530
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 3: for me, I'm not like an undershirt wear on the rag,

531
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 3: but like when I get dressed up in that time

532
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 3: when I edt to do that, you know, I want

533
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 3: a nice undershirt undneath there. And I was like, well,

534
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 3: what rick, why would you place it? Like what would

535
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 3: have to happen to the undershirt for to be replaced,

536
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 3: and the amount of battle damage that would have to

537
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,919
Speaker 3: be a crude on it, like would be so large

538
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 3: that I felt so much pleasure going like, these are

539
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 3: fine undershirts and guess what, I just found another six

540
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:17,400
Speaker 3: pack of Haynes white.

541
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 2: And a good undershirt. I don't wear undershirts, but yeah, yeah,

542
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 2: like when you're dressed up or what.

543
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like I often will wear an undershirt with a

544
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 3: button down shirt because for the fear that if I sweat,

545
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 3: you will see sweat stains and I need that little layer,

546
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:33,960
Speaker 3: and not that I'm like, I'm not like Albert Brooks

547
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 3: and broadcast news, but yeah, I want a little protection.

548
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 3: I will also say the underwears where I'm really experimenting,

549
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 3: like and I think that that is. It took me

550
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 3: a while again to be like, I'm getting rid of

551
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 3: underwear right, and now I believe I have my right

552
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 3: things like Hanes has my shirt my undershirt of choice.

553
00:25:55,640 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 3: I go between a Tommy John boxer brief and I'm

554
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 3: experimenting now with mack Weldon, which I also like Maldon.

555
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 2: I don't know mac Welton.

556
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 3: Mac Weldon is a podcast friendly underwear that I had

557
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 3: tried in the past because they were sponsored on how

558
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 3: to this Get Me? And I really like them. But

559
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 3: then when I went over to Tommy John, I was like, well,

560
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 3: I don't need these mac Weldon's anymore, and I was like,

561
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 3: you know, but I did like those mac Weldon's, And

562
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 3: then I went back to mac Weldon's, like they're pretty good,

563
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 3: and they're a little bit cheaper than Tommy John's.

564
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,120
Speaker 2: How much are you spending on a pair of underwear.

565
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 2: This will forever be a difficulty for me.

566
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 3: Well, I believe me, I'm in the same boat. They

567
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 3: are not cheap underwear, like they're not They're not They're

568
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 3: not ridiculously expensive. But like Tommy John sometimes will run

569
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 3: like I want to say, like three for forty five

570
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 3: dollars or you know.

571
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 2: See dollars for a pair of underwear. Seems wild to me.

572
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 3: Oh and by the way, that's like on sale, right,

573
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,360
Speaker 3: like they're like, you know, so I'm waiting for sales. No,

574
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 3: you're right, But again, I'm using them all the time, right,

575
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean I'm wearing them. I'm just gonna

576
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 3: you know, I'm wearing them all the time. I want

577
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,160
Speaker 3: to be comfortable in them. Why am I depriving myself

578
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 3: of this thing? And now I know that certain underwear

579
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,359
Speaker 3: like these feel good, I'm not going there because I'm like,

580
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 3: I need an expensive pair of underwear. These actually feel

581
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 3: good on my body, right, and why would I want?

582
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 3: Like these are better than the other ones? And that's it.

583
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 3: Like that's the same way I felt about my socks,

584
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 3: which are bombas. I was like, oh, I used to

585
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 3: always get Haynes and these bombas I'm like, these are

586
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 3: these actually feel good on my fake like when you

587
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 3: try something that actually feels good.

588
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 2: And for me, that's the fear, Like any increase in

589
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,800
Speaker 2: quality of life, I'm always afraid I won't be able

590
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 2: to return to the terrors that I was living through before.

591
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 2: And then what if I, you know, like an expensive

592
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 2: one and expensive pair of socks, suddenly I need all

593
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 2: expensive socks.

594
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 3: Well, you gotta like, you know, you gotta like again,

595
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 3: it's like the computer, get a price at the way

596
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 3: you want it, like, you know, like there's some things

597
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 3: we have to you know, embrace. I'm going to tell

598
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 3: you I'm going to pass an ugly, dirty rumor on

599
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 3: you came to the right podcast is Toby Maguire never

600
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 3: wears the same pair of underwear? What that's his thing?

601
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,200
Speaker 3: Why did you hear that? I had heard it from

602
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 3: a friend and that was his whole thing, Like he

603
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 3: doesn't like to rewear underwear.

604
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 2: Well, this must have started on Spider Man. I feel

605
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 2: like you're a Spider Man costume, those underwear getting just

606
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 2: you're tearing through them.

607
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know, I think that there is like

608
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 3: an element of let's uh, let's you know, look if

609
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 3: you can afford it. I don't feel that necessity. I'm

610
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:31,159
Speaker 3: not that kind of a person. I'm not like I

611
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 3: don't need to waste items. But I also find that

612
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 3: if you expend some good money on something, they last

613
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 3: way longer, and they're right, so they last longer and

614
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 3: they're more comfortable. And again, if you buy a cup

615
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 3: of coffee from like Starbucks, or you you order in

616
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 3: like you know, I always I always think about it

617
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 3: like this. I'm like, I'll have no problem having a

618
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 3: great dinner, but that great dinner, I'm not thinking about

619
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 3: that six months later or most or even fairly priced dinner.

620
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 3: Like I'm not like, oh boy, that night. There are

621
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 3: some amazing dinners that I've had. But but yet I

622
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 3: don't deliberate like should I get this or that, because

623
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 3: I have to really think about it. But meanwhile, the

624
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 3: underwear is on my body all the time, and yet

625
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, am I worthy of this? But I

626
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 3: just ate, you know, I ate a thirty eight dollars

627
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 3: piece of salmon at a restaurant that I probably could

628
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 3: have gotten at home for like seven bucks. Like you know,

629
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 3: they never gave it any thought. No, I need the salmon.

630
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 2: I guess the thing about like a good pair of

631
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 2: underwear is that you you're supposed to forget you're wearing them.

632
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 2: So like as with this piece of salmon, you know

633
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 2: you're eating a wonderful piece of salmon, so you it

634
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 2: feels like it's worth the money a pair of underwear

635
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 2: that you're forgetting, It's like, who cares? But of course

636
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 2: if they're horrible underwear and they're torturing you, well again, like,

637
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 2: I think, how many meals have you had that are

638
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 2: just fair? I've eaten now many times. Most of my

639
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 2: meals are fair, Like you.

640
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 3: Know, they're not like you know, they're like and that's

641
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 3: not anything to they're right home about. But it's like,

642
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 3: you get to a certain level, you're eating at a

643
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 3: certain you know, you're eating a certain level of food.

644
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 3: It's fair, it's good. What are you talking.

645
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 2: About If I don't have a great dinner. I mean,

646
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 2: this is before the pandemic. The dinner is the only

647
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 2: thing that I can count on during the day that

648
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 2: I'm going to enjoy, literally, the only thing. If I

649
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 2: was eating a fair dinner every time, I can have

650
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 2: a fair breakfast, I can have a fair lunch, I

651
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 2: can have a fair mid afternoon snack dinner has got

652
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 2: to be fireworks.

653
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 3: Okay, you see that's a very like I am. I'm

654
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 3: not a food snob, and I'm not saying that you are. Well,

655
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 3: I mean, that's all you're implying. Just no, because I

656
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 3: actually am I am. I am a person who researches

657
00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 3: and looks and like, whenever I'm out of town, I

658
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 3: have read every website I have gone down, have read

659
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 3: the user reviews. I'm going to eat at the place

660
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 3: I want to have. I want to have a good meal.

661
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 3: And I guess what I'm saying is the ones that

662
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 3: really skyrocket out are few and far between. So maybe

663
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 3: fair is a heart like good. It was good. It

664
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 3: was good, but it's not like I could tell you

665
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 3: I'm on one hand, like the five meals I kind

666
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 3: of remember as being like phenomenal, like in Japan. Yeah,

667
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 3: like when I ate in Japan, we were very researched

668
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 3: at where we went, and I can remember all those meals.

669
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 3: Those rights in Japan were great. But if I'm eating

670
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 3: in La, like, sure, ye happen to little dowms a bunch,

671
00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 3: it's good. I like little downs.

672
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 2: It's the little doms actually is fair.

673
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 3: Fair, it's fair.

674
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 2: It's absolutely fair astaurant.

675
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a nice restaurant. It's a fair it's a

676
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 3: good experience here there with people like like, I guess,

677
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 3: get I think there's so many, Like if I think

678
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 3: of all the times I eat out, all the meals

679
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 3: I eat in from ordering, it's like there's a handful

680
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 3: that are great, Like maybe in a year, I'm I

681
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,479
Speaker 3: guess I'm saying, and maybe this is where we're different.

682
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 3: And a year I'm going like, yeah, there's probably about

683
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 3: fifteen twenty meals on the year, Like that's a low

684
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 3: average that I'm like remembering. If you asked me, like,

685
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 3: what was the last great meal, I'm like, I get,

686
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 3: like I can draw a couple of lines, but it's

687
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 3: not like and oh, there's so many to choose from

688
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 3: what month?

689
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 2: Like well, but also if you're having a spectacular meal

690
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:14,960
Speaker 2: every single night, those all blur together.

691
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 3: So yeah, exactly, yeah, I guess, I mean all I

692
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 3: guess it's all you know, because sometimes a great meal

693
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 3: can be like a great burger burrito, Oh great burrito.

694
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 3: If had amazing burritos, Oh, h's the right spot. Sometimes

695
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 3: it's just about the moment and the food and it

696
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 3: all it hits you and then you get you're in

697
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 3: You're golden.

698
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 2: Right, you just come to it with the level of

699
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: hunger and almost anything, real spectacular meal.

700
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it.

701
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 2: I mean Law Pergoletta. Have you been to Law Pergoletta.

702
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 2: Oh yes, yes, places adhire people not going there over

703
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 2: little doms.

704
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 3: It's the atmosphere. I believe that there is a snobbery. Yeah, yeah, no, no, no,

705
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 3: no that no, people have a snobbery to law Pergoletta.

706
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,239
Speaker 3: Like I don't find this to be it's like, by

707
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 3: the way, that type place and this is a very

708
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 3: niche conversation, but there is a time I need to

709
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 3: talk about. Yeah, there's a tie place next to La

710
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 3: Pergoletta that's in that strip mall, not the one that's

711
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 3: on the corner by Heidiefice's dad's former pediatrician. But uh

712
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 3: oh yeah, that that little that place that became the

713
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 3: ice cream place, the little wooden house that was Heidie

714
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 3: Feis's dad's pediatricians. Yeah. So like we when we first

715
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 3: had our first kid, he passed away sadly but not sadly,

716
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 3: but he was older man, but he Yeah, we went

717
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 3: in there and and uh, yeah, that's Heidiefie's dad.

718
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 2: That's crazy. Then an ice cream place then shut down.

719
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that ice cream place that you know, which

720
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 3: I heard like Steven Spielberger is a back up. But anyway,

721
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 3: the idea there's a tie place in that strip mall

722
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 3: that's equally delicious, but you don't go there because it's like, well,

723
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 3: is it is it pining crane? Is it? Is it

724
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 3: that you know it's is it an eater? No, it's

725
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 3: not an eater. And some of the best like tie food,

726
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,360
Speaker 3: some of the best Mexic computer is not like on

727
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,120
Speaker 3: that eater list of the best of the bed not me.

728
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 3: So I'm sorry.

729
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 2: Mud Leather Booth to enjoy my Italian food exactly.

730
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 3: So there there is like that, like you know, I'm

731
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 3: not so I'm not just saying like spend the big

732
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 3: Bucks and you have the thing. I'm just saying that

733
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 3: there's you know, there's you know, there's a snobbery though

734
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 3: with that love Provoletta, because I've tried to take June

735
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 3: there and June has been like nah.

736
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 1: Why.

737
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 3: The food is so much better there? There's an energy

738
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 3: like little Doms is like June is especially like this,

739
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,840
Speaker 3: like She's like, I've made up my mind that that

740
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,479
Speaker 3: is the Italian place that we eat now. I brought

741
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 3: home John and Vinnie's last week because that is a

742
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 3: place that I that is, no bad meal has been

743
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 3: had there, uh you know, or at least for me,

744
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 3: and and that that will like trump Little Doms for rights,

745
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 3: world's apart, world's apart, world's apart. But yeah, so it's

746
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,399
Speaker 3: I think it's familiarity. I think it's sort of like, well,

747
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 3: we're a part of this club or part of the

748
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 3: Little Doms club. I hear him a lot of Parletta,

749
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:01,439
Speaker 3: give it some love.

750
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 2: I think I need to get I think the podcast

751
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 2: community has got to head to Los Angeles and head

752
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 2: to La Pergoletta, have you know, your little bread, your pasta,

753
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 2: your mediocre service, and ensue yourself. I don't know, I

754
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,800
Speaker 2: will stand up for that place any day of the week.

755
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,839
Speaker 2: I agree. I mean, now I've got my funnels here.

756
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 2: This is a huge life improvement for me. I'm not

757
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,760
Speaker 2: going to be just spilling things all over the place.

758
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 2: I like, I've been trying to get flour into jars.

759
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 2: I've been trying to get, you know.

760
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 3: Get ready, and then once you start to understand the

761
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 3: power of the funnel. I want you to go back

762
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 3: on whatever online shopping portal that you use and look

763
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 3: at a nicer funnel. This is just to get you in.

764
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,640
Speaker 2: This is this is what I was going to say.

765
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 2: I don't feel like you can get a funnels or funnels,

766
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 2: are they not?

767
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 3: You can get like an XO funnel. It's going to

768
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 3: be a lot more sturdy and a lot like I

769
00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 3: have an OLEXO funnel and it's it's there is there

770
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 3: is rubber tipping, there is a sturdiness to it, there

771
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 3: is a I mean, these are good. These are a funnel,

772
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 3: by the way, they're fair fair right, But a no

773
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 3: XO is going to really knock you up.

774
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I will say, this doesn't look like a

775
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 2: funnel for a hot liquid. I'm not going to be

776
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 2: pouring a boiling hot soup, right, That's what I'm saying.

777
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 3: So now, once you start to be like I like it,

778
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 3: get on that online portal, look get a nicer funnel.

779
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 2: I've got a toe in the water of the funnel community.

780
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. You're in.

781
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 2: Now you're experimenting and exploring. This is very exciting, Paul,

782
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 2: I want to play a game do you want to play?

783
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 2: We have two games. One's called Gift Master, one one

784
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 2: is called Gift or a Curse. You choose and I'll

785
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 2: tell you what it's all about. All right, Well, I'm

786
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 2: going to ask you questions, say what would you what

787
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 2: have you not played in a while, because I think

788
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:48,399
Speaker 2: it will be making more.

789
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 3: Interesting for you? And then because either one or a title,

790
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 3: let's play. Gift Masters always fun. I like Gift Master.

791
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 3: I was going to say that that's what I wanted

792
00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 3: to play because it sounded a little bit more like

793
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 3: a fire tear and I feel like we could get

794
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:02,839
Speaker 3: it right. Yeah, I'm really laying it down.

795
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, to play this game, I need a number

796
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 2: between one and ten from you.

797
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 3: Okay, eight, Okay.

798
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 2: I have to do some calculating really quickly. While I'm

799
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 2: doing this. You can recommend something, you can promote something.

800
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 2: You can apologize to somebody, make a public apology. I've

801
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,000
Speaker 2: never asked you know, you can do whatever you want.

802
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 2: I'll be right back.

803
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,400
Speaker 3: Okay, great, as you are doing that, I'm gonna say that,

804
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,240
Speaker 3: you know, I often say the secret of gift giving

805
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 3: is not getting a gift for the person that you

806
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 3: think they are, they get a gift for the person

807
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 3: that they actually are. And then I see you still typing.

808
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 3: So I'm going to go and I'll plug. I'll plug

809
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 3: just the idea of you know, come visit me on Twitch,

810
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 3: which has been a fun thing that we've been doing

811
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 3: in pandemic doing bits. You should come on Twitch with us.

812
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 3: Me and Rob people have been doing shows. Me and

813
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 3: Adam Palley have been doing shows and they've been so

814
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 3: much fun. And people are, I think, are very nervous

815
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 3: about Twitch. But it's just like YouTube. Just go to

816
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 3: twitch dot tv, slash Paul Sheer and it's so easy.

817
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 3: It's just it's not hard. I thought like, do I

818
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 3: need to be a member? Do I need to sign

819
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 3: up for this? No? No, no, no, It's just it's

820
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 3: just like YouTube, but it seems scarier and it's not

821
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,399
Speaker 3: so now that we're in a new year, I want

822
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 3: you to open yourself up to that.

823
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 2: Okay, fantastic. I like half heard what you were saying there,

824
00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:24,799
Speaker 2: and I probably like a nice combination of things. And

825
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 2: I have to ask you, I have yet to open Twitch.

826
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 2: What is happening on Twitch? What are you doing us?

827
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 3: Okay, So I'm basically just doing different fun comedy shows. Okay,

828
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 3: it gives me that it scratches an itch for me.

829
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 3: That is like live performing. So I have a show

830
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 3: that I host with robb Ubel just called Thursdays with

831
00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 3: Robin Paul every Thursday five to seven Pacific time, and

832
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 3: we bring on people like Judy Greer, MICHAELA. Watkins, and

833
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,280
Speaker 3: Jerry O'Connell and just a random a bunch of people.

834
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 3: It's kind of like an R rated talk show, but

835
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 3: we just we interact with the audience. We do bits,

836
00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 3: we have characters come on and it's real loose. Adam

837
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 3: past Ally and I do a show where we have

838
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 3: people send us their Twitter drafts jokes, yeah, and then

839
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 3: we look at the drafts and we go, okay, this

840
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 3: this is why this doesn't work, and then we all

841
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 3: together build them a better one and then we tell

842
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 3: them to send it out and then we see how

843
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:15,879
Speaker 3: we do.

844
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,400
Speaker 2: Have you seen success with your noted tweets?

845
00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 3: We have, We have seen a lot of Like I

846
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 3: I was, so, I had a joke which was what

847
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 3: if the Snyder cut isn't good? And Adam was like,

848
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 3: you know, that's like that's still to niche And I

849
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:35,439
Speaker 3: was like, I know, that's why it's in my drafts.

850
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 3: And we start talking about it and I'm just using

851
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 3: mind because I don't want to put somebody else's out

852
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 3: there by that, and the audience started chiming in and

853
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 3: what we eventually came up with was, this is the

854
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 3: only Snyder cut that I want. And then we had

855
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,359
Speaker 3: a picture of a Snyder Pretzel broken in half and

856
00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 3: it did transformation. Yeah, I did. It did great and

857
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 3: I was like, wow, would never have gone to Snyder Pretzel.

858
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 3: And so there's you know, it's but it's actually fun

859
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 3: because we're saying we're putting ourselves out there, and we're

860
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,879
Speaker 3: letting people put themselves out there, ranting that you think

861
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 3: this is funny. We're saying this is what you can't.

862
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 3: You haven't there's a reason why you hit save the draft, right, right,

863
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 3: So we need to look at that and kind of

864
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:16,840
Speaker 3: examine it. I love that.

865
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,879
Speaker 2: Okay, enough of that, though, we're gonna play the game.

866
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:23,720
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you three potential gifts items things

867
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,879
Speaker 2: like this, and then three celebrities. You're going to tell

868
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 2: me which celebrity you're going to give which gift and

869
00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:28,800
Speaker 2: why does.

870
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,680
Speaker 3: That make sense to you. Yes, okay.

871
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 2: The three gifts are number one is a thoughtful note,

872
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 2: Number two is frozen dinners for a year, and number

873
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 2: three is a water pick, you know, for your teeth.

874
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 2: The three celebrities. You're gonna have to give these two?

875
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 2: Oh god, this is where I fall apart every episode

876
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 2: trying to find the celebrities.

877
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 3: And we want to just edit this all out.

878
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 2: No, you've got to leave this all in.

879
00:40:56,800 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 3: You've got to keep.

880
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 2: Okay, Number one Juliette Lewis. Number two, let's see Connie Britton. Okay, Oh,

881
00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 2: this is an all female a gift master. And number

882
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 2: three is Sheryl Crow.

883
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 3: I love it. And what's the middle gift? It's a

884
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 3: water pic, it's a thoughtful note, and it's a what

885
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,879
Speaker 3: frozen dinners for a year. That's a full calendar year

886
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,839
Speaker 3: of frozen meals. All right, well I'm going to make

887
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 3: and what kind of frozen meal we're talking about? We're

888
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 3: talking about like this is so to you.

889
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 2: Yes, this could be you know, you know, hungry man dinners.

890
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 2: This could be like Okay, I got my theory.

891
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 3: Then I'm going to talk to a very good chef

892
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 3: who is going to make a bespoke frozen meal for

893
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 3: a year for Connie Britton. Connie Britain is an amazing actress.

894
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 3: She is a single mom, and you put those things together,

895
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 3: does she have time for herself? And you know what,

896
00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 3: sometimes she wants to come home and not worry about postmating,

897
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,080
Speaker 3: not worrying about door dashing. She wants to be able

898
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:00,879
Speaker 3: to be like, I'm going to turn on the oven,

899
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 3: put this in there, and I'm going to be happy

900
00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:04,759
Speaker 3: because I'm working hard on Rescue nine to one one

901
00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 3: or whatever she's on right now, and I want her

902
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 3: to be fed and happy. And because she's doing so

903
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:12,440
Speaker 3: much taking care of everybody, being number one on that call,

904
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 3: she's taking care of that baby. So Connie Britton, you're

905
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,279
Speaker 3: getting a year of frozen meals, which we love that.

906
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 2: Connie Britton is maybe the most comforting presence on television.

907
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 2: Anytime she's on something, I know I'm in good hands

908
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 2: with Connie.

909
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 3: I had a real embarrassing moment with her.

910
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 2: Wow, you sent her a frozen meals.

911
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 3: For a year, all right. I don't approach celebrities. I

912
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 3: know that it's a bad, a bad thing for me

913
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 3: to do because they're not going to live up to expectation.

914
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 3: I don't think the interaction will be good. I don't

915
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 3: play it cool. I just don't play it. It's hard

916
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 3: and occasionally when I have played its backfired. So I'm

917
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 3: at the Arc Light. I'm loving Friday Night Lights. It's amazing.

918
00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 3: It's one of its transformation. It's a great show. I'm

919
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 3: walking in, I'm by myself. She's walking out, she's by herself.

920
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 3: I stop her. I don't I know how to do this.

921
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,239
Speaker 3: I don't because I've also been someone on the other

922
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 3: end of this. I kind of get get in the

923
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 3: way of her, you know, just so I can kind

924
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 3: of like make eye contact, and I go, You're absolutely amazing,

925
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 3: thank you for everything that you do. And I keep

926
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 3: on walking. I'm not stopping. I'm not asking sure, but

927
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 3: I do that. Two days later, I go to a wedding.

928
00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:35,280
Speaker 3: She's dating one of my friends. So I have stopped

929
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 3: this person as a fan, and then I have to

930
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 3: sit at table with her as a friend. And now

931
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm dying. I'm dying on the inside

932
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 3: that I have been like, what just do I acknowledge it?

933
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,359
Speaker 3: Do I not acknowledge it? And I decided I wasn't

934
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 3: going to acknowledge it because I thought, you know what,

935
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 3: it was a quick enough interaction that a was not memorable,

936
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 3: it was positive. And she ances are she doesn't remember

937
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 3: my face, and I don't think that you did. But

938
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 3: I live there with the guilt knowing it was existing,

939
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 3: hanging over our head and I never do it. And

940
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 3: I was like, that's why you can never do this.

941
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 3: You can never do that. So yeah, that was that

942
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 3: was my Connie Britton story. And I didn't mean it.

943
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:18,560
Speaker 2: There's a chance she was sitting there thinking that's the

944
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,280
Speaker 2: guy from the movie Theater. I hope he doesn't bring.

945
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 3: This up, right, And and so I think I did

946
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,840
Speaker 3: myself and her a favor. We both played the game expertly,

947
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 3: if that is the case, right, We avoided it all.

948
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,359
Speaker 3: And by the way I would have said it to her, Yeah,

949
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 3: Like I wasn't like I love you, marry me, baby,

950
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 3: you know, I wasn't like I didn't do anything so embarrassing,

951
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 3: but it still was embarrassing. It was embarrassing to be

952
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:45,640
Speaker 3: a fan and then have to be social.

953
00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 2: Right.

954
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:47,440
Speaker 3: I don't want to do I don't want to cross

955
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,839
Speaker 3: those deep things, you know, the show that we are on,

956
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 3: Like I very rarely have said anything nice to the

957
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 3: leads of that show, because I don't want to come

958
00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 3: across to thirsty.

959
00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 2: I mean, but it's a you. These people probably want

960
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 2: to hear these things.

961
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 3: Everybody does.

962
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 2: Everybody.

963
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 3: Everybody wants to hear that they're great.

964
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 2: But it's also get receiving a compliments uncomfortable regardless. So

965
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 2: there's a whole game you have to play there. Well,

966
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,840
Speaker 2: that was my whole My whole trick is I'm gonna

967
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 2: buzz by you. I'm going to tom cruise you and

968
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 2: top gun you. I'm going to bag You're great. I'm

969
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 2: not stopping You're great.

970
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 3: And there's a nice like hey like like I as

971
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 3: someone who's experienced. When I first I had a little

972
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 3: bit of recognizability, it was in New York City. I

973
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 3: was doing a show called Best Week Ever, which is

974
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 3: kind of like a cliff Notes of pop culture front Week,

975
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 3: and so it was on every weekend. People really became

976
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 3: familiar with me in a way that was kind of

977
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:45,440
Speaker 3: jaw dropping, Like, you know, living in New York City,

978
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:47,839
Speaker 3: so I would be walking down the street at all

979
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:50,399
Speaker 3: times and be like, oh, Best we Ever, that's awesome.

980
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 3: But da da and and most of my New York

981
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,920
Speaker 3: interactions were that like a horn honk, I love you great,

982
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,799
Speaker 3: I love it. It's the best. Then I've had ones

983
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 3: the not so great. Okay, So water pick. This is

984
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 3: a tricky one because who wants a water pick? Honestly,

985
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:08,359
Speaker 3: who does want a water pick?

986
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,720
Speaker 2: Well, look, every dentist wants every one of their clients

987
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 2: to have two dentists have clients. I don't know they

988
00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 2: do like patience. I suppose I feel like I'm always

989
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,280
Speaker 2: getting the hard sell on a water pick from my dentist,

990
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:22,400
Speaker 2: doctor Nancy.

991
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:25,239
Speaker 3: I'm never I've never heard a water pick. I've heard

992
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 3: electric toothbrushes, like an oral b kind of electric toothbrush, right,

993
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 3: I've never but my grandmother had a water pick, and

994
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 3: she's always putting baking soda in there and kind of

995
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 3: getting into some sort of foamy thing. I hear it.

996
00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 3: I get the water pick. But I'm looking at these

997
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,359
Speaker 3: two women. I'm looking at Cheryl Crow, I'm looking at

998
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 3: Juliet Lewis, And now I know that, like the the

999
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 3: air is coming out of this game in a second,

1000
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,920
Speaker 3: because once I choose this, you know what I'm doing

1001
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 3: for the next So I need to like really deliberate it,

1002
00:46:55,840 --> 00:47:01,840
Speaker 3: and I'm going to say, show Crow, great smile, great teeth.

1003
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:10,319
Speaker 3: But there's something about writing a note, a thoughtful note

1004
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 3: to Sheryl Crow that knows you are a poet in

1005
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 3: your songwriting. I'm going to reciprocate and give you a

1006
00:47:15,160 --> 00:47:16,879
Speaker 3: little bit of me. You gave me so much of you,

1007
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 3: Let me give you that. And I think that if

1008
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,080
Speaker 3: I do that, she's going to be like, Oh, you're

1009
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 3: talking to me on my level. You are you know,

1010
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,480
Speaker 3: we get where I'm at, and I feel like we're

1011
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:28,880
Speaker 3: gonna have a better bond. Whereas if I gave a

1012
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,920
Speaker 3: thoughtful note to Juliet Lewis, she might be offended. She

1013
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 3: might take that as an active aggression. I don't write.

1014
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 3: She's unpredictable. Juliette Lewis.

1015
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 2: I had a small interaction with juliett Lewis years and

1016
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 2: years ago in Park City. I had some friends and

1017
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 2: I had gone up to sun Dance to just you know,

1018
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,240
Speaker 2: walk around. We ran into Juliet Lewis. I said hello

1019
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 2: to Juliet Lewis, and she's all she said was I

1020
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 2: kind of gotta go.

1021
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 3: So that was the interaction. And by the way, that

1022
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:02,879
Speaker 3: seems about right. Juliette Lewis is, I would say a

1023
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:07,680
Speaker 3: more stable Winona Rider, and that is a tricky place

1024
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:09,840
Speaker 3: to be. I like Juliette Lewis. I think that she

1025
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:13,760
Speaker 3: is actually a fantastic actress. But I feel like she's

1026
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 3: got an energy to her that I don't even want

1027
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 3: to say she's prickly. I don't. I don't think it's like,

1028
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:20,400
Speaker 3: I don't think it's bitchy. I don't think. I just

1029
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:21,839
Speaker 3: feel like, you don't want to upset her. You don't

1030
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 3: want to, like you know, it's like you don't want

1031
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,840
Speaker 3: to approach an animal too quickly, like you know, so

1032
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,160
Speaker 3: I want to. I want to make sure that when

1033
00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 3: I approach her that I do it with love and

1034
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:33,439
Speaker 3: care and respect and within her boundaries. So I think

1035
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 3: I would give her a water pick, but I would

1036
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 3: have to say to her, Hey, this is you know.

1037
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 3: I had one of these, an ex true one, and

1038
00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 3: I thought, you want this because I don't know what

1039
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 3: to do with it, and I actually love it. And

1040
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:47,799
Speaker 3: so then I'm showing her like I have it. I'm

1041
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,360
Speaker 3: not giving it too because you have a problem with

1042
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 3: your teeth. I'm giving it to you because like I

1043
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,400
Speaker 3: actually think it's good and I care about you and

1044
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 3: and you know, I'm just giving to you because of that,

1045
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 3: Like i'd have to kind of create a story around it.

1046
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 3: I couldn't just gift.

1047
00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 2: Now.

1048
00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,919
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's a rule of gift.

1049
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 2: I would that's a good techtic to say you already

1050
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 2: had one. It seems like you didn't even go out

1051
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 2: of your way. It's just like I just headed out

1052
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 2: of the house and I grabbed this.

1053
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 3: By the way. That was my style of dating when

1054
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,239
Speaker 3: I was in New York. I would I would be like,

1055
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 3: you know, if I would say to you, would be like, oh,

1056
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 3: you know, I am so crazy. I got I have

1057
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,480
Speaker 3: like these two tickets for you know, whatever it is.

1058
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 3: Do you want to come because I, you know, my

1059
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 3: friend bailed out at the last second, and I just

1060
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 3: you know, when I come, and then it was like, oh,

1061
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,839
Speaker 3: we're kind of now. Look, I understand that could also

1062
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:30,879
Speaker 3: work in a negative way, but it was a way

1063
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,960
Speaker 3: of asking somebody out and then look, if a connection

1064
00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:36,200
Speaker 3: is happening. I wouldn't do that going like and then

1065
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 3: we're going to make out, Like I wasn't trying to

1066
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,200
Speaker 3: like lay on like now we're on a date. But

1067
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 3: I'm like, if I can get you out right, I

1068
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 3: and go somewhere with you and we enjoy each other's

1069
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:49,920
Speaker 3: company outside in this world. Let's let the world do

1070
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,440
Speaker 3: its magic and push it together now, like you know,

1071
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 3: like because then we can decide let's do it again

1072
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 3: or let's never do it again. It's but it's a

1073
00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 3: less of a pressurized situation, and I always found that

1074
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 3: was Actually you are really good at points confusing.

1075
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:08,319
Speaker 2: Bringing some cloud of confusion into a first state. It

1076
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: allows for any possibility.

1077
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:11,840
Speaker 3: Right, and it allows you to get out with that

1078
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,400
Speaker 3: because like if you are dating someone who you don't

1079
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 3: you might see again, you know, you can allow you

1080
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 3: can allow a couple of things to happen. First of all,

1081
00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:22,640
Speaker 3: if that person's like is this a date? I don't

1082
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 3: want this to be a date, they can drop whatever

1083
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:26,880
Speaker 3: bomb they want to drop on you early on, and

1084
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 3: then you're going into it going okay, well, now I

1085
00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 3: know the lay of the land, like oh my girlfriend,

1086
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 3: my boyfriend, my what whoever said this? They can lay

1087
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 3: it down if I wasn't a date, So now I'm

1088
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 3: not embarrassed. Now you're not embarrassed. So you give each

1089
00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,239
Speaker 3: person a ripcord to pull. You know, you could do

1090
00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:44,479
Speaker 3: it yourself, but it allows you. It allows you guys

1091
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 3: to like, let's see what's there, and see what's there.

1092
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:49,319
Speaker 3: And then it's like, oh yeah, we we when we

1093
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 3: saw Hamilton together, it was fun. Yeah, we had a

1094
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 3: great time. Well, you know, one table, we'll do that

1095
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 3: again and then we don't have to do it. But

1096
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 3: we as friends we went to go do something that

1097
00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:59,960
Speaker 3: was fun, but we didn't like go ballroom dancing.

1098
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 2: You know.

1099
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 3: It's it's sort of like I.

1100
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 2: Had an extra pair of tickets to a ballroom dancing class.

1101
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:05,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, so it's like there was like there

1102
00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,760
Speaker 3: was an element to that that I you know, obviously

1103
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 3: part of it was just my nervousness of wanting being

1104
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,040
Speaker 3: afraid to ask somebody out. But uh I found it

1105
00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:17,440
Speaker 3: to be a good, low key way in. And again

1106
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:19,560
Speaker 3: we'll cause some problems because then I think, then you're

1107
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,560
Speaker 3: both second guessing are we on dates? Are we not

1108
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 3: on dates? And then but I think if you reciprocate,

1109
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:30,040
Speaker 3: like let's do this again, like what are you doing Friday?

1110
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,640
Speaker 3: Like that's the ball into somebody else's card, then we know, okay,

1111
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 3: well this is now we're not like, we're not in

1112
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,720
Speaker 3: a stage like we need friends. We're in a stage

1113
00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 3: of what's something there?

1114
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,440
Speaker 2: Exactly. It's a decent tactic. I mean, I don't know.

1115
00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 2: I'm always in favor of a little confusion, a little confusion. Okay,

1116
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 2: So Juliette's getting a water pick, Cheryl's getting a thoughtful note.

1117
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 2: This is I think you've done an excellent job here.

1118
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:53,399
Speaker 3: Thank you so much.

1119
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:55,880
Speaker 2: We're going to move on to the final segment. You've

1120
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 2: proven everything you need to prove to me. This is

1121
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,360
Speaker 2: called I said no question. People are writing into I

1122
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,640
Speaker 2: said no gifts at gmail dot com. They have nowhere

1123
00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 2: else to turn. They're trying to find gifts for people

1124
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:07,720
Speaker 2: in their lives. So I'm going to read this real quick,

1125
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 2: he says Bridger and Guest. My husband and I recently

1126
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 2: had to evacuate due to the Oregon wildfires, and our

1127
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:18,720
Speaker 2: friends graciously sheltered us during one of the worst weeks

1128
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,920
Speaker 2: of our live. I want to get them a gift

1129
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 2: as a thank you for opening their home to us.

1130
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 2: The wife loves cooking, reading, and gardening. The husband loves sports,

1131
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:31,400
Speaker 2: surfing and Jurassic Park. Of these are exciting people any suggestions.

1132
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 2: Thank you. That's from Amy L. So this is interesting

1133
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 2: coming around to the guest bedroom thing. I mean, this

1134
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 2: is a real full circle for this episode. Yes, these

1135
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 2: people have been have been sheltering. They're trying to get

1136
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 2: a thank you for the friends who have sheltered them

1137
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 2: in their home. The husband loves Jurassic Park and surfing.

1138
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:56,840
Speaker 2: He's centrally seventeen years old, and the wife likes to

1139
00:52:56,880 --> 00:53:00,759
Speaker 2: cook and read and garden. When when you stay in

1140
00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:02,640
Speaker 2: someone's guest bedroom, do you get them a gift?

1141
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 3: Yes? What do you get them? The go to for

1142
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,880
Speaker 3: me is flowers. The minute you leave, flowers, that's pleasure.

1143
00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 3: Thank you so much for having me. That was lovely.

1144
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:15,400
Speaker 3: It's a thoughtful gift. It's just sort of like I

1145
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:20,239
Speaker 3: acknowledge that you hosted me in some way, and when

1146
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,319
Speaker 3: I'm there, I'm going to buy a dinner. I'm going

1147
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:24,319
Speaker 3: to certain you know, I'm going to do that there,

1148
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 3: you know, Yeah, I'm going to bring something into the house.

1149
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:30,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna make my you know,

1150
00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 3: I don't have to do anything major, but that's you know,

1151
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 3: oftentimes when you are staying with somebody, uh, there's reasons,

1152
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 3: so they're you know whether or not. It's like I'm

1153
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 3: not affording a hotel, so you got to figure out

1154
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:42,000
Speaker 3: a way to give back. But they were there for

1155
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:45,680
Speaker 3: a long time, right, I think, yeah, I think they're

1156
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:49,240
Speaker 3: thinking about this the wrong way. How so they're thinking

1157
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:53,200
Speaker 3: about it as an individual gift. Like he likes Jurassic

1158
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 3: Park and surfing, she likes reading and cooking. These are

1159
00:53:55,760 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 3: bland things. Okay, you were there, what did you think?

1160
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 3: I think they need it right? Yeah, Like for example,

1161
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 3: now I don't know what you're gonna spend, but I'm

1162
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 3: just gonna put a couple of things on the table.

1163
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 3: This is how I would look at it. Did they

1164
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:13,719
Speaker 3: have a PlayStation and they like playing PlayStation and then

1165
00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 3: now you know the PlayStation five's out, that may be

1166
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,279
Speaker 3: a fun thing. Did they have a Now this is

1167
00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,200
Speaker 3: a very big gift, but depending if you have a

1168
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,160
Speaker 3: costco membership might not be a bad Like did they

1169
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 3: have an old TV and they were like, oh, we're

1170
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 3: gonna get around to getting a new TV. Again, demanding

1171
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:26,759
Speaker 3: on how long if they're there for like two or

1172
00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 3: three months? Like if it's like rent right, yeah, Like,

1173
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 3: so I think you have to think about the house

1174
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 3: and the setting of it, like oh they love to grill,

1175
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,040
Speaker 3: do they have an egg? Do they have a a

1176
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:45,919
Speaker 3: pizza oven? Or whether like there are ways to think

1177
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,479
Speaker 3: of it, but you have to go like I was there,

1178
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 3: I was in the space. What were the complaints, what

1179
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 3: were the wants?

1180
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,719
Speaker 2: What you're describing as just passive aggression.

1181
00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:58,360
Speaker 3: Well, no, because I think if you came to my

1182
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 3: house you would hear certain things like I would say, oh,

1183
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:04,919
Speaker 3: you know, well because it's hard because they just buy

1184
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:06,920
Speaker 3: the things that I want. But like for you know,

1185
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:12,160
Speaker 3: but like for example, if you saw me having trouble

1186
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,919
Speaker 3: putting something into a thing, you'd be like, oh, maybe

1187
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:16,880
Speaker 3: I should get this guy funnel, like you know, or

1188
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,399
Speaker 3: or or we joked about it like oh yeahs buy

1189
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 3: those funnels. Like you gotta think I think a nice

1190
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,640
Speaker 3: because people are doing it at the courtesy of their

1191
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 3: own self. But there also is like a niceness of

1192
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:27,719
Speaker 3: saying they're doing it because they want to be nice.

1193
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:29,400
Speaker 3: They're not doing it because they want something. But if

1194
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 3: you saw a moment, if you had an interaction where

1195
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,920
Speaker 3: they said, oh you should get this or you get it,

1196
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:37,319
Speaker 3: you know, then it's like then you got them the

1197
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,239
Speaker 3: thing like you got to get a slow cooker. Oh yeah,

1198
00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:41,560
Speaker 3: I've never been able to for it. A slow cooker boom,

1199
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 3: so cooker comes in the mail. Like it doesn't have

1200
00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:45,880
Speaker 3: to be big, it just has to be unique and

1201
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:49,400
Speaker 3: specific to something that you experience. And that's why whenever

1202
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:51,359
Speaker 3: they use that rice cooker, they'll think of you because

1203
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,640
Speaker 3: they're like, we said it and he remembered it and

1204
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:54,360
Speaker 3: that way right.

1205
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 2: So I think this just comes down to this Amy character.

1206
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 2: Let's pray to God that she was listening to these

1207
00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,359
Speaker 2: people and paying attention while she was in the home.

1208
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 3: Well that's what you need to do. And you got

1209
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 3: a thing. If you haven't, you got to think about

1210
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,040
Speaker 3: it and you got to go back and you got it.

1211
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 3: But you gotta look. And everybody talks about something. I

1212
00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:18,320
Speaker 3: mean I literally had I literally uh literally had a

1213
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:21,960
Speaker 3: uh you know, like like what I was gonna say,

1214
00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:23,880
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I'm like I just lost my own and

1215
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,399
Speaker 3: my own passion of it. Like you, like you will

1216
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,759
Speaker 3: always have these conversations about what you want, Like I

1217
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:30,399
