WEBVTT - Catching Up on a Few Things… 0:00:03.120 --> 0:00:05.840 Hey there, folks, it feels like it's been a while. 0:00:06.160 --> 0:00:08.360 We have a lot we want to say and a 0:00:08.400 --> 0:00:10.399 lot we want to share with you right now in 0:00:10.440 --> 0:00:14.960 this episode of Amy and TJ, including the fact that 0:00:15.160 --> 0:00:18.720 Roboc and I have been living together full time as 0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:23.119 of two weeks ago. It was not by choice. Also, 0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:26.720 we don't usually respond to headlines related to us, but 0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:30.360 today we need to clear up some bs that's been 0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:33.160 attributed to us. Also, as many as you know, we've 0:00:33.159 --> 0:00:35.320 been training five months for a marathon that's in two 0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:38.960 weeks now. Only one of the two of us might 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:43.479 end up running that marathon. Also, I am getting my 0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:46.760 it's just an honor to be nominated speech ready in 0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:50.080 anticipation of a humiliating defeat I'm going to suffer at 0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:53.519 the hands of Taylor Swift's boyfriend. Plus in this episode, 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:56.639 in the past few weeks, we've launched two more episode, 0:00:56.640 --> 0:00:58.920 two more podcasts. We've been really busy. Also, we want 0:00:58.960 --> 0:01:00.760 to invite you to come to see us live on 0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:06.600 stage in Chicago. And finally, I quite literally tossed Robes 0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:10.000 into the arms of another man. But I had a 0:01:10.160 --> 0:01:13.800 very good and a very scary reason for doing so, 0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:17.240 And with that everybody welcome. What are you giggling about? 0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:20.120 Ro because I love so I don't know what your 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:23.160 intro is before you do it. And the last one 0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:25.520 threw me for a second and I thought he did what? 0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:27.880 And then I laughed because I remember. 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:30.600 Yes, speaking of throwing you, I did literally throw you. 0:01:30.640 --> 0:01:32.600 We will get into that, but that was It was 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.800 scary for a moment there. We laugh about it now, 0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:37.759 but it was a life lesson in a lot of ways. 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:40.800 It was, and it actually had us re evaluating our 0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:44.559 own lives afterwards. That's absolutely the truth. Where you'd think 0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:46.919 you go through enough of life and enough things happened 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.680 that you've you've gotten some good perspective, but man it 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:53.000 sometimes it just takes a millisecond and new perspective is 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:54.520 immediately gleaned. 0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:57.520 We got it that. We went from Skinny Wagarita's doche 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.600 and about us split second. So I'll tell you all 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.160 about that, but I want to add we have our 0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:08.320 super producers in the room, Andy and Emma Animal by 0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:13.880 Def Leppard. Do you all know the song They're Youngsters 0:02:14.120 --> 0:02:17.760 Me and Bobby McGhee by Janis Joplin. You'll know that one. Yes, 0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:21.280 that's a yes. To Andy. Emma is a no California 0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.239 love by Tupac Shakur. Do you all know that song? Yes, 0:02:24.639 --> 0:02:33.760 Emma California done? Okay, I bring those up for what reason? Robot? 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.680 We've had a very difficult cultural back and forth in 0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:37.600 the last few. 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.600 Weeks, last few weeks, how about the last ten years? 0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:42.399 Okay? Yeah, maybe I can't. 0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.399 Believe you don't know songs. You can't believe I don't 0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:48.880 know songs. Yes, So I guess we'll start with Animal 0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:52.840 right because we went to go see Finally Speak No Evil, 0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:56.880 so good the twenty twenty four rendition and I and 0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:58.320 we both loved the movie. 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:01.560 But can we give James McAvoy some James boy. 0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:05.639 I think deserves an Oscar nomination for his portrayal. It 0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:10.519 was creepy and perfect and evil and likable all in one. 0:03:10.639 --> 0:03:13.840 He was a charismatic, scary person, right, but. 0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:15.720 He creeps you out the whole time. You were uncomfortable, 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:18.800 even though there wasn't horror and gore. You were uncomfortable 0:03:18.840 --> 0:03:20.840 for so much of that movie, and he carries it 0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:23.960 in a way. Look, the reviews weren't great, so we 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:25.640 even questioned whether or not you've been wanting to go 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:28.720 for weeks. We finally go. He nailed it. But a 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:31.840 song comes on in the beginning and you lose your mind, 0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:34.160 and I'm looking around, like, why these white people getting 0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:35.040 excited in the theater. 0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:39.040 Death Leopard was the first concert I went to. I'm 0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:43.000 a huge deaf Leopard fan. And they start out the 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:46.400 movie playing animal and you looked at me and you said, 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:47.240 you know this song? 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:49.520 And I looked at you and said, you don't know 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:50.160 this song. 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:53.640 I actually think if y'all heard it, you would say, Okay, 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:56.080 I know that song, and we can't play it for 0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:58.360 you know, royalties and all the reasons why we can 0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:00.240 never play. But I'm telling you check it out. Really 0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:02.520 don't necessarily know the name of it. If you've listened 0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:04.520 to it, I bet you most. 0:04:04.240 --> 0:04:06.160 People will know that song all right. And me and 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:09.160 Bobby McGhee, oh classic. No, we're talking about this now 0:04:09.200 --> 0:04:12.080 because we just got word. We're recording this after hearing 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:14.920 just Chris Christofferson passed away at the age of eighty eight, 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.839 and he actually wrote that song. I was listening to 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:21.200 it this morning. I went through the whole thing. I 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:23.480 was waiting on a chorus, a line and did nothing 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:24.200 sound to familiar. 0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:26.120 Da da da da Da Da da d It's so 0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:28.080 funny because I said, well, wait, have you heard it? 0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:30.760 Because I in my mind you just don't know this title. 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:33.599 You're like, no, I listened to the whole thing first 0:04:33.640 --> 0:04:36.760 time I ever heard it in my life, which close 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:38.119 my mind. 0:04:38.360 --> 0:04:38.720 Apa. 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.400 My daughter actually sang that one time at one of 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:44.200 her concerts, so you know, maybe she'll sing it again. 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:46.000 I missed that concert, but there. 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:48.440 Was another one coming up this Thursday. 0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:50.360 So but it held this. We have a long lived 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:52.440 and to the point we wanted to do an episode 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:56.400 strictly on music. And you are blown away when I 0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:58.520 tell you I have never heard a song before, to 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:01.359 the point that I said to you, okay, you didn't 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:05.839 know California Love by Tupac. Nope, as shocked as you 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:08.120 were about these other That's how shocked I was about 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:12.240 you not knowing that song Tupac. And there's tons more. 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:13.720 We can't think of them now we have a list 0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.120 of them. But that was mind blowing. But that was 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:17.240 Hilarious's always funny, but. 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:20.240 It continues, like I guarantee you next week we'll have 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:22.680 more songs. And we can't believe the other one's never 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:23.359 heard before. 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:27.640 But we have been Look, we have been extremely It 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:29.920 has been a crazy busy summer. I don't know if 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:31.760 we've had a chance or a podcast to just to 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:33.880 do kind of a debrief, but we have had an 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:38.040 incredible fun summer. Kids been busy, We have been busy, 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.920 we have been traveling, and in the past few weeks 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.200 here we haven't even got a chance. On this regular 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.560 episode of Amy and TJ got to talk about the 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:47.640 fact that we just launched two more podcasts in the 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:48.479 past couple of weeks. 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:50.479 That's amazing. I think the last time we did a 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:52.880 debrief was when we were wrapping up Rome and we 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:54.600 did it in a rivaderci and. 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:55.080 That was fun. 0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:57.400 But I think that's the last time we've actually sat 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.159 down and kind of gone over what's been happening in 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.640 our lives. And yes, so much has been happening that 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:06.159 we haven't had a chance to do. So Yeah to podcast. First, 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:11.039 we launched our daily podcast called Morning Run, and we're 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:13.400 now on our third week of doing it and we're 0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:15.359 getting into the groove. We're still for those of you 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:18.360 who've been listening, thank you, and we're tweaking it. We're 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.840 listening back and thinking what we can do differently or better. 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:24.640 And so I would actually encourage anybody to jump on 0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:28.040 our Instagram and let us know if you have any suggestions. 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:31.040 We mean that really you really would like to hear what. 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.120 You want to know. We're trying to give you all 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:37.080 a sense of what's happening and what has happened, and 0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:39.400 a little bit of our spin on it, but really 0:06:39.480 --> 0:06:42.080 just get you up to date. So when you're walking 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.080 into your place of work or you're on your run, whatever, 0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:47.599 you feel like you've got a good sense of what's going. 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:47.920 On in the world. 0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.000 Quick, easy and entertaining is what we're going for. But 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:52.560 that has been it has caused us. I again, we're 0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.039 going to get the schedule a little better, but we are. 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:57.080 We've been getting up at three in the morning, some 0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:00.800 of us later than others to get it all raided 0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:03.000 to rock. And we have been recording that thing essentially 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:06.279 from the dining table or from the bed, or from 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:10.120 the couch or from whatever at the house very early 0:07:10.120 --> 0:07:12.320 in the morning. Five am is when we record it, right. 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:14.360 And we're used to look, this is not this is 0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:16.880 something is in our wheelhouse. We actually love and have 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:19.720 missed being a part of the headlines and having a 0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:22.440 real a good sense of what's happening in the world. 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:27.920 But we were used to having a staff, a quite 0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:31.560 large one, and so now it's just the two of us, 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:35.080 and so we have had to This is a lot 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:37.440 of work, and we're excited about it, but it's we're 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:38.440 wearing a lot of hats. 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:40.560 Yeah, but at the same time, we are getting the 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:45.080 freedom to be how sometimes we were asked not to 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:46.800 be or to back it off a little bit. This 0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:49.280 is not we're not giving opinions, but we are still 0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:52.600 able to give perspective on in context to things that 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:55.760 we weren't able to do so necessarily in previous jobs 0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:58.000 we've had. And we're able to do it fairly quickly. 0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:00.320 This is not like we need so many and it's 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:02.800 or an hour to explain the story. It's boom boom boom. 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:05.400 And it again, to be in the daily news business, 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.160 quite frankly, is exciting to us. And so yeah, we 0:08:08.200 --> 0:08:09.960 appreciate folks have been checking it out so far. 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:11.720 Okay, you know, I was gonna say it very much 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:13.360 is and I think one of the cool things that 0:08:13.360 --> 0:08:16.040 we're kind of getting our head around now is look, 0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:21.640 media bias exists. Everyone comes into any sort of story 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:25.600 with an opinion or an experience. But I have always 0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:28.120 said we all have tried to be as objective as possible. 0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:31.120 The problem is when you choose what to cover. I 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:33.120 think that's where a lot of bias takes place, where 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:34.760 you know what you don't cover what you do cover. 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:36.600 So it's been pretty cool for us to be able 0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:38.960 to make our own rundowns, decide what we're going to 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:40.559 talk about and what we're not going to talk about. 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.439 And the other podcast, the second one, which has been fun, 0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:48.360 I do part two. Now, this is one where I 0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:51.400 mean it kind of it's right there in the title 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:55.200 right what it's about. But it's for folks who haven't 0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:58.160 didn't get it right the first time with the didn't 0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:00.520 marry a high school or a college sweetheart thing, worked 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:01.840 out the pick of fence and the dog and the 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:05.160 two kids, and it doesn't look like maybe on your 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.439 second marriage, maybe on your third marriage, maybe you had 0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:10.720 some difficulties, and most people have. But this is a 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.679 place in Broges. Please help me with the explanation. Here 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:15.959 we are going to with the help of a couple 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.800 of other hosts help people find love. 0:09:19.040 --> 0:09:22.120 We are we're doing that, and everyone who is a 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:24.720 part of this podcast has been down that road or 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:27.520 is currently walking down that road. So it's called I 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.680 Do Part two, but for some of us it's Part three, 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:32.640 Part four. You get the point. But we're all in 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:35.560 it together. And in addition to having our hosts, we 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.640 also have some celebrity mentors. I believe is what we've 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:40.880 landed on. It was either a. 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:43.680 Celebrity coach but who's also looking for love. 0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:47.200 And so we have asked listeners to call in, to 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:52.439 write in, to email in and see if you'd like 0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:56.120 us to help guide you on your journey to find 0:09:56.720 --> 0:09:57.120 the one. 0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:59.800 No, well, not us in particular necessarily. We do have 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.880 some professionals, if you will, I say professional in that 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:06.320 they have experience in this, and we are the hosts. 0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:10.319 Jenna Kramer and Jenny Garth. Jenny Garth both have their 0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:13.840 own life experiences and they didn't everything wasn't pretty and 0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:16.120 with a bou the first time around, so we are 0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:18.360 all in that position. Jenna Kramer is the other the 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:20.679 love this girl. She's We've gotten to know her a 0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:22.719 little bit and this is this is a compliment when 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:24.880 I say that she's nuts and right, she's just my 0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:26.800 kind of crazy. She's just I love this girl. 0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:30.280 In the best way. Posy who wants a boring person 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:33.920 to host a show with be friends with? I mean, no, 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:37.040 we're all in this. We're all we're all nuts, Let's 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:39.680 be honest, We're all certifiable. 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:42.120 Maybe that's why it's working. And but one of our 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:44.439 first that we had on our first. 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.880 Celebrity Coaches Celebrity Mentor Mentor. 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:52.640 We had to be introduced to Kelly beIN Simon from the. 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:54.680 Real Housewives of New York of New. 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:58.319 York My only my first introduction to her was watching 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:00.960 the show and watching what was the wet episode, the 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:04.640 scary Island episode Island. That was the first exposure I 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.640 ever had to Kelly ben Simone. So if you have 0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:10.880 seen that, you would know she's out of her mind. Well, 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:12.520 she's just in that episode. 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:15.559 I would just say she says she didn't have a filter. 0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:17.760 That might be the best way to put it, which is, 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.400 I actually appreciate people who don't have filters because you 0:11:20.400 --> 0:11:23.200 know exactly where you stand, and you know exactly where 0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:25.120 you stand with Kelly, and I appreciate that. 0:11:25.120 --> 0:11:28.480 I need filters. I need filters, But what I say, 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:30.400 I set it up that way to say this. She 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.440 came in here in the studio, she was the most pleasant, 0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:35.360 the light. We had such a good time with her, 0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:38.400 and we will see her again socially, and so she's 0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:42.800 just I just to see the show and to have 0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:46.320 that exposure to her that way the first time. You wouldn't. 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:48.640 Of course you're going to come to some kind of 0:11:49.240 --> 0:11:52.200 conclusion about her or have some opinion. And then she 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.600 walks in here, and we've been around enough people. We 0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:56.760 weren't being fool she wasn't putting on for us. She 0:11:56.840 --> 0:11:59.640 was being herself, and it was in such contrast necessarily 0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:03.120 to what we saw, and so I appreciated and enjoyed 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:04.320 the time we got with. 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:06.120 Yeah, she came in and said, Yeah, I get paid 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:09.480 to speak my mind. I get paid to sometimes be 0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:12.959 the mean girl. I've made a lot of money doing 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:16.040 what they want from me, and so I am always myself, 0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:18.920 but I know exactly why I'm there and what I'm delivering. 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:20.920 So I appreciated the real speak. 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:22.720 So she's going to be a part of But that 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:25.120 has been fun as well. That's something that's necessarily we 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:28.839 would normally be doing or think to do something like that, 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:31.360 But it is it's in our wheelhouse to a certain degree, 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:35.000 being open about where are your relationships and the mistakes 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:37.280 you've made, and how it's been and it hasn't been easy, 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:39.360 and where you are now and finding love and getting 0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:41.040 it right later in life, all those things. 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.720 Yeah, and so I think, and hopefully the goal is 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:45.760 that other folks out there who have been in that 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.560 exact same position. You don't have to have had your 0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:51.320 relationship woes splashed in headlines to still feel the pain 0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:54.680 and feel the frustration of not getting it right. So yes, 0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:57.080 we hope that you all, or at least some of 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:59.400 you listeners out there, will join in on the fun 0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:03.720 and up your hearts to possibly you know, I'm hoping 0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:08.040 we can have some pretty awesome matchmaking going on. Maybe 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:09.280 there could be a wedding or two. 0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:11.080 You want that responsibility, you want that you want, you 0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:12.920 want to love it, but I take it on. But 0:13:13.000 --> 0:13:14.320 do you want it? But it has to work out. 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:16.000 If things don't worry out, you will feel bad that 0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:18.439 you put these people you try. Well, there it is. 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:29.440 You said this early on the train. Actually here you 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:30.920 said that I was like, wow, that's a very good 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.599 point about where we were a year, a year and 0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:35.680 a half ago, thinking the world at end. It will 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:38.720 never everybody hates us, we'll never be able to work again. 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:42.280 We're hiding out in our apartments and to the point, 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:45.640 we are so busy right now that we can't. I mean, 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.600 we're barely above water without busy. And look we did 0:13:48.640 --> 0:13:51.960 we started up a production company together, which has been 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:55.200 a part of putting the original podcast together and the 0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:59.040 other podcasts together. But now we're starting to take meetings 0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:03.280 and develop project and be active with that now. And 0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:05.640 it's to your point, Babe, you said it. It's just 0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:09.280 to everybody out there, you think it's the end of 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:11.480 the world, and it's just not. You got to get 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:12.800 through whatever storm you're going through. 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:15.760 You know, you live enough life you will get stuck 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:18.080 at some point, and it doesn't have to be as 0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:22.240 dramatic necessarily as what happened with us. And please God, 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:25.400 yes I never wish that upon anybody. But it's always 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:28.880 this moment where you get this perspective and a year, 0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:30.600 a year and a half, two years of pass and 0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:32.560 you think, where was I even a year ago? And 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:34.360 look where I am now, and it's always just a 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:37.360 good reminder to know that you're not going to stay stuck. 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:40.440 It's going to get better. Things are going to change. 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:45.480 Change is inevitable, and that's a good thing when you're stuck. 0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.040 So yes, I was just thinking about a year ago. 0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:51.240 We were not going out socially, we were not feeling 0:14:51.240 --> 0:14:54.400 comfortable being out and about. We were just getting back 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:57.000 on social media and a little scared, not a little scared, 0:14:57.080 --> 0:15:00.800 a lot scared to get back out in the public. 0:15:00.840 --> 0:15:04.560 And so I just say, a year later, Wow, I'm 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:07.280 so happy to be this busy. I'm grateful to be busy, 0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:11.240 and we have a heck of a fall lined up 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:16.120 and I'm genuinely excited about it, like so excited. 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:19.760 We will be you folks in Athens. We will be 0:15:19.840 --> 0:15:22.600 on the University of Georgia campus this weekend for a 0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:25.600 game at Robox, alma mater of folks in Fayeville. We 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:28.880 will both see you there soon as well. We plan 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:31.960 to be recording to podcasts, a podcasts from each of 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:35.720 our respective campuses. That's fun. In between, there is a 0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:39.320 marathon we are going to be heading to Chicago to run, 0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:43.000 and then also in October maybe the most meaningful trip 0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:44.880 we are all going is that the end of October. 0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:46.160 Yeah, right, see end of October. 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:48.720 All right. We are all piling up in hen to Spain. 0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:54.720 Yes, TJ, my oldest daughter, Ava, and me all heading 0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:59.640 to Sabilla Seville. And honestly, I'm so excited because I 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:04.000 didn't want to push TJ in this direction because it violates, 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:07.760 it breaks some of his travel rules that he has 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:10.840 put in place. So there is no direct flight, there's 0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:15.320 a long ass layover, and it's going to be a 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:19.800 full day of travel. We aren't changing rooms when we 0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:21.760 get there. But it's a quick trip, but it's going 0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:23.280 to be a fun one. And I just want to 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:26.080 say thank you for bending bending your rules. 0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:30.880 All this is all analyse. I assure you, if we 0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:34.160 were going to see Ava, this wouldn't be happening. I'm kidding, Ava, 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:38.760 I'm kidding, Ava, I'm kidding. Okay, just a joke. 0:16:40.480 --> 0:16:43.840 She's happy to be along for the ride. She's fine, 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:44.920 She's not going to complain at all. 0:16:45.080 --> 0:16:47.880 Speaking of Ava, Ava is the reason that Robike and 0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:50.120 I are living together. We have been a lot of 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:54.120 people have been asking for a while about our living situation. 0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:54.800 We have. 0:16:56.680 --> 0:17:00.840 Our respective apartments are easily vocable, so we go back 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:02.960 and forth all the time. But we're together every single day, 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:07.000 every single night, essentially living together. Yes, okay, but now 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:09.800 it's beneficial for the last. 0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:13.840 Few weeks it has indeed, because Ava has an apartment 0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:17.600 in the village and it's a little grungy, but it 0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:20.120 should be. It's her first apartment, and it's a sixth 0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:24.080 floor walk up, and it's an old building. And yeah, 0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:28.560 it has a massive roach infestation, like a massive roach 0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:31.239 infestation that we have been trying to battle. I've been 0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:34.840 trying to help her out. We've gotten exterminators multiple times. 0:17:35.320 --> 0:17:38.199 I don't know how many raid camps. Raid cans have 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:40.840 been purchased. We've got roach motels all over the place. 0:17:41.000 --> 0:17:44.919 It's a small, small apartment if you can just envision this, 0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:50.359 but still she comes in every day. There are dozens 0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:53.320 and dozens of roaches in the roach motel every day, 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:58.679 and live ones in her bed, et cetera. Anyway, she 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:00.920 has a hoarter living next door. Guys, if you don't 0:18:00.960 --> 0:18:03.359 know about the squatters, he hasn't played paid rent in 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:06.280 six years and they can't get him out of the apartment. 0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:09.880 New York City is insane with their squatter laws, and 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:12.399 they have more rights than people who actually are on 0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:12.879 the lease. 0:18:13.200 --> 0:18:14.160 He's not on the lease. 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:17.000 I guess he got the apartment from his aunt who died, 0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:19.320 and now they can't get him out and he is 0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:19.720 a hoarder. 0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:22.320 Oh, that's a true story about New York laws. Here 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.240 it's if you don't know, go to Netflix and what 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:28.200 was it? Worst Roommate Ever is a series and there's 0:18:28.280 --> 0:18:30.520 one in there about a squad and explains the laws 0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:33.360 in New York. You cannot get a squatter out. It's 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:36.919 almost impossible. So what they're dealing with now is the 0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:39.320 building is not a terrible building. They just have a 0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:42.840 terrible neighbor who is hoarding things. And to the point, 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:46.480 it is so disgusting that you can see, and I'm 0:18:46.520 --> 0:18:51.720 not exaggerating, almost armies of roaches making their way from 0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:55.160 his apartment over to hers. It's that bad. 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:58.000 They can see the roaches coming underneath, and they've tried 0:18:58.040 --> 0:18:59.840 to stop the door, but they can see them coming 0:18:59.880 --> 0:19:01.840 out of Those things can flatten themselves out. 0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:02.800 They're prehistoric. 0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:05.359 But the worst was when they decided to finally say mom, 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:08.119 She and her roommate rye, can we come live with you? 0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:11.639 We can't live here anymore. They saw a steady line 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:14.359 of roaches coming out of his bathroom window, which was 0:19:14.480 --> 0:19:17.120 cracked open an inch and coming straight in through their 0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:19.359
