1
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: And I invited you here. I thought I made myself

2
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: perfectly clear. When you're a guest to my home, you

3
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guests,

4
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: your own presences presence enough. And I already had too

5
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: much stuff, So how do you dare to surbey me?

00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: Welcome to I said, no gifts, temperature wineger. We're here

7
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 2: in the studio, I believe, and I'm well. I haven't

8
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 2: looked at the emails enough to confirm this, but we'll

9
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 2: just assume. This is the first podcast of the year

10
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:09,120
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty six. Happy New year. How could we

11
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 2: possibly top twenty twenty five? It was perfect? I did

12
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 2: have the realization last night that one of the highlights

13
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 2: of last year for me was trying a new diet soda.

14
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: So how can you top that? How can you top

15
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 2: a pepsi zero peach? You know? So we'll move forward

16
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: into the year. I think something's going to happen this year.

17
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 2: I feel like something is going to happen that's going

18
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 2: to make us all so happy. So let's just keep

Speaker 2: Your own butter. I watched an episode that was just

51
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: a baseball game. Stop it.

52
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 3: Should you see when that girl drowned. I'm sorry, there's

53
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 3: a reason it was on for so long.

54
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 2: I'm in season two right now. But of course every

55

Speaker 2: the show will be eight episodes long to.

58
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 3: The film every two years.

59
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: Every time we checked in with them, they'd all be

60
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 2: a decade older. No, this is essentially reality TV. I'm

61
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 2: watching a documentary of these people in the where supposed

62
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 2: to be the Midwest. That's where they go to man Cato.

63
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 2: Often they go camping. What a group Nellie Olsen. What

64
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 2: this is my complaint? Yes, Nelly Olsen. They're often giving

65
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 2: the brother more lines. Willy Willie. Yeah, I was gonna

66
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: say Willie Olsen. Willy Nelson would make sense within this world.

67
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 2: Willie Olsen, I'm not as much of a fan of him.

68
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,800
Speaker 2: Nelly Olsen is the town brat. Yes, just let her

69
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: be the star of the show is my thing.

70
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 3: I mean she has the best clothes. Oh, she's immaculate,

71
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 3: she has the best hair. A doting mother, a doting

72
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 3: nasty mother. Nasty mother. But they're the merchantstile.

73
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: The price is exactly exactly. It's a very it's a

74
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 2: tough place to grow up.

75
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, not gentle time. No.

76
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 2: I just I saw an episode where they the gals

77
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 2: were on a runaway train. They got on a caboose

78
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 2: and it just less.

79
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 3: Sometimes that happens, you know how, Sometimes that just happens.

80
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 2: You're playing, you don't have.

81
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 3: To tell me. I think there's some like obsession. Did

82
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 3: you have an obsession with a kid.

83
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 2: As a kid to be like to live in a

84
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 2: box car? Did you ever read Box Car Children or

85
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 2: the sort of thing maybe that.

86
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 3: Box Car Children? No, but you know that was kind

87
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 3: of the preferred method to run away though you were

88
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 3: a kid is you would tie all your stuff in

89
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 3: a bandana, put it on a stick a bindle, walk

90
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 3: down to the train tracks and just jump on whenever

91
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 3: you could. And that seemed reasonable to.

92
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 2: All of us, right of course. Yeah, I tried to

93
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 2: run away from home at least twice. Really made it

94
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 2: as far as up the hill.

95
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 3: Uh huh.

96
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 2: I think it's more of an attention grabbing thing. Look

97
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,160
Speaker 2: at me. Pay a little more attention to me, or

98
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 2: you might lose me.

99
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 3: You might lose me. I know I have options out

100
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 3: in the world. What I'm in the first grade, and

101
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 3: I've got feeling and it's time people started to pay attention.

102
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 2: Right and I have the skill set to survive. So

103
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 2: try me, mom.

104
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't know if you've heard me play I'm a

105
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 3: little Teapot on the recorder or on the piano. But

106
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 3: I can make I can make a living for myself.

107
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 3: I can busk.

108
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: Or did you play piano as a kid.

109
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: I did?

110
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, Can you still play the piano with these nails?

111
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 3: Not really? But I still remember things that I because

112
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 3: I'm a little bit adhd. So I used to play

113
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 3: things for speed or just because I had to, like right,

114
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 3: you know, in the middle of whatever else I was doing,

115
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 3: I'd have to run in play something on the piano

116
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 3: really fast and run back out and do something else.

117
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 3: So I still have that sense memory right of how

118
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 3: to make those notes work right. But that's one of

119
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 3: the biggest regrets of my life is that I didn't

120
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 3: stick with it.

121
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,600
Speaker 2: It's same with me. I was just talking to somebody

122
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 2: about this where my parents threatened me constantly, you're going

123
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 2: to at this. Of course I didn't listen. And now

124
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 2: I can do about the same thing. I can like

125
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 2: sit down at the piano and annoy people.

126
00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 3: Annoy people.

127
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, is it too late?

128
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 3: You know? I just inherited an organ like a organ wow,

129
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 3: okay from.

130
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 2: Electric or pump electric? Oh my god.

131
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 3: And it's all I want to do is just sit

132
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 3: down and play. And now you really don't have an

133
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: excuse not to because you can get the headphones that

134
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 3: plug in, so no one has to be So no,

135
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 3: it's never too late if you're thinking about it, and

136
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 3: what a delight you would be at every party you

137
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 3: went to.

138
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 2: That's true.

139
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 3: It's a little bit.

140
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 2: I don't have any party tricks.

141
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 3: Well, you're going to get yourself a portable keyboard.

142
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: That right up.

143
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 3: I bought one for my mom.

144
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: It rolls up, it rolls.

145
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 3: Up, the keyboard rolls up, and you put it in

146
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 3: a little Duffel bag or something like that. It's very portable.

147
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 3: She can't stand it, so it might make its way

148
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 3: back to me like that. I didn't bring it for

149
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 3: you today.

150
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 2: So it's like a miniature version of what Tom Hanks

151
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 2: plays in big kind of yeah, kind of like a

152
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 2: plastic roll up. Yes, why did you play that for

153
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 2: your mom?

154
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 3: Because she needed to be able to practice. She still plays.

155
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 3: She was my original teacher.

156
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, now that's a there's some conflict of interesting.

157
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 3: Yes, it's not easy to take lessons from your mom,

158
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 3: right it really.

159
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 2: Is, or to pay her a weekly salary exactly, or.

160
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: You know, when she wants you to keep playing religious

161
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 3: hymns and you don't want that, you want to start

162
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 3: playing jazz.

163
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,959
Speaker 2: Of course, that's the biggest problem that every piano teacher makes. Yeah,

164
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: well maybe if it was a fun song to.

165
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 3: Play, Exactly, I don't want to play Fairest Lord Jesus,

166
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 3: you can play that. I'm never going I'm never going

167
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 3: to go anywhere where I will need to play this.

168
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 3: But thank you.

169
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 2: But now you have an organ? Yeah, is it huge?

170
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 3: It's not huge, but it it's a big right.

171
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 2: Those things are heavy.

172
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was not easy to get it into the house.

173
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 3: Let me say that it's not moving now.

174
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 2: And where do you have it in the house.

175
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 3: It's our living room that we call the gift shop

176
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 3: because that's where all the breakables are. Oh, I love that,

177
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 3: my glass collection and all my bullshit. You know, we

178
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 3: call it the gift shop.

179
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 2: So, oh, that's fantastic.

180
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 3: I U.

181
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 2: When I was in high school, I found an electric

182
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 2: organ at the thrift store and bought it for fifty

183
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 2: dollars and then somehow convince my parents to let us

184
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 2: bring it into the house. Yeah, and it was just

185
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 2: taking up a huge portion of the basement for me

186
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 2: to dick around on every few weeks. But I loved

187
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 2: the thing.

188
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 3: So you had to get that thing down down into

189
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,199
Speaker 3: the basement.

190
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 2: No exaggeration. It must have been three hundred pounds at least.

191
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:47,439
Speaker 2: Did you have to.

192
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 3: Break it up?

193
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 2: And they're also they're like, no, they're very wide, and

194
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: you know it's an unwheeldy object. Yes, the fact that

195
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 2: I asked anyone to.

196
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 3: Can it make samba sounds? Like? Does it have all

197
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 3: the difference?

198
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 2: It had? Like the little automatic switch and the drums.

199
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 2: I loved the drum machine on this thing. So funky,

200
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 2: Oh so funky.

201
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 3: Did you walk around like with a cocktail a mocktail

202
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 3: in your hand and some candy cigarettes being like hey everybody?

203
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 2: Well it played a waltz beat.

204
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 3: Oh.

205
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 2: It also had the little synthesizer at the top, which

206
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 2: I loved the sound of that thing. I wish I

207
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,719
Speaker 2: still had it. But how do you transport that? My

208
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 2: purse must have run it through a wood chip. Where

209
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 2: did it end up? Yeah?

210
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 3: Where did it end up? Did they just move houses?

211
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 2: And they moved there when I went to college, So

212
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 2: I don't know what happened to that thing.

213
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 3: Maybe they just included it with the sale, right, that.

214
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 2: Was the big bonus, get a fifty dollars organ from

215
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,599
Speaker 2: the seventies. I'm really jealous of you. What are you

216
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 2: going to do with your organ in the house? Are

217
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 2: you going to play it? Or is it just kind

218
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 2: of well.

219
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 3: It seems like that's what I should do with it,

220
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 3: But right now I just use it for decorations for like,

221
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 3: you know, say you have a pair of really elegant

222
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 3: severed hands from Halloween. Of course you're going to put

223
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 3: those on there.

224
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 2: You know. This is perfect for every holiday.

225
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a fun conversation piece. And my husband

226
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 3: bought an electric guitar at an auction recently that was

227
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 3: signed from Gerald Cassale from Devo. Oh my god, sits

228
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 3: next to it. So it seems like we're you.

229
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 2: Know right, you're the way to become the Doors. Basically

230
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 2: you just need I think drums and then you're the Doors.

231
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 3: Well I think my my organ has the drums, so

232
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 3: we're ready to be.

233
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:42,800

Speaker 2: It's a whole thing. Do you have you ever heard

317
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: of the band Waxahatchie?

318
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 3: Yes?

319
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 2: Okay, So she and her sister have been in various bands.

320
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 2: They're now in a new band. Mike is one of

321
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 2: their husbands. But I'm a fan of all of them independently.

322
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 2: But he's a little bit louder. Okay, they're not quite

323
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: as loud, so the audience I think was not quite

324
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 2: prepared to have somebody noisy. Okay, but he was having

325
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: the time of his life. He takes a ladder into

326
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: the audience and climbs up the ladder. I mean, he

327
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 2: does it all. There's a confetti cannon. The fact that

328
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 2: people weren't moving infuriating, so weird, it's very odd. You're

329
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: just it's uncomfortable to just stand there with your arms folded.

330
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 3: I mean, unless you're going to the symphony.

331
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 2: Right, if you're in a seat, okay, if you're standing,

332
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 2: if there's a beat and you're not moving, you're torturing.

333
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 3: You're something wrong with you.

334
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not natural.

335
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 3: It's not natural.

336
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I was an A plus student. I was moving,

337
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 2: I was shouting. I never shout words at what's happening on.

338
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 3: Stage, okay, never say smile.

339
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: I never shout a song request. Have you ever? Do

340
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 2: you ever do that? No? That to me is a

341
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 2: huge line crossed. You're not the manager of the show.

342
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 2: You're not running things.

343
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 3: You're not at a at a bar.

344
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 2: You're not at a bar. It's not a karaoke exactly

345
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 2: let them. You know, they've they have a set list,

346
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: they've prepared. They don't want to hear their number one

347
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 2: hit being you know, that's always the thing, it's their

348
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,679
Speaker 2: biggest song being yelled at them.

349
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,479
Speaker 3: How annoying, How annoying. I hate that.

350
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm a kind of the model concert goer.

351
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 2: I feel like you probably are too. Then there's always,

352
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 2: I think, one woman who's too drunk and she's upsetting

353
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 2: everyone because she's going too far.

354
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 3: Too far. I saw that once at a Squeeze show.

355
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,439
Speaker 3: So it was a Squeeze, You've got great taste of music,

356
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 3: Thank you, Squeeze and Haul and Oates.

357
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 2: Oh so I thought the show okay.

358
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 3: This woman was really feeling herself and it was maybe

359
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes in and she was already all lickered up

360
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 3: and a fistfight broke out because she wouldn't sit down.

361
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,440
Speaker 3: And this was right when things started opening back up again.

362
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,719
Speaker 3: So people were kind of fearal, like, I don't know

363
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 3: how to be in public anymore. I just know how

364
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 3: to watch things on a big screen and pause when

365
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 3: I have to go to the bathroom. Well you can't

366
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 3: do that in real life, you know. And You can't

367
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 3: look at something and move your fingers like this and

368
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 3: make it bigger, you know, or make someone sit down

369
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 3: or disappear. It was wow embarrassing to watch.

370
00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 2: Yes, did she was? She escort it out? No? Wow, amazing,

371
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 2: which was surprising, especially at the Bowl. It feels like, yeah,

372
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 2: there's some decorum there.

373
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure something else was happening somewhere else in

374
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 3: the arena, you know what I mean. Like it was

375
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,640
Speaker 3: it was so early into it that people were still

376
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 3: getting into their seats and blah blah blah. But yeah,

377
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 3: I was surprised that that went off the way it did.

378
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,199
Speaker 2: I guess if you're gonna have a fistfight, save it

379
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 2: for the beginning of the show and so we can

380
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 2: move on.

381
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

382
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 2: Have you ever come close to being in a fight publicly?

383
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 1: Yes?

384
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

385
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 3: Also at a concert. Well, here's the thing. If if

386
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 3: I spend money to sit in the first row, I'm

387
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,679
Speaker 3: sitting there. You're not sitting there. You don't know. This

388
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 3: is a thing that happens now at concerts where everybody

389
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 3: wants to come straight up to the front, turn around,

390
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 3: get their selfie, and they don't care where you are.

391
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 3: They just get in your space. A lot of times

392
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 3: they're rip raw and drunk. And just to give you

393
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 3: a little background, my husband has a deep brain stimulation device.

394
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, so.

395
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 3: It's right there at the top of his head, and

396
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 3: I'm always very much like gotta gotta say.

397
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 2: Right, of course, totally.

398
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 3: So when people start really getting in our business and

399
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 3: then they start storming the stage or just getting too

400
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 3: close because it's selfie time, it makes me uneasy. So

401
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 3: I start getting like, hey, huh, what I just say,

402
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 3: I really turn into a bitch. Don't come near my

403
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 3: you need to, Yeah, you're kind of forced to in

404
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 3: those situations, Like I'm starting to feel unsafe. Security has

405
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 3: been called. They can't keep you people back. I'm a

406
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 3: little unnerved.

407
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that is something coming out of the

408
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 2: pandemic that people have forgotten about personal space, like or

409
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 2: where their body is in space. That's something that really

410
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 2: sets me off is when my space is invaded by

411
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 2: someone who's just like not aware of others' existence exactly.

412
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 2: It's just immediately I'm at a ten. I'm not doing

413
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 2: anything about it. I'm just seeing. But there's something about

414
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 2: just please take a look around, just be slightly aware

415
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 2: of what's going on around you?

416
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 3: Exactly, Like, at no point should your hair be flipped

417
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 3: into my lipstick.

418
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 2: I do not want to taste anything on your scale exactly,

419
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 2: it's right right. I'll let you know when I want

420
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 2: to taste you. And that happens more often than you

421
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 2: would think.

422
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 3: Yes it does, Yes, it does well.

423
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 2: Anyway, speaking of invading space and not behaving yourself, I

424
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 2: was looking forward to having you here today.

425
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 3: Oh, thank you.

426
00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: When you'll come by, we'll have a nice chat. We'll

427
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 2: move on with our days. No hurt feelings, no boundaries crossed,

428
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 2: you know.

429
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 3: I certainly shan't across.

430
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 2: The podcast is called I said no gifts, and I

431
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 2: walk in today and I see you've got a gift.

432
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 3: Well that's really hard for me because gifts are my

433
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 3: love language. So I'm really sorry to disobey. Okay, but

434
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 3: I think you're gonna love what I got you, and

435
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 3: you better not start crying from emotion.

436
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 2: I can't make any promises. Well, I guess we'll open

437
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 2: it here on the post, all right? Okay? Is this

438
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 2: a beetle on this bag? Who is this?

439
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 3: I feel like that's Penny Marshall. Maybe it's from the

440
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 3: Gary Marshall Theater. But that has nothing to do with

441
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 3: the gift ins.

442
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,959
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, reaching it. It's just a bare Oh oh

443
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 2: it's larger. Oh I'm out of control right now trying.

444
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, is this hello Kitty brand toilet paper?

00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 3: It is?

446
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 2: It is.

447
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 3: It's something I like to get for all the men

448
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 3: in my life.

449
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 2: And you.

450
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: I poked a hole in the bottom so you can

451
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 3: smell it. Oh it's it smells like candy. Wow, it's

452
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 3: like strawberry.

Speaker 2: This is incredible? Where did this come from?

456
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 3: That came from Tokyo Central Grocery in Guardina What. I

457
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 3: don't know if you've ever been to that store. It

458
00:22:58,359 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 3: is such a treat.

459
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 2: What is it? A huge place.

00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,199
Speaker 3: I don't eat sushi, but people tell me it's amazing.

466
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 3: But weird little things.

467
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,359
Speaker 2: Like this, like this is amazing. How often are you

468
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:33,080

00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,120
Speaker 2: real Are you regularly buying Hello Kitty toilet paper?

474
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 3: Not often? Because I think it's probably not great for

475
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 3: you with that scent?

476
00:23:55,880 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 2: What an interesting thing to have a cinch fascinating.

477
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 3: But see look what you can do. You can break

478
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 3: that whole thing apart and give individual roles to your

479
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 3: loved one. Oh, very smart.

480
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 2: And I guess it can bring a scent to a bathroom. Yeah,

481
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 2: so it fills the bathroom with a strawberry scent. I

482
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 2: guess it's not so much as like for holding up

483
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 2: to your face as it is just a general.

484
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 3: Just a general like I'm Bridger, I'm awesome. Here's my

485
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 3: toilet paper. This is what I require.

486
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 2: Okay, did you get anything else while you were there?

487
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 3: Yes, we got those giant pairs that look like they're

488
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 3: wrapped in gauze.

489
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever had one of these.

490
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 3: Oh well, I would love to say that I've had one,

491
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 3: but he eats them all before I can get them home.

492
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 3: They have the best snacks, okay, that are good for

493
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 3: like stocking stuffers or whatever. In my family, we don't

494
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 3: buy each other gifts anymore. We just give like dumb

00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 3: of sheet masks Bridger so many sheep.

498
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 2: A particular sheet mask you like or are you just experimenting?

499
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 3: I am experimenting. But the thing is is they give

500
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 3: them to you in bulk. Oh so you're like, oh,

501

502
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 2: Sure I do.

503
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 3: Oh, here's one with fifty for the low low price

504
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 3: of seven bucks. I can't afford not to get it.

505
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: How often are you doing a face mask? You have

506
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 2: very nice skin and glowing thank you.

507
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 3: I also wear six pounds of makeup at all times.

508
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 3: But how often am I doing that?

509
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 2: Not?

510
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: Maybe once a week? I know some people do it

511
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 3: every day. That seems like a lot to me.

512
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, where are you finding the time?

513
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 3: When are you finding the time? That's what I want

514
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 3: to know with these people and their twelve step skincare thing.

515
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 3: How much can the dermis really absorb, right.

516
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 2: It makes no sense to me watch one of those things.

517
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 2: Like once a year, I'll be like, okay, I should

518
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 2: probably do something, and then I look them up and

519
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, this is a whole I have to

520
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 2: it's a career.

521
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 3: Yeah this. I have to start my bedtime ritual at

522
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 3: five thirty exactly, you know, and then lay perfectly still

523
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 3: all night.

524
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 2: I don't know how am I supposed to watch TV

525
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,920
Speaker 2: until the last possible minute if I have to start

526
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 2: doing my skin routine. It's forty steps long, and it's

527
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 2: often wet, so it's it seems difficult to me, but.

528
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 3: And requires so many like poking and prodding instagramt yeah, daily,

529
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 3: I can't imagine. Yeah, I can't imagine. Now how gorgeous

530
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 3: would we both be if we adhered to this exactly?

531
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 3: But you know what, I think we're pretty cute. You've

532
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 3: got amazing skin yourself. Clearly you are sunscreening.

533
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 2: Well I have to. Yeah, I mean this complexion. I

534
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 2: went through a lot of years of sunburns, and did

535
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 2: you I grew up in the nineties and early thousands

536
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 2: when h bing tan was where it was at. Yeah,

537
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,159
Speaker 2: and unfortunately it's just simply not an option for me.

538
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 1: It's not.

539
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: But there were many attempts you would try. There are

540
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 2: a lot of attempts.

541
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 3: Did you lay in a bed and a tanning bad?

542
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,320
Speaker 2: I have laid in a bed, Not enough for it

543
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 2: to be dangerous, But there were a couple of attemps

544
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 2: where it's just like someone should have stepped in, somebody

545
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 2: that was predatory on the part of the tanning.

546
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 3: Sell you the membership, they'll sell you the little card.

547
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 2: You should have to get a license. They should like

548
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 2: have to look at your skin and see if it'll

549
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 2: even take.

550
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 3: They should say to you with those blonde eyelashes, absolutely not, No,

551
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 3: you gotta leave.

552
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 2: You shouldn't even be able to be in the parking lotigs.

553
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 3: You need to have a parasol Yes, I.

554
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 2: Think I'm headed towards parasol territory.

555
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,160
Speaker 3: What's the downside?

556
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 2: What is the downside?

557
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 3: What is the downside? We do what we want these days.

558
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 2: Okay, it's a conversation piece. It's protecting you from u

559
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 2: V rays. Yeah, it doubles for when the rain comes. Yeah,

560
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 2: have you been to Japan?

561
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 3: I have, but it's been like thirty years.

562
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you've got to get back. I know, the

563
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 2: best place in the world. Yeah, it's just an absolute

564
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: dream at every turn. That's where I had this diet

565
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 2: soda I was talking about.

566
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 3: Tell me about your diet soda.

567
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 2: I drink.

568
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 3: My blood is mostly made up of diets.

569
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 2: So you're looking at just an entirely diet coke person.

570
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 2: This was a Pepsi zero peach and I can say

571
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,479
Speaker 2: this I'm not advertising it because it was a limited

572
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 2: edition not only time wise, but also to an area

573
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 2: of Japan. There was like a small part of like

574
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 2: Kyoto or something where they had this magic drink and

575
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 2: I just by chance try to thinking this will be horrible.

576
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 2: Changed my life really kind of for the worst because

577
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 2: now I can't have it, and I just I'll be

578
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 2: chasing that high for the rest of my life.

579
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:50,479
Speaker 3: But what I'm getting from this conversation is you were

580
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 3: in Japan recently.

581
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 2: Now That's what I'm trying to really bring up here.

582
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 3: Tell me about Japan. How long were you there?

583
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 2: I was there for ten days, okay, and spent most

584
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 2: of it in Tokyo and Kyoto. Oh my goodness, and

585
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 2: it's just for me. I've been there twice now. I

586
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 2: went there about ten years ago at the last spring,

587
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 2: and it kind of ruins traveling for you because you

588
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 2: just think, why would I go elsewhere when I can

589
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 2: go to Japan and just have a lovely, easy time

590
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 2: where things are endlessly fascinating. There's always something to look at,

591
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 2: so much good food. You never feel in danger, you

592
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 2: can just wander and be curious. It's my favorite place

593
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 2: in the world.

594
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 3: Even the grocery stores, yes, or just any little sundry shop.

595
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 3: You go in and you're going to find something that's

596
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 3: worthy of being taken home.

597
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Yeah, this is what I say. It's like I

598
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 2: feel like for Japanese people, it's probably boring to walk around,

599
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 2: but it's like I could just wander around a neighborhood.

600
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 2: That's essentially the equivalent of I don't know a neighborhood

601
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 2: in Ohio and I'm looking at everything and having a

602
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 2: good time, and it's just you know, like appliance stores, Yeah, what,

603
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 2: have you a nice time? The flight is difficult, right,

604
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 2: I can't be on a flight for more than about

605
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 2: forty minutes before I'm in agony. So for to be

606
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:13,160
Speaker 2: on it for twelve hours or something, oh oh thank you.

607
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 3: And then when you came home. There's like a re

608
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 3: entry period. You feel a little odd because you're.

609
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 2: Like feel insane. Yeah, because when you get there, there's

610
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 2: really no I really didn't have that much jet lag,

611
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 2: but the return it was like two weeks of hell.

612
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 2: Just waking up in the middle of the night, just

613
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 2: fully awake, ready to go on a walk. Very many

614
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 2: sleepless nights. So it's tough. Do you travel much?

615
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 3: I do mostly for work? Okay, sure, I hate being

616
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 3: on planes. I'm not scared, right, I just don't. I

617
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 3: just get so restless, and like I can't get comfortable,

618
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 3: even if it's the lay down bed or whatever. But

619
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 3: I can speak to the right. It's a long flight

620
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 3: thing of like, am I getting thrombosis? But wait, so

621
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 3: have you seen all these places in like rural Japan

622
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 3: where you can just buy a house that's been abandoned. No,

623
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 3: and they're cheap and you get everything that's in the house. Now,

624
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 3: that can be a nightmare. Sure it cannot also be

625
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 3: like a gold mine.

626
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 2: This is a horror movie. But buy a house fuld

627
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 2: of cursed objects.

628
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, hopefully they're not cursed, but yeah, they're like actively

629
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,959
Speaker 3: seeking people to come and take over these abandoned houses.

630
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 2: Why is that?

631
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's just that these places are

632
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 3: not populated enough.

633
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 2: And because there is in there population issue in Japan

634
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 2: of the aging population, not enough babies or something like that.

635
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 3: Right, But there's other places, like rural parts of Italy

636
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 3: where you can do the same thing. But something tells

637
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 3: me Japan might be easier to do that because the

638
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 3: work ethic is different. Oh sure, you know, so if

639
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 3: you need a repair man, they will show up, right.

640
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 3: It's suggestion that maybe I'll help with your plumbing at

641
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 3: some point.

642
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 2: You know, my boyfriend's Italian, so we can just say

643
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 2: they're a terrible people. Can't count on that Italian about that.

644
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: I just know they have a different way of living,

645
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: you know. Yes, I feel like Japan has maybe more

646
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 2: of an infrastructure for that kind of thing. But maybe

647
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 2: we're wrong. Maybe you just end up in a haunted

648
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 2: house in the middle of the Japanese countryside and you're

649
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 2: being you're screwed, terrorized by but the little girl from

650
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 2: the well the ring man.

651
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, well let's not look into that further.

652
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 2: H Do you feel like that it's something you would

653
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 2: enjoy moving into the rural countryside or that trive you crazy.

654
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 3: No, I don't think I could do it. I don't

655
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 3: think I could do it. We finally bought like a

656
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 3: little vacation place because we'd never had one, and that's

657
00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 3: in New Orleans. Oh, and that's about as far away

658
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 3: as I'm comfortable owning something, right, you know what I mean,

659
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 3: And it's small. I don't want a big thing that

660
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 3: I have to worry about, you know. And I don't

661
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 3: want to air and b airbnb anything. So this was

662
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 3: a situation that came up that made absolute sense, and

663
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 3: that's great, But I don't think I could own something

664
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 3: in another country.

665
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 2: How often you going to New Orleans?

666
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 3: Gosh, whenever we can. We're not on a set schedule

667
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 3: and it all depends on like what I have to

668
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 3: do work wise. But I wanted to go for Christmas

669
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 3: this year. But it looks like they've got a lot

670
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 3: of the French Quarter torn up and that's where renovation, yeah,

671
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 3: big street renovation. Nothing they do makes any sense. But

672
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 3: it is a fun place to go.

673
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 2: What never been. There's a couple American cities where I

674
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 2: just for whatever reason, have never been that I'd really

675
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 2: like to go to. But there's never a real reason. Yeah,

676
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 2: and I don't drink, okay, and good for you. No,

677
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 2: it's neither good nor bad. It's just something I don't do.

678
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 2: It's I'm not interested in drinking. So it's like, I

679
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 2: know that is part of the experience and just kind

680
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 2: of a party atmosphere. But I imagine there are other

681
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 2: things to enjoy. The food is probably wonderful.

682
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 3: See, I don't eat shellfish, so the food is not

683
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 3: really I know I'm saying something really sacrilegious here. But

684
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 3: I'm a music person. Oh okay, so that's my thing

685
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,399
Speaker 3: because I mean the minute you walk out the door

686
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 3: in the morning, music's playing. There's a brass band playing,

687
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 3: so well, it's like living in the middle of Disneyland,

688
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 3: you know the dream. Yeah, or there's people dancing down

689
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 3: the street or some random parade. It's just a really

690
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:03,399
Speaker 3: fun atmosphere. And the history is nuts, right.

691
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 2: And then I'm sure I would love to go on

692
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 2: a ghost tour. I would love to go on a

693
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 2: swamp tour. These are things that appeal to me. Yeah,

694
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 2: I guess I just have to say that's where I'm

695
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 2: going on vacation.

696
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 3: Yes, definitely.

697
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 2: How many days is right, for it feels vagacy in

698
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 2: a way where it's like it might be a lot,

699
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 2: you know, like you don't need to be there for

700
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 2: a long time.

701
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 3: I'd say four or five days, okay, you know, and

702
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 3: then and then all that energy kind of gets to you,

703
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 3: right and you're like, okay, it's time to go back,

704
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 3: and you know, get out of this little bubble. But

705
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 3: it is a fascinating place.

706
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 2: Have you been on a swamp tour? Yes? Did you see? Yes? Yeah? Terrifying. Well,

707
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 2: you know there's.

708
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 3: The Honey Island swamp, which is what they photographed to

709
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 3: use in the Princess and the Fraud. Okay, sure, actually

710
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 3: beautiful as swamps go. But you know it's on the Gulf,

711
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 3: so that brackish water. You could get a bull shark

712
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:04,440
Speaker 3: in there. Well, it's Louisiana. People are just built different.

713
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 3: A shark and a swing shark, and a gator, maybe

714
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 3: some snakes. It's like, okay, well I don't want any

715
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 3: of them, Like I want to look at these things

716
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 3: from a distance. Please don't take me near a bull shark. Wow.

717
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 2: Please.

718
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,399
Speaker 3: If you're telling me a snake is going to drop

719
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,319
Speaker 3: from those trees, we're not going near those trees, of course,

720
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 3: But I saw we were on a swamp tour and

721
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:31,200
Speaker 3: this they some places they give you marshmallows to throw

722
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 3: to the gators. Other places will give you like a

723
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 3: protein ball, some weird.

724
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:37,839
Speaker 2: Pro marshmallow doesn't make a ton of sense for gator bait,

725
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 2: but who am I to say?

726
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 3: They love them. They have a sweet tooth, which also

727
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 3: makes them diabetic if you feed them too many marshmallows.

728
00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 3: Just like with people, you don't want to do that.

729
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 3: But this man said, oh, can I have one of

730
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 3: those protein balls. He opened it up and put the

731
00:36:56,040 --> 00:37:01,320
Speaker 3: ashes of his dead best friend and fed it to

732
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 3: a gator because she was such a gator person. That

733
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:09,720
Speaker 3: is what she wanted. So he carried out her last

734
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 3: wishes on this tour. And it was kind of like, God,

735
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 3: that's so weird, but also what a good friend.

736
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 2: Very sweet, And now I have a way I want

737
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 2: to be disposed of, maybe not even as ash. Just

738
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 2: throw my body at the swamp, just let the alligators

739
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,279
Speaker 2: go crazy with me. That should be a thing.

740
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 3: That should be a thing. If that's what you really want,

741
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 3: you should have it.

742
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 2: You should have it.

743
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 3: Also, I'm thinking that's a good business.

744
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 2: To go into right, kind of like mortuary slash alligator

745
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 2: feeding farm. The bodies just get taken out to the

746
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 2: swamp and launched in there and then the alligators go nuts.

747
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 3: Here we go, another brilliant business ideas.

748
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm challenger the amount of millionaires. This podcast has

749
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 2: launched the listeners. Hopefully they're listening and you know, taking

750
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 2: this advice. Somebody in New Orleans right now is saying

751
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,360
Speaker 2: I need Yeah. Here it is, go to mortuary school

752
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 2: and buy a swamp boat. Yeah, maybe a catapult. You're

753
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 2: in business. I love this. I feel like that's a

754
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 2: totally fine thing to ask for. Well, Ash in a ball,

755
00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah did he Did he have to ask permission or

756
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 2: they just.

757
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 3: Well he did say hey, this is what I'm going

758
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 3: to do, okay, because.

759
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 2: He's got a gun and he's telling everybody, yeah, this.

760
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,480
Speaker 3: Is you know, this is what I'm about to accomplish here.

761
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,480
Speaker 3: And I did get it on video because I just

762
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 3: couldn't believe what I was seeing, like that. That is

763
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,360
Speaker 3: the last thing in the world I thought I was

764
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 3: going to see that day, But it really was like,

765
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 3: that's so weird. But your weird friend wanted that, and

766
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:45,880
Speaker 3: you made sure she got it.

767
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 2: God, does you know, do you have any preference about

768
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 2: when you die? Cremation or burial, whatever's easiest. That's kind

769
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 2: of how I feel. You know, nobody spent any time

770
00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 2: or money.

771
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 3: Just be done with it, don't drag it out. That's

772
00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 3: that's the one of the saddest things when when you're

773
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,719
Speaker 3: when someone you know passes and then well we got

774
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 3: to do this, and then we gotta have a big, long,

775
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 3: you know, period of this, and so and so can't

776
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 3: come in for a month, so we got to hold off.

777
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 3: And it's like God to prolong that goodbye. Yes, when snappy,

778
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 3: just make it snappy.

779
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 2: That's a good idea of the name for the funeral home.

780
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 2: Make it snappy, and the alligators are snapping. This is

781
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 2: all coming together, truly, what a package.

782
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 3: I love this so much. What if you just like

00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:49,400
Speaker 3: if you had like a mortuary that was on stilts

785
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 3: near the swamp, you just launch them right out the

786
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 3: back door.

787
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 2: Everyone say you're good bye, make it snappy.

790
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is this business concept that this podcast has

Speaker 3: It bites.

794
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 2: Maybe there are just too many words for uh, succeeding

795
00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 2: that have to do with biting. Yeah, snappy bite interesting,

796
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 2: but make it snappy. Funeral home, New Orleans coming, give

00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 2: me three years, probably a few permits I have to

798
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 2: get through or whatever. Probably probably how long does it

799
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 2: take to go to mortuary school?

800
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 3: I don't know. But then you got to you got

801
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 3: to construct the right you.

802
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 2: Know, right, the right structure, structure.

803
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 3: There will be some hurricanes between now and then.

804
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 2: We tell what do you do during hurricane season? I

805
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 2: guess you just throw them into the hurricane.

806
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 3: And then they end up where they end up on

807
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 3: top of somebody's house. Probably, yeah, which is fine at

808
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 3: that point, it just doesn't matter her.

809
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:04,880
Speaker 2: Oh are you much of a Hello Kitty person?

810
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:09,840
Speaker 3: Not really? Not really. Growing up, I wanted to be

811
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 3: a Hello Kitty person, but my parents would not buy

812
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 3: me that stuff, right right, so, uh, you know they

813
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:20,440
Speaker 3: were they were very smart about, hey, we're not buying

814
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,919
Speaker 3: you barbies because that's taken us down a road of expensive.

815
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,879
Speaker 2: That you wanted. Then suddenly accessories galore.

816
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 3: Exactly same with Hello Kitty.

817
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:31,359
Speaker 2: So what were they getting you into?

818
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:39,959
Speaker 3: They liked learning based things, and once I started taking

819
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:45,439
Speaker 3: dance classes, it was all about that. Right, you're a dancer, Well, sure,

820
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,959
Speaker 3: what kind of I was for a long time? Okay,

821
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 3: I was for what sort of dancing?

822
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 2: Were you doing?

823
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,080
Speaker 3: Jazz and ballet? Because my sister and I grew like

824
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 3: really fast, so we were just these giant, gangly girls

825
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 3: that have no grace whatsoever. So my parents were like, well,

826
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:03,960
Speaker 3: we got to fix this.

827
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 2: We got to beat it into them. We gotta do

828
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 2: something via tap.

829
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,359
Speaker 3: Tap dancing that'll bring it all together. No, but they

830
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 3: put us in ballet, and then it kind of stuck

831
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:17,640
Speaker 3: and we did.

832
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 2: How long did you do dance? Like into high school

833
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 2: or was it into my thirties? Wow? That's that's the

834
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 2: way I.

835
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 3: Went to Japan. Was I was on a tour, a

836
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 3: dance tour.

837
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 2: We've really buried the lead here.

838
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 3: Well it's not that exciting now, but.

839
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exciting to me.

840
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:36,839
Speaker 3: You were dancing in Japan, in Japan in nineteen ninety two,

841
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 3: Oh my god, yeah, all around. I mean, I'm glad

842
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 3: I got to go to Japan that way, of course,

843
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 3: because I didn't have to pay for anything and getting paid. Yeah,

844
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 3: and I got to see a lot of the country, right,

845
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,080
Speaker 3: you know, was our show good?

846
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:51,400
Speaker 2: No?

847
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 3: It sucked. I'm embarrassed when I look at the pictures.

848
00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,200
Speaker 3: But that's okay because we didn't have phones then, so

849
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 3: the footage doesn't live anywhere. And yeah, I had a

850
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,240
Speaker 3: lot of fun memories.

851
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,840
Speaker 2: What was the show? Like? What were they advertising it in?

852
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 3: So it was like a Latin review. So you're looking

853
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 3: at me going, yes, I see why you were was

854
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 3: the big assumption exactly. But this was the summer of

855
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 3: the Olympics in Spain, okay, so it was like a

856
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 3: Spanish a little taste of Spain exactly. So we had

857
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 3: you know, we did Spanish themed numbers. A vocalist that

858
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 3: sang it is very stupid.

859
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 2: So have you dressed in.

860
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 3: Let's see, like you know those big mambo rough that

861
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 3: you wear on your arms, okay, and like a bikini

862
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:50,680
Speaker 3: looking thing or horrible just horrible little outfits, terrible, terrible

863
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 3: and those shiny, ugly ass tights that people are wearing

864
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 3: now of course that are like like the color of

865
00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 3: your diet coke. But put them on a fair skin person.

866
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 3: It's fine, you know, and they make your legs look

867
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 3: chunky because they're shiny, and for some reason, every pop

868
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,160
Speaker 3: star now is wearing those shiny ugly tide.

869
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 2: That's one of those fashion choices where you're like, we

870
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 2: all know now and it doesn't look good. Yeah, in

871
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 2: ten years, it's going to look even worse. You're gonna

872
00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 2: be looking at the video and photos and being like,

873
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 2: I knew even then it was the bad choice to make.

874
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,800
Speaker 3: I knew I shouldn't have been hip hop dancing in

875
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,760
Speaker 3: a majorrette uniform, but I did it anyway.

876
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 2: And look where you are now.

877
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 3: Look where you are now, Miss Lopez.

878
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 2: Were there big audiences for these shows?

879
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 3: Sometimes?

880
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 1: Wow?

881
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 3: So like sometimes we would perform in these beautiful clubs okay,

882
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,239
Speaker 3: you know, had bandstands, maybe look like Ricky Ricardo might

883
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 3: come out, you know, beautiful. And then other times it

884
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:53,359
Speaker 3: was like, wait, is this a pizza hut at four

885
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:58,280
Speaker 3: in the afternoon, but or you know, like a beautiful

886
00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 3: hotel ballroom or something like that, And then yeah, how

887
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,919
Speaker 3: long were you in Japan for the tour? Lasted about

888
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:06,279
Speaker 3: a month?

889
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 2: Okay, you know, so dream trip it was really fun. Wow, Yeah,

890
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,799
Speaker 2: I feel like you should do a revival. The next

891
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 2: time you set put in Japan should be on another

892
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 2: dance tour. I'll do it. You to come with me.

893

Speaker 2: I'll dance. Yeah, I'll learn, learn a few numbers. You'll learn.

897
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 3: Get a few eight counts together, that's all it takes.

898
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:37,879
Speaker 2: Yes, you and I do a taste of Spain too.

00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 3: Yes, Oh god, I love this. We're going to sing?

00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:50,360
Speaker 3: Oh god, Oh well, I just I just messed that up.

901
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 3: I don't know.

902
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 2: We'll work on it. We've got a workshop scenes details.

903
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 3: Certainly our friends and family will want to weigh in.

904
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, as they do they do. Well, is

905
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:02,839
Speaker 2: there anything left we have to say about Hello, Kitty

906
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 2: Strawberry toilet paper?

907
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 3: Just that you should enjoy every square of that. Don't go,

908
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 3: you know, toilet papering someone's house. Yes, we did.

909
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:17,720
Speaker 2: We did. What a thrill?

910
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 3: What a thrill?

911
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:20,280
Speaker 2: What a harmless thrill?

912
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:22,719
Speaker 3: I mean you know what else we did too, is

913
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 3: we would spray paint the driveways. We did this people.

914
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 3: It is such vandalism. But when we were in high school.

915
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 3: This is the eighties. For some reason, in our school district.

916
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,400
Speaker 3: This is what everybody did. You would go out in

917
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 3: the middle of the night, one of your little seventeen

918
00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 3: year old friends with a Volkswagen square back would cram

919
00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 3: ten people in and you would spray paint the stencil

920
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 3: of whatever club you were in.

921
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:54,399
Speaker 1: Oh.

922
00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 2: Interesting, So I was.

923
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,320
Speaker 3: I was in you know, dance, and I was a

924
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 3: cheerleader and all this so still in front of my parents' house,

925
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 3: we have those stencils. Wow, you know, or water Polo

926
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 3: eighty seven in the apron of your driveway.

927
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,280
Speaker 2: The dor kiest version of graffiti possible.

928
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 3: So stupid. And we also had fraternities and sororities in

929
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 3: my high school. In high school, yes, not sanctioned by

930
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,719
Speaker 3: the school, but they still did it. But they had

931
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 3: their own stencils, and so you would, you know, just

932
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 3: muck up the entire block.

933
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 2: What a stencil centric education, I know. Interesting. Yeah. Yeah,

934
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:34,279
Speaker 2: toilet papering is as far as we ever got. But

935
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 2: I'd love to do that again, but I feel like

936
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:38,960
Speaker 2: once you get past eighteen, you can be arrested and

937
00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:40,280
Speaker 2: then it becomes a real issue.

938
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:46,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also because we went through the toilet paper shortage, you.

939
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 2: Know, a little precious about I kind of am with

940
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 2: certain like there are certain things I'll see in my cupboard.

941
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 2: It's like a food. It's like probably going to expire

942
00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 2: or has been expired, and I think I'll just leave

943
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 2: it there just in case, in case, in case, there's

944
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 2: a run on the grocery stores. It's a terrible feeling.

945
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 3: That's a drum of balsamic vinegar from twenty ten. Now,

946
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,919
Speaker 3: if I know my vinegars, it just gets better.

947
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, So well, hang on to it.

948
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:20,400
Speaker 3: I'll put it down in the basement next to the organs,

949
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 3: because you see, that's how we're tying it all together.

950
00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,360
Speaker 2: Well, I think we should play a game. We're going

951
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:28,840
Speaker 2: to play a game called Gift or a Curse. But

952
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,360
Speaker 2: I need a number between one and ten from you. Four. Okay.

953
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 2: I have to do some light calculating to get our

954
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:37,239
Speaker 2: game pieces. So right now, you can promote, recommend, do

955
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 2: whatever you want. I'll be right back.

956
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:44,120
Speaker 3: Okay. So Hi, everybody, it's Wendy McClendon Covey, and I

Speaker 2: Fun So and it's a good show. Fun you comedy.

964
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 2: What a nice thing to have on television, A novelty

965
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 2: to have comedy. Yeah, Okay, this is how we play

966
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 2: Gift or a Curse. I'm going to name three things.

967
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 2: I'm going you'll tell me if there are a gift

968
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 2: or a curse and why, and then I'll tell if

969
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 2: you're right or wrong. So there are correct answers. People

970
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:30,120
Speaker 2: have failed before it's ruined their lives, so just be

971
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 2: very careful, all right, all right? This first one is

972
00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 2: from a Patreon listener named Corey. Gift or a Curse

973
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 2: seasonal color analysis.

974
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:43,880
Speaker 3: That is a curse. And I'll tell you why I

975
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 3: had my colors analyze back when this nonsense started, which

976
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:50,280
Speaker 3: was the early eighties.

977
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 2: I am a summer okay.

978
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 3: Okay, do you know how hard it is to find

979
00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:01,880
Speaker 3: colors in that palette without dragging the damn book with

980
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 3: you everywhere? Okay?

981
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 2: What colors are in the summer?

982
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,600
Speaker 3: Okay, so summer you're not supposed to wear black?

983
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:09,080
Speaker 2: Okay.

984
00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 3: Well, well, I'm sorry, but that is the cornerstone of

985
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:12,560
Speaker 3: my life.

986
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 2: And everyone looks good in black.

987
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:19,160
Speaker 3: Pretty much except summers should be wearing navy blue.

988
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 2: Oh interesting, But I'm not going to.

989
00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 3: Be told that I can't wear navy or that I

990
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 3: can't wear black, and that I don't look good in it.

991
00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 3: Shut up, there it is. I mean, look, when you

992
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 3: see someone having their colors analyzed, you can see their

993
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,759
Speaker 3: face perk up or blanch out when you hold up

994
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,880
Speaker 3: certain things. Oh interesting, but it's just another thing to

995
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,759
Speaker 3: obsess about. It's it's right up there with counting your

996
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:51,120
Speaker 3: steps and counting your macros. It's just one more thing

997
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 3: to obsess over.

998
00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:53,680
Speaker 2: Did you go to a consultant?

999
00:50:54,640 --> 00:50:58,840
Speaker 3: No, once again, my mother did it. She bought the

1000
00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 3: book called Color Beautiful. Okay, and it gives your charts okay, okay,

1001
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 3: And so you're supposed to take it with you shopping.

1002
00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:11,160
Speaker 2: Come on, you're supposed to take it to every shopping trip. Yes,

1003
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:13,279
Speaker 2: that's so unreasonable.

1004
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 3: It's unreasonable.

1005
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:16,560
Speaker 2: I wonder what season I am.

1006
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:20,480
Speaker 3: Oh, you are such an autumn. It's not funny.

1007
00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,879
Speaker 2: Okay, Yes, what does that say for me color wise,

1008
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 2: So you are gonna go with a.

1009
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 3: Yellow based red not a blue based red.

1010
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:37,120
Speaker 2: Okay, interesting because you have red hair. Okay, that's good

1011
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 2: to know.

1012
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:43,080
Speaker 3: So yellow or orange based things are your jam. Probably

1013
00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 3: dark brown is your black? Oh?

1014
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,759
Speaker 2: Interesting? I feel like green works for me?

1015
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 3: Is that a yellow based green? Probably does, but not

1016
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 3: a blue based.

1017
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 2: Stay away from blue based, yeah, because they probably make

1018
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 2: me look like a corpse.

1019
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:02,560
Speaker 3: Yes? Interesting, Yes, and it'll make people want to throw

1020
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:04,400
Speaker 3: you into the gator pe.

1021
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:08,960
Speaker 2: Well, maybe that's the plan, Wendy.

1022
00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,239
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, am I wrong? Or am I right? Is

1023
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:12,400
Speaker 3: this a blessing oracle?

1024
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 2: You're correct. It's a curse, as you've just demonstrated. It's

1025
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 2: it's immediately wrong because everybody can wear black, and everybody

1026
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 2: wants to be a little goth. So if you try

1027
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:30,600
Speaker 2: to rule out black, any color is wrong, but that

1028
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 2: should be. Everyone should have a few black pieces in

1029
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 2: their more trobe. And I don't want to think about it.

1030
00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:39,560
Speaker 2: I don't want to carry a catalog to that. Don't

1031
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:43,359
Speaker 2: tell me what to buy. Let me find out how

1032
00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 2: awful I look in a color that'll be a surprise.

1033
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:49,280
Speaker 2: Let me wear it out in public and have people gasp,

1034
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 2: look away, and then I start. That's good feedback. That's good,

1035
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:59,280
Speaker 2: honest human feedback, not book feedback. So it's a curse.

1036
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 2: I don't need anyone to tell me what season I am.

1037
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 2: Let me choose. Yes, I'm a deep winter okay. Number two.

1038
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,479
Speaker 2: This is from a picture on the surnamed Alice gift

1039
00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 2: her a curse. The toilet with the big and little

1040
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,160
Speaker 2: flush buttons dependent on contents of the toilet.

1041
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 3: I hate those. It is a curse. Why just always

1042
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 3: use the big one because that little one doesn't do anything?

1043
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 3: That little one sometimes wouldn't even take one square of

1044
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:38,360
Speaker 3: Hello Candy toilet paper down. No, no, it's got to

1045
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:43,400
Speaker 3: be the button, always as a courtesy for the next person.

1046
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 2: Correct, yes, thank you, No one uses that. Nobody ever

1047
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,960
Speaker 2: obeys the little button. No, why would you use the

1048
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:54,399
Speaker 2: little button?

1049
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,440
Speaker 3: And aren't you really just pressing them both? Right?

1050
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:00,640
Speaker 2: Do I have to read a book on how to

1051
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:01,359
Speaker 2: use this thing?

1052
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 1: I don't.

1053
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:05,320
Speaker 2: I don't need to think about the toilets. Yeah, the

1054
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:08,839
Speaker 2: contents of the toilet are not the toilet's business. Yeah

1055
00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:10,840
Speaker 2: you know, I will just push the big buttons and

1056
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 2: make it all away.

1057
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 3: No one's ever.

1058
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,359
Speaker 2: Using a little button. No one's that responsible, and if

1059
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:19,040
Speaker 2: they are, there again probably making mistake for the next

1060
00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:21,239
Speaker 2: person who's using it. There should be no room for

1061
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:22,360
Speaker 2: error in toilets.

1062
00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,839
Speaker 3: And if someone's gifting you a toilet, I don't want

1063
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,080
Speaker 3: to know why. I don't want to know.

1064
00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 2: What's wrong you I mentioned getting a toilet as a gift.

1065
00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:32,719
Speaker 2: I can't. It's a tough one.

1066
00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 3: How do you How do you bluff your way through that?

1067
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:39,320
Speaker 2: Thank you? You know? How do you move on?

1068
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 3: Although I would, I will say there is a store

1069
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:46,280
Speaker 3: in New Orleans that sells these beautiful customized toilet seats.

1070
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,759
Speaker 2: Really what sort of toilet seats? Like?

1071
00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:54,720
Speaker 3: Do you want your favorite singer airbrushed on a toilet

1072
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 3: seat the way you might on the side of a van,

1073
00:54:58,600 --> 00:54:59,400
Speaker 3: very swanky.

1074
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 2: Have you bought any No, not yet, not yet. There's

1075
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:10,520
Speaker 2: nothing that makes a bathroom feel dirtier than a toilet

1076
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 2: seat that's not just a white toilet sea.

1077
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like it needs to be a pristine white

1078
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,319
Speaker 3: toilet seat, maybe with a fluffy little cover.

1079
00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:27,640
Speaker 2: Absolute playground for disease. Yeah, bacteria everywhere. Okay, you've gotten

1080
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:29,759
Speaker 2: two rights, so far, very good. Finally, this is from

1081
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,480
Speaker 2: a listener named Adrian gift her a curse. When couple

1082
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:35,280
Speaker 2: say we're pregnant, that is a curse.

1083
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:42,680
Speaker 3: Why that is so gross? We're pregnant.

1084
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no, wrong, No, this is

1085
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:55,279
Speaker 2: a gift, Wendy, This is an absolute gift. We all

1086
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 2: know that both partners are doing the exact amount of

1087
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:00,240
Speaker 2: work within this pregnant.

1088
00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:04,720
Speaker 3: You're right, said the childless woman.

1089
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 2: The childless man. You're right. I see the thing to say.

1090
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,439
Speaker 2: I think that every couple should say we're pregnant. Every

1091
00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 2: couple should share a social media account. Totally healthy, totally normal.

1092
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:27,239
Speaker 3: They should wear the same pajamas. They should wear matching pajamas.

1093
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:31,760
Speaker 3: I'm not saying matching and saying same, like in tandem.

1094
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:32,080
Speaker 2: It's like.

1095
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:38,800
Speaker 3: Jamas tandem jammas again. Yeah, here we've got a new idea. Oh, Jams,

1096
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:40,080
Speaker 3: we're so inspirational.

1097
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:43,160
Speaker 2: I know, I know. Unfortunately you're not because you got

1098
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 2: that one wrong and you've only got two out of three. Right,

1099
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 2: that's got to sting a little bit. It does. Well,

1100
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,520
Speaker 2: you'll learn eventually, you'll learn, all right. This is the

1101
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,480
Speaker 2: final segment of the podcast. People are writing into I

1102
00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:59,080
Speaker 2: said no gifts at gmail dot com. They're begging for answers.

1103
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 2: We help me answer question, all right, Hello bridger and

1104
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:05,840
Speaker 2: fabulous guest. That's nice. A dear friend of mine is

1105
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:09,279
Speaker 2: getting married and is the anti bridezilla. For example, there

1106
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 2: will be no bridesmaids because she doesn't want anyone to

1107
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:15,319
Speaker 2: feel obligated to wear a certain outfit, plan a bachelorette party,

1108
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,640
Speaker 2: or generally spend any extra money or time on anything.

1109
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:21,880
Speaker 2: Here is the conundrum. Her family has decided to throw

1110
00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:24,560
Speaker 2: her a bridal shower against her will, and our group

1111
00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 2: of friends is invited. She texted us to say that

1112
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:29,920
Speaker 2: if we brought a gift, we would be uninvited to

1113
00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 2: the wedding. Ooh, and that us acting as a buffer

1114
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 2: between her and her family was gift enough, much like

1115
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 2: your guest own. Now they're putting something on you. We

1116
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 2: plan on disobeying this order and getting a collective gift.

1117
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 2: The ideal gift is something silly but maybe still useful

1118
00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:47,480
Speaker 2: to split between four people. So far, our only idea

1119
00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 2: is a bidet. Now we're getting to toy that territory,

1120
00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 2: so we would appreciate any suggestions you have. The bride

1121
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:56,200
Speaker 2: loves crafting, baking, and her cat thinks in advance, that's Miranda.

1122
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:58,919
Speaker 2: So Miranda's friend is a giant pain in the ass.

1123
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,560
Speaker 2: She wants it all, she doesn't want it all. She's

1124
00:58:02,600 --> 00:58:07,120
Speaker 2: making demands of friends and family. Were you a bridezilla?

1125
00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 3: I wasn't, But I've been in a lot of weddings.

1126
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:12,520
Speaker 3: I've been in a lot of weddings.

1127
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:13,960
Speaker 2: So you've probably seen all sorts of behavior.

1128
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:16,320
Speaker 3: Yes, this person is.

1129
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:19,880
Speaker 2: They just want a nice gift to split. The cost

1130
00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,720
Speaker 2: will be split between four people for their friends, who

1131
00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 2: they obviously don't really like that much. She's writing in

1132
00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 2: a nasty email about the friend to a podcast, so

1133
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 2: we know that they're not that close. And there's this

1134
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 2: weird emotional situation with the family inviting them to a

1135
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 2: thing that that bride doesn't want. There's probably going to

1136
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 2: be a fight at the party or the wedding. Yeah,

1137
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:49,520
Speaker 2: so what do you do to kind of smooth things over?

1138
00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:53,080
Speaker 2: Is my question? The but day, I don't know that

1139
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:54,040
Speaker 2: that's a great gift.

1140
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 3: No one wants you to buy them that.

1141
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:59,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody wants When someone's opening that at the party,

1142
00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:02,320
Speaker 2: then suddenly we're all imagining you using the bidet exactly,

1143
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:04,320
Speaker 2: and the family is here.

1144
00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:10,720
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, let's talk first about the emotional manipulation of

1145
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 3: her saying you better not get me anything or I

1146
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:18,680
Speaker 3: will uninvite uninvited. Let's be serious. If they don't get

1147
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:24,960
Speaker 3: you anything, she'll bitch about it forever, all right, Right,

1148
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 3: So I disagree with getting her like a fun, silly thing.

1149
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 3: Don't waste your money on something somebody can't.

1150
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:35,520
Speaker 2: Use, right, Okay, The money is going to be spent

1151
00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:36,080
Speaker 2: either way.

1152
00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:39,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's going to be spent either way. So what

1153
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:43,920
Speaker 3: you need to do is, in my opinion, give her

1154
00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 3: an experience.

1155
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:48,320
Speaker 2: Okay, So buy.

1156
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 3: Like a gift card for a restaurant or a hotel.

1157
00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:59,479
Speaker 2: Oh kind of even honeymoon level, yeah right.

1158
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 3: Or stay cation staking you know, find out where they're

1159
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 3: going on the honeymoon, get them a dinner wherever. That's

1160
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:13,560
Speaker 3: gonna be right, right, But don't buy a gag gift. Okay.

1161
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:18,000
Speaker 3: Nobody likes a gag gift because then the impetus is

1162
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 3: on them to find.

1163
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:21,600
Speaker 2: Out what to do with this.

1164
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 3: Where I put this in the house and donate it

1165
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:27,080
Speaker 3: right or unloaded on somebody else, you know what I mean.

1166
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,640
Speaker 2: Now it's on the garage floor for five years. Come on,

1167
01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 2: it's just like, don't leave it alone. I feel I

1168
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:36,160
Speaker 2: agree in a large you know, it seems like the

1169
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 2: friend doesn't like their family. I'm almost wondering, maybe you

1170
01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 2: get the friend a new phone plan where the family

1171
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:47,040
Speaker 2: doesn't have that number. Now this is an idea.

1172
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 3: Now, this is just you making sense once again. I'm

1173
01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:53,800
Speaker 3: getting to the root of the phone that they don't

1174
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:55,440
Speaker 3: have access, right.

1175
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 2: Essentially a burner phone. Now, how often do you get

1176
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 2: a burner own for your wedding? Not very often.

1177
01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:08,440
Speaker 3: But you are making so much thanks, thank you.

1178
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 2: You can get them a cute little cell phone, a

1179
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:12,960
Speaker 2: cell phone case. Now we're getting in. It's probably a

1180
01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:16,080
Speaker 2: little more expensive, but it'll be worth it in the end. Yes,

1181
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:19,680
Speaker 2: And then yes, they can stay in touch because they're

1182
01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:22,240
Speaker 2: obviously going to want to manipulate you in the future,

1183
01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,520
Speaker 2: call you screaming about what you've done wrong this time.

1184
01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:28,720
Speaker 2: This bride, I feel like you're not just a bridezilla,

1185
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,920
Speaker 2: You're that's your whole life. No, one's just in one

1186
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:33,840
Speaker 2: segment of their life. Difficult. No no, no, no no.

1187
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:36,680
Speaker 2: They're difficult all the time the time. And now we're

1188
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:38,400
Speaker 2: just paying attention to them being difficult.

1189
01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 3: She's just a Zilla's okay, she's a zilla about different

1190
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 3: things at different time.

1191
01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 2: Right, this one just happens to involve friends and family.

1192
01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 2: So just be prepared for a lifetime of torture with

1193
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 2: this friend, with this friend.

1194
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:57,240
Speaker 3: But I can say it's nice that she doesn't want

1195
01:01:57,280 --> 01:02:00,120
Speaker 3: to have any bridesmaids, because it is a pain in

1196
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:00,560
Speaker 3: the end, it.

1197
01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,760
Speaker 2: Is a huge pain. It's a job, an unpaid position.

1198
01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 3: An unpaid, shitty position that won't end, that will end,

1199
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 3: It never ends. You know, there's got to be a

1200
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 3: you know, engagement party, a save the date throwdown.

1201
01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 2: You know this, and that the innovations that happen within

1202
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:28,000
Speaker 2: within that industry are psychotic, psychotic whoever it's you have

1203
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:29,880
Speaker 2: to keep the money flowing, so they're always thinking of

1204
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 2: a new event for people.

1205
01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:33,880
Speaker 3: To have exactly. And then it keeps you off balance

1206
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 3: for the first few years of your marriage because it

1207
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:41,000
Speaker 3: sets a terrible precedent, you know, and it makes you

1208
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:43,880
Speaker 3: believe that people are at your beck and call, and

1209
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:44,280
Speaker 3: they are.

1210
01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 2: Not so, and now you're deeply in debt. The whole

1211
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:49,280
Speaker 2: thing is just a disaster.

1212
01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 3: So then what what can you do to stir the

1213
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:56,720
Speaker 3: excitement back up? Get pregnant and now we're in.

1214
01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:59,040
Speaker 2: The baby shower industrial complex.

1215
01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:02,800
Speaker 3: Sufferable, Yeah, make me our industrial complex.

1216
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:07,080
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, it's never ending. So maybe just break up

1217
01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 2: the marriage. That's my advice. Break up the marriage and

1218
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:12,640
Speaker 2: move on. I think we answered the question perfectly. We

1219
01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 2: did no complaints, and now I've got all this toilet paper.

1220
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:16,840
Speaker 2: I'm so thrilled.

1221
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:19,240
Speaker 3: I'm so thrilled for you. This is going to be

1222
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 3: a really expansive time for you.

1223
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,720
Speaker 2: Yes, there's going to be growth in new areas of

1224
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:24,240
Speaker 2: my life.

1225
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 3: You're gonna be like, what else can I Hello Kitty?

1226
01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:30,240
Speaker 2: And they have something for everything they do? You can

1227
01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:31,919
Speaker 2: get Hello Kitty on anything at this point.

1228
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:33,560
Speaker 3: Yes you can, Yes you can.

1229
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:36,080
Speaker 2: Thank you for bringing this, thank you for being so welcome,

1230
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:40,440
Speaker 2: Thank you for having me listener the podcast. I'm pulling

1231
01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:44,920
Speaker 2: the brake slowly, gently. We're all going to move on

1232
01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:48,520
Speaker 2: with our days. No one is panicking, no one is sweating,

1233
01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 2: no one is turning into an anxious mess and thinking

1234
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:54,560
Speaker 2: about everything they've ever done wrong. We're just moving on

1235
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:56,200
Speaker 2: with our days. So I'm going to let you go.

1236
01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 2: I love you, goodbye. I said no gifts is an

1237
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:09,240
Speaker 2: exactly right production. Our Senior producer is on Alisa Nelson,

1238
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:13,000
Speaker 2: and our episodes are beautifully mixed by Ben Toliday. The

1239
01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 2: theme song is by Miracle Worker Amy Mann, and we

1240
01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:19,919
Speaker 2: couldn't do it without our booker, Patrick Cottner. You must

1241
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:22,720
Speaker 2: follow the show on Instagram at I said, no gifts.

1242
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 2: That's where you're going to see pictures of all these

1243
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,320
