WEBVTT - Arrivederci

0:00:02.520 --> 0:00:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Hey, folks, bella chow bella chow bella chow child chow.

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:13.160
<v Speaker 1>In this jam packed final vacation episode from Italy, Robot

0:00:13.240 --> 0:00:19.760
<v Speaker 1>and I endure a hilarious robbery attempts. Also, I now

0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>know what it's like to date a vampire for reasons

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand. Robot curses like crazy in every Catholic

0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:36.159
<v Speaker 1>church she enters. And do you know the difference between shorts,

0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:44.120
<v Speaker 1>jean shorts, Bermuda shorts, board shorts and shorts? Why Eat,

0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:48.440
<v Speaker 1>Pray Love is now my favorite book I've never read

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 1>in my favorite movie I've never seen. Plus, white ladies

0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:57.320
<v Speaker 1>are on the menu in Rome and I ordered one

0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 1>right in front of Robot last night, And folks, it

0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:06.440
<v Speaker 1>finally happened. Robot, in a moment of frustration, snapped at

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:11.800
<v Speaker 1>me on this vacation. Wow, and coming back as a

0:01:11.920 --> 0:01:16.479
<v Speaker 1>married couple was awfully tempting. And with all of that,

0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:23.959
<v Speaker 1>welcome to this episode of Amy and TJ. Robes. Let's

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>stood out to you there.

0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:28.319
<v Speaker 2>I love how you surprised me in these intros. I

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:30.319
<v Speaker 2>never quite know what you're gonna say, and I think

0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:32.040
<v Speaker 2>that's by design, obviously.

0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:34.040
<v Speaker 1>But that was a lot.

0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:36.240
<v Speaker 2>There were a couple of disease in there.

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:39.559
<v Speaker 1>Does that was our vacation. There was a lot to happen.

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 2>We took notes a lot. No, you took notes. I

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 2>was impressed everything that happened. You were like, wait, I'm

0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm not texting anyone, I'm just making notes for the podcast.

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:51.680
<v Speaker 2>And you did that quite often over the last few days,

0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:53.200
<v Speaker 2>which was very cool. I was like, you know it

0:01:53.240 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 2>because you forget moments that happened along the way, but

0:01:56.720 --> 0:02:00.520
<v Speaker 2>you were documenting so that we could give a very

0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 2>full picture of what this vacation has been like.

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Again, the last couple of episodes, we've talked about what's

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>going on back home, but you know what, for fun

0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:10.359
<v Speaker 1>and shits and giggles, we're going to talk about what's

0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:15.160
<v Speaker 1>been happening with us here. And so this happened to

0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:20.680
<v Speaker 1>us last night. Let's since we've been here. I New

0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:23.639
<v Speaker 1>York is you know, you got to keep your eye

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 1>on your stuff in New York, but here it's in

0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:28.480
<v Speaker 1>another level to where everyone it seems like we ran

0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:31.519
<v Speaker 1>into was warning us, yes, hold on to your bag,

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:33.560
<v Speaker 1>your phone, you be aware.

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:37.799
<v Speaker 2>Everywhere we went. The only English they could speak was

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 2>to say, watch out for your bag, like, be careful

0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 2>about your purse. They were very aware that the pickpocketers

0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 2>were everywhere and on the loose, and I was like, really,

0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:52.160
<v Speaker 2>I've been here and I just never felt that threat.

0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:57.359
<v Speaker 2>But yet last night we had this was hilarious and

0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.880
<v Speaker 2>I didn't even know. I wouldn't even know I would

0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:02.480
<v Speaker 2>have had my stuff stolen. Probably.

0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I guess I'm the one in our relationships that's

0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:08.600
<v Speaker 1>the one with the head on the swivel all the time, always,

0:03:09.080 --> 0:03:11.040
<v Speaker 1>and that was the case last night. Now I'm usually

0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 1>looking how.

0:03:13.520 --> 0:03:16.040
<v Speaker 2>But this time it worked out for pick potter.

0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:20.040
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to put people in in in the context

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.239
<v Speaker 1>of what we were experiencing last night. We were sitting

0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:27.240
<v Speaker 1>outside to have dinner in kind of an empty space,

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:29.519
<v Speaker 1>so you had a lot of options where you wanted

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:33.760
<v Speaker 1>to sit. And someone came and sat up right next

0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:36.320
<v Speaker 1>to us last night, and it raised my opera.

0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she didn't look like the others. And then she

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.520
<v Speaker 2>didn't two with the others, well, the other people who

0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:45.760
<v Speaker 2>would have been at the restaurant, And she didn't go

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 2>through a concierge or any sort of like mad er d.

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.480
<v Speaker 2>She just walked like from the street. And then just

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:53.600
<v Speaker 2>sat right next to me.

0:03:53.880 --> 0:03:56.280
<v Speaker 1>It didn't harm you though I didn't even know.

0:03:56.400 --> 0:04:04.520
<v Speaker 2>She's situational awareness is not at the level of yours is.

0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Would you argue that it's gone down even lower because

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>you know mine is at a height. I am so

0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 1>aware of everything. You don't even look both ways before

0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:15.119
<v Speaker 1>a crossing.

0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:17.760
<v Speaker 2>The street when we're thank you baby, because I'm gonna

0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:19.800
<v Speaker 2>just give. And this is how much I trust you.

0:04:20.560 --> 0:04:25.880
<v Speaker 2>This is my trust for you. It's true if I

0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:28.880
<v Speaker 2>were alone, I would have acted much differently and I

0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:32.560
<v Speaker 2>would have felt much differently. But knowing that you had

0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:34.920
<v Speaker 2>my back, like seriously, and I don't know that I've

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:38.800
<v Speaker 2>ever leaned into anyone the way, like just almost emotionally

0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:42.120
<v Speaker 2>and situationally, I lean into you. I'm like he's got me,

0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:45.680
<v Speaker 2>and it's one of the I'm bringing my feminine energy

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 2>to the relationship. Say what you want to say about that.

0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:54.880
<v Speaker 2>But I actually feel myself being different than I've been

0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:59.320
<v Speaker 2>before because when I've been traveling as a journalist and

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm on my own, I have a female producer, which

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:04.840
<v Speaker 2>was often the case, I have been on guard. My

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.919
<v Speaker 2>heirs are like I am in charge. But it's funny

0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:11.960
<v Speaker 2>when i'm with you, I feel myself falling into a

0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:18.720
<v Speaker 2>traditional female role and I feel myself feeling safe with you,

0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.040
<v Speaker 2>and then I like that I do like you. I

0:05:22.120 --> 0:05:25.279
<v Speaker 2>hate to admit it. I'm going to be honest, but

0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:28.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to be honest and say I like it.

0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:31.240
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, he's got me, he's watching out for us,

0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:35.080
<v Speaker 2>he's looking and so I have I like. It's funny

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:40.040
<v Speaker 2>because I think with you, you are Oh my god,

0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.880
<v Speaker 2>I think you're like the You're the first person I

0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 2>just I let my guard down because I know your

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:48.000
<v Speaker 2>guard is up.

0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Your guard was so down last night. Because this one

0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:54.159
<v Speaker 1>when comes and sits and it's hard to describe. I

0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:59.200
<v Speaker 1>mean it's two feet from us, three feet maybe, but

0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:01.560
<v Speaker 1>she's sitting right next to you.

0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean our feet could have played foot.

0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Seas yea easily. And so to your right there about

0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:10.880
<v Speaker 1>foot seas. She there's a little intimate two seat table

0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:15.200
<v Speaker 1>next to us. We're in a two seat table sitting outside.

0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Everything's right, So we have our bag with or whatever

0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:19.479
<v Speaker 1>we had bought.

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and then my jacket, your.

0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Jacket, your per we're under the table. Actually tucked them

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:29.080
<v Speaker 1>under there for that reason. So this woman comes and

0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:31.960
<v Speaker 1>she sits right. That doesn't make any sense. Why there's

0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:34.240
<v Speaker 1>so many options. There's no way you would pick the

0:06:34.240 --> 0:06:34.640
<v Speaker 1>table right.

0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:37.200
<v Speaker 2>It's like when you're in an elevator, you're going to

0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:39.240
<v Speaker 2>go to the other side of the elevator. You're not

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:42.279
<v Speaker 2>going to go stand right next to the person. So yes,

0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.640
<v Speaker 2>she came and sat right next to us when there

0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:49.200
<v Speaker 2>were a raw of other tables to sit at.

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:52.839
<v Speaker 1>So I am now I recognize it, and I'm looking

0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:56.160
<v Speaker 1>at robes and I start saying, what hey, babe, I

0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:57.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know how long I'm gonna let this play out,

0:06:57.960 --> 0:06:59.320
<v Speaker 1>but there's almost trying to rob us.

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:05.279
<v Speaker 2>In my mind, I was like, what what woman? I

0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:07.040
<v Speaker 2>don't even know what you're talking about.

0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 1>So the woman actually was trying to with her foot

0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 1>move her foot from under her table to under our

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:18.600
<v Speaker 1>table and slide robox, purse or maybe the things we

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 1>just bought over to her side. So this goes on.

0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking like at least two minutes to where I'm

0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:26.360
<v Speaker 1>looked like ropes. I don't know how long I'm to

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:29.680
<v Speaker 1>let this go are our waiter comes over and he's

0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:32.000
<v Speaker 1>taking an order, and she's waiting for us to be

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:34.920
<v Speaker 1>distracted and the whole time, like you go ahead and

0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>order that.

0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 2>You said you order that, and you kept your eyes

0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:39.960
<v Speaker 2>straight on the slode, and it was amazing.

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't staring at her, but it was just I

0:07:41.960 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 1>knew what she was doing. It was kind of hilarious.

0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:48.520
<v Speaker 2>You actually wish that you had let it longer. I

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:50.440
<v Speaker 2>want to see where she was going to take this.

0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, but so eventually I don't know what her English,

0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:56.960
<v Speaker 1>how much she understood, but we were being very plain

0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:57.480
<v Speaker 1>and simple.

0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:00.840
<v Speaker 2>You were having to overtly explain to me what was

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 2>going on, and I was like, oh, that woman like

0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.120
<v Speaker 2>right there behind me, so I think she heard, and

0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:09.800
<v Speaker 2>she knew enough English to know that she was outed.

0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:14.360
<v Speaker 1>But she got up and started banging, like she's.

0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Pissed that we now know she was trying to steal

0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 2>our stuff. So she gets up, You're right. She banged

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:23.280
<v Speaker 2>at least two tables and then banged a like a

0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:26.840
<v Speaker 2>barricade that was there as she was leaving, like like,

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:30.080
<v Speaker 2>f y'all, you didn't let me steal your shit. It

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 2>was really funny. It was dramatic.

0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:34.120
<v Speaker 1>So that was last night, and we were actually going

0:08:34.160 --> 0:08:36.480
<v Speaker 1>back to that place tonight because this is so good.

0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:39.160
<v Speaker 2>The food was best food ever, actually going.

0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:42.199
<v Speaker 1>That we've been there all these this time. The best

0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:44.600
<v Speaker 1>place we found was just last night and we're going

0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:45.080
<v Speaker 1>back there.

0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:47.080
<v Speaker 2>It's a two minute walk this evening.

0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:49.959
<v Speaker 1>But I said, I now know what it's like to

0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.560
<v Speaker 1>date a vampire. Now there's history on every single block,

0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.240
<v Speaker 1>like there's a Starbucks on every single block in New York.

0:08:56.640 --> 0:09:01.079
<v Speaker 1>It's incredible. I don't care what you It doesn't matter

0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:03.840
<v Speaker 1>if you where you're from, what your religion is, if

0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:08.000
<v Speaker 1>you are religious, what race. The history here is just

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:11.160
<v Speaker 1>incredible on every single block. And a part of that

0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:16.880
<v Speaker 1>beauty is Basilica's as you like to say. But the churches,

0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:21.280
<v Speaker 1>but the churches here are unbelievable, But every single one, Robot,

0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:25.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying you're not a I would never characterize

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:29.000
<v Speaker 1>you as a potty mouth ever. I'd never say she

0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:33.520
<v Speaker 1>curses like a sailor ever. But I have been shocked

0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:37.800
<v Speaker 1>at every time we have walked into a church in Rome.

0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:39.040
<v Speaker 2>Do I drop the F bomb?

0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.720
<v Speaker 1>You have cursed more than I have ever heard you.

0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:45.920
<v Speaker 2>Because that's so sad and amazing. It's embarrassing because I'm

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.720
<v Speaker 2>so blown away, and maybe that's my go to to

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 2>describe something that I don't have words for.

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I wrote, and I told you and taking notes. No, no, no,

0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not dogging you for this. I'm not knocking you.

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:01.839
<v Speaker 1>But you walked into I think we went into one

0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:03.760
<v Speaker 1>church today. I can't remember twenty one. I think we

0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:06.080
<v Speaker 1>only went into one today. But you walked in and

0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:07.240
<v Speaker 1>this was the exact quote.

0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:10.679
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't even know what this is.

0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:14.880
<v Speaker 1>First we step into the church. Now these are the

0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:19.600
<v Speaker 1>first words out of her mouth. Holy, this is beautiful.

0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Now that's a compliment, it is, but it's so I

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:32.160
<v Speaker 1>actually cannot remember you being profane on this trip at all.

0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:35.839
<v Speaker 1>And except for the parts we the first moment we

0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:39.200
<v Speaker 1>step into a church, you say, holy fucking ship. Oh my,

0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:43.920
<v Speaker 1>it's something. So here's the deal. Like we know all

0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:47.160
<v Speaker 1>of the like obviously St. Peter's Basilica, you know the

0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:51.400
<v Speaker 1>big tourist attractions. I would argue when you go to Rome,

0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:55.959
<v Speaker 1>every corner, every street there is a basilica. There is

0:10:56.080 --> 0:11:04.160
<v Speaker 1>this unbelievable, gorgeous church dedicated to Christ and God, all

0:11:04.280 --> 0:11:05.840
<v Speaker 1>inspiring every single one, and.

0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:08.200
<v Speaker 2>You like there's not even a tourist in there. You're like,

0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:10.920
<v Speaker 2>you have the church to yourself and you're like, this

0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:14.160
<v Speaker 2>isn't even on the map on the trip Advisor like

0:11:14.360 --> 0:11:18.440
<v Speaker 2>places to visit. I just stumbled into this basilica and

0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:21.240
<v Speaker 2>it is church I've ever seen.

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I have never in my life paid for a tour

0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:33.360
<v Speaker 1>of something that was better than walking freely into a

0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:38.120
<v Speaker 1>church here in Rome is at It's incredible.

0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:46.280
<v Speaker 2>It's architecturally, it's remarkable, and I actually felt spiritually moved.

0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:50.720
<v Speaker 2>Look I I have I have said I was raised Catholic.

0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:58.240
<v Speaker 2>I am no longer practicing, practicing Catholic, but my grandparents

0:11:58.360 --> 0:12:01.679
<v Speaker 2>all were very devout Catholic, Like my grandmother was the

0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:05.520
<v Speaker 2>last one to actually decide to become a Catholic, but

0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:08.080
<v Speaker 2>the rest of them were born that way. And I

0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:11.559
<v Speaker 2>felt compelled in this church we were in today, this basilica.

0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.200
<v Speaker 2>I just they have candles. Everyone whose Catholic knows you

0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:19.960
<v Speaker 2>put a little offering into like a little coin into

0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:24.720
<v Speaker 2>an area, and then you light a candle for someone

0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:28.160
<v Speaker 2>who's passed on. And so I lit candles for each

0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:32.960
<v Speaker 2>of my grandparents, and you know, whatever you believe, I

0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:34.720
<v Speaker 2>just felt emotional in the moment. It felt like a

0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:36.720
<v Speaker 2>beautiful place to do it. It was a really cool

0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:40.760
<v Speaker 2>moment for me, and it was a special day for

0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.560
<v Speaker 2>me today and it was awesome to be I lit

0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:47.679
<v Speaker 2>for candles for all of my grandparents and it was

0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:50.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, that was like one of my favorite parts

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:51.120
<v Speaker 2>of this entire trip.

0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Today was a completely unplanned and special day. And that

0:13:04.760 --> 0:13:07.480
<v Speaker 1>we ended up in the ghetto and a lot of people,

0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:09.680
<v Speaker 1>when you say Rome, if you've been around, been here.

0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:12.400
<v Speaker 1>We ended up in the ghetto, and they continue to

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.880
<v Speaker 1>refer to as that. But the Jewish ghetto and the

0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:20.000
<v Speaker 1>history there of where this no neighborhood and the Jewish

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:23.640
<v Speaker 1>community was essentially enclosed. This is where you have to

0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:26.800
<v Speaker 1>be and have to stay and to see some of

0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:29.719
<v Speaker 1>the I don't know what would you describe it as.

0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:33.680
<v Speaker 1>There's some there's a proud herriage and history there now

0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:36.839
<v Speaker 1>in a community there. Yeah that we got to hang

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:37.240
<v Speaker 1>out there.

0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:41.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they called the Jewish Quarter officially now, but I

0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.000
<v Speaker 2>think most people reckon, Like you can even look it

0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:46.360
<v Speaker 2>up on your Google maps or whatever, like there's even

0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:49.920
<v Speaker 2>restaurants that regard the Jewish Ghetto. They called it that.

0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.160
<v Speaker 1>So there's whatever ghetto.

0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:55.720
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes it is not a Jewish ghetto, Jewish Jewish quarter,

0:13:56.280 --> 0:14:01.320
<v Speaker 2>but It's one of those parts of Rome that not

0:14:01.520 --> 0:14:04.360
<v Speaker 2>everyone knows about, but it is so special and it

0:14:04.480 --> 0:14:07.960
<v Speaker 2>is so cool, and we had an incredible time there

0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:13.360
<v Speaker 2>with the food, the culture. There is a colisseum like

0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:19.240
<v Speaker 2>theater that was commissioned by Caesar something Tiatro, and it.

0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Was one of the coolest things I've seen, Like.

0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:25.560
<v Speaker 2>The colisseum, but it's not and there are apartments above it.

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:29.840
<v Speaker 2>People live above this amazing structure. Yeah, you said that

0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:31.760
<v Speaker 2>that was better for you than the coliseum.

0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Actually that was a qu to think that something was

0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:41.360
<v Speaker 1>built two thousand years ago and one day, one a

0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:45.840
<v Speaker 1>d someone is residing in it. Yes, that's just incredible.

0:14:45.960 --> 0:14:46.680
<v Speaker 2>It's remarkable.

0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:49.600
<v Speaker 1>So that's that's what this city is. There's history on

0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:51.080
<v Speaker 1>every single block.

0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:55.920
<v Speaker 2>You turn a corner and you are inspired by Actually,

0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:59.440
<v Speaker 2>I've said even like if there was no cameras or

0:14:59.480 --> 0:15:02.640
<v Speaker 2>whatever modern thing might be there, a scooter or something.

0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:06.680
<v Speaker 2>If you remove that, this could be any point in time.

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.720
<v Speaker 2>It could be before Christ, it could be just and

0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:13.640
<v Speaker 2>it could be biblical times. And you're here right now

0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:17.080
<v Speaker 2>and you're experiencing it and seeing the incredible art and

0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:20.680
<v Speaker 2>architecture that was left behind. It really, especially as an American.

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.800
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, you know, we're so young and so new.

0:15:23.920 --> 0:15:28.720
<v Speaker 2>But to see what people are still using and enjoying

0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:32.200
<v Speaker 2>two thousand years later from people who were smart enough

0:15:32.200 --> 0:15:35.400
<v Speaker 2>and figured out how to create these incredible structures without

0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:38.640
<v Speaker 2>modern technology or machinery, it's amazing.

0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:40.680
<v Speaker 1>And again we you know, I want to go into

0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:44.640
<v Speaker 1>Trinity Church in downtown in our neighborhood again, because every

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>single church here is older than that one. Yeah, the

0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:55.520
<v Speaker 1>oldest church in Manhattan is brand new compared to everything

0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:55.920
<v Speaker 1>we have.

0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:58.160
<v Speaker 2>Seen here, like significantly brand new.

0:15:58.400 --> 0:16:02.920
<v Speaker 1>It is remarkable. Oh, it's so cool. So no matter what,

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:04.720
<v Speaker 1>and we you and I talked about this and the

0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:08.520
<v Speaker 1>type of vacations you like were signing like I don't

0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 1>like planning trips and museum trips and then doing touristy

0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:15.000
<v Speaker 1>quote unquote thing.

0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:16.920
<v Speaker 2>And we went to Florence and you didn't want to

0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:17.560
<v Speaker 2>see David.

0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what do you want to do?

0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:22.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's fine, but that's just who you mean.

0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:25.360
<v Speaker 2>It's cool. I get it, you got a lot of

0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:26.160
<v Speaker 2>cool leather.

0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:29.280
<v Speaker 1>But you said I had to stand in line to

0:16:29.360 --> 0:16:33.040
<v Speaker 1>go see a famous penis correct.

0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:37.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's a statue, it's a sculpture by Michelangelo.

0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:41.840
<v Speaker 1>But yes, I guess that is a really rudimentary way

0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:42.880
<v Speaker 1>to describe it.

0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 2>But that is essentially is probably the most famous part

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:47.760
<v Speaker 2>because it's on Aprons.

0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:51.920
<v Speaker 1>And TJ standing line around our hour and a half.

0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 1>So you can go see a famous penis.

0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:57.680
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I hadn't thought about it like that, but now

0:16:57.720 --> 0:17:00.280
<v Speaker 2>that you do, I mean I hear it as I

0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:02.600
<v Speaker 2>had already seen it. I was fine. I was like, okay,

0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:03.960

0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:32.359
<v Speaker 1>told are actually different from gene shorts and different from

0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:39.040
<v Speaker 1>regular shorts. I am lost cargo shorts. Well, I get cars.

0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I know what cargo pants are.

0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:47.760
<v Speaker 2>So it is with the extra pocket. I'm saying, don't

0:18:48.560 --> 0:18:52.200
<v Speaker 2>number of ways you can describe different kinds of shorts.

0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:56.320
<v Speaker 1>But the thing I'm running into is shorts, jeane shorts

0:18:56.680 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 1>and shorts. Why are not all shorts that are made

0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:03.120
<v Speaker 1>of denim called jorts?

0:19:07.160 --> 0:19:08.440
<v Speaker 2>I know, I don't know.

0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:11.679
<v Speaker 1>For actually a couple of years, We've had.

0:19:11.560 --> 0:19:15.600
<v Speaker 2>This conversation actually far too often on this trip. But

0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:19.399
<v Speaker 2>my personal opinion, and anyone can argue with me, is

0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:29.160
<v Speaker 2>that georts are shorts that are jeans denim that are fine, fine, fine, fine,

0:19:29.240 --> 0:19:33.040
<v Speaker 2>they're almost to the knee. You can roll them up.

0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 2>They could be cut off, but they're essentially around the

0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:36.879
<v Speaker 2>knee area.

0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:40.159
<v Speaker 1>Okay, wait, whoa, So you're telling me Georges has nothing

0:19:40.200 --> 0:19:42.280
<v Speaker 1>to do with whether it's a gene.

0:19:42.200 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a gene. What you're saying it has to be

0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:48.320
<v Speaker 2>a link. Yeah.

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:51.600
<v Speaker 1>So if I'm wearing a denim short that is at

0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:55.280
<v Speaker 1>my thigh, what is that called jean shorts?

0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:02.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? And then if they're really really like near your butt,

0:20:02.480 --> 0:20:05.439
<v Speaker 2>they're either daisy dukes or they're cut off shorts.

0:20:05.840 --> 0:20:08.400
<v Speaker 1>But if a man wears a short that is a

0:20:08.520 --> 0:20:11.600
<v Speaker 1>denim short above the thigh, what do you call that

0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:17.240
<v Speaker 1>jean shorts? Okay, y'all see what I'm dealing with, and we.

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Do is con And then so every person that walks

0:20:20.200 --> 0:20:23.439
<v Speaker 2>by TJ's like, what do you call those shorts? What

0:20:23.480 --> 0:20:25.560
<v Speaker 2>do you call those shorts? This has been a big

0:20:25.600 --> 0:20:31.320
<v Speaker 2>part of our vacation, you know what vacation me saying

0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:35.200
<v Speaker 2>what length or what the name is of the shorts

0:20:35.359 --> 0:20:38.200
<v Speaker 2>that people are wearing. But I will say it's been

0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:42.639
<v Speaker 2>my experience that in Europe. Whatever's happening here trend wise

0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:47.159
<v Speaker 2>is in America the next year. So I've already started

0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:50.680
<v Speaker 2>to see it, see it, But I know that's great.

0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:52.119
<v Speaker 2>I've already started to see it.

0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Would you like me to refer all nice refill that

0:20:57.760 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 1>not pearl spreads.

0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:02.480
<v Speaker 2>I feel like this is a that's a fair turnaround

0:21:02.480 --> 0:21:06.120
<v Speaker 2>perfect Yep, that was fair. But I feel like whatever

0:21:06.160 --> 0:21:10.800
<v Speaker 2>we see in Europe a year later becomes fashion.

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:13.880
<v Speaker 1>In We were here last summer and the George thing

0:21:13.920 --> 0:21:16.800
<v Speaker 1>you told me make it to the US.

0:21:17.000 --> 0:21:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Seen it, I've seen it. I feel like you're going

0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:21.560
<v Speaker 2>to see more of it, and the next year it's

0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:25.080
<v Speaker 2>going to be everywhere. It takes like a year or

0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:27.800
<v Speaker 2>two for whatever is happening in Europe to make its

0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:29.640
<v Speaker 2>way to the United States.

0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:31.760
<v Speaker 1>And we're recording this now on the last night that

0:21:31.800 --> 0:21:36.320
<v Speaker 1>we're going to be in Europe, and we are probably

0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:40.639
<v Speaker 1>going to go have dinner to night at a restaurant

0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:44.880
<v Speaker 1>we just discovered on our next to last night here,

0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:51.600
<v Speaker 1>and we discovered it and we have been drinking. What

0:21:51.640 --> 0:21:59.000
<v Speaker 1>would you argue April spreads April spreads Moretti Parretti, Parretti, Parni.

0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:03.080
<v Speaker 1>I never there's prosecco. You've been going after a little bit.

0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:05.639
<v Speaker 1>But last night there was a drink on the menu

0:22:05.680 --> 0:22:08.120
<v Speaker 1>at this place we went to and it was one

0:22:08.119 --> 0:22:11.840
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite moments actually here in Italy. And the

0:22:11.880 --> 0:22:15.320
<v Speaker 1>water he was my favorite, actually person we have that with.

0:22:15.480 --> 0:22:17.800
<v Speaker 1>He's my favorite water we had since we've been here.

0:22:18.440 --> 0:22:21.320
<v Speaker 1>And there was a drink on the menu that had

0:22:21.560 --> 0:22:25.359
<v Speaker 1>it was gin. It was lemon and quantro I think,

0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:28.119
<v Speaker 1>and it came into martini glass, that's what it was.

0:22:28.400 --> 0:22:31.639
<v Speaker 2>But it was called what the White Lady.

0:22:31.800 --> 0:22:35.440
<v Speaker 1>It was called the White Lady, so it actually sounded

0:22:35.480 --> 0:22:38.840
<v Speaker 1>good in the ingredients. But I was very excited about

0:22:38.960 --> 0:22:40.120
<v Speaker 1>ordering this from this guy.

0:22:40.400 --> 0:22:42.680
<v Speaker 2>You were so good at it too, Because I think

0:22:42.720 --> 0:22:47.040
<v Speaker 2>we've mentioned this in a previous podcast. TJ never tells

0:22:47.080 --> 0:22:49.360
<v Speaker 2>me what he's going to order, but I will say, oh,

0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:53.040
<v Speaker 2>this was actually a fun development in this trip. I

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:58.760
<v Speaker 2>feel like TJ, you have been more than I've ever

0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:03.800
<v Speaker 2>seen before willing to collaborate on an appetizer.

0:23:03.960 --> 0:23:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Salads only, but baby please or salads.

0:23:07.320 --> 0:23:09.639
<v Speaker 2>So exciting, Okay, it's been so exciting.

0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Look excited.

0:23:12.920 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 2>Because you were like I'll eat that with you. I

0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:20.840
<v Speaker 2>was like, you will, So we have actually ordered appetizers together.

0:23:20.920 --> 0:23:24.919
<v Speaker 2>This is a huge development in our relationship. Huge development.

0:23:25.000 --> 0:23:27.800
<v Speaker 1>It's not gonna it's not going to translate across the

0:23:27.800 --> 0:23:29.000
<v Speaker 1>poast because.

0:23:28.760 --> 0:23:31.320
<v Speaker 2>I've just felt like I felt like I was a

0:23:31.440 --> 0:23:34.560
<v Speaker 2>part of it, like we could share something. It was

0:23:34.680 --> 0:23:41.840
<v Speaker 2>really cool. So we've had like shared savice, shared salads,

0:23:42.480 --> 0:23:45.080
<v Speaker 2>you've shared, You've shared like a pre say with me,

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:50.040
<v Speaker 2>you actually collaborated on an appetizer with me, I'm telling you,

0:23:50.080 --> 0:23:55.520
<v Speaker 2>in two years, this is the biggest development of our relationship.

0:23:55.359 --> 0:23:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Of our dining out relationship.

0:23:56.960 --> 0:24:00.200
<v Speaker 2>Felt huge to me. I'm acknowledging it now. We even

0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:03.679
<v Speaker 2>talked about this, I'm telling you now. I was like,

0:24:03.880 --> 0:24:06.080
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, I think he's in this, Like I

0:24:06.119 --> 0:24:09.440
<v Speaker 2>think I think he really wants this to.

0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Work because I'm now coordinating.

0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it felt it did feel like that. It felt

0:24:13.880 --> 0:24:15.639
<v Speaker 2>collaborative in a way that it happened before.

0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, I didn't expect it to be that fun.

0:24:20.560 --> 0:24:25.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, I'm sorry. So the drinks, we don't usually

0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:29.560
<v Speaker 2>collaborate because it doesn't matter, you can, yeah whatever. I

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.720
<v Speaker 2>ordered a prosecco and he goes, I'll have the White Lady.

0:24:35.320 --> 0:24:38.959
<v Speaker 2>It was amazing. It was so perfect. I had no idea.

0:24:39.040 --> 0:24:43.160
<v Speaker 2>You've never ordered a drink. You usually ordered beer or

0:24:43.560 --> 0:24:48.040
<v Speaker 2>an april sprits or a market specific There's things that I.

0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:52.199
<v Speaker 1>Know not order off of a restaurant drink. I have

0:24:52.480 --> 0:24:53.399
<v Speaker 1>never heard.

0:24:53.160 --> 0:24:56.720
<v Speaker 2>You order a not only a drink, a specific drink

0:24:56.760 --> 0:25:00.560
<v Speaker 2>to a restaurant, but like one that's named seeing like.

0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I've never heard you do that, he said, And his

0:25:04.160 --> 0:25:07.960
<v Speaker 1>response was amazing. He just he got it. It took

0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:10.640
<v Speaker 1>him a second, but he loved it.

0:25:11.280 --> 0:25:15.480
<v Speaker 2>He laughed, and that I belly laughed. I was that

0:25:15.600 --> 0:25:17.600
<v Speaker 2>was That was my favorite part of yesterday.

0:25:17.720 --> 0:25:20.239
<v Speaker 1>I ended up ordering a second one and maybe they

0:25:20.240 --> 0:25:20.640
<v Speaker 1>were good.

0:25:20.720 --> 0:25:21.200
<v Speaker 2>They were good.

0:25:21.200 --> 0:25:24.000
<v Speaker 1>They were good. It was it was gin. It was

0:25:24.160 --> 0:25:29.879
<v Speaker 1>quantroe and lemon juice that happened together. It's called a

0:25:30.000 --> 0:25:33.879
<v Speaker 1>white Lady here in Italy, so if you come.

0:25:33.800 --> 0:25:39.359
<v Speaker 2>Here, consider it. It's better than an aperol spreads.

0:25:39.359 --> 0:25:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Apparently, let's not come up with the name of the

0:25:50.520 --> 0:25:53.120
<v Speaker 1>movie we were just watching on Netflix because we were

0:25:53.200 --> 0:25:56.359
<v Speaker 1>laughing so hilariously. No, no, no, let's not do that. But

0:25:56.760 --> 0:26:02.120
<v Speaker 1>there's so many movies about that are romanticized Rome Italy

0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:05.600
<v Speaker 1>and what is you come here?

0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Is it?

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Women? Right? You come here and you're finding yourself. You

0:26:10.040 --> 0:26:16.560
<v Speaker 1>own an adventure. Yes, n I did not know Eat

0:26:16.640 --> 0:26:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Pray Love. You've been talking to me about a lot

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:21.280
<v Speaker 1>about it. I've never seen that the book. I've never

0:26:21.320 --> 0:26:21.879
<v Speaker 1>read the book.

0:26:22.840 --> 0:26:24.920
<v Speaker 2>But Elizabeth Gilbert, she's amazing.

0:26:25.080 --> 0:26:28.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So here's the thing. I know how much that

0:26:28.840 --> 0:26:32.959
<v Speaker 1>movie means to culturally, how much it has meant, and

0:26:33.000 --> 0:26:36.919
<v Speaker 1>a part of it is about women finding themselves or

0:26:37.440 --> 0:26:41.439
<v Speaker 1>or or you know, No, let me let you do that.

0:26:41.480 --> 0:26:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I was about to say the wrong thing.

0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, I wasn't saying you were saying the wrong thing.

0:26:45.920 --> 0:26:48.680
<v Speaker 1>No, I know you weren't. But I'm saying what that

0:26:48.800 --> 0:26:51.480
<v Speaker 1>movie represents and that story represents.

0:26:51.520 --> 0:26:55.040
<v Speaker 2>For I can only I can only speak for myself

0:26:55.200 --> 0:26:57.800
<v Speaker 2>with Eat Pray Love and Elizabeth Gilbert. Like for me,

0:26:58.080 --> 0:27:02.040
<v Speaker 2>I just picked the book up in a airport and

0:27:02.560 --> 0:27:07.120
<v Speaker 2>I started reading it, and I felt immediately connected to it,

0:27:07.560 --> 0:27:08.960
<v Speaker 2>as I think so many women did.

0:27:09.040 --> 0:27:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Why why why? Why why?

0:27:10.480 --> 0:27:14.399
<v Speaker 2>Because she was admitting things that people don't admit, Like

0:27:14.440 --> 0:27:18.600
<v Speaker 2>we've talked about this about like Instagram perfection and my

0:27:18.680 --> 0:27:21.320
<v Speaker 2>life is great and oh you see me with my

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:24.119
<v Speaker 2>husband and my beautiful child and my beautiful home and

0:27:24.160 --> 0:27:26.440
<v Speaker 2>everything's great, and oh you don't have that. That must

0:27:26.440 --> 0:27:28.960
<v Speaker 2>be hard for you. But when you hear from somebody

0:27:29.000 --> 0:27:33.080
<v Speaker 2>who seemingly has this beautiful life and is admitting that

0:27:33.200 --> 0:27:35.680
<v Speaker 2>it's not and it's not what she wants and it's

0:27:35.680 --> 0:27:38.920
<v Speaker 2>not what she and she's still searching, you feel like, okay,

0:27:39.000 --> 0:27:41.639
<v Speaker 2>you too, It's not just me. And so anyway, she

0:27:41.800 --> 0:27:44.160
<v Speaker 2>had that ability to connect with women.

0:27:44.280 --> 0:27:47.639
<v Speaker 1>Hey, that story. It brought her around the world, in

0:27:47.760 --> 0:27:51.560
<v Speaker 1>part here to Italy as well. Yes, but she found

0:27:51.600 --> 0:27:54.720
<v Speaker 1>love right at the end of that story.

0:27:54.760 --> 0:27:56.760
<v Speaker 2>At the end of that she did.

0:27:56.840 --> 0:28:03.480
<v Speaker 1>She found love. What a wonderful, freaking story. But that's

0:28:03.520 --> 0:28:06.880
<v Speaker 1>not why I love the story, because the story did

0:28:07.080 --> 0:28:10.160
<v Speaker 1>not end there now, and I had no idea until

0:28:10.200 --> 0:28:15.840
<v Speaker 1>we got here. And now, whoever this woman is, I

0:28:16.000 --> 0:28:18.560
<v Speaker 1>love her. I want to talk to her. I want

0:28:18.600 --> 0:28:23.480
<v Speaker 1>to be her friend, because it's life, it's reality, it's

0:28:23.520 --> 0:28:26.439
<v Speaker 1>what's happened. Please tell me. And there might be some

0:28:26.480 --> 0:28:28.480
<v Speaker 1>people who are listening right now who have no idea

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:29.440
<v Speaker 1>how this story ended.

0:28:29.600 --> 0:28:33.399
<v Speaker 2>So Ibra love Elizabeth Gilbert, who is an amazing author

0:28:33.480 --> 0:28:38.840
<v Speaker 2>and a just a remarkable woman. She went on this

0:28:38.920 --> 0:28:41.040
<v Speaker 2>journey after she realized she was in a marriage she

0:28:41.040 --> 0:28:43.920
<v Speaker 2>didn't want to be in, and that was my impetus

0:28:44.320 --> 0:28:47.400
<v Speaker 2>for me to feel comfortable in saying I didn't want

0:28:47.400 --> 0:28:49.480
<v Speaker 2>to be in my marriage. So Elizabeth Gilbert was a

0:28:49.560 --> 0:28:52.360
<v Speaker 2>huge part of my life and reading that book changed

0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:55.360
<v Speaker 2>my life. And then reading about how she went to Italy,

0:28:55.560 --> 0:28:59.320
<v Speaker 2>she went to India, and then I believe she ended

0:28:59.360 --> 0:29:01.200
<v Speaker 2>up in Bali, and that is in the end of

0:29:01.200 --> 0:29:03.080
<v Speaker 2>the book. For any of you guys who have read this,

0:29:03.160 --> 0:29:05.480
<v Speaker 2>in any women, I know so many of you have

0:29:05.520 --> 0:29:10.360
<v Speaker 2>read this book. She finds what she thinks is the

0:29:10.360 --> 0:29:13.040
<v Speaker 2>love of her life and this Brazilian man they get

0:29:13.080 --> 0:29:15.680
<v Speaker 2>married at the end of the book, and it's beautiful

0:29:15.720 --> 0:29:18.680
<v Speaker 2>and it's amazing, and that's a great, beautiful love story.

0:29:18.720 --> 0:29:22.160
<v Speaker 1>But that is where story is supposed to end. We're

0:29:22.240 --> 0:29:23.480
<v Speaker 1>done to.

0:29:23.400 --> 0:29:27.680
<v Speaker 3>Your point, right, Yeah, that is the problem is too

0:29:28.000 --> 0:29:34.040
<v Speaker 3>often in TV, in books, in movies, the ends there.

0:29:35.800 --> 0:29:39.360
<v Speaker 2>You asked me today, you were like, what story what

0:29:39.520 --> 0:29:43.960
<v Speaker 2>movie do you all? As in Women Read or Love

0:29:44.120 --> 0:29:48.320
<v Speaker 2>or a doore that actually focuses on what happens after

0:29:48.400 --> 0:29:52.200
<v Speaker 2>you meet the supposed love of your life, what happens

0:29:52.240 --> 0:29:55.640
<v Speaker 2>after you meet your soulmate? There aren't that many rom

0:29:55.720 --> 0:29:59.959
<v Speaker 2>coms that do that, but I actually to Elizabeth Gilbert's story.

0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:02.560
<v Speaker 2>I just want to point out, because I've actually talked

0:30:02.560 --> 0:30:05.440
<v Speaker 2>about this a lot with you. She was in this

0:30:05.600 --> 0:30:09.320
<v Speaker 2>marriage with the Brazilian man she married, and long story short,

0:30:09.680 --> 0:30:13.160
<v Speaker 2>she realized once her best friend who she had been

0:30:13.680 --> 0:30:16.080
<v Speaker 2>best friends with for years and years and years.

0:30:16.080 --> 0:30:18.520
<v Speaker 1>It's so sorry to stop you there what but let's

0:30:18.600 --> 0:30:22.240
<v Speaker 1>be clear to everybody. They eat pray love story, you know,

0:30:22.800 --> 0:30:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and the guy she married, and everything worked out wonderfully

0:30:26.880 --> 0:30:30.840
<v Speaker 1>with at the end of that buttoned up story, what happened.

0:30:31.160 --> 0:30:35.160
<v Speaker 2>They got divorced. She ends up marrying her best friend,

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:40.720
<v Speaker 2>who is a female, and she made that decision once

0:30:40.760 --> 0:30:43.959
<v Speaker 2>she realized her best friend was dying. And it's you know,

0:30:44.680 --> 0:30:48.040
<v Speaker 2>I encourage everyone to, Oh my god, Oprah's super soul

0:30:48.080 --> 0:30:52.200
<v Speaker 2>conversations with Elizabeth Gilbert talking about that relationship and talking

0:30:52.240 --> 0:30:56.960
<v Speaker 2>about the little bit of time she had left with her.

0:30:57.040 --> 0:30:59.080
<v Speaker 2>It was a beautiful, beautiful love story, but just there

0:30:59.120 --> 0:31:02.160
<v Speaker 2>were so many less and all of it. And I'm

0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:09.240
<v Speaker 2>just amazed by people's willingness, and I'm inspired by people's

0:31:09.320 --> 0:31:14.200
<v Speaker 2>willingness to be vulnerable, to expose Hey, here's what I

0:31:14.320 --> 0:31:18.320
<v Speaker 2>thought was right, Here's what I thought was my happy ending,

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:21.720
<v Speaker 2>and actually here's what it ended up being.

0:31:21.920 --> 0:31:24.800
<v Speaker 1>Okay that I have not that rich Eat Pray Love.

0:31:25.160 --> 0:31:28.440
<v Speaker 1>I have not seen Eat Pray Love the movie, but

0:31:28.640 --> 0:31:32.680
<v Speaker 1>it is my favorite book and my favorite movie right now.

0:31:33.120 --> 0:31:36.560
<v Speaker 1>And I say that because Sweeart, you know, our journeys

0:31:36.600 --> 0:31:39.440
<v Speaker 1>are lives. To think of a story that now so

0:31:39.520 --> 0:31:44.480
<v Speaker 1>many people find to be like the ultimate redemption story.

0:31:44.680 --> 0:31:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Love story didn't end the way you saw it end

0:31:48.520 --> 0:31:52.800
<v Speaker 1>because life just doesn't come in that kind of a package.

0:31:52.880 --> 0:31:55.920
<v Speaker 1>And I just I applaud. I have no idea, and

0:31:55.960 --> 0:31:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I asked you earlier about the author's name. Even I

0:32:00.320 --> 0:32:04.960
<v Speaker 1>love this woman and I love this story. I have

0:32:05.080 --> 0:32:10.000
<v Speaker 1>not I love it because it it's authentic and it's

0:32:10.080 --> 0:32:11.360
<v Speaker 1>how life goes something and.

0:32:11.360 --> 0:32:15.080
<v Speaker 2>It's where she was at that time, and she shared

0:32:15.120 --> 0:32:18.200
<v Speaker 2>it as it was happening, and it didn't end the

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:21.800
<v Speaker 2>way she wanted it to end. It didn't end the

0:32:21.880 --> 0:32:25.200
<v Speaker 2>way people hoped it would end. And I think that's

0:32:25.280 --> 0:32:29.000
<v Speaker 2>kind of where the beauty lies. But it still can

0:32:29.120 --> 0:32:34.160
<v Speaker 2>be beautiful even though it wasn't what we all, including

0:32:34.200 --> 0:32:38.080
<v Speaker 2>Elizabeth Gilbert, wanted it to be, and yet it still

0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:42.400
<v Speaker 2>ended the way it did, and there were beautiful moments

0:32:42.880 --> 0:32:46.360
<v Speaker 2>that happened, and there were so many lessons that were

0:32:46.440 --> 0:32:49.360
<v Speaker 2>learned along the way, and I think that is why

0:32:49.400 --> 0:32:53.800
<v Speaker 2>we're here. I've just always believed this through and I've

0:32:53.840 --> 0:32:57.080
<v Speaker 2>been forced to really re examine it through all of

0:32:57.280 --> 0:33:00.840
<v Speaker 2>this thing we called life. We have to learn how

0:33:00.880 --> 0:33:05.120
<v Speaker 2>to appreciate, and we have to learn when it's important

0:33:05.120 --> 0:33:10.600
<v Speaker 2>to learn, and we have to suspend expectations. And that's

0:33:10.640 --> 0:33:12.720
<v Speaker 2>so easy to say and so hard to do. And

0:33:12.760 --> 0:33:15.720
<v Speaker 2>we all expect things to be a certain way, but

0:33:15.760 --> 0:33:19.120
<v Speaker 2>when they don't go that way, that's how we learn

0:33:19.160 --> 0:33:19.480
<v Speaker 2>and grow.

0:33:19.600 --> 0:33:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Obviously, that's where I'm we're wed. You and I are

0:33:21.720 --> 0:33:25.560
<v Speaker 1>coming from that from our experience. But it's just it's

0:33:25.600 --> 0:33:28.160
<v Speaker 1>fascinating that a story that so many people find to

0:33:28.320 --> 0:33:32.600
<v Speaker 1>be this wonderful story with a beautiful button at the end,

0:33:33.280 --> 0:33:36.640
<v Speaker 1>actually took a twist. It's just how life is, and

0:33:37.200 --> 0:33:39.760
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate it. I love, love love. I had no

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:43.719
<v Speaker 1>idea until this trip that that's how the story ended. Yeah,

0:33:43.760 --> 0:33:45.960
<v Speaker 1>and it may not be over necessarily. I don't know

0:33:45.960 --> 0:33:47.440
<v Speaker 1>where she is in her life and what's going on.

0:33:47.720 --> 0:33:52.560
<v Speaker 1>It just I I love that story now. I absolutely

0:33:52.560 --> 0:33:52.840
<v Speaker 1>love it.

0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:56.200
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to watch the movie with you. Love boy,

0:33:57.520 --> 0:34:00.520
<v Speaker 2>you know you love rom coms.

0:34:02.360 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, never mind one. You and I have talked about

0:34:07.880 --> 0:34:10.480
<v Speaker 1>what we have seen on this trip oftentimes is certainly

0:34:10.520 --> 0:34:13.000
<v Speaker 1>with the heat here. There's just a lot of frustration

0:34:13.480 --> 0:34:16.280
<v Speaker 1>that comes with a lot of it. We've seen families.

0:34:16.400 --> 0:34:19.040
<v Speaker 1>I talked about it today, they walking, they're walking in

0:34:19.080 --> 0:34:19.960
<v Speaker 1>single file.

0:34:20.239 --> 0:34:23.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because I was like, I don't want you near me,

0:34:24.560 --> 0:34:26.160
<v Speaker 2>so we'll just be single file.

0:34:26.320 --> 0:34:30.200
<v Speaker 1>We have literally seen families of five with the mom

0:34:30.280 --> 0:34:33.239
<v Speaker 1>in the front, the dadds.

0:34:32.760 --> 0:34:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Or in the back. A lot of times too.

0:34:34.719 --> 0:34:38.439
<v Speaker 1>You know you're right, has been the back. It's been

0:34:38.520 --> 0:34:41.680
<v Speaker 1>funny to watch. But Robot and I finally had our

0:34:41.800 --> 0:34:47.440
<v Speaker 1>moment of frustration, a moment of a heated moment. And

0:34:47.560 --> 0:34:49.680
<v Speaker 1>when I say heated, it was heated on her end.

0:34:49.719 --> 0:34:53.160
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't even hot. But she snapped at me on

0:34:53.160 --> 0:34:59.480
<v Speaker 1>this vacation and it was we were just a couple

0:34:59.520 --> 0:35:01.359
<v Speaker 1>of days. We did pretty good.

0:35:02.800 --> 0:35:04.480
<v Speaker 2>I think we got nine days in.

0:35:05.320 --> 0:35:07.400
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't that hard of a snapping at me, even

0:35:07.640 --> 0:35:10.640
<v Speaker 1>thank you. It wasn't no, no, no, And then snapped is

0:35:10.680 --> 0:35:13.960
<v Speaker 1>a that's a tough way to say it, but you did.

0:35:14.360 --> 0:35:18.000
<v Speaker 1>I was not that offended. I say that offended. Do

0:35:18.040 --> 0:35:20.080
<v Speaker 1>you see I was measured there. I wasn't that offended

0:35:20.080 --> 0:35:23.920
<v Speaker 1>by it. But it has been every single day we've

0:35:24.760 --> 0:35:28.400
<v Speaker 1>woken up here on our phone it says severe weather

0:35:28.520 --> 0:35:31.200
<v Speaker 1>alert because it's been that hot.

0:35:31.440 --> 0:35:38.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I mean it's like like it's been excruciating. I

0:35:38.600 --> 0:35:40.520
<v Speaker 2>think would be a good way to put it.

0:35:40.560 --> 0:35:44.000
<v Speaker 1>And I went out today in a double breasded jacket.

0:35:44.400 --> 0:35:49.040
<v Speaker 2>I was amazed. But you did have sweat dripping down

0:35:49.120 --> 0:35:52.040
<v Speaker 2>your face in certain moments, and I was applauding. I

0:35:52.080 --> 0:35:54.839
<v Speaker 2>was like, damn, he still has that jacket on and

0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:58.080
<v Speaker 2>there is sweat dripping down his face. Committed to that

0:35:58.239 --> 0:36:04.200
<v Speaker 2>amazing committee. It was a good rose linen jagged. You

0:36:04.280 --> 0:36:08.719
<v Speaker 2>looked amazing. I was impressed. I could never have lost.

0:36:08.880 --> 0:36:11.760
<v Speaker 1>All the Italian men will walk around in full suits.

0:36:12.040 --> 0:36:13.840
<v Speaker 2>They were, why am I.

0:36:16.080 --> 0:36:22.640
<v Speaker 1>But it's today we were out or I'm not. It

0:36:22.680 --> 0:36:24.080
<v Speaker 1>wasn't yesterday, the day before.

0:36:24.520 --> 0:36:26.560
<v Speaker 2>It was a couple of days here, Lawrence, it was Laurence,

0:36:26.600 --> 0:36:27.160
<v Speaker 2>was Florence.

0:36:27.280 --> 0:36:32.680
<v Speaker 1>It was Florence, Okay, Florence. As trains trans translation trying

0:36:32.680 --> 0:36:36.160
<v Speaker 1>to get a car right. Yes, okay, so you it's

0:36:36.239 --> 0:36:40.560
<v Speaker 1>everybody struggling with an ober or whatever, but here it's

0:36:40.600 --> 0:36:44.720
<v Speaker 1>oftentimes you see couples together and there's one person staring

0:36:44.760 --> 0:36:46.759
<v Speaker 1>down at the phone trying to get directions, any other

0:36:46.760 --> 0:36:50.640
<v Speaker 1>person staring standing next to them, just looking around aimlessly

0:36:51.160 --> 0:36:52.000
<v Speaker 1>and wandering around.

0:36:52.160 --> 0:36:53.120
<v Speaker 2>My partner has it.

0:36:53.400 --> 0:36:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, So we get out and Robes is trying to

0:36:59.200 --> 0:37:05.560
<v Speaker 1>find the and she starts walking us the wrong direction, shocking,

0:37:05.760 --> 0:37:10.360
<v Speaker 1>complete opposite direction of where we should be. And we

0:37:10.400 --> 0:37:15.560
<v Speaker 1>get outside and again it's hundred degrees here. She's where

0:37:16.280 --> 0:37:21.560
<v Speaker 1>gets frustrated and I say, baby, let's make lemonade. Let's

0:37:21.600 --> 0:37:25.040
<v Speaker 1>figure this out. What do you need? And me offering

0:37:25.040 --> 0:37:29.000
<v Speaker 1>that suggestion was met with I will let you describe it.

0:37:29.880 --> 0:37:31.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't wait, I don't know what to say.

0:37:31.840 --> 0:37:32.279
<v Speaker 1>Remember this?

0:37:32.440 --> 0:37:33.359
<v Speaker 2>No, what did I say?

0:37:33.640 --> 0:37:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god? You don't remember snapping?

0:37:36.840 --> 0:37:37.040
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:37:37.840 --> 0:37:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh, never mind, let's skip this section of the podcast.

0:37:41.160 --> 0:37:43.520
<v Speaker 2>You remember, I don't remember.

0:37:43.760 --> 0:37:46.480
<v Speaker 1>This was the you don't remember.

0:37:47.200 --> 0:37:49.560
<v Speaker 2>This might be selective memory.

0:37:49.840 --> 0:37:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Man, Lets go. You finally snapped said I'm trying to

0:37:55.120 --> 0:37:56.799
<v Speaker 1>I got it, and you wouldn't let.

0:37:56.800 --> 0:38:00.600
<v Speaker 2>Me help you like me? That's sounds like me.

0:38:00.640 --> 0:38:02.120
<v Speaker 1>But you wouldn't let me help you. And at that

0:38:02.160 --> 0:38:05.040
<v Speaker 1>point I just stepped away. I didn't say after you

0:38:05.080 --> 0:38:08.080
<v Speaker 1>said that, I didn't say another word. That's probably you

0:38:08.120 --> 0:38:09.320
<v Speaker 1>don't remember.

0:38:08.880 --> 0:38:16.839
<v Speaker 2>This because that's selective memory, and because maybe you didn't react. No,

0:38:17.120 --> 0:38:18.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember.

0:38:18.680 --> 0:38:20.600
<v Speaker 1>But in all of the time we've been here, and

0:38:20.640 --> 0:38:22.560
<v Speaker 1>we have seen a lot of fights, We've seen a

0:38:22.560 --> 0:38:25.279
<v Speaker 1>lot of barking and people and doing things. You and

0:38:25.360 --> 0:38:29.640
<v Speaker 1>I have not had a single issue except that moment.

0:38:34.560 --> 0:38:38.920
<v Speaker 2>It's so funny that I don't remember. I'm sorry.

0:38:38.920 --> 0:38:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you see what I'm dealing with, folks?

0:38:40.280 --> 0:38:40.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry.

0:38:42.160 --> 0:38:46.680
<v Speaker 1>She doesn't even remember the time she heard I honestly

0:38:46.920 --> 0:38:51.240
<v Speaker 1>don't remember it. But she offends, the time that she hurts,

0:38:51.360 --> 0:38:55.239
<v Speaker 1>the time that she just crushes my soul. Wait, we.

0:38:56.920 --> 0:38:58.600
<v Speaker 2>Wh wow are.

0:38:58.560 --> 0:39:01.120
<v Speaker 1>You and this was not I can't blame this on alcohol.

0:39:01.160 --> 0:39:02.560
<v Speaker 1>You were not six at the time.

0:39:02.760 --> 0:39:05.400
<v Speaker 2>You were You didn't tell me you were gonna I

0:39:05.440 --> 0:39:09.080
<v Speaker 2>have no memory of that. I apologize.

0:39:10.239 --> 0:39:12.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't apologize or something. You don't even remember doing

0:39:21.520 --> 0:39:24.640
<v Speaker 1>one spot we went to, and I guess a lot

0:39:24.640 --> 0:39:32.360
<v Speaker 1>of people will understand that Napoli Naples is a is

0:39:32.560 --> 0:39:39.960
<v Speaker 1>absolutely a wedding destination, and there's something about it. When

0:39:40.360 --> 0:39:42.959
<v Speaker 1>we got there, I got wrapped up. I got caught

0:39:43.040 --> 0:39:48.040
<v Speaker 1>up in Naples, and they were everywhere you look that

0:39:48.280 --> 0:39:52.000
<v Speaker 1>was get married here, or there was a shop that

0:39:52.040 --> 0:39:56.480
<v Speaker 1>you could buy a dress or tucks or it was.

0:39:56.920 --> 0:40:00.680
<v Speaker 1>It was a very very very very very low key Vegas.

0:40:00.920 --> 0:40:03.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a place where people fly into to go to

0:40:04.000 --> 0:40:11.760
<v Speaker 2>the Amalfi Coast, so positano a mally reveloo. There's a big, big, big,

0:40:11.800 --> 0:40:15.040
<v Speaker 2>big wedding destinations. So that makes a lot of sense.

0:40:15.120 --> 0:40:18.520
<v Speaker 2>Like you fly into Naples, you get all the wedding

0:40:18.560 --> 0:40:21.680
<v Speaker 2>stuff and then you either get married there and then

0:40:21.719 --> 0:40:25.640
<v Speaker 2>go on honeymoon on the Malfi coast. But it totally

0:40:25.640 --> 0:40:30.040
<v Speaker 2>makes sense that they've got a wedding destination situation.

0:40:30.280 --> 0:40:32.560
<v Speaker 1>Is that where you want to get married? Is that

0:40:32.640 --> 0:40:36.560
<v Speaker 1>where you've always wanted to get married? No, No, where

0:40:36.560 --> 0:40:37.320
<v Speaker 1>you want to get married.

0:40:38.560 --> 0:40:41.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't care where we get married. I actually don't.

0:40:42.000 --> 0:40:44.080
<v Speaker 2>I would the honeymoon. I will have a say in,

0:40:44.239 --> 0:40:45.720
<v Speaker 2>but I don't care where we get married.

0:40:45.800 --> 0:40:46.719
<v Speaker 1>Then where's the honeymoon?

0:40:46.719 --> 0:40:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Need to be somewhere over water. I want one of

0:40:50.680 --> 0:40:51.680
<v Speaker 2>those huts over there.

0:40:52.200 --> 0:40:52.879
<v Speaker 1>Over water.

0:40:53.160 --> 0:40:54.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I want to be in one of those huts.

0:40:54.719 --> 0:40:57.279
<v Speaker 2>I've never done, like that hut over water thing.

0:40:57.600 --> 0:40:59.600
<v Speaker 1>You don't care where we get married, but you care

0:40:59.760 --> 0:41:05.480
<v Speaker 1>where honeymoon. Yeah, okay, but there was about thirty seconds ago.

0:41:05.560 --> 0:41:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Anybody listening will go, wow, this sounds like a foregone

0:41:08.040 --> 0:41:09.400
<v Speaker 1>conclusion that they're getting married.

0:41:11.200 --> 0:41:13.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's crazy not to think about the future

0:41:13.920 --> 0:41:17.360
<v Speaker 2>when you're with somebody who you love, like, of course

0:41:17.440 --> 0:41:25.239
<v Speaker 2>you want to. That's like a human experience to imagine

0:41:25.800 --> 0:41:28.280
<v Speaker 2>how you're going to spend the rest of your life. So, yes,

0:41:28.480 --> 0:41:30.279
<v Speaker 2>I think about it.

0:41:32.239 --> 0:41:36.680
<v Speaker 1>We are. It's it has been interesting, it has been fascinating,

0:41:36.719 --> 0:41:38.759
<v Speaker 1>and it's been a little difficult, to be honest with you.

0:41:40.440 --> 0:41:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not used to not talking to Sabine.

0:41:42.800 --> 0:41:43.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and.

0:41:45.880 --> 0:41:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Our kids in New York are have been traveling the

0:41:51.360 --> 0:41:54.280
<v Speaker 1>whole time. We've been traveling to where you and I especially,

0:41:54.360 --> 0:41:57.239
<v Speaker 1>only playing trips around when the kids are going to.

0:41:57.160 --> 0:41:59.680
<v Speaker 2>Be otherwise occupied.

0:41:59.800 --> 0:42:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Right, So your girls have been traveling around Europe the

0:42:02.719 --> 0:42:05.640
<v Speaker 1>whole time we have been here in Italy, and then

0:42:06.160 --> 0:42:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Sabine has been in uh A camp summer camp at

0:42:10.520 --> 0:42:16.680
<v Speaker 1>summer camp. So that has been actually, you know, that

0:42:16.760 --> 0:42:19.480
<v Speaker 1>more than anybody else. You know, you know, my relationship

0:42:19.520 --> 0:42:22.360
<v Speaker 1>is being better than anybody. So it's been really I

0:42:22.400 --> 0:42:23.839
<v Speaker 1>have not been able to speak to.

0:42:23.760 --> 0:42:27.640
<v Speaker 2>My child, but you've been sending her Amazon care packages

0:42:27.760 --> 0:42:32.080
<v Speaker 2>to day. I'm like, she's got to be either the

0:42:32.080 --> 0:42:35.919
<v Speaker 2>most beloved kidding camp because she's like the cool girl

0:42:35.960 --> 0:42:39.640
<v Speaker 2>who gets the package every day, or everyone's gonna hate

0:42:39.640 --> 0:42:45.120
<v Speaker 2>her for it because you're giving her care package every day.

0:42:46.360 --> 0:42:50.040
<v Speaker 2>It's a lot, might be a little bit too. Tell

0:42:50.080 --> 0:42:55.839
<v Speaker 2>me that baby.

0:42:53.600 --> 0:42:54.919
<v Speaker 1>How many wait?

0:42:55.040 --> 0:42:58.319
<v Speaker 2>How many have you sent her? A lot?

0:42:58.520 --> 0:43:02.400
<v Speaker 1>It's been a little bit like, maybe, why don't you

0:43:02.520 --> 0:43:03.120
<v Speaker 1>tell me it.

0:43:03.200 --> 0:43:08.439
<v Speaker 2>Was a lot too? At the most? What have you said?

0:43:08.520 --> 0:43:10.000
<v Speaker 1>But it's a three week camp?

0:43:10.200 --> 0:43:12.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so I know that my girls run a three

0:43:12.880 --> 0:43:16.480
<v Speaker 2>week camp. I sent them like a care package a week,

0:43:16.560 --> 0:43:17.640
<v Speaker 2>so two they each.

0:43:17.440 --> 0:43:20.560
<v Speaker 1>Got a week. Oh yeah yeah.

0:43:20.960 --> 0:43:23.920
<v Speaker 2>And most people might just get one a camp.

0:43:24.120 --> 0:43:27.360
<v Speaker 1>She's getting three or four a week right now. Oh

0:43:27.400 --> 0:43:28.520
<v Speaker 1>that's bad. Okay.

0:43:28.800 --> 0:43:34.320
<v Speaker 2>The problem is you're also setting a precedent for what years?

0:43:34.600 --> 0:43:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, my child, come on, okay, rolles you again.

0:43:41.680 --> 0:43:45.759
<v Speaker 1>You know better than anybody what my whole day from

0:43:45.800 --> 0:43:47.640
<v Speaker 1>the time I wake up and I go to bed

0:43:47.680 --> 0:43:48.719
<v Speaker 1>at night is.

0:43:48.719 --> 0:43:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Around subie, It's true.

0:43:51.040 --> 0:43:54.680
<v Speaker 1>What is she doing by seven thirty? Right? Where is

0:43:54.680 --> 0:43:56.120
<v Speaker 1>she going to walking to.

0:43:56.120 --> 0:44:02.440
<v Speaker 4>School to sabine or like, honestly, it's good, it's good,

0:44:02.520 --> 0:44:06.799
<v Speaker 4>it's you know what it is. This is exercise for preparents,

0:44:06.920 --> 0:44:11.160
<v Speaker 4>for kids to prepare for the ultimate separation.

0:44:11.760 --> 0:44:13.760
<v Speaker 2>And I know that sounds like a Debbie Downer moment,

0:44:14.200 --> 0:44:17.120
<v Speaker 2>but I say this as a woman who is about

0:44:17.320 --> 0:44:21.120
<v Speaker 2>to be a complete empty nester. So summer camp, if

0:44:21.160 --> 0:44:23.759
<v Speaker 2>you are so privileged to be able to afford it,

0:44:23.800 --> 0:44:28.640
<v Speaker 2>which is an amazing thing, is a I feel like

0:44:28.719 --> 0:44:34.440
<v Speaker 2>that helped me in a way prepare for my kids

0:44:34.520 --> 0:44:37.400
<v Speaker 2>to leave me. It's like you have to you have

0:44:37.480 --> 0:44:41.480
<v Speaker 2>to recognize that they are like your whole goal is

0:44:41.520 --> 0:44:47.560
<v Speaker 2>to make them amazing independent versions of yourself like they are.

0:44:48.160 --> 0:44:51.200
<v Speaker 2>So this is that's why they have strict rules of camp.

0:44:51.680 --> 0:44:56.719
<v Speaker 2>No phones, no text messaging. You have to be removed.

0:44:57.040 --> 0:45:00.560
<v Speaker 2>Your kid has to know and start to get used

0:45:00.560 --> 0:45:02.680
<v Speaker 2>to moments of life without you.

0:45:03.160 --> 0:45:06.640
<v Speaker 1>And that's but I imagine a moment in life where

0:45:06.680 --> 0:45:09.680
<v Speaker 1>you're not speaking to your child a week, two weeks,

0:45:10.360 --> 0:45:13.800
<v Speaker 1>and again, I just it's new, it's not again. So

0:45:13.920 --> 0:45:17.200
<v Speaker 1>being is a different monster with me. It's not a

0:45:17.920 --> 0:45:21.440
<v Speaker 1>we are constantly engaged day in day out, you know

0:45:21.520 --> 0:45:22.320
<v Speaker 1>that idea?

0:45:22.440 --> 0:45:24.040
<v Speaker 2>Anybody, Oh my god, Yes.

0:45:24.000 --> 0:45:27.480
<v Speaker 1>If I don't hear back from spe in fifteen minutes,

0:45:27.760 --> 0:45:29.280
<v Speaker 1>like oh my god, what's happening?

0:45:29.320 --> 0:45:31.759
<v Speaker 2>So is this this is a big This is a deal,

0:45:31.880 --> 0:45:33.640
<v Speaker 2>And I get that, and that is a that is

0:45:33.680 --> 0:45:37.160
<v Speaker 2>a big It's a struggle. Oh god, I know. I

0:45:37.280 --> 0:45:40.200
<v Speaker 2>am a few years ahead of you and I am

0:45:40.280 --> 0:45:42.680
<v Speaker 2>struggling with that in a different way. And I get it.

0:45:42.680 --> 0:45:48.080
<v Speaker 2>It's like a gradual, eventual thing that us as parents

0:45:48.120 --> 0:45:50.840
<v Speaker 2>all have to acknowledge. And I do think this is

0:45:50.840 --> 0:45:53.360
<v Speaker 2>something that I will bring back to my parents that

0:45:53.440 --> 0:45:56.400
<v Speaker 2>I love. They loved my brother and me, and they

0:45:56.480 --> 0:46:00.080
<v Speaker 2>talked about this with us in our podcast. But this

0:46:00.120 --> 0:46:02.640
<v Speaker 2>is another reason why investing in the person in the

0:46:02.719 --> 0:46:09.600
<v Speaker 2>relationship you're with you baby is so important. Husband's wives,

0:46:09.800 --> 0:46:13.719
<v Speaker 2>boyfriend's girlfriends. Your kids are so important and the number

0:46:13.760 --> 0:46:17.200
<v Speaker 2>one most important thing in your life. But they are

0:46:17.200 --> 0:46:22.680
<v Speaker 2>with you for about twenty years and that's awesome, and yes,

0:46:22.719 --> 0:46:25.200
<v Speaker 2>of course they're with you later in life. But like,

0:46:26.239 --> 0:46:28.960
<v Speaker 2>if you don't invest in the people who are there

0:46:29.080 --> 0:46:32.960
<v Speaker 2>with you, you know, investing in them. You just have

0:46:33.040 --> 0:46:35.359
<v Speaker 2>to balance that. Like I think people forget about how

0:46:35.400 --> 0:46:40.080
<v Speaker 2>important it is. Like I'm I'm with you now for

0:46:40.200 --> 0:46:44.120
<v Speaker 2>the next well as many years as I'm allowed.

0:46:44.480 --> 0:46:48.640
<v Speaker 5>But that's like I don't want to be there is

0:46:48.680 --> 0:46:51.920
<v Speaker 5>the headline, Go ahead, you want to write the headline. No,

0:46:52.239 --> 0:46:55.920
<v Speaker 5>but I just like every now together until.

0:46:56.200 --> 0:47:00.600
<v Speaker 2>As many years as I'm allowed as I'm allowed. Nice

0:47:00.760 --> 0:47:03.000
<v Speaker 2>for whatever reason it is, but I just think like

0:47:03.040 --> 0:47:06.000
<v Speaker 2>it's a it's a cool thing too to have these moments.

0:47:06.040 --> 0:47:10.239
<v Speaker 2>So I appreciate this vacation with you baby. We are

0:47:10.280 --> 0:47:16.400
<v Speaker 2>devoted to our daughters, obviously, but it's important to remember
