Okay, 40 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: that's actually not what we're here to talk about. 41 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 2: It's actually kind. 42 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: Is that? 43 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: Oh there talk? 44 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: So okay, Well, yeah, that was a very interesting transition 45 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: because I know what we're talking about. Okay, this is 46 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: one of those ones. There's definitely topics where I feel 47 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: like Chip and I go back and forth for like 48 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 1: a week and we're thinking, can we talk about this? 49 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: How do we talk about this. We have obviously grown 50 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 1: and changed, I would say as a podcast through the years, 51 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: and some of that has been great for people, and 52 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: some of that's been upsetting. But I have to go 53 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: with my own evolution, and I think you feel the 54 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: same way. And it's like, if I'm trying to do 55 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: certain things in my personal life, I have to do that. 56 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: I have to like include that in my work and 57 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: the conversations I'm having publicly and what we're bringing to 58 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: the world. Like I personally feel like I need that 59 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: to all be in alignment, if that makes sense. 60 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, I do love to poke fun, 61 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 3: but the older I get, the older I get, like 62 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 3: I would I much prefer to poke fun at my 63 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 3: friends who I love that. 64 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 2: No, I'm poking fun like it's not. 65 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 3: Fair to judge and make fun of people, circumstances whatever 66 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 3: that you really don't know anything about. 67 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: So well, let's get real here. You and I used 68 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: to do that on this podcast all the time. I'm 69 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: trying to sit here on some high fucking horse and 70 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: be like, oh, I'm above this everyone, but let me 71 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: tell you what happens. I mean, everyone knows what happened 72 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: to me. But it's like when something happens in your 73 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: life specifically, and I think you witnessed enough of that 74 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: with me, and also you've seen it with the clients 75 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: that you work with. In the way the media works 76 00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: in general, and it's so destructive to people's lives and 77 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: it's so not accurate that I think once you realize 78 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: how false and fake and straight up lies that are 79 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: in the news, you kind of go, wait a second, 80 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: like I can't condone this, I can't be a part 81 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: of this. And anything that we're talking about here pop 82 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: culture wise is actually just you know, we're trying not 83 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: to do the same thing that the news is doing 84 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: right now, which we think is all about clicks and 85 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: about like right the headlines and they'll say anything. 86 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: Just not just news either at social media. 87 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: And it's well, I think it's stemmed from social media. 88 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 3: And it's it's stemmed from the digitization of media because 89 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 3: it used to be. 90 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 2: You know, real nightly news. 91 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 3: There were like it was like real reporters doing real 92 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 3: stories that we're digging, same thing with newspapers and magazines. 93 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 3: But now that it's about like instant like get stuff 94 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 3: up quickly, a lot of that has been gone out 95 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 3: the window, you know, and it's it literally is about 96 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 3: getting clicks. Like I recognized it when I had a 97 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 3: client have something happen. 98 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 2: And it was legitimate. 99 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 3: Media outlets were stooping to the level of what normally 100 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: it would just be the tabloids saying. And it was 101 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,160 Speaker 3: really eye opening for me because I'm like, fuck these people, 102 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: We're never going to speak to them again, like they 103 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 3: are blacklisted. 104 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 2: You know. 105 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 3: It's it's one thing to tell an uncomfortable story, but 106 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 3: tell it with facts or at least with you know, 107 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: some humanity to it. And so I was able to 108 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 3: witness it, you know, very firsthand, like what clickbait does. 109 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 3: So it's like for everyone out there who's had to 110 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 3: be on the receiving end of that bullshit, like I 111 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 3: feel for you. 112 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: Thank you well.

I'll straight up say, good morning America. Referred 115 00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: to me as a home wrecker and straight upset. I 116 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: had an affair that I didn't have when I was 117 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: back on this reality show, and that was the moment, 118 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: Like it's one thing to have TMZ calling your phone 119 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: about shit that's what they're known for. It. Everyone knows that. 120 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: And even though I used to be a person that 121 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: believed that stories in the tabloids had at least half 122 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: a truth to it, and you know, I was like, oh, well, 123 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: they're not going to say something that's not doesn't have 124 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 1: some basis, Like you kind of convince yourself that maybe 125 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: it's not completely accurate, but there's some truth to it, 126 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: you know. And what I realized is that is actually 127 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: not true at all. And I don't think that we 128 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: as a society are aware of how much we're being 129 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: lied to, and like, this isn't supposed to be some conspiracy. 130 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: And I swear to god we'll get to the topic 131 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: in just a second.

They're not having their facts checked 139 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: at all, and they're just saying it as if it's 140 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: a truth. 141 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: Well, all they need is one source to be a scapegoat, 142 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 2: so they can just it can all fall on a 143 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 2: source who. 144 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: You can be a publicist of anyone by them. 145 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 3: And because of our laws, they are able to keep 146 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 3: them anonymous. 147 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: Exactly. 148 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 3: Those kind of laws were put into place to keep 149 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 3: the freedom of the press, like so that the press 150 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 3: wasn't scared to write the truth.

They're being bastardized to use those laws 152 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 3: to actually tell things that are untrue, right, rather than 153 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 3: actually do the work and find the truth. I don't 154 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 3: know if you'll remember this, but this was several years ago. 155 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 3: I lived in Los Angeles when it happened. But there 156 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 3: was a story that circulated because a website posted a 157 00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 3: picture of a receipt from a restaurant where Donald Trump 158 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 3: had gotten a burger and a coke and had tipped 159 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 3: ten thousand dollars, and all these news outlets picked it 160 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 3: up as if it were true, okay, and it became 161 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 3: this huge story and it was obviously a photoshop job 162 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 3: because Donald Trump was like, I wasn't even in Santa Monica, 163 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 3: that that's insane. 164 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 2: So it was something that was very easy. 165 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 1: That's a positive for him, and he was still just like, Okay, 166 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: that's not even yeah. 167 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: It's not even true. 168 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 3: And so it was just like it was I can't 169 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 3: remember the name of the website, but it's these two 170 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 3: brothers that launched what is now a very big website, 171 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 3: and it was one of their first posts, and it 172 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 3: just got them traction and it was this really smart 173 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 3: thing they did. 174 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 2: But it also proved that I mean, I think CNN 175 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: wrote about like legitimate. 176 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 3: Newsplaces picked up the story without trying to fact check 177 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 3: it for a second because they're like, oh, someone else 178 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 3: did that job well. 179 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: And also, I think your point is the website The 180 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: Tribe is a joke though, isn't it. Well, they just 181 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: I'm thinking of The Onion. 182 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, The Onion is a comedy website. The Tribe does 183 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 3: post a lot of like just Memei shit, but like 184 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 3: it's meant to be entertainment. But like that's how they 185 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 3: got a lot of eyeballs on their website to begin with. 186 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 3: Was that lie that they created. 187 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 1: That's crazy. Yeah, I mean I think you made such 188 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: a good point at the beginning of when we started 189 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: talking about this about nowadays. Two, there's such a rush 190 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,559 Speaker 1: to be the first and like we're so oversaturated. That's 191 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: the problem with everything, right, that's the I mean, it's 192 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: like it's changed streaming completely, It's changed everything in this 193 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: podcast world, has changed everything with social media world. Just 194 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: how oversaturated we are. I mean there at some point 195 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: it's gonna blow up, right, like it has to everything. 196 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: We can't kill it it. Yeah, like there's got to 197 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: be changes. And so anyway, one of the changes that 198 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: I really hope starts to happen is that if we 199 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: as a collective start to understand and I think it's happening, 200 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: that headline are not the truth. Like when you go 201 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: in and read stories, case in points, something I sent 202 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: you earlier that I'll talk about in a second, you're like, wait, 203 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: what the headline is literally the most misleading statement, And 204 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: if you go in and read the article, most of 205 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: the time there's no fact to it or no truth 206 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: to it, and that or that's just like in general, 207 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: like they were clearly trying to get you to click 208 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: on this, So anyway, I get that that's giving them clicks, 209 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: which then if you don't do that, then you believe 210 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: the headline and that's not real. So do your do 211 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: Jill do dill build dillagit wow, And you know, make 212 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: sure that what you're reading is true. But the other 213 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: thing that I've really struggled with with this topic, and 214 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: I'll just say, we're about to talk about the conjoined 215 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: twins that have been in the media recently, and one 216 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: of my big things is is I also experience this. 217 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: But then, you know, I've just observed it so much 218 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: in the last couple of years, how just like cruel 219 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: everyone is to everyone like there's no empathy. And you 220 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: and I had touched on this a while back when 221 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: that whole Will Smith Chris Rock thing happened, and I 222 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: was this random voice I think, you know, I got 223 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: like a little bit of heat for it because it 224 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: was like very opposite of what a lot of people 225 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: were saying. I wasn't trying to condone what Will Smith did. 226 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: I did think that he should not have slapped Chris 227 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: Rock on the oscars. However, wait was it the oscars? 228 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was okay. 229 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: However, I was like clearly witnessing a person that had 230 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: been traumatized in some capacity and was having a trauma 231 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: response like a reaction that we all have, whether you 232 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: want to admit it or not. And his happened to 233 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: be on a very public stage that would be mortifying, embarrassing, 234 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: my worst nightmare or all of the things. And I 235 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: was just asking that maybe we'd give will a little 236 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: grace because the way he handled it after, I thought 237 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: was very good and it was probably him. 238 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 2: So yeah, you have to raise those questions and just 239 00:11:58,760 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: to look. 240 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 1: At the human Peace said this, like the human piece 241 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: of any story, I mean. And so that's what I 242 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: want to keep in mind as we talk about this 243 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: topic today. We find it to be very fascinating and 244 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: these women to be very fascinating, but we don't want 245 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: it to come across like we are ever poking fun 246 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: at their situation or kind of making a spectacle of it. 247 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: I guess like we're just trying to talk about the 248 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: topic because it's interesting. 249 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 3: Well, you know, look, the Internet is cruel, and I 250 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 3: think in the same way that the same way that 251 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 3: the media wants clicks, everyone does. We're all conditioned to 252 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 3: like want likes, and you know, a snark does really 253 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: well on the Internet, and so I think different is 254 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 3: always when something is different, it's always. 255 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 2: A more immediate target. And so I think the. 256 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 3: Reaction to this marriage of one of the twins can 257 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 3: joined twins caused a snarky react on the internet, which 258 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 3: is really cruel, and because that was the reaction, that's 259 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 3: what we were seeing, so we were receiving that and 260 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 3: so on. My initial reaction was like holy shit and 261 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 3: to laugh. But then I stepped back and I was like, 262 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,559 Speaker 3: wait a minute, Like, these people are actual human, fucking. 263 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: Beings living a full fucking life, living. 264 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 2: A full life. 265 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 3: By the way, I'm not married, Like they've done something 266 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 3: I haven't done, or one of them has, And so 267 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: rather than make fun of them, I was like, I 268 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 3: need to sit back, do a little research and sort 269 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: of try to understand their journey. 270 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: I loved that though when you said that, of course, 271 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, it's speaking. 272 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: Some of some of the questions are like very plain 273 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 3: questions like how why? 274 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 2: What you know?

It's Abby Bowling is 326 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 3: her new name. 327 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm sorry. Abby got married. Britney is the one 328 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: that is learning how to navigate a relationship that her 329 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: sister is in, but she is obviously a part of 330 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: because they share a body. And I just said to 331 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: you like that is so much her sister signed up 332 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: for so much. Like what if her sister wants to 333 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: get married or go on a date? Right, Like does 334 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: does Abby go on a date with Brittany as a 335 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: married woman? 336 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 2: Do they double date? Do they double date? What do 337 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 2: they have group sex? 338 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. 339 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's all very interesting. 340 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: What if Britney can't fucking stand Josh exactly? I thought 341 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: about because they have different brains and so like, like 342 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: think about even your friends, Like I've never felt like 343 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: I want to be with any of my friend's partners. 344 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: I love them, like I adore them, but they're very 345 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: much for my friends, like they're my friends' types. They're 346 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 1: like you know what I'm saying, Like we all have 347 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: different types, and I guess that's a blessing. It would 348 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 1: suck if you had like the same type as your 349 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 1: best friend, right, But but I just can appreciate who 350 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: the person is, but I don't want to like be 351 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: in a partnership with them, if that makes sense. 352 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 3: Also, Brittany is she is there to witness every argument 353 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 3: that they have everything. And so when you think about 354 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 3: when I think about, like when my friends are going 355 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 3: through a really hard time in a relationship, Like I'm like, 356 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 3: I'm a cut a bit, like I am here. 357 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 1: For my friends one hundred person. 358 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: I am spewing hate, I am like ready to fight. 359 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: I mean, so I would slash tires anytime you're ready. 360 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 3: So it's like, how does Brittany have to internalize all 361 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 3: of that hear it and then forgive him when Abby's 362 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 3: saying it's fine, I love him, like you know, it's 363 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 3: because she is privy. 364 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,479 Speaker 1: To everything exactly and think about like, yeah, I mean 365 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: I think that. That's what I was trying to say about. 366 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: This is the biggest example of learning how to be 367 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: in a partnership. Also like compassionate communication, because they have 368 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 1: to be constantly communicating, I would think, or else the 369 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 1: resentment that all the things, like like you said, if 370 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: Abby gets in a fight with her husband and Brittany's like, 371 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: fuck that guy, like we're not taking him back, you know, 372 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: And Abby's like, yes, I am, like I love him, 373 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: but Brittany doesn't love him, so she's just fucking pissed, 374 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, it's so complex, Like I have so 375 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: much respect for the fact that that is how like 376 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: they live their lives completely together. That piece alone. I'm 377 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: just like the navigation of that is so impressive to me. 378 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's unbelievable. 379 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't even wrap my head around it. 380 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 3: Like yeah, and that's that's why I sort of wanted 381 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 3: to talk this because it's and right now as we're talking, 382 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 3: more questions are popping into my mind, like what like 383 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 3: even just the whole idea of like the argument situation. 384 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: The argument was a great point I. 385 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 2: Had that I thought about it. There's so many instances 386 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 2: in our lives. 387 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, like I mean, we all have our secrets, you 388 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 3: know what I mean that we don't share with people. 389 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 3: And it's like those two can't, right, they cannot have 390 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 3: they neither one of them have a single secret unless 391 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 3: it's just a thought. It's the only way that they 392 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 3: can have a secret. 393 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: I want to meet them so bad just to see, 394 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: like I want to know if there is a lot 395 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: of suppression happening, you know, are the because they're like, 396 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: that's the only private place that I have, so I 397 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: want to keep things to myself, Like do you develop 398 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 1: different sort of mental and emotional safety strategies than you know, 399 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 1: other other people? Because we like if I want to 400 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: get away from it, if I'm just like, ugh, I 401 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: just knew break from my friends, my partner, my family, anybody, 402 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: I can go take it. They can't take a break 403 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: from each other. And I guess they could be quiet, 404 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: but it's still like it's such a part of your 405 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: body too, Like imagine not having control of one side 406 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: of your body and having to rely on another person 407 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: for that in and of itself is a lot. But 408 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: then what if like y'all get in a fight and 409 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 1: she's like other, yes, or just like they're slapping each other, 410 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: or they're like can we go do this? And they're 411 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: gonna punish them, Like I'm like does that happen? Or 412 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,239 Speaker 1: you guys punish each other with not doing something that 413 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: the other one wants to do, you know, like how 414 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 1: does that work? Or what are the boundaries? It's just 415 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:48,479 Speaker 1: there's so many questions. It's so complex, and doesn't it 416 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: make you ultimately go wow, the fact that any of 417 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: us just wake up every day and we don't even 418 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: think about how often we take for granted that we 419 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: have like a body that function. Yes, just like the 420 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: fact that childbirth ever happens normally is shocking when you 421 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 1: really start to realize how much can go wrong or 422 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: like or just like different situations that can come about 423 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: like this, like well out. 424 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 2: Of many of us, and in my research, they still don't. 425 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 3: There's two ways that they believe this happens because it's 426 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 3: like one in one hundred thousand births okay, and most 427 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 3: don't survive they're still born, or one's born still born 428 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 3: and one's alive, or they last. 429 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: So then they have a surgery to remember. 430 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 3: They'll yeah, or you know, some of them only last 431 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 3: twenty four hours. All of them have to be born 432 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 3: be a cesarean because it's too dangerous for a vaginal birth, 433 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 3: but they're they The main theory is they think that 434 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 3: in the egg starts to split because identical twins. 435 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 2: The egg splits at like ten or twelve. 436 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,719 Speaker 3: Days station and they think that this is a delayed 437 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 3: spa where it's like fifteen sixteen days. 438 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: And it okay, it splits, yeah. 439 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 3: Or the other theory is that it's two fertilized eggs 440 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 3: that fuse. But the majority theory is that it's an 441 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 3: egg that doesn't split. 442 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 2: The whole way. 443 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: Just looking at them, I feel like the first theory, 444 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: don't you, because it's like the top did split it 445 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: seems like because they have separate heads and brains. You 446 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: know what I thought was bullshit. They had to pay 447 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: two tuitions but they only get paid one salary. 448 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 2: One salary. 449 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 1: Isn't that bullshit because it should just be equal either way, 450 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: like if they paid wish. So when they went to college, 451 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: they went they went all the way to call it 452 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: like through college. I believe, yes, they went through college 453 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 1: and paid two tuitions because technically it's two brains, so 454 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: it's two people. I guess, so yeah, and so they 455 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: would take separate tests and things like that. That would 456 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,679 Speaker 1: make that make sense though, because it's two brains. But 457 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: now they're school teachers and they're only paid one salary, 458 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: which makes sense for the fact that it's probably one classroom, 459 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: you know, like maybe they're covering the stuff that one 460 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: teacher would cover. I would guess that's how it's working. 461 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 2: I read that it was they teach different subjects though. 462 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 1: Then okay, see, right, that's two people. They should be 463 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: paid double salaries, like each of them should be paid 464 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: an individual salary. I think, right, that's crazy. 465 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 3: But then it gets where it gets hairy too, is 466 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 3: like insurance, like are they both insured or are they 467 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 3: ensuring one. 468 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 2: Body, it's because it is one body, two people. 469 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: So it's no, it's so complex, it's such. 470 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 3: A it's such an interesting thing to navigate because I'm 471 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 3: sure so many systems in our world are not created 472 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 3: for them to fit into. 473 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: No systems like there's not that's just no, there's not. 474 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 3: Everything's in abnormality for them, which is and they are 475 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 3: seeing they had a reality show. They're seemingly like quite 476 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 3: healthy and physically normal, you know, like. 477 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 2: They have normal desires. 478 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean there are very normal time or 479 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: I guess Abby's the one responding to a lot of 480 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: people have had questions about sex, and okay, this is 481 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 1: what I'm sorry, let me go back really quick. What 482 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 1: I did want to point out, I sent you an 483 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: article earlier. They got married or Abby got married in 484 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, and this is for some reason just 485 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: hitting the news today, and it's that's that was My 486 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: point is, like everyone is so we're just literally reading 487 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: headlines so quickly that all we think is, oh, this 488 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: can join twin just got married. She got married years ago, 489 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,239 Speaker 1: and for some reason social media got ahold of it, 490 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 1: like the last two weeks, and that just goes to 491 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: show how crazy social media can be. When something goes viral, 492 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: it goes viral, and this went viral for some reason recently, 493 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: but it's really not new news. They've been living this 494 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,679 Speaker 1: way since twenty twenty one with Abby's husband. But the 495 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: big question, and I said, I mean this was my 496 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: first thought was like, how does he have sex with that, 497 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: like with both of them, Like how does this work? 498 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: And you said, well they share a bottom half, so yeah, 499 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 1: And to me, I'm like, is that like traumatic for Brittany, 500 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 1: like what or is she enjoying it? Like I have 501 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 1: so many questions about that. 502 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 2: And so I apparently feel the orgasm, which is right. 503 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. So Abby has come out to answer questions because 504 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: I guess they're getting a lot of people asking about this, 505 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: and she said they do share whenever they climax, they 506 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 1: both feel it, and that when she's having sex with 507 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,239 Speaker 1: her husband, Brittany reads a book or puts on a 508 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: podcast or something. And I mean, this is where the 509 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 1: internet's tough, because there are a lot of funny like tiktoks, 510 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: you know, in these responses and people are a funny, 511 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: but it is where it gets to the point of 512 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: like all right, it's like, I mean, laugh to yourself, 513 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 1: I guess, but like we got to all like have 514 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 1: a little more sensitivity. This is these people's lives. So yeah, 515 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: I just can't imagine, like imagine what that would be 516 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: like if you and I were connected and you were 517 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: having sex with someone and I'm just like reading a 518 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: book right there. I wouldn't want to. 519 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 3: Cry, Right, Have you ever been in the room when 520 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 3: someone is having sex? 521 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: Not that I know of, Okay. 522 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 2: You witness I witnessed a friend having sex. 523 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: Like did they think you were asleep? 524 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 2: You know what? I really am not certain how it 525 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 2: happened because I mean it's been a long time. It 526 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 2: was like right after college. 527 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 1: I feel like we're all kind of sitting here going, well, 528 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 1: we're going to need more of this story. 529 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, and but I witnessed it and it 530 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 3: was kind of traumatic. 531 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. It was our friends and our 532 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: people that we would not normally see. Yeah, but they've 533 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: never not seen that either, because like even if they 534 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: were younger and they were like if they've ever masturbated, like. 535 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,959 Speaker 3: I don't know, well, I mean, if you think about it, 536 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 3: one of them controls the right hand the other one 537 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 3: controls the left right weight. One of them can masturbate 538 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 3: without the permission of the other one. 539 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: Oh, I didn't think about that, you know. 540 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 3: Like if one because if if masturbation comes from an 541 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 3: emotional place, yeah, then one might be in the mood 542 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 3: when the other one. 543 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: Does it come from an emotional place? I mean you're saying, 544 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: if isn't it like it does it's hormonally, it can be, yeah, 545 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: but something if you're corny, it's physical, right, but don't. 546 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,200 Speaker 3: You Yeah, but isn't there aren't there times? And maybe 547 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 3: this is the difference between a man and a woman too, 548 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 3: Like sometimes you just think like, oh, I'm gonna go 549 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 3: jerk off, you know what I mean. It's like and 550 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 3: it doesn't necessarily feel like something that's like a whole 551 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 3: body thing. 552 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 2: It's just like I'm bored. I'm gonna jerk off. 553 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think that's humans, right. 554 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 2: So there's in theory, Brittany could be bored and. 555 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: Be like like be sleeping and she wakes up and 556 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 1: she's like, bitch, are you at it again?

They'd say it physically feels like a 577 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: part of you so or emotionally feels like a part 578 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: of you. But these girls are feeling the physical, emotional, 579 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: the all of it. But they did they were born 580 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: in the same womb you know, they just came out. 581 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: They happen to come out different than other twins because 582 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: they're also in the same body. Yeah. 583 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 2: Oh, the layers, the layer, the biggest onion. 584 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: Like I know, and I've said complex eight hundred times, 585 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: but it really is so complex because, just like you said, 586 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: the second you start diving down the rabbit hole of thoughts, 587 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: another question comes up and you're just thinking, I don't know. 588 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 3: I think what's gripped the world with this is is 589 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 3: that it's not something most of us had ever thought of. 590 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: I just hadn't I really literally but met either. 591 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 3: And then the more I dug like it's weird, there's 592 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 3: like Reddit chats about like people talking about it. So 593 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 3: it's not something that hasn't been thought of before. I 594 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 3: personally had never thought of it. 595 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: So, but isn't that the point we're trying to make here, 596 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: that kind of what we are noticing in society and 597 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: what I'm trying to personally really pay attention to in 598 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: my own life. It's like we just get going in 599 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: all of these different directions. We get busy, we have 600 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: our lives, and I don't think there's anything wrong with that. 601 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: I think that's just a normal human thing, and it's 602 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: often that we just cannot put ourselves in other people's shoes, 603 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: and so when something new is brought to the table, 604 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 1: it seems like a better reaction would be curiosity. Like 605 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: sort of what we're trying to say here is like 606 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions like, yeah, oh my god, 607 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: I'd never thought about living a life like that. What 608 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: is that life? And that's why both of us enjoyed 609 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: doing this podcast is topics like that, getting to talk 610 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: to guests and learn about different lifestyles. But yeah, but 611 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: like instead of going, oh my god, ha ha ha, 612 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: look at this shit, what about if you took a 613 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: second and you were like kind and thought, huh, first 614 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 1: of all, gratitude that like my life on a day 615 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: to day, I just get to hop out of bed, 616 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: like I don't have those things to factor in that, 617 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: just as it's a lot of layers, like we've said, 618 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: so there's a sense of ease that I have that 619 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: they don't have. Right, and then also like societal pressures. 620 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: I mean I can't imagine what going to school was 621 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 1: like for them as kids and stuff, you know, like 622 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 1: just all of the different things of that. But maybe 623 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: if we could all try to come from a place 624 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: of like stay curious versus let's troll people. That would 625 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 1: change some things, you know. 626 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm just so fascinated by them and the 627 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 3: perseverance that takes to get to this age. 628 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 2: I mean that just made me have another. 629 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 3: Thought, like what what if one of them was suffering 630 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 3: from depression and wanted to kill herself. 631 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: Right, you know, well then the other one would have 632 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 1: to pep talker out of it, right. I did read 633 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: about the death piece of that though, because I was 634 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: also thinking do they die at the same time? What 635 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: if they didn't and they don't, So, I mean that 636 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: actually makes me want to cry because that I mean, right, 637 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: well they say that like it doesn't have to happen 638 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: that way, Like one of one person could die and 639 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: then you would either have to have a surgical situation, 640 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: like a surgical procedure to have that person removed. So 641 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: I mean, just the trauma in that losing your best 642 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: friend's sister, person who you've spent every minute with, and 643 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 1: then like having to survive. And then also the reason 644 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: they didn't have the surgery to start was because the 645 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: doctors told their parents it was super risky with However, 646 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: they were built to try to separate them. There was 647 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: a high likelihood they wouldn't survive, and so the parents 648 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: were like, well, we don't want to lose them, and 649 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 1: so they decided to keep them together. But yeah, the 650 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: death piece of it, and it's so hard, you know. 651 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: I mean, if they think they could get in the 652 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 3: car accident and one could end up brain dead, well right, 653 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 3: from some sort of physical trauma. 654 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 2: I know, it is just the what if?

And 665 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 3: as someone who grew up feeling other than I can 666 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 3: empathize with that, but I cannot get anywhere near the 667 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 3: idea of what they feel. 668 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: Well, because the reality of your situation is like if 669 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:20,359 Speaker 1: you exactly if you wanted to pretend, like like if 670 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 1: you were in a situation with a bunch of straight 671 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 1: guys like you're you could go in and be like, yeah, 672 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,320 Speaker 1: I'm a straight white dude too, Like you could literally 673 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: if you wanted to be the guy that just like 674 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: fit into the easiest scenario or what you felt like 675 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: you needed to in that moment, you could do it, 676 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: and so could I, and so could most humans. I mean, 677 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: it would be self abandonment, and we would hope, you know, 678 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: I would hope you wouldn't feel the need to do 679 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 1: that ever in your life, especially at this point.

First of all, this 684 00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: this went viral recently for no reason. They're just like 685 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: living their lives and all of a sudden, they're all 686 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,360 Speaker 1: over the news, the Internet, all these things, and it's like, yeah, 687 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 1: Abby's like, yeah, I'm happily married and having sex and 688 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: like she's like found her way in her life, and 689 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 1: I mean, I hope Brittany has too. We're just not 690 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 1: hearing as much about it, obviously, because we're talking about 691 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: Abby's situation with the wedding, But yeah, I don't know. 692 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 1: I mean I have a lot of questions about that 693 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 1: guy too, but that's a whole other podcast. 694 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 3: Well yeah, I mean that's funny because some of my 695 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 3: friends their reaction was like, what a fucked up individual. 696 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 3: But it's like, again, it takes a lot to look 697 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 3: at a situation and be like, I know this isn't normal, 698 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 3: but I'm in love with this person and I'm gonna 699 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 3: make it work. 700 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 1: Well, we just don't know him, so it's hard. It 701 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: would be hard to sit here and say anything because 702 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: we don't know the situation. We don't know the relationship, 703 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,879 Speaker 1: we don't know even how they met or anything about 704 00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 1: it him. So other than now, there's articles about some 705 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: paternity thing that really, if you get in and read 706 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 1: the articles, you're like, what this is not even is 707 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 1: this real?

Because what it is is there 712 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 3: is a paternity test. He has a child with his 713 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 3: ex wife that there's custody, you know, they share custody, 714 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 3: and then there's like a non custodial child that they're 715 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 3: assuming is the one that was born after they separated. Yes, 716 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 3: so the assumption is that the mom is saying, well, 717 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 3: you're not the dad or whatever. 718 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: But he may not be. 719 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 3: But he may not be, and you know what, like 720 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 3: they're not going to know the fucking answer until there's 721 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 3: a paternity test.
