1
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: And I invited you here. I thought I made myself

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: perfectly clear. When you're a guest to my home, you

3
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guests,

4
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:34,480
Speaker 1: you're presences presents enough. I already had too much stuff,

5
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: So how do you dare to surbey me?

6
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 2: Welcome to I said, no gifts. I'm Bridgard Wineker just

7
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 2: blacked out for just a millisecond there. I don't know

8
00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: I happened. My brain just short circuited. That's fine. What's

9
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 2: going on in my life. I made some slaw about

10
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: six days ago for myself, and I would just like

11
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 2: to put the word out that if you're going to

12
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 2: make slaw and you're not going to a picnic or

13
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 2: an event, just be prepared to be eating slaw for

14
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 2: the rest of your life. Full cabbage. It's I have

15
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 2: no complaints. It's just it will never end. And that's fine.

16
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: But that's just something to keep in mind. If you're

17
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,679
Speaker 2: not going to your church, picnic or your company, outing

18
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 2: prepare to have a lot of slaw. Let's get into

19
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 2: the podcast. Let's get the guest here. Maybe he can

20
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,839
Speaker 2: get things on track. Let's see what happens. It's trek

21
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: Davis Terrek, welcome to I said, no gifts.

22
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 3: Well, thank you for having me, And if I may,

23
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 3: I ain't nothing wrong with infinite.

24
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: Law, I think. I mean, there's no beginning or end.

25
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 3: There's no beginning or end. My wife right, But I

26
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: personally I am a fan of law. I know it's

27
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 3: one of those sides that a lot of people can

28
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 3: plain about. Like, I'm a slaw man, So if you

29
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 3: put slaw next to anything, I am a happy camper.

30
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 3: I think slaw is underrated. Slaw has been here since

31
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 3: the beginning of America, and it will be here for

32
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 3: the end, which might becoming.

33
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 2: S My slav will be here for the end of

34
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: the I mean, actually that could happen sooner than we think.

35
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 2: So right, this is true. I've got maybe two weeks

36
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 2: of slav. I put the end of America three weeks

37
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 2: from now, so that could work out.

38
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, it could totally work out. If you don't mind

39
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 3: me asking, are you red cabbage? Like, what's your slaw recipe?

40
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: Well, this is what happened. I went to the store.

41
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: I went to the grocery store looking for red cabbage,

42
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 2: found a green cabbage. Could not see the red cabbage anywhere,

43
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 2: bagged up the green cabbage, disappointed, but you know, reluctantly

44
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: was going to buy it. Headed out of the produce section,

45
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: I spotted the red cabbage and then became the person

46
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 2: who is taking the cabbage out of this sticky plastic bag,

47
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 2: returning to the green cabbage, getting the red cabbage. The

48
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 2: recipe that I was looking at called for both, but

49
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 2: that feels so unnecessary to pick one, just pick one.

50
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 2: I like the red cabbage. It's more fun to look

51
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: at it is.

52
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 4: It is a more festive color.

53
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

54
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 3: To me, slaw is like you know, slaw is the

55
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 3: aunt busting through the church doors first day of spring.

56
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 3: It is like you know, you know good eating is

57
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 3: about to happen when you see.

58
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 2: Some Redly, are you a greener red?

59
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 4: I'm a red cabbage. I am a red cabbage. Slaw.

60
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 4: I like the yeah.

61
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: I also like I think presentation as part of the package.

62
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: You know with law, especially sad looking slaw.

63
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 4: You don't.

64
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 3: And I think that is what has caused dispersions on

65
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 3: slaw in America and abroad. If slaw is happening like

66
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 3: that for so long, I think people go to diners.

67
00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 3: Being a man from Jersey myself. I know this experience.

68
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 3: You go to and you see the said like mayonnaise,

69
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 3: you know, very pale slaw and it's like, yeah, I

70
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 3: don't want that with my chicken fingers.

71
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 4: Like no, no, And I get it.

72
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 3: But if you put some red and task some red cabbage,

73
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 3: some ready to happen slaw.

74
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 4: You're in a good place.

75
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: Yes, one hundred percent agree. And I'm a very late

76
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 2: adopter of slaw because so much of my childhood and

77
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: teens and twenties were spent looking at old mayo covered slaw.

78
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 2: When I discovered you could do vinegar, you can put

79
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 2: other ingredients in. It doesn't just have to be old

80
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: cabbage in white slime.

81
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: No, it does not.

82
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 3: The carrot is the slaw's good friends, bring me carrot along,

83
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 3: you know.

84
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 2: And I've recently discovered the difference between cold slaw and slaw.

85
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 2: Do you have any idea what it is?

86
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 4: Oh? I do not, please, I'm like, this.

87
00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 2: Could be wrong, but I believe coldslaw is cabbage law

88
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 2: can be basically any vegetable, right right, right? Okay, So listener,

89
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 2: you've learned something free of charge. Yeah, I mean, you

90
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: can use that little piece of information at parties. At gatherings,

91
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 2: you'll be the life of the party.

92
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: Coast Law has been singing into the mic at the

93
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 3: karaoke bar for way too long. We don't we don't

94
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: hate Coast Law, but come on, you're singing the same

95
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 3: five songs again and again.

96
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:32,720

Speaker 2: I have a laser disc.

119
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 4: That is a laser disc. I have four laser discs.

120
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 2: Hanging up and where are the other ones? There?

121
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 3: So there's Redular, the Lost Arc, there's Doctor No Uh,

122
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 3: there's the Odd Couple starring Jack Levin and Walter Mathou,

123
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 3: and then there's the Lone Ranger. And the story behind

124
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,919
Speaker 3: that was, you know, living in Brooklyn. Those are old.

125
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 3: Those are from my broke days in Brooklyn, so tell

126
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 3: them out yesterday. But living in Brooklyn, and yeah, I

127
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 3: used to live in Crown Heights and there was just

128
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 3: in the middle of the street a mountain, a pile

129
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 3: of laser discs.

130
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 4: But it was so strange.

131
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 3: I don't know if someone had to leave their apartment

132
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 3: in a in a rush or someone got their stuff

133
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 3: thrown out of their apartment, but it was literally a

134
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 3: mountain of laser discs. And I saw I saw Indiana

135
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 3: Raiders of the Lost Dark. I saw the Odd Couple

136
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 3: sticking out, and I was like, listen, before these get

137
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 3: run over, I'm going.

138
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 4: To pick out some selects because.

139
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 3: I am, if anything, I am a huge movie buff

140
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 3: especially from the seventies and eighties era, even though a

141
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 3: couples from the sixties and so I was just like,

142
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 3: all right, I'm picking my four and I'm out and

143
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 3: not having a laser disc player because they don't make

144
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 3: them anymore.

145
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 2: The person who owned all of those probably didn't have

146
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 2: a laser disc player.

147
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 4: I doubt they did, but there were.

148
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 3: If I can't for who's ever listening, if you can

149
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 3: imagine just how many there were so many. I wanted

150
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 3: to keep making trips back, but by the time I

151
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 3: got home and went back to the street, like I

152
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 3: think other people that collected there, selects like the mountain

153
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 3: was gone.

154
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 2: So what is the story there? I mean, that's somebody

155
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: who was extremely rich in like nineteen ninety four, and

156
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 2: then it was all downhill.

157
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 3: From there, right right, somebody was like, yo, this nineteen

158
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 3: eighty to nineteen eighty four, I'm riding.

159
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 4: I'm riding high.

160
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 2: I know you're by every laser disc in existence.

161
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh the DVDs. Pusha This laser disc is where

162
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 3: it's at.

163
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 4: Now leave me. My laser disc is my ugly ass

164
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 4: coast law alone.

165
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 2: How big is I've never actually seen one in person.

166
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: Is it as big as like a record?

167
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like it's they're they're basically DVDs the size

168
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 3: of a record, and that was supposed to be the future,

169
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 3: right of home entertained they.

170
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 4: I mean, and laser discs.

171
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:07,439
Speaker 3: If I'm not mistaken, we're early eighties kind of innovation.

172
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 3: And so it was like laser disc, I think, was

173
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 3: supposed to be like, yeah, but I know the commoners

174
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 3: are doing vhs, but are you on some high end?

175
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: Are you on some high end stuff? Like you on

176
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 3: that on that next level, you want that laser disc?

177
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 3: And I think somebody was just like, yeah, but DVD's

178
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 3: are a lot more convenient. And I don't like your slog

179
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 3: I don't like your apartment, I don't like your taste.

180
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 4: I'm out of here.

181
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 2: I feel like when laser discs failed, we should have

182
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 2: kept the name and just called DVD's laser discs because

183
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 2: it is a better name.

184
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 3: It's much more fun spread, it's much more fun. It's

185
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 3: a better name. It's much more futuristic. Right, But yeah,

186
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 3: the digital video disc, like that's not laser disc.

187
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 2: Laser disc being.

188
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 4: A nerd that I am, I do think that.

189
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,960
Speaker 3: You know, if you know multidimensions exist, there is the

190
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 3: alternate reality where laser discs kept going, and that that's.

191
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 4: The world we should have. It went right, when we

192
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 4: went left and.

193
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 3: We should have gone right, and like everything in the

194
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 3: universe is like working out.

195
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 2: It's a much more balanced place.

196
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 4: Much more balanced place.

197
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 3: You know, people only look at their phones when they

198
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 3: need to, Like you know, there's cancel culture, and you know,

199
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 3: people don't make an issue of it. Like it's like

200
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 3: things things are okay in laser disc world.

201
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 2: Now, this is this is a theory I've actually held

202
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,199
Speaker 2: for a long time. I really believe that Vladimir Putin

203
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: is the only person on Earth still watching laser discs.

204
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 2: I feel like he's someone who has a large collection

205
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 2: of laser discs. Does that line up? I feel like

206
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 2: the logic makes sense to me.

207
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 3: Totally lines up and totally lines up with like everything

208
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 3: happening globally right now. Because he's just out of step.

209
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 2: He's way out of step, but thinks he's right.

210
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 4: Thinks he's right because he's like, why would you go smaller?

211
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 2: Everything should be bigger and shinier.

212
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 3: And laser disc is a better term. No, but that's

213
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 3: my bad veluprud In accent. But yeah, like he's off

214
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 3: step and he's definitely got him and Kim Jong un definitely.

215
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 2: Have yes, both of those men have so many laser discs.

216
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 2: They're both doused in cologne.

217
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 3: And now that we have said this, I am looking

218
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 3: at the reflection of myself, like with the laser just

219
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 3: behind mel huh Am.

220
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 4: I more tirrant than I thought I was.

221
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 2: I think everyone's a little more tyrant than I think

222
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 2: they are. Valid point, you get that much power and

223
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 2: suddenly you're buying too many laser discs, and you know,

224
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 2: just making poor choice after poor choice. I think you

225
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 2: are lucky that when you when you went back to

226
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 2: get all those laser discs, that they were gone. I

227
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 2: think so that could have been a bad turn for

228
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 2: your life, could have been a bad turn.

229
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 3: I think, Yeah, I think an angel like saved my

230
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 3: soul and got the rest of those laser discs, because yeah,

231
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 3: I would have I would be the Vladimir Putin of

232
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 3: the East coast.

233
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 2: Your guardian angel now has a huge collection of laser disks.

234
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, for my soul, for the benomit fit of my soul.

235
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 2: Oh Terrek, Well, speaking of things that you know are

236
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 2: cluttering our homes, taking over our lives, things that we

237
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 2: just don't need around, or something I'd like to talk

238
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 2: to you about. Look, you agreed to be on this

239
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 2: podcast a little while ago, and I was thrilled. I thought, Terrek,

240
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 2: seems wonderful. We'll have a fantastic time together. You know,

241
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 2: of course you were thrilled. I mean that goes without saying.

242
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 2: I thought, you know, all open with slaw, Well, talk

243
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 2: about slow for as long as possible, and then we'll

244
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 2: just hit hit stop and the recording will be finished.

245
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: So I was a little surprised when recently something came

246
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 2: into my life from you. And now this podcast is

247
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 2: called I said no gifts when you agreed to be on.

248
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 2: I said no gifts. The title was right there, kind

249
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 2: of a clear rule for the podcast, and so I

250
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: was a little, let's just say, bewildered when something came

251
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 2: into my life. I'm now holding kind of a bag here, yea, yeah,

252
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,959
Speaker 2: oh sure, sure, I'm happy to this is another birthday

253
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 2: and you are even more gorgeous than ever. It's kind

254
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 2: of a gift bag and obviously not my birthday lives

255
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 2: though some light sexual harassment.

256
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 4: I apologize, TERRK.

257
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 2: Is this a gift for me?

258
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 4: Yeah? Why not?

259
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 2: It's not a great defense.

260
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, listen, you know we've talked about the multiverse.

261
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 3: Schrodinger's cat is also another kind of you know, uh

262
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 3: physicist term of just like you know, you open the box,

263
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 3: you see if the cat is dead. What if the

264
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 3: cat's alive? You open that bag? Is it your presence?

265
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 4: Is it not?

266
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 2: So you're saying that there could be a currently there's

267
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 2: either a dead or a live cat in this bag,

268
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 2: and we won't know if it's a live or dead

269
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 2: until the bag is opened.

270
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 4: Absolutely, we are at a nexus point right now.

271
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 2: Oh, the pressure of.

272
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 3: Right and your decision, you know, whether we go left

273
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 3: or right determines what kind of universe we're going to

274
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: live in. Oh, we're going to live in a universe

275
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 3: where no gifts exist. And you just get a birthday

276
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 3: bag that no lies on the birthday.

277
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 4: By the way, Uh, it wasn't my choice.

278
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 3: It was what the cashier had, not saying that I

279
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 3: bought it and like put a gift in that bag.

280
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, like, I'm just specifying the circumstances of

281
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 3: the reality of the bag.

282
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 2: It feels just like a lot of excuses.

283
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 4: The reality of the contents in the bag.

284
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 2: We do not know, Well, should we find out if

285
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:20,720
Speaker 2: the cat is alive?

286
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 4: Let's find out.

287
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna get into this bag here, let's reach in. Okay,

288
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 2: and now it's in Okay, So I've opened it and

289
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 2: there's another package here. It was shipped to me. So

290
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 2: let me I do now have a box cutter which

291
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: was gifted to me. Let's see if I can reach

292
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: in here. You know, Oh, I hope I haven't lost

293
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 2: the box cutter. Oh nope, this is a USB chord

294
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 2: we've got. Oh my god, Terrek, this is the box

295
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 2: cutter is supposed to save time, and now me scrambling

296
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 2: for it is only taking up time.

297
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 3: No like, but this is what science is great at

298
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 3: right Like there is you know, time is possibly just

299
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 3: a construct, and what is happening right now is the

300
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 3: birthing of a whole, absolute and new, beautiful, gorgeous.

301
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 2: Universe, so many universes.

302
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 3: So many universes, and like, just looking for the the

303
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 3: box cutter is like listen, you know, that's that's part

304
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 3: of the mythology of whatever's going to happen. People are

305
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 3: going to talk about how, you know, how you on

306
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 3: the sixth day finally found the box.

307
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: This, I mean the slaw the laser discs that there

308
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: are so many things about time on this podcast. This episode,

309
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 2: this is a very time oriented episode. It is I

310
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: have found the box cutter, and I've realized I let's

311
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 2: see if we can get some of the clicking of

312
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 2: the box cutter. We've never done that before. It does

313
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 2: mean I'm opening a box cutter very close to my face,

314
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 2: but I'm gonna get it next to the mic here

Speaker 3: not practicing of any dogmatic religions, but I do like history.

348
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 3: And oh, by the way, everything I'm saying is a

349
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 3: little bit of BS and a little bit of truth.

350
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,159

397
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:49,800

00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,120
Speaker 2: So when you say you and your girlfriend exchange chores,

399
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 2: is there like a table that has all of the

400
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 2: chores on it?

401
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 4: No?

Speaker 3: love I would totally be down for.

406
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 2: Itemized some accountability.

407
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, routine, but but yeah, that I would get thrown out.

408
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 2: The most annoying spouse in the world.

409
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,920

Speaker 4: Uh, she's the more frequent cook.

414
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, that's also some heavy lifting.

415
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 3: Absolutely, And she is the like she has the vision

416
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 3: of arranging the apartment.

417
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,959
Speaker 2: Oh, she's kind of in charge of the art direction

418
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 2: of the apartment, the visual element.

419
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:52,560

Speaker 2: apartment should look or did you just see it all

424
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:00,199

426
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 3: You know, during the pandemic, we you know, we spent

427
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,440
Speaker 3: much more time in this apartment than we had ever

428
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,640
Speaker 3: thought we would, and I imagine everyone else did. And yeah,

429
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 3: she completely rearranged it. When I was out for a

430

473
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 3: I never graduated, but you know they have these playlists

474
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 3: every year where they you know, every Friday, where it's like,

475
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: all right, well here's new music, music by artists you

476
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:38,879
Speaker 3: know and artists.

477
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 4: You don't know.

478
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 2: I love these.

479
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 3: Things same, and so that's how I'll find new music.

480
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 3: I will, all right on Friday, I'll listen to that playlist.

481
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:50,479
Speaker 3: So that's like that's a bike ride or a walk

482
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,479
Speaker 3: or a workout right there, just like listening to that

483
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 3: Friday Friday new mix that they come up with, and

484
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 3: then I'll find like a bunch of artists I never heard.

485
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 2: And then you're taking those songs and putting them into

486
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 2: the year long list. Absolutely so, Derek, this is something

487
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 2: you and I have very much in common to make

488
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: a yearly list.

489
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 3: We're back at time, We're back at We're back, We're

490
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 3: back here.

491
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 2: A few years ago, I had what was basically some

492
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 2: sort of mental break where I made a playlist dating

493
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 2: back to I think nineteen eighty nine. Oh wow, And

494
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 2: each one has at least like seventy five to one

495
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 2: hundred songs on it, seventy five to one hundred and

496
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 2: fifty songs. And it was a nice little project. It

497
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 2: felt like I was just a little music librarian for

498
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 2: a minute. And now I just do it every year,

499
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 2: keeping up on it. It's wonderful. It makes it listening

500
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 2: to music so easy. Well, back to the sheets. Is

501
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 2: there anything else we need to say about sheets or sleeping?

502
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 4: Are you?

503
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 2: What sort of sleeper are you?

504
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 3: I think the majority of the time I'm a good sleeper.

505
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 4: I've been trying to take naps.

506
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 2: Ooh, afternoon midday, late evening.

507
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, the the mid the afternoon, midday to the afternoon

508
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 3: nap like the moments you have when you are home,

509
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 3: you have a day off and it's like all right, well,

510
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 3: I am feeling a little tired right now, let me

511
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,879
Speaker 3: take a nap. Or after a workout and you eat

512
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 3: and you get that like sugar hide and that crash,

513
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 3: and it's just like, all right, well, let me take

514
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 3: a nap and finding the sweet spot of like fifteen

515
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 3: minutes is a.

516
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 2: Nap a myth? An absolute myth. There's no you fall

517
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 2: asleep for fifteen minutes. You're gonna sit here and tell

518
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 2: me that you lay down on the bed and then

519
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 2: you sleep for fifteen minutes.

520
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 3: So to go back to the coast lofe thing. A nap,

521
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 3: I think can consist of many different forms of rest.

522
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: Oh interesting, okay.

523
00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 3: So I think a nap can be yeah, you are

524
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 3: sleep for fifteen minutes, but like once it goes over

525
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 3: to twenty, then you start going into that deep sleep

526
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 3: land and then like you wake up and your body

527
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 3: is mad at you for the rest of the day.

528
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 3: So for fifteen minutes is just like all right, well,

529
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 3: you know, if it's like fifteen minutes of dozing in

530
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 3: and out, that's okay. Or if it's like ten minutes

531
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 3: of like, oh, I'm sleep and then five minutes of

532
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 3: like all right, well, let me just stay awake, or

533
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 3: fifteen minutes of meditation are just laying down and not

534
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 3: looking at your phone.

535
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 2: You're much more open minded about naps than I am.

536
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 3: I'm trying to be. It's you know, this is not

537
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 3: an easy practice, but it is. When it works out,

538
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 3: it's beautiful for me.

539
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 2: The perfect nap needs to take place somewhere between one

540
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 2: thirty and three forty five pm, and it should be

541
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: I should be unconscious for at least half an hour,

542
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 2: and that means fifteen minutes of just lying there until

543
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 2: I'm asleep, and I also well, occasionally every few years,

544
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 2: don't mind indulging in. You fall asleep at four pm

545
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 2: and wake up at six pm and feel like you

546
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: just crawled out of a swamp. There's something about that

547
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:13,040
Speaker 2: that's kind of appealing.

548
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,440
Speaker 4: Sometimes you need to do that where you're.

549
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 2: Just your body is just like we're sleeping for two

550
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 2: and a half hours, and you're gonna feel pretty terrible

551
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 2: when you wake up, but it's gonna solve something.

552
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think doing that or you know what, I'm

553
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 3: gonna have.

554
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 4: This indulgence dessert right in the middle of the day.

555
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 3: I haven't had dinner, I haven't really had a nutritious meal,

556
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 3: but like, do you know slotting those things inwards, it's like, Oh,

557
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 3: normally a parent would probably say don't do this, and

558
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 3: getting to do that definitely saw.

559
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 4: Someone as an adult.

560
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely absolutely. Now let me ask you this about sheet.

561
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 2: So listener wrote in for another part of the podcast

562
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 2: that we'll get to eventually, but this feels relevant to

563
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 2: this conversation. They brought up this idea that people don't

564
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 2: sleep with the top sheet, and apparently it's very controversial.

565
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 2: Have you heard about this.

566
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 4: I am not.

567
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 2: I'm still not even entirely familiar. But when you get

568
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,719
Speaker 2: into bed, do you have like a comforter and then

569
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 2: a sheet under it, and then the fitted sheet under that?

570
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not a savage. How else would you do it?

571
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: That's why I was completely baffled. Apparently a large part

572
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 2: of the population puts a fitted sheet and then just

573
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 2: throws a comforter on top of it and just sleeps

574
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 2: between those two things.

575
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 4: What kinds of people.

576
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 2: Are doing that I have never heard of this.

577
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 4: They give you the fitted sheet for a reason.

578
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 3: You can't just be slashing around in your bed with

579
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 3: the top sheet and a comforter.

580
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: Well, let me clarify. I think what it means is

581
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 2: the fitted sheet is put on the mattress I see,

582
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 2: and then a comforter is put over that. But then

583
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 2: there's no in between that. But you buy the whole

584
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 2: sheet set, wouldn't you just put the other sheet on there?

585
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 4: That's disgusting.

586
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 2: Also, it makes like, doesn't that mean you have to

587
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 2: constantly be washing that comforter?

588
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 4: Yes, it needs you.

589
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 3: Now have to wash the comforter more than like you

590
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 3: twice a week, mean you gotta wash it every time

591
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 3: you're doing the launder, which I hope is once a week.

592
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 4: You are filthy? Who are these people?

593
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 2: Your home is filthy? Your home is filthy, it's crawling

594
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:24,080
Speaker 2: with bugs.

595
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 4: Do you throw out the wash cloths and just keep

596
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 4: the towels? You're dirty? Stop?

597
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very confusing to me. I don't understand. I

598
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 2: was shocked that there's apparently a large part of the

599
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 2: population that has just got this either a filthy comforter

600
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 2: or is washing a comforter frequently, and that's a bulky item.

601
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 4: See, I'm gonna hit you with a theory. This is

602
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 4: where I think we are.

603
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 3: Where we are as an American society today, is I

604
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 3: really think I think you're honest something We should have

605
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 3: stuck with the laser discs because what that means is like, listen,

606
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 3: we know it's bulky, we know it's not really convenient

607
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 3: for like storage in your home library, but dang it,

608
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 3: Let's take our time before we go compact to the

609
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 3: DVD and then we go digital.

610
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 4: Let's take our time with things.

611
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 3: Because if people don't know how to take the time,

612
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, they are living like children who

613
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 3: have suddenly become adults. Everyone is now in the movie

614
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 3: Big and they're putting throwing out their footage sheets and

615
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,719
Speaker 3: just putting the top sheet with a comforter over their

616
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 3: dirty mattress, and it's it's gross.

617
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 2: You haven't got to get back to that other laser

618
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 2: just timeline.

619
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 3: You gotta just yeah, we gotta slow down, like read

620
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 3: like do you need to read instructions for your bedroom sheets?

621
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 4: Is that what we are? Have? People lost?

622
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 2: It makes absolutely no sense. It's chaos, no rules, no rules.

623
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 2: People are just living like maniacs. And I just I

624
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 2: hope that more people are used all of the sheets

625
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 2: that are given to them.

626
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is why I gave it to a good

627
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 3: I know, a civilized human being.

628
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 2: When I see one, thank you, I appreciate that.

715
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 2: does outside of that video that she sent to the

716
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,600

722
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 3: I have seen an episode of Americans, which I now

723
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:08,080

724
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 4: But she's tremendous in that show from what I saw,

725
00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:12,120

726
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:17,000

00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,440
Speaker 3: you know, just having the Boston accent on lock in

728
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:26,600

00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,839
Speaker 3: her the Boston accent. She will be in a Ben

730
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,840
Speaker 3: Affleck movie at some point and it will all just

731
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:39,560
Speaker 3: be like spitting Boston bars. Gal Gado gets the snack Wells.

732
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 3: She gets the snack Wells because you know, you know,

733
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 3: she's already wonder woman. She's got a lot going on.

00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:52,240
Speaker 3: But yeah, I you know, she's you know, an international

735
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,680

738
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 3: the very finest tap and it's like, nah, eat some

739
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 3: snack wells.

740
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:06,880

741
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 3: Eat these mediocre dry ass cookies and just you know,

742
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 3: know how the rest of us have been living our lives, Uh,

743
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 3: and I got to give Tyler the Creator the experience

744
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 3: to the power to manipulate weather, just because that is

745
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 3: going to be an amazing music video and it's going

746
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 3: to be an amazing album, and yeah, what happens if

747
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 3: you give the You.

748
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:38,279
Speaker 2: Know, I would be a little wary of giving of

749
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 2: giving Tyler the Creator the power to manipulate the weather.

750
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 2: I feel like he's a mischievous person.

751
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 4: Absolutely, he absolutely is.

752
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:48,840
Speaker 2: I mean, he does have good taste.

753
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 3: Though he does have good tastes, and thus far, his

754
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:58,920
Speaker 3: miss his trick sternness I think is inherently good.

755
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 2: Always good intent. Yeah, that's true. He's got a good compass.

756
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 4: He's got a good compass.

757
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 3: I haven't thus far, I haven't seen anything from Tyler

758
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 3: created him, just like, ooh, I'm worried about him. Like

759
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 3: I feel like the tricksterness, Like he would definitely pull

760
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 3: some tricks. They would definitely be like, all right, it's

761
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 3: cold in July, which again would make those sheets that

762
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 3: I gave you like the perfect gift. But but I

763
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 3: do think like he would. You know, Hey, there's a

764
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,759
Speaker 3: drought going on in California right now. Hey, the reservoirs

765
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 3: need some help, so a little bit of rain.

766
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 2: You know that is that's a very smartly given gift.

767
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so.

768
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 3: It may it may be the color of kool aid water,

769
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 3: because that's how the creator.

770
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,520
Speaker 4: But guess what, that's all right.

771
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 2: It would work, It would work. Yeah. I think the

772
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,399
Speaker 2: only one of those people I wouldn't want to give

773
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 2: the power to manipulate the weather is galicato I. I

774
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,800
Speaker 2: don't know that she's ready for that level of responsibility. No,

775
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,240
Speaker 2: whych she gets a snack will, just got a dusty

776

Speaker 2: box of snack Well.

777

Speaker 3: You get a dusty box of snack wills and sit

778
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 3: down and eat them all and just think about your

779
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 3: choices in life.

00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 2: that they ask me to help with. I of course

787
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,440
Speaker 2: get the help of my guest and we solve issue

788
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 2: after issue. Will you help me answer an email?

789
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:43,720
Speaker 4: Certainly?

790
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,399
Speaker 2: Okay, let me get into this. Let me read here

791
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 2: that says just kind of a kurt hello, and oh

792
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 2: but then I feel bad. I'm a new listener and

793
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 2: enjoy the Okay, Okay, so I forgive the person for

794
00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 2: just saying hello. That's fine. But here's the meat of

795
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:05,000
Speaker 2: the email. It says I recently attended a destination wedding

796
00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 2: in Tuloom at an all inclusive resort. I live in

797
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 2: Los Angeles and my friend, the bride currently lives in Austin.

798
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 2: Because the cost of attending the wedding was so expensive

799
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 2: a thousand dollars plus, I decided I wasn't going to

800
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:24,600
Speaker 2: send a gift. My friend didn't even register for any items.

801
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 2: Her wedding site just had a link to send money.

802
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 2: The wedding was Saturday. I returned home Wednesday night, and

803
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 2: on Thursday, my friend reached out saying she had been

804
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 2: unpacking all of her luggage and wanted to make sure

805
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 2: she didn't miss a card from me. I was shocked.

806
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 2: After asking advice from friends, I finally responded a few

807
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 2: hours later, saying that I was having a hectic day

808
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 2: getting back to work and that I hadn't brought a

809
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 2: card and hoped unpacking wasn't too difficult, she responded. Okay, wow,

810
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 2: this is good. She responded saying, so no gift. I

811
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 2: was beyond myself. Proper wedding etiquette says you have one

812
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,759
Speaker 2: year to send a gift. Oh that's something I wasn't

813
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 2: aware of. I'm going to take advantage of that to

814
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:11,719
Speaker 2: its full extent. So that's one year to send a gift.

815
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 2: So not only was her blatantly asking for one improper,

816
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 2: but it hadn't even been a whole week yet. After

817
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,440
Speaker 2: a lot of thought, I responded back saying I was

818
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 2: planning on sending her one later and that things have

819
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 2: been hectic. It's been two days no response from her.

820
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,359
Speaker 2: I'm now torn on what to do. I almost feel

821
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,800
Speaker 2: she was testing my friendship, Like if I don't send something,

822
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 2: that's it. I don't really want to just send the

823
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 2: online fund because of someone who is perpetually single. I

824
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:44,239
Speaker 2: find people asking for money to be ridiculous. I'd rather

825
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:47,200
Speaker 2: send an item. Also, because this friend lives in another

826
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 2: state and is married with a baby, our friendship might

827
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 2: not last much longer as is. So what do I

828
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,879
Speaker 2: do in this situation? That's from harmony? Harmony has brought

829
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 2: a real situation to the podcast, seems like her friend's

830
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 2: a complete psycho.

831
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 4: Uh oh yeah, I'm glad we got this one.

832
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 2: A lot going on here.

833
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 3: There's a lot going on. But if I may take the.

834
00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:17,280
Speaker 2: Crack, please do. I would love to hear your thoughts

835
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 2: on this harmony.

836
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 3: If you are listening, I say you do as your

837
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 3: namesake is already given. You live in harmony and you

838
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 3: forget that hot mess of a friend and leave that

839
00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,960
Speaker 3: friend in the distance. You risk life and limb to

840
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 3: travel now, to go on plane on a plane right now,

841
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 3: we are still in a pandemic. So to travel, to

842
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 3: spend you spend over one thousand dollars.

843
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:45,719
Speaker 2: Over one thousand dollars.

844
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 3: To spend over one thousand dollars, so I imagine that is

845
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:53,319
Speaker 3: the airplane ticket we're going and returning, the hotel accommodation.

846
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,120
Speaker 3: Probably had to pay for food when you were there,

847
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 3: so all right, that is one thousand dollars to show

848
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 3: up your friends like hey, look at me in this

849
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 3: moment that nobody really cares about. And you showed up anyway,

850
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 3: and you were like, hey, I wish you the best,

851
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,240
Speaker 3: and your friend comes back with like, where's my gift?

852
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 2: Oh, the passive aggressive. I'm unpacking. I was just making

853
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 2: sure I didn't miss something. Is I mean, the most

854
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,440
Speaker 2: transparent move this person's ever made.

855
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 4: What was she?

856
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 2: Give me a break?

857
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:33,840
Speaker 3: Just ask the unmitigated goal, the nerve, the nerve to

858
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 3: be like, where's my gift? Your presence, Harmony, your heart, Harmony,

859
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 3: your presence, your name is a gift, your life, your breath, your.

860
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:46,760
Speaker 4: Witnessing was a gift.

861
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 3: You didn't even put up a proper registry and you're

862
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 3: coming back.

863
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 4: Listen, You're going to raise a terrible child.

864
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,280
Speaker 3: And you're going to live a terrible life and everyone

865
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 3: is going to be cleared the heck out. And I know,

866
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,440
Speaker 3: I know they serve Coast law at that wedding and

867
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 3: not the profits law. So Harmony, eat you some Raycavis law,

868
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 3: live your life and forget this friendship.

869
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 2: This is a perfect advice. I think if you have

870
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 2: a destination wedding, you don't. You cannot expect a gift

871
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 2: from anyone. Yeah, if they bring a gift, great, but

872
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 2: you are asking someone to go on a compulsory vacation.

873
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 2: They're spending money to go to somewhere that they didn't

874
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 2: have in mind. No, think a Harmony here could have

875
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:35,360
Speaker 2: gone to Paris.

876
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 3: She could have gone to Paris. And I'm stressing traveling

877
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,399
Speaker 3: in a pandemic. I don't care where you.

878
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 4: Think you are in this level, like it is not easy.

879
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 2: No, they're not comfortable, it's not safe. You could still

880
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:54,279
Speaker 2: get sick. So you've got to really want to go

881
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 2: on the vacation.

882
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 4: You got to really want to go on the vacation.

883
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,799
Speaker 3: I don't know if Harmony is this is like you're

884
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 3: the one if you know she didn't specify the email,

885
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 3: like whether this friend versus the only person she knows

886
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 3: at this destination wedding.

887
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 2: Oh if she was alone at the wedding, Oh what

888
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 2: a feeling right like if she was.

889
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,000
Speaker 3: Alone at the wedding, Harmony, I I really wish you

890
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 3: were this was a live call, because it'd be like,

891
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,360
Speaker 3: well did you dance? Because if you hit the dance floor,

892
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 3: you did everything. You did everything that was expected of you.

893
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,959
Speaker 3: That was the gift, now nerve.

894
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 2: I don't just to back up a couple of steps,

895
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 2: I don't want to point any fingers. I don't. I

896
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,839
Speaker 2: obviously want to be on Harmony's side here, but I

897
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 2: am I am seeing a few concerns. First of all,

898
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 2: this friend is obviously horrible. If this is the this

899
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,440
Speaker 2: can't possibly be the first behavior this horrible person has exhibited.

900
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 4: That's a great point.

901
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 2: This person has probably been awful since Harmony met her

902
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 2: day one. So the fact that Harmony decided to go

903
00:47:57,239 --> 00:48:01,759
Speaker 2: to this wedding of this horrible person, Yeah, Harmony, I'm

904
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 2: questioning your choices. And then also one thousand dollars plus

905
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,040
Speaker 2: how long were you there for? Didn't you shop around

906
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:08,640
Speaker 2: for airfare?

907
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 4: Right?

908
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 3: Harmony, you sound like a really good person, someone who

909
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 3: you know.

910
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 4: I don't know if I'm.

911
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 3: A good person, but I do know that I'd like

912
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,680
Speaker 3: to accommodate other people before I accommodate myself.

913
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 4: Sure, I know that has called some issues, and as.

914
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 3: Someone who is learning and has learned from some of

915
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:31,800
Speaker 3: those issues, Yeah, don't do this again. Check your friends.

916
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 3: Check this like, are they worth it? Are they worth it?

917
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 2: This friend is going to have a second wedding and

918
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 2: they're going to invite you to an even more expensive

919
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 2: destination wedding, and you do not want to fall back

920
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,400
Speaker 2: into her trap. So, Harmony, I hope some lessons have

921
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:47,160
Speaker 2: been learned here.

922
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 4: I hope so too.

923
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 2: Harmony because you're I'm now coming full circle. I'm completely

924
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 2: blaming harmony for this circulation. I you know, her friend

925
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 2: may be the devil, but the devil can be avoided harmony.

926
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:03,720
Speaker 4: Yeah.

927
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 2: And if you're spending over one thousand dollars to go

928
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:11,320
Speaker 2: to a wedding of someone who sends a Texas says

929
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:16,120
Speaker 2: so no gift, then your hands are not entirely clean.

930
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:16,960
Speaker 2: Let's just say that.

931
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 4: Check check your rolodex. I know people don't use rolodex

932
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:24,000
Speaker 4: as anymore, but your many might. Harmony might.

933
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:27,400
Speaker 3: And if you do, yeah, go through it and see, like,

934
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,719
Speaker 3: see who in that that that rolodesth list is not

935
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 3: worthy of your friendship.

936
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 4: Friendship is a gift itself.

937
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,880
Speaker 2: Friendship is a gift harmony. I feel like basically the

938
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 2: answer to your question ultimately is you're not giving You're

939
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,759
Speaker 2: not sending the friend a gift, of course not. You're

940
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 2: blocking her number. You may you may even go as

941
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:50,640

959
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:51,280
