<v Speaker 2>I did my peloton ride this morning. It was very hard.

0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm a fool because I was like, oh, I'm going

0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 2>to do an endurance ride in our life endurance ride

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:03.640
<v Speaker 2>and like it's only like at level two on my

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 2>STP and I was the fucking sweating ten minutes in.

0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:09.840

<v Speaker 3>for you.

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:18.079
<v Speaker 1>There's something about those endurance rides. It's like the doing

0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:21.480
<v Speaker 1>the same thing for an extended period of time, and

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 1>I know it's good for me. It's mentally really hard, which.

0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:27.240
<v Speaker 2>Is and he said that multiple times. Matt will Person,

0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:29.960
<v Speaker 2>my Peloton boyfriend, said it multiple times. He was like,

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:32.440
<v Speaker 2>the half of this is the head game of like

0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 2>you making sure that you can keep your legs moving essentially.

0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:40.000

0:02:40.040 --> 0:02:40.200
<v Speaker 4>Like me?

<v Speaker 3>That's more better.

0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 1>The kids started school and I have just been which

0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of maybe falls into our topic today.

0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Falls in lo lol.

0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:55.640
<v Speaker 3>I've been give some graphics.

0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:58.040
<v Speaker 2>Here was just some little like leaving.

0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I've been really productive. Yeah, every day I think

0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 1>coming fucky.

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, I've just had like energy.

0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I like reorganize the boys room, and I'm going to

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>do like other parts of the house and of just

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>like things that have been on my mind. I'm actually

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:21.480
<v Speaker 1>getting done.

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 5>I'm this is great.

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'm not annoyed at cooking dinner at night like

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I think, cause it's like still fresh, the like routine,

0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the switch over into the school time, into the school time,

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>into like the schedule, because it's really I mean, I

0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:44.040
<v Speaker 1>love it. We all thrive during summer in the chaos

0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 1>of like no schedules. Yeah, it's really not until the

0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:50.560
<v Speaker 1>very and like I know, I can see it in

0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 1>the kids that they need more structure and routine when

0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:54.800
<v Speaker 1>it gets close to going back to school.

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 2>I wonder if like the extra chaos at the end

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:01.640
<v Speaker 2>of the summer though, is because they know they're going back,

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 2>so there's like nerves and anxiety about Like, yeah, that's

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:07.119
<v Speaker 2>so I feel.

0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 4>It more better.

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 3>Well that's what we're talking about today. We're talking about fall.

0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Your favorite season is my favorite so much.

0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, I grew up in a place where it was

0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:27.919
<v Speaker 1>like real fall, not like La falla La Fall doesn't

0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:30.640
<v Speaker 1>start to like November Christmas.

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:33.360
<v Speaker 5>It's weird, which is.

0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:36.719
<v Speaker 2>You know, quite a bit of the country struggles with that.

0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:40.000
<v Speaker 2>I think, like the seasons change, but they don't change

0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:45.800
<v Speaker 2>when when they're Yeah, like as I mean, now I've

0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:49.200
<v Speaker 2>been in LA for over a decade, it's the one

0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:51.200
<v Speaker 2>thing that will still trip me out when it's like

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Christmas time.

0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:56.000
<v Speaker 1>But there's like like trees in La with like red

0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.719
<v Speaker 1>and yellow leaves, you know, and I'm just like, oh,

0:04:58.800 --> 0:04:59.200
<v Speaker 1>that's not.

0:04:59.240 --> 0:05:05.600
<v Speaker 3>Right, you're late. But growing up, it was, yeah, it

0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:06.040
<v Speaker 3>was like that.

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.080
<v Speaker 1>Back to school, the like it felt more like New

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Year's than New Year's does, like the start of another year.

0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I would take drives with my parents to go see

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.880
<v Speaker 1>like fall foliage.

0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:19.360
<v Speaker 3>Out of here.

0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Parents love to go for a drive and we would

0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.400
<v Speaker 1>classic classic, Yes.

0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh wow. Because you grew up on the East Coast,

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:28.480
<v Speaker 3>you grew up in Jersey.

0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in New Jersey, so it was very

0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 1>like you had seasons. You had a strong season, very

0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 1>big change.

0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:37.040
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 1>And then when I moved to New York too, like

0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:41.919
<v Speaker 1>the leaves. I don't know if they if this is

0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.280
<v Speaker 1>still true, but at least when I lived there, because

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:50.520
<v Speaker 1>climate change, the week of the New York Marathon, the

0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:53.560
<v Speaker 1>trees in Central Park would almost like pretty much be.

0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:54.320
<v Speaker 5>At peak color.

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:56.960
<v Speaker 1>That's beautiful, And it was just you could rely on

0:05:57.040 --> 0:05:59.840
<v Speaker 1>that timing everything that's kind of beautiful, and you know

0:05:59.880 --> 0:06:02.359
<v Speaker 1>that like poets walk that wide walkway with all the

0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:06.479
<v Speaker 1>writer statues, all the trees there turn like bright yellow.

0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:09.159
<v Speaker 1>And the first time I walked through it, I was

0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:12.440
<v Speaker 1>like and then a wind came and oh I.

0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Literally yeah, yes, I was like wind machine.

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:18.240
<v Speaker 3>Now one of those moments you're like.

0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:20.680
<v Speaker 1>This doesn't feel like real life, like this is just

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:21.960
<v Speaker 1>so beautiful.

0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:22.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:24.880
<v Speaker 1>So and then you know, you know I love a sweater,

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:28.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, I love layers, love blazy, love it. Stephanie

0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:32.000
<v Speaker 1>bought me a tweed wool blazer, and I was like,

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:32.920
<v Speaker 1>you know me.

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:34.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah I do.

0:06:35.200 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I will say, like the idea of getting

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 2>more better at a fall is really interesting, right, because

0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:42.760
<v Speaker 2>like how do you get more better at a season?

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:43.320
<v Speaker 4>Right?

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.359
<v Speaker 2>There are elements of this season that I think, I

0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:48.920
<v Speaker 2>think why we were interested in this is there are

0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:52.599
<v Speaker 2>elements of this season that I don't I don't like

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:58.360
<v Speaker 2>I would prefer my people are from South America. Yeah,

0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:03.080
<v Speaker 2>there are seasonal changes there. However, the median you know,

0:07:03.160 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 2>temperature is going to be a crispy eighty six.

0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:06.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, my dad when when I was growing up, my

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:12.280
<v Speaker 2>dad would be like, God, it's freezing in here, and

0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.400
<v Speaker 2>he'd put on a jacket. It would be like seventy four.

0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:17.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm still like this. I almost took a jacket last

0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:19.480
<v Speaker 2>night to a concert that was outdoors last night.

0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:20.760
<v Speaker 3>Seventy four degrees.

0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:23.120
<v Speaker 2>It was warm. I was like, I'm okay, because I'm

0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:26.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna dance, so I'll be I'll like heat myself up,

0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 2>it'll be fine. But I feel like there's like culturally, right,

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:34.600
<v Speaker 2>like if we if we think about fall the season

0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:37.760
<v Speaker 2>as like what's fall cults like? For for sake, of

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 2>the podcast purposes today, we're gonna call it like fall,

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:40.240
<v Speaker 2>what's fall?

0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:41.119
<v Speaker 5>Culture? Yeah?

0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:42.120
<v Speaker 3>Getting better at find out?

0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:45.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, is a culture arguable?

0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:48.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean for some people like their whole culture, or

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:49.679
<v Speaker 2>some people it's.

0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:51.560
<v Speaker 3>Like it's my right. I don't say, I don't want

0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:53.480
<v Speaker 3>to take that from anybody. Listen, I will.

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 2>I'll make fun of you if that's your whole personality.

0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:59.320
<v Speaker 2>Is this one season that you cling to every year?

0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:03.679
<v Speaker 2>Not me also having like hundreds of boxes of Christmas ornaments?

0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:04.840
<v Speaker 3>That's a different podcast.

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:09.720
<v Speaker 2>But I do think there are elements of this season

0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 2>that are very uh, they're fun to get into, like

0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:18.840
<v Speaker 2>as a yeah, as a like okay, like think about

0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:22.040
<v Speaker 2>pop culture, right, like pop culture and what it like

0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 2>every now and then you'll have like this wave of

0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 2>something that's like very popular in culture, right, and this

0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.520
<v Speaker 2>is the time where this stuff is.

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Like isis made us a list of stuff which is like,

0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:34.679
<v Speaker 1>it's crazy how long this list?

0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Pumpkin spice, pumpkin patches, apple picking, fall candles, Halloween decorating me,

0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.280
<v Speaker 2>high boots. We're gonna come back to that one.

0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 3>That one's real.

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:45.120
<v Speaker 2>That one's a real problem for me.

0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:46.520
<v Speaker 5>Okay, me too.

0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Corn mazes trips to see autumn, like you were saying,

0:08:50.120 --> 0:08:52.560
<v Speaker 2>you had a drive with your parents to go see.

0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:54.600
<v Speaker 3>Like corn mazes. Oh my god.

0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:56.679
<v Speaker 2>I one of my first jobs in New York was

0:08:57.200 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 2>in Queens. There was this corn maze and one of

0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:03.120
<v Speaker 2>my fris ran the company that and we had to

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:06.160
<v Speaker 2>lead people through this cornmes. It was a hell on earth.

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 2>It was absolutely hell on earth. I hate corn mazes

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:11.920
<v Speaker 2>so much. They're dusty, dry, dirty, and no one listens

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:17.520
<v Speaker 2>to the rules. Hay rides, bonfires, plaid, big hats, big scarves,

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:22.320
<v Speaker 2>the Lenny Kravitz and his fabulous big scarf, pumpkin pie,

0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:24.520
<v Speaker 2>apple Pie. I mean, like listing some of this stuff

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:27.040
<v Speaker 2>is really and like, ooh, Chili, that's.

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:27.640
<v Speaker 5>A good one.

0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 2>I also really love thee Little Morthos, which is like

0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 2>right in the fall, Halloween and the Littlesmorthos. Right Halloween

0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:37.880
<v Speaker 2>is the thirty first, theos Morthos is usually celebrated on

0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:39.240
<v Speaker 2>the thirty first, first and second.

0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:41.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So I.

0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Just I really like that part of it, which is

0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:47.160
<v Speaker 2>like this, like I like the ghosty, spooky part of Fall.

0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:52.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't necessarily love the now we have to change

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:54.800
<v Speaker 2>all of our clothes to wear like fifteen layers, and.

0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:57.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't like it.

0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to be told that it's time. You

0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:00.959
<v Speaker 2>don't want to wear orange in tan.

0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:03.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't. I don't have anything orange.

0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Way.

0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:05.760
<v Speaker 2>I do have a lot of beige, but I don't

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:07.200
<v Speaker 2>have anything orange.

0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:07.920
<v Speaker 3>Because it doesn't look good on me.

0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:08.400
<v Speaker 5>Bitch.

0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 6>I don't like it really, even like like a burnty

0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:11.720
<v Speaker 6>orange kind of.

0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:15.199
<v Speaker 2>Maybe like I've been like a bright orange suit before,

0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:16.360
<v Speaker 2>but it's not like for me.

0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:17.599
<v Speaker 3>Hmm, I hear you.

0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:19.800
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, out of the two of us, this

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:22.320
<v Speaker 2>is your real time to shine.

0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:25.840
<v Speaker 1>This is although I will say the last few years,

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:29.840
<v Speaker 1>I feel like fall has started to move towards like

0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:34.120
<v Speaker 1>Valentine's Day or like those annoying like like did you

0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:37.640
<v Speaker 1>notice there was like fall stuff and Halloween stuff in

0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:40.600
<v Speaker 1>supermarkets and like pharmacies starting in.

0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:43.920
<v Speaker 5>Like August this year, yes, like August first.

0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I will say, as somebody who does love Disneyland,

0:10:47.200 --> 0:10:48.920
<v Speaker 2>and you guys already know this about me, so.

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, like you don't. We went to Disneyland and

0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:51.959
<v Speaker 3>it was already Halloween.

0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Halloween, which is fine because let's go let's go stoked,

0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:58.400
<v Speaker 1>like Haunted Mansion was he was.

0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:01.600
<v Speaker 2>It's fantastic, sick that part of fall.

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:03.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm all about it. I'm like one hundred percent.

0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Let's embrace it because like there's for me, there's like

0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:10.840
<v Speaker 2>cultural significance there which is like the the what do

0:11:10.880 --> 0:11:14.400
<v Speaker 2>they call it, the the thinning of the veil between worlds.

0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:17.439
<v Speaker 2>Like listen, I'm not necessarily religious, but I am spiritual,

0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:20.080
<v Speaker 2>and I really do believe that, like if you talk

0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:22.800
<v Speaker 2>to your ancestors, they're around you, they're protecting you, there

0:11:22.840 --> 0:11:25.680
<v Speaker 2>with you, and like that's the time of year where

0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:30.640
<v Speaker 2>everybody collectively kind of does it all together. And there's

0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:35.160
<v Speaker 2>this like I think it's it's like old, the old Old.

0:11:35.200 --> 0:11:37.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't know where it's from. Maybe I is could

0:11:37.400 --> 0:11:39.360
<v Speaker 2>look it up. I'm looking off camera at ice, but

0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.800
<v Speaker 2>like there's this thing called like the wheel of time,

0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:46.280
<v Speaker 2>and it like it it kind of goes through like

0:11:46.440 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 2>the seasons with you as a human being, and like

0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:52.920
<v Speaker 2>how the seasons affect you and what you should be

0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:55.800
<v Speaker 2>doing during the seasons and like all hallows even like

0:11:55.920 --> 0:12:00.760
<v Speaker 2>I think it's called like Sam Sam Hi Sam, I'm again, Yeah,

0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:03.520
<v Speaker 2>you're wrong. You can put it right here on the screen.

0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what it's called but I like love

0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:12.160
<v Speaker 2>that part of fall because it's like this kind of excuse.

0:12:11.840 --> 0:12:13.000
<v Speaker 3>To remember everybody.

0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:16.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and like we make thee little more those altar

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 2>in our house. We like have all the stuff up.

0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 2>I have like pictures of my dog, my dog's ashes,

0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:24.240
<v Speaker 2>like like all that stuff.

0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:24.640
<v Speaker 3>I love.

0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.840
<v Speaker 2>It's the it's the being forced into.

0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:30.080
<v Speaker 5>Pumpkin spicy.

0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:33.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't want it. I don't want it shoved down

0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:36.199
<v Speaker 2>my throat. I don't want it. And also like it's

0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:41.600
<v Speaker 2>this is a like season feels like the lie is

0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:44.480
<v Speaker 2>that it's like cozy and and comfy and you're gonna

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:46.640
<v Speaker 2>light a candle and like get on your couch and

0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:48.680
<v Speaker 2>get in a blanket and read a book.

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:51.400
<v Speaker 3>And it's actually ramping.

0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.719
<v Speaker 2>Up to the holidays, which is like that part stressful

0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:55.120
<v Speaker 2>to me.

0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that part too, I feel that, Like, yeah, when

0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:02.040
<v Speaker 1>September hits, I'm just like, oh God, here we go, Halloween, Thanksgiving,

0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Christmas is cann be here before we know it.

0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:07.040
<v Speaker 7>I found it, okay. Wheel of the Year the year

0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:11.200
<v Speaker 7>annual cycle of seasonal festivals observed by a range of

0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:16.240
<v Speaker 7>modern pagans marking the year's chief solar events, solstices and

0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:20.079
<v Speaker 7>equinoxides and the mid midpoints between them, and then it

0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:23.479
<v Speaker 7>you know, includes like folk traditions, a lot of British

0:13:23.679 --> 0:13:26.400
<v Speaker 7>like Anglo Saxon history, Celtic history.

0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Yes, sinking with living with the seasons, living with the seasons,

0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:36.240
<v Speaker 2>celebrating the seasons, celebrate like and aligning like tour like

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:38.959
<v Speaker 2>this is when we harvest, this is when we save food,

0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:40.920
<v Speaker 2>this is when we plant food. This is what the

0:13:41.200 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 2>this is what the sky and the you know, like,

0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 2>this is what the seasons are doing, this is what

0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:48.040
<v Speaker 2>the earth is doing right now. So like lining up

0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:50.839
<v Speaker 2>with that as opposed to and now. I will say,

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:54.360
<v Speaker 2>like I'm not trying to be like you know, I

0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:56.440
<v Speaker 2>don't know. I'm not trying to be like a summer

0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.440
<v Speaker 2>bunny when it's fall. Like I'm not going to force

0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:03.840
<v Speaker 2>myself to wear you know, haltertops and short shorts when.

0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:07.640
<v Speaker 3>It's you're not sixty degrees outside. No, oh not I do.

0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:08.480
<v Speaker 4>I will.

0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:09.200
<v Speaker 3>I will say.

0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:11.320
<v Speaker 2>The thing that I love about La fashion is that

0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:14.640
<v Speaker 2>you can wear like pants, flip flops in a trench

0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 2>coat like.

0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:19.360
<v Speaker 3>That that doesn't happen anywhere. That is true, Yeah.

0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:22.160
<v Speaker 2>So fabulous. Like sometimes I'll be on my Pinterest board

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.240
<v Speaker 2>looking at outfits, I'm like, I can wear these all year.

0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:26.920
<v Speaker 2>I can do this anytime. Yeah, and these poor other

0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:30.359
<v Speaker 2>people in other cities and seasons.

0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:32.400
<v Speaker 3>Y'all can't. You can't be wearing No, you can't.

0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Any other thing that maybe made fall like a bigger

0:14:37.440 --> 0:14:39.240
<v Speaker 1>thing to me is fall, at least when I was

0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:41.320
<v Speaker 1>growing up and on the East Coast, it's like two

0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:44.080
<v Speaker 1>or three weeks long, like it's so short, and then

0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:46.920
<v Speaker 1>it's just cold, and then you're just like, oh, winter

0:14:47.120 --> 0:14:49.480
<v Speaker 1>is here, and oh that's so interesting.

0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:52.160
<v Speaker 2>I kind of like was like, no, under the impression

0:14:52.200 --> 0:14:54.320
<v Speaker 2>that was like August, September, October.

0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Was no, No, August is still hot, September could still

0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:02.320
<v Speaker 1>be hot. And then it's like October maybe like the

0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:03.920
<v Speaker 1>first week of November.

0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:04.160
<v Speaker 5>And there's just gold.

0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh sniffs nap, but there's like two weeks of like

0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:09.160
<v Speaker 1>peak fall weather and just you're like, this.

0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:11.560
<v Speaker 2>Is oh, no, wonder you love it?

0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:13.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, because it's yeah, it's like so.

0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:16.400
<v Speaker 2>No wonder people love Gilmore Girls because it's like fall

0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:18.280
<v Speaker 2>for like y episodes.

0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god.

0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:22.360
<v Speaker 2>And one of the things I'm not walking something now, Yes,

0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:24.840
<v Speaker 2>And one of the things that made me like One

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:27.880
<v Speaker 2>of the first things of about La that I loved

0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:30.200
<v Speaker 2>is like you get to like live and fall like

0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:32.200
<v Speaker 2>even winter here it feels like the fall.

0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:36.240
<v Speaker 5>It's yeah, for months and months and months and it's best.

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.600
<v Speaker 3>Emma, are you changing my mind about getting.

0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:41.840
<v Speaker 1>To wear like fall clothes, like the light layers and

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:45.240
<v Speaker 1>the little boots and like the I know we've got

0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:50.320
<v Speaker 1>this is discuss the boots for let's discuss Yes, so

0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:52.120
<v Speaker 1>not all boots are equal.

0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:55.720
<v Speaker 2>Obviously, No, not all boots are equal. We have cowboy

0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:57.440
<v Speaker 2>boots up here and then everything else below.

0:15:57.640 --> 0:15:59.440
<v Speaker 5>Let's agree to disagree.

0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:02.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't think you have the right pair of cowboy boots.

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Listen, they're cute in the right don't even circumstance or location.

0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:10.320
<v Speaker 3>Circumstance, what circumstances not.

0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:11.680
<v Speaker 5>They're stiff.

0:16:12.000 --> 0:16:14.920
<v Speaker 1>They're like, well maybe not, they're all of them stiff,

0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:18.320
<v Speaker 1>but they don't like go with everything.

0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:20.720
<v Speaker 3>They're not as like versatile.

0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:25.120
<v Speaker 2>As what are you fucking talking about?

0:16:25.280 --> 0:16:26.040
<v Speaker 3>Where you know?

0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:30.360
<v Speaker 2>I just think that like a good Like you're telling

0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:32.320
<v Speaker 2>me you can wear a writing boot with shorts.

0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:35.080
<v Speaker 3>No, no, you can't.

0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:38.600
<v Speaker 1>No no, But I'm not trying to wear boots with

0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:40.240
<v Speaker 1>shorts like ever.

0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:04.439
<v Speaker 2>it's like a shorter boot, I'd say, not like an ankle,

0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:07.679
<v Speaker 2>but like maybe like a little a little duller. Yeah,

0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:11.119
<v Speaker 2>it can have like a stacked or cone heel, but

0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:13.040
<v Speaker 2>it's really like a boot that you like pull on.

0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:14.600
<v Speaker 3>You should be able to pull it on you.

0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:19.439
<v Speaker 5>It looks good with everything, It's comfortable.

0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:20.200

<v Speaker 2>have brought today for you because I don't wear them really.

0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean, like, here's the thing.

0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Like what I don't like is the do you remember

0:17:31.000 --> 0:17:32.880
<v Speaker 2>the look that was very popular a couple of years

0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:35.800
<v Speaker 2>ago that was like a skinny jean, an over the

0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:40.760
<v Speaker 2>knee swayed boot with a stacked heel, a big white sweater.

0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:43.119
<v Speaker 3>And a big brown hat. Yeah, was like, why are

0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:43.920
<v Speaker 3>you wearing that hat?

0:17:43.920 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 5>Where you going?

0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:45.160
<v Speaker 4>What are you doing?

0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:45.359
<v Speaker 2>Like?

0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:45.600
<v Speaker 7>Yeah?

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:48.520
<v Speaker 3>Are you riding? Like yeah?

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:51.000
<v Speaker 5>Or is it some protection? Oh my god, did you

0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:51.800
<v Speaker 5>don't wash your hair?

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:52.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't like it.

0:17:52.880 --> 0:17:53.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I don't like it.

0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:57.439
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I bought one of those hats once

0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:00.560
<v Speaker 1>because I was trying to like be in the trend.

0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, I never wore it. It's probably still

0:18:03.160 --> 0:18:11.800
<v Speaker 1>in my closet.

0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:13.240
<v Speaker 3>That's what that.

0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:18.840
<v Speaker 2>What's it called the like fall uh like fall girl?

0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh, it's called we have it here. It's called

0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:28.239
<v Speaker 1>the Christian Christian Girl. And it's that famous picture, you know,

0:18:28.280 --> 0:18:32.040
<v Speaker 1>the one you know where I'm looking at it. Now,

0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:37.480
<v Speaker 1>six of these bitches are wearing the same exact boot,

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:41.480
<v Speaker 1>and I have so many really.

0:18:41.320 --> 0:18:43.520
<v Speaker 3>Clear, we're not making fun of Christianity whatever.

0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:48.439
<v Speaker 1>I just have questions like did one girl buy the

0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:50.080
<v Speaker 1>boots for the rest of the girls?

0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:51.680
<v Speaker 3>Do you think they all called each other and were

0:18:51.720 --> 0:18:53.800
<v Speaker 3>like did they all? Yeah?

0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:56.680
<v Speaker 1>Did they all happen to like own the same boot?

0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:58.520
<v Speaker 1>And that was the thing when they showed up a brunch, like,

0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:00.400
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, boots.

0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:03.360
<v Speaker 5>But then there's two other pairs.

0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:05.879
<v Speaker 3>That look like guys, it's a bad.

0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:08.400
<v Speaker 5>Blue or green maybe it's bad.

0:19:08.600 --> 0:19:12.439
<v Speaker 1>And then there's a random pair of gray boots that

0:19:12.520 --> 0:19:16.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm guessing maybe she's the Queen Bee right because she

0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:20.359
<v Speaker 1>she was like, all you bitches are gonna wear everyone's.

0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Wearing their rest colored boots. Guys, everybody's wearing or the

0:19:23.200 --> 0:19:23.920
<v Speaker 2>dark ones.

0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:26.520
<v Speaker 1>And then she showed up on picture day in her

0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:28.440
<v Speaker 1>gray boots or silver boots.

0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:35.520

<v Speaker 1>then I think I like burned myself out on it.

0:22:17.960 --> 0:22:20.800

<v Speaker 1>a big one that happened every year and it was fun.

0:22:58.640 --> 0:23:01.119

<v Speaker 2>didn't grow up around like apple orchards and stuff. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,

0:23:28.320 --> 0:23:29.480

0:23:38.520 --> 0:23:41.040
<v Speaker 1>apple sauce and pies, half of them go bad because

<v Speaker 1>you can't eat that many apples like so, and then

0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:46.200

<v Speaker 2>you really like this? Did you wear it last year?

0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:35.320
<v Speaker 2>If you didn't wear it last.

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:36.960
<v Speaker 1>Year, so it's time to get it out like yeah,

0:24:37.040 --> 0:24:39.040
<v Speaker 1>I find I like fall a better time to do

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:39.840
<v Speaker 1>that than spring.

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:40.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I did too.

0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:42.960
<v Speaker 2>It just feels like, Okay, let's let's get it done.

0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:46.320
<v Speaker 2>I do feel this sense of like, let's get it

0:24:46.359 --> 0:24:48.720
<v Speaker 2>done in the fall, like I start to get things

0:24:48.760 --> 0:24:50.679
<v Speaker 2>ready for Christmas, I start to get things ready for

0:24:50.720 --> 0:24:53.800
<v Speaker 2>Halloween like this, Like I will say, yeah, there's like

0:24:53.840 --> 0:24:55.520
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of a bit of that.

0:24:56.440 --> 0:24:56.960
<v Speaker 5>Do you.

0:24:59.280 --> 0:25:01.320
<v Speaker 3>Okay? This is an interesting one.

0:25:01.680 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 2>What's the difference between seasonal joy for you and seasonal performance?

0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:07.359
<v Speaker 4>Ooh?

0:25:08.160 --> 0:25:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Because I do think like and this is maybe a

0:25:12.359 --> 0:25:14.560
<v Speaker 2>it's different for everyone. I will say, the thing that

0:25:14.600 --> 0:25:16.920
<v Speaker 2>you and I have in common is being mothers. And

0:25:18.040 --> 0:25:21.000
<v Speaker 2>I think sometimes around the fall there is a little

0:25:21.040 --> 0:25:27.200
<v Speaker 2>bit of performative for me at least of like Kates Palloween,

0:25:27.640 --> 0:25:30.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, yeah, and like get the bunk in yeah,

0:25:30.400 --> 0:25:31.440
<v Speaker 2>or like oh, what do.

0:25:31.400 --> 0:25:31.879
<v Speaker 5>You want to be?

0:25:32.400 --> 0:25:33.040
<v Speaker 3>What do you want to be?

0:25:33.119 --> 0:25:38.080
<v Speaker 2>For I can't even tell you how much girl googling

0:25:38.440 --> 0:25:40.560
<v Speaker 2>I've been doing to try to put together this K

0:25:40.680 --> 0:25:43.720
<v Speaker 2>pop demon Hunter's outfit that she wants and like, I'm

0:25:43.920 --> 0:25:46.399
<v Speaker 2>very stressed about it and I don't and I'm like

0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:48.679
<v Speaker 2>and I can't show it like that to me is

0:25:48.720 --> 0:25:51.479
<v Speaker 2>performative of me to my four year old being like

0:25:51.920 --> 0:25:55.119
<v Speaker 2>yeah and so exciting, And I internally what I feel

0:25:55.160 --> 0:25:57.280
<v Speaker 2>is like I wish that I could do what my

0:25:57.359 --> 0:25:59.600
<v Speaker 2>mom mom did, which was devastating at the time, but

0:25:59.760 --> 0:26:01.520
<v Speaker 2>just like throw me the same pair of ears and

0:26:01.600 --> 0:26:04.400
<v Speaker 2>tail right every year and just be like figure it out,

0:26:04.520 --> 0:26:06.919
<v Speaker 2>you know, like, because that's what my mom did. She

0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:08.359
<v Speaker 2>was like, I don't have time for this, and she

0:26:08.600 --> 0:26:12.600
<v Speaker 2>literally would recycle the stupid the mouse costume and mouth

0:26:12.680 --> 0:26:16.320
<v Speaker 2>the mouse headband broke Melissa, oh no, until it snapped

0:26:16.320 --> 0:26:18.040
<v Speaker 2>one year when we were trigger treating.

0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:19.400
<v Speaker 3>Devastating, awful.

0:26:19.760 --> 0:26:21.680
<v Speaker 2>So that's what I'm doing for my kid, But I'm

0:26:21.680 --> 0:26:24.760
<v Speaker 2>also like, you're paying the ass is the pain in

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:25.400
<v Speaker 2>the ass.

0:26:25.560 --> 0:26:27.440
<v Speaker 1>I made a mistake of asking what do you guys

0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:28.880
<v Speaker 1>think you want to be Valloween?

0:26:29.040 --> 0:26:31.240
<v Speaker 2>And I thought I aided the topic number one.

0:26:31.800 --> 0:26:33.439
<v Speaker 1>I phrased it in a way of like, hey, we

0:26:33.440 --> 0:26:37.159
<v Speaker 1>should start thinking about this so we could decide and

0:26:37.280 --> 0:26:40.240
<v Speaker 1>the next you know, a couple of weeks maybe, and

0:26:40.280 --> 0:26:44.200
<v Speaker 1>then it just like I've said before, Axel's spooky kid

0:26:44.280 --> 0:26:45.000
<v Speaker 1>loves Halloween.

0:26:45.000 --> 0:26:48.399
<v Speaker 5>This is his super Bowl. You can't wait to hear

0:26:48.400 --> 0:26:49.680
<v Speaker 5>it one day.

0:26:50.720 --> 0:26:53.760
<v Speaker 1>He was like watching a toddler spiral, Like he went

0:26:53.920 --> 0:26:56.080
<v Speaker 1>from my god, what were all the costumes he said

0:26:56.080 --> 0:26:58.080
<v Speaker 1>he was going to be. He started as a Stormtrooper,

0:26:58.520 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 1>then he said maybe a Jedi. Then he was going

0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:03.560
<v Speaker 1>to be a Teddy Bear. Then he was going to

0:27:03.600 --> 0:27:06.320
<v Speaker 1>be a skeleton. Then he landed on skeleton and I

0:27:06.359 --> 0:27:08.280
<v Speaker 1>saw like a glow and a dark skeleton.

0:27:08.440 --> 0:27:09.560
<v Speaker 5>He was like pumped.

0:27:10.200 --> 0:27:13.760
<v Speaker 1>But now he's gone back to and now he wants

0:27:13.800 --> 0:27:14.480
<v Speaker 1>to be Chewbacca.

0:27:15.000 --> 0:27:18.280
<v Speaker 5>But and no, and he wants like a real mask

0:27:18.600 --> 0:27:19.240
<v Speaker 5>and then he'll.

0:27:19.080 --> 0:27:20.320
<v Speaker 3>Take it off halfway through.

0:27:20.359 --> 0:27:22.400
<v Speaker 2>Georgereatm because it'll be hot, because that's.

0:27:22.240 --> 0:27:23.240
<v Speaker 3>What I said.

0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:26.280
<v Speaker 1>And then half the Chewbacca masks look like a dog

0:27:26.520 --> 0:27:28.200
<v Speaker 1>and he was like, it just looks like a dog.

0:27:28.240 --> 0:27:30.440
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, I don't do you can't say, but

0:27:30.920 --> 0:27:34.359
<v Speaker 1>this is what's available. I don't I don't know, so

0:27:35.200 --> 0:27:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm not buying anything until he decides.

0:27:38.000 --> 0:27:40.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, which is going to be hard.

0:27:41.160 --> 0:27:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I asked Roz last year. We were in Toronto last

0:27:43.640 --> 0:27:46.800
<v Speaker 2>year for Twisted Metal, and I asked her what she

0:27:46.840 --> 0:27:48.399
<v Speaker 2>wanted to be and she was like, I want to

0:27:48.400 --> 0:27:52.400
<v Speaker 2>be a fairy. I was like okay, and she was like, no,

0:27:52.480 --> 0:27:55.080
<v Speaker 2>I want to be a dragon fairy. And I was

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:58.760
<v Speaker 2>like fuck. So I'm like damn.

0:27:59.080 --> 0:28:03.320
<v Speaker 3>I was going to every children's costume shop in Toronto

0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:03.800
<v Speaker 3>being like.

0:28:03.760 --> 0:28:06.040
<v Speaker 2>Do you have a dragon costume? And do you have

0:28:06.119 --> 0:28:10.600
<v Speaker 2>fairy accessories? Sound a fairy dress and a dragon like

0:28:11.040 --> 0:28:14.600
<v Speaker 2>head with a cake, and then I so lights into

0:28:14.640 --> 0:28:17.000
<v Speaker 2>I cut the head open, I sewed lights into it,

0:28:17.040 --> 0:28:19.240
<v Speaker 2>so like the minute the sun went down and turned

0:28:19.280 --> 0:28:21.320
<v Speaker 2>the lights on, everyone was losing their shit. And I

0:28:21.359 --> 0:28:25.440
<v Speaker 2>was like mentally behind her as every every door opened

0:28:25.480 --> 0:28:28.359
<v Speaker 2>and everyone was like, oh my god, you're a dragon fairy.

0:28:28.640 --> 0:28:30.840
<v Speaker 2>She kept turning around and looking at me like we

0:28:30.960 --> 0:28:33.280
<v Speaker 2>did it, and I in my head, I was like,

0:28:33.760 --> 0:28:37.240
<v Speaker 2>uh no, I now I've set the bar so high. Yeah,

0:28:37.320 --> 0:28:39.680
<v Speaker 2>I've said it so high that I never can fail again,

0:28:40.200 --> 0:28:41.400
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm fucked.

0:28:41.680 --> 0:28:45.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, anyway, Uh yeah, I literally did that.

0:28:45.240 --> 0:28:45.760
<v Speaker 5>With Enzo.

0:28:45.960 --> 0:28:50.600
<v Speaker 1>He started combining Halloween costumes and what was the first

0:28:50.640 --> 0:28:52.360
<v Speaker 1>one I nail. I think it was he wanted to

0:28:52.400 --> 0:28:56.560
<v Speaker 1>be a vampire ninja, and which was a very cool

0:28:56.600 --> 0:28:59.120
<v Speaker 1>idea and we nailed it. And then the next year

0:28:59.320 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 1>he was like still on that train and he was

0:29:02.520 --> 0:29:04.280
<v Speaker 1>like I want to be a kid from the future

0:29:04.360 --> 0:29:06.400
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, no, I want to be a

0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:10.080
<v Speaker 1>cyberpunk and I was like, what does that mean?

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:12.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh, show me pictures showing references.

0:29:12.520 --> 0:29:14.520
<v Speaker 2>Where's your pintustport seven year old?

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:17.360
<v Speaker 1>I had to find like different parts from everywhere and

0:29:17.400 --> 0:29:19.720
<v Speaker 1>then I found this cool like silver puffy vest. But

0:29:19.760 --> 0:29:21.880
<v Speaker 1>then it was eighty degrees and it was like too

0:29:21.920 --> 0:29:24.800
<v Speaker 1>warm for it. Anyway, it was a disaster. So thankfully

0:29:24.800 --> 0:29:26.480
<v Speaker 1>he's back to just like a costume.

0:29:26.600 --> 0:29:28.920
<v Speaker 2>I do want them to have a great time. Yeah,

0:29:29.040 --> 0:29:31.160
<v Speaker 2>it does feel the most performative of the I.

0:29:31.120 --> 0:29:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Know, yeah, some moms love Halloween, but and there feels

0:29:33.760 --> 0:29:38.640
<v Speaker 1>pressure to like show a kid that, like, yeah, I

0:29:38.640 --> 0:29:40.720
<v Speaker 1>think there's gonna be a balance, like when she gets older.

0:29:41.040 --> 0:29:43.360
<v Speaker 2>It's like what you said, like this is what's available. Like,

0:29:43.520 --> 0:29:44.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what you want me to do. I

0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:47.200
<v Speaker 2>can't make magic out of thin air, but it is.

0:29:47.280 --> 0:29:49.360
<v Speaker 2>It does feel like I don't want to show her

0:29:49.840 --> 0:29:53.480
<v Speaker 2>that I hate this because I don't want her to

0:29:53.520 --> 0:29:57.840
<v Speaker 2>feel yeah bad for asking me, because I remember being

0:29:57.840 --> 0:30:00.600
<v Speaker 2>a kid and asking my mom and get thrown the

0:30:00.640 --> 0:30:03.440
<v Speaker 2>same tail and yeah, set of ears for four years

0:30:03.480 --> 0:30:03.960
<v Speaker 2>in a row.

0:30:04.120 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 3>You know, okay, the financial pressure of buying seasonal everything.

0:30:17.040 --> 0:30:20.800
<v Speaker 3>Now this one. Oh that's not me, that's not me.

0:30:21.400 --> 0:30:24.720
<v Speaker 1>I feel like my mom and I have a friend

0:30:24.720 --> 0:30:28.360
<v Speaker 1>who does this too, would like switch out parts of

0:30:28.400 --> 0:30:34.480
<v Speaker 1>that home decor, like the blankets, the candles, the pillows

0:30:34.480 --> 0:30:38.040
<v Speaker 1>on the sofa would yeah, like there would be winter

0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:39.720
<v Speaker 1>ones and spring ones.

0:30:39.840 --> 0:30:44.600
<v Speaker 6>That feels like so much fucking work, especially like do

0:30:44.640 --> 0:30:47.200
<v Speaker 6>you know how much time I take deciding on what

0:30:47.440 --> 0:30:49.720
<v Speaker 6>throw pillows I want to put on my couch and

0:30:49.760 --> 0:30:51.680
<v Speaker 6>then six months later I'm like, I need no.

0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:56.200
<v Speaker 1>One really, Yes, throw pillows for some reason are.

0:30:57.680 --> 0:30:58.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:30:58.400 --> 0:31:01.360
<v Speaker 1>That's just like a really old one. Be cute, that's

0:31:01.400 --> 0:31:04.840
<v Speaker 1>so interesting. Yeah, I have the same throw.

0:31:04.680 --> 0:31:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Pillows for like, probably too long.

0:31:07.040 --> 0:31:09.400
<v Speaker 1>I the ones I have now are probably the ones

0:31:09.440 --> 0:31:11.920
<v Speaker 1>I like the most, and we've had them the longest.

0:31:11.960 --> 0:31:14.400
<v Speaker 1>But already the other day I was like, ooh, these

0:31:14.480 --> 0:31:16.440
<v Speaker 1>these other ones are kind of getting like a little.

0:31:16.880 --> 0:31:18.680
<v Speaker 5>I was like, oh man, what am I should just

0:31:18.720 --> 0:31:20.760
<v Speaker 5>buy that same one? I started a spiral like, oh

0:31:20.800 --> 0:31:21.160
<v Speaker 5>my god.

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:25.240
<v Speaker 1>So the thought of like finding multiple throw pillows for

0:31:25.360 --> 0:31:29.560
<v Speaker 1>different seasons, for different seasons, also, where are you storing that?

0:31:29.640 --> 0:31:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean obviously you're getting the zipper kind and they're

0:31:31.920 --> 0:31:34.040
<v Speaker 1>going but like I've you know, like.

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:35.840
<v Speaker 5>I got limited storage here.

0:31:36.400 --> 0:31:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Like I think, if it brings you, if you if

0:31:39.080 --> 0:31:42.240
<v Speaker 2>it brings you joy, you do you don't it's I

0:31:42.240 --> 0:31:45.440
<v Speaker 2>would say, it's cheerful. Don't go overboard because that's where

0:31:45.480 --> 0:31:47.520
<v Speaker 2>I get in trouble because I'm like, I'm in home

0:31:47.520 --> 0:31:49.640
<v Speaker 2>goods being like, oh my god, that's so cute.

0:31:49.680 --> 0:31:51.360
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god, that's cute. Oh my god, that's so cute.

0:31:51.360 --> 0:31:54.120
<v Speaker 2>And then suddenly my car is full and I'm like

0:31:54.160 --> 0:31:56.080
<v Speaker 2>I won't need any of this stuff and I'm never

0:31:56.120 --> 0:31:58.880
<v Speaker 2>gonna use it again, Like it's gonna you know, I

0:31:58.920 --> 0:31:59.280
<v Speaker 2>will do.

0:31:59.400 --> 0:32:01.680
<v Speaker 1>I love get My mom would always get the mini pumpkins.

0:32:01.680 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 1>I do get the mini pumpkins and I put them

0:32:03.800 --> 0:32:06.680
<v Speaker 1>on the dining table and like the coffee table like that.

0:32:07.040 --> 0:32:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I also find this.

0:32:09.360 --> 0:32:11.160
<v Speaker 3>This is like a holiday tip.

0:32:11.320 --> 0:32:15.240
<v Speaker 2>But the the library is such an incredible resource for

0:32:15.320 --> 0:32:20.719
<v Speaker 2>like craft books because Martha Stewart particularly has like a

0:32:20.760 --> 0:32:23.960

<v Speaker 2>and like, you know, like make a little fairy houses

0:32:35.000 --> 0:32:40.520
<v Speaker 2>and stuff and like put little like like.

0:32:38.960 --> 0:32:42.080
<v Speaker 3>Like mushrooms and like little dolls and stuff.

0:32:42.160 --> 0:32:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Okay, So I want to like get to wrapping

0:32:44.560 --> 0:32:45.520
<v Speaker 2>this up because I feel.

0:32:45.320 --> 0:32:46.360
<v Speaker 3>Like we could talk about this forever.

0:32:46.480 --> 0:32:47.480
<v Speaker 5>I know, I really could.

0:32:49.200 --> 0:32:52.760
<v Speaker 2>I do want to talk about the nerd stuff for

0:32:53.120 --> 0:32:53.640
<v Speaker 2>a second.

0:32:53.760 --> 0:32:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, while you look at it, you really thought

0:32:55.560 --> 0:33:02.560
<v Speaker 1>that was Lenny Kravitt in his our big scarf fall vibes.

0:33:02.640 --> 0:33:05.440
<v Speaker 5>Gods, such a good scarf. It's like a throw blend.

0:33:05.520 --> 0:33:08.280
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, a throb blend or is it.

0:33:08.560 --> 0:33:10.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, It's like I like the way.

0:33:10.000 --> 0:33:12.760
<v Speaker 1>The top part looks, but that bottom part that's hanging

0:33:12.880 --> 0:33:13.880
<v Speaker 1>is a lot.

0:33:14.320 --> 0:33:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Okay, two things, okay. Homo temperous seasonal cycles as a

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 2>fundamental source of variation in human psychology. This is a

0:33:24.000 --> 0:33:27.120
<v Speaker 2>recent study that argued that, despite ample evidence that humans

0:33:27.120 --> 0:33:29.720
<v Speaker 2>are responsive to seasons, the impact of seasonal changes on

0:33:30.440 --> 0:33:34.880
<v Speaker 2>human psychology is underappreciated. So it's like, yes, oh yeah,

0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.200
<v Speaker 2>the seasons are changing, but it actually does.

0:33:37.040 --> 0:33:38.480
<v Speaker 3>Affect us in a pretty strong way.

0:33:38.480 --> 0:33:42.080
<v Speaker 2>The researchers made the case that seasonal variation should be

0:33:42.080 --> 0:33:46.280
<v Speaker 2>considered a fundamental factor in understanding human behavior, not just

0:33:46.320 --> 0:33:50.120
<v Speaker 2>an afterthought. So, like the vibe around the season is

0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:52.440
<v Speaker 2>a real thing. It's not just something imagined. It's not

0:33:52.560 --> 0:33:56.800
<v Speaker 2>just like a collective like weird trend, right, Like it

0:33:56.840 --> 0:34:02.320
<v Speaker 2>is an actual thing, like going back to school, getting

0:34:02.320 --> 0:34:04.960
<v Speaker 2>your house ready for the fall, Like feeling like you

0:34:05.040 --> 0:34:07.600
<v Speaker 2>need to like make sure that everything is kind of

0:34:07.640 --> 0:34:10.359
<v Speaker 2>like ready is a real Like it's a real thing.

0:34:10.440 --> 0:34:11.080
<v Speaker 5>That makes sense.

0:34:12.320 --> 0:34:14.360
<v Speaker 2>And then this thing that I thought was really interesting,

0:34:15.360 --> 0:34:17.880
<v Speaker 2>cognitive performance in fall. So this goes back to the

0:34:17.880 --> 0:34:19.360
<v Speaker 2>first thing that you talked about, where you were like,

0:34:19.440 --> 0:34:23.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm on, I'm firing on all cylinders. Research showing that

0:34:23.200 --> 0:34:27.080
<v Speaker 2>people did significantly better on tests of thinking and concentration

0:34:27.360 --> 0:34:29.719
<v Speaker 2>in the late summer and early autumn versus the winter

0:34:29.800 --> 0:34:33.560
<v Speaker 2>and early spring. This wasn't related to mood or exercise levels,

0:34:33.600 --> 0:34:39.680
<v Speaker 2>suggesting that there's something inherently cognitively beneficial about fall, right.

0:34:39.760 --> 0:34:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's like all the things, like you know, the

0:34:43.000 --> 0:34:47.040
<v Speaker 1>things we do, like New Year's resolutions, making goals, making whatever,

0:34:47.200 --> 0:34:52.080
<v Speaker 1>spring cleaning, Like I feel that energy more in the fall. Yeah,

0:34:52.280 --> 0:34:55.279
<v Speaker 1>like I feel like I can set goals better, I

0:34:55.320 --> 0:34:58.040
<v Speaker 1>can be clearer, I can what do I want to

0:34:58.120 --> 0:34:59.960
<v Speaker 1>like manifest or like.

0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:03.600
<v Speaker 5>Put energy towards. I'm all the like organizing.

0:35:05.520 --> 0:35:09.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I just feel because I feel like New Year's

0:35:10.480 --> 0:35:14.239
<v Speaker 1>you're like burnt out from all the fucking holidays. It's

0:35:14.280 --> 0:35:16.640
<v Speaker 1>like I wanna I just want to sleep. I want

0:35:16.680 --> 0:35:20.359
<v Speaker 1>to think about goals. I wanna do this right now

0:35:21.040 --> 0:35:24.040
<v Speaker 1>and then and then it's like cold, and when I

0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:25.360
<v Speaker 1>used to live on the East Coast, I used to

0:35:25.360 --> 0:35:28.359
<v Speaker 1>get like seasonal depression in winter and that would made

0:35:28.360 --> 0:35:31.920
<v Speaker 1>it really hard to be productive. And then spring is

0:35:31.960 --> 0:35:35.880
<v Speaker 1>like the idea of spring cleaning, like I might purge

0:35:35.880 --> 0:35:38.200
<v Speaker 1>in the spring, like get rid of a lot of shit.

0:35:38.320 --> 0:35:42.680
<v Speaker 1>But I'm not organizing. I'm not like doing something that's

0:35:42.719 --> 0:35:45.680
<v Speaker 1>necessarily productive because I feel like you just want to

0:35:45.719 --> 0:35:48.399
<v Speaker 1>be outside because the weather is finally nice again and

0:35:48.560 --> 0:35:50.880
<v Speaker 1>you want to do like outdoor things, and it's like

0:35:51.000 --> 0:35:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't and I'm still.

0:35:52.360 --> 0:35:53.480
<v Speaker 5>Tired from winter.

0:35:55.200 --> 0:35:57.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, so it makes sense. That makes sense to me.

0:35:57.120 --> 0:35:58.799
<v Speaker 1>That one makes a lot of sense to feel. Thank

0:35:58.800 --> 0:35:59.320
<v Speaker 1>you science.

0:36:02.200 --> 0:36:04.480
<v Speaker 2>I do think that this one's really interesting because I

0:36:04.520 --> 0:36:06.960
<v Speaker 2>do I know our audience is like a lot a

0:36:07.000 --> 0:36:09.560
<v Speaker 2>lot of different kinds of people hopefully, but I think

0:36:09.600 --> 0:36:14.240
<v Speaker 2>a lot of our listeners are women. Consumer behavior changes

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:18.279
<v Speaker 2>a lot with the seasons, and like it's influenced by

0:36:18.360 --> 0:36:21.480
<v Speaker 2>activities associated with the seasons, which makes a lot of

0:36:21.520 --> 0:36:29.120
<v Speaker 2>sense obviously. I think marketing wise, we've hit like peak marketing.

0:36:29.840 --> 0:36:32.279
<v Speaker 2>I think we're gonna hit it every year. But I

0:36:32.320 --> 0:36:35.080
<v Speaker 2>do feel like that's part of my resistance to fall

0:36:35.840 --> 0:36:38.600
<v Speaker 2>is my own response to some of the marketing yeah,

0:36:38.719 --> 0:36:40.560
<v Speaker 2>is like I don't want to shove down my throat,

0:36:40.600 --> 0:36:43.239
<v Speaker 2>but also like it is happening anyway.

0:36:43.760 --> 0:36:44.720
<v Speaker 3>They're just trying to make.

0:36:44.600 --> 0:36:47.520
<v Speaker 2>Their bags, so like, yeah, you know whatever, But yeah,

0:36:47.560 --> 0:36:50.400
<v Speaker 2>I get that, the like yeah, little rebel inside you

0:36:50.560 --> 0:36:52.440
<v Speaker 2>was like, no, yeah, I don't need to put on

0:36:52.480 --> 0:36:55.479
<v Speaker 2>a spider or jacket the same time at the same time.

0:36:55.640 --> 0:37:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Like culturally, when I see when I'm like in the

0:37:00.960 --> 0:37:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Walmart and I see like Picado, you know what I mean,

0:37:04.160 --> 0:37:06.439
<v Speaker 2>Like it makes me feel like, oh I'm here, I'm

0:37:06.480 --> 0:37:08.640
<v Speaker 2>like my people are here, you know, and it makes

0:37:08.640 --> 0:37:10.040
<v Speaker 2>me feel like a part of it. It makes me

0:37:10.080 --> 0:37:13.040
<v Speaker 2>feel like culturally and not being ignored and being like

0:37:13.880 --> 0:37:20.080
<v Speaker 2>catered to, which makes me very excited. Yeah, yeah, I do.

0:37:20.200 --> 0:37:23.160
<v Speaker 2>I really do love that about this time of year

0:37:23.440 --> 0:37:27.040
<v Speaker 2>when I see more of like my culture reflected in

0:37:27.160 --> 0:37:30.480
<v Speaker 2>like what's happening in marketing and stuff.

0:37:30.680 --> 0:37:31.719
<v Speaker 3>Like when I see like.

0:37:31.719 --> 0:37:33.680
<v Speaker 2>When we were at Disneyland and there's like altars for

0:37:33.719 --> 0:37:35.480
<v Speaker 2>the Ottos and there's like, oh, it was.

0:37:35.480 --> 0:37:41.040
<v Speaker 1>So Beauty's it's beautiful little Ganko murals right there, like

0:37:41.080 --> 0:37:43.400
<v Speaker 1>there's like stuff from Cocoa, and like it makes me

0:37:43.440 --> 0:37:44.160
<v Speaker 1>feel really like.

0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, like we are part of the fabric of

0:37:47.040 --> 0:37:50.320
<v Speaker 2>the United States, like our culture, and like we are part.

0:37:50.160 --> 0:37:50.840
<v Speaker 3>Of this season.

0:37:50.960 --> 0:37:53.239
<v Speaker 2>And I also want to invite other people to, like

0:37:53.440 --> 0:37:57.400
<v Speaker 2>if you haven't ever celebrated the little Martos, like maybe

0:37:57.400 --> 0:37:58.759
<v Speaker 2>this is your year to try it.

0:37:58.880 --> 0:38:01.640
<v Speaker 3>Like it's for every buddy. It is literally forever.

0:38:01.680 --> 0:38:03.680
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really celebrate it til I moved here. I

0:38:03.680 --> 0:38:05.960
<v Speaker 1>mean it's cause it's not really celebrated in New York,

0:38:06.000 --> 0:38:06.920
<v Speaker 1>New Jersey, right.

0:38:06.840 --> 0:38:10.920
<v Speaker 2>Like, and I think it's it's got deeply Mexican roots,

0:38:10.920 --> 0:38:14.319
<v Speaker 2>but I think like for everybody it can become a

0:38:14.360 --> 0:38:17.680
<v Speaker 2>part of your fall like celebration because like it's about family.

0:38:17.840 --> 0:38:23.840
<v Speaker 5>It's like beautiful tradition and yeah, more better.

0:38:25.480 --> 0:38:27.160
<v Speaker 2>What did you learn today? I'll tell you what I

0:38:27.239 --> 0:38:28.920
<v Speaker 2>learned that I maybe don't hate fall as much as

0:38:28.920 --> 0:38:31.719
<v Speaker 2>I thought. Yeah, you don't. I do hate an over

0:38:31.760 --> 0:38:34.840
<v Speaker 2>the knee suede boot, who I have worn them.

0:38:34.680 --> 0:38:36.120
<v Speaker 3>Before twenty sixteen.

0:38:36.680 --> 0:38:39.600
<v Speaker 2>I like feel I don't know, I like feel like

0:38:39.640 --> 0:38:41.080
<v Speaker 2>maybe I don't hate it as much as I thought

0:38:41.080 --> 0:38:43.200
<v Speaker 2>I did, or at least like I don't, I'm not

0:38:43.239 --> 0:38:44.120
<v Speaker 2>as resistant to it.

0:38:44.320 --> 0:38:45.920
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yeah, yeah, I love that.

0:38:46.600 --> 0:38:49.360
<v Speaker 1>I think my takeaway is I I, until this conversation,

0:38:49.480 --> 0:38:52.840
<v Speaker 1>didn't realize that like fall is when I'm really going

0:38:52.920 --> 0:38:56.400
<v Speaker 1>to get shit done, Like you know, I think I

0:38:56.480 --> 0:38:59.600
<v Speaker 1>just saw. I wasn't as conscious of it until this

0:38:59.680 --> 0:39:04.359
<v Speaker 1>particular kind of fall and this conversation. And I think

0:39:04.400 --> 0:39:08.239
<v Speaker 1>it's good to notice that, to like be maybe even

0:39:08.320 --> 0:39:09.600
<v Speaker 1>more intentional every year.

0:39:09.760 --> 0:39:11.600
<v Speaker 2>It's you know, funny because like when I think of you,

0:39:11.680 --> 0:39:15.279
<v Speaker 2>I think of like fall jeans, a Chelsea boot, a

0:39:15.360 --> 0:39:18.200
<v Speaker 2>brown bag over your shoulder, a laser, and like a

0:39:18.239 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 2>coffee in your hand, like yes.

0:39:20.000 --> 0:39:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Doing stuff, getting dun god, Yes, yeah yeah, been wearing

0:39:24.239 --> 0:39:25.480
<v Speaker 1>it since my twenties.

0:39:25.840 --> 0:39:30.560
<v Speaker 3>It's classic. It's classic for a reason. Do you feel

0:39:30.600 --> 0:39:32.560
<v Speaker 3>a little more better? Always feel a little more better.

0:39:32.880 --> 0:39:36.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I do. I think I embracefall culture. Maybe

0:39:37.000 --> 0:39:38.959
<v Speaker 2>not Christian Girl Autumn.

0:39:38.960 --> 0:39:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Maybe not, but that particular brand of alternative fall.

0:39:44.920 --> 0:39:48.000
<v Speaker 2>I like alternative fall, alternative Fall.

0:39:48.640 --> 0:39:51.160
<v Speaker 5>Okay, would mind be you guys? Alternative?

0:39:51.480 --> 0:39:51.800
