9
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 2: What I was reminded of the Bobby McFerrin classic Don't

10
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: Worry Be Happy the other day as it was listed

11
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 2: on the Worst Songs of the nineties.

12
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: I guess something that very popular. It was a cute

13
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: little ditty. It's fine. I don't know, it's fine.

14
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 2: People love, you know, slamming other people's choices in music

15
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 2: too much.

16
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: I gotta hate on being happy? Yeah, right, exactly.

17
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 2: But don't Happy Be Worried is the theme kind of

18
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: sort of a really interesting study that's out.

19
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: Researchers from the.

20
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: University of Toronto, Scarborough and University of Sydney, the Canuckers

21
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: joining up with the Australians. Trump will be you know,

22
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 2: annexing them both soon. But anyway, for now, we'll let

23
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: them have their cute little universities.

24
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: But they they right.

25
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: We live in a happiness obsessed world. Self help guru's

26
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 2: promise paths to Bliss, Instagram influencers pedal. Happiness is a lifestyle,

27
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: and corporations build marketing campaigns around the pursuit of positive emotions.

28
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 2: But new research suggests, say surprising twist.

29
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: I doubt yeah exactly.

30
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: Trying to art to be happy might make you miserable.

31
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 2: The researchers that the aforementioned universities found that actively pursuing

32
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: happiness drains our mental energy, the same energy we need

33
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 2: for self control, among other things. Says the researcher, the

34
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 2: pursuit of happiness is a bit like a snowball effect.

35
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 2: You decide to try making yourself happier, but then that

36
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 2: effort deplete your ability to do the kinds of things

37
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 2: that actually make you happier.

38
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 1: All right, Well, there's the key right there. What kind

39
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 1: of things actually make you happy?

40
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 3: So among my favorite books I've ever read in my

41
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 3: life the Art of Happiness by the Dali Lama, which

42
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 3: he says, your goal every morning when you wake.

43
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: Up should be to make yourself happy. You should spend

44
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: all your time trying to make yourself happy. That's what

45
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: you should do.

46
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 3: But it gets down to the data on what makes

47
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 3: you happy and what doesn't. And many, many of the

48
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 3: things we all do every single day don't make us happy.

49
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 3: They've never made us happy. We have ample evidence from

50
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 3: our own experience, let alone other people's experience, that it

51
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 3: doesn't make us happy, yet we continue doing it, like

52
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 3: eating bad food or buying stuff, or promiscuous sex or

53
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 3: whatever it is. It has never made us in the happy,

54
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 3: It doesn't make other people happy, yet we keep thinking

55
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 3: that's what's gonna make us happy. So pursuing happiness every

56
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 3: day is okay. You just need to define what makes

57
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 3: people actually makes people happy.

58
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 2: Maybe this is the key. Pleasure is not happiness. Fun

59
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 2: is not happiness, right, it can be part of it.

60
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: We mentioned all them. No life of purpose is what

61
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: makes people happy? Yeah? Yeah, happy happy. You wake up

62
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: determined to have a great day.

63
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 2: You plan mood boosting activities and work hard to stay positive,

64
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 2: but by evening you're ordering takeout instead of cooking. Mindlessly

65
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 2: scrolling social media and snapping at your partner, while your

66
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: pursuit of happiness might be the problem. The scientist marketing

67
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 2: professor puts it bluntly. Quote, the more mentally run down

68
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 2: we are, the more tempted will be to skip cleaning

69
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 2: the house and instead scroll social media.

70
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 3: And they're saying the same thing as the Dalai Lama says,

71
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 3: I just I like the way he words it. It's

72
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 3: a little more positive. Pursue happiness all day, every day.

73
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 3: That should be your goal in life, that should be

74
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 3: everybody's goal. But now let's break down what actually makes

75
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 3: people happy, as opposed to saying don't pursue happiness, because

76
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 3: then it seems like it's a gotta eat my vegetables,

77
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 3: gotta you know, all negative stuff and maybe there'll be

78
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:33,920
Speaker 3: a payoff.

79
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: In the end. Right.

80
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: It's like the difference between pursuing money and pursuing the

81
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 2: skills that will make you money. In a way, Katie,

82
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 2: do you have something you want to jump in with?

83
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 2: You look thoughtful.

84
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 4: I I'm kind of overthinking this, I think Okay, to

85
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 4: be honest, Well, it's.

86
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 3: It's amazing that human beings do things that make themselves

87
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 3: unhappy all the time, all the time. It's just like

88
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 3: one of the most common things we do is do

89
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 3: things that make us unhappy. Eat stuff that's gonna make

90
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 3: us either feel bad in the moment or make us

91
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 3: feel bad long term, or you know, pursue relationships that

92
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 3: we know aren't good. But there's either sex, prestige, whatever

93
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 3: that that makes you do it. Just we regularly chase

94
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 3: things that we know are bad for us, right right.

95
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 4: My brain was going with, like, things you don't want

96
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 4: to do, but the payoff in the end is good.

97
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 3: Oh, the simplest one is the stirring at your phone.

98
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 3: Nobody ever, at the end of the day says I'm

99
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,559
Speaker 3: sure glad I spent that much time scrolling on my phone.

100
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: Nobody ever, not even for one day, right right.

101
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: I was just going to contrast doom scrolling on Twitter,

102
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 2: which I have the compulsion to do and I resist

103
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 2: pretty well most times, versus the other day. I mean,

104
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 2: this is as mundane as can be. I cleaned out

105
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 2: my closet. I went through it thin, the herd of clothing,

106
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 2: you know, shoes that don't where, etc. It's neater, it's

107
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 2: better organized. It's just it's better. And that made me happy,

108
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 2: right Like happy. Yeah, like today, I was not pleasurable.

109
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,279
Speaker 4: I would love to lay on my couch all day,

110
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 4: but I know I have laundry to do, and when

111
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 4: I get it done, I'm going to be happy that

112
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 4: it's done.

113
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, I.

114
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,159
Speaker 2: Was just reading an obituary of a fella that I

115
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: barely knew, and it was post retirement, I'm pretty sure.

116
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 2: But he filled his life with the Boys and Girls

117
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 2: Club of the area where he lived, and it was

118
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 2: really pivotal in guiding them through difficult financial times and

119
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 2: growing the programs and stuff like that. I'll bet there

120
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 2: was very little of that that was pleasurable. Some of

121
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 2: it was because watching kids learn and grow is immensely satisfying,

122
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,799
Speaker 2: but there's a hell of a lot of work there,

123
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 2: and I guarantee that made him happy to his soul.

124
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 5: I think the best happiness comes from accomplishments. It could

125
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 5: be like mowing the grass. Like you're pushing the mower

126
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 5: and you look back and you see what you've done,

127
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 5: and then when you're all finished, you look at and you think, hey,

128
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 5: I'm really feeling happy.

129
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: So why then, evolutionary speaking, why are we is our

130
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 1: body screaming out to now mow the lawn tomorrow, lay

131
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: on on the couch watching this football game is what.

132
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 3: It's going to make me happy. Even though you're absolutely right. Afterwards,

133
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 3: I think, why did I watch? I don't even care

134
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 3: about these two teams as opposed to you'll feel happy

135
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 3: after you all the one.

136
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: Well, the greatest minds of our time are devoted toward

137
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: getting you to do things for pleasure for their profit

138
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:42,239
Speaker 2: in a way.

139
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: That didn't exist.

140
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 2: I mean even two hundred years ago there's advertisement, but

141
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: it was not nearly as effective, manipulative and scientifically based

142
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: as modern you know, like like Facebook, TikTok. My god,

143
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 2: we as a species don't stand a chance against that

144
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 2: sort of neurological manipul.

145
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've noticed recently. I don't know if my well,

146
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: I just I guess I just started doing the Instagram

147
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: reels thing. I'd never done it beforeth It's kind of

148
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: the American version of TikTok, I guess. Anyway.

149
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 3: What's disappointing to me is it's not like doom scrolling

150
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 3: or something where I think why did I do that?

151
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 3: Or it's pretty good, it's pretty enjoyable. It feeds me

152
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 3: lots of stuff.

153
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: I really like, I mean like really like, here's some

154
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: rare concert footage that it figured out i'd be into

155
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: that I've never seen before and stuff like that. But

156
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: it kills a freaking hour where I should either been

157
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: sleeping or exercising or whatever. So it's actually it's actually enjoyable,

158
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: like really enjoyable in the time. So that's what I

159
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: got to fight now is not even start. I am

160
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: going to further parse language.

161
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 2: You got pleasure, you got happiness, and Michael, to your point,

162
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 2: you have satisfaction. Maybe that's another word to think about

163
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 2: happiness and satisfaction as opposed to pleasure.

164
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 1: If you don't say you're retired and you don't really

165
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: need to accomplish anything.

166
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: That's when it's the most important, according to everybody I've

167
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 2: talked to, to have some purpose.

168
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 3: You don't think you could just look at Instagram reels

169
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 3: feeding your stuff that you actually enjoy and be okay,

170
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 3: or would you be miserable.

171
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: You'll be dead soon. I don't know. I can't state

172
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: that you know with confidence, but.

173
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: I've read a fair amount about retirement, which is funny

174
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: because I don't know.

175
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: Probably like my job too much.

176
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 2: But yeah, if you're the sort of person who just

177
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 2: retires and you have nothing to do.

178
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 1: It makes people miserable even if you have things to do.

179
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 2: You have TikTok. You have something to do. And the

180
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 2: golf course, I just play golf. I look at TikTok

181
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 2: Cup of the morning. I go play golf again that

182
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 2: I look at TikTok.

183
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've since I started on Instagram reels. It's in

184
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 3: the TikTok algorithm. Scares me if it's substantially better. Like

185
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 3: I was listening to Sarah Iger of The Dispatch saying,

186
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 3: if you think Instagram reels is addictive, you have no idea.

187
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 3: Because she got sucked into TikTok and then got it

188
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 3: off her phone. She says, just so good. It's just

189
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 3: every day stuff. I love that. I'm super into.

190
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: My daughter did the same thing. That's why I feel

191
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: with Instagram reels, like, man, is it good? With coming

192
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: up stuff that I like? S and l clips, concert videos,

193
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: stuff that I just love. But you can't, you know,

194
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: want to live their life doing that.

195
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's you know, Lord knows, I've lived a checkered life.

196
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: But one gift that I got somehow or other, And

197
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 2: this may shock you folks. I used to take walks

198
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 2: on the wild side now and again, not in the

199
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: lou reads and it's not gender bending madness, but you know,

200
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 2: occasionally in the I could roll a world of the

201
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: eighties and nineties, there were substances about and there are

202
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 2: a couple of experiences I had where I thought, no,

203
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 2: I like this too much.

204
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so it is with the tickety talk.

205
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 2: From what I've heard, you realize I am powerless against this.

206
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is like an endless.

207
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 4: They provide you endless entertainment on there, especially when they

208
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 4: figure out what you like.

209
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: I mean, you could do that.

210
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 3: For hours that I wonder if that's what happened. I

211
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 3: wonder if I spend enough time on Instagram that it

212
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: was able to Okay, now we know we got him

213
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 3: figured out. Yeah, because it just seems like in the

214
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 3: last week or so, it's like really grabbed me.

215
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 4: Well, And what sucks about that is because I thought,

216
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 4: I I'm a dumb ass. I thought I could outsmart

217
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,559
Speaker 4: the algorithm because I thought, maybe if I don't interact

218
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 4: with any posts, you don't like anything.

219
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: I don't interact with any of them, but it picks

220
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: up your eyeballs or no, it picks up your watch time.

221
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 4: So if you so like let's say you're scrolling, you

222
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 4: stop on a video and you spend the time to

223
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 4: watch that video, the algorithm goes, Okay, we kept him

224
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:01,719
Speaker 4: here for such and such a.

225
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 3: Second because I didn't click on it. I didn't do anything.

226
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 3: It was just part of a stream.

227
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: It's just because you watched it. I am going to

228
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 2: rewatch on YouTube. The social dilemma. The thing is so

229
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 2: good documentary, Jack, you gotta watch that. You got it,

230
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:18,679
Speaker 2: You just gotta.

231
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 3: Can They put it in twenty second chunks on a

232
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 3: Instagram reel.

233
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 1: Jeez, we can't save him? Was I gonna say? I

234
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: had one more thing to say about this. It's just

235
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: how good it is at figuring out stuff that you

236
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: really really like. It's it's troubling, actually, and there's stuff

237
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: that it would have been hard for me to find,

238
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 1: like on my own. Oh I was.

239
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 3: I was thinking about they fixed what used to be.

240
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 3: I don't know if you're old enough for this or not.

241
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 1: Katie.

242
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 3: You probably are back when you used to. You want something,

243
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 3: You sit down, you think, how do I have one

244
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty channels and there's nothing I like? Here

245
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 3: you click through and there's nothing you like. They fixed that.

246
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 3: It's the opposite. Now you like every single thing on

247
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 3: every channel. They know exactly what you're into. They got

248
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 3: your sports thing, your music thing, your kid's thing. You're

249
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 3: just every every channel is something you love as you

250
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 3: click through. It's the exact opposite of what he used

251
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 3: to be.

252
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 2: Right, Leggy blonde guitar players playing golf, constant videos, sexy

253
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: golfing guitarists giving me lessons.

254
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: With a dog doing something funny and a kid doing

255
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: something cute. Yes, yes, see.

256
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 5: If you guys agree with this, false happiness comes immediately,

257
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 5: Real happiness comes later.

258
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: You have to wait for real happy. Pretty much always

259
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: is the case. You The Armstrong and Getdy Show. Yeah,

260
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: more Jack, your show podcasts and our Hot Lakes The

261
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getdy Show.

262
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 3: I'm thinking of doing a feature. Maybe I'll do it

263
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 3: on Twitter someplace called did you eat worse than me today?

264
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 1: Wow? Yeah?

265
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 3: Actually my brother might be even better at that. Put

266
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 3: up against that, like take it at the end of

267
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 3: the day, take a look at what he ate. See

268
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 3: if anybody ate worse that? But like yesterday, here here's

269
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 3: what I ate yesterday.

270
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: I had.

271
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 3: Uh well, I had like through almost four hours of

272
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 3: zoom calls with various doctors and therapists after working in

273
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 3: a variety of other things. So it's just constantly running

274
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 3: around stressful pain and the ass.

275
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: Stuff and to make a person completely insane. But anyway,

276
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: so I just running from one thing to another thing

277
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: to another thing and having to make major decisions of

278
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: this or so. But so I went through drive through,

279
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: got four cheeseburgers and McDonald's and then I went home

280
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 1: and washed that down with some chocolate birthday cake. So

281
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: that was like the major portion of my eating yesterday. Wow.

282
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: And uh, I just I thought, does anybody, especially my age,

283
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: eating as poorly as me? And how is my body

284
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: just not stopped? Just said, all right, if you don't care,

285
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: we don't care. Drop dead. You know, there's probably somebody

286
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: out there that can best you. But you know, I'm

287
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: guessing there like a six hundred pound trucker or something

288
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: like that. I can't beget us. I tell you what

289
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: I was thinking to you yesterday.

290
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:17,920
Speaker 2: I was fighting through one of those miserable situations where

291
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,840
Speaker 2: the tax guy says, you've got to have this form

292
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 2: I tind to do with a health savings account.

293
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: Oh ah, and the.

294
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 2: Benefits people at the one of the fabulous and patriotic

295
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 2: American corporations that we're associated with. Theoretically they have this

296
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 2: form theoretically, but you got to get signed in. I

297
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 2: sign in two accounts that have that same user ID

298
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 2: every day, every day. But apparently for this sub account,

299
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 2: that user that password does not count. So it was

300
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 2: a back and forth with Benefits and HR with various

301
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 2: double authenticated signing codes and the rest of it. And

302
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: it was my brilliant wife, myself, my iPhone, my iPad,

303
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 2: and my MacBook.

304
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: All involved in an all ferens. It's like a Mike

305
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: Lyons is always talking about how you have to have

306
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 1: the infantry and air support and artillery and tanks and

307
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: logistics to win the war of getting this heffing form.

308
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 2: And I thought, there you are trying to deal with

309
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 2: the fellas, and I salute you. You scrambling parents everywhere.

310
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 2: It's not easy, you know.

311
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, God dang it.

312
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 3: So I mentioned the other day about trying to get

313
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 3: my son on the Hot Lunch. You finally want to

314
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 3: eat the hot lunch. And it's a different website that

315
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 3: uses a different log in that has a different password,

316
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 3: that is.

317
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 2: A it has a different log in, because you can't

318
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 2: have the Russians stealing the secrets of.

319
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: Our fish stack. But I'm surprised, no what he's made

320
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: the argument, maybe I'll do this because maybe it would

321
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: help that this has got to be especially tough on

322
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: people with lesser education and lesser resources, people that don't

323
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: have iPads and iPhones and college degrees in everything like that.

324
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: How are they supposed to navigate this crap.

325
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 3: To take advantage of, you know, your various things that

326
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 3: you can do in the modern world. You gotta throw

327
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 3: in people of color. If you don't, you're a fool.

328
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 3: Whatever it would take to try to streamline this stuff.

329
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 2: Our native peoples have been shown to have seventy eight

330
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,240
Speaker 2: percent more trouble finding their password yes than white people.

331
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: Throw that nobody will check it. Nobody checks any of

332
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: this crap. I love that angle.

333
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 3: I'm gonna start working that angle to see if I

334
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 3: can get things fixed.

335
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: Armstrong and get you you you, what the hell are

336
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 1: you talking about? Well, pressure, this is the Armstrong and

337
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: Getty Show, the Armstrong and Getty Show. What.

338
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I've got a pretty good immune system

339
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 3: for stuff like normal diseases that go around. I usually

340
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 3: don't get them. What would it be like if I

341
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 3: ate better? I might be impenetrable.

342
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: You could be well, you're you're just at the tail

343
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 2: and raising little kids. Now you have teenagers, so you

344
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 2: have been enrolled in the marine boot camp right of

345
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 2: immune systems raising children. So I've got a number of

346
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 2: people in my orbit who take nothing when they get

347
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,760
Speaker 2: a cold. They don't they believe it's all bs, and

348
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 2: they don't take anything. I take a few things.

349
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 3: Do you take anything? Do you think anything works? Katie's

350
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 3: nodding her head. We'll start with you. I take theraflu.

351
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,560
Speaker 3: You take theraflu. I have found that to work. I

352
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 3: don't care if it's PLACEBIA. If I suffer from PLACEBIA,

353
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 3: doesn't matter to me. As long as I feel better.

354
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 3: I don't need anybody to tell me it doesn't. Actually,

355
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 3: I don't care. I feel better. Do you take anything

356
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 3: like tile and all or I view profen. At one

357
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 3: point I was down with the zinc.

358
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I couldn't figure out what form, and I

359
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: just kind of remember when nobody got a cold during COVID. Yeah,

360
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: I've fallen out of I don't remember what to do anymore.

361
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 3: I got a bottle of uh, it's you know something

362
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 3: or other they say take when a cold first you

363
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,719
Speaker 3: first start to get the symptoms of a cold, and

364
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 3: it's zinc and a couple other things. And I don't

365
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 3: know if they do anything, but I feel like if

366
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 3: I take that, if I do get the cold, it's

367
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 3: much milder.

368
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: Again, might be in my head, I don't care. I

369
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: also use zycham, yeah, which is awesome. I've heard people

370
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: recommend sinuses and stuff. Yeah. Yeah.

371
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 2: I tend not to trust my own experience because the

372
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: data set isn't big enough.

373
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: But I don't I don't know.

374
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 2: I have no information that there's anything wrong with taking

375
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 2: that stuff, and what the hell it worst is harmless?

376
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 2: But you're not a take nothing guy or no, I am,

377
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 2: pretty much, although I'm thinking now that you mentioned it,

378
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 2: maybe I'll take some tile and all or something. I

379
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,680
Speaker 2: actually my symptoms aren't that bad other than just overwhelming

380
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 2: fatigue at this point.

381
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 5: Now, do you guys take niq will And that's what

382
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 5: I do, and I go to sleep afraid of it.

383
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 1: You're afraid of night time niquil? Yeah, Well, with our hours,

384
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: I don't.

385
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 4: If I wake up groggy or oversleep, that's not good.

386
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:55,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't.

387
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 3: Alcoholics are not supposed to take NyQuil because it's basically

388
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 3: taken a shot alcohol to help sleep.

389
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't for the reason Katie cided. I just

390
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 2: it's hard enough to get up in the morning and

391
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 2: be semi sharp. Yeah, listeners of the first hour of

392
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,919
Speaker 2: the radio showing not very sharp.

393
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: One thing with giving your kids stuff, you kind of

394
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 3: have a better gauge of whether it's actually doing anything

395
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 3: or not, especially when they're little. They're too young to

396
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 3: like and uh, most stuff I don't think does much.

397
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: All right? Oh yeah, absolutely.

398
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 2: Remember when that one thing that was ubiquitous on the

399
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 2: still it drug store shelves of America.

400
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 3: It's still in every freaking drug I buy, Every cold

401
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 3: medicine you buy still has that fenel en run or

402
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 3: whatever it's called in it. And the government announced it

403
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 3: does nothing. We're completely different. The FDA said it does

404
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 3: zero zero, it's a nothing and it's an iri cold medicine.

405
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: Still, you're wasting your time on the fenel helamelo melo

406
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: till right, yes, hell, well, how do you say it? Katie?

407
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 3: Looking at it? But so it's on yours. What are

408
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 3: you looking at right there?

409
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 1: This is DayQuil. When I had this flu last.

410
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,399
Speaker 4: Time around, I took everything under the sun that I

411
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 4: could get my hands on because I was trying to

412
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 4: get rid of that crap.

413
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's in here too. Every cold medicine in every

414
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 1: aisle of every store that sells cold medicine has drugs

415
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: full of that, and the government announced it doesn't do anything.

416
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 1: I just think that's weird, just counting on that people

417
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 1: don't know.

418
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 2: It's because it's funny to say, oh, yeah, yeah, well,

419
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 2: the percentage of people you know. Honestly, we've posed this

420
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 2: question in many contexts in recent days and through the years.

421
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 2: What percentage of Americans? One of us will ask the

422
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 2: other do you think knows that anything story or or anything? Yeah,

423
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 2: And in this case, what percentage do you think could

424
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 2: tell you? Oh, yeah, Fennel elephant here is it's it

425
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 2: was worthless. I remember that news story be a very

426
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 2: very small number.

427
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: I suppose you're right. Okay, this says Feda left freen

428
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: FENI la Freene. That's the way he sat.

429
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 2: Okay, Fennel left Frene fenelefrine, I like, your guys, is

430
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 2: better than elephant.

431
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: Well, since it doesn't do anything, I'll call whatever I

432
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: want to call it. It's a bunch of wowches, hilarious.

433
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 1: What you got too much blood in your body is

434
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: your problem?

435
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 4: Right?

436
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 1: You got to bleed your feet. You don't have the

437
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: uh stomach to actually slice open your own feet. Isn't

438
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:41,360
Speaker 1: that what killed George Washington? You? Yeah, well it hastened

439
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 1: his death certainly. Yeah, I don't know why.

440
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 2: Well, I'm a bit of a history freak and a

441
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 2: bit of a medical history hobbyist and a great admirer

442
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 2: of George Washington. That was I listened with rapt attention

443
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 2: and like committed it all the memory there in his

444
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 2: bedroom where he died, as you're there by his bedside,

445
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 2: probably a recreation. But and they explained that, yeah, he

446
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 2: had what did they think he had? I can't remember

447
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 2: the disease. I didn't memorize it that effectively, obviously, But

448
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 2: the doctors in he probably did not have aids uh.

449
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 1: He was an honorable and elderly man.

450
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 2: Anyway, that the doctors in treating him for what was

451
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 2: probably whatever the hell, just kept saying, yeah, we got

452
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 2: to bleed the feet and let out the bad humors,

453
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 2: and he'd like grally a little bit, and they'd think, yeah,

454
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:34,919
Speaker 2: we probably ought to bleed his feet more.

455
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: He died. What if you don't have enough red blood

456
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 1: cells anemia? He probably died. And it was all that

457
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 1: for a throat infection, is what the interwebs said. Too

458
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: much bloody is your problem?

459
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, streptococcal infection or something. He should have taken some

460
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 2: phenahell element, a little bit elephant.

461
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 5: Uh.

462
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 2: So I started out the podcast. I figure I might

463
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 2: as well pay it off. And this is this is

464
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 2: pleasant and delightful. A bread making craze has begun in

465
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 2: my extended family. Oh cool, Yeah, I remember during the

466
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 2: pandemic when people started doing that, and so yeah, grub.

467
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 2: Oddly enough, it began with a relative who has some

468
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 2: sensory issues, Jack, something you know about, and certainly I do,

469
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:27,479
Speaker 2: having raised an autistic daughter. But anyway, a certain homemade

470
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 2: bread seemed to be great, and it happens to be

471
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 2: unfreaking believably delicious. I'm going to keep things vague to

472
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 2: protect the innocent, but say my it was my uncle Morty,

473
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 2: and we would make reference to Morty bread and how

474
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 2: good it was. And Morty when he would come for

475
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 2: a visit would always leave a loaf. And when I

476
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 2: was through with Morty bread, I was very very sad

477
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 2: because it was so good.

478
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: Before I leave work today, Oh god, Jesus boy, you

479
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 1: know Jack? You know what, Katie, I just do you

480
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: want to go off and do our own thing? Could we?

481
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 1: Would you take me? Wouldn't ever? Yeah, Michael, you're higher

482
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: and here you can watch Jack. We're out of here,

483
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:12,600
Speaker 1: you can you guess is going to be like?

484
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 2: And this, this is this happened to me at least

485
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,640
Speaker 2: once in my youth. It was explained to me, Hey,

486
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 2: the band just got a break up. We just we

487
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 2: can't do this and it's too much trouble to do that.

488
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 2: And so we're breaking up. And then a week later here,

489
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 2: yeah they're playing he just got a different dude played

490
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 2: your instrument.

491
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah. Wow, So that's what we're doing

492
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: to Jack right now. Yeah. We I'm really not gonna

493
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: do it radio anymore.

494
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 3: That's like the they break up with you because I

495
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 3: just I just don't think I should be in a

496
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,239
Speaker 3: relationship right now. And then you see them walking down

497
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 3: the street holding hands with somebody. Yeah, next weekend. Oh okay, Oh,

498
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,200
Speaker 3: I'm going into bread making. You guys have fun. Okay,

499
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 3: the bread making, I am that's something I would like

500
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 3: to actually learn how to do one because I love

501
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 3: homemade bread and it just seems like could be a

502
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 3: cool craft.

503
00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 2: And I pronounced, having enjoyed some bread, and then switched

504
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 2: back to the regular stuff.

505
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's just so much better.

506
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 2: And so Judy got a new mixer because our old

507
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,360
Speaker 2: mixer's motor was kind of funky. And so now she's

508
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 2: got this big, like industry looking mixer. And she made

509
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: a couple of loafs of what's known as the mort

510
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 2: He Bred. And my lost student daughter made herself some bread,

511
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 2: although one of her two cats stepped on the bread

512
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: as it was proofing, which I guess means rising or something. Yeah,

513
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 2: And so one of the loaves is robust and very

514
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 2: healthy looking, and the other loaf is really.

515
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: Just excuse me loaf, because I can't ruined it, damn cats.

516
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: The cat stepped on the bread. But you're gonna go

517
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,479
Speaker 1: ahead and make it anyway, doesn't that mean?

518
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 4: Yeah?

519
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you put it in the oven at

520
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,120
Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty degrees for a half an hour

521
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:46,639
Speaker 2: or whatever it is.

522
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: It's fine. I don't know that I want letterbox bread. Yeah,

523
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: this tastes a little like whatever a cat walks through. Well, now,

524
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 1: I will tell you this.

525
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 2: Having baby sat my daughter's cats for three weeks over Christmas,

526
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 2: she does occasionally get ready the bleeper. She doesn't occasionally

527
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 2: refer to their s mittens because they.

528
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: You know, they pooh out, they poo in the box,

529
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: then they walk out of the box. Sure, that's that's see,

530
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 1: that's not a tasty term. Like they dip their taws

531
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: and some paus and some sort of disinfectant on their

532
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: way out. Must clean the palls after one poos you there, No,

533
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: they don't do that. That's a great term.

534
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 3: It is, and discuss we've got cats and Michael there,

535
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 3: I'm going to use that term patting around in mittens

536
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 3: all over your house.

537
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start calling people mittens. This is great, Oh

538
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: my goodness, this is many charming folks. I apologize. I

539
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 1: work at this guy and working with and told me

540
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 1: the other day, but a bunch of mittens around here?

541
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 1: Why do I put up with it?

542
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 4: I know?

543
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: Anyway? Where was I?

544
00:27:58,760 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 2: Oh?

545
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: I was gonna talk out the various things that are

546
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: so far superior in their homemade version, right, but we've

547
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 1: kind of drifted so far away from it. Like I

548
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: brewed beer for a while. My brother brewis beer and

549
00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: it's so good.

550
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 2: He's actually got the cooler with two taps, and anytime

551
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 2: we visit his house he has home brewed beer in

552
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 2: kegs on tap.

553
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 1: Wow, icy cold on his patio. It's ridiculous.

554
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 2: Oh, it's so although if I lived like that, I

555
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 2: would be a flaming alcoholic in three hundred and seventy

556
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 2: five pounds. But if there's a downside, but I'd be

557
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 2: happy and I wouldn't be thinking about my problems, and

558
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 2: people would be more interesting.

559
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: But bread might be at the top of the list.

560
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 1: Beer is close. I say cookies, and I'm a bit

561
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: of a purest, maybe a bit of a pain in

562
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: the ass. I know that's hard to imagine. I will

563
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: not eat store bought cookies. I just I won't because

564
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: the calories and the taste.

565
00:28:59,280 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 5: No.

566
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh, those cookies that I sent you guys, the

567
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:03,880
Speaker 4: picture of o her break that I made.

568
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: They were so I know. Homemade cookie is it's it's

569
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 1: it's just it's like sex. It's so good.

570
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 3: I grew up in Wisconsin with a lot of homemade butter,

571
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 3: and homemade butter is just so much better than what

572
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 3: he did in the store.

573
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: It's like a different thing you for each brother. I

574
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: wouldn't know if you put homemade, and I had forgotten

575
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: how good it was. So this field trip my son

576
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: went on to a couple of years ago, they churn buttered.

577
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 3: They I spent more time churning than the kids did,

578
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 3: but as I was one of the chaperones, but I

579
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 3: turned up the exactly their weedy little arms. I turned

580
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 3: up the butter, and I'd forgotten how good it is.

581
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 3: You put homemade butter on homemade bread and you have

582
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 3: a flip and treat right there.

583
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: That sounds wonderful. I'm guessing.

584
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 4: Oh no, I'm just I'm in the process of trying

585
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 4: to make sour dough bread because that's my favorite oh

586
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 4: of life, and I haven't.

587
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: I haven't gotten it down yet because it's complicated.

588
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 2: But we missed the whole getting a starter going during

589
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,720
Speaker 2: COVID thing I wish we had. But yeah, Jack, I'm

590
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 2: sure there are semi overpriced like electric butter turns you

591
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 2: can get from you know, sharper imagure whatever.

592
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:14,920
Speaker 3: We did it the old timy away with a look

593
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,400
Speaker 3: like the thing you've seen in old timey movies with

594
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 3: a stick in a cylinder with a hole on the top.

595
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: It kind of looks a little sexual. But I mean,

596
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: you're you're doing this thing. Sometimes a cigar is just

597
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 1: a cigar. But yeah, homemade butter, that's that's what you

598
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 1: gotta add. You have homemade bread with homemade butter. Oh wow,

599
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: got to do it. I'm looking at how to make

600
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: homemade butter. It doesn't look that difficult. It's not hard

601
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,560
Speaker 1: at all. I'm going to try it today. Do it, yeah,

602
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: and then report back. Oh so good, Get me a

603
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: tub not that sort of stuff to and sell over

604
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: there at the store. Oh, I know it, I know it.

605
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 5: My mom bakes bread and she's the sweetest woman ever.

606
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 5: But when her yeast doesn't rise, f bombs.

607
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: Stay to the kitchen man In Danger, Danger, Armstrong and

608
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: the Armstrong and Getti Show.

609
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 3: My son was playing the drums at the high school

610
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 3: basketball game, the first time I've watched him do it

611
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 3: at the basketball game, and I hadn't been banned situation drumline.

612
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 3: So it's just all drums. But first time I've been

613
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 3: inside a small high school gym watching a game with

614
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,360
Speaker 3: all that goes on with that in many, many decades.

615
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,680
Speaker 1: It hasn't changed a bit. Really. It was a lot

616
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 1: more people staring at their phones than the last time I.

617
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: Nobody was staring at some piece of equipment in their

618
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: hand back the last time I was in a gym.

619
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: But other than that, it was all the same.

620
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 3: And I wish this weren't true. I know this makes

621
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 3: me a crazy person, but I get just as uncomfortable.

622
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 3: I was just as uncomfortable last night being in that

623
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 3: gym as I was when I was in a high

624
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 3: school myself, and all the dynamics of high school and

625
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 3: everything that goes on with that and everything, and how

626
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 3: much I hated it, and how how it just freaked

627
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 3: me out. I feel exactly the same way now, and

628
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 3: it's just it's it's some sort of PTSD, right, It's

629
00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 3: got to be, because obviously I don't need to know

630
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 3: if the cool group thinks I've got the right shoes

631
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 3: on or anything now.

632
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 2: Right, And your shoes are lovely, by the way, We're

633
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 2: all just commenting on what nice shoes you have.

634
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 1: Whatever the stupid moronic dynamics of high school are you know?

635
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,840
Speaker 1: It's it's absolutely anthropological.

636
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 2: It's at the point that you're really becoming in charge

637
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 2: of keeping your DNA alive. You take in data about

638
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: what's a danger, what's good, what's bad, and it burns

639
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 2: permanent pathways in your head so you don't have to

640
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 2: be reminded of it again just to survive.

641
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, I wouldn't call being in.

642
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 2: The same room with your your first love PTSD good,

643
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 2: But does that bring on a lot of emotion?

644
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 1: That's a good loan, that's that's a pretty good. That's

645
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 1: pretty good. That's per charitable and pretty good. And it's

646
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: so easy. I feel like the spot as I'm sitting

647
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 1: there in the gym, I can say, Okay, there's the

648
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: cool group. They just walked in, look at the like

649
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: the water's part as they walk through, and everybody stared

650
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: hated them a little, didn't you. I don't know. I didn't.

651
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 3: I don't think I hated them. I don't think I

652
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 3: ever hated them. I was scared of them, but I

653
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 3: didn't hate them. Then there's there's the group that wants

654
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 3: to be them but not quite is, and there's the outliers.

655
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 3: They're kind of standing alone over there, and they wish

656
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 3: they could be part of any group.

657
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: And you can. You can just see all the dynamics

658
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: of high school just right there in front of you.

659
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 2: You're freaking everyone out. This is making me really uncomfortable,

660
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 2: which proves your point.

661
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 1: Now's your chance, Jack. You see that cool group, you

662
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: can tell them off. Listen, you think you're so cool. See,

663
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: I don't. I never, I don't. I didn't have that feeling.

664
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: Then I don't have that feeling. Now tell them off

665
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: for what? How dare you be attractive and have good

666
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,440
Speaker 1: personalities and good at something?

667
00:33:58,720 --> 00:33:58,840
Speaker 5: How?

668
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: And screw you? I'm I didn't feel that way them.

669
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: I don't feel that way, and that's healthy, that's right.

670
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 1: You gotta tear them down. Life is a zero some game.

671
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: Their happiness is your unhappiness. Look at your DEI training.

672
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 1: If they have something, it's because they stole it. There's

673
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 1: no such thing as merits. There's a certain amount of

674
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 1: happiness to go around. There was a particular guy and

675
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 1: girl that walked in high school. Guy and girl and

676
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 1: he was he looked like like something from a TV show,

677
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 1: and she was stunning and it was just like the

678
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: attention they got when they came over to the bleachers

679
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: and kind of just sat wherever they wanted. Everybody moved

680
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: out of the way, and it's just something to see.

681
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,440
Speaker 1: What is it with human beings? I don't know, do

682
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 1: bears do the same thing.

683
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 2: I mean, they're sitting there eating their berries or overturning

684
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,959
Speaker 2: trash cans or something. Then a really hot looking bear

685
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,399
Speaker 2: and her big bear mate come along. Oh my god,

686
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,879
Speaker 2: look at them. Yeah, he could be a movie star.

687
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: You and they looked so comfortable and in charge of

688
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: the world, like things could never be better. And then

689
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 1: all the other peop people you could see the angst

690
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: on their face. So not all of them, but certain

691
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 1: groups of people. Is just like you know, looking around

692
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: and trying to how should I walk, how should I sit?

693
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: How should I whatever? You know that goes on when

694
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: you're that age. Just oh my god. I wouldn't go

695
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: through that again for any amount of money. Like observing a.

696
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:22,360
Speaker 2: Band of chimps in the forest lest pooh chucking, thank goodness.

697
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 3: And I don't And one other thing before we got

698
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 3: to get to Katie's headlines, I don't know. My brother

699
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 3: was telling me about how like his daughter is a

700
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,439
Speaker 3: super stud of high school girls basketball player, and he said,

701
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 3: girls basketball is so much better now than it was

702
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 3: like when we were younger.

703
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:38,800
Speaker 1: It's different thing, but so is the boys.

704
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 3: I thought, this boy's high school team, I don't know

705
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 3: if my high school team could score a.

706
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: Basket on these guys.

707
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,959
Speaker 3: Has everything just gotten that much better because of youth

708
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 3: sports or emphasis on sports or something?

709
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, more professionalized. Everything's more professional.

710
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 2: Games are not to be played for fun, there to

711
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 2: be excelled at to game of scholarship.

712
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:57,279
Speaker 1: Maybe that's it.

713
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 3: But it was a completely different level than the last

714
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 3: time I was in a high school gym, which was

715
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,479
Speaker 3: a very very long time. I was in Black and White,

716
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getty
