0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:32.920
<v Speaker 2>been doing these intros lately, but I figure I haven't

0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.440
<v Speaker 2>uploaded an episode in a while, so, you know, I

0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:38.400
<v Speaker 2>thought it would be a good idea to come on

0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:42.680
<v Speaker 2>here and explain why. And the reason is is that

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:45.919

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what's up?

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:23.960
<v Speaker 6>Man?

0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:25.920

<v Speaker 5>This is great? I uh, I love this show. I'm

<v Speaker 5>gonna walk in and listen for a few weeks now,

0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:32.880
<v Speaker 5>it's kill it.

0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, man. I appreciate that. Is there anything sort

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:41.720
<v Speaker 2>of in particular that you wanted to talk about tonight, Alex.

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:47.320
<v Speaker 5>I was hearing you asking about money. Yeah, I'm hoping

0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:48.960
<v Speaker 5>to talk about what money is.

0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Tell me asks what is money?

0:01:53.960 --> 0:02:00.400
<v Speaker 5>It's slavery, Gecko. It's just a form of controlling people.

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a way of controlling people.

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you know, there could be other ways to exchange things.

0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 5>We could exchange kindness or good deeds or art or happiness,

0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:15.480
<v Speaker 5>but we choose money. Stupid.

0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:22.560
<v Speaker 4>If you're asking me, I want.

0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:25.280
<v Speaker 2>To hear more about this, this economy that runs on

0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:28.240
<v Speaker 2>exchanging kindness, I will.

0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:30.800
<v Speaker 5>You know, I wish, I wish I had more experience

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:33.000
<v Speaker 5>with it, you know what I mean? Like I don't

0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:36.960
<v Speaker 5>get it day to day. But I think I think

0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:46.560
<v Speaker 5>instead of valuing cash or valuing purchases, we can value

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 5>how you make people feel. And I think there's ways

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:56.760
<v Speaker 5>to measure that. I think besides just how you talk

0:02:56.840 --> 0:03:01.040
<v Speaker 5>to people or how people react to you good things

0:03:01.040 --> 0:03:01.800
<v Speaker 5>to believe you and.

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 2>You believe that there can be an objective measurement of

0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:11.280
<v Speaker 2>kindness that you can then use to weigh to to

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:15.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, exchange for another thing of equal value. So

0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:19.079
<v Speaker 2>like if I'm a level nine kindness to you, you'll

0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:24.360
<v Speaker 2>give me bread, and bread is worth level nind kindness.

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but even one step more than that, right, It's

0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:31.960
<v Speaker 5>like I won't exchange bread for for your kindness. I

0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.960
<v Speaker 5>want to give you bread or I want to feed

0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:38.240
<v Speaker 5>you because I recognize that you're kind. You know, it's

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:41.840
<v Speaker 5>even being moving beyond just a transactional sort of economy.

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:45.360
<v Speaker 5>We won't have like an exchange there. You know what

0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:45.800
<v Speaker 5>I'm saying.

0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:47.720
<v Speaker 2>It's like, how would you get bread?

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.640
<v Speaker 5>Well, I mean if if I'm giving you the bread, right,

0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:55.400
<v Speaker 5>if you're so kind, you know I'm giving you the bread. Yes,

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 5>I want to live with you. I want to tend

0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 5>to your land, you know. I want to plant your

0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 5>soil or you plow your soil.

0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:06.760
<v Speaker 2>Whatever they But I don't want I don't want everyone

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 2>that I buy bread with. I don't want everyone that

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 2>I buy bread from to live with me. Like if

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:13.120
<v Speaker 2>I went to the grocery store and I went to

0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 2>buy bread and the cash, you're asked to live with me,

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:16.039
<v Speaker 2>I would say.

0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:18.000
<v Speaker 8>No, totally.

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:22.320
<v Speaker 5>I hear you, but you know you wont your kindness

0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:25.599
<v Speaker 5>or your your your positive energy won't match up with

0:04:25.680 --> 0:04:29.160
<v Speaker 5>those people you don't want to share those uh those

0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:31.200
<v Speaker 5>energies with, or that your personal space with.

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:33.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, I would say no, even if he was

0:04:33.600 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 2>really really nice, I would still not lesto wouldn't let

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 2>him live with me.

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:39.560
<v Speaker 5>Oh, I see what you're saying. You may not do

0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:42.360
<v Speaker 5>good in this economy if you're not you know, if

0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:46.440
<v Speaker 5>you're not trying to might not be Actually that brings.

0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Up a good wan What what?

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:48.000
<v Speaker 6>What?

0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:51.719
<v Speaker 2>How does someone survive in this economy if they're an asshole? What?

0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 9>What do they do?

0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 2>What are they to do?

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:56.400
<v Speaker 5>That's what's It's not going to be good for them.

0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:58.360
<v Speaker 5>You know, they're going to be pushed to the curve.

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 2>You know what if they have what a they have skills?

0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:03.200
<v Speaker 2>What if like all, what if it turns out that

0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 2>everyone who is has the skill of creating bread is

0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:10.480
<v Speaker 2>an asshole? What are we going to do?

0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 5>My theory is kind of a breaking down here. There

0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.520
<v Speaker 5>might be some sort of bartering that has to just

0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:22.200
<v Speaker 5>take place. But maybe maybe it's not just positive things.

0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:24.720
<v Speaker 5>Maybe there's there's other things that you were just a

0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:29.400
<v Speaker 5>really interesting development that you raise here, It won't necessarily

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:32.279
<v Speaker 5>be positive things that that go good. You know, we

0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:35.320
<v Speaker 5>have to fight, we have to kill animals. You know

0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:38.320
<v Speaker 5>that's not positive energy necessarily. Maybe we don't have to

0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:40.119
<v Speaker 5>kill animal, but you know what I'm saying, there's certain

0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:46.200
<v Speaker 5>things in our lives that they're not all uh influences

0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:48.960
<v Speaker 5>that that are for the better good. You know, someone

0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:49.440
<v Speaker 5>has to.

0:05:49.400 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Get hurt, so you I want to go back to

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:56.479
<v Speaker 2>the bread guy living with me. So I ask a

0:05:56.520 --> 0:06:00.200
<v Speaker 2>guy for bread and he says yes, but he has

0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:02.120
<v Speaker 2>to be able to live with me. But that's an

0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:06.599
<v Speaker 2>exchange of physical value because I'm he's giving me bread

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:10.000
<v Speaker 2>and exchange for my place. But then how do I

0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 2>get the place that to build it myself?

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:15.440
<v Speaker 5>Well, no, somebody who want to build it for you,

0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:19.040
<v Speaker 5>But you're also gonna want. You're gonna want because if

0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:21.280
<v Speaker 5>they want to be around you, but you are gonna

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:23.400
<v Speaker 5>want to be around them, or you're gonna want those

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 5>people that build houses to be around you.

0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:27.000
<v Speaker 8>You know, what if I.

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:28.800
<v Speaker 2>Don't what if I don't want to be well, what

0:06:28.839 --> 0:06:30.120
<v Speaker 2>if I don't want to be around the guy that

0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:31.800
<v Speaker 2>builds houses? What if I think he's kind of great?

0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:37.800
<v Speaker 5>Well, I mean, you know there's gonna be a broad spectrum,

0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:40.840
<v Speaker 5>you know, a panoply of different people that can build

0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.240
<v Speaker 5>houses for you, just like you know, like you go

0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 5>to a supermarket.

0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 2>So I have to pick one of them to be

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:47.440
<v Speaker 2>friends with.

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:50.040
<v Speaker 5>You got to get a carpenter, you know, like if

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:52.040
<v Speaker 5>you're not gonna get a carpenter, if you're gonna if

0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.680
<v Speaker 5>you think every single carpenter is an asshole, that you're

0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 5>not gonna not gonna be with me in that house.

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:57.880
<v Speaker 2>No, but that's the but that's the thing here. It

0:06:57.880 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 2>doesn't matter if they're an asshole. I don't want to

0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:01.200
<v Speaker 2>be I don't want to have to be friends with

0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:04.680
<v Speaker 2>the carpenter just because he I would rather I would

0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:06.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm you know what, I I got to reject this idea.

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:09.279
<v Speaker 2>I would rather give the carpenter money than be friends

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 2>with him. I think that would be too much kind

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:17.720
<v Speaker 2>I actually being being kind to that many people all

0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:19.360
<v Speaker 2>the time to get what you want.

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:21.960
<v Speaker 8>I don't.

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:24.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't like that idea. I think I think that

0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:25.680
<v Speaker 2>would be exhausting.

0:07:26.320 --> 0:07:29.160
<v Speaker 5>There's so much anger and unhappiness right now. Though, you know,

0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:31.760
<v Speaker 5>I want to replace with something that's that's better than that.

0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 2>I think. I think, look, you know what I think

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:40.240
<v Speaker 2>you should you if you want this movement to actualize,

0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:41.600
<v Speaker 2>I think you need to start at yourself.

0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 5>That's a lot of there's a lot of responsibility.

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:49.560
<v Speaker 2>That's what I was saying.

0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:50.560
<v Speaker 4>It's too much work.

0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:54.120
<v Speaker 5>I need I need to get more than just me.

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.400
<v Speaker 5>You know what I'm saying. I need to get a group.

0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:58.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, it starts with you, Alex.

0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:06.040

<v Speaker 13>your ass just total idiots. But you know, I get it, man,

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.319
<v Speaker 13>people have their problems, you know, they want to be heard,

0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:21.360
<v Speaker 13>But you got to be a douche about it.

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.560
<v Speaker 2>What what's the world that way? Tell me what this

0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:28.040
<v Speaker 2>call center? Are the people being decks?

0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:28.280
<v Speaker 8>Are they?

0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Like? Are you referring to the people you work with

0:09:30.080 --> 0:09:32.599
<v Speaker 2>or the people that you're calling or the most.

0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:35.520
<v Speaker 13>Will I don't do outbound calls people calling to me

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 13>before my current job. I'm kind of a serial call

0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:41.080
<v Speaker 13>center worker.

0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:42.760
<v Speaker 8>I guess you would say I did.

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:46.679
<v Speaker 13>Like roadside assistants and people calling and they're like their

0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:48.480
<v Speaker 13>cars are all fucked up and they're straight on the

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.920
<v Speaker 13>side of the road. Customers out way they call it

0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 13>tow truck drivers, which absolutely suck. But now I deal

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:59.520
<v Speaker 13>with people's money and nobody likes their money being played with.

0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.640
<v Speaker 2>You know, No, yeah, oh no, that I mean that's

0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:05.199
<v Speaker 2>a tough gig, right there. You having people call you're

0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.360
<v Speaker 2>the first line of defense. When people are pissed off

0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:08.800
<v Speaker 2>and they need something, they call you.

0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:12.960
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, it's just hard sometimes in a let it carry

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:14.040
<v Speaker 13>over in your personal life.

0:10:15.760 --> 0:10:17.920
<v Speaker 2>Really, Like, do you ever do you ever feel bad

0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:21.160
<v Speaker 2>about yourself from these people? Because I feel like I

0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.920
<v Speaker 2>feel like the fact that they are because they're not like,

0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:28.120
<v Speaker 2>what's your name, Jonathan, because they're not calling like, Hey,

0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.199
<v Speaker 2>I just wanted to call you Jonathan, because I want

0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:33.000
<v Speaker 2>you to know that I think you specifically, you know,

0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:35.400
<v Speaker 2>suck and uh, you know, I hate you. They're calling

0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:37.120
<v Speaker 2>because it's something that has nothing to do with you,

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.679
<v Speaker 2>but they're they're using you as the lightning rod to

0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:41.959
<v Speaker 2>absorb their their frustration.

0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:44.600
<v Speaker 12>Indeed they do.

0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:50.880
<v Speaker 13>But way do people treat people? It's a huge thing

0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:52.960
<v Speaker 13>in this world with everything else that's going on in

0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:54.200
<v Speaker 13>the country, But.

0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:57.840
<v Speaker 14>You know, treat others how you want to be treated?

0:10:58.120 --> 0:10:58.679
<v Speaker 12>That simple?

0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:00.480
<v Speaker 8>Don't be a do tell?

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:00.959
<v Speaker 7>Uh?

0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, what's the worst? What's what's the worst? It

0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:04.800
<v Speaker 2>gets with these people?

0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:10.120
<v Speaker 13>Well, either they cussing you out, threatening to come find you,

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:13.959
<v Speaker 13>burn your house down. It's like someone like a call

0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:16.160
<v Speaker 13>of duty lobby. So I maybe know how to dude,

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.240
<v Speaker 13>tell me you find me and fuck my mom?

0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:20.160
<v Speaker 2>But did he did he do it?

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:21.160
<v Speaker 15>No?

0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:24.959
<v Speaker 2>See, that's the thing these people, I mean, I I

0:11:25.160 --> 0:11:27.400
<v Speaker 2>I feel like you got nothing to worry about. These

0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:30.120
<v Speaker 2>people are you know, empty threats. But why did why

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:31.880
<v Speaker 2>why did this guy tell you that he was going

0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:34.559
<v Speaker 2>to go to your house and fuck your mom.

0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:37.640
<v Speaker 13>Well, basically, I gave him an answer he didn't want

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.960
<v Speaker 13>to hear, and I kept on repeating the same thing

0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:45.680
<v Speaker 13>because he wouldn't understand. So he got all mad and

0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 13>then he threatened to suck my mom and I did

0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:51.680
<v Speaker 13>not take that personally. My mom was a very beautiful woman.

0:11:53.200 --> 0:12:01.280
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm. What's what I have a question for you, John?

0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Did you said, Jonathan?

0:12:02.480 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 4>John?

0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:04.680
<v Speaker 9>Either one?

0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:05.559
<v Speaker 5>I've been called worse?

0:12:06.720 --> 0:12:10.120
<v Speaker 2>I can I so I've heard John? What's your bad habit?

0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:12.520
<v Speaker 12>What's my bad habit?

0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:18.600
<v Speaker 14>Sporting lines and fucking dimes? My friend?

0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Really?

0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:22.960
<v Speaker 13>Nah, I kicked that ship back in like three years ago.

0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:24.640
<v Speaker 4>Dog, Do you.

0:12:24.600 --> 0:12:28.160
<v Speaker 2>Feel like being high on cocaine would help you deal

0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:32.360
<v Speaker 2>with the aggression that you receive from the call center?

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:35.080
<v Speaker 2>Or do you feel like it would make you, in

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:37.400
<v Speaker 2>turn more aggressive when you have to put on your

0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.520
<v Speaker 2>sort of customer service you know chill vibes?

0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:46.160
<v Speaker 13>Well, man, I did deck collections before, the same kind

0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:48.079
<v Speaker 13>of call center jig. But I was doing a lot

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.200
<v Speaker 13>of blow at the time, and it made me great

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:50.480
<v Speaker 13>at it.

0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:54.439
<v Speaker 2>Really to why why? Why? Why do you? Why did it?

0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Why do you think cocaine made you better at customer service.

0:12:57.840 --> 0:12:59.200
<v Speaker 12>Have you ever seen Wolf of Wall Street?

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:01.400
<v Speaker 2>I have, I sat a while ago.

0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 12>Dude, I was heart out Jordan Belford than that motherfucker.

0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:12.600
<v Speaker 2>See this is tough, right because I feel like with drugs,

0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 2>the trajectory of it or whatever is, you know, it

0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:21.600
<v Speaker 2>bleeds into these other parts of your life. And you're like,

0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I can't show up at work because I'm high all

0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:27.120
<v Speaker 2>the time. I can't function. But how do you kick

0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:31.240
<v Speaker 2>a drug that helps you function better? That must be

0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 2>different because you don't hit rock bottom, you could your

0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:35.800
<v Speaker 2>life it works for you.

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 13>Well, that's a very good question, and I'm glad you

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:43.679
<v Speaker 13>asked that. Basically, it triggers a certain part of your

0:13:43.679 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 13>brain that makes you feel a sense of accomplishment, like

0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:50.280
<v Speaker 13>cocaine for example. Yes, it gives you a sense of accomplishments,

0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.559
<v Speaker 13>like basically, so you do something really good and you

0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:58.280
<v Speaker 13>feel proud of yourself. It's instantly like that. However, it's

0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:01.280
<v Speaker 13>a very difficult thing to come off of. Now myself,

0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:05.319
<v Speaker 13>I'm just not doing it and it was very very hard,

0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:11.960
<v Speaker 13>Like I got sweats, paranoia, crazy shit. But it just

0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:14.840
<v Speaker 13>takes passion to really want to get help, and some

0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 13>people don't really realize that.

0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:18.880
<v Speaker 2>M how long have you been sober for?

0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:20.760
<v Speaker 15>Uh?

0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:21.600
<v Speaker 14>Three years now?

0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:27.160
<v Speaker 2>Fuck? Yeah, that's awesome. Do you ever like, are you

0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:30.200
<v Speaker 2>ever just like someone's fucking chewing you out and you

0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 2>go you hide inside of a cocaine fantasy in your brain.

0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:41.320
<v Speaker 13>Sometimes and then sometimes whenever my friends have it, I

0:14:41.360 --> 0:14:44.840
<v Speaker 13>just get discut feeling. I call it the Lizard brand

0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:48.240
<v Speaker 13>where all your primal instincts just take over and just

0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:49.920
<v Speaker 13>want to go full Tony Montana on that.

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, no, I feel you on the Lizard brand.

0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:56.080
<v Speaker 14>Oh yeah, we get go brand.

0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:01.040
<v Speaker 2>Well, Jonathan Matt, I'm happy to hear that things have

0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:03.160
<v Speaker 2>been going well for you. I'm happy to hear you've

0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.120
<v Speaker 2>been able to kick it and stay strong. Real quick,

<v Speaker 2>before we go, I want to end on a good

0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:11.600
<v Speaker 2>note here, tell me about the two percent for people

0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:16.800
<v Speaker 2>on twitch. Jonathan was telling us about how ninety eight

0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:19.640
<v Speaker 2>Jonathan works at a call center. He said, ninety eight

0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 2>percent of people interacts with our huge douchebags. But I

0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:25.760
<v Speaker 2>want to ask you about the two percent that aren't.

0:15:27.120 --> 0:15:27.480
<v Speaker 8>Well.

0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:31.000
<v Speaker 13>Most of them are either younger people or people that

0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:34.280
<v Speaker 13>actually need their well that I can actually help them

0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:37.160
<v Speaker 13>out with stuff because I work for a bank, but

0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:40.880
<v Speaker 13>I do like check broud. So people get their checklix

0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:46.920
<v Speaker 13>stolen or their check stolen whatever else, and like if

0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:48.920

<v Speaker 13>They're like, oh sweet, thanks man, or like they get

0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:55.920
<v Speaker 13>an answer they don't like, they don't like it. But

0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.840
<v Speaker 13>it's very rare that we get good calls, and most

0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 13>calls are based off surveys. For surveys ain't good. Our

0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:05.360
<v Speaker 13>supervisors but chet us all day.

0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:09.600

0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:41.359
<v Speaker 2>to be in the situation where this story is being

<v Speaker 2>on the other on that other call, I saw you

0:18:50.080 --> 0:18:52.280
<v Speaker 2>were you were getting nervous, and I had I had

0:18:52.359 --> 0:18:52.880
<v Speaker 2>to check out.

0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:57.880
<v Speaker 19>The other call was getting into some pretty uh you know.

0:18:58.320 --> 0:18:59.800
<v Speaker 3>Polarizing race.

0:19:00.920 --> 0:19:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, and you know, we're we're.

0:19:02.920 --> 0:19:05.359
<v Speaker 19>Trying to have fun, We're trying to learn, we're trying

0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:09.840
<v Speaker 19>to grow understandable, you know, and you know we're just

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:15.080
<v Speaker 19>we're going down a path that yes, you know that

0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:17.399
<v Speaker 19>could have ruined the whole rest of the stream, you know,

0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:20.439
<v Speaker 19>But no, I'm not concerned. You know, people know that

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:23.240
<v Speaker 19>I'm just here as a guest and I'm not their lawyer,

0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:26.439
<v Speaker 19>and you know, we're just we're having fun, and you know,

0:19:26.480 --> 0:19:30.399
<v Speaker 19>people can use their own judgment on your Tom.

0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:33.040
<v Speaker 7>Hey, Tom, I think it would be cool if he

0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:35.439
<v Speaker 7>was like part of the green screen, like if you

0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:38.040
<v Speaker 7>could give him like a body, like he's just in

0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:40.840
<v Speaker 7>a little like buck on the stream.

0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.679
<v Speaker 20>Oh, but you could have put him in the green screen.

0:19:44.640 --> 0:19:46.879
<v Speaker 2>No, I actually, I actually you know what, Cat, I

0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:49.760
<v Speaker 2>thought the exact same thing. Is like when I called Tom,

0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:51.159
<v Speaker 2>like right before I called the shop, I saw he

0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:52.840
<v Speaker 2>was in front of his green screen. I'm like, ah, fuck,

0:19:52.840 --> 0:19:55.720
<v Speaker 2>we should have done like a thing. But maybe maybe

0:19:55.760 --> 0:19:57.480
<v Speaker 2>next time, I'll you know, he and I will be

0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:03.600
<v Speaker 2>floating through space and everything. But anyway, Kat tell us,

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean you said you don't know where to start,

0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:08.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, and look, start anywhere, you know, it doesn't

0:20:08.600 --> 0:20:10.000
<v Speaker 2>doesn't really matter where you start.

0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:16.840
<v Speaker 7>Okay, Well, I guess one time I got pulled over,

0:20:18.320 --> 0:20:22.040
<v Speaker 7>and this was when I was like twenty, I admitted

0:20:22.160 --> 0:20:24.480
<v Speaker 7>to having a beer and the cop was just like

0:20:24.520 --> 0:20:30.119
<v Speaker 7>a really big dick and I was driving fast. But

0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:32.399
<v Speaker 7>you know, I was like leaving work and I was

0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:36.360
<v Speaker 7>behind like you know, other people I worked with and

0:20:36.480 --> 0:20:41.200
<v Speaker 7>like it was like, you know, three am whatever, we're

0:20:41.200 --> 0:20:43.600
<v Speaker 7>all just driving and cop pulled me up. So I

0:20:43.640 --> 0:20:47.960
<v Speaker 7>was like, yeah, I had a beer because he said

0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:50.879
<v Speaker 7>he smelled it. He probably didn't smell anything on my bread's.

0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:52.560
<v Speaker 2>You had one beer?

0:20:53.600 --> 0:20:57.680
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, okay yeah, and then so he was like, oh,

0:20:57.720 --> 0:21:01.800
<v Speaker 7>well that's illegal because you're underage, and yeah, so he

0:21:01.920 --> 0:21:04.520
<v Speaker 7>ended up I ended up going to jail that night

0:21:04.680 --> 0:21:08.760
<v Speaker 7>for like eight hours, and they took my breastelizer, which

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:10.879
<v Speaker 7>ended up being zero, but I still had to go

0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:16.800
<v Speaker 7>through like whatever whatever class you admit it two months

0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:17.320
<v Speaker 7>or whatever.

0:21:18.040 --> 0:21:22.800
<v Speaker 19>Kat you know, had you got pulled over and said officer,

0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.639
<v Speaker 19>I'm not talking about my day, probably would have just

0:21:25.680 --> 0:21:26.720
<v Speaker 19>got a speeding ticket.

0:21:27.640 --> 0:21:28.040
<v Speaker 2>You know what.

0:21:28.200 --> 0:21:30.199
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, you're so right, And I wish I would have

0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:32.600
<v Speaker 7>known that, but I was just I was young, and

0:21:32.600 --> 0:21:34.480
<v Speaker 7>no one ever tells you these things.

0:21:34.560 --> 0:21:36.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they intimidate, you know, it's intimidating.

0:21:37.160 --> 0:21:40.040
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, you never you never want to like just tell

<v Speaker 7>He's probably racist also, so it's not good.

0:22:24.960 --> 0:22:25.400
<v Speaker 16>Yeah.

0:22:25.440 --> 0:22:28.840
<v Speaker 7>And I also I also just admittingly, I did have

0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:31.159
<v Speaker 7>like a little bit of heroin on me, like in

0:22:31.200 --> 0:22:32.719
<v Speaker 7>my underwear, so I had to hide that.

0:22:40.119 --> 0:22:42.040
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like you got off easy now.

0:22:44.359 --> 0:22:48.440
<v Speaker 7>No one ever caught me for that, And you know what, Yeah,

0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:50.960

<v Speaker 2>So they sent you, What did you do? What can

0:22:54.560 --> 0:22:56.679
<v Speaker 2>I What did you do with the heroin when they

0:22:56.760 --> 0:22:57.919
<v Speaker 2>sent you to jail? How did you?

0:22:58.000 --> 0:22:58.080
<v Speaker 7>Like?

0:22:58.320 --> 0:22:58.760
<v Speaker 8>Okay? List?

0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:02.040
<v Speaker 7>Okay, So it was in my pocket when they put

0:23:02.080 --> 0:23:05.199
<v Speaker 7>me in the car, and so what I had to

0:23:05.200 --> 0:23:08.080
<v Speaker 7>do was like while they were searching my car because

0:23:08.080 --> 0:23:10.879
<v Speaker 7>they ended up finding weed in me, like in my

0:23:10.960 --> 0:23:13.200
<v Speaker 7>car too, because they were like, oh, well, I'm gonna

0:23:13.200 --> 0:23:16.520
<v Speaker 7>search your car now, so they did that. So I

0:23:16.560 --> 0:23:18.280
<v Speaker 7>was like, okay, well, yeah, I do have weed in

0:23:18.320 --> 0:23:22.240
<v Speaker 7>there whatever, which you know, since they just like, okay

0:23:22.280 --> 0:23:23.360
<v Speaker 7>that that's been taken.

0:23:23.160 --> 0:23:26.200
<v Speaker 11>Off my record because of updated wheedleles.

0:23:26.280 --> 0:23:31.040
<v Speaker 7>But anyways, yeah, yeah, So it was in my pocket

0:23:31.160 --> 0:23:34.159
<v Speaker 7>and I'm sitting in the back of the car. I

0:23:34.200 --> 0:23:37.560
<v Speaker 7>have to finesse my you know, handcuffed hands behind me

0:23:38.520 --> 0:23:41.280
<v Speaker 7>into my pocket where I dig around find it.

0:23:41.280 --> 0:23:42.040
<v Speaker 6>It's like in a.

0:23:41.920 --> 0:23:43.600
<v Speaker 11>Little wrap up piece of oil.

0:23:44.359 --> 0:23:48.199
<v Speaker 7>And then I moved that into my like into my jeans.

0:23:48.240 --> 0:23:50.920
<v Speaker 7>I was wearing skinny jeans, so they were really tight,

0:23:51.040 --> 0:23:54.119
<v Speaker 7>so I could just like, you know, it was it

0:23:54.200 --> 0:23:56.240
<v Speaker 7>was not gonna go anywhere, So it was in my

0:23:56.480 --> 0:23:57.920
<v Speaker 7>like in between.

0:23:57.600 --> 0:23:59.880
<v Speaker 18>My thigh and my pants.

0:24:00.119 --> 0:24:02.600
<v Speaker 11>So yeah, it was in there.

0:24:03.160 --> 0:24:05.800
<v Speaker 7>And then it was even even weirder because I had

0:24:05.840 --> 0:24:08.760
<v Speaker 7>to use the bathroom like when I got to the station,

0:24:09.600 --> 0:24:12.080
<v Speaker 7>and they have to supervise you like when you do that,

0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:15.800
<v Speaker 7>so I had to be like so careful. I like

0:24:15.880 --> 0:24:19.879
<v Speaker 7>made eye contact with the cops, you know, and just

0:24:19.920 --> 0:24:22.440
<v Speaker 7>like you know, just like trying to use the bathroom,

0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:23.240
<v Speaker 7>just being.

0:24:23.119 --> 0:24:24.040
<v Speaker 11>Awkward about it.

0:24:24.720 --> 0:24:27.320
<v Speaker 7>But yeah, luckily it didn't fall out or anything. So

0:24:27.320 --> 0:24:29.480
<v Speaker 7>so yeah, yeah, I got away with.

0:24:31.640 --> 0:24:33.879
<v Speaker 2>Bringing heroin into into jail.

0:24:35.280 --> 0:24:40.159
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, which you know, I ended up.

0:24:41.160 --> 0:24:42.760
<v Speaker 9>I got out of jail, so.

0:24:45.040 --> 0:24:48.159
<v Speaker 2>Not that I can do it, but you got you

0:24:48.240 --> 0:24:50.800
<v Speaker 2>got off very easy. That that that was. That was

0:24:50.920 --> 0:24:52.240
<v Speaker 2>quite a plot twist here.

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:56.840
<v Speaker 7>Well, no, it was kind of. It was.

0:24:56.880 --> 0:24:57.960
<v Speaker 20>It was a little annoying.

0:24:58.280 --> 0:24:59.840
<v Speaker 11>Honestly, I don't I wouldn't say it was.

0:25:01.119 --> 0:25:02.240
<v Speaker 9>It took a lot of.

0:25:02.119 --> 0:25:03.919
<v Speaker 7>You know, time out of my life.

0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh, taken way more.

0:25:07.200 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 7>Okay, listen, listen. The lawyer I had, the lawyer you

0:25:10.320 --> 0:25:12.880
<v Speaker 7>get for court really matters. The lawyer I.

0:25:12.880 --> 0:25:14.240
<v Speaker 11>Had was a piece of shit.

0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:19.359
<v Speaker 7>He was a grubby ass, old, old fucking fuck and

0:25:19.880 --> 0:25:22.520
<v Speaker 7>he just he did not handle my case very well,

0:25:22.760 --> 0:25:24.879
<v Speaker 7>and I'm upset about it. He ended up, you know

0:25:24.920 --> 0:25:25.800
<v Speaker 7>what happened to him.

0:25:26.280 --> 0:25:27.040
<v Speaker 18>He ended up.

0:25:27.200 --> 0:25:29.240
<v Speaker 7>So he was like a guy my dad knew. He

0:25:29.359 --> 0:25:33.280

<v Speaker 11>Very great people.

0:25:35.000 --> 0:25:38.439
<v Speaker 7>But yeah, so it turns out this guy isn't a

0:25:38.520 --> 0:25:41.639
<v Speaker 7>lawyer anymore. He's on the run because he lost the

0:25:41.760 --> 0:25:45.760
<v Speaker 7>case to some guy, and that guy started making threats

0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:46.160
<v Speaker 7>to him.

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:47.679
<v Speaker 11>So now he's out of the office.

0:25:48.160 --> 0:25:50.280

<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Why why? Why was he so bad? What you

0:26:00.320 --> 0:26:00.920
<v Speaker 2>like about him?

0:26:01.320 --> 0:26:04.359
<v Speaker 7>I'm sure? Well, what I didn't like about him is like,

0:26:04.480 --> 0:26:08.760
<v Speaker 7>you know, he's like he just didn't fight that hard.

0:26:08.800 --> 0:26:12.119
<v Speaker 7>He didn't. He could have been like, oh, well, you

0:26:12.160 --> 0:26:16.439
<v Speaker 7>can't prove that she was drinking because my rest was

0:26:16.440 --> 0:26:18.760
<v Speaker 7>a zero. They couldn't have proved it anyway.

0:26:19.760 --> 0:26:22.640
<v Speaker 19>Yes, they could have proved it, you know why because

0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:26.800
<v Speaker 19>they Okay, I'm going to put the officer on the stand.

0:26:27.000 --> 0:26:28.720
<v Speaker 7>Just because I say it doesn't mean I did it.

0:26:30.840 --> 0:26:33.920
<v Speaker 19>I mean, that's pretty tough to uh, I'm going to

0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:35.800
<v Speaker 19>put the officer on the stand in front of dry

0:26:35.960 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 19>When you go, mister officer, what did miss cat tell

0:26:39.160 --> 0:26:41.200
<v Speaker 19>you when she was in the back of the police car.

0:26:42.040 --> 0:26:45.000
<v Speaker 3>She told me that she'd been drinking. Are you sure

0:26:45.040 --> 0:26:49.520
<v Speaker 3>that's what she said? Yes? Okay, miss Cat? Did you

0:26:49.560 --> 0:26:52.120
<v Speaker 3>tell the officer you've been drinking? Yes?

0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:55.680
<v Speaker 7>Okay, Well, so what was her brustolizer?

0:26:56.359 --> 0:26:58.640
<v Speaker 9>What was objection?

0:26:59.440 --> 0:27:02.639
<v Speaker 19>By the time you take a breath of objection irrelevant.

0:27:05.320 --> 0:27:07.960
<v Speaker 19>By the time you take a breathalyzer, you your one

0:27:08.040 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 19>drink has been processed, but you're an underage drinker. It's

0:27:11.560 --> 0:27:13.000
<v Speaker 19>not even allowed under the wall.

0:27:14.720 --> 0:27:14.960
<v Speaker 10>Hmm.

0:27:16.440 --> 0:27:19.000
<v Speaker 2>I want a T shirt with objection irrelevant on it.

0:27:21.040 --> 0:27:23.560
<v Speaker 3>I guess relevant it not irrelevant. I'm sorry. I've been

0:27:23.560 --> 0:27:25.680
<v Speaker 3>in court a long time. Objection relevance.

0:27:27.480 --> 0:27:33.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, Cat, Uh, I'm sure. I'm sure that you've got,

0:27:33.520 --> 0:27:36.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, a lot lots more stories to tell. But

0:27:36.280 --> 0:27:38.040
<v Speaker 2>I think I think we're bad at a time here.

0:27:40.040 --> 0:27:46.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, but thank you for calling in and uh,

0:27:47.320 --> 0:27:49.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, bearing your soul to us.

0:27:52.240 --> 0:27:52.480
<v Speaker 11>Yeah.

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:54.720
<v Speaker 7>I'm just kind of bored.

0:27:56.400 --> 0:28:04.159
<v Speaker 2>Aren't we all? Yeah, thank you, Cat, I'll talk to

0:28:04.200 --> 0:28:04.520
<v Speaker 2>you soon.

0:28:08.560 --> 0:28:09.880
<v Speaker 3>Well do we think that was real?

0:28:11.320 --> 0:28:15.479
<v Speaker 2>Uh? You know what, Tom, I've been doing. I've been

0:28:15.520 --> 0:28:18.400
<v Speaker 2>taking calls with strangers and having people tell me things

0:28:18.760 --> 0:28:22.760
<v Speaker 2>for you know, the uh not not a really long time.

0:28:22.840 --> 0:28:26.840
<v Speaker 2>But I no longer asked that. I don't think any

0:28:26.880 --> 0:28:29.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it matters if it was real at

0:28:29.280 --> 0:28:29.919
<v Speaker 2>the end of the day.

0:28:30.000 --> 0:28:30.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I guess for set.

0:28:31.119 --> 0:28:34.679
<v Speaker 19>You know, reality is just what we perceive exactly, you know,

0:28:34.680 --> 0:28:36.920
<v Speaker 19>if we can. I mean, that was a pretty clear

0:28:36.960 --> 0:28:39.920
<v Speaker 19>picture in our head, so I mean it existed in

0:28:40.000 --> 0:28:41.000
<v Speaker 19>our minds at the.

0:28:42.880 --> 0:28:46.320

<v Speaker 12>I have.

0:28:59.040 --> 0:29:01.600
<v Speaker 3>A list of prime a whole list.

0:29:01.680 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 12>I mean, well I don't know about a whole list.

0:29:05.320 --> 0:29:07.440
<v Speaker 2>Well here let me tell you. You know, look, let

0:29:07.480 --> 0:29:09.760

<v Speaker 2>appreciate you know when people come in prepared. Sam. So,

0:29:13.280 --> 0:29:14.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad you made a list.

0:29:14.240 --> 0:29:14.400
<v Speaker 10>Yes.

0:29:14.560 --> 0:29:16.040
<v Speaker 12>Like I said, I'm new, so I don't really know

0:29:16.080 --> 0:29:17.640
<v Speaker 12>a whole lot actually just sub today.

0:29:17.960 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh thank you Bill. Well, what's what's number? What's let's

0:29:21.320 --> 0:29:23.200
<v Speaker 2>let's start at the top. What's what's on What's on

0:29:23.240 --> 0:29:26.120
<v Speaker 2>your list?

0:29:26.920 --> 0:29:30.680
<v Speaker 12>I'd say probably the first was like criminal trespass, that's

0:29:30.800 --> 0:29:31.960
<v Speaker 12>really not that big of a deal.

0:29:34.560 --> 0:29:37.240
<v Speaker 3>Well what what what about criminal trespass? Is there a

0:29:37.320 --> 0:29:39.400
<v Speaker 3>question or just the subject in general?

0:29:40.680 --> 0:29:43.280
<v Speaker 12>Just the subject in general. I never really got convicted

0:29:43.360 --> 0:29:46.800
<v Speaker 12>or anything for it, but when I was seventeen, I

0:29:46.880 --> 0:29:48.440
<v Speaker 12>did get a DUI.

0:29:52.040 --> 0:29:56.840
<v Speaker 2>Has that affected you in your in your later life?

0:29:58.440 --> 0:30:00.680
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, because I couldn't drive until it was like eighteen.

0:30:01.240 --> 0:30:04.040
<v Speaker 12>But then also I also got my license taken away

0:30:04.080 --> 0:30:07.000
<v Speaker 12>again because I had a fake ID when I was

0:30:07.040 --> 0:30:08.200
<v Speaker 12>like eighteen.

0:30:10.480 --> 0:30:14.920
<v Speaker 3>Does did your fake ID have somebody else's name on it?

0:30:16.200 --> 0:30:16.440
<v Speaker 9>Yes?

0:30:16.560 --> 0:30:19.480
<v Speaker 8>My brothers too.

0:30:20.560 --> 0:30:21.960
<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

0:30:22.720 --> 0:30:26.040
<v Speaker 12>It was also not even the same state. Some old

0:30:26.040 --> 0:30:28.160
<v Speaker 12>man who looks like Santa Claus just took it from

0:30:28.160 --> 0:30:29.680
<v Speaker 12>me at a sketchy gas station.

0:30:32.040 --> 0:30:34.920
<v Speaker 2>But some some random guy he took it from you.

0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:39.440
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, I was like, hey, that's my license, I need it.

0:30:40.200 --> 0:30:42.200
<v Speaker 12>But he scanned it under the machine and it said

0:30:42.200 --> 0:30:44.320
<v Speaker 12>I was a thousand years old, so it didn't work.

0:30:46.640 --> 0:30:49.520
<v Speaker 2>Which which is the thing? And I remember this like

0:30:49.680 --> 0:30:52.400
<v Speaker 2>in high school when people were using fake id's and

0:30:52.400 --> 0:30:55.240
<v Speaker 2>stuff like, which is the one that's worse using like

0:30:55.240 --> 0:30:58.640
<v Speaker 2>like creating a fake person or using someone else's thing?

0:30:58.640 --> 0:31:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Which is the one you get more fun? We'll, we'll,

0:31:01.040 --> 0:31:02.840
<v Speaker 2>we'll both.

0:31:02.400 --> 0:31:11.360
<v Speaker 3>They'd listen here, Yeah, okay, listen chat.

0:31:12.200 --> 0:31:16.720
<v Speaker 19>I'm not advocating for people to get fake IDs. However,

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:20.440
<v Speaker 19>if you have a fake ID, it's a lot better

0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:24.280
<v Speaker 19>if you use your own name and just fake the

0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:29.720
<v Speaker 19>day of birth, because in the alternative it can be

0:31:30.240 --> 0:31:34.840
<v Speaker 19>identity fraud. And even if you create a name like

0:31:34.960 --> 0:31:37.720
<v Speaker 19>make up a name, odd Dog, there's somebody with that name,

0:31:39.440 --> 0:31:43.000
<v Speaker 19>and that's identity fraud and that can be a lot worse.

0:31:43.080 --> 0:31:47.960
<v Speaker 19>And I actually personally know somebody who kind of was

0:31:48.000 --> 0:31:51.400
<v Speaker 19>in my high school like sphere. I wasn't really you know,

0:31:52.520 --> 0:31:55.960
<v Speaker 19>friends with her, but uh, you know, we would go

0:31:56.000 --> 0:31:56.800
<v Speaker 19>off to college.

0:31:56.840 --> 0:31:59.360
<v Speaker 3>And then a year later he goes, oh did you

0:31:59.360 --> 0:31:59.640
<v Speaker 3>hear so?

0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:03.000
<v Speaker 19>And so I got convicted of a felony for having

0:32:03.040 --> 0:32:07.160
<v Speaker 19>an ID with somebody else's identity.

0:32:07.440 --> 0:32:09.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean that's a bad beat, you know.

0:32:09.360 --> 0:32:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Bad beat.

0:32:11.160 --> 0:32:14.440
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, yeah, no. So also that's that's kind of the

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:18.240
<v Speaker 12>thing that happened is I went, you know, and then

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:20.760
<v Speaker 12>the guy who was working at the gas station gave

0:32:20.800 --> 0:32:23.760
<v Speaker 12>it to the police department, and then the police department

0:32:23.760 --> 0:32:25.720
<v Speaker 12>came to my house and then they tried to arrest

0:32:25.840 --> 0:32:30.480
<v Speaker 12>me for impersonation of someone else. But then they realized

0:32:30.520 --> 0:32:32.840
<v Speaker 12>that it was just my brother's fake ID that he

0:32:32.920 --> 0:32:34.360
<v Speaker 12>gave to me after he turned twenty one.

0:32:38.080 --> 0:32:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh, so it was your brother's fake ID, but it

0:32:40.880 --> 0:32:44.720
<v Speaker 2>was his It was your brother's brother's real ID that

0:32:44.760 --> 0:32:45.400
<v Speaker 2>he was using.

0:32:45.920 --> 0:32:48.560
<v Speaker 12>Ah, okay, no, no, no, no, it was his brother's

0:32:48.600 --> 0:32:53.040
<v Speaker 12>fake So he got it when he was underage and

0:32:53.080 --> 0:32:54.479
<v Speaker 12>then he just gave it to me because it kind

0:32:54.520 --> 0:32:55.160
<v Speaker 12>of like looked like.

0:32:57.440 --> 0:33:02.000
<v Speaker 2>Hm hm, and your brother got up yeah, free. It

0:33:02.000 --> 0:33:04.440
<v Speaker 2>worked for him.

0:33:04.600 --> 0:33:07.160
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, yeah, it worked for him. But then like, well,

0:33:07.240 --> 0:33:09.680
<v Speaker 12>actually his got taken once, but that's a whole nother story.

0:33:10.480 --> 0:33:11.920
<v Speaker 8>So it was like a spare.

0:33:15.840 --> 0:33:16.560
<v Speaker 9>But uh yeah.

0:33:16.600 --> 0:33:18.240
<v Speaker 12>So I was like basically put in the back of

0:33:18.280 --> 0:33:20.440
<v Speaker 12>a cop car and then just they sat me in

0:33:20.520 --> 0:33:22.880
<v Speaker 12>my driveway and they yelled at the police officer and

0:33:22.920 --> 0:33:25.200
<v Speaker 12>also brandished a knife at him. That was like a

0:33:25.200 --> 0:33:25.880
<v Speaker 12>whole another thing.

0:33:26.000 --> 0:33:28.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, your brother brandished a knife at the

0:33:28.600 --> 0:33:29.360
<v Speaker 2>police officer.

0:33:30.560 --> 0:33:31.120
<v Speaker 12>No I did.

0:33:31.560 --> 0:33:34.920
<v Speaker 3>Oh it's not smart. No, it just wasn't a good move.

0:33:35.360 --> 0:33:36.800
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no.

0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:39.560
<v Speaker 12>Well yeah I know it wasn't a good move.

0:33:39.640 --> 0:33:39.800
<v Speaker 9>Now.

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:41.000
<v Speaker 12>I mean I was drunk at the.

0:33:40.920 --> 0:33:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Time, and I mean, did you did you get arrested

0:33:44.840 --> 0:33:46.400
<v Speaker 2>that night? Did you spend that night in jail?

0:33:48.160 --> 0:33:48.800
<v Speaker 11>No?

0:33:48.800 --> 0:33:50.800
<v Speaker 12>No, actually I didn't. He actually let me go after

0:33:50.840 --> 0:33:51.800
<v Speaker 12>my mom talked to him.

0:33:52.120 --> 0:33:52.960
<v Speaker 4>Wow, because I was.

0:33:52.880 --> 0:33:55.720
<v Speaker 12>Like eighteen years old in college. I mean, I'm in

0:33:55.760 --> 0:33:56.280
<v Speaker 12>high school.

0:33:56.760 --> 0:33:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Your mom must have the gift of gab.

0:34:01.080 --> 0:34:02.800
<v Speaker 12>I mean she kind of does. I mean I got

0:34:02.800 --> 0:34:06.360
<v Speaker 12>pulled over like maybe like a month ago when I

0:34:06.400 --> 0:34:08.759
<v Speaker 12>was driving back from Colorado after like Thanksgiving.

0:34:09.160 --> 0:34:11.960
<v Speaker 2>How did your mom convince a cop not to arrest

0:34:12.000 --> 0:34:15.440
<v Speaker 2>you after you pulled a knife on him?

0:34:15.920 --> 0:34:16.360
<v Speaker 9>Uh?

0:34:16.400 --> 0:34:19.160
<v Speaker 12>Well, it was actually the police officer that kind of

0:34:19.200 --> 0:34:22.120
<v Speaker 12>did did that. He was kind of just like, hey, buddy,

0:34:22.120 --> 0:34:23.759
<v Speaker 12>don't do that ever again. But I took it out

0:34:23.760 --> 0:34:26.800
<v Speaker 12>of my pocket, I plucked it open. So I'm surprised

0:34:26.800 --> 0:34:28.120
<v Speaker 12>he didn't shoot me right then in there.

0:34:29.520 --> 0:34:32.520
<v Speaker 2>That's cow on. I can't believe that he let you

0:34:32.640 --> 0:34:35.560
<v Speaker 2>go after that. He just said, hey, buddy, don't do

0:34:35.640 --> 0:34:36.040
<v Speaker 2>it again.

0:34:37.719 --> 0:34:38.319
<v Speaker 12>Pretty much.

0:34:38.719 --> 0:34:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

0:34:40.960 --> 0:34:43.319
<v Speaker 12>But it was two am. He actually like he came

0:34:43.360 --> 0:34:44.719
<v Speaker 12>to my house. He knocked on my door. I was

0:34:44.760 --> 0:34:50.520
<v Speaker 12>already asleep, like I was drinking all night, and then

0:34:50.560 --> 0:34:52.400
<v Speaker 12>he came to my door. My mom woke me up.

0:34:52.440 --> 0:34:56.279
<v Speaker 12>She's like, put some put some pants on. There's a

0:34:56.280 --> 0:34:59.239
<v Speaker 12>police officer who wants to talk to you. But you know,

0:34:59.280 --> 0:35:01.080
<v Speaker 12>they always liked to stop and ask if you have

0:35:01.080 --> 0:35:03.840
<v Speaker 12>any weapons before you get in the cob car. Okay,

0:35:05.400 --> 0:35:08.360
<v Speaker 12>And so I took out my knife and I flicked

0:35:08.360 --> 0:35:11.360
<v Speaker 12>it open at him, and I was like, yeah, I

0:35:11.400 --> 0:35:14.160
<v Speaker 12>have this knife, but I mean like it was open

0:35:14.200 --> 0:35:17.000
<v Speaker 12>and pointed at him.

0:35:17.440 --> 0:35:28.359
<v Speaker 3>I think we shouldion this, we should probably pivot stories. Yeah,

0:35:28.360 --> 0:35:30.960
<v Speaker 3>that's probably let's just let's just recap.

0:35:30.520 --> 0:35:37.880
<v Speaker 19>It with your very fortunate Yes, the same dead for

0:35:38.000 --> 0:35:38.800
<v Speaker 19>a lot of people.

0:35:39.400 --> 0:35:44.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I agree, I agree. I mean what what what

0:35:44.160 --> 0:35:44.600
<v Speaker 2>would you say?

0:35:44.600 --> 0:35:47.400
<v Speaker 4>Your name was Sam?

0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:49.480
<v Speaker 2>Sam? What are you? What are you doing now with

0:35:50.480 --> 0:35:54.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, this second chance at life that you've been given?

0:35:57.000 --> 0:35:59.080
<v Speaker 12>Currently nothing. I've been trying to get jobs at a

0:35:59.160 --> 0:36:04.600
<v Speaker 12>job at a bar, but it didn't work out. It

0:36:04.640 --> 0:36:06.200
<v Speaker 12>didn't work out because it didn't show up.

0:36:07.160 --> 0:36:13.680
<v Speaker 3>M that will, that will generally do it. Well, why

0:36:13.760 --> 0:36:14.600
<v Speaker 3>didn't you show up?

0:36:17.000 --> 0:36:22.319
<v Speaker 12>Because it was a very uh toxic workplace environment. I

0:36:22.360 --> 0:36:23.880
<v Speaker 12>was probably working there for like two weeks.

0:36:24.280 --> 0:36:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh so why did you apply in the first place?

0:36:25.719 --> 0:36:27.319
<v Speaker 2>Did you not know it was toxic until then?

0:36:28.719 --> 0:36:28.799
<v Speaker 5>No?

0:36:28.920 --> 0:36:31.279
<v Speaker 12>I mean I didn't. So I worked there for two

0:36:31.280 --> 0:36:34.319
<v Speaker 12>weeks and I was like, hey, this kind of messed up.

0:36:35.680 --> 0:36:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Well what was toxic about?

0:36:36.640 --> 0:36:37.200
<v Speaker 12>Didn't show up?

0:36:42.840 --> 0:36:42.960
<v Speaker 11>Well?

0:36:42.960 --> 0:36:46.799
<v Speaker 3>I think you could do. So was the move not

0:36:46.920 --> 0:36:48.920
<v Speaker 3>showing up? Or do you think you should have just

0:36:49.320 --> 0:36:51.400
<v Speaker 3>let him put him on notice that you're quitting.

0:36:53.040 --> 0:36:55.640
<v Speaker 12>I mean I probably should have told him, but it

0:36:55.760 --> 0:36:57.520
<v Speaker 12>was like the day of like I had an epiphany

0:36:57.840 --> 0:36:58.200
<v Speaker 12>sort of.

0:37:00.080 --> 0:37:02.160
<v Speaker 14>It was actually I was supposed to show.

0:37:02.040 --> 0:37:05.680
<v Speaker 12>Up New Year's Day and I had epiphany this last

0:37:05.719 --> 0:37:08.160
<v Speaker 12>New years.

0:37:08.960 --> 0:37:09.080
<v Speaker 2>An e.

0:37:09.760 --> 0:37:11.600
<v Speaker 12>It was not a good idea. Yeah, yeah, it was

0:37:11.640 --> 0:37:12.680
<v Speaker 12>not a good idea.

0:37:15.239 --> 0:37:16.080
<v Speaker 2>To not show up.

0:37:17.840 --> 0:37:21.000
<v Speaker 12>Yes, because it was a bad job. And also my

0:37:21.040 --> 0:37:22.239
<v Speaker 12>brother kind of talked me out of it.

0:37:22.440 --> 0:37:25.719
<v Speaker 4>So what your name was?

0:37:25.840 --> 0:37:31.640
<v Speaker 2>One more time? Sorry, I'm bad with names, Sam, Sam? Well, Sam, listen,

0:37:33.280 --> 0:37:37.640
<v Speaker 2>as we've established, you've been giving a second chance at life,

0:37:37.840 --> 0:37:40.840
<v Speaker 2>and you know, good luck to you. Hope that you

<v Speaker 15>How are you?

0:38:46.920 --> 0:38:53.919
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing? I'm doing all right. I'm doing all right. Caroline. Uh,

0:38:54.320 --> 0:38:55.560
<v Speaker 2>do you have anything? Do you have a think on

0:38:55.640 --> 0:38:58.040
<v Speaker 2>your that you just want to get off your chest? Caroline?

0:38:59.800 --> 0:39:04.600
<v Speaker 11>Okay, So you guys were this is a lawyer and right,

0:39:05.160 --> 0:39:08.440
<v Speaker 11>and you were asking if you've done any crime. I

0:39:08.440 --> 0:39:10.000
<v Speaker 11>think I have some crimes to admit to.

0:39:10.400 --> 0:39:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Okay.

0:39:13.040 --> 0:39:16.200
<v Speaker 11>Sometimes I scam old men off the internet for money.

0:39:16.760 --> 0:39:18.640
<v Speaker 11>Oh I think that's a crime, isn't it.

0:39:19.320 --> 0:39:25.880
<v Speaker 3>Well hold on, let's let's go into this. Are you

0:39:26.880 --> 0:39:29.520
<v Speaker 3>promising something that you're not delivering on?

0:39:33.000 --> 0:39:33.200
<v Speaker 7>Yes?

0:39:34.360 --> 0:39:43.440
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I don't know. This is why I know.

0:39:43.640 --> 0:39:46.799
<v Speaker 19>Look, I want to be careful with the questions I ask,

0:39:47.920 --> 0:39:54.960
<v Speaker 19>but you know I would think that you know, like,

0:39:55.000 --> 0:39:57.560
<v Speaker 19>are you talking about like a sugar daddy type of site?

0:40:01.040 --> 0:40:01.440
<v Speaker 16>Yeah?

0:40:01.880 --> 0:40:02.880
<v Speaker 14>I okay.

0:40:02.960 --> 0:40:07.240
<v Speaker 11>So I have done like the cam model stuff before,

0:40:07.640 --> 0:40:10.399
<v Speaker 11>and that has given me like a following of old men.

0:40:10.800 --> 0:40:13.959
<v Speaker 11>And sometimes they message me and they're like, hey, i'll

0:40:13.960 --> 0:40:16.320
<v Speaker 11>pay you for this, send it to me. And I'm like,

0:40:16.320 --> 0:40:17.719
<v Speaker 11>all right, send me the money first, and then they

0:40:17.719 --> 0:40:18.960
<v Speaker 11>send me the money on my book.

0:40:21.760 --> 0:40:26.160
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, no, I think, I think, I think under those pretenses,

0:40:26.239 --> 0:40:30.280
<v Speaker 19>that's that's probably a scam. That's I would I would

0:40:30.280 --> 0:40:32.759
<v Speaker 19>even go as far as to say that you have

0:40:32.800 --> 0:40:36.360
<v Speaker 19>an oral contract, if not maybe even a renten contract,

0:40:36.360 --> 0:40:40.960
<v Speaker 19>if it's over text for you know, money in exchange

0:40:41.000 --> 0:40:48.360
<v Speaker 19>for services and you know you're not performing. Now, the

0:40:48.440 --> 0:40:55.480
<v Speaker 19>logical follow up to that is, you know, generally I

0:40:55.520 --> 0:40:59.080
<v Speaker 19>would anticipate nobody wants to follow through with enforcing that

0:40:59.200 --> 0:41:03.920
<v Speaker 19>through because one, it would be embarrassing for them. In two,

0:41:04.200 --> 0:41:08.279
<v Speaker 19>you know, lawyers charge hundreds of dollars an hour. I'm

0:41:08.280 --> 0:41:11.799
<v Speaker 19>not sure how much you're particularly charging, but you know,

0:41:12.000 --> 0:41:13.640
<v Speaker 19>if a lawyer is going to work on a case

0:41:13.680 --> 0:41:17.160
<v Speaker 19>for a minimum of one hundred hours, it would have

0:41:17.239 --> 0:41:20.960
<v Speaker 19>to be a substantial amount of money that you are

0:41:21.160 --> 0:41:24.080
<v Speaker 19>charging for it to make economic sense for them to

0:41:24.160 --> 0:41:30.680
<v Speaker 19>bring a lawsuit against you to enforce. But yeah, I mean,

0:41:30.880 --> 0:41:34.400
<v Speaker 19>I think, I think technically what you're doing is scamming.

0:41:36.000 --> 0:41:40.200
<v Speaker 2>But now these services, like these services that you are

0:41:40.239 --> 0:41:44.920
<v Speaker 2>claiming that you are are are promising but not delivering.

0:41:45.040 --> 0:41:49.160
<v Speaker 2>There are there are they in the first place? Legal services?

0:41:49.239 --> 0:41:51.160
<v Speaker 2>Are they legal services?

0:41:53.920 --> 0:41:57.120
<v Speaker 18>I don't know, I'm.

0:41:57.040 --> 0:41:59.200
<v Speaker 11>Not sure about the laws on that and stuff.

0:41:59.200 --> 0:42:01.279
<v Speaker 14>I probably should where I do it, right, but.

0:42:03.960 --> 0:42:06.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, it's like only fans is legal.

0:42:06.680 --> 0:42:10.960
<v Speaker 19>Yeah, I mean, you know, so long as you're you know,

0:42:11.040 --> 0:42:15.560
<v Speaker 19>an adult, which you are, and the other person's an adult,

0:42:16.320 --> 0:42:23.279
<v Speaker 19>and you know it's all in exchange over phone, you know,

0:42:23.360 --> 0:42:25.400
<v Speaker 19>like you know in some some states you know, like

0:42:25.520 --> 0:42:29.319
<v Speaker 19>you know, not to get too into it, but you know,

0:42:29.360 --> 0:42:32.279
<v Speaker 19>like in Nevada, like prostitution, right, but that's I'm pretty

0:42:32.280 --> 0:42:34.880
<v Speaker 19>sure the only state where that's illegal. But we're not

0:42:34.960 --> 0:42:42.240
<v Speaker 19>talking about that. Hey, my girlfriends, we're talking about only fans.

0:42:42.320 --> 0:42:44.239
<v Speaker 19>We're talking about only fans in prostitution.

0:42:46.360 --> 0:42:47.279
<v Speaker 2>Al Rachel, how are you.

0:42:50.320 --> 0:42:50.360
<v Speaker 15>So?

0:42:52.960 --> 0:42:57.240
<v Speaker 2>She came at? She came at a good time. Hello

0:42:59.719 --> 0:43:03.160
<v Speaker 2>the So. So you you were into cam you weren

0:43:03.160 --> 0:43:04.879
<v Speaker 2>into cam modeling, but you got out of it.

0:43:06.680 --> 0:43:10.960
<v Speaker 11>Yeah. I did it for a while and then I

0:43:11.000 --> 0:43:15.000
<v Speaker 11>got out of it and I had a boyfriend. I

0:43:15.040 --> 0:43:16.720
<v Speaker 11>was like, you can't do that. So I was like, okay,

0:43:16.760 --> 0:43:18.600
<v Speaker 11>whatever because I was done. And then I grew up

0:43:18.640 --> 0:43:21.799
<v Speaker 11>with him and now I have a lovely girlfriend and

0:43:21.840 --> 0:43:24.359
<v Speaker 11>she sometimes helps me out with these acts. I don't

0:43:24.360 --> 0:43:26.080
<v Speaker 11>do it like all the time, and I don't do

0:43:26.120 --> 0:43:28.640
<v Speaker 11>it for like large amounts of money. It's just whenever

0:43:28.680 --> 0:43:31.160
<v Speaker 11>I'm like feeling a little crazy and somebody DMed me

0:43:31.280 --> 0:43:33.120
<v Speaker 11>and they're like, can I get this?

0:43:34.000 --> 0:43:34.640
<v Speaker 21>You know what I mean?

0:43:35.400 --> 0:43:37.680
<v Speaker 11>Just occasionally. It's not all the time, but it is,

0:43:38.560 --> 0:43:39.960
<v Speaker 11>I think the only crime that I have.

0:43:40.960 --> 0:43:42.560
<v Speaker 2>But if so, if you have like a bunch of

0:43:42.640 --> 0:43:43.960
<v Speaker 2>what I'm curious about is if you have a bunch

0:43:43.960 --> 0:43:46.200
<v Speaker 2>of followers, like are you are you still doing like

0:43:46.360 --> 0:43:50.839
<v Speaker 2>not like scamming people like actual like cam model then

0:43:51.000 --> 0:43:52.000
<v Speaker 2>like OnlyFans or anything.

0:43:54.280 --> 0:43:57.000
<v Speaker 11>Okay, I did it was it was just like a

0:43:57.080 --> 0:44:02.120
<v Speaker 11>cam It was just like a cam site. Yeah, So

0:44:03.160 --> 0:44:05.399
<v Speaker 11>I don't do it as much anymore because and then

0:44:07.080 --> 0:44:08.520
<v Speaker 11>it's a campsite. And then I stopped doing it, and

0:44:08.520 --> 0:44:11.960
<v Speaker 11>then I started doing it again, but some of them

0:44:12.000 --> 0:44:16.600
<v Speaker 11>found out my Instagram somehow. Also, I just have some

0:44:16.719 --> 0:44:19.040
<v Speaker 11>creepy men that's all on my Instagram and asked for

0:44:19.640 --> 0:44:24.240
<v Speaker 11>things because creepy men often do that to young women

0:44:24.520 --> 0:44:26.560
<v Speaker 11>on social media.

0:44:26.600 --> 0:44:28.799
<v Speaker 2>So are you are you glad to be you know,

0:44:29.080 --> 0:44:34.880
<v Speaker 2>out of out of this this uh world of caning.

0:44:37.600 --> 0:44:39.640
<v Speaker 6>I'm sort of indifferent to it.

0:44:40.320 --> 0:44:40.640
<v Speaker 15>Really.

0:44:41.719 --> 0:44:45.160
<v Speaker 11>I I was fine with it, and then I found

0:44:45.160 --> 0:44:46.960
<v Speaker 11>out one day, I don't know why I didn't know this,

0:44:47.239 --> 0:44:52.680
<v Speaker 11>but I looked up my user name and I I

0:44:52.680 --> 0:44:55.400
<v Speaker 11>looked at my username and and the images of just

0:44:55.440 --> 0:44:57.719
<v Speaker 11>like everything, and I was like, I have got to

0:44:58.200 --> 0:45:02.239
<v Speaker 11>I can't do this anymore because I also use my

0:45:02.320 --> 0:45:06.400
<v Speaker 11>user name for like other I don't know, like just sits.

0:45:06.400 --> 0:45:09.840

<v Speaker 11>have both calling the number a lot.

0:45:22.800 --> 0:45:23.600
<v Speaker 20>She finally caught it.

0:45:25.960 --> 0:45:28.840
<v Speaker 2>What's what I want to hear about her crimes as well?

0:45:30.719 --> 0:45:32.240
<v Speaker 11>Okay, here's Lily.

0:45:33.080 --> 0:45:35.239
<v Speaker 22>I mean, I don't really have any crimes. I think

0:45:35.280 --> 0:45:38.120
<v Speaker 22>she's she's the wide one, and I kind of I

0:45:38.200 --> 0:45:38.920
<v Speaker 22>kind of mother her.

0:45:39.320 --> 0:45:40.760
<v Speaker 2>You're more of an accomplished type.

0:45:42.239 --> 0:45:45.439
<v Speaker 22>Yeah, I mean, like I like, I'm I guess I'm

0:45:45.440 --> 0:45:48.759
<v Speaker 22>more of like the I'm younger, but I'm more of

0:45:48.800 --> 0:45:50.319
<v Speaker 22>like the older one. I tell her to like clean

0:45:50.360 --> 0:45:53.520
<v Speaker 22>her room and stuff. But the ironic thing, the ironic

0:45:53.600 --> 0:45:55.680
<v Speaker 22>thing about it is that I call her mommy.

0:45:55.719 --> 0:46:03.280
<v Speaker 21>And what I'm sorry.

0:46:04.160 --> 0:46:09.400
<v Speaker 3>I can hear the embarrassment in her voice from here, I'm.

0:46:09.200 --> 0:46:14.960
<v Speaker 21>Gonna getublem Sorry you publicly apologize to her that I

0:46:15.040 --> 0:46:21.200

<v Speaker 19>promise you it's only like seventy percent chance of that

0:46:28.080 --> 0:46:30.879
<v Speaker 19>getting clipped, of course.

0:46:31.239 --> 0:46:32.560
<v Speaker 9>I mean, I don't mind.

0:46:32.920 --> 0:46:35.680
<v Speaker 21>I don't think honestly, nobody knows who we are.

0:46:35.960 --> 0:46:37.839
<v Speaker 22>Sometimes you make PI talks about it, though, so that's

0:46:37.880 --> 0:46:42.279
<v Speaker 22>pay back. Okay, Sorry, that's all right, I don't mind.

0:47:38.440 --> 0:47:40.560
<v Speaker 22>we're afraid about what our first fight will be. We

0:47:40.640 --> 0:47:42.560
<v Speaker 22>like guess what we think it'll be, and like it

0:47:42.640 --> 0:47:44.960

<v Speaker 22>Thank you.

0:48:28.520 --> 0:48:31.800
<v Speaker 2>By can I guess.

0:48:33.600 --> 0:48:39.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so so that's totally scamming. You know, it's totally yeah.

0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:41.920
<v Speaker 3>I was I was hesitant at the beginning. You know,

0:48:42.480 --> 0:48:44.680
<v Speaker 3>I thought, maybe she's going with the direction, like you know,

0:48:45.880 --> 0:48:47.880
<v Speaker 3>she's like just flirting with these old guys and they

0:48:48.040 --> 0:48:49.759
<v Speaker 3>just throw money at her. And you know I would

0:48:49.760 --> 0:48:52.560
<v Speaker 3>have said, that's the old guys problem, you know. But right,

0:48:52.960 --> 0:48:59.040
<v Speaker 3>but but she was promising photos or services and you know,

0:48:59.239 --> 0:49:00.680
<v Speaker 3>just took their mind even blocked.

0:49:01.239 --> 0:49:03.640
<v Speaker 2>But you I mean, but you, I mean you you

0:49:03.719 --> 0:49:07.040
<v Speaker 2>were totally correct when you're like, well, all right, who's

0:49:07.080 --> 0:49:09.360
<v Speaker 2>who's going to go to a uh you know, file

0:49:09.400 --> 0:49:14.600
<v Speaker 2>a lawsuit against someone for not you know, sending them right?

0:49:15.120 --> 0:49:18.600
<v Speaker 3>Totally It's it's totally unrealistic, you know, on the civil

0:49:18.719 --> 0:49:21.520
<v Speaker 3>side for somebody to go through that process, you know,

0:49:21.600 --> 0:49:25.320
<v Speaker 3>be embarrassing, it be expensive, and you're probably only arguing

0:49:25.360 --> 0:49:27.520
<v Speaker 3>over like, you know, a few hundred bucks.

0:49:27.719 --> 0:49:32.680
<v Speaker 2>You know. I do wonder if if there's gotta be

0:49:33.520 --> 0:49:36.560
<v Speaker 2>someone who does who's not embarrassed at all, who who

0:49:37.719 --> 0:49:40.560
<v Speaker 2>uh has there's gotta have been a lawsuit about that

0:49:40.640 --> 0:49:41.960
<v Speaker 2>at some point.

0:49:42.080 --> 0:49:43.919
<v Speaker 3>I bet, yeah, one hundred percent.

0:49:43.960 --> 0:49:47.640
<v Speaker 19>I'm just playing the statistics, you know, you know, there's

0:49:47.680 --> 0:49:50.400
<v Speaker 19>probably some guy, you know, like there's been people who

0:49:50.480 --> 0:49:53.239
<v Speaker 19>have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars suing over like

0:49:53.239 --> 0:49:55.319
<v Speaker 19>one hundred dollars, like, you know, it's the principle of

0:49:55.320 --> 0:49:58.000
<v Speaker 19>the matter, like that kind of thing. So if somebody

0:49:58.120 --> 0:50:02.160
<v Speaker 19>really had you know, had it out for miss Caroline,

0:50:03.080 --> 0:50:06.560
<v Speaker 19>you know, but I mean, come on, let's get real,

0:50:07.000 --> 0:50:09.839
<v Speaker 19>and then if that ever happened, Caroline could just be like, yeah,

0:50:09.840 --> 0:50:11.680
<v Speaker 19>here's your money back, go away, you.

0:50:11.640 --> 0:50:19.319
<v Speaker 2>Know, right right, So she's she's got a good thing going.

<v Speaker 2>me a story.

0:53:18.760 --> 0:53:22.040
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, you've been giving me theraphy since I was eight. Man,

0:53:22.080 --> 0:53:24.880
<v Speaker 8>I'm a forty five year old man, and you have

0:53:25.000 --> 0:53:30.120
<v Speaker 8>taken me back to a time that brings me joy.

0:53:31.239 --> 0:53:33.560
<v Speaker 8>It was scary when I was seven and my parents

0:53:33.560 --> 0:53:38.200
<v Speaker 8>told me we're moving to Africa. We were leaving Nebraska.

0:53:38.640 --> 0:53:42.520
<v Speaker 8>My dad wanted to be a missionary, and we got

0:53:42.560 --> 0:53:47.480
<v Speaker 8>to Liberia five days before I turned eight. And the

0:53:47.560 --> 0:53:52.080
<v Speaker 8>first night we were there, we went to our new

0:53:52.120 --> 0:53:55.120
<v Speaker 8>home and up in the corner of the room was

0:53:55.120 --> 0:54:00.480
<v Speaker 8>a gecko. And my mom got my sister and she

0:54:00.680 --> 0:54:04.799
<v Speaker 8>was four, and said, hey, we got a pet. It's

0:54:04.800 --> 0:54:08.239
<v Speaker 8>a get go. Look what should we name it? And

0:54:08.280 --> 0:54:14.919
<v Speaker 8>we named it Peter, and we were like, all right, cool.

0:54:15.280 --> 0:54:18.560
<v Speaker 8>We lived there for a couple of days and we

0:54:18.640 --> 0:54:21.680
<v Speaker 8>moved to a new house and in the new house

0:54:22.760 --> 0:54:26.000
<v Speaker 8>there was a gecko. Because this is tropical West Africa

0:54:27.040 --> 0:54:29.040
<v Speaker 8>and there's a gecko in every room in every house.

0:54:29.480 --> 0:54:32.839
<v Speaker 8>But I didn't know that because I was seven, and

0:54:32.840 --> 0:54:37.800
<v Speaker 8>my mom says, look, there's a gecko. It's a repeat.

0:54:44.719 --> 0:54:48.640
<v Speaker 8>And so being seven, growing up overseas in a strange

0:54:48.680 --> 0:54:52.080
<v Speaker 8>foreign country, I got comfort every time I went somewhere

0:54:52.080 --> 0:54:55.480
<v Speaker 8>and I saw get go. It's the weirdest thing. Man,

0:54:55.680 --> 0:54:58.560
<v Speaker 8>I may be crazy, but I just caught you to night.

0:55:00.000 --> 0:55:01.520
<v Speaker 8>Thought i'd listen in and try to give you a

0:55:01.520 --> 0:55:05.200
<v Speaker 8>call and tell you my story. That's all I got

0:55:05.200 --> 0:55:05.400
<v Speaker 8>for you.

0:55:05.520 --> 0:55:10.080
<v Speaker 2>Man, tell me what is it about these geckos that

0:55:10.200 --> 0:55:14.239
<v Speaker 2>give you comfort? They reminded you of oh that time?

0:55:14.360 --> 0:55:18.880
<v Speaker 8>No, yeah, yeah, well we always called geckos repeats now

0:55:19.000 --> 0:55:22.000
<v Speaker 8>my family, so we got little like stuff being back

0:55:22.080 --> 0:55:24.960
<v Speaker 8>geckos and stuff that we've got from you know, mementos

0:55:25.000 --> 0:55:27.480
<v Speaker 8>and things like that. But it was just being seven

0:55:27.760 --> 0:55:30.600
<v Speaker 8>and having been uprooted growing up and you know, the

0:55:30.600 --> 0:55:33.200
<v Speaker 8>middle of the country in the US, and then all

0:55:33.280 --> 0:55:35.880
<v Speaker 8>of a sudden you're flying like three thousand miles across

0:55:35.920 --> 0:55:39.400
<v Speaker 8>the world and you land in this country seven degrees

0:55:39.480 --> 0:55:43.080
<v Speaker 8>north of the equator and it's ninety eight degrees all

0:55:43.160 --> 0:55:45.839
<v Speaker 8>day every day, and you walk out and you've got

0:55:45.880 --> 0:55:50.520
<v Speaker 8>no friends. Everybody everybody's African, you're white. You know, you're

0:55:50.600 --> 0:55:54.880
<v Speaker 8>just this little kid and having some continuity in their life.

0:55:55.080 --> 0:55:57.879
<v Speaker 8>You know, it wasn't a big deal. It's not really

0:55:57.960 --> 0:55:59.719
<v Speaker 8>a big deal. It's just cool that you know you're

0:56:00.080 --> 0:56:03.080
<v Speaker 8>up to get go and it took me back, but.

0:56:05.360 --> 0:56:05.880
<v Speaker 17>I love that you.

0:56:08.120 --> 0:56:10.840
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, that's right. My mom, you know, firston to hear me.

0:56:11.320 --> 0:56:12.080
<v Speaker 8>She gave it to me.

0:56:14.560 --> 0:56:16.040
<v Speaker 2>Do you do you think of that every time you

0:56:16.040 --> 0:56:17.200
<v Speaker 2>see it? I mean, I don't know how often you

0:56:17.239 --> 0:56:19.120
<v Speaker 2>see a geck go out in the wild before you

0:56:19.120 --> 0:56:22.239
<v Speaker 2>know the stream, But do you think of that every

0:56:22.239 --> 0:56:23.759
<v Speaker 2>time you see a gecko out in the wild?

0:56:24.040 --> 0:56:24.160
<v Speaker 16>Oh?

0:56:24.239 --> 0:56:27.520
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's totally a family joke, you know.

0:56:27.560 --> 0:56:29.480
<v Speaker 8>So every time I see a geck go, I think back.

0:56:31.360 --> 0:56:31.719
<v Speaker 3>How long?

0:56:32.200 --> 0:56:33.480
<v Speaker 2>How long were you in Liberia for?

0:56:35.040 --> 0:56:37.600
<v Speaker 8>I got there five days before I turned eight, and

0:56:38.120 --> 0:56:41.319
<v Speaker 8>I was there and at Christmas in eighty nine when

0:56:41.360 --> 0:56:45.640
<v Speaker 8>the Civil War broke out, you know, we had just left.

0:56:45.960 --> 0:56:50.200
<v Speaker 8>We got the call five days at Christmas, basically when

0:56:50.239 --> 0:56:53.160
<v Speaker 8>the rebels came in the country. We got the phone call.

0:56:53.760 --> 0:56:58.960
<v Speaker 8>And I'm in ninth grade and my parents go, hey, John, safety,

0:56:59.120 --> 0:57:02.719
<v Speaker 8>that's my sister. They said there's been a coup. The

0:57:02.760 --> 0:57:05.000
<v Speaker 8>rebels have come in from member county and they're trying,

0:57:05.719 --> 0:57:09.080
<v Speaker 8>you know, they're marching on the capitol. And as a

0:57:09.160 --> 0:57:11.520
<v Speaker 8>kid growing up, you know, in school, we had a

0:57:11.560 --> 0:57:14.160
<v Speaker 8>coup every year, like it was, you know, once or

0:57:14.200 --> 0:57:16.320
<v Speaker 8>twice a year, somebody had cut over through the government.

0:57:16.880 --> 0:57:18.320
<v Speaker 8>We'd wake up in the morning, they'd do it. No

0:57:18.400 --> 0:57:20.360
<v Speaker 8>school today. We'd be like, oh, it's a snow day,

0:57:20.480 --> 0:57:24.200
<v Speaker 8>you know, like, no school, We're going back tomorrow, right.

0:57:24.360 --> 0:57:26.360
<v Speaker 8>But that civil war, man, that worker, I don't know

0:57:26.360 --> 0:57:29.959
<v Speaker 8>if you know the history of Liberia at all, since

0:57:30.000 --> 0:57:32.800
<v Speaker 8>eighty nine, From nineteen eighty nine till two thousand and five,

0:57:32.880 --> 0:57:35.240
<v Speaker 8>that country was in civil war. So I lost all

0:57:35.280 --> 0:57:37.920
<v Speaker 8>my friends that I grew up with over there. You know.

0:57:37.960 --> 0:57:41.840
<v Speaker 8>I got a few American friends obviously, and international friends

0:57:41.840 --> 0:57:44.760
<v Speaker 8>from there, but the village kid I grew up with

0:57:44.880 --> 0:57:48.680
<v Speaker 8>were all and who knows what happened to them.

0:57:48.920 --> 0:57:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Did you have friends that were killed?

0:57:53.320 --> 0:57:56.080
<v Speaker 8>I'm sure there probably were, man, But I was living

0:57:56.120 --> 0:57:59.880
<v Speaker 8>close enough to the capital city that pretty much everybody

0:58:00.080 --> 0:58:02.880
<v Speaker 8>came from the interior of the country to the capital city.

0:58:03.440 --> 0:58:07.640
<v Speaker 8>So the fighting arrived eventually, but by then it was

0:58:07.920 --> 0:58:11.480
<v Speaker 8>pretty much a done deal. It wasn't. I don't think

0:58:11.520 --> 0:58:13.960
<v Speaker 8>any of my friends ended up being child soldiers or

0:58:14.000 --> 0:58:17.280
<v Speaker 8>actually being killed at all, but it is quite possible.

0:58:17.280 --> 0:58:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Good, So you were there, So let's see. So let

0:58:22.680 --> 0:58:23.840
<v Speaker 2>you left in ninth grade.

0:58:25.480 --> 0:58:27.800
<v Speaker 8>Right, left in ninth grade. Fully expected to go back

0:58:28.000 --> 0:58:29.960
<v Speaker 8>in the next three years of high school in Liberia

0:58:30.040 --> 0:58:32.440
<v Speaker 8>before I'd graduated come back to the States. But because

0:58:32.440 --> 0:58:34.640
<v Speaker 8>the war broke out, my parents got reassigned and I

0:58:34.720 --> 0:58:36.520
<v Speaker 8>ended up in Nigeria instead.

0:58:38.040 --> 0:58:40.120
<v Speaker 2>She stayed in Africa. He didn't go back to When

0:58:40.120 --> 0:58:42.000
<v Speaker 2>When did you eventually go back to the US.

0:58:43.480 --> 0:58:46.360
<v Speaker 8>I came back to the States for college, but from

0:58:46.840 --> 0:58:48.640
<v Speaker 8>third grade all the way through the end of high school,

0:58:48.680 --> 0:58:51.040
<v Speaker 8>man I was in I was in Libera in Nigeria,

0:58:51.120 --> 0:58:53.280
<v Speaker 8>left Africa for all but sixteen months.

0:58:53.600 --> 0:58:57.520
<v Speaker 2>Wow, what was it like coming back from What was

0:58:57.560 --> 0:58:59.840
<v Speaker 2>it like going to the US from Africa? And like,

0:59:00.040 --> 0:59:02.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, still you know, you're you're you know you're

0:59:02.480 --> 0:59:05.080
<v Speaker 2>white and you have a you know, American accent, but

0:59:05.240 --> 0:59:09.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, you're the culture is still you know, different.

0:59:09.760 --> 0:59:12.960
<v Speaker 8>A lot of people have Yeah, a lot of people

0:59:13.000 --> 0:59:14.520
<v Speaker 8>have a lot of trouble with that. There's a lot

0:59:14.520 --> 0:59:17.720
<v Speaker 8>of missionary kids to have trouble with that. I didn't.

0:59:17.760 --> 0:59:19.640
<v Speaker 8>I'm a bit of a chameleon. I kind of fit

0:59:19.720 --> 0:59:20.240
<v Speaker 8>in everywhere.

0:59:20.360 --> 0:59:25.400
<v Speaker 2>You know, Okay, you had less trouble you you say

0:59:25.480 --> 0:59:27.880
<v Speaker 2>you so you would consider yourself adaptable in general.

0:59:28.880 --> 0:59:31.760
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, yeah, absolutely inflexible, there's no question about that.

0:59:32.680 --> 0:59:32.920
<v Speaker 9>M h.

0:59:34.000 --> 0:59:36.320
<v Speaker 8>Yeah. I go anywhere. I got friends all over the world,

0:59:36.920 --> 0:59:42.040
<v Speaker 8>all different nationalities, all different races, all different religious backgrounds.

0:59:42.080 --> 0:59:43.840
<v Speaker 8>You know, my parents like, you know, I heard you

0:59:43.880 --> 0:59:45.720
<v Speaker 8>talking about your bar Mitzvah and you hadn't talked to God.

0:59:46.080 --> 0:59:48.240
<v Speaker 8>I pretty much don't go to church anymore either. Then

0:59:48.280 --> 0:59:49.840
<v Speaker 8>I grew up in the on the mission field.

0:59:50.440 --> 0:59:53.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, is that a conscious decision? Did you decide

0:59:53.200 --> 0:59:54.680
<v Speaker 2>to leave the church for a particular reason?

0:59:58.200 --> 1:00:00.560
<v Speaker 8>Not really a little bit of its blowback what happened

1:00:00.560 --> 1:00:03.160
<v Speaker 8>with my dad though he had been working and born

1:00:03.240 --> 1:00:08.280
<v Speaker 8>his you know, soul into theological education, that extension, which

1:00:08.320 --> 1:00:11.600
<v Speaker 8>is a program of taking seminary classes to leaders of

1:00:11.680 --> 1:00:15.800
<v Speaker 8>churches that couldn't come to seminary and they basically, well

1:00:15.840 --> 1:00:18.600
<v Speaker 8>they asked that program, asked her about fifteen years of

1:00:18.640 --> 1:00:23.160
<v Speaker 8>him doing it, and the way they handled it wasn't

1:00:23.280 --> 1:00:27.000
<v Speaker 8>very impressive. He he and he left the mission field,

1:00:27.040 --> 1:00:31.160
<v Speaker 8>came back to the States, and you know he pastors

1:00:31.160 --> 1:00:33.600
<v Speaker 8>a small church now here in campus, thirty eight people.

1:00:35.240 --> 1:00:36.880
<v Speaker 2>But how does he feel about the fact that you

1:00:36.920 --> 1:00:38.280
<v Speaker 2>don't go to church anymore?

1:00:40.640 --> 1:00:42.920
<v Speaker 8>Well, he's not happy about it, but you know, he's

1:00:43.000 --> 1:00:44.920
<v Speaker 8>like for me to come with him. But you know,

1:00:44.960 --> 1:00:46.720
<v Speaker 8>he's go to the church, but I don't. But they

1:00:46.720 --> 1:00:48.440
<v Speaker 8>don't bug me about it.

1:00:48.400 --> 1:00:51.800
<v Speaker 2>It's because they don't bug you about it. What do

1:00:51.880 --> 1:00:52.640
<v Speaker 2>you what do you do now?

1:00:54.000 --> 1:00:59.400
<v Speaker 8>Oh, I'm in corporate finance. I look at mergers and acquisitions.

1:00:59.400 --> 1:01:02.520
<v Speaker 8>I'm trying toigure out how to finance power plant solar

1:01:02.560 --> 1:01:07.000
<v Speaker 8>power plants in a regulated utility environment. It's pretty boring,

1:01:07.960 --> 1:01:11.040
<v Speaker 8>very mass and finance based. But it is what I do.

1:01:11.800 --> 1:01:19.360
<v Speaker 8>My talent and Joe Numbers always asked, do you.

1:01:19.800 --> 1:01:21.360
<v Speaker 2>Does what you do? Do you feel? I mean you

1:01:21.440 --> 1:01:24.640
<v Speaker 2>use you? You know where else have you spent extended

1:01:24.680 --> 1:01:27.920
<v Speaker 2>amounts of time in besides Africa? You said you have

1:01:27.920 --> 1:01:29.600
<v Speaker 2>friends all over the world. Or was it that you

1:01:29.640 --> 1:01:31.920
<v Speaker 2>had like friends in Africa that then went all over

1:01:31.960 --> 1:01:32.520
<v Speaker 2>the world.

1:01:33.680 --> 1:01:38.000
<v Speaker 8>Well, yeah that they I met them all in Library

1:01:38.000 --> 1:01:40.480
<v Speaker 8>and Nigeria. But when you get to school, every semester

1:01:40.640 --> 1:01:42.800
<v Speaker 8>pretty much. Twenty five percent of the class is new.

1:01:43.360 --> 1:01:45.760
<v Speaker 8>You know, people are going on furlough, they're coming back

1:01:45.800 --> 1:01:48.040
<v Speaker 8>after a year being gone, that sort of thing. So

1:01:48.120 --> 1:01:51.920
<v Speaker 8>you're always constantly making new friends and losing friends. I mean,

1:01:51.920 --> 1:01:53.720
<v Speaker 8>the only constant in your life is the fact that

1:01:54.160 --> 1:01:55.960
<v Speaker 8>your friends are going to change. People are going to

1:01:56.000 --> 1:01:58.480
<v Speaker 8>come and go from your life. That's just it. That's

1:01:58.480 --> 1:02:01.040
<v Speaker 8>just the way it is. I don't have the only

1:02:01.920 --> 1:02:04.320
<v Speaker 8>you asked another caller, how many you know, close friends

1:02:04.320 --> 1:02:07.400
<v Speaker 8>you had? I had one. He passed away in Hawaii,

1:02:07.640 --> 1:02:10.400
<v Speaker 8>drunk one night and high and jumped off the edge

1:02:10.440 --> 1:02:13.080
<v Speaker 8>of the east east side of the Big Islands and drowned.

1:02:13.800 --> 1:02:15.960
<v Speaker 2>Sorry to hear that, Yeah, I.

1:02:15.920 --> 1:02:21.880
<v Speaker 8>Appreciate it was, you know, eighteen years ago. But but yeah,

1:02:22.120 --> 1:02:24.920
<v Speaker 8>people come and go. You know, you make fast friends.

1:02:25.080 --> 1:02:27.240
<v Speaker 8>When you see him again ten years later, you pick

1:02:27.320 --> 1:02:28.960
<v Speaker 8>up like it never happened, like you know, you know,

1:02:29.000 --> 1:02:33.960
<v Speaker 8>you never missed him totally. Yeah.

1:02:34.560 --> 1:02:35.040
<v Speaker 4>Mm hmmm.

1:02:37.080 --> 1:02:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Do you are you married?

1:02:40.200 --> 1:02:40.480
<v Speaker 9>Uh?

1:02:40.720 --> 1:02:41.960
<v Speaker 8>Going through a divorce? Man?

1:02:42.360 --> 1:02:43.840
<v Speaker 2>So sorry to hear that.

1:02:44.680 --> 1:02:50.000
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I appreciate it. Yes, I am there. I got

1:02:50.000 --> 1:02:53.200
<v Speaker 8>two kids. They're wonderful. One's a senior in high school.

1:02:55.360 --> 1:02:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, have they been. Uh uh Are they well traveled?

1:02:59.480 --> 1:03:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Did you take them around different places? Did you have

1:03:01.600 --> 1:03:04.000
<v Speaker 2>you taken your kids back to, like Africa to show

1:03:04.000 --> 1:03:05.160
<v Speaker 2>them sort of where you grew up.

1:03:07.280 --> 1:03:10.040
<v Speaker 8>I have not yet. The last time I was in

1:03:10.400 --> 1:03:12.120
<v Speaker 8>Africa was in nineteen ninety seven.

1:03:12.800 --> 1:03:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Wow, yeah, Well what were you doing back there?

1:03:17.880 --> 1:03:20.520
<v Speaker 8>Well? I graduated from high college and my sister was

1:03:20.560 --> 1:03:22.320
<v Speaker 8>graduated from high school, so I went back for her

1:03:22.360 --> 1:03:26.720
<v Speaker 8>college high school graduation. Nice o, good, that's the last time.

1:03:26.880 --> 1:03:29.120
<v Speaker 8>It was a lot different back then. Man. I was

1:03:29.160 --> 1:03:33.000
<v Speaker 8>a little nine year old white kid running around Monrovia, Liberia,

1:03:33.360 --> 1:03:38.480
<v Speaker 8>seven degrees north of the equator, where everybody is everybody's black,

1:03:38.840 --> 1:03:40.920
<v Speaker 8>and they watched out for the little kids, you know,

1:03:40.960 --> 1:03:43.480
<v Speaker 8>they watched out for the little white kid. They didn't,

1:03:43.920 --> 1:03:47.320
<v Speaker 8>you know, have people trying to kidnap you and hold

1:03:47.360 --> 1:03:49.920
<v Speaker 8>you for ransom. That's what's happening out there now. You know,

1:03:49.960 --> 1:03:52.360
<v Speaker 8>it's a horrible place to be, But it wasn't like

1:03:52.440 --> 1:04:03.000
<v Speaker 8>that when I was there in the eighties. When people

1:04:03.040 --> 1:04:04.840
<v Speaker 8>say where are you from, John, I always go how

1:04:04.880 --> 1:04:06.680
<v Speaker 8>far back do you want me to go? Because my

1:04:06.720 --> 1:04:08.400
<v Speaker 8>dad was still in the Navy when I was born

1:04:08.400 --> 1:04:14.400
<v Speaker 8>in Iceland, so it is a story journey.

1:04:14.160 --> 1:04:14.560
<v Speaker 12>I've been on.

1:04:15.520 --> 1:04:17.800

<v Speaker 10>All from Olivia.

1:05:19.520 --> 1:05:22.000
<v Speaker 17>Olivia.

1:05:22.880 --> 1:05:28.640
<v Speaker 2>Hello, what's your confession? Olivia?

1:05:29.640 --> 1:05:31.520
<v Speaker 18>I don't like my roommate too much?

1:05:34.840 --> 1:05:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Why don't you like your roommate?

1:05:38.680 --> 1:05:40.320
<v Speaker 18>I think it's just that we're living in such a

1:05:40.360 --> 1:05:44.680
<v Speaker 18>small space and I'm not very social. It feels like,

1:05:45.520 --> 1:05:49.439
<v Speaker 18>you know, I'm forced to have social interactions constantly when

1:05:49.560 --> 1:05:50.880
<v Speaker 18>like I would rather not.

1:05:55.880 --> 1:05:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Is it that you don't like your roommate, or you

1:05:57.800 --> 1:05:59.120
<v Speaker 2>just don't like to socialize.

1:06:00.360 --> 1:06:04.439
<v Speaker 18>Maybe I just don't like to socialize, but maybe part

1:06:04.440 --> 1:06:08.040
<v Speaker 18>of it is because she does like to socialize, So

1:06:08.080 --> 1:06:11.560
<v Speaker 18>that makes me not like her as much.

1:06:14.960 --> 1:06:18.800
<v Speaker 2>Does she like? Do you think she gets upset with

1:06:18.840 --> 1:06:23.320
<v Speaker 2>you for not wanting to talk to her?

1:06:24.320 --> 1:06:27.720
<v Speaker 18>I don't know. I'm not you see, I'm not good

1:06:27.720 --> 1:06:30.240
<v Speaker 18>at I'm not good at reading peaceful.

1:06:31.040 --> 1:06:38.439
<v Speaker 2>You know, how did you two meet?

1:06:40.680 --> 1:06:43.720
<v Speaker 18>We were paired as roommates as I'm in college, and

1:06:43.720 --> 1:06:47.280
<v Speaker 18>we were paired as freshmen. We just like stuck together,

1:06:47.480 --> 1:06:51.720
<v Speaker 18>so you know, it was etfort. It was like she's

1:06:52.000 --> 1:06:54.160
<v Speaker 18>I mean, she is sort of one of my only friends,

1:06:54.240 --> 1:06:59.040
<v Speaker 18>but at college. But it just gets tiring, you know,

1:06:59.120 --> 1:07:02.400
<v Speaker 18>living with someone for so long, things little things start

1:07:02.440 --> 1:07:03.000
<v Speaker 18>to build up.

1:07:03.040 --> 1:07:09.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, Oh, tell me about these little things.

1:07:12.680 --> 1:07:16.280
<v Speaker 18>This is gonna sound sort of petty or maybe self centered.

1:07:16.280 --> 1:07:21.480
<v Speaker 18>But I started feeling like she's like copying me, Like

1:07:23.080 --> 1:07:25.160
<v Speaker 18>she used to only listen to one kind of music,

1:07:26.040 --> 1:07:28.480
<v Speaker 18>and then she started following on me on Spotify, and

1:07:28.520 --> 1:07:33.840
<v Speaker 18>now all she listens to is like my music. Is

1:07:33.840 --> 1:07:38.200
<v Speaker 18>that petty?

1:07:38.400 --> 1:07:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Is it petty of her to only listen to her music?

1:07:42.640 --> 1:07:42.880
<v Speaker 17>Or is.

1:07:45.000 --> 1:07:45.880
<v Speaker 18>Of me to care.

1:07:48.520 --> 1:07:49.480
<v Speaker 2>Why do you care?

1:07:52.520 --> 1:07:56.160
<v Speaker 18>Maybe it's a bit of a maybe it's a bit

1:07:56.200 --> 1:08:02.040
<v Speaker 18>of a you know, hipster superiority kind of thing that

1:08:02.080 --> 1:08:06.520
<v Speaker 18>I need to work myself, work on myself to deal with.

1:08:07.560 --> 1:08:10.520
<v Speaker 18>But I do, I feel like I have all these

1:08:10.560 --> 1:08:13.480
<v Speaker 18>like eclectic music, and she used to listen to like

1:08:13.640 --> 1:08:15.920
<v Speaker 18>classic rock basically exclusively.

1:08:18.560 --> 1:08:21.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, do do you?

1:08:23.080 --> 1:08:23.280
<v Speaker 17>Well?

1:08:23.320 --> 1:08:29.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious why, you know, even if even if the idea,

1:08:30.040 --> 1:08:32.000
<v Speaker 2>even if the truth is that she did get it

1:08:32.040 --> 1:08:36.360
<v Speaker 2>from you, have you considered you know, viewing it, you know,

1:08:37.280 --> 1:08:40.160
<v Speaker 2>sort of more flattery, right.

1:08:40.840 --> 1:08:45.320
<v Speaker 18>Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, I have, I have. It's just,

1:08:45.479 --> 1:08:47.280
<v Speaker 18>you know, I think it's just one of those things

1:08:47.320 --> 1:08:50.559
<v Speaker 18>where when you live with someone, and especially now because

1:08:50.560 --> 1:08:53.800
<v Speaker 18>we don't like, we don't go anywhere ever, and I just,

1:08:53.960 --> 1:08:55.799
<v Speaker 18>you know, I hear in the shower and she's listening

1:08:55.800 --> 1:08:58.080
<v Speaker 18>to like the same three songs over and over. And

1:08:58.120 --> 1:09:02.920
<v Speaker 18>there's songs that I know that I like that I

1:09:03.040 --> 1:09:05.960
<v Speaker 18>kind of don't like anymore because she listens to them

1:09:06.000 --> 1:09:06.439
<v Speaker 18>so much.

1:09:07.880 --> 1:09:12.600
<v Speaker 2>Why why does her listening to them? Is it is

1:09:12.720 --> 1:09:16.880
<v Speaker 2>do you not like them? Because she started listening to them?

1:09:18.720 --> 1:09:20.720
<v Speaker 18>No, I mean, it's just from hearing them so much.

1:09:20.760 --> 1:09:22.440
<v Speaker 18>I guess.

1:09:25.120 --> 1:09:32.479
<v Speaker 2>I've never really understood why like people's people view an

1:09:32.640 --> 1:09:38.960
<v Speaker 2>art thing differently because of the other people that like

1:09:39.320 --> 1:09:39.880
<v Speaker 2>that thing.

1:09:42.800 --> 1:09:57.839
<v Speaker 18>Yeah, I see what you mean. Yeah, I guess I mean.

1:09:59.800 --> 1:09:59.840
<v Speaker 6>It.

1:10:00.360 --> 1:10:02.400
<v Speaker 18>I mean, but hearing the same thing over and over,

1:10:02.479 --> 1:10:05.840
<v Speaker 18>you know that's gonna bother anyone. I think, like I'll

1:10:05.920 --> 1:10:12.320
<v Speaker 18>ruin songs for myself from listening to them too many times.

1:10:27.720 --> 1:10:32.000
<v Speaker 2>What is your behavior like to your roommate? Do you

1:10:33.000 --> 1:10:37.800
<v Speaker 2>ignore her I'd christ to talk to you.

1:10:37.840 --> 1:10:42.840
<v Speaker 18>No, I don't ignore her. I'll say something, but I'll

1:10:42.880 --> 1:10:45.680
<v Speaker 18>try to say it in a way that indicates I

1:10:45.720 --> 1:10:49.000
<v Speaker 18>don't really want to talk right now, and right now

1:10:49.120 --> 1:10:52.519
<v Speaker 18>is most of the time like but that, I mean,

1:10:52.560 --> 1:10:54.040
<v Speaker 18>that's kind of how I am with a lot of

1:10:54.080 --> 1:10:58.559
<v Speaker 18>people actually, like, oh, what are you working on? And

1:10:58.600 --> 1:11:02.040
<v Speaker 18>I'll just like say what it is and then you

1:11:02.080 --> 1:11:02.880
<v Speaker 18>know nothing else.

1:11:05.240 --> 1:11:07.439
<v Speaker 2>Do you have a lot of friends or do you

1:11:07.479 --> 1:11:13.240
<v Speaker 2>have at least a small group of friends.

1:11:13.840 --> 1:11:14.120
<v Speaker 16>Yeah.

1:11:14.320 --> 1:11:17.680
<v Speaker 18>Most of them are from high school though, so I

1:11:17.720 --> 1:11:22.320
<v Speaker 18>don't see them very much anymore. But at college, I've

1:11:22.320 --> 1:11:25.720
<v Speaker 18>only made like two or three real friends.

1:11:27.800 --> 1:11:28.479
<v Speaker 6>Two or three is.

1:11:28.479 --> 1:11:31.840
<v Speaker 3>Pretty good, I think, So.

1:11:34.800 --> 1:11:36.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, I've never thought friendships should be measured

1:11:37.000 --> 1:11:44.800
<v Speaker 2>in uh quantity anyway, joined the rest of your college.

1:11:44.479 --> 1:11:49.599
<v Speaker 18>Experience, well, it's been kind of ruined. I'm about to graduate,

1:11:49.720 --> 1:11:53.519
<v Speaker 18>so like a big chunk of my time's been trashed.

1:11:53.600 --> 1:12:01.200
<v Speaker 2>Basically, what's next for you? Olivia?

1:12:01.360 --> 1:12:05.680
<v Speaker 18>Who knows? My parents I think want me to go

1:12:05.720 --> 1:12:08.600
<v Speaker 18>to some kind of grad school, but too late to

1:12:08.640 --> 1:12:10.200
<v Speaker 18>apply to that for next year, so I'll have to

1:12:10.240 --> 1:12:13.720
<v Speaker 18>at least take one gap year, which I'm looking forward to.

1:12:14.920 --> 1:12:16.240
<v Speaker 2>What are you going to do during the gap year?

1:12:18.600 --> 1:12:23.160
<v Speaker 18>I don't know, apply to some kind of internship or something.

1:12:24.439 --> 1:12:26.920
<v Speaker 18>I would like to travel somewhere.

1:12:27.720 --> 1:12:28.200
<v Speaker 8>I don't know.

1:12:31.720 --> 1:12:34.240
<v Speaker 18>I'm just sick of school, honestly, I just feel like

1:12:34.280 --> 1:12:35.280
<v Speaker 18>I need a break from it.

1:12:36.080 --> 1:12:39.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, school sucks. I'm very grateful that I never

1:12:39.960 --> 1:12:41.320
<v Speaker 2>have to go to school ever again.

1:12:43.840 --> 1:12:44.040
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

1:12:44.080 --> 1:12:46.080
<v Speaker 18>I mean I've always been good at it. I just

1:12:46.360 --> 1:12:48.479
<v Speaker 18>I'm just so worn out from it.

1:12:50.360 --> 1:12:50.880
<v Speaker 17>Well, I love it.

1:12:51.880 --> 1:12:54.280
<v Speaker 2>I wish you the best of luck and whatever endeavor

1:12:54.320 --> 1:12:55.439
<v Speaker 2>you decide to pursue next.

1:12:56.840 --> 1:12:59.920
<v Speaker 18>Thank you so much, Get go. I love you, of course.

1:13:00.040 --> 1:13:02.200
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate you, Olivia. I talk to you soon. Thank

1:13:02.240 --> 1:13:02.959
<v Speaker 2>you for sharing.

1:13:07.960 --> 1:13:10.080
<v Speaker 10>All From Megan.

1:13:12.920 --> 1:13:17.479
<v Speaker 9>Megan gag hi hi.

1:13:20.000 --> 1:13:25.559
<v Speaker 20>So I had to look up statue of limitations before

1:13:25.680 --> 1:13:28.160
<v Speaker 20>I talked, before I told you about my confession.

1:13:33.640 --> 1:13:35.559
<v Speaker 2>What are the statue of limitations?

1:13:36.240 --> 1:13:39.840
<v Speaker 20>Well, statue limitations is how long I have before I

1:13:39.880 --> 1:13:41.880
<v Speaker 20>could get in trouble for something, or before I can

1:13:41.920 --> 1:13:43.360
<v Speaker 20>no longer get in trouble for something.

1:13:44.439 --> 1:13:45.280
<v Speaker 2>How long has it been?

1:13:46.160 --> 1:13:47.680
<v Speaker 20>It's been twenty years.

1:13:49.600 --> 1:13:51.120
<v Speaker 2>What's been twenty years.

1:13:51.640 --> 1:13:56.439
<v Speaker 20>Since I had committed identity fraud?

1:13:59.479 --> 1:14:00.800
<v Speaker 2>Why did you can identity fraud?

1:14:02.000 --> 1:14:04.800
<v Speaker 20>Well, it wasn't like I made this big plan to

1:14:04.880 --> 1:14:07.640
<v Speaker 20>do it. I had some friends that did something stupid

1:14:08.479 --> 1:14:12.960
<v Speaker 20>and they stole like some chick's wallet when they were

1:14:12.960 --> 1:14:14.760
<v Speaker 20>helping her change her tire, and she was like, I'll

1:14:14.800 --> 1:14:18.439
<v Speaker 20>dry kits the whole long story. Nonetheless, we went to

1:14:18.479 --> 1:14:23.960
<v Speaker 20>the mall the next day and spent somebody's money and

1:14:24.000 --> 1:14:26.000
<v Speaker 20>I still felt guilty for it because it wasn't really

1:14:26.160 --> 1:14:30.160
<v Speaker 20>obviously mine. Excuse me, and all we got was like

1:14:30.360 --> 1:14:32.160
<v Speaker 20>stupid shit, Like went to the gap?

1:14:34.880 --> 1:14:35.840
<v Speaker 2>What did you get at the gap?

1:14:36.960 --> 1:14:42.000
<v Speaker 20>I got a really cute, like white sun dress. It's

1:14:42.040 --> 1:14:43.840
<v Speaker 20>weird that I can still remember that, probably because they

1:14:43.840 --> 1:14:45.000
<v Speaker 20>still feel guilty.

1:14:45.520 --> 1:14:48.320
<v Speaker 2>What's the most expensive thing you bought with this woman's

1:14:48.360 --> 1:14:50.080
<v Speaker 2>credit card was a.

1:14:50.040 --> 1:14:54.479
<v Speaker 20>Pair of Doc Martin boots that were like one hundred

1:14:54.479 --> 1:14:55.000
<v Speaker 20>and twenty bucks.

1:15:00.439 --> 1:15:02.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, what happened with all the rest of the stuff?

1:15:02.400 --> 1:15:03.439
<v Speaker 2>Did you ever give it back?

1:15:04.600 --> 1:15:04.800
<v Speaker 5>Well?

1:15:04.840 --> 1:15:06.640
<v Speaker 20>No, I don't even know who the person was. It

1:15:06.680 --> 1:15:09.400
<v Speaker 20>wasn't even in the town I lived in. My friend

1:15:09.400 --> 1:15:12.400
<v Speaker 20>and I had like gone over and visited some dudes,

1:15:12.920 --> 1:15:17.000
<v Speaker 20>and then they did that, and then we went to

1:15:17.080 --> 1:15:19.840
<v Speaker 20>a mall on their way back to transporting us home,

1:15:20.960 --> 1:15:22.720
<v Speaker 20>and so like I just had those boots for a

1:15:22.760 --> 1:15:25.639
<v Speaker 20>while and that dressed for a while and felt guilty,

1:15:26.960 --> 1:15:29.160
<v Speaker 20>and like the other people bought other stuff too, but

1:15:29.200 --> 1:15:30.720
<v Speaker 20>it was all just frivil of shit that you buy

1:15:30.720 --> 1:15:35.479
<v Speaker 20>when you're eighteen, stupid shit.

1:15:36.360 --> 1:15:43.680
<v Speaker 2>What was the sort of spectrum of feeling bad about it?

1:15:43.720 --> 1:15:48.960
<v Speaker 2>I assumed that in a group of friends spending another

1:15:48.960 --> 1:15:54.759
<v Speaker 2>person's credit card, there's probably one friend who like feels

1:15:54.720 --> 1:15:59.640
<v Speaker 2>extremely guilty about it, yeah, and another friend who is

1:15:59.760 --> 1:16:02.599
<v Speaker 2>so excited that they get to spend someone else's money,

1:16:02.880 --> 1:16:05.679
<v Speaker 2>and yeah, you know, sort of a spectra of people

1:16:05.680 --> 1:16:07.599
<v Speaker 2>in between. Is that accurate at all?

1:16:08.920 --> 1:16:11.720
<v Speaker 20>I would say probably. I think I was probably the

1:16:11.720 --> 1:16:14.559
<v Speaker 20>one that was more worried about like spending this for

1:16:14.680 --> 1:16:16.679
<v Speaker 20>you know, freaking out about, oh my gosh, what if

1:16:17.479 --> 1:16:21.320
<v Speaker 20>you know, like kind of secretly hoping that this woman

1:16:21.360 --> 1:16:24.439
<v Speaker 20>had already canceled them. They said she was shit, how

1:16:24.560 --> 1:16:26.439
<v Speaker 20>drunk when they ended up taking her wallet. That's a

1:16:27.479 --> 1:16:30.680
<v Speaker 20>other stupid story, but like I really felt bad about it,

1:16:31.280 --> 1:16:32.800
<v Speaker 20>and so to think about it, I think it probably

1:16:32.840 --> 1:16:35.960
<v Speaker 20>spent like three hundred bucks. And the dudes we were with,

1:16:36.240 --> 1:16:38.320
<v Speaker 20>they were the ones that were like super excited about,

1:16:38.320 --> 1:16:39.960
<v Speaker 20>you know, and it was back when they still had

1:16:39.960 --> 1:16:40.880
<v Speaker 20>sam Goodies and shit.

1:16:40.920 --> 1:16:42.520
<v Speaker 6>So they're buying like CDs.

1:16:42.880 --> 1:16:45.040
<v Speaker 2>What did the guys. What was the most expensive things

1:16:45.080 --> 1:16:45.679
<v Speaker 2>the guys bought?

1:16:46.080 --> 1:16:49.639
<v Speaker 20>Oh god, I can't even remember, like electronic shit, I'm

1:16:49.640 --> 1:16:53.040
<v Speaker 20>sure because we all just kind of split up with

1:16:53.280 --> 1:16:54.640
<v Speaker 20>our cards.

1:16:57.120 --> 1:16:58.360
<v Speaker 2>So how did this end? That you ever get the

1:16:58.360 --> 1:16:58.880
<v Speaker 2>cards back?

1:17:00.360 --> 1:17:04.120
<v Speaker 20>No, we actually like broke them into pieces, like little

1:17:04.160 --> 1:17:05.960
<v Speaker 20>tiny pieces and then threw them out the window down

1:17:05.960 --> 1:17:06.439
<v Speaker 20>the freeway.

1:17:07.800 --> 1:17:08.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

1:17:09.120 --> 1:17:12.760
<v Speaker 20>Yeah, it was twenty years ago. I still felt really bad.

1:17:14.280 --> 1:17:16.559
<v Speaker 2>Which freeway. Maybe someone will come along and blow them

1:17:16.560 --> 1:17:17.280
<v Speaker 2>back together.

1:17:18.479 --> 1:17:20.439
<v Speaker 20>Because the statue of delimitations is up.

1:17:21.600 --> 1:17:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, she's probably canceled them by now.

1:17:25.080 --> 1:17:26.120
<v Speaker 6>I'm gonna hope.

1:17:26.479 --> 1:17:29.719
<v Speaker 20>I mean, like they found this woman in a ditch,

1:17:30.800 --> 1:17:34.360
<v Speaker 20>like drunk as a skunk. Yeah, Like the dudes we

1:17:34.360 --> 1:17:37.679
<v Speaker 20>were with, they were out cruising around.

1:17:37.720 --> 1:17:38.000
<v Speaker 22>I don't know.

1:17:38.000 --> 1:17:39.280
<v Speaker 20>I think they were probably like going to the gas

1:17:39.320 --> 1:17:39.960
<v Speaker 20>station and get us.

1:17:40.000 --> 1:17:41.280
<v Speaker 6>We're finding someone to buy his beer.

1:17:41.320 --> 1:17:44.160
<v Speaker 20>We were all eighteen, and they rolled up on this

1:17:44.320 --> 1:17:46.600
<v Speaker 20>chick kind in the ditch because of weather, and so

1:17:46.680 --> 1:17:49.080
<v Speaker 20>they got out to help her, and she was just like,

1:17:49.960 --> 1:17:51.639
<v Speaker 20>I mean, she was trying to hand them like money

1:17:51.640 --> 1:17:53.559
<v Speaker 20>and stuff, and she's like, oh, I'm so sorry. Thanks

1:17:53.520 --> 1:17:55.120
<v Speaker 20>you're not telling you know, like doing the thanks for

1:17:55.200 --> 1:17:56.600
<v Speaker 20>not telling me what, Thanks for hoping me get my

1:17:56.640 --> 1:18:00.519
<v Speaker 20>car out so she could drive home. And then I

1:18:00.520 --> 1:18:03.519
<v Speaker 20>don't know what why they felt the need to just

1:18:03.560 --> 1:18:07.240
<v Speaker 20>take her wallet or wallet or whatever it was, you know,

1:18:07.320 --> 1:18:09.280
<v Speaker 20>like what in that moment, she was trying to be nice,

1:18:09.960 --> 1:18:12.040
<v Speaker 20>she was thankful with they. You know, I don't know,

1:18:12.080 --> 1:18:15.639
<v Speaker 20>I'm not a psychologists. I can't decide why they did that.

1:18:15.680 --> 1:18:18.840
<v Speaker 2>But wow, so they just kind of stole this drunk

1:18:18.880 --> 1:18:23.280
<v Speaker 2>woman's yeah, wallets and then let's drive home.

1:18:24.160 --> 1:18:30.280
<v Speaker 20>Yeah right, Wow, maybe that's the real issue.

1:18:31.000 --> 1:18:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Do you feel as though you've done enough in the

1:18:33.760 --> 1:18:36.360
<v Speaker 2>past twenty years to repent for your involvement in this.

1:18:37.280 --> 1:18:42.200
<v Speaker 20>Yes, I actually do, but it's weird to still feel guilty.

1:18:42.240 --> 1:18:46.840
<v Speaker 20>I like work in social services, you know, I do

1:18:47.000 --> 1:18:50.760
<v Speaker 20>all those kind of things, advocate, you know. I won't

1:18:50.800 --> 1:18:53.519
<v Speaker 20>go into that and get political. But I feel like

1:18:53.560 --> 1:18:56.000
<v Speaker 20>I've given back a lot in the work.

1:18:55.760 --> 1:18:58.080
<v Speaker 6>That I do, so.

1:18:59.479 --> 1:19:00.840
<v Speaker 20>But I still really guilty.

1:19:00.840 --> 1:19:01.800
<v Speaker 6>It's kind of weird.

1:19:03.000 --> 1:19:04.800
<v Speaker 20>Like I saw my husband, I was, I wonder if.

1:19:04.680 --> 1:19:05.519
<v Speaker 23>I should confess to that.

1:19:05.920 --> 1:19:06.720
<v Speaker 6>I appreciate that.

1:19:06.720 --> 1:19:06.960
<v Speaker 9>Thanks.

1:19:07.000 --> 1:19:07.280

<v Speaker 8>I bought it?

1:20:15.720 --> 1:20:18.280
<v Speaker 2>You bored you? Where'd you buy it from?

1:20:18.720 --> 1:20:20.240
<v Speaker 6>I'm Mexican restaurant down the street.

1:20:21.600 --> 1:20:24.000
<v Speaker 2>That's pretty good man. For a second, I thought you

1:20:24.000 --> 1:20:26.480
<v Speaker 2>were like the kind of dude that like makes enchiladas

1:20:26.479 --> 1:20:29.080
<v Speaker 2>for himself and I was about to be really impressed.

1:20:30.240 --> 1:20:31.320
<v Speaker 8>Oh no, I don't know how to go.

1:20:32.479 --> 1:20:34.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how to cook either. It's hard. It's

1:20:34.240 --> 1:20:35.000
<v Speaker 2>too hard.

1:20:35.840 --> 1:20:38.240
<v Speaker 6>It's too hard, too much, it chires too much energy.

1:20:39.960 --> 1:20:40.960
<v Speaker 2>Do you have a lot of energy?

1:20:44.320 --> 1:20:55.679
<v Speaker 6>It depends on the dad right now, Yeah, I guess.

1:20:55.479 --> 1:21:00.320
<v Speaker 16>So, h.

1:21:04.160 --> 1:21:04.599
<v Speaker 10>M hmm.

1:21:08.520 --> 1:21:09.400
<v Speaker 2>What's your confession?

1:21:10.040 --> 1:21:16.240
<v Speaker 6>So I was thinking about it while I was following you,

1:21:16.560 --> 1:21:21.559
<v Speaker 6>and I used to be a bully in middle school.

1:21:21.600 --> 1:21:32.040
<v Speaker 17>Actually used to be a bully.

1:21:33.720 --> 1:21:40.560
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I think about it sometimes. Or did you just random?

1:21:40.600 --> 1:21:43.360
<v Speaker 6>I was part of a group of friends that I'm

1:21:43.439 --> 1:21:46.960
<v Speaker 6>going to behave the best and they would occasionally make

1:21:47.040 --> 1:21:51.880
<v Speaker 6>fun of someone in our own group of friends. Now

1:21:51.920 --> 1:21:53.640
<v Speaker 6>that I set that out loud, actually they were not

1:21:54.000 --> 1:21:56.080
<v Speaker 6>friends because they were kind of passboards.

1:21:56.560 --> 1:22:00.320
<v Speaker 10>M m m hm hm.

1:22:01.800 --> 1:22:03.200
<v Speaker 2>At the end of this, so you're going to reveal

1:22:03.280 --> 1:22:04.839
<v Speaker 2>that you were the one that got bullied.

1:22:06.240 --> 1:22:10.639
<v Speaker 6>No, I actually bullied someone with the other people.

1:22:14.479 --> 1:22:22.360
<v Speaker 2>What were your transgressions? Shout guys, sorry, what were your transgressions?

1:22:25.360 --> 1:22:28.120
<v Speaker 2>Well not what were your transgressions?

1:22:30.320 --> 1:22:31.400
<v Speaker 6>What's transgression?

1:22:32.840 --> 1:22:34.400
<v Speaker 2>What were your transgressions?

1:22:35.720 --> 1:22:36.040
<v Speaker 9>Oh?

1:22:36.320 --> 1:22:36.799
<v Speaker 5>Sorry.

1:22:38.680 --> 1:22:43.400
<v Speaker 6>They would just make fun of people, and in order

1:22:43.439 --> 1:22:49.599
<v Speaker 6>to shuit in, I would as well.

1:22:51.600 --> 1:22:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Tell me about this guy that you made fun of.

1:22:55.160 --> 1:22:55.760
<v Speaker 7>Uh So.

1:22:58.120 --> 1:23:00.840
<v Speaker 6>I don't want to say his name. Let's call him

1:23:00.920 --> 1:23:01.479
<v Speaker 6>John Doe.

1:23:03.320 --> 1:23:05.040
<v Speaker 2>He said, what is called what? John Delle?

1:23:06.360 --> 1:23:07.360
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

1:23:07.720 --> 1:23:09.800
<v Speaker 2>You say John Doe?

1:23:10.080 --> 1:23:10.240
<v Speaker 26>Yeah?

1:23:10.280 --> 1:23:11.200
<v Speaker 6>I don't want to say his name.

1:23:12.280 --> 1:23:16.040
<v Speaker 17>Oh okay.

1:23:16.080 --> 1:23:19.640
<v Speaker 6>But one thing that always stands out to me is

1:23:19.680 --> 1:23:24.800
<v Speaker 6>that one time he shaved his head and came back

1:23:24.840 --> 1:23:28.320
<v Speaker 6>to school and we were sitting at lunch table and

1:23:29.560 --> 1:23:34.000
<v Speaker 6>we all started making fun of him, say he had cancers.

1:23:34.520 --> 1:23:37.880
<v Speaker 6>I was pretty fucked up to say, but again, just

1:23:37.920 --> 1:23:39.680
<v Speaker 6>trying to fit in, I went along with it.

1:23:49.280 --> 1:23:50.519
<v Speaker 2>When's the last time you saw John?

1:23:53.520 --> 1:23:53.680
<v Speaker 10>Oh?

1:23:54.560 --> 1:23:55.360
<v Speaker 6>Twenty ten?

1:23:57.280 --> 1:23:57.880
<v Speaker 2>Twenty ten?

1:23:59.360 --> 1:24:04.599
<v Speaker 6>Because I was tenth grade and I moved away.

1:24:05.400 --> 1:24:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Do you know where John is now? Do you know

1:24:06.760 --> 1:24:07.240
<v Speaker 2>what he's doing?

1:24:09.439 --> 1:24:13.000
<v Speaker 6>I randomly look him up on Facebook and Instagram. He

1:24:13.080 --> 1:24:14.920
<v Speaker 6>doesn't post much, but who's under?

1:24:16.320 --> 1:24:18.000
<v Speaker 2>How's he doing? From what you can tell?

1:24:20.080 --> 1:24:22.920
<v Speaker 6>From what I can tell, he's doing all right. It's

1:24:22.920 --> 1:24:25.080
<v Speaker 6>hard to tell them because I'm not his bridal Facebook

1:24:25.400 --> 1:24:29.400
<v Speaker 6>or Instagram. I just view whatever is public.

1:24:34.800 --> 1:24:38.240
<v Speaker 2>What about the other people, These these people that you

1:24:38.280 --> 1:24:40.439
<v Speaker 2>were friends with that you were that you were making

1:24:40.439 --> 1:24:42.479
<v Speaker 2>fun of this kid with. And how many other guys

1:24:42.479 --> 1:24:43.280
<v Speaker 2>were there in this group?

1:24:44.920 --> 1:24:53.280
<v Speaker 6>Mm? Two in total, including me and John Doe the

1:24:53.360 --> 1:24:54.960
<v Speaker 6>sixth six?

1:24:56.160 --> 1:24:58.000
<v Speaker 2>Uh. Do you keep me contact with any of these guys?

1:24:59.600 --> 1:25:08.439
<v Speaker 6>I don't because my parents knew how how mischievous. I

1:25:08.479 --> 1:25:12.160
<v Speaker 6>can't say how bad did he and they actually didn't

1:25:12.240 --> 1:25:15.040
<v Speaker 6>like me hanging out with them, so as soon as

1:25:15.080 --> 1:25:18.320
<v Speaker 6>we moved away, it was hard to go back to

1:25:18.360 --> 1:25:20.320
<v Speaker 6>that town to visit and hang out with them and

1:25:20.400 --> 1:25:20.800
<v Speaker 6>went on.

1:25:24.000 --> 1:25:26.960
<v Speaker 2>Have you coped in contact with any of them online?

1:25:29.800 --> 1:25:35.320
<v Speaker 6>No? Sometimes I feel them, like like my Instagram stories

1:25:35.439 --> 1:25:40.719
<v Speaker 6>or Instagram posts, But other than that, I don't really

1:25:40.720 --> 1:25:45.200
<v Speaker 6>talk to them.

1:25:45.520 --> 1:25:48.840
<v Speaker 2>I'll ask you what I asked. I forget her name.

1:25:48.960 --> 1:25:56.680
<v Speaker 2>But do you feel like you've personally done enough? You know,

1:25:56.720 --> 1:25:57.839
<v Speaker 2>by your own definition?

1:25:58.800 --> 1:25:58.960
<v Speaker 4>Two?

1:26:00.320 --> 1:26:04.160
<v Speaker 2>Repent for this in the time.

1:26:04.040 --> 1:26:09.720
<v Speaker 6>Since it happened, No, I don't think so. I never

1:26:09.760 --> 1:26:14.479
<v Speaker 6>talked to them ever again. And it's really weird. It's

1:26:14.600 --> 1:26:20.519
<v Speaker 6>just I randomly start thinking about him, and I feel

1:26:20.520 --> 1:26:23.240
<v Speaker 6>like shit when I do, because I knew it was

1:26:23.320 --> 1:26:28.360
<v Speaker 6>wrong to do, but I still did it.

1:26:28.400 --> 1:26:33.280
<v Speaker 2>Is repenting for this appealing or interesting or a goal

1:26:33.320 --> 1:26:36.519
<v Speaker 2>of yours in any way, shape or form.

1:26:36.840 --> 1:26:38.880
<v Speaker 6>I would love to, but I've never had the nerve

1:26:39.120 --> 1:26:39.360
<v Speaker 6>to do.

1:26:39.520 --> 1:26:45.960
<v Speaker 2>So what about in ways that don't involve direct contact

1:26:46.000 --> 1:26:46.559
<v Speaker 2>with the person?

1:26:50.920 --> 1:26:54.719
<v Speaker 6>I wouldn't even know what. I wouldn't fell like asking

1:26:54.760 --> 1:26:56.880
<v Speaker 6>someone else to say that I'm sorry.

1:26:58.240 --> 1:27:03.120
<v Speaker 2>No, just like h I don't know giving someone else

1:27:03.160 --> 1:27:03.599
<v Speaker 2>at the dollar.

1:27:08.360 --> 1:27:12.760
<v Speaker 6>You know what's funny, I'm actually actually working in the

1:27:12.800 --> 1:27:18.040
<v Speaker 6>medical field and I work with cancer vision now, and

1:27:18.120 --> 1:27:20.720
<v Speaker 6>I don't know if, like sub consciously I made that

1:27:20.800 --> 1:27:22.559
<v Speaker 6>decision or or what.

1:27:27.280 --> 1:27:31.400
<v Speaker 2>There it is. You think that that could be a

1:27:31.400 --> 1:27:32.240
<v Speaker 2>form of repentance.

1:27:35.520 --> 1:27:41.760

<v Speaker 9>Or did I think she's just had done if this happened,

1:30:14.960 --> 1:30:18.479
<v Speaker 9>but she donated three hundred thousand dollars to rally at

1:30:18.479 --> 1:30:24.320
<v Speaker 9>Capitol Hill and in uh, we're in pretty hot water

1:30:24.360 --> 1:30:27.920
<v Speaker 9>about it because then publics went on Twitter and said like, oh,

1:30:27.960 --> 1:30:30.960
<v Speaker 9>she doesn't represent you know what we think. But you know,

1:30:31.760 --> 1:30:33.519
<v Speaker 9>one of our biggest things is giving back to the community.

1:30:33.560 --> 1:30:37.519
<v Speaker 9>And so now that where I'm at is like, how

1:30:37.560 --> 1:30:39.559
<v Speaker 9>does that not represent us? If that's our whole thing

1:30:39.640 --> 1:30:41.960
<v Speaker 9>is giving back and helping other people, Like, how does

1:30:41.960 --> 1:30:43.080
<v Speaker 9>that not represent us?

1:30:43.640 --> 1:30:46.439
<v Speaker 2>So are now you as an individual that works for

1:30:46.520 --> 1:30:49.479
<v Speaker 2>this company, you know, because it's one I feel like

1:30:49.520 --> 1:30:51.720
<v Speaker 2>this this is it's one thing. I mean, everyone's you know,

1:30:52.320 --> 1:30:53.840
<v Speaker 2>has the thing where like, Okay, I'm not going to

1:30:53.880 --> 1:30:57.920
<v Speaker 2>support this company as a consumer anymore, you know, because

1:30:58.040 --> 1:31:01.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't agree with, you know, any things that they've done.

1:31:01.320 --> 1:31:03.519
<v Speaker 2>But for you, when it's your livelihood, you know, does

1:31:03.560 --> 1:31:06.519
<v Speaker 2>that add an extra layer of conflict when you're trying to,

1:31:07.680 --> 1:31:10.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, stand up for what you believe the fact

1:31:10.439 --> 1:31:11.960
<v Speaker 2>that it's it's your livelihood.

1:31:12.760 --> 1:31:14.719
<v Speaker 9>At this point, I don't care if I get fired

1:31:14.760 --> 1:31:16.960
<v Speaker 9>because I know a lot of different business owners on

1:31:17.040 --> 1:31:18.760
<v Speaker 9>the area where to the point where I'm just like,

1:31:19.439 --> 1:31:21.559
<v Speaker 9>if I get fired, I have other people lying like

1:31:21.760 --> 1:31:23.920
<v Speaker 9>that would that that are ready to hire me and

1:31:23.960 --> 1:31:26.720
<v Speaker 9>get me into their businesses. I'm not too scared of it,

1:31:27.320 --> 1:31:31.120
<v Speaker 9>you know, you know, not to mention that they also

1:31:31.200 --> 1:31:32.960
<v Speaker 9>try to use them all my coworkers as like a

1:31:33.000 --> 1:31:35.519
<v Speaker 9>poster child. He's a grown man with caine, he has

1:31:35.520 --> 1:31:38.439
<v Speaker 9>circle quality, and they tried to use some as like

1:31:37.479 --> 1:31:40.280
<v Speaker 9>a like a example of how good they are to

1:31:40.280 --> 1:31:42.800
<v Speaker 9>people with special needs, when he is even really like

1:31:42.920 --> 1:31:44.880
<v Speaker 9>disabled or anything like that. I mean, he can make

1:31:44.920 --> 1:31:47.679
<v Speaker 9>his own decisions and like he'd had to advocate for

1:31:47.800 --> 1:31:53.080
<v Speaker 9>his own needs too, And so it's just it's it's

1:31:53.200 --> 1:31:54.120

<v Speaker 2>Bronson?

1:34:34.560 --> 1:34:34.760
<v Speaker 5>Dode?

1:34:34.760 --> 1:34:35.360
<v Speaker 8>All right? How are you?

1:34:36.960 --> 1:34:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Bronson? What do you think of the kindness economy? I?

1:34:40.920 --> 1:34:47.400
<v Speaker 23>Uh, I'm kind of on your side, because it seems

1:34:47.439 --> 1:34:50.760
<v Speaker 23>like after a time, it does just turn back into a.

1:34:50.800 --> 1:34:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Regular economy, right, turns back into regular economy immediately.

1:34:57.000 --> 1:34:58.280
<v Speaker 17>Sorry what I said?

1:34:58.280 --> 1:35:02.280
<v Speaker 2>It turns back into a regular economy immediate, Yeah, yeah, exactly.

1:35:04.960 --> 1:35:10.040
<v Speaker 2>And also I believe Look, do I think it's good

1:35:10.040 --> 1:35:12.880
<v Speaker 2>to be an asshole? I don't know, but I believe

1:35:12.880 --> 1:35:15.720
<v Speaker 2>in the freedom to be one. What if I want

1:35:15.760 --> 1:35:17.439
<v Speaker 2>to just go around being a jerk to everyone?

1:35:20.000 --> 1:35:25.200
<v Speaker 23>I mean, you're prerogative, but like I think I think

1:35:25.200 --> 1:35:29.880
<v Speaker 23>there's a balance, you know, Like I wouldn't want to

1:35:29.880 --> 1:35:36.320
<v Speaker 23>be a jerk to everybody, but I think it's inevitable

1:35:36.360 --> 1:35:38.120
<v Speaker 23>sometimes to be a jerk.

1:35:38.000 --> 1:35:38.719
<v Speaker 5>To some people.

1:35:40.280 --> 1:35:41.759
<v Speaker 2>Do you believe that you're a good person?

1:35:44.960 --> 1:35:45.880
<v Speaker 23>A big question, man.

1:35:48.120 --> 1:35:48.719
<v Speaker 5>I think.

1:35:51.160 --> 1:35:56.519
<v Speaker 23>Generally speaking, I'm a pretty decent guy. I wouldn't say

1:35:56.520 --> 1:36:02.920
<v Speaker 23>I'm perfect, but I'm all right guy.

1:36:04.680 --> 1:36:08.280
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm. What do you think money is.

1:36:12.040 --> 1:36:19.040
<v Speaker 23>The kind of like a philosopher's stone in a way

1:36:19.880 --> 1:36:24.080
<v Speaker 23>from where like, yeah, well I'm not sure what the

1:36:24.080 --> 1:36:27.479
<v Speaker 23>Harry Potter one did, but like the thing that turns

1:36:28.360 --> 1:36:32.200
<v Speaker 23>lead into gold, like it turns one thing into another thing,

1:36:33.000 --> 1:36:38.160
<v Speaker 23>you know what I mean. Like it's uh, I think, like, man,

1:36:38.200 --> 1:36:40.679
<v Speaker 23>I used to say I love money, but I don't

1:36:40.680 --> 1:36:44.040
<v Speaker 23>think that's true. I think I love what money can do,

1:36:44.800 --> 1:36:48.559
<v Speaker 23>which is I think in a lot of ways, it

1:36:49.400 --> 1:36:56.120
<v Speaker 23>can give you freedom where you're not you know, grinding

1:36:57.000 --> 1:37:01.400
<v Speaker 23>to pay rent or you know, buy buy food or whatever.

1:37:02.600 --> 1:37:06.360
<v Speaker 23>But like it's a it's a bit of like a

1:37:06.400 --> 1:37:08.800
<v Speaker 23>double edged sword. After a while, like I think it

1:37:08.840 --> 1:37:14.240
<v Speaker 23>can get to the point where, like is the fanatical

1:37:14.400 --> 1:37:19.559
<v Speaker 23>pursuit of freedom that freeing.

1:37:24.360 --> 1:37:25.559
<v Speaker 2>What what do you do for a living?

1:37:27.080 --> 1:37:29.400
<v Speaker 23>I I am in sales.

1:37:31.080 --> 1:37:33.360
<v Speaker 2>M hmm, what do you see?

1:37:35.280 --> 1:37:38.720
<v Speaker 23>I sell GPS for.

1:37:39.000 --> 1:37:40.960
<v Speaker 2>H you sell GPS?

1:37:41.760 --> 1:37:44.719
<v Speaker 23>Yeah? I actually might be quitting soon.

1:37:45.200 --> 1:37:46.760
<v Speaker 8>I'm so excited.

1:37:46.960 --> 1:37:47.160
<v Speaker 17>Yeah.

1:37:47.240 --> 1:37:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Did you hate selling GPS? I?

1:37:50.439 --> 1:37:54.439
<v Speaker 23>No, it's I it was. The job itself was pretty fine.

1:37:55.439 --> 1:38:01.240
<v Speaker 23>I was pretty good at it. But uh, I worked

1:38:01.240 --> 1:38:04.479
<v Speaker 23>for some people I'm not super fond of. I thought

1:38:04.520 --> 1:38:10.679
<v Speaker 23>they did unethical things in the name of money.

1:38:12.760 --> 1:38:13.280
<v Speaker 2>What did they do?

1:38:15.960 --> 1:38:16.280
<v Speaker 12>Well?

1:38:17.479 --> 1:38:20.479
<v Speaker 23>Not to get too much into the weeds here, but

1:38:22.760 --> 1:38:32.799
<v Speaker 23>basically my entire department except for me, was given a

1:38:32.840 --> 1:38:36.479
<v Speaker 23>impossible quota to hit and told if they didn't hit

1:38:36.520 --> 1:38:40.559
<v Speaker 23>that quota they would be fired. And then a week

1:38:40.640 --> 1:38:44.800
<v Speaker 23>before the dude ate, they just fired them anyway, which

1:38:44.840 --> 1:38:48.040
<v Speaker 23>is like, you know, you gotta do what you gotta

1:38:48.080 --> 1:38:53.559
<v Speaker 23>do dollars and cents, but con to like not even

1:38:53.560 --> 1:38:57.880
<v Speaker 23>give someone the chance to hit the mark I thought

1:38:58.040 --> 1:39:01.200
<v Speaker 23>was not ethical.

1:39:02.080 --> 1:39:05.040
<v Speaker 2>So they in advance. They knew in advance that they

1:39:05.040 --> 1:39:07.000
<v Speaker 2>were going to have to fire these people anyway, so

1:39:07.040 --> 1:39:09.479
<v Speaker 2>their plan was always to fire them a week before

1:39:09.520 --> 1:39:11.320
<v Speaker 2>the quota deadline.

1:39:11.760 --> 1:39:14.760
<v Speaker 23>I think so, Yeah, I definitely think that was the case.

1:39:15.520 --> 1:39:20.720
<v Speaker 23>And I don't know if you're a Christmas character, but

1:39:22.479 --> 1:39:25.280
<v Speaker 23>I thought there was this whole quota came out like

1:39:25.320 --> 1:39:27.559
<v Speaker 23>a week before Christmas, which I think is a rough

1:39:27.600 --> 1:39:31.120
<v Speaker 23>time to tell someone that your job is on the

1:39:31.160 --> 1:39:37.120
<v Speaker 23>line for sure. So yeah, I don't know, man. They

1:39:39.160 --> 1:39:41.800
<v Speaker 23>Actually I was calling you a Monday, trying to get

1:39:41.840 --> 1:39:44.000
<v Speaker 23>in to talk about this because I'm very conflicted about

1:39:44.000 --> 1:39:44.759
<v Speaker 23>this whole situation.

1:39:45.280 --> 1:39:49.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh please, Yes, what's the source of Well, I guess,

1:39:49.479 --> 1:39:52.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean was the what's the conflict about whether or

1:39:52.280 --> 1:39:53.040
<v Speaker 2>not to stay there?

1:39:55.360 --> 1:40:02.719
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, because I was They've offered me a promotion, and yeah,

1:40:02.760 --> 1:40:05.719
<v Speaker 23>and I think I stand to make a good amount

1:40:05.760 --> 1:40:12.360
<v Speaker 23>of money and like, I've never made good money in

1:40:12.400 --> 1:40:17.120
<v Speaker 23>my life and now I'm being offered like more money

1:40:17.160 --> 1:40:21.479
<v Speaker 23>than I thought a person with my skill set could make.

1:40:22.920 --> 1:40:25.639
<v Speaker 23>But also at the same time, I've come to realize

1:40:25.720 --> 1:40:31.479
<v Speaker 23>this is like a morally ambiguous place to be. And

1:40:32.160 --> 1:40:34.800
<v Speaker 23>as a person who's always said he's not motivated by

1:40:34.880 --> 1:40:37.240
<v Speaker 23>money very much, it feels in a way like the

1:40:37.360 --> 1:40:39.800
<v Speaker 23>universe saying are you sure about that?

1:40:40.880 --> 1:40:41.080
<v Speaker 8>Right?

1:40:41.360 --> 1:40:47.719
<v Speaker 2>Like, so, I mean we sort of started this story

1:40:47.760 --> 1:40:49.839
<v Speaker 2>with the end of it you ended up quitting, right.

1:40:50.920 --> 1:40:52.160
<v Speaker 23>I haven't quit yet.

1:40:52.400 --> 1:40:55.240
<v Speaker 2>I okay, So is it still in the air or

1:40:55.439 --> 1:40:56.120
<v Speaker 2>you've decided.

1:40:58.120 --> 1:41:01.800
<v Speaker 23>I'm waiting to hear back about another job, and if

1:41:01.840 --> 1:41:04.240
<v Speaker 23>I get that, probate quitting.

1:41:04.400 --> 1:41:07.320
<v Speaker 2>But is the other job for significantly less money?

1:41:08.200 --> 1:41:09.840
<v Speaker 8>Oh you better believe it, buddy.

1:41:12.360 --> 1:41:14.439
<v Speaker 2>Now is making good You said that you've never been

1:41:14.479 --> 1:41:16.800
<v Speaker 2>driven by money, so making good money has never been

1:41:16.840 --> 1:41:19.240
<v Speaker 2>a thing that's been that important to you anyway from

1:41:19.280 --> 1:41:19.959
<v Speaker 2>what I understand.

1:41:22.040 --> 1:41:25.160
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, like making I'd like to make decent money, but

1:41:25.240 --> 1:41:27.320
<v Speaker 23>I don't need to. I don't need a house with

1:41:27.400 --> 1:41:29.040
<v Speaker 23>a wall. You know what I'm saying.

1:41:29.320 --> 1:41:30.280
<v Speaker 2>The house with a wall.

1:41:31.400 --> 1:41:34.280
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, like a big, big you know, l a house

1:41:34.320 --> 1:41:36.320
<v Speaker 23>with a wall around it and the gate wall.

1:41:36.360 --> 1:41:40.040
<v Speaker 2>Houses have walls. Oh you made a wall like out

1:41:40.040 --> 1:41:40.639
<v Speaker 2>in front of the.

1:41:40.600 --> 1:41:42.200
<v Speaker 8>House around the house?

1:41:42.280 --> 1:41:42.439
<v Speaker 11>Yeah?

1:41:42.479 --> 1:41:44.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, okay, I thought you were talking about walls

1:41:44.320 --> 1:41:45.680
<v Speaker 2>in the house because you need that.

1:41:46.960 --> 1:41:48.760
<v Speaker 8>No, yeah, it's prereconsent.

1:41:48.800 --> 1:41:49.920
<v Speaker 23>I need like at least four of those.

1:41:50.520 --> 1:41:53.720
<v Speaker 2>So you're not driven by money. So if you're not

1:41:53.800 --> 1:41:56.240
<v Speaker 2>driven by money, what, let me ask you? What do

1:41:56.280 --> 1:41:58.640
<v Speaker 2>what does drive you? What do you what do you

1:41:59.080 --> 1:42:01.400
<v Speaker 2>value in its place?

1:42:04.160 --> 1:42:04.960
<v Speaker 23>It's a good question.

1:42:06.040 --> 1:42:06.760
<v Speaker 3>I think.

1:42:11.479 --> 1:42:15.840
<v Speaker 23>I think you know this, that kind of economy guy

1:42:15.920 --> 1:42:19.000
<v Speaker 23>is gonna love this. I think I generally want to

1:42:19.080 --> 1:42:24.760
<v Speaker 23>help people or do something that like I'll put it

1:42:24.760 --> 1:42:27.559
<v Speaker 23>to you this way, when I when I make a

1:42:27.600 --> 1:42:30.080
<v Speaker 23>sales call to someone, I call them and I say, hey,

1:42:30.120 --> 1:42:33.639
<v Speaker 23>I'm a GPS man. Do you need GPS? And most

1:42:33.680 --> 1:42:35.960
<v Speaker 23>of the time they're like, no, never call me again.

1:42:36.360 --> 1:42:40.360
<v Speaker 23>But sometimes they say, man, I'm so glad you called,

1:42:40.560 --> 1:42:43.559
<v Speaker 23>like I'm looking for this, and that that is worth

1:42:43.600 --> 1:42:47.679
<v Speaker 23>more than anything like that call pays more than any

1:42:47.720 --> 1:42:48.639
<v Speaker 23>other call I could make.

1:42:48.920 --> 1:42:53.400
<v Speaker 2>For sure, for sure, that is a good feeling when

1:42:53.800 --> 1:42:56.280
<v Speaker 2>when someone needs something and you're able to give it

1:42:56.320 --> 1:42:58.679
<v Speaker 2>to them.

1:42:58.800 --> 1:43:04.600
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, yeah, exactly, man. Like you know, if I have

1:43:04.800 --> 1:43:10.640
<v Speaker 23>the bread that someone wants, I'm happy to. Like, I know,

1:43:10.760 --> 1:43:14.040
<v Speaker 23>the guy who supplies the bread for me to distribute

1:43:14.040 --> 1:43:17.280
<v Speaker 23>to people will not accept kindness for it, but I'm

1:43:17.320 --> 1:43:22.320
<v Speaker 23>happy to, you know, take the money, pass it into

1:43:22.320 --> 1:43:24.880
<v Speaker 23>the next hand, and give the guy the bread. And

1:43:24.960 --> 1:43:27.679
<v Speaker 23>I think at the end of the day, like everybody wins.

1:43:28.000 --> 1:43:30.160
<v Speaker 23>The people who made the bread are happy to have

1:43:30.200 --> 1:43:33.240
<v Speaker 23>the money. The guy who bought the bread is happy

1:43:33.240 --> 1:43:36.960
<v Speaker 23>to trade money for bread or GPS whatever it is.

1:43:41.720 --> 1:43:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Do you feel like this role the one that you're pursuing.

1:43:47.200 --> 1:43:50.559
<v Speaker 2>Which of the options when you were sort of weighing

1:43:50.720 --> 1:43:53.720
<v Speaker 2>whether to go to the new place or to get

1:43:53.760 --> 1:43:57.200
<v Speaker 2>promoted at the old place, which option do you feel

1:43:57.240 --> 1:43:59.920
<v Speaker 2>like afforded you the better opportunity to help people?

1:44:03.160 --> 1:44:13.160
<v Speaker 23>Hmmm, I would say probably roughly the same.

1:44:14.080 --> 1:44:15.240
<v Speaker 2>I think roughly the same.

1:44:16.640 --> 1:44:19.160
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, the new role in.

1:44:19.320 --> 1:44:26.160
<v Speaker 23>General, I think on a more granular level, I'm my

1:44:26.320 --> 1:44:29.800
<v Speaker 23>role would be exclusively helping people, but in a very

1:44:29.840 --> 1:44:34.400
<v Speaker 23>small way, whereas the other role is I have less

1:44:34.479 --> 1:44:40.439
<v Speaker 23>opportunity to genuinely help someone, but it's a much larger

1:44:43.160 --> 1:44:48.920
<v Speaker 23>amount of help I provide them.

1:44:48.960 --> 1:44:55.280
<v Speaker 2>So one role, you provide lots of people with a

1:44:55.360 --> 1:44:59.400
<v Speaker 2>smaller amount of help. On the other role, you provide

1:44:59.439 --> 1:45:01.800
<v Speaker 2>less people with a greater amount of help.

1:45:03.439 --> 1:45:04.160
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, exactly.

1:45:05.800 --> 1:45:08.519
<v Speaker 2>So if you view these two positions as equal in

1:45:08.600 --> 1:45:11.240
<v Speaker 2>terms of your ability, in terms of how they serve

1:45:12.400 --> 1:45:18.240
<v Speaker 2>you know what your true goal is? Then why does

1:45:18.280 --> 1:45:20.640
<v Speaker 2>it Why is it such a big conflict for you

1:45:20.720 --> 1:45:21.599
<v Speaker 2>which one to choose?

1:45:23.280 --> 1:45:31.840
<v Speaker 23>Because the current role is I'm I'm sort of implicitly

1:45:33.760 --> 1:45:38.439
<v Speaker 23>siding with people who did people I care about dirty,

1:45:38.960 --> 1:45:44.080
<v Speaker 23>you know what I mean? Like, so I feel like,

1:45:44.600 --> 1:45:44.880
<v Speaker 23>you know.

1:45:46.080 --> 1:45:46.720
<v Speaker 8>If I were to.

1:45:51.000 --> 1:45:52.840
<v Speaker 23>Come up with an example here, but like you know,

1:45:52.880 --> 1:45:57.200
<v Speaker 23>let's say your favorite your favorite athlete or a musician

1:45:57.720 --> 1:46:04.240
<v Speaker 23>turns out he like, yeah, sold a bunch of math

1:46:04.360 --> 1:46:07.439
<v Speaker 23>to orphans. You feel pretty bad about like buying his

1:46:07.560 --> 1:46:09.720
<v Speaker 23>CDs after that, Right, you'd be like, I don't know.

1:46:09.680 --> 1:46:13.040
<v Speaker 8>About that, Like, uh, it'll feel a little weird.

1:46:13.640 --> 1:46:15.040
<v Speaker 23>I think it's the same way like.

1:46:14.960 --> 1:46:17.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm Justin Bieber actually did that? You can look that up.

1:46:18.760 --> 1:46:23.200
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, I believe you to orphans.

1:46:23.880 --> 1:46:31.479
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Justin. You can google Justin Bieber orphan myths. It'll

1:46:31.520 --> 1:46:32.040
<v Speaker 2>come up.

1:46:33.760 --> 1:46:35.639
<v Speaker 5>Like first result or do I have to look?

1:46:40.200 --> 1:46:43.920
<v Speaker 2>I think what's important is that whatever you do choose,

1:46:44.000 --> 1:46:47.200
<v Speaker 2>what are you? Are you confident in the decision you've chosen?

1:46:47.479 --> 1:46:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Are you like gung ho down that pass? Because that's

1:46:51.000 --> 1:46:52.240
<v Speaker 2>the that's the that's the thing.

1:46:52.400 --> 1:46:52.600
<v Speaker 8>You know.

1:46:52.640 --> 1:46:56.519
<v Speaker 2>What I heard of someone say once about decision making

1:46:57.120 --> 1:47:00.719
<v Speaker 2>is that whether or not your decision is right decision,

1:47:01.120 --> 1:47:03.360
<v Speaker 2>you you actually have more control over that than you

1:47:03.400 --> 1:47:06.439
<v Speaker 2>think right, because whatever you choose, there is no right decision.

1:47:06.520 --> 1:47:09.439
<v Speaker 2>You choose something and then you make that the right decision,

1:47:10.520 --> 1:47:11.599
<v Speaker 2>If that makes any sense.

1:47:12.920 --> 1:47:16.240
<v Speaker 23>Yeah, definitely, I saw something kind of similar about that

1:47:16.280 --> 1:47:18.840
<v Speaker 23>where someone was talking about you're looking at a fruit

1:47:18.880 --> 1:47:20.960
<v Speaker 23>tree with a bunch of nice pieces of fruit on it,

1:47:21.160 --> 1:47:23.800
<v Speaker 23>and they got there deciding which piece of fruit to

1:47:24.000 --> 1:47:26.519
<v Speaker 23>take and over for time, oil the fruit out to

1:47:26.560 --> 1:47:30.599
<v Speaker 23>the ground. And you know, God, exactly exactly, man, So

1:47:30.800 --> 1:47:34.719
<v Speaker 23>I think you're absolutely right. It is more about making

1:47:34.720 --> 1:47:36.439
<v Speaker 23>a choice in committing What.

1:47:36.479 --> 1:47:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Did you say. Your name was.

1:47:39.120 --> 1:47:39.640
<v Speaker 8>Bronson?

1:47:40.400 --> 1:47:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Bronson? Well, Bronson? Man, you know, good good, good luck

1:47:43.240 --> 1:47:46.479
<v Speaker 2>to you in the future. And I appreciate you sharing

1:47:46.520 --> 1:47:47.320
<v Speaker 2>with us.

1:47:48.240 --> 1:47:51.160

<v Speaker 14>to do what you want, work when you want.

1:49:03.520 --> 1:49:06.600
<v Speaker 26>You know, have a boss or your own boss.

1:49:08.040 --> 1:49:13.960

<v Speaker 2>working for them, and you can just say exactly what

1:49:17.080 --> 1:49:19.880
<v Speaker 2>you said just now, exactly how you said it, and

1:49:19.920 --> 1:49:21.640

1:49:42.160 --> 1:49:43.760
<v Speaker 2>kind of cool. You get to make it like that,

1:49:43.800 --> 1:49:47.960
<v Speaker 2>I'd be like, I believe that that is what that

1:49:48.040 --> 1:49:51.360
<v Speaker 2>experience is like, as opposed to if you know it

1:49:51.400 --> 1:49:54.000
<v Speaker 2>was it was it was ultra upbeat or anything like that.

1:49:56.120 --> 1:49:57.759
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, and that's just the truth.

1:49:58.720 --> 1:49:59.040
<v Speaker 5>It is.

1:49:59.800 --> 1:50:00.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, what's your talent?

1:50:03.120 --> 1:50:06.640
<v Speaker 14>I breed fish.

1:50:06.760 --> 1:50:07.639
<v Speaker 2>How'd you get into that?

1:50:09.160 --> 1:50:09.479
<v Speaker 23>Well?

1:50:09.560 --> 1:50:13.040
<v Speaker 26>I started with a thirty five gallon tank and I

1:50:13.120 --> 1:50:16.120
<v Speaker 26>had fish in it, and then they had babies and

1:50:16.160 --> 1:50:18.120
<v Speaker 26>I was like, well, in no way. And then I

1:50:18.120 --> 1:50:21.200
<v Speaker 26>got a bigger tank, and then I got more fish,

1:50:21.600 --> 1:50:24.360
<v Speaker 26>specifically guppies, and.

1:50:24.520 --> 1:50:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Plecos plucos Yep, what is a pleco?

1:50:31.280 --> 1:50:35.280
<v Speaker 14>A pleco? It's like it's like the bottom feeder.

1:50:35.320 --> 1:50:38.760
<v Speaker 26>It sucks everything it gets big. They can be striped,

1:50:39.520 --> 1:50:41.680
<v Speaker 26>just the bottom feeder of the tank, and they're kind

1:50:41.680 --> 1:50:42.400
<v Speaker 26>of dope looking.

1:50:44.479 --> 1:50:46.120
<v Speaker 2>What do you do with the fish after you breathe them?

1:50:46.160 --> 1:50:46.840
<v Speaker 2>Do you sell them?

1:50:48.240 --> 1:50:48.639
<v Speaker 7>Nah?

1:50:48.920 --> 1:50:51.320
<v Speaker 26>I just either feed them to the catfish I have

1:50:52.000 --> 1:50:55.000
<v Speaker 26>the babies, or I leave them the tank from the girl.

1:50:56.520 --> 1:50:58.519
<v Speaker 2>So you have a separate How many different tanks do

1:50:58.560 --> 1:50:59.880
<v Speaker 2>you have?

1:51:00.080 --> 1:51:00.360
<v Speaker 12>Three?

1:51:01.000 --> 1:51:02.920
<v Speaker 2>So you got a predator tank and a prey tank.

1:51:05.360 --> 1:51:08.000
<v Speaker 14>Yeah, pretty much. I don't think of it like that, but.

1:51:08.120 --> 1:51:11.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's interesting. You don't really have to so you

1:51:11.920 --> 1:51:15.680
<v Speaker 2>have fuck, dude, that's like this This is like a

1:51:15.720 --> 1:51:18.640
<v Speaker 2>fish pyramid scheme of some kind because you don't have

1:51:18.680 --> 1:51:24.439
<v Speaker 2>to buy fish food because you have other fish that

1:51:24.560 --> 1:51:25.760
<v Speaker 2>are food.

1:51:26.479 --> 1:51:26.759
<v Speaker 5>Yep.

1:51:27.120 --> 1:51:30.400
<v Speaker 26>And I have plants, so everything like cleans itself. I

1:51:30.439 --> 1:51:32.800
<v Speaker 26>have shrimp that clean the plants, and the plants clean

1:51:32.880 --> 1:51:36.439
<v Speaker 26>the water, so everything's like I can't just leave it

1:51:37.240 --> 1:51:41.760
<v Speaker 26>and it works like by itself, like an ecosystem.

1:51:41.960 --> 1:51:43.880
<v Speaker 2>Does it make you feel like God?

1:51:50.880 --> 1:51:53.120
<v Speaker 26>I mean I control their lives, I control if they

1:51:53.160 --> 1:51:56.679
<v Speaker 26>eat I control if it's day or night. I control

1:51:56.720 --> 1:52:00.800
<v Speaker 26>the temperature, I control much water is in there tank.

1:52:01.600 --> 1:52:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Do you enjoy having that power?

1:52:04.720 --> 1:52:05.360
<v Speaker 14>I guess I do.

1:52:07.560 --> 1:52:09.360
<v Speaker 9>I do.

1:52:09.360 --> 1:52:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Do you feel like in general you you have like

1:52:12.960 --> 1:52:17.720
<v Speaker 2>a lack of power in your life that you make

1:52:17.840 --> 1:52:20.080
<v Speaker 2>up for with this power over the fish?

1:52:22.760 --> 1:52:23.120
<v Speaker 14>Maybe?

1:52:26.720 --> 1:52:27.160
<v Speaker 9>Maybe?

1:52:32.920 --> 1:52:36.439
<v Speaker 26>Do you think the fish are like like they mean

1:52:36.560 --> 1:52:40.240
<v Speaker 26>something else because of something else? Like the fish are.

1:52:42.720 --> 1:52:46.360
<v Speaker 10>Mm hmm, I.

1:52:46.360 --> 1:52:48.080
<v Speaker 14>Got coping mechanism for something.

1:52:49.720 --> 1:52:51.599
<v Speaker 2>Do you think they're a coping mechanism for something?

1:52:55.840 --> 1:52:59.679
<v Speaker 26>I think they're in an escape from reality. I think

1:52:59.720 --> 1:53:03.400
<v Speaker 26>when I with my fish and I'm feeding my fish,

1:53:03.479 --> 1:53:06.360
<v Speaker 26>I'm cleaning their tank. The only thing that's there, The

1:53:06.400 --> 1:53:09.160
<v Speaker 26>only thing I'm thinking about is me and my fish.

1:53:09.760 --> 1:53:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Yes exactly, but I yeah. I mean, look, that's not

1:53:14.720 --> 1:53:18.559
<v Speaker 2>that much different from fucking any other action that isn't

1:53:18.600 --> 1:53:22.640
<v Speaker 2>just kind of sitting and staring at the wall. You know,

1:53:23.320 --> 1:53:27.080
<v Speaker 2>right when you're with your fish, you're focused one.

1:53:28.160 --> 1:53:32.280
<v Speaker 26>Well, like looking at wall and looking at fish like

1:53:32.640 --> 1:53:38.160
<v Speaker 26>my fish like everything's different, they're different colors. You don't

1:53:38.200 --> 1:53:40.400
<v Speaker 26>know what's going to happen. Everything's random.

1:53:41.160 --> 1:53:51.160
<v Speaker 2>What do you feel like you're escaping from?

1:53:51.320 --> 1:53:52.320
<v Speaker 14>Probably taxes?

1:53:53.000 --> 1:53:57.559
<v Speaker 26>I'm very I don't know anything about that. That's my

1:53:57.600 --> 1:53:59.040
<v Speaker 26>biggest worry about right now.

1:54:00.120 --> 1:54:01.000
<v Speaker 14>I do door dash.

1:54:01.479 --> 1:54:03.680
<v Speaker 26>They don't tell me anything about taxes. All they did

1:54:03.760 --> 1:54:07.040
<v Speaker 26>was send me a paper the school like I'm in

1:54:07.120 --> 1:54:09.280
<v Speaker 26>high school, like senior year all that.

1:54:09.360 --> 1:54:09.920
<v Speaker 14>I'm eighteen.

1:54:10.000 --> 1:54:12.400
<v Speaker 26>By the way, I just about to put that out

1:54:12.439 --> 1:54:13.519
<v Speaker 26>there because I just said that.

1:54:14.560 --> 1:54:21.040
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, how much money did you make doing door

1:54:21.120 --> 1:54:24.120
<v Speaker 2>dash in twenty twenty?

1:54:24.320 --> 1:54:28.639
<v Speaker 26>In twenty twenty, I started in November, so I made

1:54:28.920 --> 1:54:34.520
<v Speaker 26>in November and December I made like four hundred bucks.

1:54:36.360 --> 1:54:40.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't think you have to pay taxes in twenty twenty,

1:54:40.520 --> 1:54:41.680
<v Speaker 2>so you don't have to worry about that.

1:54:43.040 --> 1:54:43.480

1:58:15.600 --> 1:58:18.040
<v Speaker 2>You know, there's a trick to being really good at

1:58:18.040 --> 1:58:18.560
<v Speaker 2>what you do.

1:58:19.680 --> 1:58:21.800
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I believe it's Look.

1:58:22.240 --> 1:58:28.480
<v Speaker 2>Only well, here's the thing. Yeah, I feel like, well,

1:58:28.480 --> 1:58:32.040
<v Speaker 2>it depends. Like, look, if you look at what I

1:58:32.080 --> 1:58:35.120
<v Speaker 2>do as interviewing, like, of course I'm not the best

1:58:35.160 --> 1:58:37.280
<v Speaker 2>inn of course I'm not the best interviewer. But if

1:58:37.280 --> 1:58:41.080
<v Speaker 2>you look at what I'm doing as you know, doing myself,

1:58:41.520 --> 1:58:44.280
<v Speaker 2>of course I'm the best person at doing myself. But

1:58:44.440 --> 1:58:47.440
<v Speaker 2>like you know, if you're doing something that you would

1:58:47.440 --> 1:58:49.640
<v Speaker 2>describe as doing yourself, then if no one can, no

1:58:49.680 --> 1:58:51.400
<v Speaker 2>one can be better than you if you're doing yourself.

1:58:51.400 --> 1:58:53.760
<v Speaker 2>I know that that sounds fucking cheesy, by I do

1:58:53.880 --> 1:58:56.000
<v Speaker 2>believe in that, right, But you.

1:58:56.000 --> 1:58:59.280
<v Speaker 24>Found a way of being yourself. It's clearly very entertaining

1:58:59.320 --> 1:59:00.520
<v Speaker 24>to a large number people.

1:59:01.640 --> 1:59:03.120
<v Speaker 2>I found a good medium for it.

1:59:03.680 --> 1:59:04.560
<v Speaker 8>Mmm, you did.

1:59:04.760 --> 1:59:07.880
<v Speaker 24>It's a new medium, which is very cool. It's very

1:59:07.920 --> 1:59:09.480
<v Speaker 24>cool to live in the time when people can do

1:59:09.480 --> 1:59:09.960
<v Speaker 24>things like this.

1:59:10.760 --> 1:59:14.800
<v Speaker 2>It's hard. It's a lazy medium, streaming, it's a very

1:59:14.880 --> 1:59:16.120
<v Speaker 2>lazy medium.

1:59:16.240 --> 1:59:17.080
<v Speaker 10>It is.

1:59:17.400 --> 1:59:20.440
<v Speaker 2>It is laborious. But it's like before this, I used

1:59:20.480 --> 1:59:23.840
<v Speaker 2>to make movies. You know, it's so like making a

1:59:23.880 --> 1:59:28.480
<v Speaker 2>movie or like editing of it's so you it's the

1:59:28.520 --> 1:59:32.200
<v Speaker 2>opposite of this. Because this I'm here, I'm in lights

1:59:32.480 --> 1:59:37.520
<v Speaker 2>for three hours talking to people editing a movie or

1:59:37.520 --> 1:59:40.960
<v Speaker 2>a video is you're alone in the dark, you talk

1:59:41.080 --> 1:59:44.800
<v Speaker 2>to no one for days, but it's it's but you

1:59:44.840 --> 1:59:47.960
<v Speaker 2>come out with a more refined product than just sitting

1:59:47.960 --> 1:59:51.480
<v Speaker 2>around blabbing on a stream, right.

1:59:51.640 --> 1:59:54.000
<v Speaker 24>I It's that's very funny because I also do a

1:59:54.000 --> 1:59:56.080
<v Speaker 24>lot of editing, and it's like you're it's like you're

1:59:56.200 --> 1:59:59.280
<v Speaker 24>charging up for this one big blast, and you really

1:59:59.320 --> 2:00:02.040
<v Speaker 24>hope the blast is perfect and they're getting to do

2:00:02.120 --> 2:00:04.400
<v Speaker 24>something like this, and I do something a little bit similar.

2:00:04.440 --> 2:00:06.280
<v Speaker 24>But I don't mean to compare myself to the geck,

2:00:06.560 --> 2:00:08.720
<v Speaker 24>but it's kind of like, oh, I can say anything

2:00:08.880 --> 2:00:12.440
<v Speaker 24>and it's all equally valid, and if it's like not perfect,

2:00:12.560 --> 2:00:14.880
<v Speaker 24>it's nested in the middle of a three hour stream,

2:00:14.960 --> 2:00:17.160
<v Speaker 24>So who exactly you know exactly right?

2:00:17.800 --> 2:00:19.280
<v Speaker 9>Yeah? Yeah it man, you get.

2:00:19.360 --> 2:00:23.160
<v Speaker 2>And another thing is is like I feel like on

2:00:22.480 --> 2:00:28.200
<v Speaker 2>a on a stream, I think you're more raw because

2:00:28.960 --> 2:00:31.640
<v Speaker 2>in like a video or like a fucking tweet, even

2:00:32.040 --> 2:00:35.960
<v Speaker 2>anything that's pre written, it go, you type something or

2:00:35.960 --> 2:00:38.480
<v Speaker 2>you make something and then you're like, now that sounds stupid,

2:00:38.520 --> 2:00:39.880
<v Speaker 2>and you throw it out and you come back. But

2:00:39.920 --> 2:00:41.760
<v Speaker 2>now if I say something and I'm like and I

2:00:41.800 --> 2:00:44.080
<v Speaker 2>think right after I said it, I think that's stupid.

2:00:44.160 --> 2:00:45.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it's already out. I'm not time.

2:00:45.880 --> 2:00:48.880
<v Speaker 2>I can't attract it. So it's the most raw version

2:00:48.920 --> 2:00:51.440
<v Speaker 2>of your thoughts, and you.

2:00:51.400 --> 2:00:53.440
<v Speaker 24>Always have the option of going back and making a

2:00:53.480 --> 2:00:54.800
<v Speaker 24>more refined version of it.

2:00:55.160 --> 2:00:56.560
<v Speaker 17>Yes, but you don't have to.

2:00:57.160 --> 2:00:58.160
<v Speaker 2>It's true, that's true.

2:00:58.400 --> 2:00:59.080
<v Speaker 24>I never do.

2:00:59.800 --> 2:01:01.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, what is this thing that you do that you

2:01:01.960 --> 2:01:04.680
<v Speaker 2>were saying? Is similar? Do do do you stream?

2:01:05.160 --> 2:01:05.839
<v Speaker 9>I do stream?

2:01:05.960 --> 2:01:10.920
<v Speaker 24>I stream with a character, and I don't usually talk

2:01:10.960 --> 2:01:12.760
<v Speaker 24>about it, but I might as well, because.

2:01:12.520 --> 2:01:15.800
<v Speaker 2>You seem to stream.

2:01:14.400 --> 2:01:17.800
<v Speaker 24>Streaming as a character, and uh, you get the character?

2:01:17.880 --> 2:01:18.920
<v Speaker 8>Is it's I pretend to be.

2:01:18.840 --> 2:01:21.560
<v Speaker 24>A German Man and I like play the song and

2:01:21.800 --> 2:01:23.480
<v Speaker 24>I do it on here and it's a fun time.

2:01:23.920 --> 2:01:29.160
<v Speaker 2>You pretend to be a German Man on our pet. Yes, Yes,

2:01:29.760 --> 2:01:32.960
<v Speaker 2>his name Himie Wilhelm, Jimie Wilhelm.

2:01:33.200 --> 2:01:35.879
<v Speaker 24>If I may, yeah, if I may say his name.

2:01:36.320 --> 2:01:39.440
<v Speaker 2>Of course. Well, now, uh tell me the tell me

2:01:39.480 --> 2:01:42.160
<v Speaker 2>the origin of himI Heimi Wilhelm.

2:01:42.200 --> 2:01:43.080
<v Speaker 8>That's a great question.

2:01:44.240 --> 2:01:46.080
<v Speaker 24>Are you familiar with the band of wolf Peck?

2:01:47.640 --> 2:01:47.840
<v Speaker 8>Uh?

2:01:47.920 --> 2:01:48.280
<v Speaker 9>They do that?

2:01:48.440 --> 2:01:49.920
<v Speaker 2>What does the fox say song?

2:01:50.760 --> 2:01:50.880
<v Speaker 11>No?

2:01:51.040 --> 2:01:53.680
<v Speaker 24>That is that's that's a guy from a different country.

2:01:54.200 --> 2:01:56.400
<v Speaker 2>But I am not familiar with the band will Wolf Peck.

2:01:56.480 --> 2:01:58.840
<v Speaker 24>Then they're they're they're phenomenal.

2:01:58.920 --> 2:02:01.200
<v Speaker 8>But I happened to have.

2:02:02.760 --> 2:02:04.600
<v Speaker 24>Gone to a summer camp where the big front man,

2:02:04.680 --> 2:02:06.960
<v Speaker 24>Jack Stratton, was a teacher and I learned from him,

2:02:07.120 --> 2:02:09.320
<v Speaker 24>and he had a character named Mushi Krongole, who was

2:02:09.400 --> 2:02:10.720
<v Speaker 24>like anyone out there.

2:02:10.720 --> 2:02:12.480
<v Speaker 9>If you google Mushi Krongle.

2:02:12.120 --> 2:02:15.840
<v Speaker 24>There's some very very nice stuff. And I don't know,

2:02:15.880 --> 2:02:18.480
<v Speaker 24>I just wanted a character too. So I started doing

2:02:18.520 --> 2:02:22.000
<v Speaker 24>this bullshit in college and then kept doing it after

2:02:22.040 --> 2:02:25.360
<v Speaker 24>college and live settings, and then live shows went away,

2:02:25.520 --> 2:02:29.200
<v Speaker 24>and then I discovered our pen and had a blast.

2:02:28.120 --> 2:02:32.720
<v Speaker 2>And so you were doing this German Man of live

2:02:32.800 --> 2:02:36.320
<v Speaker 2>shows of it. Yeah, yeah, Well how did these shows go?

2:02:36.400 --> 2:02:39.680
<v Speaker 2>Were they pre written or were they improvised or the comedy?

2:02:41.560 --> 2:02:42.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious?

2:02:42.280 --> 2:02:46.040
<v Speaker 24>Yeah, absolutely, I you know. I also, in the before

2:02:46.040 --> 2:02:47.840
<v Speaker 24>time did stand up, but I would find that his

2:02:47.960 --> 2:02:49.720
<v Speaker 24>character would consistently.

2:02:49.160 --> 2:02:50.240
<v Speaker 9>Do better than the stand up.

2:02:50.720 --> 2:02:55.720
<v Speaker 24>Yeah, so I ended up doing character law. But I

2:02:55.920 --> 2:02:58.440
<v Speaker 24>think it's it's it's correct. Me tell me if to

2:02:58.480 --> 2:03:01.200
<v Speaker 24>do a similar for you. I don't know why the

2:03:01.280 --> 2:03:04.760
<v Speaker 24>character works, do you claim to know why what you

2:03:04.800 --> 2:03:07.200
<v Speaker 24>do works.

2:03:08.320 --> 2:03:10.880
<v Speaker 2>I have I think I know why what I well,

2:03:11.040 --> 2:03:13.480
<v Speaker 2>it depends on how you define works, because you could

2:03:13.480 --> 2:03:16.400
<v Speaker 2>define that if you wanted to define that as objective,

2:03:16.440 --> 2:03:19.880
<v Speaker 2>if you want to find that objectively as like are

2:03:19.960 --> 2:03:23.120
<v Speaker 2>there people watching me do this right now? Then yes

2:03:23.640 --> 2:03:26.440
<v Speaker 2>it works objectively. But if you wanted to find it

2:03:26.800 --> 2:03:30.200
<v Speaker 2>like you know, is it? You know, there's a lot

2:03:30.200 --> 2:03:35.440
<v Speaker 2>of different ways to define if something works. But I

2:03:35.480 --> 2:03:37.760
<v Speaker 2>think I don't know if I went into why I

2:03:37.760 --> 2:03:42.960
<v Speaker 2>thought this worked, it would I think I'd get to, uh,

2:03:43.440 --> 2:03:47.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, I know why it works for me. I

2:03:47.200 --> 2:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>used to do stand up in the before times, and

2:03:49.480 --> 2:03:52.280
<v Speaker 2>like if I can. If I came on a stream,

2:03:52.920 --> 2:03:57.040
<v Speaker 2>if and I was like, I'm Lyle and this is

2:03:57.200 --> 2:04:00.920
<v Speaker 2>the Lile Advice Hour with me, I'd be like, I'm

2:04:00.920 --> 2:04:04.160
<v Speaker 2>a fucking douche. I should go kill myself. What am

2:04:04.200 --> 2:04:07.080
<v Speaker 2>I doing? But but when you're doing it with like

2:04:07.200 --> 2:04:11.840
<v Speaker 2>a character, when you're doing it, it's it's so much

2:04:12.000 --> 2:04:14.880
<v Speaker 2>less personal. You have you have you, there's so much more.

2:04:16.760 --> 2:04:20.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know how you would like, you know, detachment,

2:04:20.680 --> 2:04:22.880
<v Speaker 2>but like the good kind of detachment that that that

2:04:23.640 --> 2:04:25.720
<v Speaker 2>makes you looser. If that makes sense.

2:04:26.600 --> 2:04:29.120
<v Speaker 24>Yeah, I honestly I feel the same way, and I

2:04:29.160 --> 2:04:30.560
<v Speaker 24>couldn't say it better myself.

2:04:30.920 --> 2:04:34.280
<v Speaker 2>I want to know about this will because I did.

2:04:34.920 --> 2:04:37.240
<v Speaker 2>When Pandemic is over. I want to do the therapy

2:04:37.320 --> 2:04:39.360
<v Speaker 2>echo live, but I I am trying to work out

2:04:39.400 --> 2:04:41.960
<v Speaker 2>how that would work. What I want to do is

2:04:41.960 --> 2:04:45.640
<v Speaker 2>I want to just take calls, stream it stream like

2:04:45.880 --> 2:04:48.320
<v Speaker 2>set up some cameras, stream it on Twitch, and just

2:04:48.360 --> 2:04:50.480
<v Speaker 2>take do exactly what I'm doing, but with an audience.

2:04:50.960 --> 2:04:54.320
<v Speaker 2>How did your streams go? What did you do? Or

2:04:54.360 --> 2:04:55.120
<v Speaker 2>your shows?

2:04:55.840 --> 2:04:58.680
<v Speaker 24>Well, for the shows, it would usually be like it

2:04:58.680 --> 2:05:00.720
<v Speaker 24>would be comedy shows. If the end up stem stump

2:05:00.720 --> 2:05:03.120
<v Speaker 24>and I would just do this character and it would

2:05:03.120 --> 2:05:05.040
<v Speaker 24>just go get on stage with this with a saw,

2:05:05.240 --> 2:05:08.040
<v Speaker 24>or like this omni chord, which is like really fun music,

2:05:08.360 --> 2:05:10.680
<v Speaker 24>like electronic instrument, and I just be like, I don't

2:05:10.720 --> 2:05:13.800
<v Speaker 24>have anything written, Like give me either a topic and

2:05:13.840 --> 2:05:15.560
<v Speaker 24>I make up a song on the omni chord or

2:05:15.600 --> 2:05:18.120
<v Speaker 24>I just do covers on the saw, but they're like fucked.

2:05:17.920 --> 2:05:18.880
<v Speaker 8>Up because it's it's a musical.

2:05:19.120 --> 2:05:20.320
<v Speaker 9>It's it's a regular saw.

2:05:20.360 --> 2:05:23.080
<v Speaker 8>You cut woodwhip and you play with like a cello bow.

2:05:22.960 --> 2:05:24.960
<v Speaker 24>And it sounds it's like, no matter what you play,

2:05:24.960 --> 2:05:28.360
<v Speaker 24>it's gonna sound like fucked up that I don't know,

2:05:28.360 --> 2:05:30.640
<v Speaker 24>it's just the fun thing. But like it's like this,

2:05:30.720 --> 2:05:32.680
<v Speaker 24>you don't have to write anything, and like you said, yeah,

2:05:32.680 --> 2:05:35.480
<v Speaker 24>it's kind of detached from you. So it's not like, oh,

2:05:35.600 --> 2:05:38.240
<v Speaker 24>it's me Willy on stage and I wrote these jokes

2:05:38.320 --> 2:05:39.680
<v Speaker 24>and if you don't like the jokes, that means you

2:05:39.720 --> 2:05:40.480
<v Speaker 24>don't like me.

2:05:41.040 --> 2:05:41.720
<v Speaker 8>But I'm not me.

2:05:41.880 --> 2:05:43.600
<v Speaker 24>I'm this other guy, this character.

2:05:44.240 --> 2:05:47.600
<v Speaker 4>So you know, it's heart.

2:05:47.840 --> 2:05:50.640
<v Speaker 2>I think with streaming though, because like when you're if

2:05:50.680 --> 2:05:53.480
<v Speaker 2>you if if you go on stage and you know

2:05:53.520 --> 2:05:55.960
<v Speaker 2>you did stay, if you go on stage and you

2:05:56.200 --> 2:06:00.400
<v Speaker 2>just start talking and everything you say does and sort

2:06:00.400 --> 2:06:02.760
<v Speaker 2>of wrap up into a neat little bow that has

2:06:02.800 --> 2:06:06.000
<v Speaker 2>a laugh at the end. It doesn't work live, But

2:06:06.200 --> 2:06:08.120
<v Speaker 2>if you do it on the computer, it's different because

2:06:08.240 --> 2:06:10.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I have to people watching this right now

2:06:10.360 --> 2:06:12.840
<v Speaker 2>probably have it open in like another tab while they're
