<v Speaker 1>With Rowdy.

0:00:02.360 --> 0:00:03.920
<v Speaker 2>Hello therapy, get go?

0:00:04.960 --> 0:00:05.640

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Hey?

0:00:07.520 --> 0:00:11.160
<v Speaker 2>My name is Rowdy. I'm nineteen and I am obsessed

0:00:11.160 --> 0:00:16.799
<v Speaker 2>with my teacher. And before you think anything, I do

0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:18.880
<v Speaker 2>sound like a five year old, but I promise I'm not.

0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:21.840
<v Speaker 3>But I don't know.

0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:26.319
<v Speaker 2>I've been obsessed with my teacher for ever since I

0:00:26.400 --> 0:00:29.160
<v Speaker 2>met her, and I don't know. I feel like it's

0:00:29.160 --> 0:00:30.080
<v Speaker 2>getting out of hand?

0:00:32.159 --> 0:00:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Is this your what I would? Are you in high school?

0:00:35.080 --> 0:00:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Are you in college?

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:40.000
<v Speaker 2>I graduated from high school but this was the last year.

0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:43.959
<v Speaker 1>Okay? Well and this was last year and you're still

0:00:44.000 --> 0:00:44.639
<v Speaker 1>obsessed with her?

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:47.199
<v Speaker 3>Mm hm h.

0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:49.199
<v Speaker 1>What do you mean by you're obsessed with her?

0:00:50.920 --> 0:00:51.200
<v Speaker 3>Well?

0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:53.760
<v Speaker 1>How does it? I guess what I what I asked specifically,

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 1>is how does your obsession manifest?

0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Like I want to spend the rest of my life

0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:03.280
<v Speaker 2>with her as if I was like her son. You

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:04.039
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying.

0:01:04.440 --> 0:01:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Are you fucking with me right now? Or is this

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 1>a serious thing?

0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 2>This is serious?

0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 1>You want to spend the rest of your life with

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:12.759
<v Speaker 1>her as if you were her son?

0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 2>Yes, but like now that I say that, a lot,

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:20.720
<v Speaker 2>it sounds a lot weirder.

0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:23.800
<v Speaker 1>But no, no, no, no, I'm not I'm not I'm not here.

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:25.120
<v Speaker 1>I just wanted to make sure you were fun with me.

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not here to judge your thoughts and your and

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 1>your feelings. Tell me what, tell me more about what

0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:31.319
<v Speaker 1>you mean by that?

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:38.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, huh, I don't know. She what I mean is like,

0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:40.600
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, I don't know what I could do

0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:44.520
<v Speaker 2>without her. And I just stopped talking to her a

0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.120
<v Speaker 2>little bit ago. And it's I've been upset since then.

0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:50.960
<v Speaker 1>And you mean, you mean, what do you mean you

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:53.160
<v Speaker 1>stopped talking to her?

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:57.559
<v Speaker 2>So like at the end of school, I just stopped

0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:00.160
<v Speaker 2>talking to her. And it's you know, because she is

0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:02.520
<v Speaker 2>there every day for me. If I ever had a problem,

0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 2>I could talk to her about it. You know, if

0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:07.560
<v Speaker 2>I had anything, she would help me out with it.

0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:12.800
<v Speaker 1>So what kind of teacher was this?

0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:14.760
<v Speaker 2>This was my math teacher.

0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:17.440
<v Speaker 1>And when you say you had a problem, she was

0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:20.040
<v Speaker 1>like helping you out with like personal problems.

0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:27.200
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, what kind of personal problems?

0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>You know?

0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Uh, I've I've had really bad issues with my mental

0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 2>health and she helped me a lot with that. And

0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:39.920
<v Speaker 2>then you know, kids would just pick on me because

0:02:39.960 --> 0:02:42.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, I wouldn't say anything or whatever. And if

0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:44.560
<v Speaker 2>I ever needed anything from her, she would tell me

0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 2>and let me.

0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 1>M sorry, no, don't be saying anything. So when you

0:02:56.639 --> 0:02:58.519
<v Speaker 1>say you're obsessed with her, and when you say you

0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:00.799
<v Speaker 1>want her to be your mom, are you like romantically

0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 1>obsessed with your tea?

0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:02.639
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, not at all.

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:09.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh not at all. Oh yeah, okay, all right, that's

0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:11.119
<v Speaker 1>why that's what I thought.

0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 2>This was no no, no, no. Uh that's what a

0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:17.919
<v Speaker 2>lot of people think. But because I've talked to one

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.400
<v Speaker 2>other person about this, and that's what they thought. But

0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.840
<v Speaker 2>she was never really like I've never had a thought

0:03:24.000 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 2>of like dating her or anything like that. But I

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 2>have had the thought like, what if the rest of

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:32.400
<v Speaker 2>my life she was my mom? You know?

0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Hm hm hm hmm. Well okay, man, what what's your

0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:42.119
<v Speaker 1>relationship like with your real mom?

0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm not too good. When we were, when I was

0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:48.360
<v Speaker 2>a lot younger, it wasn't too well. But you know

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:51.480
<v Speaker 2>now it's just we fight a lot. That's kind of it.

0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:55.200
<v Speaker 1>What do you guys typically fight over?

0:03:57.400 --> 0:03:59.760
<v Speaker 2>You know, like, uh, some days I don't want to

0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:03.320
<v Speaker 2>go to work because I work at McDonald's and it sucks.

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:07.080
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's just I mean, you know, it's McDonald's.

0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:11.680
<v Speaker 2>But so some days when I call off, I'll tell

0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:14.200
<v Speaker 2>her and then she'll get mad at me and be like,

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:19.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, but then we get in a huge argument

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:22.320
<v Speaker 2>and then she brings back how I'm on probation for

0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:23.480
<v Speaker 2>trying to stab someone.

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:31.279
<v Speaker 1>So, yeah, is that something you want to talk about?

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Sure, I just I really just want to finish getting

0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:40.240
<v Speaker 2>my teacher off my chest because I've had nobody else

0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:42.800
<v Speaker 2>to talk to and I can't believe I'm on your

0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:46.120
<v Speaker 2>show right now. I've been waiting years to talk to you. Man.

0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 2>It's just but anyways, I'll get back to the stories.

0:04:50.480 --> 0:04:53.320
<v Speaker 2>So you know, I'm not romantically obsessed with her, but

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what I would do without her. And

0:04:56.240 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's just been really rough not having her

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.680
<v Speaker 2>there for me, because you know, I can't really talk

0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 2>to anybody else. How I talked to her, you know,

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:06.960
<v Speaker 2>like I could tell her the truth. I could be like,

0:05:07.320 --> 0:05:09.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, this is my issue, this is what I'm thinking.

0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:12.760
<v Speaker 2>You know, what should I do to get help or

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:17.279
<v Speaker 2>what or what? But you know, and she was always

0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 2>there for me. She always helped me. She uh, I

0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:23.400
<v Speaker 2>can't think of what it's called. But she went to

0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 2>school for something to like help, like, I guess you

0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:30.240
<v Speaker 2>call us kids.

0:05:31.160 --> 0:05:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Sorry? Sorry, sorry what did you you? You kind out

0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 1>just know what did you say?

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:36.320
<v Speaker 3>I said? Sorry?

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.200
<v Speaker 2>I said that she went to school to go do

0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:47.919
<v Speaker 2>something and like like psychology for teens and stuff almost adults.

0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:52.360
<v Speaker 2>So you know she, uh, she knew what she was saying.

0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:54.919
<v Speaker 2>And you know, she was just always there for me.

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 2>And I've been doing a lot rough, a lot more

0:05:59.040 --> 0:06:01.880
<v Speaker 2>rough without her. I was doing so much better when

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 2>I knew her and like talked to her at school

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:09.320
<v Speaker 2>and stuff. And now you know, I'm I'm just going downhill.

0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:14.000
<v Speaker 1>So first thing I'm gonna say, I gotta get this

0:06:14.040 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 1>out of the way. You really, you dude, you really

0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 1>sound like you need to talk to a real therapist.

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:28.920
<v Speaker 1>And I know that it's difficult to like get help

0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:31.360
<v Speaker 1>in that way. I am not a real therapist. I

0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:33.400
<v Speaker 1>know you already know that. I know, I know, I know,

0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I know you already know that. I just gotta you know,

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.680
<v Speaker 1>let you know I'm not a real therapist. I think

0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:39.640
<v Speaker 1>you sound like you need to talk to a real therapist.

0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:47.200
<v Speaker 1>But still I'll talk to you about this stuff. So

0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:50.040
<v Speaker 1>have you ever spoken to a real therapist about this.

0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:56.080
<v Speaker 2>I haven't because you know, I always feel that people

0:06:56.120 --> 0:06:58.320
<v Speaker 2>would judge me, and I can't blame them because I mean,

0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.359
<v Speaker 2>you know, think about it. But you know, so I

0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:03.599
<v Speaker 2>you know, that's kind of why I called in on

0:07:03.640 --> 0:07:06.160
<v Speaker 2>your show, because you know, I will probably never ever

0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:10.120
<v Speaker 2>speak to you again, and all the strangers who who

0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:13.320
<v Speaker 2>are listening probably will never hear from me again. So

0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's like, why not just get it out

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 2>to somebody who you know I won't see and they

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:23.800
<v Speaker 2>won't talk to me about it again. Hm.

0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:28.320
<v Speaker 1>So I guess, like, tell me a little bit more

0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:33.600
<v Speaker 1>about your life, man, Like what uh so you say?

0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.520
<v Speaker 1>Like in when you were in school people were bullying you,

0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:38.200
<v Speaker 1>what were they bullying you about?

0:07:39.560 --> 0:07:42.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, uh, I had a bit of a

0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:46.640
<v Speaker 2>mental issue and uh you know, I got picked up

0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:49.640
<v Speaker 2>from school in an ambulance and everyone was saying I

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 2>overdosed on fit and all, which did not happen. And

0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:55.720
<v Speaker 2>then everyone like they would always be like, yo, you

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:59.200
<v Speaker 2>got fit on you and stuff, and then some kid, Uh,

0:08:00.720 --> 0:08:03.280
<v Speaker 2>sadly I have scars and kids laugh at me for that.

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:07.320
<v Speaker 2>People laugh at me at work at it too, And

0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:09.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, I just never really talk to people called

0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:14.760
<v Speaker 2>me weird and you know, and.

0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:16.840
<v Speaker 1>What do you go ahead? I want to do you finish?

0:08:17.680 --> 0:08:22.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I was just gonna say, and I'm mildly autistic,

0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 2>which really sucks because you know it's just no, that's

0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.120
<v Speaker 2>not a lie, that's that's true. I'm not trying to,

0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:33.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, make anybody feel bad for me, but it

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.200
<v Speaker 2>it's just like you know, when people find out, they're like, oh,

0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:38.719
<v Speaker 2>you know, that's why he's so weird, and then they

0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:40.160
<v Speaker 2>like to use it against me.

0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Hmm, what do you want out of life? I'm curious.

0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.040
<v Speaker 1>You know that that evolves over time, but just at

0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:54.520
<v Speaker 1>this moment, at.

0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:58.480
<v Speaker 2>This moment, you know, I kind of just I don't know.

0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:00.880
<v Speaker 2>I want a happy life. You know. I'm tired of

0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 2>feeling like shit every day, waking up being like, you know,

0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:59.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, are you suicidal or this and this and

0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:01.520
<v Speaker 2>actually tell me like what I should do, who I

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 2>should talk to about stuff, and actually helped me through

0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:05.600
<v Speaker 2>what I'm going through.

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Can you tell me a little bit more about how

0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:12.160
<v Speaker 1>your teacher helped you go through what you were going through,

0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 1>like things she said or whatnot that was that was

0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:15.920
<v Speaker 1>helpful to you.

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:19.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'll give you something.

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:25.160
<v Speaker 2>This is pretty uh find out anybody else would confess this.

0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:27.080
<v Speaker 2>But you know, I ain't got nothing better to do

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:30.760
<v Speaker 2>with my life. So I tried to kill myself one time,

0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:39.000
<v Speaker 2>and she saved me from that. Also, you know what

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:43.760
<v Speaker 2>else she saved me from screaming at some kid she

0:10:44.400 --> 0:10:47.040
<v Speaker 2>was crying one day in the classroom because you know,

0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 2>some kids were making fun of me and she went

0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:52.240
<v Speaker 2>and like, you know, did what she had to do.

0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.480
<v Speaker 2>And then what else. You know, anytime I was ever sad,

0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:57.200
<v Speaker 2>she would just help me. She would be like, yeah,

0:10:57.240 --> 0:11:01.560
<v Speaker 2>it'll get better, you know this. And then I didn't

0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:04.000
<v Speaker 2>meet her kids one day. I stayed after school and

0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:07.880
<v Speaker 2>her kids are super nice. They're very well behaved, and

0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 2>you know it just I don't know.

0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>So so you said you were like, oh, this person

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:19.400
<v Speaker 1>will tell me things and actually helped me. She won't

0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.480
<v Speaker 1>just be like are you suicidal? Like have you had

0:11:22.520 --> 0:11:25.440
<v Speaker 1>experiences where you reached out for help and you felt

0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:26.559
<v Speaker 1>like it was inadequate?

0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Yes, multiple times I've been into the mental hospital about

0:11:34.679 --> 0:11:36.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know four or five times.

0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Now.

0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Never wants to help me, you know, everyone's everyone there

0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:42.880
<v Speaker 2>never helped me. Try to put me on new meds

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:45.720
<v Speaker 2>didn't work. And then you know, I have a mom

0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:47.720
<v Speaker 2>who you know, I tell her and then she gets

0:11:47.720 --> 0:11:50.680
<v Speaker 2>angry at me and being like, well, you know, my

0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:54.560
<v Speaker 2>life sucks, you know I have to live this and this. Yeah,

0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:58.199
<v Speaker 2>and then you know I have a sister named Kurmis,

0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:05.560
<v Speaker 2>and she oh kind of just tells my mom everything.

0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:09.199
<v Speaker 3>She was the one.

0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Girl in my life before my teacher, who I could

0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:13.560
<v Speaker 2>actually talk to.

0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Do you still feel as though you can actually talk

0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:17.959
<v Speaker 1>to her? Is she still a big part of your life.

0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:21.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, she's a big part of my life sort of,

0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:24.200
<v Speaker 2>but I can't talk to her because you know, she

0:12:24.320 --> 0:12:26.560
<v Speaker 2>tells my mom everything. Then my mom wants to bring

0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:29.160
<v Speaker 2>it up, you know, anytime I'm around her, and then

0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:31.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, it just turns into either a fight or

0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:34.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, her telling me her how sad her life is.

0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:42.280
<v Speaker 2>So m but and then if you want to hear

0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:45.600
<v Speaker 2>who I almost stab. I got in a fight with

0:12:45.679 --> 0:12:47.720
<v Speaker 2>my stepdad because I was trying to get shipped out

0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 2>of my house or my mom's house while I was moving,

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.280
<v Speaker 2>and she wouldn't give me one of my things, and

0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:58.080
<v Speaker 2>then she was yelling at me, and then my stepdad

0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:02.240
<v Speaker 2>came out and pushed me out the door, and then

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.840
<v Speaker 2>I tried to stab them. The cops came and they're like,

0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:08.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, we gotta bring you, we gotta detain you

0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:09.160
<v Speaker 2>and do whatever.

0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:10.040
<v Speaker 3>I got booked.

0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:17.520
<v Speaker 2>I was charged with I think it was battery or something.

0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:20.320
<v Speaker 2>It was pretty sure it's a battery, but it was

0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:23.800
<v Speaker 2>a felony and somehow I got it changed down to

0:13:23.840 --> 0:13:24.559

0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:05.840
<v Speaker 1>You're nineteen. You know, if I think at this point

0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:09.399
<v Speaker 1>right like and what you described to me as a

0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:12.679
<v Speaker 1>happy life, it's totally I really am optimistic for you

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:15.679
<v Speaker 1>that those things are not out of your reach because

0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:17.959
<v Speaker 1>what you really want is you want to be around

0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:23.520
<v Speaker 1>people that you can trust, and you want to help people,

0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:29.960
<v Speaker 1>which is great because I think there's so many avenues

0:19:30.720 --> 0:19:36.159
<v Speaker 1>for you where you can help people and be around

0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:39.199
<v Speaker 1>other people, Like being a paramedic is a great idea.

0:19:39.320 --> 0:19:41.320
<v Speaker 1>You know, you're gonna have to go to school to

0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:45.440
<v Speaker 1>do that. I'm sure you'll meet people in school and

0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:49.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, and when you do that, and this is

0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:52.760
<v Speaker 1>way harder said than done, but I really hope, like

0:19:52.840 --> 0:19:56.919
<v Speaker 1>when you go to school to be a paramedic, you know,

0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:02.440
<v Speaker 1>and your meet other people and you're indulging in this

0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:10.440

<v Speaker 1>an adult and you can choose You're not gonna, you know,

<v Speaker 1>let high school follow you around. I mean, uh so

0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:13.639
<v Speaker 1>that's that's that's the most important thing. Is that what

0:21:13.720 --> 0:21:16.760
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna do. You're gonna go into community college or

0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:17.400
<v Speaker 1>anything like that.

0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:22.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's a certain college I want to go to,

0:21:22.960 --> 0:21:25.920
<v Speaker 2>but you know, it would kind of give out where

0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I am. So, you know, I don't really want to say,

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:30.800
<v Speaker 2>but cool, you know.

0:21:31.400 --> 0:21:35.879
<v Speaker 1>But are you are you? Are you able to is it?

0:21:35.960 --> 0:21:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Are you able to afford it without taking out a

0:21:37.720 --> 0:21:38.800
<v Speaker 1>whole bunch of loans and ship?

0:21:39.840 --> 0:21:44.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so. Okay, from as far as I

0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:47.760
<v Speaker 2>know that what I've like looked up into it, I need,

0:21:48.200 --> 0:21:51.119
<v Speaker 2>I need to take a loan, But you know, I

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:53.639
<v Speaker 2>don't I don't you know, I don't know how to

0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:57.200
<v Speaker 2>do any of that ship. And you know, I'm my

0:21:57.200 --> 0:21:59.840
<v Speaker 2>My parents are divorced. You know. I live with my

0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:03.040
<v Speaker 2>father for pretty much my whole entire high school year,

0:22:03.080 --> 0:22:05.440
<v Speaker 2>and then I moved down here for my senior year.

0:22:06.160 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 2>And you know, and that's that's kind of one thing too,

0:22:10.880 --> 0:22:15.000
<v Speaker 2>is that you know, I don't know. When I lived

0:22:15.000 --> 0:22:17.520
<v Speaker 2>in this other town, I had a girl who.

0:22:18.920 --> 0:22:19.280
<v Speaker 3>Was my.

0:22:21.480 --> 0:22:24.800
<v Speaker 2>Pretty much a rehab kind of person because for some reason,

0:22:24.840 --> 0:22:26.600
<v Speaker 2>since I smoked weed, they thought, you know, I was

0:22:26.640 --> 0:22:31.480
<v Speaker 2>an addict. So but I've never felt the same way

0:22:31.560 --> 0:22:35.359
<v Speaker 2>for anybody else that I've had for my teacher and

0:22:35.480 --> 0:22:36.560
<v Speaker 2>my rehab.

0:22:36.680 --> 0:22:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Person, your rehab person, like like she was a counselor.

0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:45.240
<v Speaker 3>Yes, m.

0:22:48.760 --> 0:22:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I I wish for you the the optimism. It's hard

0:22:57.600 --> 0:22:59.199
<v Speaker 1>to have when you're in the moment, it really is,

0:23:00.359 --> 0:23:03.720
<v Speaker 1>But I wish for you the optimism that as you

0:23:03.760 --> 0:23:07.360
<v Speaker 1>continue to go through life, you will meet new people

0:23:07.800 --> 0:23:10.960
<v Speaker 1>who you know. You can't go through life trying to

0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:14.800
<v Speaker 1>find someone in someone else, you know what I'm saying.

0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:16.800
<v Speaker 1>If you just go through life being like I just

0:23:16.840 --> 0:23:19.639
<v Speaker 1>need to find someone in my life who can be

0:23:20.000 --> 0:23:22.680
<v Speaker 1>with me the way that my teacher was like with

0:23:22.720 --> 0:23:26.200
<v Speaker 1>me to the tea. You kind of fuck yourself a

0:23:26.240 --> 0:23:29.400
<v Speaker 1>little bit when you do that, because you I don't

0:23:29.440 --> 0:23:33.680
<v Speaker 1>know if you can find someone in someone else, but

0:23:33.760 --> 0:23:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you can be open minded to the idea that there's

0:23:37.400 --> 0:23:45.480
<v Speaker 1>people who are who are not like anyone you've ever met,

0:23:45.960 --> 0:23:48.840
<v Speaker 1>that you will meet, and there's people who will make

0:23:48.880 --> 0:23:53.720
<v Speaker 1>you feel in ways that you have never felt. And

0:23:54.160 --> 0:23:57.119
<v Speaker 1>for you, because you're nineteen years it's that optimism that

0:23:57.160 --> 0:24:04.640
<v Speaker 1>will happen only grows, and the chances of that happening

0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:09.080
<v Speaker 1>expand as you fucking go do things, you know, like

0:24:09.160 --> 0:24:16.240
<v Speaker 1>be like go to school or volunteer. Right, So I

0:24:16.280 --> 0:24:18.840
<v Speaker 1>would make a I mean I would make a big

0:24:18.880 --> 0:24:23.840
<v Speaker 1>fucking list of like everything you could possibly do that

0:24:23.920 --> 0:24:27.920
<v Speaker 1>involves helping other people and being around other people. It's

0:24:28.240 --> 0:24:31.960
<v Speaker 1>volunteering or going to school to be a paramedic or

0:24:32.880 --> 0:24:38.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, coaching a little league kickball team, whatever the

0:24:38.400 --> 0:24:48.119
<v Speaker 1>fuck it is, right, And the more you take your ah,

0:24:48.520 --> 0:24:51.680
<v Speaker 1>the more you attack that list and put yourself out

0:24:51.680 --> 0:24:58.679
<v Speaker 1>there and reject the sell whatever happens to you in

0:24:58.720 --> 0:25:01.320
<v Speaker 1>the past that cause yourself steam to be whatever it is.

0:25:02.680 --> 0:25:06.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, you're inevitable you're the idea that you'll live

0:25:06.200 --> 0:25:09.879
<v Speaker 1>this happy life. It's it to me is inevitable if

0:25:09.960 --> 0:25:13.080
<v Speaker 1>if you have the courage to, you know, make that

0:25:13.200 --> 0:25:16.639
<v Speaker 1>list and attack it. So I'm optimists.

0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:21.280
<v Speaker 2>I got more more things to say. First, I really

0:25:21.320 --> 0:25:23.280
<v Speaker 2>do appreciate it, man, I really do.

0:25:23.680 --> 0:25:25.040
<v Speaker 3>I love your shows.

0:25:25.119 --> 0:25:26.800
<v Speaker 2>You know, I've been watching you for like two and

0:25:26.840 --> 0:25:29.479
<v Speaker 2>a half years now, me and my little sister has

0:25:29.480 --> 0:25:30.280
<v Speaker 2>been watching you.

0:25:30.640 --> 0:25:31.280
<v Speaker 3>We love you.

0:25:31.320 --> 0:25:35.639
<v Speaker 2>But the other thing is is that back to my

0:25:35.720 --> 0:25:38.600
<v Speaker 2>teacher real quick, is that you know, I also I

0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:42.159
<v Speaker 2>want kids, like how she has kids, but also that

0:25:43.000 --> 0:25:46.040
<v Speaker 2>I found out recently that she was getting divorced and

0:25:46.080 --> 0:25:50.119
<v Speaker 2>it sucks because you know, I don't know. I know

0:25:50.200 --> 0:25:52.600
<v Speaker 2>this is going to sound super like weird, but I

0:25:52.600 --> 0:25:55.880
<v Speaker 2>don't want her to find a new boyfriend because it's

0:25:55.960 --> 0:25:59.919
<v Speaker 2>just her husband, I guess, because I feel like just

0:26:00.320 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 2>her kids will change so much.

0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Are you sure you don't have romantic feelings for this person?

0:26:09.400 --> 0:26:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I am sure. I mean, you know, I never

0:26:13.640 --> 0:26:17.040
<v Speaker 2>really had the thought of, like, no ever being with

0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:20.480
<v Speaker 2>her like that, But I don't know, I just feel like,

0:26:20.800 --> 0:26:23.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's gonna tear her family apart.

0:26:23.720 --> 0:26:25.680
<v Speaker 1>In all this stuff, my brother my brother, my brother

0:26:25.760 --> 0:26:31.760
<v Speaker 1>rat Rowdy, Rowdy, I uh, it's very sweet that you

0:26:31.880 --> 0:26:35.960
<v Speaker 1>care about this, but you got you absolutely gotta gotta you.

0:26:35.960 --> 0:26:39.440
<v Speaker 1>You absolutely cannot be invested in this woman's life.

0:26:41.160 --> 0:26:41.479
<v Speaker 2>M hm.

0:26:42.840 --> 0:26:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Take take. I would take the amount of investment that

0:26:45.119 --> 0:26:47.600
<v Speaker 1>you have in this woman's life and redirect that to

0:26:47.720 --> 0:26:48.200
<v Speaker 1>your own.

0:26:51.720 --> 0:26:52.200
<v Speaker 2>All right.

0:26:53.200 --> 0:26:56.040
<v Speaker 1>You know you want to have kids one day, you

0:26:56.080 --> 0:26:58.439
<v Speaker 1>want to do this, You want to do that, So

0:26:59.240 --> 0:27:01.800
<v Speaker 1>focus on doing whatever you gotta do to put yourself

0:27:01.800 --> 0:27:05.639
<v Speaker 1>in the best position to be doing that shit instead

0:27:05.640 --> 0:27:10.160
<v Speaker 1>of thinking about this lady's kids.

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:13.240
<v Speaker 2>And I actually, I do have one more thing to say.

0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:14.440
<v Speaker 1>Go ahead.

0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:16.200
<v Speaker 3>I feel like.

0:27:16.400 --> 0:27:20.000
<v Speaker 2>I might be, you know, fucked up in the head because,

0:27:21.200 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 2>like truly, I think if somebody ever hurts my teacher

0:27:27.600 --> 0:27:30.280
<v Speaker 2>and I ever find out that I would kill them.

0:27:30.359 --> 0:27:32.919
<v Speaker 2>And I'm being honest. I'm not trying to sound creepy

0:27:33.040 --> 0:27:35.200
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, but no, it's just.

0:27:36.680 --> 0:27:37.159
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:27:39.320 --> 0:27:45.240
<v Speaker 1>I first, all, Rowdy, you got I don't you gotta

0:27:45.280 --> 0:27:50.840
<v Speaker 1>go see a real therapist? Oh okay, you gotta go

0:27:50.960 --> 0:27:56.000
<v Speaker 1>see a real therapist. Yeah, will you go do that?

0:27:56.040 --> 0:27:57.359
<v Speaker 1>Will you do that? Will you try it? Will you

0:27:57.400 --> 0:27:59.080
<v Speaker 1>at least try to see a real therapist. Will you

0:27:59.119 --> 0:28:01.520
<v Speaker 1>go on the internet and be like, how can I

0:28:01.560 --> 0:28:04.439
<v Speaker 1>get free therapy? Will you? Will you do something to

0:28:04.480 --> 0:28:06.280
<v Speaker 1>try to get a real thing? Does McDonald's give you

0:28:06.320 --> 0:28:08.399
<v Speaker 1>health insurance? No?

0:28:08.840 --> 0:28:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Sadly fucked up?

0:28:11.480 --> 0:28:13.280
<v Speaker 1>I know, okay, will you at least will you try?

0:28:13.320 --> 0:28:14.919
<v Speaker 1>Will you try to go see a real therapist?

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:16.280
<v Speaker 3>Yes?

0:28:17.359 --> 0:28:20.439
<v Speaker 2>Technically I have one, but you know, I just I

0:28:20.480 --> 0:28:23.400
<v Speaker 2>don't really talk to her too much because.

0:28:23.119 --> 0:28:26.160
<v Speaker 1>You know, who is your technical real therapist?

0:28:28.119 --> 0:28:30.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, I can't necessarily say her name, but.

0:28:30.320 --> 0:28:31.919
<v Speaker 1>Not her No, don't. I don't want her name like

0:28:31.960 --> 0:28:32.880
<v Speaker 1>who like who?

0:28:33.359 --> 0:28:33.479
<v Speaker 3>Like?

0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:34.720
<v Speaker 1>What does she do? What's her job?

0:28:36.119 --> 0:28:36.399
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:28:36.600 --> 0:28:41.520
<v Speaker 2>She is all a counselor therapist kind of person. She

0:28:41.720 --> 0:28:43.760
<v Speaker 2>just I kind of just sit down, tell her how

0:28:43.760 --> 0:28:46.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm feeling, what happened this and this?

0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Och a therapist? Yeah, why don't you tell her all

0:28:51.320 --> 0:28:53.640
<v Speaker 1>these things that you're talking about on this podcast right now?

0:28:54.840 --> 0:28:58.720
<v Speaker 2>Because, like I said before, you know, I'm going to

0:28:58.800 --> 0:29:01.600
<v Speaker 2>see I'm going to see her multiple times until you know,

0:29:01.640 --> 0:29:05.400
<v Speaker 2>I eventually you know, stop paying insurance or whatever. But

0:29:05.720 --> 0:29:09.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, with you and everyone who's watching, you know,

0:29:10.320 --> 0:29:12.520
<v Speaker 2>they may know who know who I am? They may not,

0:29:13.120 --> 0:29:16.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, but I doubt I will ever see any

0:29:16.280 --> 0:29:17.800
<v Speaker 2>of y'all in my entire life.

0:29:17.800 --> 0:29:25.440
<v Speaker 1>I implore you to share everything you shared on this

0:29:25.560 --> 0:29:27.840
<v Speaker 1>show with your real therapist.

0:29:32.920 --> 0:29:35.640
<v Speaker 2>And I talked to my therapist because I told her,

0:29:35.680 --> 0:29:37.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I did tell her this. I'm like, I

0:29:38.000 --> 0:29:40.640
<v Speaker 2>feel like I'm obsessed with my teacher, but not in

0:29:40.680 --> 0:29:45.120
<v Speaker 2>an like romantic kind of way. And she was like, Okay,

0:29:45.280 --> 0:29:48.960
<v Speaker 2>well you know this, this and this, and I'm like yeah, yeah.

0:29:49.480 --> 0:29:54.280
<v Speaker 2>And then one time while I was working, my teacher

0:29:54.360 --> 0:29:56.680
<v Speaker 2>actually came through the drive through with her kids and

0:29:56.720 --> 0:29:59.840
<v Speaker 2>I tried to pay for her meal. And I told

0:29:59.880 --> 0:30:02.440
<v Speaker 2>my counsel or that and she goes, well, you know,

0:30:02.560 --> 0:30:05.360
<v Speaker 2>you seem like you seem like, you know, you have

0:30:05.400 --> 0:30:09.760
<v Speaker 2>a romantic relationship with her. And I'm like, I hope not.

0:30:10.000 --> 0:30:13.280
<v Speaker 2>She's way older than me, and you know, I have

0:30:13.520 --> 0:30:17.880
<v Speaker 2>never had a thought of that throughout this, even meeting her.

0:30:18.520 --> 0:30:21.080
<v Speaker 2>And it's just I kind of want your opinion on it,

0:30:21.120 --> 0:30:22.160
<v Speaker 2>to be honest.

0:30:22.600 --> 0:30:25.680
<v Speaker 1>My opinion specifically on the teacher.

0:30:27.080 --> 0:30:29.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if I need to share more so you can

0:30:29.480 --> 0:30:30.120
<v Speaker 2>get more.

0:30:30.120 --> 0:30:32.720
<v Speaker 1>No, I feel like, no, no, I I kind of

0:30:32.720 --> 0:30:34.480
<v Speaker 1>feel like I've given you what my opinion is on

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:41.280
<v Speaker 1>this on this teacher situation. But I'll restate it is like, like, dude,

0:30:41.320 --> 0:30:43.760
<v Speaker 1>you're like, first of all, I just hope you like

0:30:43.880 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 1>you're you're in nineteen. You've told me so many things. Sure,

0:30:49.720 --> 0:30:53.200
<v Speaker 1>you've said things that are concerning, right, but you've also

0:30:53.280 --> 0:30:56.320
<v Speaker 1>said things like again, I'm not a real fucking therapist.

0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm just a fucking dude, and you should talk

0:30:58.600 --> 0:31:00.720
<v Speaker 1>to a real therapist or be your respond possible for

0:31:01.320 --> 0:31:03.720
<v Speaker 1>let me just say you like, hey, we're gonna have

0:31:03.760 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>the Hey, I got you. We're cool. Like that's it,

0:31:06.080 --> 0:31:10.160
<v Speaker 1>like you you gotta talk to real favors. But from

0:31:10.160 --> 0:31:13.160
<v Speaker 1>my perspective, yes, you've told me things that are concerning,

0:31:13.960 --> 0:31:16.120
<v Speaker 1>but you've also told me things that actually made me

0:31:16.120 --> 0:31:23.640
<v Speaker 1>feel pretty optimistic because you've laid out really nice goals

0:31:24.280 --> 0:31:28.760
<v Speaker 1>for yourself. You've laid out really clear direction for your

0:31:28.800 --> 0:31:32.560
<v Speaker 1>life that's positive, you know, saying you want to help people.

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:35.480
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:31:35.720 --> 0:31:39.120
<v Speaker 1>You You've said thing, You've said things that show that

0:31:39.160 --> 0:31:43.680
<v Speaker 1>you care, not the thing about killing the guy, but

0:31:43.760 --> 0:31:48.320
<v Speaker 1>the thing about you know, your friend Dane, you know.

0:31:51.640 --> 0:31:54.400
<v Speaker 1>And so my response to this problem you have it

0:31:54.480 --> 0:31:57.480
<v Speaker 1>but being obsessed to your teacher, my opinion, My feelings

0:31:57.520 --> 0:32:03.400
<v Speaker 1>truly are that you should really thread together all of

0:32:03.680 --> 0:32:07.160
<v Speaker 1>those positive things you've laid out and take all of

0:32:07.240 --> 0:32:12.120
<v Speaker 1>the energy that you're putting into being obsessed with your

0:32:12.120 --> 0:32:14.120
<v Speaker 1>teacher to thinking about her life into thinking like, if

0:32:14.160 --> 0:32:18.200
<v Speaker 1>anything happens, r take all of that energy that you

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:23.560
<v Speaker 1>are focused on this woman and redirect it into a

0:32:23.720 --> 0:32:27.840
<v Speaker 1>strong investment in your own life and in the direction

0:32:28.400 --> 0:32:32.440
<v Speaker 1>that you have laid out talking to me right now.

0:32:32.600 --> 0:32:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Does that make sense? Yes, Okay, that is exactly what

0:32:38.360 --> 0:32:40.520
<v Speaker 1>I think you should do and go see a real therapist.

0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Do you agree with me?

0:32:45.120 --> 0:32:48.840
<v Speaker 2>I do agree. It's just like I said, you know,

0:32:49.240 --> 0:32:54.200
<v Speaker 2>it's just hard to tell a therapist exactly how I'm

0:32:54.240 --> 0:32:57.800
<v Speaker 2>feeling and whatnot, because you know, it's just like I

0:32:57.840 --> 0:33:00.400
<v Speaker 2>said before, I'm going to see him again and then

0:33:00.400 --> 0:33:01.479
<v Speaker 2>they're going to bring it up.

0:33:01.840 --> 0:33:04.480
<v Speaker 1>That's good. It's good that you're going to see them again,

0:33:04.560 --> 0:33:06.280
<v Speaker 1>and it's good that they're going to bring it up again.

0:33:10.560 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, I kind of feel what I'm scared of is

0:33:13.200 --> 0:33:16.440
<v Speaker 2>that some days I'm having a really good day and

0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:19.400
<v Speaker 2>then you know, somebody brings up something and they just

0:33:19.560 --> 0:33:22.400
<v Speaker 2>ruins my day, it ruins my week, you know.

0:33:24.040 --> 0:33:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Look, man, I, by the way, by the way, what

0:33:26.240 --> 0:33:31.120
<v Speaker 1>you I just I'm what you just said. I've personally

0:33:31.720 --> 0:33:35.960
<v Speaker 1>been dealing a lot with this idea of like you know,

0:33:36.040 --> 0:33:38.480
<v Speaker 1>like like when I'm dealing with my own fucking problems,

0:33:38.480 --> 0:33:42.800
<v Speaker 1>I talk about them in therapy, and uh I journal

0:33:42.840 --> 0:33:46.320
<v Speaker 1>about them, and part of me really latches on actually

0:33:46.360 --> 0:33:49.800
<v Speaker 1>to what you just said, which is like, oh, uh am,

0:33:49.840 --> 0:33:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I just going to be like reinforcing my own problems

0:33:52.760 --> 0:33:55.280
<v Speaker 1>in my brain. Like what if I'm having a good day,

0:33:56.440 --> 0:33:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to go to therapy that's scheduled that

0:33:59.520 --> 0:34:02.080
<v Speaker 1>on this Thursday at four pm where I happen to

0:34:02.080 --> 0:34:03.720
<v Speaker 1>be doing good and then get in a chair and

0:34:03.960 --> 0:34:07.200
<v Speaker 1>talk about how I'm doing bad. But that's not fuck it,

0:34:07.200 --> 0:34:10.120
<v Speaker 1>but that's but that's good, right because then your therapist

0:34:10.160 --> 0:34:11.560
<v Speaker 1>can be like, hey, remember when you were talking about this,

0:34:11.560 --> 0:34:13.279
<v Speaker 1>and you can be like, oh, I don't fucking know

0:34:13.320 --> 0:34:15.560
<v Speaker 1>what you're talking about. Life's great, everything's amazing. Then you

0:34:15.600 --> 0:34:18.120
<v Speaker 1>go back and then it's like, especially if you already

0:34:18.120 --> 0:34:20.080
<v Speaker 1>have a therapist, man, Like I get, I understand it's

0:34:20.160 --> 0:34:22.880
<v Speaker 1>really like fucking tough out there, but like, if you

0:34:22.880 --> 0:34:25.200
<v Speaker 1>already have a therapist, you talking about this shit.

0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:25.879
<v Speaker 3>And.

0:34:27.480 --> 0:34:33.080
<v Speaker 1>You know it might help you kind of track a pattern, right,

0:34:33.239 --> 0:34:34.960
<v Speaker 1>because you're just dealing with your own thoughts on your

0:34:35.000 --> 0:34:43.319
<v Speaker 1>own fucking brand. And yeah, but so you should do that.

0:34:43.600 --> 0:34:48.520
<v Speaker 1>But in addition to doing that, I'll say it again,

0:34:48.600 --> 0:34:50.239
<v Speaker 1>you should take all the positive things you laid out.

0:34:50.239 --> 0:34:51.360
<v Speaker 1>I want to help people, I want to do this,

0:34:51.400 --> 0:34:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I want to do that, and like feverishly attack those

0:34:56.080 --> 0:34:59.439
<v Speaker 1>goals and spend all of your time, all the time

0:34:59.480 --> 0:35:02.160
<v Speaker 1>that you're spending thinking about your teacher, please try to

0:35:02.200 --> 0:35:06.319
<v Speaker 1>spend it instead thinking about the ways in which you

0:35:06.360 --> 0:35:09.080
<v Speaker 1>want to improve your life and work towards the positive

0:35:09.080 --> 0:35:11.640
<v Speaker 1>things you've told me. Do you feel like you can

0:35:11.680 --> 0:35:14.879
<v Speaker 1>do that? Yeah? Cool man.

0:35:15.840 --> 0:35:18.080
<v Speaker 2>It feels so much better getting it off my chest, though,

0:35:18.080 --> 0:35:21.480
<v Speaker 2>because anytime I talk to my mom about it, she's like, well,

0:35:21.800 --> 0:35:23.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, why do you like her more than me?

0:35:23.480 --> 0:35:26.000
<v Speaker 2>And this and this and this, And I'm like, you know,

0:35:26.760 --> 0:35:29.120
<v Speaker 2>every time I tell you how I feel, you either

0:35:29.200 --> 0:35:31.960
<v Speaker 2>yell at me or tell me how bad your life is,

0:35:32.040 --> 0:35:33.520
<v Speaker 2>and it just sucks because.

0:35:33.239 --> 0:35:34.560
<v Speaker 3>It makes me feel worse.

0:35:34.960 --> 0:35:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And it's like, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry

0:35:41.400 --> 0:35:44.000
<v Speaker 1>to hear that. I'm sorry that your mom is has

0:35:44.080 --> 0:35:46.560
<v Speaker 1>been selfish? What's the question.

0:35:49.920 --> 0:35:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Now this I'm kind of going off on, you know,

0:35:53.280 --> 0:35:55.520
<v Speaker 2>just what I've seen you post before. Well, I do

0:35:55.600 --> 0:35:58.640
<v Speaker 2>want to say that one video, that one you posted,

0:35:58.719 --> 0:36:01.759
<v Speaker 2>I can't remember the girls, but she pegged. I think

0:36:01.760 --> 0:36:06.400
<v Speaker 2>it was a Christian man. That was the funniest shit ever. Yeah, English,

0:36:06.640 --> 0:36:09.239
<v Speaker 2>I just want to know if you would like I'm

0:36:09.239 --> 0:36:12.480
<v Speaker 2>not asking you to, nor am I telling you not to,

0:36:12.800 --> 0:36:17.600
<v Speaker 2>but if you do post this anywhere, I would love

0:36:17.680 --> 0:36:20.799
<v Speaker 2>to hear what other people think about it, because, you know,

0:36:20.960 --> 0:36:23.719
<v Speaker 2>I want to know what other people think to the

0:36:23.760 --> 0:36:27.080
<v Speaker 2>point that I can get a better understanding of you know,

0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:30.319
<v Speaker 2>how how other people look at it. This is how

0:36:30.400 --> 0:36:33.120
<v Speaker 2>I look at it, and then see what my therapist,

0:36:33.320 --> 0:36:34.359
<v Speaker 2>you know, looks at it.

0:36:34.800 --> 0:36:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Are you talking about pegging or are you talking about

0:36:36.640 --> 0:36:38.200
<v Speaker 1>everything you just talked to me about of the course of.

0:36:38.120 --> 0:36:40.880

<v Speaker 1>our boy Richard. I think it's the one called I'm

0:39:31.000 --> 0:39:34.719
<v Speaker 1>Getting My Life Together at thirty five. I think it's

0:39:34.760 --> 0:39:39.640
<v Speaker 1>that one. It's either Richard or that guy Tyler. But anyway,

0:39:40.239 --> 0:39:43.920
<v Speaker 1>somebody commented saying, hey, Gek, you should be nicer to

0:39:43.960 --> 0:39:46.000
<v Speaker 1>the callers. You were a little bit of an ass

0:39:46.120 --> 0:39:47.920
<v Speaker 1>you know. They didn't say you were kind of an asshole.

0:39:48.600 --> 0:39:50.760
<v Speaker 1>They said, hey, GEK, you should be nicer to the callers.

0:39:51.600 --> 0:39:54.560
<v Speaker 1>You were kind of an asshole to that guy. And I,

0:39:54.600 --> 0:39:56.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, when I read when I read that, I

0:39:56.239 --> 0:39:57.800
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like, oh, fuck this guy, you know, it was like,

0:39:58.000 --> 0:40:00.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, what maybe I maybe I fucking will dude.

0:40:00.320 --> 0:40:05.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I am sometimes in insane moods when

0:40:05.400 --> 0:40:07.399
<v Speaker 1>I record these, so I was like, oh shit, maybe

0:40:07.440 --> 0:40:09.279
<v Speaker 1>I was being common asshole to this guy. So I

0:40:09.320 --> 0:40:12.400
<v Speaker 1>wrote back and I was like, all I wrote I

0:40:12.440 --> 0:40:15.359
<v Speaker 1>was how so because I wanted to know. I wanted

0:40:15.360 --> 0:40:17.400
<v Speaker 1>to exp I've done this before. Actually this is I

0:40:17.440 --> 0:40:21.960
<v Speaker 1>had another comment there who said, God, what did she say? Oh?

0:40:22.040 --> 0:40:26.080
<v Speaker 1>She said I gave this caller tailor terrible advice and uh.

0:40:26.200 --> 0:40:28.120
<v Speaker 1>And I wasn't like, oh fuck you, what do you

0:40:28.200 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 1>know you're on YouTube? I was like, I was genuinely curious.

0:40:31.600 --> 0:40:34.239
<v Speaker 1>I was like, what do you think? Uh, why did

0:40:34.239 --> 0:40:36.600
<v Speaker 1>you why? What did you disagree with? And she wrote

0:40:36.640 --> 0:40:38.400
<v Speaker 1>me back a whole bunch of stuff. But anyway, I'm

0:40:38.440 --> 0:40:41.719
<v Speaker 1>off traffic. Okay. Someone comments they go, hey, GEK, you're

0:40:41.719 --> 0:40:43.680
<v Speaker 1>being kind of an asshole to this guy I wrote.

0:40:43.800 --> 0:40:47.839
<v Speaker 1>How So he writes back, Ah, fuck, I'm sorry, man,

0:40:47.880 --> 0:40:49.840
<v Speaker 1>I didn't actually mean that stuff. I just wanted to

0:40:49.840 --> 0:40:57.520
<v Speaker 1>get your attention. And I was like, all right, because

0:40:57.520 --> 0:40:59.600
<v Speaker 1>I read when I read, I read shit, I think

0:40:59.600 --> 0:41:04.920
<v Speaker 1>about it. But that was kind of interesting for me

0:41:04.960 --> 0:41:08.520
<v Speaker 1>because it made me be like, Okay, ninety nine percent

0:41:08.560 --> 0:41:11.480
<v Speaker 1>of what everyone writes on the internet, they just don't

0:41:11.520 --> 0:41:14.520
<v Speaker 1>fucking mean. Like when you when you when you comment

0:41:14.600 --> 0:41:17.200
<v Speaker 1>on like a TikTok of someone and you're like, this

0:41:17.360 --> 0:41:19.320
<v Speaker 1>is cringe and you suck and you should kill yourself.

0:41:19.600 --> 0:41:22.319
<v Speaker 1>If the person that is in the TikTok, if you

0:41:22.360 --> 0:41:25.080
<v Speaker 1>were looking at their face right now, that's what you'd say.

0:41:25.120 --> 0:41:27.640
<v Speaker 1>You'd say, Ah fuck, I'm sorry. I didn't. I did

0:41:27.680 --> 0:41:33.120
<v Speaker 1>not realize you're a real human being. You only you

0:41:33.600 --> 0:41:39.680
<v Speaker 1>have existed for your entire life, and you've existed for

0:41:40.320 --> 0:41:44.000
<v Speaker 1>point zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero

0:41:44.120 --> 0:41:47.759
<v Speaker 1>zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero zero one

0:41:47.840 --> 0:41:51.640
<v Speaker 1>percent of my life. And so we're working on two

0:41:51.719 --> 0:41:57.720
<v Speaker 1>complete opposite contexts. When I'm writing, you know that you suck,

0:41:58.920 --> 0:42:04.960
<v Speaker 1>so uh, you know something to consider when you're reading

0:42:05.160 --> 0:42:06.600
<v Speaker 1>internet comments.

0:42:08.560 --> 0:42:10.200

<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's Is it like the McDonald's like apple pie

<v Speaker 3>Nice.

0:44:18.880 --> 0:44:21.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm not particularly adventurous when it comes to Panda express

0:44:21.440 --> 0:44:25.239
<v Speaker 1>I like what I like. Although here's my problem, my

0:44:25.239 --> 0:44:29.360
<v Speaker 1>problem with the Lo Maine. I'm so happy that you

0:44:29.440 --> 0:44:32.080
<v Speaker 1>asked me this question. I feel like all day I'm

0:44:32.120 --> 0:44:37.040
<v Speaker 1>just talking about intense things, which actually I like doing

0:44:38.880 --> 0:44:41.880
<v Speaker 1>some of the times. But this is this is good, Okay,

0:44:42.120 --> 0:44:46.239
<v Speaker 1>the Low Maine. It's got like onions and peppers in it.

0:44:46.320 --> 0:44:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I can hang with. I can hang with some onions.

0:44:48.880 --> 0:44:53.319
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, there's I think there's you know, there's something

0:44:53.320 --> 0:44:56.279
<v Speaker 1>I eat around. What is I think it's onions. I

0:44:56.360 --> 0:44:58.279
<v Speaker 1>like onions, but I wouldn't just like eat a whole

0:44:58.280 --> 0:44:59.759
<v Speaker 1>fuck of both of them, you know, I'd eat them

0:44:59.800 --> 0:45:02.439
<v Speaker 1>like a yeah yeah. Fairs and the onions they cut

0:45:02.440 --> 0:45:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and they put in that low mane are huge, but

0:45:06.000 --> 0:45:08.360
<v Speaker 1>the low maine is good and so kind of typically

0:45:08.960 --> 0:45:11.040
<v Speaker 1>towards the end of the meal, I just have a big,

0:45:11.800 --> 0:45:13.760
<v Speaker 1>big container of onions.

0:45:15.360 --> 0:45:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:45:15.719 --> 0:45:18.239
<v Speaker 3>I do kind of hate like a giant chunk of

0:45:18.239 --> 0:45:21.120
<v Speaker 3>any chopped vegetable when I have a bunch of mixed vegetables,

0:45:21.120 --> 0:45:24.279
<v Speaker 3>because then it's like just one giant piece. I'm not

0:45:24.320 --> 0:45:26.920
<v Speaker 3>really enjoying the mixture. I'm just enjoying the piece.

0:45:28.480 --> 0:45:31.080
<v Speaker 1>What are you uh? These people just sat through a

0:45:31.120 --> 0:45:33.360
<v Speaker 1>bunch of ads, but we're doing this one for free?

0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:36.560
<v Speaker 1>What do you get at Panda Express?

0:45:38.840 --> 0:45:41.879
<v Speaker 3>At Panda Express, I feel like most of the time

0:45:41.920 --> 0:45:45.240
<v Speaker 3>I go, I only will get like the the bowls

0:45:45.239 --> 0:45:48.360
<v Speaker 3>where it's one entree on one side, and I'll just

0:45:48.440 --> 0:45:51.200
<v Speaker 3>get I kind of switch it up between the low

0:45:51.239 --> 0:45:52.439
<v Speaker 3>maine and the fried rice.

0:45:53.280 --> 0:45:54.040
<v Speaker 1>You never do half.

0:45:55.719 --> 0:45:57.520
<v Speaker 3>I've done half in half, but then I feel like

0:45:57.520 --> 0:46:00.280
<v Speaker 3>half and half, half and half in just those bowls.

0:46:00.280 --> 0:46:03.600
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't really feel good, you.

0:46:03.520 --> 0:46:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Know, what I'm gonna agree with you. I think I

0:46:05.160 --> 0:46:07.479
<v Speaker 1>half and half is kind of the coward's way out,

0:46:07.760 --> 0:46:09.200
<v Speaker 1>like you have to really commit.

0:46:11.080 --> 0:46:16.239
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think it's fine, but I feel like if

0:46:16.239 --> 0:46:18.400
<v Speaker 3>you do half and half in the bowl, you're just

0:46:18.440 --> 0:46:23.360
<v Speaker 3>not getting like a happy amount of each. You're just

0:46:23.360 --> 0:46:25.680
<v Speaker 3>getting kind of like a sad amount of each where

0:46:25.719 --> 0:46:29.520
<v Speaker 3>you wish you had a little bit more but not enough.

0:46:30.000 --> 0:46:31.600
<v Speaker 1>What's the one entre that you get.

0:46:34.040 --> 0:46:35.759
<v Speaker 3>A lot of the time, I'll get orange chicken, but

0:46:35.840 --> 0:46:42.560
<v Speaker 3>I also like the fuck the I can't remember anymore,

0:46:43.480 --> 0:46:45.680
<v Speaker 3>but mostly orange chicken. I'm being honest. I'm kind of

0:46:45.680 --> 0:46:46.399
<v Speaker 3>basic like that.

0:46:48.239 --> 0:46:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I deeply scrabbring moons, bro, they have fucking crab grown

0:46:52.600 --> 0:46:59.719
<v Speaker 1>wounds at at a Panda Express. Yeah, do you get

0:46:59.719 --> 0:47:01.480
<v Speaker 1>the carangoons? Have you ever had one? I've never had.

0:47:01.600 --> 0:47:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever had one?

0:47:02.560 --> 0:47:02.799
<v Speaker 3>Wait?

0:47:02.840 --> 0:47:05.760
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, I'll stop, stop, stop, stop stop. They don't

0:47:05.880 --> 0:47:09.440
<v Speaker 1>have I'm sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry. They do not

0:47:10.200 --> 0:47:15.080
<v Speaker 1>have crab rangoons. At Panda Express. They have cream cheese rangoons,

0:47:15.080 --> 0:47:17.600
<v Speaker 1>which kind of sound like who gives a fuck? Actually,

0:47:17.600 --> 0:47:20.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they're good. I respect them. Only yet one

0:47:20.200 --> 0:47:23.719
<v Speaker 1>entre I wish I had that kind of discipline. Okay, Wait,

0:47:23.760 --> 0:47:26.799
<v Speaker 1>by the way, there was a second question that you

0:47:26.800 --> 0:47:28.480
<v Speaker 1>had or something. I think you said you had multiple.

0:47:31.360 --> 0:47:34.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, on a more serious note, I have a very

0:47:34.480 --> 0:47:35.960
<v Speaker 3>important exam.

0:47:35.640 --> 0:47:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Tomorrow and you're talking with me about Panda Express instead

0:47:40.040 --> 0:47:41.200
<v Speaker 1>of doing your fucking homework.

0:47:42.360 --> 0:47:46.240
<v Speaker 3>Well, study for a while, and I'm kind of tired

0:47:46.280 --> 0:47:48.680
<v Speaker 3>of studying, and I figured I'd rather not just study

0:47:48.800 --> 0:47:51.319
<v Speaker 3>all night. I kind of want to just relax for

0:47:51.400 --> 0:47:53.760
<v Speaker 3>a little bit before I take this exam.

0:47:54.239 --> 0:47:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:47:55.560 --> 0:47:57.200
<v Speaker 3>I feel like if I if I study too much,

0:47:57.239 --> 0:47:59.880
<v Speaker 3>it's just gonna overload and I'll just be like this

0:48:00.480 --> 0:48:02.680
<v Speaker 3>and then kind of not too good. What kind of

0:48:02.719 --> 0:48:08.359
<v Speaker 3>examines it to online exam to become certified as a

0:48:08.400 --> 0:48:09.400
<v Speaker 3>personal trainer?

0:48:12.320 --> 0:48:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Wow? And is Panda Express part of your uh your

0:48:18.960 --> 0:48:20.680
<v Speaker 1>your nutritionist recommendation?

0:48:22.760 --> 0:48:25.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, that'd be out of my scope of practice to

0:48:25.520 --> 0:48:28.080
<v Speaker 3>say anything on nutrition, But I wish I could tell

0:48:28.120 --> 0:48:32.240
<v Speaker 3>people more about Panda Express while training them.

0:48:32.840 --> 0:48:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Is free. I mean it's about I mean, I assume

0:48:34.920 --> 0:48:36.280
<v Speaker 1>it's like it's a good source of protein.

0:48:38.440 --> 0:48:42.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, pan Express has like good healthy choices, but I

0:48:42.239 --> 0:48:45.239
<v Speaker 3>mean most of the time you go to Panda Express, Like,

0:48:46.680 --> 0:48:49.240
<v Speaker 3>when are you getting healthy choices, they're kind of shitty.

0:48:50.360 --> 0:48:51.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean, okay, I mean, tell me what you think.

0:48:52.000 --> 0:48:54.799
<v Speaker 1>I I mean, I get the Tarioki chicken. Obviously, when

0:48:54.800 --> 0:48:56.240
<v Speaker 1>I go in there and I'm stone that I'm getting

0:48:56.239 --> 0:48:58.719
<v Speaker 1>like like when you're getting the apple pie roll, you're not.

0:48:59.120 --> 0:49:03.080
<v Speaker 1>It's not a great day. But I go like, I

0:49:03.120 --> 0:49:05.080
<v Speaker 1>feel like, okay, when I get their Tariact chicken, It's

0:49:05.120 --> 0:49:07.840
<v Speaker 1>like it's grilled. It's not for yes, they put a

0:49:07.880 --> 0:49:11.279
<v Speaker 1>lot of sugary sauce on it, but like just that

0:49:11.520 --> 0:49:18.960
<v Speaker 1>and some rice. I'm like, Okay, this can't be that unhealthy's.

0:49:16.840 --> 0:49:18.960
<v Speaker 3>I'd say that's that's pretty good. It's better than like

0:49:19.560 --> 0:49:21.319
<v Speaker 3>if you don't want to cook at home and you

0:49:21.360 --> 0:49:22.759
<v Speaker 3>make and you go out and you get that a

0:49:22.760 --> 0:49:24.880
<v Speaker 3>Pan Express. Like that's pretty solid. You did a pretty

0:49:24.880 --> 0:49:26.080
<v Speaker 3>good selection.

0:49:26.840 --> 0:49:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay. I got another question for you. Okay, when you

0:49:30.960 --> 0:49:36.360
<v Speaker 1>go to Panda Express and you get to the register

0:49:37.440 --> 0:49:39.840
<v Speaker 1>and they do this at every Panda Express, do you

0:49:41.440 --> 0:49:46.120
<v Speaker 1>round up the thirty cents to give to the Children's hospital?

0:49:46.160 --> 0:49:48.520
<v Speaker 3>Shit, No, I never do that.

0:49:48.760 --> 0:49:50.160
<v Speaker 1>You know you never do it?

0:49:51.520 --> 0:49:54.200
<v Speaker 3>Uh anywhere I go. If they asked me to round up,

0:49:54.239 --> 0:49:56.960
<v Speaker 3>I pretty much never do it one time. My I

0:49:57.000 --> 0:49:59.640
<v Speaker 3>did it once for like a single penny because I

0:49:59.680 --> 0:50:01.439
<v Speaker 3>saw it asked me to round up by a penny,

0:50:01.480 --> 0:50:03.120
<v Speaker 3>and I was like, it's fine, it's just a penny.

0:50:03.640 --> 0:50:06.640
<v Speaker 3>And then I showed the receipt to my mom because

0:50:06.640 --> 0:50:08.400
<v Speaker 3>I think I was getting something for her, and I

0:50:08.480 --> 0:50:11.640
<v Speaker 3>rounded up by a penny, and she's she saw the receipts,

0:50:11.640 --> 0:50:13.120
<v Speaker 3>saw that I rounded up and was like, well, now

0:50:13.160 --> 0:50:16.239
<v Speaker 3>I have to keep this for like a tax right off,

0:50:16.239 --> 0:50:26.000
<v Speaker 3>because you don I never thought that the penny would

0:50:26.000 --> 0:50:27.360
<v Speaker 3>really matter. I thought we'd just move on.

0:50:28.440 --> 0:50:30.680
<v Speaker 1>That's really funny. That's just keeping the receipt for the

0:50:30.719 --> 0:50:31.359
<v Speaker 1>tax right off.

0:50:32.880 --> 0:50:35.520
<v Speaker 3>She doesn't. I always love to give my mom every

0:50:35.560 --> 0:50:39.439
<v Speaker 3>receipt this cause wait down. You know those apps where

0:50:39.440 --> 0:50:42.399
<v Speaker 3>you can like scan your receipt and you can get

0:50:42.440 --> 0:50:44.640
<v Speaker 3>points and eventually, like get enough points, you get a

0:50:44.640 --> 0:50:45.560
<v Speaker 3>gift card or something.

0:50:45.880 --> 0:50:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Are we about to do another ad? No, I've never

0:50:52.320 --> 0:50:54.520
<v Speaker 1>I've never heard of these apps. What are these I have? No,

0:50:54.560 --> 0:50:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I haven't heard of them.

0:50:55.719 --> 0:50:58.960
<v Speaker 3>Tell me, okay, so there are these apps that I

0:50:58.960 --> 0:51:02.880
<v Speaker 3>don't use. My mom is and you can do surveys

0:51:03.000 --> 0:51:06.880
<v Speaker 3>as well as scanning your receipt from like basically wherever

0:51:06.920 --> 0:51:10.160
<v Speaker 3>you go and you can get points for them, and eventually,

0:51:10.160 --> 0:51:12.640
<v Speaker 3>once you get enough points, you can get gift cards.

0:51:13.920 --> 0:51:16.239
<v Speaker 3>But it's like you gotta like do a lot of

0:51:16.239 --> 0:51:17.759
<v Speaker 3>spending to get a gift card.

0:51:18.200 --> 0:51:20.000
<v Speaker 1>It's so far. I'm gonna put like an ad read

0:51:20.320 --> 0:51:22.360
<v Speaker 1>right before this call, and so they're just gonna go

0:51:22.400 --> 0:51:26.120
<v Speaker 1>from ad reads to even more ads. I've been No,

0:51:26.200 --> 0:51:27.800
<v Speaker 1>I haven't heard I haven't heard of these. Well, I

0:51:27.800 --> 0:51:29.680
<v Speaker 1>guess we didn't say any of the n app's names,

0:51:29.920 --> 0:51:33.600
<v Speaker 1>but no, I've never heard of them. Damn. Maybe I

0:51:33.600 --> 0:51:35.839
<v Speaker 1>should have been keeping my receipt because I'll I'll round

0:51:35.920 --> 0:51:40.600
<v Speaker 1>up when it's like sixty seven cents. But yeah, I'm like, yeah, whatever,

0:51:40.800 --> 0:51:43.000
<v Speaker 1>round up. Sometimes sometimes they'll get me. I just feel

0:51:43.040 --> 0:51:45.040
<v Speaker 1>like a dick every time I don't. Here's Here's what's

0:51:45.040 --> 0:51:47.400
<v Speaker 1>funny though, is when you do it, they like they

0:51:47.440 --> 0:51:51.759
<v Speaker 1>there's like a there's like a bell that they press. Yeah,

0:51:51.840 --> 0:51:55.120
<v Speaker 1>that makes me uncomfortable, like like you like like when

0:51:55.120 --> 0:51:56.640
<v Speaker 1>I round Like when they're like, hey, do you want

0:51:56.640 --> 0:51:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to ride up ten cents? And I'm like sure, and

0:51:58.480 --> 0:52:01.800
<v Speaker 1>they're like look at this guy. I'm like, yeah, you

0:52:01.840 --> 0:52:04.319
<v Speaker 1>don't need to do that what were you gonna say, do.

0:52:04.239 --> 0:52:08.040
<v Speaker 3>You uh uh? So do you round up only when

0:52:08.080 --> 0:52:10.839
<v Speaker 3>someone asks you? Or do you round up when like

0:52:10.960 --> 0:52:13.480
<v Speaker 3>you're doing something on electronic device and no one there

0:52:13.520 --> 0:52:15.360
<v Speaker 3>is to like pressure you.

0:52:15.400 --> 0:52:18.600
<v Speaker 1>No, it asks me on the thing. And I don't think, no,

0:52:18.719 --> 0:52:20.640
<v Speaker 1>it's never it's never a human being asking me. It's

0:52:20.680 --> 0:52:23.520
<v Speaker 1>just it's the thing asking me. Although I am like, okay,

0:52:23.560 --> 0:52:26.799
<v Speaker 1>I'll do that, right, because it's like whatever, sixty seven cents, Yeah,

0:52:26.800 --> 0:52:30.560
<v Speaker 1>you can have my sixty seven cents. But I do

0:52:30.840 --> 0:52:39.080
<v Speaker 1>wonder because like giant corporations are never altruistic, right, like

0:52:39.080 --> 0:52:41.839
<v Speaker 1>like like like when I go to McDonald, so it'll

0:52:41.880 --> 0:52:45.359
<v Speaker 1>be like round up for the uh whatever, Ronald McDonald house,

0:52:45.400 --> 0:52:46.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, the ron McDonald house.

0:52:48.840 --> 0:52:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Uh sure, sure, cool.

0:52:51.280 --> 0:52:55.600
<v Speaker 1>It's like it's like it's like their charity. And when

0:52:55.600 --> 0:52:57.960
<v Speaker 1>you go to mcdonal times it'll ask you to round up,

0:52:58.120 --> 0:53:02.280
<v Speaker 1>however many sense to give to the Ronald McDonald charity,

0:53:02.320 --> 0:53:05.640
<v Speaker 1>and it's like the the logo is like his clown

0:53:05.760 --> 0:53:13.600
<v Speaker 1>hands giving and oh yeah, and so I'll occasionally I'll

0:53:13.680 --> 0:53:16.719
<v Speaker 1>round it up and uh but I'm thinking, I'm like,

0:53:16.960 --> 0:53:22.520
<v Speaker 1>there's no fucking way that McDonald's and Pana Express are like,

0:53:23.960 --> 0:53:26.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, let's just do something nice for the kids. Like,

0:53:26.560 --> 0:53:28.719
<v Speaker 1>there's no fucking way. There's gotta be. There's gotta be

0:53:28.880 --> 0:53:31.320
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know what it is. Maybe John Oliver

0:53:31.520 --> 0:53:33.399
<v Speaker 1>can do a thing on it or whatever the fuck,

0:53:33.440 --> 0:53:39.440
<v Speaker 1>but but there's gotta be something that is still like

0:53:39.520 --> 0:53:41.320
<v Speaker 1>the money is going to help them. I don't know

0:53:41.360 --> 0:53:42.960
<v Speaker 1>if it's like a tax right off, but.

0:53:43.440 --> 0:53:44.880
<v Speaker 3>I bet it is a tax, right If I was

0:53:44.920 --> 0:53:45.919
<v Speaker 3>just about to ask you that.

0:53:46.120 --> 0:53:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's probably just like a tax. It's probably just like, oh,

0:53:49.120 --> 0:53:52.879
<v Speaker 1>let's get more of their money so that we can

0:53:53.520 --> 0:53:56.319
<v Speaker 1>write it off as I mean, maybe I'll stop, Maybe

0:53:56.440 --> 0:53:57.719
<v Speaker 1>maybe I should stop rounding it.

0:53:57.719 --> 0:54:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Up, because then if you round it up, then McDonald's

0:54:02.719 --> 0:54:05.480
<v Speaker 3>and pan Express can say, oh, we donated like two

0:54:05.480 --> 0:54:09.440
<v Speaker 3>million to charity this year. But really it's like it's you, you.

0:54:09.440 --> 0:54:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Know what, I might start keeping my receipts so that

0:54:14.160 --> 0:54:15.719
<v Speaker 1>I get the right off and they don't, or I

0:54:15.719 --> 0:54:17.439
<v Speaker 1>guess we both get it right off. But why should

0:54:17.440 --> 0:54:18.960
<v Speaker 1>they get a fucking right off They didn't do it? Well,

0:54:19.000 --> 0:54:21.080
<v Speaker 1>hold on, that doesn't make any sense, though, Why should

0:54:21.080 --> 0:54:23.200
<v Speaker 1>they get the fucking right off? Only one of us

0:54:23.680 --> 0:54:25.719
<v Speaker 1>hold on. Okay, now I'm thinking about this. Now, I'm

0:54:25.719 --> 0:54:27.560
<v Speaker 1>thinking about this because I didn't even think about that

0:54:27.640 --> 0:54:30.000
<v Speaker 1>with your mom, with the receipt and everything. If I

0:54:30.160 --> 0:54:34.200
<v Speaker 1>round up my sixty seven cents and I write that

0:54:34.360 --> 0:54:39.080
<v Speaker 1>spending off on my taxes, can the company also write

0:54:39.080 --> 0:54:43.080
<v Speaker 1>that ship off on their taxes? Because that's because then

0:54:43.120 --> 0:54:45.360
<v Speaker 1>that money is being written off twice in the in

0:54:45.400 --> 0:54:45.880
<v Speaker 1>the system.

0:54:46.840 --> 0:54:47.239
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmm.

0:54:47.960 --> 0:54:50.319
<v Speaker 1>There's God, there's something fishy going on about this.

0:54:50.719 --> 0:54:51.520
<v Speaker 3>Something wrong there.

0:54:51.760 --> 0:54:56.839
<v Speaker 1>There's something going on. Yeah, there's definitely something going on

0:54:56.880 --> 0:54:58.759
<v Speaker 1>at the at the fron McDonald house. I don't know

0:54:58.760 --> 0:54:59.200
<v Speaker 1>what it is.

0:55:01.640 --> 0:55:04.080
<v Speaker 3>There's definitely something. I feel like if if they let you,

0:55:05.480 --> 0:55:08.360
<v Speaker 3>if they put it up there, it's definitely benefiting them somehow.

0:55:09.440 --> 0:55:11.040
<v Speaker 3>So I feel like the write off has to be

0:55:11.080 --> 0:55:13.640
<v Speaker 3>a thing for them. I feel like you can't just

0:55:13.680 --> 0:55:16.960
<v Speaker 3>be like an image thing because most about food fast

0:55:16.960 --> 0:55:20.680
<v Speaker 3>food places just have the image of the food itself

0:55:20.680 --> 0:55:21.200
<v Speaker 3>and that's it.

0:55:22.719 --> 0:55:24.359
<v Speaker 1>What do you get when you go to McDonald's.

0:55:26.640 --> 0:55:30.919
<v Speaker 3>Usually, uh, they have that five dollars meal. I got

0:55:30.920 --> 0:55:33.000
<v Speaker 3>that a few times, but usually I just get like

0:55:33.880 --> 0:55:37.360
<v Speaker 3>two mc chickens and then I'll do their online coupon

0:55:37.520 --> 0:55:39.879
<v Speaker 3>for like a dollar large fry.

0:55:40.239 --> 0:55:44.759
<v Speaker 1>No bev no bet you you you you do it.

0:55:44.719 --> 0:55:47.319
<v Speaker 3>All raw, got beds at home?

0:55:48.560 --> 0:55:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Wow? Okay?

0:55:49.160 --> 0:55:50.160
<v Speaker 3>What you are?

0:55:50.200 --> 0:55:52.120
<v Speaker 1>You a water guy? You dye coke? What are we doing?

0:55:54.960 --> 0:55:57.920
<v Speaker 3>Water? For sure? But also like a big big like

0:55:58.000 --> 0:56:01.640
<v Speaker 3>PEPSI zero coke zero guy? Not really a diet coke guy.

0:56:02.480 --> 0:56:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm interesting. Interesting.

0:56:06.800 --> 0:56:09.840
<v Speaker 3>Diet coke doesn't taste like coke, but coke zero it

0:56:09.880 --> 0:56:10.560
<v Speaker 3>tastes like coke.

0:56:12.600 --> 0:56:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Di coke doesn't taste like coke, but coke zero tastes

0:56:15.239 --> 0:56:17.520
<v Speaker 1>like coke. I was thinking today, I was wondering what

0:56:17.520 --> 0:56:19.640
<v Speaker 1>the differences between diet coke and coke zero. I have

0:56:19.680 --> 0:56:21.600
<v Speaker 1>no idea.

0:56:23.040 --> 0:56:25.719
<v Speaker 3>I think coke zero doesn't have caffeine in it, but

0:56:25.760 --> 0:56:26.479
<v Speaker 3>I might be wrong.

0:56:26.520 --> 0:56:28.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know coke zero has. Guy, I really I

0:56:28.880 --> 0:56:31.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, someone in the comments, let me let us

0:56:31.520 --> 0:56:33.560
<v Speaker 1>know if you have the answers to any of these questions.

0:56:33.560 --> 0:56:35.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm really curus. I've always wondered what the difference is

0:56:35.719 --> 0:56:38.360
<v Speaker 1>between diet coke and coke zero because there's no such no,

0:56:38.400 --> 0:56:43.280
<v Speaker 1>there's caffeine and coke zero. They have diet caffeine free coke.

0:56:44.680 --> 0:56:47.200
<v Speaker 1>That stuff's the best, because you know, sometimes I want

0:56:47.200 --> 0:56:48.520
<v Speaker 1>a diet soda in the middle of the night, but

0:56:48.520 --> 0:56:49.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to be uh, you know, up up

0:56:50.040 --> 0:56:51.160
<v Speaker 1>until the wee hours of the morning.

0:56:51.680 --> 0:56:53.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, for sure.

0:56:55.840 --> 0:56:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Well this was a great way to fill thirteen minutes

0:56:59.040 --> 0:56:59.800
<v Speaker 1>of this podcast.

0:57:02.040 --> 0:57:03.239
<v Speaker 3>Is this going on the podcast?

0:57:04.120 --> 0:57:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Going on the podcast?

0:57:04.920 --> 0:57:06.640
<v Speaker 3>This is? Yeah?

<v Speaker 3>towards the end of the cough this could go on

0:57:14.840 --> 0:57:15.560
<v Speaker 3>the podcast or not?

0:57:15.880 --> 0:57:17.200
<v Speaker 1>It was absolutely, big fan.

0:57:18.200 --> 0:57:21.680
<v Speaker 3>I worked a summer job at Walmart and your podcast

0:57:21.800 --> 0:57:25.120
<v Speaker 3>like saved my life at this Walmarts. Man, it made it.

0:57:25.120 --> 0:57:25.960
