Just passing through. Yeah, okay, 281 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 2: what are you gonna do? Well, now, I know if 282 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 2: they your car gets stolen, they will eventually be like, 283 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 2: you have got to pay those. 284 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 3: So we're sure it wasn't towed. 285 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 2: Yes, they checked like all the toe yard things and 286 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: like check with the police. And then two weeks I 287 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 2: think later, they found like my back bumper and some 288 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 2: of the stuff that was inside my car, just like 289 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 2: on the street. And they said, because of all the 290 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: rain we were getting that people were stealing cars just 291 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 2: to like sleep in them. Oh interesting, Yeah, because it's 292 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 2: you know, better than a tent in the rain. So 293 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 2: they were like, it might turn up, you might get 294 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 2: lucky and someone's just like been camping in it for 295 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 2: a bit. And I was like, okay, I'll hold out 296 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 2: hope like that. Okay, you know, I honestly don't mind that. 297 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 3: But this is the thing. You don't want to find 298 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 3: your car after someone's been care You just want the 299 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 3: insurance to say for the story. I just want the 300 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 3: insurance to get the car back after somebody's probably used 301 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 3: it as a bathroom. 302 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, and a shot. You know, then you have to 303 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 2: drive around at that point, just keep it to you. 304 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 2: It's yours, it's your house, it's your house, it's yours. 305 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 2: It's fine. My insurance will take care of it. But 306 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 2: I have been using just a mix of like uber 307 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 2: and like you know, get around rental cars walking. I 308 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 2: don't understand LA without a car. Honestly, it can be 309 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: a rough time. I do. 310 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 3: I will walk, but I feel like people are worried 311 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 3: about me. When I'm walking long distances. I feel like 312 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 3: cars are passing me, like that's somebody who's up to something. Yeah, 313 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 3: because nobody's ever. 314 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 2: Doing Yeah, no one's ever walking. And I feel like 315 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 2: they're like, if you're not running, like you're exercising, what 316 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 2: are you doing? What's your scam? 317 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: And I simply won't be running. Yeah, so if you 318 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 3: if I can't saunter, I won't be doing anything, not 319 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 3: at all. So does your is your insurance covering the car? 320 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? Oh so it's that's all taken care of, but 321 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 2: it's slow. They had to wait for the police to 322 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 2: be like reinvestigated it's just it's gone, which I think 323 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 2: was just the cops being like, we looked around in 324 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 2: our garage and we didn't see a yellow hond to 325 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 2: fit there. So I love my I love that car, 326 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 2: and it's so tiny it doesn't get in the way. 327 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 3: I know. It's such a great car's perfect. 328 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 2: Love it. Yeah, if they're listening, please sponsor me give 329 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: me a new one for free. Maybe, But the cops 330 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 2: were just kind of like, yeah, we did our best, 331 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 2: didn't find it.

You know that I'm 506 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 2: bringing this because it's what we're supposed to do. So 507 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 2: I just threw it in a bag. Which is how 508 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 2: all my friends have ever gotten gifts for me? Is 509 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 2: they just like she throws it in a bag, and 510 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 2: then she's gonna be like, give me the bag bag. 511 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 3: I think that's a healthy attitude. 512 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, So to me, it's I you know, it's what 513 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 2: matters is how useful it is, right and the item, 514 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 2: you know, the packaging that you know, that's. 515 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 3: The cover that look beyond that.

This 517 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 3: podcast is for children. It's useless. 518 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 2: It's pointless. You say, no gift.

Even if it will ever? See? 525 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 2: Should I open it here on the podcast? I think 526 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 2: you should.

Should they come out in 528 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 2: any specific world? No? No, Because I felt like I 529 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: as a as a TV person. You know, that's my 530 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 2: big passion.

And it shows like her rise 942 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 2: to that, which was basically her going to thrift stores, 943 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 2: buying stuff and reselling it at a higher price.

And 945 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 2: it's basically like halfway through you think it kind of 946 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:09,959 Speaker 2: feels like everyone just kind of looks at each other like, wait, 947 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 2: why is this a show? 948 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 3: And no, remind me was it was the title officially 949 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,839 Speaker 3: hashtag girl boss? Or am I imagined basically. 950 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 2: This hashtag girl But I do believe it was that 951 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 2: period of time when the hashtag was being used in 952 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 2: a title. It's hard to admit these days, we don't 953 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:29,800 Speaker 2: like to tell people that, but there was a time 954 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 2: you would just a full network streaming platform, cable channel 955 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 2: would put a hashtag in front of a front of 956 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 2: a title. 957 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 3: Oh boy, I feel like I would actually have a 958 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,439 Speaker 3: great time watching that show now, because there's no way 959 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:43,320 Speaker 3: that's an age twelve. 960 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 2: No, absolutely not. I mean I think at the time 961 00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 2: I kind of remember being like, this is a bit 962 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 2: too pass because it's trying to capture that like indie 963 00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 2: sleeze era. Oh right, and there hasn't been any media 964 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 2: that's done that well catching sleezes sleeezes. 965 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of in the air on the bathroom 966 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 3: floor and don't capture. 967 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 2: Still capture, And it was just a bit too clean cut. 968 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 2: It wasn't vice enough. 969 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, that makes sense to me. It was a corporate 970 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 3: sleeve which doesn't work. 971 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 2: It doesn't work. It was just didn't get it. But 972 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 2: I do think it would probably make for a fun 973 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:20,239 Speaker 2: drinking game. 974 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I said, maybe I'm going to dive into that's 975 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,919 Speaker 3: my new show. I'm going to be recommending the hashtag girls. 976 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 2: I feel like I wouldn't be shocked if that's one 977 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,480 Speaker 2: of those shows. Netflix was like, we just took it off. 978 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 3: Yeah that makes sense. Well I like that.

You can't take someone seriously 1296 01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 3: who uses TikTok. You can't get advice in life from 1297 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:19,440 Speaker 3: someone who uses TikTok. They've already made a mistake. They 1298 01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:20,080 Speaker 3: use TikTok. 1299 01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 2: And not only that, not in like a way we 1300 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 2: all use it where we just have an account that 1301 01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 2: we just kind of don't really use, or we just 1302 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 2: like promote stuff, but we're mostly like looking at people 1303 01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:30,439 Speaker 2: create content. They have a following, so that means they're 1304 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:33,320 Speaker 2: good at it, and that's not okay. If someone that's not. 1305 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 3: Okay, they're using part of their time too, yeah, to get. 1306 01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:40,480 Speaker 2: Good at TikTok, and that doesn't sit well with me, 1307 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 2: And that means they're probably gonna use you for content 1308 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 2: at some point, Like they're definitely talking about you in 1309 01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,479 Speaker 2: some kind of like like I don't know, group chat 1310 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:50,920 Speaker 2: TikTok of other therapists being like this person. 1311 01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:55,800 Speaker 3: Sucks, actually wrong. Every professional in your life should have 1312 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 3: a large TikTok following.

Gift or a curse 1333 01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:56,880 Speaker 3: leaving the foil lid on the cream cheese after it's 1334 01:01:56,920 --> 01:01:57,880 Speaker 3: already been open. 1335 01:01:58,760 --> 01:02:05,560 Speaker 2: Oh oh, this one's a little difficult. I I'm going 1336 01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 2: to go with curse because I feel like you can 1337 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 2: never You now know that people do that, They never 1338 01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,640 Speaker 2: get all of the cream cheese off of the foil, 1339 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:17,760 Speaker 2: so then it gets hard and crusty on that part, 1340 01:02:17,800 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 2: So then it's touching the like fresh cream cheese that 1341 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 2: like has it's still in the bottom. So I feel 1342 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:26,800 Speaker 2: like it's it seems like it's a carrying move, but 1343 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 2: it actually degrades the experience. 1344 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, And you're absolutely correct, Thank you. You've got 1345 01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 3: to get that out of there.

I feel like I 1397 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:06,680 Speaker 2: would give grandparents the same the way I give a child. 1398 01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:08,360 Speaker 2: You know, like when there's a little girl who just 1399 01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:10,439 Speaker 2: dumps all the flowers at once and then just goes 1400 01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:12,240 Speaker 2: and sits down. I would be fine with that. 1401 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:15,560 Speaker 3: Okay, that I mean that I could be on board 1402 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 3: with a yeah grandma just dumping things on the ground. 1403 01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 2: Dumping it and like I did it, you know, Or 1404 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 2: like when it's like the dog who has the ring 1405 01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 2: and it just like kind of walks up there but 1406 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 2: never really makes it all the way and finally the 1407 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 2: groom is just like it ah, yeah, and just like 1408 01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:28,800 Speaker 2: gets the ring. 1409 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:32,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, Grandpa swallows the ring.

It 1414 01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:43,000 Speaker 2: still feels good. 1415 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 3: Your garbage day is not ruined, well decently played.

Neither of us 1417 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:50,360 Speaker 3: got mad. 1418 01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:52,480 Speaker 2: And I do see your point on those issues. I 1419 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 2: en retro. Yeah, they're stealing jobs from children. Ye, and 1420 01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:59,480 Speaker 2: as someone child labor exactly. Yeah. 1421 01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 3: I feel like there's some state that's currently trying to 1422 01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 3: get children working. 1423 01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:04,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, like Tennessee.

It is one 1426 01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:12,280 Speaker 3: of those. It's a state that's making the wrong choice. 1427 01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 3: That's ultimately the problem here. Okay, we're at the final 1428 01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:18,919 Speaker 3: segment of the podcast. I said no emails. People write 1429 01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:21,760 Speaker 3: into I said no gifts at gmail dot com with 1430 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 3: their questions. My listeners have questions.

The problem 1436 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:42,960 Speaker 3: is that everything she buys for me is something I 1437 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:46,000 Speaker 3: would have never picked out for myself. And more often 1438 01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 3: than not, the gifts are just just lay around unused. 1439 01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:50,919 Speaker 3: I don't have the heart to tell her I don't 1440 01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:53,040 Speaker 3: like them, so I just say thank you and change 1441 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:55,560 Speaker 3: the subject.
