Okay, Mike, I need updates 151 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 3: on life. How's your wife? Kell's see, how is life 152 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 3: in general? Any new things going on? 153 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: We are good right now. I think I've been focused 154 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: on the word I told you was going to be 155 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: my word of the year. Invest Yeah, and I've been 156 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: taking time to invest in myself. And I think it's 157 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: because in this industry, in any industry, you go through 158 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: burnout where you just feel like, man, I'm doing the 159 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: same thing over and over again. Everything's still great, but 160 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: I kind of feel like I want to do some 161 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: more things that are for me, and I think I've 162 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: done that in the last month of focusing on the 163 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: things I've been wanting to do for a while, and 164 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,840 Speaker 1: that has been primarily with my podcast and trying to 165 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: branch out a little more. 166 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 3: So. 167 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: I've taken on some events that I never thought I 168 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: would do, Like I hosted my first movie screening. I 169 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: saw that, which was kind of taking myself out of 170 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: my comfort zone, but also what I'm comfortable with because 171 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: I've spent time on a stage. I've done things like that, 172 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: just not in that capacity. So it was nerve wracking 173 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: but also comforting At the same time. Yeah, And I 174 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: think just taking time to do things like that, it's 175 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: kind of how I break out of that burnout of 176 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: feeling like, Okay, I still have all these other things 177 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: I need to do, but I kind of have to 178 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: prioritize some time for things that I want to do 179 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: that make me feel like alive, because I think we 180 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: just start doing things over and over again and we're like, man, like, 181 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: I feel like I haven't done anything for myself in 182 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: a while. It still works, though, so I'm still doing 183 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: things like career driven, but it just kind of feels 184 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: like afresh, just like ah, this feels good again. 185 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you becoming that routine of the work to live 186 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 3: rather than like living and working, and. 187 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 2: It's not a fun place to be. 188 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 3: When that starts to happen, you feel like you're missing 189 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 3: out on a lot of life and you're like things 190 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 3: are just passing you by, and you wake up it's 191 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 3: like three years later and you've missed everything that happens. 192 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, the time passing is just crazy when you get 193 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: older and you just see like man, years have gone by, 194 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: Like what do I have to show for it? Yeah, So, 195 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: in like the last month, I've kind of just been 196 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: just focused on that doing more interviews with my podcast, 197 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: which is something I've just been trying to get better at, 198 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: and I just find myself at times feeling like I 199 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: suck at it, but I know that I need the 200 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: reps to be able to do it more. 201 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: So, you feel like you suck at interviews? 202 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I feel like I suck at everything anything 203 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: I do on my own. I feel like I suck 204 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: at and you. 205 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 3: Don't let me reassure you that you don't. Your interviews 206 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 3: are awesome and you're great at what you do. But 207 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 3: I also understand like this, uh it's called imposter syndrome. 208 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't even know if exact exactly if it's 209 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: imposter syndrome. I just feel that I'm somebody who gets 210 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: so prepared, like I'm over prepared for an interview. I 211 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: read all about the person for me, I have to 212 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: watch a movie for every interview, which I love to do, 213 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: and that's like my favorite thing. And I feel like 214 00:08:58,480 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: I get in my head too much of like, oh, 215 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: I have all these perfect questions I want to ask, 216 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: and then in the moment, I'm like I lose myself 217 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: and I'm like I don't know how I take how 218 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,719 Speaker 1: I feel about things and translate it back into here 219 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: without me sounding like an idiot, or without me getting 220 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: to everything, or without me feeling like I didn't have 221 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: a good conversation at the end of it. So I 222 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: still feel like there's a learning thing I need to 223 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: get over in that process. When I listen back to them, 224 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 1: I'm like, Oh, it's not as bad as a fella 225 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 1: in the moment, Like in the moment, I feel like, oh, 226 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: I'm ruining this right now, and then later I listen 227 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 1: back or cut clips from it, and I'm like, Oh, 228 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: it's actually not bad. 229 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 3: I feel like there's two things I've really learned when 230 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 3: it's come to interviews, and one being you. 231 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 2: Can never be weird for geeking out. 232 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 3: People love when people geek out, even if it's over 233 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 3: them or over something they did. Like. People love seeing 234 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 3: people being passionate, especially if it's about things that like 235 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 3: there's similar things that they're also passionate about. 236 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 2: So I don't feel like. 237 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 3: You're ever gonna look stupid for like sharing your feelings 238 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 3: and thoughts as you're like processing something. I think that's 239 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 3: one thing that's kind of a misconception about interviews because 240 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 3: we especially when, especially for you, you're gonna get actors and 241 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 3: these people that you've probably looked up to or watched 242 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 3: a lot of their stuff. I think so much of 243 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 3: what they do as an artist wants to be seen 244 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 3: in that way. They'd rather someone be so excited and 245 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 3: passionate or like have a lot of questions about what 246 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 3: they've done, then somebody who just comes to and says, 247 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 3: this is really cool, you did a good job. 248 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: Can you tell me why you came up with that? 249 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? So you can never not 250 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: geek out enough. 251 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 3: And two, throwing out the questions is sometimes better and 252 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 3: just allowing yourself to have a conversation with another like 253 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 3: human being and just existing within that moment rather than 254 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 3: being like, I have to hit all of these things, 255 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 3: whether it's for fans of the movie or fans of 256 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 3: a certain type of thing that's that person is involved with. 257 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 3: Like sometimes throwing out that role book of these are 258 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 3: important things to get to. 259 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: Is necessary to get to, like a really good interview. 260 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 3: There's been times where I've like prepped for interviews and 261 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 3: it will just go in a completely different direction. 262 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 2: And it's worth it. 263 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 3: It's always been worth it, and never once where I 264 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 3: was like, dang, I should have stayed on my track. 265 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 3: I was like, no, we got somewhere so much better 266 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 3: and so much deeper. So those two things are things 267 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 3: that I feel like I've really learned in interviews. 268 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 2: I don't know if that helps at all. 269 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: That's good advice because I think listening to you say 270 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: that and thinking of like how I would go into 271 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: some of these is I would try to emulate some 272 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: of the people I like a little bit too much, 273 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: because there's some interviewers that I like that get to 274 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: the point really quickly and ask questions that I'm like, ah, like, 275 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 1: that's just a great formulated question, And I think I've 276 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: tried to do that too much, where I'm like, I 277 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: need to scale it back because I need to think 278 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: about how I approach even how I talk about movie 279 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: where it's more from a place of passion in a 280 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: place of like how things make me feel. I was like, 281 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: I got to focus on that more. I got to 282 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: stop trying to be the guy who's going to ask 283 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: questions that is going to like rattle them or blow 284 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: their minds a little bit of like, oh, he went 285 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: into this amount of depth for this question. I think 286 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: I got to get away from that and just talk 287 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: how I talk about stuff on my podcast. 288 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, because it's also hard. 289 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 3: Sometimes getting to the point leaves out a lot of 290 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 3: the like vulnerable good moments. Sometimes when you just make 291 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 3: him like get to this like very like yes, it 292 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 3: may be deep and maybe like, oh I've never heard 293 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 3: that question before, But most of the time when you 294 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 3: allow them to just like be passionate and excited that 295 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 3: you end up getting stuff that they would never say 296 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: anyway because they're excited and they're passionate. 297 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you nailed it right there. I'm always 298 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: trying to like, I think that's the best thing as 299 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: an interviewer is somebody saying I've never been asked that before, 300 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: and I've been chasing that too much, where I'm like, 301 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: I'm getting way too specific. I'm just trying too hard 302 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: in that capacity. Yeah, I need to just ask them. 303 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 1: Sometimes it feels like you're not trying as hard when 304 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 1: you ask more simple questions. But sometimes I probably just 305 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: keeping it simple just helps it breathe a little bit. 306 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I don't think here's the thing too, Like 307 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 3: there is probably a side of this where you're interviewing 308 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 3: people who are on these circuits and they're getting so 309 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 3: many of the same questions. 310 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 2: But I think when you get. 311 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 3: To geek out is when you start asking questions that 312 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 3: they've never heard. Because so many of those people who 313 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 3: are in those circuits are in the media and they're 314 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 3: not watching or they're not really in depth into the 315 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 3: movie space. They're probably more involved with them as an 316 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 3: actor or as a person. So them getting to like 317 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 3: really geek out about like their art and their project 318 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: is going to be something that they're not having much 319 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 3: experience with already. So you leaning into that side, I 320 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 3: think is gonna accomplish that without trying. I don't know 321 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,559 Speaker 3: if that makes any sense. It does since in my brain, 322 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 3: as obviously. 323 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: It does, because that is the battle I have is 324 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: they are on circuits where they're doing one after another 325 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: for two to three hours, and I'm like, they're probably 326 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: burnt by the time they get to me. They've been 327 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: answering the same question over and over. But there are 328 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: certain questions I need to get that I feel are 329 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: the best representation. I'm like, gosh, how do you do it? 330 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: And then I also get shorter amounts of time. It's 331 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: like ten fifteen minutes most times because they are in 332 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: these circuits and it's like very limited. So I'm like, 333 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: I gotta just come right out of the gate and 334 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: try to get something out of them quickly. 335 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think maybe more of a strategy. It's like 336 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 3: you ask your two things that you have to ask for, 337 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: like necessity, and then you just start geeking out, especially 338 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 3: if you love something, if you watch something and you 339 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 3: were so excited about it. 340 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: I know there's sometimes you watch no, it wasn't very good, 341 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 2: but you watch. 342 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 3: Something you get excited about it, and you have an 343 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 3: interview with one of them be excited about it. I 344 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 3: think we get so caught up in this idea of 345 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 3: like trying to work in other people's perceptions, and the 346 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 3: best interviews are always the ones or you just be 347 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 3: who you are and allow that to come through. 348 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 2: Those are the ones that are people enjoy listening to too. 349 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: That is something somebody asked me recently on I think 350 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: they do a dm me on Instagram is what do 351 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: you do if you don't like the movie they did? 352 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 353 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 1: I find that I've been lucky that most everybody I've 354 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: interviewed I've actually enjoyed their work is because I find. 355 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: If I don't, I usually won't take it because it's 356 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: really hard when it's so focused on the movie to 357 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: not like it. It come from a place and it 358 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: depends because I feel like I could find something in 359 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: anything even if I didn't like the movie. I could 360 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: find something of the elements of filmmaking or other work 361 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: that they've done that I could ask them about without 362 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 1: me saying that I didn't like this movie. It's really 363 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: hard to do, so I don't normally do that. But 364 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: for the most part, I think there's something you can 365 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: find in anything even if the project is bad. But 366 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: I won't lie and say that I liked the movie 367 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: that I didn't like and I won't give it a 368 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: good review if I did it, I just kind of 369 00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: will tiptoe around it. 370 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like other ways to talk about different. 371 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: Pieces because also like somebody will like it, Like if 372 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: I don't like it, somebody else will like it. And 373 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: I think that's always the perspective I try to give 374 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 1: in my reviews, like I hated this, but if you 375 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: like so and so, you might enjoy it. So I 376 00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: don't try to ruin other people from enjoying something. I 377 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: just give you my honest opinion. 378 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, you and I have had various like opposite reviews 379 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 3: on a lot of things, but every time I'm like, no, 380 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 3: I respect it, Like that's a fair point. 381 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 2: But also I still feel the way that I feel. 382 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: I think that's why I like doing this is because 383 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: it is subjective. Like just because I say I like 384 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: something doesn't mean that that thing is actually good. Yeah, 385 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: you could watch it and hate it. That's why I 386 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: enjoy and I enjoy the debate of people who like 387 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: something that I don't like or don't like something that 388 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: I like. That's what makes it fun. And also, like 389 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: when you're talking about movies, it doesn't feel as rage 390 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: feel when you're like arguing about politics or something, because 391 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: it's like nobody's right here. It's it's all fiction. Yeah, 392 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna yeah, there's no real true it's all opinion. 393 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's not a lot of like you don't have 394 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 3: like punishment for feeling how you feel. Okay, we're gonna 395 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 3: take a quick break. We're gonna come back and get 396 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 3: some more updates from Mike. We got on a little 397 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 3: rant there about movies and topics, which I know is 398 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 3: fun for you to always talk about but I know, 399 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 3: like you also have your own podcast about that, so 400 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 3: I try and avoid it. I do want to hear 401 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 3: about like your wife, how are things going with your wife? 402 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 3: And other stuff outside of work. 403 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 2: We focus on work, let's focus outside of work. 404 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: Outside of work, she is trying to convince me we 405 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: need to get a dog every single day. 406 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, you still haven't caved. 407 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 1: Still haven't caved. But I'm closer to it, okay, because 408 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 1: I think she makes really good points of she just 409 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: wants somebody who because she works from home four out 410 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: of the five days of the week. She's like, I 411 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: just need somebody here to like hang out with me. Yeah, 412 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: And I think I'm at that point where I could 413 00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: see it, because. 414 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 2: What's your hold up so far? 415 00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: The only thing is like right now, I like the 416 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 1: ability for us to be able to leave on a whim. 417 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: We like to travel, and we like to book last 418 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: minute trips, Like we just booked a trip to go 419 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: home next month, and it was kind of like, okay, 420 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: we can we can make it, get everything in line, 421 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: we can go. I feel like adding in a dog 422 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: will complicate that. But I also don't think we're going 423 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 1: to be like that forever, right now like I feel 424 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: like we have another year or two before we start 425 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: thinking about kids, that we have this window that we 426 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 1: want to be like have no restraints. That's really my 427 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: only hold up at the moment, and also just I 428 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: think me having to contribute to that as well, like 429 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 1: I know, like she really wants a dog and said, 430 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: like it's almost like if like a kid really wants 431 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 1: a dog, like no, I'll take care of it. I'll 432 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 1: walk it, I'll feed it. And I know I'll take 433 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: on some of that responsibility because I will, and I'll 434 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: eventually go to find a way to fit that into everything. 435 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: But I think right now that feels a little overwhelming still, 436 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: So that's still my only hang up. And the fact 437 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: that like it's so easy to just get out of 438 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: here if we want to and not worry about that, 439 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: because that is hard to do. It is is what 440 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: do you do when you when you leave town? 441 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 2: I have to have friends. I like calling all my friends. 442 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 2: I'm like, Okay, who can come stay at the house. 443 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 3: And it's like I don't even like sending that text 444 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: sometimes just because it feels like I'm asking somebody to 445 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 3: like really help and contribute to my life and it's tough, 446 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 3: like it really does add a thing. I've learned how 447 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 3: to travel with them a lot. I've had to just 448 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 3: it's like, Okay, if I really want to go somewhere 449 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 3: on a whim, like a weekend trip, Okay, where can 450 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,959 Speaker 3: I go that I can drive and they're tagging along. 451 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 3: That's kind of the attitude I've had to change around it. 452 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 3: But then when I really want to go on other trips, 453 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 3: it's finding people to watch them, and how does that work? 454 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 3: And I kind of set myself up for a lot 455 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 3: of friends to watch and like sometimes I'll drive home 456 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 3: and literally drop them off with my parents and I'm like, Okay, 457 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,959 Speaker 3: thanks guys, but I have to drive twenty two hours 458 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 3: of my life to make that happen. But in all honesty, 459 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 3: that is so worth it to me. That's like a 460 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 3: they are so worth it. It's worth that trade off 461 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 3: for me to travel a few times a year to 462 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 3: kind of change my routes and what I have to do. 463 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 3: I will say, though, I do think you guys could 464 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 3: start fostering, and I think that would help. 465 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: That's probably yeah, that's probably a good in between. 466 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: I think it would allow her to have somebody there 467 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 3: all the time, and it would allow you to see 468 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 3: how an animal would fit INTERI. 469 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 2: As his lifestyle. 470 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: How about the way she is. I could just see 471 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: her like, no, we're not giving them back, We're not 472 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: doing it. 473 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 2: And that is true, and you've said that before. 474 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 3: But it could be like you're like, hey, I'm willing 475 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,879 Speaker 3: to like give this a shot. Let's just foster and 476 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,479 Speaker 3: see how this goes, and let me see how I 477 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 3: feel and if you can get her to be on 478 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 3: in agreement with you of like, this isn't a guarantee, 479 00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 3: like this is what I want, but like I need 480 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 3: to see how I I'm gonna be able to fit this 481 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 3: into my life and just maybe that's an option. 482 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. The compromise I would make with her is we 483 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: could foster a dog when we also have to foster 484 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: a cat. 485 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:11,959 Speaker 2: Yeah. 486 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: I'm more of a cat guy and she's not. Yeah, 487 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 1: I'm like I grew up having cats. I love cats. 488 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: Every now and then we'll get a cat who comes 489 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: by the house just to chill and I'll feed them, 490 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 1: I'll hang out with them, yeah, and then they go 491 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: about their way.

Because I remember even when I 522 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 1: would have two cats, they would kind of feel each 523 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: other at a little bit, they'd like miss at each other, 524 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: kind of chase each other, and then they'd be cool 525 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: after a while. 526 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, especially because listen, Remy, my dog is 527 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 3: she is an only child. 528 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 2: She wanted to be an only child her entire life. 529 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 2: That is all she ever wanted. 530 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 3: So when I first started astering Hazel, it was for 531 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: sure an adjustment for her. And they would have moments 532 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 3: like Hazel's got a solid left right hook on her, 533 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 3: so solid. I have to keep those nails trimmed all 534 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 3: the time because if Remy gets too close and they're 535 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 3: like having. 536 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 2: A moment, it is fight. Wwe in my kitchen. 537 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,959 Speaker 3: So it still happens, It's okay, Yeah, It's just like 538 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,160 Speaker 3: they have so much, so many more moments now where 539 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 3: they coexist so well, and they both greet me at 540 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 3: the back door, no issues, and they've kind of like 541 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 3: found their spaces to dominate. 542 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 2: But Remy is super possessive over the couch, and I'm not. 543 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 3: Really sure why, Like you would think she's possessive over 544 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 3: her food or her toys. Which like food, she's fine, 545 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 3: she knows she's gonna be fed all the time. 546 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 2: Toys, she has her moments. 547 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 3: But the couch, there's something about the couch that when 548 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 3: Hazel like tries to be on it, when I'm on it, 549 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 3: it's like it really is wwe. So I'm working on 550 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 3: Remy to try and me like girlfriend, there's lots of 551 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 3: room on this couch for ultiple animals, but that's still 552 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 3: always a work in progress. Besides that, we've we've come 553 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 3: a really long way. It was it was an adjustment, 554 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 3: for sure, But I also introduced two adult animals. I 555 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 3: think it is a lot easier when you would introduce 556 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 3: younger animals. 557 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: Together because they just get more used to it. It's like, oh, 558 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: this is just normal. 559 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like Remy was eight years old when I adopted Hazel. 560 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 3: Hazel was also eight years old when I adopted her. 561 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 2: Did I say that right? 562 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, Remy was eight years old when I adopted Hazel, 563 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 3: and Hazel was eight when I adopted her, so they 564 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 3: were both adult cat, adult animals, like already very stuck 565 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 3: in their own ways, and I'm like here figured out. 566 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 3: So I do think it helps when they're a little 567 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 3: bit younger, so you're not like Remy had eight years 568 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 3: of her life where it was just her, and then 569 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 3: Hazel had eight years of our life where she was 570 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 3: around one hundred and thirty. 571 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 2: Other cats, So we were dealing with a lot of 572 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 2: variables there. 573 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: It'd be hard for humans. I can imagine pets. 574 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, but can And there's so many people who have 575 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 3: dogs and cats and they get along and they cut 576 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 3: all the time. So you just find maybe you start 577 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 3: with a cat, and then you every time you foster 578 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 3: a dog, you make sure that it is cat friendly, 579 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,360 Speaker 3: because that's always a thing. I've had plenty of fosters 580 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 3: who are great with cats. But then I found the 581 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 3: one little grimlin from the street and she. 582 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 2: Wanted to chase my cat. 583 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 3: So they all have their things, their little personalities. But 584 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,640 Speaker 3: I do think this is a compromise and a way 585 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 3: in for you guys, for sure. 586 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 2: Just an idea. 587 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: I think she'll love that idea because then you. 588 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 3: Can help too, and you can both start to feel out, 589 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 3: like what feels right for you guys instead of just 590 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 3: like throwing yourselves to the wolves. 591 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 2: And you're like, well, we have a dog and this is. 592 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 3: Where we're at, you know, because I do think a 593 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 3: lot of people do that and they're like, what do 594 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 3: we get ourselves into? Not in a bad way, it's 595 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 3: just it is a lifestyle change, for sure. I always 596 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,360 Speaker 3: have to think about them. I'm like, Okay, we're done 597 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 3: with work, i gotta run home, gotta let all the 598 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 3: animals like they're they're missing me.

And I don't 660 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: know how long the other process is going to be 661 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: because I'm just trying to get over one hurdle. 662 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's probably better to just focus on one, 663 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 3: yeah than be like, Okay, there's eight different timelines in 664 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 3: my brain. 665 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 2: That's exciting, yeah. 666 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: Because I'm just tired of having things poke me in 667 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: the mouth and like scraping me. I'm just tired of 668 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: having them that I've kind of that point of like 669 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to wait any longer. I've been patient 670 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: for too long now. So I think that's probably the 671 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: most exciting thing right now. That is exciting because I 672 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: remember that feeling when I had them off briefly of 673 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: like being able to like touch my teeth for the 674 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 1: first time, and it just felt freeing and liberating. Yeah, 675 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: So I kind of want that all the time. I'm 676 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 1: also starting to think about the post process of like 677 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: wearing a retainer and all those things, which is gonna suck, 678 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: but I think that's worth it. 679 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 3: It is, and as somebody who notoriously did not wear 680 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 3: her retainer and then had to get a missline later 681 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 3: in life, wear the retainer. 682 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 2: Wear the freaking retainer. 683 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 3: I also got the permanent one on my bottom teeth, 684 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 3: so I don't wear a retainer. 685 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: You have a permanent retainer. 686 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can see it here. I'm sorry you guys 687 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 2: aren't going to see it on the podcast, but. 688 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: Okay here. 689 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 2: It's like a little silver it's literally just on my 690 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 2: front teeth. 691 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: You take it out and put it in, you stick 692 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: it's in all the time. Dang, I didn't think it. 693 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 3: My bottom teeth moved so much. That was really where 694 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 3: my problem was was my bottom teeth. And I am 695 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 3: really good about wearing my top retainer, but I also 696 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 3: have all kinds of job. 697 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 2: Problems and I'm just kind of incoreded I do any 698 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: other things to worry about. 699 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 3: But they were like, you could put this in and 700 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 3: it's not a full retainer, so I don't have anything 701 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 3: on my back teeth. It's just this little like metal 702 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 3: bar that they sealed on like my two canines, and 703 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 3: then it's right with the front teeth. 704 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 2: So that could be an option. 705 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: I didn't know that was a thing. I'm going to 706 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: ask about that. Yeah, I've been learning all these things 707 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: that are things that you can put in your mouth. 708 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna take that way from Mike, But yes, 709 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 3: it is an option because I just didn't trust myself 710 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 3: with my bottom teeth. I trusted myself with my top 711 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 3: for some reason, but not my bottom. So you can't 712 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 3: do it and it doesn't. The only thing that sex 713 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 3: is like you can't floss regularly, like use like a 714 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 3: fake or what. 715 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 1: I can't really do regular fluss right now, I like 716 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: this gi flaws. That sucks. 717 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's what kind of you have to use 718 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 3: this needle thread if you really want to floss them, 719 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 3: which I'll do once a week, but I use a 720 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 3: floss uh water floss pick thing whatever they're called.

Every time I go 723 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 3: to the dentists every six months, they're like. 724 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, you look good.

But also she was really thankful 829 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 3: that I had like posted like my insane medical experiences 830 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 3: and it was like important, It felt important. 831 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 2: And it mattered in a way, and. 832 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 3: I just haven't had that kind of connection with a 833 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 3: listener and like a hot minute you get to meet 834 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 3: him and everybody's so kind and it's so special. 835 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 2: But that was just like, Okay, I know I'm posting these. 836 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 3: Like silly videos about my life experiences, but they matter 837 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 3: and it's going to like help somebody. And just to 838 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 3: know that I helped the listener not only that, but 839 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 3: just like help feel some version of closure and understanding, 840 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 3: like it was. I was so emotional when I got 841 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 3: that message. 842 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: So I didn't know dogs could also get verdi go. 843 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 3: I think they, I believe, like it's very rare, but 844 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 3: they can, and it's not. And it's even harder for 845 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 3: them because like you imagine it's happening to me and 846 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 3: I'm already sitting there like I have no idea what's 847 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 3: happening to my body when it first happened. 848 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: And you can, you can, you can hardly explain that disappointing. 849 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, let alone like a dog and you're like, what 850 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 3: is happening in your dog? Like you probably think it's 851 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 3: having a seizure and all these things. So it was 852 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 3: just a really cool but unfortunate moment. And I'm so 853 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 3: so heartbroken for them that this happened, but also just 854 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,240 Speaker 3: happy that the information. 855 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 2: Was there and available to her to have. 856 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 3: So I wanted to share that because I feel like 857 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 3: it's important. Sometimes we get so lost in the mundane 858 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 3: of like what we're doing doesn't really matter and oh yeah, 859 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 3: you know, and. 860 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 1: You also just never know what's going to connect. And 861 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: you post something like that and somebody like, oh, I 862 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 1: think I've experienced that too, or I think something like 863 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 1: that is happening to me now, and you. 864 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 2: Start to feel okay, like this is worth it. 865 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 3: My silly videos, I know they're crazy, but it's helping people. 866 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 2: So it felt really good And I saw you share 867 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 2: something that I wanted you to share, that kind of 868 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 2: running story. 869 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was kind of a thing that I have 870 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: been experiencing lately of like physically, I haven't felt like 871 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:35,800 Speaker 1: great about my body and like how I just feel 872 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: overall I haven't felt comfortable with my clothes, and I 873 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: started thinking about that my body has been allowing me 874 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 1: to run, work out, and do the things that I 875 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 1: want to do in life. And I realized that that 876 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 1: kind of started to have more value than how I 877 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,840 Speaker 1: feel about myself. And I started thinking about like my running, 878 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: like I'm able to run for hours at a time 879 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: I'm and like my body has the strength to do 880 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 1: that even though I feel like I'm not the most comfortable, 881 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 1: Like my body is strong and it has the ability 882 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 1: to push me. And I just started to approach running 883 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:15,040 Speaker 1: differently lately, of like I don't have to run, like 884 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 1: I get to run, because sometimes it's hard to do, 885 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:18,399 Speaker 1: Like it's hard to do any kind of work out. 886 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: You're like, I don't want to do this, I'm not 887 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: feeling great, I'm feeling tired. What is it even going 888 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:26,359 Speaker 1: to change? But if I have that ability now, I 889 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 1: have to do it because someday I won't be able 890 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:33,280 Speaker 1: to and that's going to suck when I physically can't. 891 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: And I'm going to think back on those times where 892 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 1: I wanted to and just or when I could do 893 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: it and just didn't want to do it. And I 894 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,760 Speaker 1: think just in life, I've been able to learn from 895 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: other people who've had that same type of feeling of 896 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: thinking like they didn't know what they had until they 897 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: lost it, and I didn't want to get to that point. 898 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 1: Like I've been lucky in life to not have had 899 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: major losses in my life or major just tragedies or 900 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,359 Speaker 1: traumas that people go through a lot of people going 901 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: through a lot right now, and I haven't had to 902 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 1: experience that personally to learn from it. So I think 903 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: that's where this whole post came from, is like I 904 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: just said, like, hey, like I run because I can 905 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 1: right now. Someday I won't be able to. And I 906 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: got a comment from a listener who said that she 907 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 1: used to love, you know, walking, that was a big 908 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,439 Speaker 1: part of her life, and then she's had some health 909 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: issues recently that she's not been able to do that 910 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 1: and how much she just wants to get out there 911 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 1: and just walk. And I thought, just walking, like that's 912 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: just like a little thing we take for granted to 913 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: be able to walk somewhere. So I replied to her 914 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: and I'm like, next round, I'm doing I'm dedicating it 915 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: to you, and I did. I went for a run 916 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 1: the next day. I posted about it just for anybody 917 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: else who maybe is going through something like that of 918 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 1: not being able to do the thing they love right now. 919 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: And I just didn't want to get to a point 920 00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: where I took that for granted anymore. And I know 921 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,280 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people out there with health issues 922 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: right now that I just started reading the comments, it's like, man, 923 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 1: like this sucks. But if I could do something like 924 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: that for somebody just to feel like, oh, they acknowledge 925 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 1: that and they're not taking it for granted, I think 926 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 1: that meant a little bit. 927 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 3: No, it absolutely did, and I'm sure to her she 928 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 3: was like, Oh, somebody's validating this experience that I'm having, 929 00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 3: And it probably felt really good to her to just 930 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 3: feel that from someone who she's connecting with on that level. 931 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 2: So it did. That's why I wanted you to share it. 932 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,399 Speaker 2: And it's special. Like I'm so. 933 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 3: Often it's it's really easy to get caught up in 934 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 3: what we're doing. And just like as we were talking 935 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 3: in the beginning, the burnout and gosh, Mike, the days 936 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 3: I've been having lately where I'm like I work all 937 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 3: the time. I don't have time to do any of 938 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 3: this stuff. Like I was just telling something of the 939 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 3: other days, like the lowest thing on my totem pole 940 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 3: is like my like literal showering. If I get a shower, 941 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 3: it's a good day. And they're like, well, when's the 942 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:02,799 Speaker 3: last time. I was like two days ago and it 943 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 3: wasn't like, you know, not body shot. 944 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 2: I'm trying like my full shower, because that's an experience. Yes, 945 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 2: thank you. 946 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 3: As a woman, you have the everything shower where you 947 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 3: actually wash your hair. And they're like dang, like you 948 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 3: can't do that. And then the other night, a friend 949 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:18,720 Speaker 3: came over and we're about to go to a concert 950 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 3: and I was literally eating olives. 951 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 2: I was like, here's my dinner and she's like, no, 952 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:24,760 Speaker 2: you need to eat.

And I'm 959 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: like some people enjoy making dinner and like they make 960 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 1: different foods. I'm like I have to eat the same 961 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: thing every day because I don't want to think about it. 962 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 3: I know, and see that's what sucks for me. I 963 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 3: love dinner, I love food. I love making meals, and 964 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 3: I don't have time. 965 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 2: I literally I had gone to the grocery store in 966 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:54,319 Speaker 2: like three weeks. 967 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure I was surviving off of olives and 968 00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 3: carrots for literally like days.

We're all going out and 988 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: we're hanging out and we're making you guys friends. And 989 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 1: it felt like parents setting up kids on a playdate 990 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 1: where the common ground is Pokemon. 991 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 2: You know, sometimes we need a little push. 992 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 3: Sometimes that happens, and sometimes that's how you make really 993 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,919 Speaker 3: good friends. Though, and then maybe you make other friends 994 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,480 Speaker 3: by way of that friend and that becomes your friend. 995 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: It could be my end it is. 996 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 2: That's a way. You should totally own it. Like I 997 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 2: get it, though. I get that that's like your lowest 998 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 2: total pole and you're like, I don't have time for 999 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,799 Speaker 2: this and it's a lot of work. I get it. 1000 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 2: But also you do deserve to I deserve to. 1001 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 3: Shower and eat, and you deserve to have friends, you know, 1002 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 3: like we do deserve those things in our life. 1003 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 2: So I think you should do it.
