Yeah. Yeah, I have to, 355 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: you know, be careful, especially driving around the city. But 356 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: that's why, like it's kind of safer than highway driving. 357 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: You know, more accidents can happen that way, So I 358 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: don't mind being in traffic all day, you know, like 359 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: just going around the city. 360 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 2: Wall, I feel like it was okay. So I actually 361 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: was feeling like it's the opposite because if you're on 362 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 2: a highway, you just got to move forward. You just 363 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 2: like like I love when I'm doing a long drive 364 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: and I look at my Google Maps and it says 365 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: like one hundred miles or kilometers or whatever until the 366 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 2: next thing, because I'm like, all right, I just go forward, right, 367 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, driving an eighteen wheeler at like like taking 368 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: an eighteen wheeler to like a traffic stop, that sounds 369 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 2: that sounds like a nightmare. 370 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's honestly, like I'm going pretty slow, 371 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's not a big deal. And I'm like 372 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: just like kind of cruising around the city, you know, 373 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: like I'm not really rushing anywhere. It's more annoying like 374 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: when I'm trying to get home and like there's traffic, 375 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: which tends to be often but you know, it is. 376 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 6: What it is. 377 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: But like the thing is, it's like when you're on 378 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: the highway, like it's more dangerou because like that can 379 00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: cause like a statal axit. You know, I'd rather get 380 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: into a little fender bender, you know, like in the 381 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: city then like get into like a five car pile 382 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: up on the highway, you know what I mean.

Maybe I'm being weird now. 510 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 2: I have multiple thoughts about this. Okay, tell me how 511 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 2: long you been with this lady. 512 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 6: We've been together for like a year and two months. 513 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 2: Okay, has anything like this happened before? Or has she 514 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 2: ever complained about the anything like this before? 515 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, like quite a lot actually at testing. 516 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 4: Okay, many many. 517 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,400 Speaker 2: Times it has And what give me like the last 518 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 2: time it happened? Give me like the recurring situation? What 519 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 2: does that look like? 520 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 6: So I guess last night, like she comes home from work, 521 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 6: she had a rough day, like the just the person 522 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 6: she was working with was like in a really bad mood. 523 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 6: So she came home and was like, I had a 524 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 6: really tough day at work. So I'm like, okay, like 525 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 6: I'm totally down to like help you feel better or 526 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,719 Speaker 6: just like be here with you sad, And it was 527 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 6: like working last night, like she felt better and like 528 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 6: everything was cool. But I think a lot of the time, 529 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 6: maybe if she has like a bad day or whatever, 530 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,360 Speaker 6: I will like try to come in and be there. 531 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 6: But if like I'm not able to make her feel better, 532 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 6: it's like she gets mad. It's me. So it's like 533 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 6: it's almost like I guess to me, I don't know 534 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 6: if it's actually what's going on, Like I might be 535 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 6: having some weird process about it, but it feels like 536 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 6: her whatever is going on in her day just kind 537 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 6: of like translates into like that I have done something wrong, 538 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 6: and she's. 539 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, it's you knows 540 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 2: the thing. It's hard to assess. Yeah, so I have 541 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 2: so many thoughts about this actually, because it's hard to 542 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 2: assess this without like having been in this situation. But 543 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 2: I might think multiple things. I think, like on your end, right, like, well, 544 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 2: i'll talk about your end first, I'll talk about her end, 545 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: So on your because you're because your ends more import 546 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 2: because your ends like what you can control. Right, So 547 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 2: on your end, it's like if your girlfriend's having a 548 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 2: bad day, you the whole like, how can I help you? 549 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 2: And she says, I don't. No, obviously you can't be 550 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 2: a mind reader, but really all you have to do 551 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 2: is like all she wants from you in that moment 552 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 2: is just like your presence. Yeah, there is, there's no 553 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 2: specific thing. I mean, there's sure there's specific things you 554 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 2: can do to show your presence, but all she wants 555 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 2: and you said the way you said, yeah, just now, 556 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 2: it's like you're not stupid, you know this. She just 557 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 2: wants your presence, right, She wants your your she wants 558 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 2: your attention, she wants your presence, and life's hard. Sometimes 559 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 2: you you don't have it. Sometimes you don't have that 560 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 2: presence and you sometimes you reach into your brain and 561 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 2: it's fucking insufficient funds and that sucks. I've been a 562 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 2: billion situations, you know, personal and professional where uh, you know, 563 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 2: my presence was required and it just was I just 564 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,479 Speaker 2: had insufficient funds for that presence in my brain. And 565 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 2: that sucks, you know. I think it's it's what you 566 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 2: want to do is just try to Again, You're not stupid. 567 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 2: You know this that that all she wants is your presence, right, 568 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: So I'm sure you tried as hard as you can 569 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 2: to uh give her that presence. So but then on 570 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 2: her side and it's I you know, I'm not talking 571 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 2: to her, I'm talking to you. But on her side, 572 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: it's like you gotta communicate and you can't just like 573 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 2: go A to B you really can't. Just like it's 574 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 2: not fair for her to take out her stress on you, 575 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 2: Like you're trying to help as far as I know, 576 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 2: you know, I don't know what the situation is. I 577 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 2: don't know what you're doing. I don't know what it 578 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 2: looks like. But you sound like a nice guy. You 579 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 2: sound like, you care about this lady. You sound like 580 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 2: you're trying to give her your best presence, And in 581 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 2: that moment, it's like it's she can't just take out 582 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 2: her stress on you because like you're trying to you're 583 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 2: trying to help her. As far as I know, you're 584 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 2: trying to help her, You're trying to be there. 585 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 6: So I just want it's like it's. 586 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so it sucks that she's like taken out 587 00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 2: on you. It's like, why are you taking it out 588 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 2: on me? I'm trying to help you. So yeah, I mean, 589 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 2: what when you bring this up to her? Like what 590 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 2: does she say? How do these conversations go. 591 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 6: Like when I bring up the dynamic. 592 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 2: Or yeah, when I bring up the dynamic and when 593 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 2: you're like, well you're you know. 594 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 6: Well, honestly, man, I think she's really great at coming 595 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 6: back and I can tell she's really reflected and she'll 596 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 6: come back and be like, hey, I'm really sorry about 597 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 6: my reaction. I really want to work on you know, 598 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 6: how I react when I'm stressed and how I deal 599 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 6: with my stress. It's not fair to put it on you. 600 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 6: I guess. I guess it's just like recurred. I feel 601 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 6: like kind of the whole time we've been together. So 602 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 6: now I'm at the point where I'm like, maybe we 603 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 6: need to change our strategy and the like talking about 604 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 6: it isn't. 605 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 4: What's helping. 606 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 2: Interesting? What do you when you say you want to 607 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 2: change the strategy? What is what do you mean by that? 608 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,239 Speaker 6: I guess it feels more like you can you can 609 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 6: only do so much talking with somebody. But I think 610 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:15,399 Speaker 6: what changes things is actually acting differently. So I guess 611 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 6: it just feels maybe like a miss match in expectations, 612 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 6: Like she just expects are going to act a certain way, 613 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,959 Speaker 6: and like as much as I want to try to 614 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 6: act in that way, I just like can't do it 615 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 6: exactly how she's expecting. Yeah, So that's where I'm like, 616 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 6: do I just keep trying to like change it slightly 617 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 6: or do I have to, Like, I just really want 618 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 6: things to work with her? And I know the other 619 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 6: option is just to like be like, I'll find somebody else, 620 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 6: but I care about this person, and I just I 621 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 6: guess I just don't want to keep doing the same 622 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 6: thing if it's not working. Ah. 623 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 2: I'm not an ex but you know it's I've been 624 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 2: in little situations that remind me of this and it 625 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 2: my you know, my my, my gut thing that I 626 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,480 Speaker 2: would that I my gut feeling that I have a 627 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 2: better situation like this is that like you know, you've 628 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 2: tried to like over the years, to like talk it through, 629 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 2: communicate yourself. She over and over she said, And you 630 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 2: know you've tried to do what's best on your We 631 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 2: already talked about your end, which is like being present 632 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 2: and shit. And then on her end, it's like she's 633 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 2: trying to not take out her stress on you. And 634 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 2: she's told you that she's trying to not take her 635 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 2: stress out on you, and and then she'll get upset 636 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 2: and then she'll come back and be like, I'm sorry, 637 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 2: I got upset, and then you'll you know, you'll kind 638 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 2: of break and rec and being and break and reconvene. 639 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 2: But but you're not noticed. But what I'm hearing is 640 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 2: you're not noticing over time that the issue is improving, 641 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 2: but that it's just stagnant. So so this is one 642 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 2: of those situations where if you feel like something is 643 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 2: not uh getting better, it's probably likely I mean, if 644 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 2: you feel like something's not getting better, there does come 645 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 2: a point where like you should I think you should 646 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 2: always keep trying, you should always keep letting yourself be known. 647 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 2: But they're kind of comes a point where you have 648 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 2: to like look at a person and and and uh 649 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: be like, you know what, this is not gonna improve 650 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 2: or not not that let's say this not necessarily that 651 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 2: this is not going to improve, but that in order 652 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 2: to continue, you have to accept a reality where it 653 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 2: does not improve, you know what I mean, Not say oh, oh, 654 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 2: this is never gonna change, this person's ever gonna change, 655 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 2: but accept the fact that they totally might never change. 656 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 2: And if you really love this person, if you feel 657 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 2: really compatible with this person, if you really like this 658 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,719 Speaker 2: relationship to move forward, there does have to be some 659 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 2: form of acceptance where you're like, you know, I'm willing 660 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 2: to like, okay, I'm willing to stay, but staying involves 661 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 2: accepting that this thing is gonna uh may not ever 662 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 2: fucking change, and that everything else around it is so 663 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 2: is good enough that I'm okay with this or you leave, 664 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 2: But you sound like you want to work it out. 665 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure, No, I totally get what you're saying. Yeah, 666 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 6: at some point, you do just have to accept somebody 667 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 6: how they are and like they're showing you how they're 668 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 6: gonna be. And I do think after a certain point 669 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 6: you can maybe like hope for change as much as 670 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 6: you want, but it is I think it does add 671 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 6: more frustration where there doesn't need to be. I think, 672 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,719 Speaker 6: like trying to change somebody else really doesn't work. Ever, 673 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 6: so I don't know, I see what you're saying. Man, 674 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 6: for sure, Yeah. 675 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 2: It doesn't work. But there's also yeah, I mean everything 676 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 2: I said is that it doesn't work, but you should 677 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 2: also you should, but you should keep letting yourself be 678 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 2: known and like keep communicating. It gets exhausting, but yeah, 679 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 2: it's like the reality, the real it gets exhausted. But 680 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 2: the reality is like when someone kind of shows you 681 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 2: that they're not going to change over a long period 682 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 2: of time, they're basically telling you, like, you know, hey, 683 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 2: take it or take it or leave it. And by 684 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 2: the way, for sure, like and by the way, man, 685 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 2: you know, on your end, it's like what the fuck 686 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,600 Speaker 2: it's situation. There's probably a lot of things where it's 687 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 2: like she has to look at you and accept that 688 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 2: you're not gonna change. You know. That's yeah, it's tough, man, 689 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 2: Sorry what I said. Yeah, it's tough man. 690 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, I just every time I've gotten in a relationship, 691 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 6: it just feels like I'm immediately a burden with like 692 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 6: you have to now choose if you're gonna stay our lead, 693 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 6: whereas like if you're simply you don't have that decision, 694 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 6: and like I want to be with one person going 695 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 6: forward to my life. But I guess just like that 696 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 6: pressure of like are you gonna stay, you're gonna go 697 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 6: is just like so hard to deal with because I 698 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 6: also just want to focus on my own life and 699 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 6: like the ship I got going on outside of a relationship, 700 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 6: So I don't think thinking about a relationship all the 701 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 6: time is like beneficial, but like I'd like to be 702 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 6: in one. 703 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 2: You know, I'm not listen, I'll be honest, I'm not 704 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 2: like a relationship expert. There is a part of me 705 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 2: that there because there's another part of me that believes that, like, 706 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 2: you know, the right relationship. I don't know if I 707 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 2: don't know the more I get into things, I don't 708 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 2: know if there is like such a binary of right 709 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 2: and wrong relationship, But there is a part of it. 710 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 2: There's a philosophy for me that goes, like you know, 711 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 2: if you're in the right relationship, then you're not always 712 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,799 Speaker 2: thinking if you should stay or if you should leave. Right. 713 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, maybe it's just like kind of working out. I 714 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 6: don't know, man, there's. 715 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 2: A big part of me that feels that way too, 716 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 2: that if you're in there is a big part of 717 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 2: me that does feel like in terms of like chasing 718 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 2: your alignment in your life, that like the things that 719 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 2: you're because I audit my life a lot, and I think, like, 720 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 2: what am I? What am I like sure of? Like 721 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 2: there's certain aspects of my life, certain people in my life, 722 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 2: certain things where I'm like, I'm one hundred percent sure 723 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 2: about that. I don't waste time thinking about that. And 724 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 2: there's tons of things in my life where I'm like, 725 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 2: I'm like that takescept a lot of my time thinking 726 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 2: should I or shouldn't I? And there's a part of 727 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 2: it and I don't want to I'd be a hypocrite 728 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 2: if I told you that. I'm really good at always 729 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 2: going with this guttural response. But there's a part of 730 00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 2: me that feels like if you have to go, oh, 731 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 2: should I or shouldn't I, then it is a sign 732 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 2: of of misalignment. But I don't have the wisdom yet 733 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 2: to say if if I believe that's to be true. 734 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think everybody kind of struggles with that, like 735 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 6: forever pretty much. I don't know if you can really 736 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:44,320 Speaker 6: answer that question. 737 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 2: I don't know. I want to do the science on it. 738 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 2: I keep thinking, I'm like, i should take like in 739 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 2: my life audit. So I'm like, I should. I want 740 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 2: to live a life where I'm like a full body 741 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 2: yes to everything, But I don't know if that's a fantasy. 742 00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 4: You know. 743 00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:04,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I just want to feel excited about 744 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 5: the decisions I'm making, you know. I want to wake 745 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 5: up every day kind of being like, maybe everything's not perfect, 746 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 5: but I'm excited about the choices I'm making and like 747 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 5: the possibility of the choices I get to make today. 748 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 6: But I don't know if that's like realistic. Like I 749 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 6: feel like a lot of days I wake up and 750 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 6: I'm like I just kind of have to do what 751 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 6: I have to do. But I don't know if that's 752 00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 6: like the way to live life. 753 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 2: You know.

I'm just thinking about that the like 779 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 2: so like one caramel eminem it's so dense right when 780 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 2: you kind of eat it and it's gone, But when 781 00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,840 Speaker 2: they pop it, the density is is uh bigger. So 782 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 2: it feels like you're getting more out of the same 783 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: amount of the thing because it's like it's all popped 784 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 2: and stuff, and then the texture is a lot more. 785 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 2: It's like crunchy and still CARAMELI you know, isn't. 786 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 6: It more intensity or like you get a longer lasting experience, You. 787 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 2: Get a longer lasting experience, Yeah, because I could.

I would say, I think a bag of 790 00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 2: popped caramel eminems will last me longer than just a 791 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:42,839 Speaker 2: bag of like the regular ones. They're better than you've 792 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 2: never had caramel, that's not have you ever had M 793 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 2: and ms? 794 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, but I feel like I've only seen the peanut 795 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 6: butter eminems.

That's 859 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,919 Speaker 4: just a personal preference of mind. 860 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:09,839 Speaker 2: But that's what caving like the cave do you Like? 861 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 2: That's what caving is, right, It's going into unexplored caves 862 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: and fucking around and trying not to get stuck. Right. 863 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 4: Uh, yeah, certain parts of it for sure. Yeah, you 864 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,919 Speaker 4: definitely don't want to get stuck or have a rock 865 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 4: fall on you that kind of tings you into place 866 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,280 Speaker 4: that's uh, those are not good things. 867 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 2: So what is the process of the kind of caving 868 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:32,839 Speaker 2: that you do. 869 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 4: Well, a lot of people when when they think of caving, 870 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 4: they think of like what you're thinking of is just 871 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 4: going into really tight spaces and stuff. But like, there's 872 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 4: a whole plethora of caves across the country where you know, 873 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,800 Speaker 4: you may be walking the entire time, you may be swimming, 874 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 4: you may bring a boat, you may be doing a 875 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 4: mix of all of those things. You may you may 876 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 4: be going into really confined spaces with water. You know, 877 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 4: it's a kind of a broad spectrum of what you 878 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 4: can do underground. You can even do rope access and 879 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:07,760 Speaker 4: do the SRT and ride ropes down huge pits. 880 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 2: But do you ever get freaked out that you're going 881 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 2: to die like all the other people that died. 882 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 4: I have never felt that way. I've never felt like 883 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 4: I was going to die in a cave. But you've 884 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 4: always got the possibility of like a loose rock falling 885 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,759 Speaker 4: on you, especially if there's a slope into a pit 886 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 4: and you're on ropes, your rope could adjust and a 887 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 4: rock could fall on you. And that, to me, that's 888 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,919 Speaker 4: one of the most dangerous hazards that I faced rock fall. 889 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 2: What is the coolest cave that you've seen? 890 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 4: I'm not going to say the name of it, but 891 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:53,280 Speaker 4: there's this epic cave in Tennessee where approximately. 892 00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 2: Wait, why would I say the name? Why would you 893 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:59,760 Speaker 2: say the name to the cave? Is it a private. 894 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 4: It's on private property. You don't want to you don't 895 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 4: want to harass private property owners, and you also don't 896 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 4: want to increase traffic because caving is kind of a 897 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:13,320 Speaker 4: conservation minded thing, you know, like it's leave no trace, 898 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,240 Speaker 4: you leave nothing, but for footprints and take nothing but pictures. 899 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 4: So if you increase traffic to the cave, then it 900 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 4: just gets torn apart, basically. And if the public knew 901 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:24,239 Speaker 4: about it, then they're gonna want to go in there 902 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 4: and not know what they're getting into and spray paint 903 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:28,720 Speaker 4: and leave trash and stuff. 904 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 2: Okay, tell me about this cave. 905 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, Yeah, it's like a two hundred and sixty 906 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 4: foot waterfall repel. You cave for about two hours and 907 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 4: it's mostly walking stream passage. You're up to your waist 908 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 4: to your chest and water most of the way, and 909 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,840 Speaker 4: then it breaks through this layer of limestone and drops 910 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 4: two hundred and sixty feet up and you're about fifteen 911 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 4: feet away from this raging waterfall. And when I did it, 912 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 4: my buddy had one of those massive like diving lights, 913 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 4: and that can light up a whole massive room, and 914 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 4: so I went over the lip of this pit and 915 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 4: the whole waterfall was lit up, and it was just 916 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,799 Speaker 4: the most incredible thing I've ever seen. And that ride 917 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 4: down and climb up was one of the coolest experiences 918 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 4: I've ever had. I love that. 919 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 2: And and you just like broke into this guy's house 920 00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:19,400 Speaker 2: and went into his cave, like this is where had 921 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:20,280 Speaker 2: you find this cave? 922 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 4: We had permission, We had talked to him prior and 923 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:27,640 Speaker 4: gave us a day and a time to show up 924 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 4: and go visit his cave. It's a very massive cave. 925 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:32,240 Speaker 4: We only sorry. 926 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 2: How'd you know that he has a cave? 927 00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,160 Speaker 4: Through the grottos in the local area. You can get 928 00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 4: property access through people in the grottos. Grottos are caving 929 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 4: clubs that are mainly across the southeast, but they're all 930 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,879 Speaker 4: over the country. They're just caving clubs where people who 931 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 4: like crawling around in caves can meet other cavers and 932 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 4: go explore. 933 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:56,760 Speaker 2: How does it feel when you're in the cave? 934 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:02,719 Speaker 4: To me, it feels he it's you know, there's no 935 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:07,799 Speaker 4: self service, it's it's dark, it's quiet, it's some kind 936 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 4: of relaxing. You just dress a little warm, and you 937 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 4: dress for your environment and try to prepare because there's 938 00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 4: no help for you down there. If if something out 939 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 4: that happens, you know, I I find peace in it. 940 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 4: That's how I feel. 941 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 2: What's the scariest thing you've encountered in one of the caves? 942 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 4: Ooh, good question. I've had rocks fall on me a 943 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 4: couple of times, nothing major, mostly just little pebbles and 944 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 4: stuff like maybe a little bit about the size of 945 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 4: my fist. I had one hit me in a thigh 946 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 4: pretty bad and left a big bruise. What I think 947 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:46,360 Speaker 4: what scares me the most and what I think about 948 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:50,919 Speaker 4: the most is when you get on ropes and we're 949 00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 4: all we're all down there for fun, we're all trying 950 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 4: to have a good time, and we're all hobbyists, and 951 00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 4: a lot of people don't really have extremely good vertical skills, 952 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:05,799 Speaker 4: and that's okay, but it's scary when something happens and 953 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:09,640 Speaker 4: they potentially become stuck on rope or can enter an 954 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 4: uncontrolled repel on rope. So there are ways to medicate that. 955 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 4: But I think I think that's the scariest thing to 956 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 4: me is not necessarily knowing the skills of my partners 957 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 4: doing the activity. 958 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 2: M okay, So it's not being able to have a 959 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:25,799 Speaker 2: crew that you. 960 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 4: Trust sometimes yeah, yeah, most of the time a cave 961 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 4: with some very experienced cavers and we all know what 962 00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 4: we're doing, and even then things can still happen, for sure. 963 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 2: How about creatures, you see any crazy creatures? Critters? 964 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, okay, thousands of bats. They're really cool environments 965 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 4: because a lot of the creatures in the cave are 966 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 4: cave adapted, so they only live down there. So tons 967 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 4: of salamanders. In my area Tennessee, we have this salamander 968 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 4: called the Tennessee Cave salamander, and it's it's only a 969 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,120 Speaker 4: very small area that they live in, but they're really 970 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,239 Speaker 4: cool and they're quad. They swim around. They have these 971 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:06,799 Speaker 4: huge red gills, kind of like an ax A lottel. Yeah. 972 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 4: Tons of crayfish, like cave adapted crayfish. There's cavefish that 973 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 4: are white. The crayfish are also white. A bunch of 974 00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:19,879 Speaker 4: different baths. I'm always scared that I'm gonna turn around 975 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,800 Speaker 4: the corner and see like a horny female, but bigfoot 976 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:24,919 Speaker 4: that's gonna kidnap me. That's always be in my big 977 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:25,720 Speaker 4: fear of underground. 978 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 2: A lot of people that's their fantasy. 979 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:31,959 Speaker 4: Well it's not my fantasy, it's a fear of mine. 980 00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 2: So, uh, what do you do outside of caving? 981 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,360 Speaker 4: Outside of caving, I do a lot of fishing, hiking. 982 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 4: I work in rope access and work on wind turbines, 983 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 4: repair the blades on them. We repel off those giant 984 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 4: death machines. 985 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,839 Speaker 2: Wind turbines, so you're just constantly around things that can 986 00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:57,319 Speaker 2: kill you. 987 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,879 Speaker 4: I'm more scared of the wind turbines than I am 988 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 4: of the cave, to be fair. 989 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 2: Right, right right, literally, sorry, go ahead, no, you go ahead. 990 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 4: A wind turbine is literally a giant machine that is 991 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 4: designed to kill you. That's that's we say that in 992 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,880 Speaker 4: safety meetings all the time and keep it in the 993 00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 4: back of your head at all times. You're around a 994 00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 4: bunch of moving parts and they're you know, they're they're generators, 995 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:29,600 Speaker 4: they're electrical machines, so you've got to be very cautious 996 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,280 Speaker 4: with how you approach and treat those those things. 997 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:35,520 Speaker 2: You think more people have gotten killed by wind turbines 998 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 2: or by caves? 999 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:41,840 Speaker 4: Oh, another good question. I I don't have an answer 1000 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 4: for you. A lot of people have died in caves. 1001 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 4: There have been several people that have died on win tournaments. 1002 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 4: I would say probably caves, but I don't have a 1003 00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,359 Speaker 4: factual answer to tell you. That's my my opinion. If 1004 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 4: I had to. 1005 00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 2: Guess, zeus before we go, give me, give me the 1006 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 2: dream cave. Where's the cave where you're like, I've always 1007 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,840 Speaker 2: wanted to look and see what's inside of this particular cave. 1008 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:11,400 Speaker 4: The dream cave, I think a good multi drop cave. 1009 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 4: So it's like you repel in and you do some 1010 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 4: horizontal caving and it goes the trip is down, and 1011 00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 4: we'll also do it. Let's make it a pull down 1012 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 4: cave to where when you go into the cave and 1013 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 4: you repel down to your first level, you pull the 1014 00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 4: rope down behind you, and once you do that, you're 1015 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 4: committed to going to the bottom. So there is going 1016 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 4: to be a second entrance, at least one, and it's 1017 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:41,800 Speaker 4: going to be beautiful through the whole way. Lots of formations, 1018 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 4: lots of critters, lots of like salamanders and cave adapted 1019 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 4: life through the passages and water. Water caves are a 1020 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 4: lot of fun when when you're repelling next to the 1021 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 4: waterfall and crawling through water or even walking or waiting 1022 00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 4: through it. I think that's my perfect mix of caves. 1023 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,680 Speaker 2: Wait, well, I guess I'm looking for a specific cave 1024 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:09,000 Speaker 2: like a white wolf a white whale cave where you're like, 1025 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:11,279 Speaker 2: I want to go to the you know, deep in 1026 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,280 Speaker 2: fucking China or wherever, Like, is there a specific cave 1027 00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 2: that you want to go see. 1028 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,840 Speaker 4: A specific cave, probably let you gia. It's been closed 1029 00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 4: the cavers for a long time. If you're not a researcher, 1030 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:22,120 Speaker 4: let your gia. 1031 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,239 Speaker 2: How does one Because if you're not a researcher, but 1032 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 2: aren't you, I mean you're a researcher. You're what's it 1033 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 2: really take to be if you're going into the cave 1034 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 2: to look at shit? That's researching, right, You don't need 1035 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,319 Speaker 2: a piece of paper to say you're yeah. 1036 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:38,719 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1037 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 4: So like I do map caves. I I make my 1038 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 4: own maps and publish them through a caving club. But 1039 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 4: like they're looking for more people who have like who 1040 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 4: can study animals like cave adapted life, or study the geology, 1041 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,800 Speaker 4: or study like why this cave the way it is is? 1042 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:00,120 Speaker 4: Why is this cave the way it is? You know know, 1043 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:04,240 Speaker 4: like so like the average caver doesn't typically get permission 1044 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 4: to go visit the bottom of letagee and see all 1045 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 4: the cool stuff. 1046 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 2: Why is this cave the way it is? It's profound 1047 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:12,840 Speaker 2: good question. 1048 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 4: I think that all the time. 1049 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 2: Zeus, Is there anything else you want to say to 1050 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:20,440 Speaker 2: the people of the computer before we go? 1051 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:24,200 Speaker 6: Uh? 1052 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:28,439 Speaker 2: I love you get Thank you Zeus.

I guess someone's got to see what's 1061 00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,759 Speaker 2: going on in those caves. We thank Zeus for being 1062 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 2: that's someone who from Alexia. 1063 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 4: Hello, Oh my god, Hello, Hi. 1064 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 2: What's your name? 1065 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 3: My name is Alexia. 1066 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:15,680 Speaker 2: What's up, Alexia?

Yeah, what 1069 00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:24,880 Speaker 2: are you doing in the middle of the forest. 1070 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:27,920 Speaker 3: I'm actually at work. I do feel botany, so I'm 1071 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,120 Speaker 3: like hiding plants and measuring trees and shit. 1072 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,840 Speaker 2: Oh cool. How how tall was the last tree that 1073 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 2: you measured? 1074 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:38,120 Speaker 3: Well, we measure the diameter, so I don't know, is 1075 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:40,839 Speaker 3: maybe like a diameter of twenty. 1076 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 2: Five a diameter of twenty five? 1077 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean like sometimes we measure the height, but 1078 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 3: we're usually doing uh width for it. 1079 00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you think trees are important people? 1080 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,919 Speaker 3: I do think trees are important to people, seeing as 1081 00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 3: we can't really like breathe without oxygen. 1082 00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 2: That's true. I was gonna ask why you think trees 1083 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,960 Speaker 2: are important? But that's good. But this this does make 1084 00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 2: sense the whole but the whole thing of trees providing oxygen. 1085 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:15,959 Speaker 2: I mean I'm in a city and there's like two 1086 00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 2: trees in the whole city and everyone's breathing. Fine, you 1087 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,160 Speaker 2: know does that How does that work? 1088 00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 4: Well? 1089 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,680 Speaker 3: I think the idea is that like all the trees 1090 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 3: on the planet like dispersed the oxygen because there's something 1091 00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 3: like I don't know, this is like totally made up maybe, 1092 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:36,240 Speaker 3: but like the Amazon rainforest provides like some big percent 1093 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 3: of oxygen for the whole planet. So I don't know. 1094 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,320 Speaker 3: I think it just spreads around. 1095 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 2: Alexia is was there a particular thing that you wanted 1096 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 2: to talk about today? 1097 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 3: No, I mean I just saw the you posted on 1098 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:55,280 Speaker 3: your Instagram.

So we do like, 1112 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 3: uh like forest assessments for like military land, like soldiers 1113 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,120 Speaker 3: come out here and train and then we come through 1114 00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,319 Speaker 3: and see like how bad they messed it up or 1115 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:53,000 Speaker 3: like how like if they can go back to the spot. 1116 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 3: I'm not totally sure. I just take all the data 1117 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 3: for it. My boss does whatever else with it. 1118 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 2: And do you ever see any cool animals while you're 1119 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:04,879 Speaker 2: doing it? Oh? 1120 00:56:04,960 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, we see. So I'm in Alaska and it's actually 1121 00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:11,279 Speaker 3: interesting because I've heard recently that you've had a lot 1122 00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:14,360 Speaker 3: of callers in Alaska, but you don't they don't seem 1123 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,640 Speaker 3: to be interior. I live in Fairbanks in the interior. 1124 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 2: What does that mean? Interior? Exterior? 1125 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:26,520 Speaker 3: So like the exterior is anywhere like around the coast 1126 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,720 Speaker 3: or like I don't know, maybe like one hundred miles 1127 00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:34,360 Speaker 3: in from the coast, and then the interior is maybe 1128 00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:38,200 Speaker 3: like because there's like a mountain range that borders the coast, 1129 00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 3: and I think the interior is considered inside the mountain range. 1130 00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:47,400 Speaker 3: So I'm in, like I'm in like central eastern Alaska. 1131 00:56:48,640 --> 00:56:50,400 Speaker 2: I want to go. I'm going to Alaska. I have 1132 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 2: a show there in October. I'm gonna probably do. 1133 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,359 Speaker 3: Some I know, I'm literally signed up for the I'm 1134 00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 3: signed up for the thing.

Go ahead? 1137 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,319 Speaker 3: Oh sorry, yeah, Well everyone from Fairbanks has to go 1138 00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 3: to Anchorage for like events and stuff, and it's like 1139 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 3: six hour drive. So I'm pretty stoked for that. It's 1140 00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 3: gonna be fun. I think if you get the chance, 1141 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,360 Speaker 3: you should come to Fairbanks. Although it's October so there's 1142 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 3: probably not a lot happening, I you know. 1143 00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 2: I to me, when people say like, oh, there's not 1144 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 2: a lot happening because it's you know, X month, I 1145 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 2: never I never like when people say that, because it's like, 1146 00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 2: you know, listen, there's some The main attractions of any 1147 00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 2: place to me are like, you know, just some fucking 1148 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 2: guy walking around, you know, and everywhere you know, I'm 1149 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:51,400 Speaker 2: whatever the weather, whatever the time, everywhere in the world, 1150 00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:54,600 Speaker 2: there's always just you know, some fucking guy walking around 1151 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 2: eating something, and I want to talk to that guy. 1152 00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 2: So I don't, like, I don't always people do this 1153 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 2: thing about the weather where it's like, why would you 1154 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 2: go there in that weather?
