WEBVTT - Can We Fall In Love Quickly, Please? 

0:00:00.040 --> 0:00:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Can we fall in love quickly? Please? I have a

0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>two o'clock. It's one more thing.

0:00:05.440 --> 0:00:08.119
<v Speaker 2>That's great thanking for before we get to this. And

0:00:08.160 --> 0:00:11.239
<v Speaker 2>I know the podcast lives on forever and you might

0:00:11.280 --> 0:00:13.119
<v Speaker 2>be listening to this six years from now, but if

0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:17.640
<v Speaker 2>you're listening to it anywhere near June the fifth, twenty

0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:22.520
<v Speaker 2>twenty five, Elon just started shooting back at Trump on Twitter.

0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:24.840
<v Speaker 2>We talked about it a lot on the radio show.

0:00:24.880 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 2>We think by the end of by sunset today on

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.520
<v Speaker 2>June fifth, they will be taking personal shots at each

0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 2>other as two of the most powerful people on earth

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:34.600
<v Speaker 2>that you can't imagine.

0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:37.440
<v Speaker 1>I say it happens while I'm still picking my lunch

0:00:37.479 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 1>out of my teeth. It's not gonna be till sunset. Holy.

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:43.839
<v Speaker 2>Elon just said Trump would not have won without me.

0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:47.840
<v Speaker 2>That's gonna piss Trump off. That's gonna really get under

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:48.200
<v Speaker 2>his skin.

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh boy, all right, Moron, that's come on the live

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:54.760
<v Speaker 1>radio show tomorrow. If you're listening today, If you're listening tomorrow,

0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 1>it was yesterday. If you're listening three days from now,

0:00:57.240 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 1>it was a week from two.

0:00:58.720 --> 0:01:00.960
<v Speaker 2>If you're listening in four years, how is AI working

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 2>out of any robots drained your blood or anything.

0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Eating your liver straight out of your belly. All right,

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 1>a moment to center ourself. Now, Oh, there we go.

0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:14.880
<v Speaker 1>So I'm reading my reams and reams of media the

0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>other day and I came across what was a follow

0:01:17.319 --> 0:01:22.600
<v Speaker 1>up article on a woman who writes a well loved

0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:26.800
<v Speaker 1>column about love, and it was a ten year follow

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:33.400
<v Speaker 1>up on her relationship with her man, which began with

0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:38.039
<v Speaker 1>an essay from well, it's a study, an essay a

0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:43.319
<v Speaker 1>thing of a jigger from a psychologist about whether intimacy

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 1>between two strangers can be accelerated, how you can go

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>through a process and be in love or damn close

0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:56.360
<v Speaker 1>to it at the end of the very very brief process.

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:58.360
<v Speaker 2>So that you can get to the divorce by dinner

0:01:58.400 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 2>time or what?

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Wow, I don't you're in a hurry. I don't know exactly,

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:08.360
<v Speaker 1>although before you get to your harsh and idiotic judgments something. Now,

0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:12.760
<v Speaker 1>I sound like trumpet elon, don't I let me explain

0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:16.200
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here? And I guess this made a

0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:19.800
<v Speaker 1>bit of noise around ten years ago. I either missed

0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:27.520
<v Speaker 1>it or have forgotten about it. Thirty six questions, broken

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>up into three sets you go through with that person,

0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:37.840
<v Speaker 1>and then you stare into each other's eyes for four minutes.

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Now some people say two minutes is enough, some people

0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 1>say it really takes four minutes. So you go through

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 1>these thirty six questions which I will absolutely read you,

0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.359
<v Speaker 1>and then you stare into each other's eyes, and by

0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:55.800
<v Speaker 1>the end of it, if there is love to be

0:02:55.880 --> 0:03:01.520
<v Speaker 1>found there, you'll have found it. The idea being I

0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:02.919
<v Speaker 1>can explain it to you, but go ahead.

0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 2>So I've thought this many times in my life before

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 2>we even had this discussion. I look back over people

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 2>that I ended up in relationships with, and you know,

0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 2>the feeling that we generally call love, although what what

0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 2>it love is, it gets very very complicated. I mean,

0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:22.280
<v Speaker 2>the long lasting dedication to supporting someone blah blah blah

0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:26.359
<v Speaker 2>versus the you know, butterflies in your stomach la la lalla,

0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:30.960
<v Speaker 2>but not to mention the hats, uh yeah, but the

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 2>the closely related to the butterflies, the butterflies thing of mine.

0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:38.400
<v Speaker 2>In every instance it's happened to me in my life.

0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:43.440
<v Speaker 2>I can remember the moment that our eyes locked for

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:47.360
<v Speaker 2>however long, and that's when the magic happens. Of nobody

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:51.760
<v Speaker 2>actually understands if it's pheromones, or we read each other's

0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:57.080
<v Speaker 2>genome and realize we could have healthy kids together, or

0:03:57.400 --> 0:04:00.120
<v Speaker 2>what the hell goes on there? But I got I

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 2>remember the moment for every situation, and that's when it happened.

0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 2>So I can absolutely believe that if you went through

0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:10.000
<v Speaker 2>a room like a big group of people and y'all

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:12.280
<v Speaker 2>both star at each other's for a certain percentage, I

0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:14.480
<v Speaker 2>don't know what percentage you it would happen.

0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, and feel free to jump in whenever you want,

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Katie or Michael or home you know, either one. But

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.720
<v Speaker 1>that it's funny I got. I got like an electric

0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.880
<v Speaker 1>charge through me when you describe that we met eyes

0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:30.480
<v Speaker 1>and moment, and nobody has to fill out what happens

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 1>after the end. Everybody who's ever fallen in love knows it,

0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:39.400
<v Speaker 1>and it can be an extremely brief yeah, locking of eyes.

0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, That's that's why I've always thought, if you get

0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 2>turned down, you got to just realize that whatever whatever

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.800
<v Speaker 2>this magic was, wasn't there. You don't have to take

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:49.360
<v Speaker 2>it personally.

0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 1>It's not a rejection of your qualities as a human being.

0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:54.279
<v Speaker 1>It feels like it is, and I always thought it

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 1>was but no, it's it's funny. I had this this

0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:01.719
<v Speaker 1>experience years ago of I was walking through an airport

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and there are all sorts of human beings. There are

0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:06.720
<v Speaker 1>some of the best people watching on earth, including you know,

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>attractive females, and I am a flaming heterosexual though faithfully married,

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:14.240
<v Speaker 1>and I passed one woman and my brain about exploded.

0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:15.640
<v Speaker 2>Wow, that's interesting.

0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:20.479
<v Speaker 1>She was my type. And you know, it's probably not

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:23.520
<v Speaker 1>an insane to state that she looked a fair amount

0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:25.720
<v Speaker 1>like my wife did when she was young and we

0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>got together, but it was it was striking. It was

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.680
<v Speaker 1>like she's good looking, she's kind of hot, ha ha.

0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 1>It was. It was crazy, and so I thought, wow,

0:05:36.480 --> 0:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>there is something going on there, whether it's Freudian biochemical

0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:43.600
<v Speaker 1>as you're suggesting, or whatever that either is or it isn't.

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:45.719
<v Speaker 2>I believe we read each other's genomes with our with

0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:48.840
<v Speaker 2>our minds. But yes, Michael Show, did your mouth I

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:50.440
<v Speaker 2>love you too? Well?

0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 1>No, I said it. I grabbed her in both my

0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.240
<v Speaker 1>arms and gave her a long kid. You're like the

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:58.200
<v Speaker 1>sailor with the nurse after World War two exactly. And

0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:04.080
<v Speaker 1>when the cops stopped beating me anyway, all right, So

0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:13.360
<v Speaker 1>here's the stuff. I love you, that's us So all right,

0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>here's the story this. Psychologist Arthur Aaron and others were

0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:21.960
<v Speaker 1>exploring whether intimacy between two strangers can be accelerated by

0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:25.120
<v Speaker 1>having them ask each other a specific series of personal questions.

0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:27.680
<v Speaker 1>The thirty six questions in the study are broken up

0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:30.359
<v Speaker 1>into three sets, each, with each set intended to be

0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:33.720
<v Speaker 1>more probing than the previous one. The idea is that

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:39.200
<v Speaker 1>mutual vulnerability fosters closeness. To quote the studies authors quote,

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:43.320
<v Speaker 1>one key pattern associating with the development of close relationship

0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:50.680
<v Speaker 1>among peers is sustained, escalating reciprocal personal self disclosure. Allowing

0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:54.599
<v Speaker 1>oneself to be vulnerable with another person can be exceedingly difficult,

0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:59.599
<v Speaker 1>so this exercise forces the issue. Now, I can't remember, Jacket,

0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:01.280
<v Speaker 1>may have been during the radio show when we were

0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:06.240
<v Speaker 1>talking about doing this. You asked, is accelerating it necessarily

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:07.840
<v Speaker 1>a good idea? Well, what you are?

0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:10.320
<v Speaker 2>Would you want to? Or is the drawn out process

0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.600
<v Speaker 2>of it happening at the pace it currently happens? Is

0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:15.160
<v Speaker 2>like the greatest thing in the world is do.

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.520
<v Speaker 1>You earn your way in? Is the way I'd put it.

0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 2>So like here's how to skip over having to eat

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:24.840
<v Speaker 2>Thanksgiving dinner. It takes too long to enjoy those flavors.

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:26.800
<v Speaker 2>Here you can enjoy all the flavors immediately in like

0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:27.920
<v Speaker 2>two seconds.

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.960
<v Speaker 1>In a pill. I don't want to well, right, and again,

0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:37.200
<v Speaker 1>it could be argued that the time spent working your

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:39.680
<v Speaker 1>way from set one to set two in real life,

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 1>that's an application process. Like I said, you've got to

0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:43.760
<v Speaker 1>earn your way in.

0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Maybe your heart would explode if you fell in love

0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 2>instantly alta.

0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Well as opposed to all right, let's move on to

0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:57.640
<v Speaker 1>a higher level of intimacy. Ready, here we go, I mean, anyway,

0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:00.960
<v Speaker 1>it's an interesting theory. And the one you're done, you

0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:04.400
<v Speaker 1>stare into each other's eyes for four minutes set number one.

0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's go through the question.

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:09.680
<v Speaker 2>You can't stare into someone someone's eyes. You can pick

0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:13.360
<v Speaker 2>an eye and stare into it, thank you, And it's

0:08:13.360 --> 0:08:14.200
<v Speaker 2>always bothered me.

0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Mike, if I feel like we're losing the thread here,

0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:18.800
<v Speaker 1>you pick an eye and you stare into that eye,

0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:20.680
<v Speaker 1>and maybe they're staring into the same eye as you,

0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:23.240
<v Speaker 1>or you're staring into two different eyes, or you alter

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 1>their left and they're staring into your right, so you

0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:28.080
<v Speaker 1>aren't really even looking at each other. Wow. And what

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 1>if you're like me and you have the crazy eyes

0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:35.680
<v Speaker 1>exactly right? Got them real tor eyes? Yeah, that's that's funny.

0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>It's neurological truth. Thank you Jack. Here we go now,

0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 1>set number one. This definitely starts with ice breaking party

0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.440
<v Speaker 1>game and moves on from there. Here's your first set

0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:52.080
<v Speaker 1>of twelve twelve questions. I think it is twelve. Yeah. Uh. One,

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 1>given the choice of anyone in the world, whom would

0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:58.480
<v Speaker 1>you want to as a dinner guest? Just stop me

0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:00.080
<v Speaker 1>if you want me to stop, we can discuss the

0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.160
<v Speaker 1>the greater length animal after two? Would you like to

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:09.760
<v Speaker 1>be famous? In what way? I would? Well? Yeah, answer

0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:15.199
<v Speaker 1>if we If we answer all of these Number one,

0:09:15.200 --> 0:09:17.280
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be really time consuming. Number two, we'll

0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:19.160
<v Speaker 1>all be in love with each other and that would

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>make it super weird to do the show a trumple

0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:25.319
<v Speaker 1>or quadruple or whatever. Yeah, good lord, it was right?

0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:26.160
<v Speaker 1>All right? Here we go.

0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:26.880
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Before making a telephone call, do you ever rehearse what

0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 1>you're going to say? Why this is? I tell you what?

0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:35.960
<v Speaker 1>As you work your way because I've read all these

0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:40.400
<v Speaker 1>as I work my way through them. I definitely felt

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:43.760
<v Speaker 1>a I would feel really close to this person?

0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 2>Is this yeah? I don't want to get off track.

0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:48.319
<v Speaker 2>Here is the assumption that if you answer the same

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:52.800
<v Speaker 2>you are a better fit or is it just not

0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.280
<v Speaker 2>at all? Okay, it's just the having the conversation is

0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:57.120
<v Speaker 2>a way to find out about.

0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:59.079
<v Speaker 1>Each other, you know. As I said in the UH

0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:06.520
<v Speaker 1>and the introduction, it's all about escalating vulnerability and trust reciprocal.

0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Where is that phrase, escalating reciprocal personal self disclosure? Okay?

0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:17.800
<v Speaker 1>Where were we? What would constitute the perfect day for you?

0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 1>What did you last sing to yourself or to someone else?

0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:26.319
<v Speaker 2>I sing to myself every single day.

0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Every day, although this shows ruined my throat. Six. If

0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:32.440
<v Speaker 1>you were able to live to the age of ninety

0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.000
<v Speaker 1>and retain either the mind or body of a thirty

0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:37.480
<v Speaker 1>year old for the last sixty years of your life,

0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:38.600
<v Speaker 1>which would you want?

0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:43.640
<v Speaker 2>That's an obvious one to me. Without the brain, what

0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:44.720
<v Speaker 2>the hell's the point?

0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 1>I'd be handsome as hell. What's the point of being

0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:49.120
<v Speaker 1>some brainiac?

0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:52.720
<v Speaker 2>You're old and wandering around the neighborhood. No, your brain's fine.

0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Seven? No, do you have a secret hunch how you

0:10:56.559 --> 0:11:01.959
<v Speaker 1>will die? A Name three things you and your partner

0:11:02.000 --> 0:11:04.880
<v Speaker 1>appear to have in common. Your partner being the person

0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:05.800
<v Speaker 1>that you're doing this with.

0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:16.679
<v Speaker 2>That last one clearly h ob halo bullets.

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Terminal syphilis because I play around a lot. Oh my gosh, horror.

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:24.600
<v Speaker 1>That is great pleasure in life. I can't give up.

0:11:24.960 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, yep, dad from syphilis. All right, Moving on

0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:34.199
<v Speaker 1>to question eight, I'll say fireworks accident. All right, Name

0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:36.480
<v Speaker 1>three things you and your partner appear to have in common.

0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:40.000
<v Speaker 1>That's that's a good little bonding one. Eight. What in

0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:42.719
<v Speaker 1>your life do you for? What in your life do

0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:48.120
<v Speaker 1>you feel most grateful? Ten? If you could change anything

0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:50.320
<v Speaker 1>about the way you were raised, what would it be?

0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:51.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's a good one.

0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh and that is getting a little more deeply into

0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:59.600
<v Speaker 1>who I am. You are? And yeah, take number eleven.

0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:02.280
<v Speaker 1>Take four minutes and tell your partner your life story

0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 1>in as much detail as possible.

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:07.920
<v Speaker 2>Take how many minutes? Four minutes, as much as the

0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:09.560
<v Speaker 2>period of time four minutes?

0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah. Uh. If you could wake up tomorrow having

0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:17.520
<v Speaker 1>gained any one quality or ability, what would it be? Oh? Boy,

0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:21.120
<v Speaker 1>there we go. Uh huh. Here's where the guy says

0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:25.360
<v Speaker 1>something stupid and the woman rolls her eyes, but then realizes,

0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:28.840
<v Speaker 1>now he's a dope boy, but I kind of like him,

0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 1>which you know, honestly, I can think of several instances

0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:37.560
<v Speaker 1>in a couple of relationships, particularly with the Lovely Judith,

0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:44.600
<v Speaker 1>where the vibe was, I've been an idiot and I

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:49.240
<v Speaker 1>screwed up, but you're forgiving me and laughing along with me.

0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:50.960
<v Speaker 1>That's that's a step.

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:52.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh huge, that's huge.

0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, ron to set too. Does anybody need to have

0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:58.720
<v Speaker 1>a good cry or wipe their nose.

0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:02.319
<v Speaker 2>Can kind of screwed me up a little, to tighten.

0:13:02.040 --> 0:13:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Their pelt or anything? All right, on set too. So

0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:08.520
<v Speaker 1>this question thirteen, if a crystal ball could tell you

0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:11.600
<v Speaker 1>the truth about yourself, your life, the future, or anything else,

0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>what would you want to know?

0:13:15.520 --> 0:13:16.400
<v Speaker 2>That's a tough one.

0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, huh.

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Who's going to win Super Bowl fifty seven?

0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:30.400
<v Speaker 1>All right? Next question? Is there something that you've dreamed

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.360
<v Speaker 1>of doing for a long time? Why haven't you done it?

0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:38.960
<v Speaker 1>That's a good one. Again, you're gonna have to admit,

0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:43.200
<v Speaker 1>so say what I'm going to do too much and.

0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:46.760
<v Speaker 2>Start on it too little laziness, fear, whatever it would be,

0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:48.800
<v Speaker 2>whatever it would be, it wouldn't be an attractive quality.

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:50.439
<v Speaker 2>So that's a good question for that reason.

0:13:51.040 --> 0:13:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, escalating levels vulnerability. Here we go. Fifteen, what

0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:58.720
<v Speaker 1>is the greatest accomplishment of your life? What do you

0:13:58.840 --> 0:14:00.440
<v Speaker 1>value most in a friend ship?

0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.320
<v Speaker 2>Fourth of July, couple of years ago. I ate seven

0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:04.480
<v Speaker 2>hot dogs in one sitting.

0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:09.280
<v Speaker 1>Why impressive? That is great? Moving along to the friendship thing.

0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Then seventeen is what is your most treasured memory? And

0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:17.680
<v Speaker 1>then eighteen what is your most terrible memory?

0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh? My god, fuck, I don't even know if I

0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:22.360
<v Speaker 2>want to think about that, but I could see why

0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:24.000
<v Speaker 2>it would be a valuable conversation.

0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no kidding. Nineteen options if a skip? No, no,

0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:32.280
<v Speaker 1>absolutely not. You can't skip. I'm rejecting you for even

0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 1>suggesting it. Next, let's get started with question one. Here

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>we go, Let's say nineteen if you knew that in

0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:40.560
<v Speaker 1>one year you would die suddenly, would you change anything

0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:42.360
<v Speaker 1>about the way you are living now?

0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:44.400
<v Speaker 2>Why these are good?

0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Yeah? And the way they kind of go up

0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 1>and down in intensity I think is super small. You

0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.480
<v Speaker 1>got to send me this list, Oh I will, I

0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:52.080

0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:30.760
<v Speaker 1>to die this evening with no opportunity to communicate with anyone,

0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:34.119
<v Speaker 1>what would you most regret not having told someone?

0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 2>Wow?

0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:39.440
<v Speaker 1>And why haven't you told them yet? Wow? I think

0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:47.520
<v Speaker 1>we're all gonna need a minute. Wow gitting for clemped? Yeah? Yeah, Okay.

0:19:47.680 --> 0:19:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Now when the two of you are both done crying,

0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:55.800
<v Speaker 1>you can continue with number thirty four. Your house containing

0:19:55.880 --> 0:19:58.880
<v Speaker 1>everything you own, catches fire. After saving your loved ones

0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:00.439
<v Speaker 1>and pets, you have time to say, if we make

0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a final dash to save any one item, what would

0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:08.080
<v Speaker 1>it be and why it wouldn't be my fire extinguisher

0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:09.280
<v Speaker 1>because it didn't do me any good.

0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:14.000
<v Speaker 2>I assume you're not thinking about like your tax files

0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:17.240
<v Speaker 2>or birth certificates or something, or are you.

0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:20.879
<v Speaker 1>You answer however you want? You're telling me how to answer.

0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:24.560
<v Speaker 1>You're too oppressive. Next, let's start again with question one.

0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:28.000
<v Speaker 1>He's telling me how to answer the questions.

0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:30.680
<v Speaker 2>There'll probably be paperwork actually.

0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Boring.

0:20:32.720 --> 0:20:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know, but there's some things it would be

0:20:34.720 --> 0:20:37.600
<v Speaker 2>really really really really difficult to lose.

0:20:38.119 --> 0:20:43.080
<v Speaker 1>The classic answer wedding photos, family pictures, a lot of

0:20:43.080 --> 0:20:43.919
<v Speaker 1>them are on the cloud.

0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:47.320
<v Speaker 2>Now yeah, yeah, wow.

0:20:49.960 --> 0:20:52.399
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know what's interesting about this question is you

0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:55.400
<v Speaker 1>can sit here and think about it, whereas the very

0:20:55.680 --> 0:20:58.240
<v Speaker 1>structure of the question implies you would have no time

0:20:58.280 --> 0:21:02.840
<v Speaker 1>to think about it. Wow. I don't even know the

0:21:02.960 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 1>answer to that question. It's like, it's a really interesting

0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:09.440
<v Speaker 1>question and worth the discussion in this context. But that's

0:21:09.480 --> 0:21:11.600
<v Speaker 1>like one of those you know, how would you react

0:21:11.600 --> 0:21:12.879
<v Speaker 1>if someone pulled a gun on you?

0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Well, the problem with this is, uh, a lot

0:21:16.119 --> 0:21:18.159
<v Speaker 2>of the answers could sound really shallow. I mean, if

0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:20.239
<v Speaker 2>I've got my loved ones out and everything like that,

0:21:20.280 --> 0:21:22.679
<v Speaker 2>and like if all important paperwork is in a safe,

0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:25.200
<v Speaker 2>which in my case it is, which bright survived the fire,

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:28.840
<v Speaker 2>and then it's probably gonna be something kind of material.

0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:33.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm afraid I PlayStation five. Yeah, something like that. I

0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:35.639
<v Speaker 2>got a couple of guitars I'd hate to see burned up.

0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:40.520
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say, I might grab my telecaster. It's

0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:44.320
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a totem of some of the best times

0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:47.439
<v Speaker 1>I've ever had. It was in my hand while I

0:21:47.560 --> 0:21:50.960
<v Speaker 1>was doing some of the things I've loved the most. Anyway, Uh,

0:21:51.520 --> 0:21:53.760
<v Speaker 1>but you know it's again, it's not it's not like

0:21:53.760 --> 0:21:55.080
<v Speaker 1>there's a right or wrong answer.

0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:57.760
<v Speaker 2>So there's a wrong answer. I'm sorry, that's the wrong answer.

0:21:57.960 --> 0:22:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Right my collection of iguana hide. I mean, the point

0:22:02.119 --> 0:22:05.440
<v Speaker 1>is that you're being intimate anyway. Moving along, second, last one,

0:22:05.480 --> 0:22:08.200
<v Speaker 1>thirty five of all the people in your family, whose

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:12.640
<v Speaker 1>death would you find most disturbing? My god, what kind

0:22:12.680 --> 0:22:15.919
<v Speaker 1>of question is that? It's a question that only people

0:22:15.920 --> 0:22:19.960
<v Speaker 1>who are really, really close would deal with. Wow, this

0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:20.960
<v Speaker 1>is what we're doing.

0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Because you pick one. You got to leave some people out, obviously.

0:22:25.240 --> 0:22:30.280
<v Speaker 1>And then this is the last one. Share a personal

0:22:30.359 --> 0:22:33.239
<v Speaker 1>problem and ask your partner's advice on how he or

0:22:33.280 --> 0:22:36.400
<v Speaker 1>she might handle it. Also, ask your partner to reflect

0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:40.680
<v Speaker 1>back to you how you seem to be feeling about

0:22:40.720 --> 0:22:45.000
<v Speaker 1>the problem. You have chosen. Oh, I get it. Okay,

0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:50.880
<v Speaker 1>So how would you handle this? And can you tell

0:22:50.920 --> 0:22:57.560
<v Speaker 1>how I feel about this problem? How? What? What are

0:22:57.600 --> 0:23:03.760
<v Speaker 1>you sensing from me when I describe this? So don't

0:23:03.800 --> 0:23:07.840
<v Speaker 1>just solve it for me. Understand what I'm really trying

0:23:07.880 --> 0:23:08.280
<v Speaker 1>to tell you.

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:13.040
