1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,719
Speaker 1: It's one hundred degrees outside. Let's go get our Christmas tree.

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: It's one more thing. I'm strong and getty. One more thing. Waw.

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 1: It's a texting related conversation. We'll get to them a

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: little bit, but first, some hilarity I'm hoping from Jimmy

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 1: Fallon on the Tonight Show last night. Well, guys, we're

6
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: heading into flu season. But great news.

7
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 2: The FDA just authorized the first over the counter combination

8
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 2: COVID nineteen and flu test.

9
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, this test really does it all. Check out this commercial.

10
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 3: The FDA's new combination COVID test is quick, reliable, and

11
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 3: easy to use. Simply collect your sample, drop it onto

12
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 3: the test strip, wait thirty minutes, and view year results.

13
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 3: The first line is the control line. A second line

14
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 3: means you have COVID. A third line means you have

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 3: the flu. Four lines means common cold, five lines means scurvy,

16
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 3: Six lines congress you're pregnant. Seven lines means you're not pregnant,

17
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 3: you just ate a big lunch. Eight lines means your

18
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 3: crush likes you back. Nine lines means you're such a

19
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 3: scorpioes means your friend Gary wants you to text him back.

20
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 2: Text Gary back and no lines means you're dead.

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,759
Speaker 3: The new COVID and Crew tests now available at CBS

22
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 3: in our pre easter aisle.

23
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 1: That was amazing. They're pre easter asle. The way they

24
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: do that at those big convenience stores. Oh my god,

25
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 1: just overwhelming amounts of whatever the next holiday is going

26
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: to be, right.

27
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 2: Right, it's a seasonal aisles.

28
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: I was amazed by the things you can or can't

29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: find at like a CBS or a Walgreens. I'm often

30
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: shocked that, wow, they have this, and often shocked that

31
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,440
Speaker 1: they don't have this. Yeah, you know, like I need

32
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: some automotive to something or other, and they have that

33
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: than some other normal household thing I think, and they

34
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:46,839
Speaker 1: don't carry that for some reason.

35
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: I'm still lunged away by how early Christmas stuff starts

36
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 4: popping up each year.

37
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: It's like creeping in closer to the summer. Yeah. That

38
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: that has been a point of humor, like my whole

39
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: adult life. But it's reached so much absurdity now that

40
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 1: I don't even it's practically year round. Yeah. Costco especially,

41
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: and I often think that, you know, they're a for

42
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: profit business and very smart, and they've got a tremendous

43
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: amount of data. I assume they wouldn't put the Halloween

44
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 1: stuff in there as soon as they take out the

45
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: fourth of July stuff unless it works somehow.

46
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: Oh sure, right, Yeah, they have a certain amount of

47
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 2: floor space and they've done the data analysis. It's like

48
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 2: CBS or Walgreens or whatever with the season allisles. It's

49
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 2: just nobody goes there. Nobody goes shopping there to buy

50
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 2: Halloween decorations. But you see something the cute as an

51
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: impulse buy, they must make it work and you.

52
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 1: Get your combination COVID flu test and head on home.

53
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 4: A lot of companies now do the Christmas in July thing,

54
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 4: Christmas in July sales. I don't know why that irritates

55
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 4: me so much.

56
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: What does that mean?

57
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 4: They start selling Christmas products in July. It's just like

58
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 4: Black Friday in July. It's that's their thing. It's hey,

59
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 4: it's Christmas in July, and they just think it's the

60
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 4: greatest thing.

61
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: I don't know why it annoys you in particular, Katie,

62
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: but you're an old soul. I just what what occurred

63
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 2: to me when I was raising my kids? And this

64
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: is such a weird example, but it works for me.

65
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: We used to in my generation wait all year for

66
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: the Christmas specials, the kids Christmas specials, Charlie Brown, Christmas Rudolph,

67
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 2: you know the rest of them. Yeah, Frosty, the dialed

68
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 2: back Snowman.

69
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: I'm Frosty, I Q.

70
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: You're what was the one with the heat Miser? And uh,

71
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 2: I don't know, it doesn't matter.

72
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: Uh, but we used to Weiser the Abominable Snowman. Was

73
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: it its own thing?

74
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: No, but of course the Grinch and uh and and

75
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 2: and yeah, the heat Miser and like the Winter Warlock,

76
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: Santa Claus is coming to town, I think right any

77
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: that had the hot puppet chick in it his love interest.

78
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: Whoo man, they spent some time on her wood. They

79
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 2: carved it up right anyway, stop action sexy, That's what

80
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: I say.

81
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 1: Where were we he is talking about a puppet? Folks,

82
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: here we go.

83
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 2: Oh but we'd wait all year for that, and then

84
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 2: it would be a very special thing. And then when

85
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 2: my kids were little, we just bought the VHS tapes

86
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 2: and everything is available all the time, and the concept

87
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 2: of the rhythms of the year unfolding just it's gone away.

88
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: Now it's everything all the time, which I think is

89
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 2: part of the reason people are so crazy.

90
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the everything bagel for anybody who's seen the

91
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: movie that won the all the Oscars, everything everywhere, all

92
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 1: at once, m everything bagel. Yeah, I know. And I

93
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: can't tell if it's important or not. I really can't.

94
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: I know I preferred one or the other, but I

95
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: don't know if it's just a tiny, niche example of

96
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 1: something that changed for the worst but it doesn't have

97
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: any overall meeting, or if it says you say, it's

98
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: just all of life has become that. I don't know.

99
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: It's the second one.

100
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 2: And here's my evidence as usual, and maybe this is

101
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 2: backward reasoning. I don't know. But human beings for millions

102
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 2: of years saw life unfold in a certain rhythm. We're

103
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: made for that. We're not made to be shopping for

104
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 2: parkas in June or throwing on an extra zebra fer

105
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 2: or whatever we have been. We have been, you know,

106
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 2: part of the turning of the seasons since mankind crawled

107
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 2: out of the primority you lose or evolved from the

108
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 2: minky or whatever your particular view of of early man is.

109
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 2: It's all about the rhythm of the year unfolding it

110
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 2: now not anymore.

111
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: It's why we're so cuckoo. You couldn't go to the

112
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: village elders and say, let's do the harvest dance. It's

113
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: not harvest danced. There were six months away from the

114
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: harvest time.

115
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 2: Let's do it.

116
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: Why do we have to wait six months through the

117
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: harvest dance. Let's do it. It's a great dance.

118
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 2: And with the way you shake your leg and then

119
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 2: you shake your leg. No, no, no, it's not harvest.

120
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: Get back in your hunt or whatever right you have.

121
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: It's enough. Are you a very complicated view of evolution

122
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: or something? I don't know what it is.

123
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 2: Or don't you have a mammoth tusk to polish or

124
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 2: something else? I don't know a lot about prehistoric men.

125
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 1: I think you need to reread Sapiens perhaps out all right,

126
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: don't you have an arrowhead to craft?

127
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 2: You're on the arrowhead committee. Get to get to sharpen

128
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 2: or them with your with your stone axe.

129
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: M I agree?

130
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 4: Coming soon the Labor Days sale in February. Yeah, well,

131
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 4: I guess that's it.
