WEBVTT - Good Moms Grow Up

0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Once upon a time there was a good old traditional housewife.

0:00:03.680 --> 0:00:04.280
<v Speaker 2>She couldn't.

0:00:04.440 --> 0:00:06.840
<v Speaker 1>She cleaned and cared for her children and the man

0:00:06.880 --> 0:00:09.680
<v Speaker 1>of the house, and of course she didn't talk back.

0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 1>She was both obeed, hint and soft by nature. She

0:00:12.560 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 1>was a good woman who always made good choices.

0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:19.800
<v Speaker 3>That we're good mom's bad choices. Who single mom who

0:00:19.800 --> 0:00:22.400
<v Speaker 3>said fuck the patriarchy, shared all their bad choices and

0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:24.639
<v Speaker 3>sound out they were so bad. After all, we're experts,

0:00:24.680 --> 0:00:28.040
<v Speaker 3>overshares and your new besties. Sit back and enjoy the ride.

0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:34.000
<v Speaker 3>I can do it. Welcome back to good Mom's bad Choices.

0:00:34.040 --> 0:00:39.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm Erica and I'm Mela. Happy humpty bitches, Happy motherfucking

0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:39.720
<v Speaker 3>hump day?

0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.280
<v Speaker 4>What did it do? How are you feeling. I'm good.

0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 5>It's the second week of July. I can't believe how

0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:50.559
<v Speaker 5>quick the summer is going. It's getting very hot as

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 5>fuck in the valley, going to the beach a lot,

0:00:55.240 --> 0:01:00.240
<v Speaker 5>not getting in the water because I'm still scared. But yeah,

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:01.000
<v Speaker 5>I've been good.

0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 4>How are you? I'm good?

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 3>I know the summer is going by so fast. I

0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:11.039
<v Speaker 3>feel like, you know, like the summers get shorter as

0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 3>you get older, like you start to notice time I

0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:16.399
<v Speaker 3>feel like that a lot like that summer is getting shorter,

0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 3>time is going faster. I feel like we're going back

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:22.240
<v Speaker 3>to Costa Rica. We just got back. And I also

0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 3>feel like traveling and doing stuff is just like way

0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 3>more tolling on my body. Like it's not even that

0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:32.200
<v Speaker 3>we're doing a lot of things. It's just like packing,

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:35.160
<v Speaker 3>putting in the suitcase, washing, bringing it home, unpacking it,

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:37.120
<v Speaker 3>putting it back, getting on the airplane, sitting in the

0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:40.400
<v Speaker 3>stupid ass, stupid chair. It's just like, I don't know,

0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:43.480
<v Speaker 3>it's just taxing. And I'm like I need when we

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:45.640
<v Speaker 3>come back for like two or three weeks. I feel

0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 3>like I need eight weeks to recover. Leave for three weeks,

0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:55.600
<v Speaker 3>recover for six to eight She Kim told me that.

0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:00.440
<v Speaker 5>This summer specifically, actually the world the world is turning

0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.280
<v Speaker 5>on its access faster, So this is actually going to

0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 5>be the like one of the like fastest summers in

0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:09.359
<v Speaker 5>like recorded history or something like like like specifically this

0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 5>summer by like two hours or by like how like

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:15.680
<v Speaker 5>how much minutes, Because if every day is twenty four

0:02:15.680 --> 0:02:18.080
<v Speaker 5>hours and every month it's the same amount of days,

0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:20.040
<v Speaker 5>like how many minutes are we shaving off? I don't

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:21.280
<v Speaker 5>know because I told him, I was like, I feel

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:23.760
<v Speaker 5>like the time is being fucked with, And then like

0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:25.320
<v Speaker 5>a few days ago, he was like, I think you're

0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:26.519
<v Speaker 5>I think actually you're right.

0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:30.640
<v Speaker 3>Orlando told me that, did you say that the earth

0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.160
<v Speaker 3>is spending four hundred miles per hour or eight hundred

0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 3>eight hundred miles per hour?

0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:37.320
<v Speaker 4>But obviously we can't feel it like that. But like.

0:02:38.800 --> 0:02:43.240
<v Speaker 3>I, I, you know, I don't believe anything that the

0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:44.359
<v Speaker 3>government tells us.

0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:47.600
<v Speaker 4>So I just who says they're not fucking with the time.

0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:51.120
<v Speaker 3>Who actually sat there today, yesterday, or last week and

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:55.280
<v Speaker 3>counted every sixty seconds to every hour and said, yep,

0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:56.400
<v Speaker 3>they did it right.

0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:00.280
<v Speaker 4>We're just trusting the clocks and the cell phones.

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.240
<v Speaker 3>We don't have watches anymore really unless you have a roleax,

0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 3>and I doubt you even look at it. You just

0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:07.480
<v Speaker 3>look at the fucking phone. So if they were lying

0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 3>and shaving off thirty minutes a year, we fucking wouldn't know.

0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:12.960
<v Speaker 5>Well, if you had a watch, you probably would know.

0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.160
<v Speaker 5>But that's why I don't think they're actually maybe doing that.

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.480
<v Speaker 5>I think it's just like time is just adjusting, like

0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:21.639
<v Speaker 5>it's just moving faster. Like I think maybe the watches

0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 5>actually start moving faster because everything else is moving faster,

0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 5>like literally, like gravity.

0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:29.200
<v Speaker 3>Starts to pull the little thing face faster. I don't know.

0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:32.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean I always think about a time before there

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:36.400
<v Speaker 3>are watches and cell phones, and we were just measuring

0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 3>by season and by daylight and noon is here, and

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 3>nighttime and even birthdays, like you think thousands of years ago.

0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:48.640
<v Speaker 3>They're like, I'm thirty five, No, you were just an adult.

0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 5>Well, I said, I thought, well, if time is moving faster,

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 5>but we're not aging faster, does that mean we're going

0:03:55.720 --> 0:04:00.120
<v Speaker 5>to look younger longer. And he said, no, everything is

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:02.160
<v Speaker 5>going to keep moving, and so is your age. I'd

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.240
<v Speaker 5>so is your aging process?

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:07.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, okay, I think the aging process is because

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:11.000
<v Speaker 3>we're acknowledging time in this manner. Whoever, we have adopted

0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:15.240
<v Speaker 3>this programming that you know, twelve months is one year.

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:17.000
<v Speaker 4>Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:20.719
<v Speaker 3>And so technically I'm thirty seven, but in my soul

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:24.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm twenty four, So why would my soul not be right?

0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 3>And as long as I, in my soul deeply believe

0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:31.640
<v Speaker 3>that I'm twenty seven, I'm going to continue to look

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:33.719
<v Speaker 3>twenty seven. I thought you said your twenty four, I

0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:34.360
<v Speaker 3>mean twenty.

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.880
<v Speaker 4>Four, okay, whatever.

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:41.160
<v Speaker 3>As I said the other day at the party, that

0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:46.279
<v Speaker 3>i'm trans age, I identify as a twenty four year old,

0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 3>and if anyone disrespects me and calls me outside of

0:04:50.480 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 3>my trans age, we're going to have a problem. I

0:04:53.520 --> 0:04:56.360
<v Speaker 3>identify as a twenty four year old. I feel that way.

0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:59.640
<v Speaker 3>I was born this way, and it's twenty four like

0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 3>a good for you? Like why twenty four? You know?

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.159
<v Speaker 3>It just seems like you're just old enough to not

0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 3>be so stupid. I don't know. Twenty four I was

0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:11.320
<v Speaker 3>pretty fucking stupid. I'm twenty four with this, with this knowledge,

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:15.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm twenty four years old in my.

0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.719
<v Speaker 5>So what is it that you're adopting from twenty four?

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:19.400
<v Speaker 5>If you have the knowledge, what is it then? Because

0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:22.040
<v Speaker 5>you don't look thirty seven? So what about twenty four?

0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.040
<v Speaker 5>Do you need to adopt that? You can't adopt the

0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:26.159
<v Speaker 5>age that you are. It's I can't adopt the age

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:28.159
<v Speaker 5>I am. I just choose not to because I'm transa aged.

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:30.560
<v Speaker 3>But is it because you think thirty seven is old.

0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:32.320
<v Speaker 4>Or because I just don't feel thirty seven?

0:05:32.400 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Like, what does it mean to feel thirty seven that

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.839
<v Speaker 3>I've lived thirty seven years of life? But that's not

0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:37.719
<v Speaker 3>a long time though.

0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 5>I think about like the scheme of the scope of

0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:41.880
<v Speaker 5>life and how long you're going to hopefully live it,

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:43.960
<v Speaker 5>thirty seven is like still baby.

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:45.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean not really if you think about it.

0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 3>Most people are living to what ninety nine, one hundred

0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:50.680
<v Speaker 3>hopefully with technology and vitamins, I can at least make

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:53.479
<v Speaker 3>it to one twenty five. That's like another sixty years.

0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:57.600
<v Speaker 3>But Matt, if we live that's a third of your

0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.279
<v Speaker 3>life already. If we live one hundred years and tidal,

0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:05.280
<v Speaker 3>let's say, and I'm thirty seven, that's about sixty four

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:05.839
<v Speaker 3>years ago.

0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 4>I don't like that.

0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:11.640
<v Speaker 5>I mean, but technically you're still thirty seven. So your body,

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.159
<v Speaker 5>you're still you're still gonna die.

0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Respect.

0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:17.240
<v Speaker 3>If we're gonna be friends, you're gonna have to respect

0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:23.880
<v Speaker 3>my HI identifying okay, which is trance age of twenty four. Okay,

0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonnaed you to remember the age. If we go

0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 3>out and so it's like, oh my god, how old

0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:29.440
<v Speaker 3>are you? Like, oh this is my friend. She had

0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:30.560
<v Speaker 3>no because.

0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:31.880
<v Speaker 5>Everyone's gonna like, bitch, why are you hang out with

0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 5>a twenty four year old, that the fuck is wrong

0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:33.760
<v Speaker 5>with you?

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.000
<v Speaker 3>Where are you going? Especially they're gonna think you're twenty four?

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.239
<v Speaker 3>Do you want to be twenty four? No?

0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:39.919
<v Speaker 4>What was twenty four a bad year for you?

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:41.240
<v Speaker 3>I was.

0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it wasn't a bad year. I mean I

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.720
<v Speaker 5>was with my baby daddy, were traveling a lot.

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:48.440
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I don't ever remember, like, do you remember

0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 3>specifically twenty four, yes, because it was like two years

0:06:54.520 --> 0:06:56.040
<v Speaker 3>before I got pregnant. Yeah, like a year and a

0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:57.159
<v Speaker 3>half before I got pregnant.

0:06:57.440 --> 0:06:59.400
<v Speaker 5>So actually twenty four was a shitty year. Actually, I

0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 5>moved to New York. I was like in the midst

0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:04.119
<v Speaker 5>of a breakup. I was so confused. I was broke

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:04.719
<v Speaker 5>as fuck.

0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:07.440
<v Speaker 3>Oh I don't want to be twenty four. No, I

0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:09.680
<v Speaker 3>was sad. I was having a sex.

0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I'm twenty four with this.

0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:15.119
<v Speaker 3>I was security. I was like, broke as fuck. Fuck.

0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:17.120
<v Speaker 4>I mean, everybody's broken their twenties. It doesn't like I

0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 4>don't even thinking. I don't know. I wasn't broken. I

0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:20.200
<v Speaker 4>was twenty four, but I was stupid.

0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:23.480
<v Speaker 5>I was making dumb choices like I don't know, I

0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:25.400
<v Speaker 5>get it, but no, I don't think i'd want to

0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:27.480
<v Speaker 5>be four. If I was gonna choose a younger age

0:07:27.520 --> 0:07:31.720
<v Speaker 5>to be honestly, it would probably be like thirty one.

0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:34.840
<v Speaker 3>Thirty one was a good year. There's like I had

0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:38.160
<v Speaker 3>finally like twenty nine, I broke up with my baby daddy.

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:39.680
<v Speaker 3>Thirty I was like healing.

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:44.960
<v Speaker 5>Thirty one I was like prime outside like podcasts pop,

0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.800
<v Speaker 5>like just starting the podcast, like just just like discovering

0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.560
<v Speaker 5>all these new parts of myself, discovering all like building

0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 5>the tribe.

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.680
<v Speaker 3>Like that was a good That was a good time.

0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm not saying so much based on like Mike my

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 3>going back to that year because it was a mirror,

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.320
<v Speaker 3>but I would just like to be that age with

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:05.800
<v Speaker 3>this knowledge and this and this security and this like

0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 3>state of mind. I feel like in the twenty like

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:13.040
<v Speaker 3>I feel like I live my whole twenties without any

0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 3>like I mean, not experience, but just like there was

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:19.000
<v Speaker 3>just no care in the world, Like I didn't care

0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 3>about any of those things too. Yeah, So I was

0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 3>just like if I could go back to twenty four,

0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 3>but and I feel like I feel like twenty year

0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:28.800
<v Speaker 3>twenty the twenties now are more mature, maybe because the

0:08:28.800 --> 0:08:32.840
<v Speaker 3>Internet has more words. They have like more clarity. So

0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:35.720
<v Speaker 3>they're I mean watching Love Island. They're not that smart,

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:36.960
<v Speaker 3>but they do know the words.

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:39.840
<v Speaker 5>I think, I think perhaps a little bit, but as

0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:43.720
<v Speaker 5>i'm I'm like, actually, today one of my twenty four

0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.280
<v Speaker 5>year old I would say, she's like my little homegirl.

0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:47.360
<v Speaker 4>I was gonna say, but you don't want to be

0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:48.559
<v Speaker 4>friends with me when I'm twenty four.

0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:49.480
<v Speaker 3>I don't hang out with her.

0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 4>When I said I was transferring, I don't hang out

0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:51.920
<v Speaker 4>with her.

0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:54.839
<v Speaker 5>Like she calls me when she needs advice. Oh I'm

0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 5>not going to put her on that care right now,

0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:58.880
<v Speaker 5>but yeah, Like she calls me when she needs advice

0:08:59.080 --> 0:09:03.920
<v Speaker 5>and she's doing she's asking me some real twenty twenty

0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 5>two year old shit, and I'm like, girl.

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:08.760
<v Speaker 3>She send me pictures of shit, Like what what do

0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:09.600
<v Speaker 3>you think this means?

0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:12.920
<v Speaker 5>Do you think he's like a fluck boy and he's

0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:15.599
<v Speaker 5>like on stories with his abs out with Grace webpants on.

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:19.520
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, yes, he is definitely getting pussy outside of you.

0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:21.280
<v Speaker 3>And like, what do you think?

0:09:21.440 --> 0:09:22.640
<v Speaker 4>Not the streenshot?

0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:26.760
<v Speaker 3>So you know, like I don't know how much far along.

0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:29.000
<v Speaker 5>The youth is just based off the Internet. I thought

0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:31.360
<v Speaker 5>about I thought that that would be the case. But

0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 5>according to my calculation so far, based on the Yans

0:09:35.440 --> 0:09:39.680
<v Speaker 5>that I know, not the Whyans that I know, I'm

0:09:39.760 --> 0:09:43.400
<v Speaker 5>thinking the Internet actually isn't making them smarter, actually making

0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.360
<v Speaker 5>them question themselves even more and making them even more

0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:49.720
<v Speaker 5>confused and making them, specifically women, doubt their intuition even

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:52.960
<v Speaker 5>more because there's so much confusion and there's so many options,

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:56.720
<v Speaker 5>whereas before when we were Yans, we didn't have this

0:09:56.840 --> 0:10:01.120
<v Speaker 5>many options. We just had like the at the party,

0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:03.719
<v Speaker 5>or like our friend's friend who said we should hook

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 5>up with this guy, or like a guy from high

0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:08.800
<v Speaker 5>school that we're still fucking around with, or maybe like

0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:12.600
<v Speaker 5>someone on my Space, or you know, like Instagram wasn't

0:10:12.800 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 5>even popping when we were I don't think I joined Instagram.

0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:17.320
<v Speaker 5>Maybe when I was like I think I joined Instagram

0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.679
<v Speaker 5>maybe around twenty four twenty five. I was late to

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.040
<v Speaker 5>the Instagram think too. I was like Vine, and I

0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:25.240
<v Speaker 5>wasn't finding niggas on Vine, so like it was like

0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 5>real life.

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:27.719
<v Speaker 3>I was at like the do over shout out to

0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:28.360
<v Speaker 3>the oh Man.

<v Speaker 4>take a.

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:35.400
<v Speaker 5>Moment for if anyone remembers the do Over. It was

0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:38.040
<v Speaker 5>a hot party and on the YouTube channels right now.

0:10:38.080 --> 0:10:39.720
<v Speaker 5>If you know the Duover, you're in Hollywood.

0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 4>In those times, it wasn't even in Hollywood.

0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:43.600
<v Speaker 3>The duo Over expanded. It was in Brooklyn, it was

0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:45.560
<v Speaker 3>in Seattle, but at first started here.

0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.680
<v Speaker 5>I think it actually started in like Seattle. It was

0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.640
<v Speaker 5>a day of part Portland or something was wherever a

0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:51.320
<v Speaker 5>didas is at.

0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.679
<v Speaker 3>That's where it started. Organ organ Yeah, it was a dud.

0:10:54.920 --> 0:10:56.880
<v Speaker 3>It was ad just wants to party, but whatever. Anyway,

0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.680
<v Speaker 3>that's where I would find people outside. I was outside.

0:10:59.880 --> 0:11:03.080
<v Speaker 3>I wasn't like on the internet, like scrolling through TikTok

0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:05.840
<v Speaker 3>and finding hot boys on TikTok and hoping that, like

0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:08.920
<v Speaker 3>they I'd catch their attention. I don't feel like I

0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:13.959
<v Speaker 3>ever was like so desperate like for love. I wasn't like,

0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:16.480
<v Speaker 3>oh I want a boyfriend so bad. I was just

0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:19.640
<v Speaker 3>a real yan out in the streets hoeing. But I

0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:21.520
<v Speaker 3>but I see, you know what it is. One thing

0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:24.199
<v Speaker 3>I'll say about like watching reality TV, especially from this

0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 3>like scope of like looking at people younger than me,

0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 3>it's women.

0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 4>Women are so deeply.

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:38.480
<v Speaker 3>Entangled with the need for like stability, romantically in relationship wise,

0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:40.040
<v Speaker 3>like even on dating shows.

0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:41.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm like, bitch, you're on a dating show.

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:44.760
<v Speaker 5>It's because of program I mean it's we're programmed from

0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:47.400
<v Speaker 5>a very young age that we're supposed to find love

0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:51.120
<v Speaker 5>and be married. I mean the marriage age just recently

0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:53.800
<v Speaker 5>went up, Like we'rees.

0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:54.800
<v Speaker 3>We're getting married at nineteen, and that was normal.

0:11:55.000 --> 0:11:57.560
<v Speaker 5>Like that was like you graduate high school and you

0:11:57.600 --> 0:11:59.720
<v Speaker 5>marry your call it your high school sweetheart. That was

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 5>like a normal thing. Like parents weren't looking down on that.

0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.720
<v Speaker 5>They were actually like happy that their kid was going

0:12:04.760 --> 0:12:06.839
<v Speaker 5>to go get taken care of, like their daughter because

0:12:07.080 --> 0:12:08.960
<v Speaker 5>she wasn't going to go to college because why would

0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:09.480
<v Speaker 5>she do that?

0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:12.000
<v Speaker 4>You know, Like no, our era was like go to college.

0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:12.120
<v Speaker 1>No.

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:15.040
<v Speaker 5>But I'm just saying like from the beginning like of time,

0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:17.200
<v Speaker 5>maybe at the beginning of time, but like as this

0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:21.240
<v Speaker 5>like American as the scope of marriage was formed, which

0:12:21.360 --> 0:12:23.560
<v Speaker 5>it was in different cultures, but I would say America,

0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:27.280
<v Speaker 5>like there's this like there's this trajectory of like what

0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.920
<v Speaker 5>happens to a woman. It's like the homemaker, and the

0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:31.240
<v Speaker 5>homemaker is very young.

0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 4>It's our biological clock too.

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:37.360
<v Speaker 3>It's all it's like biologically, we're supposed to make babies

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:39.720
<v Speaker 3>and we're at our prime. It's just because we get horny,

0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:42.000
<v Speaker 3>and then horny means it's time for babies. It's not

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:46.120
<v Speaker 3>like horny doesn't mean like, let's explore what pleasure is

0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:47.679
<v Speaker 3>for us, what our bodies can do.

0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:49.040
<v Speaker 4>You're getting a.

0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:51.360
<v Speaker 3>Horny because we're trying to our bodies are ready to

0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:52.360
<v Speaker 3>reproduce exactly.

0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:55.080
<v Speaker 5>But I'm just saying like because of that, that was

0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:58.720
<v Speaker 5>also I feel like you used as a way to like, Okay,

0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:00.839
<v Speaker 5>so now that these women our horny and want to

0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:04.040
<v Speaker 5>have sex, they shouldn't be going exploring that. They should

0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:06.160
<v Speaker 5>go be making babies, but their hob they won't.

0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:09.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, we see what happens when you don't put

0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:09.520
<v Speaker 3>them away.

0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:12.319
<v Speaker 4>They at crazy. They turned to good moms about choices.

0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:14.480
<v Speaker 3>And I, you know, I finally did catch up. Will

0:13:14.480 --> 0:13:15.320
<v Speaker 3>not really catch up.

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:18.200
<v Speaker 5>I watched two episodes of Love Island, and I don't

0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 5>know if you guys saw my if you go on

0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:23.200
<v Speaker 5>my Instagram, I posted a story today which she Kim

0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:27.040
<v Speaker 5>talking about the bombshells and.

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:32.000
<v Speaker 3>Pulling him aside for a chat. Because I watched that

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:32.440
<v Speaker 3>was quick.

0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:34.719
<v Speaker 4>You watched two episodes and now you're making.

0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:38.400
<v Speaker 5>I got enough information because because I went on. I went,

0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:40.880
<v Speaker 5>I talked about my like I was, had a watch

0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.440
<v Speaker 5>party basically on my stories, And ever since then, I've

0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:44.040
<v Speaker 5>been getting fed.

0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:45.679
<v Speaker 3>You had a watch party of your stories.

0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:48.840
<v Speaker 5>I've been getting fed so much Love Island content that

0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:50.640
<v Speaker 5>I don't really think I even need to watch anymore.

0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:50.920
<v Speaker 4>People.

0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:53.199
<v Speaker 3>Everyone's updated me on everything that's going to happen. Well,

0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:55.600
<v Speaker 3>the internet will tell you. Before I saw that Sierra

0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:57.760
<v Speaker 3>got kicked off, but I'm not there yet. She got

0:13:57.840 --> 0:14:00.959
<v Speaker 3>kicked off because she said something a racial slur.

0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:02.719
<v Speaker 4>I didn't really know that was a I mean, I

0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:03.720
<v Speaker 4>didn't really know that was racial.

0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.360
<v Speaker 3>People are so fucking scisage. Yeah, Like, I don't think

0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:11.120
<v Speaker 3>that was just and in my opinion, but Blue Centric

0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:13.160
<v Speaker 3>went on a deep dive literally I didn't even know

0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:14.840
<v Speaker 3>you can make reals this long, a five minute deep

0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:18.040
<v Speaker 3>dive that I watched last night that said that Sierra.

0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:19.040
<v Speaker 4>Plotted on the show.

0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:22.080
<v Speaker 3>Her friend, her best friend before she got on the show,

0:14:22.400 --> 0:14:25.160
<v Speaker 3>planned her a Love Island birthday party, and then she

0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:28.080
<v Speaker 3>started becoming friends with other Love Islanders, one of which

0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:30.880
<v Speaker 3>she was like a known racist who basically said Trayvon

0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:34.880
<v Speaker 3>Martin if this all of this wouldn't happen if he

0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:36.600
<v Speaker 3>was white, and she became friends with her and then

0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:38.960
<v Speaker 3>she got on Love Island. So basically they're saying she's

0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:42.760
<v Speaker 3>very calculated. She's friends with a previous Islander who was

0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 3>a known racist, and so obviously she's That's what Blue

0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:52.400
<v Speaker 3>Centric said and that she obviously did all of these

0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.680
<v Speaker 3>things to be like calculated and come on, Love Island,

0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:58.640
<v Speaker 3>I want to know where Okay, I'm gonna I'm not

0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:01.480
<v Speaker 3>gonna be transaged for one second are the Where are

0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:04.080
<v Speaker 3>the shows for the older bitches? Like what's the reality

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.640
<v Speaker 3>show for the thirty plus? I don't know.

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:09.800
<v Speaker 5>All I know is that when I watched the two

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.840
<v Speaker 5>episodes of Love Island, that confirmed to me that the

0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:17.920
<v Speaker 5>younger generation is not actually getting smarter. Maybe they're smarter

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.280
<v Speaker 5>and like just knowledge of what's happening in the world,

0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:23.920
<v Speaker 5>we're still very immature when it comes to love, when

0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:27.840
<v Speaker 5>it comes to their own personal value and why it

0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:28.960
<v Speaker 5>is they want any of it.

0:15:29.080 --> 0:15:33.200
<v Speaker 3>Emotional immaturity does not change because you know big words

0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:33.800
<v Speaker 3>from the Internet.

0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:38.440
<v Speaker 5>And also, like I'm positive that there was an.

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:42.200
<v Speaker 3>Sti STD outbreak on the show no, they're.

0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:45.640
<v Speaker 4>Only making out not I'm positive. I'm like, you have proof,

0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:46.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah you can.

0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 5>You can get an STI from making out if you

0:15:48.680 --> 0:15:49.440
<v Speaker 5>have an outbreak.

0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:52.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I mean like like herpies won. Yeah yeah, I

0:15:52.880 --> 0:15:55.440
<v Speaker 3>mean but no, I mean I'm assuming that they're probably

0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:56.240
<v Speaker 3>not going to be making out.

0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:57.800
<v Speaker 4>They have cold soares.

0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:00.600
<v Speaker 3>They are also with the culture.

0:16:00.800 --> 0:16:02.760
<v Speaker 4>There's like a lot you did in Orlando.

0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:05.800
<v Speaker 3>It's just gross. Honestly, it's really gross.

0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:08.120
<v Speaker 5>And I was like, I want to watch Love Island.

0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:10.600
<v Speaker 5>I was like, hell no, Like I left her watch

0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:12.360
<v Speaker 5>Love is Blind, and that was already pushing it because

0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:14.280
<v Speaker 5>then I had to fucking tell her like about sex

0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:17.240
<v Speaker 5>because Love is Blind, and I had to like have

0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:19.480
<v Speaker 5>the Birds in the Beast conversation because of the fucking

0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:21.960
<v Speaker 5>surrogate and all this other shit. So I was like, I'm,

0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:24.600
<v Speaker 5>first of all, this is crazy. This is definitely not

0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:26.280
<v Speaker 5>You're not going to think that you can just go

0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:29.560
<v Speaker 5>around making out with your friends, friends and boyfriends and.

0:16:29.560 --> 0:16:31.640
<v Speaker 3>Get blindfolded and duck dug goose bitch.

0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:34.760
<v Speaker 4>I mean, they're do it. The twenty year old you're

0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:35.920
<v Speaker 4>gonna do shit like that anyway.

0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:38.040
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I thought to myself, like when I was

0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:40.360
<v Speaker 5>in my early twenties. I probably would have like not

0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:42.880
<v Speaker 5>done Love Island. I would never have been videoed doing

0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:46.080
<v Speaker 5>this shit for my parents to see. But I probably

0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:47.680
<v Speaker 5>would have done some. I probably did do sometime shit

0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:48.840
<v Speaker 5>like this. I mean, we were all having sex and

0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:50.200
<v Speaker 5>closets together, you know what I mean.

0:16:50.240 --> 0:16:52.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so it's back in the movie theaters cars, But

0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:55.640
<v Speaker 3>but the thing was it was in private, like we

0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:58.760
<v Speaker 3>weren't putting this on fucking national TV never to be

0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 3>able to be unseen again. Soone can just go back

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:04.360
<v Speaker 3>and just find all the negative things I've said, pulled

0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:06.639
<v Speaker 3>me off the show, make it on the internet. I

0:17:06.680 --> 0:17:10.160
<v Speaker 3>also read or saw something that was interesting. I guess

0:17:10.160 --> 0:17:13.120
<v Speaker 3>because we're in production, I can all all I can

0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:17.159
<v Speaker 3>think about with reality shows is production, Like, so the product.

0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:19.800
<v Speaker 3>You can't just see the producers on set, like, let's

0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:22.880
<v Speaker 3>just do something crazy, let's just throw on ten new people. Yeah,

0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:24.520
<v Speaker 3>let's make a make out I know a great idea,

0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:25.240
<v Speaker 3>send them a text.

0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:25.919
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 3>Then I was like, they're got cheap because they didn't

0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:29.600
<v Speaker 3>even bring the host. And they stopped bringing the host

0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:31.360
<v Speaker 3>in because she probably her hair and makeup was too much,

0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 3>she was too old, she was too old to be

0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:36.680
<v Speaker 3>around them. I don't like I I I.

0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:40.040
<v Speaker 5>First of all, this show's making so much money, I know,

0:17:40.280 --> 0:17:42.520
<v Speaker 5>for such little reproduction.

0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:44.400
<v Speaker 3>I mean they're in Fiji though that's a huge house

0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:46.920
<v Speaker 3>or in Fiji. I also realized they're never eating They

0:17:46.920 --> 0:17:49.320
<v Speaker 3>only eat breakfast. Did you notice that they never eat lunch,

0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:51.480
<v Speaker 3>they never eat dinner. I'm like, are they getting fed? No,

0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:54.159
<v Speaker 3>because they're drunk. No, actually I also heard it. But

0:17:54.200 --> 0:17:56.399
<v Speaker 3>I also noticed too because I peeped. They're not as

0:17:56.520 --> 0:17:58.159
<v Speaker 3>drunk as you if you've seen on other shows. I

0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:02.560
<v Speaker 3>think they're being like they're kind of being somewhat monitoring there. No,

0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:05.520
<v Speaker 3>I can only have two drinks a day, wine or beer,

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:07.960
<v Speaker 3>not hard liquor. Oh that's I always thought of Maya

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:09.920
<v Speaker 3>I was drunk, But apparently she's not drunk it she's

0:18:09.960 --> 0:18:11.200
<v Speaker 3>just her. I don't even know who that is.

0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:14.359
<v Speaker 5>I haven't even gotten there, but I'm and I'm also

0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 5>not going to get there because after I watched the

0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:18.520
<v Speaker 5>second episode, I told myself there's no way that I

0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:19.760
<v Speaker 5>can continue watching this.

0:18:20.200 --> 0:18:22.440
<v Speaker 3>I will just do recap videos because.

0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:28.000
<v Speaker 5>I realized, like, my brain can't take this type of

0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:32.680
<v Speaker 5>like stimulation. It literally feels like my brain is melting.

0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:35.480
<v Speaker 5>It wasn't even enjoyable for me, Like I was just.

0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:37.040
<v Speaker 4>A sure a while we're like, what the fuck are

0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:37.640
<v Speaker 4>they talking about?

0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:39.720
<v Speaker 3>What they want? It's like the same, like they're crying

0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:42.520
<v Speaker 3>when people go home. They're making it like I didn't

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.240
<v Speaker 3>get that I'm a mommy thing. I had no idea

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:46.720
<v Speaker 3>that was from Love Island. Like you see this like

0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:49.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm I'm a mommy, You're a mommy, A mamasita, no,

0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:52.479
<v Speaker 3>a mommy of a I had no idea that this

0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:55.320
<v Speaker 3>was from Love Island. I told you by last week,

0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:59.159
<v Speaker 3>I'm a mommy like the whole No, I had no idea.

0:19:00.320 --> 0:19:01.400
<v Speaker 3>I had no idea where they came from.

0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:04.439
<v Speaker 5>But more so what I realized when I'm watching this

0:19:04.560 --> 0:19:06.960
<v Speaker 5>and just reality TV in general, And this is probably

0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:08.679
<v Speaker 5>why I don't really watch a lot of TV. I

0:19:08.760 --> 0:19:12.879
<v Speaker 5>like scripted shows and like TV and film, but I

0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:16.960
<v Speaker 5>feel like these things are literally designed to desensitize us

0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:19.200
<v Speaker 5>because there's so much chaos going on in the world,

0:19:19.280 --> 0:19:21.840
<v Speaker 5>so it's like we want something to like take the

0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:26.200
<v Speaker 5>edge off or like distract us, and so this shit

0:19:26.320 --> 0:19:30.000
<v Speaker 5>is working. This is literally numbing people, desensitizing people, and

0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:36.800
<v Speaker 5>I'm concerned about reality TV and their connection to all

0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:40.440
<v Speaker 5>the propaganda of the world and how it is melting

0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:43.200
<v Speaker 5>our brains and making us numb to everything.

0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:46.919
<v Speaker 3>It's actually like I agree, it's it's gonna make you

0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:48.240
<v Speaker 3>stupid if you watch it too much.

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:50.119
<v Speaker 5>It's like someone was like, I was like, give me

0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:51.960
<v Speaker 5>three to five hours to catch up. They're like, no,

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:53.879
<v Speaker 5>you need three to five days.

0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:55.200
<v Speaker 3>Are lost.

0:19:55.520 --> 0:19:57.919
<v Speaker 5>I watched one episode and I kept like, you know,

0:19:58.119 --> 0:20:00.720
<v Speaker 5>talking on stories, and I realized it's been two hours

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:01.760
<v Speaker 5>because I can pausing it.

0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:05.879
<v Speaker 3>They are so long, or and they're twenty eight episodes

0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:07.560
<v Speaker 3>and they're releasing them every single day.

0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:09.560
<v Speaker 4>I don't have time, and you can vote.

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:10.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't want to have the time.

0:20:11.880 --> 0:20:12.680
<v Speaker 4>So I took a.

0:20:12.640 --> 0:20:19.440
<v Speaker 3>Break from Love Island and Orlando turned on Naked and Afraid,

0:20:19.640 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 3>which has been on for like a decade. I've seen that.

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:24.000
<v Speaker 3>I guess I've seen it back in the day, but

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:26.120
<v Speaker 3>can you open this for me? But I haven't seen

0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:31.480
<v Speaker 3>it recently, and I'm just like, reality TV lets me

0:20:31.600 --> 0:20:35.159
<v Speaker 3>know that the majority of humanity is stupid, and I

0:20:35.200 --> 0:20:37.679
<v Speaker 3>think it's important to note that, like, don't assume that

0:20:37.720 --> 0:20:42.320
<v Speaker 3>most people have common sense. I mean Luckily for Naked

0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:44.720
<v Speaker 3>and Afraid, they'll do twenty one days in one episode,

0:20:44.760 --> 0:20:47.280
<v Speaker 3>so I'm not fucking watching a budget. I mean, like,

0:20:47.800 --> 0:20:51.359
<v Speaker 3>but it's so many people. I mean there's black people

0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:53.439
<v Speaker 3>on there too, which is obviously shocking for me, but

0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:58.399
<v Speaker 3>there's mostly Caucasian people. But to voluntarily go into the

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:04.080
<v Speaker 3>deep jungles of the Philippine, remove every single article of clothing,

0:21:04.440 --> 0:21:08.399
<v Speaker 3>have no supplies, and say I'm doing this for my daughter.

0:21:08.720 --> 0:21:11.760
<v Speaker 4>She's five. She's gonna know I'm so strong.

0:21:11.960 --> 0:21:14.639
<v Speaker 3>Like NIGGI, your daughter doesn't give a fuck if you

0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:16.760
<v Speaker 3>go on Naked Afraid and leave for three weeks so

0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:18.760
<v Speaker 3>you could prove to whoever the fuck that you can

0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:19.919
<v Speaker 3>survive all your money.

0:21:20.320 --> 0:21:21.399
<v Speaker 4>Now I look that up too.

0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:24.399
<v Speaker 3>They look at like compensation for missing work, like twenty grand.

0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:29.520
<v Speaker 3>They're eating snails. These two people ate a rat. They're

0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:34.760
<v Speaker 3>like getting attacked by aunts. This one girl, Erica, she

0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:39.840
<v Speaker 3>had no legs. She had a bilateral amputee. I thought

0:21:39.880 --> 0:21:41.840
<v Speaker 3>she was gonna be able to leave on her stilts.

0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:45.040
<v Speaker 3>The bitch took off her legs. She hopped out of

0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:48.320
<v Speaker 3>the truck and started crawling on her pussy through the jungle.

0:21:50.520 --> 0:21:53.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I got your calling, but why and then

0:21:53.800 --> 0:21:55.199
<v Speaker 3>I could just And then or Lando told me there

0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:58.040
<v Speaker 3>was an episode where they were starving because they starve

0:21:58.200 --> 0:22:02.480
<v Speaker 3>kid here in the air on Please, and the guy

0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:07.560
<v Speaker 3>found the production tent and stole food and was like

0:22:07.720 --> 0:22:09.119
<v Speaker 3>the girl was like on her last leg and he

0:22:09.160 --> 0:22:11.679
<v Speaker 3>was like, here, eat the food, and she's like where did.

0:22:11.560 --> 0:22:11.960
<v Speaker 4>You get this?

0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:13.960
<v Speaker 3>And that's again, that's all I keep thinking about, like

0:22:14.359 --> 0:22:16.120
<v Speaker 3>as me, if I signed up for this, even if

0:22:16.119 --> 0:22:19.439
<v Speaker 3>the maybe if the prize was a million dollars, I

0:22:19.720 --> 0:22:24.160
<v Speaker 3>voluntarily signed up to get naked and afraid and there's

0:22:24.200 --> 0:22:27.639
<v Speaker 3>probably like twenty motherfuckers and if within a fifteen minute

0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:30.880
<v Speaker 3>walk just eating and chilling with fucking shelter and I'm

0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:34.440
<v Speaker 3>just naked and starving because I'm stupid, Like it's one

0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:37.440
<v Speaker 3>thing if you have to survive in an apocalypt situation,

0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:40.480
<v Speaker 3>but if I just voluntarily, well maybe they want to

0:22:40.520 --> 0:22:42.760
<v Speaker 3>know if they can. I mean, shit, baby, go can

0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:46.440
<v Speaker 3>find thee want naked and Afraid. I'm gonna find them

0:22:46.480 --> 0:22:48.640
<v Speaker 3>because when the shit goes down, that's who I want.

0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:48.720
<v Speaker 1>To be with.

0:22:48.880 --> 0:22:49.160
<v Speaker 4>Baby.

0:22:49.200 --> 0:22:51.359
<v Speaker 3>They don't even look like they they don't even have

0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:52.959
<v Speaker 3>the skills. I don't even know why they're going there,

0:22:53.000 --> 0:22:55.080
<v Speaker 3>so I mean they know how to light fires and

0:22:55.080 --> 0:22:55.760
<v Speaker 3>bill shelters.

0:22:55.760 --> 0:22:57.440
<v Speaker 4>I've seen it, baby, I do too now because I

0:22:57.480 --> 0:22:58.320
<v Speaker 4>watch two episodes.

0:22:58.359 --> 0:23:00.960
<v Speaker 3>But it's it's hard. Ain't no. They all get a

0:23:00.960 --> 0:23:04.000
<v Speaker 3>fire starter in one pot. But I'm like, there's no

0:23:04.040 --> 0:23:06.000
<v Speaker 3>way in hell I'm going on a show to be

0:23:06.080 --> 0:23:08.960
<v Speaker 3>naked and afraid in the jungle. It's raining, it's cold,

0:23:09.480 --> 0:23:12.200
<v Speaker 3>no blankets, you know. And I watched a few days ago,

0:23:12.240 --> 0:23:15.960
<v Speaker 3>Tropic Thunder. I made Iri watch Tropic Thunder because I

0:23:16.000 --> 0:23:18.000
<v Speaker 3>was just like, I want to watch something stupid but

0:23:18.080 --> 0:23:21.880
<v Speaker 3>not fucking Love Island. And so it was either Talladiga Knights,

0:23:21.880 --> 0:23:23.480
<v Speaker 3>I thought of you, and we started watching it, but

0:23:23.520 --> 0:23:26.280
<v Speaker 3>she wasn't into it, and so we stopped watching it.

0:23:27.000 --> 0:23:28.880
<v Speaker 4>You know, Erica has never seen Telldiga Knights.

0:23:28.920 --> 0:23:30.919
<v Speaker 3>I watched it because I thought I told. I told she.

0:23:31.160 --> 0:23:32.679
<v Speaker 3>I was like, this is the Cumula's favorite movie. Let

0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:34.679
<v Speaker 3>me let me watch it so I get her fucking jokes.

0:23:35.359 --> 0:23:37.920
<v Speaker 4>I kepn't even missing my jokes for like almost ten years.

0:23:38.160 --> 0:23:41.280
<v Speaker 5>And so we started watching maybe like twenty five minutes

0:23:41.320 --> 0:23:43.720
<v Speaker 5>of it, and then Iri was like hmm hm, and

0:23:43.760 --> 0:23:46.240
<v Speaker 5>I was like, all right, fine, so we started watching it.

0:23:46.240 --> 0:23:48.600
<v Speaker 5>Then we started watching Tropic Thunder, and I've I'm like

0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:50.160
<v Speaker 5>trying to explain what's going on, Like.

0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 3>He's not black, but he's white. That's Tony Stark. She's like,

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:55.439
<v Speaker 3>who's Tony Stark. I'm like Marvel.

0:23:55.480 --> 0:23:56.000
<v Speaker 4>She's like, oh, I.

0:23:56.000 --> 0:23:58.600
<v Speaker 5>Hate Marvel, and I'm like, okay, just forget about Marvel. This

0:23:58.760 --> 0:24:01.560
<v Speaker 5>is a white man. He's like, now he's Asian. Now

0:24:01.600 --> 0:24:03.679
<v Speaker 5>he's Asians. But he was black. I'm like, I know,

0:24:03.760 --> 0:24:06.439
<v Speaker 5>but now he's an Asian, he's an act. So it

0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:08.760
<v Speaker 5>was a lot of communication, but she finally got it

0:24:08.800 --> 0:24:13.000
<v Speaker 5>and understand Yeah, And then I almost forgot how fucking

0:24:13.160 --> 0:24:16.879
<v Speaker 5>funny Tom Cruise was of that movie, because Tom Cruise

0:24:16.960 --> 0:24:18.840
<v Speaker 5>is so scary to me now because he's, you know,

0:24:18.880 --> 0:24:20.800
<v Speaker 5>such a deep in the scientology that every time I

0:24:20.840 --> 0:24:22.960
<v Speaker 5>see him, I'm like, what a fucking weirdo. But then

0:24:23.080 --> 0:24:25.159
<v Speaker 5>on the movie, like he was fucking hilarious. They had

0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:28.159
<v Speaker 5>prosthetics on his hands, like his hands were so big

0:24:28.240 --> 0:24:31.359
<v Speaker 5>and hairy, and his chest was so hairy.

0:24:31.680 --> 0:24:33.800
<v Speaker 3>It was it was, you know, And then I thought, too,

0:24:34.720 --> 0:24:36.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if this movie can come out now.

0:24:36.280 --> 0:24:39.480
<v Speaker 3>People are so fucking sensitive, Like, I can't say, how

0:24:39.480 --> 0:24:42.280
<v Speaker 3>could this movie have come out? They were talking about retard.

0:24:42.840 --> 0:24:44.360
<v Speaker 4>I watched old movies they were.

0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:47.480
<v Speaker 6>Retired, had this movie where he played like like metal

0:24:48.480 --> 0:24:52.159
<v Speaker 6>and they kept calling him retarded, and I was like, damn,

0:24:52.359 --> 0:24:56.080
<v Speaker 6>the days of just like Balls to the Wall, Calmedy,

0:24:56.119 --> 0:24:56.840
<v Speaker 6>You're fucking done.

0:24:56.840 --> 0:25:01.080
<v Speaker 3>You'll get canceled like here, yeah, I'm probably gonna get

0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:06.119
<v Speaker 3>canceled for saying I'm trans age. I just yeah, I

0:25:06.200 --> 0:25:09.679
<v Speaker 3>mean people need to have a little bit tougher skin. Anyway,

0:25:09.720 --> 0:25:11.920
<v Speaker 3>I highly recommend going back into the vault and watching

0:25:11.960 --> 0:25:14.200
<v Speaker 3>Traffic Thunder. It's a classic. It's very funny.

0:25:14.359 --> 0:25:16.399
<v Speaker 4>Can you please finish watching Child digod nights?

0:25:16.480 --> 0:25:16.760
<v Speaker 3>I will.

0:25:16.800 --> 0:25:19.200
<v Speaker 5>I have to watch it without you, without without irin.

0:25:19.320 --> 0:25:22.000
<v Speaker 5>The first it was good, Yeah, it was funny. I

0:25:22.000 --> 0:25:24.199

<v Speaker 5>Will Ferrell, Ben Stiller, Adam Sandler, like they all.

0:25:31.840 --> 0:25:32.879
<v Speaker 3>Hire their friends.

0:25:32.920 --> 0:25:36.360
<v Speaker 5>Like Adam Sandler's wife is in a lot of his movies,

0:25:36.640 --> 0:25:39.960
<v Speaker 5>just like jeded Appatose. Adam Sandler has a wife, And

0:25:40.000 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 5>I'm sorry that Adam Samily does have a wife. I

0:25:42.000 --> 0:25:47.440
<v Speaker 5>met ben Stiller, and yeah, I remember, like Marsha, Marsha, Marsha,

0:25:47.480 --> 0:25:51.200
<v Speaker 5>I remember the Brady Bench, Marcia, like the new Brady Bench. Yeah,

0:25:51.240 --> 0:25:55.080
<v Speaker 5>Marcia is Adam ben Stiller's wife.

0:25:55.440 --> 0:25:56.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh okay, I didn't know that.

0:25:56.920 --> 0:25:57.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, okay.

0:25:58.040 --> 0:26:01.120
<v Speaker 5>So I just love how they they make each other

0:26:01.720 --> 0:26:04.200
<v Speaker 5>rich together, and that's what I wanted to casting each

0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:04.679
<v Speaker 5>other in it.

0:26:04.760 --> 0:26:07.040
<v Speaker 3>And it's fucking hilarious, and they're like funny movies, and

0:26:07.119 --> 0:26:09.640
<v Speaker 3>I always think about that, like even couples retreat the movie.

0:26:09.680 --> 0:26:11.280
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, they just got all their homies to go

0:26:11.280 --> 0:26:13.119
<v Speaker 3>out of town and make a movie and got a budget,

0:26:13.280 --> 0:26:15.600
<v Speaker 3>and I aspire for this. I just want to make

0:26:15.600 --> 0:26:18.200
<v Speaker 3>a bunch of funny movies, hang out with my friends

0:26:18.320 --> 0:26:21.040
<v Speaker 3>and make millions of dollars and laugh and not be

0:26:21.119 --> 0:26:24.920
<v Speaker 3>too deep and just be able to do whatever you want. Yeah,

0:26:24.960 --> 0:26:31.840
<v Speaker 3>it was good. I hope you hear my christ baby Jesus. Yeah.

0:26:31.880 --> 0:26:35.679
<v Speaker 3>So that's how I've been enjoying my summer, getting slower,

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:38.040
<v Speaker 3>making my brain soup by watching reality TV.

0:26:38.240 --> 0:26:40.280
<v Speaker 5>No, I haven't been doing that. I'm not doing that.

0:26:40.320 --> 0:26:42.840
<v Speaker 5>I'm not participating in this reality TV thing. I think

0:26:42.920 --> 0:26:45.359
<v Speaker 5>like I went through a really heavy reality season in

0:26:45.400 --> 0:26:46.919
<v Speaker 5>my life where I watched a lot of love and

0:26:46.960 --> 0:26:51.199
<v Speaker 5>hip hop and housewives, and I think I just like

0:26:51.359 --> 0:26:53.560
<v Speaker 5>overdid it then that I.

0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:54.680
<v Speaker 3>Just I just can't do it.

0:26:54.800 --> 0:26:55.359
<v Speaker 4>I don't love it.

0:26:55.359 --> 0:26:57.440
<v Speaker 3>But even like the funny ones like love like Love

0:26:57.480 --> 0:26:58.560
<v Speaker 3>after lock Up, like.

0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:02.880
<v Speaker 5>But then I like, I fall off because it's just

0:27:03.680 --> 0:27:05.359
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, I can't.

0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:09.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, TV is definitely a distraction. I do enjoy

0:27:09.040 --> 0:27:13.000
<v Speaker 3>reality TV shows that are not exploiting black people as much.

0:27:13.240 --> 0:27:15.760
<v Speaker 3>Like sometimes I like I was I was getting my

0:27:15.760 --> 0:27:19.240
<v Speaker 3>hair braided and the raider's daughter came and she was

0:27:19.280 --> 0:27:22.040
<v Speaker 3>like filling me in on Love Island because she's fucking fifteen,

0:27:22.560 --> 0:27:25.400
<v Speaker 3>and she was saying, like, oh, you don't watch baddies.

0:27:25.520 --> 0:27:28.640
<v Speaker 3>I was like, that's where I draw the line. I

0:27:28.680 --> 0:27:31.159
<v Speaker 3>was like, no, I do not want to see a

0:27:31.160 --> 0:27:32.880
<v Speaker 3>bunch of black women beat each other up and call

0:27:32.920 --> 0:27:36.480
<v Speaker 3>each other names. Absolutely not. I'm like being righteous. She's like, bitch,

0:27:36.520 --> 0:27:40.480
<v Speaker 3>we're watching Love Island for ten hours. But I just yeah,

0:27:40.800 --> 0:27:43.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm I don't want to watch zeus, but a bunch

0:27:43.800 --> 0:27:46.800
<v Speaker 3>of like young, stupid twenty year olds maybe, and then

0:27:46.840 --> 0:27:48.760
<v Speaker 3>I can. It kind of gives me insight to what

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:51.879
<v Speaker 3>we have to look forward to having kids, you know, Like, so,

0:27:51.960 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 3>what what do you mean? I'm just saying they're gonna

0:27:54.280 --> 0:27:56.720
<v Speaker 3>be young and dumb and twenty something and like, and

0:27:56.720 --> 0:27:58.120
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna have to be like, hey, we're not that

0:27:58.160 --> 0:28:02.119
<v Speaker 3>fucking stupid. No, I've already told Lunash she's forbidden from

0:28:02.200 --> 0:28:05.119
<v Speaker 3>going on Love Island or naked and afraid.

0:28:05.880 --> 0:28:08.119
<v Speaker 5>I will disown you. I will cut off all funds.

0:28:08.359 --> 0:28:11.560
<v Speaker 5>Nothing will be available to you. Nothing, you hear me, Iri,

0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:14.399
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely fucking nothing nothing.

0:28:14.920 --> 0:28:16.040
<v Speaker 4>It's really you know what I think.

0:28:16.359 --> 0:28:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Mostly I'm realizing, I mean, watching stupid ass shows and

0:28:20.200 --> 0:28:23.520
<v Speaker 3>observing how stupid twenty something years old can be, and

0:28:23.600 --> 0:28:26.880
<v Speaker 3>like just the growth and the maturity that happens between

0:28:26.960 --> 0:28:34.600
<v Speaker 3>like twenty nine and forty is like I time is

0:28:34.640 --> 0:28:40.960
<v Speaker 3>going by so fast, and like faster than I don't know,

0:28:41.080 --> 0:28:45.960
<v Speaker 3>faster than I can like accept this last ten years

0:28:46.040 --> 0:28:48.520
<v Speaker 3>is eight years of good moms. How fast has it

0:28:48.560 --> 0:28:52.560
<v Speaker 3>gone by? I feel like I've blinked, and like every

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:54.760
<v Speaker 3>time I think about it, I have to smoke. That's

0:28:54.760 --> 0:28:58.120
<v Speaker 3>why I'm gonna light this blackwood right now, because what

0:28:58.160 --> 0:29:00.520
<v Speaker 3>the fuck? No?

0:29:00.760 --> 0:29:02.880
<v Speaker 5>Time as is going by and I think I think

0:29:02.960 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 5>especially for like maybe not I want to say especially,

0:29:05.320 --> 0:29:07.120
<v Speaker 5>but I think for us because we have.

0:29:09.240 --> 0:29:12.400
<v Speaker 3>Time markers. I mean essentially everybody does now on their phone.

0:29:12.440 --> 0:29:14.120
<v Speaker 5>The phone will fucking trigger the fuck out of you

0:29:14.160 --> 0:29:16.440
<v Speaker 5>and remind you where you were four years ago on

0:29:16.480 --> 0:29:22.239
<v Speaker 5>this day. But I think just everyone having at like

0:29:22.440 --> 0:29:26.960
<v Speaker 5>easily accessible moments to really see the moments in their

0:29:27.000 --> 0:29:31.680
<v Speaker 5>life puts this like a little bit of anxiety, a

0:29:31.680 --> 0:29:33.760
<v Speaker 5>little bit of fear, but also like I think that's

0:29:33.800 --> 0:29:37.080
<v Speaker 5>also a gift too. It's like an invitation for you

0:29:37.160 --> 0:29:40.480
<v Speaker 5>to like really appreciate the time and appreciate the moment.

0:29:41.000 --> 0:29:43.640
<v Speaker 5>And like, I know, for me, like in this season

0:29:43.680 --> 0:29:47.680
<v Speaker 5>of my life, I've been, you know I've been. I think,

0:29:47.720 --> 0:29:50.360
<v Speaker 5>like in my early thirties and starting good Moms, like

0:29:50.400 --> 0:29:54.080
<v Speaker 5>I really needed to reclaim myself and like who I

0:29:54.200 --> 0:29:57.720
<v Speaker 5>was outside of motherhood and what I wanted.

0:29:57.480 --> 0:30:00.080
<v Speaker 3>To do, Who was Erica? What made me happy?

0:30:00.160 --> 0:30:03.040
<v Speaker 5>Because I had been in a relationship for so long

0:30:03.080 --> 0:30:05.240
<v Speaker 5>and honestly, like even throughout my twenties, to think about

0:30:05.240 --> 0:30:09.360
<v Speaker 5>my twenties, like I had moments of like hot girls, subberbness,

0:30:09.520 --> 0:30:11.360
<v Speaker 5>but like I was in a relationship all the time,

0:30:11.480 --> 0:30:13.520
<v Speaker 5>Like I was always found myself in a relationship, and

0:30:13.520 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 5>it wasn't because I was like seeking relationships. Yes, I

0:30:15.680 --> 0:30:17.880
<v Speaker 5>loved love, but like I would just fall into one.

0:30:18.240 --> 0:30:21.880
<v Speaker 5>So I think, like being in the beginning of Good Moms,

0:30:21.920 --> 0:30:25.240
<v Speaker 5>like that was my opportunity and my time to like

0:30:25.680 --> 0:30:30.520
<v Speaker 5>really understand who I wanted to identify as as a mother,

0:30:30.600 --> 0:30:33.320
<v Speaker 5>and I like Good Moms gave me that gift. And

0:30:33.360 --> 0:30:36.920
<v Speaker 5>I think that now I feel like I'm in a

0:30:36.960 --> 0:30:40.200
<v Speaker 5>season of like really enjoying not that I didn't enjoy

0:30:40.240 --> 0:30:42.760
<v Speaker 5>motherhood then, but like really enjoying this season of motherhood,

0:30:42.800 --> 0:30:44.960
<v Speaker 5>really enjoying this season of my daughter's life and wanting

0:30:45.000 --> 0:30:47.440
<v Speaker 5>to spend a lot of time with her because I

0:30:47.520 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 5>do know that it's going fast, because I do see

0:30:49.640 --> 0:30:51.400
<v Speaker 5>that it's going fast, and I do see that like

0:30:51.560 --> 0:30:55.360
<v Speaker 5>I've missed opportunities. I've missed opportunities pouring into myself because

0:30:55.400 --> 0:30:59.000
<v Speaker 5>it was necessary. But then there's also the guilt, and

0:30:59.040 --> 0:31:00.880
<v Speaker 5>the truth of the matter is that like there were

0:31:00.880 --> 0:31:03.360
<v Speaker 5>times where I wasn't there, you know, A, because I

0:31:03.400 --> 0:31:05.880
<v Speaker 5>was fulfilling my dreams. B because I was being selfish

0:31:05.880 --> 0:31:10.800
<v Speaker 5>because I needed to be. And now I feel like

0:31:11.520 --> 0:31:15.760
<v Speaker 5>I don't know I just I think this specifically this

0:31:15.800 --> 0:31:20.520
<v Speaker 5>summer and maybe this year has been really revealing to

0:31:20.560 --> 0:31:24.479
<v Speaker 5>me as to like how I want to spend like

0:31:24.680 --> 0:31:28.240
<v Speaker 5>the next I won't even say eight years of motherhood

0:31:28.280 --> 0:31:31.000
<v Speaker 5>because when she's eight seventeen, like she won't be at

0:31:31.000 --> 0:31:35.120
<v Speaker 5>the house or yeah, it's really like five yeah, five

0:31:35.200 --> 0:31:37.600
<v Speaker 5>to six, Like how what kind of mom do I

0:31:37.640 --> 0:31:40.680
<v Speaker 5>want to be? Like how am I building this relationship

0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:41.120
<v Speaker 5>with her?

0:31:41.640 --> 0:31:45.960
<v Speaker 3>Like how is she how is she fucking doing? Is

0:31:45.960 --> 0:31:46.440
<v Speaker 3>she okay?

0:31:46.560 --> 0:31:49.600
<v Speaker 5>Like what are her relationships like really investing time into?

0:31:49.720 --> 0:31:51.000
<v Speaker 5>Like what are the things do you want to be

0:31:51.040 --> 0:31:54.280
<v Speaker 5>good at the other day she we went bike riding

0:31:54.360 --> 0:31:55.360
<v Speaker 5>last night and.

0:31:57.920 --> 0:32:00.760
<v Speaker 3>The later and she was like, you know what I

0:32:00.800 --> 0:32:02.520
<v Speaker 3>used to do when I was eight? And I was

0:32:02.560 --> 0:32:05.360
<v Speaker 3>like today, like two years ago, year and a half.

0:32:07.440 --> 0:32:10.800
<v Speaker 3>She was like, sometimes I used to like go to

0:32:10.840 --> 0:32:13.520
<v Speaker 3>restaurants and I'm like, sometimes like with who me?

0:32:13.680 --> 0:32:15.160
<v Speaker 4>Like right?

0:32:17.320 --> 0:32:20.320
<v Speaker 5>And I would sing kind of loud because I hoped

0:32:20.320 --> 0:32:22.680
<v Speaker 5>like a music producer would hear me and then like

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:23.640
<v Speaker 5>maybe they'd signed me.

0:32:24.400 --> 0:32:27.640
<v Speaker 3>And I was like really not kind of loud.

0:32:29.480 --> 0:32:30.840
<v Speaker 5>And She's like and I was like, so do you

0:32:31.080 --> 0:32:33.000
<v Speaker 5>want to be you want to sing? And then she

0:32:33.120 --> 0:32:35.120
<v Speaker 5>was like no, and I could see her like like no,

0:32:35.200 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 5>like she was afraid, Like I was gonna like judge her. No,

0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:39.320
<v Speaker 5>not not even judge her, like for sort of like

0:32:39.320 --> 0:32:41.600
<v Speaker 5>tried it, you know, like what do you want to

0:32:41.640 --> 0:32:41.840
<v Speaker 5>do it?

0:32:41.840 --> 0:32:42.440
<v Speaker 3>Like, let's do it.

0:32:43.200 --> 0:32:44.840
<v Speaker 5>And I was like, well, I ree like if you

0:32:44.880 --> 0:32:46.680
<v Speaker 5>ever wanted to sing, like you know, you have like

0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:49.400
<v Speaker 5>a dad that could like help you with that, like

0:32:49.480 --> 0:32:53.520
<v Speaker 5>he could produce a song for you, like whatever needed

0:32:53.520 --> 0:32:53.920
<v Speaker 5>to happen.

0:32:53.960 --> 0:32:55.480
<v Speaker 3>If you wanted to try it, we could do that.

0:32:55.600 --> 0:32:57.920
<v Speaker 3>She's like no, No. I was like okay, So we

0:32:58.000 --> 0:33:00.000
<v Speaker 3>got to we rode our bikes this restaurant near my house.

0:33:02.720 --> 0:33:06.480
<v Speaker 4>Do shit, be careful back and backward.

0:33:07.280 --> 0:33:12.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh, take a shout out to the backwoods, because that's

0:33:12.680 --> 0:33:13.360
<v Speaker 3>all I really need.

0:33:13.560 --> 0:33:13.920
<v Speaker 4>God damn.

0:33:16.520 --> 0:33:20.520
<v Speaker 5>And I think like I was just like trying to

0:33:20.560 --> 0:33:23.640
<v Speaker 5>casually bring it back up again because even for me,

0:33:23.720 --> 0:33:25.720
<v Speaker 5>like I loved, I love music, I know how to record.

0:33:25.760 --> 0:33:27.200
<v Speaker 5>The whole reason, like even I knew how to edit

0:33:27.200 --> 0:33:29.640
<v Speaker 5>our podcast was because I had made tons and tons

0:33:29.680 --> 0:33:31.240
<v Speaker 5>of music before and I knew how to use garage

0:33:31.280 --> 0:33:34.160
<v Speaker 5>band and blah blah blah, and like me and Chaquem,

0:33:34.280 --> 0:33:37.800
<v Speaker 5>like will he'll like fuck around and like like we'll

0:33:38.600 --> 0:33:41.280
<v Speaker 5>uh write, well, he'll write, and then I'll sing some

0:33:41.320 --> 0:33:43.440
<v Speaker 5>songs with him, and not because I want to be

0:33:43.520 --> 0:33:45.440
<v Speaker 5>a singer, but just because that's something that I really

0:33:45.520 --> 0:33:48.800
<v Speaker 5>genuinely loved and it like brought me joy, and so

0:33:48.880 --> 0:33:50.520
<v Speaker 5>I was like, when we got to dinner, I was like,

0:33:50.560 --> 0:33:52.400
<v Speaker 5>why don't we just I was like, you know what.

0:33:52.440 --> 0:33:54.240
<v Speaker 5>I looked at my notes and I found a song

0:33:54.240 --> 0:33:55.600
<v Speaker 5>that we wrote and we had written me and I

0:33:55.720 --> 0:33:58.640
<v Speaker 5>had written a song like twenty twenty one, and she

0:33:58.720 --> 0:34:00.720
<v Speaker 5>was like, let me hear it because my notes and

0:34:00.800 --> 0:34:03.239
<v Speaker 5>it was like the silly little song and she's like

0:34:03.360 --> 0:34:04.680
<v Speaker 5>and I was like do you like it?

0:34:04.760 --> 0:34:05.840
<v Speaker 3>And she's like it's cool?

0:34:05.960 --> 0:34:08.040
<v Speaker 5>And I was like, what if we like recorded it

0:34:08.200 --> 0:34:10.320
<v Speaker 5>and just like messed around, because like I want to

0:34:10.320 --> 0:34:12.279
<v Speaker 5>mess around. I miss me making music and maybe we

0:34:12.280 --> 0:34:14.759
<v Speaker 5>can make music together. And she was like Okay, She's like,

0:34:14.760 --> 0:34:16.640
<v Speaker 5>well then let's write it right now. And so we

0:34:16.680 --> 0:34:18.320
<v Speaker 5>like wrote like a little song last night at the

0:34:18.360 --> 0:34:22.840
<v Speaker 5>dinner table. And it's just like being able to like

0:34:22.880 --> 0:34:25.399
<v Speaker 5>really tap into like the things that she really wants

0:34:25.440 --> 0:34:28.000
<v Speaker 5>to do, even though I know there's fear behind it

0:34:28.440 --> 0:34:32.080
<v Speaker 5>and I feel like that's like my biggest joy right

0:34:32.120 --> 0:34:33.920
<v Speaker 5>now is like trying to figure out like what it

0:34:33.960 --> 0:34:35.680
<v Speaker 5>is that she wants to be good at, because at ten,

0:34:35.840 --> 0:34:39.719
<v Speaker 5>like I was way deep into sports already, I was

0:34:39.800 --> 0:34:41.400
<v Speaker 5>like I knew I wanted to be an actor.

0:34:41.840 --> 0:34:43.759
<v Speaker 3>I was already I had been auditioning since I was

0:34:43.800 --> 0:34:44.240
<v Speaker 3>like eight.

0:34:44.880 --> 0:34:47.600
<v Speaker 5>And for her, like, I've kind of like let it

0:34:47.640 --> 0:34:50.319
<v Speaker 5>be free flowing, and I want to keep it sort

0:34:50.360 --> 0:34:51.839
<v Speaker 5>of that way, but there is like a level of

0:34:51.840 --> 0:34:56.200
<v Speaker 5>discipline that I think is important right now in her

0:34:56.239 --> 0:34:58.239
<v Speaker 5>life that's going to set her up for the rest

0:34:58.280 --> 0:34:58.839
<v Speaker 5>of her life.

0:34:59.360 --> 0:35:01.480
<v Speaker 3>And I don't want to be too free flowing anymore.

0:35:01.520 --> 0:35:03.680
<v Speaker 5>I want to like really try to figure out, like, Okay,

0:35:03.760 --> 0:35:06.319
<v Speaker 5>if we're going to do something, let's do it. So

0:35:06.480 --> 0:35:08.640
<v Speaker 5>it's been like I don't know, it's it's been fun

0:35:08.760 --> 0:35:11.960
<v Speaker 5>figuring that out over the last month or so. I

0:35:12.000 --> 0:35:14.439
<v Speaker 5>think that I think we talked about this a couple

0:35:14.560 --> 0:35:19.040
<v Speaker 5>of weeks ago, but I agree, like I think that

0:35:19.239 --> 0:35:23.400
<v Speaker 5>there when you're your kid gets around this age and

0:35:23.680 --> 0:35:27.360
<v Speaker 5>they can form their own ideas and opinions, and like

0:35:27.400 --> 0:35:29.120
<v Speaker 5>you could talk to them like we're talking to each other,

0:35:29.120 --> 0:35:31.280
<v Speaker 5>there's a different like oh shit, this happened so quickly.

0:35:31.680 --> 0:35:34.240
<v Speaker 5>And also I see that with Luna to like the fear,

0:35:34.440 --> 0:35:37.440
<v Speaker 5>and I'm like, I'm I'm scary too, Like even when

0:35:37.480 --> 0:35:39.440
<v Speaker 5>we do shows and stuff, I get so nervous, but

0:35:39.520 --> 0:35:41.040
<v Speaker 5>I do it anyway, like that's my thing, Like I

0:35:41.040 --> 0:35:42.000
<v Speaker 5>don't care how scared I am.

0:35:42.040 --> 0:35:44.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna do it anyway. But try to instill that

0:35:44.280 --> 0:35:48.160
<v Speaker 3>in her. And also like I realize, like I get

0:35:48.200 --> 0:35:50.799
<v Speaker 3>anxiety sometimes thinking like oh my god, you're not a

0:35:50.880 --> 0:35:53.960
<v Speaker 3>master pianoist or anything like right now, or I haven't,

0:35:54.000 --> 0:35:56.480
<v Speaker 3>like have I not made you disciplined enough so that

0:35:56.560 --> 0:35:59.239
<v Speaker 3>you have something like what Macy Gray told us, make

0:35:59.280 --> 0:36:01.080
<v Speaker 3>sure your kid has something that they're good at, which

0:36:01.120 --> 0:36:02.479
<v Speaker 3>I agree.

0:36:03.120 --> 0:36:04.640
<v Speaker 4>I also feel like like.

0:36:04.560 --> 0:36:06.960
<v Speaker 3>For us, for instance, when we created Good Moms, it

0:36:07.040 --> 0:36:09.320
<v Speaker 3>wasn't with all of this like very like we're like

0:36:09.320 --> 0:36:11.359
<v Speaker 3>we're going to be rich. We're just like doing something

0:36:11.360 --> 0:36:13.719
<v Speaker 3>because we enjoyed it, trying something new. And I feel

0:36:13.719 --> 0:36:15.440
<v Speaker 3>like there's a point in adulthood where we kind of

0:36:15.600 --> 0:36:19.160
<v Speaker 3>stop doing that because the reality of bills and responsibility

0:36:19.320 --> 0:36:22.359
<v Speaker 3>dawns on us. And like I would I want to

0:36:22.440 --> 0:36:27.160
<v Speaker 3>be more playful in my creativity because growing up and

0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:28.799
<v Speaker 3>as a teenager, like I used to love to write,

0:36:28.840 --> 0:36:31.560
<v Speaker 3>used to love to write poetry, scrap book, like just

0:36:31.600 --> 0:36:34.000
<v Speaker 3>trying paint, like those are all things that I love

0:36:34.040 --> 0:36:36.279
<v Speaker 3>to do. But as you get older, you'd make less

0:36:36.280 --> 0:36:37.880
<v Speaker 3>time for them because it's like, what's going to pay

0:36:37.920 --> 0:36:41.200
<v Speaker 3>the bills? And it's like I think that you're calling

0:36:41.280 --> 0:36:43.759
<v Speaker 3>and you're discipline and all those things come when you're

0:36:43.840 --> 0:36:46.480
<v Speaker 3>something that you really like, you just start to really like.

0:36:46.560 --> 0:36:49.359
<v Speaker 3>But like like you said, bringing them in, introducing them

0:36:49.360 --> 0:36:53.120
<v Speaker 3>to things free flowing and letting it like casually pushing

0:36:53.120 --> 0:36:54.960
<v Speaker 3>them to get it disciplined so they get real in it.

0:36:55.280 --> 0:36:58.080
<v Speaker 3>But even with us, like I'm like, we have a

0:36:58.080 --> 0:37:00.279
<v Speaker 3>fucking production company, Like let's just walk around to make

0:37:00.280 --> 0:37:00.560
<v Speaker 3>a movie.

0:37:00.600 --> 0:37:02.440
<v Speaker 4>Let's see what happens. Like look at even Issa Ray.

0:37:02.520 --> 0:37:04.319
<v Speaker 3>She put on I mean, I'm sure was serious, but

0:37:04.440 --> 0:37:06.759
<v Speaker 3>like a series on the internet and this she's a

0:37:06.800 --> 0:37:09.560
<v Speaker 3>fucking mogul. So it's just like I think sometimes we

0:37:09.600 --> 0:37:12.200
<v Speaker 3>put we apply all this pressure to things as adults

0:37:12.480 --> 0:37:14.799
<v Speaker 3>that we need to like apply the childhood lens to

0:37:15.360 --> 0:37:16.680
<v Speaker 3>instead of being so.

0:37:18.360 --> 0:37:19.680
<v Speaker 4>Like this is this is it?

0:37:19.760 --> 0:37:21.560
<v Speaker 3>You know what I mean? And I do I want

0:37:21.600 --> 0:37:25.640
<v Speaker 3>I've thought about this recently, like the nostalgia of like

0:37:25.680 --> 0:37:29.320
<v Speaker 3>writing poetry or making like scrap books with poetry and

0:37:29.360 --> 0:37:31.839
<v Speaker 3>them and things like I wouldn't necessarily do that now

0:37:31.880 --> 0:37:33.880
<v Speaker 3>because why. But it's like why do I need a

0:37:33.920 --> 0:37:36.920
<v Speaker 3>why and just and other than the point of just

0:37:36.960 --> 0:37:40.120
<v Speaker 3>to create, you know. And I'm like I'm trying to, yes,

0:37:40.440 --> 0:37:43.120
<v Speaker 3>be more present with Luna and like what she went

0:37:43.239 --> 0:37:47.480
<v Speaker 3>like developing those skills, and also just like I'm recognizing

0:37:47.520 --> 0:37:51.080
<v Speaker 3>like life is zooming by life is short, Like these

0:37:51.120 --> 0:37:54.719
<v Speaker 3>moments are fleeting and it's scary, you know. I just

0:37:54.840 --> 0:37:59.840
<v Speaker 3>was with my friend and he has a friend, his neighbor.

0:38:00.520 --> 0:38:01.400
<v Speaker 4>He called me at the morning.

0:38:01.440 --> 0:38:04.440
<v Speaker 3>He was like, you know, so and so killed themselves

0:38:04.760 --> 0:38:06.640
<v Speaker 3>and I was just like I just saw this person

0:38:06.800 --> 0:38:10.440
<v Speaker 3>at his house and it was so interesting, Like I

0:38:10.520 --> 0:38:13.319
<v Speaker 3>had a bad feeling then, like he was arguing, he

0:38:13.400 --> 0:38:15.000
<v Speaker 3>was crying, and I just like was like, you know,

0:38:15.160 --> 0:38:17.279
<v Speaker 3>in passing. But when he called me, I was like,

0:38:17.320 --> 0:38:20.319
<v Speaker 3>oh my god, Like somebody, like even someone who I'm

0:38:20.360 --> 0:38:22.919
<v Speaker 3>not super close with but have been around, was here

0:38:23.239 --> 0:38:25.680
<v Speaker 3>like a last week and then one day or he's not,

0:38:26.360 --> 0:38:30.640
<v Speaker 3>and I was just like, you never know what someone's

0:38:30.680 --> 0:38:33.000
<v Speaker 3>going through he was young, like twenty eight years old,

0:38:33.440 --> 0:38:36.719
<v Speaker 3>and it's just like these moments, this life is so

0:38:36.880 --> 0:38:40.439
<v Speaker 3>precious and like finding joy in it and just kind

0:38:40.440 --> 0:38:45.560
<v Speaker 3>of removing these these societal made pressures. Like obviously it's

0:38:45.640 --> 0:38:47.719
<v Speaker 3>it's real because you have to survive, you have to

0:38:47.760 --> 0:38:51.000
<v Speaker 3>take care of yourself, but like every moment counts, and

0:38:51.040 --> 0:38:53.560
<v Speaker 3>it's just like being playful in it, being present in it,

0:38:53.920 --> 0:38:56.960
<v Speaker 3>and even being gentle with myself, you know, like how

0:38:57.000 --> 0:38:59.680
<v Speaker 3>I'm gentle with my child. And I took Luna with

0:38:59.719 --> 0:39:02.880
<v Speaker 3>me were to see my friend yesterday and I was

0:39:02.920 --> 0:39:04.520
<v Speaker 3>like before we walked in, I was like, damn sure

0:39:04.520 --> 0:39:06.239
<v Speaker 3>I tell her because I'm sure this is going to

0:39:06.280 --> 0:39:09.960
<v Speaker 3>be come up as a topic. But like even thinking

0:39:09.960 --> 0:39:14.359
<v Speaker 3>about introducing the concept of suicide to a ten year old,

0:39:14.400 --> 0:39:15.960
<v Speaker 3>you know what I mean, Like I don't know what

0:39:16.000 --> 0:39:17.799
<v Speaker 3>age I was when I realized, Like you know, when

0:39:17.800 --> 0:39:19.719
<v Speaker 3>you start to realize about birth and about death and

0:39:19.760 --> 0:39:21.719
<v Speaker 3>about life and like where do you go after? Like

0:39:21.719 --> 0:39:23.360
<v Speaker 3>those questions that start to dawn on you at a

0:39:23.360 --> 0:39:25.879
<v Speaker 3>certain age when you become cognitizant enough and conscious enough.

0:39:26.200 --> 0:39:29.040
<v Speaker 3>But I'm just like sometimes I'm worried if I'm introducing

0:39:29.040 --> 0:39:31.880
<v Speaker 3>to her to concepts too early. But then again, it's like,

0:39:31.920 --> 0:39:34.320
<v Speaker 3>this is life, this is what you're about to walk into.

0:39:34.360 --> 0:39:38.520
<v Speaker 3>But we're at such an interesting and delicate time that

0:39:38.960 --> 0:39:41.719
<v Speaker 3>I think that our parenting is showing up different than

0:39:41.719 --> 0:39:44.320
<v Speaker 3>our parents did too, Like we have so much more knowledge,

0:39:44.360 --> 0:39:46.520
<v Speaker 3>we have so much more awareness because we're literally scrolling,

0:39:46.520 --> 0:39:49.399
<v Speaker 3>we're literally present in adulthood in this way. And I'm

0:39:49.480 --> 0:39:53.080
<v Speaker 3>just like, there's this, Am I doing a good job?

0:39:53.120 --> 0:39:54.799
<v Speaker 3>Am I doing good enough? Am I going to like

0:39:55.160 --> 0:39:57.000
<v Speaker 3>die one day and be like, oh my god, in

0:39:57.040 --> 0:39:59.480
<v Speaker 3>twenty twenty four, I should have done this or should

0:39:59.480 --> 0:40:00.840
<v Speaker 3>have been at the or whatever.

0:40:00.840 --> 0:40:03.799
<v Speaker 4>And I'm just like, it is such a deep.

0:40:04.160 --> 0:40:06.239
<v Speaker 5>I think that though, Like I mean, yeah, I mean

0:40:06.280 --> 0:40:08.680
<v Speaker 5>I think there's gonna be the ebbs and flow of

0:40:09.719 --> 0:40:13.560
<v Speaker 5>sometimes it's guilt, and sometimes it is true sometimes like

0:40:13.880 --> 0:40:16.000
<v Speaker 5>what I said in my early like when I first

0:40:16.000 --> 0:40:17.880
<v Speaker 5>started the show and I was trying to find myself,

0:40:17.960 --> 0:40:21.239
<v Speaker 5>I was away doing shit that like was for me,

0:40:21.520 --> 0:40:25.120
<v Speaker 5>that was probably sometimes I had to literally sometimes reregulate

0:40:25.160 --> 0:40:28.080
<v Speaker 5>myself and say, bitch, go sit down, go be a mom,

0:40:28.360 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 5>like stop chasing this nake. You know, Like there's times

0:40:31.600 --> 0:40:33.200
<v Speaker 5>where you're doing that, like do you really need to

0:40:33.200 --> 0:40:35.279
<v Speaker 5>go on this girl's trip? Like your daughter has this

0:40:35.280 --> 0:40:37.440
<v Speaker 5>this this, Yes, you only get this moment to go

0:40:37.480 --> 0:40:39.640
<v Speaker 5>see this first recital, you know, like there's like the

0:40:39.680 --> 0:40:42.440
<v Speaker 5>ebbs and flow of the balance. And like one thing

0:40:42.480 --> 0:40:46.680
<v Speaker 5>I'll say is like I totally agree with the playfulness.

0:40:46.680 --> 0:40:49.919
<v Speaker 5>I totally agree that, Like as adults we lose sight

0:40:49.960 --> 0:40:52.799
<v Speaker 5>of that. And like even me, like sitting down and

0:40:52.800 --> 0:40:54.720
<v Speaker 5>looking at my old journals and seeing all the poetry

0:40:54.760 --> 0:40:57.000
<v Speaker 5>I used to write for just no other reason, just

0:40:57.040 --> 0:40:59.280
<v Speaker 5>because I was already in flow, because I was already

0:40:59.280 --> 0:41:02.319
<v Speaker 5>writing music, and then like trying to get back to

0:41:02.400 --> 0:41:06.120
<v Speaker 5>that and not overthink it. And then now we re

0:41:06.320 --> 0:41:09.239
<v Speaker 5>trying to introduce my daughter to this concept of having

0:41:09.280 --> 0:41:12.400
<v Speaker 5>fun making music. But then also like the discipline, and

0:41:12.440 --> 0:41:17.279
<v Speaker 5>like why I think I think that that is important,

0:41:17.560 --> 0:41:20.040
<v Speaker 5>Like yes, the play all those things, but then like

0:41:20.120 --> 0:41:23.200
<v Speaker 5>once you decide or once you see something blossoming, then

0:41:24.000 --> 0:41:26.400
<v Speaker 5>like really pushing the discipline. And that's where like I

0:41:26.400 --> 0:41:28.759
<v Speaker 5>think it gets a little tricky for parents because we

0:41:28.800 --> 0:41:30.840
<v Speaker 5>feel like I don't want to, like, am I forcing

0:41:30.880 --> 0:41:32.279
<v Speaker 5>her to do something she doesn't want to do? And

0:41:32.320 --> 0:41:34.200
<v Speaker 5>it's like, well, I think about all the times my

0:41:34.239 --> 0:41:36.000
<v Speaker 5>mom forced me to get up and take my ass

0:41:36.000 --> 0:41:39.080
<v Speaker 5>a soccer practice, forced me to do, like force me

0:41:39.120 --> 0:41:40.480
<v Speaker 5>to go to the audition I didn't want to go

0:41:40.480 --> 0:41:42.640
<v Speaker 5>to because I was scared, or because I just didn't

0:41:42.680 --> 0:41:43.279
<v Speaker 5>feel like it.

0:41:43.320 --> 0:41:45.560
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to go hang out with my friends. And like,

0:41:45.880 --> 0:41:46.879
<v Speaker 3>I think that we.

0:41:46.920 --> 0:41:50.640
<v Speaker 5>Become in a society sometimes a little too complacent too

0:41:50.719 --> 0:41:53.319
<v Speaker 5>with our parenting, and like, I do believe like there's

0:41:53.360 --> 0:41:56.200
<v Speaker 5>a level of discipline, especially in this age, that I

0:41:56.320 --> 0:41:59.000
<v Speaker 5>maybe like even before this age, honestly, that I think

0:41:59.040 --> 0:42:01.160
<v Speaker 5>it's important for kids, especially in the world that we're

0:42:01.160 --> 0:42:03.719
<v Speaker 5>living in now, especially in a world that's like literally

0:42:03.760 --> 0:42:06.400
<v Speaker 5>wants us to be numb, literally just wants us to

0:42:06.840 --> 0:42:09.719
<v Speaker 5>just tap in away and go like desensitize ourselves and

0:42:09.800 --> 0:42:12.840
<v Speaker 5>just go for pay and go forget what's really happening.

0:42:12.880 --> 0:42:14.960
<v Speaker 5>And it's like, no, Like there's a level of discipline

0:42:14.960 --> 0:42:16.840
<v Speaker 5>that at least for me, I can only speak for

0:42:16.880 --> 0:42:21.040
<v Speaker 5>myself that I'm realizing that I want to implement in

0:42:21.080 --> 0:42:22.520
<v Speaker 5>her because I've allowed her to.

0:42:22.480 --> 0:42:26.359
<v Speaker 3>Be choose what she wants to do. Oh, you want

0:42:26.360 --> 0:42:28.600
<v Speaker 3>to quit soccer? Okay, you know you're.

0:42:28.480 --> 0:42:30.480
<v Speaker 5>Only eight let's like figure out some other stuff you

0:42:30.520 --> 0:42:32.480
<v Speaker 5>want to do. And that's fine, but like I don't

0:42:32.520 --> 0:42:34.960
<v Speaker 5>want that to continue to be the trend in like

0:42:35.120 --> 0:42:37.319
<v Speaker 5>how I'm allowing her to flow in and out of

0:42:37.320 --> 0:42:39.560
<v Speaker 5>her interests. Like, if you're going to be interested in something,

0:42:39.640 --> 0:42:42.400
<v Speaker 5>let's really explore it all the way, fully decide if

0:42:42.400 --> 0:42:43.480
<v Speaker 5>you don't like this all the way.

0:42:43.760 --> 0:42:45.400
<v Speaker 3>Do you feel like when you did soccer and I

0:42:45.560 --> 0:42:48.400
<v Speaker 3>sorry go ahead, no sorry, no, no, no, go ahead. Do

0:42:48.440 --> 0:42:50.640
<v Speaker 3>you feel like when you were like, uh, deeply in

0:42:50.719 --> 0:42:52.799
<v Speaker 3>sports it was because you were like, this is what

0:42:52.840 --> 0:42:54.400
<v Speaker 3>I want to do and you're like, Mom picked me up,

0:42:54.520 --> 0:42:56.279
<v Speaker 3>we have a game, or is because she was like,

0:42:56.320 --> 0:42:56.960
<v Speaker 3>this is what you're.

0:42:56.800 --> 0:42:57.160
<v Speaker 4>Going to do?

0:42:58.040 --> 0:43:00.800
<v Speaker 3>No, I think that's My journey to sports was layered.

0:43:00.840 --> 0:43:01.359
<v Speaker 3>It's my dad.

0:43:01.400 --> 0:43:01.759
<v Speaker 1>My dad.

0:43:02.000 --> 0:43:04.239
<v Speaker 5>My dad was a professional athlete, like you know, the

0:43:04.320 --> 0:43:08.000
<v Speaker 5>top athletes ever, and like I always knew that growing up,

0:43:08.000 --> 0:43:11.240
<v Speaker 5>and people always assumed that I was an athlete because

0:43:11.239 --> 0:43:13.640
<v Speaker 5>of that, And then I actually did have talent as

0:43:13.640 --> 0:43:16.320
<v Speaker 5>an athlete. And then I also realized I liked winning

0:43:16.680 --> 0:43:19.400
<v Speaker 5>and so like, and I realized I was naturally competitive

0:43:19.480 --> 0:43:22.120
<v Speaker 5>and like that I could get good at something in

0:43:22.160 --> 0:43:24.640
<v Speaker 5>that way I think the first thing that I was

0:43:24.680 --> 0:43:27.399
<v Speaker 5>good at was swimming, So like I started competing in swimming, and.

0:43:27.360 --> 0:43:27.920
<v Speaker 3>Like that was fun.

0:43:27.960 --> 0:43:29.440
<v Speaker 5>I could hang out with my friends like I had

0:43:29.480 --> 0:43:33.160
<v Speaker 5>my crew, you know. But then there's times where like

0:43:33.200 --> 0:43:35.319
<v Speaker 5>I didn't fucking feel like doing it, and those are

0:43:35.360 --> 0:43:37.560
<v Speaker 5>the times where your parenting has to step in and

0:43:37.600 --> 0:43:39.479
<v Speaker 5>you have to like be.

0:43:39.600 --> 0:43:41.800
<v Speaker 3>Like it's hard. I didn't realize how difficult it probably

0:43:41.840 --> 0:43:43.680
<v Speaker 3>was for my mom At times. It's hard because you

0:43:43.760 --> 0:43:45.760
<v Speaker 3>want to be like, oh, baby, like it is early.

0:43:46.040 --> 0:43:48.080
<v Speaker 3>I did keep you up all late last night because

0:43:48.080 --> 0:43:49.759
<v Speaker 3>we were out with my friends, right, and now I'm

0:43:49.800 --> 0:43:51.360
<v Speaker 3>forcing you to get up at six am to go

0:43:51.360 --> 0:43:53.799
<v Speaker 3>to your soccer. Let's just stay no, Like my mom

0:43:53.920 --> 0:43:55.759
<v Speaker 3>did not play that shit, Like she was like, get

0:43:55.800 --> 0:43:57.960
<v Speaker 3>your ass up, you're going I don't care. You have

0:43:58.160 --> 0:44:00.640
<v Speaker 3>soccer in the morning and you have soccer after school,

0:44:00.960 --> 0:44:04.640
<v Speaker 3>and you know, like granted, eventually, I wouldn't say that's

0:44:04.640 --> 0:44:07.240
<v Speaker 3>why I started hating like that sport. It was probably

0:44:07.320 --> 0:44:07.800
<v Speaker 3>my coach.

0:44:08.239 --> 0:44:12.200
<v Speaker 5>But that level of discipline I see show up in

0:44:12.320 --> 0:44:14.759
<v Speaker 5>me now. I see how it shows up in like

0:44:15.120 --> 0:44:17.920
<v Speaker 5>how I like my well when I'm when I'm focused

0:44:17.960 --> 0:44:21.560
<v Speaker 5>on something I'm going to I'm going to follow it through.

0:44:21.600 --> 0:44:24.920
<v Speaker 5>I want to finish it, and then I see how

0:44:24.960 --> 0:44:27.279
<v Speaker 5>like sometimes it has it showed up for me too,

0:44:27.400 --> 0:44:31.239
<v Speaker 5>like in ways where I haven't completed things, and I

0:44:31.280 --> 0:44:32.919
<v Speaker 5>just want I want to give I want to give

0:44:32.920 --> 0:44:36.800
<v Speaker 5>my daughter the opportunity to really be able to hone

0:44:36.840 --> 0:44:39.640
<v Speaker 5>in on discipline, because I think discipline I learned early.

0:44:39.719 --> 0:44:42.439
<v Speaker 5>But then I think I kind of when you become an.

0:44:42.320 --> 0:44:44.520
<v Speaker 3>Adult and you can do whatever you want, you kind

0:44:44.520 --> 0:44:46.560
<v Speaker 3>of like lose track of that and you're like, fuck it,

0:44:46.560 --> 0:44:47.799
<v Speaker 3>I don't have to do this. I don't have to

0:44:47.800 --> 0:44:48.399
<v Speaker 3>do that well.

0:44:48.320 --> 0:44:50.000
<v Speaker 4>Because there's no practice, there's no coach.

0:44:50.200 --> 0:44:52.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, there's that's doing it. And then you're like, why

0:44:53.000 --> 0:44:54.920
<v Speaker 3>am I Why don't I know what I'm doing with

0:44:54.960 --> 0:44:57.000
<v Speaker 3>my life? I don't know what I'm doing? Mom? Help?

0:44:57.040 --> 0:44:59.919
<v Speaker 5>And your mom's like, bitch, I tried, it's on my hands.

0:45:00.320 --> 0:45:02.120
<v Speaker 5>So letting you get an adult. And then you're like,

0:45:02.200 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 5>I hate my nine to five?

0:45:03.680 --> 0:45:05.759
<v Speaker 3>What are you know? So it's I don't know.

0:45:05.840 --> 0:45:08.520
<v Speaker 5>I just I don't want to be like a fucking

0:45:09.040 --> 0:45:12.960
<v Speaker 5>what is it called an authoritarian? But I also I

0:45:12.960 --> 0:45:16.879
<v Speaker 5>think that I'm I realized like that I want her

0:45:17.000 --> 0:45:20.480
<v Speaker 5>to hone in on what it is that she wants, like,

0:45:20.520 --> 0:45:22.680
<v Speaker 5>for example, even horseback riding, like she hasn't she stopped

0:45:22.680 --> 0:45:23.239
<v Speaker 5>horseback riding.

0:45:23.320 --> 0:45:25.400
<v Speaker 3>She was getting really good at that. Obviously that was expensive,

0:45:25.440 --> 0:45:27.560
<v Speaker 3>so we had to stop that. That was getting crazy. But

0:45:27.800 --> 0:45:29.520
<v Speaker 3>like just certain things, I don't want her to think

0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:32.799
<v Speaker 3>that she can just pick and choose what she likes

0:45:32.840 --> 0:45:36.719
<v Speaker 3>and then abandon it when it gets a little bit challenging. Yeah,

0:45:37.080 --> 0:45:40.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm also realizing like we have to be examples for those,

0:45:40.280 --> 0:45:44.600
<v Speaker 3>for those for those uh, just little hobbies, you know,

0:45:44.760 --> 0:45:47.560
<v Speaker 3>like I I have.

0:45:47.560 --> 0:45:49.560
<v Speaker 4>To read books. For you to read books, I'd be like,

0:45:49.640 --> 0:45:49.920
<v Speaker 4>let's go.

0:45:50.080 --> 0:45:51.640
<v Speaker 3>You have to see me do the thing to even

0:45:51.640 --> 0:45:53.640
<v Speaker 3>be like, bitch you, I didn't see you read a

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:55.440
<v Speaker 3>book this year. And I've And that's another thing, Like

0:45:55.440 --> 0:45:58.000
<v Speaker 3>I used to read so much and because I was,

0:45:58.200 --> 0:46:01.040
<v Speaker 3>I was writing, so I was reading, and like time

0:46:01.200 --> 0:46:03.480
<v Speaker 3>now like I've finished two books this year, which is

0:46:03.520 --> 0:46:06.120
<v Speaker 3>a fucking miracle, you know, and it's we're in July,

0:46:06.320 --> 0:46:12.000
<v Speaker 3>and I obviously that's not a lot, but just diving

0:46:12.040 --> 0:46:14.640
<v Speaker 3>into my hobbies so that she sees me do the

0:46:14.719 --> 0:46:16.960
<v Speaker 3>same thing, so that she's encouraged to do the same thing.

0:46:17.040 --> 0:46:19.680
<v Speaker 4>Like it's such parenting.

0:46:20.840 --> 0:46:22.719
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if we'll ever stop figuring it out,

0:46:22.760 --> 0:46:27.160
<v Speaker 3>Like it's a constant dissection of like balance and compassion

0:46:27.239 --> 0:46:30.200
<v Speaker 3>and discipline. And it's just like I realized where my

0:46:30.320 --> 0:46:33.160
<v Speaker 3>parents could have probably been more like I never had

0:46:33.280 --> 0:46:35.600
<v Speaker 3>a parent that was like you have to do this

0:46:35.719 --> 0:46:38.000
<v Speaker 3>or like you know, I mean even when I was

0:46:38.120 --> 0:46:40.399
<v Speaker 3>deep into dance, like it's because that's what I wanted

0:46:40.400 --> 0:46:41.759
<v Speaker 3>to do, I was like waking that up, like yo,

0:46:41.760 --> 0:46:43.880
<v Speaker 3>you gotta drop me off at seven am, you know.

0:46:44.400 --> 0:46:47.920
<v Speaker 3>But I do feel like with adulthood, you're like, oh,

0:46:47.960 --> 0:46:49.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't have to do that, and so I could

0:46:49.600 --> 0:46:50.600
<v Speaker 3>just go hang out with my soul.

<v Speaker 3>Do you remember when I used to hate we used

0:48:19.280 --> 0:48:24.080
<v Speaker 3>to hate sing my partner. I know, I call my boyfriend,

0:48:24.400 --> 0:48:25.120
<v Speaker 3>my part.

0:48:26.880 --> 0:48:28.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I just to say that my friend Romo, she

0:48:28.880 --> 0:48:30.520
<v Speaker 5>used to call her man her partner, and I was like,

0:48:31.239 --> 0:48:33.719
<v Speaker 5>he sounds like he's trans or like are you, like.

0:48:33.760 --> 0:48:34.440
<v Speaker 4>Are you lesbian?

0:48:34.520 --> 0:48:38.400
<v Speaker 3>Are you? I don't know, like what's going on that.

0:48:38.960 --> 0:48:39.960
<v Speaker 4>We have a new vocabulary.

0:48:40.000 --> 0:48:42.280
<v Speaker 5>But you know what I see, I understand it now

0:48:42.440 --> 0:48:45.360
<v Speaker 5>because boy friend, my man.

0:48:45.239 --> 0:48:48.359
<v Speaker 3>Is not a boy and he's not my friend. So

0:48:48.400 --> 0:48:50.040
<v Speaker 3>where the fuck did we get this? I mean, he's

0:48:50.080 --> 0:48:51.920
<v Speaker 3>my friend, but like, where the fuck did we get this?

0:48:52.040 --> 0:48:57.320
<v Speaker 3>Like it's for teenagers, your boyfriend, yea, even a love Island.

0:48:57.560 --> 0:48:59.200
<v Speaker 5>Sorry, not to go back to the violin one of

0:48:59.239 --> 0:49:01.680
<v Speaker 5>the moments I noticed she was like, I'm going to

0:49:01.719 --> 0:49:02.640
<v Speaker 5>pick one of the boys.

0:49:02.800 --> 0:49:03.719
<v Speaker 4>I always call them boys.

0:49:03.800 --> 0:49:07.640
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, because they are they're like little boys, not

0:49:07.719 --> 0:49:08.319
<v Speaker 5>like the men.

0:49:08.640 --> 0:49:10.440
<v Speaker 3>Never the men, the boys.

0:49:10.120 --> 0:49:11.000
<v Speaker 4>Because they are boys.

0:49:11.360 --> 0:49:13.799
<v Speaker 3>I love them though, I'm like, I love I love

0:49:13.840 --> 0:49:15.239
<v Speaker 3>the life violent boys.

0:49:15.480 --> 0:49:17.480
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god, Oh my god.

0:49:17.520 --> 0:49:19.720
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, no, just like going back, like the discipline

0:49:19.760 --> 0:49:22.320
<v Speaker 5>I think is important and but for sure like the play,

0:49:22.560 --> 0:49:25.319
<v Speaker 5>like the play is is a big part of them

0:49:25.480 --> 0:49:28.399
<v Speaker 5>deciding what you want to be disciplined in. So I'm

0:49:28.440 --> 0:49:31.120
<v Speaker 5>excited to make some music with iron and see what

0:49:31.280 --> 0:49:33.880
<v Speaker 5>comes of it. And you know, I even when we

0:49:33.880 --> 0:49:35.640
<v Speaker 5>were writing the song, I could feel myself trying to

0:49:35.640 --> 0:49:38.840
<v Speaker 5>like I was like wanting to like control, like that

0:49:38.880 --> 0:49:40.680
<v Speaker 5>doesn't make sense, Like just leave it alone.

0:49:40.840 --> 0:49:43.080
<v Speaker 3>Let it not make sense. Okay, it doesn't make sense.

0:49:43.600 --> 0:49:49.359
<v Speaker 4>Music listen, it doesn't make sense. Yeah I do.

0:49:50.400 --> 0:49:53.880
<v Speaker 3>I just want to do more kids stuff because adulting

0:49:54.000 --> 0:49:56.920
<v Speaker 3>is intense. I want to pain and play and do

0:49:57.040 --> 0:50:01.840
<v Speaker 3>makeup and ride bikes night cycles and yeah, just be

0:50:01.880 --> 0:50:02.960
<v Speaker 3>the best mom I can be.

0:50:03.360 --> 0:50:05.479
<v Speaker 4>But there's no rule book.

0:50:05.520 --> 0:50:07.759
<v Speaker 3>Maybe that's the next book, a Good Mom's Guide to

0:50:07.880 --> 0:50:11.320
<v Speaker 3>being a good mom. I think, well, you make the rules.

0:50:11.520 --> 0:50:13.520
<v Speaker 3>You make the rule book for how you want a parent.

0:50:13.600 --> 0:50:14.080
<v Speaker 3>I think that.

0:50:14.120 --> 0:50:16.760
<v Speaker 5>I think you make the rules, and then you move

0:50:16.880 --> 0:50:21.839
<v Speaker 5>through life within those guardrails, right, like they're yours to do.

0:50:23.160 --> 0:50:25.920
<v Speaker 5>But I think that it's important to I don't know,

0:50:25.960 --> 0:50:29.080
<v Speaker 5>like you wing it. And then eventually, like when you

0:50:29.120 --> 0:50:31.640
<v Speaker 5>have your second child, you have tools, right, so then

0:50:31.680 --> 0:50:33.799
<v Speaker 5>it's you do have a book at that point. I mean,

0:50:33.800 --> 0:50:36.000
<v Speaker 5>obviously you're having a whole different child with a whole

0:50:36.040 --> 0:50:39.640
<v Speaker 5>different set of needs and wants. But ideally, like generally,

0:50:39.680 --> 0:50:42.080
<v Speaker 5>like there's some standard things that you know, like hey,

0:50:42.280 --> 0:50:44.239
<v Speaker 5>last time I did this, maybe this time I'm not

0:50:44.280 --> 0:50:44.759
<v Speaker 5>going to do that.

0:50:45.600 --> 0:50:47.000
<v Speaker 4>I think I've been really.

0:50:49.000 --> 0:50:53.440
<v Speaker 3>Scared and like it's not scared, but like really realizing

0:50:53.760 --> 0:50:59.560
<v Speaker 3>the the realness of like having another baby. And I'm like, oh,

0:50:59.840 --> 0:51:02.520
<v Speaker 3>like with one, it's one way, and it's been a

0:51:02.520 --> 0:51:03.680
<v Speaker 3>certain way with this child.

0:51:03.800 --> 0:51:04.640
<v Speaker 4>You know, we've been alone.

0:51:04.680 --> 0:51:06.920
<v Speaker 3>You know, it's just been a whole different Twenty seven

0:51:07.520 --> 0:51:09.960
<v Speaker 3>to ten years later to twenty seven to twenty four

0:51:11.880 --> 0:51:14.240
<v Speaker 3>is such a It's like I'm a whole different human

0:51:14.360 --> 0:51:17.880
<v Speaker 3>and like considering redoing that, and just like we have

0:51:17.920 --> 0:51:20.080
<v Speaker 3>so many friends who just like popped out kids back

0:51:20.080 --> 0:51:22.080
<v Speaker 3>to back, but we did it because we were just

0:51:22.120 --> 0:51:23.879
<v Speaker 3>like whoa, we just got the hang of this one.

0:51:24.360 --> 0:51:27.560
<v Speaker 3>And now considering redoing like doing that again. It's like

0:51:27.600 --> 0:51:33.080
<v Speaker 3>a resurgence of I guess, like the second half of adulthood,

0:51:33.440 --> 0:51:37.440
<v Speaker 3>the second half of motherhood. And it feels scary. It's like, oh,

0:51:37.520 --> 0:51:39.719
<v Speaker 3>my life is changing. And even though as women were

0:51:39.760 --> 0:51:43.560
<v Speaker 3>always talking about, like from young girls, we're like we

0:51:43.760 --> 0:51:45.279
<v Speaker 3>have a husband and then I'm gonna get a house

0:51:45.280 --> 0:51:46.960
<v Speaker 3>and then we're gonna live happy. I'll live every after

0:51:47.000 --> 0:51:49.360
<v Speaker 3>and I have three to five kids. But the reality

0:51:49.400 --> 0:51:50.840
<v Speaker 3>of that is like, oh my god, this is a

0:51:50.880 --> 0:51:53.879
<v Speaker 3>decade later. This is a whole news, Like I know

0:51:53.960 --> 0:51:57.279
<v Speaker 3>the I know that, not the darkness, but kind of

0:51:57.280 --> 0:52:01.160
<v Speaker 3>the deep, the deepness of having an infant, of pregnancy.

0:52:01.280 --> 0:52:04.400
<v Speaker 3>It's far away from me, but like I feel like

0:52:04.520 --> 0:52:10.320
<v Speaker 3>a like a like an adolescence, an adolescent in adults

0:52:10.400 --> 0:52:13.120
<v Speaker 3>like read dooing a new cycle again and I'm like,

0:52:13.239 --> 0:52:15.759
<v Speaker 3>oh wow, this is requiring a different part of me

0:52:15.840 --> 0:52:18.040
<v Speaker 3>because I do know better because I have done it

0:52:18.040 --> 0:52:19.279
<v Speaker 3>this way, and like how am I going to do

0:52:19.280 --> 0:52:19.719
<v Speaker 3>it this way?

0:52:19.719 --> 0:52:22.359
<v Speaker 4>What does this look like? And also just.

0:52:24.640 --> 0:52:30.000
<v Speaker 3>Thinking about aging and not in the like the vain sense,

0:52:30.080 --> 0:52:33.920
<v Speaker 3>but like safety finances, like I don't want to work

0:52:33.960 --> 0:52:37.960
<v Speaker 3>when I'm sixty five, Like I have to maintain comfortability

0:52:38.000 --> 0:52:41.160
<v Speaker 3>and safety for myself and for my child even after

0:52:41.280 --> 0:52:42.839
<v Speaker 3>I'm gone, And what does that look like?

0:52:42.880 --> 0:52:44.560
<v Speaker 4>What is what is the four oh one? Kay? What

0:52:44.680 --> 0:52:45.400
<v Speaker 4>is the retirement?

0:52:45.480 --> 0:52:48.400
<v Speaker 3>Like those type of thoughts too, are like I in

0:52:48.400 --> 0:52:51.799
<v Speaker 3>many ways, I still feel like a young I still

0:52:51.800 --> 0:52:55.160
<v Speaker 3>feel like love island age, Like fuck, this is Shit's

0:52:55.200 --> 0:52:57.440
<v Speaker 3>getting real, you know, and it's always been real, But

0:52:57.560 --> 0:53:00.200
<v Speaker 3>like I it's interesting how we go through these cycles

0:53:00.520 --> 0:53:02.920
<v Speaker 3>of adulthood, I mean just of life in general, Like

0:53:02.960 --> 0:53:05.200
<v Speaker 3>you know, there's words for it all the way up

0:53:05.239 --> 0:53:07.640
<v Speaker 3>into adulthood and then it's like you got it, but

0:53:07.680 --> 0:53:09.919
<v Speaker 3>the reality is like I don't got it. And there's

0:53:09.960 --> 0:53:12.960
<v Speaker 3>a lot of planning that's required that I wasn't necessarily taught,

0:53:13.000 --> 0:53:15.960
<v Speaker 3>So what the fuck? And it's it's scary, And I

0:53:16.000 --> 0:53:20.200
<v Speaker 3>think that there should be more conversations around like adult

0:53:20.280 --> 0:53:24.200
<v Speaker 3>fear and and like just well.

0:53:24.120 --> 0:53:26.000
<v Speaker 5>I think everyone, I think everything, there's a lot of

0:53:26.000 --> 0:53:27.279
<v Speaker 5>conversations around adult fear.

0:53:27.280 --> 0:53:30.719
<v Speaker 3>If you look on Instagram, everyone's scared. I think. I

0:53:30.719 --> 0:53:34.680
<v Speaker 3>think that's the problem, is that everyone's scared. Yeah, I

0:53:35.040 --> 0:53:35.920
<v Speaker 3>don't have I.

0:53:35.920 --> 0:53:38.759
<v Speaker 5>Don't necessarily have fear around having a baby. I mean

0:53:38.880 --> 0:53:41.439
<v Speaker 5>I just have Like I think I just know that's

0:53:41.719 --> 0:53:44.000
<v Speaker 5>it's not about the fear. It's just like I'm I'm

0:53:44.040 --> 0:53:46.239
<v Speaker 5>not in la la land about it. Like I'm very

0:53:46.320 --> 0:53:48.880
<v Speaker 5>clear about like the reality of it. I'm not like

0:53:49.640 --> 0:53:50.360
<v Speaker 5>what is it going to.

0:53:50.400 --> 0:53:53.280
<v Speaker 3>Be, Like, oh my god, are you gonna have his face?

0:53:53.640 --> 0:53:56.760
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, who's gonna pay these bills? Yeah?

0:53:57.040 --> 0:53:59.719
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Like like am I gonna have a v am

0:53:59.719 --> 0:54:01.040
<v Speaker 5>I gonna be able to have a vback?

0:54:01.120 --> 0:54:03.320
<v Speaker 3>If not, who's going to pay for this C section?

0:54:04.000 --> 0:54:07.640
<v Speaker 5>And like where is the world going to be at

0:54:07.840 --> 0:54:09.960
<v Speaker 5>when this baby's born? Like are we going to be

0:54:09.960 --> 0:54:13.359
<v Speaker 5>living in ai fucking universe? Or am I be able

0:54:13.400 --> 0:54:16.480
<v Speaker 5>to make money as a creator because now there's fake creators,

0:54:16.560 --> 0:54:20.960
<v Speaker 5>Like like that's where myne mind goes. It's not necessarily

0:54:21.040 --> 0:54:24.160
<v Speaker 5>like whether or not I can be a good parent

0:54:24.320 --> 0:54:27.160
<v Speaker 5>or I can do it or if like if like

0:54:27.200 --> 0:54:29.560
<v Speaker 5>sha Ken would be a good dad, Like I'm excited

0:54:29.640 --> 0:54:33.000
<v Speaker 5>about that idea, but it's just like it's the it's

0:54:33.040 --> 0:54:36.040
<v Speaker 5>the worldly things that I feel I think you have

0:54:36.080 --> 0:54:41.960
<v Speaker 5>no control worried about, but also like yeah, I just know.

0:54:42.200 --> 0:54:46.200
<v Speaker 5>I also know that historically God has looked out for me,

0:54:46.400 --> 0:54:50.360
<v Speaker 5>like literally all the time, every day, always, and so

0:54:51.560 --> 0:54:55.759
<v Speaker 5>I'm not really too worried about that either. It's just

0:54:55.800 --> 0:54:59.520
<v Speaker 5>like if it happens, great, When it happens, I'd like

0:54:59.560 --> 0:55:01.960
<v Speaker 5>to have a little bit more. I have control over

0:55:02.040 --> 0:55:06.120
<v Speaker 5>right now, and I'm continuing to have control over until

0:55:06.960 --> 0:55:08.960
<v Speaker 5>we feel like it's the time, which is not like

0:55:09.000 --> 0:55:13.120
<v Speaker 5>I'm not gonna have a baby until I'm married. So yeah,

0:55:13.239 --> 0:55:17.520
<v Speaker 5>I'm traditional in that way now now now, because and

0:55:17.840 --> 0:55:20.920
<v Speaker 5>that's a learning for me. That's something that I've learned

0:55:21.000 --> 0:55:23.800
<v Speaker 5>along the way, Like, don't have a baby with a

0:55:23.880 --> 0:55:26.200
<v Speaker 5>nigga that you're kind of broken up with, Like that's

0:55:26.320 --> 0:55:27.480
<v Speaker 5>probably not a great idea.

0:55:27.840 --> 0:55:29.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't have a baby with a nigga that you

0:55:30.040 --> 0:55:32.319
<v Speaker 3>see a lot of red flags and they're like, this

0:55:32.360 --> 0:55:34.120
<v Speaker 3>is probably is going to be an issue now. If

0:55:34.120 --> 0:55:35.759
<v Speaker 3>it's an issue now, it's probably gonna be an issue

0:55:35.760 --> 0:55:36.640
<v Speaker 3>when I have a baby.

0:55:37.520 --> 0:55:40.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, So you know, And I feel like I'm a

0:55:40.440 --> 0:55:42.040
<v Speaker 5>lot more. I feel like I feel like I'm a

0:55:42.040 --> 0:55:43.919
<v Speaker 5>patient parent, but I feel like I will have even

0:55:43.960 --> 0:55:46.239
<v Speaker 5>more patients. And I also feel like I will have

0:55:46.280 --> 0:55:51.680
<v Speaker 5>more support literally, like I like will be having a

0:55:51.719 --> 0:55:56.680
<v Speaker 5>real person that can actually help me tangibly. So I

0:55:57.080 --> 0:55:59.279
<v Speaker 5>do feel like it would be a different experience and

0:55:59.320 --> 0:56:03.439
<v Speaker 5>I'm excited about that. But all the other stuff, like, yeah,

0:56:03.480 --> 0:56:05.239
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it can be it can be scary. The

0:56:05.239 --> 0:56:08.600
<v Speaker 5>world is scary place, The Internet is weird, and I

0:56:08.680 --> 0:56:15.920
<v Speaker 5>highly highly recommend everyone unplug from the Internet, Instagram, TikTok,

0:56:16.440 --> 0:56:19.960
<v Speaker 5>like do detox is as often as possible, especially right

0:56:20.040 --> 0:56:24.920
<v Speaker 5>now because it's dark, it's weird and every time I

0:56:25.000 --> 0:56:27.600
<v Speaker 5>specifically Instagram for me, whenever I open it up, it's

0:56:27.680 --> 0:56:31.440
<v Speaker 5>a lot of negativity. Like I recently joined TikTok and

0:56:31.600 --> 0:56:33.080
<v Speaker 5>I can't believe I'm saying that out loud.

0:56:34.320 --> 0:56:37.160
<v Speaker 3>And when I'm there, it's a lot more cheerful, it's

0:56:37.200 --> 0:56:39.880
<v Speaker 3>a lot more happy over on TikTok. And I'm not

0:56:39.920 --> 0:56:42.280
<v Speaker 3>even scrolling on TikTok. I'm not even a TikTok scroller.

0:56:42.360 --> 0:56:44.719
<v Speaker 3>But like whenever I open the app, it's not like

0:56:45.040 --> 0:56:48.000
<v Speaker 3>duty is acquitted on all charges, Like it's not is.

0:56:48.000 --> 0:56:49.080
<v Speaker 4>He quitted in all charges?

0:56:49.120 --> 0:56:51.000
<v Speaker 5>Well, no, he's not quit all charges, but he's basically

0:56:51.000 --> 0:56:52.399
<v Speaker 5>going he's not going to serve any time. I don't

0:56:52.440 --> 0:56:54.440
<v Speaker 5>think he's not out though, No he's not out, but

0:56:54.480 --> 0:56:55.399
<v Speaker 5>I doubt he'll serve time.

0:56:55.480 --> 0:56:58.000
<v Speaker 3>Maybe he'll like do time served already rights.

0:56:58.680 --> 0:57:02.360
<v Speaker 5>Wow, But like that, like that compares along with all

0:57:02.400 --> 0:57:05.680
<v Speaker 5>of the all of the politics and the drownings and

0:57:06.320 --> 0:57:10.800
<v Speaker 5>just the climates and the love islands and the like.

0:57:11.360 --> 0:57:12.120
<v Speaker 4>It's a lot.

0:57:12.200 --> 0:57:15.759
<v Speaker 5>And so it's just you know, unplug I would say,

0:57:15.800 --> 0:57:18.200
<v Speaker 5>if you can, that's my tip of the day.

0:57:19.040 --> 0:57:22.040
<v Speaker 3>This is unplugged from the Internet. That's affirmation unplugged from

0:57:22.040 --> 0:57:28.760
<v Speaker 3>the ship. The affirmation is unplug from the Internet.

0:57:31.000 --> 0:57:33.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think I'm gonna go camping next week. I think,

0:57:33.800 --> 0:57:36.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I think what I need to utilize.

0:57:36.040 --> 0:57:39.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm realizing that to utilize nature in the place in

0:57:39.200 --> 0:57:41.440
<v Speaker 3>which I live, and not just reserve it for me

0:57:41.440 --> 0:57:42.360
<v Speaker 3>when I go to the jungle.

0:57:43.040 --> 0:57:44.760
<v Speaker 5>No, And that's what I've been That's why I've said

0:57:44.760 --> 0:57:46.160
<v Speaker 5>I've been going to the beach a lot. I live

0:57:46.280 --> 0:57:47.960
<v Speaker 5>fucking near the beach. I was like, why am I

0:57:48.000 --> 0:57:50.440
<v Speaker 5>not going to the beach more often? I mean, I

0:57:50.520 --> 0:57:53.360
<v Speaker 5>knew I hadn't been to Malibu since the fires.

0:57:53.600 --> 0:57:54.840
<v Speaker 4>How is it? Does it feel?

0:57:54.960 --> 0:57:56.280
<v Speaker 5>I didn't go to the like so when you go

0:57:56.320 --> 0:57:58.800
<v Speaker 5>over my canyon to the left is where all the

0:57:58.800 --> 0:57:59.320
<v Speaker 5>fires were.

0:57:59.520 --> 0:58:00.280
<v Speaker 3>I go to the right.

0:58:00.720 --> 0:58:04.720
<v Speaker 5>And yesterday I can't no. On On Sunday, I went

0:58:04.720 --> 0:58:07.920
<v Speaker 5>to Zooma zoom and it was beautiful. Really, it was

0:58:08.040 --> 0:58:08.560
<v Speaker 5>so nice.

0:58:08.600 --> 0:58:09.680
<v Speaker 3>The water was blue.

0:58:10.120 --> 0:58:12.800
<v Speaker 5>It was like Zuoma reminds me of my childhood too.

0:58:12.800 --> 0:58:14.200
<v Speaker 5>I spent so much of my child I don't know

0:58:14.200 --> 0:58:15.280
<v Speaker 5>why everyone was going to Zooma.

0:58:15.560 --> 0:58:16.840
<v Speaker 4>I would as a child too.

0:58:16.880 --> 0:58:18.400
<v Speaker 5>I know, I'm say she came to he was like

0:58:18.480 --> 0:58:20.440
<v Speaker 5>this was my beach. I'm like, why was everyone going

0:58:20.480 --> 0:58:20.880
<v Speaker 5>to zoom?

0:58:20.920 --> 0:58:22.600
<v Speaker 3>I guess I was a little bit outside of the city,

0:58:22.600 --> 0:58:24.280
<v Speaker 3>so the water is supposed to be a little bit better.

0:58:24.600 --> 0:58:24.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:58:25.440 --> 0:58:28.240
<v Speaker 5>So anyway, I've been I've been doing that as much

0:58:28.240 --> 0:58:29.919
<v Speaker 5>as I can, as much as I can, and it does.

0:58:29.960 --> 0:58:32.400
<v Speaker 3>It feels good. I feel like my transition from Costa

0:58:32.480 --> 0:58:33.880
<v Speaker 3>Rica to here has been pretty nice.

0:58:34.080 --> 0:58:37.480
<v Speaker 5>Like it hasn't been. It's like we had those days off.

0:58:37.840 --> 0:58:41.000
<v Speaker 5>Iri was at camp. I came back and it's been

0:58:41.120 --> 0:58:46.200
<v Speaker 5>like smooth, smooth sailing. Typically it's like coming back in

0:58:46.280 --> 0:58:49.360
<v Speaker 5>after a retreat in January and I have I'm in

0:58:49.680 --> 0:58:51.800
<v Speaker 5>Q one of our business and I have to get

0:58:51.840 --> 0:58:54.680
<v Speaker 5>back plug back in the team is like brand partnership.

0:58:54.720 --> 0:58:57.960
<v Speaker 5>So it's a little bit different in the summertime. But

0:58:58.760 --> 0:59:01.560
<v Speaker 5>I would encourage you guys, if your kids are out

0:59:01.600 --> 0:59:04.240
<v Speaker 5>of school, this is the time to go plug into nature.

0:59:05.000 --> 0:59:07.920
<v Speaker 5>Like if you've got to bring your laptop for work and.

0:59:07.880 --> 0:59:09.960
<v Speaker 3>Do a few hours of work, do that. But you

0:59:10.040 --> 0:59:12.480
<v Speaker 3>have the opportunity of like a free, open schedule and

0:59:12.560 --> 0:59:14.120
<v Speaker 3>open day, take advantage of it.

0:59:15.800 --> 0:59:16.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:59:16.360 --> 0:59:19.920
<v Speaker 3>I really just want to live my life in peace

0:59:20.240 --> 0:59:23.840
<v Speaker 3>and just do it. Intentionally, so it doesn't feel I

0:59:23.880 --> 0:59:27.000
<v Speaker 3>don't want to be on my deathbed and be like, wow,

0:59:27.040 --> 0:59:28.920
<v Speaker 3>I was rushing, Where was I going?

0:59:29.400 --> 0:59:30.800
<v Speaker 4>Everything was moving so fast?

0:59:30.840 --> 0:59:32.680
<v Speaker 3>I want to be like I mean, I know, I know,

0:59:32.880 --> 0:59:35.560
<v Speaker 3>like we I live such a full life, you know,

0:59:35.680 --> 0:59:38.320
<v Speaker 3>like we have such a good friends, We do fun shit.

0:59:38.760 --> 0:59:41.160
<v Speaker 3>This is everything that I manifested, you know, so like

0:59:41.240 --> 0:59:44.160
<v Speaker 3>being present in that too, and just yeah, like in

0:59:44.280 --> 0:59:47.600
<v Speaker 3>just the environment what we live outside of the internet,

0:59:47.680 --> 0:59:51.640
<v Speaker 3>outside of that, and just in nature, in this fucking

0:59:51.720 --> 0:59:54.640
<v Speaker 3>city that we pay thousands of dollars of taxes for

0:59:54.840 --> 0:59:55.840
<v Speaker 3>and rent.

0:59:56.480 --> 1:00:00.320
<v Speaker 4>So just yeah, fucking adult.

1:00:00.920 --> 1:00:03.320
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, do that, but then also be disciplined and get

1:00:03.320 --> 1:00:05.440
<v Speaker 5>your shit done so that you can do that right,

1:00:06.160 --> 1:00:08.200
<v Speaker 5>you know, like make all the coins you can so

1:00:08.240 --> 1:00:11.959
<v Speaker 5>that you can fucking retire early. Shrink your life down.

1:00:12.000 --> 1:00:14.040
<v Speaker 5>I feel like that's like something I've been thinking about

1:00:14.040 --> 1:00:16.680
<v Speaker 5>a lot too. It's like not that like I wouldn't

1:00:16.720 --> 1:00:18.080
<v Speaker 5>want to dream big and I don't want to have

1:00:18.160 --> 1:00:21.240
<v Speaker 5>like you know, I'm not like shrinking my dreams down.

1:00:21.320 --> 1:00:24.439
<v Speaker 5>It's more so like my need for things, like I've

1:00:24.880 --> 1:00:26.520
<v Speaker 5>I feel like I've gotten to a place where I've

1:00:26.560 --> 1:00:28.640
<v Speaker 5>acquired a lot of things that I asked for. But

1:00:28.680 --> 1:00:30.600
<v Speaker 5>then it's like I didn't think about the maintaining of

1:00:30.640 --> 1:00:33.280
<v Speaker 5>these things, and how unhappy it's made.

1:00:33.480 --> 1:00:35.680
<v Speaker 3>It's making me to have to maintain all.

1:00:35.560 --> 1:00:38.640
<v Speaker 5>Of these things when like, really like the richness of

1:00:38.720 --> 1:00:40.720
<v Speaker 5>life is in the experiences.

1:00:40.760 --> 1:00:42.920
<v Speaker 3>The richness of life is like how you live, of.

1:00:42.880 --> 1:00:46.240
<v Speaker 5>Course, but like simplicity, Yeah, there's like there's more simplicity

1:00:46.280 --> 1:00:49.200
<v Speaker 5>to it, Like and if you if you simplify your

1:00:49.200 --> 1:00:51.240
<v Speaker 5>life that you can buy that first class ticket to

1:00:51.440 --> 1:00:55.240
<v Speaker 5>Paris because you're not paying seven thousand dollars of rent

1:00:55.400 --> 1:00:59.840
<v Speaker 5>back home, you know, So it's like reimagining like what

1:01:00.000 --> 1:01:04.640
<v Speaker 5>but like richness looks like in your life? And because

1:01:04.680 --> 1:01:07.880
<v Speaker 5>I've been thinking about like, yeah, the maintaining of life

1:01:07.920 --> 1:01:10.320
<v Speaker 5>and like how are people doing this till they're like sixty,

1:01:10.360 --> 1:01:12.600
<v Speaker 5>Like especially in this economy now, it's so much different

1:01:12.600 --> 1:01:15.439
<v Speaker 5>than when our parents were our grandparents.

1:01:14.840 --> 1:01:17.040
<v Speaker 3>Were alive, Like how are people retiring?

1:01:17.160 --> 1:01:20.240
<v Speaker 5>Like honestly and literally and like feeling good about it,

1:01:20.400 --> 1:01:23.160
<v Speaker 5>feeling like I can still live how I lived. And

1:01:23.200 --> 1:01:26.120
<v Speaker 5>I think it's like when you get older, you actually

1:01:26.160 --> 1:01:28.880
<v Speaker 5>just realize you don't need all this shit, and you

1:01:29.120 --> 1:01:33.760
<v Speaker 5>just slowly start to simplify your life until you're like

1:01:34.120 --> 1:01:37.320
<v Speaker 5>living on a farm in Montana that you bought in

1:01:37.360 --> 1:01:39.840
<v Speaker 5>your early thirties that you never thought you'd really live

1:01:39.880 --> 1:01:40.960
<v Speaker 5>at and it's.

1:01:40.800 --> 1:01:44.760
<v Speaker 3>Fine and you're actually better off and you're TechEd away.

1:01:45.040 --> 1:01:48.320
<v Speaker 3>So I'm trying to get to that place sooner, yeah

1:01:48.440 --> 1:01:52.640
<v Speaker 3>than sixty five to seventy. I do feel like simplicity.

1:01:52.760 --> 1:01:57.200
<v Speaker 3>I do feel like, yeah, simple shit, simple, simple, simple.

1:01:57.520 --> 1:01:59.120
<v Speaker 3>But I do have things to do while I'm here,

1:02:00.760 --> 1:02:04.320
<v Speaker 3>and I love what I do, So yeah, I'm remembering that,

1:02:04.440 --> 1:02:08.640
<v Speaker 3>you know, like I we get to travel, we get

1:02:08.680 --> 1:02:10.840
<v Speaker 3>to make friends, we get to heal, we get to

1:02:11.160 --> 1:02:14.480
<v Speaker 3>play in a lot of different like different parts of ourselves.

1:02:14.800 --> 1:02:16.360
<v Speaker 3>We get to sit and talk to each other in

1:02:16.400 --> 1:02:19.280
<v Speaker 3>our studio and put on makeup and our kids are

1:02:19.280 --> 1:02:23.360
<v Speaker 3>in the other room and like barbecue and you know,

1:02:23.480 --> 1:02:25.440
<v Speaker 3>like all the fun things that we do in our

1:02:25.560 --> 1:02:27.560
<v Speaker 3>friend group. And I'm like, I'm grateful for that. I

1:02:27.600 --> 1:02:30.120
<v Speaker 3>recognize that this is a gift. We don't have to

1:02:30.160 --> 1:02:33.160
<v Speaker 3>go clock in and you know, and there's there's there's

1:02:33.360 --> 1:02:35.360
<v Speaker 3>pros and there's cons, But for the most part, this

1:02:35.520 --> 1:02:37.600
<v Speaker 3>is what I.

1:02:37.120 --> 1:02:42.640
<v Speaker 4>Envisioned in ways talking for a living hanging out with

1:02:42.680 --> 1:02:43.440
<v Speaker 4>my friend.

1:02:45.560 --> 1:02:47.040
<v Speaker 3>And pull a card. It's a terroot time.

1:02:47.240 --> 1:02:48.120
<v Speaker 4>It is terroot time.

1:02:48.640 --> 1:03:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, okay. Resilience, courage, persistence, test of faith boundaries.

1:03:05.760 --> 1:03:08.440
<v Speaker 3>It says, the nine of Wands comes as a sign

1:03:08.480 --> 1:03:11.400
<v Speaker 3>that even in the face of adversity, you stand tall

1:03:11.480 --> 1:03:14.480
<v Speaker 3>and strong. You may be on the edge of exhaustion,

1:03:14.600 --> 1:03:16.720
<v Speaker 3>but you are resilient, persistent, and ready to do what

1:03:16.760 --> 1:03:19.080
<v Speaker 3>it takes to get to the finish line. This card

<v Speaker 3>of your challenges, and you will achieve your goal. Others

1:04:12.440 --> 1:04:15.160
<v Speaker 3>may try to oppose your plans, make things difficult for you,

1:04:15.280 --> 1:04:17.240
<v Speaker 3>or even attack you for what you're putting out into

1:04:17.280 --> 1:04:19.760
<v Speaker 3>the world. Often they do it because they're jealous of

1:04:19.800 --> 1:04:22.600
<v Speaker 3>your success or rare, or are projecting their own insecurities

1:04:22.600 --> 1:04:25.120
<v Speaker 3>and fears on you. Don't let them get to you.

1:04:25.120 --> 1:04:27.480
<v Speaker 3>You're a change maker and you have a vital message

1:04:27.520 --> 1:04:29.840
<v Speaker 3>to share in this world. Don't dim your light because

1:04:29.840 --> 1:04:33.760
<v Speaker 3>of others insecurities. Okay, it doesn't look as sad as

1:04:33.760 --> 1:04:36.440
<v Speaker 3>he is. You're almost there. Just like we said, just

1:04:36.520 --> 1:04:41.040
<v Speaker 3>keep going, Just keep going. Does that resonate with you?

1:04:41.960 --> 1:04:45.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't feel battered and bruised, but yeah, I do

1:04:45.920 --> 1:04:56.120
<v Speaker 3>feel like there's like a push right now for completion and.

1:04:58.840 --> 1:05:02.919
<v Speaker 5>Knowing that there's more that I want to expand upon

1:05:02.960 --> 1:05:05.160
<v Speaker 5>even in this space that I haven't really had the

1:05:05.160 --> 1:05:09.920
<v Speaker 5>opportunity to, and that I wanted to. I wanted to

1:05:09.960 --> 1:05:13.360
<v Speaker 5>feel good, I wanted to feel in play. But I

1:05:13.400 --> 1:05:15.720
<v Speaker 5>also know that there's like a level of like focus

1:05:15.760 --> 1:05:19.720
<v Speaker 5>that it requires, So I guess I resonate with that.

1:05:20.080 --> 1:05:24.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I definitely feel like there's a shift happening, like

1:05:24.160 --> 1:05:26.400
<v Speaker 3>there's I mean, I guess there's shit is always changing.

1:05:26.560 --> 1:05:28.200
<v Speaker 4>Change is the one thing that's consistent.

1:05:28.240 --> 1:05:30.760
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, in my I guess maybe because I just

1:05:30.760 --> 1:05:33.840
<v Speaker 3>had a birthday and just where we're at in the world,

1:05:33.880 --> 1:05:36.280
<v Speaker 3>but I do think there's like an awakening and a

1:05:36.360 --> 1:05:40.000
<v Speaker 3>shifting happening and it's like a transitional time.

1:05:40.680 --> 1:05:41.200

<v Speaker 3>little more time, you have the option to do that.

1:06:53.880 --> 1:06:56.960

<v Speaker 3>a birthday coming up, let them know that's what you

1:07:05.560 --> 1:07:08.600
<v Speaker 3>want for your birthday. But don't make excuses. Invest in

1:07:08.640 --> 1:07:11.800
<v Speaker 3>your rest, invest in doing something different, like when you

1:07:11.800 --> 1:07:14.760
<v Speaker 3>step outside of the box. Beautiful things happen when you

1:07:14.760 --> 1:07:16.440
<v Speaker 3>say yes. And a lot of people are like, I

1:07:16.440 --> 1:07:18.160
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't go on no trip, But no, bitches, I don't know.

1:07:18.880 --> 1:07:23.400
<v Speaker 3>I've done it fifteen times and it's literally so much

1:07:23.440 --> 1:07:25.440
<v Speaker 3>fun to meet new people and going on an adventure

1:07:25.600 --> 1:07:28.720
<v Speaker 3>of you know, just the unknown and let somebody else

1:07:28.840 --> 1:07:31.160
<v Speaker 3>plan everything for you. You don't have to do shit,

1:07:31.360 --> 1:07:32.680
<v Speaker 3>you don't have to think about meals, you don't have

1:07:32.720 --> 1:07:35.120
<v Speaker 3>to think about transportation, you want to think about activities.

1:07:35.360 --> 1:07:37.400
<v Speaker 3>It's all provided for you. And that's the type of

1:07:37.440 --> 1:07:38.560
<v Speaker 3>vacation I want to have.

1:07:39.440 --> 1:07:41.880

1:08:03.720 --> 1:08:05.840

1:08:05.920 --> 1:08:08.480

1:08:08.520 --> 1:08:11.200
