1 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center. 3 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 2: Jack Armstrong's Joe Getty arm. 4 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 3: Strong and Gatty and he Armstrong and Getty Strong. 5 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 4: Hey, I'm Strong and Getty. We're featuring our podcast One 6 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 4: More Thing. Find it wherever you find all your podcasts. 7 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 5: So I came across this in the Washington Post about 8 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 5: Swedish death claiming kind of sort of. It's a variation 9 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 5: on this theme that we've heard from like what's her face? 10 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 3: The Marie Condo lady, remember her? That was all. 11 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 5: About you know, hold everything in your hand and if 12 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 5: you don't cherish it, get rid of it. Neatness, your 13 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 5: home should be neat all the time. Blah blah blah. 14 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 5: Then she had a kid and said, yeah, f this. 15 00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the best part of that story is she 16 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 4: was tight clutter and how and then then she had 17 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 4: kids and decided, yeah, you can't. 18 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 3: You can't keep up with this. It's impossible. 19 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, all that stuff I said before, forget it anyway. 20 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 5: So this story opens up is all stories must with 21 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 5: this lady whose mom passed away, one bedroom apartment, mostly 22 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 5: clean and tidy. 23 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 3: Uh. 24 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 5: So we thought it'd be manageable. When she passed, we 25 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 5: were wrong. And then they get into the racks and 26 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,279 Speaker 5: racks of clothes, many unworn in years, kitchen cabinets stocked, 27 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 5: stacked with pots and plastic storage containers, bulk orders of 28 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 5: tissues and hot sauce. Each item on its own wasn't unreasonable, 29 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 5: but the aggregate proved overwhelming. For several painful weeks, we 30 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 5: gave things away, sometimes with labels still on them. During 31 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 5: your garage sale, pill carted off thousands of dollars in goods. 32 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 5: We piled the driveway high with stuff then posted to 33 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 5: buy nothing groups. So I didn't even know that was 34 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 5: a thing. Yeah, I understand like free stuff, but yeah, 35 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 5: that's what it is. It's a social media it's the 36 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 5: buy nothing. It's just basically this is for free, come 37 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 5: pick it up whatever. Huh And okay, finally we paid 38 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 5: a crew in multiple trucks to pick up the rest. 39 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 5: And then then they go into this reality show that 40 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 5: this chick does the gentle art of Swedish death cleaning, 41 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 5: which is one of the worst titles I've ever heard 42 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 5: for any piece of entertainment ever, but it was inspired 43 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 5: by a best selling book by this eighty nine year 44 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 5: old Swedish woman who talks about not getting caught up 45 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 5: in material things. You are not your stuff, letting go 46 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 5: of the stuff, not letting it accumulate, and how much 47 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 5: how much that helps you, because clutter is linked to 48 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 5: stress and anxiety and depression, all sorts of stuff. 49 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 3: I believe that. 50 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: I hope I am not my stuff. Looking at my garage, 51 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 4: I'm a mess. Examples I have just so much crap. 52 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 3: Just just get a rap. Yeah, I'm a bit of 53 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 3: a hoarder and it's weird. 54 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 4: I don't think I am you actually you like horde stuff? No, 55 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 4: a bit of a hoarder. I have clothes I don't wear. 56 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 4: I'm probably almost certainly not going to wear, but I 57 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 4: don't get rid of them. I feel this, I feel 58 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 4: this pain getting rid of them. 59 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: I don't. Yeah, I don't think I have that. 60 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 4: I have a There's probably in that big closet full 61 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 4: of clothes. Some I do want to keep. I'm not 62 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 4: going to go through them all, so I just keep 63 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 4: them all. Are those boxes in the garage, there's some 64 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 4: stuff in there I don't want to throw out all. 65 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 6: I'll do cleaning and I'll find myself almost feeling an 66 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 6: emotional attachment to maybe the memory that that T shirt has, 67 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 6: like a band T shirt or something from a show, 68 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 6: or I'll get frustrated with myself with a certain item 69 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 6: and going, Kate, you don't need to keep this. It is, yeah, 70 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 6: totally irrelevant, but it was attached to something I did. 71 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 4: This is probably universal. But the really tough ones are 72 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 4: kids stuff. I mean, you can't keep every clothing item, 73 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 4: every kit you kid ever had, or book or toy, 74 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 4: but god dang it, throwing some of that. 75 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 3: Stuff out seems like just wrong. How do I get 76 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 3: rid of this book. 77 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 4: That I read to my kids every night for years 78 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 4: during the greatest moments. 79 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 3: I can't keep them all. I don't need eighty books 80 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 3: eight weeks. 81 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 5: We kept a bunch, you know, assuming nieces and nephews 82 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 5: and grandkids or whatever would be in the picture eventually, 83 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 5: and have given some way to other parents because that 84 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 5: feels good. 85 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 3: The clothes. 86 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 4: I see a T shirt and I think, oh, I 87 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 4: remember when Sam would wear this. 88 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 3: But I can't keep all the shirts. 89 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 5: Well, there are so many memories that they trigger. I 90 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 5: get that, but that's defensible to me. Some shirt that 91 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 5: I'm just not gonna wear probably it's just weird. I 92 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 5: think I've always thought it's probably because you know, I 93 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 5: didn't grow up poor, but we were far from rich, 94 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 5: and you know, I was wearing hand me downs and stuff, 95 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 5: and the idea of a nice new shirt was like 96 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 5: really really cool, And so it's hard for me to 97 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 5: I don't know anyway. 98 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 4: There's a and pain in knowing you paid fifty bucks 99 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 4: for something and now it's worthless. That is also something 100 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 4: going on in your brain. 101 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's funny. 102 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 4: I don't really that doesn't bother me as much. I 103 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 4: don't think I bought this shirt and while I'm going 104 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 4: to give it away. Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. 105 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 3: I realized. 106 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 5: Then they go into each product we buy on average 107 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 5: accounts for roughly six point three times it's weight in 108 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 5: carbon emissions whatever. Yeah, I really don't give a shout off. 109 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 4: I had to go there. 110 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, okay, So onto Swedish death cleaning or durstyaming. 111 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 5: I don't even know what that letter is, much less 112 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 5: how to say it. 113 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 3: It's it's it isn't about clearing out closet. 114 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 5: It's about it's about rethinking your relationships with things rather 115 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 5: than making do with less it's about getting more from 116 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,039 Speaker 5: the things that make you happy. 117 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 4: I had a buddy who is so good at this 118 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 4: with clothes, Like when we were in college. I had 119 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 4: a closet full of clothes that I was never gonna 120 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 4: wear again that had been toting around, and he was good, like, 121 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 4: these are the two pairs of pants I'm going to 122 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 4: wear this summer. These are the three cool shirts I like? 123 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 4: Is it? 124 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 3: He got rid of everybody else and he was Wow, 125 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 3: I wish I could do that. 126 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 5: So death cleaning happens to agree with scientists understanding of 127 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 5: our relationship with things and why we're loathed to part 128 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 5: with them. Decades of research have shown that we subconsciously 129 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 5: see our possessions as physical extensions of ourselves. Losing them 130 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 5: feels like an amputation because in our minds it is 131 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 5: we're attached to our belongings because we identify them, says 132 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 5: researcher in Dublin. This conveer into pathologies such as hoarding. 133 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 5: Belonging has become sof fused with a sense of self 134 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 5: that people lose the ability to differentiate between, say, the 135 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 5: value of a saved wedding ring of saving a wedding 136 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 5: ring or a candy wrapper. 137 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 3: Wow, now that's pathological. 138 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 5: Instead of our possessions offering quote a vital receptacle for 139 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 5: our memories and identities, researchers say they become a fortress, 140 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 5: physical barriers to ward off feelings of insecurity and loneliness. 141 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 3: Wow. Yes, this is crazy. 142 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 4: I don't doubt some of this. I think my problem 143 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 4: is mostly laziness. It's well or not laziness. Some laziness. 144 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: Well, you're crazy busy. Yeah, I'm too busy to go. 145 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 4: Through a bunch of boxes in my garage to see 146 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 4: what I want to throw out or not. 147 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 3: That's what's slowing me down. Have you ever watched the 148 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 3: show Hoarders? 149 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, there's a clear line between what we're 150 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 4: talking about and them. 151 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 6: Right, But the way that they their emotions spikes so 152 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 6: much when they do try to get rid of things, 153 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 6: it's I mean, that's that's absolutely mental. 154 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 4: My youngest kid has a little bit of that. He's 155 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 4: definitely got more of that than that is good. He 156 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 4: just ah, his attachment to some things is. 157 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 3: A little scary. Wow. 158 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 5: Well, I'm glad you're all enjoying this as I psychoanalyze 159 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 5: myself because this is crazy. His research this is the 160 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 5: guy we decided earlier shows that materialism, a tendency to 161 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 5: seek out possessions for status or approval, is unequivocally associated 162 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 5: with more loneliness and less happiness. But not all possessions 163 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 5: are equal. Things required for their beauty, utility, or their 164 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 5: association with positive experiences and social relationships don't show the 165 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 5: same correlation. That's interesting my grandmother's garden if, for example, 166 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 5: for example, every time I hold it, the smooth hickory 167 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 5: handle polish over a half century resurrects blissful childhood hours 168 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 5: spent in her Florida garden, et cetera, et cetera. It's 169 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 5: a good thing to have a few reminders symbolic meaning, 170 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 5: et cetera, et cetera. And I'm willing to bet many 171 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 5: things in your home, as in mine, are neither useful, beautiful, 172 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 5: nor sentimental. So moving on, how does death cleaning work? 173 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 5: Things that take up space in our minds as well 174 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 5: as our addicts and garages, bah bah.

It's being thoughtful 273 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 5: Before bringing something into my home. I now think about 274 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 5: it's fate.

I got 323 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 4: two good stories around this. So one, I'm driving from Charlotte, 324 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 4: North Carolina, to Nashville to catch a concert and I 325 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 4: don't and I'm running kind of late, and I need 326 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 4: to pee and there's U and I don't want to 327 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 4: pull over, and so I have a Gatorade bottle and 328 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 4: I thought, you know what, I'm gonna pee in the 329 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 4: gatorade bottle while I'm driving. And what I learned is 330 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 4: the volume of urine that comes out of you is 331 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 4: a lot more than you think it is, because the 332 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 4: gatorade bottle filled up like that. And then it was 333 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 4: just he going everywhere. It was horrible, charming story. It's 334 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 4: a shame it's over. So then the other story is 335 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 4: this my poor son with his anxiety problems. He went 336 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 4: through a boy a year or two period where he 337 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 4: had to pee like every thirty seconds, Poor Lill. 338 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 3: It was horrible. 339 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 5: I'm so glad that's not the case anymore, because I 340 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 5: remember how difficult that was. 341 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 3: Horrible. 342 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 4: We had pads all around the house. He was a 343 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 4: pretty little kid. Pads all over the house could just 344 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 4: for nervousness.

I made my best effort 387 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 6: to make all. 388 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 4: Of you look good. 389 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 6: So doing what For instance, sometimes someone's eyes will be closed, 390 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 6: you can open them. Somebody's not smiling when they usually would, 391 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 6: you can give them a smile. 392 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 3: What app or phone are you using to do that? 393 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,919 Speaker 3: Face tune? Face tune? Yeah? 394 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 4: So the Google picks thing. You've probably seen the ads. 395 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 4: It looks fantastic. But they've got a thing called best take, 396 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 4: where you do a blast of photos and then you 397 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 4: can pick each individual face. This is the best one 398 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 4: from this one. This is the best one in you know, 399 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 4: in a group photo. That's which sounds like was more 400 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 4: or less what they did there at Kensington. 401 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:20,439 Speaker 3: Palace with the royal family. 402 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 4: I'm surprised they don't have more sophisticated software than they 403 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 4: did well. According to their statement, Prince Will, I don't 404 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 4: even hardly know these people's names, Prince Vine. Prince Will 405 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 4: took the picture last week and Kate edited. Then she 406 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 4: edited it. I guess like a lot of wives probably 407 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 4: do if their husband takes a bad photo. 408 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 3: I don't know. 409 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 6: This whole thing is because there was a big conspiracy 410 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 6: theory that she was dead after this abdominal surgery she 411 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 6: had because she hadn't been seen in the public, and 412 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 6: now they're trying to find any reason they can to 413 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 6: keep that conspiracy alive. 414 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 5: I e. 415 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,160 Speaker 6: They edited this photo and she's not really around or something. 416 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 3: That's what I've been reading. 417 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, that's that's That doesn't explain all of the coverage, 418 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 5: but certainly some of it. Now I'm willing to concede 419 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 5: that I may be an outlier in this stuff, you know, 420 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 5: to Katie's point, I don't hang out with people who'd 421 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 5: give a single crap. I mean, unless they're like I 422 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 5: take a picture and in the background they're with their 423 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 5: lover and their wife doesn't know about it. 424 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 3: They might be worried about that. But you certainly, yeah, 425 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:32,199 Speaker 3: they'd ask me to. 426 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 5: But I've just I'm now, if we're talking about bringing 427 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 5: out a little contrast or something like that, a filter 428 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 5: because it was a little bright there or something, I mean, 429 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 5: that's just that's how you make decent looking photographs. But 430 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 5: like slimming people and you know, give them a better 431 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 5: smile or white in their teeth and stuff like that, 432 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 5: I just I it makes me uncomfortable. I feel like 433 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 5: it's divorcing reality from perception in a way that's unhealthy. 434 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 3: Do you ever do you ever slim people? Katie? No, No, 435 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 3: that's not that's not cool. 436 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 6: But I see your point, Joe, as you're drawing the 437 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 6: line basically at contrast and lighting, well, Joe's. 438 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 4: Drawing very bright lines between good people and bad people. 439 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 4: So we got to figure out which end of the 440 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 4: line we're all on. This must be what it's like 441 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 4: to be in a hearing in Congress. So we need 442 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 4: to find out which side of Joe's good people bad 443 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 4: people line were on. 444 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 3: So you're okay with contrast and bright? We have a format? Okay, great? 445 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 4: But yes, are you okay with the You got a 446 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 4: bunch of photos and you put the smile on everybody's 447 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 4: best smile in the photo. 448 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: Are you okay with that or not? 449 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 5: It seems ridiculous to me, Although if each of those 450 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 5: individual images existed, just not at the same time, I 451 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 5: will allow it. 452 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 4: Like a fly lands on somebody's face and you make 453 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 4: a weird face trying to get the fly off, and 454 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 4: you're just gonna leave it like that, right guy? 455 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 3: Or here's here's a question. 456 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 5: What have you gained by and what have you lost 457 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 5: by not including that image? 458 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 3: I don't know. 459 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 5: You are serving the idea of always looking unrealistically beautiful 460 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 5: or or great, as opposed to capturing a moment where 461 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 5: something really funny happened. 462 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 4: Well, speaking for myself, it's it's hard for me to 463 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 4: wrap my head around this because I don't have the motivation, 464 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 4: because I don't have any social media that I post 465 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 4: pictures on so nobody ever sees them. Me and other 466 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 4: people in my family. Sometimes me and the kids go 467 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 4: through my phone. But so I'm not posting these for 468 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 4: any stuff. So maybe I would be more motivated to 469 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 4: if I posted these where anybody would see them. 470 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 3: But like I know someone. 471 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 4: Who who who clearly uses the thinning thing whenever they 472 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 4: post pictures, because I see them on a regular basis, 473 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 4: and I know that that's not what they look like. 474 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 4: And one that I wonder about, I just. 475 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 5: Think that's fundamentally unhealthy. To thine own self be true 476 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 5: is like my my guiding principle for every thing in 477 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 5: life because and it's not I'm not coming off as 478 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 5: high handed. I think I may be better than some 479 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 5: people at least a recognizing my weaknesses and realizing you 480 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 5: are really tempted to do that. 481 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 3: That's one of the. 482 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 5: Things you really need to be careful about. And one 483 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 5: of them is you know, self delusion or you know, 484 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 5: how how would I put this? And I'm more than 485 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 5: willing to concede that I'm I may be an outlier 486 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 5: and a little bit weird about this, and you live. 487 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 3: Your own life. I honestly don't care. I don't care enough. 488 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 5: About the way you live your life to judge you 489 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 5: unless you're hurting other people. So don't take anything I 490 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 5: say as some sort of like Jack trying to frame 491 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 5: it as your exactly. 492 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 3: That's probably you know what, Honestly, that's probably a better 493 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 3: way to frame this discussion. It's more entertaining. This is 494 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 3: called Joe's the jerk. I just what are you doing? 495 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 5: Why are you doing that so people think you're better 496 00:23:58,880 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 5: looking than you are? 497 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 4: Why for dating apps if you're single and you're dating. 498 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 4: If I was doing that, and I've never done online 499 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 4: dating and I'm never going to, but if I was, 500 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 4: gott it be, I don't think I could stop myself 501 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 4: from just slightly slimming your face. I mean, finely different questions. 502 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 3: It is a complete posting pictures of guys who weren't 503 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 3: even me. 504 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 4: That is a completely different question though, although at a 505 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 4: point though you're really misleading people. I mean, because I 506 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 4: heard people talk about showing up to meet somebody and 507 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 4: it's like you're the same person from that photo. Come on, yeah, 508 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 4: I wouldn't want that. That would be hurtful. I wouldn't 509 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 4: want I wouldn't want that myself. I don't want to 510 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 4: meet somebody that I lured them in by making myself 511 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 4: look different.
