1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Oh my god, we're in person. Oh I'm not gonna lie. 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I think just being around you makes me dump. 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: I think that's a coin. It's like drunk drunken. Yeah, 4 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,480 Speaker 1: we'd be all night. I love when I tried to 5 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: from like I'm Beyonce. Um. You know what's so interesting 6 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: is that when you got here, I was like, I'm 7 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: gonna have a cocktail, and then literally we talked. This 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: is what always happens that, right, we start talking. So 9 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: I'm now one of my second Martine. I'm gonna paint 10 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,200 Speaker 1: a picture. She had like a tumbler full of Martin. Listen, 11 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: it's like soccer mom, martini tumbler. Well that's basically my 12 00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: life now, by the way, But also, can I just 13 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: like stand up for myself for just a second. I 14 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,639 Speaker 1: personally don't ever make martini's. My boyfriend is really good 15 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: at them, and so I'm always like, hey, they will 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: make me a martini. And that's become a new program. 17 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: When I actually want to have a cocktail, it's like 18 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: I do a martini and then a glass of wine. 19 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: Like it's like it's like the perfect combination of tipsy 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 1: for me. Right, it's not too drunk, but your tipsy, 21 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: but you know we'll get you. I got a little buzz. 22 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: I'm like feeling the flow. You know, I'm not going 23 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: to go like ride a mechanical bull downtown, but I'm 24 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 1: like feeling that takes tequila. That takes tend tequila drinks, right, 25 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: I mean a little off the tequila lately because COVID 26 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: and I've been at home too much. But um, anyway, 27 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: and so he's not here, and I just was like, oh, 28 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: but I have a hankering for a martini, so I 29 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:34,199 Speaker 1: googled a recipe, but I think I made a double. Yeah, 30 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: and you know people are listening to this on Friday 31 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: morning right, well, you know it's five o'clock somewhere. I mean, 32 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: it is, that's true. Can you we should invent like 33 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: a tequila martini? Well, I think they have that. I 34 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: don't know, or we should just try it. It's just 35 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: cold chilled tequila. Yeah, it's just chilled tequila with all 36 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: of you. I mean I like them dirty, yeah, as 37 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: you do. You know. I mean I feel like if 38 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: you can make it with gin or vodka, you can 39 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: make it with tequila. Right. It seems like you tequila 40 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: has a little bit of a smoky flavor. So maybe 41 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: it's like we come up with some recipe that's like 42 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: a smoking smoky more tot. I love that we always 43 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: like say they's ideas we're going to do and never Okay, 44 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: on my to do list this at the top of 45 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: the year, I wrote, we're making a merging store. We're 46 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: doing it. We're doing that. We were moving to me 47 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: the other day, tried ain't all It's like I should 48 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: be offended by that, but I actually just laughed.

Okay, I promised that putting 51 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: it out there. It's a full moon. It's a full moon, like, 52 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: oh okay, so um, we're in person and it's actually 53 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: the first time this year, which makes me so happy 54 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: because I feel like this is so different for us, 55 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: the first time since November. Oh yeah, because you were 56 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: in Virginia for yes, So this is going to be 57 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: maybe our best episode ever. Be clearly no, but I 58 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: do feel like in person is so much better. And 59 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: you and I were talking earlier and I was like, 60 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: you know, the topics. I feel I have a moment 61 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: this week that really registers casual for me, and you 62 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: said you did too. And I feel like, right now 63 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: what we want to do is just spitball these topics 64 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: back and forth. Do you want to go first? I 65 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: feel like yours is actually pretty well. You know, I 66 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: haven't been blessed with this actual um thing um, but 67 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: this is more something that I've witnessed, like when you 68 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: become a meme, you know, like first of all, like 69 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: when a picture of anybody sort of takes off on 70 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: the internet, like Kim Kardashian was trying, Yeah, um yeah 71 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: it's and it becomes a meme and it takes off. 72 00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: There is literally nothing that you can do other than 73 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: to act casual about it. And obviously there's the big 74 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: story this week was the Bernie Sanders from the inauguration, 75 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: Like I mean, it literally gave me life, can you? 76 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: And they're still rolling in and they're all so good. 77 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: I thought that I would be sick of it by now, 78 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: but I'm really not, Like it won't. I don't think 79 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: it will ever not be funny. In fact, I order 80 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: so the way that he acted casual, he recognized the moment, 81 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: and this is brilliant. He put it on a T 82 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 1: shirt and a sweatshirt and um sold it for the 83 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: proceeds going to meals on wheels and to to date 84 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: they've raised one point eight million. That's insane. First point. 85 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: I mean, that is literally the epitome of acting casual. 86 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: You lean into whatever it is that is is being 87 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: put out there and you just laugh at yourself. To me, 88 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: I've said this to you before, and I keep referencing 89 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: the Kardashians, which makes me mad when I do this 90 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: too much. But they do, like they figured out how 91 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: to lean into whatever it is they're being made fun 92 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: of and actually capitalize on it. You capitalize on it, 93 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: which I love that. Bernie Sanders, who does not need 94 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 1: the money, was like, Hey, this is an opportunity for 95 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: me to raise a ton of money for a good 96 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: cause because this is not going so I might as well. 97 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: Brilliant Musgraves did something similar, like there was a meme 98 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: that happened with her when she one album of the 99 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: Year and I think she was saying like she was 100 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: mid saying what and her face was all scrunched up, 101 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: and it became a meme it's actually your socket. She 102 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: recognized that and she had a pop socket made and 103 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: sold millions of them. Probably when I was on Very Cavaliery. 104 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 1: A friend of ours paused at the show and screenshot 105 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: in my face and it looked like that, you know 106 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: that emoji that has the like windy smile or that's 107 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: the only way I know how to describe it, is 108 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: like squiggly face. But it's like it would be what 109 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: you would do when you feel awkward and uncomfortable and 110 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: maybe I need to act casual and I'm not quite 111 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: there yet. My face was that, and he made it 112 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: into his own kind actually was like I should have 113 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: sold those because I would have done really well. Oh, 114 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 1: I guess, like a really missed opportunity. But let's go 115 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: back to Bernie Sanders, because this has taken over the nation, 116 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: and okay, there's a couple of things I want to 117 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: say about that. I feel like, first of all, this 118 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: is the first week we have felt comfortable drinking, talking, 119 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: having fun, acting casual life, and like our country has 120 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: felt so heavy for so long, and we both said 121 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 1: this week, you know, it feels a little lighter. It 122 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: just feels a little lighter. And I honestly felt like 123 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: the Bernie meme, like, regardless of your political stance, regardless 124 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: of how you feel about him, you could look at 125 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: that and laugh. And we collectively had one thing for 126 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: one second that we were like, oh my gosh, let's 127 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: laugh at this, the fact that he had like an 128 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: envelope in his hand, and it was like, means that 129 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: like swinging by the inauguration, then swinging by the post office, 130 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: like I love you know, I love it. There was 131 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: that one that was like listed off his time schedule, 132 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,239 Speaker 1: was like swinging by the post office at ten eleven o'clock. 133 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: Joe's thing, like, no big deal. Just Also, have you 134 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: seen the video where it's like it's like the person 135 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: who made Bernie's mitten and it's like the paparazzi chasing them. 136 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 1: They're literally jumping down an escalator trying to run from 137 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: the paparazzi because it's so bad. But it's just stuff 138 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: like that, like it literally just thinking of Bernie Sanders 139 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: and all these different places. I made one with a 140 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: velvet disco queen. I mean, I made one for Lindsay 141 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: Hell's off. It's just fun, you know, it's just so fun. 142 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: Oh my god. It was like where's Waldo, but like 143 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: where's Bernie?

The Internet like never ceases to amazement. 179 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 1: People are so funny. Well, and whoever I just googled 180 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: who started the Bernie meme? Because who, like, who ever 181 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: thought of that and whoever noticed him in the crowd 182 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: is one of the funniest people I've ever But let's 183 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: let's go back to literally where was he sitting Like 184 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: it looked it's like he was relegated to the general 185 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: admission section. He probably was, I mean, but he wasn't 186 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: dressed for the occasion, so it says okay. Brendan's I 187 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: can't pronounce his last name, Similoowski.

That picture is really not that great. It's 190 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: not the nicest composition in the world. But for whatever reason, 191 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: I guess he posted it somewhere and someone picked up. 192 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm trying to see if there's anything else a couple 193 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: of people like this, says Ashley small As, a PhD 194 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: student at Penn State, shared the photo photo on her Twitter, 195 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: writing this could have been an email and so then 196 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 1: that that really got went viral.

And 226 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: it's like one of those things where it's like, I 227 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: think what made it really take off during COVID was 228 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: the um people would send a text that was like 229 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: a COVID update, like click here for an update, and 230 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: it would just be like and it would just be 231 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: it would just take you to that picture. But it 232 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: was then it was um people got really creative and 233 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: like inserted him into like scenarios, just like they did 234 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: with Bernie. Obviously that one was the not safe for 235 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: a work version, and the Bernie is very wholesome. This 236 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: is like, I mean, talk about acting casual. If you 237 00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 1: ever see that picture you're like, oh, yeah, are is shocking? 238 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: Then all I can think when I look at it 239 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: is like, oh my god, painful. Where where does that? 240 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: It doesn't even fit in pants? Who is that guy 241 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: have sex with? I don't know who is she? I 242 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: need to talk to her because I am so confused 243 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 1: how that worked. Yeah, I mean for that a blowjob 244 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: literally is blowing on it. Oh, i mean you're like 245 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: testing a tip if you're lucky, it's insane. But also yeah, 246 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: I mean like I honestly felt like it was a 247 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: burden for him. It probably was. I don't know what 248 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: if do we know what happened to him. I'm not 249 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 1: sure how he died. Um, but if there is a 250 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: story on Vice, because when it like started to blow up, 251 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: Vice like started digging to figure out who he was 252 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: and what his history was. So there's I think there's 253 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,839 Speaker 1: a couple of articles that I've read on Vice, but 254 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's said. If either of them 255 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: said how he died, well I might have just been like, well, 256 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: I was going to try to make it too. I 257 00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe maybe I'll try to edit myself a 258 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: little bit. But yeah, like that picture in and of 259 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: itself was a lot and it's limp is being honest, 260 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 1: like what it's like a football He's he's a show 261 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 1: or not a grower though probably yeah, I may We're 262 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: really good just thinking a lot this right, Let's get 263 00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: back to well, yeah, everyone's like having to pull over 264 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: on there where to work on Friday?

Hopefully at this point 267 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: people know not to do at casual with their kids. 268 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: But anyway, I think the Bernie meme was so well 269 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: handled and it was the best description of an at 270 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: casual moment because you just like what else are you 271 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: going to leave in? And you just embrace it and 272 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: you use it for good. Like that is literally the 273 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 1: definition of acting casual. Yeah, I think about like random 274 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: people like obviously Bernie Sanders was famous before that happened, 275 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: but like you know, there are there are like everyday 276 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: people who end up in memes. They get passed around 277 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: like and the thing is is, like my advice would 278 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: be like laugh about it, Like so what you got labeled? 279 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: A Karen?

Yeah? Probably, But but if it is, 284 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: if it's something that's like not related at all to 285 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: what the picture is, and it becomes a funny meme, 286 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: like lead into it, like I have a friend, we 287 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: have a friend um or I have a friend um 288 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: who she and her brother like if you google like 289 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: ugly family photos, she and her brother, she and her 290 00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: brother or one of them, and she thinks it's when 291 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: they were little too.

Um, 331 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,919 Speaker 1: And then he texted me today this video that I 332 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 1: said to you, and it was so good in some 333 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: way that I kind of felt like this was acting casual. 334 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: He got caught in another one and he just decided 335 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 1: he would join. Yeah. He was like, you can't hold 336 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 1: me back. He threw those flashes on and got and 337 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 1: fell in line. Yeah, and he was actually thrilled about it. 338 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: He was like, we don't have to stop at stop signs. 339 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: And I mean, as I'm saying this, I'm kind of like, 340 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 1: I hope that people can like laugh about this with 341 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: us and not feel like we're paying any disrespect to 342 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: the families or anyone who's passed away. That is my 343 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: argument to him was, just like pay respect. These people 344 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 1: have lost someone they like. In fact, I think you 345 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: said he's fucking with karma. I did. I told him. 346 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: I was like, you're going to get some bad, fucking 347 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: karma goodness. But yeah, like that's the whole point. It's like, look, 348 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: we've all gotten stuck at a stop sign where you know, 349 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,959 Speaker 1: there's this long line of cars. We're in a hurry. 350 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: He lives in a he lives in Nashville, but it's 351 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: a little rural. He lives a little outside of town, 352 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: and so I can imagine it's he doesn't have many 353 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: options for roads when he's trying to go. So when 354 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: you get stuck at a stop sign and there's a 355 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: funeral procession, it's like being stopped at a railroad when 356 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: you have no idea when the train's gonna end. Yes, 357 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: so if you can fall in line, fall in line, 358 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: like and then he like felt happy about it. It 359 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I'm going to support this family. 360 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ride it out with them, and I'm going 361 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: to skip the stop signs. That's would have been if 362 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 1: he had ended up at the funeral like consoling somebody. 363 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's like it's, yeah, I hope 364 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: we don't sound insensitive. This is the one thing because 365 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, I do have this high level 366 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 1: of empathy, and especially with death, I have a really 367 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: hard time. Like I've always felt this way, even if 368 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: it's like people in my peripheral that die, like for 369 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 1: some reason, it's death is super difficult for me. So 370 00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: like that was my point to him, was like, be 371 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: fucking sensitive, dude, Like what the fun He's going for 372 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: a laugh? Too? Was he goes extreme for a laugh? 373 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: But also I think the point for him was is 374 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: why is this the tradition? Like why do we do it? 375 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: So I actually googled that. I was like, why is 376 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: this the thing? And it's the reason that people move 377 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: slowly in a procession is so they don't lose other 378 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: people in the party. And so you're following the hearse 379 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: because you're normally, yeah, you're following the hearse. You're you're 380 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: going generally from the church to the site and a 381 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of people, you know, you theoretically 382 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: people would be from out of town. They don't know 383 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: where they are, so you're trying not to lose people. 384 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: That's why you put the flashers on. That's why you're 385 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: like there's usually cop at the front and the back 386 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: to right right. And I think that was his point, 387 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: was like why did they get this like entitlement to 388 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 1: the road basically? And I'm like, because these people are mourning, 389 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: you know, like they're going through this really hard time. 390 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: What in your day is more important than that if 391 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 1: you really think about it. But so that was sort 392 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: of when he embraces He's like Berry's motherfucking boot camp 393 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 1: classes late, he did take a step back and he 394 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: was like, you're right, like, these people went through a 395 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: really difficult time and I need to think about that 396 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 1: versus like what I need to do in my day. 397 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: But it is a frustrating tradition. And so today to 398 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,479 Speaker 1: casual and just joined it them. I was like, all right, 399 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: imagine if he calls an accident trying to merge, Oh 400 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 1: my god, I can't. I mean, actually I can. And 401 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: you would have called me to bail him out, is 402 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: the thing. He actually I told him we were going 403 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: to talk about this today. I was like, you just 404 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: gave me my topic where today and he was like, 405 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: you can use my real name, and I decided not, 406 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: so we won't. We won't do that. He gives us 407 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: too much content already. I mean, honestly, he's he's been 408 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: the he's been the guest on the show probably five 409 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: or six times without anyway, those are at casual moments 410 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: of the week. I mean, I actually feel like I've 411 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: probably had a couple of other but like some of 412 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 1: them or maybe not things I would want to share. 413 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: I mean I've literally just been at home, so I 414 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: know your life sounds a little like tame right now. Yeah, well, 415 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: God give me that vaccine. I'll suck anybody. Oh you 416 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,640 Speaker 1: people heard it here first? Who out there? Also, you're 417 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 1: looking really good these days. That palets on at keyto. 418 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 1: I've been doing that keyto. I am been in ketos 419 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: is not for two weeks of all seventeen pounds since 420 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: January four. It's crazy. It's just my body eating itself. Basically. 421 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: Ketosis is like I'm not I haven't had any carbohydrates, 422 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: so my body is using my fat for fuel. Okay, 423 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: so that's how you lose weight? Yeah? Crazy, Yeah, So 424 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: it's your body does this like flip thing where it stops. 425 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: It doesn't have carbohydrates to feed off, so it feeds 426 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: off the fat. Oh my god. It's pretty incredible. And 427 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: I mean i've been I had there was a there 428 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: was a COVID scare, so I was I've been around 429 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: somebody who tested positive. So I isolated and so I 430 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: was just like, I'm going to hunker down and do this. 431 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,360 Speaker 1: So for the last two weeks i've been. It's been 432 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: and I've got these p strips that showed me that 433 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm in qutosis And really, are you laying off booze? 434 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: That's the thing. Um. This is probably the first drink 435 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: i've had in two weeks because I mean I've just 436 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 1: been I don't really drink at home. I don't really 437 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 1: drink at home by myself either, Yeah I don't. I 438 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 1: mean it's I've never really been much of a drinker 439 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: at home. When I lived in l A the first year, Um, 440 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: I lived with two friends, and um, only one of 441 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,360 Speaker 1: them had a job, Like I didn't have a job 442 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: when I got there. And so we were like and 443 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 1: and Trader Joe's was new to us, so we like 444 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 1: when we moved into the house that we runt it. It 445 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: It had a wine rack that was the size of 446 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: the whole the back wall of the closet. So we 447 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: went to two and got enough Tuo buck chuck to 448 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: fill it. So we were like drinking every day at home. 449 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: And um, and I think that was like I don't 450 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 1: need to be doing this. But that's different when you 451 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: live with people. If you're by yourself drinking, it can 452 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: get kind of dark. Yeah, I mean there it is 453 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: a very I've got beers in my fridge, like, but 454 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: I never think like, oh I need a beer at 455 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: the end of the day, or I literally only have 456 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: alcohol and hamas in my refrigerator. We know this, yeah, 457 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: but when I'm by myself at my house, it doesn't 458 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: like it does everyone crosses my mind if it really doesn't. 459 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,719 Speaker 1: Maybe if it's a Friday and I'm like, you know what, 460 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: I have had a week. I'm gonna have a beer 461 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: and it's one, but if I have friends over, I 462 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: will drink four beers. You know, we're not trying to act, 463 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: but I'm like sipping and my parents, like they drink 464 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: every night they have they start having well I mean 465 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: now like but now it's even worse because they're retired, 466 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: so my dad has like a bloody Mary at breakfast. 467 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: They don't have responsive they don't have responsibilities. But when 468 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: they when I was younger and they were like working people, 469 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: they would come home and pour cocktails and they would 470 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: drink three or four cocktails at and it was just 471 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 1: kind of so I grew up around that and it 472 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: wasn't like I never for a second thought my parents 473 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: are raging alcoholics. So it's like, I don't know, it's 474 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: not I'm not my way because I experienced something where 475 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't want to turn into that 476 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: because my parents are really fun, but yeah, I don't know, 477 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: it just never really appealed to me, I think as 478 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: long as you feel like you're doing. I don't know 479 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: how we got on this topic. This cut like we 480 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: were drinking. We are drinking. It is such a weird 481 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: balance because I always try to balance too between like 482 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: like what is enough? What is like what is too much? 483 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: It's like it's it's a weird thing, and like I've 484 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,959 Speaker 1: never really known a healthy relationship with that, and so 485 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 1: like trying to navigate that myself has been something I've 486 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: done as an adult. But what's funny because I've never 487 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: worried about like what's too much? Like I am like 488 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: i'd go full, and I just I just don't. It 489 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 1: just doesn't cross my mind. Oh, I know how we 490 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: got on to it. You asked me if I was 491 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: laying off the booze, because to me, when a lay 492 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: off the booze, immediately my stomach gets flat, like it's like, oh, 493 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: that's what that little poof was or something. Yeah, but 494 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: it's like because like sometimes you just have a glass 495 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 1: of on with dinner, but like you don't realize, oh, 496 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: that's extra calories or that's actually the worst worst. I 497 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: actually have some emails I want to read through you 498 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: because we've gotten We've got a lot, but these I 499 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: picked the top. Well, I think maybe I'll just do too, 500 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: because we've kind of gone a little longer than I thought. 501 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: But um, this came from Erica, who we actually talked 502 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: to last week or maybe this is two weeks ago. 503 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 1: We talked about her and she was having the trouble 504 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: with her HR manager. Do you remember this? Okay? So 505 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: she wrote back because she listened to the episode where 506 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 1: we did talk to her, and she said, hey, friends, 507 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: thanks for reading my email on the podcast. I'm following 508 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: up to let you know I appreciate your advice on it. 509 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 1: I just wanted to say that when HR said those 510 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: uncomfortable things, my supervisor was there and she was able 511 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: to take it to our manager, who was able to 512 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 1: address it so that the employees didn't have to because 513 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: I remember we were like, Erica, you need to just 514 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: address yeah, So she didn't have to, which I actually 515 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: loved for her because that's such an uncomfortable situation. She said, 516 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: I have to say, I'm also an impath, and I 517 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: take things to heart quite easily. This woman also told 518 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: a black man who doesn't work for the company anymore 519 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: that her fiance is a cop, which she thought was 520 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 1: a threat because it was during the summer as well. 521 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: She also basically told me my engagement ring was ugly, 522 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 1: so that I responded, it's the ring my fiance gave 523 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 1: me and for that, I absolutely love it, which I 524 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: agree with Erica here, trying to be so sounds like 525 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: an idiot, just sounds like a bit. Yeah, I definitely 526 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: don't want to cancel her per se, but sometimes I 527 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: feel the need to distance myself to protect my feelings. 528 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: I'm also a tourist of the stubborn trait and me 529 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: can be aggressive of I've been working on extending grace 530 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: to people I don't agree with on things that includes 531 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,479 Speaker 1: people who may hurt me. Your advice made me realize 532 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: I need to start advocating for myself and feeling more 533 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 1: even if it's uncomfortable and awkward. Love the podcast and 534 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,919 Speaker 1: thanks thanks for being the friends I look forward to 535 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: hearing from every Friday. Erica also she sent a picture 536 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: of her and her fiance and they're beautiful, like insanely gorgeous. 537 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: It looks like an ad from a magazine. But um, anyway, 538 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 1: so I'm just glad that she didn't have to handle 539 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: that herself. And I also just think this lady needs 540 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: to go. Yeah, why is she the HR person? I 541 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: can't process sup at work? The person she's actually kind 542 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: of a great character for a movie, Like, Yeah, it's 543 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: like the HR person who just sucks everything up would 544 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: happened on the office. The person who is not supposed 545 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,239 Speaker 1: to be in that job is in that job, And 546 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: that kind of sounds like this person to me, like 547 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: she should not be in this job. It's not the 548 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: right job they should. Like, how can you like funk 549 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: over an HR person really well at work? Like? How 550 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: can you make her mess up her job so bad? 551 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: I don't think you have to make her messian that's 552 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: a point. I think you would just have to report her. 553 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 1: But to me, I'm like, Erica, you just put your 554 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 1: head down into your work and keep doing you boo 555 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: because you look so beautiful and so happy, and don't 556 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: worry about this bitch by give me my insurance. Okay, 557 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: So this one she wants to remain anonymous, although this 558 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: was hilarious to me. She wouldn't sign the email even 559 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: though it comes. But I'm like, oh, sweetie, your email 560 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: says your day. But I respect her signed unsigned, she 561 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: said I I, she said, I can't think of a 562 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: fun name about lying, but I don't want to use 563 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: my real name. Baha ha ha ha. The struggle it's real. 564 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 1: And I was like, but I know your name, Karen, 565 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: just kidding. It's not Karen, um No, I know anonymous. Yeah, Annie, 566 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: I like it, um No, But I love her emails, 567 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: so we're gonna read that. Hey, Kelly and Chip, longtime listener, 568 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 1: first time writer here. I love listening to your podcast 569 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,479 Speaker 1: because it feels like I'm just shooting the ship with friends. 570 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: It also makes me laugh on my walks with my dogs, 571 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: so I'm pretty sure my neighbors think I'm insane. Thanks 572 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: for all the good times. I'm hoping you can weigh 573 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: in on a situation I've been dealing with for a 574 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: very long time. I'm a mid thirties doctor and I 575 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 1: met one of my best friends in med school. You 576 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: go through the trenches together in med school and your 577 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: other trenches, so you're really forming lasting friendships. My best 578 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: friend has always been known in our very long large 579 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: friend group as the one downer that's in air quotes, 580 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: if life, I'm sorry in lie. If there are people 581 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: who like to one up you. But in the medical 582 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: training there are one downers, and these are the people 583 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: who constantly tell you how much harder they have it 584 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,239 Speaker 1: than everyone else. We've been friends for eight years, so 585 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: at this point I've accepted that she's a one downer. 586 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: Her schedule is always the hardest, she works the most. 587 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: Also in quotes, her patients are the sickest. Also in quote. 588 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 1: I saw this trend as we continue our medical training, 589 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: during residency, fellowship, and now being attendings I'm recently, I've 590 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: recently come to realize these people need to know that 591 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: I'm drinking. This is too hard Annie Um. I've recently 592 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: come to realize that she is blatantly lying about how 593 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: often she works. For example, a few weeks ago back, 594 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: she told me she was working at the hospital all weekend. 595 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 1: When she told our other friend, who lives out of town, 596 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: she was off, she told me she didn't have one 597 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: day for three weeks, which wasn't true. My other friend 598 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: confirmed it. Now I've noticed that she'll complain about how patients, 599 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: how many patients she sees in a clinic, so I 600 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: got curious and I checked her schedule. Anyone in the 601 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 1: system can look at that low and behold she's lying 602 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 1: about that. She will exaggerate about how many patients she 603 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: sees by at least two or more patients a day, 604 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: and how late they're scheduled. This is so strange to me, 605 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: because who the funk cares exactly? I don't care if 606 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: she works more than me or if she works less 607 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 1: than me. I just don't like being lied to you 608 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: by someone I trust. We are in completely different specialties 609 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: or our jobs don't resemble each other. I purposely choose 610 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: chose a specialty with decent work life balance, and she 611 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: chose one that's notorious for poor life balance. Mostly just 612 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,520 Speaker 1: thorough training. I'm happy with my choices, and I don't 613 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: feel bad about it. I still end up working very hard, 614 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: and I'm proud of that. My questions for you one, 615 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: why do you think she's doing this too? What are 616 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: your thoughts about the white lies? Three? I'm very non confrontational, 617 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 1: so I don't want to say anything to her, but 618 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: would you? Four? Annie, I'm tired. Can you be friends 619 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: with someone who is constantly telling you white lies? Or 620 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 1: is that the harbinger? Do you know what that means? Harbinger? 621 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 1: What does that mean? How does she finish it for 622 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: something worse. Yeah, it's like a sign it's good. M 623 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: this is why. That's a harbinger of something. Yeah, here's 624 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: my thought. She lying about more serious things. PS. I 625 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: know this sounds like sixteen year old drama, but I'm 626 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: pretty shocked by how many things I've noticed recently that 627 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,239 Speaker 1: she's purposely lying about. Thanks for your help, sincerely, I 628 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: can't think of fun name, but I'm lying about my 629 00:33:54,640 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 1: real name, Annie um any. Yeah, you know. Here's the thing. 630 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: It's like the funny thing is is like everything that 631 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: she's lying about is misery. So it's like she's taking 632 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: she finds pleasure in her situation being worse than everyone else. 633 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: I wonder if it's like And obviously we don't know 634 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: any of these people, so there's so many circumstances in 635 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: the situation that we just don't know. But like, is 636 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,879 Speaker 1: she the only single one? Is she? Like? Are there 637 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: reasons for her to amplify like why her life is worse? Look, 638 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 1: we we know people like this, my eyes, we know 639 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: people like this, and we also know people like this 640 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: whose situation isn't nearly as terrible as they want the 641 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 1: world to think it is. And I think it's a weird, 642 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 1: sort of outwardly form of self pity. Um. And the 643 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: truth is is like Anni lated out, she chose this 644 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: line of specialty. Like the bed that she is in 645 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: she made. So why is it everyone else's responsibility to 646 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: make it better? It's not. It's not. And first of all, 647 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,799 Speaker 1: like nobody wants to be around somebody who's complaining all 648 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 1: the time. It's just not a good characteristic. Well also, 649 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: it's not a competition about your life is worse than mine, Like, 650 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: it's just not. And like there's some stuff that I think, Uh, 651 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 1: I have a couple of things in my mind, all right, well, 652 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: because there was there was something that publicly was said 653 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: about me about that and that's not true for me. 654 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 1: It's just not so I mean that was I'm struggling here, 655 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 1: help me get out of this situation. I just like 656 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,280 Speaker 1: it's like I think that certain people can be very insensitive, 657 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 1: and so obviously those are not people you want your 658 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: life either. But it doesn't sound like our friend Annie 659 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 1: air quotes is like that. It sounds like she actually 660 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 1: wants to be a good friend to people. And I 661 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: think that what I hear in this is just like 662 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 1: why are you friends with this person? Like? What is 663 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 1: she bringing to your life? Like that That's the thing 664 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,439 Speaker 1: that we've had to think about about some situations we've 665 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: been in and now, like I just like I don't understand, 666 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: like she's lying to you, She's things that don't matter matter, 667 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: But like, so like why is this a relationship you're 668 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: continuing to pursue. What it sounds like to me is 669 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 1: that the friend is not very mature. Because if you're 670 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: telling one person you're working, and you're telling someone else 671 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: that you're not, you're telling the person that you're working 672 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: for a reason because you don't want to do what 673 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: they're asking you to do. There's something you say, thank 674 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 1: you for the invite, but I don't really feel like 675 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 1: doing that this weekend. But you also, like as an adult, 676 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,800 Speaker 1: would know how to set the boundaries so that you 677 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 1: can take care of yourself. You don't have to lie, right, Yeah, 678 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: So I mean I think it's I think the conundrum 679 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: that Annie is in. You either have to address it, 680 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: and I think there's non confrontational ways to address it 681 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: if you want this person to stay in your life, 682 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: or you have to recognize that this person is a liar. 683 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:17,839 Speaker 1: And those sorts of things do sort of snowball, like 684 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 1: if she's willing to lie about stupid shit, Like I 685 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,280 Speaker 1: have more patients a day than you. You don't understand 686 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: how hard my day is. Like everybody's day is hard, 687 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: and it's all relative in there is not one person 688 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: a relative and be like, my life is harder than 689 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: your everyone's life is collectively hard. That is what the 690 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: universe is teaching us right now, is that everyone has 691 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:46,280 Speaker 1: their own ship. I just believe that so but it's snowballs. 692 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,959 Speaker 1: And I think that people who are inherent liars, like 693 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: when they get away with it, it is fuel for 694 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: them to lie about bigger and bigger things, and that 695 00:37:56,320 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 1: you know, it breaks down trust. It's just I'm like, 696 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: I don't want relationships with liars, Like at this point 697 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 1: in my life, I'm making conscious decisions about who I 698 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: allow in my life, and like I don't know who 699 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,840 Speaker 1: it annie is, but I'm just kind of I'm in 700 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: my mid thirties at this point. Shouldn't you just be like, hey, 701 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 1: not worth my fucking time, man, Like you can't tell 702 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 1: me the truth, You can't just like have any sort 703 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: of empathy for anyone else. It's all about you all 704 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: the time. You're not going to get what are you 705 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: getting from this relationship? That's what I just would want 706 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: to know. It's like when you have a history with somebody, though, 707 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: it's hard to sort of just like toss people aside, 708 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 1: especially if they're still in your life, you know. Like 709 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: I mean, for me, some of my best friends who 710 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: from college like that are still some of them. I 711 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: would consider them some of my best friends, but I 712 00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: don't talk to them every day, like, so I don't 713 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: have that same sort of attachment because it sounds like 714 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: they're still in each other's lives. Do sound like in 715 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,399 Speaker 1: a major way, but if you have to see each 716 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: other a lot, I just I guess I'm just very 717 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: guarded of my energy as of late, and so I'm 718 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 1: reading this and I'm like, I don't know. I'm also confrontational, 719 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 1: like if I have an issue, I'm going to address it. 720 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 1: So I am having a harder time relating. However, I 721 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 1: can empathize and and say like, yeah, you've been through 722 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 1: a lot together. But like I think when you get 723 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: to your mid thirties, especially as the point in your 724 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: life where you ask yourself, what is this person giving me? 725 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: What are they bringing to my life that's positive? And 726 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: if they're not, who has space for that anymore? Well? 727 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 1: And I also think if if it has gotten to 728 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: the point where you and you're going on whatever data 729 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 1: system your office has to be like wait a minute, no, 730 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 1: she wasn't working that day. And these are the number 731 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,839 Speaker 1: of patients like you have been pushed to the point 732 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:53,799 Speaker 1: where you're investigating. You're wasting your time on someone who, 733 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 1: like it, probably isn't giving a second thought to you. 734 00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: Which that is where like I would say to any 735 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 1: protect your energy and put it into something positive, or 736 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 1: you care enough you have to address it, or yes, exactly, 737 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 1: it's one of the two things. Put your put your 738 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 1: energy into something other relationships that are more positive and 739 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: fulfilling for you, or address it with her. And I mean, 740 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: I don't think this girl sounds like she could handle 741 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: being confronted, but see how it goes. Maybe she could 742 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: respond and like make some changes. Maybe she's unaware. You 743 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: could also have some fun with it. You could just 744 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 1: be like you could like play the let's see if 745 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: she'll one up everybody and like everyone come with like 746 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: a you won't believe what happened today, Like you just 747 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 1: have to like see if she'll be like, well I 748 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 1: had you know, it's so crazy because I had fifty 749 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: and it was in and then the other person is like, yeah, 750 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: I had sixty two, and then you're like yeah, and 751 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,720 Speaker 1: then someone's like, bitch, you weren't even at work today, 752 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 1: like you you forgot, but I checked her schedule. You 753 00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: didn't go to work. I saw you at Walmart at 754 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 1: three o'clock and you didn't see him. Sure, Walmart downtime shoplifting, 755 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:15,200 Speaker 1: for sure. She has so much money, but she shot 756 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: because her life is hard and she needs it. She's like, 757 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 1: I deserve this. I deserve these panties. I mean I 758 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 1: just hands panties.

I worked overtime just to have 762 00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 1: more patience. So I deserve these panties. Yeah, they free 763 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: paint her.
