Speaker 1: Hey, this is Andy and Samantha, and welcome to stuff

3
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,960

4
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: watch along with Sminty. Yeah, it's I think it's beloved.

5
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: Now we've gotten enough responsors that they're like, keep it up,

6
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: except for one person was like, no, stop it, but

7
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 1: we're not gonna. But we're not gonna because we love it.

8
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: So it's coming straight from my couch in our living room,

9
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: my living room because we are together sipping on some

10
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: delightful what I have called a BlackBerry moss cheers cheers

11
00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: because I don't have orange joese, but I do have blackberries.

12
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: So I muddled it up with some lemon agave and

13
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: then I added it at the bottom as a syrup,

14
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: and then poured some champagne on it or prosecco specifically here,

15
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: and then because I'm fancy, I added some blackberries and

16
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: a pine berry, which I discovered is a thing which

17
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: is a pineapple strawberry mix. Yes, well, we're gonna have

18
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: to do some further research because we've tried them, we've

19
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: expressed our thoughts about them together, but we don't really

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: know what's what's going on? We don't know what the

21
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: deal with the blind berries? Okay, yeah, that was my

22
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: bad impression. You're welcome. Yes, I said, uh, this is

23
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: gonna link to a Saver episode. Yeah, yeah, I hope, so,

24
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 1: I hope, so I hope to look into this. Yes

25
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: you should because it's interesting. But anyway, so cheers, cheers

26
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 1: to our segment for Happy Hour where we watch Sex

27
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: in the City, discuss and then discuss more. Yes, yes

28
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: we do, and as always, drink responsibility you're choosing to

29
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: do so, and if you're unaware, if you're somehow coming

30
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: in on this on the ninth episode, which I believe

31
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: we're on the ninth episode doing this. I have never

32
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: seen Sex in the City the TV show, the original

33
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: TV show, so this is my first time. Um, and

34
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: we just have conversations about what comes up, reactions, thoughts, yes,

35
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: and experiences based on what we see on Sex in

36
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: the City, which is fairly relatable. However, before we start,

37
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: because we love to do this, any can you give

38
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: us a rundown of where we are? Yes, I feel

39
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: like I always say the same thing, but many conversations

40
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: have been had about single hood and marriage and dating

41
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: twenty year olds and uh, the female body and being like,

42
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: what's the word for that when someone is trying to

43
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 1: hide your relationship to sex? Was the title secret Sex.

44
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: We've been introduced to big, the big love interest for

45
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: Carrie um Skipper, the kind of love interest for Miranda

46
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: shown up a few times and really did did the

47
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: last girl he was with? Thirty of my opinion? And yeah,

48
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: and we've had a lot of conversations around anal sex

49
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: and oral sex and discussions discussions around it. We've got

50
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: we've got some good conversations. Uh. And as per usual,

51
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: at the beginning, I tell any the title, I think

52
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: you wanna have a hard time with this one, okay, Uh,

53
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: And then we predict to see what she knows what

54
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: this episode is about. And then I give our points

55
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 1: based on no system that I just create perfect. Yes,

56
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: here we go. So the title of this one is

57
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: the Turtle and the Hair. Okay. So I think that

58
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: this one would be a sort of a strategy question

59
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: on is it better to like play hard to get

60
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: and wait for the relationship and for the viewpoint of

61
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,840
Speaker 1: the mail And I'm assuming this very heterosis, uh, autonormatives

62
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: this relationship or should you just go for it if

63
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: you want it, just go for it, or do you

64
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: strategize and like plant it out, go slow? Interesting, that

65
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: sounds like I got zero. Okay, So we are going

66
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: to start and we'll see episode nine Turtle and the Hair.

67
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: Here we go. Was I the only one who remembered

68
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: that Brooke once described this man as more boring than

69
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: exposed brick. Oh? Yes, yes, more boring than exposed brick.

70
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: So we're at this popular girl's wedding and it's a

71
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: big affair. Oh, this is what I've talked about this

72
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: line before because by the way, we're about to come

73
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: up on but she is married to a not so

74
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: typical handsome New York guy. He's kind of a bald,

75
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: m goofy looking guy. I guess it seems boring. They

76
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 1: looked like the witches of East Wikas. That was a

77
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: line that's talking about. So we have the four ladies here,

78
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 1: all dressed in blackwood, amazing feathers in her hair. I

79
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: love that. I wore black to a wedding once and

80
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: I got a lot of comments like are you going

81
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: to a funeral? Or they thought I was a bartender

82
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,279
Speaker 1: and I got paid money. So that was something. Typically

83
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 1: I always went black. Yeah, I mean, I don't see

84
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: the problem. I think this dude is titled the Turtle.

85
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: I think good investments, bad breath. Who was hitting on

86
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: Samantha and she runs away? Your friend is gorgeous? What

87
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: do I have to do to get to know where better? Now?

88
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 1: That's a weird thing, too, is I have been to

89
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 1: weddings where I've been hit on. It's I guess it

90
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: puts people in the mood like I gotta find somebody.

91
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know if I've ever have I been

92
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: hit on? The thing is I've gone two weddings with

93
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: the friends who I pretty much knew the entirety of

94
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: the crew. It's always better to marry someone who loves

95
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: you more than you love them. Okay, it's always better

96
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: to marry someone who loves you more than you love them.

97
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: Of course, Carrie must put that in her article I

98
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: Don't Want again. I wonder if she got permission. Although

99
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: I feel the same way when I talk about my

100
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: friends are like, what the hell are you doing? I

101
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: think about that all the time, to question why do

102
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 1: people get married if they're not. We've got some big

103
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: I don't know, why do people get married if they're

104
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: not in love annie political companionship. I think you feel

105
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: pressure time pressure, Like I guess I'm not going to

106
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: do any better money financially, I think I could see. Yeah, yeah,

107
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,919
Speaker 1: I think it can be kind of a economical judgment.

108
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: I will say so, like I've been in a relationship

109
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: for a little while, and at this age, at forty

110
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: forty one, forty five, I don't know. I do question

111
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: like should I want to be married? And I know

112
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 1: I've talked about this before, and like feeling like I should,

113
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: But at the same time, there's no desire in me

114
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: to want to be married, And I feel like if

115
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: I feel this way at forty one, why would I

116
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: feel any differently later? So there's like a lot of

117
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: conversation in my head, like why do we do it? Yeah? Yeah,

118
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: And I think I told this story before, but I

119
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: wanted to get married just for my like parents, and

120
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,679
Speaker 1: I was literally thinking, I'll just settle. What's wrong with settling?

121
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: And then that makes me very sad. Now I was

122
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: convinced I have to do it by this age, but

123
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: also like that sucks for the other persons such a

124
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: terrible like settle, because when you figure out, finally figure out,

125
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 1: oh I didn't want to be married, I don't have

126
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: to be married, and then it becomes a whole thing,

127
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: because let's be honest, I definitely have family in my

128
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: life who got married really young. I think that's what

129
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: they wanted, had the fantasy wedding, and then five to

130
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: ten years later they're like, what the hell did I do?

131
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: We're completely different people, Which is the thing is like,

132
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: if you can't grow together, you're gonna grow apart, obviously,

133
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: and you're going to compromise. Um. And it's just a

134
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: question about how much you're willing to compromise. Are you

135
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: growing together or are you just tired and it's over

136
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 1: or you know that's of course, this is putting this

137
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: in a very like normative way in that we know

138
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: there's bigger pictures and bigger we're not going to go

139
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 1: into all of that that you need to get out,

140
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 1: need to get out. It's toxic vibrators and send you

141
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 1: flowers the next day and you cannot, Oh, this is it,

142
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: This is it. So I'm so sorry all got excited

143
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: because the women are at the table discussing about marriage

144
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: and what it's building up to and Miranda is talking

145
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 1: about her vibrator and how much she loves her vibrator

146
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: and talking about having orgasms. Here we go. I'm so

147
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: excited for this episode the Rabbit. We have the introduction

148
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: of the Rabbit, which my gosh, y'all I bought into

149
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,439
Speaker 1: this too, and I think I was like fantastic three

150
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 1: or four or five years late into this episode, I

151
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: was like, does the rabbit exist still? And y'all it

152
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: does and it's expensive. Yeah. They got a lot of

153
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 1: publicity off of this. Pink for Girls is squeaks. Oh

154
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: my god, I realized the five writers squeaked. I like

155
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: how Charlotte got so excited, like, oh, it's pink for

156
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 1: girls back at the Briar Patch. Wow, some of them

157
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: can quite I don't think I would have been ready

158
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: for that had I been able to afford it. I

159
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: will never forget when I bought my first one and

160
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: that guy that I bought it from like showed it

161
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: to me to make like see it works, and I,

162
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: like my face went nuclear red. I was so embarrassed.

163
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: Got someone gave me my first one because I was

164
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 1: so embarrassed, and then I started ordering them online. The

165
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: best way to go for me, you know, for a

166
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: longer life. Well, with breath like that, you're going to

167
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: live a very long life alone. I killed the last

168
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: one when I've talked to me like that. That is

169
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: not funny. We talked about that. So she found him

170
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 1: cute after he attempted a joke, and the joke is

171
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: I killed the last woman that talked to me like that.

172
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 1: Wait what I mean if we were watching a different

173
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: show and he made watch Fresh last night, that's where

174
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: she's coming in from. I think he's a cute little

175
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 1: fixer rapper, sweetheart. He's a man, not a brown Stone.

176
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: When I'm through with him, Okay, Grassy Mansion, Samantha and

177
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: the turtle, So Samanica is gonna make up the turtle.

178
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: Have you ever taken a man or taken a partner

179
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: in general and tried to fix them like that aesthetically?

180
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: Aesthetically no, but I've definitely wish for some things to

181
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: be different and maybe made some comments. But no, you know,

182
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: I think I was lucky that I had enough good

183
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: friends who were like, don't go into a relationship trying

184
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: to fix somebody as a still shortkir I don't abide

185
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 1: with that. But okay, and I'm just playing. Just as

186
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: I had reached the moment of no thought, I think

187
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 1: I broke my batilla. Oh sorry, am I polling to

188
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: metaphorical immy. You just says she broke her vagina with

189
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 1: the rabbit. And they're stretching and I love that care.

190
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: He's like, I'm sorry, I must stretching too hard. I'm

191
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: stretching you too hard. Now she's like, I'll never have

192
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,959
Speaker 1: sex with the man. I've definitely made a boyfriend be like,

193
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: I think you're vibrator. I think he was a little nervous. Yeah,

194
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: it's got batteries, dude. Yeah. I mean like, I've had

195
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,439
Speaker 1: some who get nervous, but I've had partners who are like,

196
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: let's add it, and I'm like, oh, you're back offident,

197
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: let's go, let's go. I have hurt myself masturbating before.

198
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: I believe that. I believe this for so many reasons.

199
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: And I'm not going to talk about the many reasons.

200
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: But maybe you should propose to me and we'll all

201
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: live happily ever after you really do want it all.

202
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe nobody gets it all. Oh so,

203
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: now they're trying to do a conversation. So Stanford's rich

204
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,560
Speaker 1: friend grandmother gives people money when they get married, which

205
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 1: I've seen. This is the whole conversation I want to

206
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: come back to because since we are not necessarily about marriage,

207
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: and how many people have I given presents to to

208
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: their wedding, to their marriage, spent money on all these

209
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: things and I'm not gonna get that. I'm a little

210
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 1: bit about this. We can have Samantha ceremony if I

211
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: do buy a house, which I'm thinking about. Um, we're

212
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: having a housewarman, y'all bring me presents like you're threatening me.

213
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 1: I'm learning everyone list the listeners because I love you

214
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 1: all too much. I'll give me enough to my friends

215
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: that I know personally and have given gifts to. They

216
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: best be bringing some good stuff. Very pointed, All right,

217
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: and none of my friends listen to this. I'll pass

218
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:48,479
Speaker 1: on the message. But in that they're scheming now Stanford

219
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: and carry and pretending to be married because Biggest saying

220
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 1: that he's never wants to get married again because he

221
00:13:53,240 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: got through a really rocky divorce. I'm really sorry, but

222
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to cancel and totally wiped out. Uh

223
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: huh wiped out. That was Charlotte speak for I'm spending

224
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: the night with my vibrator. Have you canceled plans for

225
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: master beating? No, but I'm definitely like I've had it

226
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: on my schedule of my head, I'm going to do

227
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: it at this time. But I've never canceled plans. I

228
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: might do it right before and be a little late.

229
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: So here we go. We have an intervention trying to

230
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: find the vibrator. Like a drug, you get the rabbit

231
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: behind a stuffed rabbit, the rabbit behind the stuff rabbit.

232
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: But she's never handling it. They're handling it all right.

233
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: I know, I'm screaming. I'm so sorry. Why would you

234
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: touch someone else's six toy? I would not ever, I

235
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: would not know here yep. And they are so blase

236
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: and touching it. And I know this is supposed to

237
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: be TV, but literally, even if she did clean it,

238
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: I would still not want to touch it. And also,

239
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: there's like a way if you have to touch it,

240
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: there's a way you could touch it less worse. Yeah,

241
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: put it in the bag. I'm not touching it. So

242
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: if she wants to cancel plans for the vibrator, let her,

243
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: especially in early she's in early days, like eventually, you know,

244
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: like anything she chooses, be wanting to choose to be married,

245
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: like being focused so harshly on that and do cal

246
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: plans for vibrator let her I'm okay with that. Oh wow,

247
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: is this you not a bad looking gil? Don't you think?

248
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: I love that? So the grandmother is talking about giving

249
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: up her career who she knew? Couple of chanel, I

250
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: got all these suits for children, and that's fine if

251
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: she's happy for that. I think it's okay to settle

252
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: if you're both on the same page of settling, right,

253
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 1: Like if you if you're happy with that. Yeah, it

254
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: just sounds so negative settling, right, it does. And that's

255
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: the thing is, like, again, what is the compromise level

256
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: to you? Um, my parents, I don't think they settled.

257
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: They got pushed pretty quickly and they found happiness in that.

258
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: And I think they truly are so happy. And my

259
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 1: mother and my father love each other dearly. They really

260
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: have a standard of marriage that I don't understand. It's

261
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,760
Speaker 1: not something I want, but they are truly happy. And

262
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: it's such a different level though, such a like my

263
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: mother wanted all these big things, but she chose this instead,

264
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 1: so it's definitely a different thing. And then like here

265
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 1: they're trying to settle for each other to get money,

266
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: and the grandmother knows he's she calls him, I'm not

267
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: saying this a fruit, And yes it's a derogatory Hell yeah,

268
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: it does. But it's interesting, like how that kind of

269
00:16:52,960 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: at least she acknowledges it. Yeah, and still loves them. Yeah. Look,

270
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: I do want to get married someday. I mean maybe

271
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: not today, but I just I don't want to. I

272
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 1: can't date somebody that won't, you know, what's the point.

273
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 1: So that's the other big question here. Is dating bad

274
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:21,719
Speaker 1: if there's not an end game? Right? That's another conversation again. Yeah,

275
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: if you're on the same page, and I don't think

276
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: that's a problem. And even sometimes like because that happened

277
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: in my last relationship where we both were on the

278
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 1: same page at first and then it changed, that's fine

279
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: as long as you're open about it. It's strange because

280
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 1: we've watched so many like Romance and Disney movies. You

281
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 1: want everybody be the happiest they can be and find

282
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:49,160
Speaker 1: that person, find their one who loves yes, jeez. Yes,

283
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: So it's weird to say like that there isn't that

284
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 1: one thing you should be fighting for, that settling should

285
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:03,680
Speaker 1: be off the table. But the real is, I don't

286
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: know how realistic that is for a lot of us, right. Well,

287
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: that's the other part is like I'm talking about the

288
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 1: fact that my relationship, we we've talked repeatedly and like

289
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,880
Speaker 1: I don't want this. Can we change our minds? Absolutely?

290
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: Do we hold to the point that we can't and

291
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: have the right to change our minds? Absolutely? But like

292
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: the fact that I had to talk to him because

293
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 1: we've been together first a few years now, and as

294
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,159
Speaker 1: I hit for it was like, I really don't want children,

295
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: So you need to tell me now that's what you want,

296
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: because that's what you want. That's beautiful. You're going to

297
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: have to go find someone else. If I do want children,

298
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: I want to adopt them. And then we've had to

299
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: have that conversation too, like do you feel comfortable with this?

300
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah, and trying to make it very real

301
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: because at one point in time, oh my god, I

302
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 1: think it's like his parents brought up something and I

303
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: was like, oh yeah, no, not happening, not happening, and

304
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: there's nothing in my life. And as one of our

305
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: listeners in an email after I had talked about you

306
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: know whether or not all of a sudden sure that

307
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: don't if you if you're not sure, don't it raise

308
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: havoc on your body is really painful. So that's not

309
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,119
Speaker 1: worth it to you. Don't do it. And I'm like,

310
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 1: thank you that that is such a realistic comment, Like

311
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 1: that's the big things, Like people who have children, that's

312
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 1: a beautiful thing. I love that for you, and I

313
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: love other people's children. I've really I've taken care of them.

314
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: I was a nanny, I was a defact worker, child

315
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: abuse investigator. So I love children. But for me, I'm

316
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: good without it. And so her comment was like, look,

317
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: these are the realities of it, and do I love

318
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 1: my kids, yes? Would I do some things different maybe,

319
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: And you just need to think about that. I'm like,

320
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: thank you. That is the realistic thing. Is like, even

321
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,719
Speaker 1: if you do have children, you can still say it

322
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 1: was rough. It was rough. And for those who who

323
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: can't have children, you know, that's a whole different conversation

324
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: in itself. So please know that that is a beautiful thing.

325
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 1: And I really understand why people go through so many things.

326
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: We talked about that with uh seegacy and all of

327
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 1: that and how it can be beautiful. We had another

328
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: listener who is a surrogate for parents and how much

329
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: he loves doing that because of the joy for the parents.

330
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 1: And I've saying that a lot, but like, yeah, these

331
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: are the choices that, these are the conversations off to

332
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: be like, hey, for me, you're gonna have to figure

333
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: this out for yourself if this is not what this is.

334
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: Do we waste our emotions and time on this is

335
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: this great for now? Yes, but are you going to

336
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 1: be better later on? I don't want that for you

337
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: or for me. Yeah. Yeah, And I think that for women,

338
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: a lot of those things have been romanticized, like motherhood

339
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 1: has in the perfect mother. We've talked about that a

340
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: million times. But like also this finding your one true person,

341
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: which again I've seen relationships that are beautiful and they're

342
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: so happy and I love that, and I guess for

343
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 1: me as an a sexual person, like my last long

344
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: term relationship, I was happy and we kind of settled right,

345
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: but I was happy, like it was like having a

346
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: good friend around stuff with all the time. But he

347
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 1: wasn't happy after a couple of years, and I'm not

348
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:04,879
Speaker 1: bitter about it. I thought we had a great time together.

349
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: But it's just one of those things where again you've

350
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 1: got to really have those conversations be on the same page.

351
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: So yeah, for me, like, I don't it's complicated. I

352
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 1: know people are probably gonna get mad, but because I settling,

353
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: I don't think you should settle unless that's something you're

354
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: okay with. And I know that sounds weird. That's the

355
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 1: things like we don't know the inside of a relationship,

356
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: and we know that people who have been able to

357
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: have um relationship with transition, so and it's and it's changed.

358
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 1: I know that when a gay couples who didn't who

359
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 1: were out and get married because whatever societal pressure, but

360
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: was able to remain in that marriage for their children

361
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 1: but still have an open marriage to keep that thing

362
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: and they're happy with that, that's amazing. That's an amazing

363
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: level of communication that I'm like, that is, you know,

364
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 1: like those in polyamige relationships. The level of communication and

365
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: openness that they could have to have in order to

366
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,160
Speaker 1: be able to really just lay it out is BEAUTI full.

367
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,439
Speaker 1: So when it was like yeah, damn, that's impressive. I

368
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: need to learn more about this because like, for I

369
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 1: think the biggest conversation that we've always had is like communicating, communicating,

370
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,600
Speaker 1: communicating whether it's consent, but there's about children, or it's

371
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: about marriage, but there's about relationships, but it's about it's

372
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: not non relationships, Like that's that level. But all of

373
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:20,679
Speaker 1: that to say is like there are amazing things that

374
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,959
Speaker 1: we don't see that wouldn't be the fantasy level. And

375
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 1: for some maybe settling, but for them it's not whether

376
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,360
Speaker 1: it is just companionship, like we've been together for so

377
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: long and we love each other's company, we're not romantically link.

378
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 1: We talked about that as the platonic marriage, and and

379
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: like that's amazing. I'm like, maybe that's the thing that

380
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,199
Speaker 1: should be with everyone, Like yeah, yeah, you know what.

381
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: I think you're right. I think settling is the wrong

382
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: We should have another in the negative negative term, but actuality,

383
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: what that looks like for us on the outside is

384
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 1: completely different from the inside, right. I think we need

385
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 1: to come up with a There needs to be another

386
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: word for what we're talking about, because there is like

387
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: the level of I have to get married. Society is

388
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: telling they have to get married. I'm just gonna do this, right,

389
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 1: that's no good. Um. But if I think there are

390
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 1: other ways relationships can look outside of what we see

391
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: in media all the time that we might yes on

392
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 1: the outside think is settling, but to the people in

393
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: the relationship is not so. I mean, we could have

394
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: been that Stanford and Carrey decided to have a marriage,

395
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: take the money, and then live their lives separately but together,

396
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 1: and they may have been happy. That's okay. I don't

397
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,400
Speaker 1: see why that's wrong if they're happy and everybody outside

398
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 1: of them are happy as long as they're on the

399
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 1: they communicated and they're right, and they communicate with other

400
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,199
Speaker 1: partners outside of them, So we have informed consent. I

401
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: mean that that's that level. Yeah, why can't be? And

402
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 1: also everybody is of an age and again, consent, consent, consent.

403
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 1: I don't think I said that in our consent episode

404
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,959
Speaker 1: when I was like, be happy, do you? But again,

405
00:23:55,640 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: being under age is not consent. They cannot consent, right, Okay,

406
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 1: Well what is my score, little baby? Zero? Zero zero zero,

407
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,439
Speaker 1: that's my first zero. I mean, but you know, you

408
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 1: knew it was gonna be a zero because even though

409
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: the settling bit. Getting married thing kind of was an aspect,

410
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: but it wasn't necessarily that. Yeah that was that wasn't

411
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: that wasn't that wasn't it. Sorry, I'm sorry, but the

412
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: Turtle was a specific dude who they just needed a term,

413
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: so they named him turtle essentially because the hair was

414
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 1: obviously the vibrator. Yeah, oh, I got you. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,

415
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I'll accept it. All right, let's go for
