Speaker 1: And I invited you here. I thought I made myself
Speaker 1: perfectly clear. When you're a guest to my home, you
Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guest,
Speaker 1: your presences presents enough. I already had too much stuff.
Speaker 2: So how do you dare to surbey me?
Speaker 3: Welcome to? I said, no gifts, and Bridger Winecker, we
Speaker 3: are in the backyard. Maybe that's not even a novelty
Speaker 3: for you anymore, listener, but it continues to be a
Speaker 3: novelty for me. Well, you couldn't have caught me at
Speaker 3: a worse time. I just finished a book yesterday and
Speaker 3: had no book planned to read after, and am now
Speaker 3: just in total free fall as far as reading is concerned.
Speaker 3: And that's essentially all I'm thinking about at all times.
Speaker 3: What will I read next? There's no end in sight,
Speaker 3: so I'm in a mood. But we're fortunately we have
Speaker 3: a wonderful, wonderful guest, and hopefully she can help alleviate
Speaker 3: some of this and we can just stop thinking about
Speaker 3: my situation for ten seconds. Let's welcome on Darcy. Cardon Darcy. Yeah,
Speaker 3: welcome to isaid no gid.
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for having me. I'm so sorry
Speaker 2: about this horrible predicament you're in. It's terrible.
Speaker 3: Are you a reader?
Speaker 2: Oops? I just outed myself that noise always says something.
Speaker 2: I come from a reading family. Oh, like a reading family.
Speaker 2: I come from a family of one to three four librarians.
Speaker 2: You're kidding me? My grandma, to uncles and an aunt.
Speaker 2: Oh that's lovely. And I'm definitely full of ADHD And
Speaker 2: I have, you know, whatever brain issues that I just
Speaker 2: I want to read. When I read, I'm happy to
Speaker 2: be reading. I just it takes so much for me
Speaker 2: to get to reading.
Speaker 3: What does it does it have to be just the
Speaker 3: exact right book.
Speaker 2: It's a little bit of the exact right book the
Speaker 2: exact right moment, because God, it's just so much easier
Speaker 2: to like watch something, of course, you know. And I
Speaker 2: also find it so daunting, like what if the book's
Speaker 2: not good? One hundred pages.
Speaker 3: In halfway through? My life is waste?
Speaker 2: Right? Whereas it feels like if I start a TV show,
Speaker 2: maybe I know, fifteen minutes and if I don't want
Speaker 2: to watch this or whatever, it feels so much it
Speaker 2: feels like less of a commitment. I guess. So I
Speaker 2: was just talking to my grandma about this because she's
Speaker 2: such a reader. And I was like, how do you
Speaker 2: get over that that, you know, that fear of wasting
Speaker 2: your time with a bad book? And she again, coming
Speaker 2: from all these readers, they like have their little tricks.
Speaker 2: She's like, oh, I know within the first time, pages
Speaker 2: ten pages.
Speaker 3: No, that's your grandmother's alive.
Speaker 2: She's a liar. I'm reading a book right now that
Speaker 2: is meant for little kids. What is it? It's great?
Speaker 2: My aunt wrote a book.
Speaker 3: Oh you're kidding.
Speaker 2: I'm not kidding. And and it's not out yet, but
Speaker 2: reading it and it's okay, So you can't really speak
Speaker 2: about I can't speak about it.
Speaker 3: Wow, a top secret young adult, highly addictive book.
Speaker 2: But I can't have to tell you about it when
Speaker 2: I am a lot to speak about.
Speaker 3: It when your aunt, you and your aunt come back
Speaker 3: to promote the book.
Speaker 2: Would do? Would do? But yeah, I guess it has
Speaker 2: to be the right book. It has to be. I
Speaker 2: do tend to read books that friends, right, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean? And what a weird little job we
Speaker 2: have that, like we would know people that you know
Speaker 2: write books, so I you know, there's the pressure to
Speaker 2: like read a book that a friend or acquaintance wrote right,
Speaker 2: and then also just you know, sometimes enough people have recommended.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm talking a lot about books for someone
Speaker 2: that really rarely reads. My mom always goes, but she
Speaker 2: reads scripts all the time. Guys, give her, give her,
Speaker 2: give her a break. What was what was the last
Speaker 2: big book you wrote wrote? What was the last novel
Speaker 2: that you ped? I read not so long ago call
Speaker 2: me by your name?
Speaker 3: Oh wonderful.
Speaker 2: I've never read it. I don't better my experience than
Speaker 2: the movie. Well did you watch the movie? Watch the
Speaker 2: movie and you didn't love the movie? That wasn't crazy.
Speaker 2: But I do think the book is better than the movie. Okay,
Speaker 2: I wonder if that might be your next the book?
Speaker 2: Is that might quite beautiful? Okay? And is there is?
Speaker 3: Is it?
Speaker 2: Oh? Sorry? Is there? I feel like seeing That's what
Speaker 2: I thought I'm gonna say. Is there a sequel? What
Speaker 2: do you mean? A book or a movie?
Speaker 3: I feel like I've read that there was a sequel
Speaker 3: on some short and it felt like, in what universe
Speaker 3: does any of this need a sequel?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Right, I don't. Oh, oh, there is a sequel okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: and I believe it follows the younger guy in his
Speaker 2: adult life.
Speaker 3: I think, I think, I think, I think fascinating. Don't
Speaker 3: want I have no interest in following that story past.
Speaker 3: Timothy shallow May crying in front of a TV. I
Speaker 3: like that.
Speaker 2: You think it's a TV. It was a fireplace. Maybe
Speaker 2: it was a TV with the fire the Netflix jet
Speaker 2: that kind of like Christmasy? What did I think it
Speaker 2: was a TV? Maybe I was bawling in front of
Speaker 2: the TV. You were, you were looking at a mirror.
Speaker 3: Basically I was watching the movie through a mirror, kind
Speaker 3: of doing a reverse. Okay, maybe that could be.
Speaker 2: The next one, and then another one, just another one
Speaker 2: I read. I mean, this is maybe a year ago.
Speaker 2: But Martin Schwartz autobiography. Have you read that? No? And
Speaker 2: I don't know why I have. Okay, that might be
Speaker 2: it too.
Speaker 3: That's a great idea, I recommend. I mean, like, who
Speaker 3: is funnier?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Literally literally and the podcast goes blank for one hour.
Speaker 2: It's nothing to say answer the question. It's beautiful, it's hilarious.
Speaker 2: I cried, it's it's sad, it's I really recommend. I
Speaker 2: can't believe we're talking about book so much. This is
Speaker 2: so funny. This is like my siblings right now are
Speaker 2: rolling their eyes like, yeah, she's the one to ask.
Speaker 2: They literally read a book a day. I'm I'm I
Speaker 2: am not smart.
Speaker 3: Oh give me a break. Okay, I mean it is
Speaker 3: interesting that we're talking about libraries a little bit, and
Speaker 3: this is not paid a pay promotion by any means.
Speaker 3: Earlier today, I went in an ACE Hardware. Okay, have
Speaker 3: you ever been in an ACE Hardware?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: This was my first experience inside. Usually i'm at a
Speaker 3: you know, the bigger chain, Yeah, bigger than face Home
Speaker 3: home depot. Never a positive experience in a home depot. Today,
Speaker 3: I thought and went in for absolutely no reason, but
Speaker 3: I just thought, I've never been in an ACE. Maybe
Speaker 3: what's happening in there that they're still able to stay
Speaker 3: afloat despite home depot kind of taking over the country.
Speaker 3: I went in, and I'm not kidding. I thought, the
Speaker 3: only other time I've had this experience was in a library.
Speaker 3: It was quiet, Yeah, it was peaceful. The cashier was
Speaker 3: so friendly. You're an aceman. I'm a full aceman.
Speaker 2: At this point.
Speaker 3: I mean, let's let's be honest. I don't know their politics, right,
Speaker 3: I know that, right, that could get icky. I don't know,
Speaker 3: but maybe there are. I mean my experience, it's run
Speaker 3: by angels.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. Well this is great because Home Depots
Speaker 2: is too big. It's it's it's too loud, there's not Also,
Speaker 2: I would love to be the face of home Depot,
Speaker 2: so I should probably I would love and it is
Speaker 2: out but I am the face of home Depot. But yeah, Ace,
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm okay. By the way, listeners to
Speaker 2: the bot. I'm looking around this lovely backyard. It's gorgeous.
Speaker 2: There are plants everywhere. Oh where the pandemic. My husband
Speaker 2: and I got really into plants.
Speaker 3: Oh you're kidding outdoor plant, indoor plants.
Speaker 2: Both okay. And I feel like we would go to
Speaker 2: Ace for I mean we would go to you know,
Speaker 2: your nice your nice nursery.
Speaker 3: You're nice, right.
Speaker 2: For example, it's great. It's by like the Target in Hollywood.
Speaker 2: You've driven by it. I have to imagine I have,
Speaker 2: and it's it's heart tay.
Speaker 3: Oh as in Mariska the brother you know, of course
Speaker 3: I'm familiar with that. I don't know why.
Speaker 2: I like, yeah, what's his name?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 3: Devon, absolutely the brother of Marisca.
Speaker 2: And there's all these school girls that work there. They
Speaker 2: have great plants. They're cheap. Again, I don't know why
Speaker 2: we're talking about this, but I'm glad we are. Actually
Speaker 2: i've listened to the podcast before.
Speaker 1: This is what it is.
Speaker 3: This is what Usually it's basically like medical science, like
Speaker 3: get into the issues and it's a very serious time.
Speaker 3: But this one time, I thought, let's talk about thee.
Speaker 2: And there mild the nurseries, the libraries, the books, the aces.
Speaker 2: It's the Yeah, so ACE would be like a fun
Speaker 2: place to get a bunch of cheap plants. So we
Speaker 2: would do that. Everyone while it was kind of like my, okay,
Speaker 2: this is what we do, and this is like deep
Speaker 2: pandemic time. My dog and I and my husband and
Speaker 2: my dog and I we would go no, not really
Speaker 2: a slip. We're like an omit. My dog and my
Speaker 2: husband and I would drive to ACE. My dog and
Speaker 2: I would stay in the car because you don't want
Speaker 2: two people going inside. You can't take a dog inside.
Speaker 3: I don't think not probably not any I feel like
Speaker 3: you can do whatever the hell you want in a home.
Speaker 2: No one knows what's going on. I have, I've done
Speaker 2: whatever the hell I want. My husband would come out
Speaker 2: of the ace with a freakin stroller. What are they called?
Speaker 3: Push the items strollers?
Speaker 2: Full of full of fun, surprise plants. Oh so you
Speaker 2: would just say go to as I say, here's forty
Speaker 2: dollars go nuts aces Wild. Oh my god, feel free,
Speaker 2: no listeners at home, Feel free to take that to
Speaker 2: your partner, say let's it's Sunday, let's go aces Wild.
Speaker 3: I can't believe what we've just come up. Oh my god,
Speaker 3: I'm mortified and also extremely proud.
Speaker 2: You should be proud.
Speaker 3: Also, ACE should be using that for their marketing strategy.
Speaker 2: What have they been doing?
Speaker 3: I think their thing is like very forgettable. It's like
Speaker 3: come to the store or something. Yeah, but now they
Speaker 3: say ACE is Wild.
Speaker 2: Like maybe it's one day a week, maybe it's the
Speaker 2: same day every week. Maybe it's like maybe it's one
Speaker 2: day a month, maybe it's one day a quarter. But
Speaker 2: it's like ACE Shoppers today is ACE is Wild. And
Speaker 2: that means what fifty plan?
Speaker 3: I think a fifty percent off and that is going
Speaker 3: to decimate their earnings reports. But that's okay, that's fine,
Speaker 3: it's worth it for the marketing. Yeah, so he would
Speaker 3: go in, your husband would go in. I'm picturing you
Speaker 3: and the dog in an old fashioned pickup.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it couldn't be rustier.
Speaker 3: And you just wait for him to come out with
Speaker 3: whatever plant.
Speaker 2: That's right. Sometimes I take Penny on a little stroll
Speaker 2: around the parking garage. It was a slow time early on.
Speaker 3: Ind that was that was an interesting period. It was
Speaker 3: also a time when I had just moved into this
Speaker 3: house and we had to go to home depot pretty frequently, right,
Speaker 3: and it was always very panic con.
Speaker 2: And now you wish you'd known about ACE. You wish
Speaker 2: you had heard of it.
Speaker 3: I had no idea there was even an option. But
Speaker 3: now it's fully on the radar. This has truly become
Speaker 3: I mean ACE. I'll expect an envelope. Yeah, I'm sorry,
Speaker 3: I mean I love an envelope empty end.
Speaker 2: I would know. Well, I really wish this was, you know, visual,
Speaker 2: because I can't tell you how beautiful these plants are.
Speaker 2: There's like a fusha pink plant that I have in
Speaker 2: a little pot, but this is a bush of it.
Speaker 2: This is an absolute bush too. Fact, it's overwhelming. Do
Speaker 2: you know what it's called? Yeah, but I can't remember.
Speaker 3: Somebody was here recently and they were googling trying to
Speaker 3: figure out what the name was, and we never quite
Speaker 3: landed on it, but it was like, yeah, something I can.
Speaker 2: Text my husband right now. Is that a fun thing
Speaker 2: to do on a podcast? Okay, wait, hold on, that's
Speaker 2: a thriller. It's just kind of a silent text exactly. No,
Speaker 2: I'll make it loud. I'll make it loud. I'll make
Speaker 2: it loud.
Speaker 3: Get the clicking noise.
Speaker 2: I'll take a thing here. Aren't you guys into like
Speaker 2: voice memo type stuff? I am, we're young. Here comes
Speaker 2: the voice memo. Hello, Jason, I'm report recording that. Oh
Speaker 2: I already screwed up. Hello Jason, I'm recording that podcast
Speaker 2: as we speak. You know, the pink flower that we
Speaker 2: have on our porch that like is so the one,
Speaker 2: I say is so dramatic because it always dies and
Speaker 2: then we water and it comes back to life. What
Speaker 2: is it called? Please report back immediately? Wow?
Speaker 3: And now we just wait, just wait. I could come
Speaker 3: within the time of the podcast. Will may come hours later?
Speaker 2: No, I think he will. He also if we're plugging things,
Speaker 2: and we are, of course only been plugging things. Jason
Speaker 2: has an app for plants that you point at it,
Speaker 2: you take a picture, and it tells you with complete accuracy.
Speaker 2: Wait that he developed or on his phone, the app
Speaker 2: on his phone, and it does feel accurate. It is
Speaker 2: absolutely accurate. It's insane and the app name is in Hillton. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask one more question, Please hold Jason. Also,
Speaker 2: what is the name of the plant app that you
Speaker 2: didn't develop but you do own on your phone? Please
Speaker 2: report back? Thank you.
Speaker 3: Okay, So while we wipe to hear back about that.
Speaker 3: I got a free plant to app at one point
Speaker 3: and it truly told me every plant in my yard
Speaker 3: was some sort of under sea.
Speaker 2: It was like, this is so not absolutely not good
Speaker 2: at all. No, this one is so accurate. And the
Speaker 2: name of we'll find out soon. But the name of
Speaker 2: the app is something like it makes it has nothing
Speaker 2: to do with like this is going to make more
Speaker 2: sense when he tells us. But it's something like spot
Speaker 2: it or something that has nothing to do with like
Speaker 2: how did you get this name? That's for right it?
Speaker 2: Maybe it isn't spotted, but it's like it's like the
Speaker 2: most basic app name. It's like picture this. I think
Speaker 2: I literally think it's picture this. I hope you respond
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 3: I'm now on. I'm now realizing also, is aces wild
Speaker 3: even a term? Or is it jokers wild?
Speaker 2: What is no term? Hon a Lis? Does anyone have
Speaker 2: any idea there's something wild? Right? I don't think it's
Speaker 2: it's certainly totally mean what you meant, and I'm sure
Speaker 2: in some I mean, why does it? It feels like
Speaker 2: it feels like if it's not the name, like like
Speaker 2: jokers wild for sure. No, no, no, I think it
Speaker 2: could be anything wild queens wise. Yeah, aces wild really
Speaker 2: sounds this is wild.
Speaker 3: I mean I feel like I've been, at the very
Speaker 3: least invented a new gambling term.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. Oh man. I played cards this weekend with
Speaker 2: my aunt and my uncle and my cousin and my husband,
Speaker 2: and uh we they're like a real make up the
Speaker 2: rules as you go family, like like setting the rules.

Speaker 2: have to pass your cards into the left or whatever.
Speaker 2: And it was very fun. But man, that's a certain.
Speaker 3: Kind of what card game?

Speaker 2: no idea. I love it. Anybody want to play rummy?
Speaker 1: Him?
Speaker 2: Yeap?
Speaker 3: Is it kind of a gambling game or is it
Speaker 3: more of a go fish style?
Speaker 2: Okay, those are the two as far as I well,
Speaker 2: I guess, because I feel like go fish is pretty much.
Speaker 3: Luck, right, I mean right, or let's talk about it.
Speaker 3: I mean essentially every one of these games. I mean, oh,
Speaker 3: there's strategy. Come on, you have a gambling addiction.
Speaker 2: No, I don't really know gambling that way, and only
Speaker 2: gambled a couple of times.

Speaker 2: You could do that, you know, could sit on it
Speaker 2: if you were giving your dog a bath. You know
Speaker 2: what I mean.
Speaker 3: I bathed my dog in the shower.

Speaker 2: that puppy. Yea, yeah, exactly said can we get a
Speaker 2: pit bull? We they said, chocolate lab pit And she
Speaker 2: does look like a laugh. But then when we've done
Speaker 2: her DNA, she's absolute not a lot or she's like
Speaker 2: a little you know one. Do I think that chocolab

Speaker 3: Yeah, I occasionally will, do you know, underwear or whatever,
Speaker 3: But suit works better. Yeah, swim suit drives drives off.
Speaker 2: So like a swimsuit doesn't get that much action. No,
Speaker 2: maybe like once a year, one to ten times a year, right,
Speaker 2: and if you're doing a if you're incorporating your swimsuit
Speaker 2: into your dog bathing, that's gonna double its usage.
Speaker 3: For me, that's one every once every ten days. This
Speaker 3: dog has to have allergy shampoo. So we're getting in there.
Speaker 3: I'm telling her what a good dog she is, over
Speaker 3: and over and over for probably fifteen minutes, and you
Speaker 3: have to pick her up and put her in the
Speaker 3: shower or she comes willingly. Although it's like one of
Speaker 3: these situations where I have to put the leash on.
Speaker 3: I offer her a treat, Okay, she won't take it.
Speaker 3: There's one time of the week that she knows that
Speaker 3: that's where that's headed. But she also knows that she's
Speaker 3: going to have a leash. I'm like, why not at
Speaker 3: least get the tree.
Speaker 2: And it's funny because Penny also doesn't want to be bathed,
Speaker 2: and then once she's in, she's fine, but she doesn't
Speaker 2: want to. But we always, Jason and I always were like,
Speaker 2: you're going to be rubbed for ten minutes. You want,
Speaker 2: we are going to rub you for ten minutes, you fool. Okay,
Speaker 2: here's a little tip if this would help. I smear
Speaker 2: peanut butter on the shower wall. Can you picture, Oh
Speaker 2: my god, that's not a huge glot, but just a
Speaker 2: little bit, so that she's like standing there licking the shower.
Speaker 2: Was so smart. Free We use peanut butter to get
Speaker 2: her to take every other pill exactly brilliant. At least
Speaker 2: try it for a month and then she'll get over it.
Speaker 2: I'm sure. So smart.
Speaker 3: Okay, and peanut butter, you know the dogs obsessed they do. Okay, Well,
Speaker 3: it sounds like you're just trying to kind of distract
Speaker 3: me from the issue at hand. So you agreed to
Speaker 3: be on I said, no gifts my podcast. At some
Speaker 3: point in the past, I was thrilled. I was so
Speaker 3: excited that Darcy is so funny. We'll have a great time.
Speaker 3: There's no she's not going to pull anything. She's not
Speaker 3: going to try to, you know, get the attention on her,
Speaker 3: she's going to allow me to have all the attention.
Speaker 3: So I was a little surprised while that bird.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, I was a little surprised when.
Speaker 3: You kind of sauntered into my backyard holding a bag.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, kind of singing I have a gift for you.
Speaker 3: Look what I brought, right, I wasn't quite sure what
Speaker 3: that meant. But now you kind of put it together. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I've kind of put the pieces together. So I have
Speaker 3: to ask, is this a gift for me?
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry, but it is. Okay, I know, I know,
Speaker 2: and I know that that was like really clear in
Speaker 2: the email. If that's not what this is, not even
Speaker 2: not what it's about, it's like really frowned upon.
Speaker 3: Right, I mean absolutely forbidden. I think forbidden is the
Speaker 3: only word. I think that that's kind of in all
Speaker 3: caps in the email.
Speaker 2: It's just it's the hard part, of course, is that
Speaker 2: I've never been to your house.
Speaker 3: Sure as a loophole, yeah, kind of dodging blame any
Speaker 3: way you can.
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm just such a sweet Midwestern goal Okay,
Speaker 2: well I'm from the Barrier, but you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: you put off a Midwestern you. I think that that's
Speaker 2: a wonderful thing. Well, do you want me to open
Speaker 2: it here on the podcast? I do, Yeah, do you mind?
Speaker 2: I just want to see you. I just want to
Speaker 2: see what it is. I mean, I know what it is,
Speaker 2: but I want to see you see what it is.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm happy to open it, and I want.
Speaker 2: You to know that the bag is part of the gift.
Speaker 3: It's a beautiful bag, isn't it. This is like a
Speaker 3: thick fabric.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 2: I kind of want to tell you what's going on
Speaker 2: before you get of course, let's here. Okay, here's what
Speaker 2: it is. I went through my house and gave you
Speaker 2: a bunch of stuff that I don't really want, untouched, unused,
Speaker 2: great things, but things that I'm like, I haven't opened
Speaker 2: this for a reason, but they're great things. There are
Speaker 2: things that I would give it to my sisters, things
Speaker 2: that my aunt's, my uncle's, whoever comes over. I don't
Speaker 2: want them, and I really want you to have.
Speaker 3: I can't wait to dive into this.
Speaker 2: And it's just one hundred dollars bills and I'm just
Speaker 2: strewed about your house. I also put a sticker over
Speaker 2: each of the name brands because I don't want any
Speaker 2: of the brands to feel like I didn't. That makes sense.
Speaker 3: You can ace hardware so.
Speaker 2: You feel free to peel the stickers off later, but
Speaker 2: on air.
Speaker 3: You will speaking brand name.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, let's get into that. Okay, it's a kind
Speaker 2: of I knew, I do know that you will use
Speaker 2: that bag. The bag looks I've only met you one time,
Speaker 2: but I know I can see you this bag.
Speaker 3: Bags and books are two things where I'm like, when
Speaker 3: the bags are my current bag start to have a
Speaker 3: hole in it, I begin to panic. Will my next bag?
Speaker 2: Honey?
Speaker 3: Okay, listener, this is it's not a gift bag. It's
Speaker 3: like a thick thing, so you're not going to hear
Speaker 3: any crunching.
Speaker 2: What do we call that a tote bag?
Speaker 3: It's like a toad's almost the shoulder.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's great. It's it's gray and black and white stripe.
Speaker 2: It's beautiful. It's really cute. I kind of feel guilty
Speaker 2: he just said the brand. It's okay, let's see. Okay, first,
Speaker 2: I know you have a dog. Wait, pet accessories. Oh god,
Speaker 2: I'm like, don't say the brand. I'm not gonna this is.
Speaker 3: I actually have no idea what I'm looking at great,
Speaker 3: great Great. I won't say the brand, because there was
Speaker 3: a very cute stick. Stickers are cute.
Speaker 2: Do you want to do? You want to help?
Speaker 1: You?
Speaker 2: Like? And it looks like, as far as I can tell,
Speaker 2: some sort of crystal product. Crystal product. What it's a
Speaker 2: little much for me. There's it's I think it's water
Speaker 2: goes in the container, okay, and there's a crystal in there,
Speaker 2: and then I think you press the button and then
Speaker 2: your dog can drink out of the Yeah, and maybe
Speaker 2: the crystal is like really good for your dog's health
Speaker 2: or something poison. Yeah, I don't want it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So it almost looks like an ice cream scool. Yes,
Speaker 3: it does, like a giant or like a snowball rower.
Speaker 3: But it's like a clear jar with a like an
Speaker 3: onyx crystal in the back.
Speaker 2: Crystal.
Speaker 3: This is a fascinating I mean it's a real pseudo science. Yes, uh,
Speaker 3: who knows what will happen, but this is perfect.
Speaker 2: I can take. There's a little crunchy crunch and when
Speaker 2: I got it, I thought, oh, I love this, and
Speaker 2: then I I did not ever want to open it again.
Speaker 2: I just it's like I would I guess i'd want
Speaker 2: it for a walk. But I'm never going to take
Speaker 2: a big old bowl or I mean, oh, oh, I
Speaker 2: guess you could just give it to your dog anytime.
Speaker 3: To me, it's like a walking right, It's not like
Speaker 3: when I'm at the house the dog has water.
Speaker 2: She's not going to drink out of a goddamn like
Speaker 2: ice cream scoop unless you put in maybe some bone broth. Okay,
Speaker 2: but sorry you guys. He laughs on me a lot,
Speaker 2: but he doesn't silently, so you don't know that I'm
Speaker 2: actually being stone.
Speaker 3: I'm Darcy. Please not stop stop stopping shows.
Speaker 2: You're doing the like the like your time is up. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: so that is something. Yeah, So anyway, for a walk
Speaker 2: or a hike, I would use one of those like
Speaker 2: collapsible bowls, oh, because I don't want bulky shit on
Speaker 2: me when I'm on a hike with my dog.
Speaker 3: So was the collapsible one like a fabric thing.
Speaker 2: It's like a plasticky rubbery thing and it just like
Speaker 2: flattens to like a rubber disk, and then you can.
Speaker 3: Pop it out like a like a So you're taking
Speaker 3: your dog on hikes?
Speaker 2: I am? How often? Well often? I was? She's well, okay,
Speaker 2: here's what I was about to do. This is a
Speaker 2: this is a problem of mine. Okay, ready, let's just
Speaker 2: get into it. You said, how often are you taking
Speaker 2: your dogs on walks? Yes, okay, My brain goes, well,
Speaker 2: she's sick right now, so you're not really taking her
Speaker 2: on walks that often, right, So exactly. So I'm like,
Speaker 2: but we don't need to get into the sickness. It's
Speaker 2: just sad. Think about pre sick right, So it's pre
Speaker 2: sick Okay, let's like during early COVID, well, like everything
Speaker 2: pre sickness. We're going on a walk every day, right,
Speaker 2: We're going on a hike with a water maybe like
Speaker 2: once or twice a week, and we're talking about three
Speaker 2: or four miles.
Speaker 3: That's a lot of hiking.
Speaker 2: And maybe you're a little bit but on a good
Speaker 2: day or a good week, that's what we're doing.
Speaker 3: Well, even once a week a hike.
Speaker 2: I live right next to a great HiPE.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, So it's just walk out the door, literally,
Speaker 3: not really planning it, okay.
Speaker 2: And the dog and enjoys. She loves it, she lives
Speaker 2: for it. Right now, she's bored. His hell, what's wrong?
Speaker 2: Get bored, honey?
Speaker 3: This is gonna be Oh, she gonna be okay, She'll
Speaker 3: be okay, Okay, as long as we know she's gonna
Speaker 3: be okay, she'll be okay.
Speaker 2: I don't know she'll be. How old is she? She's eight?
Speaker 2: Dog is also I know she's really young. Pits are
Speaker 2: prone to like mass cell tumors. Do you know you
Speaker 2: had one of Okay, we had it removed, So Pennys
Speaker 2: have on. I know, everything's okay. You know, Penny had
Speaker 2: four of them, and we've got them all, gotten them
Speaker 2: all removed, and this last one has been a doozy.
Speaker 2: And it's been since it's been like nine months. You've
Speaker 2: got to be kidding me. Where was it? It's on
Speaker 2: her like back leg, and we've done chemo and we've
Speaker 2: done surgery and we're we've done radiation and it's you know,
Speaker 2: she's great. I mean, she's great. She's like she's don't
Speaker 2: she's just a trooper and she's amazing. Jason and I
Speaker 2: are like absolutely, I don't even know. Like we're like
Speaker 2: we are dead. We died nine months ago. We're floating
Speaker 2: through this life.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: This has been like the most rollercoastery like nine months
Speaker 2: that have gone by in the blink of an eye
Speaker 2: and also have been so long. It's it's you know,
Speaker 2: when you're when the thing you love is not doing that,
Speaker 2: that is not a fun experience. Now, So guys, either
Speaker 2: cut this out or amplify it, put an echo behind it.
Speaker 3: Let's all just think about Penny for one second. Please
Speaker 3: give this crystal never was able to do.
Speaker 2: This is the thing. I'm like, would the crystal cure cancer?
Speaker 2: I don't think so, but if it does, let me know,
Speaker 2: And then I'm going to.
Speaker 3: Come back over here and take a back kind of
Speaker 3: a communal crystal. Yeah, oh my god. Okay, well we
Speaker 3: have other items to get into here, so we might
Speaker 3: as well just let's see here. Okay, this is since
Speaker 3: sense and again we're not saying the brand, and it
Speaker 3: kind of matches the crystal.
Speaker 2: It's a great vibe.
Speaker 3: But I can't imagine they're doggings.
Speaker 2: They're not doing sense and things with like incense and candles, like,
Speaker 2: I know, this is a good smell. I don't like it.
Speaker 3: Interesting, it's a very it's all.
Speaker 2: It's great. Yeah, why don't you freaking tell them everything?
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. It's uh, it's like if I you know,
Speaker 2: especially with candles and incense and scented things if you
Speaker 2: or even like creams and perfumes. If there's anything about
Speaker 2: the smell for me at least that's off, I'll just
Speaker 2: never use it. Well, I hope not right right. It's
Speaker 2: not a bad smell. It's not like a rotten smell.
Speaker 2: It's nothing. It's nothing, there's nothing off about it. It
Speaker 2: just doesn't sit right with me, so I don't want it.
Speaker 2: I think it smells nice. I have very low tolerance.
Speaker 2: I mean actually a very high tolerance for smells. I'm
Speaker 2: crazy about smells. What are your favorite smells? Oh, I
Speaker 2: like for candles and stuff like that. I like like
Speaker 2: a like a spearmint or like, oh, like a I
Speaker 2: say spearmint because the candle I'm thinking of is like
Speaker 2: winter spearmint or something like that. I love that. I
Speaker 2: like like a spearmint, you know, that classic candle smell.
Speaker 2: I like like a minty, wintery kind of an herb. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like a herb herbie. Thank you, thank you for the reminder.
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't think I've ever had a spearmint any
Speaker 3: outside of a gum, which I do think is an
Speaker 3: underrated gum.
Speaker 2: It's a great gum. It's you know, it is another
Speaker 2: great gum, underrated for youth, cinnamon, cinnamon. It's such a
Speaker 2: Grandpa gum.
Speaker 3: I love a big Red. I love a big bread.
Speaker 3: What are we talking about with big Red? Is it
Speaker 3: a sugar gum or have they gone to a sugar
Speaker 3: free Oh.
Speaker 2: My god, I don't really know about sugar and sugar
Speaker 2: free gums. I can only eat a sugar free gum
Speaker 2: at this point, because what are we doing with our bodies?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 3: I mean like that truly if it's a sugar gum.
Speaker 2: Just so. If I'm eating like Orbit gum like that
Speaker 2: for a day, thank god. Although what is this? Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 2: it's doing something else bad.
Speaker 3: I feel like there is a cinnamon gum that's sugar free,
Speaker 3: but a big red that hard almost riddle. I know,
Speaker 3: I love it.
Speaker 2: I think, well, if you're saying Orbit is sugar free,
Speaker 2: then that I feel like a lot of natural gums
Speaker 2: are ship crap. Fuck that the worst, the worst, nothing,
Speaker 2: do nothing. The taste goes away in thirty seconds. It's
Speaker 2: just the essence said that it's gone.
Speaker 3: I don't know that I've had any natural gums I
Speaker 3: always reached for, and this is not branded contact at orbit.
Speaker 2: Orbit. If you want two people to be the face
Speaker 2: of the great teeth. By the way, we have really
Speaker 2: good teeth. Your teeth are so good. We both had braces, right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: we both had Yeah, I got my braces. Oh is
Speaker 2: this good or what? I had my braces basically not
Speaker 2: basically for exactly junior high. I got them off like
Speaker 2: two weeks before high school.
Speaker 3: So is this now when you say junior high?
Speaker 2: For me? It was middle school, seventh to ninth grade,
Speaker 2: sixth and eighth, okay, and then I got it off
Speaker 2: like a week or two before, right, and wants the
Speaker 2: French me? And the answer was kind of a lot of.
Speaker 3: People oppos experience, but I wasn't. I simply was not.
Speaker 2: You were putting it out.
Speaker 3: God knows what would have happened had I.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was leading tooth first. Yeah, I was.
Speaker 3: Seventh to ninth grade. And then the feeling the freedom
Speaker 3: you're flying. Do you have a permanent retainer?
Speaker 2: I wish I did.
Speaker 3: I did for a long time until last year.
Speaker 2: That has one, and I'm jealous.
Speaker 3: But your teeth are perfectly stroked.
Speaker 2: Well, I am getting a teeny little gap on my
Speaker 2: in my front teeth as of when it's something that
Speaker 2: my retainer would keep closed. Okay, and I still have
Speaker 2: my retainer. It has so long, like ten years. I
Speaker 2: could put it in and like I could put it
Speaker 2: in tonight and maybe take like five advil and be
Speaker 2: able to get through that. Yeah, but it would really hurt.
Speaker 2: It would hurt.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I feel like.
Speaker 2: I'd be afraid I couldn't get it out.
Speaker 3: I don't know. No, your teeth are in a perfect
Speaker 3: spot now. I feel like they're not going to move anymore. No,
Speaker 3: they look fantastic. Yeah, last year I thought, you know,
Speaker 3: the permanent retainer had been part of my experience for
Speaker 3: over a decade. It was like, let's get rid of this.
Speaker 2: My sister says I when she got her little permanent retainer,
Speaker 2: I said, when will they take that off? And she goes,
Speaker 2: the pry it off my cold dead body. The archaeologist
Speaker 2: will find it exactly. That's what I was afraid. I
Speaker 2: feel like she was like eleven when she said that,
Speaker 2: and it really killed me. It was really funny. She
Speaker 2: remains funny.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not for me. They won't find that in
Speaker 3: my scout.
Speaker 2: But also I got to say a little, a little
Speaker 2: or a lot of like teeth crookedness is so cute.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you want a little carricter.
Speaker 2: What are we doing here.
Speaker 3: We don't need a fully deranged mouth.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, like, although I should get a couple of
Speaker 2: deranged mouths that I wouldn't mind getting in. Yeah. I
Speaker 2: feel like character is really all that Matt totally and
Speaker 2: flossing and brushing. Yes, the hygiene and character be clean.
Speaker 3: But baby, yeah, have a snaggle tooth.
Speaker 2: Go fill it.
Speaker 3: Orbit and sticks you like a spearman. I also love
Speaker 3: a factory.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I guess here's what I was ready for it.
Speaker 2: I love a minty, wintery smell in the winter. I
Speaker 2: love a citrusy smell in the summer. That makes perfect sense.
Speaker 3: I was talking to Anally's prior to the podcast because
Speaker 3: we were drinking some lacroix, and Oaly's told me that
Speaker 3: their favorite winter Lacroix flavor is coconut wait.
Speaker 2: Winter, Okay, no, no, no, I don't I don't disagree.
Speaker 2: You don't like coconut or you're saying for winter.
Speaker 3: I found it fascinating. I thought it was a very
Speaker 3: interesting like curling up by the fire with a coconut
Speaker 3: lacourie doesn't quite make sense.
Speaker 2: I'm with you, But which one makes more sense?
Speaker 3: None of them?
Speaker 2: Yeah? So yeah, stain away from lacray in the winter
Speaker 2: here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 3: I mean, I will say, an early winter morning with
Speaker 3: a pomegranate flo or not pomegranate grapefruit flavor makes sense?
Speaker 2: Yeah, but isn't grapefruit also? Okay? An early morning winterry.
Speaker 2: Hold on, we're drinking Lacroix in the morning.
Speaker 3: That's describing as someone who's losing their Yeah.
Speaker 2: Wake up, Papa Lacroix. Are you my bacon and you
Speaker 2: got it? Are you? Are you a coffee? A coffee?
Speaker 2: I'm a huge.
Speaker 3: Coffee me too? Are you coffee? First thing in the morning?
Speaker 2: The second I opened my sort of coffee? Uh, hot coffee,
Speaker 2: coffee hot. I could do hot coffee all day, even
Speaker 2: on a hot day. Wow. Now, I do love a
Speaker 2: nice coffee, but I tend to gravitate towards hot coffee.
Speaker 3: Do you have do you have cold coffee available in
Speaker 3: the morning?
Speaker 2: Uh? No, I'd have to go get you have to go, yeah,
Speaker 2: or I'd have to fucking put in Sorry, Sorry, I'm sorry, sorry,
Speaker 2: just just absolutely saying fuck for no reason.
Speaker 3: Just podcast for some reason is rated explicit, which I
Speaker 3: find very funny.
Speaker 2: That is funny, just the option. But I mean, I
Speaker 2: don't mind swearing, and I don't and I think I've
Speaker 2: sworn a time or two today. But I didn't mean
Speaker 2: to say it there, I fully unnecessary.
Speaker 3: The listener is wagging their fingers.
Speaker 2: They go no, no, no, none. On my watch, he's
Speaker 2: just kind of backing away more than about away. We
Speaker 2: don't want this person as a spokesman. But American libraries
Speaker 2: are like color intrigued.
Speaker 3: Yes, coffee in the morning. You're a hot coffee drinker.
Speaker 3: I'm a cold coffee drinker.
Speaker 2: You might have to have it, Okay, So how do
Speaker 2: you do a cold coffee? Do you buy cold brew? No?
Speaker 2: I make cold brew you once a week. Cute.
Speaker 3: It's a whole toddy system. Taught myself to use it.
Speaker 3: It's incredible, amazing. It's changed my life in one way, yeah,
Speaker 3: not in multiple maybe.
Speaker 2: But also like I would say, like having a thing
Speaker 2: like that changes, Like it's not just that you're drinking
Speaker 2: good coffee that you love in the morning, it's that
Speaker 2: like once a week, it's a little bit of I
Speaker 2: don't know, like I was about to say, like God,
Speaker 2: but it's a little bit of what is it? It's
Speaker 2: like having like a routine and a ritual, you know,
Speaker 2: like this is my time to do this thing. Didn't
Speaker 2: you find so many of those over like the early pandemic.
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: I basically found that, Yeah, making baking, making, Yeah, it
Speaker 2: feels so many little things. Making soup like a big
Speaker 2: thing I got into over the pandemic was like calm posting.
Speaker 2: I would spend so much of my time breaking food down, like.
Speaker 3: Had you done it prior to never barely knew what
Speaker 3: it was? Now you're addicted.
Speaker 2: Now now I'm addicted. And although some of the composted
Speaker 2: soil that we've used, maybe I didn't compost it enough
Speaker 2: because a tomato plant grown out, like I just had
Speaker 2: like a regular old house plant, and I put in
Speaker 2: some of the compost soil on top and then a
Speaker 2: tomato plant and killed the plant. Yeah, took over. But
Speaker 2: now we have one little tiny tomato growing and that's
Speaker 2: kind of.
Speaker 3: Rat That's fantastic, And what what a hopeful message. I know,
Speaker 3: but anything can grow out of garbage, that's right.
Speaker 2: Whoa take that? Take that? If you take anything from
Speaker 2: this podcast. If you take anything for the last two
Speaker 2: and a half years, anything can grow. I think there's
Speaker 2: something there.
Speaker 3: Anything can grow from trash. I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't need that. I'm not I'm like, what does
Speaker 2: that mean? But I like it.
Speaker 3: That feels like something that could at least go on
Speaker 3: a wall, a pillow or something. And as long as
Speaker 3: you don't give it a second thought, you're like, that's right. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I feel like there's an Instagram graphic for sure, one
Speaker 3: of those like pseudo you know, therapy instagram things is
Speaker 3: going to have that all over there.
Speaker 2: And then like one of those Instagrams that you follow
Speaker 2: and unfollow immediately, like after a week you're like, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: I don't want this. It was I don't want this
Speaker 2: exactly exactly.
Speaker 3: Okay, more, Okay, let's we've got to reach back in
Speaker 3: because there are multiple okay, uh oh, there's an ice
Speaker 3: sleeping mask. I will say there have been guests on
Speaker 3: this podcast before who have brought a bag full of
Speaker 3: items multiple times. Uh usually complete trash. Uh well, actually
Speaker 3: sometimes trash, sometimes not. This is probably the nicest version
Speaker 3: of b I didn't want to anything bad.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to give you anything bad. I just
Speaker 2: I just wanted to give you things I don't want. Okay,
Speaker 2: this is an avocado ie mask, so it's like probably
Speaker 2: I cream that you sleep in.
Speaker 3: Do you have any idea if it's like the kind
Speaker 3: of TV mom green?
Speaker 2: Oh I hope it is. I do. I really hope
Speaker 2: it is. There's something it's. Yeah, I'm not even going
Speaker 2: to tell you. This would give away the product if
Speaker 2: I told you too much about it.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we don't want to do. I mean, I've
Speaker 3: already done a keyword on the insights. So but I
Speaker 3: will say that it brightens. Yeah, it brightens. Uh, it
Speaker 3: has written all It's gonna be great. H people scream
Speaker 3: about all.
Speaker 2: I try about it. I love it.
Speaker 3: Have you ever had an off one of those full
Speaker 3: avocado masks?
Speaker 2: Probably when I was I think when I was like,
Speaker 2: you know, a teenager, I was. My sisters and I
Speaker 2: were really into like put an egg in your hair
Speaker 2: or like yeah yeah, make your own honey mask or whatever,
Speaker 2: and you would do it like one time, and you'd
Speaker 2: be like this, you did that work for not of
Speaker 2: that of results. So I need to go to CVS
Speaker 2: and buy a thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't I wonder if we ever came
Speaker 3: to a conclusion as a society whether that did anything.

Speaker 3: Someone's got to create some sort of charity that funnels
Speaker 3: all of that.
Speaker 2: I bet there is, But I will tell you that
Speaker 2: I've been to like gift baggy type of places where

Speaker 2: I don't I would if I like, I don't want
Speaker 2: to use something and then throw it away like a
Speaker 2: lot right now, girls with their makeup, Honey, they're not

Speaker 3: known for.
Speaker 2: Years for you and every once in a while it's
Speaker 2: nice to try a new avocado. I'm ask but I'm good.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's let's I mean, we do have so many
Speaker 3: items and this could be a record breaking episode. Sorry, Okay,
Speaker 3: we're reaching in again.
Speaker 2: What is okay? So this I think this is a
Speaker 2: detoxifying sh shampoo.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh so, I've on recent episodes have talked about
Speaker 3: shampooing and how I kind of stopped champoo.
Speaker 2: Maybe this is the perfect product for like a once a.
Speaker 3: Month exactly because I was playing around with something called
Speaker 3: what I've now committed to memory because a lot of
Speaker 3: listeners wrote in screaming it's called co washing.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, do you know what this is?
Speaker 3: No where you're only washing your hair with conditioner and
Speaker 3: only on occasion.
Speaker 2: So washing your hair with conditioner, conditioning your hair, conditioning
Speaker 2: your hair of shampoo is never part of the equation.
Speaker 2: Condition your hair shampoo is never I think that.
Speaker 3: Really the goal from what I can tell from everything
Speaker 3: I over the trends over the last twelve years, it's
Speaker 3: it's like, just have the greasiest hair.
Speaker 2: Here's the thing, listeners, I know you've seen pictures. His
Speaker 2: hair is fantastic. Oh god, gorgeous. Hair is gorgeous. And
Speaker 2: I'm not so close to you. But as long as
Speaker 2: you don't smell bad, you're good.
Speaker 3: I don't know, but you do. I really smelling is
Speaker 3: a big concern.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I can tell showering once a day. I used
Speaker 2: to shower twice a day, which seemed unhealthy. It doesn't.
Speaker 2: It's unnecessary, fully what you gotta do, but.
Speaker 3: I mean sometimes to day. I mean here depends on
Speaker 3: the situa. Yeah, I do like a nighttime shower so relaxed. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but you have to have you got to have a
Speaker 3: long period before you go to bed.
Speaker 2: Right, Oh, because you can't go to bed with wet hair.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to bed hair. I do. I do,
Speaker 2: I absolutely do sometimes just to see what it looks
Speaker 2: like when you wake up. That's fun, that's just fun.
Speaker 3: I need at least an hour and a half between
Speaker 3: shower and sleepy time.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I hit the bed with wet hair, and if
Speaker 2: I do that, it's brushed and it's probably in pigtails
Speaker 2: or a break.
Speaker 3: Oh that's very sweet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm really cute.
Speaker 3: And then your bed is just mildeucy.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's true. That's true. That's true. Kind of a
Speaker 2: yeah for sure. Like halfway through the night, I'm flipping
Speaker 2: the pillow over because it's just soaking wet.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I never really thought about that one. Yep.
Speaker 3: I this looks like an this looks like a shampoo experiment.
Speaker 2: Maybe and maybe again it's a maybe that's like a
Speaker 2: once a month or one month, once a quarter, bi monthly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like maybe once a month. I'm conditioning.
Speaker 2: And then okay, hold hold, hold, hold hold. And by
Speaker 2: the way, I'm not judging any of this right because
Speaker 2: I know that I know we have over washed and
Speaker 2: conditioned our hair for you.
Speaker 3: We've done it too much. It's the nineties, did a
Speaker 3: lot our hair.
Speaker 2: But so I was thinking you conditioned every time. So
Speaker 2: you're getting in a shower or wetting your hair.
Speaker 3: Wedding, absolutely webbing, running like a comb through. Okay, I
Speaker 3: have like a plastic thing in the shower just because
Speaker 3: I have pretty thick hair. But the actual act of
Speaker 3: any sort of chemical or anything hitting my hair is
Speaker 3: probably once every two to three weeks.
Speaker 2: I wonder, what would you know, Like we were talking
Speaker 2: about avocado on the face, Like, I wonder if there's
Speaker 2: like a household product. I don't even know what it
Speaker 2: would be, like an egg, an avocado that you can
Speaker 2: just like smooth on through your hair, just to see
Speaker 2: what the hell would happen.
Speaker 3: I feel like people talk about vinegar. Vinegar could be wrong,
Speaker 3: and that feels like it would dry you out. I
Speaker 3: don't think anyone knows what's happening with maybe butter shortening,
Speaker 3: buttersch but.
Speaker 2: This, yeah, maybe I don't know. I don't want you
Speaker 2: to like mess up the what's the word like alchemy?
Speaker 3: Alchemy I feel like is turning something into gold, which
Speaker 3: I mean I feel like it should be the name
Speaker 3: of a shampoo or something.
Speaker 2: Why did I say alchemy and maybe I meant chemistry chemistry.
Speaker 2: I feel like chemistry is kind of the chemical balance. No,
Speaker 2: let's say alchemy. I don't want you turning your hair
Speaker 2: into gold, because if you wash with this shampoo and
Speaker 2: then you come out with a head full of gold,
Speaker 2: that's on me.
Speaker 3: Kind of Midas touch. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's another name
Speaker 3: for a shampoo. Minas to shampoo companies reach out. I'm
Speaker 3: ready to market.
Speaker 2: I got a name for a shampoo, Aces Wild. Would
Speaker 2: you buy at the hard Pee Queen's Wild.
Speaker 3: Queen's Wand I feel like Ace Hardware needs to get
Speaker 3: into the hair characters. What are they doing a little
Speaker 3: on in the back of the store, something for everyone.
Speaker 3: The atmosphere is there, it's almost a spy atmosphere. Again,
Speaker 3: not paid promotion. I just I've been there one time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's a great place. Okay, So clarifying, this
Speaker 2: might be the absolute perfect thing for you. Eucalyptus essential oil.
Speaker 2: This is you're using this once a month, once a year.
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know, but you're you're using it,
Speaker 2: You're loving it, You're so glad it smells. I'm going
Speaker 2: to try to smell it real quick. Care opening it up.
Speaker 2: This is honestly, it's used to shampoo in a bottle
Speaker 2: like this, and it's like it's very small.
Speaker 3: It's like you only need a dam.
Speaker 2: It might be fun to google how much these things
Speaker 2: were and then we can add it up and maybe
Speaker 2: it's good, it's not overwhelming. I think it'd be fun
Speaker 2: to figure out who what guest is giving you the most?
Speaker 3: Price's right style.
Speaker 2: After we've opened all of these, I'm going to do
Speaker 2: some sort of estimate and then I think I will
Speaker 2: tally it up with your permission, please, on no other occasion.
Speaker 3: What I when I look up gift prices.
Speaker 2: Because keep in mind, I didn't buy any accent to you.
Speaker 3: So I will look up the prices and then on
Speaker 3: Instagram tell the final total. Okay, and we'll see what it's.
Speaker 3: This is as close as i'll get to prices.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 2: Great. I think this is great with kind of don't
Speaker 2: count yourself so you might be on that show one
Speaker 2: of these days.
Speaker 3: Oh I guess I should believe it. Yeah, life is long, Drew, Carey,
Speaker 3: reach reach out. It's sick that you haven't already reached out. Yeah,
Speaker 3: this is kind of a Goop style. Price is right,
Speaker 3: so Goop? Okay, so we're reaching back in. Oh, a
Speaker 3: beautiful bar soap.
Speaker 2: Just a bar so When was the last time I
Speaker 2: used a bar soap? It's I've got a gel, you've
Speaker 2: got a jel, but you are do you use a gel?
Speaker 2: I ate a showery?
Speaker 3: But every one, it's nice to go back to basics.
Speaker 3: To go back to basics with a bar of soap.
Speaker 3: There's something so underrated about agree rubbing that in between
Speaker 3: your hands, lathering it up.
Speaker 2: It's going to bring you somewhere. It's going to bring
Speaker 2: you back in time. It's gonna like it's they're kind
Speaker 2: of having jail prison slips out of your hand. I mean,
Speaker 2: it's fun when the soap slips. Oh, it's so fun.
Speaker 3: And it looks nice.
Speaker 2: It looks nice. Yeah, it's and wait, let's see this
Speaker 2: says bar soap energizing multipurpose. I mean this could be
Speaker 2: in the shower. I guess it could be like on
Speaker 2: a little next to your saying that a.
Speaker 3: Bar soap next to the sun.
Speaker 2: I don't love it.
Speaker 3: I don't think anyone likes that. No one trusts that.
Speaker 2: You know. The nice thing about a bar soap in
Speaker 2: the shower is like you can wash it off before
Speaker 2: you like, there's something unhygienic about.
Speaker 3: Sitting there in its own filth in the shower. You
Speaker 3: know it belongs to one person exact every not all pause.
Speaker 2: Not all pause. Maybe maybe two people are using it
Speaker 2: to right, that's fine.
Speaker 3: Well, let's I mean, depends on your romantic situation. Maybe
Speaker 3: there are hundreds. And then I go back to the
Speaker 3: same problem.
Speaker 2: That's right. Although if it's a romantic situation, you've done
Speaker 2: more than just soap to each other.
Speaker 3: True, and if you've got you know, also everyone should
Speaker 3: have there, Maybe it's time for you to buckle down.
Speaker 2: Everybody. They're on bar of soap.
Speaker 3: That's right, little soap library.
Speaker 2: Wow. Depending on that's how you that's how you sort
Speaker 2: of prove where you're at with this person. Is I
Speaker 2: got you your own soap. They're like, yeah, thanks, I
Speaker 2: guess I could have just used ours. They're like, I'm
Speaker 2: more of a I'm more of a body wash guy.
Speaker 2: But okay, and.
Speaker 3: Let's be honest, this has got peppermint in it, so
Speaker 3: you're really giving.
Speaker 2: Up some gold too. Shit, I want to back.
Speaker 3: It smells it, but it's not overwhelming. It doesn't sound
Speaker 3: like it's gonna burn. Although I do love a peppermint oil.
Speaker 2: I do too.
Speaker 3: The slight burn of a peppermint oil feels like something's
Speaker 3: being eradicate.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you one thing. I used to work at
Speaker 2: a what are they called nail salon? Okay, okay, what
Speaker 2: did you do with the nail sep? I was the
Speaker 2: front desk girl.
Speaker 3: Okay, you weren't the nail tech.
Speaker 2: I wasn't the nail tech. I worship them artal artists. Yeah.
Speaker 2: My little sister and I both worked at She was
Speaker 2: in high school, I was in college. It was like
Speaker 2: a summer that I was home and we had like
Speaker 2: a peppermint scrub option. And I guess I'll admit that
Speaker 2: I took a bunch of at home. Did not buy it,
Speaker 2: but I took it.
Speaker 3: You're not getting that job, but yeah, I know, I know,
Speaker 3: I like, you know.
Speaker 2: Probably put it in like a tupperwareing. I absolutely took
Speaker 2: a bunch of at home. And this is like how
Speaker 2: I know karma is real. I used it. It's just
Speaker 2: for like in the salon. They just used it on
Speaker 2: the women's feet. Right, and and their they're calves. And
Speaker 2: this was I put it all over my body and
Speaker 2: I hospital I had. I thought I was going to
Speaker 2: have to go to the hospital. I literally thought I
Speaker 2: was going to have to go to the hospital. I
Speaker 2: thought I was like burning my inside's life. No, granted,
Speaker 2: you understand, I didn't like scrub inside.
Speaker 3: Of it, which doesn't take it.
Speaker 2: It doesn't take that powerful The oil or whatever it is,
Speaker 2: it gets wherever it wants to get.
Speaker 3: Sounds like we're talking about industrial grade. Do you brush
Speaker 3: it from the pros? Yeah, exactness wasn't something I learned
Speaker 3: a lesson. I really learned a lesson.
Speaker 2: I Uh. It took a really long time for the
Speaker 2: sensation to go away. It was really terrible.
Speaker 3: Dragged yourself across the bathroom floor to the phone nine
Speaker 3: one one. I have peppermin oil.
Speaker 2: All over my poor brother was the only person home,
Speaker 2: and I ran out in a towel, and I was like,
Speaker 2: I don't know what is happening.
Speaker 3: How long did it take for that sensation to go away?
Speaker 2: It feels in my memories like thirty minutes. I was like,
Speaker 2: what do I do? Do I bathe in milk? Like?
Speaker 2: Do I need to make a oatmeal bath. What do
Speaker 2: I need? I need to go to the hospital. It's scary.
Speaker 2: It was really scary. Yeah, and you don't know if
Speaker 2: it's going to escalate exactly. Oh, I thank you for knowing.
Speaker 2: It was not the only time you've stolen from an employer. No, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: no no no. I've done this so many times. I
Speaker 2: don't know what I should admit to. Because there was
Speaker 2: a while where I was like a temp right in
Speaker 2: a long time where I was a temp in New York,
Speaker 2: and I would sort of think, like part of the
Speaker 2: payment is I can just take whatever the hell I want.
Speaker 2: I'm not buying paper.
Speaker 3: Clips, right, yeah, Oh yeah, I've worked in office atmospheres.
Speaker 3: Whro I'm like, We've got i mean, truck folds of
Speaker 3: this coming in. Yeahbody's going to notice if I'm stalking
Speaker 3: up at home.
Speaker 2: And it kind of felt right, It felt a little
Speaker 2: bit like I'm being underpaid, I'm being overworked, my boss
Speaker 2: is an asshole, whatever, whatever, whatever the day is. And
Speaker 2: it felt a little bit like I'm taking I'm taking
Speaker 2: this from me, I'm taking one from me, I'm taking
Speaker 2: one for me.
Speaker 3: Whatever that I'm making you a better employee for sure. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: you have to worry about those things.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just remember there was a while where I
Speaker 2: was really taking a lot of diet coke home.
Speaker 3: Oh of course, yeah, of course when I had.
Speaker 2: My diet coke problem, which was only die coke problem
Speaker 2: means I had to a day, but I had to
Speaker 2: a day for a good a good long while.
Speaker 3: And were you taking like one can home a night
Speaker 3: or how did that work?
Speaker 2: I guess you did say. I was taking probably like four, okay.
Speaker 3: And just dropping them in your bag.
Speaker 2: Dropping in my bag, having Jason and I would each
Speaker 2: have one for dinner. And you need to know I
Speaker 2: had zero dollars in my bank account. I understand, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean. I felt like it was part
Speaker 2: of the payment. I get my little paycheck at the
Speaker 2: end of the week. And I also took home twenty
Speaker 2: diet cokes.
Speaker 3: A job when I first moved to LA where I
Speaker 3: had no money, and my coworker would do the grocery
Speaker 3: shopping for the office and he'd say, what can I
Speaker 3: get you? And I would say, please buy an entire
Speaker 3: box of breakfast Bods. I just put them in my
Speaker 3: car before you even bring them into the.
Speaker 2: Office, and would they of course? Right. Now, here's the
Speaker 2: like when it comes to stealing from work, the difference.
Speaker 2: I guess, Okay, this is what I remember. If I
Speaker 2: worked in an office and it was a rough job
Speaker 2: with rough people, I would feel great about justified. If
Speaker 2: I also worked as a nanny and that was a
Speaker 2: different situation.
Speaker 3: Right where they kind of trust you almost as a family.
Speaker 2: Yes, it was like it was almost like not even
Speaker 2: it was It didn't even like enter my head. It
Speaker 2: wasn't like I'm going to take home their box of cereals.
Speaker 2: Oh it's also their home, right, I guess it's more
Speaker 2: like a more personal space. It just felt like I
Speaker 2: felt justified and taking from like a big, fancy office.
Speaker 3: Of course, the money's there. Were you ever wrong to nanny?
Speaker 2: Not really? Yeah, probably really good experience as nanny nannying,
Speaker 2: But yeah, was I wronged as a nanny? Probably? Yeah,
Speaker 2: Because part of nannying when I was in nanny for
Speaker 2: ten years in New York is I would try to
Speaker 2: nanny for as many families as possible, right, so that
Speaker 2: nobody would count on me, Oh, so that I could
Speaker 2: still audition and whatever I needed to do. So if
Speaker 2: I just nanny for one family, it would be like
Speaker 2: I would be there, live in nanny or you know whatever.
Speaker 2: I would be their day to day nanny. But if
Speaker 2: I nannied for fifteen families, then I could sort of
Speaker 2: like make my own schedule.
Speaker 3: Right, almost like an aggressive babysitter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly. It was great. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I imagine a lot of nanny's have been wronged. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but stealing from work I support unless it's like you know,
Speaker 3: mom and Pop's exact situation.
Speaker 2: If it's a big company, go for it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm very proud of people stealing from big companies.
Speaker 2: Do it.
Speaker 3: Okay, we've got to keep going. I don't even know
Speaker 3: how I got to stealing from your employer.
Speaker 2: But speaking of stealing from big companies, Oh no, I
Speaker 2: don't know how. Don't mean you know.
Speaker 3: Oh, this looks like a candle. Yeah, and I imagine
Speaker 3: it is the the the label has been completely stickered.
Speaker 2: Because I think it's I think this is like a
Speaker 2: nice little sweet. Okay, I'm smelling it. I'm smelling. I
Speaker 2: mind myself what it is. Don't tell me it's not.
Speaker 2: Should I try to guess what this is. It's not
Speaker 2: like a it's a great scent. I just know it
Speaker 2: would give me a headache.
Speaker 3: It feels like a combo of things. So I don't
Speaker 3: know that I'm gonna be able to see ruin dandy Lion.
Speaker 2: That that smell that we all know and love dandy Lion,
Speaker 2: is it saying what it is she's smelling. It's a
Speaker 2: good smell. It's just I can't there's I think there's
Speaker 2: like an essential oil thing for me that like gives
Speaker 2: me a headache or I don't. I don't know, babe,
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Top notes of dandy Lion.
Speaker 2: Absolutely dandy lion.
Speaker 3: There's something else. And then you smell the wax and that.
Speaker 2: I feel like maybe dandy Lion is actually like a
Speaker 2: plant that doesn't have a smell at all.
Speaker 3: Is it a yellow essentially a yellow weed? I don't
Speaker 3: think it has a smell. Well, let's not count out
Speaker 3: that just yet. Okay, I think this is okay, this
Speaker 3: is everything, So you can't. It sounds like from what
Speaker 3: we can tell, the only smell you like is spearmint.
Speaker 3: But you've given me a variety of things here that
Speaker 3: smell that I find very lovely.
Speaker 2: I hope you do.
Speaker 3: And I mean I'm trying to think of smells that
Speaker 3: I don't like, poo poo, corpse. No, I feel like
Speaker 3: I'm pretty okay with most smells outside of old fish.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I have bought, I bought, I have bought candles.
Speaker 2: Is that correct?
Speaker 3: I have bought, I have purchased.
Speaker 2: I have candles or soap smells that I think are
Speaker 2: going to be great, and there's just something about them
Speaker 2: that give me a headache. I think I'm pretty sensy
Speaker 2: when it comes to smell.
Speaker 3: Right, Smells can lead to a migraine, yeah, And do
Speaker 3: you get migraines?
Speaker 2: No? But there was a there was a while where
Speaker 2: Sarah Goldberg, who play an actress who plays Sally on
Speaker 2: the Great HBO show Barry Check it Out. She was
Speaker 2: a big essential oil girl and she would like always
Speaker 2: be dabbing damn essential oils all over her like head
Speaker 2: and wrists, and it would be like this one will
Speaker 2: wake me up and this one will focus me in
Speaker 2: this And I was like, I love you and I
Speaker 2: love this and I'm going to be an essential oil girl.
Speaker 2: And I got some essential oils and they they didn't
Speaker 2: give me a migraine, but they would like turn my stomach.
Speaker 2: They would like give me a headache and nausea, and
Speaker 2: I would. I tried them too many times.
Speaker 3: I watched the whole documentary on essential oils, and there's
Speaker 3: it's a scam.
Speaker 2: But it's a scam. But okay, the scam part of it.
Speaker 2: And I didn't watch this documentary, so I don't know.
Speaker 2: But the scam is that they heal you, right, right,
Speaker 2: they do things I think they do.
Speaker 3: I mean, at the very least, they smell. The scam
Speaker 3: is not that they smell.
Speaker 2: They don't smell. That's a scam. You're being scammed into
Speaker 2: thinking they have a smell. There's millions American scam. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean, like I feel like there's the uhu.
Speaker 2: It was health it'll heal, yeah, right, not healing it.
Speaker 3: But no, these lavender fields or one of them, they
Speaker 3: smell lovely. Yeah, but beyond that, let's be honest. It's
Speaker 3: a little flim flam, a little being sold out of
Speaker 3: the back of a wagon that kind.
Speaker 2: Of essential oil stuff into a bath one time and
Speaker 2: I again, and I absolutely my fucking skin And there
Speaker 2: I go with the f again. I'm not gonna apologize
Speaker 2: for that one. I got out of the bath like
Speaker 2: a rash and then I realized, okay, so the smell
Speaker 2: the essential oil. I'm getting out of the essential oil game.
Speaker 2: No smells, no body like, just it's not right for me.
Speaker 3: What sort of oils do you remember? These essential oils
Speaker 3: and that lavender?
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2: In a little bottle, I went think, think, thing, thing, thing.
Speaker 3: Do you have allergies?
Speaker 2: I guess maybe essential oil just a category percocet.
Speaker 3: If you must know it makes you allergic to it.
Speaker 3: I mean that's kind of a blessing. I would say,
Speaker 3: why because you're not going to get addicted.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, wait is that the right one? Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's like what you would they maybe give it to
Speaker 2: you after like a surgery, right right?
Speaker 3: I feel like the one time I had a powerful
Speaker 3: painkiller like that was after I got my wisdom teeth
Speaker 3: from m had Laura tab.
Speaker 2: And how was it great?
Speaker 3: Horrible, horrible nausea vomiting. So you're allergic to that, I guess.
Speaker 2: So when you go to the doctors and they say
Speaker 2: do you have any allergies? I hope you say Laura
Speaker 2: mar because I.
Speaker 3: Don't want to go through the list. I say nope.
Speaker 2: But now I'm bringing up this memory. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 2: maybe I should look out for that one. I always
Speaker 2: to say percoset, no, percoset.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, oh yeah, I need to guess the amount
Speaker 3: of this.
Speaker 2: Oh, okakay, I'm going to guess too.
Speaker 3: We have the soap, the eyemask, the incense sticks, the candle,
Speaker 3: the crystal dog drinker, and the toxic fying shampoos. Should
Speaker 3: we throw the bag in because.
Speaker 2: The feels nice? The bag is nice. The bag is nice.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, if I were to go to one
Speaker 3: of our local boutiques and purchased all of these items,
Speaker 3: I would probably be spending two hundred and forty five dollars.
Speaker 2: I was going to say two hundred dollars. I think
Speaker 2: two forty five is a really good guess.
Speaker 3: On at least do you have a guess? So we're
Speaker 3: in the two hundred range. This is a at least
Speaker 3: a two hundred dollars value.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and what was Tony Haile's like, probably ten dollars
Speaker 2: for all that rope?
Speaker 3: I mean, go to the store and buy me something
Speaker 3: you've homemade.
Speaker 2: What are we talking? That was pretty incredible? Isn't that amazing?
Speaker 2: I mean what I was touched by that that I
Speaker 2: just made that for you. That was really part of gold.
Speaker 3: I mean, the man's an angel and also a craftsman, yeah,
Speaker 3: which I've got. I can't make a single thing with
Speaker 3: my hands. It's embarrassing.
Speaker 2: I'm about to work with him on something, and if
Speaker 2: he doesn't make me one of those bulls, I'm not
Speaker 2: going to say anything. I'm not putting it out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, I'm not going to say anything to him.
Speaker 2: And maybe he'll listen to this in here, but but
Speaker 2: if he doesn't, I'm not going to say anything like,
Speaker 2: oh I saw that bowl that you made, or I
Speaker 2: hear that you makes.
Speaker 3: Now you can't just going to wait? Yeah until that
Speaker 3: as you do it publicly on a podcast, absolutely fine,
Speaker 3: it's just us. This will not rest that public.
Speaker 2: But if I get to the day I wrap and
Speaker 2: I don't have one of those balls in my trailer,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw a shit fit.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, it sounds like he's onto bigger projects,
Speaker 3: so you might end up with like a pair of
Speaker 3: pants made of rope or something. It seems like he's
Speaker 3: kind of grown tired of the bowls. I mean, God
Speaker 3: knows what you're gonna get. Yeah, a full suit. Did
Speaker 3: they make a rope suit? Then Tony career chapter change. Okay,
Speaker 3: we've got we've guessed the price. I will actually do
Speaker 3: the calculations, state announce on the internet at some point
Speaker 3: how much this actually costs, and we'll hopefully we're not humiliating. Yeah. Really,
Speaker 3: that would be so embarrassing for all three of us,
Speaker 3: and the network and every the listener would be embarrassed
Speaker 3: as well.
Speaker 2: At the very least, it's one hundred. At least.
Speaker 3: Oh, if this isn't a hundred dollars, this is garb.
Speaker 2: I agree.
Speaker 3: I agree these items look expensive if.
Speaker 2: I think, like especially I'm pointing to the shampoo and
Speaker 2: I feel like this.
Speaker 3: A shampoo in this and I'll say it's like a
Speaker 3: small like lotion sized bottles. It's not one you're paying.
Speaker 2: It's not of Yeah, and I feel like that bag, yeah,
Speaker 2: bag alone is forty. The crystal dog thing is it
Speaker 2: is a big question mark because I feel like it's
Speaker 2: so unnecessary. It could be five dollars or one hundred.
Speaker 3: There's no way that item is going for five dollars
Speaker 3: because you're a pretty category of pet owner that would
Speaker 3: willing to just truly what would create an enormous amount
Speaker 3: of debt for most pet owners.
Speaker 2: Okay, Black Obsidian is a blackcity. Okay, that's what's happening
Speaker 2: in the crystal in there. The crystal alone probably in
Speaker 2: LA would probably cost fifty dollars exactly. And then we've
Speaker 2: got a contraption. Yeah, break that crystal out and oh
Speaker 2: I can't wait? Whatever?
Speaker 3: Do what to do?
Speaker 2: These are yours now, this is to us to regift
Speaker 2: whatever you whatever you want.
Speaker 3: This is the prices right now.
Speaker 2: So basically they're out of my hands. This is exactly
Speaker 2: what I wanted.
Speaker 3: These are going to improve my life in a way
Speaker 3: that I'm going to leap frog you. I'm going to
Speaker 3: run the entertainment business after using this small bag of
Speaker 3: gifts time to play game.
Speaker 2: Whoop.
Speaker 3: We're gonna play a game called Gift you a Curse,
Speaker 3: Gift you a Curse. I need a number between one
Speaker 3: and ten for four. Okay, I have to do the
Speaker 3: lightest calculating right now. You can promote something, recommend something,
Speaker 3: to do whatever you want to.
Speaker 2: I'll be right by. Okay. I will use my time
Speaker 2: to promote a show that I love called Love on
Speaker 2: the Spectrum. Has anyone watched it? Out there? It's so
Speaker 2: lovely and sweet. It's on Netflix. I worried it was
Speaker 2: going to be what's the word exploit exploitative, exploitative or
Speaker 2: off in some way like the producers were going to
Speaker 2: be bad or whatever. It's not. It's lovely, it's wonderful.
Speaker 2: It truly moves me and makes me see the world
Speaker 2: in a different way. I love it so much. I
Speaker 2: just watched the third season the other night, and I really,
Speaker 2: I really am, like every time I watch one of
Speaker 2: those seasons, I'm like a different person afterwards.
Speaker 3: Such a lovely show you've watched, and fun and everybody
Speaker 3: on it's so great, so wonderful.
Speaker 2: I'm crying, I'm laughing, I'm ala.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a fantastic And I've just started season two
Speaker 3: and the word exploitative is maybe one of the most difficult.
Speaker 3: We've got to just find a different word because it's
Speaker 3: to stumble in the middle there. I don't know that
Speaker 3: anyone can just.
Speaker 2: Doesn't It should be exploitive.
Speaker 3: Is it exploitive?
Speaker 2: I think it might be. Wait then, where do I
Speaker 2: get the tutive? Is that?
Speaker 1: Is that one?
Speaker 3: Is that weird words? It's just become its own word,
Speaker 3: or I mean I'm right at my computer here, I
Speaker 3: can just we've all we all jump at our devices.
Speaker 2: Exploitive, exploitive, exploitative.
Speaker 3: Exploitative is a word, and that is the word we're looking.
Speaker 3: And I don't know that exploitive is a word. I
Speaker 3: think exploitive is kind of the Yeah, exploitative, you say it, Well,
Speaker 3: I really I'm.
Speaker 2: Looking at rough draft. Okay, exploitative. Well we did it.
Speaker 3: Okay, this is gift or a curse. I'm going to
Speaker 3: name three things. You're going to tell me if there
Speaker 3: are a gift or a curse? And why there are
Speaker 3: right answers are wrong?
Speaker 2: Answer?
Speaker 3: No, have lost people have one. People have done average jobs,
Speaker 3: so just be careful. Number one, this is a listener
Speaker 3: suggestion from someone named Jesse. Jesse suggested gift her a
Speaker 3: curse breakfast in bed.
Speaker 2: Hi Jesse, First of all, thank you for your statement suggestion. Okay,
Speaker 2: to me, it's a curse. I absolutely love breakfast so much.
Speaker 2: Don't miss it. I don't miss it is what I
Speaker 2: meant by that, I don't skip it.
Speaker 3: I love it.
Speaker 2: It's the obvious thing. It's the crumbs in bed. It's
Speaker 2: the like you're not sitting correctly. You're what are your
Speaker 2: legs folded?
Speaker 3: Where?
Speaker 2: What are you doing? Like? This is not you are
Speaker 2: not comfortable. It's totally a novelty. It's the thing of
Speaker 2: you don't want it. You don't actually want it, you
Speaker 2: think you want it. There are ways to do this
Speaker 2: without doing breakfast in bed on the couch is fine.
Speaker 2: You can still be cozy. You don't have to like
Speaker 2: be at the dinner table, but you're not doing it
Speaker 2: in bed. Don't do it in bed. You will wish
Speaker 2: you didn't. Your butt's gonna be too low, you're gonna
Speaker 2: be sitting crisscross, Damn apple sauce, you're spilling your coffee.
Speaker 2: It's think about it for ten seconds and you know
Speaker 2: that it's it's a a curse. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was like, pass, You're absolutely right.
Speaker 1: Yay.
Speaker 3: The only situation where this is appropriate is the hospital.
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly why And that's a you don't like you
Speaker 2: want to get out of there as soon as possible.
Speaker 3: I don't understand how this thing rose in popularity. It
Speaker 3: doesn't every time. I mean, it's never actually happened to me,
Speaker 3: thank god, but it's one of the I feel like
Speaker 3: it was basically made.
Speaker 2: For like moms. And dads on commercials on commercials. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's basically Mother's day, Father's Day and like post sex
Speaker 2: in a in a in a in a movie. Right yeah,
Speaker 2: but like I made you breakfast in bed? Why is
Speaker 2: it either just post sex or Mother's Day or Father's Day.
Speaker 2: It's either like a hot guy being like I made
Speaker 2: you breakfast in bed, or like a little kid. It's
Speaker 2: a damn pass or it is a curse. It's an
Speaker 2: absolute curse. If you think anything different, you're wrong.
Speaker 3: You're wrong, and you haven't tried it. You're an absolute pervert.
Speaker 3: That's you need to be put on some sort of
Speaker 3: perversion list. And uh, Jesse, I hope that you were
Speaker 3: also on our side for this. Okay, so excellent job
Speaker 3: with that one. Number two gif to a curse becoming
Speaker 3: a prisoner in your own home.
Speaker 2: Okay, this is a tough one because I guess there's
Speaker 2: a few ways of looking at it. Becoming a prisoner
Speaker 2: in your own home. Okay, So if this, like, if
Speaker 2: it's becoming a prisoner in jail or in your own home,
Speaker 2: the gift.
Speaker 3: Is if it's the option between right two.
Speaker 2: If it's being a free person walking the streets or
Speaker 2: becoming a prisoner in your own home. It's a curse.
Speaker 2: Do you unders saying what I'm saying? It depends on
Speaker 2: how you break you out. Well, we're just talking about
Speaker 2: I said a string of words. You've got to nail
Speaker 2: it down. Becoming a prisoner in your own home. There's
Speaker 2: no comma, there's no colon, there's no dot dot dot,
Speaker 2: there's no dash.
Speaker 3: It's just you re emerged to society after ten years
Speaker 3: and say I was a prisoner in my own home.
Speaker 2: That's a curse. It's much better to be a free
Speaker 2: person walking the streets. That's the options you gave me, doll.
Speaker 3: Darcy round.
Speaker 2: No, who gets I mean, how often do you get
Speaker 2: the opportunity to becoming We've had it for the last
Speaker 2: two and a half years. We've been there.
Speaker 3: We've been there an exception. This, what what we've just
Speaker 3: been through was not we were not prisoners in our
Speaker 3: own homes. Becoming a prisoner in your own home, I
Speaker 3: think is a very specific type of drama, like Rapunzel
Speaker 3: kind of azel situation. Maybe you were, uh, couldn't stop
Speaker 3: watching your favorite TV show and so you became a
Speaker 3: prisoner to the TV.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, it's something that.
Speaker 3: Like, you throw that out in conversation. I was a
Speaker 3: prisoner in my own home. Everyone in the room's looking
Speaker 3: at you. You've been through it.
Speaker 2: You have attention on you.
Speaker 3: I mean, if you're somebody, if you're an attention seeker,
Speaker 3: I can give you one hint. Become a prisoner in
Speaker 3: your own home. Okay, that's great for between five days
Speaker 3: and a long years.
Speaker 2: Okay, five days in a long year.
Speaker 3: I think before five days, it's just like, oh, you
Speaker 3: were sick.
Speaker 2: You were sick, you had COVID.
Speaker 3: Yeah, laid out for a few days. After five days,
Speaker 3: you become a prisoner in your own home, and you
Speaker 3: have something to talk about. Nothing ever has to happen
Speaker 3: to you again. You have a conversation topic for years.
Speaker 2: I mean, are you okay? Okay, you just hang out
Speaker 2: at home. Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 3: Courses kind of forced you into your own home and
Speaker 3: you you were trapped. But on the bright side, you
Speaker 3: didn't have to make plans.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's true. Okay, we're gonna agree to disagree on
Speaker 2: this one.
Speaker 3: But I love that for you certainly, not a matter
Speaker 3: of opinion. Uh okay, well, let's see if you can
Speaker 3: turn it around here. This listener wrote in without a name,
Speaker 3: So listener, yeah, the fact that you're not getting credit
Speaker 3: is your problem. But listener wrote in and said, gift
Speaker 3: he a curse, throw the ax date night. So one
Speaker 3: of these things we go and throw axes for a date.
Speaker 2: Is that this? Did this person say that in such
Speaker 2: a weird way? Or do I just not know what?
Speaker 3: I mean?
Speaker 2: What does it say they.
Speaker 3: Throw the axe, throw the date night? Just one string
Speaker 3: of words?
Speaker 2: Is there a place called throw the axe? I actually
Speaker 2: that's interesting because the T and the are capital okay,
Speaker 2: so that must be a place.
Speaker 3: Might be like a chain of places are called throw
Speaker 3: the axe.
Speaker 2: It's like this is as if they're saying, go to
Speaker 2: the move no, no, no, like cinemark like.
Speaker 3: Like date yeah yeah yeah yeah, or why don't we
Speaker 3: do a mark.
Speaker 2: Date garden date night? Like I think that's what they're
Speaker 2: running at. That makes sense. I think I think, yes,
Speaker 2: I'm I'm I think this is a gift. Okay. I
Speaker 2: think it's fun to mix up a date night when
Speaker 2: you do like a like a batting cage's date night
Speaker 2: or a cinema date night, or throw the act date night.
Speaker 2: You always go you know what this was actually really fun,
Speaker 2: and you don't want to do it again. I thought
Speaker 2: I was gonna, yeah, I think this. Yeah, exactly one
Speaker 2: of you is gonna say, you know what, I didn't
Speaker 2: actually want to do this, but I'm really glad we did.
Speaker 2: I just wanted to do our usual thing. But you
Speaker 2: really brought it this night, had something this particular right,
Speaker 2: And for that, you're gonna get it whatever that means
Speaker 2: to you. Huh, maybe more.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: I don't know where you're at with your person, but
Speaker 2: but I do think it's fun in new relationships and
Speaker 2: old to mix it up and also a little bit
Speaker 2: of not compromise. But if your partner is wanting to
Speaker 2: throw the act date night m hm, you might want
Speaker 2: to just try it. It might not be for you,
Speaker 2: but it's going to be a gift as long as
Speaker 2: no one gets killed, as long as no one gets
Speaker 2: axed in the damn head. It's going to be a
Speaker 2: gift to your relationship. Oh maybe shared before you say this.
Speaker 2: It might be a ship. You might both hate it,
Speaker 2: and even that's a gift to the relationship as long
Speaker 2: as you're in it together. A new experience that you're
Speaker 2: in together, you're you're you're communicating, you're experiencing, You're you're
Speaker 2: on the same team about that's a damn gift, babe,
Speaker 2: prove me wrong. Curse. Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 3: I haven't thrown the ax. I've never been on a
Speaker 3: throw the ax date night. But I'm I'm truly just
Speaker 3: getting comfortable with bowling the idea of going somewhere and
Speaker 3: they're allowing me to throw the axe, and like we're
Speaker 3: looking at like what, No, don't take me on the
Speaker 3: date night to throw the ax.
Speaker 1: No.
Speaker 2: I think you're wrong. I think you're wrong.
Speaker 3: I want nothing to do with this. This is a
Speaker 3: trend we're going to look back on in ten years
Speaker 3: and remember throw the ax. Remember throw the axe, and
Speaker 3: now they're all cricket wireless. I don't think so. If
Speaker 3: throw the Ax is a company, my apologies I just have.
Speaker 3: I mean, look, if have you read the face of throwing.
Speaker 2: The exactly if we need to put a sticker over
Speaker 2: throw the axe.
Speaker 3: We know where to go throw the axe.
Speaker 2: Invite me in.
Speaker 3: I'll try throwing the axe and see if I want
Speaker 3: to be your spokes yeah yeah, or spokes model.
Speaker 2: I would have to be the spokes model live yeah,
Speaker 2: spokes model and throw the axe. You know, you know
Speaker 2: obviously who to come to, because I was very pro
Speaker 2: you from the beginning. There's no way you would go
Speaker 2: with him which loves to throw the ax. Is the opportunity,
Speaker 2: so we would actually be pretty good at it. I
Speaker 2: feel like, and I think that's actually have a good attitude.
Speaker 2: I go in and I'm you're already yeah, yeah, don't
Speaker 2: take me to the batting cages. I'll tell you that
Speaker 2: right now, I cannot hit a ball. Take me to
Speaker 2: the bat in cages immediately.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's terrifying to have the essentially a gun shooting,
Speaker 3: but you can.
Speaker 2: You can adjust the speed. Well, no speed of a mull.
Speaker 3: Applying at me is a great speed, all right, Well
Speaker 3: unless it's been rolled on the ground. And I have
Speaker 3: a like a croquete.
Speaker 2: Oh no, that sounds fun. Why don't they have croquete
Speaker 2: cage cage? That sounds great. Take me to the damn
Speaker 2: croquee pops it back at you and you just tap
Speaker 2: it back. That's a little bit like mini golf, ish
Speaker 2: larger mini golf, but mini golf. Just because we have
Speaker 2: many golf doesn't mean we can't have another thing. Okay,
Speaker 2: throw the axe. People, if you're listening, when the company
Speaker 2: an idea for you, come to I'll give you the address.
Speaker 2: The backyard is beautiful, there's two.
Speaker 3: This could be the area for the new croquete.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, I would. I would play. I would play
Speaker 2: croquete cages or whatever we want to call it. I
Speaker 2: think that sounds great. I would totally do that.
Speaker 3: I would love to be trapped in a croquete cage
Speaker 3: for date night.
Speaker 2: I would love to be a prisoner in my own
Speaker 2: croquete cage. Well you got one out of three. Okay, good,
Speaker 2: it's bad. So what happens to me?
Speaker 3: Uh? The listener is furious. Your family has been listening.
Speaker 3: They're like, she was already kind of lying about books,
Speaker 3: and now she gets to the game and just drops
Speaker 3: the ball. I mean, but you did nail it with

Speaker 2: recommend I know this is old hat at this point,
Speaker 2: but really just always order a pancake for the table,
Speaker 2: that's a French toaster or whatever, a.
Speaker 3: Good idea, and then you don't have to commit to
Speaker 3: the full pen.
Speaker 2: Because I don't ever. I almost never want like a
Speaker 2: gigantic plate of pancakes, but I always want a pancake.
Speaker 3: You want a little taste, Get your damn.
Speaker 2: Hash browns and your eggs and a biscuit or whatever,
Speaker 2: and then get a French toast for the table or
Speaker 2: a waffle, it doesn't.
Speaker 3: Matter, smart do it, just do it. And then everybody
Speaker 3: gets a little bit of what they couldn't commit to
Speaker 3: ale mail.

Speaker 3: listeners has some horrible problem in their life, usually about
Speaker 3: gifts or a social situation. I hate it, but I
Speaker 3: am patient and I put up with it. So let's
Speaker 3: answer a question.
Speaker 2: Let's do it.
Speaker 3: Okay, this is hello bridger and disrespectful yet charming guests.
Speaker 2: Kind of right, very nice. I said fuck like seven times.

Speaker 3: of June.
Speaker 2: And look, I'm just.
Speaker 3: Gonna apologize right up top here. This is not coming
Speaker 3: out till July, so it's already. Look not my problem,
Speaker 3: but we always have another June to look forward to.
Speaker 3: Garbage can or something can go out of garbage. Please
Speaker 3: see below for my conundrum. My husband and I got
Speaker 3: married a few years ago on June fourth, which calls
Speaker 3: for a yearly anniversary gift. His birthday is on June
Speaker 3: twenty fourth. Now we are expecting a baby in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty two, which means I am responsible for yet another
Speaker 3: gift for him in June to celebrate Father's Day. Up
Speaker 3: until this year, I have severely struggled with finding two
Speaker 3: separate but thoughtful gifts for the same person so close together.
Speaker 3: Now that Father's Day is thrown in, finding three separate,
Speaker 3: thoughtful gifts is pushing me over the edge. My solution
Speaker 3: is to try and find at least one gift I
Speaker 3: can give him repeatedly for the same celebration every year
Speaker 3: as a tradition, whether it's tickets to its favorite sports
Speaker 3: team or a nice cigar. I'm not sure I could
Speaker 3: use help on the gift itself, or if a tradition
Speaker 3: gift is a bad idea. Please let me know some
Speaker 3: facts about him. He works in construction as an electrician.
Speaker 3: He's an American history buff. He is a huge sports
Speaker 3: guy that loves playing sports and a fan of all
Speaker 3: Major League teams.
Speaker 2: UH.
Speaker 3: He enjoys professional wrestling and monster truck rallies. He also
Speaker 3: loves spending time outside and enjoying a nice evening on
Speaker 3: our front porch. Any thoughts on how to help the
Speaker 3: situation would be greatly appreciated, respectfully. H.
Speaker 2: This is the most hetero man I've ever heard of
Speaker 2: in my life. I'm gonna say, this man has a secret.
Speaker 2: We know what to get on a little thing. With
Speaker 2: all the monster truck rallies, I think we know what
Speaker 2: to get him for his president.
Speaker 3: Hit this man a boyfriend. Let's just put it out there, H.
Speaker 2: For his birthday. Every year, you get him a like
Speaker 2: a trip to province town.
Speaker 3: Or like they're not going along to watch the new baby.
Speaker 3: And let this husband live his life. Gay man is
Speaker 3: a prisoner in his own mind. He's a prisoner in
Speaker 3: his own home. Give for here's a gift. You can
Speaker 3: give him a little freedom. Let him be his damn self.
Speaker 3: He doesn't want to be going to all of these
Speaker 3: things trying.
Speaker 2: To prove his masculinity. This is dark, No, not dark.
Speaker 3: Secret, this secret.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah. The American history buffa at all's so on
Speaker 2: the No, he doesn't care about the Civil War, when
Speaker 2: Revolutionary war or when she just said a sports team
Speaker 2: or a cigar. I'm like, what's up with this man?
Speaker 2: What's going on with him? Going on?
Speaker 3: And well he's backing away. Yeah, he's absolutely backing away.
Speaker 3: Poor H. I mean, my heart does go out to H.
Speaker 3: She's oblivious.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think H needs a present to herself,
Speaker 2: which is I don't know, open her mind a little bit.
Speaker 2: I think there's there's ways around this. This could be great.
Speaker 2: This could be a gift to the relationship. How about
Speaker 2: a new best friend. How about a threesome? That's what
Speaker 2: you're going to get him for damn Father's Day.
Speaker 3: With maybe his favorite athlete. Yes, invite hang around your
Speaker 3: local arena kind of cat call at the baseball players
Speaker 3: or monster truck drivers. I don't know what they look like.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's an attractive lot.
Speaker 2: But they're so cute. You give driver you only see
Speaker 2: the damn truck. Yeah, it's all about let's highlight some
Speaker 2: of these folks driving the truck. I think. Yeah, for
Speaker 2: for one of these gifts, you're going to go to
Speaker 2: a bar. You're gonna you're gonna say we were we
Speaker 2: were looking at you from across the way, wondering what
Speaker 2: you got going on tonight. Can I buy you a drink?
Speaker 2: Can we buy you a drink?
Speaker 3: We have two tickets to a Monster Truck rally, but
Speaker 3: we'd love to do something with the third exactly. And uh, suddenly, everybody,
Speaker 3: and you're gonna learn a lot.
Speaker 2: Yes, this is good. This is a gift.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and hopefully you like are paying the babysitter for
Speaker 3: the entire night. Ye, this is a sleepover baby or
Speaker 3: many babies with the parents, or with your grandma and
Speaker 3: grandpa or what have you.
Speaker 2: And in this case, breakfast and that is okay.
Speaker 3: Breakfast is going to be all over bid. Let's be honest.
Speaker 3: H I mean, I think that it's the only solution
Speaker 3: to this.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Otherwise it's like a professional like a pro wrestling poster. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: Oh god, who do we put on? Who are some
Speaker 3: pro wrestlers? I can't the rock Hulk? Are we going
Speaker 3: to talk about the Hull?
Speaker 2: Queen?
Speaker 3: We don't put the Hulk posters?
Speaker 2: No, but no, I think you I think you know
Speaker 2: she's got the right idea. Just she was. She was
Speaker 2: leading us down. She knew what, she knew what she
Speaker 2: needed to know. She's say it a lot, and we're
Speaker 2: telling you she needed it to be said on the podcast.
Speaker 2: Maybe he's listening, He's like, they're looking at each other.
Speaker 2: Tears are streaming down both of their faces. Thank you

Speaker 2: thick threesome for Father's Day. It's gonna be great.
