<v Speaker 3>I didn't think i'd actually get on here.

0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:17.760
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think anyone would ever call. So we're just

0:00:17.800 --> 0:00:20.480
<v Speaker 1>a couple of people on the phone on We were

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:23.639

0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:36.080
<v Speaker 1>It says here, uh and okay, it says here that

0:00:36.200 --> 0:00:41.640
<v Speaker 1>you believe that one of your roommates slept with Lola's dad.

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:46.320
<v Speaker 1>And at first I read that, I was like, okay,

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:49.159
<v Speaker 1>this is you know, maybe a little bit of you know,

0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:52.440
<v Speaker 1>how can you be so sure? But then it also

0:00:52.600 --> 0:00:58.840
<v Speaker 1>says here that that Lola found evidence on her dad's

0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 1>phone to make her believe this. So I mean, let's

0:01:05.040 --> 0:01:10.679

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>you guys is faint in the background, and one of

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:25.560
<v Speaker 1>you guys is pretty front and center. Let's put Lola

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>front and center, have her hold the phone and Blair

0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:31.400
<v Speaker 1>can can hover over it. Because I feel like this

0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:35.920
<v Speaker 1>is is Lola's story to tell, at least in the beginning.

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:41.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, so yeah, this is a little bit of

0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:42.560
<v Speaker 3>a doozy.

0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:43.160
<v Speaker 4>I admit.

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>So Tommy, what's going on, Lola?

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So I recently transferred to college and this is

0:01:54.840 --> 0:02:00.120
<v Speaker 3>my first time having roommates. So I have five I

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:04.920
<v Speaker 3>have other roommates, well technically sweet mates, but I room

0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 3>with one person. And so the person that I room with, Blair,

0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:16.680
<v Speaker 3>I you know, I told her the entire story because

0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:24.239
<v Speaker 3>one of our other sleep mates, Olivia. She uh, it's

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:29.400
<v Speaker 3>a little complicated. I don't know what exactly happened to

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:33.880
<v Speaker 3>trigger everything, like maybe like I was totally nice to her.

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:37.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't think I did anything bad.

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Hold on, I want to I wanna. I want to

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:45.760
<v Speaker 1>skip to sort of the I want to skip to

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:48.240
<v Speaker 1>what we know. Okay, So, so it's you, how many

0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:50.079
<v Speaker 1>people live in this in this place?

0:02:52.120 --> 0:02:52.480
<v Speaker 5>Okay?

0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:57.720
<v Speaker 3>So I live with Blair, and then there is twoe

0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:02.679
<v Speaker 3>rooms that are seeing rooms to one person just lives

0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:05.040
<v Speaker 3>in that room, and then there's another room at the

0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 3>end and that has two other people in it, and

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:12.120
<v Speaker 3>we share a bathroom a shower.

0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:18.160
<v Speaker 1>And okay, okay, well, so, so Olivia is the one

0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:22.960
<v Speaker 1>that you believe slept with your dad. Yes, okay, So

0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:26.080
<v Speaker 1>what is it that makes you But you said you

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:28.840
<v Speaker 1>found something on your dad's phone to make you believe

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:32.480
<v Speaker 1>that Olivia slept with him. What is it that you

0:03:32.520 --> 0:03:34.880
<v Speaker 1>found on his phone that made you believe that?

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:41.320
<v Speaker 3>So it was Olivia's phone. I so I was on

0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 3>a phone because I think I was just on Snapchat

0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:48.120
<v Speaker 3>or something. I asked to borrow her phone for you know,

0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:50.800
<v Speaker 3>I forgot, but so I was on her phone bash

0:03:50.840 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 3>just sick, and all of a sudden, like a message

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:57.080
<v Speaker 3>pops up and it's like heart emojis or something. But

0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:00.840
<v Speaker 3>you know, I click on it because you know, element

0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:03.839
<v Speaker 3>I'm a little nosy, So I click on it, right,

0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:10.960
<v Speaker 3>and the contact name is something like baby or like

0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:18.000
<v Speaker 3>heart emojis, you know, something cheesy and corny whatever, and

0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.280
<v Speaker 3>and you know, I click on it. I'm like, who

0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:23.160
<v Speaker 3>is this guy? Maybe I know him? So I click

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 3>on it and I recognize the number and it's my

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:36.039
<v Speaker 3>bad number, and so I'm like, okay something. I'm like,

0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.880
<v Speaker 3>obviously somebody's done. So I scroll through the messages and

0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:45.039
<v Speaker 3>I'm saying, like there's a lot of like I miss

0:04:45.160 --> 0:04:50.080
<v Speaker 3>you can't wait to see you next week heart emojis,

0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 3>some little inappropriate comments. And so I mean Olivia and

0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.400
<v Speaker 3>my dad they've met before, because, you know, for moving

0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.599
<v Speaker 3>my dad came up to the dorm, introduced himself to

0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:10.080
<v Speaker 3>my roommates. But I didn't notice anything weird. I don't

0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 3>know how they got each other's numbers, don't know. That's

0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.479
<v Speaker 3>the only thing that you know, I can think of that.

0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 3>You know, they met on moving day to really like,

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:25.520
<v Speaker 3>you know, exchange numbers. Maybe he came up once after that, like,

0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:30.719
<v Speaker 3>but I didn't see them inntor act at all. I

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:33.920
<v Speaker 3>don't know. Just something is fishy. And I told there

0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:34.240
<v Speaker 3>all of this.

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:37.279
<v Speaker 6>But we did put our phone numbers up just because

0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 6>we all admit it. It's like, on the first day,

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:41.799
<v Speaker 6>we all decided we should put each other's phone numbers

0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 6>up on we have like a little like mini markerboard

0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 6>on our fridge. So we each all did that.

0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:51.040
<v Speaker 1>You think maybe, so we think we think maybe Lola's

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:53.960
<v Speaker 1>dad got Olivia's number from this whiteboard where everyone has

0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:54.599
<v Speaker 1>their phone numbers.

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:57.240
<v Speaker 6>He like noticed her and was attracted to her.

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 7>And then so.

0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:03.880
<v Speaker 1>So so we have so you so so so what

0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 1>you're saying is correct. You have evidence, not necessarily evidence

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 1>that they have met up and they have slapped together

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.560
<v Speaker 1>and all this and all that, but you have evidence

0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:15.240
<v Speaker 1>that they are in uh, you know, a form of

0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:17.599
<v Speaker 1>flirtatious romantic sexual contact.

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:22.040
<v Speaker 3>I I didn't.

0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:23.000
<v Speaker 2>I was dumb.

0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:26.120
<v Speaker 3>I didn't take screenshots with my phone.

0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Well forgetting about well, forgeting about screenshots. We're not talking

0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:31.240
<v Speaker 1>about hard evidence here. I'm just saying you've seen it

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:31.839
<v Speaker 1>for yourself.

0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:34.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've seen it for myself.

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:39.600
<v Speaker 1>Like, okay, so, so have you talked to your dad

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.479
<v Speaker 1>about this? I have not.

0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:45.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't know how I would talk to him or

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:50.520
<v Speaker 3>my roommate. Like it's you know, I don't know too

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:57.160
<v Speaker 3>much about my parents' marriage. I you know, I I

0:06:57.200 --> 0:07:00.719
<v Speaker 3>admit I don't really have the best relationship but them.

0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:04.960
<v Speaker 3>So I don't really know what's going on. Like I

0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:05.360
<v Speaker 3>don't know.

0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:06.160
<v Speaker 8>Maybe they're.

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 3>Marriage, I don't know.

0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 7>And so.

0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:18.360
<v Speaker 3>I'm just really like confused as too, Like what to

0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 3>do now, Like what do I say to my roommate,

0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:24.640
<v Speaker 3>to my dad and my mom? Do I just keep

0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 3>my mouth shut? They are married, but I don't know

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:38.000
<v Speaker 3>if they're like, you know, really like thinking about getting

0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:43.160
<v Speaker 3>a divorce because I don't think my dad is that

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:44.400
<v Speaker 3>kind of man.

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Really, well, listen, I mean, how are you okay? So,

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 1>in response to you not knowing what to do about this,

0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:56.560
<v Speaker 1>how do you feel about the situation as a whole? Like,

0:07:56.600 --> 0:08:02.000
<v Speaker 1>what are your thoughts about your dad sleeping with your roommate?

0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:03.600
<v Speaker 1>How does that make you feel? What do you think

0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 1>about it? You know? I mean, what's your what's your

0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:09.360
<v Speaker 1>take on it? How does it make you feel? You

0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:13.120
<v Speaker 1>think about it for before before we before we think

0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:14.080
<v Speaker 1>about what you should do.

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:19.840
<v Speaker 9>I honestly don't feel good about this.

0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:23.400
<v Speaker 3>I really tried not to think about it at all

0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:30.640
<v Speaker 3>because it's just h so like such a big issue.

0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:33.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, like how you feel like obviously this

0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:37.920
<v Speaker 3>is wrong, Obviously something needs to be said or happened

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:43.920
<v Speaker 3>or I don't know, but I obviously this is not

0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:46.760
<v Speaker 3>my deal situation. I don't know.

0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:53.320
<v Speaker 1>M you said your you said your relationship with your

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:58.320
<v Speaker 1>with your parents is already not uh uh, you're not

0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 1>super close with them?

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:06.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm not super close with them.

0:09:06.720 --> 0:09:06.920
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:07.679
<v Speaker 10>It's just.

0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 8>It's not that, you know, we hate each other. It's

0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:16.640
<v Speaker 8>just it's not like a good relationship. You know, I

0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:19.679
<v Speaker 8>just felt like, you know, I was just living with

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:25.440
<v Speaker 8>them and they're just not really not really there for me,

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 8>so you know, I'm just kind of happy to get

0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:29.360
<v Speaker 8>out of the house.

0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:33.839
<v Speaker 1>Do you want Do you want to get involved with this?

0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:36.559
<v Speaker 10>No?

0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:41.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't. I feel like a good idea is just

0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:48.439
<v Speaker 3>to like forget what ever happened, okay, And you know,

0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:52.920
<v Speaker 3>but I feel like the right thing is to say something.

0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:56.240
<v Speaker 3>So I don't know if I should be selfish and

0:09:56.360 --> 0:10:04.000
<v Speaker 3>not saying anything, or like possibly ruin like my relationship

0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:05.800
<v Speaker 3>with my roommates and with my family.

0:10:06.679 --> 0:10:08.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you need to worry about ruining your

0:10:08.679 --> 0:10:14.280
<v Speaker 1>relationship with uh, with your roommates. You know. I think

0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:18.000
<v Speaker 1>she's sort of made her own bed. But it's interesting

0:10:18.000 --> 0:10:20.240
<v Speaker 1>because you very you you, And the reason why I

0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:25.200
<v Speaker 1>was asking you about your thoughts is because you you

0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:29.840
<v Speaker 1>appear not to be reacting very viscerally to this, and

0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.439
<v Speaker 1>when I ask you if you want to get involved

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:35.120
<v Speaker 1>with this, you need your your gut reaction is say no,

0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:37.960
<v Speaker 1>you don't want to get involved with this, but you

0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:43.600
<v Speaker 1>feel like you have a moral obligation to And I

0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I'm not gonna this this this phone call

0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:47.880
<v Speaker 1>will end without me telling you what to do, because

0:10:47.880 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't really have an opinion on what you should do.

0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know. I don't know if I don't

0:10:56.040 --> 0:11:03.600
<v Speaker 1>know what your moral obligate is in this, or if

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:07.920
<v Speaker 1>you have any obligation at all, but I don't know.

0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I hope that talking about it at least got you

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:14.480
<v Speaker 1>to like sort of consider your feelings about it, and

0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:20.200
<v Speaker 1>your feelings about it not just in terms of, you know,

0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 1>some sort of objective moral standard that you're trying to

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 1>hold yourself against, and also just to your own personal

0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:33.120
<v Speaker 1>perspective on the situation, and you know, sort of using

0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:37.240
<v Speaker 1>all of that to inform whether or not you decide

0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:38.720
<v Speaker 1>to get involved.

0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:47.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, I've actually known this for a found message a

0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:51.360
<v Speaker 3>couple of weeks ago, and immediately I talked to Claire

0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:55.520
<v Speaker 3>about it, and you know, we've been keeping like an

0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:56.840
<v Speaker 3>I on Olivia and.

0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:00.559
<v Speaker 1>I haven't Here's what I will say. He will be,

0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:02.160
<v Speaker 1>He will be, he will he will be. Sort of

0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:05.800
<v Speaker 1>my last thoughts about this is you say you're keeping

0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 1>an eye on Olivia. You're kind of turning it into

0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:10.760
<v Speaker 1>some kind of spy game, and it's like the only

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:13.360
<v Speaker 1>thing I I I if I had to give some

0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:18.200
<v Speaker 1>sort of advice here, I would say to you, figure

0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:20.760
<v Speaker 1>out what you know. You're trying to figure out what

0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:25.240
<v Speaker 1>to do. Stick to a plan, right, Because if you

0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:27.600
<v Speaker 1>don't want to get involved, if you really don't want

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:29.360
<v Speaker 1>to get involved, you feel like it's just going to

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:33.320
<v Speaker 1>like mentally fuck with you to get involved, then don't

0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:35.360
<v Speaker 1>get involved. If you do want to get involved, and

0:12:35.400 --> 0:12:36.839
<v Speaker 1>you feel like you should get involved, you feel like

0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:39.280
<v Speaker 1>you're morally obligated to get involved, whatever your reason is,

0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:45.000
<v Speaker 1>then get involved. But sitting on the fence about it

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:48.720
<v Speaker 1>doesn't feel like the right move to me at least.

0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:50.520
<v Speaker 1>But I'm also happy to hear that it seems like

0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:51.959
<v Speaker 1>you've got a good friend to talk about all this

0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:57.960
<v Speaker 1>stuff with that is closer to the situation, so you know,

0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:02.960
<v Speaker 1>show ste hood and whatnot. But thank you for sharing,

0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.079
<v Speaker 1>Lola and Blair, and good luck to you guys.

0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:06.720
<v Speaker 5>Thank you.

0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:10.200
<v Speaker 3>Thanks. I'll update you if anything happens.

0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:10.840
<v Speaker 4>Hello.

0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.319
<v Speaker 1>Hello is this Travis?

0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:18.800
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, this is Travis. Hide GEK.

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:19.800
<v Speaker 11>How's your not going?

0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:21.960
<v Speaker 1>How's my night going?

0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:24.440
<v Speaker 7>Was a little bird going?

0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Mine is going pretty good? Travis. It says here that

0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you're trying to figure out whether or not you're a furry.

0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:35.840
<v Speaker 11>Yes, that is correct, And I figured, like, I don't

0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:38.520
<v Speaker 11>really know any furries, Like none of my friends are furries,

0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:40.800
<v Speaker 11>or if they are, I don't know it. So you're

0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.240
<v Speaker 11>kind of like the next best option I have. Because

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.959
<v Speaker 11>I believe you're a man wearing a get Go suit.

0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:48.360
<v Speaker 11>I've also heard your real get Go I'm getting kind

0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:51.199
<v Speaker 11>of like conflicting reports, but I figure, you know, I

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:52.560
<v Speaker 11>don't know if you're a furry, but I figure has

0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 11>a unique perspective for me.

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Well, it's funny you asked this because I have

0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:58.640
<v Speaker 1>a I have an interesting relationship with this, where like

0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:02.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't identify with I don't identify myself as a furry.

0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:06.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't take any part in any kind in the

0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:12.319
<v Speaker 1>furry culture or the furry community. I really have nothing

0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:17.800
<v Speaker 1>to do with furries. But it is undeniable that I

0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:21.560
<v Speaker 1>am a person wearing an animal costume right now. So

0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:24.720
<v Speaker 1>there really isn't all that much of a difference between

0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:29.480
<v Speaker 1>me and them. I cannot create any wall of artificial

0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:36.200
<v Speaker 1>difference between us. But enough about me.

0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, well, you.

0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Think you might be a fury? Why do you think

0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:41.640
<v Speaker 1>you might be a furry?

0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:46.440
<v Speaker 11>I think It's kind of like a lot of little

0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:49.480
<v Speaker 11>things over time that have been like building on each other.

0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 11>Like I've always enjoyed, you know, like media and content

0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:55.480
<v Speaker 11>that involves anther animals, but I never really like more

0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:59.120
<v Speaker 11>than the average person, you know. But there's a lot

0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:02.040
<v Speaker 11>of little things adding up that I'm like, Now I'm like.

0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:03.680
<v Speaker 7>Could I be a furry? Am I afferry?

0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:05.840
<v Speaker 11>And then like trying to kind of interrogate that question,

0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.320
<v Speaker 11>you know, like I would feel more at peace if

0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:11.320
<v Speaker 11>I could be like definitively yes or you know, maybe not,

0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.120
<v Speaker 11>but I've got you know, I could I could elaborate

0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:16.160
<v Speaker 11>on that timeline if that helps.

0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:23.920
<v Speaker 1>M Okay, So you think because you watch a lot

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 1>of media and content with anthropomorphic animals that you might

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:31.480
<v Speaker 1>be afferred, Well, here's what we here's what we have

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:34.160
<v Speaker 1>to do first, and we can look at this from

0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:41.400
<v Speaker 1>many different perspectives. One is this this whole thing of

0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:46.440
<v Speaker 1>am I affer? Am I not? Why do you need

0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:49.840
<v Speaker 1>to label yourself? And it's a legitimate question. You might

0:15:49.880 --> 0:15:53.040
<v Speaker 1>have a legitimate desire to label yourself because from what

0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:58.160
<v Speaker 1>I gain about the furry community, the pro of being

0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:01.000
<v Speaker 1>a part of the furry community is that you're a

0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:04.560
<v Speaker 1>part of a community of people who like the same

0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:07.840
<v Speaker 1>thing that you like. Same as a guy wearing a

0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:13.920
<v Speaker 1>La Dodgers jersey and going to the games and hanging

0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:16.840
<v Speaker 1>out with other sports fans. It's all it's all the

0:16:16.880 --> 0:16:21.440
<v Speaker 1>same thing, right, just identifying with something and being a

0:16:21.440 --> 0:16:23.320
<v Speaker 1>part of a community of other people that identify with

0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:27.480
<v Speaker 1>that thing. Why is that? Is that what's attractive to you?

0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:28.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:16:28.320 --> 0:16:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that identifies I think being part of the community.

0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:36.000
<v Speaker 11>I think it's uh, it's kind of like, you know,

0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:37.920
<v Speaker 11>I feel like I'm riding this train, or I realized

0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:41.160
<v Speaker 11>I'm on this train, and I you know, maybe I

0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:42.720
<v Speaker 11>woke up from a nap, but don't have the orinary.

0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:44.440
<v Speaker 11>I don't know what stop I can get off on,

0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:45.640
<v Speaker 11>you know, and so I don't know if I was

0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 11>trying to like get up on the stop where I am,

0:16:47.960 --> 0:16:49.680
<v Speaker 11>you know, like I consume a lot of his content

0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:53.200
<v Speaker 11>and that's cool, or like if I could be getting

0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:55.120
<v Speaker 11>off on a stop, or like should I go to

0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:58.000
<v Speaker 11>some conventions, should I buy a first suit? You know,

0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:00.240
<v Speaker 11>Like I don't think the idea needs important to me.

0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 11>But as I've been considering this, you know, been like

0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 11>watching some documentaries and like trying to wrap my head

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:08.439
<v Speaker 11>around the subculture, and I'm like, it does seem kind

0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.399
<v Speaker 11>of fun, and fury seem kind of like some rad people,

0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:13.800
<v Speaker 11>you know, like maybe I would jive with that, But

0:17:13.880 --> 0:17:16.200
<v Speaker 11>I think I'm kind of just wondering, like how deep

0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:19.600
<v Speaker 11>should I dive here? You know, like should I should

0:17:19.640 --> 0:17:22.240
<v Speaker 11>I go to a furry convention when the pandemic's less

0:17:22.240 --> 0:17:24.159
<v Speaker 11>of a thing? You know, See, if I'm actually into that,

0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:27.240
<v Speaker 11>I don't know. I also, you know, I just think

0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:30.520
<v Speaker 11>it's I think it's just it's a fun it's fun

0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:31.439
<v Speaker 11>strand to follow.

0:17:32.840 --> 0:17:36.360
<v Speaker 1>H Well, look, I see no I mean I see

0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:41.800
<v Speaker 1>no downside too. If you are curious, if you think

0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:45.800
<v Speaker 1>that you might jive with other people into the subculture,

0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:51.240
<v Speaker 1>then go to the conventions, watch join the subreddits, get

0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:53.919
<v Speaker 1>involved in the community. I don't. I don't. The only

0:17:56.359 --> 0:18:01.560
<v Speaker 1>the only downside, it's not a real downside, is if

0:18:01.880 --> 0:18:04.560
<v Speaker 1>let me ask, are you afraid? Are you afraid of

0:18:04.600 --> 0:18:07.240
<v Speaker 1>identifying as a furry? Are you afraid of being judged

0:18:07.320 --> 0:18:08.000
<v Speaker 1>or ridiculed?

0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:12.040
<v Speaker 11>I mean, I wouldn't say I'm afraid of it, but

0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:15.159
<v Speaker 11>it's definitely like something I think about because I think

0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:17.239
<v Speaker 11>like part of the question of like, you know, am

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:18.199
<v Speaker 11>I affrared? Am I not?

0:18:18.440 --> 0:18:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Is?

0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:21.080
<v Speaker 11>I've realized like some of the stuff that stirred up

0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:25.000
<v Speaker 11>these questions is more like me having conversations with people

0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:27.760
<v Speaker 11>who are like shitting on furries, and then I realize

0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:29.919
<v Speaker 11>I have like a knee jerk reaction to kind of

0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:32.359
<v Speaker 11>like defend phraries. Y'd be like, you know, like what

0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:35.080
<v Speaker 11>are you saying here? And I'm already queer, so like

0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:37.960
<v Speaker 11>I'm already used to kind of just like not really

0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:40.920
<v Speaker 11>giving a fuck what normalis think I should or shouldn't

0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:43.160
<v Speaker 11>be into. And I think maybe like that knee jerk

0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:46.600
<v Speaker 11>reaction is partly like you know, siding with the underdogs.

0:18:47.760 --> 0:18:49.440
<v Speaker 11>But it is kind of weird because it's like as

0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:51.120
<v Speaker 11>far as you know the extent of being queer, it's

0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:53.320
<v Speaker 11>like most of my friends are not weird about that

0:18:53.359 --> 0:18:55.080
<v Speaker 11>at all, but like some of my good friends are

0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:56.359
<v Speaker 11>weird about the fairy shit.

0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:56.639
<v Speaker 8>You know.

0:18:56.680 --> 0:18:58.960
<v Speaker 11>It's like, I don't know if you've seen bet Stars, right,

0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:01.320
<v Speaker 11>it's kind of a furry in me, It's a good

0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:04.399
<v Speaker 11>fucking show. And I know some people who are like, oh,

0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:05.400
<v Speaker 11>I'm not going to watch.

0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:07.040
<v Speaker 12>That because it's like a furry show.

0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:09.720
<v Speaker 11>And I'm like, it doesn't like, I know people who

0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:13.000
<v Speaker 11>are like afraid to watch content that is fucking good

0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:17.080
<v Speaker 11>because they want to distance themselves from what could be completed.

0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:17.320
<v Speaker 12>A furry thing.

0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:20.879
<v Speaker 11>And it's like a weird it's a weird thing for

0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:22.760
<v Speaker 11>me because like I haven't actually caught of that shit

0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:25.040
<v Speaker 11>for being queer. But I'm like, oh, I have friends

0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:27.639
<v Speaker 11>that would throw shade if I was a furry, So

0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:28.679
<v Speaker 11>it's it's kind of strange.

0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:33.959
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean, I mean, Travis, Travis, I think that,

0:19:34.840 --> 0:19:37.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you sound like a guy who is pretty

0:19:37.200 --> 0:19:39.040
<v Speaker 1>good and not caring what other people think about him.

0:19:40.040 --> 0:19:44.520
<v Speaker 1>And I think you should take that ship to the bank.

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:46.960
<v Speaker 1>That's a good life to live, that's a good headspace

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:48.399
<v Speaker 1>to be in. And god damn it, go to one

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:50.600
<v Speaker 1>of these furry conventions. I see no downside.

0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:56.560
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, no, I appreciate that. I think I will when

0:19:56.600 --> 0:20:00.800
<v Speaker 11>I'm not gonna get OVID again. That's That's the other

0:20:00.840 --> 0:20:02.919
<v Speaker 11>thing is I don't actually have a persona, and I

0:20:02.920 --> 0:20:05.359
<v Speaker 11>don't know, like you know, so I feel you have

0:20:05.480 --> 0:20:07.119
<v Speaker 11>kind of gotten my foot in the door, you know,

0:20:07.160 --> 0:20:08.600
<v Speaker 11>but I'm not all the way there, and I don't

0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:13.280
<v Speaker 11>I don't think I'm like necessarily trying to like decide,

0:20:13.600 --> 0:20:15.600
<v Speaker 11>you know, I don't know. I have like a key

0:20:15.760 --> 0:20:18.639
<v Speaker 11>do me of like a raccoon, But I don't know.

0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:22.200
<v Speaker 1>A raccoon, all right, Because here's the thing. Here's the thing,

0:20:22.320 --> 0:20:25.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm not a furry. I don't think I'm gonna I

0:20:25.440 --> 0:20:27.639
<v Speaker 1>actually I would consider going to convention just to like

0:20:27.680 --> 0:20:30.639
<v Speaker 1>do some interviews or something. I'd be fun. But I

0:20:31.480 --> 0:20:35.719
<v Speaker 1>objectively running around in a big old raccoon costume, this

0:20:35.800 --> 0:20:40.520
<v Speaker 1>sounds kind of fun. I think that you should not

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:44.160
<v Speaker 1>reprive yourself with that experience if it is an experience

0:20:44.600 --> 0:20:46.399
<v Speaker 1>that you wish to partake in.

0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:53.080
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, no, I think yeah, I think you're right. And also, yeah,

0:20:53.119 --> 0:20:56.840
<v Speaker 11>someone else asked you in the past, Uh, someone's asked

0:20:56.840 --> 0:20:59.000
<v Speaker 11>you before if you're going the furry conventions and that too.

0:20:59.000 --> 0:20:59.840
<v Speaker 11>I think you should do that.

0:21:00.880 --> 0:21:02.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I would consider it just to do like some

0:21:02.960 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 1>streams or something. I think that'd be pretty fun. But

0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:08.399
<v Speaker 1>we'll see. I'll see you at the next one. Oliver,

0:21:08.480 --> 0:21:10.760
<v Speaker 1>take care, No crap, I called you Oliver? Why do

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I call you Oliver? I haven't talked to a differentlive

0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:13.920
<v Speaker 1>all right.

0:21:13.840 --> 0:21:17.520
<v Speaker 11>Well, my name on too, So let's long get it's

0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:18.560
<v Speaker 11>just the thing to night have.

0:21:18.640 --> 0:21:19.040
<v Speaker 13>A good name.

0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Here's the thing. It's all these things. They all all

0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:27.600
<v Speaker 1>these things. They all serve the same function. Intramural flag, football,

0:21:28.760 --> 0:21:44.400
<v Speaker 1>dungeons and dragons, crypto currency, furries, Marvel comics, lacrosse, uh

0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:48.640
<v Speaker 1>spelling bees, they're they're all they all do the same

0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:53.160
<v Speaker 1>bowling groups. It's all the same. It's all the same thing.

0:21:53.359 --> 0:21:56.480
<v Speaker 1>It's all the same. Thing is just people who like

0:21:56.600 --> 0:22:01.880
<v Speaker 1>the same thing getting together, talking about it and being

0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:05.879
<v Speaker 1>about it. And it's fine. What bothers is me all

0:22:05.920 --> 0:22:10.560
<v Speaker 1>the time is that people will like rip on individual

0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:15.879
<v Speaker 1>things when the underlying theme of all of these groups

0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:20.479
<v Speaker 1>is the same. It's just different ways to bring people together.

0:22:21.720 --> 0:22:22.000
<v Speaker 10>Hello.

0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Hello, Hi, is this baby Bear?

0:22:31.200 --> 0:22:32.400
<v Speaker 2>Yes, this is baby Bear.

0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Baby Bear. It says here that you have been exploring

0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:39.600
<v Speaker 1>hypnosis with your partner.

0:22:40.440 --> 0:22:48.120
<v Speaker 9>Yes, yeah, so I have. Well, first of all, it's

0:22:48.119 --> 0:22:51.120
<v Speaker 9>only been an idea. So I've actually been exploring pup

0:22:51.200 --> 0:22:56.720
<v Speaker 9>space with my partner. I feel like I resonate with

0:22:57.240 --> 0:22:59.679
<v Speaker 9>being a pup. I've come to find that out as

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:02.199
<v Speaker 9>in the life like six months or so, and so

0:23:02.720 --> 0:23:06.159
<v Speaker 9>with that, sometimes I don't want to think and I

0:23:06.160 --> 0:23:09.440
<v Speaker 9>don't want to be an adult and I just want

0:23:09.480 --> 0:23:12.679
<v Speaker 9>to be a pup. So along with that, my boyfriend

0:23:13.440 --> 0:23:18.399
<v Speaker 9>had suggested hypnosis to kind of help me put me

0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:19.440
<v Speaker 9>more into that space.

0:23:20.280 --> 0:23:28.320
<v Speaker 2>And so I.

0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:29.200
<v Speaker 9>I'm kind of like nervous to kind of delve into it.

0:23:29.320 --> 0:23:35.320
<v Speaker 9>I'm not entirely sure why, but I don't even Yeah,

0:23:35.359 --> 0:23:37.480
<v Speaker 9>I'm just I'm just kind of nervous.

0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:48.600
<v Speaker 1>So you are not interested in so so you are

0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:56.640
<v Speaker 1>interested in the abandonment for at least a momentary bit

0:23:56.640 --> 0:24:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of time of your human senses and your human brain

0:24:03.160 --> 0:24:06.840
<v Speaker 1>into a dog like state via hypnosis.

0:24:07.320 --> 0:24:11.719
<v Speaker 9>Yes, m hm h, because I already kind of like

0:24:11.880 --> 0:24:15.639
<v Speaker 9>do it, like my carrier characteristics kind of line up

0:24:15.680 --> 0:24:18.560
<v Speaker 9>with it already like part of my personality, and I

0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:21.760
<v Speaker 9>feel like with hypnosis that would just take it like

0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:26.560
<v Speaker 9>a step further. And I listened to this podcast the

0:24:26.560 --> 0:24:30.240
<v Speaker 9>other day and this guy's names case Kenny, and he

0:24:30.640 --> 0:24:32.680
<v Speaker 9>said something that really stuck with me, and it said,

0:24:32.720 --> 0:24:35.480
<v Speaker 9>never stop chasing your curiosity. And I felt that was

0:24:35.520 --> 0:24:38.920
<v Speaker 9>more powerful than don't ever stop chasing your dreams, because

0:24:38.920 --> 0:24:41.000
<v Speaker 9>that could be like really scary for people and like

0:24:42.440 --> 0:24:45.959
<v Speaker 9>very almost like broad so any when he said that,

0:24:46.000 --> 0:24:47.800
<v Speaker 9>I was like, well, if I'm curious about it, I

0:24:47.840 --> 0:24:50.760
<v Speaker 9>should just do it. But at the same time, I

0:24:50.840 --> 0:24:54.159
<v Speaker 9>just I feel like, not necessarily not reservations, I just

0:24:54.760 --> 0:24:56.080
<v Speaker 9>I don't know what I'm stepping.

0:24:55.760 --> 0:25:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Into and what is appealing to you about becoming a.

0:25:03.000 --> 0:25:12.320
<v Speaker 9>Dog, being care free, getting out of overthinking all the time.

0:25:12.560 --> 0:25:19.000
<v Speaker 9>And I deal with bipolar, so like when I get

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:21.199
<v Speaker 9>into my low it can last a lot longer than

0:25:21.200 --> 0:25:26.360
<v Speaker 9>when I'm on my highs, and I feel like kind

0:25:26.400 --> 0:25:29.800
<v Speaker 9>of escaping, not even necessarily escaping, but just kind of

0:25:30.320 --> 0:25:33.359
<v Speaker 9>flipping that switch and being just the more care free,

0:25:33.520 --> 0:25:38.399
<v Speaker 9>care free, playful, don't really care what people think about me.

0:25:39.480 --> 0:25:41.720
<v Speaker 9>If I want to wag my tail, wiggle my butt,

0:25:41.760 --> 0:25:43.120
<v Speaker 9>I want to be able to do that the show

0:25:43.200 --> 0:25:47.480
<v Speaker 9>that I'm happy, you know, and just kind of almost

0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:52.919
<v Speaker 9>like a healthier escapism than kind of derailing into my

0:25:53.080 --> 0:25:56.320
<v Speaker 9>negative thoughts or that kind of negative space.

0:25:57.200 --> 0:26:00.880
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm. You know, I'm not going to lie to you.

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I absolutely see where you're coming from. When I look

0:26:04.040 --> 0:26:11.240
<v Speaker 1>at dogs, they absolutely seem significantly happier than humans, very present,

0:26:12.080 --> 0:26:15.520
<v Speaker 1>very in the moment, not thinking about the past, not

0:26:15.560 --> 0:26:19.000
<v Speaker 1>thinking about the future, merely focused on the life that

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:23.480
<v Speaker 1>they are living. At the current second that they are

0:26:23.520 --> 0:26:27.520
<v Speaker 1>living it, and I can see what is attractive about

0:26:27.520 --> 0:26:36.000
<v Speaker 1>that headspace. Tell me what is the process of this

0:26:36.119 --> 0:26:37.119
<v Speaker 1>hypnosis look like?

0:26:41.160 --> 0:26:46.200
<v Speaker 9>Well, I'm a beginner, so I don't really know fully

0:26:46.240 --> 0:26:50.400
<v Speaker 9>all the details yet or would really know how to

0:26:50.440 --> 0:26:54.399
<v Speaker 9>like confidently or be able to explain it exactly maybe

0:26:54.440 --> 0:26:57.200
<v Speaker 9>how it would be, because I feel like if I

0:26:57.600 --> 0:27:00.520
<v Speaker 9>don't want to give any misinformation, but it's different for everybody.

0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:05.679
<v Speaker 9>I feel like for me personally, it would be maybe

0:27:05.720 --> 0:27:09.879
<v Speaker 9>like a word that would trigger like, let's say, hi,

0:27:10.000 --> 0:27:13.560
<v Speaker 9>pup right, and that would like take me from being

0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:17.399
<v Speaker 9>to my name is Brianna being Brianna to being pups

0:27:18.400 --> 0:27:20.879
<v Speaker 9>and then just kind of being in that space for

0:27:20.960 --> 0:27:24.000
<v Speaker 9>a while where I'm just a puff, like not even

0:27:24.040 --> 0:27:26.199
<v Speaker 9>necessarily a dog that's just kind of chilled, but like

0:27:26.320 --> 0:27:31.720
<v Speaker 9>just just a cute, little fun, care free pup, and

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:33.919
<v Speaker 9>then being in that space for a while with my

0:27:34.160 --> 0:27:40.200
<v Speaker 9>partner of course, and uh, because you know he accepts

0:27:40.359 --> 0:27:43.040
<v Speaker 9>me for that and he's helped me to explore that

0:27:43.200 --> 0:27:48.960
<v Speaker 9>more so that's I don't know if I'm just kind

0:27:48.960 --> 0:27:51.520
<v Speaker 9>of rambling and didn't really answer.

0:27:51.200 --> 0:27:55.040
<v Speaker 14>Your question, but no, so you're trying to that's kind

0:27:55.040 --> 0:27:58.440
<v Speaker 14>of what's besides yourself to a point where your partner

0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:01.720
<v Speaker 14>can say a phrase and it bring you into this

0:28:02.200 --> 0:28:02.880
<v Speaker 14>state of mind.

0:28:02.960 --> 0:28:06.439
<v Speaker 1>So then I have another question. Are you afraid of

0:28:06.600 --> 0:28:12.640
<v Speaker 1>the possibility that you will be permanently hypnotized into a

0:28:12.720 --> 0:28:19.080
<v Speaker 1>pup and that you will lose Brianna?

0:28:19.800 --> 0:28:20.520
<v Speaker 15>Kind of.

0:28:22.440 --> 0:28:27.280
<v Speaker 9>Let's see, Like I do have some reservations in that sense,

0:28:27.400 --> 0:28:29.600
<v Speaker 9>Like and I know that my partner would do this

0:28:29.640 --> 0:28:32.640
<v Speaker 9>because I completely trust him, But at the same time,

0:28:32.680 --> 0:28:34.480
<v Speaker 9>I kind of have like, just like this little thought

0:28:34.520 --> 0:28:36.440
<v Speaker 9>in the back of my head, like because I've seen

0:28:36.680 --> 0:28:40.160
<v Speaker 9>different movies and shows and stuff where like people will

0:28:40.160 --> 0:28:43.040
<v Speaker 9>get put under hypnosis, maybe not even knowing it, or

0:28:43.080 --> 0:28:45.440
<v Speaker 9>they do and they think it's for different, that there

0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:52.240
<v Speaker 9>the intention behind it is different, and then being manipulated

0:28:52.320 --> 0:28:54.600
<v Speaker 9>or tricked into being hypnotized to be doing other things

0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:58.840
<v Speaker 9>that weren't consented. I think that's kind of where it.

0:28:59.800 --> 0:29:01.760
<v Speaker 1>But I'm not talking about the idea that you can

0:29:01.800 --> 0:29:04.240
<v Speaker 1>get hypnotized into something else. I'm talking about the idea

0:29:04.280 --> 0:29:09.760
<v Speaker 1>that you get hypnotized into being a dog, but your

0:29:09.920 --> 0:29:14.560
<v Speaker 1>partner is unable to hypnotize you back into being You

0:29:14.560 --> 0:29:23.120
<v Speaker 1>said your name was said Bianna. Yeah, unable to yourself,

0:29:23.640 --> 0:29:26.200
<v Speaker 1>and so you are permanently a dog. How I mean,

0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:30.360
<v Speaker 1>how does that sound to you?

0:29:35.280 --> 0:29:39.520
<v Speaker 9>I mean, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing, but

0:29:40.280 --> 0:29:44.200
<v Speaker 9>if I think about it from the perspective of, you know,

0:29:44.240 --> 0:29:47.240
<v Speaker 9>I have to think about my adult responsibilities as well,

0:29:47.320 --> 0:29:51.080
<v Speaker 9>and like like my job and you know, there's like

0:29:51.400 --> 0:29:53.400
<v Speaker 9>there's those are the things that I have to take

0:29:53.400 --> 0:29:55.160
<v Speaker 9>care of in my life. But if I was to

0:29:55.280 --> 0:29:58.560
<v Speaker 9>a point where I was I had financial freedom, and

0:29:58.640 --> 0:30:01.680
<v Speaker 9>I had enough money to just be comfortable for the

0:30:01.680 --> 0:30:04.560
<v Speaker 9>rest of my life, which I plan on doing at

0:30:04.600 --> 0:30:08.080
<v Speaker 9>some point in time, working towards that for sure, to

0:30:08.120 --> 0:30:10.600
<v Speaker 9>where I would just be able to chill at home,

0:30:10.720 --> 0:30:14.920
<v Speaker 9>then maybe it wouldn't be necessarily a bad thing. But

0:30:15.080 --> 0:30:17.280
<v Speaker 9>I don't know if I would want to be in

0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:24.520
<v Speaker 9>that space permanently because I want to have that sense

0:30:24.560 --> 0:30:27.800
<v Speaker 9>of being back as Brianna, because I want to be

0:30:27.840 --> 0:30:29.840
<v Speaker 9>able to keep learning and growing. I don't want that

0:30:29.920 --> 0:30:31.200
<v Speaker 9>to be the only thing that.

0:30:32.560 --> 0:30:32.920
<v Speaker 10>I am.

0:30:33.880 --> 0:30:34.640
<v Speaker 9>If that makes.

0:30:34.440 --> 0:30:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Sense, I agree with you that I also one day

0:30:38.640 --> 0:30:40.480
<v Speaker 1>would love to be rich enough to be a dog.

0:30:44.760 --> 0:30:45.480
<v Speaker 10>That would be great.

0:30:46.200 --> 0:30:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Thank you very much for calling Brianna. Good luck to you.

0:30:50.000 --> 0:30:50.360
<v Speaker 5>Thank you.

0:30:51.120 --> 0:30:54.000
<v Speaker 1>That actually sounds like a pretty good life.

0:30:54.360 --> 0:31:00.160
<v Speaker 4>Hello, how's a good one.

0:31:01.600 --> 0:31:08.600

0:31:31.000 --> 0:31:32.600

<v Speaker 4>Okay, okay, okay, I got you. I got you, beautiful.

0:31:38.040 --> 0:31:38.840

<v Speaker 1>No, no worries, man, What's what's up? What's uh? What

0:31:42.920 --> 0:31:43.560
<v Speaker 1>did you want to say?

0:31:45.120 --> 0:31:47.480
<v Speaker 4>Okay, So I was going to my buddy's house to

0:31:47.480 --> 0:31:51.400
<v Speaker 4>go pick up some stuff, and well, he asked if

0:31:51.440 --> 0:31:54.000
<v Speaker 4>he could go get some McDonald's with his girlfriends if

0:31:54.000 --> 0:31:56.880
<v Speaker 4>they didn't have a car. So, you know, I left

0:31:56.920 --> 0:31:58.880
<v Speaker 4>my stuff there because this is gonna be a quick ride.

0:31:58.920 --> 0:32:01.600
<v Speaker 4>We're gonna go back, come back, you know, I'll get

0:32:01.640 --> 0:32:04.360
<v Speaker 4>my stuff and go back home. Well, we get back

0:32:04.360 --> 0:32:08.400
<v Speaker 4>to his where the place he was staying, and his

0:32:08.480 --> 0:32:12.560
<v Speaker 4>roommate's girlfriend locked the door because she was going to Walmart. Well,

0:32:12.600 --> 0:32:14.800
<v Speaker 4>they didn't have a way in and my stuff was inside,

0:32:14.920 --> 0:32:18.240
<v Speaker 4>so I couldn't wait. I mean I had to wait

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:21.920
<v Speaker 4>to get my stuff. And so we were, you know,

0:32:22.080 --> 0:32:25.000
<v Speaker 4>just telling stories. Well he told me about how he

0:32:25.080 --> 0:32:28.640
<v Speaker 4>had an ex girlfriend that he got pregnant and they

0:32:28.680 --> 0:32:32.480
<v Speaker 4>didn't have the money to afford for an abortion. So

0:32:32.600 --> 0:32:35.600
<v Speaker 4>he told me about he grabbed the uh they had

0:32:35.640 --> 0:32:37.880
<v Speaker 4>to use a coat hanger, and he said that he

0:32:37.880 --> 0:32:40.360
<v Speaker 4>could feel the coat hanger going up and he could

0:32:40.400 --> 0:32:44.840
<v Speaker 4>feel it scrambling the baby. And that shit free like

0:32:44.960 --> 0:32:45.920
<v Speaker 4>kind of fucked me up.

0:32:45.960 --> 0:32:46.080
<v Speaker 7>Bro.

0:32:46.720 --> 0:32:49.520
<v Speaker 4>I ain't gonna lie like I'm all about abortions because

0:32:49.920 --> 0:32:52.640
<v Speaker 4>that's free, you know, free rights to everybody. But like,

0:32:52.640 --> 0:32:54.520
<v Speaker 4>how you gonna tell somebody that shit.

0:32:55.520 --> 0:32:55.600
<v Speaker 6>M.

0:32:57.080 --> 0:32:59.240
<v Speaker 1>This was your this was something that happened to your friends.

0:33:01.200 --> 0:33:03.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no, he did, like he did himself. Like he

0:33:03.680 --> 0:33:06.800
<v Speaker 4>told me he could feel the the like the coat hanger,

0:33:06.840 --> 0:33:08.880
<v Speaker 4>you know, you straight in the coat, the coat hanger out.

0:33:09.480 --> 0:33:12.560
<v Speaker 4>He said he could feel it penetrate the feat of

0:33:13.000 --> 0:33:18.720
<v Speaker 4>and he could feel it scrambling and ship. Wow, I

0:33:18.800 --> 0:33:21.880
<v Speaker 4>promise this is not a joke, but like this ship

0:33:21.920 --> 0:33:22.880
<v Speaker 4>is kind of fucked up.

0:33:24.120 --> 0:33:26.840
<v Speaker 1>So you said that this this well so interesting. So

0:33:26.880 --> 0:33:33.280
<v Speaker 1>you say that this story scarred you. Yeah, I mean

<v Speaker 1>it scarred you, I I, uh, I cannot imagine how

0:33:39.800 --> 0:33:40.880
<v Speaker 1>how your friend felt.

0:33:44.040 --> 0:33:48.120
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you're right about that. But he did he

0:33:48.560 --> 0:33:51.200
<v Speaker 4>did it for a reason, so he must have been

0:33:51.200 --> 0:33:51.920
<v Speaker 4>okay with it.

0:33:52.680 --> 0:33:53.800

0:34:38.719 --> 0:34:40.759

0:34:44.040 --> 0:34:46.920
<v Speaker 4>But I mean, my life's kind of kind of all whacked.

0:34:47.000 --> 0:34:52.040
<v Speaker 4>I'm not gonna lie. If you want to hear some other.

0:34:51.880 --> 0:34:56.040
<v Speaker 1>Stories, sure, why do you say that your life is whack?

0:35:00.800 --> 0:35:03.399
<v Speaker 4>So? So how much can I go with saying on here?

0:35:07.360 --> 0:35:09.319

<v Speaker 1>What exactly? Well, give it? Give me the arena? What?

0:35:30.239 --> 0:35:36.520
<v Speaker 1>What area? What topic of I make some stuff.

0:35:36.719 --> 0:35:43.840
<v Speaker 4>I ain't gonna lie. I kind of I beat around

0:35:43.840 --> 0:35:47.319
<v Speaker 4>the bush and I kind of talk some people over,

0:35:48.760 --> 0:35:51.120
<v Speaker 4>but they all still buy my ship.

0:35:52.880 --> 0:35:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, you you say you make some stuff and you

0:35:56.080 --> 0:35:59.279
<v Speaker 1>and you're function some people over in what way, in

0:35:59.360 --> 0:36:02.759
<v Speaker 1>whatever amount of detail you're comfortable providing? Do you do

0:36:02.800 --> 0:36:03.799
<v Speaker 1>you fuck people over?

0:36:03.960 --> 0:36:04.160
<v Speaker 10>Well?

0:36:05.600 --> 0:36:09.080
<v Speaker 4>Do you do you know anything about like psychedelics?

0:36:10.440 --> 0:36:11.480
<v Speaker 1>Not a whole lot?

0:36:13.200 --> 0:36:16.120
<v Speaker 4>Well, you know how like the there's a LSD's like

0:36:16.120 --> 0:36:21.960
<v Speaker 4>all those tiny papers. Yep, Well you can buy those

0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:24.759
<v Speaker 4>tiny papers on Amazon by like a sheet for like

0:36:24.800 --> 0:36:29.440
<v Speaker 4>twenty five dollars. Well, instead of making LSD, there's something

0:36:29.480 --> 0:36:33.840
<v Speaker 4>called LSA. It's so simple to make. Well, I found

0:36:33.840 --> 0:36:37.279
<v Speaker 4>a way to get it onto the papers and gives

0:36:37.320 --> 0:36:41.600
<v Speaker 4>you like a like a like a decent trip, and

0:36:41.719 --> 0:36:45.319
<v Speaker 4>so I sell it really cheap. But it's really cheap

0:36:45.400 --> 0:36:47.680
<v Speaker 4>to make. So i'd be like flipping in my money.

0:36:50.640 --> 0:36:52.359
<v Speaker 1>And when you sell it, do you pass it off

0:36:52.360 --> 0:36:56.279
<v Speaker 1>as if it is LSD? Yeah?

0:36:56.280 --> 0:36:57.320
<v Speaker 4>I sell it as LSD.

0:36:58.360 --> 0:37:02.680
<v Speaker 1>What is LSA mean? Uh?

0:37:04.239 --> 0:37:07.120
<v Speaker 4>I honestly cannot tell you that I fell a lost

0:37:07.120 --> 0:37:11.680
<v Speaker 4>eergic acid. But don't take me up on that. I'm

0:37:11.680 --> 0:37:14.919
<v Speaker 4>pretty sure it's not Elisa xeric acid. Get you get

0:37:14.920 --> 0:37:18.680
<v Speaker 4>it from the seed. The seeds are legal. The process

0:37:18.719 --> 0:37:21.560
<v Speaker 4>to make it is literally the seeds and watered.

0:37:23.040 --> 0:37:28.319
<v Speaker 1>Okay. And when you say you fuck people over, do

0:37:28.400 --> 0:37:32.319
<v Speaker 1>people come back to you upset with you about this?

0:37:34.520 --> 0:37:37.919
<v Speaker 4>No? Because if you get actual LSD, you can sail

0:37:37.920 --> 0:37:39.840
<v Speaker 4>it for fifteen a hit where I'm at, So I

0:37:39.920 --> 0:37:42.640
<v Speaker 4>sell these for five dollars a hit or three hundred

0:37:42.880 --> 0:37:46.720
<v Speaker 4>for one hundred of them. So like I just passed

0:37:46.719 --> 0:37:55.000
<v Speaker 4>it off as like really bad LSD. Okay, And but

0:37:55.000 --> 0:37:59.200
<v Speaker 4>but you can go on YouTube right now and learn

0:37:59.280 --> 0:38:01.200
<v Speaker 4>how to make it. And you go on there and

0:38:01.440 --> 0:38:04.560
<v Speaker 4>learn how to make dmt s, which I don't know

0:38:04.600 --> 0:38:05.920
<v Speaker 4>if you know what DMT is.

0:38:07.960 --> 0:38:13.640
<v Speaker 1>So tell me you say your life is fuck I

0:38:13.640 --> 0:38:15.040
<v Speaker 1>forget if I'm putting words in your mouth, but you

0:38:15.040 --> 0:38:16.120
<v Speaker 1>said your life is fucked up?

0:38:18.120 --> 0:38:20.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? I think this is pretty fucked up what I did.

0:38:21.360 --> 0:38:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So I'm not.

0:38:24.760 --> 0:38:27.480
<v Speaker 4>What I say. I'm not really happy with what I do.

0:38:28.320 --> 0:38:29.680
<v Speaker 4>I'm sorry for cutting you off.

0:38:30.320 --> 0:38:32.200
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, it's fine. So you're not happy with

0:38:32.239 --> 0:38:34.719
<v Speaker 1>what you do? Is is there anything that you could

0:38:34.760 --> 0:38:36.640
<v Speaker 1>think of that that you would rather be doing?

0:38:39.560 --> 0:38:39.719
<v Speaker 3>Well?

0:38:39.719 --> 0:38:43.480
<v Speaker 4>I already worked forty hours a week, so this is

0:38:43.520 --> 0:38:46.120
<v Speaker 4>sort of like a side thing and I just enjoyed

0:38:46.120 --> 0:38:51.560
<v Speaker 4>doing it. But I know it's like bad, Oh bro, bro,

0:38:51.680 --> 0:38:55.359
<v Speaker 4>what okay? Okay, I just now remember what happened. What

0:38:55.440 --> 0:38:57.880
<v Speaker 4>happened to me like two months ago. You will not

0:38:57.960 --> 0:39:00.680
<v Speaker 4>believe this. I thought I was going to jail for life.

0:39:01.760 --> 0:39:04.680
<v Speaker 4>Can I can I tell this story?

0:39:05.040 --> 0:39:07.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? But I I wanna. I want a real quick

0:39:07.120 --> 0:39:08.879
<v Speaker 1>because I don't want to lose this. You said that

0:39:09.080 --> 0:39:13.520
<v Speaker 1>you're not happy with it you do, but yet you

0:39:13.560 --> 0:39:16.160
<v Speaker 1>say you enjoy doing it, so you just like.

0:39:18.320 --> 0:39:26.399
<v Speaker 4>Well, are you? It hurts my family? That's that's that's

0:39:26.480 --> 0:39:28.719
<v Speaker 4>one real big reasons why I hate doing this.

0:39:29.400 --> 0:39:33.319
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so it hurts your family, but you say that

0:39:33.480 --> 0:39:38.439
<v Speaker 1>you like doing it, but it's something that has pros

0:39:38.440 --> 0:39:39.960
<v Speaker 1>and cons to it in your eyes.

0:39:42.080 --> 0:39:45.040
<v Speaker 4>Yes, Like I don't think anybody should do to this.

0:39:46.120 --> 0:39:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Okay, what are the what are the pros for you?

0:39:48.840 --> 0:39:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Making money?

0:39:52.640 --> 0:39:56.040
<v Speaker 4>Pretty much just making money, that's all about it.

0:39:57.040 --> 0:39:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm. And in what ways does it hurt your family?

0:40:04.680 --> 0:40:08.000
<v Speaker 4>They're just against it. They don't like anything about doing it.

0:40:08.000 --> 0:40:11.640
<v Speaker 4>They've been sober for about thirty years, and I just

0:40:11.680 --> 0:40:14.160
<v Speaker 4>feel like it's bad that I'm doing that shit.

0:40:17.320 --> 0:40:17.719
<v Speaker 3>Have you?

0:40:18.520 --> 0:40:21.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm just curious have you made any attempt at all

0:40:21.320 --> 0:40:22.480
<v Speaker 1>to stop doing this?

0:40:27.120 --> 0:40:31.680
<v Speaker 4>About twenty eighteen, I got robbed of two ounces from

0:40:31.680 --> 0:40:33.960
<v Speaker 4>a guy that I knew from like the second grade.

0:40:34.360 --> 0:40:36.680
<v Speaker 4>I moved away from that school in like tenth grade,

0:40:37.560 --> 0:40:39.640
<v Speaker 4>and I figured, you know, he wouldn't suck me over.

0:40:39.800 --> 0:40:43.399
<v Speaker 4>Will Yeah, should sucked me over? And well that kind

0:40:43.440 --> 0:40:45.920
<v Speaker 4>of maybe stought for him, and I sort of just

0:40:45.960 --> 0:40:50.239
<v Speaker 4>got back into it because you know, I'm not gonna lie.

0:40:50.280 --> 0:40:51.040
<v Speaker 4>I so weed to.

0:40:56.160 --> 0:41:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever gone to any kind of like actual

0:41:02.120 --> 0:41:07.600
<v Speaker 1>counselor type of person who you think might be able

0:41:07.640 --> 0:41:08.200
<v Speaker 1>to help you.

0:41:12.400 --> 0:41:12.440
<v Speaker 10>You?

0:41:15.080 --> 0:41:18.640
<v Speaker 1>I am, I am. I don't know if I've disclaimed

0:41:18.640 --> 0:41:20.880
<v Speaker 1>this to you, but I am not an actual I

0:41:21.239 --> 0:41:25.440
<v Speaker 1>am nothing more than a man in a gecko costume.

0:41:26.640 --> 0:41:37.279
<v Speaker 1>But but if you do have a genuine desire to quit,

0:41:38.640 --> 0:41:41.440
<v Speaker 1>I would as always recommend that you seek some form

0:41:41.520 --> 0:41:48.799
<v Speaker 1>of legitimate, legitimate help. What was the thing that you

0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:50.279
<v Speaker 1>wanted to tell me that happened to you?

0:41:50.320 --> 0:41:57.479
<v Speaker 4>Two months ago, me and my buddies we all left

0:41:57.480 --> 0:41:59.439
<v Speaker 4>her house because they had to go to a gas

0:41:59.440 --> 0:42:03.880
<v Speaker 4>station give wraps. Well, we were just going to get wraps,

0:42:03.880 --> 0:42:05.960
<v Speaker 4>so we didn't carry nothing on us. Well, as soon

0:42:05.960 --> 0:42:08.120
<v Speaker 4>as we leave out their house, go down the street.

0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:11.799
<v Speaker 4>There's a cop sitting right across the street. So you know,

0:42:11.880 --> 0:42:15.200
<v Speaker 4>we turned right. As soon as we get down a

0:42:15.280 --> 0:42:18.680
<v Speaker 4>little down the road, the cop pulls out. Well, we

0:42:18.760 --> 0:42:23.359
<v Speaker 4>get down to our gas station. You know, the cop

0:42:23.440 --> 0:42:26.720
<v Speaker 4>blue lights us, so we get pulled over. Well, because

0:42:26.760 --> 0:42:29.600
<v Speaker 4>he knows the people in the car, and he said

0:42:29.600 --> 0:42:33.759
<v Speaker 4>that he smelled marijuana. He said that he could. He

0:42:33.840 --> 0:42:35.640
<v Speaker 4>told me to get out of the car, and I

0:42:35.680 --> 0:42:37.520
<v Speaker 4>got out. I was straight with it. I told you

0:42:37.520 --> 0:42:41.040
<v Speaker 4>can search the car. There's nothing in there, and so

0:42:41.320 --> 0:42:44.279
<v Speaker 4>I let him soish the car. They didn't find nothing. Well,

0:42:44.400 --> 0:42:49.520
<v Speaker 4>I had jail tabs, the jail LSD, and I had

0:42:49.560 --> 0:42:55.839
<v Speaker 4>paper LSD on me right there, like real stuff, not fake. Well,

0:42:55.880 --> 0:42:58.880
<v Speaker 4>I should you not. When they searched that car. Another

0:42:59.000 --> 0:43:02.040
<v Speaker 4>cop came, they searched that car again. They found it.

0:43:02.560 --> 0:43:05.000
<v Speaker 4>He brought that up, pointed it right in my face.

0:43:05.080 --> 0:43:08.160
<v Speaker 4>He was like, what are these? I told him they

0:43:08.200 --> 0:43:10.520
<v Speaker 4>were stamps. You look them and you put them on there.

0:43:10.560 --> 0:43:12.680
<v Speaker 4>And he looked at him, like, these are stamps. I've

0:43:12.680 --> 0:43:16.160
<v Speaker 4>never seen stamps like this before. He was I'm gonna

0:43:16.200 --> 0:43:18.920
<v Speaker 4>have to go do a little more research on these.

0:43:19.840 --> 0:43:22.360
<v Speaker 4>So he takes them, you know, goes back to his car.

0:43:22.360 --> 0:43:24.680
<v Speaker 4>I'm still standing there thinking, oh man, I'm about to

0:43:24.719 --> 0:43:28.200
<v Speaker 4>go to fucking jail for live because one tab is

0:43:28.239 --> 0:43:33.520
<v Speaker 4>apparently like a manslaughter charge or something or like like

0:43:33.600 --> 0:43:37.319
<v Speaker 4>conspiracy against the government. And I had eight of them,

0:43:37.719 --> 0:43:41.560
<v Speaker 4>so I was like, oh, fuck brou I'm gone. But

0:43:42.120 --> 0:43:44.440
<v Speaker 4>he tells me to go over there. He was like,

0:43:44.560 --> 0:43:47.040
<v Speaker 4>these aren't acid stamps, are they? Because I looked up

0:43:48.480 --> 0:43:51.279
<v Speaker 4>stamps and that's this one word for acid. I was like, no,

0:43:51.840 --> 0:43:53.520
<v Speaker 4>there's just stamps. You look them and put them on

0:43:53.560 --> 0:43:57.960
<v Speaker 4>the envelope. He was like, he was like, okay, I'm

0:43:57.960 --> 0:43:59.719
<v Speaker 4>gonna take your word on that. I'm gonna take it

0:43:59.760 --> 0:44:03.560
<v Speaker 4>to the lad and test him. If anything comes back,

0:44:04.040 --> 0:44:07.600
<v Speaker 4>we're gonna come and get you. I was like, there's

0:44:07.640 --> 0:44:12.120
<v Speaker 4>just that. Well, let a load. He he letting me go,

0:44:12.600 --> 0:44:14.520
<v Speaker 4>Like dude, I shipped my pants, he letting me go.

0:44:14.920 --> 0:44:17.920
<v Speaker 4>I sat back in my car, but literally, the paper

0:44:17.960 --> 0:44:21.160
<v Speaker 4>tabs were sitting on my front seat. I got it

0:44:21.200 --> 0:44:23.319
<v Speaker 4>back in the car. They were just sitting right there.

0:44:23.400 --> 0:44:24.880
<v Speaker 4>As soon as I opened my door, I was like,

0:44:24.880 --> 0:44:27.400
<v Speaker 4>what the fuck? How they not even take those? But

0:44:27.480 --> 0:44:36.080
<v Speaker 4>they took my jail tabs. That's it. So, yeah, that

0:44:36.200 --> 0:44:37.759
<v Speaker 4>was a ramble. I'm sorry.

0:44:38.640 --> 0:44:42.520
<v Speaker 1>They just flat out believed that they were snaps.

0:44:44.160 --> 0:44:48.799
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I guess so, But I'm okay, okay, there's some

0:44:48.840 --> 0:44:51.680
<v Speaker 4>wors to it. The UH, the coffin story of acting

0:44:52.120 --> 0:44:54.400
<v Speaker 4>like buddy buddy to me, and I ain't gonna lie

0:44:55.480 --> 0:44:58.560
<v Speaker 4>because I'm likek A, I'm just okay, I'm just gonna

0:44:58.560 --> 0:45:01.359
<v Speaker 4>say that. And well I asked the uh. As soon

0:45:01.400 --> 0:45:03.960
<v Speaker 4>as that cop said these are acids fasts, I told him,

0:45:04.120 --> 0:45:06.680
<v Speaker 4>I was like, no, what what his acid? He was like, oh,

0:45:06.760 --> 0:45:09.040
<v Speaker 4>that's a bad drug. But I'm pretty sure that guy's

0:45:09.080 --> 0:45:12.359
<v Speaker 4>tried it. He pointed at this other cop inside his car,

0:45:12.440 --> 0:45:13.800
<v Speaker 4>and that cop started laughing.

0:45:14.760 --> 0:45:15.080
<v Speaker 12>M hm.

0:45:19.440 --> 0:45:21.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm pretty sure they knew what it was. They took

0:45:22.000 --> 0:45:23.759
<v Speaker 4>the ship and they had good night.

0:45:25.800 --> 0:45:30.359
<v Speaker 1>Really so they so they ended up auto. So they

0:45:30.360 --> 0:45:31.560
<v Speaker 1>did confiscate it from you.

0:45:33.239 --> 0:45:36.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but they didn't like wrap it up for anything.

0:45:36.560 --> 0:45:38.480
<v Speaker 4>They just pretty much they were holding you like they

0:45:38.520 --> 0:45:41.120
<v Speaker 4>didn't have anything, like no fucking evidence bag or nothing.

0:45:41.760 --> 0:45:43.680
<v Speaker 4>The cop was like, you ain't gonna have to pay

0:45:43.719 --> 0:45:46.719
<v Speaker 4>nothing tonight. You're good to go. You all can leave,

0:45:47.320 --> 0:45:50.520
<v Speaker 4>like they were like really like some like really buddy, buddy,

0:45:50.560 --> 0:45:53.480
<v Speaker 4>cops ain't gonna lie and they found that ship.

0:45:54.480 --> 0:45:58.360
<v Speaker 1>Listen, banana banana, banana, banana, banana. I you know, like

0:46:00.520 --> 0:46:04.080

<v Speaker 1>I appreciate that you feel comfortable enough to share this

0:46:07.400 --> 0:46:11.680

0:46:20.600 --> 0:46:22.480
<v Speaker 1>if what you are telling me is true and you

0:46:22.560 --> 0:46:24.880
<v Speaker 1>had enough acid on your person to send you to

0:46:24.960 --> 0:46:30.920
<v Speaker 1>jail forever, you got really lucky.

0:46:30.880 --> 0:46:38.319
<v Speaker 4>Very lucky. Before my car, that ship was horrible for

0:46:38.360 --> 0:46:40.719
<v Speaker 4>me because when he brought that ship right up in

0:46:40.760 --> 0:46:43.640
<v Speaker 4>my face, dude, I literally put my hands behind my

0:46:43.680 --> 0:46:46.080
<v Speaker 4>back like I was in handcuffs and he's like I

0:46:46.120 --> 0:46:49.799

0:46:49.960 --> 0:46:53.200
<v Speaker 4>like what are these that total? There's a dance that

0:46:53.320 --> 0:46:56.280

0:47:39.480 --> 0:47:42.640
<v Speaker 4>and like maybe maybe in like a week and a

0:47:42.680 --> 0:47:45.320
<v Speaker 4>half fan and they didn't give me no tickets that

0:47:45.400 --> 0:47:46.120

0:49:09.320 --> 0:49:13.040
<v Speaker 1>lot of stories about this, but I really want like

0:49:13.480 --> 0:49:16.719
<v Speaker 1>you to leave at leastless call with like, fuck man,

0:49:16.800 --> 0:49:20.799

<v Speaker 1>living this pretty dangerous lifestyle, that you find a way

0:49:33.440 --> 0:49:37.640

0:49:49.800 --> 0:49:56.960

<v Speaker 4>and just raid my house?

0:50:13.000 --> 0:50:16.200

0:50:17.000 --> 0:50:22.680
<v Speaker 1>think that I don't know. Man, I'm just a guy

0:53:42.520 --> 0:53:54.080
<v Speaker 1>necessarily the etiquette of the sugar daddy's sugar baby universe.

<v Speaker 1>daddy and you're willing to And again, I don't know

0:54:09.280 --> 0:54:12.280
<v Speaker 1>what sort of things are bringing in the big bucks.

0:54:12.320 --> 0:54:14.400

<v Speaker 1>stuck with this guy? Why don't you go find more guys?

0:54:37.800 --> 0:54:40.759
<v Speaker 1>If this is in fact the way that you you

0:54:40.800 --> 0:54:41.719

0:55:28.360 --> 0:55:31.520
<v Speaker 2>I kind of you know, can you help me please?

0:55:33.400 --> 0:55:38.719
<v Speaker 1>This is I'm I'm why are you afraid to ask

0:55:38.800 --> 0:55:43.200
<v Speaker 1>him for money? If? I mean, look, you you sought

0:55:43.239 --> 0:55:45.440
<v Speaker 1>an arrangement, as did he.

0:55:45.800 --> 0:55:46.080
<v Speaker 10>M h.

0:55:46.840 --> 0:55:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I feel like the writing is on the wall as

0:55:49.200 --> 0:55:55.480
<v Speaker 1>to sort of the arrangement, which is you sort again,

0:55:55.520 --> 0:55:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know the universe that well, so this is

0:55:58.520 --> 0:56:01.600
<v Speaker 1>just me started making this efferent air. But the arrangement

0:56:01.760 --> 0:56:04.680
<v Speaker 1>being sought is that he gives you money and you

0:56:04.760 --> 0:56:10.360
<v Speaker 1>in turn spend spend romantic and I guess implied sexual

0:56:10.400 --> 0:56:12.040
<v Speaker 1>time with him.

0:56:12.600 --> 0:56:17.439
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm yeah, pretty much. It's scared turn them off

0:56:17.640 --> 0:56:18.200
<v Speaker 2>and he'll.

0:56:18.000 --> 0:56:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Be like, yeah, so are you afraid to to to

0:56:24.880 --> 0:56:31.680
<v Speaker 1>reinforce the sort of grounds of the arrangement by saying, Hey, listen,

0:56:31.719 --> 0:56:33.080
<v Speaker 1>you know I'll go out on a date with you,

0:56:33.160 --> 0:56:37.200
<v Speaker 1>but this ain't tender. This is seeking arrangements. You gotta

0:56:37.280 --> 0:56:37.960
<v Speaker 1>pay me for this.

0:56:40.600 --> 0:56:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm just scared to be I'm not very confrontational.

0:56:43.600 --> 0:56:45.759
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm a cancer, So it's very hard for

0:56:45.800 --> 0:56:48.520
<v Speaker 2>me just be like, hey, you know what the deal is?

0:56:51.040 --> 0:56:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean, look, and by the way, maybe you know,

0:56:53.200 --> 0:56:56.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe you ask a more seasoned sugar baby about the

0:56:57.000 --> 0:57:00.440
<v Speaker 1>best way to go about it, but yeah, you might

0:57:00.480 --> 0:57:02.360
<v Speaker 1>have to get a little bit of confrontational and just

0:57:02.680 --> 0:57:04.480
<v Speaker 1>it's not even it's not a confrontation. Don't look at

0:57:04.520 --> 0:57:07.960
<v Speaker 1>it as a confrontation. But uh look, you know you

0:57:07.960 --> 0:57:09.840
<v Speaker 1>gotta go out there, you gotta lay out the uh

0:57:10.040 --> 0:57:12.600
<v Speaker 1>layout again, the grounds of the arrangement. Let me bring

0:57:12.680 --> 0:57:18.560
<v Speaker 1>up one other thing by the way before we and

0:57:18.560 --> 0:57:20.560
<v Speaker 1>and again, I you know, I think I think that

0:57:20.640 --> 0:57:23.040
<v Speaker 1>any way that you could make money is you know,

0:57:23.680 --> 0:57:25.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna say it's not a legitimate way, but like,

0:57:26.480 --> 0:57:29.280
<v Speaker 1>have you considered other ways of making money? If if

0:57:29.280 --> 0:57:31.640
<v Speaker 1>this is like you know, because you you you you

0:57:31.720 --> 0:57:35.400
<v Speaker 1>sound like you have safety concerns, which are very legitimate concerns,

0:57:38.080 --> 0:57:42.960
<v Speaker 1>and you know, you sound like you're I I I

0:57:43.240 --> 0:57:44.680
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I'm not gonna put words in it, but

0:57:44.720 --> 0:57:46.400
<v Speaker 1>you sound like you don't want to have sex with

0:57:46.440 --> 0:57:50.800
<v Speaker 1>people for money. Have you thought about other ways that

0:57:50.880 --> 0:57:55.000
<v Speaker 1>you could make money out outside of seeking arrangements?

0:57:56.120 --> 0:57:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I have a full time job. I look at

0:57:58.240 --> 0:58:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Tesla and it's like, you know, the pay is good,

0:58:00.280 --> 0:58:03.120
<v Speaker 2>it's just I try to work over time as much

<v Speaker 2>as I can, and it's just it's killing me. But

<v Speaker 2>I'm not going to go just get another part time job,

0:58:07.920 --> 0:58:11.320
<v Speaker 2>because over time that'd probably be making like thirty to

0:58:11.360 --> 0:58:14.640
<v Speaker 2>forty bucks an hour if I work, you know, sixty

0:58:14.800 --> 0:58:20.680
<v Speaker 2>seventy hours a week. You know, it's just like I

0:58:20.720 --> 0:58:23.040
<v Speaker 2>don't know, and it's seed like, just a little bit

0:58:23.040 --> 0:58:25.080
<v Speaker 2>of that help for just a little bit longer until

0:58:25.120 --> 0:58:28.280
<v Speaker 2>my mom can hold the job and I have.

0:58:28.400 --> 0:58:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Six It's fine, but I'm sorry, I'm sorry I laughed,

0:58:32.400 --> 0:58:34.600
<v Speaker 1>but I was just I feel like if you work

<v Speaker 1>the what's the sort of the big money issue that

0:59:03.480 --> 0:59:04.240
<v Speaker 1>you're trying to solve.

0:59:06.000 --> 0:59:08.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's just I'm paying all the bills by myself.

0:59:08.840 --> 0:59:11.320
<v Speaker 2>You move into this place recently, and my mom kind

0:59:11.320 --> 0:59:13.920
<v Speaker 2>of just she can't hold a job. She kind of

0:59:13.960 --> 0:59:16.640
<v Speaker 2>just walks off and doesn't want to like stay, or

0:59:16.800 --> 0:59:19.120
<v Speaker 2>she doesn't want to go back, and then it's kind

0:59:19.120 --> 0:59:21.520
<v Speaker 2>of just all falls on me. And I had a

0:59:21.560 --> 0:59:23.840
<v Speaker 2>boyfriend who worked at Tesla and he helped me out

0:59:23.840 --> 0:59:26.400
<v Speaker 2>a little bit, but things just got really really bad

0:59:26.400 --> 0:59:28.880
<v Speaker 2>between us, so I had to kind of stick we're

0:59:28.960 --> 0:59:31.080
<v Speaker 2>doing and now it's just kind of all on me,

0:59:31.160 --> 0:59:32.760
<v Speaker 2>and I'm like, oh, gosh, okay, well I need to

0:59:32.840 --> 0:59:36.440
<v Speaker 2>do something that's just kind of quick, easy money. Just

0:59:36.480 --> 0:59:38.480
<v Speaker 2>make sure rent's paid on time, to make sure we

0:59:38.480 --> 0:59:40.640
<v Speaker 2>can have groceries and all of that.

0:59:43.400 --> 0:59:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, look, if you've explored other ways of

0:59:45.720 --> 0:59:48.000
<v Speaker 1>trying to make a little bit of side hustle money

<v Speaker 1>to the nature, because at the end of the day,

1:00:03.920 --> 1:00:07.480
<v Speaker 1>seeking arrangements, at the end of the day, the sugar

1:00:07.560 --> 1:00:12.600
<v Speaker 1>baby sugar daddy arrangement is a business transaction. And if

1:00:12.800 --> 1:00:17.680

1:00:17.720 --> 1:00:23.880
<v Speaker 1>freelance photographer or a freelance artist or a freelance girlfriend,

1:00:25.120 --> 1:00:29.280
<v Speaker 1>I should really have no problem with asking people to

1:00:29.280 --> 1:00:31.960
<v Speaker 1>pay their invoices. And that's just a part of being

1:00:31.960 --> 1:00:36.280
<v Speaker 1>a freelancer. Whatever it is, you are freelancing. So if

1:01:03.160 --> 1:01:05.320

1:01:19.600 --> 1:01:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Hello? Is this leave.

1:01:23.120 --> 1:01:23.320
<v Speaker 7>Yes?

1:01:23.520 --> 1:01:25.280
<v Speaker 12>Si leaves Lee.

1:01:25.280 --> 1:01:28.080
<v Speaker 1>It says here that you have an obsession with lawnmowers.

1:01:29.080 --> 1:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>You currently have six of them, Yes, but you want more?

1:01:35.240 --> 1:01:36.520
<v Speaker 12>Yes, I do want more.

1:01:38.200 --> 1:01:39.880
<v Speaker 1>And what is driving this obsession?

1:01:42.320 --> 1:01:48.760
<v Speaker 12>Well, honestly, like when you sit there and you work

1:01:48.800 --> 1:01:53.080
<v Speaker 12>on these lawnmowers, and once you get them running and

1:01:53.280 --> 1:01:56.439
<v Speaker 12>you can just ride around on them, and it's it's

1:01:56.440 --> 1:01:59.560
<v Speaker 12>like a reward in itself. You can line them up

1:01:59.600 --> 1:02:02.760
<v Speaker 12>and you need to pictures of them. You know, they're

1:02:02.760 --> 1:02:06.240
<v Speaker 12>a lot cheaper than than cars, they're easier to get

1:02:06.280 --> 1:02:12.120
<v Speaker 12>a hold of. You know what I'm saying, No, no, no, I.

1:02:12.280 --> 1:02:14.520
<v Speaker 1>I now that you've explained it and you've sort of

1:02:14.560 --> 1:02:17.560
<v Speaker 1>analogized it to the types of people who have like

1:02:17.600 --> 1:02:20.320
<v Speaker 1>garages and garages of cars and the big car people,

1:02:21.760 --> 1:02:23.680
<v Speaker 1>it actually makes a lot of sense why you would

1:02:23.720 --> 1:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>be obsessed with lawnmowers, because not everybody has the financial

1:02:27.440 --> 1:02:30.840
<v Speaker 1>tools to keep cars and cars of, to keep garages

1:02:30.880 --> 1:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>and garages of of of you know, collectible cars, but

1:02:34.520 --> 1:02:39.040
<v Speaker 1>you know collecting lawnmowers. Being a lawnmower enthusiast a lot

1:02:39.160 --> 1:02:46.080
<v Speaker 1>more affordable of a hobby with a very similar sort

1:02:46.120 --> 1:02:50.640
<v Speaker 1>of idea behind it. You know, there's engines, there's models,

1:02:50.680 --> 1:02:54.800
<v Speaker 1>there's all the sort of same stuff to gain.

1:02:58.200 --> 1:02:58.840
<v Speaker 4>Exactly.

1:02:59.360 --> 1:03:02.440
<v Speaker 12>And you seem like people have told me that I

1:03:02.520 --> 1:03:05.560
<v Speaker 12>have a problem, like I just get too many of them.

1:03:05.960 --> 1:03:10.040
<v Speaker 12>I don't see it that way, like cause like literally

1:03:10.080 --> 1:03:13.400
<v Speaker 12>like every two weeks, I'll either like just get another

1:03:13.440 --> 1:03:15.360
<v Speaker 12>one or just trade one of the ones that I

1:03:15.360 --> 1:03:18.320
<v Speaker 12>currently have for a different one. Like I'm always on

1:03:18.400 --> 1:03:20.960
<v Speaker 12>the search for a new type of onanmomer.

1:03:20.520 --> 1:03:21.840
<v Speaker 4>I haven't had before.

1:03:23.960 --> 1:03:32.200
<v Speaker 12>And is the pul And the crazy part.

1:03:32.080 --> 1:03:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Is speaks to you the most.

1:03:35.760 --> 1:03:43.720
<v Speaker 12>Yes, the nineteen sixties Sears customs are my favorite. They

1:03:43.840 --> 1:03:48.280
<v Speaker 12>just they hit so different, well because they are like

1:03:48.480 --> 1:03:52.520
<v Speaker 12>the simplest, like you just just pull the starter and

1:03:52.560 --> 1:03:56.080
<v Speaker 12>it's not one little belt that turns the whole thing,

1:03:56.480 --> 1:04:00.080
<v Speaker 12>and it's just such a simple machine. But yet it

1:04:00.240 --> 1:04:04.959
<v Speaker 12>so capable, like they can do so much, Like there's

1:04:05.000 --> 1:04:07.000
<v Speaker 12>so much more than just a lawnmo.

1:04:07.520 --> 1:04:12.600
<v Speaker 4>You know what I'm saying, absolutely absolutely, How many long

1:04:12.640 --> 1:04:13.120
<v Speaker 4>moments and.

1:04:14.880 --> 1:04:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Throughout the course of your life do you hope to own?

1:04:20.880 --> 1:04:23.240
<v Speaker 12>Oh, like from the rest of my life?

1:04:24.000 --> 1:04:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh when will you?

1:04:27.480 --> 1:04:30.680
<v Speaker 12>Oh man, I don't see myself stop them before one hundred.

1:04:30.800 --> 1:04:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Until you gaze upon them and go that is enough.

1:04:38.840 --> 1:04:42.760
<v Speaker 12>Well, I'd say at one time, I'd say I could.

1:04:43.600 --> 1:04:47.640
<v Speaker 12>I could handle fifteen at one time, but all the

1:04:47.760 --> 1:04:51.439
<v Speaker 12>different kinds I would like to have, I don't see

1:04:51.480 --> 1:04:57.760
<v Speaker 12>myself stopping before one hundred or so, you know. And

1:04:57.880 --> 1:05:00.960
<v Speaker 12>the crazy part is, I I don't even like mowing

1:05:01.040 --> 1:05:04.840
<v Speaker 12>my grass. I just like the mowers themselves.

1:05:05.480 --> 1:05:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Your lawn with.

1:05:07.360 --> 1:05:12.600
<v Speaker 12>Them, Well, I have like one or two that I

1:05:12.640 --> 1:05:15.240
<v Speaker 12>do mow my lawn with. I just don't like mowing

1:05:15.280 --> 1:05:18.680
<v Speaker 12>the lawn. I just like the lawnmower with themselves.

1:05:19.440 --> 1:05:23.040
<v Speaker 1>M hmm. Do you like to ride the mowers?

1:05:25.120 --> 1:05:29.320
<v Speaker 12>Yes, I will actually get on one of my lawnmowers

1:05:29.840 --> 1:05:32.880
<v Speaker 12>and I'll go check the cows, I'll go get my mail.

1:05:33.440 --> 1:05:36.240
<v Speaker 12>I'm next weekend, I'm planning on driving it all the

1:05:36.240 --> 1:05:39.560
<v Speaker 12>way to the grocery store, just just because I can.

1:05:39.760 --> 1:05:42.840
<v Speaker 12>You know, m.

1:05:45.280 --> 1:05:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Do they have parking for lawnmowers?

1:05:50.800 --> 1:05:55.240
<v Speaker 12>Not specific parking, but the way I look at it,

1:05:56.360 --> 1:05:57.840
<v Speaker 12>what are they going to tell me to do? Just

1:05:58.560 --> 1:06:01.720
<v Speaker 12>move the lawnmower, and once it's there, I don't really

1:06:01.720 --> 1:06:08.439
<v Speaker 12>think anybody will do anything about it. That's true, Yeah,

1:06:08.520 --> 1:06:11.320
<v Speaker 12>because like they'll be stuff like right down the road

1:06:12.240 --> 1:06:14.800
<v Speaker 12>that I could easily just drive my vehicle to, but

1:06:14.880 --> 1:06:18.600
<v Speaker 12>I'll prefer to take the lawnmower, just as there's a

1:06:18.600 --> 1:06:19.480
<v Speaker 12>different feel to it.

1:06:24.560 --> 1:06:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Do you know anyone else who's obsessed with lawnmowers or

1:06:26.640 --> 1:06:29.640
<v Speaker 1>are you alone in this hobby? Hobby?

1:06:30.280 --> 1:06:35.440
<v Speaker 12>Well, I actually I have a lawnmower group of friends.

1:06:35.560 --> 1:06:38.000
<v Speaker 12>Now they don't have as many as I do, but

1:06:38.080 --> 1:06:41.400
<v Speaker 12>we do have like this little group where we'll go

1:06:41.600 --> 1:06:43.560
<v Speaker 12>ride lawnmowers together.

1:06:47.280 --> 1:06:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Like a sort of lawnmower gang.

1:06:51.680 --> 1:06:55.880
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, it's it's called mower Mafia, and we'll get together

1:06:56.240 --> 1:06:58.400
<v Speaker 12>and we'll just ride the lawnmowers and then we'll talk

1:06:58.440 --> 1:06:58.840
<v Speaker 12>about them.

1:07:00.160 --> 1:07:00.600
<v Speaker 1>M hmm.

1:07:02.920 --> 1:07:03.560
<v Speaker 12>Yeah.

1:07:03.600 --> 1:07:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Do you guys ever go to war with other lawnmower clubs?

1:07:11.320 --> 1:07:14.280
<v Speaker 12>Well, we haven't come across any other ones yet. I

1:07:14.480 --> 1:07:18.240
<v Speaker 12>like or like a pack of wolves just running the

1:07:18.360 --> 1:07:21.040
<v Speaker 12>area with the lawnmower area, you.

1:07:21.000 --> 1:07:22.919

1:08:44.920 --> 1:08:45.200
<v Speaker 4>Dude?

<v Speaker 13>I do?

1:08:46.600 --> 1:08:50.640
<v Speaker 18>I do a sonic blast with butterfingers and Oreos. You

1:08:50.680 --> 1:08:54.720
<v Speaker 18>get both and it's a dynamite combination, dude.

1:08:55.040 --> 1:09:00.439
<v Speaker 1>You ever had for during Halloween, Baskin Robbins, We'll do

1:09:00.560 --> 1:09:05.200
<v Speaker 1>this flavor of Oreo called Oreo Trick or Treat and

1:09:05.240 --> 1:09:10.559
<v Speaker 1>it's fucking Oreo cookie with butterfinger and Babe Ruth and

1:09:10.640 --> 1:09:15.439
<v Speaker 1>I think Heath bar all in one ice cream thing.

1:09:17.640 --> 1:09:20.400
<v Speaker 18>That sounds heavenly, that sounds fantastic.

1:09:22.720 --> 1:09:24.479
<v Speaker 1>Here's my thing. Tell me if you can relate to

1:09:24.520 --> 1:09:27.280
<v Speaker 1>this at all, because I'm going to give you sort

1:09:27.320 --> 1:09:29.680
<v Speaker 1>of my thoughts about my whole thing, and then I

1:09:29.680 --> 1:09:33.680
<v Speaker 1>want to hear yours. I'm so glad we we can

1:09:33.720 --> 1:09:36.240
<v Speaker 1>talk about this because I most of my friends are

1:09:36.280 --> 1:09:41.200
<v Speaker 1>like pretty like normal people when it comes to like

1:09:41.240 --> 1:09:43.200
<v Speaker 1>how they eat and stuff, and I'm kind of not.

1:09:44.320 --> 1:09:50.880
<v Speaker 1>I am backing, I'm back and forth between. My life

1:09:50.880 --> 1:09:53.800
<v Speaker 1>would be a lot better. I'd feel better. I used

1:09:53.840 --> 1:09:55.840
<v Speaker 1>to care about looking good. Now I don't. I only

1:09:55.840 --> 1:09:59.080
<v Speaker 1>care about feeling good. But I would feel a lot

1:09:59.160 --> 1:10:07.559
<v Speaker 1>better if I ate correctly. I didn't indulge and uh,

1:10:07.720 --> 1:10:11.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, did push ups blah blah blah whatever. But

1:10:12.520 --> 1:10:18.400
<v Speaker 1>I also fucking love I love eating oreo chok or

1:10:18.400 --> 1:10:22.599
<v Speaker 1>treat ice cream. I love eating food, trying different foods,

1:10:22.640 --> 1:10:25.720
<v Speaker 1>different candies or whatever whatever. There are definitely lots of

1:10:25.760 --> 1:10:29.360
<v Speaker 1>times in which I overdo it and it's like totally overindulging.

1:10:30.479 --> 1:10:35.320
<v Speaker 1>But would my life be easier if I just continued

1:10:35.360 --> 1:10:39.320
<v Speaker 1>living the way I lived but made it an intentional decision.

1:10:39.439 --> 1:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, all right, I'm not gonna beat

1:10:41.120 --> 1:10:43.880
<v Speaker 1>myself up over this anymore. I'm just gonna live this

1:10:43.920 --> 1:10:49.240
<v Speaker 1>way unapologetically. And I'm in between those two things where

1:10:50.120 --> 1:10:52.519
<v Speaker 1>if you're not if you're gonna, you know, eat a

1:10:52.560 --> 1:10:55.559
<v Speaker 1>bunch of bad shit but then feel bad about it,

1:10:55.760 --> 1:10:57.400
<v Speaker 1>then why are you even doing it? If you're gonna

1:10:57.400 --> 1:10:59.120
<v Speaker 1>do it, you just commit to doing It'd be like, yeah,

1:10:59.160 --> 1:11:01.600
<v Speaker 1>fuck it, I'm eating a butter finger breakfast, lunch and

1:11:01.640 --> 1:11:03.840
<v Speaker 1>dinner bucket. This is my life. I accept that you'll

1:11:03.880 --> 1:11:06.720
<v Speaker 1>be happier or you just go all in and you go, no,

1:11:06.800 --> 1:11:09.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm not doing that anymore. And you know, but sitting

1:11:09.479 --> 1:11:14.320
<v Speaker 1>on the fence like this is what's causing me the distress.

1:11:14.680 --> 1:11:15.880
<v Speaker 1>Can you relate to that at all?

1:11:17.640 --> 1:11:21.400
<v Speaker 18>Yeah? Yeah, I can relate to that, like radical acceptance

1:11:21.840 --> 1:11:27.559
<v Speaker 18>of Baskin Robbins for sure, you know, just yeah, I

1:11:27.600 --> 1:11:31.920
<v Speaker 18>don't know, man, it's definitely. I feel like for me,

1:11:32.000 --> 1:11:37.400
<v Speaker 18>it's a combination of a bunch of different things. I think. Well,

1:11:37.479 --> 1:11:42.160
<v Speaker 18>the first thing is that, like I'm highly distractable, and

1:11:42.240 --> 1:11:46.360
<v Speaker 18>so with any food, if I just have like a

1:11:46.439 --> 1:11:49.040
<v Speaker 18>source of it somewhere near me, which is usually the case,

1:11:49.320 --> 1:11:51.840
<v Speaker 18>I'll just go through the whole fucking thing without realizing,

1:11:52.360 --> 1:11:56.600
<v Speaker 18>you know. So that's kind of one thing that I

1:11:56.640 --> 1:11:59.240
<v Speaker 18>know about me. But yeah, what else.

1:11:59.479 --> 1:12:02.439
<v Speaker 1>It's like where like you'll be like, oh, there's a

1:12:02.479 --> 1:12:04.960
<v Speaker 1>box of cheese. It's like a whole box, and it'll

1:12:05.040 --> 1:12:07.599
<v Speaker 1>start going on before you know it, the whole you

1:12:07.800 --> 1:12:08.040
<v Speaker 1>ate the.

1:12:07.960 --> 1:12:11.479
<v Speaker 18>Whole brow It's funny you said cheese. Its I was

1:12:11.520 --> 1:12:14.400
<v Speaker 18>literally taking care of my friend's dog and they had

1:12:14.400 --> 1:12:16.960
<v Speaker 18>a I was like, oh shit, they had a family

1:12:17.040 --> 1:12:20.640
<v Speaker 18>size thing of cheese. It's in the cupboard, and like

1:12:20.680 --> 1:12:23.920
<v Speaker 18>I'm gonna lunch on these, and then over the weekend

1:12:24.000 --> 1:12:25.680
<v Speaker 18>I just ate the whole damn thing by myself. I

1:12:25.720 --> 1:12:28.519
<v Speaker 18>gave I gave like five cheese its to the dog

1:12:29.600 --> 1:12:30.320
<v Speaker 18>and the rest are for me.

1:12:30.880 --> 1:12:33.240
<v Speaker 1>I always every time there's a situation like that, I

1:12:33.280 --> 1:12:38.439
<v Speaker 1>always sort of like overestimate what amounts of the box

1:12:38.760 --> 1:12:42.960
<v Speaker 1>other people have eaten. Yeah, you know what I'm saying,

1:12:43.000 --> 1:12:46.280
<v Speaker 1>You're eat the whole box. I gave the dog ten

1:12:46.400 --> 1:12:48.640
<v Speaker 1>cheese its, where really you gave them only five? You know,

1:12:48.720 --> 1:12:49.559
<v Speaker 1>I do that kind of thing.

1:12:51.520 --> 1:12:54.439
<v Speaker 18>It's like the whole heap problem, where you know, like

1:12:54.720 --> 1:12:57.639
<v Speaker 18>you have enough to say it's like a heap of something,

1:12:58.000 --> 1:13:00.799
<v Speaker 18>but then you know, eventually it gets smaller and smaller,

1:13:00.840 --> 1:13:02.559
<v Speaker 18>and then all of a sudden it's just like a

1:13:02.600 --> 1:13:06.080
<v Speaker 18>few crumbs left over. So then you can't like justify

1:13:06.120 --> 1:13:08.439
<v Speaker 18>it anymore. You gotta find you got to strike that balance.

1:13:09.400 --> 1:13:12.479
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmmm hmmm. So have you ever made an attempt

1:13:12.560 --> 1:13:17.240
<v Speaker 1>to cut out or or just in general to eat healthier,

1:13:17.680 --> 1:13:20.320
<v Speaker 1>live live better and all that stuff.

1:13:21.880 --> 1:13:27.400
<v Speaker 18>I've done really well before. Actually, Like so I guess

1:13:27.920 --> 1:13:32.639
<v Speaker 18>I should say I have ADHD right, But I also

1:13:33.120 --> 1:13:35.720
<v Speaker 18>have looked a lot into how to kind of work

1:13:35.760 --> 1:13:40.040
<v Speaker 18>with that, and has been able to in the past

1:13:40.400 --> 1:13:45.400
<v Speaker 18>tailor my surroundings to make it easier for me to

1:13:46.040 --> 1:13:50.480
<v Speaker 18>uh make those decisions, because a big thing with ADHD

1:13:50.600 --> 1:13:55.040
<v Speaker 18>is in impulsivity. Uh. And then I also like personally

1:13:55.600 --> 1:13:58.400
<v Speaker 18>can't I don't have no sense of time or you know,

1:13:58.479 --> 1:14:03.759
<v Speaker 18>kind of talking earlier about you know, just mindlessly smacking

1:14:03.880 --> 1:14:08.760
<v Speaker 18>a lot of that. But like, yeah, I'd always been

1:14:08.800 --> 1:14:11.400
<v Speaker 18>like lifting weights ever since high school. And then there's

1:14:11.439 --> 1:14:15.839
<v Speaker 18>a point there where I was like in really great shape.

1:14:16.160 --> 1:14:21.360
<v Speaker 18>You know, I was like, uh, bench pressing like a

1:14:21.360 --> 1:14:24.559
<v Speaker 18>little bit more than my body weight and like twice

1:14:24.680 --> 1:14:29.800
<v Speaker 18>my and I'd squatting like twice my body weight. And yeah,

1:14:29.840 --> 1:14:33.240
<v Speaker 18>I wasn't like eating sugar at all besides like natural

1:14:33.280 --> 1:14:36.479
<v Speaker 18>sugar and fruits and stuff, of course, But yeah, and

1:14:36.520 --> 1:14:40.160
<v Speaker 18>then I just like, you know, it's it's ebb and flow.

1:14:40.680 --> 1:14:47.320
<v Speaker 18>It's like, uh, you know, you flow into the deluge

1:14:47.360 --> 1:14:50.760
<v Speaker 18>of like garbage food, right, and then then you come

1:14:50.800 --> 1:14:53.280
<v Speaker 18>out after you've had enough, and then you know, you

1:14:53.320 --> 1:14:55.439
<v Speaker 18>just go back down. But it's just over a long

1:14:55.439 --> 1:14:56.080
<v Speaker 18>period of time.

1:14:57.520 --> 1:15:02.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, do you so you've had multiple periods where

1:15:03.080 --> 1:15:06.519
<v Speaker 1>you were like there wasn't a sort of first half

1:15:06.880 --> 1:15:09.080
<v Speaker 1>in shape, second half out of shape. It was like

1:15:10.080 --> 1:15:11.880
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of time in shape, you know, a

1:15:11.920 --> 1:15:13.360
<v Speaker 1>little bit of time out of shape, a little bit

1:15:13.320 --> 1:15:15.040
<v Speaker 1>of time in, a little time out, like sort of

1:15:15.040 --> 1:15:17.440
<v Speaker 1>a back and forth type of thing.

1:15:18.560 --> 1:15:23.240
<v Speaker 18>Yeah, it's that classic sort of yo yo, right. But

1:15:23.280 --> 1:15:25.880
<v Speaker 18>I've always like loved food. And that's the thing is

1:15:25.880 --> 1:15:27.479
<v Speaker 18>that you know, I go back to it because you know,

1:15:27.479 --> 1:15:29.360
<v Speaker 18>it just tastes so good, and you know, I get

1:15:29.400 --> 1:15:31.960
<v Speaker 18>really into cooking. That's usually that brings me back into

1:15:32.000 --> 1:15:35.640
<v Speaker 18>it because I like make some homemade cookies or some

1:15:35.760 --> 1:15:39.160
<v Speaker 18>shit and I'm like, oh damn, I forgot about these.

1:15:40.080 --> 1:15:45.439
<v Speaker 1>M It's that's one of the tough things is that

1:15:46.479 --> 1:15:49.479
<v Speaker 1>you can't like achieve fitness in the same way that

1:15:49.520 --> 1:15:51.839
<v Speaker 1>you can achieve climbing to the top of a mountain.

1:15:52.680 --> 1:16:00.799
<v Speaker 1>It's like it's an ever demanding thing to stay in shape.

1:16:01.479 --> 1:16:04.320
<v Speaker 1>You know, I've gotten job a little bit like you

1:16:04.400 --> 1:16:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Ebb and Flow. I've gotten in shape many times, but

1:16:08.600 --> 1:16:12.280
<v Speaker 1>you really need to have it be a permanent lifestyle

1:16:12.479 --> 1:16:19.519
<v Speaker 1>change to stay there. But we listen food, I'm like you,

1:16:19.680 --> 1:16:22.000
<v Speaker 1>I love food, man, and so you know, it's it's

1:16:22.000 --> 1:16:29.120
<v Speaker 1>hard to it's hard to stay in the healthy lifestyle

1:16:29.240 --> 1:16:32.280
<v Speaker 1>mindset for so long. I mean, you can do the keto,

1:16:32.400 --> 1:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>you can do the whatever, you can do the you know,

1:16:34.760 --> 1:16:40.240
<v Speaker 1>you're oh, I'm gonna only eat vegetables every Tuesday, whatever

1:16:40.280 --> 1:16:42.719
<v Speaker 1>your thing is. But if you can't do that for

1:16:42.760 --> 1:16:46.639
<v Speaker 1>your entire life, you're eventually gonna, you know, balloon back up.

1:16:48.000 --> 1:16:50.480
<v Speaker 18>Yeah, you're just gonna You're just gonna die eventually.

1:16:50.560 --> 1:16:50.720
<v Speaker 5>You know.

1:16:50.760 --> 1:16:56.439
<v Speaker 18>It's kinna No, I think that, uh, you know, you

1:16:56.479 --> 1:16:58.880
<v Speaker 18>can do it. I think you can have a good

1:16:58.920 --> 1:17:01.880
<v Speaker 18>balance of both. It will eventually happen, I feel like

1:17:01.960 --> 1:17:02.840
<v Speaker 18>for the both of us.

1:17:03.240 --> 1:17:04.360
<v Speaker 13>And uh, but.

1:17:05.920 --> 1:17:08.960
<v Speaker 18>Yeah, you just gotta yeah, accept that you're gonna be

1:17:08.960 --> 1:17:11.599
<v Speaker 18>like somewhere in the middle, you know, and then eventually

1:17:11.640 --> 1:17:13.320
<v Speaker 18>it will just like level out there.

1:17:15.000 --> 1:17:19.920

<v Speaker 1>about twenty fourteen?

1:19:17.200 --> 1:19:19.680
<v Speaker 10>Okay, Yeah, so I came out as trans. I came

1:19:19.680 --> 1:19:23.280
<v Speaker 10>out as a trans man female to male in twenty

1:19:23.360 --> 1:19:30.280
<v Speaker 10>fourteen and started my transition from there, just so that

1:19:30.360 --> 1:19:36.160
<v Speaker 10>I can put my head. Okay, And you know, so

1:19:36.240 --> 1:19:39.160
<v Speaker 10>I've been living my life as a man since for

1:19:39.520 --> 1:19:41.599
<v Speaker 10>what is that almost eight years now.

1:19:41.840 --> 1:19:44.360
<v Speaker 1>And damn it, eight years.

1:19:45.880 --> 1:19:48.840
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, May twenty fourteen is when I came out.

1:19:49.120 --> 1:19:52.160
<v Speaker 1>I go, sorry, I interrupted you with my realization of

1:19:52.200 --> 1:19:53.080
<v Speaker 1>the passage of time.

1:19:54.840 --> 1:19:56.800
<v Speaker 10>No, you're all good, it's been it's been a fat

1:19:56.840 --> 1:20:03.680
<v Speaker 10>fucking minute, and like, okay, so god, okay. So I

1:20:03.800 --> 1:20:08.400
<v Speaker 10>was engaged to another transman for a couple of years,

1:20:08.600 --> 1:20:16.200
<v Speaker 10>and at some point in our relationship, I realized that I.

1:20:15.200 --> 1:20:17.320
<v Speaker 12>Don't identify as a man anymore.

1:20:18.439 --> 1:20:21.719
<v Speaker 4>And the thing.

1:20:21.600 --> 1:20:24.679
<v Speaker 10>Is, I got top surgery, So I got my breasts removed,

1:20:24.720 --> 1:20:28.439
<v Speaker 10>I got my name legally changed. I look like a man.

1:20:28.520 --> 1:20:31.960
<v Speaker 10>I've lived my life as a man for you know,

1:20:32.080 --> 1:20:35.160
<v Speaker 10>my entire adult life so far. I'm almost twenty one,

1:20:36.120 --> 1:20:40.040
<v Speaker 10>and you know, I have been since fucking middle school.

1:20:40.280 --> 1:20:46.200
<v Speaker 10>And I couldn't talk to him about it because he

1:20:46.320 --> 1:20:49.120
<v Speaker 10>wasn't able to get surgery, he wasn't able to change

1:20:49.160 --> 1:20:53.880
<v Speaker 10>his name, and he got personally very offended that I

1:20:53.920 --> 1:20:57.840
<v Speaker 10>could have regrets about these privileges that I was given.

1:20:58.840 --> 1:21:04.600
<v Speaker 10>And so yeah, so he made his you know, his

1:21:04.760 --> 1:21:07.439
<v Speaker 10>issues mine, and it just forced me back into the

1:21:07.479 --> 1:21:13.840
<v Speaker 10>closet basically. And so the best that I could get

1:21:13.880 --> 1:21:17.400
<v Speaker 10>away with without starting a fight at home was coming

1:21:17.439 --> 1:21:21.599
<v Speaker 10>out as non binary. So I've been living my best

1:21:21.720 --> 1:21:25.479
<v Speaker 10>day them life for like eight months, but I'm still

1:21:25.520 --> 1:21:26.960
<v Speaker 10>not happy.

1:21:28.320 --> 1:21:30.800
<v Speaker 1>And you're no, go ahead. I want to want to

1:21:30.840 --> 1:21:32.240
<v Speaker 1>be finish for before I chime him.

1:21:33.920 --> 1:21:38.439
<v Speaker 10>Okay, no worries, but see, it all came to a

1:21:38.479 --> 1:21:40.800
<v Speaker 10>head this morning. So I started dating assist man. So

1:21:40.880 --> 1:21:43.799
<v Speaker 10>I started dating a man who was born with a penis, right, and.

1:21:43.760 --> 1:21:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Uh, so you broke up. So you broke up with

1:21:46.160 --> 1:21:47.360
<v Speaker 1>the other guy that you were seeing.

1:21:48.640 --> 1:21:52.320
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, yeah, we broke up like six months ago. And

1:21:54.600 --> 1:21:58.439
<v Speaker 10>so I'm dating a new guy now and I just

1:21:58.439 --> 1:22:00.280
<v Speaker 10>got a new job. He bought me a p of

1:22:00.320 --> 1:22:04.000
<v Speaker 10>work pants from the women's section and they gave me

1:22:04.160 --> 1:22:07.760
<v Speaker 10>Kim Possible vibes. I felt like Kim Possible wearing them,

1:22:07.960 --> 1:22:11.720
<v Speaker 10>and it made me fucking songs. I just I was like,

1:22:11.840 --> 1:22:16.559
<v Speaker 10>holy shit, but you know, and I just it was

1:22:16.640 --> 1:22:20.120
<v Speaker 10>this sense of gender euphoria that I haven't felt in

1:22:20.320 --> 1:22:24.280
<v Speaker 10>fucking years. And like, I just realized, I want to

1:22:24.280 --> 1:22:26.439
<v Speaker 10>wear dresses and I want to have long hair, and

1:22:26.479 --> 1:22:27.960
<v Speaker 10>I want to be pretty, and I don't want to

1:22:28.000 --> 1:22:30.120
<v Speaker 10>be as boyfriend. I want to be his fucking girlfriend.

1:22:30.200 --> 1:22:35.519
<v Speaker 10>And like, it's just I spent so long working the

1:22:35.560 --> 1:22:38.960
<v Speaker 10>transphobia out of my family and working my way into

1:22:39.000 --> 1:22:42.920
<v Speaker 10>being respected as a man, only for all of this

1:22:43.000 --> 1:22:45.120
<v Speaker 10>to come tumbling down, and I want to undo it.

1:22:45.160 --> 1:22:48.040
<v Speaker 10>And it's just like, oh, the trauma. I don't want

1:22:48.080 --> 1:22:49.840
<v Speaker 10>to go through the trauma again, you.

<v Speaker 12>But right, no, I mean.

1:27:33.560 --> 1:27:35.760
<v Speaker 1>That's that's how that's how I feel. It's like, you know,

1:27:35.840 --> 1:27:38.280
<v Speaker 1>if you've been living the way that you've lived in

1:27:38.320 --> 1:27:42.200
<v Speaker 1>the past, you shouldn't have any you know, effect on

1:27:42.280 --> 1:27:46.800
<v Speaker 1>how you live to the future, right Like whatever, man

1:27:46.880 --> 1:27:54.799
<v Speaker 1>put the put that chapter behind you and fucking go

1:27:54.800 --> 1:27:59.000
<v Speaker 1>go go live, go fuck it, go live be a

1:27:59.040 --> 1:28:02.519
<v Speaker 1>woman for a year. You be non binary for if

1:28:02.680 --> 1:28:05.559
<v Speaker 1>swept and sweat do who cares? Why are you ever

1:28:05.600 --> 1:28:10.120
<v Speaker 1>behold You're never beholden to be what you once were, right,

1:28:10.880 --> 1:28:15.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, right, that's how I heard how I feel.

1:28:15.920 --> 1:28:18.479
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I don't know if this was helpful. Again,

1:28:18.680 --> 1:28:20.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm happy to talk about these things, but

1:28:20.960 --> 1:28:23.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't like talk about it too much because I'm

1:28:23.960 --> 1:28:27.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, I can't fully empathize with the situation and

1:28:27.200 --> 1:28:31.360
<v Speaker 1>not my place and all that. But you know, I

1:28:31.680 --> 1:28:32.519
<v Speaker 1>hope that was helpful.

1:28:34.120 --> 1:28:36.519
<v Speaker 10>No, it was, it was, And like, I don't know,

1:28:36.560 --> 1:28:38.439
<v Speaker 10>you were one of the first people that I thought

1:28:38.439 --> 1:28:41.600
<v Speaker 10>of when it when the whole realization came, because you know,

1:28:41.760 --> 1:28:44.200
<v Speaker 10>I work eight and a half hour days and I

1:28:44.360 --> 1:28:47.360
<v Speaker 10>listened to your show on Spotify. I started from the

1:28:47.520 --> 1:28:50.840
<v Speaker 10>very first Spotify episode and I'm just listening from the

1:28:50.840 --> 1:28:54.080
<v Speaker 10>fucking beginning, you know, I fucking.

1:28:54.320 --> 1:28:58.000
<v Speaker 12>Like, I don't know. Every time something I emailed.

1:28:57.600 --> 1:28:59.840
<v Speaker 10>You a couple of months ago, every time something big happens,

1:28:59.840 --> 1:29:02.479
<v Speaker 10>I just want to know what the fucking gag thinks O.

1:29:03.640 --> 1:29:05.040
<v Speaker 12>You know, like, I don't know.

1:29:06.360 --> 1:29:08.280
<v Speaker 10>I know you're not like a real therapist, but you're

1:29:08.320 --> 1:29:11.599
<v Speaker 10>a real person and you have good things to say,

1:29:11.720 --> 1:29:13.040
<v Speaker 10>you have good input usually.

1:29:13.280 --> 1:29:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, thank you very much, Eden, again, wishing you the

1:29:17.080 --> 1:29:21.200
<v Speaker 1>courage to not let the past to find you given

1:29:21.240 --> 1:29:25.280
<v Speaker 1>your gecko energy and thank you for condy and you

1:29:25.280 --> 1:29:27.280
<v Speaker 1>have a good rest of the name cow.

1:29:29.720 --> 1:29:32.479
<v Speaker 13>Yes as le.

1:29:36.720 --> 1:29:36.880
<v Speaker 7>Hey.

1:29:37.080 --> 1:29:41.000
<v Speaker 13>While so I kind of want to talk today. It

1:29:41.000 --> 1:29:43.360
<v Speaker 13>seems like the subject had kind of been changing to

1:29:43.560 --> 1:29:46.800
<v Speaker 13>morality and this kind of fits me. I really haven't

1:29:46.800 --> 1:29:51.760
<v Speaker 13>told anyone this other than the screener before. I'm gonna

1:29:51.760 --> 1:29:54.760
<v Speaker 13>make it short. And you know this is a no

1:29:54.880 --> 1:29:58.839
<v Speaker 13>judge in free zone. So a little background. I trained

1:29:58.880 --> 1:30:03.040
<v Speaker 13>people how to fly planes and small engine planes, and

1:30:03.120 --> 1:30:07.559
<v Speaker 13>normally there's weight limits. Well, I had someone that was

1:30:07.760 --> 1:30:12.160
<v Speaker 13>critically obese, let's say about three hundred and fifty pounds. Well,

1:30:12.200 --> 1:30:14.240
<v Speaker 13>I didn't want to fly him because it's a safety issue.

1:30:14.360 --> 1:30:18.280
<v Speaker 13>My boss is money hungry, so because of that, I

1:30:18.360 --> 1:30:21.200
<v Speaker 13>was doing things that I could legally do, like taking

1:30:21.240 --> 1:30:23.640
<v Speaker 13>out fuel and not being able to complete all the

1:30:23.640 --> 1:30:27.840
<v Speaker 13>flights I could. Well, one day he's good enough to

1:30:27.920 --> 1:30:31.439
<v Speaker 13>go for like a check to see his performance, so

1:30:31.479 --> 1:30:34.760
<v Speaker 13>my boss has got to fly him. Well, they weren't

1:30:34.800 --> 1:30:37.080
<v Speaker 13>able to complete the whole flight because of his weight,

1:30:37.760 --> 1:30:40.479
<v Speaker 13>and so the boss sits there and gets a scale

1:30:40.520 --> 1:30:42.400
<v Speaker 13>out and it's one of these old medical scales in

1:30:42.439 --> 1:30:45.479
<v Speaker 13>his office and they're all standing there. He hops on

1:30:45.560 --> 1:30:48.280
<v Speaker 13>the scale. They're looking at it, trying to size it up,

1:30:48.320 --> 1:30:52.000
<v Speaker 13>and I might have put my foot on there to

1:30:52.080 --> 1:30:54.800
<v Speaker 13>make it exaggerate even more than what he already weighs.

1:30:55.560 --> 1:30:58.400
<v Speaker 13>So because of that, it shows that he's about right

1:30:58.439 --> 1:31:01.479
<v Speaker 13>around four hundred. Boss tells him, you know, he can't

1:31:01.680 --> 1:31:06.640
<v Speaker 13>fly anymore, and the kid is heart broken. But my

1:31:07.640 --> 1:31:10.240
<v Speaker 13>morality is in question because I have done something wrong.

1:31:10.400 --> 1:31:15.880
<v Speaker 13>This kid has spent thousands of dollars, but now he's

1:31:15.920 --> 1:31:19.200
<v Speaker 13>lost like over one hundred pounds and is trying to

1:31:19.200 --> 1:31:23.240
<v Speaker 13>get back into flying. So I also feel partially responsible

1:31:23.280 --> 1:31:26.280
<v Speaker 13>for his newfound success and for him to further on.

1:31:26.600 --> 1:31:29.639
<v Speaker 13>And I can't tell anybody or say anything about it

1:31:29.760 --> 1:31:31.800
<v Speaker 13>because I feel so wrong about what I did in

1:31:31.840 --> 1:31:34.400
<v Speaker 13>that room, and it was just me that knows.

1:31:35.840 --> 1:31:39.280
<v Speaker 1>So here's what I don't fully. Here's what I kind

1:31:39.280 --> 1:31:44.120
<v Speaker 1>of some clarification on is So this kid was to

1:31:44.240 --> 1:31:51.080
<v Speaker 1>obese to fly safely correct and you said you put

1:31:51.120 --> 1:31:52.720
<v Speaker 1>a little bit about You said you you sort of

1:31:52.840 --> 1:31:54.640
<v Speaker 1>fucked with the weighing process and put a little bit

1:31:54.640 --> 1:31:57.360
<v Speaker 1>extra weight on him. Do you think that had you?

1:31:58.000 --> 1:32:02.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if he was already obese did the extra

1:32:02.800 --> 1:32:07.439
<v Speaker 1>weight that you put on the scale even affects the

1:32:07.560 --> 1:32:09.679
<v Speaker 1>sort of final decision of whether or not he could fly?

1:32:11.640 --> 1:32:11.840
<v Speaker 12>You know?

1:32:11.960 --> 1:32:14.559
<v Speaker 13>And that's a good question. I like to think. I

1:32:14.600 --> 1:32:17.160
<v Speaker 13>tell myself that maybe I wasn't all responsible for it,

1:32:17.240 --> 1:32:18.880
<v Speaker 13>but I did just put my foot on the back.

1:32:19.400 --> 1:32:21.639
<v Speaker 13>But I had seen him around. It's a small town,

1:32:21.640 --> 1:32:24.040
<v Speaker 13>in a grocery store, and the car is full of

1:32:24.080 --> 1:32:27.880
<v Speaker 13>more two leaders than anything I've ever seen, and more

1:32:28.320 --> 1:32:32.040
<v Speaker 13>little debu cakes than any actual greens or foods. So

1:32:32.200 --> 1:32:34.160
<v Speaker 13>maybe he actually did weigh That is what I tell

1:32:34.200 --> 1:32:36.439
<v Speaker 13>myself at night to sleep better. But I just I

1:32:36.439 --> 1:32:39.679
<v Speaker 13>don't know gek, and it's ate me alive. But again,

1:32:39.720 --> 1:32:43.360
<v Speaker 13>I still feel partially responsible for his success to lose

1:32:43.439 --> 1:32:45.599
<v Speaker 13>over one hundred pounds and be able to safely return

1:32:45.640 --> 1:32:45.960
<v Speaker 13>to flying.

1:32:47.120 --> 1:32:51.360
<v Speaker 1>So why again, I know, that's our clarification is why

1:32:51.400 --> 1:32:56.519
<v Speaker 1>did you put your foot on the scale? Was the intention?

1:32:56.720 --> 1:32:59.559
<v Speaker 1>So that was it? Like you had the intention to

1:32:59.600 --> 1:33:01.760
<v Speaker 1>protect Tim? Was it that you just didn't want to

1:33:01.800 --> 1:33:04.240
<v Speaker 1>fly and a plane with him because you were afraid?

1:33:04.880 --> 1:33:07.000
<v Speaker 1>You know? What? Was what was the intention behind that?

1:33:08.680 --> 1:33:08.960
<v Speaker 12>Okay?

1:33:09.000 --> 1:33:12.200
<v Speaker 13>Well, to be completely honest, when I first met him,

1:33:12.280 --> 1:33:15.240
<v Speaker 13>I was very honest. I said, hey, your weight is

1:33:15.240 --> 1:33:17.320
<v Speaker 13>pretty high. If you want to be a professional pilot

1:33:17.320 --> 1:33:21.439
<v Speaker 13>one day, like you're gonna have to lose your weight. Well,

1:33:21.439 --> 1:33:23.639
<v Speaker 13>he found he found a doctor that says he's good

1:33:23.680 --> 1:33:26.559
<v Speaker 13>to go, which should have been a red flag. And

1:33:26.600 --> 1:33:29.120
<v Speaker 13>then I'm having to take out a lot of fuel

1:33:29.160 --> 1:33:31.160
<v Speaker 13>out of the plane. So instead of doing two to

1:33:31.200 --> 1:33:33.800
<v Speaker 13>three hour flights, I'm only able to do one hour.

1:33:34.200 --> 1:33:36.880
<v Speaker 13>And he says he's losing weight and he's drinking water

1:33:36.920 --> 1:33:39.559
<v Speaker 13>around me, which I think is right. And so I

1:33:39.640 --> 1:33:41.559
<v Speaker 13>was like, you know what, my boss is money hungry.

1:33:41.640 --> 1:33:43.519
<v Speaker 13>This kid doesn't want to listen to me. It seems

1:33:43.560 --> 1:33:45.280
<v Speaker 13>like nobody in the world was listening to me when

1:33:45.280 --> 1:33:47.000
<v Speaker 13>I'm just trying to be safe. So I was like,

1:33:47.360 --> 1:33:49.479
<v Speaker 13>I'm gonna if he steps on the scale, and he did,

1:33:49.520 --> 1:33:50.800
<v Speaker 13>I was like, I'm put my foot on the.

1:33:50.720 --> 1:33:51.200
<v Speaker 12>Back of it.

1:33:54.320 --> 1:33:59.120
<v Speaker 1>M Yeah, this is a classic Like this is a

1:33:59.120 --> 1:34:07.439
<v Speaker 1>classic thing of a moral dilemma where you perform an

1:34:07.479 --> 1:34:10.439
<v Speaker 1>action that you seem to and I gain. I'm not

1:34:10.479 --> 1:34:13.080
<v Speaker 1>here to interpret what is or is not moral. I'm

1:34:13.120 --> 1:34:15.800
<v Speaker 1>just talking along with you as you're sort of telling

1:34:15.840 --> 1:34:18.680
<v Speaker 1>me all this. So you're doing what you consider to

1:34:18.760 --> 1:34:21.720
<v Speaker 1>being a moral action by putting your foot down on

1:34:21.800 --> 1:34:25.720
<v Speaker 1>the scale, and you're doing it with what could be

1:34:25.800 --> 1:34:30.800
<v Speaker 1>considered a virtuous intention, which is trying to keep this

1:34:30.880 --> 1:34:33.640
<v Speaker 1>guy from being in a plane that crashes to the

1:34:33.640 --> 1:34:35.000
<v Speaker 1>ground and kills everyone in it.

1:34:37.240 --> 1:34:40.920
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, but it almost feels like, you know we were

1:34:40.960 --> 1:34:43.360
<v Speaker 13>talking earlier in the show. You're talking about you know,

1:34:43.560 --> 1:34:46.120
<v Speaker 13>what is life? And who is me? And where are

1:34:46.160 --> 1:34:48.840
<v Speaker 13>we the real me? The real question I have is

1:34:48.960 --> 1:34:51.280
<v Speaker 13>then it kind of drives me to like who do

1:34:51.360 --> 1:34:53.160
<v Speaker 13>I talk to if I can't talk to anyone? Well,

1:34:53.200 --> 1:34:55.920
<v Speaker 13>in Cartholicism, they talk to the priest and they give

1:34:55.960 --> 1:34:57.920
<v Speaker 13>off their sins and they do a hell Mary and

1:34:57.920 --> 1:35:01.080
<v Speaker 13>and they're let go. Where is my redemption in that?

1:35:01.360 --> 1:35:03.519
<v Speaker 13>And does the priest even feel the type of weight

1:35:03.560 --> 1:35:05.080
<v Speaker 13>of their sins? Like how do they go home with

1:35:05.080 --> 1:35:05.439
<v Speaker 13>their day?

1:35:08.560 --> 1:35:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Are you? Are you a Catholic?

1:35:12.000 --> 1:35:13.200
<v Speaker 13>I am agnostic?

1:35:14.680 --> 1:35:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So you feel as though you have a heavy

1:35:20.400 --> 1:35:27.880
<v Speaker 1>weight to bear with your own actions and what you

1:35:27.920 --> 1:35:31.479
<v Speaker 1>considered to be sins, and you're sort of left to

1:35:31.560 --> 1:35:36.479
<v Speaker 1>your own devices on how to sit with these things.

1:35:37.960 --> 1:35:40.360
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, and then I just the worst part is is

1:35:40.439 --> 1:35:42.599
<v Speaker 13>when I tell you it's small town. It's a small town.

1:35:43.040 --> 1:35:45.120
<v Speaker 13>I don't tell people what I do for a living.

1:35:45.200 --> 1:35:47.479
<v Speaker 13>I like to say that I teach. And I meet

1:35:47.479 --> 1:35:50.439
<v Speaker 13>a girl and she's talking about how she's been on

1:35:50.439 --> 1:35:53.439
<v Speaker 13>her brother, her little brother, about losing weight, and I'm like, oh,

1:35:53.479 --> 1:35:55.400
<v Speaker 13>I know what you mean. I'm kind of understudent. I

1:35:55.439 --> 1:35:58.320
<v Speaker 13>really need to lose weight. And then it turns out

1:35:58.640 --> 1:36:02.919
<v Speaker 13>that she's actually related to him because she just randomly

1:36:03.000 --> 1:36:05.800
<v Speaker 13>name dropped him one time, and I get scared because

1:36:05.800 --> 1:36:08.240
<v Speaker 13>I'm like, oh my god, I'm now in the universe

1:36:08.400 --> 1:36:11.639
<v Speaker 13>is punishing me because I like this girl. And now

1:36:11.720 --> 1:36:13.680
<v Speaker 13>I feel like, how am I ever going to overcome

1:36:14.600 --> 1:36:17.720
<v Speaker 13>doing this to that kid? And then just keep this

1:36:17.840 --> 1:36:19.920
<v Speaker 13>a secret forever? Where's my confession?

1:36:23.880 --> 1:36:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Are you against confessing? And even if you were to,

1:36:26.200 --> 1:36:27.960
<v Speaker 1>who would you confess to? Would you confess to the kid?

1:36:28.200 --> 1:36:31.880
<v Speaker 1>Are you still working with him?

1:36:32.120 --> 1:36:33.439
<v Speaker 13>I'm at a whole different place.

1:36:33.560 --> 1:36:34.160
<v Speaker 7>I delete it.

1:36:34.240 --> 1:36:36.720
<v Speaker 13>I was just toxic, and I was more scared of

1:36:37.920 --> 1:36:40.040
<v Speaker 13>what if there's someone else like this because I could

1:36:40.080 --> 1:36:44.080
<v Speaker 13>see myself easily doing this again. But to confess it

1:36:44.400 --> 1:36:48.000
<v Speaker 13>to him, I would feel more comfortable confessing to the

1:36:48.000 --> 1:36:51.280
<v Speaker 13>girl it's related to him, because you know, maybe she

1:36:51.400 --> 1:36:53.280
<v Speaker 13>can judge me for my character and say, you know,

1:36:53.320 --> 1:36:56.559
<v Speaker 13>maybe you did the right thing even though it was wrong.

1:36:56.800 --> 1:37:00.040
<v Speaker 13>I don't know. Gex I'm just morally confused and it

1:37:00.120 --> 1:37:01.720
<v Speaker 13>keeps me up. I can't even tell my friends about

1:37:01.720 --> 1:37:03.080
<v Speaker 13>it because I'm scared of what they'll think.

1:37:06.400 --> 1:37:13.920
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you the the sort of thought in my

1:37:14.080 --> 1:37:16.759
<v Speaker 1>head of like, if you need something to do, because

1:37:16.800 --> 1:37:18.120
<v Speaker 1>you seem like you need something to do, you have

1:37:18.160 --> 1:37:22.680
<v Speaker 1>this like restless again armchair gecko therapy, but you have

1:37:22.760 --> 1:37:28.320
<v Speaker 1>this like restless feeling within you that's caused by like,

1:37:29.360 --> 1:37:31.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, you feeling like you don't know whether or

1:37:31.600 --> 1:37:36.200
<v Speaker 1>not you did the right thing. So I don't know,

1:37:36.240 --> 1:37:39.680
<v Speaker 1>we can't really take back our actions or anything. I

1:37:39.720 --> 1:37:42.160
<v Speaker 1>mean when you're referring to this whole thing of like

1:37:42.760 --> 1:37:44.960
<v Speaker 1>you can go to the confession area and you can

1:37:45.000 --> 1:37:47.480
<v Speaker 1>tell the priest what you did, and then it's absolved

1:37:47.520 --> 1:37:49.200
<v Speaker 1>and you can move past that. You can move on.

1:37:50.960 --> 1:37:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you just absolve yourself and then moving forward, right,

1:37:58.320 --> 1:38:02.200
<v Speaker 1>whatever sort of virtue thing you were trying to accomplish,

1:38:03.680 --> 1:38:07.320
<v Speaker 1>keeping this guy safe, encouraging him to be healthy, whatever

1:38:07.400 --> 1:38:13.599
<v Speaker 1>it is that was your positive intention, continue to move

1:38:13.640 --> 1:38:21.280
<v Speaker 1>forward with that positive intention, right, Okay, continue to sure

1:38:21.400 --> 1:38:24.040
<v Speaker 1>sure again. You know I'm talking out of my ass

1:38:24.040 --> 1:38:26.120
<v Speaker 1>a little bit here, but hit me.

1:38:26.760 --> 1:38:29.120
<v Speaker 13>Oh no, I think you're fine. And it kind of

1:38:29.120 --> 1:38:32.040
<v Speaker 13>brings me the question of how do we like We

1:38:32.040 --> 1:38:36.400
<v Speaker 13>were talking about existental crisis issues, So how do we

1:38:36.479 --> 1:38:38.880
<v Speaker 13>know who is the real Lyle? We know you as

1:38:38.920 --> 1:38:41.360
<v Speaker 13>Gek and Lyle, but who is Lyle to Lyle?

1:38:43.080 --> 1:38:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Who is Liele to Lyle? Oh jeez, I don't know.

1:38:48.160 --> 1:38:50.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm a bunch of different things. Well, this is this

1:38:50.400 --> 1:38:53.000
<v Speaker 1>is what I was talking about last stream. It's like,

1:38:53.040 --> 1:38:56.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if there is a real me. I mean,

1:38:56.360 --> 1:39:00.679
<v Speaker 1>this is whatever you see on this Twitch stream obviously

1:39:00.840 --> 1:39:02.639
<v Speaker 1>is not what I act like or who I am

1:39:02.720 --> 1:39:06.240
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent of the time. But it's no more

1:39:06.800 --> 1:39:11.599
<v Speaker 1>real or fake than how I act when I'm alone,

1:39:11.880 --> 1:39:13.519
<v Speaker 1>And how I act when I'm alone is no more

1:39:13.520 --> 1:39:17.200
<v Speaker 1>real or fake than how I act when I'm meeting

1:39:17.200 --> 1:39:19.240
<v Speaker 1>a new person for the first time and going hello,

1:39:19.320 --> 1:39:21.920
<v Speaker 1>how are you up at the You know, they're all

1:39:22.000 --> 1:39:27.240
<v Speaker 1>just versions of the self. Unranked complete end is my

1:39:27.400 --> 1:39:28.320
<v Speaker 1>version of the self.

1:39:29.120 --> 1:39:31.680
<v Speaker 13>Is my version of the self when I stip on

1:39:31.720 --> 1:39:36.599
<v Speaker 13>that scale? Is that just in only my truth, because

1:39:36.600 --> 1:39:38.040
<v Speaker 13>no one else knows that I did that.

1:39:39.720 --> 1:39:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's a version of who you are, the least

1:39:42.240 --> 1:39:48.280
<v Speaker 1>at least according to you know, my haphazardly crafted philosophy

1:39:48.360 --> 1:39:50.920
<v Speaker 1>of the real selves and whatever. Yeah, that's a version

1:39:50.960 --> 1:39:53.719
<v Speaker 1>of who you are. Yeah, all the bad, the most

1:39:53.840 --> 1:39:56.360
<v Speaker 1>terrible shit you've not that that you know, Not that

1:39:56.360 --> 1:39:58.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm judging that as terrible. I'm just saying this separately.

1:39:58.520 --> 1:40:02.479
<v Speaker 1>But all the most terrible shit you've ever done, it's

1:40:02.520 --> 1:40:05.400
<v Speaker 1>probably you. But also all the greatest stuff you've ever done,

1:40:05.479 --> 1:40:09.920
<v Speaker 1>that's you. Two they coexist in a weird, smelly bubble

1:40:11.040 --> 1:40:14.920
<v Speaker 1>of uh, you know, blood and farts. That is a

1:40:15.120 --> 1:40:16.360
<v Speaker 1>human body and brain.

1:40:18.960 --> 1:40:22.280
<v Speaker 13>So how do I go about going forward and making

1:40:22.280 --> 1:40:24.799
<v Speaker 13>sure that I don't do something like this again? Because

1:40:25.439 --> 1:40:28.519
<v Speaker 13>maybe not in this situation of wait, what if I

1:40:28.560 --> 1:40:31.479
<v Speaker 13>see someone that is maybe you know, not paying attention

1:40:31.520 --> 1:40:34.120
<v Speaker 13>to the details or for example, on their phone, on

1:40:34.200 --> 1:40:38.560
<v Speaker 13>their flying and then you know, I kind of circumvene

1:40:38.760 --> 1:40:42.439
<v Speaker 13>in another way that is maybe in the shadows like

1:40:42.479 --> 1:40:45.559
<v Speaker 13>how I did before. Am I right to do that?

1:40:45.960 --> 1:40:48.960
<v Speaker 13>Or am I not so moral authority to say?

1:40:49.040 --> 1:40:49.120
<v Speaker 7>What?

1:40:49.200 --> 1:40:49.599
<v Speaker 13>It's good?

1:40:50.360 --> 1:40:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Here's the last thing. Here's The last thing I'll say

1:40:52.160 --> 1:40:56.519
<v Speaker 1>about this is in those situations that you just mentioned, Look,

1:40:56.840 --> 1:40:59.719
<v Speaker 1>your job. I don't know if you've told this explicitly

1:40:59.720 --> 1:41:01.360
<v Speaker 1>the way you job is, but you work in flying.

1:41:01.840 --> 1:41:06.400
<v Speaker 1>You are in your classroom or whatever you call it

1:41:06.680 --> 1:41:10.960
<v Speaker 1>with the flying guys people. You are the safety authority.

1:41:11.080 --> 1:41:15.439
<v Speaker 1>That's your job is to keep people safe. Right, So, like,

1:41:15.479 --> 1:41:20.320
<v Speaker 1>that's your job in that whole sphere is to keep

1:41:20.320 --> 1:41:22.120
<v Speaker 1>people safe. So you don't have to do that shit

1:41:22.160 --> 1:41:24.720
<v Speaker 1>in the shadows. Right If someone's on their phone while

1:41:24.720 --> 1:41:27.320
<v Speaker 1>they should be paying attention to some flight shit, you

1:41:27.320 --> 1:41:29.519
<v Speaker 1>can call them out on it. You can do whatever

1:41:29.800 --> 1:41:32.280
<v Speaker 1>whatever you were gonna do in the shadows, just do

1:41:32.400 --> 1:41:35.560
<v Speaker 1>it in the light. That's your job. You know. I

1:41:35.560 --> 1:41:38.960
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't feel bad about that, all.

1:41:38.920 --> 1:41:41.640
<v Speaker 13>Right, So I guess another version of myself is just

1:41:41.680 --> 1:41:44.320
<v Speaker 13>a safety element, and don't be in the shadows about

1:41:44.320 --> 1:41:46.400
<v Speaker 13>it and just say, hey, he's too fat.

1:41:48.439 --> 1:41:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Look if you know, if he's too fat for him

1:41:51.040 --> 1:41:53.600
<v Speaker 1>to fly safely, then fuck you got you gotta speak up.

1:41:53.600 --> 1:41:55.400
<v Speaker 1>You gotta be like, hey, he's too fat to fly safely.

1:41:55.479 --> 1:41:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Don't you know you're not being an asshole. You just

1:41:58.320 --> 1:42:00.639
<v Speaker 1>trying to protect him from crashing the plan of dying.

1:42:03.880 --> 1:42:06.040
<v Speaker 13>Thank you so much, Keg. I mean, I'm gonna I

1:42:06.040 --> 1:42:07.519
<v Speaker 13>feel better now actually talking.

1:42:07.360 --> 1:42:12.439
<v Speaker 1>About Are you still here, Kyle cut out.

1:42:13.200 --> 1:42:15.519
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I'm always here. I mean, the one thing that

1:42:15.920 --> 1:42:18.479
<v Speaker 13>I love the most about it is is like you said,

1:42:18.520 --> 1:42:21.560
<v Speaker 13>you take the authority, but be proud in the authority.

1:42:21.760 --> 1:42:24.120
<v Speaker 13>But know what you're doing is just. And I think

1:42:24.160 --> 1:42:26.439
<v Speaker 13>I've always just had conflicting feelings about what is just

1:42:26.520 --> 1:42:29.439
<v Speaker 13>because others might not see my reasoning for what is just?

1:42:30.600 --> 1:42:34.720
<v Speaker 4>Mm hm hm, Well do you see it though?

1:42:34.760 --> 1:42:36.800
<v Speaker 1>And you've give I mean, you've given me much to

1:42:36.920 --> 1:42:39.640
<v Speaker 1>You've given me much to think about. Alex, No, I

1:42:39.640 --> 1:42:42.360
<v Speaker 1>don't know I called you. I'm terrible with names. Step

1:42:42.680 --> 1:42:44.519
<v Speaker 1>I called another guy Alex today and that was in

1:42:44.640 --> 1:42:47.719
<v Speaker 1>his name. You've given me much to think about, Kyle.

1:42:48.240 --> 1:42:52.240
<v Speaker 1>You've given me much to think about. But I I gotta,

1:42:52.479 --> 1:42:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I gotta get out of here before this gets too

1:42:54.400 --> 1:42:58.080
<v Speaker 1>deep and before my head starts uh sort of uh

1:42:58.160 --> 1:43:02.320
<v Speaker 1>convulsing into some kind of black hole that cannot be reversed.

1:43:02.400 --> 1:43:05.880
<v Speaker 1>But you know, thank you for bringing this to light

1:43:05.920 --> 1:43:07.400
<v Speaker 1>with us. And I hope you have a good rest

1:43:07.400 --> 1:43:07.640
<v Speaker 1>of the night.

1:43:07.720 --> 1:43:12.799
<v Speaker 13>Kyle, Thank you, le thank you for always being you beautiful.

1:43:12.840 --> 1:43:17.519
<v Speaker 1>Thank you man. Hello, Hey, this is Jack.

1:43:18.160 --> 1:43:19.160
<v Speaker 7>Yes, this is Jack.

1:43:20.439 --> 1:43:24.559
<v Speaker 1>Jacket says here that you exclusively sit down when you

1:43:24.600 --> 1:43:29.800
<v Speaker 1>pee and that you have Yes, I do you would

1:43:29.840 --> 1:43:30.360
<v Speaker 1>like to share with you?

1:43:30.520 --> 1:43:34.360
<v Speaker 7>Yes, I would like to share this with you. I

1:43:34.479 --> 1:43:38.000
<v Speaker 7>was not expecting that. I'm thrilled right now that I'm

1:43:38.040 --> 1:43:39.720
<v Speaker 7>on call, so I just want you to know that.

1:43:41.840 --> 1:43:44.479
<v Speaker 7>But yeah, I have a story behind that. I have

1:43:44.520 --> 1:43:46.360
<v Speaker 7>a story behind that, and it is a It is

1:43:46.400 --> 1:43:50.599
<v Speaker 7>a traumatic one from when I was very young, because

1:43:50.600 --> 1:43:52.680
<v Speaker 7>whenever I tell people I sit down to pee, they're like,

1:43:52.720 --> 1:43:55.200
<v Speaker 7>why don't Why don't you stand up? You're a guy,

1:43:55.320 --> 1:43:59.519
<v Speaker 7>you know. But so when I was around the age

1:43:59.560 --> 1:44:04.200
<v Speaker 7>of three or five, it was like five, four or five,

1:44:04.320 --> 1:44:07.320
<v Speaker 7>that age range. Okay, you know how, you're pretty short

1:44:07.360 --> 1:44:08.160
<v Speaker 7>at that time, you know.

1:44:10.439 --> 1:44:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh, when you're five years old.

1:44:12.040 --> 1:44:15.880
<v Speaker 7>Child's pretty sure. Yeah, child is pretty short at like five.

1:44:15.960 --> 1:44:18.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, children traditionally are very small.

1:44:18.640 --> 1:44:26.479
<v Speaker 7>Yes, yes, so well, I uh, I have this vivid

1:44:26.520 --> 1:44:31.120
<v Speaker 7>memory of the toilet falling down, like the seat falling

1:44:31.160 --> 1:44:36.879
<v Speaker 7>down on me, and there was blood. It was painful,

1:44:37.920 --> 1:44:44.080
<v Speaker 7>and I my penis was injured. To say the least

1:44:44.320 --> 1:44:48.719
<v Speaker 7>that day. And uh, that is that is the reason

1:44:48.760 --> 1:44:51.320
<v Speaker 7>for why I sit down to pee most of the time.

1:44:51.960 --> 1:44:53.000
<v Speaker 7>The toilet pretty.

1:44:52.800 --> 1:44:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Much exclusively fell. The toylet seat fell onto your penis.

1:44:58.720 --> 1:45:00.760
<v Speaker 7>Yes, when I was like three or five, Yes, like

1:45:01.040 --> 1:45:01.599
<v Speaker 7>four or five.

1:45:01.720 --> 1:45:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, but we've got we've got little jack and

1:45:09.560 --> 1:45:16.080
<v Speaker 1>you have the the toilet seat up. Yeah, you're a

1:45:16.200 --> 1:45:20.960
<v Speaker 1>small guy, so like the so so you're standing up.

1:45:21.400 --> 1:45:24.599
<v Speaker 7>And the realm I'm standing up I was very young.

1:45:24.560 --> 1:45:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Is like, so the rim of the.

1:45:26.080 --> 1:45:28.840
<v Speaker 7>Something I don't remember, I'm sorry for.

1:45:29.920 --> 1:45:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Yes, the toilet seats is at exact pianist level. And

1:45:40.360 --> 1:45:42.360
<v Speaker 1>and stop me, stop me if i'm if I if

1:45:42.360 --> 1:45:43.560
<v Speaker 1>I have the incorrect.

1:45:43.160 --> 1:45:45.599
<v Speaker 7>But the rim of the You're pretty correct so far.

1:45:46.360 --> 1:45:54.839
<v Speaker 1>The your little penis is resting upon the rim of

1:45:55.120 --> 1:46:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the toilet seat, and then the top two parts of

1:46:02.120 --> 1:46:04.840
<v Speaker 1>the toilet, the bowl that you sit on, and then

1:46:04.920 --> 1:46:10.000
<v Speaker 1>the sort of the lid come crashing down and crush

1:46:10.320 --> 1:46:11.240
<v Speaker 1>your little penis.

1:46:13.360 --> 1:46:17.599
<v Speaker 7>Yes, it was. It was bloody. It was. This blood

1:46:17.640 --> 1:46:21.920
<v Speaker 7>was not red. This blood was it was I remember

1:46:22.120 --> 1:46:24.720
<v Speaker 7>vividly remember the being. It wasn't like terrible, but there

1:46:24.800 --> 1:46:26.400
<v Speaker 7>was there was quite a bit of blood. And it

1:46:26.439 --> 1:46:29.120
<v Speaker 7>was not red. If I remember correct, I do not

1:46:29.160 --> 1:46:31.519
<v Speaker 7>remember this blood being read, or maybe my memory is

1:46:31.640 --> 1:46:34.800
<v Speaker 7>completely wrong. But that was the weirdest thing. I'm like,

1:46:34.960 --> 1:46:38.760
<v Speaker 7>was that blood was that Maybe I'm confused to this

1:46:38.880 --> 1:46:41.840
<v Speaker 7>day what I saw if I'm being completely honest, or

1:46:41.880 --> 1:46:44.800
<v Speaker 7>if I if this is a child memory being incorrect,

1:46:44.800 --> 1:46:48.160
<v Speaker 7>you know, because that it's possible. But I know for

1:46:48.200 --> 1:46:49.519
<v Speaker 7>a fact this did happen.

1:46:50.520 --> 1:46:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and so so is and so how old are

1:46:55.160 --> 1:47:00.640
<v Speaker 1>you now? I'm eighteen, You're eighteen? And how old are

1:47:00.680 --> 1:47:01.360
<v Speaker 1>you when this happens?

1:47:01.640 --> 1:47:05.120
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, like I said, I was about like four or

1:47:05.120 --> 1:47:07.400
<v Speaker 7>five years old. I was very young, four.

1:47:07.240 --> 1:47:09.439
<v Speaker 1>Fairst Okay, so this is thirteen years in the making.

1:47:09.600 --> 1:47:12.280
<v Speaker 1>So for the for the for the following thirteen years,

1:47:12.320 --> 1:47:13.879
<v Speaker 1>you only sat down when your peede.

1:47:15.160 --> 1:47:16.760
<v Speaker 7>I've had a few times where I stand up, but

1:47:16.800 --> 1:47:19.000
<v Speaker 7>it's just I'm so used to sitting down at this point.

1:47:19.040 --> 1:47:21.200
<v Speaker 7>I don't see the point too. I mean, obviously, I'll

1:47:21.240 --> 1:47:23.479
<v Speaker 7>use a journal if I'm at like a you know

1:47:23.520 --> 1:47:25.519
<v Speaker 7>what I mean, Okay, like a yournal is different. But

1:47:25.520 --> 1:47:28.559
<v Speaker 7>if i'm at if I'm specifically at a toilet, though,

1:47:28.600 --> 1:47:29.360
<v Speaker 7>I will sit down.

1:47:30.040 --> 1:47:33.000
<v Speaker 1>So this was my expecific question. So, so this is

1:47:33.040 --> 1:47:35.320
<v Speaker 1>not some form of medical issue.

1:47:37.040 --> 1:47:40.040
<v Speaker 7>No, this is not a medical This is not pee.

1:47:40.120 --> 1:47:44.439
<v Speaker 1>This is a a fear stemming from a traumatic event.

1:47:46.240 --> 1:47:48.360
<v Speaker 7>I mean, I'm not so much in fear anymore. I'm

1:47:48.400 --> 1:47:52.120
<v Speaker 7>just lazy. I don't feel like aving. But for a

1:47:52.160 --> 1:47:55.440
<v Speaker 7>long time this was a fear stemming from a traumatic experience.

1:47:56.360 --> 1:47:59.880
<v Speaker 1>I sit down when I pee all the time because

1:47:59.920 --> 1:48:03.880
<v Speaker 1>I also am lazy. And if you're telling me, I

1:48:03.880 --> 1:48:07.520
<v Speaker 1>get to sit for like two minutes instead.

1:48:07.280 --> 1:48:08.120
<v Speaker 13>Of stinking, yeah, I don't.

1:48:08.280 --> 1:48:11.639
<v Speaker 7>I don't get why there's there's so much It seems

1:48:11.720 --> 1:48:15.520
<v Speaker 7>like it seems like there is so much like stigma

1:48:15.600 --> 1:48:18.320
<v Speaker 7>against the men sitting down to pee, and I think

1:48:18.360 --> 1:48:21.200
<v Speaker 7>we need to get rid of that. Would you agree

1:48:21.240 --> 1:48:21.400
<v Speaker 7>with me?

1:48:21.400 --> 1:48:23.680
<v Speaker 1>While fully agree with you, I think sitting down and

1:48:23.720 --> 1:48:26.519
<v Speaker 1>peeing is the optimal strategy. You get to sit down,

1:48:27.479 --> 1:48:30.559
<v Speaker 1>which is great, uh, and you get to go on

1:48:30.600 --> 1:48:37.439
<v Speaker 1>your phone. And also almost every time I pee, well,

1:48:37.479 --> 1:48:39.639
<v Speaker 1>if I ever have a boner, I'll I'll always sit

1:48:39.680 --> 1:48:42.320
<v Speaker 1>down when I pee because you know, if you yeah,

1:48:44.880 --> 1:48:46.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, splash. But even when I don't have a boner,

1:48:46.880 --> 1:48:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I find myself getting splash and everywhere and I always

1:48:51.000 --> 1:48:53.479
<v Speaker 1>almost every time I stand up and when I pee,

1:48:53.479 --> 1:48:55.200
<v Speaker 1>I I'll pee a little bit on the on the

1:48:55.320 --> 1:48:56.840
<v Speaker 1>rim and then I'll have to go get a little

1:48:56.840 --> 1:48:58.719
<v Speaker 1>piece of toilet paper and then clean.

1:48:58.840 --> 1:49:00.840
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, this is another reason.

1:49:02.160 --> 1:49:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Time is not like, hey, how come this guy peete

1:49:03.920 --> 1:49:06.719
<v Speaker 1>all over the toilet seat? So I could skip that step,

1:49:06.760 --> 1:49:09.120
<v Speaker 1>I would just sit down. Yeah, I like a man.

1:49:09.800 --> 1:49:11.720
<v Speaker 7>I hate it when I'm at work because you'll see

1:49:11.800 --> 1:49:13.760
<v Speaker 7>because whenever I work, I also see pee on the

1:49:13.760 --> 1:49:15.920
<v Speaker 7>toilet sometimes and it really like, man, I just want

1:49:15.920 --> 1:49:18.599
<v Speaker 7>to sit down. You know, got to grab the toilet paper,

1:49:18.600 --> 1:49:20.439
<v Speaker 7>grab the little like seat cover, because I want to

1:49:20.479 --> 1:49:23.360
<v Speaker 7>sit in someone's piss. And especially for me, I work.

1:49:23.439 --> 1:49:25.240
<v Speaker 7>I work a twelve hour shift, and you think I

1:49:25.280 --> 1:49:27.479
<v Speaker 7>want to stand up for that whenever I pee. No,

1:49:27.560 --> 1:49:28.720
<v Speaker 7>I want to get a chance to.

1:49:28.800 --> 1:49:33.519
<v Speaker 1>Rest exactly, take your breaks when you can get your breaks.

1:49:33.600 --> 1:49:35.519
<v Speaker 1>And then another thing with the workplace, yeah that is

1:49:35.560 --> 1:49:39.880
<v Speaker 1>that is that if you're in a small office and

1:49:39.960 --> 1:49:42.120
<v Speaker 1>you leave a little bit of pee on the toilet seat,

1:49:44.720 --> 1:49:47.800
<v Speaker 1>someone might know that that's you, and then you're the

1:49:47.800 --> 1:49:49.960
<v Speaker 1>guys on the toilet seat.

1:49:50.479 --> 1:49:52.160
<v Speaker 7>Good thing, I don't work at all off.

1:49:53.760 --> 1:49:54.519
<v Speaker 1>By just sitting down.

1:49:55.680 --> 1:50:00.320
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, yeah, I mean I think, yeah, that was. I

1:50:00.360 --> 1:50:02.880
<v Speaker 7>also have another funny story of when I was younger.

1:50:02.880 --> 1:50:04.760
<v Speaker 7>It's very short. I just crashed a golf cart when

1:50:04.800 --> 1:50:05.400
<v Speaker 7>I was really young.

1:50:06.040 --> 1:50:06.840
<v Speaker 1>I sure, can you tell?

1:50:09.840 --> 1:50:12.080
<v Speaker 7>Oh, yes, very quickly. I just like hopped in a

1:50:12.120 --> 1:50:14.839
<v Speaker 7>golf cart crashed it into a tree while my parents

1:50:14.840 --> 1:50:16.680
<v Speaker 7>and stuff were fishing. I threw the keys in the

1:50:16.720 --> 1:50:18.400
<v Speaker 7>water because to hide the evidence.

1:50:19.760 --> 1:50:21.280
<v Speaker 1>That was six seconds. That was pretty good.

1:50:23.280 --> 1:50:26.639
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, well, I appreciate talking a while. It's been, it's

1:50:26.680 --> 1:50:30.280

<v Speaker 15>What are you crazy.

1:51:50.840 --> 1:51:53.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I've been eating a lot of been

1:51:53.720 --> 1:51:56.200
<v Speaker 1>eating a lot of Asian food lately. Like I had

1:51:56.200 --> 1:52:01.000
<v Speaker 1>sushi for the first time, like two weeks ago, Like no, yeah,

1:52:01.000 --> 1:52:03.840
<v Speaker 1>like probably two weeks ago. So I've been eating a

1:52:03.880 --> 1:52:10.680
<v Speaker 1>lot of sushi, ramen, Korean barbecue, Chinese food. I had

1:52:10.760 --> 1:52:14.120
<v Speaker 1>oudan for the first time. I don't know if it's

1:52:14.160 --> 1:52:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the first time, but I haddon that was pretty good.

1:52:18.000 --> 1:52:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I could eat pizza. There's so many different kinds of food.

1:52:21.280 --> 1:52:23.040
<v Speaker 15>I think you should door dash yourself something.

1:52:24.320 --> 1:52:26.040
<v Speaker 1>Really, what should I DoorDash myself?

1:52:27.920 --> 1:52:30.240
<v Speaker 15>The first thing you thought of, said Asian food.

1:52:31.320 --> 1:52:39.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, it's enough about me, Diamond Tina. It

1:52:39.560 --> 1:52:42.040
<v Speaker 1>says here, you've been in a bunch of car accidents.

1:52:42.320 --> 1:52:45.599
<v Speaker 1>One time, even you crashed into your sister on purpose.

1:52:46.400 --> 1:52:49.839
<v Speaker 1>Tell me about that, Okay.

1:52:49.960 --> 1:52:54.120
<v Speaker 15>So I was on like a probation with like the

1:52:55.120 --> 1:52:59.800
<v Speaker 15>like drivers Bicing like department, like because when you get

1:52:59.840 --> 1:53:02.439
<v Speaker 15>in to like car accidents, or you get speeding tickets

1:53:02.479 --> 1:53:05.200
<v Speaker 15>and stuff like that, and Utah, you get points and

1:53:05.240 --> 1:53:06.920
<v Speaker 15>if you get too many points, you can get your

1:53:06.920 --> 1:53:13.040
<v Speaker 15>license taken away. And so I had gotten oh I wish,

1:53:13.520 --> 1:53:16.200
<v Speaker 15>but I had gotten into a car accident. I had

1:53:16.280 --> 1:53:19.200
<v Speaker 15>hit the back of someone's car, and I got I

1:53:19.200 --> 1:53:21.040
<v Speaker 15>don't remember how many points you get till you get

1:53:21.040 --> 1:53:24.280
<v Speaker 15>your license taken away, but I was like one point away.

1:53:25.000 --> 1:53:28.760
<v Speaker 15>And then I had got a speeding ticket, and so

1:53:29.520 --> 1:53:32.320
<v Speaker 15>I had went way over the points, and I was

1:53:32.360 --> 1:53:35.080
<v Speaker 15>put on probation instead of getting my license taken away,

1:53:35.720 --> 1:53:38.120
<v Speaker 15>and with that, I had to like not get any

1:53:38.120 --> 1:53:39.320
<v Speaker 15>tickets for the whole year.

1:53:40.040 --> 1:53:43.080
<v Speaker 2>And I was like three or four days.

1:53:42.880 --> 1:53:46.920
<v Speaker 15>Away from getting off probation, and my sister had got

1:53:46.960 --> 1:53:49.760
<v Speaker 15>pulled over and she was on the run, so she

1:53:49.960 --> 1:53:54.639
<v Speaker 15>used my name and got a speeding ticket on my name.

1:53:55.760 --> 1:53:59.479
<v Speaker 15>And my mom called me and she's like, hey, Matty,

1:53:59.640 --> 1:54:03.559
<v Speaker 15>just us your name and you got a ticket and

1:54:03.600 --> 1:54:06.280
<v Speaker 15>everything like that. And I was really angry. So I

1:54:06.320 --> 1:54:09.519
<v Speaker 15>went to my mom's house because that's where my sister lived,

1:54:09.560 --> 1:54:11.439
<v Speaker 15>and she wasn't there because my mom told her I

1:54:11.479 --> 1:54:14.479
<v Speaker 15>was all my way, So I just went and trash

1:54:14.479 --> 1:54:16.559
<v Speaker 15>her room because I was mad. And I was leaving

1:54:16.680 --> 1:54:18.759
<v Speaker 15>and I saw she was like hiding on the corner,

1:54:19.520 --> 1:54:22.960
<v Speaker 15>and so I pulled up to her car and I said, hey, bitch,

1:54:23.439 --> 1:54:25.519
<v Speaker 15>and then she ended up driving off, so I was

1:54:25.560 --> 1:54:28.760
<v Speaker 15>just chasing her around, and she ended up driving back

1:54:28.800 --> 1:54:31.599
<v Speaker 15>to my mom's house, and at that point, I felt

1:54:31.640 --> 1:54:34.360
<v Speaker 15>like the only way to kind of get back at

1:54:34.400 --> 1:54:36.960
<v Speaker 15>her was to hit her car, So she stopped in

1:54:37.000 --> 1:54:39.120
<v Speaker 15>front of my mom's house and I ended up just

1:54:39.240 --> 1:54:42.840
<v Speaker 15>hitting the back of her car, and I just remember

1:54:42.880 --> 1:54:45.880
<v Speaker 15>hearing my mom's screams, what are you doing and freaking

1:54:45.880 --> 1:54:48.000
<v Speaker 15>out and everything like that, and I just felt so

1:54:48.240 --> 1:54:49.600
<v Speaker 15>validated in that moment.

1:54:51.840 --> 1:54:59.880
<v Speaker 1>So the revenge served its purpose in making you feel yeah,

1:55:00.040 --> 1:55:00.840
<v Speaker 1>at yourself.

1:55:02.800 --> 1:55:05.000
<v Speaker 15>Kind of just I feel like maybe about the situation

1:55:05.120 --> 1:55:08.920
<v Speaker 15>because I feel like my sister would always get into trouble,

1:55:08.920 --> 1:55:12.240
<v Speaker 15>but like it's crazy things, but always getting away with it.

1:55:12.840 --> 1:55:13.120
<v Speaker 12>Yeah.

1:55:13.200 --> 1:55:19.440
<v Speaker 15>And and she portrayed your name, which then got you

1:55:19.480 --> 1:55:19.920
<v Speaker 15>in trouble.

1:55:21.600 --> 1:55:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1:55:22.720 --> 1:55:24.760
<v Speaker 15>And when I went to the police station to tell

1:55:24.800 --> 1:55:28.200
<v Speaker 15>them like this was the wrong person, they were like, well,

1:55:28.200 --> 1:55:30.120
<v Speaker 15>you need to bring her in so that we can

1:55:30.160 --> 1:55:33.520
<v Speaker 15>make a report and everything like that. And so.

1:55:34.760 --> 1:55:35.720
<v Speaker 1>How long ago is this?

1:55:37.920 --> 1:55:39.280
<v Speaker 15>Oh, it was like last year.

1:55:39.840 --> 1:55:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And what is your relationship like with your sister? Now?

1:55:44.560 --> 1:55:48.680
<v Speaker 15>It's better, She's not like doing crazy hooligan stuff anymore.

1:55:49.520 --> 1:55:54.840
<v Speaker 1>M I'm glad to hear that it's better. And you

1:55:54.880 --> 1:55:57.400
<v Speaker 1>had gotten a lot of points on your license. You

1:55:57.440 --> 1:56:00.240
<v Speaker 1>were telling me what what was it again that you

1:56:00.240 --> 1:56:03.440
<v Speaker 1>said these points were from?

1:56:03.640 --> 1:56:06.680
<v Speaker 15>So like, if you my first points I got was

1:56:06.760 --> 1:56:10.680
<v Speaker 15>I accidentally crashed into the back of someone's car, and

1:56:10.720 --> 1:56:12.520
<v Speaker 15>I think I got like forty nine points for that,

1:56:12.640 --> 1:56:15.280
<v Speaker 15>and I think you at fifty you'll get your license

1:56:15.320 --> 1:56:18.480
<v Speaker 15>taken away. So when I got my speeding ticket a

1:56:18.520 --> 1:56:21.760
<v Speaker 15>little like a few months later or like five months later,

1:56:23.000 --> 1:56:24.240
<v Speaker 15>that's when I was putting on probation.

1:56:25.400 --> 1:56:27.280
<v Speaker 1>What do you think it is that compels you to

1:56:28.240 --> 1:56:29.440
<v Speaker 1>drive so recklessly?

1:56:33.240 --> 1:56:36.560
<v Speaker 15>I don't know. I even one time was driving home

1:56:36.560 --> 1:56:40.320
<v Speaker 15>from work and I was driving really fast and like

1:56:40.560 --> 1:56:42.440
<v Speaker 15>on these roads it was kind of like farm land,

1:56:42.520 --> 1:56:45.360
<v Speaker 15>so like the roads were like super lonely in there,

1:56:45.440 --> 1:56:48.320
<v Speaker 15>dotted so you can pass people on them, and I

1:56:48.440 --> 1:56:51.000
<v Speaker 15>was passing my coworker and ended up like flying off

1:56:51.040 --> 1:56:56.480
<v Speaker 15>the side of the road and totaled my car.

1:56:58.520 --> 1:57:02.880
<v Speaker 1>I it's kind of sounds like the points system is

1:57:03.240 --> 1:57:04.600
<v Speaker 1>working as it is intended to.

1:57:07.000 --> 1:57:09.920
<v Speaker 15>Oh, definitely, but it's been a long time since I've

1:57:09.960 --> 1:57:11.240
<v Speaker 15>crashed a car.

1:57:12.280 --> 1:57:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so the points? Is there way to get points

1:57:16.040 --> 1:57:18.120
<v Speaker 1>removed or are points permanent?

1:57:19.880 --> 1:57:22.240
<v Speaker 15>No, you can get them removed, so like after a year,

1:57:22.600 --> 1:57:25.920
<v Speaker 15>I think like half of them come off and then

1:57:25.960 --> 1:57:29.520
<v Speaker 15>you can take like like a safety class kind of

1:57:29.760 --> 1:57:31.040
<v Speaker 15>and then get the rest taken off.

1:57:31.920 --> 1:57:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and are you working towards getting the rest of

1:57:34.360 --> 1:57:35.560
<v Speaker 1>your points removed?

1:57:37.400 --> 1:57:40.000
<v Speaker 15>I think I have already all came off, because that

1:57:40.160 --> 1:57:42.520
<v Speaker 15>was like over two years ago and I haven't done

1:57:42.520 --> 1:57:44.720
<v Speaker 15>any I'm not pulled over anything since then.

1:57:47.120 --> 1:57:49.480
<v Speaker 1>It says that you're only twenty one years old.

1:57:51.240 --> 1:57:55.000
<v Speaker 15>I'm twenty two. My birthday live on the seventeenth.

1:57:55.920 --> 1:58:01.440
<v Speaker 1>So how long have you been driving for? Since you

1:58:01.440 --> 1:58:03.640
<v Speaker 1>were sixteen? Okay, so you've had a solid five years

1:58:03.680 --> 1:58:10.520
<v Speaker 1>to rack up a cute amount of points. Yeah, and okay,

1:58:10.560 --> 1:58:12.760
<v Speaker 1>moving forward. So all right, there's a lot of elements

1:58:12.800 --> 1:58:21.280
<v Speaker 1>here that that I'm kind of interested in hearing about.

1:58:21.360 --> 1:58:23.960
<v Speaker 1>There's the relationship with your sister, which you are telling

1:58:24.000 --> 1:58:29.360
<v Speaker 1>me has been mended. There's your reckless driving habits. Have

1:58:29.480 --> 1:58:37.000
<v Speaker 1>you made active effort to start driving less recklessly after

1:58:37.120 --> 1:58:38.360
<v Speaker 1>all these I feel like.

1:58:40.200 --> 1:58:44.040
<v Speaker 15>I feel like I wasn't intentionally trying to drive recklessly,

1:58:45.920 --> 1:58:50.320
<v Speaker 15>but I feel like I don't steeve as much anymore.

1:58:50.920 --> 1:58:53.040
<v Speaker 15>I still do, just not excessively.

1:58:54.000 --> 1:59:04.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay, that's good. It's good. And your viewpoint on revenge,

1:59:06.960 --> 1:59:10.440
<v Speaker 1>the fact that the revenge that you tell of in

1:59:10.480 --> 1:59:15.200
<v Speaker 1>the story made you feel good, do you think that

1:59:15.240 --> 1:59:18.240
<v Speaker 1>in the future you will continue to seek vengeance as

1:59:18.240 --> 1:59:21.520
<v Speaker 1>heavily as you did in that one instance.

1:59:25.000 --> 1:59:28.640
<v Speaker 15>Definitely, not, just because there was just a lot more

1:59:29.000 --> 1:59:31.360
<v Speaker 15>to that, Like a lot of more things that happened

1:59:31.400 --> 1:59:34.880
<v Speaker 15>that cause that revenge, Like my sister has even like

1:59:35.160 --> 1:59:38.040
<v Speaker 15>burned caught, like the middle school we went to she

1:59:38.160 --> 1:59:42.120
<v Speaker 15>caught it on fire. She's were on high speed chases,

1:59:42.520 --> 1:59:47.040
<v Speaker 15>She's been with like stolen cars, and she just always

1:59:47.040 --> 1:59:49.040
<v Speaker 15>seems to get away with those things. And my mom

1:59:49.080 --> 1:59:52.280
<v Speaker 15>would never punish her either, So I feel like in

1:59:52.320 --> 1:59:54.560
<v Speaker 15>my way, that was kind of me punishing her.

1:59:57.240 --> 2:00:03.800
<v Speaker 1>So it was a bit of vigilante Jessic, Yes, for everybody.

2:00:04.600 --> 2:00:07.680
<v Speaker 1>And your sister, you say, burnt down a.

2:00:07.680 --> 2:00:12.160
<v Speaker 15>Middle school, not like burnt it down, but there was

2:00:12.160 --> 2:00:15.480
<v Speaker 15>like they called it, like the science hall, and she

2:00:15.720 --> 2:00:19.360
<v Speaker 15>was like lighting the toilet paper on fire for some reason,

2:00:19.400 --> 2:00:21.760
<v Speaker 15>and it just like caught the other role on fire,

2:00:21.840 --> 2:00:24.640
<v Speaker 15>and then just the whole bathroom caught on fire.

2:00:26.320 --> 2:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>And what is it that is really, at the end

2:00:31.800 --> 2:00:39.440
<v Speaker 1>of the day fueling your desire to enact this vigilante justice?

2:00:41.360 --> 2:00:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Is it? And you say, you say it's for the

2:00:44.560 --> 2:00:49.880
<v Speaker 1>good of everyone? So is this necessarily Does this have

2:00:49.920 --> 2:00:53.480
<v Speaker 1>to do with some belief that you have in law

2:00:53.520 --> 2:00:57.360
<v Speaker 1>and order? Does this have to do with, you know,

2:00:57.840 --> 2:01:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, jealousy of your sister's ability to continually

2:01:02.480 --> 2:01:05.839
<v Speaker 1>evade punishment. Does it have to do with a dislike

2:01:05.920 --> 2:01:11.640
<v Speaker 1>of your sister? What is the driving force behind your

2:01:11.680 --> 2:01:18.960
<v Speaker 1>desire to restore balance, as it seems you feel as

2:01:18.960 --> 2:01:19.640
<v Speaker 1>though you were doing.

2:01:22.640 --> 2:01:24.760
<v Speaker 15>I think I just wanted her to stop doing all

2:01:24.800 --> 2:01:32.320
<v Speaker 15>that crazy stuff and just not like be a headache

2:01:32.360 --> 2:01:36.680
<v Speaker 15>for everybody, because like at that part, my mom wasn't

2:01:36.800 --> 2:01:39.560
<v Speaker 15>really involved in our lives too much, so like I

2:01:39.560 --> 2:01:42.640
<v Speaker 15>would have to take her to core and take time

2:01:43.160 --> 2:01:46.280
<v Speaker 15>to take her. I'll tell these programs she had to do,

2:01:46.360 --> 2:01:48.520
<v Speaker 15>so it was just like a pain that I didn't

2:01:48.560 --> 2:01:50.880
<v Speaker 15>feel like doing anymore. I just wanted her to pull

2:01:50.880 --> 2:01:51.520
<v Speaker 15>her head out.

2:01:51.360 --> 2:01:52.320
<v Speaker 2>Of her ass.

2:01:54.520 --> 2:01:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Have you had an extended conversation with your sister aside

2:01:59.520 --> 2:02:02.880
<v Speaker 1>from just hitting her car, about your desire for her

2:02:03.000 --> 2:02:05.000
<v Speaker 1>to pull her head out of her ass.

2:02:07.400 --> 2:02:10.080
<v Speaker 15>Yeah, And that's why I'm saying now like our relationships school,

2:02:10.080 --> 2:02:13.160
<v Speaker 15>because she finally did that, she started going to school

2:02:13.200 --> 2:02:18.400
<v Speaker 15>and everything. So, yeah, she finally pulled her head out

2:02:18.440 --> 2:02:20.000
<v Speaker 15>of her ass. But I don't think it's anything I've

2:02:20.000 --> 2:02:22.880
<v Speaker 15>said to her or even me crashing into her car.

2:02:23.800 --> 2:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'm glad to hear that. Is there anything else

2:02:25.840 --> 2:02:28.880
<v Speaker 1>that you want to say before we go with Tina?

2:02:30.160 --> 2:02:32.040
<v Speaker 15>Well, I just want to say my own name is Dominique.

2:02:32.080 --> 2:02:34.280
<v Speaker 15>I just said diamon Tina because the last time I

2:02:34.280 --> 2:02:36.920
<v Speaker 15>got in as a screener, I didn't get through, so

2:02:37.320 --> 2:02:42.040
<v Speaker 15>I just wanted to have a grabbing name. But I

2:02:42.080 --> 2:02:44.960
<v Speaker 15>also just wanted to say that I love your stream.

2:02:45.120 --> 2:02:49.440
<v Speaker 15>I've been listening since like November or something. I saw

2:02:49.440 --> 2:02:52.600
<v Speaker 15>you on TikTok but and I figured that you would

2:02:52.600 --> 2:02:56.040
<v Speaker 15>have a podcast on Spotify or something, so that work,

2:02:56.080 --> 2:02:58.600
<v Speaker 15>and I checked you out and I've been listening since then.

2:02:58.640 --> 2:03:01.360
<v Speaker 15>I'm almost all the way caught up. I've started with

2:03:01.400 --> 2:03:04.360
<v Speaker 15>the old episodes and then worked my way up. But

2:03:05.280 --> 2:03:07.720
<v Speaker 15>I love your stream. Me and my boyfriend watched all

2:03:07.760 --> 2:03:09.840
<v Speaker 15>the time, and I just wanted to say thanks for

2:03:10.120 --> 2:03:13.320
<v Speaker 15>taking up the phone and talking to me and for

2:03:13.840 --> 2:03:14.560
<v Speaker 15>doing what you do.

2:03:15.560 --> 2:03:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Thank you very much, Dominique. I do really appreciate that,

2:03:19.040 --> 2:03:21.800
<v Speaker 1>and thank you for sharing your story with us.

2:03:23.800 --> 2:03:26.000
<v Speaker 11>Have a good one, GEG you as well.

2:03:27.680 --> 2:03:27.920
<v Speaker 12>Bye.

<v Speaker 7>Every week goes to unside.

2:03:37.080 --> 2:03:39.080
