1
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: Well, I invited you here. I thought I made myself

2
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: perfectly clear. When you're a guest in my home, you

3
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guests,

4
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: you're presences presents enough. I already had too much stuff,

5
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: So how do you dare to surbey me?

6
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 2: Welcome to I said, no gifts. It's me Bridge d Wineger.

7
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,319
Speaker 2: I hope you're having a nice day. I really mean that.

8
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: And now here we are together, We've got, you know,

9
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 2: an hour or so to go. I haven't Sometimes, you know,

10
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 2: I give a brief amount of thought as to what

11
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: I'm going to say here. Sometimes I don't. What's something

12
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 2: I could say? I had a cheese crisp a few

13
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 2: minutes ago, just a single one with some guacamuli. That

14
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 2: was a nice little snack. If anyone needs to use

15
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 2: the bathroom, do that. Now we're not going to be

16
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 2: making any stops. Let's just get into it. My guest

17
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 2: today is a dear friend and someone I find very funny,

18
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 2: and I'm just so excited to have him here. I've

19
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 2: tried to keep him away from the podcast as for

20
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 2: as long as possible, but he broke through. It's Scotty

21
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 2: landis Scotti. Hi, welcome, How are you?

22
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 3: I am wonderful all things considered, every taking everything into account,

23
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 3: I'm having a great day and it just got a

24
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 3: little better.

25
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 2: Beautiful, beautiful, you're in your wonderful home, which I haven't

26
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: been to in over a year at this point.

27
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: Oh sure, you came to a couple of the Halloween

28
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 3: party of course.

29
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 2: Of course you really know how to throw a party.

30
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 3: I've been throwing some big parties. I don't do it

31
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 3: all the time, but when I do do it, I

32
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 3: make sure that everyone comes. And my big thing is

33
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 3: don't RSVP. That's like my main rule.

34
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: The tents that you said that in sounds like you're

35
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 2: currently throwing enormous parties.

36
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I am breaking all protocols. I could go

37
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 3: to jail for a very long time.

38
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 2: You're the epicenter of COVID in Los Angeles. Yes, I

39
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 2: am the super spreader that the parties. That's what they

40
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: call me, that's the nickname. No, but I am sitting

41
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,399
Speaker 2: on I haven't done a Halloeen party in a couple

42
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: of years because of this, But I think if everything

43
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: keeps going the course, I'm probably going to throw a

44
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: big pants cutting off party.

45
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 3: For New Year's Eve, and you and Jim will absolutely

46
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 3: be invited.

47
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: Oh beautiful. Now again, the way you said that sounds

48
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 2: like that could be misconstrued as if COVID continues, you're

49
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: going to throw the party, rather than the vaccine being distributed.

50
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 3: Right, Sorry, I meant the Yeah, you will have to

51
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 3: prove you've been vaccinated. I want not only paperwork. I

52
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 3: wanted to see a band aid on your arm, and

53
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 3: I want you to hold up an old scroll that

54
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 3: says safe.

55
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 2: The call from a doctor. I need to speak to

56
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: your physician before you can come into the party. Your

57
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: last party was twenty nineteen, I imagine.

58
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 3: Yes, I do think it was, and just because last

59
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 3: year was such a lost year, it was either nineteen

60
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: or eighteen, but it was. That was a big one.

61
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: I had to all the carpets and rugs, all towels,

62
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 3: everything out was replaced after that one. It was a

63
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 3: three true party. Yeah, that's true. It was. I would

64
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 3: guesstimate six hundred people over the course of the night.

65
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 2: So yeah, trying to remember what I dressed as that

66
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: you're I believe I went as Mary Berry and Jim

67
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: was Paul Hollywood.

68
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 3: I think that's right. I think that's right, but.

69
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 2: That feels like that was a long time ago, so

70
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 2: who can say for sure?

71
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 3: Ages? Ages?

72
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,799
Speaker 2: Now these parties are Are they any source of stress

73
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 2: for you?

74
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 3: They are leading up to them, they are. As soon

75
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 3: as the first guests arrive, it's over and I go

76
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 3: into full host mode. But about a week out, my

77
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 3: whole house is already set up, meaning like bowls and

78
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 3: serving trays, and everything's in the positions it's going to

79
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 3: be in. They usually cost a couple thousand bucks between

80
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 3: alcohol and food. I try to have tons of airplane

81
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 3: bottles of liquor and as many pre rolled joints as

82
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 3: I can in my pockets at all times, so as

83
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 3: everybody's walking through the door, they're just getting handed things.

84
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 3: So and then the day of I buy the big stress.

85
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 3: The day of is ice, because if a party doesn't

86
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 3: have ice, it's not a good party. So I order

87
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: I don't know, forty bags of ice from yummy dot com,

88
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 3: And until those arrive and are in coolers, I am

89
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 3: I'm sweating to the oldies.

90
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: Have you ever had an ice failure when you didn't

91
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 2: have enough ice or ice meltdown?

92
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 3: Uh? No, But I've been to a lot of bad parties.

93
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 2: I think I'm judging other mother hosts where I've criticizing.

94
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, just dunking on people left and right. I've

95
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 3: definitely been to parties where there's no ice and then

96
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 3: you're like, well, I would like to keep drinking, and

97
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 3: then you find yourself drinking warm gin out of a

98
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 3: solo cup and that just won't happen in our house.

99
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 2: It's terrible. I imagine you've been throwing parties as long as

100
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 2: you could have. I mean, this is a lifelong thing

101
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 2: for you, yes, but again, like you just have to

102
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 2: time them. If you're the person that throws them every

103
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,119
Speaker 2: weekend or every month or whatever, people stop coming right.

104
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 2: But in college, I lived off campus for my junior

105
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: and senior year with four friends that I was doing

106
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 2: a sketch comedy show with at the time, and when

107
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 2: we threw parties, they were massive. And I've always been

108
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 2: very good at talking to police, so a lot of

109
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 2: the times I would be sitting in the back of

110
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 2: a pickup truck with a giant ice luge that we

111
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,040
Speaker 2: have created, and the sheriff and people show up and

112
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 2: I talk them into trying the ice luge, and then

113
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,640
Speaker 2: leaving them alone, even though I'm nineteen years old, but

114
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,119
Speaker 2: I was just bold. So yes, I've thrown a dozen

115
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 2: or so really big parties over the past fifteen years

116
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 2: or twenty years, I guess. And you've never gotten in

117
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 2: any trouble outside of the cops showing up and you

118
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 2: talking them down.

119
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: Never no trouble, no fights. I tried, like, there's as

120
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 3: soon as people walk through the door, I'm like, take

121
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 3: anything you want, to steal, anything you want. Your guests here,

122
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 3: make yourself at home. I point out all the important things.

123
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:44,480
Speaker 3: I try to connect people who might know each other,

124
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 3: and they're very harmonious. I find the very fun times.

125
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say, to your credit, you literally have

126
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: hundreds of people walking around, and it feels like you

127
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 2: make time for literally everyone, meaningful time, which to me

128
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: is a miracle. I can't imagine.

129
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 3: Well, I get excited about people. So I met You

130
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 3: introduced me to Jim for the first time on my

131
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: deck during a party, and I remember I was coming

132
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 3: around the corner and you said, this is my partner, Jim,

133
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 3: and I had never met him. And to me, that's

134
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 3: the best case scenario for throwing a party, right, It's

135
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 3: not to get wrecked. It's to make sure that everybody

136
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 3: feels like they got to see all the people they

137
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 3: wanted to see. I mean, and after this, after the

138
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 3: Great Quarantine, it's going to be people are going to

139
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 3: be ready to rumble.

140
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 2: I think so too. A lot of people I will

141
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 2: hear talking about like it's going to be people are

142
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: going to be treading lightly or whatever. But I think

143
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 2: people are pent up. When there's an opportunity that feels safe,

144
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 2: I think people are going to go for it. I mean,

145
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 2: I'm a very cautious person. I take all precautions and

146
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 2: just surrounded by anxiety. But I'm ready to be in

147
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: a public space, surrounded by people, ready to be in

148
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 2: a movie theater. I'm ready for all of these things.

149
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 3: I agree. And yeah, that's something you and I would do.

150
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 3: We were movie guys. Movie guys. That's the matinee movie friends.

151
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 3: It's only a few. It's you, it's Karen, my friend,

152
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 3: Danny Fernandez, there's a few of us. There's nothing better

153
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 3: than meeting your friend who genuinely enjoys going to the movies,

154
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 3: chatting it up, watching a movie, good or bad. And

155
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 3: you and I did that many times. I look forward

156
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 3: to those too.

157
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 2: Do you remember the last movie you saw in the theater?

158
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 3: Oh I do, Uncut Gems.

159
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 2: Oh sure, sure, sure.

160
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 3: Stressed me out panic attack the whole time that movie.

161
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 2: I really liked Good Time. I loved you too Time.

162
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 2: It was extremely stressful, but I loved it. Uncut Gems.

163
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: For me, it felt like I was being like a weight,

164
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 2: was just crushing me the entire time, which obviously is

165
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 2: kind of the intent, but uh, less enjoyable experience for sure.

166
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 3: For me agreed, sweating like feeling my palm sweating sitting

167
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,479
Speaker 3: in a movie theater just so intent. It's bad decisions.

168
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: I'm not a gambler in life. I never bet or

169
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 3: gamble at all. So to watch somebody sinking spoilers deeper

170
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 3: and deeper into gambling that it was like I was thinking.

171
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 3: My whole body was screaming, what are you doing? What

172
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 3: are you doing? Right?

173
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, the end of that movie is such a release

174
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 2: when I can spoil it. I don't know if you

175
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 2: don't want to hear the spoiler of the movie, be

176
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 2: quiet for a minute.

177
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 3: Leave the podcast loudly.

178
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, But when he gets shot, it's like, thank God,

179
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 2: yes it's over. We can leave the situation. Oh yes,

180
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 2: too much, Absolutely too much. I feel like not a

181
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 2: lot of stuff bothers you. Is that true?

182
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is true.

183
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 2: Is there anything that bothers you?

184
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 3: Oh? Sure. I hate when people are bad tippers. I

185
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 3: don't like. I don't like when people are rude in

186
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 3: general to customer service people or write retail people. That

187
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 3: kind of thing can turn me off from a friendship

188
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 3: right away. I don't like being accused of doing the

189
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 3: wrong thing. If I didn't do the wrong thing, that

190
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 3: that's probably the thing that makes me the angriest, right,

191
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 3: And that's really it. Yeah, I don't get rattled very easily.

192
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 3: I'm very calm.

193
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like you've got You're one of the

194
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 2: few people I know within comedy who seems like they're

195
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: having a nice time and it feels genuine. I mean,

196
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 2: you're I mean there is a chance you have some

197
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,559
Speaker 2: sort of dark thing that's going to come out and

198
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 2: you know, you die and we all find out some

199
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 2: horrifying secret. Yes, but I yeah, you're maybe one of

200
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 2: two people I know who just actually is relaxed.

201
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,839
Speaker 3: Uh. Yes, I am, and I sleep well, and I

202
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 3: t I think what it is is I try to

203
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 3: be very present, and I don't live with really dread.

204
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,079
Speaker 3: I've noticed, especially doing with everything that's going on, and

205
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 3: a lot of my friends are worrying about a lot

206
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 3: of outcomes that I wasn't worrying about. And I feel

207
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 3: the same thing about entertainment and comedy. I'm very good

208
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: at understanding what I can control, and I'm very very

209
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 3: good at letting go of everything that is. I mean,

210
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 3: we just get rejected all the time, so at some

211
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 3: point you either get used to it or you put

212
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 3: yourself through hell. So I just decided to accept it.

213
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 2: I think that's wonderful. It's truly the opposite of how

214
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 2: I operate, which is you know some things to deal with.

215
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the results are the same. You're always working

216
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 3: on great shows, and I think that it's I don't know,

217
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 3: I have a feeling we'll collaborate on something at some point,

218
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 3: and within a writer's room, will probably work very well together.

219
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 2: And yeah, that could be interesting. Although you were really

220
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 2: headed into movie territory. I mean, Mob was such a

221
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 2: giant success and such a delight.

222
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 3: It was fun. I wanted to write a fun horror movie.

223
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 3: I felt like people weren't making those types of movies

224
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 3: anymore that like the types of movies that in the

225
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 3: nineties I really enjoyed, like or even like Fear with

226
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 3: Mark Wahlberg. I always thought that that was like it

227
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 3: felt young and fun. And then for a while it

228
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 3: was all the ring and the grudge and the eye.

229
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,040
Speaker 3: It was like it was like weird women with long

230
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 3: black hair over their face for eight years. And then

231
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 3: it was like because it get out, which was excellent.

232
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 3: I felt like so many people were trying to make

233
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 3: a statement with their horror movies. When it works fantastic,

234
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 3: When it doesn't, it feels like it's pandering. And so

235
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 3: I was like, I just want to write a movie

236
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 3: that teenagers will scream and laugh and have a great

237
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 3: time in the movie theater. That was the goal.

238
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a wonderful, wonderful goal for a

239
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 2: horror movie. I love horror movies, but I feel like

240
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 2: I've had less and less fun at them over the

241
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 2: last ten years or so. Yes, Yes, have you seen

242
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 2: any horror movies recently you've enjoyed?

243
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 3: I've been watching a ton, let me think, because I

244
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 3: watch them all all the streamers now, like everybody, I

245
00:12:56,040 --> 00:13:00,040
Speaker 3: watched that one Frozen It's about three people stuck on

246
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 3: on the ski lift overnight and it starts to freeze.

247
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 3: It's an older movie, it's about ten years old. I think,

248
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 3: pretty good, very simple concept. Do like wolves start surrounding? Yes? Okay, yeah,

249
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 3: it's on Hulu or Amazon. I really liked the ritual Netflix,

250
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 3: which I think was based on a novel.

251
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 2: That's the one where they it's like a guy's trip

252
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 2: into the woods or what have you that goes wrong.

253
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 3: Okay, which I liked that as a starting point because

254
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 3: a guy's trip is already hell to me. The idea

255
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 3: of going anywhere where three other men is like, no, thanks,

256
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 3: I'll keep thinking because I do. That's pretty much all

257
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 3: I watch. I have shudder too, and I watch every oh.

258
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 3: I watched Scare Me, Josh Ruben's movie. Josh is a

259
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 3: buddy of mine, And then have you seen that?

260
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 2: No, it's called Scare Me. It's excellent. It's so good.

261
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 3: I want it. Spoil it, Okay, I'll give you the

262
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 3: most based on poster, not spoilers at all, because I

263
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 3: highly recommend you of this movie to everybody listening. If

264
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 3: and it's not gory, I'll say that, so if you

265
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 3: if there are a lot of people that like thrillers

266
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 3: but hate gore and slasher. It's not that. It's about

267
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 3: an aspiring author who goes away to writer's weekend, meets

268
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 3: a more successful author in the same genre, and then

269
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 3: they start telling each other's stories and build on the

270
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 3: same story to try to scare each other, and then

271
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 3: horror ensues. So I really recommend it very smart.

272
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 2: Oh, I love that idea. So the actual horror breaks

273
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 2: into them telling each other scary stories.

274
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 3: Right, and try to now do each other. And there's

275
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 3: there's some layers in that one, and it's great. It's

276
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 3: a great movie.

277
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 2: Scare me fantastic. I feel I really used to like

278
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 2: people telling me scary stories, you know, when you'd go

279
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 2: camping or whatever. I can't think of any that really

280
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 2: impacted me, but they were always a good time. Do

281
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: you have any like scary stories that have genuinely frightened

282
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 2: you that people have at least posited as true stories.

283
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 3: There's one in Maryland. There's an area called Upper Melinda.

284
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 2: I love that name.

285
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 3: Oh yeah. There's this really windy road and it goes

286
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 3: from sort of this suburb down to farmland like horse country,

287
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 3: and it's this one road that everybody calls Upper Melinda,

288
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 3: and there's a stone on the side of the road

289
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 3: that's there to this day that says Upper Melinda. And

290
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 3: what I was told is that at some point in

291
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 3: that town there was a woman named Melinda, and they

292
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 3: accused her of being doing witchcraft and being an evil person,

293
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 3: and they kind of tried to smoke her out and

294
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 3: get to her, and she fled into this wooded area

295
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 3: and then the dogs lost the scent and they couldn't

296
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 3: find her. So in the middle of the night they

297
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 3: turned back, and the next morning when they'd come to

298
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 3: find her again to search again, they found her Torso

299
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 3: she had hung herself or somebody had hung her over

300
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 3: the stream that goes down next to the road. But

301
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 3: the lower half of her body was completely gone. So

302
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 3: the area is yes, because the upper half of her

303
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 3: body they never found it. They assume animals ate the

304
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 3: bottom half, but Upper Melinda is there to this day.

305
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 2: I thought you were going to tell me there was

306
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 2: like a lower Melinda area where there was another Melinda

307
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 2: that became mayor or something.

308
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's a queen of hola hooping.

309
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 2: No, we're just talking about the literal upper half of Yeah.

310
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 3: So that one stuck with me. That's wild wild, Yeah,

311
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 3: that's a good one. And then Black Aggie, which I'm

312
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 3: currently working on the script for. It was a statue.

313
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 3: It's a real thing. It exists, and it was a

314
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 3: statue built by a general and it's of it was

315
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 3: called Grief. But then it turns out that the statue

316
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 3: is was a replica and an un whatever licensed replica

317
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 3: of a French sculptor. It is the scariest thing you'll

318
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 3: ever see, Black Aggie. It was so upsetting that there

319
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 3: were always fraternity and sar already in the fifties and

320
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 3: maybe even earlier forties and fifties, where it would be like,

321
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 3: if you could spend a night in her arms, you

322
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 3: would die. And one college freshman had a heart attack

323
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 3: and died trying to sleep in front of this grave.

324
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 3: And so the legend spread so many people showed up

325
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,959
Speaker 3: that they had to remove it, and they put it

326
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 3: in the Smithsonian, and then people were having nervous breakdowns

327
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,640
Speaker 3: looking at it, so they boxed it up. Whoa, And

328
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,479
Speaker 3: now it's outside of like an insurance adjusters thing in

329
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,959
Speaker 3: Maryland's and it's just so you can walk up to

330
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 3: it but yeah, black Aggie is true Maryland folklore. Wow,

331
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:38,919
Speaker 3: we should go.

332
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 2: Do you feel like you want to be buried or cremated?

333
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 3: Definitely, not buried. I want to see what the options are.

334
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,439
Speaker 3: I feel like they're getting more creative, Like turn me

335
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 3: into a tree. That seems cool, right, the tree pod

336
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 3: seems cool.

337
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 2: And is that part of cremation or is that a

338
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 2: whole other thing.

339
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 3: I don't know. I would assume it's not part of cremation.

340
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 3: I would assume that the tree uses you as fertilizer,

341
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,119
Speaker 3: which is a mor thought to some, but to me,

342
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 3: that's okay.

343
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, I would love that.

344
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 3: Make it a plump tree.

345
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 2: I mean, you can get kind of blasted with water

346
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 2: that feels like a newer one.

347
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 3: Oh really, what's that? I don't know.

348
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 2: I feel like they blast your body with such strong

349
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 2: pressure that your body. It's kind of like a water

350
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 2: cremation essentially.

351
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 3: Well, cheers to that. I also like non morbid things.

352
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 3: I also like, you know, a nice walk, A nice

353
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 3: walk in Malibiu on the hillside.

354
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 2: That's awesome, very nice. I mean, I feel like you

355
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 2: you've done a little bit of traveling during this pandemic.

356
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 2: Safe traveling, right, Yes, where have you been?

357
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 3: Okay? So I loved driving, So I did a lot

358
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 3: of road trips and I went to places like jahat Oregon,

359
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 3: I went to Yucca Valley, I went to a lake

360
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 3: of the Ozarks. I just kind of. I went to

361
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 3: Maryland and Quarantine and then saw my family for a

362
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,479
Speaker 3: month over the holidays. So yeah, I like to drive around.

363
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 3: And as a writer, when I'm in a town where

364
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 3: I don't know anybody, in kind of a cool airbnb

365
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 3: or av casa or whatever, I find it very easy

366
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 3: to get work done, very easy, right.

367
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 2: No distractions, kind of that's the reason you're there.

368
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 3: Yes, I have family that just moved to Salt Lake City,

369
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 3: by the way, and so I think when this is over,

370
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 3: I'm going to put some serious time in there for

371
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 3: the first time in my life.

372
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 2: What are they doing in Salt Lake City?

373
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 3: They moved? I don't know they were I think they

374
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 3: moved for work during this and they fled San Francisco,

375
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 3: which I think a lot of people are doing.

376
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 2: And you truly have to be a billionaire.

377
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.

378
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 2: Wow, Well that's exciting. Maybe we'll take a trip to

379
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 2: Salt Lake City together.

380
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 3: Please, I'm gonna show me the sites. I want. The

381
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 3: nightlife of Salt Lake City, it.

382
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 2: Is a thrill. Have you spent any time there?

383
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 3: I went to Whenever we would go up to some dance,

384
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 3: we would stop near I guess where's bring them young?

385
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 2: That's in Provo.

386
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 3: So we'd stop in Provo. And so I've spent I

387
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 3: would say five total nights in Provo and then we

388
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 3: do the final push up to Sundance, up to Okay City.

389
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but very little time in Salt Lake City.

390
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 3: Once or twice, Yeah, once or twice.

391
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: And Provo is not what you want to judge your

392
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,919
Speaker 2: time in Utah. I okay, good, good tonight. God bless

393
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 2: everyone in Provo. God bless. Not a lot happening.

394
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,479
Speaker 3: No, there's this one bar and the guy recognizes us

395
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 3: every year, and it really is one ounce pours at

396
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 3: a time, which is very strange when you come from

397
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 3: sei like La where they just hold it for like

398
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 3: five seconds and you're like, this is the strongest vodka

399
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 3: soda I've ever had. They're like, it's three dollars. It's

400
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 3: happy hour. But they have like the measuring the electronic

401
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 3: measuring things on the bottles there to make sure nobody's

402
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 3: getting overserved, and a lot.

403
00:20:55,240 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 2: Of unnecessary rules happening too much. Maybe yeah, quite add up, Well, Scotty,

404
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 2: I you know, I don't want to get away from

405
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:08,679
Speaker 2: Utah liquor laws so quickly, but he does. There is

406
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 2: something I'd like to talk to you about, and you

407
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 2: your referenced it a little bit earlier. Hinted at this

408
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 2: that you were near my house yesterday and you saw

409
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 2: my boyfriend and you spoke to him without my permission,

410
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 2: this kind of thing. While you were doing that, you

411
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 2: left a box I did.

412
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 3: Actually.

413
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,880
Speaker 2: Obviously, this is a podcast called I Said No Gifts.

414
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 2: You agreed to be on it a few weeks ago.

415
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 2: We share a podcast network, so all of this information

416
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 2: is readily available to you. Yet yesterday you dropped off what,

417
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 2: at least in my view, appears.

418
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 3: To be a gift. Uh, huh, it is a gift.

419
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 3: I'm a fan of your podcast. I listen to this podcast.

420
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 3: I know that you can really fly off the handle. Sure,

421
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 3: but who can't. Who doesn't you know? Everybody has their

422
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 3: moments of weakness. Yeah, so I just thought, you know,

423
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 3: I hadn't seen you in so long, and I was

424
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 3: so honored to be on I just I had to.

425
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 3: I had to give you something.

426
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 2: Okay, So with the knowledge that you know, my temper

427
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 2: can just fly out of control. These bits of rage,

428
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, just almost feels like you're provoking me,

429
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 2: you know.

430
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,879
Speaker 3: I let's just say, I'm glad we're not in studio together,

431
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 3: you know, as somebody's going to take some self portraits tomorrow.

432
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 3: I'm glad that we are not within arms reach of

433
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 3: each other right now.

434
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 2: Fists would be flying, my nails would be just right

435
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 2: in your eyes.

436
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 3: Yes.

437
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 2: Should I open it here on the podcast?

438
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 3: I would enjoy it if you open it now. It's

439
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 3: boxing a Christmas box, right, I mean I didn't want to.

440
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 3: I didn't want to say it's in kind of an out.

441
00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 2: Of season box, uh, despite the fact that every day

442
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 2: I am singing Christmas songs because those for whatever reason,

443
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 2: I'm just trapped in a time loop of holiday with

444
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,879
Speaker 2: this pandemic. Yes, it also has a little card on

445
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,199
Speaker 2: the top that says B and Jay, which to me,

446
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 2: I mean, you've now dragged my boyfriend into the podcast.

447
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 3: Yes I did. I wrote you guys a little note.

448
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:24,679

449
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 3: the air. You must if you want to read it death.

450
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 2: I would love to get an erotic note onto.

451
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 3: Well, it's a drawing, so describe it. Okay.

452
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 2: It's a little card with some Oh this is a

453
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 2: very cute card with some plants on it. It says, oh,

454
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 2: hello there, says Bridger and Jimmy. Congratulations on your new home.

455
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 2: In non pandemic times, I would have warmed it already.

456
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 2: I look forward to passing out in your yard in

457
00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 2: the fall of twenty twenty one. From Scotty. Okay, Scotty,

458
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 2: you're making a lot of big assumptions. You're assuming that

459
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,120
Speaker 2: I would ever.

460
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 4: Allow you in my home, you will ever be allowed back,

461
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 4: So we'll just throw all that to the side and

462
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 4: we'll see what the future brings.

463
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 3: But that's very sweet.

464
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 2: Also, assuming that the pandemic will be over, which I'm

465
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 2: in favor of. I think we're all on board with

466
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 2: this ending. So let's hope that you pass out in

467
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 2: my backyard and hopefully it'll be it'll resolve itself. And

468
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 2: I'm going to open this box, says Merry Christmas on it.

469
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 2: What's happening here? So there's some bubble wrap. Let's I'm

470
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 2: gonna before I look at the side of I just

471
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 2: I've never had bubble wrap on air.

472
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 3: Pop it. Yeah, it's a new experience. Yeah, this is ASMR,

473
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 3: I believe.

474
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, this podcast. People tune in for a sound effect.

475
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, they like folly artists. They like people like when

476
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 3: they're exercising with earbuds in noise canceling earbuds to have

477
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 3: bubble that popped as loudly as possible.

478
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 2: They're blasting the podcast in the car and suddenly their

479
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 2: speakers are blown out. This is a big podcast in

480
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 2: the fully community. Okay, here we are. We're getting to

481
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 2: the gift. I have no idea what this is. Well, good,

482
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 2: I'm looking at what's like a little metal Uh it's Oh,

483
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 2: it's a flower sifter.

484
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 3: Yes it is.

485
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 2: This is I've never seen a flower sifter that looks

486
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 2: like this.

487
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 3: Well, it's a vintage flower sifter. I know that you're

488
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 3: a big baker. I know that you've switched over to

489
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: different bread flour. I really do listen to your pop

490
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 3: and you know I want you to be able to

491
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 3: make your flower even lighter and area and mix it

492
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 3: more accurate for measuring and so that's for future baking

493
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 3: in your new home Scotty.

494
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 2: This is this is one of you know, I talk

495
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 2: about this a lot. I have a difficult time buying

496
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 2: myself anything at all. If I need something, I'll just

497
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 2: find a way around it and do the worst version

498
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 2: of that. And that's largely how I live my life.

499
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:06,159
Speaker 2: And this is something within the realm of baking. I've

500
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: needed a flower system multiple times and I've just said no,

501
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 2: the flower will not be sifted, and I will whatever

502
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 2: comes comes, I will enjoy it. It's also I've wanted to,

503
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,320
Speaker 2: you know, occasionally you want to sprink some sprinkle some

504
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 2: powdered sugar on a dessert, this sort of thing. This

505
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: is exactly what I need. Where did you get it?

506
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 3: I got it on Etsy, but I did a little

507
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 3: research to make sure I didn't get some like you know,

508
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 3: I didn't want to get some crappy one. So it's

509
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 3: a I hope you use it for many, many years

510
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 3: or it falls apart the first time you make crapes.

511
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 3: I mean, it's yeah, it's a vintage flower sifter for you.

512
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,760
Speaker 3: And I thought it was good enough. I thought it

513
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 3: looked attractive enough that if you already had one, maybe

514
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:56,959
Speaker 3: would turn your kitchen into a cracker barrel you know, right.

515
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is something you can just leave out. I

516
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 2: love a tool that can be you can leave out

517
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 2: out of laziness and it doesn't make things look worse.

518
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 3: I agree. I've been for years. I've been saying they

519
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: need to make vacuums that look like art so that

520
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 3: you can just leave them in your living room and

521
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 3: at any moment just vacuum, Like, how is that not something?

522
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 3: How is it that a thing? Smart?

523
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 2: That is a complete shark tank pitch if I've ever

524
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 2: heard one a vacuum that I mean anything that a

525
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 2: broom could be the same thing. Anything that is a

526
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 2: tool that is traditionally placed somewhere else. We need to

527
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 2: make them all art.

528
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 3: Yes, why not so smart? Then it's just handy. So yes,

529
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 3: that's art. But also I hope it's functional for you.

530
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 2: It feels functional to me, and if it isn't, I'll

531
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: be demanding a refund. Finally me, I will just have

532
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,199
Speaker 2: an absolute freak out. Do you buy things on atsy?

533
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 2: Often not a ton? No, I not a ton.

534
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 3: Sometimes I'll find some old vintage like spuds, Mackenzie satin

535
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 3: jackets or old you know that kind of thing. But

536
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 3: for gift giving occasionally if I'm looking for something specific,

537
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 3: Etsy's pretty good.

538
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 2: Etsy is becoming more and more part of my life.

539
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 2: I've had a lot of recommendations through this podcast or

540
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 2: off of it for things I wouldn't even think about buying, right,

541
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 2: I mean, I just recently bought a T shirt on

542
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 2: it with a gift from this podcast actually, but it's

543
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 2: kind of replaced eBay for me.

544
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's yes, it's great. I mean, there's a lot

545
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 3: of great stuff on there. I was at a party

546
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 3: the first year I moved out to LA and I

547
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,959
Speaker 3: was with my friend Amory, and there was a an

548
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 3: older comedian there who is with his date was a

549
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 3: younger woman, and the older comedian gets so high on weed.

550
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 3: He gets so stoned that he's like just smiling in

551
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 3: the corner. And so we kind of felt, Mamory and

552
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 3: I felt like we should entertain this girlfriend who was

553
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 3: like the one person sort of out of the inner

554
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 3: circle of friends, right. And so we're talking to her

555
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 3: and Mamory goes, oh my gosh, I love your earrings.

556
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 3: And she goes, oh my god, thank you. I got

557
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 3: them on this new website it's called E T S

558
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 3: Why And Mamry goes Etsy. Yeah, we know what Etsy is,

559
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 3: and it was like this poor thing was just like

560
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 3: trying to be like, oh, I know something you two

561
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:21,960
Speaker 3: don't know, and we're like French fried potatoes, Yeah, we've

562
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 3: had them. We dip them in squashed tomatoes. Yeah. It

563
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 3: was very sweet moment.

564
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 2: Ets why I love whenever someone takes a high status

565
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 2: about a very well known piece.

566
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 5: Of imp I think you really do do that. I

567
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 5: think that is I think you really do like that.

568
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 5: I truly adore that sort of behavior. It's like what

569
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 5: you are revealing nothing except for that you're an idiot.

570
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 3: That sort of blends into something that I really love.

571
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 3: And it's when very picky eaters find one slightly non

572
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 3: traditional food that they enjoy and then they go out

573
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 3: of their way to order it at every meal that

574
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 3: they go out to with friends. I have a friend

575
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,479
Speaker 3: who pretty much lives off of like macaroni and cheese

576
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 3: and chicken fingers, and then she discovered that she liked oysters,

577
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 3: which is a big jump.

578
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 2: By the way that is it's like enormous, It's like

579
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 2: learning a new language.

580
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 3: You can't go to a jamba juice without her trying

581
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,040
Speaker 3: to order oysters. I mean it is like everywhere you go,

582
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 3: it's like, should we get some oysters? And at some

583
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 3: point you're like, we're gonna die of mercury poisoning if

584
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 3: I eat another oyster with you.

585
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: This is a pizza hut exactly, this is.

586
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 3: A Papa John's drive through location. You're like, how about Klamarian.

587
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 3: It's like, no, disgusting, and you're like, all right, fire

588
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 3: them up, twenty dozen oysters.

589
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 2: What led her to oysters outside of the mac and.

590
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 3: Cheese and no idea?

591
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, people people's eating habits are very interesting to me.

592
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 2: You know, I lived with Jim, who has a very

593
00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 2: limited palate.

594
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 3: Yes, the baby mouth pot love it right. Yeah.

595
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 2: I had something to eat that was so unbelievably disgusting

596
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 2: about seventeen years ago that it felt like rock bottom,

597
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 2: And now like I will eat literally anything.

598
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 3: Yeah.

599
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,800
Speaker 2: So it's like it couldn't possibly be worse than that. So,

600
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: but I guess a lot of people are lucky.

601
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 3: You give really good restaurant recommendations too, Like, anytime we

602
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 3: ever meet up, if you want, I'll be like, hey,

603
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 3: recommend a place. And every time Batman A thousand you're doing.

604
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 3: I love all the places you recommend, the food's always good,

605
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 3: and you're really good at finding the balance between like

606
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,719
Speaker 3: a non pretentious place that's not just a straight up

607
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 3: hole in the wall, but also someplace that's legitimately good food.

608
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 3: That Mexican place we ate in Highland Park before this

609
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 3: crash started.

610
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 2: So close to me that place is Yeah, that was

611
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 2: an exciting experience. I think that was one of the

612
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,959
Speaker 2: last I think that was right before COVID.

613
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 3: It really was so close. It was so close.

614
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 2: Oh lord, do you cook for yourself much?

615
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 3: I do? I cook? And at the start of this,

616
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 3: for the first six months of this, I was getting grocery.

617
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 3: I get every plate anyways, like food delivery or whatever.

618
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 3: But then we got it on the podcast as a sponsor,

619
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 3: so HelloFresh and every plate was sending us stuff. And

620
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 3: I will admit that, after like five months of cooking

621
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 3: two meals a day every day, I did give the

622
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 3: point where I was like, oh, But also people were

623
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 3: like carry outs, fine, delivery is fine, even if you

624
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 3: reheat it, that's fine, whatever you want to do. And

625
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 3: that helped because I was getting so sick of just

626
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 3: doing the dishes.

627
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 2: Oh my god, exhausting.

628
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 3: Yes, I cook often and I like it. I really

629
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 3: enjoy it.

630
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 2: Are you good at cooking anything in particular?

631
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 3: I'm pretty good. I would say I'm pretty good overall.

632
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 3: Like I don't have one thing that I make all

633
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 3: the time, but uh, yeah, I'm pretty good cook like

634
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 3: and not just like the traditional straight boy stuff where

635
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 3: I'm not like, well, I make a killer chicken palm

636
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 3: a stir fry, like I can kind of make it. Yeah,

637
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 3: I'm pretty good. I was really enjoying doing all the

638
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 3: new recipes for all the meal delivery places, and then

639
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 3: I started to hate doing the recipes and I just

640
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 3: would take all the ingredients and make stuff.

641
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 2: So just make whatever you want.

642
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I do enjoy it. And I waited tables

643
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 3: for six years or so, kind of between college and

644
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 3: in my early twenties, So just being in the kitchen

645
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 3: all the time and food running and just talking to

646
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 3: the servers and them saying here's this, here's this. It

647
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 3: was always really fun. Yeah.

648
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 2: That goes back to you talking about people being kind

649
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 2: too or polite to service people. Did you ever have

650
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 2: any awful customers? Oh my gosh, yes I did. And

651
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 2: I had a couple of people trying to skip checks.

652
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 2: I've had tables where be like a.

653
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 3: Live band sitting out at a beach restaurant where I'm waiting,

654
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 3: you know, six table section just slamming, but all the

655
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 3: service is really good, and they'll tip like five dollars

656
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 3: on one hundred dollars. I had this one great. I

657
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 3: had one guy during a fireworks show start choking on

658
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 3: an ice cube and only I noticed, not even his

659
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 3: wife noticed he was chewing ice, and everybody's watching fireworks

660
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 3: on the fourth of July over it was a waterfront

661
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:22,240
Speaker 3: restaurant called Bushwhackers and Pensacola Beach, Florida, and I'd noticed

662
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 3: this guy like looking down and he's the only person

663
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 3: not looking up, and I'm like, sir, can I get

664
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 3: you anything else? And he looks up to me. He

665
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 3: like points to his throat like he's choking, and I'm like,

666
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 3: stand up, stand up, stand up. And then I'm like,

667
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,759
Speaker 3: he's like pointing at his glass that that's ice, which

668
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 3: is kind of calming in a way, because you know,

669
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 3: like it's a ticking cloth.

670
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 2: Eventually that will melt, And yes, can.

671
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 3: I go get him a coffee? Like run in with

672
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 3: a coffee and dump it down his throat, and then

673
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 3: his wife turns and it's like, oh my god, and

674
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 3: then everybody turns. So he was gonna get away with

675
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:56,360
Speaker 3: this totally scott free. So I go to like try

676
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,280
Speaker 3: to give him what I think is the Heimlich maneuver,

677
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 3: and soon as I get my arm around his like sternum,

678
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 3: he just vomits all over the table. It went the

679
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 3: other way. So so everybody's Fourth of July, maybe twenty families.

680
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 3: Me with my Hawaiian shirt on and black apron holding

681
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 3: a grown man getting sick before July. And then he

682
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 3: was like I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. I'm like,

683
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 3: do you want more food? And he's like no, no, no,

684
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 3: and he just like put down his credit card, told

685
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 3: us we have to pay for it. He just left.

686
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 3: He just left the whole restaurant.

687
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:30,760
Speaker 2: Just total shame.

688
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 3: Yeah. But then the hardest part of that is and

689
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 3: also everybody makes mistakes, everybody has close calls. I wasn't

690
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 3: mad at the man. The hardest part is me going

691
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 3: up to the bus boys and going there's a clean

692
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 3: up on one oh four and you're like, I'm so sorry, guys.

693
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 3: But and then I just had like lots of weird people.

694
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 3: I worked in a pizza place and we weirdly had

695
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 3: steak a steak entree and I had this guy turned

696
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 3: send it back like six times and I'm like, he's like,

697
00:35:58,440 --> 00:35:59,879
Speaker 3: you guys just need to learn now. He's like, I'm

698
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 3: not paying for this, you guys lead in learn how

699
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 3: to cook a steak. And I was like, it's a

700
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 3: pizza place, man, I'll take it off for you, but like.

701
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 2: Next time, just get anything but the steak. You need

702
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 2: to learn how to go to a steakhouse. Yeah, why

703
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 2: are you going to a pizza restaurant for a steak?

704
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 3: That's right. I don't go to I don't go to

705
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 3: a steak. I don't go to old smokehouse and order

706
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 3: a bowl, a pizza, a large pepperoni pizza.

707
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 2: Give me a New York slice. Yeah, what the world? Yeah, jeez,

708
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 2: my waiting jobs. There were some fairly horrible people. One

709
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 2: particular person was so awful that he ordered vegetable spring

710
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 2: rolls with all the vegetables, all of the vegetables taken out,

711
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 2: and it said just meat inside, so especially meat tubes.

712
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 2: I told him, oh, I don't think we can do that,

713
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 2: and he just blew up on me. Exploded. So I

714
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 2: was forced to place these orders. And of course, because

715
00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 2: he was so terrible, every one of those roles was

716
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 2: licked before it was put into me. There we go

717
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 2: and so but you know, he had really pushed me

718
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:11,879
Speaker 2: too far. It was just that behavior is unacceptable to me. Yeah,

719
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 2: it's crazy to me to like, you're this person is

720
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 2: in control of what's coming out to be fed to you. Yes,

721
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 2: be nice to them. There's no telling what could happen

722
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 2: behind closed doores.

723
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 3: Oh well, that's the absolute truth. And it's like I

724
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 3: didn't really see anything over the years. I really did,

725
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 3: and I think for the most part, all the kitchens

726
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:34,120
Speaker 3: that I worked in as a server, I only saw

727
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,239
Speaker 3: somebody drop something once and replayed it and it was

728
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 3: a case of dia and uh, it was just kind

729
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 3: of ian. And I remember like looking at him, He's like, dude,

730
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:43,799
Speaker 3: I'm slammed, and I'm like, come on, man, I can't

731
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 3: serve that. He's like, oh, like threw the dish down.

732
00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 3: But everybody else was pretty good, even in New York.

733
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 3: The one I have just one memory. One place I worked,

734
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 3: the pizza joint, had tons of delivery, like you know,

735
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 3: they were sending out two hundredizzas night, and the delivery

736
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 3: men in Win and the people taking the orders in

737
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:05,720
Speaker 3: the restaurant were just slammed all night, three or four lines.

738
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 3: But they had this wall of do not delivers. And

739
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,280
Speaker 3: I'm sure any of your listeners who have ever worked

740
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 3: this job, it was for just a complete array of reasons,

741
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 3: like not just like always doesn't have cash or whatever,

742
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 3: Like always it's like, oh, I've paid already, like liars.

743
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 3: But there's like people that answer the door's nude. There

744
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 3: are people that are really aggressive. There are people that

745
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 3: are always so drunk that they are a mess and

746
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,800
Speaker 3: you end up having to help them get their money.

747
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 3: But that wall of sort of shame. I would love

748
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 3: that as an Urban Outfitters coffee table book of all

749
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:47,320
Speaker 3: the people delivery banned from delivery.

750
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:51,959
Speaker 2: I really think that people should be required one day

751
00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 2: to one week a year to work a service job,

752
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 2: just as a reminder of how difficult it really is

753
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 2: and all of the bullshit you have to put up with.

754
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 3: I agree. I think senior year of high school should

755
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 3: be fall semester, and then spring semester should be you

756
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 3: do one month of retail, one month of food service,

757
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 3: one month of manual labor, whether it's like yes, landscaping,

758
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,799
Speaker 3: greenhouse work, lame bricks, whatever it is. And by the

759
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 3: time you get to college, you will be a much

760
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,400
Speaker 3: better human being if you had to do that.

761
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:26,879
Speaker 2: Yes, have some level of perspective. Yes, Scottie, I feel

762
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 2: like playing a game. Do you want to play gift

763
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 2: Master or gift.

764
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 3: Or a Curse? I think let's do gift a curse.

765
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:36,919
Speaker 2: All right, let's play.

766
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 3: Because I love so your Instagram stories have been great lately.

767
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:41,760
Speaker 3: I answer every single time.

768
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 2: I hope people are having a good time with it.

769
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 2: You know, people are contributing. It feels like it's getting

770
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 2: out of control. But also it seems like people want

771
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:49,400
Speaker 2: to vote.

772
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 3: Yes, I vote on everyone, and then I'm shocked sometimes

773
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:59,240
Speaker 3: when it's like eighty percent the other way, I'm like no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, okay.

774
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:03,240
Speaker 3: I spread bulls bread balls. I was in the heavy

775
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:04,800
Speaker 3: minority on bread balls.

776
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 2: Wait, you're you think bread balls are a curse?

777
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:08,479
Speaker 3: Yes?

778
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 2: Why?

779
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 3: I just don't understand it. I don't understand the allure

780
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 3: of going out of your way for a bread ball.

781
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:21,880
Speaker 3: But I know I'm in the minority.

782
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,919
Speaker 2: I feel like you're somebody that would love a bread bull.

783
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 2: The novelty of a dish made of bread feels like

784
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 2: a Scottie landis creation.

785
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:35,400
Speaker 3: I guess so this Maybe maybe I'm just so envious

786
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 3: that I hate. Maybe I'm jealous that somebody beat me

787
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 3: to the one thing I could have delivered to this world.

788
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 2: Okay, I need a number between one and ten seven. Okay,

789
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna do the calculating. You promote, you recommend, you

790
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,439
Speaker 2: truly do whatever you want for who knows however long.

791
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,720
Speaker 2: I'll be right back with some game pieces.

792
00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 3: Well. As Bridger mentioned, I am on the Exactly Right Network.

793
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,200
Speaker 3: I am one of two people who does the Bananas Podcast.

794
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 3: The Bananas Podcast is strange and silly news from around

795
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 3: the world. All of our guests are female, trands or

796
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,760
Speaker 3: non binary, and what we do is we take really smart, silly,

797
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 3: successful women and we partner them with Kurt Brown Oler,

798
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 3: a stand up comedian, and myself. And the real news

799
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 3: headlines and stories that we tell are just launching points

800
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 3: for us to tell our own stories that are related.

801
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 3: So if you're a murderino or if you're just a

802
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 3: true crimer and you listen to Bridge to Laugh and

803
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 3: you need another escape, come over to the Bananas Podcast.

Speaker 3: We would love to have you, And if you hate it,

805
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 3: I am deeply sorry. You can tell me in person

806
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 3: when we're both vaccinated. And I hope you don't have

807
00:41:55,200 --> 00:42:00,800
Speaker 3: self portraits the next day because it will involve permanent scarring.

808
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 3: And I would also like to say yes, are you ready?

809
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:05,799
Speaker 2: No, you you were about to say. I'd also like

810
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 2: to say, so, we need to hear whatever that was

811
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 2: going to be. I took a long time, by the way,

812
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 2: but I want to hear what you were about to say,

813
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 2: unless that you've forgotten.

814
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 3: No, it's totally fine. I'm I'm happy to do whatever

815
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 3: you need me to do.

816
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 2: The next twenty minutes of this podcast is us going

817
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 2: to be politely going back and forth saying no, you

818
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 2: do what you need to go. Yes, please, you're the

819
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 2: guests here. I just want to hear what you have

820
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 2: to say.

821
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 3: Weirdly, your ratings dropped ninety percent for the last twenty minutes.

822
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,480
Speaker 2: For now one star on iTunes. We're being removed from

823
00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 2: the podcast. Isn't that the lesson learned too? I had

824
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 2: no idea that rating and reviewing on a podcast was

825
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,719
Speaker 2: ever such a big deal till I had one, and

826
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 2: then people are.

827
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 3: Like, you gotta get more reviews, you gotta get right.

828
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 3: I had no idea, and I'm like, okay, now I'm

829
00:42:58,280 --> 00:42:59,480
Speaker 3: reviewing everything, right.

830
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 2: I had never review to podcast until I had this podcast,

831
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:04,440
Speaker 2: and now I'm like my friends, everybody, yes out there

832
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:08,720
Speaker 2: reviewing podcasts. I mean, I'm yeah, you know, giving nice reviews.

833
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 2: I'm not out there. I haven't become the podcast critic.

834
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 2: That feels like it would be a wild turn for me.

835
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's a whole thing. I mean, it really

836
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,320
Speaker 2: is the things you learn when you get into the biz.

837
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,960
Speaker 2: It's just there's a whole new platform to deal with.

838
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 3: It's a radio show, and we're a part of it.

839
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 3: All I was going to say, Bridge is we have

840
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:31,879
Speaker 3: a phone called the Banana Phone that any time of day,

841
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,480
Speaker 3: I do turn it off when I'm working or when

842
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 3: I'm sleeping. But the number is two one three two

843
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 3: one four seven nine seven four, and I will talk

844
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 3: to anyone who calls it for one minute. So please

845
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:45,760
Speaker 3: give me a shout. I don't mind.

846
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,120
Speaker 2: I've been tempted to call the Banana Phone.

847
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 3: I love it.

848
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,319
Speaker 2: But you know, I also just have your phone number,

849
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 2: which feels like a more normal thing for me to do.

850
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 3: Yes, we could also do that.

851
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 2: You just have a conversation like two people who know

852
00:43:58,480 --> 00:43:58,879
Speaker 2: each other.

853
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:00,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll text you for one and talk to you

854
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 3: on the other simultaneously. Will burn it to the ground.

855
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 2: All right, let's play gift or a curse. You know

856
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 2: how it goes. I name an object, You tell me

857
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 2: if it's a gift or a curson Why then I

858
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 2: tell you why you're wrong? Okay or correct? Okay, the

859
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,319
Speaker 2: first one here, And now that we've it's been so

860
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 2: long since my calculations, I have now lost seven. Okay,

861
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,320
Speaker 2: Oh I found the first one. This is from a listener.

862
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 2: This is a gift or a curse from someone named Sidney.

863
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,840
Speaker 2: Those chocolate oranges you can get at Trader Joe's, and

864
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 2: I also assume you can get. I know you can

865
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:40,400
Speaker 2: get chocolate oranges elsewhere.

866
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 3: I will go curse on that. I feel like chocolate

867
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 3: is strong enough on its own. I think oranges are delicious.

868
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 3: I don't think we I don't think those two flavors

869
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 3: needed to find each other.

870
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 2: Okay, that's a really succinct answer, which is correct. Oh,

871
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 2: I absolutely I think that these things are a curse.

872
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 3: I mean I have.

873
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,880
Speaker 2: I've gradually learned to like a little bit of orange

874
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 2: and chocolate. But for me, I would like a piece

875
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 2: of chocolate that's shaped like an orange, and that can become,

876
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:17,280
Speaker 2: you know, pull apart like an orange without the flavor

877
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:21,120
Speaker 2: of the orange. Let's remove the orange ansense and just

878
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 2: let me have some nice chocolate that happens to be

879
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:26,000
Speaker 2: shaped like a fruit. Why is that such a problem.

880
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought it was a free country last time

881
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,640
Speaker 3: I checked. Man a chocolate orange that tastes nothing like

882
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 3: an orange.

883
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 2: I want the tactile sensation of an orange. I do

884
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,799
Speaker 2: not want the flavor of an orange. I just want

885
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,320
Speaker 2: you know, we're putting chocolate in all types of shapes

886
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,399
Speaker 2: that have other shapes, and it's not flavored like those things.

887
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 2: I mean, I can't think of one off the top.

888
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 2: I feel like I've eaten a chocolate shaped like a

889
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 2: seashell and it didn't taste like fish.

890
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 3: Of course it didn't. That would be ridiculous. So why

891
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,800
Speaker 3: do we have to have like orange juice inside of chocolate?

892
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 3: But I just think they're both chocolate. It's like a

893
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:08,040
Speaker 3: tart thing and a sour thing together. No thanks, not for.

894
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 2: Me, right, And I feel like it's not even the

895
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 2: part of the orange that people like. It feels more

896
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 2: like the rind of an orange flavor rather than the

897
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 2: you know, the fruity flavor of an orange.

898
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,839
Speaker 3: I have had. What is it when they take the yeah,

899
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,000
Speaker 3: the orange essence and then they when people draw yeah

900
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,280
Speaker 3: that I have had that on chocolate cakes and brewnies

901
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:29,920
Speaker 3: and things. And that's fine when I prefer it without it, probably,

902
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 3: But you know, I like to try new things. I'm

903
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,439
Speaker 3: not eating oysters at every Papa John say drive through.

904
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:35,440
Speaker 3: I like new things.

905
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 2: Okay, well, you're off to a good start. And now

906
00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:42,240
Speaker 2: I can see why I had a difficult time seeing

907
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,400
Speaker 2: one of them. I accidentally highlighted it and yellow and

908
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 2: it had basically vanished from my document. Okay, Gift a curse.

909
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 2: This is from somebody named Kristen. And now this is

910
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 2: something well, I'm just gonna let you answer and then

911
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 2: we'll get into it. Gifter a curse. Bluetooth water bottles

912
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 2: that tell you how much you drink Gift or a curse.

913
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 3: Are you familiar with this? I did not know that existed.

914
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,839
Speaker 3: So I'm just going to fly by the seat of

915
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 3: my pants here, and I'm going to say that's a curse.

916
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,600
Speaker 3: I think we're monitoring ourselves too much lately. I don't

917
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 3: think everything needs to communicate with us. And I think

918
00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 3: you know, have a few glasses of water every day

919
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,160
Speaker 3: and you're probably fine.

920
00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 2: Scotty wow, two out of two so far.

921
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:30,600
Speaker 1: I don't know.

922
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I've never tried one of these things. But

923
00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 2: I don't need a water bottle nagging me. What. I

924
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:39,120
Speaker 2: don't need a water bottle shaming me into drinking water. Hydration.

925
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 2: Of course, it's very important. It's a key part of

926
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 2: the human experience.

927
00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:45,400
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

928
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:49,040
Speaker 2: If you've got water, if accessible to you, you should

929
00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 2: be drinking it. It's a blessing in your life. I

930
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 2: don't need a little robot in the shape of a

931
00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 2: water bottle chirping or buzzing me in order to drink water.

932
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're to the point that you need that,

933
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 2: it's time to take a bigger look at your life.

934
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 2: Why did you have to wait until technology caught up

935
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:13,280
Speaker 2: to water bottles to start drinking water correctly?

936
00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 3: Yes, and we're all over sharing these days. And then

937
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:21,319
Speaker 3: every product that exists, from our doorbell cameras to our

938
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:25,400
Speaker 3: room bas to everything is now reporting that information back.

939
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,600
Speaker 3: Everything's listening to us. It's okay if your bottle of

940
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,120
Speaker 3: water doesn't listen to you and doesn't tell you what

941
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 3: to do. I think we could all step back about

942
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:38,200
Speaker 3: four steps and unplug way more and share way less

943
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 3: with the great neuron in the sky.

944
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 2: So right, Although, now that you're saying that about the doorbells,

945
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 2: I have an idea for a new doorbell that tells

946
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,799
Speaker 2: everyone in your social media circles how often people are

947
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 2: coming to visit your house. I feel like that could

948
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,439
Speaker 2: be a new metric for people to brag about, Look

949
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 2: how many people are ringing my bell?

950
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 3: Oh okay, yeah, that I got fifty rings this week.

951
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 3: He's very popular. Yes, I think the Great Quarantine has

952
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 3: done an incredible job of not like real adults are

953
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,319
Speaker 3: ever just popping by, but nobody is. Johnny Pemberton used

954
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 3: to live in Frogtown near where I lived, and every

955
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 3: once in a while he would just show up.

956
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:22,480
Speaker 2: Oh that's lovely, that's so I would give.

957
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 3: Him a beer and we'd sit on the on the

958
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,319
Speaker 3: deck and we'd hang out, and then he would go

959
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 3: jogging or whatever. But that's been totally shut down. So

960
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 3: now it would just be lots and lots of ups

961
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,840
Speaker 3: and FedEx and Amazon drivers who are all the nicest people.

962
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 3: I love him to death, but yes, I don't want

963
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 3: anything that I put inside my body in any way

964
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:46,360
Speaker 3: to be telling me anything.

965
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:51,480
Speaker 2: You know, absolutely not. No, thank you, and so here

966
00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:54,279
Speaker 2: you go. You're doing a good job. Let's see if

967
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:55,879
Speaker 2: you can. I mean, if you got three out of three,

968
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,280
Speaker 2: I think maybe one other person has done that before,

969
00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 2: people will freak out. The Internet will go wild, and

970
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,120
Speaker 2: you know it'll be all over the press. Tell me

971
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 2: that I'm trying to think. I have this list from

972
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,800
Speaker 2: this listener and I'm trying to find their name before

973
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,319
Speaker 2: I give it because we need to give credit where

974
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 2: credits due, and I, you know, this person sent in

975
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 2: so many I can't find their name.

976
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,880
Speaker 3: There's a lesson there too, by the way, like don't

977
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 3: overdo it and life hit them with your big three.

978
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 3: When you're writing monologue jokes, Bridge will tell you, and

979
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 3: you know you have to send in a certain number.

980
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,680
Speaker 3: Thin out that pack before you push send. Just send

981
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 3: it in.

982
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,920
Speaker 2: Okay, this I figured it out. It's from a listener

983
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:40,840
Speaker 2: named Megan. So Megan, thank you for what is literally

984
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:43,520
Speaker 2: maybe fifty items. They're all very good, but it's just

985
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:48,280
Speaker 2: it's led to some confusion on the podcast, which is fine,

986
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 2: everything's fine, we're all doing okay, But Scotty gift a curse?

987
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 2: Now think this one through. Bit moji's gift or a

988
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:06,040
Speaker 2: curse bit oji's Okay, okay, these are not an emoji.

989
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:06,719
Speaker 2: These are a.

990
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 3: Bit It's the little it's the little people. It's the

991
00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:16,440
Speaker 3: thing that looks like well, I am going to say

992
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 3: that bit moojis are I don't want to. I'm not

993
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,720
Speaker 3: going to split hairs. My heart says they're a curse

994
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 3: because but my brain says, people aren't seeing each other

995
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:35,840
Speaker 3: as much these days. Let everybody have whatever little joy

996
00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 3: a bit mooji might bring each other. But yeah, bit moojis,

997
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 3: I don't use them. I feel like I communicate very

998
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,960
Speaker 3: well with my adult friends. I think that we could

999
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 3: all like more adult things. And yeah, sorry, I know

1000
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 3: people probably love them, but it's a curse to me. Bridger,

1001
00:51:57,640 --> 00:51:58,319
Speaker 3: it really is.

1002
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 2: Two out of three bit moji's are a gift.

1003
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 3: They're so annoying.

1004
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:10,440
Speaker 2: I love how irritating they are. Okay, okay, there are

1005
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 2: such an irritating image I mean, I've never seen one

1006
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,760
Speaker 2: that I thought that was a good choice for somebody

1007
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 2: to use, right, Okay, I think that these things are

1008
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,800
Speaker 2: maybe the dumbest thing that's ever been on a phone.

1009
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 2: I don't know who's creating them. I don't know, like

1010
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,399
Speaker 2: somebody went, probably went to art school and has this

1011
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 2: is their life's work, this is what they'll be remembered for.

1012
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 2: The bit mochi is just such a deeply obnoxious way

1013
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:38,280
Speaker 2: to express yourself.

1014
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:40,359
Speaker 3: So what are you saying? Are you saying? Curse? I'm saying,

1015
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 3: curse you're saying.

1016
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 2: I think it's just so intensely annoying that it comes

1017
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:48,759
Speaker 2: full circle and I see what. I just think it

1018
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 2: tells you a lot or if you, you know, you

1019
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 2: just want to if you want to badger somebody, it's

1020
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 2: a good thing to you know. I don't know that

1021
00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:58,600
Speaker 2: I've ever even used a bit moji, but I feel

1022
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 2: like if I sent one to somebody, they would be like,

1023
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 2: what's happening?

1024
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 3: Okay, Yes I would. I would call mental health services.

1025
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 3: I would call exactly right. We would fly the Menovac

1026
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:12,640
Speaker 3: over to your house immediately with a bluetooth bottle of

1027
00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:14,719
Speaker 3: water to make sure that you had it gone off

1028
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 3: your rock or Okay, so we're saying the same thing

1029
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 3: but differently.

1030
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 4: Well, the rules of the game are very elusive, Scottie,

1031
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 4: and you have to be very these are There are

1032
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:31,279
Speaker 4: trip wires that can really explode and you lose a

1033
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:34,719
Speaker 4: leg on the gift or occurs. I'm now remembering a

1034
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 4: bit moji. I feel like a Disney at some point.

1035
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,440
Speaker 4: Of course, they teamed up with the bit moji people

1036
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 4: to promote the Alice in Wonderland movie. I created one

1037
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 4: that was maybe the most annoying image I've ever seen

1038
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,400
Speaker 4: at Hopefully I'll be able to track it down all

1039
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,279
Speaker 4: shared on the Instagram if I can. It's a really

1040
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:55,640
Speaker 4: obnoxious image. Okay, So I think that they're a gift

1041
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 4: in that way, and you know, sometimes it's like, are

1042
00:53:58,600 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 4: we going to find.

1043
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 2: The most annoying thing in existence? Are we going to

1044
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,839
Speaker 2: be able to create that? And the bitmoji people were

1045
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 2: able to do it?

1046
00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 3: Right? Okay, I yes, I think they're a curse. You

1047
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 3: think they're a gift, But I will agree that easily.

1048
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 3: We'll agree with you that when somebody sends it to you,

1049
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 3: it is a gift in that you learn something about

1050
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 3: the sender, which is probably opposite of what they think

1051
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 3: they're sending you. So okay, okay, d I really wanted

1052
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:31,600
Speaker 3: to sweep those three.

1053
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,839
Speaker 2: Three not bad, not bad, and the two first two

1054
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 2: you got in such a solid way. And you know,

1055
00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 2: nobody can say you did a bad job. I'll say

1056
00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:41,720
Speaker 2: you did a fine job.

1057
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:42,839
Speaker 3: You're kind man.

1058
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,319
Speaker 2: It's time to move on to the final segment. It's

1059
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,080
Speaker 2: now called I said no emails. People are sending in

1060
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,760
Speaker 2: emails to I said no gifts at gmail dot com.

1061
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,880
Speaker 2: Let's get into it, Scottie. I've got too many of

1062
00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 2: these to answer, and I'm trying to do a better

1063
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 2: job here.

1064
00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:57,160
Speaker 3: Okay, okay.

1065
00:54:57,160 --> 00:54:59,279
Speaker 2: This one says, Hi, I'm hoping you can help me

1066
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 2: finally gift for my dad. Here's some info about him.

1067
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 2: He's retired, single and lives on Maui. He's an ex

1068
00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 2: FBI agent, very grumpy about the government and his past life.

1069
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:15,839
Speaker 2: Doesn't like activities. Got in trouble in his condo because

1070
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 2: he plays music too loud before seven am. He wakes

1071
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 2: up at five am. He's also been reading one book

1072
00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:23,759
Speaker 2: I left for him years ago, but he's a very

1073
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,359
Speaker 2: slow reader. Okay, really taking his time with it. It's

1074
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:30,960
Speaker 2: called Oh, it's called Blitz and it's about Hitler on drugs.

1075
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,239
Speaker 2: That sounds great. I want to read that Hitler me too.

1076
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,440
Speaker 2: Didn't Hitler do speed or something? He was on measure?

1077
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,000
Speaker 2: I mean that makes sense, But otherwise he doesn't seem

1078
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:41,520
Speaker 2: to be a big reader. Okay, and again we're talking

1079
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:45,080
Speaker 2: about the father here, not Hitler. Looking forward to your help.

1080
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,120
Speaker 2: That's from Christina. This guy, this almost sounds like this

1081
00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:49,600
Speaker 2: could have been you at some point.

1082
00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:55,840
Speaker 3: No, no, MAUI no, yeah. Nice to my neighbors. I'm a.

1083
00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:01,760
Speaker 2: This is like your grumpy seven into year old twin. Yes,

1084
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 2: So what what do we want to get? Christina's dad,

1085
00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:07,719
Speaker 2: the ex FBI agent. I feel like he's already lived

1086
00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 2: this exciting life. He's blasting music. I mean the first thing,

1087
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:15,120
Speaker 2: five am. This man needs some Bluetooth headphones.

1088
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:18,600
Speaker 3: Boom noise canceling bluetooth headphones so he can walk around

1089
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:21,440
Speaker 3: his apartment. And was my first thought. He can have

1090
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,759
Speaker 3: his own silent disco, he can run his dream. He'll

1091
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:27,880
Speaker 3: hear things, he'll hear qualities in the music. He didn't

1092
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:29,080
Speaker 3: even know we're there.

1093
00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:31,520
Speaker 2: He's going to become an audio file. He's going to

1094
00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:35,399
Speaker 2: become a giant snob about the quality of his audio. Yes,

1095
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,680
Speaker 2: that's a nice latent life development for your father to

1096
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:40,120
Speaker 2: become a snob.

1097
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 3: Yes, my height. One of the first girlfriends I had

1098
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:47,800
Speaker 3: in high school, her uncle was this very he was

1099
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,480
Speaker 3: an audio file and first and he was clearly about

1100
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,759
Speaker 3: to have a midlife crisis. I probably caught him like

1101
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 3: weeks or days before the second time I met him,

1102
00:56:57,080 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 3: and he was like, do you like Pink Floyd sixteen.

1103
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:04,879
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, I don't. I am I'm very young.

1104
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,360
Speaker 3: And he's like, well, I want to play you something.

1105
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,920
Speaker 3: So he takes me to his like man cave room,

1106
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:13,319
Speaker 3: big house, big room, and he goes lay down on

1107
00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 3: the floor with your nose right there, pointing up at

1108
00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:17,960
Speaker 3: that light or whatever. I go okay, and then he

1109
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:20,600
Speaker 3: starts one of the Pink Floyd albums with his huge

1110
00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:23,600
Speaker 3: surround sound speakers and everything, and he just stood in

1111
00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:25,680
Speaker 3: the corner watching me listen. He's like, it's going to

1112
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 3: sound like that helicopter is landing right on your nose.

1113
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 3: And I remember, like the greatest acting I've ever done

1114
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 3: in my whole life was pretending like I was impressed

1115
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:38,040
Speaker 3: and enjoying this experience when really I felt like I

1116
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,120
Speaker 3: was in that one of a horror movie. Yeah, it

1117
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:43,640
Speaker 3: was like a Stephen King novel. And so afterwards he's like, Scott,

1118
00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,840
Speaker 3: he's cool, he gets it, Scott, He's cool. And I

1119
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 3: wanted to be like, we are never coming back. I'm

1120
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,600
Speaker 3: going to go to college after my sophomore year.

1121
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 2: Also, what he was describing was not enjoying music, it

1122
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,840
Speaker 2: was enjoying sound effect experience.

1123
00:57:56,000 --> 00:57:59,520
Speaker 3: That's a fully different thing, and I'm just not that guy.

1124
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 1: Wrong.

1125
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:05,000
Speaker 3: No, there's also a gift for calling a trucker's friend.

1126
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 3: It's part hammer, part as you keep it in your car.

1127
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:13,480
Speaker 3: It's for any roadside emergency. It could also be weaponized.

1128
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 3: I wish as.

1129
00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,720
Speaker 2: An ex FBI agent. You know, you have no idea

1130
00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 2: who's coming after you. Maw, he gets torrential downpours, trees

1131
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 2: could fall over. Maybe you can't get that jeep wrangler out.

1132
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:25,800
Speaker 2: There's roosters all over it.

1133
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 3: I don't.

1134
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 2: He's on the side of a volcano and an old

1135
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:29,600
Speaker 2: nemesis appears.

1136
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:32,920
Speaker 3: Yes, that coconut is not going to open itself. Absolutely

1137
00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:37,600
Speaker 3: not Trucker's Friend. You can buy him on Amazon. Dad's

1138
00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 3: Love It from dad's.

1139
00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,320
Speaker 2: Christina's dad has set let's do one more?

1140
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:44,520
Speaker 3: Why not? Why not? Here?

1141
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:48,240
Speaker 2: I just feel like I've really been falling behind here. Okay,

1142
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:50,880
Speaker 2: here's a good one. Deer Bridger an esteemed guest. So

1143
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:53,720

1144
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 2: I'm looking for help picking the perfect gift from my

1145
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 2: friend Emma, who is a ferrier.

1146
00:58:59,080 --> 00:58:59,640
Speaker 3: Ferrier.

1147
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,040
Speaker 2: She trims horses hoofs for a living, so I assume

1148
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:04,960
Speaker 2: that's what a faerrier is. I don't even know if

1149
00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:07,840
Speaker 2: I'm reading that correctly. And she's also just an amazing horsewoman.

1150
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 2: Emma and I worked together as co wranglers. Wow, this

1151
00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:14,760
Speaker 2: person is out on the trail, leading trail rides for years,

1152
00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:16,600
Speaker 2: but getting gifts for each other is hard. It seems

1153
00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 2: like everything she could ever and she has everything she

1154
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:22,640
Speaker 2: could ever need. She loves horses. I think we established that. Yes,

1155
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:26,520
Speaker 2: socks her cat and dog and the color blue. And

1156
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:28,880
Speaker 2: here's a very nice compliment. You always come up with

1157
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 2: the finest of gifts, and I would love some help

1158
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:34,240
Speaker 2: selecting the gift for Emma. All the best from Kyla

1159
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 2: or Kuila or Kyla. Okay, So Kyla and her friend

1160
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 2: Emma are out on the horses. They're always giving each

1161
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 2: other gifts.

1162
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:43,600
Speaker 3: Ferrier.

1163
00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 2: Have you ever heard of a farrier?

1164
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,160
Speaker 3: I have not. I was arguing it was somebody that

1165
00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:52,240
Speaker 3: piloted a faerry from Vancouver to Vancouver Island. I was

1166
00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 3: going the other way. And when you said horses and hooves,

1167
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 3: I was like, yes, I don't know anything.

1168
00:59:56,960 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 2: We've all learned something. This is fantastic fair or a podcast,

1169
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:05,960
Speaker 2: kind of a manicurist for a horse. I suppose what

1170
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 2: could this person? She likes horses, she likes the cat dog,

1171
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 2: she likes the color blue. We're dealing with pretty limited

1172
01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 2: palette here. I'm gonna just start combining things. You've got

1173
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,959
Speaker 2: the blue socks right there, that's an excellent gift. Someone

1174
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,720
Speaker 2: opens a box, They're looking at a plain blue pair

1175
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:25,280
Speaker 2: of socks. Their mind is blown.

1176
01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:29,680
Speaker 3: They can't use them. They're those are not going in

1177
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:33,640
Speaker 3: the trash and they probably won't be regifted. So blue

1178
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:36,320
Speaker 3: socks or blue so cute blue socks with some dogs

1179
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 3: or cats or horses on it. You're knocking, how about

1180
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:45,160
Speaker 3: an instapot? Does this? Kyla? Does your friend have an

1181
01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:47,520
Speaker 3: insta pot? People love them, They use them all the time.

1182
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:49,200
Speaker 3: I got one.

1183
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 2: Earlier in the pandemic. I got one and I used

1184
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 2: it three times. That's more than once. You know what

1185
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 2: I got Jim recently was a like a custom puzzle

1186
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,480
Speaker 2: of our dog Eatie. That was a great gift.

1187
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:06,560
Speaker 3: Wow. Maybe, Yeah, that's a great idea.

1188
01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:08,720
Speaker 2: Get one of a horse, get one of her horses,

1189
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:12,040
Speaker 2: a dog, a cat. They're kind of these are kind

1190
01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 2: of rodeo people as far as I can tell.

1191
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,120
Speaker 3: Put the dog on the horse, put the cat on

1192
01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 3: the dog, give them all funny little hats. Take a

1193
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,840
Speaker 3: great photo, make it a puzzle. This make it a

1194
01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:27,479
Speaker 3: two thousand piece puzzle. So it takes her a while

1195
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:31,959
Speaker 3: between gifts, right, maybe with a matching pair of socks. Okay,

1196
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:35,000
Speaker 3: you can get things printed on anything these days. And

1197
01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 3: if you went to the trouble of that photo shoot,

1198
01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 3: I mean probably one of those pets has been trampled

1199
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,200
Speaker 3: by a horse at this point. So you're gonna want

1200
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:45,919
Speaker 3: to get that on as many objects as you possibly can.

1201
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:49,680
Speaker 3: You want the mug, you want the tote bag, you

1202
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:53,320
Speaker 3: want the throw pillow. Yep, the world of.

1203
01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:55,880
Speaker 2: Gifting right now is very easy as far as customization.

1204
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,000
Speaker 3: Well, you don't have to watch anybody open it, which

1205
01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:00,360
Speaker 3: is the real joy. You can just me while you

1206
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:03,040
Speaker 3: open the one I gave you. That's number one this year.

1207
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,520
Speaker 3: So well, you lit up like a Christmas tree watching me. Yeah.

1208
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 2: I mean, if we had the footage, and we don't,

1209
01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:10,320
Speaker 2: I've never seen you more thrilled.

1210
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:14,640
Speaker 3: That's true. I was. I was beside myself. I almost

1211
01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:16,760
Speaker 3: dry heaved, and then i'most screamed right out of the

1212
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 3: dry heat.

1213
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:19,800
Speaker 2: But you had to turn off your audio. You were weeping.

1214
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,040
Speaker 3: I did. I did three paces in a circle on

1215
01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:23,560
Speaker 3: the ground.

1216
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:23,840
Speaker 2: Here.

1217
01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:26,840
Speaker 3: I yelled sob as well as I could slap my

1218
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,640
Speaker 3: own butt, and then I said, no, bridge, I know

1219
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:33,680
Speaker 3: you've been baking with bread flour a lot lately. Also,

1220
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:35,800
Speaker 3: I have an outside. This is a left field pitch

1221
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:42,640
Speaker 3: for Kyla. Give her in home massage or spa day.

1222
01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:46,360
Speaker 3: Because she's always taken care of horses and other animals.

1223
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:50,920
Speaker 3: Maybe it's time somebody pampered and took care of your friend.

1224
01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:54,439
Speaker 3: She sounds like a very caring person. I think maybe

1225
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 3: flip it on her and say, hey, today you get

1226
01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:57,760
Speaker 3: your hooves cleaned?

1227
01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I imagine there's some some service that's doing

1228
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 2: that safely right now.

1229
01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:10,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. Outside, you wear a mask, they wear a mask.

1230
01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 3: You can get it done.

1231
01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:15,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, get this person, send her to the barn and uh,
