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 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: perfectly clear. But you're a guest to my home. You

3
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guest,

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

5
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: So how do you dare to surbey me?

6
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: Welcome to, I said, no gifts. I'm Bridgard Wineger. We

7
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: are in the backyard. What's going on. I'm trying to

8
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: think of what you're doing right now? What are you doing?

9
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: Maybe you're taking a walk, maybe you're on a plane.

10
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe you're just got in a huge fight with

11
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 2: your mom. I don't know, but I'm here for you.

12
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 2: What's happening with me? I took a nap at noon,

13
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 2: and that's kind of a new experience. I don't think

14
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 2: I've ever napped that early in the day. I also

15
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 2: need to buy a new hose. So those are the two.

16
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 2: Those are kind of the defining things in my life

17
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 2: right now. So we should probably get into the podcast.

18
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 2: I'm very, very excited about today's guest. It's Nick Dodani. Nick.

19
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: Welcome to. I said, no gifts.

20
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 3: Thanks for having me, Bridget.

21
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 2: We had a little bit of rain, a little bit

22
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 2: set off some alarm bells in my head, so I'm

23
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: trying to remain calm.

24
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 3: It's not raining anymore.

25
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 2: No, it's kind of overcast.

26
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: I don't know who said this, but every storm ends beautiful.

27
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, every storm ends, except for the last three months

28
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 2: of Los Angeles.

29
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, that's true. That's not ending.

30
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:58,919
Speaker 2: This is simply not going away.

31
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: What's been going on with you? I just got back

32
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 3: from a big trips in New York. I'm a co

33
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 3: producer on Life Pie Broadway right. We opened last month

34
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 3: and it's running right now. It's my first time doing

35
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 3: this kind of thing, so it's been a big learning experience,

36
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 3: kind of sure, seeing what the Broadway world is like

37
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 3: and cutthroat, absolutely cutthroat. Do you know, I wouldn't say cutthroat.

38
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 3: Everyone's really like happy and excited to be there.

39
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: That's true. My boyfriend is a Broadway person and he

40
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 2: saw Life. You're gay? What I'm gay?

41
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 3: You said, boyfriend?

42
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 2: No, I meant to say my wife.

43
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: Okay, good, because I don't know if I can do

44
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: I'm looking at the producer of her. I don't think

45
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 3: I can do this otherwise.

46
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: No, I'm straight. I'm absolutely straight. I I have a

47
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: wife and four kids. Okay, so my wife was saw

48
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 2: a Life of Pie on Broadway.

49
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 3: Amazing, she loved it. Oh good, I'm glad she loved it.

50
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 2: Jim. She's a beautiful woman and we have such a

51
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 2: good time.

52
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 3: Did you really see it?

53
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 2: He saw? And he really he was amazed. Good, so

54
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 2: happy because they're they're like the do we call them puppets?

55
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 3: Puppets?

56
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: They're giant? I mean, but they're and I don't want

57
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 2: to diminish puppets, but they're beyond what you expect of

58
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 2: a puppet. It's not what I've seen.

59
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not your sock puppet. Simply, not a son,

60
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 3: simply not a sock puppet. No, the puppets are insane.

61
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 3: They really steal the show, especially the tiger Richard Parker.

62
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: I think that's the one thing I've seen.

63
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 3: There's a there's a team of I think seven or

64
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 3: eight puppeteers that rotate because it's so physically taxing that

65
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,920
Speaker 3: they have to take shifts.

66
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: Is it because is the tiger really heavy?

67
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 3: Tiger's really heavy? There's a person inside the tiger, Oh

68
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 3: not letting flat like hunched over.

69
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: Okay, wow, that requires their.

70
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 3: Arms are controlling the front legs and the back legs

71
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 3: and tail are controlled by another person, and the head

72
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 3: is controlled by another person. And occasionally, if there's a

73
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 3: lot of stuff going on, there's one or two aditional

74
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 3: puppeteers who help move it.

75
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: Wait, what what other stuff would be going on when

76
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 2: these two extra people have.

77
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 3: To show up when the tiger's jumping around? Oh?

78
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 2: Okay ya, wow, Yeah, I would love to see that.

79
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 2: I love. I went to the Bob Baker Marionette Theater

80
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 2: for the first time. How was that January? It was wonderful?

81
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: Have you ever been? No, I saw a concert there,

82
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 2: Marionette concert. No, it was a rock concert. Rock concert

83
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: is such a corny thing to say, isn't it? Rock

84
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: and roll?

85
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 3: Roll jam SASH.

86
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: They host like a concert series there a band that

87
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 2: I love played. My home was literally flooding while it

88
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 2: was happening, and I had bought tickets, So I just

89
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 2: went forgot all of my cares.

90
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: That's the really healthy thing to do.

91
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: To kind of just put your problems bury them.

92
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 3: What is property?

93
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 2: What is property?

94
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 3: You don't need to worry about.

95
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,679
Speaker 2: It's just something that can get wet over and over

96
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 2: and over, and.

97
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,600
Speaker 3: Who can I wouldn't know, I don't know anything. Well,

98
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: just prepare yourself.

99
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 2: Okay, Nick, this is something this morning I actually want

100
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: to ask you about. This is an interesting thing. I

101
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 2: think I may have accidentally invented some new slang.

102
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 3: Okay.

103
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 2: I saw a headline that said Jennifer Lopez's new drink

104
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 2: is pissing off her fans. And the first thing that

105
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 2: went off in my mind was that not that she

106
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 2: had like a beverage, but like that new drink was

107
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: a slang, like her new thing is pissing off her fans.

108
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 2: And I think new drink might be a nice I mean,

109
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 2: and then when you start talking about inventing slang, it

110
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 2: kind of takes away from it. But like, uh, what

111
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 2: could your new drink be? My new drink is taking

112
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 2: a nap at noon. I feel like this is a

113
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 2: new thing. Everybody's going to start saying, new drink, what's

114
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 2: your new drink.

115
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 3: My new drink. I don't know what my new drink is.

116
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 3: Oh man, so you took one nap at noon and

117
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 3: now that's your new drink.

118
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 2: This is my new drink.

119
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 3: There's like a really low bar for new new drinks.

120
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: Yes, it can be really anything, anything slightly new thing

121
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 2: in your life. Okay, I mean it could be pissing

122
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: off your fans.

123
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 3: Uh, that would require having fans.

124
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,119
Speaker 2: We all have fans, are parents, that's true?

125
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I spoke to your parents before this actually

126
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 3: and are not You can count them as fans anymore.

127
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 3: My new drink is actually checking my mail. I recently

128
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 3: went through a fat stack of bills that I assumed

129
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 3: also came in electronically. Right, but we're simply just unpaid.

130
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 3: Oh no for a long time. Oh for how like months,

131
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 3: over a year? No, over a year?

132
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 2: Had you been sent to collections or anything? Huh oh no?

133
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 3: It was like one medical bill was literally six dollars.

134
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 3: I didn't know this bill existed, and uh yeah, I

135
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 3: went to collections fully.

136
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 2: Just ruins your credit score.

137
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: I mean I was wondering what was going on with

138
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 3: the score, because, like, you know, that's wildly yeah, six dollars.

139
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 2: The doctor's office of the hospital just wait for you

140
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 2: to show back up.

141
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 3: Or just like let it go, leave me alone. The

142
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 3: amount of money they spent on hiring a collections agency

143
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 3: can't see worthwhile.

144
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 2: So do you just have like a mountain of mail

145
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 2: piling up at your place or what's going on there.

146
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, what I've done, and I've I'm truly my

147
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: new drink is learning that this is stupid. Is any

148
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 3: bill that I've gotten in the mail? I kind of

149
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 3: just thrown in a pile, assuming that, like I've also

150
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 3: got received an email of course. Of course, it's just

151
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 3: been automatical with some of them. They are duplicative, right,

152
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 3: I have received an email. Some of them there was

153
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 3: no email.

154
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the.

155
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 3: Email I check, and the emails I pay.

156
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 2: Of course. Well, and usually when it comes as an email,

157
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 2: it's already kind of hooked into your credit card or whatever.

158
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 2: They're kind of just taking it in the night. I

159
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 2: feel like medical bills and dental bills are weirdly still

160
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 2: arriving by mail.

161
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 3: Ye, weirdly, And you don't expect you think this one

162
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 3: was a dentist.

163
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: Oh geez, yeah, I mean the dental problem on this

164
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 2: podcast I could fill and they do hundreds of episodes.

165
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 2: I'm sorry to hear. What was the six dollars for?

166
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 2: Did she get a new retainer?

167
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 3: I honestly don't even know what it was for. I

168
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 3: was actually like, what costs six dollars?

169
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 2: Right?

170
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 3: I feel like maybe it was like a late fee

171
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 3: or like something like the amount of my insurance.

172
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 2: Covered everything up to six dollars, right, like simply couldn't go.

173
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 3: I really don't. And I didn't even care because I

174
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 3: was like, I'm just going to pay the six all.

175
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: Right, We've got to get I think a nice secret

176
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 2: from checking your mail is you've got to subscribe to

177
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: a magazine or something, something that you'll be looking forward.

178
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 3: To singing the mail. That's true.

179
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,319
Speaker 2: I don't know what that is for me. What what

180
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 2: do I look forward to singing the mail? Kind of nothing.

181
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 2: My mom sends me postcards. Oh that's sweet, yeah, very sweet.

182
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: She makes cards fan she's a fan in some ways.

183
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: I don't know that she's a listener, but she occasionally

184
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 2: I suppose. But getting those is nice.

185
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: That is really that's really sweet.

186
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 2: Subscribe to a magazine? What else? What other things? Do

187
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 2: I guess? Order things for yourself. You can get seeds

188
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 2: by male seeds.

189
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 3: Do you often seeds?

190
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 2: My brother sent me some seeds in the mail for

191
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 2: purple peas and a pepper that will not grow. The

192
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 2: peas grow, peppers don't. I don't know what the situation is.

193
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 2: Get some seeds by Maya.

194
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 3: That sounds so like good for the soul your mailbox

195
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 3: and finding seeds something to grow, and then planting them

196
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 3: and then complaining about what grows and what doesn't.

197
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 2: I mean, that's shaming your brother's gift, if that's them

198
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 2: I used to get my sister gave me for my

199
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 2: birthday once a year long subscription to Socks by Male

200
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 2: Once someone that was getting socked.

201
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 3: I thought that was a magazine for a second. That

202
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 3: was a bad idea for magazine.

203
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 2: Now you and I started a new magazine called All

204
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: the Socks, entirely about socks. That's what's spelled traditional. Okay,

205
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 2: So I mean it is kind of by the book.

206
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: There's nothing new or edgy about this sock magazine.

207
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 3: There's no X or two s's.

208
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 2: Socks with an X. Then you've got baseball teams mixed

209
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 2: steps and.

210
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 3: What about three x's.

211
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 2: Now it's like an erotic magazine. Yeah, but then what

212
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 2: I guess everyone's wearing socks and nothing else hot. There

213
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 2: we go.

214
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 3: We just cracked it. We've got an empire. Wow, cut

215
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 3: this part out and then we can actually do this.

216
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: No, this is the launch of the new magazine. We're

217
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:36,800

229
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: new drink is. I'm going to see movies. I have

230
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 2: the movie pass or whatever the hell it's called. If

231
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 2: a movie is over ninety minutes long, well over two

232
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 2: hours long, I say say to myself, go see you

233
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,680
Speaker 2: an hour and a half of it, and if you

234
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 2: want to stay you can Otherwise just walk out of

235
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 2: the theater. I've done this with two movies already.

236
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 3: Have you walked out? Yeah? What'd you walk out of?

237
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 2: Avatar? Okay, so an hour and a half of Avatar

238
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 2: is like, I don't know that anything else is going

239
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 2: to change in this movie. It'll be I know what

240
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: this is. Yeah, then John Wick four, that movie is

241
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: three hours long. Yeah, so you left the intermission I

242
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 2: basically left it, and I might go back. Yeah, but

243
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 2: it's nice to not have that pressure of being like

244
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 2: that is because life is short. Life is short. After

245
00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 2: ninety minutes in a movie, I think that they should

246
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 2: start paying you to be there. You should get overtime

247
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 2: or something.

248
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 3: If you're not in it by ninety I think it's

249
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 3: fair to.

250
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 2: Walk out, right. I think that is my new drink.

251
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,319
Speaker 2: On a least. Do you have a new drink?

252
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 4: Having a coffee at like one o'clock in the afternoon?

253
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: Oh?

254
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 4: Interesting, because I think starting it too early I get

255
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 4: I get morning anxiety.

256
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 3: So if I have a coffee.

257
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 4: At like one, I'm already awake. Okay, it gives me

258
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 4: that nice pep because then usually you crash in the afternoon.

259
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 4: It avoids that crash. I usually it's like half and half.

260
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 4: I do like half calf situation.

261
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 2: You're drinking a fiftieth of the amount of caffeine that

262
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 2: I consume.

263
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 4: This is true. I think that might kill you. Would

264
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,079
Speaker 4: never sleep again if you had another if you had.

265
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 2: No What I'm saying is I like, by one o'clock,

266
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 2: I've had like five hundred milligrams of caffee and then

267
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 2: I wait an hour that I need more, okay, fair,

268
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 2: and then I need my evening caffeine, which can only

269
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 2: come from soda from Dia coke for me, then coffee

270
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 2: after four o'clock.

271
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 3: I'm a nightmare. I drink coffee when I'm board, of course.

272
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 3: Like that's how much caffeine I need.

273
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 2: Do you like a good?

274
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 3: Like?

275
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 2: Are you a coffee snob or just any sort of coffee?

276
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 3: I would say I'm a coffee snob. I like a

277
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:01,439
Speaker 3: latta okay. You know I used to hot hot, preferably.

278

00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm almost strictly a cold coffee person.

281
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 3: You know, when it's frigid. You said you were gay, right.

282
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 2: No, it's my church needs to know. I got why

283
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 2: for children.

284
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 3: I went through an iced coffee phase and then I'm in.

285
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 3: I'm in like a hot drink, fas hot drink. Yeah.

286
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 3: My drink used to be like a dirty chai latte. Okay,

287
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 3: now it's like a vanilla oat milk latte. I went

288
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 3: through a strong coal brew phase. I'm always just a

289
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 3: caffeine to the veins.

290
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 2: That's what's happening, right, here.

291
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just feel like that that really gives me anxiety. Yeah,

292
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 3: oldbrew will get me jittery, which I need to not be.

293
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 2: I mean, that's the problem with my entire life is

294
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 2: just I'm consuming a drug that is not good for

295
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 2: my mental illness, but.

296
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,719
Speaker 3: Uh, but good for your productivity.

297
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, well it's not good for that. If I laid

298
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 2: out my week for you, you would be like, oh, caffeine's

299
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 2: doing nothing.

300
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 3: For Maybe your new drink should be no more drinks.

301
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 2: Oh interesting, becoming parched or you know, water just straight water. Yeah,

302
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm pretty hydrated. Okay, I pride myself

303
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:14,319
Speaker 2: on my hydration. When I'm actually like in a writer's

304
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 2: room or whatever, my hydration is near toxic levels. I'm

305
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 2: drinking so much water I could die.

306
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 3: Why is that?

307
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: Because it's just there. It's like, yeah, I'm going to

308
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 2: be drinking lacroix after it is. But for some reason,

309
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 2: that's a good question. It's actually in my house. It's

310
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 2: even more here.

311
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 3: It's not a water free home.

312
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, actually this is the opposite of a

313
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 2: water free home.

314
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 3: There's a lot of plants around here.

315
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are a lot of plants, really lovely We

316
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 2: won't get into it now because I've talked about it NonStop.

317
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: But the house did flood for months and months, so

318
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: the water.

319
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: Situation should mention that once or three times.

320
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 2: There's a lot of water going on. But maybe my

321
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 2: new drink is drinking more water at home. So your

322
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 2: new drink is getting into your mail situation.

323
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, paying bills?

324
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 2: Are you in an apartment or house apartment? So it's

325
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 2: like piling up in a little metal box.

326
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 3: A little metal box.

327
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, you're frustrating your post person.

328
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 3: I am actually got a note from them because I

329
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 3: was out of town for a while and I always

330
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 3: feel bad asking friends to like do things like check

331
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 3: my mail right while I'm away, and so it just

332
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 3: builds up. And I had a letter, a little note

333
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 3: that was quite angry. Actually I should take a picture,

334
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 3: but it was just like please check your mail.

335
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 2: And it was from the postal service, I.

336
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 3: Would assume, so I don't know who else it would

337
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 3: be from.

338
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 2: Was it on like a stationary or was it post it?

339
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 3: I think it's like a post it note.

340
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 2: Interesting, I mean, I guess the postal person has that authority. Yeah,

341
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 2: you're where else is the mail going to go?

342
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 3: I think it's fair. It's just a problem for them

343
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 3: if I don't.

344
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 2: Now you're you don't like asking a friend to do

345
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 2: anything for you?

346
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: Not anything when it comes to like chore type things.

347
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 3: I just feel really guilty for some reason. I don't

348
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,200
Speaker 3: know what that is. I just like watering plants. I'd

349
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 3: rather have plans die than ask a friend to come

350
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 3: water them, which is so stupid because I have friends

351
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 3: who would. Huh, it's bad. It's bad. There's your friends

352
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 3: want to help you, they do. I don't know what that.

353
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 3: What do you think that says about me that I

354
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 3: don't want to ask for helping them?

355
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 2: I think that What does that say about you? It's

356
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 2: a it's Is it a lack of self worth?

357
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 3: Huh?

358
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 2: You feel like you're not your friends don't care enough?

359
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 2: Is that what's happening? Do you feel like you're a

360
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 2: burden on your friends?

361
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 3: Why are you being mean? Because your friends have.

362
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 2: Been calling Nick? Is draining draining us emotionally?

363
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,920

Speaker 2: I'm confirming the lack of worth, absolute lack of got it.

379
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,959
Speaker 2: I will say truly. Asking for right to the airport

380
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 2: is a huge, huge ask.

381
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:29,440
Speaker 3: Well, this is Burbank.

382
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 2: Now that's a little fun trip.

383
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,240

388
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,080

389
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 2: minute drive, right. I do feel like LA podcasts are

390
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 2: going to ruin the Burbank airport. We're all talking about

391
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: how great it is all the time.

392
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 3: But it's more expensive.

393
00:17:55,600 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so much more expensive wink, I mean more

394
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 2: I you know, I'm in huge debt because I go

395
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 2: out of the Burbank Airport.

396
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 3: That's why my bills are unpaid.

397
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 2: Right, and I get sick every time I go through.

398
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,679
Speaker 2: There are all those dogs at the entrance snapping at you.

399
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 2: So there are some downfalls in your Burbank airport. I mean, look,

400
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 2: Burbank Airport doing favors and conveniencing people. There's something I'd

401
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 2: like to talk to you about.

402
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:26,199
Speaker 3: Okay, what is that.

403
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 2: I was looking forward to having you on the podcast.

404
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,919
Speaker 2: I thought we'll have a nice time. Nickel comes to

405
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 2: the backyard, we'll chat, maybe I'll try to help him

406
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 2: with some sort of with his self esteem, and then

407
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 2: we'll move on. So I was a little surprised when

408
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,840
Speaker 2: you showed up holding a bag. The podcast is called

409
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:51,040

410
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 2: don't know, I'm confused. This bag, for all I can tell,

411
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 2: is a gift for me.

412
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 3: That's right, it is a gift for you. Bridge Interesting.

413
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 3: You've invited me into your home, or at least outside

00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 3: of it.

415
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 2: You will never never enter my home, not after what's

416
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 2: happening right now.

417
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 3: You mean me giving you a present.

418
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 2: The podcast has one rule.

419
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 3: No gifts, no gifts, but it is my love language.

420
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,199
Speaker 2: I don't care. I don't know what what am I

421
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 2: supposed to do with your love language? When it breaks

422
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 2: a word.

423
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 3: Accept it, let me love you?

424
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:26,360
Speaker 1: Well?

00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,160

00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, it's a it's actually a really special present.

428
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 2: to make an exception. Yeah, let's get into it here.

00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 3: I'm going to hand you the bag. It's in a.

00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 2: Beautiful wrap, kind of a brown paper bag, which we love,

431
00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 2: A recycled bag from a local growth, not a national chain.

432
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 3: It's a chain.

433
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 2: It's a chain, but people like this chain. Okay, I'm

434
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: reaching in and grabbing something. Oh, I have actually no idea.

435
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:12,239
Speaker 3: What this is.

436
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 2: It says spoonfuls and then a word that says maquas,

437
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:21,120
Speaker 2: ma muquas and from the cake stop. Is that right?

438
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:25,320

440
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 3: It is a an all natural mouth freshener. Really, you

441
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 3: take like a little handful of palm, pop it in

442
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 3: your mouth after a meal. It's like a palate cleanser.

443
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 3: It's like mint and seeds and nuts.

444
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 2: It's beautiful.

445
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 3: It's quite refreshing.

446
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 2: I will say, like at Indian restaurants they often have

447
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 2: like little are they called? They're like they kind of

448
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 2: look like miniature good and good? What is that candy

449

Speaker 2: It's a little minty. There's nut, I mean, the the

473
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 2: layers of flavor that happen. I wonder, what do you

474
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 2: have any idea what's happening in here? It's like seeds almonds.

475
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:05,399
Speaker 3: There's no ingredient list on it. Certainly mint, mint almonds.

476
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 3: I think maybe cashew, some kind of like dried floral substance.

477
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's lovely.

478
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I heard you had bad breath.

479
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 2: So that's the one thing people know about me. Yeah,

480
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 2: all of my guests they go away from this podcasting.

481
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 2: The man's breath is horrendous.

482
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 3: That's why I moved it from inside to outside.

483
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 2: All right, yes, exactly, we had to get some air.

484
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 2: You went to India over the.

485
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 3: Over the over the winter holidays.

486
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 2: How long were you there for?

487
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 3: Like two ish weeks?

488
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: Two?

489
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 3: And hal?

490
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 2: Is this your first time?

491
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 3: No, I used to go a lot when I was

492
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 3: a kid, but I hadn't been back in about ten years.

493
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 2: Oh wow.

494
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 3: And my boyfriend hadn't been back in like eighteen years.

495
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 3: He's also Indian, okay, and so it was a bit

496
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 3: of a homecoming for both.

497
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 2: It was probably kind of like a first time experiencing

498
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 2: it as an adult.

499
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 3: Ten years ago. I was still an adult.

500
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 2: I guess ten years ago you were about forty eight.

501
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 2: Uh huh so I guess yeah technically.

502
00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 3: But as like a fully it was it's the first

503
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 3: time I've been since been out. Oh so that was

504
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 3: like a new experience definitely, and it was it was

505
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 3: really lovely.

506
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 2: Where did you visit in India?

507
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 3: We started in Goa, which is a beach town in

508
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 3: South India, a lot of Portuguese influence from colonial days.

509
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 2: Colonial days.

510
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,239
Speaker 3: They're not that far behind us, you know, they certainly are.

511
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 3: They actually are ahead of us as well. Then we

512
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 3: went to Jaipur, okay, and then for a wedding, which

513
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 3: was crazy, and then a visiting family Indrat, which is

514
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,640
Speaker 3: where his mom is from and where both my parents

515
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 3: are from. And we're not related. Okay, well I just

516
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:41,440
Speaker 3: want to put that out there.

517
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 2: There's no telling. You never know, you never quite know.

518
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 2: Isn't that true?

519
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 3: I don't think it's true.

520
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 2: Okay, maybe that's not true. Whose wedding wasn't.

521
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 3: Our good friend's sister?

522
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 2: Okay? Okay, Yeah, that was a nice time.

523
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 3: It was lovely.

524
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 2: Indian weddings are a big deal.

525
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 3: They are. I mean they can be. I mean some

526
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 3: Indian weddings are low key affairs. I will say, yeah,

527
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 3: I think the representation of weddings here is like every wedding. No,

528
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 3: I mean, people who are not insanely wealthy don't throw

529
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 3: insanely crazy.

530
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 2: Weddings, right, just like in America? Right. Not everyone's having

531
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 2: a huge affair. No exactly, but yeah, I mean from

532
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 2: my I have I've never been to one, but like

533
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 2: you'll see on Instagram, somebody's in an Indian wedding. I'm like,

534
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 2: somebody invite me. This sounds this actually looks like a

535
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 2: good time. I'll invite invite me to the wedding. Him

536
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 2: invite me and wants to bring you one.

537
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 3: Okay, then you know.

538
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: Are you thinking about getting married anytime soon?

539
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 3: No?

540
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: No? Do you want to get married?

541
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 3: Maybe?

542
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 2: Interesting? How far down the road do you think?

543
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 3: A few years? Few years?

544
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: Yeah?

545
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:49,480
Speaker 3: Are you married?

546
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 2: I'm not married. I have no interest.

547
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 3: How long are even with your eight years person?

548
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 1: Wow?

549
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 2: Years?

550
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 3: So do you want to get married? No? I haven't.

551
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,439
Speaker 2: I just don't. There's nothing there for.

552
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 3: Me, does he he?

553
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 2: I think at one point Wood was excited about the

554
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 2: idea of getting married but I think we're both kind

555
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 2: of on the same page now of like we don't

556
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 2: need that. I mean, I understand why other people like

557
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 2: to do it and that kind of thing. I don't

558
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 2: want to throw any shame on that, but for us,

559
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 2: it's just like, I don't know, I grew up in

560
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 2: a very marriage dominated culture, which is Mormonism, so that

561
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 2: is part of it. I think. Then I don't like,

562
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 2: I don't really like a party in general of any kind,

563
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 2: certainly not a party person. And I don't like filling

564
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 2: out paperwork. So what else is there for me in

565
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 2: a wedding food?

566
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:42,480
Speaker 1: Food?

567
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 3: And you don't really even get to enjoy your own

568
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 3: wedding food as much.

569
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 2: That's whenever I'm at someone's wedding, I'm just like, this

570
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 2: poor person is paying so much money to not experience

571
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 2: any of this.

572
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 3: It's the money part for me. I'm like, I raither

573
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 3: use that money for anything.

574
00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 2: Literally, right, redecorate your home, go on the most extravagant

575
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 2: vacation of all time. Yeah.

576
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 3: But then the other part of me is like the

577
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 3: sappy romantic that wants the whole thing right now.

578
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 2: I go back and forth, how long have you been

579
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:12,440
Speaker 2: with your wife?

580
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 3: A little over two years, almost two and a half.

581
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 2: Okay, so you've got a while before I were the

582
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 2: idea of really married.

583
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a bit older, so it's a more presence

584
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 3: on his mind.

585
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:27,479
Speaker 2: Oh okay, sure, sure, Well hi babe, So what did

586
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 2: you do while you were in India? How long were

587
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 2: you there?

588
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 3: Like two weeks?

589
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 2: Two weeks? What were some highlights for you?

590
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 3: I mean the best part for your visiting family. I

591
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 3: got to see a lot of my cousin's kids, who,

592
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 3: at last I saw him, were very little and tiny

593
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 3: and fully teenagers with personalities and opinions and talents, and

594
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 3: oh that's lovely.

595
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

596
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 3: And I got to see my two remaining grandparents, oh,

597
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 3: which was really lovely. Definitely the highlights and the food.

598
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,440
Speaker 3: The food, I mean, I sound like a white girl.

599
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,880
Speaker 3: Food was so good. That people are so spiritual, obviously

600
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 3: the nicest people you've ever met, my god, But like

601
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 3: my stomach just was so upset. But gosh, I'd like

602
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: to go back.

603
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 2: Everywhere has good food to say. The food was so great.

604
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 2: It's like, of course that's true.

605
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 3: I mean that true.

606
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 2: What where is food not good?

607
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 3: Well?

608
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 2: Actually we probably shouldn't. I feel like We're gonna make

609
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 2: somebody mad if we say, like the food in Arizona,

610
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 2: for example.

611
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 3: But well that's just false. Arizona food is great because

612
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 3: it's a lot of Mexican.

613
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 2: Food, right exactly. Yeah, I really feel like Ireland. Ireland's

614
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,439
Speaker 2: got to have something on the menu. I'm sure they have.

615
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 2: I mean the potatoes, potatoes. I feel like they've got

616
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 2: good cheese there. I imagine, like the dairy element is

617
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 2: good in Ireland, the whole, the whole of the UK does.

618
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 2: I guess it's kind of famously bad.

619
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 3: Food or like it's just not as exciting, not as

620
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 3: exciting as it's not as layered. But like if you

621
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 3: which is wild considering the lengths they went to get

622
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 3: spices from.

623
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 2: Us, right, they kind of conquered the entire world and

624
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 2: took everything but the food, which is an interesting It's

625
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 2: not how I would have done, but you know, to

626
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 2: each his own, and the British Empire kind of dropped

627
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 2: the ball with food.

628
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,400
Speaker 3: Although I will say like Indian food in the UK

629
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,400
Speaker 3: is fucking ope, it's fantastic. I mean chicken ticka massala

630
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 3: was invented there.

631
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 2: Oh that's right, What a bizarre turn of events. Because

632
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 2: that's kind of as far like, it's one of the

633
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 2: most famous Indian foods here in the United.

634
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 3: States at least.

635
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wonder is it in other countries? Do they think?

636
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 3: I think chicken ticka massala is now a global enough.

637
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 2: You can you get it in India?

638
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 3: Yeah? Interesting?

639
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, the closest I've had to I think great

640
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 2: Indian food was in England.

641
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: Yeah.

642
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 2: I had Indian breakfast there. Oh, fantastic breakfast is great, phenomenal. Okay,

643
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 2: so you're eating, you're seeing family.

644
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, friends, the wedding was lovely.

645
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 2: You went to the beach, went to the beach. Are

646
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 2: you a big beach person.

647
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 3: I'm not a huge beach person. I enjoyed in theory

648
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 3: a lot in theory, right, mildly. In real life. What

649
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 3: are you doing at the beach, I'm usually just sitting.

650
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 2: You're reading.

651
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 3: I'm usually reading or listening to an audiobook or music.

652
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:20,719
Speaker 2: Okay.

653
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 3: Worried about a sunburn, not so much. You. I'll put

654
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 3: on some sunscreen. I got melanin.

655
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 2: I'm constantly panting.

656
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, you're at risk.

657
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 2: I mean it's completely cloudy and recovered by another thing,

658
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 2: and I still could get sunburned right now, Yeah, I'm

659
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 2: going to go inside and just be burnt to death.

660
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 2: But that is one thing. Even if I'm covered in

661
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 2: sunscreen at the beach, still in the back of my mind,

662
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 2: am I getting skin cancer?

663
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 3: It's real? It's real. Plus I guess it's it's like

664
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 3: a lot of people, usually.

665
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 2: A lot of people. Do you like getting in the water,

666
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 2: like my up to my knees, up to your knees, okay, yeah,

667
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 2: beyond that, I start getting scared right of dying. I

668
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 2: feel like I can get maybe chest level okay, impressive

669
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 2: once we're over the shoulders at the beach, you're scared

670
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 2: of dying. I'm scared of getting caught up in some

671
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 2: sort of whirlpool or the undertoe.

672
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 3: And then of course the creatures. Right, that's a different

673
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,480
Speaker 3: that's a whole station thing happening. Yeah.

674
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 2: I think I stepped on a fish in the ocean

675
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 2: once and had a panic attack.

676
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 3: On a fish that's wild. Maybe it was an eel

677
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 3: you stepped on it, or like you kicked it.

678
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 2: I feel like I was starved on it.

679
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 3: The floor under was like the seafloor.

680
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 2: Well, it was sitting in a chair. Oh god, I

681
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 2: don't know. I just remember stepping on something that was

682
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 2: slimy and uh muscular or whatever, muscular to the point

683
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 2: that it was moving that it was clearly a living being.

684
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 3: Could have been seaweed, muscular seaweed. It could have been

685
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 3: a clump of seaweed.

686
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 2: That wanted to escape from underneath my feet.

687
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 3: There's research that shows that plants scream. Wait, is that true? Yes?

688
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 3: It just it just got confirmed.

689
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 2: I honestly, I don't know if you're a kidding or not.

690
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 3: No, No, I mean, I hope I'm not spreading misinformation.

691
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 3: But I'm pretty sure this is a real scientific style

692
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 3: that just got some attention in the news. They scream

693
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 3: like when cut, they scream when they're thirsty. Oh interesting,

694
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 3: and I think they scream when they're under threat.

695
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 2: But like at a frequency none of us can hear correct,

696
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 2: can dogs hear it?

697
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 3: I don't know.

698
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 2: Interesting, I need to look into this. You could be

699
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 2: really spreading something here that's absolutely false.

700
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 3: I mean, even if this is completely false.

701
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 2: Is reaching for the mic.

702
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 3: It's true. It's true, Thank you, Analise. It's true. Now,

703
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 3: I've never I've never been more terrified to kill.

704
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 2: We're surrounded by plants right now that could all be

705
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 2: screaming plants. Welcome to the podcast. Wow, that's fascinating. I

706
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 2: wonder where did that idea come from to even begin

707
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 2: researching that shrooms?

708
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 3: Probably that's really true.

709
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, somebody was ebbs the tripping out of their mind, heard.

710
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 3: A plant uh huh, and thought I gotta go to

711
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 3: the lab.

712
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 2: Wow, I wonder what frequency that is? I want to

713
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 2: get a plant whistle huh.

714
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 3: I've seen those things where you like put like electrodes

715
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 3: on a plant and I'll transform the electrical current from

716
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 3: the plant into music. What, yeah?

717
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 2: Is that us like to record? Like? Do bands use that?

718
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 2: Do musical artists use that?

719
00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 3: I know who uses it? I'm sure the guy on

720
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 3: TikTok that I saw post about it is using it.

721
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 3: But beyond that practical muse, I'm not sure.

722
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 2: Interesting people are finding ways to mistreat plants all over

723
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 2: the planet.

724
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 3: Why is it mistreating? We're just giving them a microphone,

725
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 3: giving them a voice.

726
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 2: I feel like it's it's like a stage mom to

727
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,560
Speaker 2: a plant. The plant didn't ask to be on stage.

728
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 2: Suddenly it's all over TikTok and it didn't say it

729
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 2: wanted to be on TikTok.

730
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 3: That's true. It didn't sign a release.

731
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 2: Did not sign a release? Are you on are do

732
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,160
Speaker 2: you post to TikTok?

733
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 3: No? I just watch? Okay, Yeah, I don't.

734
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 2: Know that I've ever met somebody that actively posts to

735
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 2: TikTok Like.

736
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 3: We might be a little bit old for that.

737
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,479
Speaker 2: That's yeah, that's probably true. I'm seventy five, like no

738
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 2: one in my and I know a lot of performers

739
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 2: and this sort of thing. Maybe that's because the performers

740
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,000
Speaker 2: I know are already doing it professionally.

741
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 3: Are you saying TikTok is not a professional endeavor? Are

742
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 3: you saying TikTokers and creators? I'm not.

743
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 2: Do not put me in this place.

744
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 3: The creator economy is. I love the backbone of our

745
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 3: imagination culture people.

746
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 2: I am in full support of TikTokers and whatever content

747
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 2: they want to create. I support them. Do you know

748
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 2: what happened to me recently? I was looking through the

749
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 2: Instagram recommended to you or whatever. I don't know if

750
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 2: I've even I may have talked about this on the

751
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 2: podcast already, and if I did, I apologize to the listener.

752
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 2: There was some disgusting recipe happening okay, but like in

753
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 2: one of the little things that I was like, what's

754
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 2: happening there? I click on it and it was this

755
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 2: woman that was just literally like putting ten eggs in

756
00:33:57,440 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 2: a bowl and then melting chocolate into it, oh, stirring

757
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 2: it all up in a blender, and then baking it.

758
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 2: It's just like, this is what's happening. And now everything

759
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,680
Speaker 2: is suggested to me is a disgusting recipe and I

760
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 2: can't stop looking at disgusting recipe.

761
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 3: Oh, I got you.

762
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 2: I love it now. It's crazy.

763
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, that's how people get indoctrinated.

764
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is kind of my red pill moment.

765
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: It is, it really is.

766
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,759
Speaker 2: I mean, the algorithm finds some little tick into your

767
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 2: personality and then these disgusting recipes. These people obviously are

768
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 2: doing something wild, and they're probably doing other wild things probably,

769
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 2: and I'm going to slowly head down that path.

770
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 3: But soon you're going to be doing it as well.

771
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course I will be putting a lot of

772
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 2: eggs and bowls. And then I'm telling you most of

773
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 2: these recipes involved just like eggs and ingredient.

774
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,640
Speaker 3: It's so bizarre, that's so strange. And these are all

775
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 3: from different people or is it people?

776
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 2: It's like an entire it's like a genre. I would

777
00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 2: say more than a genre.

778
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 3: It's a cold it's a culture of people culture.

779
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 2: Wow, it's I don't I guess it's people who are

780
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 2: looking for like protein heavy.

781
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:10,440
Speaker 3: Foods, interesting egg people.

00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 3: most incredible original ballads and just watching them belt. It

790
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 3: really is is a very strange.

791
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 2: That doesn't seem that strange.

792
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 3: And then there's a handful of like OnlyFans people that

793
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 3: have tiktoks okay and I don't have only fans, but

794
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 3: I do follow them on TikTok and I feel like

795
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 3: it's close.

796
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 2: What's the pipeline there is a TikTok to only fans

797
00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 2: or only fans to TikTok.

798
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,239
Speaker 3: I think it's talk to only fans. I think they

799
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 3: used the market there right here, I am come pay

800
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 3: for me. Well, I definitely went and like look them

801
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 3: up on olyfans right out of my budget?

802
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 2: Right?

803
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:08,839
Speaker 3: Yeah?

804
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 2: AI News, Yeah are you into AI all of this?

805
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,720
Speaker 3: I'm fascinated by it. I use chat GPT.

806
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 2: What do you use it for?

807
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 3: I use it to help me write interesting how so?

808
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 3: And I don't really mean any creative sense. I mean

809
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 3: it more of like I write a lot of email.

810
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 3: We all write a lot of emails, right, and like

811
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 3: sometimes I don't want to actually write the email, right.

812
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 3: And I have found that if I just say like, hey,

813
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 3: I need to tell this person this, and these are

814
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 3: the bullet points, please make this sound professional and kind,

815
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 3: it'll draft a thing.

816
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 2: Somebody was just telling me about this. They broke was

817
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 2: on this podcast that they broke up with their therapists

818
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 2: this way. Yeah, they said, I need to break up

819
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:49,720
Speaker 2: with them write the email.

820
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. I considered when I when I was looking at

821
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 3: a six dollars unpaid collections bill, I was like, am

822
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 3: I going to dispute this? And if I do, I'll

823
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 3: use chat GPT to do it. But that was just

824
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:01,879
Speaker 3: so much work and I just paid it.

825
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,960
Speaker 2: Wow, But that's great, my lawyer chat GPT that's not

826
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 2: a bad idea to defend yourself.

827
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 3: I'll also use it as like a thesaurus for phrases,

828
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 3: so like, Okay, I have a sentence that I've written.

829
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 3: It's clunky, it gets the message across, but it's just

830
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 3: it's not there. And I'll be like, hey, here's a

831
00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 3: sentence I wrote, can you give me five halts interest?

832
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 3: And then like no one result is perfect, but little

833
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 3: bits and pieces, right, So it's not like it's replacing

834
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 3: shit yet, at least in the way I'm using it,

835
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 3: but it's definitely helping.

836
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 2: It's just streaminglining what you actually want to do.

837
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 3: I also use it for like feedback on a thing

838
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 3: I wrote. I wrote a thing okay, and I pasted

839
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,759
Speaker 3: it in chat GPT and said, act as if you

840
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 3: are this type of person, please provide a critical analysis

841
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 3: of what I just wrote. And it gave me like

842
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 3: a really great set of notes both positive and negative.

843
00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 2: Wow, I know that's amazing. Yeah, I need to see

844
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 2: I need to find my use for it. I feel

845
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 2: like all of mine has just been like absolutely worthless.

846
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 2: Just toying with it.

847
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 3: There's a lot you could do. It's pretty I mean,

848
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 3: what's like what's like a mundane ish writing based task

849
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 3: that you have to do on a regular.

850
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 2: Basis send emails. But I mean most my emails are

851
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 2: four to five letters long with no punctuation on a

852
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 2: These can probably attest to very lazily written.

853
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 3: And that's white privilege.

854
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 2: That's uh, that's just I guess that is white. Let's

855
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 2: be honest. I'm sorry.

856
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,359
Speaker 4: I know that I should not be weighing in here,

857
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:40,319
Speaker 4: but you need to start putting titles in your like,

858
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 4: there need to be subjects.

859
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 3: No subject.

860
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 2: You don't subject This is ridiculous. Subject lines have got

861
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 2: to go away. No any no one uses you.

862
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 3: Never find anything, Bridger, I'm constant.

863
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 4: I have to like respond to your emails to myself

864
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 4: with keywords so I can find them later.

865
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 3: You get that's late that you are not getting paid

866
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 3: for You.

867
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 2: Both use subject lines. I don't know anyone that uses

868
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:05,720
Speaker 2: a subject line?

869
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 3: Do you know anyone?

870
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 2: The only people who use subject lines are banks, uber eats,

871
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 2: and retailers who are trying to get me into a sale.

872
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,280
Speaker 2: I don't know anyone else that uses a subject line.

873
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 3: So when you when you're in a writer's room and

874
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 3: an email is sent, no subject line, ever never is

875
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 3: that true? Yeah, one hundred percent true.

876
00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:29,240
Speaker 2: Interesting.

877
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 3: How much of how much of the back and forth

878
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 3: in a room is over email?

879
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 2: There's a decent amount. I mean, I guess it depends

880
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 2: on the job. But I really know, I'm really wondering,

881
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 2: like production emails for shows or whatever, and those are

882
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 2: getting sent out, those will have sure subject lines. I

883
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: mean among the writers interpersonally, no subject Huh. It's almost

884
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 2: like so fascinating.

885
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's interesting that both of you have come

886
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 3: at me almost attacked. Yeah, we just met. But I

887
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,359
Speaker 3: mean I feel like I support you.

888
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 2: But my thing is subject line feels like it is

889
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 2: almost more important than the email itself. I would I

890
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 2: think I would spin out thinking of what should the

891
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 2: subject line be?

892
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 3: Subject line is just what it's about.

893
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 2: But what it's about is right there in the email.

894
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:13,360
Speaker 3: I feel like we could talk ourselves into a circle

895
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 3: about this.

896
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 2: Wow, this is interesting.

897
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess you're right because if you don't

898
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 3: have a subject line, it just shows you the preview

899
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,120
Speaker 3: text of the email immediately.

900
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 2: I have not used a subject line probably in fifteen years.

901
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 3: I'm glad that you do the emails for this podcast

902
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 3: on at least because I would have probably said no

903
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 3: if I got a no subject line invitation, Hey do

904
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 3: you want to come to this guy's backyard.

905
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 2: But what we're talking about with an alas emailing you,

906
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:45,359
Speaker 2: that's professional, that's I'm talking about a professional context here.

907
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 2: I guess I'm not a professional person. I'm not a

908
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 2: serious saying.

909
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:51,759
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it's unprofessional. I find I mean, I

910
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 3: find it interesting. I'm weirdly nerd out about this kind

911
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 3: of thing, because, like, we spend so much time emailing, texting, right,

912
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 3: dming all that crap, and the way people do it

913
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 3: differently is so interesting to me.

914
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 2: This is what I'll say. If I email you and

915
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 2: I'm using periods and I'm capitalizing the beginning of a sentence,

916
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 2: that's because I'm not comfortable with you, or I'm not

917
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 2: like I don't feel that familiar with Sure. Sure, when

918
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 2: it feels like the worst written email of all time,

919
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,760
Speaker 2: no period at the end, it's all lowercase, that's because

920
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 2: I you're in my life.

921
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 3: Okay, it's a love language yes type thing.

922
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 2: Yes, it's a love language thing, with the exception of

923
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 2: if I think that the person has bad grammar, I

924
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:36,839
Speaker 2: will go out of my way to use all of

925
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,720
Speaker 2: the proper grammar, because I'm like, this person needs needs

926
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 2: an example in their life.

927
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 3: You know, I was really like on your side until

928
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 3: you decided to be a grammar queen. It may be

929
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 3: so leis fair. No subject lines and you care about grammar.

930
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 3: The subject line has got to do. I either care

931
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 3: about it all or none of it. There's no middle ground. No,

932
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 3: does not exist anymore.

933
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 2: It is absolutely a spectrum and grammar and subject lines

934
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 2: are a spectrum.

935
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is the woke agenda. This is this is not.

936
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,600
Speaker 2: Get woke, go bro. Yeah, that's that's what this podcast

937
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 2: is all about. Hard right wing podcast. Interesting. I wonder

938
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 2: what the I bet listeners are going to freak out

939
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 2: about this. They're going to be people come down hard

940
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:24,439
Speaker 2: on this sort of thing.

941
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,760
Speaker 3: And I'm do you use your calendar?

942
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 2: Yes?

943
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 3: Do you send the calendar invites to people? No? Interesting?

944
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 3: What are you sending calendar invites for meetings? Calls?

945
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 2: Okay? So events those sort of things on lease will

946

Speaker 2: send for me? Oh right, okay, but like do you

947
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:43,879
Speaker 2: do it for dinners? That sort of thing?

948
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:47,440
Speaker 3: Not like not personal like friends? Okay, now with friends okay,

949
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 3: work wise, Okay, I think I work with a lot

950
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 3: of people who are disorganized. Okay, no collaborators that might

951
00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 3: be listening, right, there's a lot of just like disorganization,

952
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 3: and I sometimes I think I have to like put

953
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 3: it on their calendar so they don't forget it.

954
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 2: So this is sort of like me with grammar, where

955
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,720
Speaker 2: I'm like, this person's grammar's bad. I need them to

956
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 2: just have a little guiding light.

957
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 3: It's already on my calendar. Adding their name is not

958
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:19,239
Speaker 3: a big deal.

959
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 2: I now that we're talking about this, I will say

960
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 2: that I think just in general, getting in touch with

961
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 2: me or being in touch with me for everyone in

962
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 2: my life is an absolute nightmare.

963
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 3: Huh.

964
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,360
Speaker 2: My phone is always on do not Disturb, so it

965
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 2: almost always goes to.

966
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,239
Speaker 3: Voice that that's legendary status.

967
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 2: It feels great.

968
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 3: It feels so good. I went the whole day when

969
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 3: I'm when I really don't want to bother to turn on.

970
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 3: But the other day I went a full day from

971
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,239
Speaker 3: morning to night with it on, doing undisturbed, and I

972
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:51,360
Speaker 3: felt like a god, You're truly a king. Yeah, you're amazing.

973
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 3: I felt so good.

974
00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 2: It's amazing. Right, It's like no one can bother you. You

975
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 2: are just that you get to make all of the

976
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 2: literally the calls. It's great. You hop on there, the

977
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,319
Speaker 2: texts have come in, You're like, now I get to

978
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 2: answer them. I'm not getting bothered over and over and over.

979
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 2: I feel like it almost feels like a landline. I

980
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 2: feel like this is probably as close to a landline

981
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 2: as we're.

982
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:12,840
Speaker 3: Going to get them. That's nice.

983
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 2: It's like you can only be bothered in certain scenarios.

984
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:17,360
Speaker 3: I'm kind of miss having a landline.

985
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:19,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's been a long time since I

986
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 2: had a landline. Yeah, maybe I'll get one. The cable

987
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,240
Speaker 2: company is always trying to get me to get a landline.

988
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 3: Which is strange.

989
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,879
Speaker 2: Just stop doing it right now, people have it, people

990
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,360
Speaker 2: have it? Who offices and offices?

991
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 3: Parents, offices and parents. That's a big portion of the population.

992
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,279
Speaker 3: That's true, offices and parents, but that actually might be

993
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 3: the majority of the human population. Offices in parents, offices

994
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 3: are people too? Yeah, corporations.

995
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:50,800
Speaker 2: That's thank you, Mett Romney.

996
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

997
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 2: Interesting, Well we've I mean, this has become a really

998
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,760
Speaker 2: contentious podcast all because of my failings as a person.

999
00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 2: I I agree, and we barely talked.

1000
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 3: About the macass.

1001
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 2: What else should we talk about with this, Is there

1002
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 2: anything else to say?

1003
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,800
Speaker 3: It's delicious, It's delicious. People should try it.

1004
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 2: It's a maquas. Does that mean anything?

1005
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 3: Do you know?

1006
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 1: Yes?

1007
00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 2: Or do I just mean like literally what this is?

1008
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,240
Speaker 3: You know I should know that and I don't. Okay,

1009
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 3: but I'm willing to admit my ignorance.

1010
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 2: And was this literally purchased in India?

1011
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:26,880
Speaker 3: There was a gift from family to me.

1012
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 2: That is incredible to you? Oh yeah, and they've got

1013
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,800

1014
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 2: to have that. I wonder how long it lasts, like

1015
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 2: expiration wise.

1016
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 3: I think a while. Okay, yeah, I think a while.

1017
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 3: Very interesting. I think nuts really, seeds don't go bad?

1018
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 3: Do they do? Nuts go bad?

1019
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 2: Do they scream? There are a lot of questions about

1020
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 2: nuts and seeds, But we bring up these questions of

1021
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:57,240
Speaker 2: the scientific community, research them, right. I can't do everything?

1022
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, all we can do is feed, wonder and dream.

1023
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 3: I regret saying that sentence. I'm really happy you spoke

1024
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 3: over me there.

1025
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:09,399

00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 2: is the game. We haven't played in a long time,

1034
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,439

1042
00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:55,080
Speaker 3: Last night I watched the pilot to Beef on Netflix.

1043
00:46:55,600 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 3: It's incredible. There's a really great Indian rest in La

1044
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 3: called Pisia Palace. It's Indian Italian food.

1045
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,839
Speaker 2: Pisia Palace is so good and so hard to get into.

1046
00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 3: It is it is it is.

1047
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 2: I not to brag. Went there before it became a

1048
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 2: phenomenon and we just walked in. No longer a possibility. No,

1049
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 2: but anyone that comes to La should go there.

1050
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 3: Indian Italian is like a marriage that I'm surprised has not.

1051
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:25,680
Speaker 3: It's perfect. Yeah, it's perfect.

1052
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 2: And also, fusion is not an easy thing to do

1053
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 2: often bad. Yeah, it's a and it's such a fun

1054
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 2: place to be and beef. I watched the pilot recently

1055
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,279
Speaker 2: and really liked it. I will say the last song

1056
00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 2: they play in the episode, I was confused, confused. It's like,

1057
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 2: what is that song? The reason is that what it's called?

1058
00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:48,879
Speaker 3: I think so hubis tancre horrible piece of music. Oh wow,

1059
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 3: I was. I felt a nice rush of nostalgia.

1060
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 2: Interesting, Yeah, I felt what's the opposite of nostalgia?

1061
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 3: Hate? We need a word for sorrow?

1062
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:00,800
Speaker 2: Yes, it's trauma.

1063
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 3: Trauma is trauma the opposite of nostalgia. I guess if

1064
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,439
Speaker 3: it's something that triggers a feeling from your past. Yeah,

1065
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 3: if it's positive, it's nostalgia. If it's negative, it's trauma. Interesting.

1066
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 2: Interesting, I think we did just discover something.

1067
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:13,879
Speaker 3: But the show was.

1068
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:15,879

Speaker 2: Okay, this is how we're gonna play the game. And

1071
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:20,839

Speaker 3: What do you think I'm gonna give Lester the ability

1101
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,759
Speaker 3: to wow crowd because of this group. I'm not saying

1102
00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 3: he can't, but like of the group, Daniel d Lewis

1103
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,960
Speaker 3: and lnnaz ol Ray have that kind of down that's true,

1104
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,759
Speaker 3: you know, very true, and so just by process of elimination,

1105
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,359
Speaker 3: right to give that to Leicester? Okay, very nice. I'm

1106
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,920
Speaker 3: gonna give the eye pod photo to Daniel Day Lewis

1107
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:04,879
Speaker 3: because I think he could use a little more joy

1108
00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:06,960
Speaker 3: in his life, and I think we can load it

1109
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:07,879
Speaker 3: with some pretty.

1110
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,360
Speaker 2: Pictures, no music, strictly photos.

1111
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,240
Speaker 3: You said iPod photo, right.

1112
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 2: Well, the photo thing was kind of a weird addition

1113
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 2: to It's like why there is a very small screen

1114
00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,759
Speaker 2: to look at photos looking back? Didn't make sense as

1115
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:26,359
Speaker 2: a product. But Daniel Day might enjoy it.

1116
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,880
Speaker 3: I think he would. I think he'd be confused and

1117
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:31,359
Speaker 3: then he'd learn about it, and I'd want to watch

1118
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 3: that whole process, Okay, I think. And then I guess

1119
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 3: my kidney going to Lana del Ray, which, honestly, if

1120
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,399
Speaker 3: she writes a song about it, or actually please an album,

1121
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 3: give me an album and we're set. Oh, I would

1122
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 3: love to listen to that album.

1123
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:48,840
Speaker 2: Can we talk about Lana del Rey for a moment? Sure,

1124
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 2: I would love to understand. I feel like every other

1125
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:59,439
Speaker 2: person on the planet now understands Lana del Rey, understands what.

1126
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 2: They love it, They're into it. Her spell is over them.

1127
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, it doesn't hasn't clicked for me, and

1128
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:08,920
Speaker 2: I feel like it should click.

1129
00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 3: Well, what is it like?

1130
00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:12,839
Speaker 2: What about Lana is for you?

1131
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 3: She's able to tap into an emotional state that I

1132
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:23,280
Speaker 3: can only describe as existential, gay and hopeless.

1133
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 2: And what are you listening to her while you're driving?

1134
00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:29,400
Speaker 2: Not usually around the house?

1135
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 3: Yeah? I listened during the shower okay?

1136
00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 2: Oh interesting?

1137
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,799
Speaker 3: Or around the house when I'm feeling moody okay? So

1138
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:43,360
Speaker 3: how often are you feeling moody? Often very emotional person.

1139
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:46,560
Speaker 2: Now the shower thing makes sense to me. Maybe that's

1140
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 2: where I need to get Lana going. You may not

1141
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 2: just you just may not be the It feels like

1142
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:52,680
Speaker 2: she's for everybody.

1143
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 3: Would you describe yourself as hopeless? Hopeless? Sure?

1144
00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:57,400
Speaker 2: Gay?

1145
00:51:57,920 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 4: Gay?

1146
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:01,360
Speaker 2: That's obviously in the air, and by the end of

1147
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 2: this podcast, I might be comfortable enough.

1148
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 3: To come on. That was the third word that I just.

1149
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:08,719
Speaker 2: Said, Moody, that's the hopeless existential?

1150
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 3: Is that what I said? Okay, yeah, Jesus Christ, yeah.

1151
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:15,760
Speaker 2: I would say all of those things. I'm constantly wondering,

1152
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:17,960
Speaker 2: what is my purpose? What is the world, what is

1153
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:19,880
Speaker 2: the universe? What is reality?

1154
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,359
Speaker 3: I think I think the ingredients are there for you

1155
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:24,280
Speaker 3: to be into Lana.

1156
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 2: I think it's maybe it's because it's all slow.

1157
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:28,760
Speaker 3: You're not into the slow.

1158
00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:32,320
Speaker 2: I like slow music, but I need, come on, put

1159
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,840
Speaker 2: one fun song on the album.

1160
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 3: Well why don't you put her on like a playlist

1161
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 3: mixed with fast songs and that way you're getting all right.

1162
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 3: I'm just trying to help.

1163
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:51,359
Speaker 2: Immediately, I apologize to you and Lanna. I'm going to try.

1164
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,279
Speaker 2: I'm going to try for Lana's sake and for mine,

1165
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:56,640
Speaker 2: because she obviously I mean. The problem now is she

1166
00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 2: has an enormous catalog. Seems like she has a new

1167
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:01,360
Speaker 2: album every six months.

1168
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 3: I don't actually know. I listened to more of her,

1169
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:07,040
Speaker 3: like old stuff, older stuff like ten years ago.

1170
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:11,400
Speaker 2: Ribes she's been around for quite a while now. Shower, though,

1171
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 2: that's the shower is my place for music. I'm uncertain

1172
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 2: about to or like, I need to give this a try,

1173
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 2: because you know it can just be on in the background. Right, Okay, Lona,

1174
00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 2: I'm coming for you, and there's a kidney on its way,

1175
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 2: and also Nick's kidney. You can keep it in the

1176
00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:31,359
Speaker 2: fridge until you actually need it. Excellently played, I mean,

1177
00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 2: kind of just knew exactly what needed to happen almost immediately. Wait,

1178
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:40,760
Speaker 2: you want a curveball, you want another? A cursed watch

1179
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:43,800
Speaker 2: and Gene Simmons.

1180
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 3: Oh wait, I guess we're giving Gene Simmons a cursed.

1181
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:52,120
Speaker 2: Watch, which makes perfect sense.

1182
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:53,880
Speaker 3: I love the idea of a cursed watch.

1183
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:58,360
Speaker 2: I know on the wrist of the lead singer of Kiss.

1184
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,120
Speaker 2: Was he the lead singer? I'm always confused about the

1185
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 2: members of Kiss and what they do.

1186
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,360
Speaker 3: I'm not well versed in white Kiss averse.

1187
00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 2: Just some older men in makeup at this point, kind

1188
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:14,560
Speaker 2: of dramatic makeup.

1189
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:15,800
Speaker 3: And they're all still alive.

1190
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:17,680
Speaker 2: They're all of Kiss, as far as I know, is

1191
00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:20,920
Speaker 2: still alive by some luck, because they seem like they

1192
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 2: should probably all be dead at this point. They all

1193
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 2: seem like giant perverts to me.

1194
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,720
Speaker 3: Huh, Again, I'm not well versed in white culture.

1195
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,440
Speaker 2: I don't think kisses kisses its own thing. I'm not

1196
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:39,600
Speaker 2: claiming claim it fair not my culture. Okay, well, that

1197
00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 2: wasn't a curve ball. I obviously don't understand what a

1198
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:42,239
Speaker 2: curve ball is.

1199
00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 3: It's okay, I'm just going to be thinking about cursed

1200
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:45,279
Speaker 3: watches for the rest of the day.

1201
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 2: It's all take a minute to think about a cursed watch,

1202
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:49,880
Speaker 2: about who you'd give it to, Yeah, and who you

1203
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 2: would give it to in your life. Yeah. It's the

1204
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,439
Speaker 2: last segment of the podcasts. Okay, it's called I said

1205
00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 2: no emails. People are writing into I said no gifts

1206
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:03,359
Speaker 2: at gmail dot com my listeners. I mean it's they're

1207
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 2: famously bad at life. They're having trouble with all kinds

1208
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 2: of things, mostly gift related, but they write in they

1209
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,920
Speaker 2: ask for help. Will you hope me answer a question?

1210
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 3: I would love to?

1211
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:15,800
Speaker 2: Okay, let me read here. This says, dear Bridger and

1212
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 2: disrespectful guest.

1213
00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 3: That's you.

1214
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,759
Speaker 2: I think I have a unique one for you. I'll

1215
00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 2: be the oh, and then it says you'll be the judge. Well,

1216
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 2: I will be the judge. I was laid off last

1217
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:29,320
Speaker 2: year and settled rather uncomfortably into freelance work and furniture design.

1218
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,520
Speaker 2: In fact, I hate working freelance and I am genuinely

1219
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:35,879
Speaker 2: bad at it, but the rent must get paid. It's

1220
00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 2: damn near impossible in my city to get a job

1221
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,360
Speaker 2: in the design world without having an inside contact to

1222
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:45,719
Speaker 2: grease the wheels. However, an old colleague sent me a

1223
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:48,680
Speaker 2: link to a post she saw, and lo and behold,

1224
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,920
Speaker 2: I ended up getting that job.

1225
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:51,960
Speaker 3: Okay, good for you.

1226
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:57,399
Speaker 2: While this colleague friend didn't recommend me internally, she both

1227
00:55:57,440 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 2: recommended the job to me and also was a profest

1228
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 2: reference during the interview process. I'd love to send her

1229
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 2: something thoughtful that's not a candle or booze too predictable,

1230
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 2: somewhere in the fifty to seventy five dollars range. Could

1231
00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:14,200
Speaker 2: you please help me think of an original gift. I

1232
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:16,439
Speaker 2: don't really know what she's intwo in her free time,

1233
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:20,560
Speaker 2: but she's a badass construction project manager and puts up

1234
00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,880
Speaker 2: with a lot of bullshit. Interesting. Please help, Thank you

1235
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 2: in advance, all the best, Rebecca. Can I ask you

1236
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:30,759
Speaker 2: a question just off the top here, Yeah, seventy five

1237
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,880
Speaker 2: dollars gift should never be given to anyone right.

1238
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:35,399
Speaker 3: As in that's too high or too low.

1239
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 2: It's either a fifty dollars gift or one hundred dollars gift.

1240
00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,319
Speaker 2: A seventy five dollars gift is very strange to.

1241
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 3: Me, aren't we all on a spectrum?

1242
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:48,000
Speaker 2: Not that you get just sad Bridger except in gifts.

1243
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:50,600
Speaker 2: Seventy five dollars is a weird territory.

1244
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:52,719
Speaker 3: It is kind of weird. I would say, like one

1245
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 3: hundred is yeah, you're right, you're you know what?

1246
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:56,359
Speaker 1: Thank you?

1247
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 2: Finally, finally, it is like one thing about me.

1248
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:05,960
Speaker 3: I didn't say at all. The first idea that pops

1249
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,920
Speaker 3: into my mind. Since you work in furniture design, dear friend,

1250
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 3: what's their name?

1251
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 2: Rebecca?

1252
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:15,359
Speaker 3: Rebecca? What if you got this person a miniature of
