0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 3>so far. I did spray myself with the hose. I'm

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.920
<v Speaker 3>drying off mostly. Oh and there's even a bird that's

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:07.479
<v Speaker 3>just immediately getting in on the show, which I love.

0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:09.679
<v Speaker 3>We've got a lot of business. We have a lot

0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:12.679
<v Speaker 3>of business up top here. Of course. The New York Show,

0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:16.440
<v Speaker 3>which we announced last week, continues to be in the future.

0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:20.520
<v Speaker 3>October thirteenth. It's a Sunday night. You've got to be there.

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:24.399
<v Speaker 3>It's at the Bellhouse, the Bellhouse ny dot com. I

0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:26.119
<v Speaker 3>don't know what the ticket sales are at this point.

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:27.840
<v Speaker 3>You may already be out of luck. I don't know

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.039
<v Speaker 3>what to say. Just get on it. I mean, the

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:31.760
<v Speaker 3>things we already have in store for this thing, I'm

0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 3>going crazy. It's going to be a ball now. The

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:38.880
<v Speaker 3>other piece of businesses thousands of people have asked me

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 3>to comment on the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and

0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:47.160
<v Speaker 3>I guess I should just get in and give my commentary.

0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 3>And I watched the trailer and it seems like a

0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:54.920
<v Speaker 3>wonderful group of gals with fantastic husbands to boot. I

0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:56.360
<v Speaker 3>don't know what else to say about it. They do

0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 3>all seem to share the same hairdresser. They've got every

0:01:59.280 --> 0:02:02.000
<v Speaker 3>one of them has the same highlights and waves. That

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 3>should be the point of the show, you know, well,

0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 3>this will be a continuing conversation with the Secret Lives

0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:09.680
<v Speaker 3>of Mormon Wives. I think that's what it's called. It's

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 3>on Hulu. Who cares, Let's get into the podcast. I

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:17.560
<v Speaker 3>love today's guest. It's e J Marcus. E J. Welcome

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:19.519
<v Speaker 3>to I said no gifts, Thank you so much. It's

0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:22.600
<v Speaker 3>kind of just had to blow through some information up top. There.

0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:24.720
<v Speaker 3>Have you seen this trailer for the Secret Lives of

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:25.359
<v Speaker 3>Mormon Wives.

0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:27.160
<v Speaker 2>I haven't, but I'm not what it's called.

0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:33.160
<v Speaker 3>I maybe now that it rhymes yeah, like that would

0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:34.240
<v Speaker 3>be an odd title for.

0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Show, well, or an amazing catchy.

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:40.079
<v Speaker 3>On a Liisa's that's the title of the show on

0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 3>Liise has not even looked it up onalise is hanging

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:48.480
<v Speaker 3>by a thread employment wise, Okay, Okay, that's nodding their head. Okay,

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:49.960
<v Speaker 3>it is the secret lives of Mormon wives.

0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 3>These gals we're on TikTok kind of became famous for

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 3>being Mormon wives on TikTok, kind of like these long

0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:00.560
<v Speaker 3>wavy hair.

0:03:00.919 --> 0:03:02.520
<v Speaker 2>With the highlights beautiful.

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 3>And then I guess there was like a scandal they

0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:09.880
<v Speaker 3>were What's what I've learned is called soft swinging with

0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:13.440
<v Speaker 3>each other's usban's, but I'm not entirely clear on what

0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:13.839
<v Speaker 3>that means.

0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:16.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god. Okay, Well, I'm I'm really fascinated by

0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:18.840
<v Speaker 2>all of this, I might say. I mean, I'm I'm

0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 2>kind of interested in the idea of swinging generally, just

0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:24.640
<v Speaker 2>like conceptually, because I think it's like a generational difference.

0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, you know, because it's like, you know, people

0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:29.600
<v Speaker 2>my age and younger they're doing a sort of polyamorous

0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:32.840
<v Speaker 2>thing totally. But I think swinging is very cool actually,

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:35.320
<v Speaker 2>so soft swinging, I'm like, now, what can that?

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:38.520
<v Speaker 3>What does it mean? Does it just mean having a

0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 3>conversation with someone else's husband?

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:44.680
<v Speaker 2>Right, it's like just flirting in the same roomance? Yeah,

0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 2>where there's like palpable sexual a.

0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 3>Wink. Yeah, like a brush against a shoulder.

0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Right, which is kind of the best of all worlds.

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:56.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, of course you get a little and then

0:03:56.640 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 3>you get to fantasize suggestion, right, beautiful. The word swinging,

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:05.720
<v Speaker 3>it just always feels so dated. It feels like such

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:06.760
<v Speaker 3>a seventies thing.

0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 2>But I'm like, bring back swinging parties, Like, are people

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:10.720
<v Speaker 2>doing this?

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:11.240
<v Speaker 1>They must?

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:12.600
<v Speaker 3>I think these Mormon wives.

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, they're leading the charge absolutely front of culture.

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:20.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, got They are choreographic dances and bringing swinging back

0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:24.560
<v Speaker 3>in a huge way in kind of these bland suburban homes.

0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 3>Very beige, okay, all kind of the gray floor.

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:29.919
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, the gray floor.

0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 3>But they're making a career out of it. Who who's

0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:35.720
<v Speaker 3>got a whole? I don't know. It's probably four episodes,

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:36.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:38.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you were asked to comment on it.

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:42.159
<v Speaker 3>A lot of nature because I'm from Utah and a

0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:45.239
<v Speaker 3>lot of listeners have just reached out sending the trailer.

0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 3>What do you think of this?

0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:48.360
<v Speaker 2>Speak on it?

0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:54.200
<v Speaker 3>Please need the final word totally, So that's uh, I'm

0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 3>sure I'll get hooked, you know.

0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I mean I think I will as well.

0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Now it's inevitable.

0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:01.120
<v Speaker 3>Do you watch any reality TV?

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and this is always a surprise to people for

0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 2>some reason. But I am really into The Bachelor. Oh interesting,

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:10.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm in like a really avid like I go to

0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 2>a watch party every week.

0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:12.040
<v Speaker 3>Wow.

0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, And I it's kind of the one. I mean,

0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:20.640
<v Speaker 2>I've dabbled in other like dating reality shows. I was

0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:23.479
<v Speaker 2>big on the Queer Ultimatum. Obviously that was legendary, but

0:05:24.000 --> 0:05:26.839
<v Speaker 2>I the Bachelor is the one that I feel like

0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:31.479
<v Speaker 2>most invested, like culturally and just because I think it's like,

0:05:32.240 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 2>I think it's so fascinating.

0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:36.120
<v Speaker 3>How do you have never watched a full episode?

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:38.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean and and fair like.

0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:41.800
<v Speaker 3>But also not because I feel like an entire culture

0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:43.440
<v Speaker 3>is watching the show.

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:44.040
<v Speaker 1>It is.

0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:48.600
<v Speaker 2>It's what's a Bachelor nation nation the country?

0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:52.760
<v Speaker 3>There is a city state to the Bachelor.

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So I just think it's really interesting the way

0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:59.360
<v Speaker 2>that like it's gamified. There's like a million podcasts that

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:04.320
<v Speaker 2>talk about this, right, right, and that's it gamified. So okay,

0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:06.479
<v Speaker 2>this is something that I've only been privy to in

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 2>the last couple of months because of my you know,

0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:10.960
<v Speaker 2>Bachelor watch parties. The girls are sort of filling me

0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:13.359
<v Speaker 2>in on stuff. The idea is like with the Bachelor,

0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:15.520
<v Speaker 2>So it's like, you know the Bachelor, and then there's

0:06:15.520 --> 0:06:19.320
<v Speaker 2>all these women competing for his love and affection, right supposedly,

0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:21.920
<v Speaker 2>but then if you kind of take it apart, it's

0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.280
<v Speaker 2>like the women are actually the ones that are kind

0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:27.240
<v Speaker 2>of in control because they're playing the game and they're

0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:30.279
<v Speaker 2>manipulating I mean maybe manipulating the strong word, but they're

0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 2>they're like using him to get what they want. Oh,

0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:34.640
<v Speaker 2>like the way that these podcasts talk about it, They're

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:38.560
<v Speaker 2>like they're like she was able to produce tears and

0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:41.280
<v Speaker 2>therefore an illicit and a reaction from it. Like that's

0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:44.480
<v Speaker 2>the language they're using. It's like and I'm sorry, I

0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:48.320
<v Speaker 2>don't remember the names of the actual podcast, but like

0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:51.080
<v Speaker 2>they're coining these really interesting terms that I think it's

0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 2>sort of interesting.

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 3>And what do the women want? What are they trying

0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:56.800
<v Speaker 3>to just fame?

0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:58.720
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a myriad of things. Like I think

0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.880
<v Speaker 2>it's like the some of them, I'm sure are genuinely

0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:06.120
<v Speaker 2>looking for a lifetime of like marriage. I don't know,

0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:08.479
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, I don't know, but I'm like, I'm like,

0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:10.200
<v Speaker 2>so scart of when to get canceled for this really

0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm like, I'm like, I should not come for you.

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:16.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah there, and they are fierce, but but yeah, I

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:18.760
<v Speaker 2>feel like some of them maybe literally want marriage. I

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:22.440
<v Speaker 2>think also they're like wanting yeah, like a career of

0:07:22.480 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 2>their own or like they have like other things they

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 2>want to promote obviously.

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:29.440
<v Speaker 3>Right, energy drinks, Yeah.

0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 2>Things like that. And I think they're also like I

0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:33.840
<v Speaker 2>think some of them are just like on there to

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.720
<v Speaker 2>kind of like have fun on reality TV. Like I

0:07:36.760 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 2>don't know, like I think it's like a very interesting

0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:41.200
<v Speaker 2>but they own it. Like I think that's the thing is,

0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:44.679
<v Speaker 2>like they're like pretty you can kind of tell who's

0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:45.080
<v Speaker 2>there for.

0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.800
<v Speaker 3>What, right. I Mean, my only like closest experience I

0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:50.800
<v Speaker 3>have to this is Survivor, where like you watch New

0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:54.040
<v Speaker 3>Survivor and the contestants have been watching it for such

0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 3>a long time that it's no longer like they're aware

0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:59.560
<v Speaker 3>of the show in a way that like kind of

0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:01.600
<v Speaker 3>ruins the show. It's so longer that thing.

0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, It's definitely different than like in the early seasons

0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>of reality shows, where I feel like people were kind

0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:10.160
<v Speaker 2>of like I mean pretty much psychologically just sort of tortured,

0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:11.320
<v Speaker 2>not knowing what they were getting in.

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:15.520
<v Speaker 3>Right, and we're actually documenting these people being absolutely manipulated

0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 3>by producers.

0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, Yeah, they're like, oh, I'm like, I guess

0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:19.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna be on TV and like sort of no

0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:22.840
<v Speaker 2>one could anticipate what was gonna happen, and it's sort

0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 2>of hugely upsetting to watch.

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:26.880
<v Speaker 3>Are you so, are you new to The Bachelor.

0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Like relatively like some people I mean obviously have been

0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:33.040
<v Speaker 2>watching for years and years. The first season I watched

0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>was like the quarantine, Like twenty twenty season there was

0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.679
<v Speaker 2>a quarantine there was and that one was extra weird

0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:41.600
<v Speaker 2>because like usually they're flying them all over the world

0:08:41.679 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 2>and this one it was kind of like and we're

0:08:44.160 --> 0:08:46.120
<v Speaker 2>in Pennsylvan.

0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:46.880
<v Speaker 3>Moving around the yard.

0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was like they're like scaling like the same

0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:52.839
<v Speaker 2>building on like a like because they always do like

0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:55.319
<v Speaker 2>like a very active sort of like they're jumping.

0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:59.240
<v Speaker 3>Out of oh right, like skydie yeah yeah, bungee jumping. Yeah.

0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:01.600
<v Speaker 2>And this one they were like climb up the same wall.

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:07.520
<v Speaker 3>Use this writing lawnmower, yeah, which I love. Okay, wow,

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:10.600
<v Speaker 3>I yeah, I always I feel like I should probably

0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:14.520
<v Speaker 3>try to watch an entire season I've but it's every

0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:16.320
<v Speaker 3>time I try to dip in. I don't know.

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:19.960
<v Speaker 2>It's so reality it is, it's completely and I think

0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:22.600
<v Speaker 2>that for me is why I feel like I get

0:09:22.640 --> 0:09:25.800
<v Speaker 2>a little scared when it feels like there's the lines

0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:30.880
<v Speaker 2>are blurry like between like The Bachelor's so overproduced and ridiculous,

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 2>like the conversations like these, like no one thinks this is.

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:38.400
<v Speaker 3>Real, right right, I mean it's so stilted. It's like

0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:41.720
<v Speaker 3>the act you're seeing acting choices, yes, like truly.

0:09:41.360 --> 0:09:43.600
<v Speaker 2>You're seeing people be like Okay, who is my character again?

0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:46.880
<v Speaker 2>And I love that because it's just so silly, like

0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 2>it actually feels like camp. But then like I feel

0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:51.640
<v Speaker 2>like when reality shows get a little blurry and I'm

0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:54.320
<v Speaker 2>like oh uh oh, like people are like taking this seriously,

0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:56.960
<v Speaker 2>then I get a little scared, right right, Yeah.

0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:58.720
<v Speaker 3>Do you think you would ever go on a reality show?

0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:01.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't think. I well, I think I would maybe

0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.200
<v Speaker 2>do like a in the world of Survivor kind of

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:07.720
<v Speaker 2>one more competitive, yeah, like like what's it called, like

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:08.760
<v Speaker 2>the Ninja Warrior one?

0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:10.200
<v Speaker 3>I love nothing more?

0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:13.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Like I have dreams of like one day like

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:14.000
<v Speaker 2>making that my thing.

0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:16.400
<v Speaker 3>Do they have team Ninja Warrior. I feel like we

0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:17.280
<v Speaker 3>should go on together.

0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Know, oh my god, people would underestimate us, Oh my god,

0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:22.520
<v Speaker 2>and we would kill it. We would kill it.

0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 3>I just I know that we would be able to

0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:28.240
<v Speaker 3>do this Ninja Warrior reach out. Yeah, it seems so fun.

0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:29.640
<v Speaker 3>Does anyone ever get injured on that?

0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:36.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure there's no way everyone's walking away in one piece?

0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:38.760
<v Speaker 3>No, correct me if I'm wrong. Ninja Warrior is the

0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:41.000
<v Speaker 3>one where you're kind of scrambling around on things.

0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:44.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's pretty like insane physical challenges where they're like

0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:47.679
<v Speaker 2>again like throwing themselves into like I feel like it's

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.600
<v Speaker 2>like a lot of like padded like like weird. Wait

0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 2>is Ninja weorri the one way you fond of the lava?

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:58.319
<v Speaker 3>That's uh or don't touch the lava? The flora is

0:10:58.559 --> 0:10:59.560
<v Speaker 3>that one's the flora lava?

0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Okay, So I'm getting a couple completed. But yeah,

0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:03.280
<v Speaker 2>both of those I think we could do great.

0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I feel like Ninja Warrior. You're frequently over a

0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:09.440
<v Speaker 3>body of water like a swimming pool. Helicopter, Thank you

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:10.480
<v Speaker 3>for joining us.

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Thank you there, moving on with your day. That's my ride.

0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 3>A rope dangles down and they just take off Ninja Warrior.

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:22.599
<v Speaker 3>I feel like you're over a swimming pool, So it

0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:24.600
<v Speaker 3>seems like that's the very least you get to be

0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:25.959
<v Speaker 3>refreshed if you fall.

0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's a nice perspective.

0:11:27.920 --> 0:11:29.840
<v Speaker 3>The floor is lava. I feel like it's just literally

0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:33.000
<v Speaker 3>like yeah, pieces of styrofoam or something that you fall into.

0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:35.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, and the floor is lava. The thing that

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.320
<v Speaker 2>they do sometimes is like you can tell that it's

0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:41.760
<v Speaker 2>only like a three foot deep like pool, and then

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:46.120
<v Speaker 2>sometimes it is like a liquid like a stew sort of, yeah,

0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:50.440
<v Speaker 2>like a stew, like a human stew. But I feel

0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:53.120
<v Speaker 2>like sometimes you can tell that they've told them like

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:56.959
<v Speaker 2>make it like you're drowning, and then they're like, ah,

0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.400
<v Speaker 2>like they like have to like melt physically.

0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it should be at least like uncomfortably hot water.

0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.840
<v Speaker 3>Maybe not scalding, but enough where you like, oh.

0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:08.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, definitely definitely at least that.

0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:13.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, why call it lava? I mean, otherwise we're not.

0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 2>Gonna cold ice. Cool could be fine, just something to

0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:18.400
<v Speaker 2>get a scream, yeah, and that's also good for your

0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:18.920
<v Speaker 2>muscles that.

0:12:19.120 --> 0:12:23.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you're getting a cold plunge, which is so you

0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:26.640
<v Speaker 3>know on trend for everybody Flora's ice plunge.

0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:29.120
<v Speaker 2>Then people would be signing up. They would they not

0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:31.680
<v Speaker 2>to turn people away. I wouldn't want to do it.

0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Everyone's going there for their help. Yeah please, I don't

0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:35.800
<v Speaker 2>have insurance.

0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:42.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think Ninja Warrior we would be perfectly at

0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:45.280
<v Speaker 3>the very least fine on m Yeah. I think we

0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:50.040
<v Speaker 3>would straight by, but we would definitely scramble around make entertaining.

0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:52.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, absolutely, yeah. I wonder if you have to

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:54.520
<v Speaker 3>do training for that. How do you do training for

0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:56.280
<v Speaker 3>a Ninja Warrior program.

0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:57.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it's intensive.

0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:00.640
<v Speaker 3>I mean, do you think they are like specific programs.

0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:04.000
<v Speaker 2>I wonder what I'm thinking about now is that, like

0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:07.480
<v Speaker 2>back to the injury thing. My friend is a physical therapist,

0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:10.880
<v Speaker 2>and she told me this was like horrifying for me

0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:12.640
<v Speaker 2>to learn as someone who plays in a rec soccer

0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:17.520
<v Speaker 2>league once every three months. She said that the most

0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 2>common injuries that she sees are like adults, like people

0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:23.959
<v Speaker 2>over the age of like twenty eight, oh boy, who

0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:26.760
<v Speaker 2>have like casually gotten into like a sport every once

0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:29.599
<v Speaker 2>in a while, but are not properly like stretching or

0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:32.200
<v Speaker 2>doing anything like. So she sees like torn acls from

0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:34.640
<v Speaker 2>people who are like, I played in one rec basketball

0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:37.400
<v Speaker 2>game and then I got messed my body up so badly.

0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:42.040
<v Speaker 2>So that's why I'm like, I hope that they are preparing.

0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:44.439
<v Speaker 3>That would stretching for a few minutes before the big.

0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:47.520
<v Speaker 2>Warrior girls like it would be like the sad kind

0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.280
<v Speaker 2>of injury where it's like you wouldn't see anything you

0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:53.200
<v Speaker 2>have right, but in suddenly it's like someone's like, I'm

0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.080
<v Speaker 2>in the most pain I've ever been in.

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:56.800
<v Speaker 3>My writhing in pain, and we don't get to see

0:13:56.840 --> 0:14:00.560
<v Speaker 3>any gore, broken bones or anything. Yeah, they like stepped

0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:03.800
<v Speaker 3>backwards a little. Two guys they reached for a too

0:14:03.840 --> 0:14:09.079
<v Speaker 3>high shelf. Yeah, like, oh okay, yeah, that's something to

0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:11.080
<v Speaker 3>keep in mind. Wow, I'm not gonna I guess I

0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:12.560
<v Speaker 3>can't do any sports.

0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:16.400
<v Speaker 2>You just have to be like unfortunately stretching like way

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:20.040
<v Speaker 2>more than your stretching, which is like the least fun part. Oh,

0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:22.520
<v Speaker 2>it's so boring, I know. I'm like, oh, like, okay,

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:23.640
<v Speaker 2>I'll lunge around.

0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:25.360
<v Speaker 3>I guess you do yoga or anything.

0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:29.320
<v Speaker 2>No, No, Like I'm so bored, but I know that

0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:31.200
<v Speaker 2>I should do you do yoga?

0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:35.920
<v Speaker 3>No, I lift weights and for about forty seconds before

0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:38.640
<v Speaker 3>I go to the gym, I'll stretch. Okay, so not enough.

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:41.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, but at least I'm like going through the motion.

0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:44.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a suggestion, evidently, right, I think the body

0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:45.600
<v Speaker 2>appreciates a suggestion.

0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:46.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:48.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's as long as you're thinking about it. It's

0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:48.520
<v Speaker 2>like the same.

0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:50.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, from that one, I'll just think about it

0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.400
<v Speaker 3>on the right over okay, perfect, Yeah, some serious thought

0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:54.160
<v Speaker 3>about stretch.

0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:56.960
<v Speaker 2>By the time you're there, you're already bored event, and

0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:57.840
<v Speaker 2>so you can just skip.

0:14:57.640 --> 0:14:58.600
<v Speaker 3>It, so limber.

0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:02.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah. Oh, and I'm like, okay, I should stretch

0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:04.960
<v Speaker 2>after this, after the drive over.

0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I don't think I've ever actually done yoga at all,

0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:13.600
<v Speaker 3>now that we're saying, I think I've done a child's post.

0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:15.400
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that one's nice.

0:15:15.400 --> 0:15:18.760
<v Speaker 3>And then I think I've probably done Oh. I was

0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:21.920
<v Speaker 3>going to a trainer for a couple of months, like

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:25.920
<v Speaker 3>as the pandemic was kind of slowing down a little bit,

0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:30.480
<v Speaker 3>and he would have me do different cat cow, I

0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 3>think of something, and then he started really recommending Joe Rogan. Oh,

0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.960
<v Speaker 3>and that became part of about half of the workout time.

0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:40.320
<v Speaker 3>So we had to I kind of had to just

0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:42.680
<v Speaker 3>kind of slowly remove myself from him.

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. The crazy thing with that kind of guy is

0:15:46.040 --> 0:15:49.120
<v Speaker 2>that it actually is like I've found, like it's not

0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:52.160
<v Speaker 2>who you're expecting it to be that you're talking to

0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.440
<v Speaker 2>and is suddenly like, wait, have you listened to this

0:15:54.840 --> 0:15:58.440
<v Speaker 2>guy Joe Rogan And you're like, whoa? I actually thought

0:15:58.480 --> 0:15:59.920
<v Speaker 2>we were kind of like on the same base.

0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:01.480
<v Speaker 3>And that's where it becomes tricky because you have to

0:16:01.560 --> 0:16:03.000
<v Speaker 3>kind of let them down.

0:16:03.080 --> 0:16:04.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because you're like, I don't want to just be

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.200
<v Speaker 2>like whoa, okay crazy and walk away or whatever. I mean, sorry,

0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:11.400
<v Speaker 2>but like it's kind of I mean, when I run

0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:13.480
<v Speaker 2>into that, it's frequently like oh yeah, I'll have to

0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:16.000
<v Speaker 2>check it out. Yeah yeah, yeah, I'll like fake, I'll like,

0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:17.240
<v Speaker 2>oh maybe I'll write that down.

0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:17.600
<v Speaker 3>In my notes.

0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:19.000
<v Speaker 2>You're like Joe, what was it?

0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and then just avoid because you don't want to

0:16:24.440 --> 0:16:25.000
<v Speaker 3>follow up.

0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:28.240
<v Speaker 2>No, no, you don't want to have to be like

0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:29.239
<v Speaker 2>I took a listen.

0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:33.000
<v Speaker 3>And it really does kind of have some real common

0:16:33.040 --> 0:16:33.760
<v Speaker 3>sense answers.

0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I was. I was surprisingly engaged. Yeah.

0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:39.760
<v Speaker 3>No, this trainer was like talking about Joe broken, but

0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:41.560
<v Speaker 3>then getting into like guests like I guess he has

0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:44.120
<v Speaker 3>a guest that like and encourages people to do small

0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:47.240
<v Speaker 3>amounts of heroin or something. I was like, I'm hearing

0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.280
<v Speaker 3>this from someone who's supposed to be caring about my

0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:51.760
<v Speaker 3>canileth on some level, right, And.

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 2>Then you're kind of like, so, what else do you believe?

0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:59.920
<v Speaker 3>Like what is this entire philosophy.

0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:02.280
<v Speaker 2>Of It's a hard one to track I've found.

0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:05.159
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, And then there were like I kind of

0:17:05.200 --> 0:17:08.280
<v Speaker 3>just ghosted him. Then maybe like once every two weeks

0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:10.560
<v Speaker 3>I was getting a text, and once a month. Then

0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:14.240
<v Speaker 3>he vanished, and then he texted like a one year anniversary.

0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:17.320
<v Speaker 3>And it's not simply not getting responses to any of

0:17:17.359 --> 0:17:20.159
<v Speaker 3>these things just go away. Yeah, but I guess he

0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:22.080
<v Speaker 3>thought we had built something.

0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:27.040
<v Speaker 2>It's so perplexing to me when people continue to text

0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:29.760
<v Speaker 2>after you haven't been responding, Like it's actually the most

0:17:29.760 --> 0:17:32.080
<v Speaker 2>confusing thing, like outside of I know it's like a

0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:33.880
<v Speaker 2>meme at this point of like people from dating apps

0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:36.920
<v Speaker 2>or whatever, but like in like just like a normal

0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:42.560
<v Speaker 2>like friendship or like acquaintanceship and then you haven't been responded,

0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:46.359
<v Speaker 2>like I would never mortifying, like someone doesn't respond to

0:17:46.359 --> 0:17:48.959
<v Speaker 2>me for a few days I'm like noted, like like

0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:53.000
<v Speaker 2>I understand, I'm not returning to that thread because it's

0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:54.520
<v Speaker 2>just like I mean, I don't want to see it

0:17:54.560 --> 0:17:56.439
<v Speaker 2>in silence. Yeah, I don't want to look up and

0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:58.520
<v Speaker 2>be like, oh, I asked you a question and you

0:17:58.600 --> 0:18:02.760
<v Speaker 2>never responded, like you're obviously busy, at the very.

0:18:02.680 --> 0:18:06.480
<v Speaker 3>Least busier than me. Yeah, and that alone, that's.

0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:10.119
<v Speaker 2>Fine, but like to follow up and be like thinking

0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:12.160
<v Speaker 2>about you, it's crazy.

0:18:14.000 --> 0:18:17.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I am. I don't know what the psychology is.

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:20.280
<v Speaker 3>I guess some people just their communication methods are different.

0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:26.399
<v Speaker 3>I guess so some people are desperate, some people are lonely,

0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:32.159
<v Speaker 3>some people are dangerous, all totally valid things to be.

0:18:33.600 --> 0:18:37.760
<v Speaker 2>It is so valid to be dangerous. We support you, like,

0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:40.440
<v Speaker 2>keep doing you serious?

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:43.440
<v Speaker 3>If anything, do it more? Yeah, because we're all wondering

0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.200
<v Speaker 3>are you dangerous? We want to know they are dangerous?

0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:47.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, we want the confirmation.

0:18:47.880 --> 0:18:51.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. We need to be able to spread the word.

0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:55.159
<v Speaker 2>The ambiguous identity of dangerous. It's such an interesting one.

0:18:55.359 --> 0:18:58.560
<v Speaker 2>Let us celebrate how dangerous you are. Could means so

0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:03.440
<v Speaker 2>many things dangerous in what way? Dangerously friendly?

0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:11.480
<v Speaker 3>I mean speaking of communication methods and not quite getting it.

0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:15.600
<v Speaker 3>This sort of thing this podcast is called. I said

0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:18.240
<v Speaker 3>no gifts, I of course was thrilled to have you

0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:22.920
<v Speaker 3>here today. Eachj will come along, we'll have a perfect conversation,

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:27.240
<v Speaker 3>and then we'll move on with our days. So I

0:19:27.560 --> 0:19:34.040
<v Speaker 3>was flabbergasted, thrown and floored when I kind of met

0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:37.120
<v Speaker 3>you at my gate. We almost ran into each other

0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:41.960
<v Speaker 3>meet cute style, and you were holding this gorgeous gift bag.

0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:47.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm trying to just wrap my head around what's going

0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:49.879
<v Speaker 3>on right now? Is this gift for me?

0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:52.880
<v Speaker 2>It is?

0:19:53.359 --> 0:19:58.560
<v Speaker 3>Okay, totally fine, absolutely fair? Should I open it here

0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:08.840
<v Speaker 3>on the podcast? I would like that, okay, right, okay,

0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:11.960
<v Speaker 3>So I'm happy to open it. I'm happy to get

0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:12.320
<v Speaker 3>in here.

0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 3>It's kind of this gorgeous bag with different cake and sweets,

0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:19.120
<v Speaker 3>which I just love. And then we've got the tissue,

0:20:19.200 --> 0:20:22.520
<v Speaker 3>which we're trying to get into more on the podcast.

0:20:22.720 --> 0:20:25.560
<v Speaker 3>Recently we had kind of a dry spell of noise,

0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:28.760
<v Speaker 3>and now we're getting back into the tissue noise and

0:20:28.800 --> 0:20:37.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm reaching in, reaching in, pulling out oh now. So yeah,

0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:39.159
<v Speaker 3>So the truth is this. It did not come in

0:20:39.200 --> 0:20:40.840
<v Speaker 3>a bag. I came into the backyard and you just

0:20:40.880 --> 0:20:43.160
<v Speaker 3>kind of had it on the table, So I said,

0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:45.399
<v Speaker 3>we have to get this in a bag for the surprise.

0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:47.640
<v Speaker 3>So I kind of tried to not look at it. Yeah,

0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:50.000
<v Speaker 3>I saw a piece of paper with rocks glued to it,

0:20:50.040 --> 0:20:52.960
<v Speaker 3>but nothing else. Okay, and so now we're getting into

0:20:52.960 --> 0:20:55.320
<v Speaker 3>the surprise. But it says common rocks and minerals of

0:20:55.359 --> 0:21:00.600
<v Speaker 3>Eating Canyon. What's happening here for asking?

0:21:00.800 --> 0:21:06.560
<v Speaker 2>So so basically this is a you were You were

0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:09.440
<v Speaker 2>exactly right. It's basically a piece of paper with rocks

0:21:09.480 --> 0:21:16.240
<v Speaker 2>glued to it, but it's an informational sort of item

0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:19.800
<v Speaker 2>that tells you about the different rocks that you can

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:21.760
<v Speaker 2>find in eating can do you know eaton Canyon?

0:21:22.000 --> 0:21:23.080
<v Speaker 3>No? Is it in l A.

0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:23.800
<v Speaker 2>It is in.

0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:26.440
<v Speaker 3>Altadena, Okay, beautiful Altady.

0:21:26.080 --> 0:21:29.199
<v Speaker 2>Beautiful Aladina. So here's the thing about this is that

0:21:29.440 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 2>so I took a class last spring where I learned

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:36.560
<v Speaker 2>all about like the different natural elements of this canyon

0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:37.280
<v Speaker 2>in Altadena.

0:21:37.640 --> 0:21:38.800
<v Speaker 3>What a specific class?

0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:40.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Where did you.

0:21:40.359 --> 0:21:41.040
<v Speaker 3>Find the class?

0:21:41.520 --> 0:21:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, I was on a walk at this canyon and

0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:46.119
<v Speaker 2>they had there was a sign.

0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:47.359
<v Speaker 3>Someone jumped out of the bushes.

0:21:47.440 --> 0:21:49.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, someone jumped out of the bushes. And I never

0:21:49.359 --> 0:21:52.320
<v Speaker 2>wants to learn I have a lot to teach you.

0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:53.960
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh my god, it okay, that is

0:21:53.960 --> 0:21:56.520
<v Speaker 3>the scariest thing for someone to jumping out of a bush.

0:21:56.320 --> 0:21:58.640
<v Speaker 2>To hi and I'm dangerous.

0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:02.960
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh, you're so Yeah.

0:22:03.000 --> 0:22:05.040
<v Speaker 2>So I was on a walk in the canyon. I

0:22:05.080 --> 0:22:10.080
<v Speaker 2>saw a poster that said Docent Naturalists Training Volunteer Training Program.

0:22:10.119 --> 0:22:10.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay, oh my god.

0:22:11.280 --> 0:22:14.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's kind of a lot. It's a mouthful, but

0:22:14.440 --> 0:22:18.439
<v Speaker 2>basically it was like a bi weekly class that twice

0:22:18.480 --> 0:22:20.160
<v Speaker 2>a week. Because bi weekly can be.

0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:22.920
<v Speaker 3>Bi weekly, We've got a narrow down what that means.

0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:27.119
<v Speaker 2>So that was twice a week and for like a

0:22:27.200 --> 0:22:29.760
<v Speaker 2>few months, and I went in every day with a

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:34.080
<v Speaker 2>bunch of I would majority older people, and we learned

0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:37.320
<v Speaker 2>how to like take like all of the things you

0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:39.080
<v Speaker 2>need to know about the canyon to kind of like

0:22:39.080 --> 0:22:41.440
<v Speaker 2>tour people through the canyon. Oh so it was kind

0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:43.840
<v Speaker 2>of like a tour guide teacher class. And that's what

0:22:43.880 --> 0:22:49.040
<v Speaker 2>a docent is, which I of course connected. Yeah, but

0:22:49.119 --> 0:22:50.439
<v Speaker 2>this is like a canyon docent.

0:22:50.560 --> 0:22:53.560
<v Speaker 3>You've rarely rarely seen canyon docent, right, It's.

0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:57.560
<v Speaker 2>A rare one. And so I was like, you know what, frankly,

0:22:57.640 --> 0:22:59.240
<v Speaker 2>was it a period of my life where I felt

0:22:59.280 --> 0:23:03.840
<v Speaker 2>I had nothing going on, and so I said, sure,

0:23:03.840 --> 0:23:07.480
<v Speaker 2>I will become a docent of you in canyon. And

0:23:08.600 --> 0:23:10.320
<v Speaker 2>so I sat in this room twice a week with

0:23:10.400 --> 0:23:12.760
<v Speaker 2>these lovely people, and I learned all about it. And

0:23:12.800 --> 0:23:15.560
<v Speaker 2>then when I graduated, mm hmmm, I got a bag

0:23:15.600 --> 0:23:18.080
<v Speaker 2>of tricks you could say that are like things that

0:23:18.119 --> 0:23:20.040
<v Speaker 2>help you, like walk people through the canyon and teach

0:23:20.080 --> 0:23:22.600
<v Speaker 2>them about so oh great, and this was one of

0:23:22.640 --> 0:23:26.800
<v Speaker 2>those things. And what's awesome about it is it's pretty direct,

0:23:26.880 --> 0:23:28.680
<v Speaker 2>Like I mean, you sort of on first glance could

0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:30.760
<v Speaker 2>kind of tell what it was, right, right, And it's

0:23:30.760 --> 0:23:33.000
<v Speaker 2>just like the different rocks that are found in the canyon, yes,

0:23:33.119 --> 0:23:36.000
<v Speaker 2>which a lot of the details about them I have forgotten.

0:23:36.160 --> 0:23:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so you're so, I'm not like rusty as.

0:23:38.480 --> 0:23:41.560
<v Speaker 2>A rusty as a docent, but I felt like, you know,

0:23:41.640 --> 0:23:44.040
<v Speaker 2>it is something that if you were like going on

0:23:44.080 --> 0:23:45.919
<v Speaker 2>a walk kind of anywhere in LA it's kind of

0:23:45.920 --> 0:23:47.480
<v Speaker 2>a fun thing to have in your bag.

0:23:47.640 --> 0:23:50.359
<v Speaker 3>Right right. So okay, so let's get back to this

0:23:50.400 --> 0:23:53.160
<v Speaker 3>class for a minute. You're going twice a week. How

0:23:53.160 --> 0:23:54.840
<v Speaker 3>big was the class? Like?

0:23:55.000 --> 0:23:55.639
<v Speaker 2>Twenty people?

0:23:55.760 --> 0:23:58.919
<v Speaker 3>Okay, twenty people? You were the lot ofgest preshared people.

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:03.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, are you making frin Oh yeah, lifelong temporarily mean

0:24:04.400 --> 0:24:09.000
<v Speaker 2>we've stayed in touch. You're texting email? Yeah, I'm emailing

0:24:09.040 --> 0:24:11.080
<v Speaker 2>a bit, you know. I mean, actually, genuinely, it was

0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:14.040
<v Speaker 2>really sweet they I was. It was around the time

0:24:14.040 --> 0:24:16.280
<v Speaker 2>when I was doing my show in the like Netflix's

0:24:16.400 --> 0:24:18.680
<v Speaker 2>Joke Festival, right, and a lot of them did come

0:24:18.680 --> 0:24:20.960
<v Speaker 2>to my show. Oh that's very which was really sweet.

0:24:21.280 --> 0:24:24.119
<v Speaker 2>That's wonderful. Yeah, I love those guys. But yeah, it

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:26.520
<v Speaker 2>was also just it was kind of like a side

0:24:26.520 --> 0:24:29.159
<v Speaker 2>of la that I haven't really seen because I'm so

0:24:29.400 --> 0:24:31.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of I don't know, you know how it is.

0:24:31.359 --> 0:24:34.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm sort of hanging out with a sort of bohemian

0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:39.679
<v Speaker 2>type artistic you know, these people, and so these like

0:24:39.720 --> 0:24:41.160
<v Speaker 2>it was cool to be in a class with someone

0:24:41.200 --> 0:24:43.719
<v Speaker 2>who's like, oh, I'm like a retired biologist.

0:24:43.359 --> 0:24:46.040
<v Speaker 3>Right, I'm someone who does something meaningful. Yeah, did something

0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:47.960
<v Speaker 3>meaningful and has knowledge.

0:24:47.720 --> 0:24:50.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, truly truly knowledge to share that like actually deeply

0:24:50.640 --> 0:24:55.320
<v Speaker 2>impacts our physical environment, and I'm willing to forge real relationships.

0:24:55.640 --> 0:24:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:24:55.920 --> 0:24:59.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I'm sort of showing up completely authentically as myself.

0:25:00.240 --> 0:25:02.760
<v Speaker 2>I was like that is, I mean, what a novel content.

0:25:02.440 --> 0:25:04.159
<v Speaker 3>You do have to go to the canyons to find that?

0:25:04.400 --> 0:25:05.680
<v Speaker 3>You do? You do?

0:25:06.880 --> 0:25:08.440
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I learned a lot.

0:25:08.480 --> 0:25:11.440
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So and what were you learning, Like what were

0:25:11.440 --> 0:25:13.280
<v Speaker 3>the interesting things you were learning from this class that

0:25:13.280 --> 0:25:14.840
<v Speaker 3>you were like, Oh, that's fascinating.

0:25:15.119 --> 0:25:16.320
<v Speaker 2>Well it started.

0:25:16.440 --> 0:25:17.280
<v Speaker 3>It was cool.

0:25:17.480 --> 0:25:19.840
<v Speaker 2>It was sort of like on a timeline of like

0:25:20.520 --> 0:25:23.040
<v Speaker 2>the first things we learned about were like the indigenous

0:25:23.080 --> 0:25:24.800
<v Speaker 2>tongue of people that lived in the canyon before the

0:25:24.840 --> 0:25:27.399
<v Speaker 2>Spanish settlers, right right, Well, they didn't actually live in

0:25:27.440 --> 0:25:30.199
<v Speaker 2>the canyon full time. Usually they were there sort of

0:25:30.240 --> 0:25:34.359
<v Speaker 2>seasonally depending on like what like things they were foraging for.

0:25:34.880 --> 0:25:37.199
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, so like learning about like the histories of

0:25:37.200 --> 0:25:39.360
<v Speaker 2>like people that have been in like Altadena for like

0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:42.680
<v Speaker 2>way longer than white people. And then we moved into

0:25:42.720 --> 0:25:44.800
<v Speaker 2>just like different natural elements of the canyons. So like

0:25:45.080 --> 0:25:48.639
<v Speaker 2>start with plants, animals, you know, learning stuff of like

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:51.160
<v Speaker 2>because really they're prepping you to be able to walk

0:25:51.200 --> 0:25:54.040
<v Speaker 2>through mostly children like groups of children.

0:25:54.240 --> 0:25:55.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh okay, we're doing that deal trip.

0:25:55.640 --> 0:25:58.000
<v Speaker 2>So it's like they're like focusing on stuff of like Okay,

0:25:58.560 --> 0:26:01.800
<v Speaker 2>this kind of lizard changes colors depending on how much

0:26:01.840 --> 0:26:02.800
<v Speaker 2>sun he's gone in the day.

0:26:02.840 --> 0:26:05.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh, but that's a fact. But it's like.

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Awesome stuff, you know, Like it's like, Okay, I'm walking

0:26:07.160 --> 0:26:09.800
<v Speaker 2>around my neighborhood. I'm like, uh, that lizard's pretty dark.

0:26:11.200 --> 0:26:14.000
<v Speaker 2>He doesn't need any more sun. You know, it's at

0:26:14.080 --> 0:26:16.679
<v Speaker 2>risk for melanoma. Yeah, like he needs to get inside.

0:26:16.760 --> 0:26:17.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, are human?

0:26:18.119 --> 0:26:18.159
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:26:18.640 --> 0:26:21.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, actually that's a set topic of melanoma. Mel we're

0:26:21.520 --> 0:26:25.840
<v Speaker 3>not getting into let's get into it, MELI. Yeah. Oh

0:26:25.880 --> 0:26:27.919
<v Speaker 3>so you learned about all of these what sort of

0:26:27.920 --> 0:26:30.040
<v Speaker 3>animals are scurrying about in the canyons?

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:34.439
<v Speaker 2>I mean all kinds, Like there's okay, let me let

0:26:34.480 --> 0:26:36.199
<v Speaker 2>me see if I can get this fact actually completely right.

0:26:36.800 --> 0:26:42.560
<v Speaker 2>La is one of two megacities in the world that

0:26:42.800 --> 0:26:47.760
<v Speaker 2>is home to a large predator cat.

0:26:48.080 --> 0:26:48.800
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

0:26:48.840 --> 0:26:51.760
<v Speaker 2>So it's like it's La and I'm pretty sure Dubai

0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:56.000
<v Speaker 2>the two to buy. Yeah, are the two like mega

0:26:56.040 --> 0:26:57.840
<v Speaker 2>cities in the world. Oh my god, I hope I'm

0:26:57.840 --> 0:26:58.520
<v Speaker 2>getting this right.

0:26:58.520 --> 0:27:01.120
<v Speaker 3>On a Lisha's rap. You're checking the internet.

0:27:01.200 --> 0:27:01.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay. Cool.

0:27:02.000 --> 0:27:04.240
<v Speaker 3>So it's like, because you know about P twenty two, yeah,

0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:06.280
<v Speaker 3>of course, Mountain Lion slash Cougar.

0:27:06.440 --> 0:27:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So like that's so rare that he was like

0:27:10.000 --> 0:27:13.199
<v Speaker 2>in La County and like sharing space with people that

0:27:13.240 --> 0:27:15.639
<v Speaker 2>close by, right, right, And so like that's the kind

0:27:15.640 --> 0:27:17.480
<v Speaker 2>of thing of like there's like mountain lions, there's.

0:27:17.280 --> 0:27:22.919
<v Speaker 3>Bobcats, bobcats, there's BlackBerry by Mumbai. Okay, yeah, I was

0:27:22.920 --> 0:27:26.560
<v Speaker 3>gonna say Dubai. That doesn't there's nothing natural happening in Dubai.

0:27:26.600 --> 0:27:29.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't think that there's any living thing other than yeah,

0:27:29.840 --> 0:27:33.800
<v Speaker 3>freaks who drive Bugatti's or yeah that's so true humiliating

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:37.719
<v Speaker 3>but whatever. But it's still the crazy like La in

0:27:37.720 --> 0:27:39.880
<v Speaker 3>one of the like it's kind of like, what wow, Yeah,

0:27:39.880 --> 0:27:42.840
<v Speaker 3>that's reasly fascinating. What's I wonder what the big cat

0:27:42.880 --> 0:27:46.520
<v Speaker 3>and Mumbai is leopard? I love a leopard. I'd love

0:27:46.560 --> 0:27:48.120
<v Speaker 3>to see a leopard in the city. Oh my god,

0:27:48.200 --> 0:27:54.119
<v Speaker 3>I know, kind of just wandering around shopping. Yeah yeah, okay,

0:27:54.119 --> 0:27:56.960
<v Speaker 3>so mountain lions they're very rare in cities obviously.

0:27:57.119 --> 0:27:59.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So it's like crazy that we're so close to

0:28:00.040 --> 0:28:01.080
<v Speaker 2>big animals like.

0:28:01.119 --> 0:28:04.040
<v Speaker 3>That, right, And I feel like I've just recently seen

0:28:04.080 --> 0:28:08.080
<v Speaker 3>on Instagram there's a new mountain lion making waves. Yeah,

0:28:08.160 --> 0:28:08.880
<v Speaker 3>does I have a name?

0:28:09.720 --> 0:28:11.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it has a name yet.

0:28:11.240 --> 0:28:13.159
<v Speaker 3>And do we know why P twenty two was called that?

0:28:15.080 --> 0:28:17.760
<v Speaker 2>Something about the way they tracked him or something.

0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:20.280
<v Speaker 3>Some joyless oh honor Lisa saying yes, yeah, couldn't just

0:28:20.280 --> 0:28:23.240
<v Speaker 3>give it a name, I know, some dignity. Yeah, it's

0:28:23.359 --> 0:28:24.960
<v Speaker 3>really humiliating for that animal.

0:28:25.080 --> 0:28:25.520
<v Speaker 2>I know.

0:28:25.720 --> 0:28:27.600
<v Speaker 3>I was hopefully with this next one, I've got another

0:28:27.680 --> 0:28:28.680
<v Speaker 3>chance to give it a name.

0:28:28.800 --> 0:28:31.560
<v Speaker 2>I know. I hope he can live a fruitful life.

0:28:31.640 --> 0:28:35.640
<v Speaker 3>Now. I was on a hike recently and we got

0:28:35.680 --> 0:28:38.200
<v Speaker 3>into it like a waterfall situation. I've kind of decided

0:28:38.240 --> 0:28:40.600
<v Speaker 3>I only want to end a hike where I'm swimming

0:28:40.640 --> 0:28:43.720
<v Speaker 3>around a waterfall. But there, while we were swimming around

0:28:43.760 --> 0:28:47.479
<v Speaker 3>in this waterfall, we looked at the rock and there

0:28:47.480 --> 0:28:50.240
<v Speaker 3>were little frogs that had changed to the color of

0:28:50.280 --> 0:28:51.800
<v Speaker 3>the rock. Did you learn about this?

0:28:52.720 --> 0:28:57.840
<v Speaker 2>We didn't really talk too much about frogs because they're

0:28:58.200 --> 0:29:01.080
<v Speaker 2>in Eton Canyon. They're kind of an invasive The frogs

0:29:01.080 --> 0:29:04.520
<v Speaker 2>that are oh interesting, I'm pretty like the ones that

0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:06.960
<v Speaker 2>are closer by to like where we would do the walks,

0:29:06.960 --> 0:29:11.080
<v Speaker 2>the like nature walks, because they were like, yeah, there

0:29:11.120 --> 0:29:13.080
<v Speaker 2>was something about like the tadpoles that had been born

0:29:13.120 --> 0:29:13.560
<v Speaker 2>in that one.

0:29:13.600 --> 0:29:17.520
<v Speaker 3>But oh no, it's odd to think of a frog

0:29:17.640 --> 0:29:18.480
<v Speaker 3>being a problem.

0:29:18.840 --> 0:29:20.520
<v Speaker 2>I know. Now. I'm like, now I'm gonna be just

0:29:20.640 --> 0:29:23.080
<v Speaker 2>spinning this whole podcast touting like nature facts. I don't

0:29:23.080 --> 0:29:24.160
<v Speaker 2>exactly know, but there's.

0:29:24.280 --> 0:29:27.120
<v Speaker 3>Information like it is crazy though.

0:29:27.160 --> 0:29:29.320
<v Speaker 2>Frogs do like the noisiest ones are often ones where

0:29:29.320 --> 0:29:30.800
<v Speaker 2>you're like, I don't know if you're supposed to be here.

0:29:30.960 --> 0:29:33.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh so it's more of like a noise ordinance thing,

0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:35.800
<v Speaker 3>just like noisy neighbor complaints.

0:29:35.880 --> 0:29:36.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the neighbors.

0:29:36.560 --> 0:29:40.280
<v Speaker 3>I hate them, yeah, because I mean they're just eating bugs.

0:29:40.280 --> 0:29:45.440
<v Speaker 3>They're not attacking large mammals or anything. No, no, yeah,

0:29:45.600 --> 0:29:49.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean I suppose some are poisonous. But these these

0:29:49.160 --> 0:29:51.360
<v Speaker 3>frogs I'm going to stand up for because you know,

0:29:51.360 --> 0:29:52.880
<v Speaker 3>they were changing to the color of the rock.

0:29:53.000 --> 0:29:54.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they might have been meant to be there.

0:29:54.600 --> 0:29:55.720
<v Speaker 2>I can't really speak for them.

0:29:55.720 --> 0:29:58.520
<v Speaker 3>Adorable once you saw one and then suddenly they're everywhere.

0:29:58.520 --> 0:30:01.800
<v Speaker 3>They've been camouflaged all over, that's crazy. I love to

0:30:01.840 --> 0:30:02.720
<v Speaker 3>see a frog in the wild.

0:30:02.840 --> 0:30:05.840
<v Speaker 2>I loved it. And sometimes they are so small all

0:30:06.160 --> 0:30:08.000
<v Speaker 2>the best, like the size of your fingernail.

0:30:08.120 --> 0:30:09.600
<v Speaker 3>I had a little lizard that was the size of

0:30:09.600 --> 0:30:13.760
<v Speaker 3>a fingernail just down there, and I so melted. Absolutely.

0:30:13.920 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 3>I may have taken a video or a photo. I'll

0:30:15.640 --> 0:30:17.800
<v Speaker 3>try to share that, but when a lizard is the

0:30:17.840 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 3>size of a fingernail, it's crazy. What are we even

0:30:20.440 --> 0:30:20.920
<v Speaker 3>talking about?

0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:22.200
<v Speaker 2>What are we doing?

0:30:22.520 --> 0:30:25.719
<v Speaker 3>Where is it headed? What will it become? How does

0:30:25.760 --> 0:30:29.720
<v Speaker 3>it survive? That's a good question, very sweet little journey.

0:30:29.720 --> 0:30:33.320
<v Speaker 3>Those things are wrong. I know, lizard, but are you

0:30:33.360 --> 0:30:34.200
<v Speaker 3>a snake person?

0:30:35.200 --> 0:30:36.320
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate a snake.

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:36.840
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:30:37.000 --> 0:30:39.680
<v Speaker 2>I had a recent encounter with what I mean in

0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Eaton Canyon. I'm not gonna lie. I had a recent

0:30:41.880 --> 0:30:44.200
<v Speaker 2>encounter with one where I was walking down the path

0:30:44.280 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 2>and it was a massive rattlesnake. Like I it was

0:30:49.480 --> 0:30:52.240
<v Speaker 2>actually one of those moments where I was like like

0:30:52.560 --> 0:30:54.120
<v Speaker 2>sort of an out of body like because it's like

0:30:54.360 --> 0:30:55.960
<v Speaker 2>you know when you see something and you're like is

0:30:56.000 --> 0:30:57.280
<v Speaker 2>that a snake and you're like no, no, no, that would

0:30:57.280 --> 0:31:00.280
<v Speaker 2>be crazy, Like that's way too big. This was like

0:31:00.400 --> 0:31:02.080
<v Speaker 2>I had that moment and then I was like, no,

0:31:02.240 --> 0:31:04.080
<v Speaker 2>that's a snake. And then it rattled away.

0:31:04.520 --> 0:31:07.440
<v Speaker 3>Did it rattle? It's thing? It did, but it left,

0:31:07.600 --> 0:31:08.360
<v Speaker 3>it didn't attack.

0:31:08.640 --> 0:31:10.080
<v Speaker 2>They don't really want to.

0:31:10.600 --> 0:31:12.400
<v Speaker 3>Okay, let's get into Rattle six. I'm trying to turn

0:31:12.440 --> 0:31:14.840
<v Speaker 3>this into a utility podcast where people are learning. This

0:31:15.000 --> 0:31:16.719
<v Speaker 3>is kind of we're in competition with the Daylight now.

0:31:16.760 --> 0:31:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:31:17.000 --> 0:31:18.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so it's kind of, you know, we're just trying

0:31:18.920 --> 0:31:22.280
<v Speaker 3>to get facts. Rattlesnicks they'll screwed away from you.

0:31:22.400 --> 0:31:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they're not exactly. They're not super aggressive, like if

0:31:24.560 --> 0:31:27.400
<v Speaker 2>they feel like you're trying to you know, they'll defend themselves. Okay,

0:31:27.400 --> 0:31:29.040
<v Speaker 2>but they're not the kind of snake that's like chasing

0:31:29.040 --> 0:31:31.160
<v Speaker 2>you down the road, which.

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Doing in the back of a motorcycle. Yeah. Oh that's interesting.

0:31:34.400 --> 0:31:36.160
<v Speaker 3>So it's more of like, oh, I'm sorry I stepped

0:31:36.200 --> 0:31:37.480
<v Speaker 3>on you, and now it's attack.

0:31:37.640 --> 0:31:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, it's like don't do that, you know, And

0:31:40.160 --> 0:31:42.200
<v Speaker 2>the rattle is really like it's warning you.

0:31:42.120 --> 0:31:44.360
<v Speaker 3>Like, hey, please, are you giving you signs?

0:31:44.480 --> 0:31:45.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:31:45.440 --> 0:31:46.840
<v Speaker 3>Wow? So what am I supposed to do when I

0:31:46.880 --> 0:31:47.720
<v Speaker 3>see a rattlesnake?

0:31:48.640 --> 0:31:50.600
<v Speaker 2>Probably just give it space. I mean, they can feel

0:31:50.640 --> 0:31:53.040
<v Speaker 2>the vibrations in the ground if you coming close, so

0:31:53.120 --> 0:31:55.320
<v Speaker 2>like they're not like gonna hang around and be like

0:31:55.400 --> 0:31:58.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna get you. But like like when I saw

0:31:58.520 --> 0:32:00.479
<v Speaker 2>this rattlesnake. There was someone coming up behind me who

0:32:00.520 --> 0:32:02.440
<v Speaker 2>had a little dog with her, and the dog was

0:32:02.520 --> 0:32:04.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of I think he was on a leash, but

0:32:04.160 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 2>the leash was kind of along, so he was kind

0:32:05.320 --> 0:32:07.960
<v Speaker 2>of like darting around. Oh no, and I was like, hey,

0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:11.840
<v Speaker 2>pick up your dog, probably because he's like that. The

0:32:11.920 --> 0:32:13.120
<v Speaker 2>dog is going to be the one that's going to

0:32:13.120 --> 0:32:14.240
<v Speaker 2>get nailed by the snake.

0:32:14.160 --> 0:32:17.200
<v Speaker 3>Right, I mean, speaking of venomous creatures, a bee or

0:32:17.720 --> 0:32:19.400
<v Speaker 3>hornet just flew right through.

0:32:19.240 --> 0:32:21.000
<v Speaker 2>And left us alone.

0:32:21.280 --> 0:32:23.000
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so it's okay.

0:32:23.000 --> 0:32:25.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so you don't really you just have to keep

0:32:25.160 --> 0:32:27.400
<v Speaker 2>an eye out, right, keep an eye out so you're

0:32:27.440 --> 0:32:30.000
<v Speaker 2>not stepping on them. Take a listen, yeah, because they'll

0:32:30.040 --> 0:32:31.680
<v Speaker 2>spread them and this is what this one is doing.

0:32:32.200 --> 0:32:34.960
<v Speaker 2>They'll they're getting some sun too, like their sun bathing.

0:32:35.200 --> 0:32:36.280
<v Speaker 3>These sun freaks, I.

0:32:36.240 --> 0:32:38.640
<v Speaker 2>Know, they're obsessed. It's like they're it's like they're cold

0:32:38.680 --> 0:32:42.360
<v Speaker 2>blooded or something. So he was getting some sun lying

0:32:42.400 --> 0:32:43.400
<v Speaker 2>out in the middle of the path.

0:32:43.640 --> 0:32:45.000
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so that's.

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:46.360
<v Speaker 2>When you're kind of like, that's when you would maybe

0:32:46.400 --> 0:32:47.880
<v Speaker 2>step on him because you're not looking.

0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:50.800
<v Speaker 3>Right, right. So what snakes are? Uh, Well, first of all,

0:32:50.840 --> 0:32:52.920
<v Speaker 3>if I get bit by a rattlesnake. What am I

0:32:52.960 --> 0:32:53.600
<v Speaker 3>supposed to do?

0:32:55.200 --> 0:32:57.960
<v Speaker 2>Really, they're like sucking it out? The poison out is

0:32:57.960 --> 0:32:58.479
<v Speaker 2>a miss?

0:32:58.600 --> 0:32:59.440
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that's a myth.

0:32:59.520 --> 0:33:05.280
<v Speaker 2>Interest, Yeah, is my understanding. I am brilling you on

0:33:05.920 --> 0:33:08.840
<v Speaker 2>safety information. I didn't even think about the fact that,

0:33:08.960 --> 0:33:11.560
<v Speaker 2>like obviously I knew I was gonna talk about.

0:33:11.320 --> 0:33:13.520
<v Speaker 3>The right to find out if you learned anything in.

0:33:13.480 --> 0:33:15.959
<v Speaker 2>This And it's like I swear I did, Diane, if

0:33:15.960 --> 0:33:18.600
<v Speaker 2>you're listening, you're an amazing teacher. And I'm so sorry,

0:33:18.840 --> 0:33:20.960
<v Speaker 2>and you use the ten thousand dollars I gave you

0:33:21.040 --> 0:33:25.160
<v Speaker 2>in any way you want. Yeah, I went into debt

0:33:25.200 --> 0:33:32.200
<v Speaker 2>taking this class byway, yes, but yeah, what was it?

0:33:32.440 --> 0:33:33.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh what you're supposed to do?

0:33:33.320 --> 0:33:36.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I wonder what we're supposed to do for bit

0:33:36.480 --> 0:33:38.040
<v Speaker 3>by a rental snake?

0:33:38.840 --> 0:33:42.400
<v Speaker 2>An I get to the hospital like aced, Okay, of course,

0:33:42.680 --> 0:33:46.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's not information, but like that's what There's

0:33:46.040 --> 0:33:46.840
<v Speaker 2>nothing else we can do?

0:33:46.880 --> 0:33:50.480
<v Speaker 3>Put mud on it? What a shame? Really, So it's

0:33:50.520 --> 0:33:52.760
<v Speaker 3>really just kind of I wonder how much time you have.

0:33:53.080 --> 0:33:57.720
<v Speaker 3>That's a thirty minutes the idea, okay, thirty minutes.

0:33:57.800 --> 0:34:01.920
<v Speaker 2>The myth part is though, like it not everybody dies

0:34:01.920 --> 0:34:04.040
<v Speaker 2>from a rattlesnake bite. Like it's like, oh, if you're

0:34:04.120 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 2>like a baby or if you're a dog, okay, that's

0:34:07.400 --> 0:34:11.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna be rough. But like a full grown adult, you're like,

0:34:11.200 --> 0:34:13.359
<v Speaker 2>it's scary, Like you should get to a hospital, right,

0:34:13.440 --> 0:34:17.160
<v Speaker 2>like you're probably gonna be okay. Wow, is it taking

0:34:17.200 --> 0:34:18.520
<v Speaker 2>like forever together?

0:34:18.680 --> 0:34:19.840
<v Speaker 3>Okay? Right? Like days?

0:34:20.239 --> 0:34:20.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:34:21.160 --> 0:34:21.680
<v Speaker 3>Hours?

0:34:21.840 --> 0:34:22.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:34:22.320 --> 0:34:24.680
<v Speaker 3>Wow. So don't let your baby crawl through the forest.

0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:27.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, don't let your baby call through the forest. If

0:34:27.200 --> 0:34:30.200
<v Speaker 2>you got a little dog, just watch it, watch it, right,

0:34:30.800 --> 0:34:32.879
<v Speaker 2>because like the person when when I saw this person,

0:34:32.920 --> 0:34:34.440
<v Speaker 2>I was like, you should pick up your jack Russell

0:34:34.520 --> 0:34:36.520
<v Speaker 2>terrier or whatever. She was like, oh, thank you for

0:34:36.560 --> 0:34:38.240
<v Speaker 2>telling me, because like he would try to fight the snake.

0:34:38.320 --> 0:34:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh you know, like dogs are going to run up

0:34:40.480 --> 0:34:42.680
<v Speaker 2>and be like a toy.

0:34:43.040 --> 0:34:47.279
<v Speaker 3>I had. My friend's dog got stung by a what

0:34:47.320 --> 0:34:50.959
<v Speaker 3>are those the bees? The killer bees like African killer bees.

0:34:51.000 --> 0:34:51.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

0:34:52.080 --> 0:34:54.200
<v Speaker 3>And she was a tiny little lady. She got uh

0:34:54.560 --> 0:34:56.359
<v Speaker 3>so she was like in a coma for a minute.

0:34:56.440 --> 0:34:59.839
<v Speaker 3>Oh but survived. But yeah, dogs love to get into

0:34:59.840 --> 0:35:01.279
<v Speaker 3>these poisonous situations.

0:35:01.600 --> 0:35:03.560
<v Speaker 2>They do stupid.

0:35:03.920 --> 0:35:06.000
<v Speaker 3>Now, Okay, so we're trying to figure out what you

0:35:06.040 --> 0:35:07.280
<v Speaker 3>actually learned in this class.

0:35:07.360 --> 0:35:09.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, are you like impressed at all?

0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:12.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm like mild, I feel like this is information that

0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:15.440
<v Speaker 3>you probably could have just like totally listen to. That's

0:35:15.760 --> 0:35:20.560
<v Speaker 3>absolute shrieking. That's happening. Must be a rattle just biting

0:35:20.640 --> 0:35:26.719
<v Speaker 3>kids all over ground, one after another. We're getting back

0:35:26.760 --> 0:35:27.440
<v Speaker 3>to these rocks.

0:35:27.520 --> 0:35:29.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the rocks. I'm gonna go ahead and say, that's

0:35:29.800 --> 0:35:31.200
<v Speaker 2>maybe the thing I know least about.

0:35:34.840 --> 0:35:39.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't even know how to is this igneous igneous

0:35:39.640 --> 0:35:43.239
<v Speaker 3>and metamorphic rocks? What's the difference is? Can I guess

0:35:43.239 --> 0:35:47.680
<v Speaker 3>it's a metamorphic like from a lava? No? I mean.

0:35:49.560 --> 0:35:51.160
<v Speaker 2>There's a little bit of a cheat sheet on the back.

0:35:51.400 --> 0:35:59.040
<v Speaker 3>Okay the rocks, Yeah, primarily two times does that exact

0:36:00.600 --> 0:36:04.760
<v Speaker 3>quarts and horn Blentz does the listener liking this igneous rocks? Okay,

0:36:04.760 --> 0:36:07.080
<v Speaker 3>but it doesn't really tell you that, like what the

0:36:07.120 --> 0:36:10.120
<v Speaker 3>differences between these two rocks other than like it does

0:36:10.200 --> 0:36:12.560
<v Speaker 3>describe different ones. Like if I were to tell you

0:36:12.600 --> 0:36:15.960
<v Speaker 3>ask you what's a Wilson quartz d rite, which, yeah,

0:36:16.040 --> 0:36:17.239
<v Speaker 3>would you be able to tell me that it has

0:36:17.239 --> 0:36:19.720
<v Speaker 3>a grant like texture in the ground mineral is whitish

0:36:19.760 --> 0:36:25.040
<v Speaker 3>with small black crystals that ever across the learning the curriculum.

0:36:25.320 --> 0:36:27.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean it's like, here's what I'll say about

0:36:27.520 --> 0:36:30.360
<v Speaker 2>the structure of the class. It was there was a

0:36:30.360 --> 0:36:34.440
<v Speaker 2>lot of lecture, okay, and I loved everyone that came

0:36:34.440 --> 0:36:37.840
<v Speaker 2>in and lectured about their specific topic. Amazing. It was

0:36:37.920 --> 0:36:39.960
<v Speaker 2>also kind of the vibe of, like, you know, again

0:36:41.239 --> 0:36:44.360
<v Speaker 2>some older people that sometimes the people speaking maybe a

0:36:44.400 --> 0:36:45.960
<v Speaker 2>lot of their lecture would be taken up by like

0:36:46.000 --> 0:36:50.200
<v Speaker 2>setting up the PowerPoint. Oh interesting, saying there would be yes,

0:36:50.280 --> 0:36:54.880
<v Speaker 2>information given, but like it wasn't maybe people's strongest platform

0:36:54.920 --> 0:36:57.319
<v Speaker 2>in which to be giving said information, right, Like I

0:36:57.400 --> 0:36:59.040
<v Speaker 2>was getting more from like like I we'd be going

0:36:59.040 --> 0:37:00.600
<v Speaker 2>on the walks, I'd be talking one on one with

0:37:00.640 --> 0:37:01.719
<v Speaker 2>someone about something.

0:37:01.960 --> 0:37:03.200
<v Speaker 3>Okay, and that's where you're learning.

0:37:03.640 --> 0:37:06.480
<v Speaker 2>I also, it's been a while since I've been a student.

0:37:06.719 --> 0:37:09.600
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm. This is me just like defending myself giving discammers.

0:37:09.640 --> 0:37:11.520
<v Speaker 2>It's been a while since I've been a student, so

0:37:11.880 --> 0:37:15.520
<v Speaker 2>I historically I'm not that I don't take information the

0:37:15.520 --> 0:37:18.960
<v Speaker 2>best when I'm sort of sitting down and just like listening.

0:37:19.080 --> 0:37:22.920
<v Speaker 3>Just kind of a dry lecture on rocks that makes sense.

0:37:22.640 --> 0:37:24.560
<v Speaker 2>But there were some things that like really stuck out

0:37:24.600 --> 0:37:27.600
<v Speaker 2>to Like I am just more interested in like animals

0:37:27.640 --> 0:37:28.399
<v Speaker 2>and things like that.

0:37:28.640 --> 0:37:32.560
<v Speaker 3>Okay, right, rocks are hard to get excited about. Yeah,

0:37:32.680 --> 0:37:35.120
<v Speaker 3>I mean, of course there are people out there who

0:37:35.200 --> 0:37:38.960
<v Speaker 3>love rocks. They have the rocks tumblers. Yeah, they're touching rocks,

0:37:39.000 --> 0:37:40.000
<v Speaker 3>they're looking at them.

0:37:40.080 --> 0:37:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. And I have heard people in my life like

0:37:43.280 --> 0:37:45.760
<v Speaker 2>actually talk about rocks and I'm like, well, that's interesting,

0:37:45.760 --> 0:37:48.200
<v Speaker 2>Like you are so excited about that. That sounds interesting.

0:37:48.200 --> 0:37:50.120
<v Speaker 3>That's the best. I don't care what the topic is.

0:37:50.120 --> 0:37:51.840
<v Speaker 3>If the person's excited to be talking.

0:37:51.680 --> 0:37:54.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, then it's like that what I mean?

0:37:54.960 --> 0:37:58.000
<v Speaker 3>Anything? Right? How does that feel?

0:37:58.160 --> 0:37:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's amazing.

0:38:00.920 --> 0:38:03.440
<v Speaker 3>Well I should at least name the different things on here,

0:38:03.480 --> 0:38:09.680
<v Speaker 3>at least try. There's a granite pegmatite, a low grand diorite,

0:38:10.160 --> 0:38:13.120
<v Speaker 3>Wilson quartz diorite. Of course. Oh, I should be looking

0:38:13.120 --> 0:38:15.640
<v Speaker 3>at them and describing them. That's more exciting. A horn

0:38:15.680 --> 0:38:19.120
<v Speaker 3>blend gabbro, which is kind of a black and white specked,

0:38:20.080 --> 0:38:24.160
<v Speaker 3>a muscavite mica schist, which is more of a like

0:38:24.200 --> 0:38:28.279
<v Speaker 3>a gorgeous coppery with a white. That's probably the most

0:38:28.280 --> 0:38:32.040
<v Speaker 3>appealing rock on this page. There's a milky quartz, and

0:38:32.080 --> 0:38:35.480
<v Speaker 3>then there's a nice g N E I S S

0:38:35.520 --> 0:38:38.960
<v Speaker 3>which is kind of a granite rock. And then the

0:38:39.200 --> 0:38:41.799
<v Speaker 3>probably second favorite on here for me is the biotite

0:38:41.800 --> 0:38:46.800
<v Speaker 3>mica schist Oh wow, yeah or schist or botit mica sheast.

0:38:46.840 --> 0:38:49.120
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. It's Look how gorgeous this is. It's

0:38:49.120 --> 0:38:54.640
<v Speaker 3>a kind of a shimmering black onyx kind of volcanic.

0:38:54.680 --> 0:38:55.400
<v Speaker 3>I would say, I.

0:38:55.400 --> 0:38:57.359
<v Speaker 2>Would say volcanic as well. And you know it now

0:38:57.360 --> 0:39:00.000
<v Speaker 2>that you say that, I do think that is really

0:39:00.000 --> 0:39:02.560
<v Speaker 2>related to what the metamorphic is.

0:39:02.960 --> 0:39:05.920
<v Speaker 3>It is kind of a lava. I mean, am I

0:39:06.000 --> 0:39:08.600
<v Speaker 3>just thinking magma and I'm mad jumping to metamorphic?

0:39:08.960 --> 0:39:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Maybe I'm really excited to see, like how many like

0:39:14.040 --> 0:39:15.879
<v Speaker 2>what the Venn diagram is of Like people who listen

0:39:15.920 --> 0:39:19.080
<v Speaker 2>to the podcasts we are experts on ross always gonna

0:39:19.320 --> 0:39:21.279
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna have a lot to say about that.

0:39:22.000 --> 0:39:25.200
<v Speaker 3>It's always interesting to see somebody who yeah, and also

0:39:25.239 --> 0:39:27.640
<v Speaker 3>who's like listening to a podcast about someone who's talking

0:39:27.640 --> 0:39:30.520
<v Speaker 3>about the secret lives and Mormon wives and has a

0:39:30.640 --> 0:39:36.680
<v Speaker 3>decent knowledge of the Earth's minerals. People are dynamic. They're layers.

0:39:36.719 --> 0:39:38.400
<v Speaker 3>They are as layered as our planet.

0:39:38.440 --> 0:39:41.759
<v Speaker 2>They're as layered as well. These pieces of.

0:39:41.800 --> 0:39:45.600
<v Speaker 3>Rock as the horn Blend gabro. Yeah. Well, well, I'm

0:39:45.640 --> 0:39:47.640
<v Speaker 3>really excited to have this. It's very stylish. I feel

0:39:47.640 --> 0:39:48.760
<v Speaker 3>like it's really classy looking.

0:39:48.800 --> 0:39:49.839
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of cool. Yeah.

0:39:49.920 --> 0:39:52.839
<v Speaker 3>The font is good. Yeah. Oh, it was two dollars

0:39:53.160 --> 0:39:53.719
<v Speaker 3>I pay for this.

0:39:53.840 --> 0:39:54.719
<v Speaker 2>He did not pay for it.

0:39:54.760 --> 0:39:57.120
<v Speaker 3>So someone paid two dollars, probably in nineteen seventy eight.

0:39:57.280 --> 0:40:00.759
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yeah, so I do think these gluede on there

0:40:01.120 --> 0:40:02.719
<v Speaker 2>before I was borne.

0:40:03.680 --> 0:40:06.120
<v Speaker 3>Formation of the Earth. Yes, was kind of the We

0:40:06.160 --> 0:40:08.520
<v Speaker 3>had the Big Bang and then suddenly people were going

0:40:08.680 --> 0:40:11.200
<v Speaker 3>crazy with a glue gun, right, just putting rocks on

0:40:11.560 --> 0:40:15.239
<v Speaker 3>sheets for learning. Yeah. Okay, well, I think it's time

0:40:15.280 --> 0:40:17.759
<v Speaker 3>to play a game. Okay, We're gonna play a game

0:40:17.760 --> 0:40:20.480
<v Speaker 3>called Gift or a Curse. I need a number between

0:40:20.480 --> 0:40:21.239
<v Speaker 3>one and ten from you.

0:40:21.600 --> 0:40:21.839
<v Speaker 2>Five.

0:40:22.320 --> 0:40:25.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay. I have to do some like calculating right now

0:40:25.960 --> 0:40:28.880
<v Speaker 3>to get our game pieces. So right now, you can recommend,

0:40:29.000 --> 0:40:32.240
<v Speaker 3>you can promote, you can talk more on the subjects

0:40:32.280 --> 0:40:35.040
<v Speaker 3>of eating canyon, whatever you feel like. I'll be right back.

0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Okay, let's see, I'm gonna be in Portland, Oregon doing

0:40:40.680 --> 0:40:46.240
<v Speaker 2>my solo live show August thirty. First. That's about it

0:40:46.320 --> 0:40:48.560
<v Speaker 2>for me. I don't really have much else going on.

0:40:49.239 --> 0:40:52.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm so excited to be on this podcast.

0:40:52.520 --> 0:40:54.560
<v Speaker 3>Do you have anything to recommend? What have you enjoyed recently?

0:40:54.880 --> 0:41:01.640
<v Speaker 2>Mm? Okay. I'm currently reading Orlando by virgin Oh and

0:41:01.800 --> 0:41:04.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if I know I'm late to the

0:41:04.120 --> 0:41:08.600
<v Speaker 2>game sort of many regards, but I don't like. This

0:41:08.640 --> 0:41:09.840
<v Speaker 2>book is blowing my mind.

0:41:10.120 --> 0:41:12.560
<v Speaker 3>I've never read Virginia wolf I've obviously, like I studied

0:41:12.600 --> 0:41:15.279
<v Speaker 3>a little bit about her in college, but never not

0:41:15.360 --> 0:41:16.440
<v Speaker 3>even to the Lighthouse.

0:41:16.800 --> 0:41:19.840
<v Speaker 2>She is okay, I would recommend to the Lighthouse. She

0:41:20.160 --> 0:41:21.879
<v Speaker 2>is one of those writers that like you're like, oh,

0:41:21.920 --> 0:41:24.400
<v Speaker 2>for Daniel wolf everyone talks about and then you read

0:41:24.440 --> 0:41:26.560
<v Speaker 2>her and you're like, Okay, this is this is pretty awesome.

0:41:26.719 --> 0:41:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Like Orlando is like a queer trans It's about Virginia

0:41:33.800 --> 0:41:38.120
<v Speaker 2>Wolfe's friend who was a sort of like androgynist lesbian

0:41:38.480 --> 0:41:43.960
<v Speaker 2>that she became bessies with and later a romance published

0:41:44.040 --> 0:41:47.760
<v Speaker 2>letters between them. But she wrote this book about this person, Vita,

0:41:48.480 --> 0:41:52.920
<v Speaker 2>and so Orlando is about. It starts out as like

0:41:53.000 --> 0:41:57.160
<v Speaker 2>about a teenage boy who one day goes to sleep,

0:41:57.280 --> 0:42:00.600
<v Speaker 2>wakes up as a woman, spens a woman, and it's

0:42:00.640 --> 0:42:03.680
<v Speaker 2>written in this crazy way, like it's like the writing

0:42:03.760 --> 0:42:06.200
<v Speaker 2>is awesome and you're reading it and you're like, what.

0:42:06.360 --> 0:42:06.799
<v Speaker 3>Year did this?

0:42:06.920 --> 0:42:09.719
<v Speaker 2>God, this is crazy. And so it's like about this

0:42:09.760 --> 0:42:13.160
<v Speaker 2>person that you had this romance with, right, and so

0:42:13.200 --> 0:42:15.400
<v Speaker 2>it's blowing my mind lovely. I know my friend told

0:42:15.440 --> 0:42:16.839
<v Speaker 2>me about it. I was like, you're making that up,

0:42:16.880 --> 0:42:18.960
<v Speaker 2>no way. Virginia Wolf wrote that you're crazy.

0:42:19.200 --> 0:42:21.200
<v Speaker 3>It is interesting, like when you go back to old

0:42:21.320 --> 0:42:24.319
<v Speaker 3>art that like has been pushed into the shadows or

0:42:24.320 --> 0:42:26.759
<v Speaker 3>whatever because of its content, and then you read it

0:42:26.800 --> 0:42:29.640
<v Speaker 3>and it's like, oh, this feels so unbelievably contemporary because

0:42:29.680 --> 0:42:32.600
<v Speaker 3>that people were uncomfortable with the ideas at the time.

0:42:32.800 --> 0:42:34.839
<v Speaker 3>Totally so, but then you read it, it feels like, oh,

0:42:34.840 --> 0:42:37.000
<v Speaker 3>this could have been published within the last you know,

0:42:37.440 --> 0:42:38.239
<v Speaker 3>little while one.

0:42:38.239 --> 0:42:41.080
<v Speaker 2>Hundred and like no doubt, Like, I mean, Orlando is

0:42:41.120 --> 0:42:42.560
<v Speaker 2>kind of an extreme one, but I'm sure that there

0:42:42.560 --> 0:42:45.160
<v Speaker 2>are like English teachers who have been like teaching this

0:42:45.160 --> 0:42:49.759
<v Speaker 2>book and are like it's not gay, like and definitely

0:42:49.800 --> 0:42:51.440
<v Speaker 2>it's a normal, normal book.

0:42:52.800 --> 0:42:55.360
<v Speaker 3>If you take anything away from Orlando it's just a

0:42:55.480 --> 0:43:02.400
<v Speaker 3>nice friendship. It's fantasy. I can tell you that much. Okay,

0:43:02.440 --> 0:43:03.440
<v Speaker 3>that's a great recommendation.

0:43:03.520 --> 0:43:05.680
<v Speaker 2>I love a book recommendation, so I would recommend that

0:43:05.719 --> 0:43:06.439
<v Speaker 2>it's really fun.

0:43:06.640 --> 0:43:10.120
<v Speaker 3>Okay, wonderful. What am I? Oh, do you know what

0:43:10.160 --> 0:43:12.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna My sister just started a business. I'm going

0:43:12.120 --> 0:43:14.360
<v Speaker 3>to promote it. I'm going to use my platform to

<v Speaker 3>my own, never will, so I can speak expertly on

0:43:31.040 --> 0:43:34.400
<v Speaker 3>this topic. Yeah, it's some sort of device or no,

0:43:34.440 --> 0:43:37.600
<v Speaker 3>it's a clothing that the baby can wear. And my

0:43:37.680 --> 0:43:40.239
<v Speaker 3>sister has a mother of three, has figured out what

0:43:40.280 --> 0:43:42.520

<v Speaker 2>You're using for for the first time ever for good? Yeah, wow,

0:43:56.960 --> 0:43:57.799
<v Speaker 2>and I'm here for it.

0:43:58.880 --> 0:43:58.960
<v Speaker 1>No.

0:43:59.080 --> 0:44:01.160
<v Speaker 3>I love my sister, so we've got to support that

0:44:01.160 --> 0:44:04.320
<v Speaker 3>that's awesome. That's the big recommendation. I hope I explained

0:44:04.320 --> 0:44:08.319
<v Speaker 3>that in some way or mysteriously enough that the listener's like, well,

0:44:08.320 --> 0:44:09.640
<v Speaker 3>I've got to get some baby clothes.

0:44:09.760 --> 0:44:12.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm interested. I mean, it's always interesting when someone who

0:44:12.920 --> 0:44:16.759
<v Speaker 2>with such experience if something is making a product for it,

0:44:16.760 --> 0:44:18.880
<v Speaker 2>because I'm like, you literally know what.

0:44:19.040 --> 0:44:21.279
<v Speaker 3>Yes, you were like, oh, I'm fed up with not

0:44:21.400 --> 0:44:24.879
<v Speaker 3>having this product. That's like the best kind of thing. Yes, yes,

0:44:25.040 --> 0:44:27.280
<v Speaker 3>I wonder what that'll be for me. What's my big invention?

0:44:27.600 --> 0:44:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Hmmm?

0:44:28.719 --> 0:44:34.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh god, hm, dentist open on Sundays. Oh yeah, it's

0:44:34.200 --> 0:44:38.280
<v Speaker 3>not a bad idea. No, that's just basically a dentist.

0:44:38.440 --> 0:44:39.840
<v Speaker 3>But it's open on Sunday.

0:44:40.239 --> 0:44:41.680
<v Speaker 2>It could be called Sunday Dentists.

0:44:43.280 --> 0:44:45.719
<v Speaker 3>That feels like something that could happen. That's within the

0:44:45.760 --> 0:44:48.200
<v Speaker 3>realm of possibility. We've got to get into the game.

0:44:48.400 --> 0:44:52.520
<v Speaker 3>My God, gift or a curse. I'm gonna name three things.

0:44:52.600 --> 0:44:54.000
<v Speaker 3>You're gonna tell me if there are a gift or

0:44:54.040 --> 0:44:56.759
<v Speaker 3>a curse and why, and then I'll tell you if

0:44:56.760 --> 0:44:59.279
<v Speaker 3>you're right or wrong, because there are correct answers. Trans

0:44:59.400 --> 0:45:03.600
<v Speaker 3>lightly be careful. Oh number one, this is from a

0:45:03.600 --> 0:45:07.239
<v Speaker 3>listener named Emma Lake, gift or a curse electrical outlets

0:45:07.280 --> 0:45:10.360
<v Speaker 3>with USB ports in them.

0:45:10.440 --> 0:45:14.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna say curse, and I'm gonna say curse because

0:45:15.640 --> 0:45:20.040
<v Speaker 2>lately the Apple or I don't know who's controlling this,

0:45:20.440 --> 0:45:23.920
<v Speaker 2>they're phasing out USB ports. That one time it was

0:45:23.960 --> 0:45:27.080
<v Speaker 2>like the thing you needed for everything. And now I

0:45:27.160 --> 0:45:29.320
<v Speaker 2>get a phone charger and it's got the other kind

0:45:29.360 --> 0:45:29.560
<v Speaker 2>in it.

0:45:29.920 --> 0:45:36.200
<v Speaker 3>Uh, maybe it's called the lightning no USBC, Yes that one.

0:45:36.280 --> 0:45:38.799
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So does that still count about what we're talking about,

0:45:38.800 --> 0:45:42.239
<v Speaker 2>because I'm thinking the USPN we're talking tradition. Yeah, yeah,

0:45:42.360 --> 0:45:44.319
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's been around for a couple decades. Like

0:45:44.440 --> 0:45:46.319
<v Speaker 2>I was just in the airport and I was stuck

0:45:46.320 --> 0:45:48.960
<v Speaker 2>there because my flight kept getting delayed, and I own

0:45:49.120 --> 0:45:52.279
<v Speaker 2>this was my fault, ultimately, but I only had the

0:45:52.440 --> 0:45:57.840
<v Speaker 2>like tiny USBC or at the end of my phone charger,

0:45:57.880 --> 0:45:59.799
<v Speaker 2>Like I didn't have the part that plugs into the wall,

0:46:00.600 --> 0:46:03.640
<v Speaker 2>and all the things around me had the wall plug

0:46:03.760 --> 0:46:07.200
<v Speaker 2>and then the big USB and I had to go

0:46:07.239 --> 0:46:09.440
<v Speaker 2>freaking buy a freaking dapter.

0:46:09.600 --> 0:46:12.040
<v Speaker 3>Oh that's my worst nightmare, buying electronics at the airport.

0:46:12.040 --> 0:46:13.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, it was so stupid.

0:46:13.840 --> 0:46:15.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh and it would cost one thousand dollars.

0:46:16.320 --> 0:46:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Truly, I can't even think about it. But it was

0:46:18.640 --> 0:46:21.320
<v Speaker 2>like so I was like, oh, like in a different

0:46:21.440 --> 0:46:23.600
<v Speaker 2>moment in time, this would have been oh great, there's

0:46:23.600 --> 0:46:25.840
<v Speaker 2>a USB thing, But I'm like, it's just going to

0:46:25.880 --> 0:46:26.960
<v Speaker 2>get outdated soon.

0:46:27.040 --> 0:46:31.799
<v Speaker 3>Right, right, wrong, Okay, gift, absolutely a gift. I mean,

0:46:32.160 --> 0:46:36.160
<v Speaker 3>first of all, still mildly convenient. Second of all, their retro,

0:46:36.280 --> 0:46:39.839
<v Speaker 3>their chic, their nostalgic. We're all think we're looking at

0:46:39.840 --> 0:46:41.600
<v Speaker 3>those in ten years and thinking, well, I used to

0:46:41.600 --> 0:46:43.760
<v Speaker 3>be able to use that back when things were better,

0:46:43.920 --> 0:46:46.960
<v Speaker 3>because things will get worse, yeah, yeah, as they continue

0:46:47.000 --> 0:46:50.280
<v Speaker 3>to just slide downhill. Yeah, but we'll be in the airport,

0:46:50.320 --> 0:46:54.160
<v Speaker 3>we'll be looking at the USB port and thinking life

0:46:54.280 --> 0:46:57.560
<v Speaker 3>was so much simpler when I had the clunky, square

0:46:57.560 --> 0:47:01.319
<v Speaker 3>shaped USB, and you'll be able to just kind of

0:47:01.360 --> 0:47:04.280
<v Speaker 3>lose yourself at the airport or in a hotel room.

0:47:06.160 --> 0:47:08.280
<v Speaker 2>So you're saying I should have had a better attitude.

0:47:08.360 --> 0:47:10.680
<v Speaker 2>You should have I should have looked at that and

0:47:10.719 --> 0:47:15.240
<v Speaker 2>said I miss that happily.

0:47:15.600 --> 0:47:18.960
<v Speaker 3>Yes, exactly exactly. We've got to appreciate them while they're

0:47:19.000 --> 0:47:22.399
<v Speaker 3>being phased out. And then appreciate them after when they're

0:47:22.560 --> 0:47:25.520
<v Speaker 3>obsolete and kind of taking up space that could be

0:47:25.600 --> 0:47:28.719
<v Speaker 3>used in better ways. Okay, why are we changing the

0:47:28.840 --> 0:47:31.360
<v Speaker 3>thing constantly? I don't doesn't it don't feel like it

0:47:31.360 --> 0:47:32.160
<v Speaker 3>does a better job.

0:47:32.440 --> 0:47:34.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh, it's taking our money.

0:47:34.920 --> 0:47:37.360
<v Speaker 3>It's just it feels like it charges about the same.

0:47:37.440 --> 0:47:40.680
<v Speaker 2>Why did they take the CD poor out of laptops?

0:47:41.000 --> 0:47:44.080
<v Speaker 3>They're going nuts? Well, I will say, I finally got

0:47:44.080 --> 0:47:46.400
<v Speaker 3>a new laptop and this has what's called the mag safe,

0:47:46.400 --> 0:47:48.799
<v Speaker 3>which is the magnet one like that. I love that

0:47:48.880 --> 0:47:51.400
<v Speaker 3>so like if it gets pulled, it doesn't like destroy

0:47:51.440 --> 0:47:51.920
<v Speaker 3>the computer.

0:47:52.160 --> 0:47:54.040
<v Speaker 2>That was a smart I know they did away with

0:47:54.040 --> 0:47:54.839
<v Speaker 2>that and they're bringing it back.

0:47:55.000 --> 0:47:58.040
<v Speaker 3>Yes, they kind of learned their lesson. I think, well

0:47:58.120 --> 0:47:59.320
<v Speaker 3>then it's nice to see.

0:47:59.160 --> 0:48:01.359
<v Speaker 2>A corporation learn a less Now I'm coveting the new thing.

0:48:01.400 --> 0:48:03.759
<v Speaker 2>Now I'm looking at it and I kind of want that.

0:48:03.800 --> 0:48:05.160
<v Speaker 3>I'm essentially driving a Ferrari.

0:48:06.440 --> 0:48:08.480
<v Speaker 2>It's driving me crazy.

0:48:08.880 --> 0:48:10.640
<v Speaker 3>The mag safe is the ultimate one. That's how it

0:48:10.640 --> 0:48:13.080
<v Speaker 3>should be for everybody. Yeah, for every port. Let's get

0:48:13.120 --> 0:48:16.520
<v Speaker 3>into that. Let's get that in places where we need them. Yeah, okay,

0:48:16.560 --> 0:48:18.200
<v Speaker 3>so you did get no point?

0:48:18.320 --> 0:48:19.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, which so I'm losing.

0:48:20.000 --> 0:48:21.920
<v Speaker 3>The audience is upset.

0:48:22.000 --> 0:48:22.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:48:22.440 --> 0:48:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Number two, This is from my listener named Anna Gift

0:48:25.040 --> 0:48:27.239
<v Speaker 3>or a curse clapping at the end of a movie.

0:48:27.960 --> 0:48:31.719
<v Speaker 2>Gift and why I know that I'm going to get

0:48:31.719 --> 0:48:36.200
<v Speaker 2>this one wrong. Gift because I don't know. You've experienced

0:48:36.200 --> 0:48:38.480
<v Speaker 2>something with the community of people that you're now bonded

0:48:38.520 --> 0:48:40.600
<v Speaker 2>to forever, and you're showing that you were all in

0:48:40.640 --> 0:48:42.839
<v Speaker 2>it together and appreciating the thing you just saw. Oh

0:48:42.880 --> 0:48:48.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, Sorry, that's a horrible night at the movie.

0:48:48.640 --> 0:48:51.720
<v Speaker 2>It's so fun. But no, you're gonna say it's weird

0:48:51.800 --> 0:48:53.480
<v Speaker 2>vibe ej.

0:48:54.680 --> 0:48:58.080
<v Speaker 3>It's a gift. You got it right. Of course, who

0:48:58.120 --> 0:48:59.800
<v Speaker 3>are we to say that not to clap at the

0:48:59.880 --> 0:49:02.960
<v Speaker 3>end of a movie. We're all erupting. We're feeling like

0:49:03.040 --> 0:49:06.440
<v Speaker 3>we're feeling renewed and ready to get back out in

0:49:06.520 --> 0:49:09.239
<v Speaker 3>life and take whatever we took from the movie. Yeah,

0:49:09.440 --> 0:49:13.000
<v Speaker 3>we're stronger because of it. We're growing together.

0:49:13.239 --> 0:49:13.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:49:13.719 --> 0:49:16.279
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if I had one complaint, okay, it's so

0:49:16.320 --> 0:49:19.440
<v Speaker 3>we would wait until the bear the credits have completely rolled,

0:49:19.920 --> 0:49:22.880
<v Speaker 3>where you've sat through fifteen minutes of credits silently, okay,

0:49:23.000 --> 0:49:24.520
<v Speaker 3>then erupt into applause.

0:49:24.560 --> 0:49:27.200
<v Speaker 2>So you're the only one left in the theater clapping

0:49:27.239 --> 0:49:27.760
<v Speaker 2>by yourself.

0:49:27.760 --> 0:49:29.520
<v Speaker 3>So what I'm yeah, basically saying is I want it

0:49:29.520 --> 0:49:32.520
<v Speaker 3>to be a solo experience and I want the theater

0:49:32.600 --> 0:49:34.440
<v Speaker 3>employees to be uneasy.

0:49:34.719 --> 0:49:37.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh right, they're yeah, they're cleaning up around you. They're like,

0:49:37.440 --> 0:49:38.759
<v Speaker 2>please please leave.

0:49:39.280 --> 0:49:43.360
<v Speaker 3>And you're standing ovation, standing up and cheering.

0:49:43.440 --> 0:49:46.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, No, I do think it is a nice thing,

0:49:47.000 --> 0:49:50.239
<v Speaker 2>although I do like I feel like, I mean, I'm

0:49:50.280 --> 0:49:51.400
<v Speaker 2>my best self at the movies.

0:49:51.719 --> 0:49:53.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh in what way?

0:49:53.520 --> 0:49:56.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean? I'm just so happy. Oh I love going

0:49:56.800 --> 0:50:00.680
<v Speaker 2>to the movies, and lately I've be come in AMC

0:50:00.800 --> 0:50:01.200
<v Speaker 2>a lister.

0:50:01.480 --> 0:50:04.040
<v Speaker 3>I am too. Okay, okay, so I have you know,

0:50:04.120 --> 0:50:05.719
<v Speaker 3>it has its ups and downs, and I do feel

0:50:05.719 --> 0:50:08.399
<v Speaker 3>like I'm being blackmailed. Oh yeah, totally because if you

0:50:08.400 --> 0:50:10.160
<v Speaker 3>you know, if you cancel, they say, well, you can't

0:50:10.200 --> 0:50:12.160
<v Speaker 3>sign up for another six months, which feels to me.

0:50:12.320 --> 0:50:13.480
<v Speaker 2>It's strange illegal.

0:50:13.640 --> 0:50:15.919
<v Speaker 3>It does. It's not illegal apparently, but it does seem

0:50:15.920 --> 0:50:19.480
<v Speaker 3>a little like, guys, you'll kill your family member, right.

0:50:19.440 --> 0:50:22.040
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of like, yeah, are you allowed to tell

0:50:22.080 --> 0:50:23.719
<v Speaker 2>me that I'm not supposed to do that?

0:50:23.800 --> 0:50:24.080
<v Speaker 3>Right?

0:50:24.600 --> 0:50:26.160
<v Speaker 2>I know. I had a friend that canceled and she

0:50:26.239 --> 0:50:29.120
<v Speaker 2>does regret it everything because she's trapped. Yeah, and it's like, oh,

0:50:29.160 --> 0:50:31.400
<v Speaker 2>let's go to the movies, and it's like, well, Sophie can't,

0:50:32.600 --> 0:50:36.480
<v Speaker 2>She's legally not allowed. I Yeah. So I have been

0:50:36.480 --> 0:50:38.279
<v Speaker 2>going to see just so many more movies since becoming

0:50:38.320 --> 0:50:42.480
<v Speaker 2>an a lister, and I do feel like it's opened

0:50:42.520 --> 0:50:44.680
<v Speaker 2>up this side of me that's like I'll go see

0:50:45.000 --> 0:50:48.040
<v Speaker 2>anything basically like it's free. Of course it's not.

0:50:48.560 --> 0:50:49.880
<v Speaker 3>You want to get your money's for us.

0:50:49.920 --> 0:50:53.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. And so even when I've seen maybe the worst

0:50:53.280 --> 0:50:56.120
<v Speaker 2>movie I've ever seen in my life, i still feel

0:50:56.160 --> 0:51:00.720
<v Speaker 2>the need to clap because I'm like because I'm just like, woo,

0:51:00.760 --> 0:51:04.160
<v Speaker 2>we did it like you like and here we are, Like,

0:51:04.640 --> 0:51:09.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm so jovial. It's crazy. What's the last movie you saw?

0:51:09.640 --> 0:51:12.640
<v Speaker 2>The last one I saw was Twisters? Oh that's that

0:51:12.640 --> 0:51:13.879
<v Speaker 2>feels like a clapping At the end.

0:51:13.800 --> 0:51:14.360
<v Speaker 3>Of the movie.

0:51:14.440 --> 0:51:16.759
<v Speaker 2>I was like, look at us, you know, sure that

0:51:16.920 --> 0:51:17.800
<v Speaker 2>was that happened.

0:51:18.600 --> 0:51:22.560
<v Speaker 3>There were the Twisters, there was the Yeah. I don't

0:51:22.680 --> 0:51:24.520
<v Speaker 3>remember that much else from it. I just remember a

0:51:24.520 --> 0:51:26.080
<v Speaker 3>lot of jarring music cues.

0:51:26.280 --> 0:51:28.360
<v Speaker 2>The music. I mean, that was awesome.

0:51:28.920 --> 0:51:33.880
<v Speaker 3>That was crazy. Oh so you haven't seen Cuckoo. No, okay,

0:51:34.480 --> 0:51:36.680
<v Speaker 3>I would love to talk to somebody about Cuckoo. I

0:51:36.680 --> 0:51:37.960
<v Speaker 3>don't really want to see Cuckoo.

0:51:37.960 --> 0:51:38.640
<v Speaker 2>That's on my list.

0:51:38.840 --> 0:51:42.680
<v Speaker 3>I will say to anyone listening, absolutely read the Wikipedia

0:51:42.680 --> 0:51:46.160
<v Speaker 3>plot summary before going to see the movie. Why. I

0:51:46.200 --> 0:51:47.719
<v Speaker 3>may have fallen asleep at some point, but there was

0:51:47.719 --> 0:51:50.480
<v Speaker 3>a point where it's like, what happened?

0:51:50.560 --> 0:51:51.160
<v Speaker 2>Confusing?

0:51:51.480 --> 0:51:54.360
<v Speaker 3>What is the goal for anyone in this movie?

0:51:54.520 --> 0:51:56.759
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so if you got confused, definitely I'm going to

0:51:56.800 --> 0:51:57.360
<v Speaker 2>be confused.

0:51:57.800 --> 0:52:01.080
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yeah, you know. I mean we are intelligence is

0:52:01.600 --> 0:52:07.560
<v Speaker 3>the vast Gulf. I think it's just like an unbelievably

0:52:07.600 --> 0:52:12.120
<v Speaker 3>convoluted bizarre It's like it is a bizarre movie. But

0:52:12.120 --> 0:52:13.360
<v Speaker 3>then it gets a point where it's like, well, I

0:52:13.400 --> 0:52:16.440
<v Speaker 3>don't care, but get you get spooked.

0:52:16.920 --> 0:52:21.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay, there's some some frights and something bad. It sounds bad.

0:52:22.080 --> 0:52:25.319
<v Speaker 3>You'll you'll probably scream a little bit or jump. Okay,

0:52:25.480 --> 0:52:29.560
<v Speaker 3>there's a scary looking thing, so that's probably worth saying.

0:52:30.160 --> 0:52:34.560
<v Speaker 3>But just try not to care. That's what I'll say.

0:52:34.600 --> 0:52:38.120
<v Speaker 2>Okay, easy, easy, I don't care about anything.

0:52:39.960 --> 0:52:42.120
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so now you've gotten one out of two, which

0:52:42.160 --> 0:52:42.880
<v Speaker 3>is incredible.

0:52:43.040 --> 0:52:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Thank you.

0:52:43.760 --> 0:52:47.640
<v Speaker 3>This is. Finally, the third suggestion is from someone named Gibson,

0:52:48.480 --> 0:52:51.200
<v Speaker 3>and it says gift or a curse people who send

0:52:51.239 --> 0:52:54.120
<v Speaker 3>you their New York Times wordal results.

0:52:55.760 --> 0:52:59.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know that's never happened to me. I

0:52:59.520 --> 0:53:03.080
<v Speaker 2>don't really know what that says about anything, but I

0:53:03.080 --> 0:53:07.799
<v Speaker 2>would say I feel like this being sent in tells

0:53:07.840 --> 0:53:10.759
<v Speaker 2>me it's a curse. Okay, right, just something about I'm like,

0:53:10.920 --> 0:53:13.160
<v Speaker 2>it sounds like you're it sounds like Gibson's annoyed. I

0:53:13.160 --> 0:53:15.799
<v Speaker 2>don't know, like maybe that's a reach, but I'm kind

0:53:15.800 --> 0:53:18.200
<v Speaker 2>of like it sounds like they're like, enough.

0:53:19.880 --> 0:53:23.839
<v Speaker 3>I'm taking this to a public may like, stop doing this.

0:53:24.320 --> 0:53:28.400
<v Speaker 3>I will humiliate you. Yeah, okay, so you've never experienced it.

0:53:28.640 --> 0:53:30.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, But I also feel like the vibe of, like

0:53:31.280 --> 0:53:35.520
<v Speaker 2>unprompted sending someone a score on anything you're like a

0:53:35.600 --> 0:53:38.440
<v Speaker 2>result in this way feels kind of like, I mean,

0:53:38.480 --> 0:53:40.839
<v Speaker 2>I guess what's wrong with sharing your accomplishments if you're

0:53:40.840 --> 0:53:44.080
<v Speaker 2>proud of it. I maybe we should destigmatize that. I

0:53:44.080 --> 0:53:47.000
<v Speaker 2>should destigmatize that. But I am like, it does feel

0:53:47.120 --> 0:53:50.359
<v Speaker 2>like you're forcing me to react, Like you're looking for

0:53:50.480 --> 0:53:52.200
<v Speaker 2>a reaction and you want it to be.

0:53:52.200 --> 0:53:58.520
<v Speaker 3>Good job, honey, you're right. Curse okay, And for me

0:53:58.600 --> 0:54:01.160
<v Speaker 3>this is a curse because I think word's sucks. Yeah.

0:54:01.239 --> 0:54:02.080
<v Speaker 3>Have you played wordle?

0:54:02.400 --> 0:54:03.719
<v Speaker 2>I literally never have.

0:54:04.120 --> 0:54:06.719
<v Speaker 3>It's so much a guessing game. Yeah. I don't like

0:54:06.760 --> 0:54:09.440
<v Speaker 3>a guessing I need a little bit more logic. It's

0:54:09.480 --> 0:54:12.799
<v Speaker 3>basically I think it's like five letters or something. I

0:54:12.800 --> 0:54:15.080
<v Speaker 3>could guess what is the five So there's a there

0:54:15.200 --> 0:54:17.840
<v Speaker 3>is too much of an element of guessing. Yeah, I

0:54:17.880 --> 0:54:21.000
<v Speaker 3>know there's strategy involved blah blah blah, but I need

0:54:21.040 --> 0:54:22.759
<v Speaker 3>for a moment one to be able to say I

0:54:22.760 --> 0:54:25.440
<v Speaker 3>can think about this and get the answer rather than

0:54:25.480 --> 0:54:30.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna give a word that has the letters that

0:54:30.760 --> 0:54:32.200
<v Speaker 3>uppear most often? Who cares?

0:54:32.360 --> 0:54:34.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know. And I feel like the way that

0:54:34.400 --> 0:54:36.399
<v Speaker 2>it is talked about is like a sort of sort

0:54:36.440 --> 0:54:39.839
<v Speaker 2>of like cultural like it's like, oh, I'm like, I'm

0:54:39.920 --> 0:54:42.800
<v Speaker 2>so smart if you're doing it well, Like I really

0:54:42.840 --> 0:54:46.479
<v Speaker 2>like attributing it to a certain but what you're saying

0:54:46.560 --> 0:54:50.720
<v Speaker 2>is true. It's like, I mean, is it about being smarter?

0:54:51.000 --> 0:54:52.600
<v Speaker 3>It sounds like someone's a little lucky.

0:54:52.719 --> 0:54:54.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, I think sorry, But like I mean, which

0:54:54.760 --> 0:54:55.600
<v Speaker 2>is fine, like good to.

0:54:55.560 --> 0:54:57.160
<v Speaker 3>Be lucky if God's watching out for you.

0:54:57.360 --> 0:55:00.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's great, but like it's not. I mean, there's

0:55:00.280 --> 0:55:03.279
<v Speaker 2>other ways to demonstrate in tellidence, you know, send me

0:55:03.320 --> 0:55:05.399
<v Speaker 2>a fact, send me a fact.

0:55:05.520 --> 0:55:08.080
<v Speaker 3>I would love for friends to just send me fact.

0:55:08.520 --> 0:55:10.400
<v Speaker 3>That's actually not a bad idea.

0:55:10.840 --> 0:55:12.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, just like fact sharing.

0:55:12.400 --> 0:55:14.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, to just suddenly get a like a surprise piece

0:55:14.800 --> 0:55:15.400
<v Speaker 3>of information.

0:55:15.680 --> 0:55:18.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean I have my friends and I At

0:55:18.840 --> 0:55:22.000
<v Speaker 2>one point we're doing the like a PowerPoint thing where

0:55:22.040 --> 0:55:25.640
<v Speaker 2>we were like giving each other presentations on PowerPoint.

0:55:25.960 --> 0:55:27.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh, this is great.

0:55:27.120 --> 0:55:29.680
<v Speaker 2>About a subject, which I think. I'm like, okay, wait,

0:55:29.719 --> 0:55:31.600
<v Speaker 2>I should do that again. That's so fun. But it

0:55:31.640 --> 0:55:33.120
<v Speaker 2>is kind of like, okay, what do you know a

0:55:33.120 --> 0:55:36.200
<v Speaker 2>lot about right now? It's like you have the floor,

0:55:36.239 --> 0:55:37.080
<v Speaker 2>like teach us something.

0:55:37.440 --> 0:55:39.440
<v Speaker 3>Do you remember what you taught about?

0:55:40.160 --> 0:55:44.799
<v Speaker 2>Okay, honestly it was about the Bachelor, but it was

0:55:45.560 --> 0:55:47.600
<v Speaker 2>this was a specific one. It was sort of Bachelor.

0:55:48.400 --> 0:55:50.480
<v Speaker 2>It was there was a bachelor tilt to it because

0:55:50.520 --> 0:55:53.280
<v Speaker 2>we were kind of like teaching each other about different Okay,

0:55:53.320 --> 0:55:55.920
<v Speaker 2>but you could do it with any subjects.

0:55:55.520 --> 0:55:57.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, of course. Yeah, I mean because you kind of

0:55:57.840 --> 0:56:00.000
<v Speaker 3>stopped giving reports after elementary school.

0:56:00.200 --> 0:56:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but it's like, come on, I mean, are we

0:56:02.239 --> 0:56:03.360
<v Speaker 2>not all lifelong learners.

0:56:03.480 --> 0:56:06.799
<v Speaker 3>Yes, we're trying. We're absolutely trying, right, and to have

0:56:06.880 --> 0:56:09.480
<v Speaker 3>the chance to give a report so fine. Oh that

0:56:09.520 --> 0:56:10.480
<v Speaker 3>sounds wonderful to me.

0:56:10.800 --> 0:56:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:56:11.719 --> 0:56:14.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I'm trying to think. I feel like reports I

0:56:14.239 --> 0:56:17.800
<v Speaker 3>gave in elementary school were on mummies. Oh is it

0:56:17.880 --> 0:56:18.400
<v Speaker 3>the ocean?

0:56:18.920 --> 0:56:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Very cool?

0:56:20.280 --> 0:56:22.480
<v Speaker 3>Uh? That's those are the two I can remember. Oh

0:56:22.480 --> 0:56:25.680
<v Speaker 3>and I gave no. I think I did a state

0:56:25.719 --> 0:56:26.640
<v Speaker 3>report on Nevada.

0:56:27.239 --> 0:56:29.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh nice. My state was Georgia. Georgia.

0:56:29.840 --> 0:56:30.560
<v Speaker 3>Did you get to pick?

0:56:32.200 --> 0:56:34.360
<v Speaker 2>I think so, I'm like, why did I pick Georgia?

0:56:34.440 --> 0:56:36.360
<v Speaker 2>That maybe they just designed to do it.

0:56:36.760 --> 0:56:38.640
<v Speaker 3>I feel like a lot of what happened with us

0:56:38.680 --> 0:56:42.600
<v Speaker 3>picking states was people really either went for one with

0:56:42.920 --> 0:56:46.560
<v Speaker 3>Disney property, okay, or like a food that they could

0:56:46.600 --> 0:56:47.760
<v Speaker 3>like give as a sample.

0:56:48.440 --> 0:56:51.879
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, well, I mean freaking that's so cool, right,

0:56:52.680 --> 0:56:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't know, barbecue Memphis?

0:56:55.520 --> 0:56:56.280
<v Speaker 3>Did you give peaches?

0:56:56.400 --> 0:56:57.200
<v Speaker 2>That's not his state?

0:56:57.320 --> 0:56:57.680
<v Speaker 3>Georgia?

0:56:58.640 --> 0:57:03.600
<v Speaker 2>No A. The assignment was you actually wrote a song

0:57:03.640 --> 0:57:05.600
<v Speaker 2>about it and then you performed it at a recital.

0:57:05.760 --> 0:57:08.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh my, and I will say one of the this

0:57:08.960 --> 0:57:10.759
<v Speaker 2>was fifth grade. One of the fifth grade teachers pulled

0:57:10.760 --> 0:57:13.080
<v Speaker 2>me aside and said, your song is the best song.

0:57:13.680 --> 0:57:15.879
<v Speaker 3>Do you remember anything about it? Can you say any

0:57:15.920 --> 0:57:16.200
<v Speaker 3>of it?

0:57:16.200 --> 0:57:19.480
<v Speaker 2>It was to the tune of my Favorite Things, Like

0:57:19.520 --> 0:57:22.960
<v Speaker 2>they all like the tune of writing. Oh my god,

0:57:22.960 --> 0:57:27.480
<v Speaker 2>it's actually so embarrassing because obviously I was obsessed with

0:57:27.520 --> 0:57:29.280
<v Speaker 2>like the fact that I was like, I don't know,

0:57:29.400 --> 0:57:31.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a good singer, Like I had never been

0:57:31.440 --> 0:57:34.440
<v Speaker 2>a good singer. But I was like, I sound amazing.

0:57:35.000 --> 0:57:38.800
<v Speaker 2>And of course it was like I was very like

0:57:38.880 --> 0:57:42.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm political. I grew up in Portland, Oregon, so

0:57:42.680 --> 0:57:44.400
<v Speaker 2>of course I had this like also at the time,

0:57:44.440 --> 0:57:48.840
<v Speaker 2>like big ego about like being like like or like progressive,

0:57:49.680 --> 0:57:51.240
<v Speaker 2>and so then it's like this weird thing where I

0:57:51.280 --> 0:57:54.320
<v Speaker 2>was like, oh, I'm doing Georgia and like the South.

0:57:54.560 --> 0:57:57.000
<v Speaker 2>At all I know is that that is there's a

0:57:57.000 --> 0:58:00.760
<v Speaker 2>lot of complicated stuff, and it's like okay, as if

0:58:00.800 --> 0:58:04.360
<v Speaker 2>there's not in Portland, organ but whatever. And I and

0:58:04.440 --> 0:58:08.200
<v Speaker 2>so my song was like really about like racism.

0:58:08.000 --> 0:58:12.400
<v Speaker 3>Wow, a racist parent. They're not racist, but uh, pardy

0:58:12.440 --> 0:58:16.720
<v Speaker 3>about racism? Yeah, set to the tune of my Favorite Things. Yeah, wow,

0:58:16.800 --> 0:58:18.280
<v Speaker 3>I cannot imagine.

0:58:18.400 --> 0:58:20.760
<v Speaker 2>It was there was like mention of peaches. There was mention,

0:58:20.840 --> 0:58:22.880
<v Speaker 2>but it was like it was like trying to do

0:58:22.920 --> 0:58:25.200
<v Speaker 2>like a political thing, which, of course it's like all

0:58:25.280 --> 0:58:27.680
<v Speaker 2>very classical, like of course this like fifth grade teacher

0:58:27.680 --> 0:58:30.960
<v Speaker 2>in Portland was like, sweetie, you're really telling the truth here.

0:58:31.840 --> 0:58:34.760
<v Speaker 2>It's like, don't let me have that platform?

0:58:34.800 --> 0:58:37.600
<v Speaker 3>Like does video exist?

0:58:38.400 --> 0:58:38.880
<v Speaker 2>No? I don't know.

0:58:39.040 --> 0:58:42.160
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if it's an audio recording, yeah, I know,

0:58:42.360 --> 0:58:43.280
<v Speaker 3>I should record it now.

0:58:43.400 --> 0:58:45.800
<v Speaker 2>I wish. And I'm sure that if I, like, if

0:58:45.800 --> 0:58:47.520
<v Speaker 2>I brought if I reminded my parents of this, I'm

0:58:47.560 --> 0:58:49.960
<v Speaker 2>sure they would be like, honey, it was. It was

0:58:49.960 --> 0:58:53.440
<v Speaker 2>pretty amazing. Exactly what's wrong with me?

0:58:54.280 --> 0:58:56.200
<v Speaker 3>I need you get to get into the studio and

0:58:56.280 --> 0:58:59.160
<v Speaker 3>record this for people. I mean maybe that's what the

0:58:59.160 --> 0:59:00.000
<v Speaker 3>country needs right now.

0:59:00.760 --> 0:59:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Wait, you're so right.

0:59:02.960 --> 0:59:04.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think that's what we're waiting for.

0:59:04.720 --> 0:59:07.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, for me to speak on the racial

0:59:07.120 --> 0:59:09.040
<v Speaker 2>dynamics and joyja exactly.

0:59:10.080 --> 0:59:11.600
<v Speaker 3>This will do only good for you.

0:59:11.800 --> 0:59:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I think so.

0:59:14.560 --> 0:59:16.840
<v Speaker 3>Okay, well you got two out of three. Okay, two

0:59:16.880 --> 0:59:18.960
<v Speaker 3>out of three isn't bad. I mean you started off

0:59:18.960 --> 0:59:20.760
<v Speaker 3>on such a horrible note that I thought I would

0:59:20.800 --> 0:59:24.120
<v Speaker 3>almost just shut the game down. Yeah, I thought you're right,

0:59:24.200 --> 0:59:25.520
<v Speaker 3>kind of just getting a fight with you and then

0:59:25.560 --> 0:59:27.960
<v Speaker 3>ask you to leave. But you turn things around and

0:59:28.000 --> 0:59:31.920
<v Speaker 3>we love that. This is the final segment of the podcast.

0:59:31.960 --> 0:59:34.560
<v Speaker 3>It's called I Said No Emails. People write in I

0:59:34.600 --> 0:59:38.120
<v Speaker 3>Said No Gifts at gmail dot com and they need

0:59:38.200 --> 0:59:40.960
<v Speaker 3>answers they have. You know, people have all kinds of

0:59:41.040 --> 0:59:44.360
<v Speaker 3>things happening in their lives. They're desperate, they're begging, they're

0:59:44.360 --> 0:59:48.040
<v Speaker 3>turning to me and my guests. Let me answer a question. Absolutely, okay,

0:59:48.040 --> 0:59:52.160
<v Speaker 3>this says dear Bridger and disrespectfully beautiful guest, which is

0:59:52.240 --> 0:59:55.000
<v Speaker 3>kind of a bad boy image that you're kind of

0:59:55.120 --> 0:59:56.280
<v Speaker 3>you're always cultivating it.

0:59:56.360 --> 0:59:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I feel like it's really accurate.

0:59:58.840 --> 1:00:02.200
<v Speaker 3>My husband's fortieth birthday is at the end of August.

1:00:03.160 --> 1:00:06.000
<v Speaker 3>Normally we keep adult birthdays really low key, but since

1:00:06.080 --> 1:00:08.920
<v Speaker 3>this is a milestone birthday, I want to do something

1:00:09.000 --> 1:00:12.840
<v Speaker 3>really special. Historically, my gifts to him are given a

1:00:12.920 --> 1:00:16.919
<v Speaker 3>lackluster acknowledgment of appreciation and generally return to the day

1:00:16.960 --> 1:00:21.760
<v Speaker 3>they are opened. That is aggressive, beat guys. Ok Is

1:00:21.800 --> 1:00:26.919
<v Speaker 3>it me? Probably? But his love language is gifts. Mine

1:00:27.000 --> 1:00:29.040
<v Speaker 3>is acts of service, and I do my best with

1:00:29.120 --> 1:00:31.360
<v Speaker 3>that being said, I am a stay at home mom

1:00:31.360 --> 1:00:34.200
<v Speaker 3>with no outside income, so anything bought for him is

1:00:34.240 --> 1:00:37.000
<v Speaker 3>bought with his paycheck. He is very frugal, so I

1:00:37.040 --> 1:00:39.600
<v Speaker 3>feel like his preference would be for me to not

1:00:39.720 --> 1:00:42.280
<v Speaker 3>buy him anything, but that doesn't sit well with me.

1:00:42.560 --> 1:00:44.840
<v Speaker 3>My ideal gift for him would be to organize his

1:00:44.880 --> 1:00:47.880
<v Speaker 3>home office aka the hoarder hole. He has worked from

1:00:47.880 --> 1:00:51.840
<v Speaker 3>home exclusively since March twenty twenty. These two needs some rooms,

1:00:51.920 --> 1:00:55.280
<v Speaker 3>give him some space. He blurs his Zoom background because

1:00:55.280 --> 1:00:57.320
<v Speaker 3>he is embarrassed of the clutter, and even though I

1:00:57.360 --> 1:00:59.960
<v Speaker 3>have offered several times, he will not let me repay

1:01:00.200 --> 1:01:03.600
<v Speaker 3>and organize his space because I am a minimalist and

1:01:03.640 --> 1:01:06.880
<v Speaker 3>he believes I will throw everything away. Okay, he's probably right,

1:01:07.480 --> 1:01:09.320
<v Speaker 3>not one hundred percent accurate, but if it doesn't serve

1:01:09.360 --> 1:01:12.040
<v Speaker 3>a purpose it goes in the track, you will do. Yes,

1:01:12.200 --> 1:01:15.480
<v Speaker 3>you will be throwing away valuable items. Paint and shelving

1:01:15.560 --> 1:01:18.200
<v Speaker 3>can get expensive, especially when you're containing mass amounts of

1:01:18.200 --> 1:01:20.760
<v Speaker 3>an unnecessary clutter, and I don't want to go in

1:01:20.800 --> 1:01:24.240
<v Speaker 3>his sacred space without permission. Do I continue to badger

1:01:24.320 --> 1:01:26.600
<v Speaker 3>him about the office. Do I get him nothing, knowing

1:01:26.640 --> 1:01:29.120
<v Speaker 3>that most likely would be his preference. Do I just

1:01:29.200 --> 1:01:31.560
<v Speaker 3>throw a pool party for family and friends. There are

1:01:31.600 --> 1:01:35.560
<v Speaker 3>pools coming into this equation, which could also get expensive

1:01:35.560 --> 1:01:37.960
<v Speaker 3>with food and decorations. Or do I just go on

1:01:38.000 --> 1:01:41.040
<v Speaker 3>the lamb and return in September? Please help? Sinceriust apologies

1:01:41.080 --> 1:01:44.600
<v Speaker 3>for the length of this email not accepted. That apology

1:01:44.680 --> 1:01:49.520
<v Speaker 3>is not accepted. Nicole from Kansas. Nicole's marriage is they

1:01:49.640 --> 1:01:51.560
<v Speaker 3>I mean, she's got to go on a vacation, She's

1:01:51.560 --> 1:01:52.640
<v Speaker 3>got to get away from the sky.

1:01:52.840 --> 1:01:56.440
<v Speaker 2>I am. I'm a little worried he's returning the gifts

1:01:56.520 --> 1:02:00.400
<v Speaker 2>day of Like, it's interesting that she's special. Is that

1:02:00.440 --> 1:02:02.200
<v Speaker 2>his love language is gift giving?

1:02:03.240 --> 1:02:04.920
<v Speaker 3>Is that what she said? Let's see, I want to

1:02:04.960 --> 1:02:07.600
<v Speaker 3>just we want to be fair to oh love languages gifts.

1:02:07.680 --> 1:02:11.440
<v Speaker 2>So I'm like that feels, I'm sorry, like a mismatch

1:02:11.520 --> 1:02:17.080
<v Speaker 2>if like the gifts aren't I don't know right, Wow.

1:02:17.000 --> 1:02:21.400
<v Speaker 3>I mean they've been trapped in the same space since

1:02:21.440 --> 1:02:24.120
<v Speaker 3>March twenty twenty. Yeah, she's kind of like and he's

1:02:24.200 --> 1:02:27.920
<v Speaker 3>just gathering crap, Yeah, bring buying things fro himself, obviously

1:02:27.920 --> 1:02:31.440
<v Speaker 3>bringing them to home, blurring the background. He doesn't want

1:02:31.480 --> 1:02:33.840
<v Speaker 3>whoever's on that zoom to know what's happening. Yeah, so

1:02:33.880 --> 1:02:37.680
<v Speaker 3>he's feeling shame or he's communicating with like a secret

1:02:37.720 --> 1:02:40.560
<v Speaker 3>wife and doesn't want her to be aware of his

1:02:40.760 --> 1:02:41.280
<v Speaker 3>home life.

1:02:41.440 --> 1:02:43.000
<v Speaker 2>Right, what is this guy?

1:02:43.200 --> 1:02:44.120
<v Speaker 3>Is bad news?

1:02:44.240 --> 1:02:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1:02:44.680 --> 1:02:46.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but then they have a.

1:02:46.040 --> 1:02:48.200
<v Speaker 2>Pool, so it's like how bad can it be?

1:02:48.320 --> 1:02:50.040
<v Speaker 3>They just like all of their money into the swimming pool.

1:02:50.120 --> 1:02:53.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, I look, it's hard because I hear

1:02:53.280 --> 1:02:55.439
<v Speaker 2>pool party, and that's kind of all I'm thinking about is, Wow,

1:02:55.560 --> 1:02:57.160
<v Speaker 2>you to have a pool party. But I'm going to

1:02:57.200 --> 1:03:03.760
<v Speaker 2>try to stay focused here. Yeah, I feel like, I mean,

1:03:03.840 --> 1:03:06.160
<v Speaker 2>it sounds like I don't want to overreach, but it

1:03:06.240 --> 1:03:09.760
<v Speaker 2>sounds like maybe there is some like money available, Like

1:03:09.760 --> 1:03:11.880
<v Speaker 2>you guys aren't super super tight on cash, just judging

1:03:11.880 --> 1:03:14.640
<v Speaker 2>by the pool and other things mentioned, right, So I'm

1:03:14.680 --> 1:03:18.680
<v Speaker 2>wondering if there's an option of like a hiring of

1:03:18.720 --> 1:03:21.320
<v Speaker 2>an outside person who could help with the organization of

1:03:21.320 --> 1:03:21.720
<v Speaker 2>the office.

1:03:21.760 --> 1:03:21.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

1:03:22.120 --> 1:03:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Interestingly, because I've heard of this conceptually that like sometimes

1:03:27.520 --> 1:03:30.480
<v Speaker 2>when people are married, the clutter or the dirtiness of

1:03:30.520 --> 1:03:33.800
<v Speaker 2>the home it's like brings up a lot of dynamics

1:03:34.120 --> 1:03:36.680
<v Speaker 2>right in the relationships. So it's like, if they have

1:03:36.800 --> 1:03:40.240
<v Speaker 2>access to money, like it can be nicer to have

1:03:40.680 --> 1:03:42.160
<v Speaker 2>to hire someone else to do it.

1:03:42.280 --> 1:03:44.640
<v Speaker 3>Right, So you're not thinking, oh I resent.

1:03:44.720 --> 1:03:48.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, chuck, Right, this is something that I've heard of, right,

1:03:49.080 --> 1:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>because I feel like if she's getting in there and

1:03:51.440 --> 1:03:56.400
<v Speaker 2>she's you know, roaring through stuff, tossing it into the dumpster, right,

1:03:56.480 --> 1:03:57.800
<v Speaker 2>that's going to lead to bigger problems.

1:03:57.840 --> 1:04:00.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, because you know, who knows what might be used

1:04:00.760 --> 1:04:03.760
<v Speaker 3>for work. Yeah, and it feels like, I mean, no

1:04:03.800 --> 1:04:05.480
<v Speaker 3>offense in aicle, But it sounds like you're bad at

1:04:05.600 --> 1:04:08.720
<v Speaker 3>organizing this sort of thing. You're just throwing everything away.

1:04:09.040 --> 1:04:11.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it sounds like there's some serious lapses in

1:04:11.240 --> 1:04:12.800
<v Speaker 2>communication in this relationship.

1:04:12.920 --> 1:04:16.640
<v Speaker 3>She's turned to a podcast host. Yeah, the times that

1:04:16.960 --> 1:04:18.720
<v Speaker 3>spent here, she could have gotten a little job to

1:04:18.800 --> 1:04:20.040
<v Speaker 3>pay for therapy. Right.

1:04:20.320 --> 1:04:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, this would be my other suggestion for going way

1:04:23.040 --> 1:04:25.320
<v Speaker 2>back to suggest a piece of media for people. The

1:04:25.360 --> 1:04:28.960
<v Speaker 2>show Couples Therapy. Oh is changing my life?

1:04:29.200 --> 1:04:32.120
<v Speaker 3>Ah, I mean, let's just prepare for another hour of

1:04:32.160 --> 1:04:33.120
<v Speaker 3>the poducty.

1:04:32.680 --> 1:04:38.840
<v Speaker 2>Like, oh my god, literally the most perfect woman in

1:04:38.880 --> 1:04:39.400
<v Speaker 2>the world.

1:04:40.040 --> 1:04:42.000
<v Speaker 3>No, we're not moving away from four enough for a minute.

1:04:42.520 --> 1:04:46.880
<v Speaker 3>We watched all four seasons within probably six days.

1:04:47.000 --> 1:04:48.960
<v Speaker 2>Literally, my partner and I are like, should we want

1:04:49.040 --> 1:04:51.400
<v Speaker 2>another episode? Is that crazy? Like we're obsessed?

1:04:51.480 --> 1:04:52.480
<v Speaker 3>How far into it are you?

1:04:53.000 --> 1:04:56.040
<v Speaker 2>So we just finished season one, halfway through season two.

1:04:56.160 --> 1:04:58.720
<v Speaker 3>Okay, it all kind of blurs together for me, it's

1:04:58.760 --> 1:04:59.320
<v Speaker 3>season two.

1:05:00.200 --> 1:05:01.880
<v Speaker 2>That's like mekl and Michael.

1:05:02.360 --> 1:05:09.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh yo, that yeah, that's situation is it looks I

1:05:09.880 --> 1:05:10.800
<v Speaker 3>all over the place?

1:05:11.200 --> 1:05:13.400
<v Speaker 2>Crazy stuff. Doesn't it make you feel so much better

1:05:13.400 --> 1:05:14.160
<v Speaker 2>about your relationship?

1:05:14.360 --> 1:05:16.160
<v Speaker 3>We would say that at the end of every episode,

1:05:16.160 --> 1:05:17.360
<v Speaker 3>it's like, Oh, we don't really have problems.

1:05:17.520 --> 1:05:20.360
<v Speaker 2>You're like, wait, we literally love each other. That's crazy.

1:05:20.680 --> 1:05:22.880
<v Speaker 3>We're not like screaming at each other.

1:05:22.920 --> 1:05:26.680
<v Speaker 2>And just like in hysterics, no, I know, because it's like, well,

1:05:26.720 --> 1:05:29.520
<v Speaker 2>we know how to talk to each other, and a

1:05:29.560 --> 1:05:31.840
<v Speaker 2>lot of these people literally don't know how to talk

1:05:31.880 --> 1:05:34.440
<v Speaker 2>to her at all. And they are and they've been

1:05:34.480 --> 1:05:36.760
<v Speaker 2>together for some of them a long.

1:05:36.560 --> 1:05:38.240
<v Speaker 3>Time, years and years and years.

1:05:38.600 --> 1:05:43.080
<v Speaker 2>So crazy. But get to have Orna, I mean, I know,

1:05:43.320 --> 1:05:47.040
<v Speaker 2>just so soothing she is. And then when she talks

1:05:47.040 --> 1:05:48.240
<v Speaker 2>to her advisor about.

1:05:48.040 --> 1:05:51.520
<v Speaker 3>Oh I love the advisor, the advisor always looks wet. Yeah, yea,

1:05:51.760 --> 1:05:53.600
<v Speaker 3>I see someone's dumped a bucket of water over her.

1:05:53.600 --> 1:05:55.080
<v Speaker 3>And then they're like, Okay, let's get the shot.

1:05:55.440 --> 1:05:59.560
<v Speaker 2>She's busy, she's she's thinking about everybody else's stuff. Her

1:05:59.600 --> 1:06:07.320
<v Speaker 2>pasture is always like always yeah, fall is like love, yeah, yeah.

1:06:07.360 --> 1:06:10.880
<v Speaker 3>I want to name the advisor. What is her name? Virginia,

1:06:11.360 --> 1:06:13.720
<v Speaker 3>Virginia Goldener. We need to give her credit because she

1:06:13.880 --> 1:06:15.800
<v Speaker 3>is amazingly maybe the star of the show.

1:06:15.960 --> 1:06:18.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's so like when the two of them

1:06:18.400 --> 1:06:20.160
<v Speaker 2>are talking, I'm like, oh, I want to.

1:06:20.080 --> 1:06:21.920
<v Speaker 3>Be in that ar I'm like soaking up.

1:06:22.000 --> 1:06:24.280
<v Speaker 2>I love the way they speak to each other, and

1:06:25.600 --> 1:06:27.720
<v Speaker 2>I truly feel like I'm learning something every episode.

1:06:27.800 --> 1:06:29.960
<v Speaker 3>And to see someone like Orna, who clearly knows so

1:06:30.080 --> 1:06:31.680
<v Speaker 3>much still willing to learn.

1:06:32.600 --> 1:06:37.320
<v Speaker 2>No, yeah, exactly because you're like she is, I would say,

1:06:37.320 --> 1:06:39.800
<v Speaker 2>by any standard, an expert in her fields. Yes, And

1:06:39.880 --> 1:06:42.800
<v Speaker 2>yet of course there is someone she goes to with questions.

1:06:42.840 --> 1:06:44.760
<v Speaker 3>There's always somebody who knows a little bit more.

1:06:44.680 --> 1:06:48.040
<v Speaker 2>As we all should be willing to do is admit

1:06:48.160 --> 1:06:48.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't know the.

1:06:48.720 --> 1:06:50.920
<v Speaker 3>Answer to this right now. There's there's one thing I

1:06:50.920 --> 1:06:53.080
<v Speaker 3>will say about the entire show that about once a season,

1:06:53.120 --> 1:06:55.520
<v Speaker 3>I'll have to thought, well, what if she's a bad therapist.

1:06:55.560 --> 1:06:58.120
<v Speaker 3>I've never seen a couple's therapies. Yeah, maybe this is

1:06:58.200 --> 1:07:00.160
<v Speaker 3>just like baseline.

1:06:59.680 --> 1:07:03.040
<v Speaker 2>I know, but I will say I've seen a regular,

1:07:03.120 --> 1:07:08.840
<v Speaker 2>regular therapist, right, and definitely like she is better than.

1:07:08.720 --> 1:07:10.720
<v Speaker 3>A lot of the Yeah, I mean.

1:07:10.920 --> 1:07:12.720
<v Speaker 2>What's also then you kind of have to do the

1:07:12.760 --> 1:07:15.480
<v Speaker 2>thing of like these people are being there is a

1:07:15.520 --> 1:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>camera in the room.

1:07:16.520 --> 1:07:19.880
<v Speaker 3>Yes, which always well not in the room apparently through

1:07:20.200 --> 1:07:23.400
<v Speaker 3>two way mirrors. No way. Yes, I think there's like

1:07:23.440 --> 1:07:26.600
<v Speaker 3>a whole construct that's like man that tries I mean,

1:07:26.640 --> 1:07:28.240
<v Speaker 3>but they're obviously aware there.

1:07:28.640 --> 1:07:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Okay, but that does make me feel better because I

1:07:30.680 --> 1:07:33.840
<v Speaker 2>was picturing like a camera guy like it's like.

1:07:33.840 --> 1:07:35.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, can we get that again?

1:07:35.240 --> 1:07:35.959
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1:07:36.040 --> 1:07:37.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, say that line one more time?

1:07:37.840 --> 1:07:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, which would be crazy, but also you know what

1:07:40.160 --> 1:07:40.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, but it is.

1:07:40.880 --> 1:07:43.600
<v Speaker 3>So beautifully shot. Intimately why I.

1:07:43.560 --> 1:07:46.120
<v Speaker 2>Want to be in her office. I'm like, her dog

1:07:46.160 --> 1:07:47.880
<v Speaker 2>comes in. I'm like, oh this guy again.

1:07:47.960 --> 1:07:54.560
<v Speaker 3>You know, Nicole from Kansas, can we recommend? I think

1:07:54.600 --> 1:07:57.960
<v Speaker 3>what Nicole from Kansas needs to do is sign herself

1:07:58.000 --> 1:08:02.280
<v Speaker 3>and ungrateful husband up for a seven day trial of

1:08:02.320 --> 1:08:06.280
<v Speaker 3>Paramount Plus yeah free, yeah, and then binge this show together.

1:08:06.520 --> 1:08:10.080
<v Speaker 2>It Like, genuinely I think it could be a nice, like, oh, like,

1:08:10.160 --> 1:08:12.000
<v Speaker 2>let's watch this show, Like you're not saying, let's go

1:08:12.040 --> 1:08:15.800
<v Speaker 2>to couples therapy right, which, by the way, once you know,

1:08:15.880 --> 1:08:18.000

1:10:15.920 --> 1:10:18.439
<v Speaker 2>when I've been like in conversation with someone, I'm listening,

1:10:18.520 --> 1:10:20.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm thinking about the way that she listens. I'm like,

1:10:20.200 --> 1:10:21.599
<v Speaker 2>how do I kind of channel that?

1:10:21.720 --> 1:10:25.639

1:10:25.720 --> 1:10:26.280

<v Speaker 2>EJ.

1:10:27.560 --> 1:10:30.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm so thankful to have these rocks God, I'm so good.

1:10:30.400 --> 1:10:32.439
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna be able to display them. I will not

1:10:32.479 --> 1:10:34.479
<v Speaker 3>be able to teach a thing about them, but that's fine.

1:10:34.560 --> 1:10:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Don't need it.

1:10:36.520 --> 1:10:41.240
<v Speaker 3>Listener, look for EJ as a Docentaton Canyon. Yeah, also

1:10:41.840 --> 1:10:44.680
<v Speaker 3>look up EJ online Instagram. This sort of thing. I

1:10:44.720 --> 1:10:48.040
<v Speaker 3>feel like it didn't quite get into self promotion in

1:10:48.040 --> 1:10:49.960
<v Speaker 3>a way that I would have encouraged, that I would

1:10:49.960 --> 1:10:54.280
<v Speaker 3>have appreciated. So, you know, Instagram, you're probably on other things.

1:10:54.640 --> 1:10:58.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I have a TikTok Okay, I am on Twitter.

1:10:58.760 --> 1:11:01.640
<v Speaker 3>That one's weirder that one's graveyard.

1:11:02.680 --> 1:11:05.000
<v Speaker 2>Graveyard don't yeah, actually erase that.

1:11:05.040 --> 1:11:08.360
<v Speaker 3>It's kind of like wandering through a tomb like spiderwebs.

1:11:08.920 --> 1:11:10.519
<v Speaker 2>Oh god, it's really upsetting.

1:11:10.840 --> 1:11:13.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, I heard somebody sincerely refer to it as

1:11:13.720 --> 1:11:21.920
<v Speaker 3>X the other day giving that Twitter always. Yeah, okay, this,

1:11:22.400 --> 1:11:23.040
<v Speaker 3>thank you for being here.

1:11:23.080 --> 1:11:25.519
<v Speaker 2>I've had a wonderful time for having me. This was epic.

1:11:26.200 --> 1:11:30.080
<v Speaker 3>Listener, the podcast is over. Maybe look up some of

1:11:30.120 --> 1:11:32.040
<v Speaker 3>those rocks and try to teach yourself something. That's the

1:11:32.160 --> 1:11:35.880
<v Speaker 3>utility of this podcast. We spark an interest and then

1:11:35.920 --> 1:11:38.559
<v Speaker 3>you learn on your own. So we're companions rather than

1:11:38.600 --> 1:11:41.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm not just the teacher. We're basically on the same level.

1:11:41.800 --> 1:11:44.439
<v Speaker 3>So that's why we are a better podcast than the Daily.

1:11:44.880 --> 1:11:49.840
<v Speaker 3>This is the end of the show. I love you goodbye.

1:11:52.520 --> 1:11:55.639

1:11:55.640 --> 1:11:58.919
<v Speaker 3>produced by our dear friend on Aalise Nilson, and it's beautifully

1:11:59.000 --> 1:12:01.719
<v Speaker 3>mixed by Ben Talla and we couldn't do it without

1:12:01.760 --> 1:12:05.879
<v Speaker 3>our guest booker, Patrick Coottner. The theme song, of course,

1:12:06.120 --> 1:12:10.320
<v Speaker 3>could only come from miracle worker Amy Mann. You must
