Take a listen to some 6 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: of those captivating moments in this special best of episode. 7 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 2: Hey, guys, Eating while Broke. I'm your host Coley Witt, 8 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 2: So I'm really excited to have you. I feel like 9 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 2: I did the grocery shopping guys. So I know what 10 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 2: he's making us is extremely healthy and budget friendly. Yes, 11 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:32,880 Speaker 2: so go ahead. What are you going to have me 12 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:33,600 Speaker 2: eating today? 13 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 3: So today we have overnight oats, very very basic. But 14 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 3: the good part about it is you can get as 15 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 3: specific and as curated as you want, depending on your 16 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 3: budget and how many you're trying to make. 17 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 2: Oh I thought this was like a yogurt parfe or something. 18 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 4: It is it is. 19 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 3: So the way it is is it has a liquid base, 20 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 3: which is going to be like the oat milk and 21 00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 3: everything that's in it, and then it has the oatmeals 22 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 3: that absorb, and then you top it with whatever types 23 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 3: of like fruit and everything that you want on top 24 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 3: of it. So you could get as intricate as you want. 25 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,199 Speaker 3: You could get as basic as you want. 26 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: I'm nervous about this dish, but is this now? Is 27 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 2: this considered vegan? No, huh, because the creek yogurt. 28 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 3: It could be depending on your ingredients. But I was 29 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 3: using what I had in my kitchen. 30 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 2: I was actually shopping with my dad, and I was like, 31 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:21,759 Speaker 2: I called bullshit. 32 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 5: I called bullshit. 33 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: He was eating this out of Mason jars, Like come on. 34 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 2: But then I was driving and I was like, you know, 35 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 2: technically it could be considered broke because your oats, your honey, 36 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 2: your chi seeds, they're the staple, right, And I'm guessing 37 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 2: oat milk doesn't go bad because it wasn't in refrigerated section, 38 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 2: So the only moving parts of this dish that you 39 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: would have to rotate out would be the fruit and 40 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 2: the yogurt. So technically, i'm guessing based on this this 41 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 2: this dish costs me about forty five dollars, guys, and 42 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: that included the Mason jars. So typically I'm guessing this 43 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 2: could be your breakfast for at least a week, and 44 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 2: it would probably run you about twelve dollars if you 45 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: already have the staple ingredients. 46 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 3: Yeah, and for a lot of it. You have a 47 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 3: lot of stuff at home. A majority of people have 48 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 3: well my assagnsion, they have honey, they have oats, they've 49 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 3: got some type of like milk or anything like that. Yeah, 50 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 3: any milk can work. I just like oat milk because 51 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 3: it's a little easier on my stomach. But I've used 52 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 3: almond milk, I've used two percent anything that's good. And then, 53 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 3: just like I was saying before, as you want to 54 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 3: curate and make it more special, you can make it 55 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 3: high protein by putting protein. 56 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 4: Powder in it. 57 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: You can add a lot of stuff. And then Mason jars. 58 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,519 Speaker 3: You could just get them from like the dollar store. 59 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 3: The fruits are nice. 60 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, you can get everything pretty much affordable. All right, 61 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: But when you make these at home, do you make 62 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 2: them like on the spot, like when you're making cereal, 63 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 2: or do you like have these in your fridge? Why 64 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: the mason jar? 65 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 3: So, the mason jar is good because it kind of 66 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 3: ferments it, right. I usually make them the night before, 67 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 3: so planning a lot of them, I'll do my meal 68 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 3: prep for the week. So I'll make probably about five 69 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 3: or six of these and one in one go so 70 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 3: it's really really easy to make, but that's not the 71 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: night before. If it's like, you can still make it 72 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 3: like really quickly. It's just the flavor absorbs into the 73 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 3: oat meal the longer you wait, so it could be 74 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 3: really dense and kind of just not as hard to 75 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 3: eat if you're just like really in a quick like punch. 76 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 3: But you can also make it and plant it out, 77 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 3: so the meal that you make that night before three 78 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 3: days later would be even better and even sweeter from 79 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 3: like the fruits and like the honeys and stuff that 80 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 3: absorb into it the longer you wait. 81 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: I'm just genuinely curious if you make it, say I'm 82 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 2: I'm like, I love this dish. It's fantastic. I'm going 83 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 2: to make these at home. And I like to meal 84 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: prep on Sundays. I'm a huge meal prepper. Okay, yeah, 85 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 2: but my whole thing is consistency. Like if I make 86 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: this on a Sunday and I go and eat it 87 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: on a Wednesday, is everything going to be like mushy 88 00:03:59,680 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: and slow? 89 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 3: I mean, it depends if you go and put fruit 90 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 3: in it and stuff, like the fruit eventually can start 91 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 3: to get like mushy and things. I'm the type of 92 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: person that I can make something on Sunday and eat 93 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 3: the same dish over and over and over and over. Yeah, 94 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 3: if you want to make sure it's not like a 95 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 3: crazy consistency, you can always put like the fruit in 96 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 3: at the end. So when you're about to eat it, 97 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 3: maybe just like Gardner shit and put it on. 98 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 2: You're gonna say the milk was gonna make it nest. 99 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 2: All right, let's make it all excited. 100 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 6: What are you gonna have us eating today? 101 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 5: Well, what we're gonna eat is a breakdown.

I was hanging out in my dad's apartment. 361 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 2: He had this quote on the wall and I took it. 362 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 2: And the whole irony in this quote is that he 363 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 2: actually took it from me. But I read this quote 364 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 2: and I thought of you. Excellence is never an accident. 365 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 2: It is always a result of high intention, sincere effort 366 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 2: and tell direction, skillful execution, and the vision to see 367 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 2: obstacles as opportunities. Now I thought of you because just 368 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: reading all your books, I was like, personally and professionally, 369 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,959 Speaker 2: it seems like that has been your journey. Absolutely absolutely, 370 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 2: So I gotta ask, what is the broke dish that 371 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 2: you would have had us eating in my studio? 372 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,679 Speaker 6: I really don't know. 373 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,119 Speaker 1: I was racking my brain when they kept telling me, 374 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: and I watched the show and I'm like, they kept 375 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: you know, you got to have a broke dish and 376 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: I'm like, I didn't really have a broke dish coming up. 377 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: And the reason I say that is because even though 378 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: we were poor, I didn't realize we were poor until 379 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: I got older, because you know, I grew up in 380 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: Monks Corner, South Carolina, and you know, when you grow 381 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: up in a ruined area like that, everybody is pretty 382 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 1: much doing the same. Like, you know, you might have 383 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: a couple of individuals who got a house that's better 384 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: than yours, but for the most part, people were growing 385 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: up in double ye trailers and we're growing up in 386 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 1: you know, like small subberns like my grandma used to have. 387 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 6: But the one thing. 388 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: That we always had was food in funny food, funny 389 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: and family literally, you know. So it's like the things 390 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: that people would call broke meals or the things that 391 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: I still love now, Like I love grits and eggs. 392 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: You give me some scrambled eggs with some grits and butter, 393 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: I'm good. 394 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 6: Like my grandma used to make this. 395 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: She used to make cheese toast. So she would just 396 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: take the toast. My mouth started water and thinking about it. 397 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: She would just take the toast and like you know, 398 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: put the butter on the center and then put a 399 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: slice of cheese and literally warm that up. 400 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 6: And I would drink that with a cup of tea. 401 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: And now that I think about it, I'm like, oh, 402 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: that was like the meals that they were giving us 403 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: because that's what they could afford to give us, like 404 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 1: even you know, but it was amazing that it still 405 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: tasted good. 406 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 6: Like it don't make me feel like something. 407 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: It's something that I still enjoy now, you know, so 408 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: to me, that's not It might be a broke dish, 409 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:56,959 Speaker 1: but I still love it. 410 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 2: I love hearing guests say that they were broke but 411 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 2: they didn't realized they were broke. But in those types 412 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 2: of cities, what I did notice is that, yeah, everyone 413 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: looked the same. But what differentiated kids from knowing whether 414 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 2: they were broke was at least I don't know, we're 415 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 2: close in age, but it was the like kicks, Like 416 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 2: were you going to school with the cool kicks or something? 417 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 6: So or nah, I ain't had none of those. 418 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: My dad, I remember, I wanted they used to be 419 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: these boots called high tech boots, and my dad they 420 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,479 Speaker 1: they saw the boot leg version that pay less, and 421 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 1: I wanted them so bad that I'm like y'all get 422 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: the bootleg version that. 423 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 6: Pay less, and they didn't. 424 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 2: The kids didn't noticing me. 425 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: Well, no, I woke up one morning and my dad 426 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: had the high tech sitting by my bed. 427 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 6: So I was like, oh, shoot, you know what I mean. 428 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: So I actually had the real you know, all black 429 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: high texts, you know, So I didn't have like the 430 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 1: Jordans and all of that stuff like that.
