WEBVTT - Froomy Tricked Flex In The Biggest Stitch Up Ever ✨🔮

0:00:00.760 --> 0:00:07.320
<v Speaker 1>The Flex in Frooms Daily Podcast, brought to you by Cana.

0:00:08.000 --> 0:00:10.600
<v Speaker 2>Hello everybody, this feels actually quite intimate to be speaking

0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:13.240
<v Speaker 2>into the microphone when I know what's about to come up.

0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:17.560
<v Speaker 2>Today's podcast was going to be about love languages. We

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:21.759
<v Speaker 2>do get this in parts slightly, but there was a

0:00:21.800 --> 0:00:24.960
<v Speaker 2>bit of a supernatural experience that happened to me on

0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:27.520
<v Speaker 2>this day, so we actually had to veer down more

0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:30.280
<v Speaker 2>into that territory. Perhaps tomorrow on the podcast or next

0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:33.560
<v Speaker 2>week we will go more into detail on the seven

0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:37.120
<v Speaker 2>love languages. So this is just my upfront apology. This

0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:39.280
<v Speaker 2>is a bench you're on his own, and that's the

0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:42.560
<v Speaker 2>only apology you'll hear from me this month, So enjoy.

0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Flex and Frooms.

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:49.280
<v Speaker 3>I feel like it's my duty to bestow upon you

0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 3>the information. Are you trying to record me?

0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:53.279
<v Speaker 2>Well?

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:57.320
<v Speaker 3>A camera pointed at me. Do you know those creepy

0:00:57.320 --> 0:00:58.000
<v Speaker 3>men on the train?

0:00:58.080 --> 0:00:58.960
<v Speaker 1>What are you doing?

0:00:59.320 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 2>It was a mistake.

0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:03.720
<v Speaker 3>Drooms had her iPhone rested delicately at her hit bone

0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:05.480
<v Speaker 3>camera eyeline with my face.

0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:07.520
<v Speaker 2>Isn't it funny, you know when someone's recording you?

0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:11.119
<v Speaker 3>But nah, that's what someone who wasn't recording me would say.

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:15.120
<v Speaker 3>But I think it's really important to not gate keep information.

0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 3>I think that a lot of us don't take into

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:20.040
<v Speaker 3>consideration how powerful it is to share what we know

0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 3>when we know it. I think we can make the

0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:24.680
<v Speaker 3>assumption that, like, we just all know the same things

0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:30.840
<v Speaker 3>about everything, and those like my souls who are always

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:34.760
<v Speaker 3>consuming information very isolating. I'm glad to share. If you

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:38.640
<v Speaker 3>come across the term energy vampire, yes, what is it?

0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 3>In your opinion?

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Someone who sucks energy out of you whenever you see them?

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:44.479
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmm, anything else?

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:47.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, just someone that you wouldn't necessarily want to hang

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:50.440
<v Speaker 2>around with. Hectic, right, and they often don't realize that

0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 2>they're doing it.

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.120
<v Speaker 3>There we go ding ding ding ding ding. So an

0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 3>energy vampire is something that most people should be aware of.

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 3>I've said it before. I improve my mind body connection,

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:05.120
<v Speaker 3>take stock of how I feel after interacting with certain people,

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:10.000
<v Speaker 3>because as like a extrovert, probably by nurture, not by nature.

0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 3>Before you know, I'm surrounded by people who just suck

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.079
<v Speaker 3>the life out of me, and then I'm left just like.

0:02:15.120 --> 0:02:17.600
<v Speaker 2>Just the bones, like like the pulp of the mango

0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:19.880
<v Speaker 2>that little like mats all suck exactly.

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:25.040
<v Speaker 3>So basically, energy vampires leave you feeling really drained after

0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:29.640
<v Speaker 3>every conversation. They always want your non stop attention. People

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 3>that require a lot of maybe like a lot of

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 3>focus from you, require like everything that you have to

0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:38.200
<v Speaker 3>give at any given point. They want the conversation to

0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:42.239
<v Speaker 3>be about them. They can be really charming or charismatic

0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:45.040
<v Speaker 3>or worthy interaction. It's not just like some weirdo who

0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:47.760
<v Speaker 3>you're like, there's nothing about this person that's redeeming. They

0:02:47.840 --> 0:02:53.920
<v Speaker 3>might be quite likable people, but ultimately it is every

0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:57.120
<v Speaker 3>interaction you have with them is for their benefit and

0:02:57.200 --> 0:03:02.560
<v Speaker 3>for how you can bolster them self perception, their emotions,

0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:06.960
<v Speaker 3>their feelings, their situations. And it's interesting because I've known

0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:09.520
<v Speaker 3>about energy vampires for a long while. I'm the kind

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:11.639
<v Speaker 3>of person I don't do a hard cut off for people.

0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 3>I just wean them off me by just ignoring them,

0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:17.240
<v Speaker 3>because I used to be the hard cut and dry

0:03:17.320 --> 0:03:21.360
<v Speaker 3>person without taking into consideration that people don't accept a

0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:23.639
<v Speaker 3>hard cut off. Like you can say to someone, hey,

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:25.520
<v Speaker 3>I just really want to hang out with you anymore,

0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:28.920
<v Speaker 3>say lovey so long? And then they're like but why,

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:31.359
<v Speaker 3>and like but what if? And I can change It's like,

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:33.480
<v Speaker 3>well this is too much. This is a me problem,

0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:36.040
<v Speaker 3>not a you problem. Let me go. But I recognized

0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:38.720
<v Speaker 3>I had an energy vampire in my life, and only

0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:42.720
<v Speaker 3>because I have been actively trying to avoid them, like

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 3>going out of my way to like screen their call,

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:49.960
<v Speaker 3>say no to hanging out, because it is actually an

0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.480
<v Speaker 3>out of body experience to deal with someone who is

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:55.560
<v Speaker 3>so self absorbed that they won't leave you alone. How

0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 3>did you?

0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 2>Is the person going to hear this?

0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:01.600
<v Speaker 3>Maybe, but I feel like we've talked about this before,

0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:03.040
<v Speaker 3>where it's like, if you think it's about you, it

0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 3>probably is.

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Every anxious person ever is absolutely freaking out.

0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 3>But like whom like, I feel as though being an

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 3>outgoing person anyway, what I need to be mindful of

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 3>is managing people's expectations of my relationship with them. And

0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 3>I never used to do that before. I would just

0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:23.480
<v Speaker 3>let people like run wild, be like, oh, I'm gonna

0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:26.640
<v Speaker 3>hang out. But I recognized I had an energy vampire friend,

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:29.480
<v Speaker 3>and it honestly put me in like a paralytic state

0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:31.479
<v Speaker 3>because I was like, oh, my goodness, I don't want

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:35.040
<v Speaker 3>to cut them off because they're emotionally fragile and mentally fragile,

0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:37.640
<v Speaker 3>but also I can't deal with them like you're stressing

0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:40.880
<v Speaker 3>me out. So I don't have a solution. But here's

0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 3>a wake up call for anyone else as a fellow

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:46.359
<v Speaker 3>energy vampire. If you've got any tools, any tips, tricks

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 3>of the trade, let me know. And this is coming

0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:51.919
<v Speaker 3>from someone who is conflict positive but also recognizing that

0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:55.520
<v Speaker 3>people are much more fragile than I realize. And it's

0:04:55.560 --> 0:04:59.040
<v Speaker 3>almost not helpful to burden someone with the reality that

0:04:59.080 --> 0:04:59.960
<v Speaker 3>they're burdensome too.

0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:04.040
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people can't take that. So yeah, it's

0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:06.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of like the soft ghost of friendships. Yeah, well,

0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 2>anyone else in your life that's vampire.

0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:13.840
<v Speaker 3>Mmmm, leave vampires.

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>This is flex and frooms on kit FLEXI.

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:18.839
<v Speaker 2>When was the last time you went and bought chocolate

0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:21.160
<v Speaker 2>from the shops?

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:24.919
<v Speaker 3>Not recently? Not a big chocolate eater? What mo lollygo?

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:30.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh okay, what we last lollies? The oh Alan's just released.

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:34.160
<v Speaker 3>You know, Frogs like traditional red frogs, but they have

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:38.120
<v Speaker 3>sour versions, so they're coated with sour flavoring. I think

0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 3>they're really nice. Most people that I recommend them to

0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:43.960
<v Speaker 3>feel like they're really gross. I think the flavors don't

0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:45.839
<v Speaker 3>make sense to people, like really sweet. And then a

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:52.240
<v Speaker 3>kick us out that and then after that killer pythons cool.

0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:55.640
<v Speaker 3>I once ate two killer pythons in a row and

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 3>I got a headache. I've just never been up to

0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:58.359
<v Speaker 3>eat them again. I respect that.

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Anyway. I was in the lolly aisle last week, What

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:03.800
<v Speaker 2>are you going for? I was going up to a

0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:06.800
<v Speaker 2>girlfriend's house, so I wanted two blocks of Cadbury. I

0:06:06.839 --> 0:06:09.039
<v Speaker 2>got fruit and nut and then also the marble with

0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:09.799
<v Speaker 2>a Cara milk.

0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:10.880
<v Speaker 3>Fruit and nut.

0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:12.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Just that's like when you want to be a

0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:14.120
<v Speaker 2>bit healthy. Oh.

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.200
<v Speaker 3>I thought fruit and nut was the equivalent of gifting

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 3>people handlation and candles for their birthday, but not like

0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:23.359
<v Speaker 3>the bougie kind, like the kit you know, like the

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:27.920
<v Speaker 3>little party pack version is that twenty bucks for the three?

0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.560
<v Speaker 3>You don't know someone will even to give them something secret,

0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:33.039
<v Speaker 3>Sanna go on.

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 2>It's a secret Sanda of all chocolates. Anyway, standing there,

0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 2>the SuperM got I go to is very small, so

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.800
<v Speaker 2>it's very very narrow aisles, and there's this two men

0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:45.080
<v Speaker 2>standing side beside me. We're all kind of loitering, and

0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:46.680
<v Speaker 2>I was just watching them look to try and get

0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:49.240
<v Speaker 2>their chocolate, and I thought, this is so intimate these

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:50.080
<v Speaker 2>two cool because.

0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 3>You were standing so close, so close to each other, or.

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:56.080
<v Speaker 2>No, it was something different. It's kind of like, I

0:06:56.120 --> 0:06:58.560
<v Speaker 2>feel very close to you. You standing here like a

0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 2>little child trying to pick out what your favorite Chucky is.

0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:04.799
<v Speaker 2>And so I made this TikTok. I'll play the audio

0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:06.360
<v Speaker 2>and then i'll play what I wrote.

0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:08.920
<v Speaker 3>It's like explaining a joke. Weird, tricky one, isn't it?

0:07:09.480 --> 0:07:13.000
<v Speaker 3>I my god, kis you want to me me? And

0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:16.000
<v Speaker 3>they don't casket cat, I'll.

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Come on, yes you do.

0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:19.360
<v Speaker 3>I'm ever might not put it down. You can have it.

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:26.240
<v Speaker 2>So the audio is from CHERYLN. Barnes, who's this YouTuber.

0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.200
<v Speaker 2>But basically I wrote, I love watching men choose their

0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:31.920
<v Speaker 2>favorite Chucky in the loy Isle. It's so raw and vulnerable.

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:34.960
<v Speaker 2>What we little baba choose a Weiriker moment or perhaps

0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:38.480
<v Speaker 2>a family sized caramel KitKat a Smarties Block two fifty G.

0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:43.600
<v Speaker 2>Either way, I'm feeling emotional at the sight. Forty thousand likes.

0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they like that one.

0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.240
<v Speaker 2>So this resonated and people were saying.

0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:52.160
<v Speaker 3>It was controversial. I thought it was only going to

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:55.560
<v Speaker 3>be received. It's just funny. It was funny, great audio,

0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:59.800
<v Speaker 3>great clip, great little caption, A masterful TikTok. I really

0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:02.680
<v Speaker 3>liked one, Thank you very much. I laughed out loud, Oh,

0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 3>we don't do that in twenty twenty two. TikTok twenty

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.880
<v Speaker 3>twenty TikTok definitely twenty twenty two. It's rare.

0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:08.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, here's some of the comments. This is what people

0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.239
<v Speaker 2>feel about this. Why is it sweet when they literally

0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:15.520
<v Speaker 2>do the simplest things a ha ha ha, like oh,

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.880
<v Speaker 2>he's sitting on the floor tying his little shoelaces. And

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.600
<v Speaker 2>then someone wrote, because it's nice to see them not

0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 2>violent always. And then someone said it's a shame that

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 2>the stigma against men is like that when the majority

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 2>of them are just choosing their favor jockey bar, you know.

0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:34.520
<v Speaker 2>Someone said this is the opposite of vick.

0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:38.719
<v Speaker 3>How do we get here? Keep going with I love

0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 3>hearing these all comments. This is why I don't linger.

0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:44.040
<v Speaker 3>I walk down the aisle, place my foot down and.

0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Pick a chocolate. As soon as my heel turns, I'm gone,

0:08:47.160 --> 0:08:50.079
<v Speaker 2>just action, no thought to not be ogalled by women

0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:56.160
<v Speaker 2>literally sorry haha. It's like us women picking what insignificant

0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:58.240
<v Speaker 2>issue to ruin a day over. That's when I said

0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>enough of the comments, had enough. This was a safe

0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:05.360
<v Speaker 2>space and you've absolutely ruined it. But yeah, that's my

0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:08.520
<v Speaker 2>little TikTok, And think about it next time. I'd say,

0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:12.600
<v Speaker 2>bring your boyfriend or your partner that is maybe considers

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:13.480
<v Speaker 2>himself to be a boy.

0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:15.600
<v Speaker 3>What do you think it is about them? Like, you've

0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:20.160
<v Speaker 3>made the TikTok, but you have not explained what informed

0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:22.560
<v Speaker 3>the joke. I'll give you thirty seconds. We are on

0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:23.280
<v Speaker 3>a time crunch.

0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:27.880
<v Speaker 2>I think it's funny because you think of a little

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:29.959
<v Speaker 2>kid in a candy store and the idea that you're

0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:32.400
<v Speaker 2>sitting there or you're standing there looking at all these

0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:34.880
<v Speaker 2>different choices. Obviously, when they're looking at the different choices,

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:37.680
<v Speaker 2>they're imagining in their head, Oh I'm going to eat

0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:39.800
<v Speaker 2>what's this one going to taste? Like? Like, Oh, I'm

0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:40.840
<v Speaker 2>going to go home and eat this?

0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:43.959
<v Speaker 3>Like but just for men? Yeah, women don't.

0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't feel it for women. Something about men.

0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it's it's like an old school thing because when

0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:56.319
<v Speaker 2>men didn't shop like a bygone era. Yeah, my dad

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:57.199
<v Speaker 2>doesn't know how to shop.

0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 1>This is flex and frooms O miss for me.

0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:02.480
<v Speaker 3>You're familiar with the five love languages, aren't.

0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 2>You, gifts, affection, tell me them again.

0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:14.120
<v Speaker 3>Gifts, treating them nice. The five Love Languages were developed

0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:18.400
<v Speaker 3>by this dude called Gary Chapman, essentially an approach to

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:24.199
<v Speaker 3>maintaining harmonious romantic relationships by identifying how your partner wants

0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:27.400
<v Speaker 3>to be loved and how you comfortably show love right,

0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:30.240
<v Speaker 3>because what ends up happening a lot of dynamics is

0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:32.880
<v Speaker 3>that people are like, oh my god, of course they

0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 3>know I love them. I always cook, And then the

0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:38.080
<v Speaker 3>other ones like, of course they know I love them.

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:40.800
<v Speaker 3>I always watch TV with them, and you're like, what

0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 3>that doesn't work for me. So the five Love Languages

0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:46.720
<v Speaker 3>have been referenced all across the Internet for a bajillion years.

0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 3>They are words affirmation, which is compliments, saying nice things,

0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:56.000
<v Speaker 3>acknowledging when someone's done something good. You know, there's receiving

0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:59.560
<v Speaker 3>gifts or giving gifts. We know what that is. Physical touch,

0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:04.480
<v Speaker 3>which which is also non sexual touching, hugging, caressing, that

0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:08.960
<v Speaker 3>kind of stuff. There's quality time, which is spending time

0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:12.440
<v Speaker 3>with one another intentionally to do stuff together. And then

0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 3>there's also acts of service, which is doing stuff for

0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:19.080
<v Speaker 3>your partner, making their lives easier by taking on some

0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:20.400
<v Speaker 3>of that load for them.

0:11:20.960 --> 0:11:21.959
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what your.

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:24.280
<v Speaker 3>Love language is or better yet, do you have a

0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:27.120
<v Speaker 3>preference of how you like to show love versus how

0:11:27.160 --> 0:11:29.640
<v Speaker 3>you like to receive love.

0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:33.640
<v Speaker 2>I like to be touched, you do, Yeah.

0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:35.880
<v Speaker 3>I do? Hit through me with you know, a weekly

0:11:35.960 --> 0:11:39.520
<v Speaker 3>neck massage. Get right in there, squeeze the back of

0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:39.880
<v Speaker 3>the necks.

0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:42.280
<v Speaker 2>She loves that delicious pull down the bit behind my

0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:47.400
<v Speaker 2>ears is my cat trace. I like physical touch, and

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:51.440
<v Speaker 2>I like getting gifts, and I like being told that

0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:54.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm good. And I probably would give words of affirmation

0:11:54.679 --> 0:11:55.880
<v Speaker 2>as my thing that I give.

0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:58.000
<v Speaker 3>Why don't you give the others?

0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:03.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't not interested in acts service, really, I don't

0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:05.200
<v Speaker 2>have time for that. I just want to be the

0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:08.000
<v Speaker 2>fun one. You get little kisses and a nice word,

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:10.600
<v Speaker 2>and then we go and get someone else to do everything.

0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:12.920
<v Speaker 3>Sounds like a babysitting. You get little kisses and a

0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:15.480
<v Speaker 3>nice word, you know, we head out. Yeah that's pretty fair.

0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:19.040
<v Speaker 3>I'm like a words affirmation ye person, but only because

0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:21.200
<v Speaker 3>that's very easy for me to do. And people are

0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:26.280
<v Speaker 3>compliments starved, let me tell you. And people should be validating.

0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:31.320
<v Speaker 3>But I prefer acts of service. I'm big on that.

0:12:31.640 --> 0:12:33.720
<v Speaker 3>But I was raised in an acts of service family,

0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:38.080
<v Speaker 3>so you know, I'm used to being treated like a

0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:41.079
<v Speaker 3>little princess. Think about it. I was raised in a

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:44.319
<v Speaker 3>household what I was always called princess and boss? What

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:47.040
<v Speaker 3>do you think that did to me? Are you actually

0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:50.960
<v Speaker 3>my mum called me boss, she called me princess, My

0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:51.959
<v Speaker 3>brothers call me boss.

0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 2>It all makes sense.

0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:56.440
<v Speaker 3>It makes so much sense.

0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:57.120
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:12:57.320 --> 0:13:00.480
<v Speaker 3>Receiving gifts, which is a very interesting one that one

0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:02.959
<v Speaker 3>gets a bad rap and was like, it's so superficial,

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:06.360
<v Speaker 3>quite sweet, receiving just getting a little.

0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:06.960
<v Speaker 2>Box of shoes.

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:09.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, if it's a thoughtful gift, that's, you know, right

0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:11.160
<v Speaker 3>on the money. I'm like more of this.

0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:13.400
<v Speaker 2>When you got me the Shrek croc tublets?

0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:13.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:16.360
<v Speaker 2>Whoa exercise of slutter.

0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:21.040
<v Speaker 3>The fact that there are seven love languages affirms that

0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.679
<v Speaker 3>there's so much to get wrong about love, Like why

0:13:23.720 --> 0:13:26.280
<v Speaker 3>are we making up new rules this far into civilization?

0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:29.040
<v Speaker 3>I feel like we should have gotten them down pat

0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:31.440
<v Speaker 3>by now. But it's not made by the same guy,

0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:35.400
<v Speaker 3>Gary Chapman. This was made by this person called Molly Owens,

0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:40.440
<v Speaker 3>who definitely said she leaned on Gary for like the theory,

0:13:40.640 --> 0:13:44.040
<v Speaker 3>but decided that her approach to love languages tast into

0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:47.960
<v Speaker 3>consideration that gender norms have changed, and so our expectations

0:13:48.000 --> 0:13:53.480
<v Speaker 3>of romance has changed as well. In particular, like Chapman's

0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:58.280
<v Speaker 3>book talks a lot about like housework and when the

0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:00.920
<v Speaker 3>man comes home from work and the women's at home,

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:03.120
<v Speaker 3>and these things just don't take into consideration that, like,

0:14:03.440 --> 0:14:06.680
<v Speaker 3>not all households like that. So, without further ado, here

0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:11.800
<v Speaker 3>are the seven love languages. The first is activity. I

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.640
<v Speaker 3>was like, what does that mean? It means these people

0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:17.800
<v Speaker 3>feel special and valued when their partner actually takes interests

0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:22.480
<v Speaker 3>in their hobbies and activities. Appreciation These people feel loved

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.800
<v Speaker 3>and adored when their partner shows them, showers them and compliments,

0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:32.080
<v Speaker 3>praises and appreciation. Emotional, these people feel like they can

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:35.040
<v Speaker 3>connect with their partner and be supported through the toughest

0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:38.640
<v Speaker 3>of times. They feel very valued by someone who validates

0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:43.080
<v Speaker 3>their emotions. Financial, they feel loved when they have a

0:14:43.080 --> 0:14:45.560
<v Speaker 3>partner who is very generous with their money and sees

0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:50.520
<v Speaker 3>the value in giving, giving experiences, sharing resources, helping each

0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:54.280
<v Speaker 3>other make money. Intellectual, these people want to connect through

0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:59.520
<v Speaker 3>the mind. They value opinions, difference in opinions, respecting opinions

0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:05.760
<v Speaker 3>healthy debate, open communication, thought for discussion. Physical these persons,

0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:10.280
<v Speaker 3>these people, these persons. These people feel really validated through

0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:13.240
<v Speaker 3>physical affection like hugs and holding hands. The last one

0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:17.000
<v Speaker 3>is practical. These people feel most loved when their partnership

0:15:17.040 --> 0:15:23.040
<v Speaker 3>in with everyday practical duties and responsibilities. A lot doesn't

0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.120
<v Speaker 3>really roll off the tongue at the five. Dude, this

0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:26.520
<v Speaker 3>feels like an essay.

0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:28.280
<v Speaker 2>Slam poetry.

0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:30.400
<v Speaker 3>Slam poetry. I was like, how am I meant to

0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:30.920
<v Speaker 3>remember these?

0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:34.360
<v Speaker 2>Okay? Okay, So one of my love languages, yeah, I'm

0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:37.880
<v Speaker 2>going to get your our messages up is sharing things

0:15:37.960 --> 0:15:40.960
<v Speaker 2>with partners. So I love being honest and like sharing

0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:42.720
<v Speaker 2>things about my life. I like it when you take

0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:46.400
<v Speaker 2>an active interest in my activities, and so we often talk.

0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:48.600
<v Speaker 2>This is a bit of like a segue that we

0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:49.640
<v Speaker 2>didn't think we were going to take.

0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.600
<v Speaker 3>But I didn't know we were taking this, so maybe

0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:54.720
<v Speaker 3>I did just holding onto the chair. Yeah, like we

0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:55.960
<v Speaker 3>let's go.

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:01.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So we believe is a politiceist in our studio.

0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:04.440
<v Speaker 2>There's some sort of ghost like creature that lives among

0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:07.920
<v Speaker 2>us as we record and friend, Yeah, I just went

0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:10.920
<v Speaker 2>to the toilet before, and it's a stinky toilet.

0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 3>We don't really need to pipes in this toilet. They

0:16:14.120 --> 0:16:18.320
<v Speaker 3>just feel like, whatever the wherever the feces are meant

0:16:18.320 --> 0:16:20.320
<v Speaker 3>to go, they've not been emptied out.

0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:25.040
<v Speaker 2>The cater family dropping heat in the cubicles, now please.

0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:28.800
<v Speaker 2>I actually recorded the craziest sound that I heard. I

0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:32.560
<v Speaker 2>sent it to your phone. I was literally freaking out.

0:16:32.600 --> 0:16:36.920
<v Speaker 2>You go to make sure it's on the microphone.

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:55.640
<v Speaker 3>Is that you pooling? Can I tell you? With the

0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:58.760
<v Speaker 3>way that this bit was set up, I have to

0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:01.560
<v Speaker 3>commend you because we were just out there. For me

0:17:02.000 --> 0:17:05.680
<v Speaker 3>runs into the common area. She's like, oh my goodness,

0:17:06.040 --> 0:17:08.760
<v Speaker 3>something happened to me in those bathrooms. Did you did

0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:09.879
<v Speaker 3>you see what I said? Did you hear what I

0:17:09.880 --> 0:17:12.159
<v Speaker 3>said you? I was like, nah, babe, I didn't. My

0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:15.120
<v Speaker 3>phone's over there. It's like, oh my god, we have

0:17:15.200 --> 0:17:17.840
<v Speaker 3>to talk about it. I had an experience with the poltergeist.

0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:20.160
<v Speaker 3>I was like, okay, cool, we'll talk about it. No stress.

0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:24.840
<v Speaker 3>We get here. We're trying to have a civil conversation

0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:31.240
<v Speaker 3>about love languages using decorum and a wide vocab, and

0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:35.199
<v Speaker 3>three me derails that conversation. So we can listen to

0:17:35.800 --> 0:17:37.040
<v Speaker 3>a voice from you doing what.

0:17:38.160 --> 0:17:38.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't nothing.

0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:44.520
<v Speaker 3>It was a little anyway, or was it? It was airy?

0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:45.119
<v Speaker 3>It was liquid.

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:48.120
<v Speaker 2>I told you in the previous break we were talking

0:17:48.119 --> 0:17:49.800
<v Speaker 2>about having a saw ummy.

0:17:49.560 --> 0:17:51.119
<v Speaker 3>You did, you said you were curdling.

0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:52.520
<v Speaker 2>I know what we're going to do, fart in the

0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:56.520
<v Speaker 2>studio because my love is being thoughtful and considerate.

0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:09.760
<v Speaker 3>It's the second one that's especially grows ill. You're a

0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:16.680
<v Speaker 3>feral beast, but I love this makes you so stoked.

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:19.600
<v Speaker 3>I want to relate because these feel like this is

0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:22.919
<v Speaker 3>joy radiating, radiating out of you. This is not like

0:18:23.040 --> 0:18:24.760
<v Speaker 3>casual like that was funny.

0:18:25.800 --> 0:18:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, it's enough.

0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:30.879
<v Speaker 3>Do you want to talk us through your setup? Okay?

0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:34.920
<v Speaker 3>Some what like in between us eating doughnuts, you have

0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:39.640
<v Speaker 3>a curdling stomach then running to the bathroom. At what

0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:41.879
<v Speaker 3>point did you think I'm gonna record this?

0:18:41.960 --> 0:18:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Because I was sitting on the toilet and I went

0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:46.520
<v Speaker 2>to like, in between the breaks, you have to go

0:18:46.560 --> 0:18:48.400
<v Speaker 2>do other work, you know, And I was gonna send

0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:51.320
<v Speaker 2>a voice memo to a colleague of mine and you

0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:55.840
<v Speaker 2>can me pissing in it? Are you eat me? Like?

0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh got here?

0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:58.720
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna make great materials. And I just pushed a

0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:02.040
<v Speaker 2>little bit. Oh yeah, someone in the tank. Open up

0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:03.919
<v Speaker 2>our messages, hit the record.

0:19:04.000 --> 0:19:06.080
<v Speaker 3>But what was in the tank was that a far.

0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Why are you making me? Why are you humiliating me

0:19:09.920 --> 0:19:12.280
<v Speaker 2>like this me humiliating you.

0:19:12.720 --> 0:19:14.560
<v Speaker 3>This is self prescribed humiliation.

0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:16.080
<v Speaker 2>No, no, it was a little poo.

0:19:16.640 --> 0:19:18.240
<v Speaker 3>It was pooh.

0:19:18.560 --> 0:19:23.080
<v Speaker 2>It was like the middle of my guts, like at

0:19:23.160 --> 0:19:26.200
<v Speaker 2>the core of my being. I can't believe you're making

0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:28.400
<v Speaker 2>me recall this. This is absolutely disgusting.

0:19:29.640 --> 0:19:33.200
<v Speaker 3>This is foul. Actually, this is set up. Now what

0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 3>the social media this?

0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:40.280
<v Speaker 2>You're a savage beast. Let's get back to what we wanted.

0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:43.200
<v Speaker 3>This is why we have to have a very interesting

0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:46.720
<v Speaker 3>conversation about perception versus reality. Everyone thinks Rooms is a

0:19:46.720 --> 0:19:50.320
<v Speaker 3>pretty delicate princess, and nobody think the most bush piggery

0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:55.000
<v Speaker 3>of bush pigs. Ever, this is unprovoked bush piggery. This

0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:59.240
<v Speaker 3>is like premeditated bush piggery. I've never experienced this before

0:19:59.240 --> 0:19:59.880
<v Speaker 3>in my life.

0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Listening to Flex and Frooms on Kada.

0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:05.520
<v Speaker 2>Despite what you might think, we are not twins.

0:20:06.080 --> 0:20:07.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, that's come up quite a bit.

0:20:07.600 --> 0:20:08.719
<v Speaker 2>It's a weirly weird, isn't it.

0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:10.639
<v Speaker 3>I guess yeah, separated at birth.

0:20:11.280 --> 0:20:14.080
<v Speaker 2>He would have thought you know, technically we could be

0:20:14.200 --> 0:20:15.240
<v Speaker 2>we could have the same mother.

0:20:16.080 --> 0:20:16.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah we could.

0:20:17.960 --> 0:20:21.640
<v Speaker 2>We don't, but we could, and that's what matters anyway.

0:20:22.320 --> 0:20:25.800
<v Speaker 2>In twenty thirteen, when Anaia Sportyas saw a YouTube video

0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:29.880
<v Speaker 2>of Samantha Footman, who looked exactly like her, she Facebook

0:20:29.960 --> 0:20:32.800
<v Speaker 2>messaged her and discovered they were both adopted and born

0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:37.159
<v Speaker 2>on the same day. They were identical twins, separated at

0:20:37.160 --> 0:20:40.320
<v Speaker 2>birth who'd found each other through happenstance.

0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:44.359
<v Speaker 3>And social media. That's awesome. Did I tell you about

0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:49.720
<v Speaker 3>my cosmic twin? No? What? Why haven't I spoken about this?

0:20:50.200 --> 0:20:55.200
<v Speaker 3>Tell me my cosmic twin is somebody who I met online,

0:20:55.800 --> 0:20:58.560
<v Speaker 3>they followed me on Instagram or currently do. But we

0:20:58.560 --> 0:21:01.160
<v Speaker 3>were born in the same hospital on the same day,

0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:02.399
<v Speaker 3>in the same ward.

0:21:03.800 --> 0:21:05.240
<v Speaker 2>How did you figure out the ward?

0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:08.680
<v Speaker 3>Well, because I googled, or I asked my mum and

0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:11.440
<v Speaker 3>then I googled what was the ward that? Like? How

0:21:11.440 --> 0:21:13.440
<v Speaker 3>many wards were there at the hospital were built that

0:21:13.920 --> 0:21:15.520
<v Speaker 3>I was born in. She's like it was just the

0:21:15.600 --> 0:21:18.720
<v Speaker 3>two and she was like on the day, she was

0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:20.480
<v Speaker 3>saying that on the day that she had given birth,

0:21:21.000 --> 0:21:22.679
<v Speaker 3>she was moved from one war to another because of

0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:24.520
<v Speaker 3>like some kind of issue, so like there was only

0:21:24.640 --> 0:21:27.879
<v Speaker 3>one Ward really, so like it must have been ours. Anyway,

0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:30.760
<v Speaker 3>It's pretty hectic because that's my twin.

0:21:31.600 --> 0:21:35.679
<v Speaker 2>Wow, well these she's actual twins, not just in the

0:21:35.680 --> 0:21:39.800
<v Speaker 2>same ward cosmic twins. Cosmic twins. Apparently, I'm going to

0:21:39.840 --> 0:21:43.440
<v Speaker 2>read this story. Not long after they connected on Facebook,

0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:45.560
<v Speaker 2>future Men in Body Us set a date to skype

0:21:45.640 --> 0:21:47.800
<v Speaker 2>a conversation that would last three hours. It was like

0:21:47.840 --> 0:21:49.840
<v Speaker 2>going on a blind date. I didn't know what to ask.

0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:52.800
<v Speaker 2>We talked about everything about how we came about and

0:21:52.840 --> 0:21:55.240
<v Speaker 2>what our friends were saying. We compared our noses, our teeth,

0:21:55.320 --> 0:21:58.000
<v Speaker 2>our ears, our hands. We talked about when we got

0:21:58.000 --> 0:22:01.399
<v Speaker 2>our periods, when our current boy friends status was. We

0:22:01.480 --> 0:22:03.280
<v Speaker 2>talked until we were staring at each other and it

0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:06.840
<v Speaker 2>was like I have to pee. They discovered similarities beyond

0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:10.240
<v Speaker 2>their long hair and spray of feckles across their henosis.

0:22:11.000 --> 0:22:14.560
<v Speaker 2>Both hate bell peppers and cooked carrots, prefer coke to

0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:18.320
<v Speaker 2>PEPSI no spon con relished koreene, barbecue and Halloween, and

0:22:18.359 --> 0:22:23.000
<v Speaker 2>require a napp when stressed relatable. And we'll go get

0:22:23.000 --> 0:22:24.760
<v Speaker 2>our haircut on the same day and we'll show up

0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:27.240
<v Speaker 2>with the same nail polish color, always without talking about it.

0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:29.239
<v Speaker 2>How cool is that?

0:22:29.560 --> 0:22:30.040
<v Speaker 3>I like that?

0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:33.400
<v Speaker 2>And then, in May twenty thirteen, Futuremen and her family

0:22:33.400 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 2>flew to London to Meat Bordier, a then graduate fashion

0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:38.840

0:22:39.240 --> 0:22:41.120
<v Speaker 3>Too much information, what's happening?

0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:43.840
<v Speaker 2>When the twins came face to face in the living

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.880
<v Speaker 2>room of the Airbnb apartment in Hackney, all they could

0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:50.760
<v Speaker 2>do was stare, Wow, that's a wow moment.

0:22:52.600 --> 0:22:53.159
<v Speaker 3>That's awesome.

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:55.760
<v Speaker 2>I love that it happened to be just spun gone

0:22:55.760 --> 0:22:59.400

0:23:05.520 --> 0:23:06.040
