• 2:18
  where it's okay. I got a long drive or something
• 2:21
  to kill some time. And so I was kind of I was, I
• 2:25

  Yes, yes, they are. Yes.
• 2:52
  They they definitely are oh so yeah.
• 2:55
  So so today we're going to touch on a mixture of things primarily
• 3:01
  focusing on touching on self-care because Moody, as well
• 3:07
  as several other people in the community have been doing the
• 3:10
  self-care challenge for the month of February, but I also
• 3:13
  definitely want to touch on a little bit as well.
• 3:17
  The community building aspect of things as well.
• 3:21
  So, but but before we dive into all of those, how was your day?
• 3:28
  How has your week been? Moody, my day has actually been
• 3:32
  Stellar. This has been a really good day.
• 3:36
  I woke up early without an alarm, which is always like.
• 3:40
  Yes, because I hate alarms, honestly, but I need like five.
• 3:43
  Six to keep me to keep me in line because Very much a very
• 3:48
  like, a squirrel kind of girl. So I need those alarms.
• 3:51
  Keep me a lot. So I woke up early without an
• 3:53
  alarm. I went to the store, got some
• 3:55
  stuff for a cosplay that I really needed got new running
• 3:59
  shoes because I'm trying to get on my training Ark.
• 4:02
  Yeah, I did a lot of stuff so it's been a good day so far my
• 4:05
  week. Was a great week.
• 4:09
  I'm not, gonna lie wasn't a great week but it's okay we
• 4:12
  closed it with this really, really good day today.
• 4:15
  Yeah, that's good to hear that you've been having a good day.
• 4:23
  It's funny that it's funny that you mentioned the shoe thing.
• 4:27
  So earlier today, my oldest son had a game this morning and so
• 4:35
  long story short after the My guess I guess that you know his
• 4:39
  feet was hurting or whatever and so my wife didn't work.
• 4:42
  No was checking checking them out and and Russ do his feet,
• 4:46
  are like scratched up in his shoes so it's okay.
• 4:49
  He's had a growth spurt at some point you know and we buy shoes
• 4:52
  pretty often because you know everybody doesn't listen to the
• 4:55
  podcast. Y'all know my kids do a million
• 4:58
  things so we try to keep on top of, you know, make sure they
• 5:00
  have up-to-date, you know, shoes and you know, gear and stuff
• 5:03
  like that. So anywho, so my wife, you know,
• 5:07
  took them to the store to go. No, pick itpick get some more
• 5:12
  shoes so that she was he had on this morning were a nine and a
• 5:16
  half by the time that they measured his feet and he tried
• 5:19
  on a few different pair, whatever he had to hit, we had
• 5:23
  to upgrade them to a size 11, what?
• 5:26
  And he's been wearing a nine and a half and didn't say anything.
• 5:29
  Yes. There that say that that is That
• 5:35
  that is sometimes. Love my kids.
• 5:38
  But that is sometimes the, the, the annoying, an irksome things.
• 5:44
  Sometimes we kids is that they will bug you like no tomorrow
• 5:50
  for minut Stuff little things but things like, hey, my feet
• 5:57
  are scrunched up in these shoes. Won't say a peep until his toes
• 6:01
  are popping out like the Hulk. So so yeah.
• 6:06
  So sorry, Sam, I've got up some shoes or whatever.
• 6:09
  He's happy. He's cool.
• 6:11
  So hopefully, that'll you know, get them.
• 6:14
  Good for at least a while. I hope these girls Spurs, man.
• 6:18
  Like they, they come out of nowhere and you don't know, you
• 6:23
  know, how's it going to manifest things like bigger feet or
• 6:27
  they'll get taller, which means shorter clothes.
• 6:29
  And so, yeah. So you mentioned the shoe thing,
• 6:33
  whatever. Just made me made me remember
• 6:34
  That so so yeah. So got him some new shoes.
• 6:40
  So I don't have kids. I barely remember to get.
• 6:42
  I've had these same pair of shoes for a very very long time.
• 6:46
  Imagine if I had a child, my child would definitely be
• 6:49
  scrunched up like and I would just be like, dang this is I'm
• 6:54
  so sorry that your feet are like that.
• 6:56
  You should have said something. Yes and and and that that is why
• 7:00
  I leave the shoe bind to my wife because I also stay With the
• 7:05
  same pair of shoes for years on end just because you know, I've
• 7:09
  always been a person to where I've always taken care of my
• 7:11
  stuff so I don't be blowing through shoes every six months,
• 7:15
  whatever. Like I think I think last year
• 7:18
  was the first time I bought a new pair of tennis shoes.
• 7:22
  I think before then it was maybe like four years or so and and
• 7:26
  the shoes still look pretty good, you know, considering like
• 7:32
  I said that I've had them for four plus years.
• 7:35
  But bear. Where's my wife?
• 7:38
  She, I'm looking across the up to the side of her cause
• 7:41
  whatever. I just see, she was Galore
• 7:44
  everywhere. But I might, you know, a your
• 7:46
  money do what you do, you know, as long as long as we keeping
• 7:51
  the lights on what you do. So but but yeah and Anywho, so
• 8:02
  kind of I guess, kind of like building off of that.
• 8:06
  I kind of, I guess I want at least like jump into a little
• 8:08
  bit with the talk of the the self-care challenge that y'all
• 8:12
  are doing in the community. So I get well Grant I think by
• 8:16
  the time this episode comes out and probably be like right at
• 8:20
  the end of the month but we can still just kind of just speaking
• 8:23
  in general whatever. What kind of sparked the idea
• 8:27
  for y'all to do that self-care Challenge?
• 8:30
  And I guess kind of like talk about little bit of like how
• 8:34
  y'all have been Run it out. Yeah, so okay.
• 8:39
  So the idea came to me just really randomly a little bit of
• 8:43
  background about like stuff I've done before.
• 8:46
  I was a cosplayer content, creator, blah blah blah.
• 8:49
  I worked at a university and counseling services for three
• 8:53
  years. So my main job when I worked,
• 8:56
  there was developing programming for the students that concern
• 8:59
  like mental health drugs, alcohol, sex and like making it
• 9:04
  not boring and making it like not don't do this.
• 9:08
  Need to do this. Yeah, so that's kind of
• 9:10
  something that I just enjoy in general, and then I was trying
• 9:13
  to think of a way to do a giveaway because crazy enough.
• 9:18
  Like a lot of people actually enjoy what I do and I want to
• 9:22
  like be able to give back to people.
• 9:24
  Yeah, for supporting me. So I kind of just like Blended
• 9:27
  those two things together and I was going to just do it in like
• 9:31
  one day. Like here's a giveaway but I
• 9:33
  couldn't really figure out how it would be beneficial to other
• 9:36
  people. So that's where the idea came
• 9:40
  from like, February. I know is a month where
• 9:42
  everybody's very kind of like dialed in on like being in a
• 9:45
  relationship. Finding On body and all that
• 9:48
  stuff. But I think it's also equally
• 9:50
  important to like, love on yourself, especially when you're
• 9:53
  having a lot of external forces telling you other things.
• 9:56
  So that's where the whole idea came from.
• 9:58
  And then I know a lot of really cool women on Twitter who in my
• 10:03
  opinion, embody self-care and embody like standing in who you
• 10:07
  are as a person. So I just reached out to them
• 10:09
  and I was like, hey, would you like to do this with me and they
• 10:11
  were all immediately like yes and so from there, it kind of
• 10:16
  just, you know, No roll. I already had the idea.
• 10:19
  So it was really just about us working together to like make it
• 10:22
  come to life and it's been it's been really cool, really easy
• 10:26
  cuz sometimes it can be kind of stressful when you're doing a
• 10:28
  collaboration on a big scale so it's just been.
• 10:31
  It's just been really nice, really easy?
• 10:32
  Really fun. Yeah, definitely.
• 10:35
  Yeah. Because because that is
• 10:37
  something that I definitely have been enjoying every day because
• 10:41
  because because, y'all have been doing basically a different
• 10:44
  challenge every day, which is Cool.
• 10:48
  Kind of kind of like a really cool way to kind of roll that
• 10:50
  out and I have enjoyed just like every day whenever I get on, get
• 10:55
  on, get on Twitter and stuff and just saying, you know what, the
• 10:59
  challenge for the day is and they have been very, very, very,
• 11:06
  very awesome II. Guess who this is?
• 11:07
  This is the easiest way to easiest way for me to say it and
• 11:12
  it's been fun, just seeing an encouraging also just seeing
• 11:17
  everybody in the community, you know, sharing their thoughts, or
• 11:20
  sharing, whatever is related to the challenge for the day and
• 11:25
  yeah, just getting everybody involved.
• 11:29
  And I definitely agree with what you said to with the whole, you
• 11:33
  know. Making sure that we are taking
• 11:36
  time to make sure that we are okay.
• 11:39
  Because like you said, it's like, yeah, everybody is Roberto
• 11:42
  relationship this and you know more about been no group stuff,
• 11:47
  whatever. But sometimes it's like no you
• 11:50
  got your also to make sure you take time to make sure that you
• 11:53
  yourself. You are okay because you know if
• 11:58
  if you're not okay and then you try to carry that and you're
• 12:01
  carrying that with you when you trying to be with Somebody else
• 12:05
  or interacting with other people, you know, depending on
• 12:09
  what you might have going on or whatever, you know, that might
• 12:12
  kind of I guess for lack of better term like those vibes
• 12:17
  will kind of like permeate and it's like okay you know this
• 12:20
  person you know they're kind of in a weird farc and you know,
• 12:26
  even though you can't see it, you can feel it.
• 12:29
  You know it's something kind of kind of like a oh kind of like a
• 12:33
  four for four. For my bleach fans out there
• 12:36
  like a like a spiritual pressure - spiritual pressure to where
• 12:43
  it's like, okay I can't see it, but I definitely feel like okay,
• 12:45
  there's something going on, there's something going on with
• 12:48
  you, so yeah, yeah, yeah. Self self care is definitely
• 12:53
  super important that we all make sure.
• 12:56
  We, we kind of take take care to pay attention to now.
• 13:02
  I got it I guess. Kind of kind of going off of
• 13:04
  that. Well, I guess like Water would
• 13:08
  have been some things that you maybe find yourself doing to try
• 13:13
  to MMM. Okay.
• 13:18
  So I'm talking about how to word it but I guess basically like
• 13:21
  water like some self-care things that you do for yourself.
• 13:24
  You know, where there be no you've had a crazy week or a
• 13:27
  crazy day or you know, you've recently gone through something.
• 13:32
  What are some things that you learn that you find yourself
• 13:34
  doing to kind of like make sure that you're okay.
• 13:38
  Okay, I'm not going to lie, I'm actually very sucky at taking
• 13:41
  care of myself, which is another reason this challenge has been
• 13:44
  super important for me, but I will say I've noticed, like
• 13:48
  things that I gravitate towards one watching anime.
• 13:51
  The like that's that's something that I really gravitate towards
• 13:54
  when I'm not feeling my best listening to music, like I will
• 13:58
  just like turn off all the lights put on my headphones and
• 14:01
  just like completely just Zonk out to music and then also and I
• 14:07
  this To sometimes knobby self-care eating yummy food.
• 14:11
  I just have to try not to overdo it because I really like to eat
• 14:15
  it. I really like to eat yummy stuff
• 14:17
  when I'm not feeling my best but I just have to try not to overdo
• 14:20
  it. So those are like the three
• 14:21
  things that are all like my go-to news.
• 14:24
  Oh yeah yeah definitely. Yeah, I'm kind of Well, I guess
• 14:29
  some of those things. I'm also kind of similar about
• 14:32
  as well as far as like, you know, having those Comfort anime
• 14:36
  or just Comfort shows 11 that I've that I found myself kind of
• 14:43
  going back to a lot. I'm especially like in like in
• 14:46
  recent recent memory. Whatever is a Craig of the creek
• 14:52
  just because that show it is just Pretty chill, pretty
• 14:57
  wholesome. And it's like, you know what?
• 14:59
  It's nothing too crazy going on. I can just end in especially
• 15:02
  because, you know, they're pretty short there like 10 11
• 15:06
  minutes long. So it's like, you know what, I
• 15:09
  just need to just kind of just decompress for a little bit.
• 15:12
  Let's put on our episode of cricketer Creek, wash that and
• 15:14
  just kind of chill out because and one reason why I brought
• 15:20
  that when I show up kind of killed him out against because
• 15:22
  they recently dropped some more episodes of it.
• 15:25
  On HBO Max the other day I was scrolling through and I was like
• 15:29
  more cricketer Creek. Yay.
• 15:31
  If so say yes of that that show definitely come for one of mine
• 15:36
  as well as also. I have a comfort game that I
• 15:41
  tend to go back to the. I've been playing this game for
• 15:43
  years and years. It's called a Rayman Legends and
• 15:48
  they have like little daily challenges like different like
• 15:52
  little challenge levels. You can play through every day
• 15:54
  and so So that's something that I kind of tend to go back to
• 15:59
  fairly often, especially, you know, if I have had like a
• 16:03
  pretty tough day as okay, I just want some to just pretty chill
• 16:06
  that I could kind of play with that.
• 16:09
  Really thinking about because like I said, I've been playing
• 16:11
  that game on and off for like eight years or something at this
• 16:14
  point and so that that's different been a something that
• 16:20
  I like to do now. You, you mentioned some, some
• 16:24
  with anime. You have any particular anime
• 16:27
  that you find yourself kind of going back to 44 of these times?
• 16:32
  I'm laughing because my comfort anime are considered not
• 16:36
  comforting. What what what you do.
• 16:41
  So the big one that I watch a lot that I consider my comfort
• 16:44
  anime is Parasite. It's just my favorite anime in
• 16:47
  general. Yeah.
• 16:49
  And they'll say yeah like that. So I'll I like to, I like to
• 16:56
  turn that one on and I guess because I've watched it so many
• 16:59
  times is why it's become a comfort anime?
• 17:01
  Because I know what's going to happen, that's so And then also
• 17:06
  like, seeing him grow throughout the show, I don't know.
• 17:09
  That's comforting to me, too. So I really I just enjoy it and
• 17:12
  it's short. It's a very short one that I can
• 17:15
  watch and complete. Like if I take a day to watch,
• 17:17
  it's going to be done. So that's a big one.
• 17:21
  What's another? I would say.
• 17:23
  That's really the main one. I'm gonna, I'm not gonna lie.
• 17:25
  That's the main one that I watch when I just want to just like
• 17:28
  sit and watch something, I also watch made Soma to that's
• 17:31
  another one that I'll put on. I'm just let like lip play well.
• 17:37
  What is it called, maid-sama, I don't think I've seen that one.
• 17:41
  I thought think I'm pissed off Paris.
• 17:42
  Heard of it pounds? Yeah, it's kind of old.
• 17:45
  It's older. Okay, okay.
• 17:47
  And then Kamisama Kiss, I hope I'm saying that right?
• 17:50
  Kamisama Kiss, I watched that one too.
• 17:52
  Okay, it's just, it's just soothing and a little wholesome
• 17:55
  but mostly parasite is the water.
• 17:57
  I'm just like, I'm not feeling good.
• 18:03
  I'm cranking up here. Recite.
• 18:05
  Yeah, so it was with me a I also really enjoy that.
• 18:10
  Enjoy the anime, but I find myself like most time whenever I
• 18:14
  go back to it is usually for one particular episode and one
• 18:19
  particular scene and it is episode 12.
• 18:25
  After I'll just say after the girl dies and they do the
• 18:29
  funeral, he has to fight with the guy at the end when the guys
• 18:33
  like, you know, or you know, like basically like why is he
• 18:36
  not show any emotions? Yeah, yeah that was seen just
• 18:40
  like it's forever in my mind and it's something that I find
• 18:44
  myself, you know, going back to, you know, whenever I think about
• 18:48
  think about parasite that is like one of the like the number
• 18:50
  one, things moments that comes to mind is That scene and, you
• 18:57
  know, the music playing over as the outros going.
• 19:01
  Yeah, anybody watching a listen to this.
• 19:04
  If you have not watched parasite, maximum pause this
• 19:07
  podcast. Go watch it.
• 19:08
  And come back, waiting for is really so good, and I don't hear
• 19:12
  enough people talk about it. Like, yes, really, just is so
• 19:15
  good. Like, and people talk about all
• 19:17
  the time, like, in character developments were characters
• 19:20
  have that major switch. That's one anime where it's
• 19:23
  just, it's done so well, Like you see it coming but you don't
• 19:27
  see it coming. Yeah yeah yeah yeah that that is
• 19:31
  definitely true about that series.
• 19:35
  I've been debating about oh no, I might collect some of the
• 19:39
  manga because because there is my first one about my first one,
• 19:43
  like two weeks ago, nice, I saw I'm trying to think.
• 19:50
  Because it's funny they were talking about Paris i--'cause I
• 19:53
  saw something recent I want to say that I think that they might
• 19:56
  be getting ready sometime this year, I think doing a another if
• 20:02
  I remember correctly. I think that they're going to be
• 20:04
  doing a hardcover color version of parasite.
• 20:12
  Yeah about that. I think that's what I heard.
• 20:14
  I'll have to double check it out after after we after we finish
• 20:18
  up. But but that's another wise kind
• 20:21
  of like fresh in my mind was I saw that headline.
• 20:24
  I was like, wait what? Give me more things to buy?
• 20:29
  I don't really enjoy the color pages though, to be honest.
• 20:31
  I don't really enjoy the color pages of it but it's still.
• 20:34
  I bought my first one and I'm like, yes it's time.
• 20:37
  It was time for me to start the collection.
• 20:39
  Yeah, I want to pick up the Thus I guess I don't know if I don't
• 20:44
  know if I'll call them spin-offs or sisters were is this like a
• 20:48
  is to of there are things called things like parasite.
• 20:51
  I want to thank em and parasite. Something else I know for sure,
• 20:58
  I know one of them was like a collaboration project between a
• 21:01
  bunch of other manga Arthur's doing like many stories within
• 21:08
  the parasite world. And if I remember correctly I'm
• 21:12
  not super into manga but yeah yeah but that's because because
• 21:16
  when I was at the store whatever a while back I saw those covers
• 21:21
  and I was like, I'm not okay. This is not the main series of
• 21:24
  something else. I'll look it up and I'll shoot
• 21:29
  you some links when we're done. Oh.
• 21:33
  But yeah. But I'm trying think I've tried
• 21:35
  think, is there anything else that I do for myself?
• 21:38
  Well, I guess because we're talking about what manga stuff I
• 21:43
  guess for me something that's kind of like Therapeutic for me
• 21:47
  sometimes is just going to a bookstore, whether it's half
• 21:52
  price bugs or Barnes and Nobles or whatever.
• 21:56
  And even if I don't necessarily buy nothing, whatever just being
• 21:58
  in that atmosphere and just kind of just walking around, just
• 22:02
  taking my time, coming through the shelves for, maybe an hour
• 22:06
  or two with no other destruction and it's even better if there's
• 22:11
  hardly anybody else in the section.
• 22:14
  So I'm not having to worry about scooching over because somebody
• 22:16
  See something or arrows. I had a guy had the whole Market
• 22:19
  section to myself. It's brown.
• 22:23
  Yes. So by that that that's a have
• 22:25
  been something that I've found peaceful for me as well as also.
• 22:33
  Carving out my own space because you know as you all know with
• 22:39
  our people here in my house, it gets pretty noisy.
• 22:41
  A lot of times and so that's what ended.
• 22:45
  So I always had like a little like a small spots up in my
• 22:49
  closet for when I recorded. But maybe I think like a couple
• 22:54
  months ago. Yeah, yeah.
• 22:56
  Yeah. Because there's during the
• 22:57
  holiday break, I had a switch of stuff running my closet because
• 23:02
  I was I was like, you know, I want to kind of like have like a
• 23:04
  little bit more permanent set up spot, or whatever.
• 23:08
  And that's why I made this little corner that I'm in now.
• 23:11
  So I can kind of know, aside from coming in to do podcasts,
• 23:14
  whatever. It's also just a place where I
• 23:16
  can just come in put on my headphones and watch anime on my
• 23:19
  monitor or yeah just chill out away from the noise because
• 23:24
  trying to chill and watch my shows out there work in my room
• 23:27
  or whatever kids running through the house.
• 23:31
  You know why? Life in whatever strings or
• 23:34
  especially, especially if she's playing Apex or something very
• 23:39
  intense. She be cussing up a storm and I,
• 23:43
  you know, it's bad when I'll be when I'll be able to get on tire
• 23:45
  light. Hey, chill with the language.
• 23:49
  My ma'am. We have kids because they don't
• 23:54
  need to be hearing this language.
• 23:57
  I love that and most people are surprised whenever they hear.
• 24:03
  May said about her, because You know at a glance.
• 24:07
  Oh she's so sweet. She look so innocent but as I
• 24:10
  hey catch our own Apex or some other some other, you know,
• 24:16
  competitive thing, whatever, and you like, whoa is this the same
• 24:20
  person brings out the Demon? I've heard Apex can bring out
• 24:25
  the the monster and people say, yes, yes, that's right, all
• 24:30
  right. Hey, have phones, Crank It Up.
• 24:36
  Let's kind of zone out, so I guess.
• 24:41
  Talking about what the with the self-care challenge stuff again.
• 24:45
  What is best up some of the fabric ones that y'all have that
• 24:49
  you've done so far. Okay, so the one that we did
• 24:53
  yesterday where you give affirmation to somebody else, I
• 24:56
  just I love that. I love aggressive love and I
• 24:59
  love showing my friends aggressive love.
• 25:02
  So I like that one a lot. Also, we did one where it was
• 25:05
  like read some smut or what? Yeah.
• 25:15
  Arsenal. And then also, And then also
• 25:21
  what was another one. I really like one that's coming
• 25:24
  up that I'm really excited. About is create an anime
• 25:28
  inspired dish. So yeah, I'm really excited
• 25:32
  about that because I wanted to get one of those little rice
• 25:35
  ball maker things. I've been wanting to get one and
• 25:38
  now I have an excuse. Yes!
• 25:41
  Yes, I'm excited about that too. Okay, we've got some shokugeki.
• 25:46
  No Moody Just put the apron the headband.
• 25:52
  Yes, yes, everything, everything about that.
• 25:56
  Yes. Maybe at some point, add that to
• 26:01
  your to your cosplay list, UCC meeting with, with the plates,
• 26:05
  and the headband. Oh, yeah.
• 26:10
  Actually gotten a request to do a cosplay from Nice.
• 26:14
  Okay. Okay.
• 26:15
  We'll see though. Well, yeah, only I've only
• 26:17
  watched like the first season of that.
• 26:19
  Those, okay. Okay, yeah, that that's going to
• 26:25
  be, that's going to be a fun and interesting one.
• 26:28
  It takes to see how could that that, that, that say that's one
• 26:32
  thing I enjoy about following you, and what you do is just you
• 26:37
  be coming out with these creative ideas and stuff, which
• 26:41
  we definitely touching a little bit more in a minute.
• 26:44
  But that's, you know, that that has been like, like one of the
• 26:48
  awesome things. Like I said, by following you
• 26:50
  and just just been in the community that were in.
• 26:54
  It's just seeing all the creative ideas and stuff that
• 27:00
  people come up with to where it's like, wow, that is.
• 27:03
  So freaking awesome. Never even know, never crossed
• 27:06
  my mind or or it is one of those things where it's like when you
• 27:10
  think about it, it's like obviously or you know, sometimes
• 27:13
  depending on What the idea, whatever is or sometimes it's
• 27:16
  like, wow. Okay.
• 27:18
  You know, how did that come to mind or whatever?
• 27:20
  So but but yes to stuff like that is is definitely a reason
• 27:26
  why. I like I said I've been enjoying
• 27:28
  the challenge, just to see you know what different ways.
• 27:32
  Y'all kind of mix things up because know it it is a mix of,
• 27:36
  you know, ideas like that towards I anime inspired Dish as
• 27:40
  well, as even even stuff like hey drink water.
• 27:44
  You know, that that's what they have just enjoys, just the, the
• 27:48
  range and the spectrum of different self-care things
• 27:53
  because carjackers self-care is, it is in one sense, it is a
• 28:00
  simple word or a simple phrase, but it's also a phrase that
• 28:05
  carries a lot of weight and a lot of meaning behind it.
• 28:10
  Because, you know, like I said, when you look at the word is
• 28:12
  okay self-care. But then, It's like once you
• 28:14
  actually start to break it down and really think about it
• 28:18
  because like you said, well I got I am also not the best ads
• 28:24
  when it comes to self care and things of that nature.
• 28:28
  Cuz you know, I sometimes, you know, I'll let me know.
• 28:34
  Sometimes I kind of get super worried about everything that's
• 28:38
  kind of going on around me, especially, you know, being
• 28:42
  Bene, Bene, Bene, family, man, myself, Now, open these kids, my
• 28:46
  wife other friends and family work, honestly, even the podcast
• 28:52
  in the context of that, I do that, sometimes it's like, okay,
• 28:56
  hey no, you need to just chill robber and just not do nothing,
• 29:02
  you know? Just take a day, take an hour,
• 29:04
  whatever the case may be to kind of reset yourself cuz because
• 29:10
  because I had one of those moments last night, cuz I
• 29:16
  thought they could have because I came home from work and the
• 29:19
  something came up to where I had to go on that long drive that I
• 29:22
  imagined and so I ended up getting back pretty late, but I
• 29:28
  was like, man, I just picked up this freaking brand new guy.
• 29:30
  I just picked up a horizon forbidden, West last night and I
• 29:33
  was like, I want to play it. I want to play it as well as
• 29:37
  also wanted to review, a manga had just read.
• 29:40
  I'm like I want to do these things.
• 29:42
  I can stay on schedule with like what my role.
• 29:46
  You know, in my mind, my schedule for you know trying to
• 29:49
  have certain content out on certain days and stuff whatever.
• 29:52
  But it kind of just reached the point where like I'm up here
• 29:55
  dozing off playing the game and I'm just like, okay no I need to
• 30:01
  just stop just lay down and just take that time saying, no is
• 30:09
  like one of the most impactful forms of self-care like just
• 30:12
  knowing when to just be like nope like either a I don't want
• 30:16
  to do this or it's, this is not going to benefit me, or allow me
• 30:20
  to be my highest self at this point of time.
• 30:22
  And that's okay. That is totally.
• 30:24
  Okay, yes for sure. Cuz cuz sometimes I'll be like,
• 30:29
  I'll be like, man, I am. I am working harder at this
• 30:32
  contest of than I do in my day job, and I'm not gonna pay for
• 30:37
  this so, so sometimes I'd be like, you know?
• 30:41
  But, you know, I think that is just the thing of You know,
• 30:47
  being in this and a space in this community and just kind of
• 30:54
  getting that that creative fire lit under your sometimes two or
• 30:58
  sometimes they push you to like me.
• 30:59
  Okay oh they're okay they're doing awesome stuff over there
• 31:03
  whatever pushes me to want to do awesome stuff over here but also
• 31:07
  knowing hey slow it down because like you said you also don't
• 31:12
  want to try to do something for the sake of trying to meet this.
• 31:16
  Arbitrary deadlines. And then it's like actually that
• 31:20
  wasn't good or, you know, or I might have to re-record that cuz
• 31:25
  you know, I didn't really put all my thoughts or everything.
• 31:28
  I really wanted to intern at the moment and so it's like, okay,
• 31:32
  take the break now. And then, do do good things, you
• 31:36
  know, at once versus doing something poorly, then having to
• 31:42
  do it again. You know, doing something just
• 31:45
  for the sake of Doing it. And it's not, you know,
• 31:47
  impactful or it's not in alignment with where you really
• 31:51
  want to because I think we get caught up in that as creatives
• 31:54
  to like just doing all kinds of random, collaborations and
• 31:57
  creating all kinds of random content just for the sake of
• 32:00
  doing it versus like trying to stay stay in your lane.
• 32:04
  Yeah, exactly. And and that that is definite
• 32:07
  best something that I've kind of still struggle with from time to
• 32:11
  time but definitely have gotten better about compared to when I
• 32:15
  first They're doing and the podcast and stuff okay's, it
• 32:19
  kind of reached a point where I was like, you know what, I don't
• 32:22
  need to talk about just example, whenever like, like I tend to
• 32:28
  keep our pretty pretty good with a lot of the weekly Shonen Jump
• 32:33
  series, like know the one piece and my hero stuff like that or
• 32:35
  whatever, but it kind of came to a point to where it was.
• 32:40
  Okay, I can still read it or whatever on my own but it
• 32:44
  doesn't mean that I need to talk about about it every episode
• 32:48
  just because sometimes it's a high.
• 32:49
  Yes, I enjoyed reading it but I don't really have nothing to add
• 32:53
  to the conversation. I don't have nothing to say and
• 32:55
  that is okay, because it is a million people out here,
• 32:57
  especially with those type of series.
• 32:59
  It is a million people talking about those Shonen Jump series
• 33:04
  every week, go watch them, let's throw, this is one of them, and
• 33:09
  I'll kind of find my own thing, you know, that down a little bit
• 33:14
  more passionate about Talking about stuff because like you
• 33:18
  said like, cuz yeah, that is definitely just and I guess that
• 33:23
  kind of just kind of comes to the whole thing of like it is a
• 33:25
  it is okay, to change into pivot you know, just because you
• 33:29
  started doing something, does it mean that you're beholding to
• 33:33
  continue to do it? If you get to a point where it's
• 33:35
  like, you know you've burnt out on it or you just like you know
• 33:38
  what, I just want to do this anymore.
• 33:40
  It is okay. I think that's the cool thing
• 33:43
  about like this whole like being a content creator.
• 33:45
  Like, it's Your decision, like you don't work for somebody,
• 33:49
  else's your decision and you want to do things that you're
• 33:52
  passionate about, you want to create content that you're
• 33:54
  passionate about. That's what's going to keep you
• 33:56
  energized and that's what people are going to gravitate towards
• 33:59
  because like you said, if you're the person who's just like doing
• 34:02
  what everybody else is doing, that's not your special place as
• 34:05
  a content creator. That's not going to be why
• 34:08
  people gravitate towards your content.
• 34:10
  It's going to be the special things that you're specifically
• 34:12
  into. That's going to make people come
• 34:14
  back and listen because that's you like Like you're creating
• 34:17
  content. That's true to yourself.
• 34:19
  Yes. Exactly.
• 34:21
  And and I guess, I guess, I guess I'm out of a kind of dive
• 34:25
  into a bit more since we kind, of naturally went this way, kind
• 34:30
  of touching on a bit of like, the, the community building
• 34:34
  aspect of it because that that is definitely been.
• 34:37
  Once I guess it's something that I've just been just I think
• 34:44
  words are hard but you know, that has just been something
• 34:52
  that has been interesting, watching, both you and Jess.
• 34:58
  Other people are just in general, especially getting into
• 35:03
  content Christian stuff myself because I think a lot of times
• 35:08
  people think they have an idea of what content Creation is what
• 35:14
  it means, what it means to build up a community and stuff until
• 35:18
  you are actually in it and you're trying to do it yourself.
• 35:21
  Because it's a lot of things that, you know, I thought I knew
• 35:26
  maybe thought I understood but now that I'm behind the curtain
• 35:31
  and On the Dark Side. Yes.
• 35:34
  And and, and, and doing this stuff.
• 35:37
  It's like, okay, you know, now granted of course, you know,
• 35:40
  there's some things on my. Okay, I wasn't too far off.
• 35:43
  Off on my thoughts on this thing but there are other things
• 35:46
  whereas I okay I had no clue about their or whatever the case
• 35:49
  may be so with you and you know your community building style or
• 35:58
  actually okay I guess I guess that's where I kind of start
• 36:00
  off. What is kind of like your
• 36:04
  process or I guess like thought process in a sense of one
• 36:10
  whenever you are building a building up a community or
• 36:13
  starting up something like it's no thoughts just Vibes.
• 36:18
  If I'm being 100% honest, the thoughts come afterwards.
• 36:22
  So when I first started creating content I was really just doing
• 36:26
  it so I could have people to talk to because I don't have
• 36:29
  anybody in my life that's into anime like honestly.
• 36:32
  My parents think I'm fucking weirdo.
• 36:36
  So I started doing it. So I could just have people to
• 36:38
  talk to and communicate with. So from there, I realize people
• 36:43
  actually like this. I actually like this and then
• 36:46
  that's when the thoughts come in.
• 36:47
  So I kind of approach everything like that.
• 36:49
  I'll get an idea and I'll be like, yeah, I want to do this so
• 36:52
  I'll just run with it. And then as I'm running, I'll
• 36:54
  start trying to build why I think it's important not just to
• 36:59
  myself but why I think it'll be important to other people and I
• 37:01
  try to A channel that and be intentional with the way I move
• 37:05
  from there, if that makes sense. Yeah, you're definitely.
• 37:09
  And and I feel like like the the starting point is definitely a
• 37:15
  big thing. Oftentimes a big hurdle for a
• 37:19
  lot of people because a lot of times because because I remember
• 37:24
  back last summer I had a like a They'll tend to did like like a
• 37:30
  little, a little mini episode talking about that how sometimes
• 37:36
  bash and close my door, please. Vash because my door.
• 37:44
  Thank you. So it is all yelling took about
• 37:48
  40 minutes for Yonder to great, great grace.
• 37:52
  That's what this presents. It was looking for you, probably
• 37:55
  he's, like, hold up, something's not right.
• 37:57
  I know, I heard the little pitter-patter of feet so but but
• 38:05
  yes, but yes, I saw. So I did a thing just talking
• 38:08
  about just that Writing process because a lot of times people do
• 38:14
  have so many freaking amazing ideas and thoughts and stuff.
• 38:17
  But the starting point is honestly sometimes the hardest
• 38:22
  thing to do to, you know, whether it be you know you
• 38:27
  writing a book or making a YouTube video or whatever it is
• 38:32
  that you're wanting to do. Just a lot of times just doing
• 38:35
  it while on paper sounds simple, but it can sometimes just be
• 38:40
  like The biggest mental hurdle for for for a lot of us to kind
• 38:45
  of get over and with with what that kind of thought process or
• 38:51
  whatever is with you starting stuff.
• 38:54
  Is that something that you've always been good at just start
• 38:56
  us up? Or is it something that you've
• 38:58
  kind of figured out along the way?
• 39:00
  And now you just kind of more like, okay?
• 39:01
  Yeah I'll just do it. No, that's something.
• 39:04
  I actually still struggle with. That's why my podcast is sitting
• 39:08
  10 episodes. When I was supposed to launch in
• 39:10
  January, We're so I'm a fairly impulsive person.
• 39:15
  I will say that which is a good and bad thing.
• 39:19
  I've grown up a lot so I can be a little bit more like I said,
• 39:23
  intentional with my impulses but no yeah definitely still the
• 39:27
  mental hurdle because I'm also very concerned about how I do
• 39:32
  things. Not for other people so much.
• 39:34
  All right. I like I like to be.
• 39:37
  Let's do things in a certain way and I like for things to feel
• 39:40
  good to me, Me or like I like for myself to be represented in
• 39:44
  a way that makes sense to me. So some things I'm just like,
• 39:48
  man, it'll be fine like Senpai Saturdays.
• 39:50
  I just started out of nowhere and I've just been running with
• 39:53
  it because it's like, people are enjoying it.
• 39:54
  It's not bothering me. I'm having a good time so we'll
• 39:57
  just keep doing it. Yeah.
• 39:58
  Go ahead comes to the podcast. The podcast is something that
• 40:01
  I've really wanted to do for a really, really long time.
• 40:04
  And it's something that I'm really passionate about and I
• 40:06
  want to do it the right way. You know, I want to do it in a
• 40:10
  way that Is going to like feel real and it's not going to feel
• 40:13
  like, hey, I'm trying to be and I'm a podcaster.
• 40:17
  Listen to my recommendations about anime that I watch.
• 40:19
  I wanted to be just, you know, something more than that and
• 40:21
  something different. So I've taken a lot longer to
• 40:25
  think about it because I wanted to, when I start, I want it to
• 40:29
  be something that I've wanted to be the make sense.
• 40:33
  So, yeah, I've definitely been having a mental block with that.
• 40:35
  Long story short, something's no, something's definitely yes,
• 40:40
  I have a Hard time. Yeah, I definitely get where
• 40:46
  you're coming from on that point because because I also whenever
• 40:50
  I do certain things there there are certain things that I do are
• 40:58
  very intentional, you know to to somebody on the outside.
• 41:02
  It's like okay, why did he post this review on this day or time
• 41:06
  or whatever? But to me it's like I have a
• 41:10
  plan. There there's a plan, you know,
• 41:12
  you might not see you might not know, but Robert has a plan, you
• 41:18
  know, just because because I agree with you, there are
• 41:22
  definitely certain things where it's like, okay.
• 41:24
  I want this to be done a certain way versus you know other things
• 41:30
  where like you said I like yes. There can be something smells
• 41:32
  like. Yeah sure, yeah, okay, yeah.
• 41:33
  I'll just do that. It's maybe like a little bit
• 41:35
  smaller. Low maintenance thing, I can
• 41:38
  just kind of just I don't want to say that.
• 41:41
  I don't say toss it out there that sounds really bad but but
• 41:45
  yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything's going to have some
• 41:49
  thought to it. But yeah, but because As a
• 41:55
  matter of fact, prime example, like I said, this would be long
• 41:59
  past about something that's on this discussion.
• 42:01
  Gold yard, have already seen this in this, what already
• 42:03
  happened? But I had today, put up a review
• 42:07
  for Mama Akuma volume 1. Very, very awesome little manga,
• 42:14
  I read the other day, but and this is no little peek behind
• 42:19
  the curtain of why Robert did what he did for that today.
• 42:23
  So my, my, my process of what led me here is.
• 42:31
  I have picked up this volume. Maybe a couple weeks ago now.
• 42:39
  Well when you're here this would be a couple weeks ago minute.
• 42:42
  I picked it up whatever one day coincidence toward the Stars
• 42:45
  aligned to wear when I did the episode with with Mama loves
• 42:51
  manga coincidentally and I don't know if this was the Stars, the
• 42:55
  universe, whoever talking to me because literally the day before
• 43:00
  I recorded with her, on my way home from work, something was
• 43:03
  like hey stop by your comic book store and just browse around the
• 43:06
  manga section just to see browse around.
• 43:09
  Across that I had never seen it before.
• 43:11
  Never heard of her before. Weather.
• 43:12
  Synopsis my okay, this sounds very wholesome.
• 43:15
  Let's get talking talking with Mama loves manga.
• 43:18
  The next day on the podcast. I mentioned this manga
• 43:22
  coincidence. She also recently got it, got a
• 43:25
  copy of it or whatever. So that's part of the
• 43:27
  conversation. I'm okay.
• 43:29
  So now I'm putting it up today because if you listen to the
• 43:33
  episode this week when that dropped, hey, we talked about on
• 43:38
  that podcast. Make sense for me to drop it
• 43:42
  same week and also Volume 2 of that is coming out next week.
• 43:46
  So that is the thing. Yes, that is my process for that
• 43:51
  tears. Okay, I talked about it on this
• 43:52
  thing, drop the review. And hey, anybody that might be
• 43:56
  searching for news about Volume 2 or whatever.
• 44:00
  Might come across volume 20. What are people saying about
• 44:03
  volume 1, boom, there goes Dan need to talk, so it's things
• 44:06
  like that, you know, of The attention sometimes but by High
• 44:12
  stuff and I also I find that sometimes to be fun with doing
• 44:21
  this country. Christian stuff is just getting
• 44:24
  an idea for something or or even maybe finding a new anime that
• 44:30
  you want to watch or game you want to play, whatever the case
• 44:33
  may be, whatever. And sometimes finding out
• 44:36
  finding fun, interesting ways to either talk about it or to do a
• 44:42
  collaboration around it or whatever the case may be,
• 44:46
  because that, that's why a lot of times I'll reach out to
• 44:51
  different people. But hey, I don't know when, but
• 44:55
  would you ever be interested in collaborating with me?
• 44:59
  You know if they give me a yes is that okay?
• 45:02
  I have them on my list of potential people and who knows?
• 45:06
  It could be a week. It could be months down the line
• 45:10
  and something comes up and it's like, oh, I want to talk about
• 45:13
  this thing. Oh, Moody is also interested in
• 45:17
  this series are very passionate about the series.
• 45:19
  Let me hit her mod because she did say that she would like to
• 45:22
  collaborate with me someday. Let's see if we can, you know,
• 45:25
  work this out or whatever. And so it feels like it is like
• 45:29
  Okay, I guess in a sense like content creation can sometimes
• 45:33
  be like a puzzle piece, you know, it's probably finding okay
• 45:38
  who declare bright with and what to talk about and everything in
• 45:43
  between and it's funny that you said that because that's
• 45:46
  something like me listening to you talk.
• 45:48
  I'm like maybe that's why I'm like some of the stuff is kind
• 45:51
  of effortless for me because I'm always thinking about those
• 45:55
  things. Like I'm always thinking about
• 45:57
  Connections, I'm always thinking about How things relate to each
• 46:00
  other and why? So that that's probably why some
• 46:04
  stuff is easy for me because I do it without really thinking
• 46:08
  about it. Cause I'm always thinking about
• 46:09
  how everything in the world relates to each other.
• 46:12
  Yeah, I like that. That was cool.
• 46:15
  Thank you. Yeah, yeah, that like I said,
• 46:19
  just give you a little peek behind what's going on in this
• 46:22
  brain of mine. Like I said, like, if you see,
• 46:26
  still grow up at a weird time, a random day is like, Like okay.
• 46:30
  Robert. We're what are you doing?
• 46:32
  Is this really random never random Mastermind?
• 46:38
  Yes. Yes that is.
• 46:41
  Yeah. That that is won't one of my
• 46:43
  many monikers or what, what's another word for it epithets?
• 46:49
  Yeah. Sorry my my brain.
• 46:52
  Just thought my man. I've had so many freaking
• 46:54
  nicknames over the years. No.
• 46:58
  What I Not, that's something that's also funny.
• 47:02
  I am not a nickname person. I did not allow people to give
• 47:05
  me nicknames, which is hilarious, that now everyone
• 47:09
  calls me, because that is not my thing.
• 47:12
  But I for the longest time, people would try to give me a
• 47:15
  nickname and I'm like, no, you're not.
• 47:16
  Not giving me a nickname. My name is four letters.
• 47:19
  What do I need a nickname for? Like, my name is short.
• 47:21
  This is, that was my excuse and now I have a nickname, that's
• 47:25
  crazy. I just got it.
• 47:29
  Side tangent. Real quick assistance.
• 47:31
  You brought it up, whatever. How did you come to Moody
• 47:35
  senpai? Okay, so this is out to be
• 47:39
  really embarrassing. So when I first started like
• 47:44
  like trying to get into like anime Twitter and Anime
• 47:47
  Instagram, and stuff like that, I was doing anime music videos.
• 47:51
  That's just what I was doing because that's what I like, I
• 47:54
  love music and I really love the visual aspect of anime.
• 47:58
  So like putting those two together making music videos
• 48:01
  that the song Matches the theme of the anime that was like my
• 48:05
  jam. So my original Anil username was
• 48:08
  Moody. Hatake like so then I was like,
• 48:13
  that's wack. That's lame.
• 48:14
  I don't like that anymore. So that changed it to Moody the
• 48:17
  baby. And I was like, no, that's
• 48:19
  awesome. That's also really wet.
• 48:27
  And so then I landed I landed on Moody some fire it was always
• 48:32
  Moody was always like the basis because like I said before,
• 48:36
  Anime is like what I do this self-care and I've always been
• 48:40
  someone not only just an extremely kind of like neurotic
• 48:43
  and anxious person but also I have a lot of other like, mental
• 48:46
  health, things that I deal with. So navigating that has been
• 48:50
  extremely difficult for me. And I've had people close to me,
• 48:54
  just call me Moody because they didn't Stand like, you know the
• 49:00
  stuff that was going on. So I kind of like use that.
• 49:02
  It took it as like a power word instead of something that used
• 49:05
  to hurt me a lot and then I just slowly figured out what to put
• 49:08
  at the end of it. Yeah.
• 49:11
  Okay. I like that.
• 49:14
  I like that. Sorry the The Moody do baby.
• 49:28
  I used to put it at the end of all my am bees too.
• 49:33
  Or are those still online anywhere on Twitter?
• 49:36
  I mean YouTube anywhere. They're on, they're on
• 49:39
  Instagram. Okay.
• 49:41
  Hmm. All right, are they under mood
• 49:44
  mudita baby? They're under there under and
• 49:50
  I'm not embarrassed anymore. They're under Moody Senpai edits
• 49:53
  because that's where I still do and be sometimes when I feel
• 49:57
  like just like doing something creative, but that doesn't mean
• 50:00
  anything to anybody. So I I still do those.
• 50:03
  Sometimes I post them on that page, okay.
• 50:06
  Oh, that's right. Actually because you did one.
• 50:10
  What was it like fairly recently.
• 50:11
  I think you did one possibly sometimes I just randomly post
• 50:15
  them because it's just, that's something.
• 50:16
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 50:19
  But because because now, because seeing a now you get my mind
• 50:22
  wandering and I'm like, okay, would instead of senpai
• 50:25
  Saturdays to be de baby Saturdays?
• 50:30
  So embarrassing, I thought it was so cool to I really did.
• 50:36
  I thought it was I thought it was slapping.
• 50:37
  I was like that's that's that's the one.
• 50:40
  That's the one right there. It wasn't.
• 50:43
  It was not wearing one of those one of those Wines in in your
• 50:47
  youth. Yes.
• 50:50
  And my use thought. This was cool.
• 50:54
  It's not that that is so funny. Huh?
• 50:56
  I love that. I love that because your Customs
• 50:58
  lot of times this is okay. How did this person come to
• 51:01
  this? This either?
• 51:03
  This where there'd be like, you're all lighter Twitter
• 51:05
  handle or channel, name, or whatever the case may be so that
• 51:09
  okay. Oh, that's fun to know.
• 51:12
  Oh, Man, I'm trying to think. CI qiu off topic.
• 51:19
  I know, I know I know because now I can have my mind just
• 51:22
  keeps going back to it and little Robert and like my brain
• 51:27
  is still giggling like a like a Elementary child.
• 51:32
  Well, I guess I guess I want to just touch on real quick while
• 51:36
  while I'm gathering my thoughts on other things.
• 51:41
  What has been? Okay.
• 51:48
  Sorry, I think, okay, with with Community with Community
• 51:54
  Building staff. I guess with.
• 52:01
  I guess we'll use Twitter for an example or just social media in
• 52:05
  general. What, what is it that you think
• 52:12
  that bringing the people to you? Like like like like what is, is
• 52:18
  it just, you know, the creativity definitely because
• 52:25
  I'm crazy. This is definitely because I am
• 52:33
  a mess and I make other people feel comfortable being a mess.
• 52:36
  I thought long and hard about this.
• 52:37
  I was like, why are all these people here?
• 52:39
  I post like one cosplay a month like wait where are these people
• 52:45
  coming from? But I'm I'm almost 100% sure
• 52:48
  that's what it is, and Trying to get myself more comfortable.
• 52:53
  For my podcast, I've been doing like a lot of other like,
• 52:56
  talking to people and stuff like that.
• 52:58
  And that's been something that they keep bringing up.
• 53:00
  And I'm like, it's really interesting to see how other
• 53:02
  people, you know, perceive what I do online.
• 53:05
  But the questions that I asked has been something that people
• 53:09
  constantly bring up there, like, so I see that.
• 53:12
  You always ask me if he's really random really inappropriate
• 53:15
  questions online. Tell me about why.
• 53:18
  Why And I don't have I don't have a good answer.
• 53:23
  Yeah I just really I really like I think a lot and those are the
• 53:29
  things that I just randomly think about throughout the day
• 53:31
  and I'm just like, About this, I'll listen to a song.
• 53:34
  Like yesterday I asked people about rejection and sometimes
• 53:38
  people think like is something that's personally going on with
• 53:41
  me, most of the time. Absolutely, not most of the
• 53:43
  time. It's just something.
• 53:45
  Something I just randomly came into my head and I want to know
• 53:47
  how the people are thinking. So, I found this song that I
• 53:51
  really really liked and it's about rejection and
• 53:53
  heartbreaking is just really, really sad song.
• 53:56
  And I was just thinking like, how do how do other people deal
• 53:59
  with rejection? Because when I listen to stuff
• 54:01
  for, when I watch stuff, I think about myself.
• 54:03
  A lot because I tell people, I'm self-centered because I'm always
• 54:06
  constantly thinking about myself, so I thought I was
• 54:09
  thinking how do I deal with rejection?
• 54:10
  Like if if someone was to reject me somebody that cared about, or
• 54:15
  if I was trying to do something and I got rejected, what is my
• 54:19
  thought process? When I start trying to think
• 54:21
  about that? And as I was thinking about that
• 54:24
  was like, is this normal do other people feel the same way
• 54:27
  and that's when the Twitter comes.
• 54:29
  Yeah, that's what I got a Twitter.
• 54:31
  I'm like, hey how y'all do with Bridge?
• 54:33
  Section. Like, how do you feel about
• 54:34
  this? Because m is the way I'm
• 54:36
  thinking normal. Tell me.
• 54:37
  Validate me please. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 54:41
  You I feel like there there is. There is a few people that I
• 54:50
  follow you being one of them of course tour.
• 54:53
  I am just like, I know what roll the dice.
• 54:58
  You know what what what what Shenanigans are weekend today,
• 55:01
  is going to be 0 so cosplay. Oh no anime discussion or total
• 55:09
  right? Anime or not anime.
• 55:14
  Chaos, you know, some, some spicy stuff.
• 55:19
  What's going on, you Panda? And Mama loves manga y'all three
• 55:27
  for sure. Kind of like in.
• 55:28
  Like my, you know, my top as far as okay, when I see the name
• 55:33
  come across the timeline. You know, what, what, what do we
• 55:37
  have going on today? And I've heard I heard mama
• 55:43
  loves manga on. She did a space with getting
• 55:46
  animated and she's somebody. I would like to get to know she,
• 55:50
  she seems really smart and really funny.
• 55:51
  Yes. Yes.
• 55:53
  Maybe when we met her were talking last week or yeah, last
• 55:59
  week. Yeah.
• 56:01
  That's she's super fun to to, to talk to, and to get to know, so
• 56:06
  yeah, definitely, yeah, definitely.
• 56:09
  If you get the, if you get the chance yet, she she is.
• 56:12
  Yeah, she she is super fun. That that is, that is the, the,
• 56:17
  the, the best way I can describe her because she's super awesome.
• 56:21
  Mmm. But yeah, cuz cuz cuz Sometimes
• 56:28
  with, with building up communities and things that our
• 56:34
  nature. I guess, I guess like, what has
• 56:38
  been something that has that has surprised you about or I guess
• 56:46
  just kind of in general with the different Communities and
• 56:52
  followers that you've built up. What has been some things that
• 56:55
  have surprised you about, you know, whether it be
• 56:57
  interactions, you pair with people or you know somebody
• 57:01
  hitting you up and reaching out to you.
• 57:03
  What has been just like a couple surprises.
• 57:06
  How open people are willing to be like people are actually
• 57:10
  willing to be pretty vulnerable online and I think a lot of the
• 57:14
  times it's because it doesn't doesn't always feel like it's
• 57:17
  the real world when you're online.
• 57:18
  So people are are capable of like opening up in Way that they
• 57:21
  probably wouldn't in real life. That's been really surprising to
• 57:25
  me and the fact that people are comfortable opening up to me
• 57:27
  because it happens a lot people. Just willing to just like and I
• 57:31
  love that. Like tell me, tell me
• 57:32
  everything. Come, have a seat.
• 57:34
  We'll talk about it. Yeah, that has been really
• 57:37
  surprising. But on the flip side, also the
• 57:39
  same thing. Like, people are willing to be a
• 57:41
  little bit too like willing to cross the line and think nothing
• 57:45
  of it in the same breath, which is yeah.
• 57:48
  Sometimes it's it can be scary. I'm not scary cuz not it's not
• 57:53
  really scary but it can be very uncomfortable.
• 57:56
  Yeah, but one thing that I've also kind of learned is how to,
• 58:01
  like, shift my community, because I think when I first
• 58:04
  started, it was more. So, just like me kind of, like,
• 58:07
  filling really liberated online and just like, doing whatever I
• 58:10
  wanted to do. But as I've become more, serious
• 58:12
  about it, I've learned how to kind of, like, shift my
• 58:15
  community to, where it's no longer kind of like, focused in
• 58:18
  that direction. So I used to do a lot of spicy
• 58:20
  content and Brings a lot of very, very strange people.
• 58:23
  No offense to anybody but it brings a lot of strange people.
• 58:26
  Oh yeah. So I think I've done a
• 58:28
  successful job of is honestly in the last like few months of
• 58:32
  Shifting my content to where it's no longer just like movies,
• 58:36
  really hot to like oh she may actually also have a brain in
• 58:40
  there and have like some things that she has to say thanks.
• 58:43
  But I'm willing to listen to or I'm willing to have an actual
• 58:45
  discussion with her and that's been really cool.
• 58:47
  That's been really surprising that I've been able to do that.
• 58:50
  Yeah yeah and And in granted, of course, I can't pay attention to
• 58:55
  all corners of everywhere at the same time but very briefly.
• 59:03
  I'll mention this whatever I won't get into specifics, but
• 59:06
  could you turn away with with spicy stuff, whatever your disco
• 59:09
  word when it first started, there was a spicy very spicy
• 59:15
  section. Now I hadn't paid attention to
• 59:18
  it for a while and I went back to it like no like Within like
• 59:21
  the last month, whatever and saw that certain corners of it, no
• 59:25
  longer existed. And so I was I was, I was all
• 59:30
  kind of thing, maybe it got a little bit too spicy.
• 59:33
  It was getting, it was getting a little bit too spicy.
• 59:36
  I had to tame them down. I had to, I'm, I'm like, the mom
• 59:39
  of the disk or two people don't know this about me, but I am
• 59:42
  very like, And I give people the mom look in the moms talks a
• 59:48
  lot. So I was like, I get it.
• 59:49
  We're having fun guys but chill out.
• 59:52
  Yeah, chill out. Like we did.
• 59:59
  We tamed it a little bit and the only reason was just because
• 1:00:03
  it's like yes I get it. You feel comfortable.
• 1:00:07
  But everybody does it feel Cold? Yeah.
• 1:00:10
  And this is I don't want to be like this Discord is not for you
• 1:00:14
  to like sell Warren buttocks. Oh yeah, that's what it was
• 1:00:18
  getting to at a certain point. I was just like no we're not
• 1:00:22
  doing that. Like yeah, post post stuff that
• 1:00:24
  you enjoy. You don't have to just post that
• 1:00:26
  all day long. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:00:29
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because yeah.
• 1:00:36
  Yeah, because like I said, like I said, well well, for one, I
• 1:00:39
  had a, I had turn on notifications on for Discord off
• 1:00:43
  my phone for a while because because I got edits a too many
• 1:00:46
  discords and then it was like, okay this is too many
• 1:00:49
  notifications. Someone you know, let me just
• 1:00:51
  mute it and then it was like, oh I had hadn't been, I've been in
• 1:00:56
  there a couple times here and there, but I had a scroll down
• 1:01:00
  and a while, and then I was like, hmm.
• 1:01:02
  Okay, they're just something. Up and, you know, had, you know,
• 1:01:06
  I had to do some cleaner because I do remember, I saw like some
• 1:01:11
  post or something. Whatever about, you know, when
• 1:01:13
  you I think you took it off life, a little Brian's.
• 1:01:15
  I are doing some maintenance, whatever.
• 1:01:17
  And so I was okay I guess that happened maybe during that time
• 1:01:20
  period but okay. Yeah, yeah like I said yeah yes
• 1:01:31
  but but ya cuz ya people can People do be wildin if given the
• 1:01:42
  opportunity to, but, you know, but like, no, just kind of
• 1:01:46
  touching on what you said, well, like the hell with, you know,
• 1:01:50
  like you said that, that people are on the good side of things.
• 1:01:53
  I've been comfortable with being open with certain things,
• 1:01:57
  certain topics, and things like that, which, you know that is,
• 1:02:02
  you know, that's something I've enjoyed about the The suppose
• 1:02:06
  Saturday's that you've been doing is just it has its a
• 1:02:10
  pretty chill. It's a shelf space kind of come
• 1:02:12
  in regardless of what the topic is or whatever.
• 1:02:15
  And you know whether it being know about anime and stuff or
• 1:02:19
  you know like like like the one that you did last week talked
• 1:02:22
  about the The Kinks and things like that that that was, you
• 1:02:26
  know, nice just like say just even just me just kind of just
• 1:02:30
  coming in. They're just sitting in the room
• 1:02:31
  and just listen to the conversation of, you know.
• 1:02:34
  Okay. People kind of being like, hey
• 1:02:36
  hey, you know and no and you been you and And everybody else
• 1:02:42
  just kind of be like, hey yes, this is a safe space, you know,
• 1:02:46
  no judgments whatever, you know, to just come and just talk and I
• 1:02:51
  don't feel like know that is something that we definitely do
• 1:02:53
  need in, you know, in today's world.
• 1:02:59
  In general, it's just to have those safe spaces towards okay.
• 1:03:03
  Yes, you can come here we can you know, talk about whatever.
• 1:03:07
  Have some adult talk but it being For and things like that
• 1:03:12
  because because a lot of times that is like the best way that
• 1:03:17
  sometimes we can learn, not just about other people, but also
• 1:03:20
  learn about ourselves, which know what kind of wrap into back
• 1:03:24
  into the self-care stuff. Because, you know, there might
• 1:03:28
  be certain things that somebody might be talking about that.
• 1:03:33
  You might not realize, like, oh, maybe I am a similar person or I
• 1:03:37
  meant to similar things, but maybe you just, Just didn't have
• 1:03:42
  either none of so maybe like like like the vocabulary or just
• 1:03:46
  the right context to put something into.
• 1:03:52
  So, Yeah. And that's and that's kind of
• 1:03:55
  like the whole point of why I decided to keep them going
• 1:03:58
  because just like everything else when it first started it
• 1:04:02
  was just like just pure chaos. Like we were just in there
• 1:04:04
  drinking and like yelling at each other and and I like sat
• 1:04:11
  back, I did a lot of thinking before the new year started and
• 1:04:14
  I sat back and I was like, if I'm gonna do this, you know,
• 1:04:17
  I've wanted to do something that actually represents stuff that I
• 1:04:20
  care about and pretty much like back to everything.
• 1:04:23
  That we've talked about, I care about people.
• 1:04:25
  I care about creating safe spaces for people.
• 1:04:28
  I care about allowing people to be vulnerable because that's
• 1:04:31
  something that I never really liked felt in my life until I
• 1:04:35
  got much older and I realized how important that is to like,
• 1:04:38
  becoming yourself. If you can't ever like be
• 1:04:41
  vulnerable, you like you said, you don't ever get to learn
• 1:04:43
  about yourself and figure out who you actually are.
• 1:04:46
  And when you figure out who you actually are, that's when the
• 1:04:49
  magic starts to happen, like that's when your life starts to
• 1:04:51
  really like start happen. Yeah yeah, yeah exactly yeah and
• 1:04:56
  yeah I've like I said I've just truly appreciated you as a
• 1:05:03
  person and just getting to know you because yeah, it is.
• 1:05:08
  So wild, just even just me thinking about, you know, I'm
• 1:05:12
  coming up on my one year. So I'm hearing I'm hearing.
• 1:05:20
  Okay, you're waiting. Okay.
• 1:05:25
  Okay, he's laughing. I'm okay, that crying or
• 1:05:27
  laughing but but yeah, I'm coming up on, you know, my
• 1:05:34
  one-year anniversary of doing the podcast and stuff.
• 1:05:37
  So no, it'll be middle of March will be my one year anniversary,
• 1:05:41
  and even in just a year It has been just so amazing.
• 1:05:48
  Just like all the people that I've come across, all the
• 1:05:51
  interactions collaborations just conversations in general,
• 1:05:56
  whether it be on a podcast or just, you know, dming, somebody
• 1:06:01
  texting somebody, whatever the case may be, and that is
• 1:06:05
  definitely like a very appreciative part of this
• 1:06:10
  community. It's just, you know, everybody,
• 1:06:13
  you know, kind of being there for other checking up on each
• 1:06:18
  other and things like that, which which I feel like is
• 1:06:21
  definitely very important because you know, 444 All of us.
• 1:06:29
  You know, everybody know has different situations, you know,
• 1:06:31
  some of us are married, some of us you know single some of us
• 1:06:35
  kids or young older and everything else in between is
• 1:06:41
  still just very nice just you know knowing the okay you know
• 1:06:46
  there are there are more to these connection these online
• 1:06:50
  connections than just all yet. Yes you know we might have all
• 1:06:54
  came together a found each other because o we all Like the
• 1:06:59
  certain series, or we all found each other, because we were
• 1:07:01
  talking about as show or whatever the case may be,
• 1:07:04
  whatever the conversation was that brought us there, but it's
• 1:07:09
  the fact that, you know, being able to, to go that Step Beyond
• 1:07:13
  and actually getting to know the person behind, you know, the
• 1:07:16
  accounts behind the content as all.
• 1:07:19
  Okay. This person is really cool.
• 1:07:21
  They are approachable. I can talk to them or you know,
• 1:07:25
  I can't relate to them has just been Been just super awesome.
• 1:07:29
  Just because I'm pretty sure you know a lot of us have been in
• 1:07:34
  places and spaces in general to where it's like okay I don't
• 1:07:41
  feel comfortable here. I feel like I can't relate to
• 1:07:43
  nobody here. I feel like I'm the only one
• 1:07:46
  which, you know, it is been very awesome.
• 1:07:50
  The, With with just a lot of community still going around our
• 1:07:56
  because I you know you doing Senpai Saturdays and worst in
• 1:08:01
  and blend made doing anime after dark and even Panda doing the
• 1:08:06
  ranking of King spaces for knackles bougie Tabernacle of
• 1:08:10
  boji. And I just love like even if I'm
• 1:08:15
  not just in the room, just chilling, listen and stuff.
• 1:08:17
  Whatever, and somebody comes up to talk, and them being like,
• 1:08:22
  hey I had no clue that there was people like this on Twitter or
• 1:08:28
  in the community and stuff like that, just because it's like I
• 1:08:36
  feel like it's one of those things where it's like, once you
• 1:08:38
  get on this side of the fence and kind of get within the
• 1:08:43
  community, it's like, okay, we see all these conversations
• 1:08:47
  happening all day all the time but before I got a got onto the
• 1:08:53
  side of where I'm at now. Same thing my okay I don't I'm
• 1:08:56
  not really seeing anybody. No it looks like me that talks
• 1:09:01
  like me or are interested in know this.
• 1:09:05
  Show that I'm into and then all of a sudden I was like, oh it's
• 1:09:09
  a lot of y'all. It's just, you know, you just
• 1:09:14
  have to find the hidden door literally, literally.
• 1:09:19
  That's what it is like and I feel the same exactly when I
• 1:09:21
  first like started trying to search for people to talk to
• 1:09:24
  you. Like it's like you're knocking
• 1:09:25
  all around trying to find it and then one day you just like
• 1:09:28
  accidentally walk in and you're like Whoa.
• 1:09:31
  Oh my gosh, look at all these people.
• 1:09:34
  It's we're blessed, like we're really blessed like we're really
• 1:09:38
  blessed to have found. Like a really cool community of
• 1:09:41
  people who just like and everybody is so supportive.
• 1:09:45
  Like everybody wants to see everyone else when there's no
• 1:09:49
  like malicious intent, there's no like negativity and when
• 1:09:52
  there is that those people don't usually like stick around like
• 1:09:56
  they casually take themselves out so it's just Really cool.
• 1:10:01
  Yes, exactly. And and yeah, like I said it is
• 1:10:08
  just like such a beautiful thing.
• 1:10:09
  I could say any time I hear somebody come up in my hey, I
• 1:10:13
  didn't know y'all were here. I'm a follow all of y'all and
• 1:10:17
  see what's going on and stuff because that that sound like
• 1:10:19
  every now and then. I'll just like randomly search
• 1:10:23
  for, you know, I don't know. Tokyo 24th.
• 1:10:30
  Ward, I just mentioned that just as an example, I'll just run
• 1:10:33
  like, you know, randomly search Twitter with just that word and
• 1:10:37
  just see what all tweets and stuff come up or whatever.
• 1:10:40
  And you know I've you know come across from me even I sometimes
• 1:10:45
  when I'm just doing research stuff for maybe a month ago, I
• 1:10:49
  might have read, I'll come across something, whatever and I
• 1:10:52
  might find somebody that talked about it months or years ago and
• 1:10:57
  they got no Another thing and it's just like man like hey I
• 1:11:02
  don't like sometimes I don't care if the Tweet is 6 years
• 1:11:05
  old. I might drop a little comment or
• 1:11:07
  whatever just because it's a hajus.
• 1:11:10
  You know, of course, maybe that person has found other people
• 1:11:13
  that talk about the series or whatever and some point the last
• 1:11:15
  six years, maybe they have it and but but that's just been
• 1:11:19
  like like a very just awesome thing.
• 1:11:21
  Like hey I also just checked out this thing.
• 1:11:23
  Whatever it is really cool, you know, just because we all We all
• 1:11:29
  need each other, we all need somebody.
• 1:11:33
  Because because even like, for myself, that's just been, it's
• 1:11:37
  always so humbling and heartwarming anytime.
• 1:11:41
  Somebody might hit me up and be like, hey, another dad, talking
• 1:11:45
  about manga, or whatever the case may be, or whatever, or
• 1:11:50
  just, just different comments like that or or hey, you know,
• 1:11:55
  thank you for talking about this show or whatever, never heard of
• 1:11:58
  it. Go watch it just those little
• 1:12:00
  things. It's like okay.
• 1:12:02
  Yes. And and and that is why I enjoy
• 1:12:07
  doing the stuff that I do because of, you know, of course,
• 1:12:12
  the first and foremost, I'm doing it for myself, but also
• 1:12:16
  for anybody after they might come across me or whatever and
• 1:12:19
  Bell, I okay. There's somebody else that
• 1:12:22
  whether it be a thing of oh, another dad or another black,
• 1:12:26
  man, or whatever. I BR, hey somebody else that
• 1:12:30
  likes this series that I thought nobody else will talk about or
• 1:12:32
  whatever. There is somebody else out there
• 1:12:35
  that you know, that I can find that connection and stuff with.
• 1:12:41
  Yeah, I think that's also how we have all ended up on the side of
• 1:12:47
  Twitter. Because when I'm listening to,
• 1:12:48
  you talk like, like, Bland and may worship obviously, I'm like
• 1:12:51
  the biggest fan girl of them forever and I probably always
• 1:12:55
  will be. They are the same way, like,
• 1:12:57
  Community is really important. Everyone else that I talked to,
• 1:13:00
  that's kind of like, in our little, in our space, same
• 1:13:03
  thing, kimono Community is really important, like, making
• 1:13:05
  people feel the scene is really important, reaching out to other
• 1:13:08
  people who like anime and pulling the men is really
• 1:13:11
  important. I think that's how we've all
• 1:13:13
  kind of ended up together because people always talk about
• 1:13:16
  how there's like the toxic side of Twitter and I'm like I may
• 1:13:20
  have been there for like two seconds but I have not like I
• 1:13:22
  don't ever see any of that stuff anymore.
• 1:13:25
  Like there might be some toxic food takes but It's definitely
• 1:13:31
  some toxic food takes but I that's it.
• 1:13:33
  Like everything else is like it's mad.
• 1:13:35
  Love. I love it.
• 1:13:36
  Yes. And one thing and I'm also just
• 1:13:38
  appreciate it like cuz cuz honestly I think I'm turmeric.
• 1:13:43
  Either you or parent or maybe both of y'all.
• 1:13:45
  I think one of the one of the ways that I found y'all was
• 1:13:49
  because of everybody talks about everybody on everybody's content
• 1:13:54
  whatever. And so, I think I might have
• 1:13:56
  been either listen to either blend of May or might check or
• 1:13:59
  some And I kept no keep hearing moody this Moody, they're like,
• 1:14:05
  you know, and it makes you feel like who is this person I want
• 1:14:10
  to know who it is. Moody person is, you know, and
• 1:14:14
  you know but but like I said I think that's just like the
• 1:14:16
  awesome thing is, you know, everybody know does their best,
• 1:14:23
  to make everybody feel included. And talking about each other on
• 1:14:29
  our content stuff, whatever like that, it just, it just continues
• 1:14:32
  to build and Foster that relationship because because,
• 1:14:36
  you know, you talk about somebody just casually like oh
• 1:14:39
  light light light, you know, like it's your sibling that
• 1:14:43
  you've known for your whole life type of thing and it just in it
• 1:14:47
  just makes that that's what makes A good conversation is
• 1:14:52
  okay. Yeah, Moody today talking about
• 1:14:55
  this show that are done and then it's like, okay, who is this
• 1:14:59
  person? Or who is this YouTube channel,
• 1:15:01
  or this podcast, whatever I need to go find out and, you know,
• 1:15:05
  you find that person you connect and then oh, that might lead you
• 1:15:08
  to even more discoveries and more people and stuff like that.
• 1:15:13
  So, but yeah. But I know, I know, we're kind
• 1:15:17
  of going a little bit long. I don't want to hold you too.
• 1:15:20
  Longer. So I kind of just want to run a
• 1:15:21
  wrap things up. I guess just kind of just in
• 1:15:26
  general, like, what has been some some shows that you've been
• 1:15:31
  watching lately or I guess anything that you might have
• 1:15:35
  been doing in general that that, you know, that you're enjoying,
• 1:15:41
  okay? So I've already told you that,
• 1:15:44
  I've kind of not given up on on weekly stuff, not giving up on
• 1:15:49
  seasonals, but if Just been too hard for me to keep up.
• 1:15:53
  Your girl is working two jobs at this point.
• 1:15:55
  Unfortunately, because I'm trying, I'm trying to save for
• 1:15:58
  some stuff that I really really want, and I know that I could
• 1:16:02
  take a long time to do it, or I could just, like, bite the
• 1:16:04
  bullet for a few months and get it taken care of that.
• 1:16:07
  That is actually a very, very good because sorry my mind
• 1:16:13
  because for a moment in my Mi, I do two jobs, the same thing.
• 1:16:16
  I'm like, I'm like I have done that over the years.
• 1:16:20
  As well to. Where like, like you says, I
• 1:16:21
  hey, this something needs to get done and I said, okay, I could
• 1:16:25
  do it for a long time at this one or bust my butt for a few
• 1:16:29
  months, and then, okay, back back to normal schedule.
• 1:16:33
  Yeah, that's and so, that's where I'm at right now.
• 1:16:36
  So and it's fine. It's fine.
• 1:16:38
  I cried about it a lot. I'm going to complain about it a
• 1:16:40
  lot because I'm not, it's not what I want to do.
• 1:16:43
  Yeah. But it's what I need to do but I
• 1:16:45
  can't I had to cut out like washing weekly stuff but I have
• 1:16:49
  been watching and we've talked about it.
• 1:16:50
  I have been watching Love of kill which I'm it's getting
• 1:16:55
  good. Yes it's getting good.
• 1:16:58
  I don't I still don't really like the main couple had
• 1:17:02
  something about neither of their personalities it's not doing it
• 1:17:04
  for me but that's how I'm the story.
• 1:17:06
  The story is interesting enough. Yeah.
• 1:17:08
  Um also I'm watching Tokyo 24th board which we've also talked
• 1:17:12
  about and that is yeah it's worth the watch as well.
• 1:17:19
  And then the last Thing that I just recently watched and I had
• 1:17:23
  to look up the title because I pronounce it wrong every time.
• 1:17:27
  Daikichi die, chi, chi. The I'm being harassed by the
• 1:17:31
  sexiest man of the year. Me and some of the other girls
• 1:17:36
  on Twitter that are in, like self-care Senpai with me.
• 1:17:39
  Yeah, we're all. So, we're watching that and it's
• 1:17:41
  a boy love, but it's a grown up boy.
• 1:17:43
  Love, which is it's usually like high school kids when it's boil
• 1:17:47
  of. Yeah.
• 1:17:48
  But these are like, like 85 Plus people or I think 20 plus
• 1:17:53
  people. So it's been really, really
• 1:17:54
  interesting and spicy. So if you like spicy stuff is
• 1:17:59
  very spicy. And then the last thing I'm
• 1:18:02
  reading flowers of evil, okay? Okay.
• 1:18:07
  It's pretty good. I'm trying to think I want to
• 1:18:10
  say, I need to look this up super quick because I want to
• 1:18:13
  say the from see flowers of evil, there's two flowers of
• 1:18:18
  evil mangas though. So I'm reading the one, well,
• 1:18:21
  I'm reading both technically because I accidentally started
• 1:18:24
  one, when I was looking for the other, but I'm reading the one
• 1:18:27
  that's about the siblings that are twins.
• 1:18:30
  Okay, that might not be too to do.
• 1:18:36
  I think that might not be the one I'm thinking about, then
• 1:18:41
  there's another other one was made into an anime too.
• 1:18:46
  Hmm. All right.
• 1:18:47
  Well now the cuz cuz the the one I'm thinking about this can be
• 1:18:52
  very awkward. I don't know because my freaking
• 1:18:54
  light. Yeah that's the other one.
• 1:18:58
  That's how kind of what and I started that one but I that's
• 1:19:02
  not the one I was looking for. Okay reason I started reading
• 1:19:05
  the other one is because it's about like twins but there's a
• 1:19:08
  little bit of incest going on but not in like it's not the
• 1:19:12
  main part of the story, but one of the characteristics Is a
• 1:19:15
  little bit off kilter and I like unhinged female character.
• 1:19:19
  That's why I started reading it and it's a pretty good story so
• 1:19:23
  far. It's a short read.
• 1:19:24
  It's already completed. I was trying to find something
• 1:19:27
  to complete for the 100 Comic challenge.
• 1:19:31
  I have read nothing so far. Okay.
• 1:19:37
  So I was trying to find something that would be kind of
• 1:19:39
  like shortish, yeah, but I would be interested in that would keep
• 1:19:42
  me engaged so I could finish it. And then, I'm also reading boys
• 1:19:47
  of this, which is not finished. It's the only ongoing manga that
• 1:19:51
  I'm reading right now because I can't handle the stress of
• 1:19:53
  ongoing. I think that that want sounds
• 1:19:56
  familiar. Boys, Abyss, that my sounds
• 1:20:00
  familiar and her granny. Maybe I'm out of I'm I said
• 1:20:07

• 1:21:10
  though we're adults, I think it's the name of it.
• 1:21:13
  It's a manga long story short for, from, like little bit of
• 1:21:18
  sort of the synopsis, remember it?
• 1:21:20
  I think it's two women. Met each other at a bar.
• 1:21:23
  They have a little thing happen but then find out that one of
• 1:21:27
  them. He's married and so that leads
• 1:21:32
  to some stuff and so so yes I'm on my own.

• 1:21:42

  Robert self-care. See say I'm tying it all
• 1:21:55
  together. Dad self-care.

• 1:22:18
  that my kids practicing have the games at or whatever is inside
• 1:22:22
  of a mall. So they had they have like a,
• 1:22:24
  the big multi core part attached to the mall.
• 1:22:28
  So I can, I hey, you got practice for an hour or two
• 1:22:31
  hours if you know, if you don't see me, I made a sauce in the
• 1:22:35
  car reading manga or watching TV or down the hallway
• 1:22:40
  Books-A-Million so yeah, so Healthcare.
• 1:22:47
  Yes. Because because because I saw
• 1:22:51
  there were adults the other day when I took my daughter to
• 1:22:53
  practice and I was like, maybe maybe I'll Get in.
• 1:22:58
  I was kind of nervous thinking it over whatever and then it was
• 1:23:00
  like yeah, yeah that think I need a little bit, a little bit
• 1:23:04
  of spice going on right now so I might go back in maybe pick that
• 1:23:10
  up after, you know, had to halftime or something or I love
• 1:23:14
  that for you. Yes.
• 1:23:17
  But it and it's no big secret in the household, my wife knows
• 1:23:21
  because of course it's I think, I don't know if maybe if
• 1:23:24
  sometimes I'm too enthusiastic when I'm like yeah, that's like
• 1:23:27
  going to practice. Like, you're going to the manga
• 1:23:29
  store, aren't you? Maybe?
• 1:23:34
  What's up sign? Close my door, please.
• 1:23:40
  Thank you. So cute.
• 1:23:43
  CJ, just a little shimmy and then run off but anywho, but
• 1:23:53
  yeah, but yeah. So, yeah.
• 1:23:54
  Those are some, some, some dope shows that you're keeping up
• 1:23:57
  with, like, Salman might have to say, I might have to check out
• 1:24:01
  that boys Abyss one soon. But whoa.
• 1:24:07
  Whoa, see. The reason why I had to read
• 1:24:10
  that, best something wholesome, while ago, or another day
• 1:24:15
  whatever because I have read one originally called and side Mari.
• 1:24:20
  I don't know if you've seen or heard of that one.
• 1:24:24
  That's the one that you were talking about where his
• 1:24:28
  something about, like the main character, his family got killed
• 1:24:31
  and then no made a pact with the succubus.
• 1:24:36
  I do know that that one is that's that's succubus and hit
• 1:24:39
  man. No yeah that's why I wish that
• 1:24:42
  all sides little bit of spice in it but I know but did this one
• 1:24:47
  inside Mari and you know, I finished reading it's also
• 1:24:52
  completely serious and then the reason why I was asking you
• 1:24:54
  about the flowers of evil, because the one I showed you the
• 1:25:00
  author of that one also did inside Mar.
• 1:25:03
  Okay, he does a lot of psychological stuff because
• 1:25:06
  actually I think he also did Oh yeah.
• 1:25:10
  He's also the guy that did Blood on the tracks, so which I still
• 1:25:15
  haven't read that one yet, cuz that's on my list.
• 1:25:18
  Is it? That that's what To read.
• 1:25:20
  But I got to have me because every time I see this double
• 1:25:24
  page spread, I'm like I'm not ready to deal with this lady.
• 1:25:29
  So that's like two pages into the book and I was like, yeah
• 1:25:34
  I'm not ready? But um, but yeah, but but inside
• 1:25:37
  Mari basically it's about Seemingly about I just said it
• 1:25:43
  because it's like a mystery type of suit, whatever.
• 1:25:45
  But this I think he's like early twenties guy or whatever.
• 1:25:50
  Basically, over time he kind of became I don't know if
• 1:25:57
  infatuated or interested or whatever word to use in this
• 1:26:02
  girl. She's like she's like an older
• 1:26:04
  teen girl, or whatever. Because they always teach other
• 1:26:07
  at this, like, like local convenience, store, whatever.
• 1:26:09
  Every The same time when he's there, looking at magazines
• 1:26:12
  magazines, whatever. She's also always there to one
• 1:26:16
  day, you know, he was following her, he blacks out and then he
• 1:26:22
  supposedly seemingly wakes up the next day in her body.
• 1:26:26
  And so now he is living her life through her perspective and
• 1:26:32
  things get very weird. I've heard interest.
• 1:26:37
  Yes, so yes, I read that one. Like I said, it went some
• 1:26:41
  places. Some, some wild places but I was
• 1:26:48
  like, okay, I need to know come back to Wholesome town that it's
• 1:26:53
  completed. Yeah, yeah, it's completed.
• 1:26:57
  Yeah. That one.
• 1:27:01
  So, Crunchyroll is mangas app, whatever.
• 1:27:06
  I read it on there because you know, I've had my crush
• 1:27:09
  description for a million years which means you get the
• 1:27:12
  Kryptonite of the manga thing with her.
• 1:27:13
  But their manga thing is always been kind of like last
• 1:27:17
  lackluster to say the least. And so I was scrolling through
• 1:27:20
  there because o because somebody that I follow they've been
• 1:27:28
  reading inside. Maria, is where, and they was
• 1:27:30
  reading it at a blazing speed because I The other day, I'm
• 1:27:34
  saying, like I'm inviting you 50 comma, 56, comma Volume 7.
• 1:27:38
  I'm like God, do okay, like, and they was talking about how
• 1:27:43
  there's some weird stuff going on.
• 1:27:45
  Everybody might not like, but it is the mystery of like what is
• 1:27:52
  going on here? Keeps pulling you through.
• 1:27:56
  And so, when I was Googling such like work, right?
• 1:27:58
  Hurried inside, Marie Crunchyroll, piled up and I'm
• 1:28:02
  like, I know for sure, I ain't no, Adam.
• 1:28:03
  Pay for this thing. And then it was a whole, they
• 1:28:07
  have the whole series on the app, it's only 80 chapters
• 1:28:10
  Korea. So, I like that out within a
• 1:28:13
  matter of days, but they knew little tangent.
• 1:28:17
  I don't know when I'm a review that when I got to sit on that
• 1:28:20
  for a while, let it marinate in your - yes.
• 1:28:25
  But any who like? So, I'm a wrap things up because
• 1:28:31
  I know you gotta go, I gotta go, we gotta Got to basketball games
• 1:28:35
  in like 30 minutes. So I'm not 30 minutes in an
• 1:28:38
  hour. Yeah. 30 minutes with kids, you
• 1:28:42
  got to start getting them ready and stuff.
• 1:28:44
  Exactly. So, so, yeah, so I guess, tell
• 1:28:50

• 1:28:54
