Mary Elizabeth Ellis Disobeys Bridger · I Said No Gifts! A comedy interview podcast with Bridger Winegar

• 0:08
  Speaker 1: And I invited you here. I thought I made myself
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: perfectly clear. When you're a guest to my home, you
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guests,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: you're our presences. Presents enough. I already had too much stuff,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: So how do you dare to surbey me?
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Welcome to I said, no gift s. I'm Pritchard Winneger.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Here we are. We're in the studio. Uh, what's going on?
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: I've got back from Japan. Just I don't know fourteen
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: hours ago, I have no idea where I am in
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: space or time. I slept for at least twelve hours
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: last night, and still I don't know where I exist.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Had a lovely time, learned a lot. I've acknowledged something
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: about myself, and it's that I do not like to
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: eat a cold, thick clams. That's one item for me
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: that is a challenge. So what else? An observation I
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: made while they're observing other couples on vacation. I've noticed
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: this before, but I think essentially in every couple on vacation,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: there's one person who's normal and one person who thinks
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: they can take good photographs. And unfortunately that that person
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: is me. I'm the person, and I apologize for everyone
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: else in a couple who's not the person trying to
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: take good photographs, because it seems infuriating to watch your
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: partner try to take a good picture. Pictures all look
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: terrible or all look the same. Who cares? And again,
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: just from this rambling, you can tell I need probably
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: more sleep or less sleep or something. That's fine. I'm back.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: We're back. Is there anything else we need to talk
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: about when this airs? The Chicago show will be happening
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: tomorrow at May twenty third, So if there are still
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: tickets available, you can have like a last minute panic
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: buying one. If there aren't tickets available, you can regret
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: that for the rest of your life. That's some business
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: we can take care of. Patreon continues to exist. Thank
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: you to everybody who's on the Patreon. You can come
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: join us there. What a lovely way to support the show.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: And we're just having an absolute riot over there. Everyone
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: is having the time of their life with the bonus episodes, etc.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Is there anything Let me look, I made a document
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: today to just make sure I covered all of our
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: business because I'm out of my mind. Let's see the
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: other thing I had to say, is I have fifty
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: nine emails I need to go through. No one needs
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: to know that. I don't know why to type that down. Okay,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: let's get into the episode. I love today's guest. Everybody
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: loves her. It's Mary Elizabeth Alis Mary Elizabeth. How are you?
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I'm great. I'm excited to get into your emails.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if we could just start from the first mail here,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: it's about coffee order, I've got coming. Great, we just
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: get into that.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Are a lot of thoughts. I think they should pop some
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: cold wet clams in there for you.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Have you ever had a cold thick clam?
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Well, we also went to Japan and it was
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: incredible and the food was so amazing, and also some
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: of the things felt like it was cartilage.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Yes, there are certain there's just degrees of difficulty with
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: acquired tastes that I thought. I was like, I went
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: into this trip. I've been to Japan before, and I've
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: had plenty of different types of sushi, et cetera. And
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: I went in feeling fairly cocky because my boyfriend is
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: basically someone who can eat hamburgers and chicken fingers, and
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: I thought I can handle this and one of our
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: meals was a very high level difficulty as far as
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: seafood goes, and one of those things was the clam.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Just chewy, hard to get your teeth.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Through, yeah, you know, just truly me gagging, yeah, and
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: having to make my way through it ice water.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because you can't. You can't disrespect people there. You've
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: got to be polite.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: The person the food I was gagging on had, he
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: was looking at me while he had just made the food.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: And I'm so happy for you to be eating it.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: You know though, It's like, do you make a clam?
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: So like you opened the clam, you didn't make it,
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So like it's not on you.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: This one's on like God.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Gone in the ocean's fall.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not your faults. I'm sorry.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: It's embarrassing for me though, I'm just like being an adult,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: enjoy the food. There are millions and millions of people
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: who like to eat this sort of food. What's wrong
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: with me?
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: Truly, though, be a grown up. Get that fucking clam
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: down your throat like a goddamn grown up.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: It's so embarrassing. It's I feel like, you know, you
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: feel like you really are such a sophisticated eater. And
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: then you get to something like that, you're like, oh,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: you're a child, You're a baby about everything. Grow up.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: But that's okay. You can just now you're a person
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: who knows. I prefer my clams cooked.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I've decided I just don't like a clam, all right,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: even a fried clam. I'm like, this is too chewy? Yah,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: why does anyone care about this food?
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: What about a qua hog?
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: What's that?
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's like in Rhode Island a specialty. It's I
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: think it's a clam. It's definitely in a shell, but
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: they like breaded and oh yeah.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Is it big or small?
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: It's big, but it's not like a chewy. It's cooked
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: and it's like with bread.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: And how do you do? You know how to spell that?
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: It's like quee u a a show ugw.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Hog the or the accent is kind of just built
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: into that.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: It is squahoga hoog wow. Yeah, it's something like that.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: And it is a seafood though. Yeah you like them?
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Interesting?
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: I mean I like them fine, I'm not like, oh,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: can't wait to get a Rhode Island and have a quahog?
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: How have I never heard of a quahog.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: I love saying that. It's fun, right, Yeah, it feels
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: like I've got some sort of I have a difficult
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: time saying something wag cohog. Yeah, now I have to
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: try that. Maybe that's the final clam.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: I'll try last clam, last clam.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Oysters similarly, I mean, the nice thing about an oyster
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: is it's more of a just a swallowing situation where
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: you just kind of throw it back.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and that has like all that you can put
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: all the sauce on it.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just salt a and sauce and slightly slimy.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Where's a clam requires chewing?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to use teeth for that.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Did you have any other difficult things to eat in Japan?
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: No? Really, I mean mostly everything was so great, and
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: you think you're gonna eat sushi the whole time. But
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: it's mostly like ramen and udon.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Yes, very like comfort foods, very salty, so great, almost
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: deeply unhealthy things.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Yes that we find, yes, well we're there. Yeah.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Also like Italian food. They have very good Italian food.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Oh I didn't have Italian food.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, apparently, actually I probably should. This is probably not
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: an actual fact. This is just someone who's jet lag.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: But I think, like the second most popular food in
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Japan is Italian food. Maybe that is true. That is
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: a fact.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Yes, email, send it to the email in sixteen. Send
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: it to him.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: You ask any Japanese person, they say number two favorite
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: food Italian Italian. No, I had some very good pizza there. Actually,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: I think that's the end of that.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: And nothing says Italian like pizza. Where were you were
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: you in Tokyo?
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: We went to Tokyo, Hakone and Kyoto.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: That's what I did.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Oh great, the ultimate tourist. True, it's so lovely.
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: It's so lovely.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: It's interesting to be in a country where, at least
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: on the surface, everyone seems to care.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think everybody's so nice. And we went with
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: our Japanese friend, Junko. Shout out Junko Nakamura. She's amazing.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: But it was she spoke Japanese obviously, which is great,
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: except then she also would get into conversations with people
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: where we selfish jerk Americans would be.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Like could you please involve us or like.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Let's go you know, next thing, and she'd be like
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: paying respect and like it's very respectful and.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Just being a nice person in general.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: It is kind of exhausting. The niceness.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, I mean sometimes you just want someone to be
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: to have no time for you, right, just be like,
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: this is my job, get out of my phone.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: Ye keep going yeah?
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, everyone there, like it seemed to everyone cared about
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: their job and wanting our experience to be good. And
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: this wasn't just like being a tourus. This was like
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: you know, at a coffee shop or whatever, it's like,
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: oh someone is they care?
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no trash on the street. You're like, what
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: is this?
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Getting back to La It's a lot fascinating experience.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: It's like coming back from the woods too, Like if
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: you're in the woods and you land in La and
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: the drive from lax to You're like, why why do
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: I live here? It's so awful?
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: It so sorry. My boyfriend while there is like, what
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: if we get back and we just don't want to
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: be I mean, what if this has ruined our life?
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: And that's a real possibility when you're in Japan to
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: just be like you can experience that the world doesn't
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: have to just be garbage everywhere. Yeah, and people being
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: rude to each other.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: Japan will take you.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I bet yeah, they size wise. I felt very very
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: at home.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, towering.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: Even My boyfriend is six two and hit his at
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: least once a day, constantly running into door frames or
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: of this sort of thing. And I was just buzzing
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: through town.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: For you, hitting the counter at just the right height everywhere.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: You are so good. I don't feel so small. Yeah,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: although it feels sometimes, it feels nice to feel small
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: here where I can kind of just dart about like
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: a hobbit or something that notice me a little else, yeah,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: a little, Yes, there's nothing. There's nothing wrong with that,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: except for when you're trying to reach a shelf here
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: in the United States or some you're shopping and you
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: have to like you need a hook to get something down, yes,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: or a footstool.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: I often will be like, excuse me, tall, tall ser
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: or you there with the long arms, could you reach
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: that yogurt for me?
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Exactly? You don't have to climb the shelves of the
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: grocery store.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: That can climbing a shelf.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, climbing a.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: Shelf, climb a shelf.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: I bought a footstool for my house a few years ago.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: What a feeling. It feels amazing. Yeah, like do not
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: have to get up on the count kitchen counter to
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: reach something? Now I'm like, oh, this is how everyone
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: else feels, where they can just reach reach it.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: But I kind of like to climb up on stuff
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: because I'm like, at my age, I can still jump
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: down from a counter with a can of beans in
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: both hands.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: I just have these horrifying memories of elementary school teachers
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: getting up on counters and me sitting there that below
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: and me like they're going to fall off, And I
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: remember one of them did fall off, and I thought
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: that could be me. So now I've got my footstool
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: and I'm up there. I'm reaching the baking ingredients, I'm
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: reaching my cereal with no with no help.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: And this is your kickstarter. Yeah you're type of foot Yeah,
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: your own footstools.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: There's nothing different about them from regular footstools.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: There, yours, they're my foot stools.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: There'll be years in development, the backers will never.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: Get their product perfect.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Japan was lovely and that's all I can think
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: about all the time. And the trip back, I slept
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: for maybe ten minutes. The man next to me had
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: a face mask earplugs, a cushion. He slept. He didn't
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: even lean his chair back. He slept the entire sitting
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: straight up. I was like, is this guy a spy?
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: How did he learn to do this? Because I'm leaned
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: all the way back, I'm doing everything in my power.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Could not fall asleep.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Horrim Melatonin.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: I can't take melatonin. This is actually a long running
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: topic on this podcast, which full I can't take melatonin.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: I can't take like benadril to fall asleep. They all
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: have the opposite effect on me, and they keep me awake.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: I felt that way about morphine. Have you ever had morphine?
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: I don't think that I've had morphine.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: I had to go into the hospital because I had
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: eaten a bad chicken caesar salad.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Oh, where can you name the player in Mississippi?
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Okay, at a restaurant in Mississippi. And it wasn't that
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: everything goes out kind it was the everything stays in.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: And then I got like, I think sepsis. Oh my god,
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: but it hurts so much like driving to the hospital
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: when we go over a bump. It was like, oh,
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: so when we got to the hospital, I got morphine
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: and it made my body feel morphine right, but my
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: brain was like I got to solve every problem that's
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: ever happened in this world, and I'm going to do
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: it right now. And also everyone's making noise shut.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: It was that almost sounds like sleep paralysis or something. Yeah,
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: like not really in control of your body anymore, but
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: your brain keeps going, Oh how long did that last hour?
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: A few hours?
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: And I was like, Morphine's not for me, but it
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: took care of the chicken Caesar.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: Well, the morphine didn't, but the four days in the hospital,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: four to five days in the hospital.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Did have you had a chicken Caesar since?
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: No, I've had no chicken since.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: How long has it been?
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: Almost twenty years?
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Oh my god? Did it turn you vegetarian?
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Well pascatarian. I still got to be able to
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: chew those clams.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Of course you get those clams. Yeah, well you should
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: write a yell p review of the restaurant twenty years later.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: I should still reeling from my experience.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: Wow, that's awful. Yeah, that's really taking.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: It was likely the caesar salad dressing with ra I
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: feel like that's.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: Or the lettuce. Lettuce is a secret culprit of a
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: lot of food poison.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but more E coli normally right food?
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Do you think you're talking to you? I don't know.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: Oh, I was like, I don't know. Do you know
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: everything about E col i?
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Came with such a with such a strong opinion there,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: like I really knew. Yeah, but I've just heard that
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: lettuce is often the thing that you don't think about,
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, that's what poisoned you because someone
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: didn't wash the lettuce.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but this spinach.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: The spinach, your leafy greeneh, essentially will poison you. I
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: had a club sandwich a couple of years ago, and
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure it was the lettuce that did it.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: What board the mayo? Again, it's there are so many
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: things poison the meat.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: We had a and my I was in a sorority
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: in college and we had a deli tray that just
• 15:13

  Speaker 2: for a while.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: So it's slimy and grow.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the like little pretty marbling, like an oil
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: spill on your turkey.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Oh, now I see this is a deli meat. I
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: think is one thing that could turn me vegetarian. It's
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: just like the deli meat. What are any of us.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: Just an animal being lied to paper thin?

• 16:10
  Speaker 2: I feel like we should. Look, I was happy to
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: have you here today. It was excited to have Mary
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: Elizabeth here. But uh, there's a bit. There's a butt here,
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: there's an absolute butt here. The podcast is called I
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: said no gifts, no gifts, And look, I assume you
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: got one email or someone got a phone call, an
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: email with the title of the podcast. Hopefully this came
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: across your desk at some point. I don't know that
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: you paid any attention to it because you come in today.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I'm so excited to have you here. I thought we'd
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: have a nice conversation that nothing would go wrong and
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: that we'd move on with our lives. But you came
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: in holding what I'm looking at it now, I'm holding
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: it now, clearly a gift, this gift for me.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: Well, I I don't take no for an answer.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Oh interesting, Yeah, very defiant.
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, And if I want you to have a gift,
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: you're gonna have it. Also, I'm not good enough. So
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: if I bring you at present.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: This is something you're working through with yourself.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: We're really getting into it. Maybe you'll like me. It
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: depends on what's inside.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: This is all just trying to earn my respect. Then yes,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: And unfortunately you've failed in a huge way here, damn it.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: So I mean, but maybe you'll come back once after
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: I open it. Maybe there's something in here that will
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: finally win my favorite.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: We'll see.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, should I open it here on the podcast?
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Are you going to smoke that cigarette while you
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: open it?
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Or I probably should? I should light up. There's just
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: this for the listener that's not watching the video. There
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: is just kind of a loose cigarette.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: It looks like a menthol.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: It's a I'm trying to think of that's a real cigarette.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Or a stage cigarette.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, of course we used it for our fifth anniversary episode.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: And I can't remember if I bought actual cigarettes or
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: like smells Herbie. It's probably an HERB cigarette. I've never
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: smoked a real cigarette. Cute, isn't that sweet? So I
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: have to imagine, are you a current smoker?
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: No, I will have an occasional occasional cigarette.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Were you a smoker for a while?
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: I was when I was like in college.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Okay, cool, college kid, so cool? Ultimately a badass?

  Speaker 3: Let's get tattoos. Yes, let's go for Okay, do you
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: have any tato so many? I'm not trying to prove anything.

  Speaker 2: I did?
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: I do have my motorcycle license?
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: Is that true?
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: That's exciting.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: It was exciting.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Do you drive a motorcycle now? No? No? Do you
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: have to reap it every year?
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I got? I passed my driving test, my motorcycle riding course,
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: I passed it. The person was like, let's see you passed,
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: and I was like I did, Like I should not
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: be riding a motorcycle in the streets. And then I
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: was going to go take my DMV test and COVID happened.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: Oh and then I got an e bike and then
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: I broke Well you can't see it because my tattoo
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: is covered by stage makeup from my television show. But
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: I broke my arm. I shattered my radius. Oh so
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: now I'm scared. Oh my god, it didn't feel good.
• 19:55

• 20:14
  Speaker 3: I'm scared. But anyway, let's get touch it.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Let's get okay, let me open up this gift here. Okay,
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I'm reaching in. It's a little blue bag, which I
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: think is so cute. Now it feels like there's two
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: things in here. Is that? Does it matter what order
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: they come out in? Okay? The first thing I'm feeling
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: is some sort of card or thin Okay, two different cards. Okay,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: whoa you?
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: Oh it's true this first Yeah, the first.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: Card says words to guide and inspire your day. You
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: are loved and on the.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: That's from me, though you are loved, just from me.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: It's sat inside of it. No, the same one. Okay, Yes,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: you can pop open the little front of the card.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: See you're very care because it feels like I'm gonna
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: break this.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: I don't think you can.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's almost like an advent calendar.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: Yes, and that's a message from the universe for you.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Should I read it?
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: And they're all different. What does yours say?
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: You are already as courageous as you need to be? Disagree?
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: What if it's time? What if you're ready to.
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: Get a tattoo?
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: That might be true?
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, or maybe you don't have to get a tattoo
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: because you're already as courageous as you need to be.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: This is a very this to me. If this given
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: to the wrong person would have ends up with them
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: assassinating somebody.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Well maybe that's what the universe wants. Maybe that was
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: a bad person that would be such an incredible beginning
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: of like like John Wick movie, Like he's like, do
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: I kill someone? And then he opens this like sweet
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: card and he's like, I guess everyone dies?
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: I mean may this killing spirit Yeah, it's international killing spury.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: That's a good movie. Yeah, it's like, uh, you know
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Taro gone wrong. Yes, spirituality leads to d d well.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: I really like that, and I think we should all
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: take that into account. What if it's time, what if
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: you're ready, yeah to go on your international killing spree. Yeah,
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: I hope this doesn't now. I hope the podcast. Now,
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: that's another movie where a podcast inspires somebody to god.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: And you're about to take it on the road. Do
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: you have so much power? You have to really, you
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: got to check yourself. It's a good thing you have
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: a nice team around you, because you're out of control.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: I'm absolutely out of control. I'm pushing too many boundaries. Agreed,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: it's unbelievable. Okay. So I've got this beautiful little card.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Do you buy these? Like by the package? How do
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: you get this thing? It's almost like a Valentine. I
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: really like it.
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: Say that it's from a large shipping conglomerate that may
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: or may not be ruining our the Earth, our planet.
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: But maybe you can get them from a small local store.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: Okay, it seems like something that you could buy locally. Yeah,
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: buy your Tarot gift card from the universe at your
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: local Crystal store rather than your giant company.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Yes, Amazon, we all know what we're we're saying it.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, We're all guilty.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: We're all guilty, and that's fine.
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: What it is. It just is what it is.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: It is what it is.
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: You know what we're feeling bad about it.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: We're feeling as long as you feel bad about yourself
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: and everything you do all the time, do whatever.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Whatever you want. You're courageous enough that would.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Be a good thing in one of these cards. Yeah, okay,
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: And now I've also got an Aroma Coffee and Tea
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: company gift card.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: I did hear you say how much you like gift cards.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: I love gift cards and they're also paralyzing for me.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, great, I've had that one for two to three years.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: This lines up with the way I treat gift cards.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: I heard on your podcast, and so I've passed it
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: on to you. Which is also sort of like a
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: horror film, like, Yeah, this is what is that.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: Uh, it follows.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: So now I've put the disease in you, and it's
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: yours until you pass it along to someone else.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Gift follows.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's also a great coffee shot.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: I've heard good things about this place. I have a
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: friend who goes here to write.
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so maybe you can pass it on to them,
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: but then.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: She'll use it.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: Oh boring, and.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: Then the company is probably maybe these are like they're
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: counting on this twenty five dollars or whatever to like
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: to keep them afloat. They're like, if someone spends this card,
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: where you go out of business.
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Amazon takes over Amazon finally bias, so see that
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: cancels the other one out.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Oh very interesting. Yeah, this balances the universe.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: So it's almost like I haven't given you anything at all.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: Net neutral Yeah, just absolutely zero here, Yeah, which I like,
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: but you asked for. The thing is is if I
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: spend this, this could spend send the world into a
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: spiral that we may never recover from again.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: You have ultimate power.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: This is what's the movie with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan,
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: the Bookstore movie Emailing.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Oh you got Mail?
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: You got Mail? This is kind of a You've Got
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Mail where the big company's trying to buy Is that
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: what happens? And he's trying to buy out this small
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: I brought you here today on your expert opinion. How
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: about you've got mailed?
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Oh you asked the wrong person.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Neither of us has seen this movie, not in a
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: long time. I've never seen it. But I got the
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: general idea.
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: I think, m h, there's there's email.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: There's email and books and buying.
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: And romance and romance, comedy.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: And comedy and a little bit of heart.
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: So much heart.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I've got this gift card and you've kept
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: it for three years, I think, So what's your When
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: someone gives you a gift card? Is that generally how
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: it goes? We're like, well, I just can't yeah, forget
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: about it, and we'll spend it.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: It's I think that it got given to me by
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: the PTA of my son's school. Okay, volunteering. Oh, that's
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: which is very nice. But then he graduated from that campus.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Okay, right, so I never go there to that oh right.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: And so you'd have to be in the neighborhood, and
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: then it would also have to be in your wallet.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: Yes, it would have to be in my wallet.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: And how many gift cards can have one person have
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: in their wallet. You can't have it for every area.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Of the simple I get, like the Gelson's, our local
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: grocery store, sens is like a five dollars off coupon.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Oh right, five dollars off. At Gelson's, you're still I mean.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: At the strawberries that are only fifteen ninety nine and
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: rotten mostly Girlson's.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Don't get me started.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: I know, I'm also I'm I hope you hear this. Glsons.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: You need to get something happening with your produce. It
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: is not not fresh.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: This is my take on Gelson's. It is Ralph's. But
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: the only thing that's different is the pricing. Yeah. It's
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: not like you know, you'll go to I don't know,
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: Whole Foods or whatever and you're like, oh, I can
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: notice a difference here. Yes, as you go to a Gelson's,
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: you're like, this is literally the same stuff.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: There's no different brands. It's not like going to Trader
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: Joe's where you're like, oh, this Trader Joe's brand thing
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: of things that I can't get anywhere else.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: No, it's just literally the grocery store pricing timestand but
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: it's so close to my home. I think that's where
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: they really get you. They've got the proximity, and they've got,
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: for whatever reason, a wine bar.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: And they have a wine bar for whatever reason. For
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: your grocery store wine bar time leads.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: When you spend nine dollars on a gallon of milk,
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: you need a drink.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: That's true. That's I got to get drunk to shop there.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: Everyone's just stumbling through the store behind their grocery car. Yes,
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: how did we get to Gelson's pricing? Let's see.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: I don't know your jet lag. I don't know what's
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: wrong with me.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: I need a little bit more coffee here.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: I'll take a coffee break too. I'm excited for you
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: to open. What else is in your back?
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to get back into here because there's
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: almost feels like there's a If I had to guess
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: right now, I'd be like, this is an action figure.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: But we'll see what it is. See, Oh my god,
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: it kind of is.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: It kind of is and it matches your shirt.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Look at that a unicorn. Look how beautiful that look.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: It's just like you almost exactly the color of my shirt.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: Where did this come.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: From well, okay, sweet unicorns are just my favorite and
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: I just love them, and so I have them. I
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: have like I have like a box of gift things
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: where like if it's like a birthday or someone's special
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: occasion or something, and then I wrap them a gift.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: I'll wrap like a little unicorn or a little like
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: rainbow catcher, like light catcher on the outside.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Where are you getting your unicorns?
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: A small local store?
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: Your local unicorns?
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's not Amazon.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Do you have like a box of unicorns? I do?
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: I have unicorn bulk.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Wow. That's whimsical. Thank you, very whimsical. Have you been
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: a unicorn person your whole life? Yes? Okay, I like
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: the confidence there.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: Yes, I love a unicorn.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: Where did it begin?
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: Probably Shira?
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: That makes sense.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: She had a pegasus?
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Did she ride it?
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: She wrote a pegasus and that also been a unicorn.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Pegasus is a unicorn with wings as well.

  Speaker 2: with a horn that can fly and do these magical things.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: I feel like you don't see as many unicorns in
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: popular media anymore. Yeah, it feels like even in fantasy movies,
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: they're not putting them in. I think that's the one thing,
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: except for there's that.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: New movie, new unicorn movie.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Wait, isn't there like a movie about unicorns or something?

  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're doing a twenty four movie. What does that call?
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: It's not the last Unicorn? That's another thing.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: Is it like, no, I hit a unicorn with my car.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: I feel like the killing of a sigt unicorn. Then
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: you just couldn't handle our You are so ready top
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: for that. That's why we blocked out the death part.

  Speaker 2: They hit it with a car. I don't know, it's
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: I know what you did last summer basically, So the unicorn,
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: the car, it's a movieing Merlin is trying to track
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: you down or something.
• 30:38

  Speaker 2: Let's see. My little pony is not unicorns. That's just pos.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: They have some unicorns. I guess this is and also
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: Rainbow Bright. I think there was a unicorn and that
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: one in that Yeah.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: That makes sense.
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: It was the very eighties totally.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: But it doesn't feel like there's that unicorn. You know,
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: there's not like one famous is there? Who's our most
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: famous unicorn? Is the big question?
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: Who is our most famous unicorn?
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: Like a Mickey Mouse kind of a unicorn? Right, there's space.
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: We found a gap in the market.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: We need a unicorn with a name. Yeah, is there
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: a single name unicorn? That's the big question. God, God
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: is a unicorn?
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: God is a unicorn? I believe it.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: There's that that book, that children's book, The Last Unicorn.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: But I don't even know if that that became a movie. Correct.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: That movie was intense.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: But look at us, we can't remember that unicorn's name.
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: I'm disappointed in myself.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: I know, I'm you came here, you came in pretty hot.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: Unicorn wise, you can't name a single unicorn?
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: Well, I can name all of them. That's the thing.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: They all get mixed together.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: There are plenty of famous horses.
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, National Velvet thought it's name.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: National.
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: That's a famous horse movie, isn't it? With Liz Liz
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: of White Diamonds fame going. She was famous, She was
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: friends with Michael Jackson. She had a perfume called White Diamonds.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: Liz Taylor. Sure, she's in a movie about a horse
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: named National Velvet.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: I believe.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: So does she ride National Velvet?
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: Horse names are psycho when we get like real horse
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: names like that, it's like who when you name a
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: horse and you do that sort of naming, you are
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: revealing something very weird about yourself. I like it.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: I like, I want to shirre that says horse names
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: are psycho.
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: It's worse than you even thought because the National Velot
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: was the name of the film. But the horse is
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: the Pie, the original horse, Pie Pie.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: The Pie. And now that's kind of a stupid name.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: The Pi E P I E the Pie.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I wish it was the private investigator.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: Private investigator, What are you going to do? I'm going
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: to ride that pie. I'm going to ride that pie.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: The pie. The horse is called the pie, the pie.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: So when you're talking to it, you have to say, hello,
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: the pie.
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: Drop it, the pie?
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: Drop it?
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: Do you say that to a horse?
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: I think your horses constantly have things in their mouth.
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: Ye, leave it.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: It's chewing up a big piece of bone or whatever,
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: just like drop the bone, the pie, the pie, the pie.
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: But national velvet, God knows what that even means. Then
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: what does national velvet refer to? Does Liz Taylor play
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: national velvet?
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Is velvet the fabric of the ribbon
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: that you win?
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: You get the national velvet? Yeah, the pie gets the
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: national velvet.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: Everyone wants these twelve yards of fabric.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: Wow, national velvet.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: I really don't know.
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: Wow. The fact that you were able to pull that
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: film is.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: But not the Taylor who knows a brain is a
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: brand is a weird.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: As far as celebrity names goes mine is the most broken.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: I cannot name a celebrity. The fact that I was
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: able to pull up Elizabeth Taylor was I think I
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: deserve a lot of.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: Credit because I can't name on your emails.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: Everyone, Yes, your ribbons, your National velvet vels. I deserve it.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: I can't name my favorite celebrities. I have a very
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: hard time with that, really, And I brought this up
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: to my boyfriend. I was like, maybe there's something wrong
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: with me mentally, or maybe my brain is breaking. Down,
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: and he just brushed it off. So if something goes wrong,
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: it's his fault, okay, because I've warned him, Yes, and
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: I've also warned you, and I warned all of our listeners.
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: Now it's all of our faults.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: Everyone's responsible but me. Okay, unicorns, unicorns, and we named
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: what we didn't name a single horse after me saying
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: they were famous horses. You said National Velvet, We learned
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: the pie. There's ed your seabiscuit.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: Oh that's a pretty famous horse.
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: M And that's the end of my list, I guess.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: But again, two more than a unicorn, I would say. Yeah.
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: And then there's the movie about the unicorn getting hit
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: by a car.
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a movie called a Unicorn Store.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: What's that?
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: I think that Bree Larsen directed it.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: Oh so it's new, No, it's well is compared to Velvet? Yeah,
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: newer than that Unicorn Store. Yeah, do you know what
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: that's about. I don't know why I'm asking you.
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: You know what, it's about a lot of movie. I
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: have a lot of movies to watch.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: I got to get back to you.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll check in with you periodically. Be able to
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: see National Velvet did you see unicorns?
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: It can be a new section of your podcast where
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: you just call me and ask me if I've seen
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: the movies that you want to know about.
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: It'll be years. You'll never watch any of them, but
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: we'll keep calling, calling and calling.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: I probably won't. I don't think i'll watch those.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: I have a hard time. You know, I'll put movies
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: on a list and I never get to the list. Yeah,
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: this is something I do. I'm going to reveal a
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: secret about myself. When someone recommends something to me. If
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: I say I'll put that on my list.
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: You mean fuck off.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, it's like it's not happening. It's just not Yeah,
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: it will have to be purely by mistake that I
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: watch your recommendation. You know I don't, and I don't
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: know why that is.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: What do you gravitate toward, Like if you were to sit.
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Down, just whatever is immediately in front of me, Oh, okay,
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: or that's valid. I think this might be Tell me
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: if this is true. I think most people have a
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: hard time actually taking a recommendation. I feel like when
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: I recommend something, I don't trust that anyone's ever gonna
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: actually even with I think the closest you'll come is this.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: If it's a song, someone might listen to a three
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: minute thing, do you recommend? But and then I think
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: there are categories. It's like maybe a song mm hm,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: potentially a YouTube video okay, next level TV episode of
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: a TV show, okay, what would be the next movie?
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: And then book book is probably the last thing someone's.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: Gonna Actually, a restaurant are we only talking?
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: Restaurant is number one? Okay? Maybe even before a song.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: Wouldn't you say that.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: You'll try a restaurant?
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: But does it depend on where it is?
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Location is important? Yeah, if it's a restaurant within ten minutes. Yeah,
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: people probably.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: Are like in Japan, like if I was like, oh,
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: you're going to try this?
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, although I had probably nine people send me
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: lists of things to do in Japan, I probably took
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: one recommendation.
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: Right, which is something one on a nine ain't bad.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: But you like, if I were to say, oh, you
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: have to hear the song, would you actually listen to it?
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: Probably?
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Okay? And I think you would have to have it
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: be sent to you.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: I will, I will. I like I like a reason
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: to judge someone.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: So that's a great Yeah, wait to think about this,
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: if I could reframe it in my mind as I
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: get to judge them, I'll.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: Get to judge you and decide if your taste is good,
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: if you're worth being a person or not. But I
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: think like, as you know, if people recommend things and
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: you try them, and then if you're like, Okay, my
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: taste kind of aligns with this person's taste, you.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Know, right, I think that's the way to go, where
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: it's like the song is a nice little teaser, and
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: if that works for you, you can start asking this
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: person for more things.
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: Yes, do you send like like videos to friends on Instagram?
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: I'm so careful. I'm maybe more careful than I need
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: to be, uh, because I maybe it's because I'm so
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: annoyed by people sending me things. I'm like, this has
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: to be perfect for me to send it to somebody.
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: And then maybe it's the pressure I'm putting myself. But
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: it's very rare that I'll send somebody a video maybe
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: like you know, like on Instagram, there will be like
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: a reductrous me or ClickHole thing that you have to
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: read seven words. I might send that okay video. I
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: have to be really sure of myself. What about you
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: do you?
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: I think yeah, Like different groups of people have become
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: like different things, Like I have two friends in a
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: group chat called pop Parade where we just send like pop.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: Puppy that's great to each other or yes, yeah.
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: And that's nice. And if I have another group of
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: friends like my closest friends, and if someone sends me
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: a video that I'm not into, I will be like,
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: I'm not into this video.
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: You're that honest?
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because like, let's curate this. Don't be sending me
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: more of this. I'm not I don't care for it.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: And I hope that the same thing will be said
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: to me, like no, thank you to this one, like okay, okay,
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: your taste is not going in that direction.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: That is so healthy, That is such a healthy the
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: behavior because that is the opposite of me, where I
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: will no matter what anybody sends me, I will not
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: express my unless I really I'll tell someone if I
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: really love it, but I'll never say I don't love something, which.
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: You'll just never speak to them again. I slowly left
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: that friendship trouble into the sea.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: No. I'm on a text thread with two other friends
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: and we send each other music all the time, and
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: two of us I think we're brought up in houses
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: that never wanted to keep things as that everything's fine
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: as possible. And the other person was a house wherever
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: everyone was honest with each other. And he'll constantly be like,
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: I don't like this, I don't like this, and I
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: think my other friend and I will be.
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: Like, oh that hurts it though, Yeah, that means you
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: don't like me.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's reflection of my being my good as a person. Yeah,
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: but he's just being honest, which is totally fine. I'm
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: slowly learning that that's an okay thing to do.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: I think it comes with age, right, I hope so
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: I think so where it's like, oh, they are actually
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: like a ton of different ways to do things, and
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: if someone does it differently than me, maybe that doesn't
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: mean I'm a piece of shit.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: Right. And I didn't create this, Yeah, I sent a link.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just opened this clam. I didn't make this
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: clam exactly.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: But I'm just people are sending me everything all the time,
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: willy nilly because they don't know what I care about.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: I guess, yeah, but then I complain about everything else,
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: so I don't know what's wrong with me ultimately, well
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: more start here to find out right today we get
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: the answers about my personality. Yeah, no, I could do
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: a little more curating as far as just telling people,
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: oh no, stop sending me this. Maybe I don't have
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: to be that harsh.
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: It's a no for me dog. Maybe just make it funny.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but see, I feel like I'll overcorrect and then
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: just be rude.
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: Well, if they're your real friends, they listen to your
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: podcast and now they know so.
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: I have zero friends. I wonder if I often wonder
• 42:02

  Speaker 3: of people, I'm making it everyone's business.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: Is that something you had to get comfortable with, like
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: as a public person, like your family knowing, Like, sure,
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: that's something I had to as well. Yeah, Oh, I
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: guess they just have access to this. Yeah, you just
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: have to be okay with that.
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: And isn't that funny? Why do we feel like so prete,
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: Like we're like, yeah, any like Tom Dick or Harry Right, fine,
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: but like I don't my mom.

  Speaker 2: about now? Like don't smoke?
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: Eah? Not totally yet for him, but like vaping is
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: a big conversation because there's also like billboards everywhere.
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: Right of course? Yeah, and what is that conversation with
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: a teenager at this point? I feel like my parents
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: never really talked to me about that, Like elementary school,
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: they kind of just like hammered at home, like don't smoke. Yeah,
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: my parents didn't smoke, so I don't know. I never
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: felt like a conversation. But do you feel like there's
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of pressure for your kid not to smoke? No? Okay,
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: Feel like kids smoke as much as they do, but
• 44:52

• 44:56
  Speaker 3: for vaping at school.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: So age smoking it's like very.
• 45:02

• 45:18
  Speaker 2: so the kids got in trouble. I wonder how they
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: got caught. I don't know.

  Speaker 2: Deep, desperate, clawing, deep.

  Speaker 3: I like to see live music, okay, okay?
• 48:55
  Speaker 5: Do you?
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: Oh? I love it? I love it and I hate it.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: Concerts are a complicated experience for me, and I complain
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: about them often, even shows I really love. I have
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: a hard time. And I've said this before, and it's
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: often because I'll go to a concert and I'll be
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: like I'll be looking around at everyone in the audience
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: and be like, oh, I'm like these people. Do you
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: know what I mean?
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: Sure?
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: It's just like to me, a concert feels like I'm
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: a mirror that can push you around. You're like you're
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: getting knocked back and forth by people who are like you,
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: and you're realizing, oh I hate me.
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: Sure, I hear you? I do feel like I was
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: watching myself being proud of myself, thinking that I wasn't
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: worried about people what people were thinking about me.
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: During the grace, and you weren't drunk.
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: I was. I don't drink.
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: Oh amazing. Yeah, so well that's a big moment for
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: you just as a person to be like.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: I'm so proud of me for not thinking about myself constantly.
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: Right now, I could just enjoy this experience. It's just
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: about watching your thoughts, right Yeah. I suppose they come
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: in and there fuck bananas.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: They're almost all imagined.
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: And to be like, I'm not going to attach to you.
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: Just keep going, keep moving, keep keep moving. How often
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: are you going to a live show?
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, I guess it depends on, like if it's
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: concert season kind of, but I would say at least
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: once a month.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's great.
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: I saw Shannon and the Clams.
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: Oh fantastic band, Clams.
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: And Clams, the best kind of Clams.
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: She's an amazing singer, what a voice.
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: I love her very much. She's a wonderful person.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: Oh good, that's nice.
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: She's amazing. Okay, And they were playing at Tippatinas when
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: I was in New Orleans.
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: Oh cool. Yeah, so just by chance you got to
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: see them?
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I just happened to be there at the same time.
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: Do you have a like an all time favorite concert?
• 50:46
  Speaker 5: Ah?
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: Yes, I think Neutral mal Hotel. Oh my god, also
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: in New Orleans.
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: Wow? When was that?
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: Maybe like ten years ago?
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: Oh, that's really cool. That's a rare thing.
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: I feel like I could send you music and you
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: could send me music. I feel like seem to be vibing.
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: Yes. Absolutely, Wow, that's a really cool show. Was it long?
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: Did he play for a while?
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they played forever. They sounded perfectly like I also,
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: I love an LCD sound system just because they sound
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: so much like the album that a dance party, dance part.
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: Are you going to see them later this year with Pulp? Yes? Oh,
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: I can't wait. Polp is one of my all time,
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: all time favorite best amazing And so I haven't bought
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: tickets yet. Someone told me to wait at the Hollywood's. Yeah.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: Does it make sense to wait for tickets?
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe you can get like last minute tickets,
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: maybe because like the bots buy them all up and
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: they're then they're at the height of their price and
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: then they.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: Go down somebody just told me they've got Beyonce tickets
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: for twenty dollars, So maybe I did hear.
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: That Beyonce's tickets were not as much interesting.
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: What's happening there.
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: We're all horrified and afraid of all of our money
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: being taken from us by the government.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: There's a Yeah.
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: I did go to book a plane ticket and my
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: card didn't work like twice, and I was like, oh
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: my god, it's happened. They've taken my money and I'm
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: only allowed to buy things if my husband says it's okay.
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: And then I was like, oh, maybe my credit card's expired.
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: That's the other option.
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess there is always that worry. But I
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: guess I'll just be waiting a couple of months. So
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: then if it does, if I can't buy tickets, I'll
• 52:23
  Speaker 2: just call me.
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: I'll call you and Bee like, please, please, can I
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: go with you?
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: Give me your other tick.
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: There's no other way I can get a ticket.
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: You're the only person I know that I've talked to
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: about this. No, I'll just blame my friend and just
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: ruin his life or something. He goes some more concerts
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: than I do. Certainly he knows better than I do.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: Great Neutral Milk Hotail. That was your favorite show?
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, do you have a favorite show?
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: Yes, Eleanor Friedberger I saw. I don't know. Do you
• 52:55
  Speaker 2: know the Banfiery Furnaces, Yes, she's half of that band,
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: but she's got four amazing solo albums and her Fiery
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: Furnaces as a band. Whenever you would see them live,
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: they would play their music completely differently than as recorded,
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: which is an incredible experience. It's so fun to see
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: just like totally new versions of songs you like, and
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: then she does kind of slightly similar thing where you
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: go in. It was like the like her music's not
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: the most the most rocking music you've ever heard on album,
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: but live it was like singing a punk show. It
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: was unbelievable. It was so cool, and I love her
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: so much, but it was an unexpected thing too, so
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: I think that's what made it such a wonderful concert.
• 53:39
  Speaker 5: I think that.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: Oh and then Pulp seeing them last year was Jarvis
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Cocker is sixty two or so and still performs like
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: he's twenty eight or something. It's so fun to see
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: that's such a cool, naturally cool person. Those are my
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: two favorites, i'd say, oh, that's great. I don't know that.
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: I've tried to think if I've ever had a really
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: horrible concert experience.
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know I have, Yeah, but it's just like, yeah,
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: I've been to somewhere like it's too crowded and everyone's
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: a little too drunk, and there are people like screaming loudly,
• 54:14
  Speaker 3: like what's she playing? Play? What I want you to play?
• 54:19
  Speaker 3: Like that kind of situation.
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: There's always one really drunk person that can ruin it
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: for everybody. There's a band that I love, but when
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: a band gets too jammied live, that can be a
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: difficult experience. I saw Built a Spill a long time
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: ago and there was a little too much jamming.
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: Was it at the will Turn?
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: No, this was when I was still living.
• 54:40
  Speaker 3: In Salt Lake, And I don't know when that was because.
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: I don't know twenty years ago, twenty years ago.
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: Maybe I feel that way about I love Built a
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: Spill too, and I feel that way about Built.
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: It sometimes live there's just there's some noodling on the
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: guitar where I just feel like, I know people love jamming.
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I can use some edit, yeah, And I don't
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: really speak guitar. So like, sometimes I'm like, like, my
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: husband's very musical, and so sometimes I'll be like, I
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: bet he's enjoying this in a way that I'm not
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: able to enjoy it because I don't understand the mechanics.
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: Of it, right, That's how I am. I'm just like, well,
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: now this just isn't the.
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: Song that I and then we become the junk girl play.
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: But I do again. I love Built a Spill. I
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: don't want to say anything too terrible.
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: Same, don't come at us Built a Spill, jeez, I
• 55:32
  Speaker 3: will say.
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: A nice experience is to leave a concert early with
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: friends and everyone everyone recognizes we're done here, and you
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: get to leave, yeah, because you all feel so connected
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: to each other. We're like, we don't have to stay
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: as far longer than we need to be here.
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah. I did also get to say this will
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: be my last one, and then there's one last thing
• 55:50
  Speaker 3: in there. Liz Fair oh exile of course. Last year
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: she played the whole.
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: Oh that's amazing and it was so fun. Oh that
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: sounds great. I love this. I don't know if bands
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: love this new trend of having to play their old
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: albums all the way through. But it's like, when else
• 56:11
  Speaker 2: are you going to get an.
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: Opportunity to hear though it was I think thirty years
• 56:15
  Speaker 3: oh at least right, and she was so like like
• 56:19
  Speaker 3: she just kind of kept being like, I can't believe
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: you guys enjoy. So it also was like she was like,
• 56:25
  Speaker 3: this is amazing, and we were like, this is amazing.
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: It was great. Yeah.
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of bands their first few are their
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: best anyway, and so you but it's like I feel
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: guilty that I don't want to listen to your newer.
• 56:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, or it hates you. It's it's about hitting you
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: at a certain time in your life.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, there's no Soldia tied into it and all
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: sorts of things. And then yeah, but I think that's
• 56:48
  Speaker 2: a great trend.
• 56:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, me too. Keep it coming.
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: I'm happy with that.
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: Keep it coming.
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's get into this final thing here. It feels
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: like another.
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: Oh it's also orange.
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: It's a look out beautifully. I mean, if you're watching
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: the video of this on YouTube, you're now saying on
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: almost art directed episode where I've got a unicorn, that's
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: color of my tst.
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: It goes with back here.
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: I'm just going to put these on our shelf. Yes,
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: these just go permanently on here.
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: I was hoping my guys make it back there. I
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: didn't know. I don't know you, so I didn't know
• 57:22
  Speaker 3: if you were more of a dinosaur person or more
• 57:24
  Speaker 3: of a unicorn person.
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: I would say, I'm kind of in the middle, you know,
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: unicorn dinosaur thing. It's a spectrum. Ultimately, it's a spectrum.
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: It's just like anything else in the world. It's a spectrum.
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: And I would say, I'm right here in the middle
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: of this.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: You're the Eiffel Tower.
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: I'm the Eiffel Tower of unicorns and dinosaurs. No, I
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: like Growing up, I probably would have read more about
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: unicorns fantasy level, but I like dinosaurs and science type stuff.
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 57:54
  Speaker 2: I love Jurassic Park, the original at least so good.
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: Still a great movie.
• 57:59
  Speaker 3: Just rewatch it. Highly highly recommend it.
• 58:01
  Speaker 2: It holds up really well. Yeah. I've only seen a
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: couple of the other ones, and I've never been as thrilled.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah they're fine.
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, are.
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: There any other Well, Godzilla is not quite a dinosaur,
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: but I saw that Godzilla minus whatever it was, the
• 58:17
  Speaker 2: Japanese one last year. Unbelievable, very cool, it's like genuinely scary.
• 58:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, really loved that one.
• 58:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it really feels like as close as I felt, like, Oh,
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: this is what it would feel like if Godzilla existed.
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: It would be kind of scary, very scary. This thing
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: is an giant creature destroying Japan. Yeah.
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: I would just went on a swamp tour also, highly
• 58:40
  Speaker 3: first swamp. I was from Mississippi and Louisiana grew up
• 58:44
  Speaker 3: going there. Highly recommend Ragin Cajun Swamp to War.
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: I love the name. I'm behind it already.
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: But yeah, got to meet a thirteen foot long twenty
• 58:56
  Speaker 3: six year.
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: Olds like it kind of if you stuff right there,
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: you just met a thirteen foot long twenty six year old.
• 59:04
  Speaker 3: That's it worth it, alligator. But like even just seeing that,
• 59:11
  Speaker 3: the massive size of that thing, that is terrifying. Like
• 59:14
  Speaker 3: even if just that was running around, Oh my god.
• 59:17
  Speaker 3: Of course it doesn't even have to be.
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: I don't think I could be in a boat near that.
• 59:21
  Speaker 2: I would be so scared.
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: I was afraid right before I went. And they have
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: them crawl up onto the boat.
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: Not that ba no no no no oh.
• 59:30
  Speaker 3: But the smaller ones. There were sisters named Shanaya and twain.
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: It was cute.
• 59:35
  Speaker 3: They did a good job.
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: Did you get to touch them?
• 59:38
  Speaker 3: No? Okay, they're like I mean, they're straight up wild animal, right,
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: but they live in this like I think this company
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: probably owns this amount of swampland. So they're used to
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: the boats okay, okay, And they feed them chicken legs,
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: but not so much that they won't eat their natural Yeah. Yeah,
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: they're natural prey humans and unicorns. That's what happened to
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: the unicorns.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 2: Wow. The thing that scares me most about alligators is
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: the whipping and thrashing. The jaws are not like, but
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: I feel like if you got closer and starts freaking out,
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: that scares me. Getting whipped by that table.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 3: You and take you underwater and row and roll you
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 3: around until you're drowned and like soft and then shove
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: you and I'll shove you in a log and come
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: back and eat you later.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: Is that true? It puts you away, It puts you.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: Away for later to soften you up. That's what you
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: should have done to the clam.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: That's what the sushi chef should have done to the colts.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: I'm not responsible for this, holding this for me actually
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: put this in a log for a few days.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: Are just in your palm, in your warm palm.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: Wow, I didn't know that's a new fact about alligators.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: I didn't know.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure it's true.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: Well, they have kind of a food storage system that
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: they've got going humans all over for later. Yeah, but
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: that is kind of like that's not The teeth aren't
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: as much danger, right, it's the like strangling you to
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 2: death or.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know, I think the jaw.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: Big clampers, clampers. Speaking of animals that are used to humans,
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: we went to a monkey parkist.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 3: Kyoto where you go inside the house.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: And yeah, it's incredible, incredible.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 3: Did you love it?
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: I adored it. And it didn't feel like it wasn't
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: like a I may be wrong and I'll just continue
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: to be ignorant about this because it didn't feel like
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: a tiger king situation where every animal was in danger.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: I felt like they were taking advantage of us rather
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: than us taking advantage of them.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you go in the little house and buy food
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: for them.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: Yes, I was feeding them apples or I could have
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: bought peanuts or whatever, and they come and just take
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 2: it from you. And it's wonderful and you see them
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: running around. I saw a mother holding a little baby,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: and it's unbelievable experience.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: Did you see well, let's see, I think we went
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 3: around the same time. So you missed the cherry blossoms.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: Missed the cherry blossoms. I'm sure that was incredible.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: Did you go to a don Quixote?
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: Is that the grocery store?
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 3: It's like like a Target kind of a place.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: But I kept reading about it. Never saw you.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 3: Gotta go back for that.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: I honestly would love that.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's pretty amazing.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: What did you buy anything at the Target of Japan?
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 3: I didn't. But there was like a little boy whose
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: buttthole was like sticking out.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: Like a little Oh, I see this is at Target
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: all the time.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 3: Just the air vapor coming out. It was like a
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: room humid a fire, but it's just like a little
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: it's blasting out of a little boys but hole.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 2: This was like some sort of entrapment. This was like
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: to catch a predatory. Do you buy that thing?
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 3: Japanese authorities just yeah, they come right out and they're like, no,
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 3: my skin is just dry, and yeah.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: We got her fellows. Yeah. Wow, I'm sorry to have
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: missed that store though I feel like a big like
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: buy all sorts of crazy things. I didn't really get
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: to experience that. Yeah, we went to a place called Hands,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 2: which was kind of a big department store, but didn't
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: feel like that kind of thing. Don quixote. Why did
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 2: they call it that?
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: No idea?
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 2: Do they sell any windmills?
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 3: That's the big question that I saw mister Pinko pachinko
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: on the ground floor.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: Did you play Pachinko?
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: I didn't.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 2: Did you know what is pachinko? I think about the
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: wheel or the prices, right game pallinko?
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 3: Okay?
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: Is that maybe plinko plinko, Clinko plinko different things.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: I think that's different.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: Pachinko has nothing to do with a ball rolling down
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: a thing, I don't think. So. I want to just
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 2: get my eyes on it.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: Get your eyes on.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: It, because I saw plenty of these casinos. Oh yeah, there's,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: of course the wonderful book called Pachinko, which.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 3: Is an incredible book now a TV show.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: Now a TV show.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 3: But the game itself, maybe it is a ball that
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 3: goes down.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: It is it's almost like a pinball machine or something
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: that's gambling. Yeah, so I wasn't that far off. It's
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: kind of a beautiful game. Look at that.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: Oh that's lovely. Oh I actually used to have one
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: of those that I got at the Rose Bowl. Oh
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 3: you're kidding, a vintage.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 2: You could have opened a casino. I should have this opportunity. Damn.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 3: I love a casino too.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 2: Do you really know? I hate because guys going to
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: leave the podcast.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 3: They're the worst.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: I despise a casino.
• 1:04:11

  Speaker 3: They probably? Yeah, they definitely have fried clams for sure.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: Well count me out. All right, I think we should

  Speaker 5: Yes?
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: No, We're gonna play a game called Gift or a Curse.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: But first I need a number between one and ten
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: from you. Eight. Okay. I have to do some light
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: calculating to get our game pieces. So right now you
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: can recommend, promote, do whatever you want.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 3: Oh okay. I am currently shooting season two of my
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 3: Netflix series with Ted Danson created by Michael Schuer called
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: A Man on the Inside. Please tune into that if
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 3: you have not tuned into it. It's very different from
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: the other show that a lot of people know me
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 3: for called It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which is also
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: about to premiere season seventeen. I've been doing that show
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 3: for twenty years. And what else am I doing right now?
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 3: Just trying to stop and smell the flowers. Here's a
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: shout out for stopping and smelling the flowers.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: You know, beautiful. Everybody go watch those shows. Both great
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: shows and don't forget to smell the flowers, and smell
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: the flowers for God's sake.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 3: Come on, what are you doing?
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: What else are you doing?
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 3: You too good for flowers?
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm smelling them constantly. Do I have anything
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: to recommend outside of anything? I probably do, but I
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: can't think of it right now.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 3: It's hard. Quartet, go see.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 2: That's a great idea.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 3: Oh Alabama Shakes? Are you going to see Alabama Shanks?
• 1:06:39

• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: Hollywood Bull's got it all, got it all? Nothing comes
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: to mind for me. No one can blame me. I'm tired.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 2: But this is how we're going to play Gift a curse.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: I'm going to name three things. You're going to tell
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: me if there are a gift or a curse and why?
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: Then I'll tell you if you're right or wrong, because
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: there are correct answers. You can fail. Hopefully you won't,
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: but you might well, so be careful.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 3: If you fail me, you might be failing. So just saying, okay,
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 3: don't take criticism.
• 1:07:14

  Speaker 2: through it. So let's just get into it. This first
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: one is from a listener named Lindsey. Gift or a curse.

• 1:07:43
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean, right, seize my bathtub. No,
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 3: it's in my bathroom. You shouldn't have even come up

• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: Wrong. That's a gift. That's like, I love this person.

• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: going to do with your home, and they're making themselves
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 2: just comfortable. Comfortable.

• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: they're living their dream, okay, and I'm happy for them.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 3: You're a better person than I am. Maybe they say
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 3: maybe I'll have a bath, and I say, I don't
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: think so, motherfucker.
• 1:08:49

• 1:09:49
  Speaker 3: because my cat's mouth touched it, to which I say,
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Should I shoot my cat now? Is that
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 3: what you would like me to do? That's where I go.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 2: Why was the bunny outdoors? Right, that's the bigger question.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 3: It was a It was a wild rabbit.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 2: I didn't know La had wild rabbit.
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: I it does. I had a full on conversation with
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 3: a coyote this morning, just walking down the street.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: It was pushing its kid in a stroller.
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 3: It was looking for that bunny. Probably, Oh my god.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like I've been robbed of an LA
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: experience not seeing a rabbit.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 3: I also was like, I have never seen I don't
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 3: think I've seen a wild rabbit.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 2: What did it look like? Did it look like a
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 2: desert hair? Yeah? Wow, I know.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: I'll show you a photo.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: I've got to see this. That's fascinating.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 2: I need to get my eyes on an outdoor rabbit
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: now in La.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 3: Hang out in my bathtub. Maybe my cat will bring
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 3: one to you.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 2: So I say, gift, correct, absolutely a gift. I mean
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 2: I think there are outdoor cats. There's a lot of
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 2: It's a complicated issue for a lot of people, but
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: ultimately what it comes down to is I love cats. Yeah,
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: I love cats taking care of local pests. You know,
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 2: this is this podcast is not really on the side
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: of rats or mice, and so the idea of cats
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 2: being around to protect me at all.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 3: For it, some Godzilla rat comes crashing into your house.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 2: I was at a restaurant recently where there are rats
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: running in the trees. That wasn't a good experience. So
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 2: that restaurant, if they had outdoor cats, they wouldn't be
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: a problem. I never have a problem when I see
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: a cat outside. Yeah, you know, I think, oh, that's wonderful.
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, hopefully it's being well fed and yeah, care
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 2: of baba.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: Your cats do all that. But like, look, especially in
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 3: a place like LA, there's going to be outside cats.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, and hopefully they're being taken care of. But I
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 2: don't have at least a spiritual problem with them. I
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 2: love to see them, agreed, there are protectors.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: Like what is the name of the movie with the
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 3: cat and there's no words in it? And I think
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 3: at one and us.
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 2: Go, oh, what was that called?
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 3: It's like, yes, reflection, what feel free to step in?
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: Ripple water water cat? What is that? I saw half
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 2: of it was really beautiful.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: I watched the whole thing.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 2: Flow flow, flow, flow flow. It's so pretty. Yeah, and
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 2: it has no words in it whatsoever. Really, but that
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 2: cat's an outdoor cat.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So if you have a problem with that cat,
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 3: you've got problem with Oscar winning films.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 2: You have no taste? Yeah, all right, so you've gotten
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 2: one right so far. And this final one is from
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 2: a listener named Hannah Gift or a curse eating bacon
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 2: with a fork so your fingers don't get greasy.
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 3: All right. Well, we've established that I have not eaten
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 3: meat in a really long time for you, so I
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: would say eating bacon is a no because I like
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: cats and I like pigs. Live pigs, as I think,
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 3: get your fingers dirty. What are you scared of the
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 3: hepe outbreak that's happening in Los Angeles right now?
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: Is that true?
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 2: I know?
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: Are we all getting vaccinated? At the end of this podcast?
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 2: Is someone out hepatitis vaccines?
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 3: There's so many hepatitises you don't know.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 2: There are at least three. I can at least three
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 2: A B and C, A B and C, and I
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 2: wouldn't be surprised if they've got a D on the way.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 3: I'm sure it's coming. So I say, I say no
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: to the fork, just you know, jump in, go for it,
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 3: go for it.
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 2: Correct, that's a curse. I think that bacon, whether it's
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: any you know, regular turkey, veggie, I guess there's beef,
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 2: bacon whatever. I think part of the experience is a
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 2: lot of There are certain foods you have to eat
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 2: it with your hand or it doesn't taste right. Yeah,
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 2: it's like eating a muffin with a fork. I just
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 2: feel like you need to. Or a donut you like,
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 2: if you don't, if your hand doesn't bring it to
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 2: your mouth for whatever reason.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the point bene powdered sugar to blast off?
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, and you don't you if you cut it with
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 2: your knife and fork. The texture goes wrong with a donut,
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 2: like flattens out of it, right, So get a life,
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 2: you know, just pick it up.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 3: Get over yourself.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 2: Your fingers are why do you care if they're greasy
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 2: during breakfast?
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 3: What else are they for?
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: What's your napkin for? What are your pants for?
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 3: What's your mouth for?
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: What is everything around you for? Just wipe it?
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 3: Else, wipe it? Are your friend?
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 2: What are you? What's your hair for?
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 3: What's your hair? Run your hands, your fingers looks great?
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 3: Oh thank you. It's making grease.
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 2: Got two out of three. Not bad, Okay, I'll take
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: it very nice and on at least. Do you have
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: your gift or a curse? Yeah?
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 4: But I got to roll back a few minutes to
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 4: something that's been bothering.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, I love it long simmer and cat.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 4: No, it's no.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 5: A little farther back than that, I'm sorry to say
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 5: a few weeks ago where you're you know, you were
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 5: spanking and eating an uncooked block of Velveta cheese on
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 5: this podcast, and yet eating a caramel on MIC is
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 5: now too much?
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 2: Really, That's where this is what I'll say. Caramel cheese,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: I knew I was going to only have a small
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 2: bit and swallow it, swallow it as quickly as possible,
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 2: because I thought this isn't going to taste good, Whereas
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 2: with this caramel, I knew it would taste good. And
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 2: caramel is a chewy thing that can the mouth noise
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: can get disgusting and I'm always trying to just think
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 2: on every level as far as mouth noise goes for
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: this podcast and so on. Alice, you're wrong, and the
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 2: fact that you brought this up this late is humiliating
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: for you.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 3: He also hadn't punished this food in any way before
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 3: putting in this mouth spanking, which is a critical step.
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, fair enough, fair enough, I'll accept that fired.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: Okay, Well, now that you've fallen on your face, would
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: you like to bring up your gifter because jan Lis
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: is going to do one, and we're both going to
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 2: speak to it, and then they're going to tell us
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 2: who's correct.
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 4: Great, all right, gift or a curse? Refrigerated water.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 2: If you want to go.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 3: I have a strong Oh okay, I'm very curious. Curse?
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 3: Who wants a mouthful of cold, cold coldness, Not in
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 3: a clam, not in a water, not in ice, don't
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: you ice? It doesn't absorb. It needs to be room
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 3: temperature to absorb properly and more quickly into your body.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: That's how I feel.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: I think it's a gift, an absolute gift, for a
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 2: lot of reasons. First of all, I feel like this
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 2: started very young for me in piano lessons when I
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 2: knew when I my teacher, Missus Siegler, had a thing
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: of refrigerated water in her fridge, and I knew that
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: if I didn't want to play the piano, I could
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: simply ask for a drink of water and it would
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: take a long time to get and it would take
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 2: up at least five minutes of my piano lesson. So
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 2: that's where my love of this began, and it's just
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 2: been a lifelong love affair for me with refrigerated water.
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 2: I think it tastes great. It's so refreshing, and I
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: don't need to use the ice cubes. I have no
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 2: problem with it whatsoever. I don't care if it absorbs
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: or not. They can just run out of my mouth
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 2: for all I care. Wow, it's hitting the cold.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: Cold like a cold water fall straight from from the lips.
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what else I love is brushing
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: my teeth and then having a glass of cold water.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 2: It feels so cold, so cold.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 3: I don't care for the cold.
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: You're not a cold your mind temperature.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: My son loves the like held shoe ice.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, which is a sign sometimes of like an
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: iron deficiency. I think interesting look into it.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 3: I mean he loves like a popsicle, though he frosion
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 3: bananas that are covered in chocolate into it.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah that I can't.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: You can't.
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 2: I can chew an ice, a small ice, pebble ice.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 2: That's the only one I can really, So I guess
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 2: I'm a fraud, but I love a refrigerated water. It's
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 2: a gift.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 4: So I was worried about our relationship for a second there, Bridge.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm always a little worried about as am I.
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 4: But I think we turned it around because I agree
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 4: with you. It's a gift.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 4: It's a gift.
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 5: There's nothing more crisp and refreshing. And also, as I
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 5: have to say, as a single person, I can't go
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 5: through that Brita on my counter that fast if it's
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 5: room tamp oh, I don't drink that much water. So
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 5: then I'm going to be drinking like, you know, bacteria
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 5: filled water. If it just sits there on the counter
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 5: for too long. It needs to be fresh out of
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 5: the fridge. It lasts longer.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, go on a walk, come.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 4: Home, nice big glass of cold water. Ah, nothing better
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 4: we go.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, room temperature water might as well be pond water.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 3: I love a pond water. Delicious pond water.
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 2: Well, you got a lot of things wrong.
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 3: I sure did. This is why you guys do this podcast.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 3: And I'm just a guest and if you need me,
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 3: I'll be in your bathtub.
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 2: Okay, we need to answer a couple one or two
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 2: listener questions from the Patreon which you helped me answer. Yes, okay.
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 2: This first one is more of a listener named Sarah
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 2: sent me a screenshot of breaking news and I guess
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: we just need to speak to this and it says
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 2: it's from the Wall Street Journal. It says Cole's fired
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: at CEO for funneling business to a romantic partner. What
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: do we think of this?
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 3: Oh wow, there is a lot to unpack there. It
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 3: feels like, really, we're gonna take someone to tell we're
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 3: going to take the Cole CEO to task. Look at
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 3: our president. Look what our president's doing.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's doing all sorts of shit and he gets
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 2: to do it.
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 3: How come Cole's is getting in trouble.
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 2: This guy was running Coles. Let him do whatever he wants.
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 3: Just let him give is his romantic partner whatever he wants.
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 2: He was he was trying to make Coles a little sexier. Yeah,
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 2: and it's already a very sexy department.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 3: Store, so sexy, not as sexy as a don Quixote.
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: But you know, for America, when people think romance, they
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: think Coles. And how is this guy able to resist
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: bringing his romantic partner in and giving them some money
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 2: and taking them on all sorts of trips?
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 3: Is that what they were funneling? I don't know.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, they could be anything, could be anything, chocolates, caramels, Cruis.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 3: Shoes, shoes isles.
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 2: For yeah, probably discount. He was giving them discount shoes
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 2: and purses.
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 3: Oh that's kind.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 2: I think there's all he should not. Well, actually, first
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: of all, we're assuming he which from I mean, I'm
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 2: assuming which was sexist.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's the person in charge. Obviously it's a man.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah, of course. So if this was a guy,
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: he was the boss.
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 3: Bosses are men, yes, agreed, blessing.
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 2: But whoever it was, I'm happy for them and they
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: found love and found a way to embezzle money and
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 2: a new way.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just discount purses full of cash.
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 2: I'm from the till Yeah, just the CEO at the
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: cash register. I'm happy for him. He should more her.
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 3: Or whoever are all, whoever's involved.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 2: Whoever's involved should not be in trouble. Yeah, this is
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 2: what I'm having to say. Whoever fired them should be fired. Yes,
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 2: and the romantic partner and the CEO should be reinstated
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 2: as soon as possible.
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, and sent on a romantic vacation to Japan.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 2: So we've spoken to that. Fantastic. And here's one short question.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: It says, if you were dating a man with an
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 2: ex wife and the co parent a six year old son,
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 2: would you be okay with the ex wife calling him
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: to help with stuff like handyman things around the house
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 2: and to help her when she is locked out of
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 2: the house. Much leven love. And that's from Megan. What
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: do we think about this?
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 3: Oh, Meghan? Meghan? Meghan?
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Do we think that Megan is the person question here?
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: Megan, this is what you know. We've been talking a
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 3: lot about cold wet clams. Megan. You're coming in with
• 1:22:10
  Speaker 3: some some actual UH therapy work here.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 2: And I think one thing that would be nice to
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 2: know is the man the CEO of Coles.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I think that that that's always the most important.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 3: First question, if he's the CEO of Coles. We've kind
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 3: of he's exonerated.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 2: He could do whatever he wish, and it's oaken his
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 2: ex wife because uh, you know, they have romance, they
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: have coals, they have so many things tying.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 3: To do, things that we like. Right, Let's see. I
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 3: mean I think, yes, if the conversation has been had
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 3: about it and you feel okay about it, and if
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 3: you don't feel okay about it, bring up how you feel.
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 3: We've established that you have to you have to cultivate
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 3: your own experience here, right, you like the song? Do
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 3: you not like this song?
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 2: Right? And you know there's a chance that their boundaries
• 1:23:03
