[SPEAKER_00]: This is Cynthia Gannelp, and you are listening to the mesmerized podcast.
0:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey friends, welcome back, or maybe I should say welcome back to myself.
0:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe I need to reintroduce myself.
0:21
[SPEAKER_00]: It's been a little while, right?
0:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Took the month of August off, and the beginning of September, actually.
0:26
[SPEAKER_00]: And it has been a lot of rest and a lot of activity and everything in between.
0:31
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just want to say thank you.
0:33
[SPEAKER_00]: for the text, the emails, those of you that reached out, DMs, and said, we miss you.
0:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I miss the show, come back, where you been, and I just want to say thank you.
0:41
[SPEAKER_00]: And for all of those that did not reach out, you're still my brother and sister in Christ, and we're still friends.
0:46
[SPEAKER_00]: It's fine, everybody.
0:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
0:48
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm glad to be back.
0:50
[SPEAKER_00]: And while I was out the last month, here's kind of a quick overview of what's been happening.
0:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Mike and I moved our oldest to law school and that was her first year.
0:59
[SPEAKER_00]: So that was quite the move.
1:01
[SPEAKER_00]: We moved our second one into a house for his sophomore year at A&M and we got our third child, our youngest into fourth grade.
1:09
[SPEAKER_00]: And yes, for those of you wondering, I did remember to order school supplies.
1:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Go me, that's a win.
1:16
[SPEAKER_00]: In the midst of all that, my mom was diagnosed with cancer,
1:25
[SPEAKER_00]: The great news is it was cured by surgery as they say and she doesn't need follow-up treatment And so we are so very grateful for that in the Lord's goodness in that.
1:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I Also during this time I read the Clamany Club alongside the rest of the world.
1:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I read Mad Mabel also enjoyed that I Rested some I got in our swimming pool for those of you who know me that's epic I don't even enjoy the swimming pool, but I did I floated in that swimming pool
1:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I was given the honor of joining a cohort at our church didn't even know that word really before I joined it and that is a nine month program where we study theology and I've started that with lots of reading not sure I'm smart enough for that and so that's all that's been going on.
2:10
[SPEAKER_00]: little crazy.
2:11
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of rest, a lot of crazy, a lot of good.
2:14
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was reminded that the Lord always knows.
2:16
[SPEAKER_00]: He knows what we need in the seasons that we need it.
2:18
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was so hesitant, tenuous to not have the podcast going in August because of everything they tell you.
2:26
[SPEAKER_00]: They being the authorities on podcasts.
2:28
[SPEAKER_00]: They don't stop.
2:29
[SPEAKER_00]: If you have momentum, don't stop.
2:30
[SPEAKER_00]: If you stop releasing people, stop listening.
2:33
[SPEAKER_00]: They'll forget about you.
2:34
[SPEAKER_00]: This isn't good, all the things, and you know what?
2:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I needed this time, and I'm just so grateful, and we will trust the Lord with the outcome.
2:40
[SPEAKER_00]: So thank you for all of you, for coming back, and it would be really, really meaningful to me if you would continue to listen and also share this with some friends.
2:50
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's what's been going on in my world.
2:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, some of you are saying, hey, I gave you an email because you were going to send out a survey, and I want you to know that was not bait and switch.
2:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I am going to send out the survey.
3:01
[SPEAKER_00]: because of everything that just happened in life.
3:04
[SPEAKER_00]: It has not gone out.
3:05
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going to give everyone a week from now, a little under a week and we are going to send out the survey.
3:10

4:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Everyone needs to know Candace and I, I mean, we're like, we're kind of best friends if you're best friend is someone you've never met in person and kind of follow each other casually on social media and you talk once a year.
5:03
[SPEAKER_00]: That's that's what this is, right?
5:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Best friends in heaven one day friends, but listen, you and I like I hate to start off with such a hard-hitting journalistic approach, but I've got a bone to pick with you and it's your hair.
5:22
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so great.
5:24
[SPEAKER_00]: This short, and we're the Bob.
5:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I wore a bob canvas for like 20 years, apparently when it wasn't in style,
5:39
[SPEAKER_02]: this, it's so hard to style a bob.
5:43
[SPEAKER_02]: Everyone thinks it's easier because you have less hair.
5:45
[SPEAKER_02]: It's really not.
5:46
[SPEAKER_02]: You have to style it every day or you look like you just got out of bed.
5:52
[SPEAKER_02]: And someone, what I do, all my interviews,
5:56
[SPEAKER_02]: David is his name and he stiles my hair and it always looks fabulous and people say can you give me a tutorial and I'm like no Because David does my hair.
6:04
[SPEAKER_02]: It doesn't look as good when I do it.
6:06
[SPEAKER_02]: However, I did do it today and it is air dried which I have
6:11
[SPEAKER_02]: Like that's my texture.
6:13
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a little wavy texture and then just in the front I like go over it with a little brown brush and a hair dryer Oh my gosh, I'm sorry.
6:21
[SPEAKER_02]: This turned into a hair tutorial podcast interview but but I feel like when I drive naturally like that's how I can do it.
6:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, otherwise I need someone to do it for me
6:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well, they don't even worry.
6:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be interviewing David tomorrow.
6:35
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's fine, asking him for all the tips and tricks.
6:38
[SPEAKER_00]: No, but, and I'm not offended that you didn't bring in David for my interview.
6:42
[SPEAKER_00]: It's fine, Candace.
6:43
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's, it's real good.
6:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Like you, I think you've got it down.
6:47
[SPEAKER_00]: But I got to know this and you can say, I'm not answering that, we're good.
6:50
[SPEAKER_00]: But like, if you were to go to some big event tonight, would you put extensions in?
6:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Or is this just it right now?
6:56
[SPEAKER_00]: We're doing short for like this era.
6:58
[SPEAKER_02]: This is it right now.
7:00
[SPEAKER_02]: I have no extensions in nothing.
7:02
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's all been about health like hair health for me right now.
7:07
[SPEAKER_02]: And I have worn extensions for so many years.
7:11
[SPEAKER_02]: And I got tired of it.
7:12
[SPEAKER_02]: My husband got tired of it.
7:13
[SPEAKER_02]: He always puts his hair in my head and he's like, oh, yeah, that's enough in your hair.
7:20
[SPEAKER_02]: Just never felt natural.
7:21
[SPEAKER_02]: So I love being extension free right now.
7:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I think your hair looks so cute and I whenever I see on social, I'm like, if I talk to her again, see I need to tell her hair is fantastic.
7:31
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's really good.
7:32
[SPEAKER_00]: That's why she's here.
7:33
[SPEAKER_00]: We're just going to talk about hair for 30 minutes because, you know, it's the eternal stuff we care about here.
7:38
[SPEAKER_00]: So.
7:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, but I do feel like I have you on every fall because I get all in the mode for like Christmas, and you know, I've told you for years as has the world that you're the queen of Christmas, and so then I'm like, okay, we're starting to think holidays.
7:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you are.
7:54
[SPEAKER_00]: You're so cute.
7:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's the question.
7:57
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a great American family, right?
7:58
[SPEAKER_00]: That's where all your stuff is still.
8:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
8:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
8:01
[SPEAKER_00]: How many are you?
8:02
[SPEAKER_00]: How many are slated for this holiday season?
8:05
[SPEAKER_00]: How many
8:10
[SPEAKER_02]: I have two coming out this Christmas.
8:12
[SPEAKER_02]: I have another double header and I believe I'm now at my 20th Christmas movie, which is a lot.
8:20
[SPEAKER_00]: My gosh, that is a lot.
8:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Is there like one Christmas storyline that you're like, I'm never saying yes to that?
8:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Like don't bring that in front of me, don't put the paper in front of me.
8:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not doing that one.
8:31
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's all of the, if you can recite what like a hallmark movie is, and you say, oh, it's the big city girl going to the small town and finding the old boyfriend.
8:43
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the movie I will never do.
8:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you're done with them.
8:46
[SPEAKER_01]: No more of them.
8:46
[SPEAKER_01]: As I have done those.
8:48
[SPEAKER_02]: And so I really do try to find stories that feel good, still fit in the box of what we love about Christmas movies but make them different.
8:57
[SPEAKER_02]: And I will say that one of my Christmas movies.
8:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I feel like they're both a little different.
9:03
[SPEAKER_02]: One of them is the third movie in the home sweet Christmas franchise with Cameron Matheson.
9:10
[SPEAKER_02]: So we did, we did one, what were we met.
9:15
[SPEAKER_02]: Or we got back together because we were like childhood friends and then the second one We got married and now this third one.
9:20
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going on our anniversary Vacation because it's Christmas anniversary vacation and we go to Budapest So we actually shot that in Budapest and was fantastic and that's very wrong calming and cute And then my other Christmas movie this year
9:37
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm really proud of.
9:39
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like it's going to be one that you're either going to relate to and really like or you're going to be like, and not for me.
9:45
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's called one more Christmas and it's about a couple that was married for 20 years got divorced.
9:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Come together.
9:55
[SPEAKER_02]: for the sake of the kids at Christmas time, they have college-age kids.
10:00
[SPEAKER_02]: And they have both grown into different people over the last five years that they've been apart.
10:06
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's a really beautiful story because faith is involved and they're both changed from a faith perspective.
10:13
[SPEAKER_02]: And they see each other in a new light.
10:15
[SPEAKER_02]: So that one is called, it's actually called, we changed the name, it's called,
10:18
[SPEAKER_02]: a second chance Christmas, and I love that one.
10:22
[SPEAKER_02]: I just feel like, you know, if you're maybe, but of, you know, in your 40s or older or been married a long time, like you're gonna appreciate moments about this movie.
10:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I love that.
10:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
10:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'm excited about all of them.
10:36
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't like, this isn't the time to make it awkward or anything, but I've told you, Candace, for the last five, so years of no, each other, there would be no better extra than me.
10:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I would be phenomenal.
10:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't steal the show.
10:46
[SPEAKER_00]: My hair isn't short.
10:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I tell you every time in your precious and you're like, I bet you would, Cynthia, but didn't we move on.
10:53
[SPEAKER_00]: But I just throw it out once again that I would be, I
10:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd be pretty good out there, Candace.
10:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I know you would be.
10:59
[SPEAKER_01]: When I start shooting these in the US of A, because I shoot him in Canada, I'm like, you are my first call.
11:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I am.
11:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I am.
11:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I heard you say recently that you just want to make more meaningful faith content.
11:12
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think we've seen that from you.
11:14
[SPEAKER_00]: But is that where do you feel that that's your sweet spot with great American?
11:18
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's kind of what dictates what you say yes and no, too.
11:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it really has been.
11:23
[SPEAKER_02]: They are such a faith forward network and really all of the movies on their embrace, faith to a different degree.
11:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Some of them are just very lightly sprinkled.
11:34
[SPEAKER_02]: And some of them are more faith forward.
11:36
[SPEAKER_02]: And so yeah, it's having the freedom to make these movies that are still warm and comfortable in this genre that I've been in for so long.
11:45
[SPEAKER_02]: And
11:46
[SPEAKER_02]: have them feel more meaningful because we get to talk about things that deeply affect us are heart and our eternity and talk about God and talk about Jesus and there's like we don't we're not tiptoeing around it.
12:01
[SPEAKER_02]: This is like here it is and so that to me is much more meaningful and
12:08
[SPEAKER_02]: That's been wonderful with great American family within that Christmas genre and then, you know, there's still lots of other things that I'm doing and even the mystery movies that I make we just film the fourth one in the Ainsley McGregor series and Those don't aren't really about faith at all.
12:26
[SPEAKER_02]: That's just, you know, someone dies and we're solving a mystery.
12:31
[SPEAKER_02]: And I love those, but again, they're a super family friendly and, um, and I love that.
12:38
[SPEAKER_02]: So there's a balance for me, but I just love family entertainment.
12:41
[SPEAKER_02]: I want kids and moms and dads and grandmas and grandpas to just be able to watch TV together and feel everyone feel comfortable.
12:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well, I appreciate that because I feel it deeply when my college kids are home and I'll have a fourth grader, but everybody's like, you know, we flip on something on Netflix or somewhere in every time, you know, I'm like, oh gosh, okay, all right, fast forward.
13:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, oh, and every time I fast forward Candace, then it gets stuck on the one screen that I was trying to fast forward through if you know, I'm talking out and I'm like, oh, great.
13:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, we all saw it anyway.
13:11
[SPEAKER_00]: So here we are.
13:11
[SPEAKER_02]: I have, I have been there done that so many times in
13:19
[SPEAKER_00]: great mom things.
13:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay last time you were on the show and I'm sure this is on the forefront of your mind because you only do a billion interviews a year but I need to remind you of my my big old snafu that we laugh about and other guests come on my show and make fun of it now still.
13:36
[SPEAKER_00]: When I used chat GPT to ask you to tell me then do you remember this?
13:41
[SPEAKER_01]: I do and didn't you ask me full house or fuller house questions?
13:44
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, have you seen a show?
13:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Did chat, right?
13:47
[SPEAKER_01]: That's for you.
13:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Did I call you out on me?
13:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I was like, is that it wrong?
13:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, and we were laughing.
13:53
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it wasn't full house or fuller house.
13:56
[SPEAKER_00]: It was Christmas, maybe.
13:57
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not like okay.
13:58
[SPEAKER_00]: The one where you were a nurse and blah, blah, and you're like, I wasn't ever a nurse.
14:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I was a doctor and one and it was called.
14:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, huh.
14:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, let's try.
14:07
[SPEAKER_02]: What did I say?
14:07
[SPEAKER_02]: I was an nurse.
14:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I was a nurse in one.
14:09
[SPEAKER_01]: In journey back to Christmas.
14:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe I'm wrong.
14:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm making this.
14:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Whatever.
14:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Redeemed.
14:15
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was the wrong one the whole time.
14:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's be sure to know that I'm.
14:19
[SPEAKER_00]: I was probably wrong.
14:21
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I thought like it's only right that we that we write what I've wronged in the past and because every time you're on and I do this with almost no other guests I always feel like I need a little game I don't know why it's weird for all of us, but I have one and this one is full house and so what I'm going to do is I'm going to give you a scenario that happened and you're going to tell me ABC how it resolved are you ready I'm ready okay DJ desperately wants to meet Stacy Q
14:49
[SPEAKER_00]: but the autograph signing is during school.
14:51
[SPEAKER_00]: What does she do?
14:52
[SPEAKER_00]: A, convince Danny, she has a dentist appointment.
14:55
[SPEAKER_00]: B, fake, spying sick and skip school.
14:57
[SPEAKER_00]: C, gets Uncle Jessie to sign her out early.
15:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, it's either B or C. It's not A.
15:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Candace was your final answer.
15:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, my final answer is, C, does she have Uncle Jessie help her skip school?
15:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Guys, I forgot to say early on.
15:16
[SPEAKER_00]: This is all about me being an extra, it will say who wins this.
15:19
[SPEAKER_00]: If she loses, I win extras.
15:21
[SPEAKER_00]: No kidding.
15:22
[SPEAKER_00]: No, you're incorrect as far as, and who can trust me, can't you?
15:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, she faked sick and went with you.
15:30
[SPEAKER_00]: You faked sick and skipped school, yes.
15:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Apparently, and I saw them all, but it's been a while, everybody.
15:37
[SPEAKER_00]: DJ pretends to be sick, Joy calls her in sick, and then she and Kimmy go to the mini mall for Stacey Q's autograph, and Joy and Michelle unexpectedly showed up there too, because Joy had planned to surprise DJ with the autograph himself.
15:50
[SPEAKER_00]: There you go.
15:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, number two, in the very first episode, DJ has fears about having to share her room with Stephanie, where does she move?
15:58
[SPEAKER_00]: A, the basement, B, the garage, C, Joey's room.
16:01
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the garage, which is okay.
16:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang.
16:05
[SPEAKER_00]: She got it.
16:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, here's number three.
16:08
[SPEAKER_00]: DJ's cousin Steve comes to visit, and she's thrilled because they used to be really close.
16:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Why does she end up upset with him?
16:17
[SPEAKER_00]: A, he spends the whole time chasing after Kimmy.
16:19
[SPEAKER_00]: B, he mostly wants to hang out with Danny Jesse and Joey instead of DJ, or C, he tells everyone he's embarrassed to hang around his younger cousin.
16:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Be you want to hang out with the guys.
16:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, extra credit everyone.
16:34
[SPEAKER_00]: If you know Candice knows if you know who played Steve.
16:38
[SPEAKER_00]: It is Candice your bro.
16:40
[SPEAKER_00]: It is Kirk Cameron my brother.
16:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
16:43
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
16:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, here's the next one.
16:46
[SPEAKER_00]: After DJ's miserable first day of junior high, where she wore the same outfit as her teacher, now that's her rarest thing.
16:53
[SPEAKER_02]: So, and there's this.
16:55
[SPEAKER_00]: What does she decide will help her fit in?
16:58
[SPEAKER_00]: A, getting a dramatically different haircut, like a bob, perhaps.
17:02
[SPEAKER_00]: B, wearing makeup and dressing older or C, pretending she's already in the eighth grade.
17:09
[SPEAKER_02]: She wore makeup and dressed up and put like little fake boobs in her top and her skirt or at least him did.
17:19
[SPEAKER_00]: This be wearing makeup and okay what you're doing you're doing good here okay you guys I've got two more and then she's off the hook.
17:27
[SPEAKER_00]: DJ goes to Steve senior prom Steven is ex girlfriend Rachel are crown prom king and queen and Rachel kiss a Steve what does DJ do?
17:37
[SPEAKER_00]: She leaves with Kimmy, she confronts Rachel's C, she kisses Rachel's date to make her jealous, to make Steve jealous.
17:45
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I think it's A, she just leaves.
17:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Right?
17:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, according to my sources, this one I don't think I've seen.
17:53
[SPEAKER_00]: She kissed Rachel's date to make Steve jealous.
17:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Did I?
17:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, it's Steve, and I got all creeped out.
17:59
[SPEAKER_00]: What's your brother's name again when he was, I mean, I was like Steve my cousin.
18:04
[SPEAKER_02]: And then my boyfriend's name was Steve, too.
18:06
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, okay, thank you, but yeah.
18:08
[SPEAKER_02]: DJ, that's one of them on to Mary and Fuller House.
18:11
[SPEAKER_02]: But okay, maybe I did.
18:14
[SPEAKER_02]: I remember that episode, but only
18:18
[SPEAKER_01]: because of the dress that I wore, but I don't remember what happened in the story, because I can't remember what happened in my story last week, so this is very unfair candidates, but none of those.
18:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, last one, when DJ and Steve finally decide to break up, where does the conversation happen?
18:34
[SPEAKER_00]: At the Tanner House after a big fight or be on Eagle Mountain after DJ take Steve Mountain climbing or see as Steve's college after GJ surprises him mountain climbing be on a rock big Eagle Mountain everybody now how about that okay?
18:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, you know what I think we've redeemed what went a rye last time maybe you did and you only missed one
18:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, maybe too, but, but I still want you to be in a Christmas movie.
19:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, thanks.
19:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks.
19:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, all right, so we're going to get some more important things.
19:10
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to be grandma times two.
19:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Am I right?
19:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Times two?
19:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
19:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh.
19:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you getting beyond?
19:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Like beyond, I have sitting here right now.
19:24
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a little bath, a little bath to put the baby in.
19:29
[SPEAKER_02]: Like I'm equipping my entire home for grandchildren because I'm just hoping that they'll always be over here.
19:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Because they live in fairly good proximity of you.
19:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that right or not?
19:41
[SPEAKER_01]: One of them.
19:42
[SPEAKER_02]: One of them does one of them is in Los Angeles.
19:47
[SPEAKER_02]: So that's a plain ride or a long, long drive.
19:51
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah.
19:53
[SPEAKER_01]: But I'll still be there often.
19:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, you will.
19:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And your grandma name is that public.
19:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it is because I think I read it all the way.
20:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, is it a gram and a gram is my gram a name and I love it I don't know if the kids are going to be able to say it and Whatever they want to call me, they can call me, but yeah, I thought that's real cute Thanks.
20:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and someone's got one of them is going to get it wrong It's going to be like crappy gram or something.
20:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm absolutely it cuz they're like a little and then there is going to be a rest of your life Yeah, yeah
20:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you recently in an interview I was listening to you were talking out turning 50 and just, you know, I think we all feel this way as we turn 50 It's like I care a lot less about my accomplishments and really I care about my legacy and what am I doing that matters and I was just curious as you think forward on this with grandkids and what kind of legacy I mean, do you have certain things that you're trying to really establish things you want to be known for?
20:52
[SPEAKER_02]: I just want the relationship to be there.
20:54
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the most important thing.
20:57
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to be there, a present available.
21:00
[SPEAKER_02]: I want them to know who grandma is and who their grandpa is.
21:08
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, that's it, like bottom line.
21:10
[SPEAKER_02]: I just wanna be a huge part of their lives.
21:13
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's the legacy.
21:15
[SPEAKER_02]: I just had my mom out this weekend.
21:17
[SPEAKER_02]: And, you know, it's just, I was close to my grandparents before they've all passed now, but just that general generational relationship is so very important.
21:29
[SPEAKER_02]: And my parents have done a great job with that.
21:32
[SPEAKER_02]: and their 17 grandkids, and now they're going to have four great grandkids pretty soon.
21:40
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and I just love that my kids know their grandma and grandpa.
21:44
[SPEAKER_02]: And I just want that for the same with my grandkids.
21:48
[SPEAKER_02]: So I don't care what they remember before.
21:51
[SPEAKER_02]: I just don't want to be like, oh, she's the mean grandma.
21:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I don't want to be there for that.
21:56
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I don't want to go to that grandma's house.
21:58
[SPEAKER_02]: The other grandma's more fun.
21:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, I want to be, I'm, I'm going to be the ice cream giving.
22:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Grandma at all times like whatever you've won I will still you but still you know follow the rules Whatever rules I have to follow I'll follow but if they're gonna get a lot of ice cream
22:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh, yeah, that's, I feel that way, unfortunately, Candace, I feel that way with my third child, you know, he's so much younger than anybody else.
22:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I tell people often, I'm just grandparenting him.
22:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I laugh at the things that probably need to be disciplined.
22:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, oh well, we'll just have to go get some ice cream to solve that and I'm like, somebody should really be taking better care of the scenario, but what you're gonna do, you're in your 50s.
22:41
[SPEAKER_01]: You're like, oh well, like life is too short.
22:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And that is a thing as a parent.
22:49
[SPEAKER_02]: we disciplined.
22:50
[SPEAKER_02]: We were very strict.
22:52
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say in just what our rules were and to be followed and teaching, you know, not just giving rules for the sake of it, but really helping them understand.
23:02
[SPEAKER_02]: And now I feel like, yeah, not my job anymore.
23:05
[SPEAKER_02]: You guys get to do that.
23:07
[SPEAKER_02]: I just want to have fun.
23:09
[SPEAKER_00]: It's exhausting, all this serious parenting.
23:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, and I don't know about you, but and I would think especially with grandkids coming that there's so much you would want to tell your kids about parenting now and that you're biting your tongue and you're like, you do you.
23:23
[SPEAKER_00]: But there's so many things that you're like, gosh, had I had known?
23:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I would totally do this differently.
23:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I can think of a thousand things.
23:30
[SPEAKER_00]: And I guess in a lot of senses, I'm getting to do that with my third, that's so much younger.
23:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm kind of like,
23:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not majoring on the minor anymore.
23:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, that's just a matter.
23:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care.
23:40
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm curious, is there anything you would tell like your younger, not your kids?
23:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Because we're not those kind of girls who are going to tell our kids how to parent.
23:48
[SPEAKER_00]: But what would you tell your 25-year-old self about parenting?
23:53
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, honestly, I would share the things that I thought worked really well.
23:58
[SPEAKER_02]: And I loved my kids being on a schedule.
24:05
[SPEAKER_02]: people like that.
24:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Some people don't, but man, my kids were all sleeping through the night.
24:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Bye.
24:11
[SPEAKER_02]: like a few months old and I'm not exaggerating and I loved it and so I would encourage them to do that but you know if they want to be whatever whatever they get to do that.
24:25
[SPEAKER_02]: It's their turn, not mine.
24:28
[SPEAKER_02]: But then I would also say as discipline as we were and we were very schedule oriented it really worked so well
24:41
[SPEAKER_02]: you can pick them up like you can still pick them up like we were so like no problem picking them up until they've cried it out for this or that like we were really strict and now I'd be like oh just go in and pick them up.
24:53
[SPEAKER_00]: It's okay.
24:55
[SPEAKER_00]: You followed baby wise.
24:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I know you was that.
24:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I did.
24:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I did too, and I ripped those bumpers out of the crib on my, well, she's clearly overstimulated.
25:05
[SPEAKER_00]: And I mean, and then I remember I was like, don't you, you have to play now.
25:09
[SPEAKER_00]: It's play time.
25:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I know you're seven days old, but you eat now.
25:12
[SPEAKER_00]: You may not nap it as play time.
25:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I did the thing.
25:16
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
25:16
[SPEAKER_01]: We did the thing, but you know what?
25:18
[SPEAKER_02]: It was, it worked out great, but I probably would tell my kids like, have a schedule, but you don't have to be quite as rigid.
25:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Totally totally.
25:27
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, so you have a new devotional coming out wild hope.
25:29
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a 30-day devotional to overcome life's challenges.
25:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And I love that you wrote something on hope because I, well, I was reading a study recently, a secular study and it was talking about, they were studying people who just did life better, did life differently.
25:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And
25:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And it was secular.
25:46
[SPEAKER_00]: And so they were similar to come down to like how you were raised and whether or not you had a certain amount of money or just different things, education.
25:54
[SPEAKER_00]: And the study said it turned out the difference maker and these people was hope.
25:59
[SPEAKER_00]: And it said it referred to them as high hope people, which I thought was such a great way to say it.
26:04
[SPEAKER_00]: And it said at the end of the day, high hope people act and live differently than everyone else.
26:09
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought, like, that's just gospel lining up with secular studies.
26:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, high hope people do act and live differently.
26:16
[SPEAKER_00]: And there should be no higher hope people than us because, I mean, we have a turnity, right?
26:22
[SPEAKER_00]: We have Jesus.
26:23
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I was thinking about that in the context of what you've written.
26:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Was hope one of those things like that you've struggled with or it's something you haven't.
26:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Why, why did you end up writing a diva about hope?
26:35
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that hope is the very thing that keeps us going.
26:39
[SPEAKER_02]: in life for all people.
26:41
[SPEAKER_02]: to thrive, to take the next step.
26:44
[SPEAKER_02]: You have to have hope.
26:47
[SPEAKER_02]: And probably like that study mentioned, there are some people that naturally have it more than others.
26:54
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm always thinking of when I'm writing a devotional, what is the problem or what is the issue?
27:00
[SPEAKER_02]: What are people facing that we can encourage?
27:05
[SPEAKER_02]: We can inspire, we can tell them, hey, this is where we find it, give them some answers.
27:10
[SPEAKER_02]: Hope is one of those things.
27:11
[SPEAKER_02]: I would say I'm a person that naturally has more hope, like I'm a very optimistic person, but I know that my hope is found in the Lord.
27:20
[SPEAKER_02]: And no matter what my circumstances are here, good or bad, it doesn't change the hope that I have in the Lord.
27:29
[SPEAKER_02]: And I can always look to that hope.
27:31
[SPEAKER_02]: It's within my reach because I can talk to God.
27:36
[SPEAKER_02]: any moment of the day, I can pray to Him and I can read His word and remind myself for new my mind and say, hey, what does God say about me?
27:45
[SPEAKER_02]: What does God say about the situation I'm in?
27:49
[SPEAKER_02]: How when I'm down, when I'm scraping, when I'm just at the end of it with myself, where can I look to to have that hope to take the next step and I can remind myself then,
28:05
[SPEAKER_02]: remind myself that God is always with me, that God hears everything, God isn't unaware of anything that's going on in my life, and then pray for whatever the need is to get me to the next step.
28:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, that's a good word and I think like you're saying like point description, scripture is so hopeful and hopeful.
28:26
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like you, I tend to run optimistic maybe to a flaw like I'm always like, oh, it's going to be great.
28:31
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll work that out.
28:32
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not a problem.
28:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And sometimes I can't really sit in the feelings of what's hard because I just want to move to the hopeful side.
28:38
[SPEAKER_00]: But I do think, um,
28:40
[SPEAKER_00]: you are very good at getting rid of the things that steal hope.
28:44
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's something worth paying attention to like knowing for yourself.
28:48
[SPEAKER_00]: What are the things that kind of steal hope?
28:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I have friends that say like if they don't get a certain amount of sleep, like they're just like not, they're not themselves.
28:56
[SPEAKER_00]: They're not right or social media.
28:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Like that is a total hope stealer.
29:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I think there's so many of us.
29:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you, have you had things that you look at in your life and you're like, I'm, I'm either too busy or socially certain things that you try to just really get, get your hands around and keep it from stealing hope?
29:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I would say for me, busyness is one of the things that steals hope.
29:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Social media for so many people because again, we know that social media is always the best of the best and we compare and we think we're not leaving our best life because
29:33
[SPEAKER_02]: But I'm pretty good with social media, and that way that I know it, I just, because I know what I put out, and I'm always putting all the good stuff out, the hopeful stuff, and it's therefore a purpose, but you're not always, you're not seeing half the stuff that goes on when I'm crying, and I'm,
29:52
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, just agonizing over something or really in a moment of prayer because like for not always going to share it like people don't need to know that business It is personal.
30:00
[SPEAKER_02]: You're going to share it with personal friends and family So I get that with social media, but I would say my busyness can steel my hope because I'm not always in the past
30:13
[SPEAKER_02]: present moment of my day, and I want to be aware of not just where I want to be, but where God wants me to be, and where God has me, and not miss those moments, whether they're with people, or work that I can do, or just receiving the word that the Holy Spirit is guiding me, and you know, when you've got your spin in a ton of plates, and you've got a lot going on,
30:43
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, what am I doing all of this for?
30:45
[SPEAKER_02]: What's the purpose?
30:46
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you have to go back to what is the purpose?
30:49
[SPEAKER_02]: Why am I doing all of this?
30:50
[SPEAKER_02]: And there is my hope.
30:51
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, my hope is in the Lord.
30:52
[SPEAKER_02]: And so am I doing this for the Lord?
30:55
[SPEAKER_02]: Or am I just doing this for myself?
30:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, I was listening to sermon recently and they were talking out just being a disciple of Christ and that you always need to be evaluating three things.
31:04
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think this applies to hope too.
31:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Evaluate the people around you, evaluate your practices and evaluate your possessions.
31:12
[SPEAKER_00]: And if there's people, practices, or possessions, any of that that's keeping you from being a disciple of Christ, then you've got to pivot.
31:18
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's hope too, if you look around and who you're surrounding your souls with.
31:24
[SPEAKER_00]: And what are your practices?
31:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you to your point?
31:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you too busy?
31:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you strong out?
31:28
[SPEAKER_00]: What are you chasing after?
31:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Those things.
31:30
[SPEAKER_00]: And then, you know, what we're prioritizing.
31:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think that that's a good word.
31:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Possessions, I think, is interesting too, because some of the things you think are going to bring you such joy actually are just like cumbersome.
31:41
[SPEAKER_00]: And you're like, that's not benefiting anybody.
31:43
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I think that's a good word on just what you're saying about hope.
31:46
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm excited about the devotional.
31:48
[SPEAKER_00]: When does it come out?
31:49
[SPEAKER_00]: It's out.
31:50
[SPEAKER_00]: It's out.
31:51
[SPEAKER_00]: It's out.
31:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, perfect.
31:52
[SPEAKER_00]: So, everybody can get it.
31:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if I have a copy or not, but if I don't, people, I'm ordering one, and it's going to be my little October thing.
31:59
[SPEAKER_00]: It's got the cutest cover ever.
32:01
[SPEAKER_00]: It is a cute.
32:02
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, it's like desert.
32:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that what I'm looking at?
32:05
[SPEAKER_01]: This is like, yeah, it's a little bit, yeah, it's a desert cover.
32:09
[SPEAKER_02]: It has such beautiful photographs in it too.
32:13
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's an interactive devotional, which is what I like.
32:15
[SPEAKER_02]: I ask you questions.
32:17
[SPEAKER_02]: I give you little things.
32:18
[SPEAKER_02]: tasks to do.
32:20
[SPEAKER_02]: But I love this.
32:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Can I read this for a second?
32:23
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the very end.
32:26
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a little guided prayer for a wild hope.
32:28
[SPEAKER_02]: It says, Dear God, your word says, oh gosh, I need my reading glasses.
32:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, here we are.
32:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Grandma, grandma, can't be grandma over here.
32:38
[SPEAKER_02]: Your word says that as the source of hope, you fill me completely with joy and peace.
32:45
[SPEAKER_02]: because I trust you.
32:46
[SPEAKER_02]: And because of that trust, I'll overflow with a confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.
32:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you for such a wonderful promise, God, help me to always remember that you offer me hope, peace, and joy, no matter what I'm facing, remind me of this truth, especially in my hardest moments.
33:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh, I love that.
33:07
[SPEAKER_02]: Adding courage, man.
33:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and this is a great, and I mean this, everyone.
33:11
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a great gift for a friend, like a birthday present or whatever.
33:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is, because one, it's so pretty, but also he doesn't need these reminders of hope.
33:19
[SPEAKER_00]: So anyway, it's out, grab a copy, everyone.
33:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, here's the other deal.
33:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know why you're even here, because you're so busy, because you just did special forces, worlds, toughest test.
33:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Candice, what's wrong with you?
33:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Why would you say yes to that?
33:37
[SPEAKER_01]: You are in the jungle at Malaysia.
33:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Have you ever seen this show before?
33:42
[SPEAKER_01]: You can be honest.
33:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't.
33:44
[SPEAKER_02]: Now you have to watch it.
33:46
[SPEAKER_02]: You have to watch it.
33:47
[SPEAKER_02]: So listen, I...
33:50
[SPEAKER_02]: I've been asked to do almost every reality show.
33:54
[SPEAKER_02]: I've only done a few to dancing with the stars and then I did one episode of the masked singer because I wasn't very good and I was like the first one in my group voted off.
34:06
[SPEAKER_02]: But I didn't ask to do all of them and aside from the very few that I like, I pretty much say no.
34:13
[SPEAKER_02]: And this one came along.
34:15
[SPEAKER_02]: Now,
34:17
[SPEAKER_02]: It's different than reality shows.
34:18
[SPEAKER_02]: You're not like it's a celebrity lost out in the jungle.
34:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my gosh, can they survive without their makeup and cell phone?
34:26
[SPEAKER_02]: Like it's not David.
34:27
[SPEAKER_02]: Where's David?
34:30
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, so this show called Special Forces is all about training with the Navy Seals.
34:38
[SPEAKER_02]: And this is it's you're you're really only in competition with yourself.
34:43
[SPEAKER_02]: You're not getting voted off.
34:45
[SPEAKER_02]: You're not sparring with the other people on the show.
34:49
[SPEAKER_02]: They're not trying to make you go at them.
34:52
[SPEAKER_02]: This is really about can you tough it out and train with the Navy SEALS.
34:56
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, for those of you that kind of follow me on socials or know me a little bit, I really like working out and I've really up to my game in the last year and a half because I wanted to hit my 50s in like going in a good shape.
35:13
[SPEAKER_02]: I wanted to deal with menopause in the best way that I can.
35:17
[SPEAKER_02]: So when I got the call to be on special forces,
35:21
[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, oh, I am really going to pray about this.
35:26
[SPEAKER_02]: And I really wanted to do it.
35:30
[SPEAKER_02]: And then I was also extremely scared of doing it.
35:33
[SPEAKER_02]: And had to talk to Val about doing it.
35:36
[SPEAKER_02]: And you know, so there's a lot of conversation and prayer.
35:40
[SPEAKER_02]: But in my spirit, I was like, I think I need to do this.
35:43
[SPEAKER_02]: I
35:44
[SPEAKER_02]: had just turned 50 years old and I was like I think this is an opportunity that God's going like go do it.
35:50
[SPEAKER_02]: See what you're made of.
35:52
[SPEAKER_02]: And so I said yes.
35:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh my gosh.
35:56
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't wait to watch the show back because I don't know how it's going to be edited.
36:04
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what parts they're going to show and what they're what they're I'm just excited to go on the journey with everyone.
36:09
[SPEAKER_02]: It's crazy.
36:12
[SPEAKER_02]: And one of the hardest things I've ever done in my life, but excited to watch along with all the viewers because I don't really know what it's gonna look like, you know?
36:22
[SPEAKER_02]: But I did crazy crazy stuff.
36:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so I believe it.
36:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm here for it.
36:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna watch it all.
36:28
[SPEAKER_00]: And if they edit you and do you dirty, please let me know.
36:31
[SPEAKER_00]: And I will tell all four of my followers how mad I am about it, okay?
36:35
[SPEAKER_00]: It'll be fine.
36:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna come back if they do me dirty.
36:38
[SPEAKER_01]: And then we're going to go through all of it so that I can like tell you what actually happened.
36:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, yes, you are.
36:45
[SPEAKER_00]: But okay, so I'm thinking like if I have to get to send it, there's a lot of problems for me going.
36:49
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm going to struggle with the claustrophobia stuff.
36:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I'm just wanting for you, heights claustrophobia, lack of sleep, eating weird things.
36:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Like what like if you were like, I had a massive pause because what if this happens?
37:01
[SPEAKER_00]: What would the thing be your scared of?
37:04
[SPEAKER_02]: So I was very scared of one thing and that is heights.
37:10
[SPEAKER_02]: That was it for me.
37:12
[SPEAKER_01]: And that was definitely challenged.
37:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, good.
37:16
[SPEAKER_00]: We're gonna see that, all right.
37:18
[SPEAKER_00]: And was there something surprising?
37:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, did you have like a strength or weakness and you're like, I had no idea.
37:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I was just good at something or this bad at something.
37:28
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I would say that show shows or a,
37:35
[SPEAKER_02]: It shows your weaknesses the most.
37:38
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
37:39
[SPEAKER_02]: So we're going to see what it did work.
37:40
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you're going to see what it is.
37:42
[SPEAKER_02]: There were some, yeah, big ones for me.
37:45
[SPEAKER_02]: And places where I really thought that I would be more mentally strong or capable.
37:52
[SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, huh.
37:54
[SPEAKER_02]: I was surprised at my own choices that I made because when you're in really extreme high-stress situations, it's like fight or flight, you're really making decisions because your life depends on it.
38:10
[SPEAKER_02]: And I thought I would be a little bit more cool and collected than I would.
38:18
[SPEAKER_02]: And that surprised me as a little disappointed with myself.
38:21
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll say that at times.
38:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
38:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, well, I cannot wait to watch it.
38:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to go on bare grills.
38:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you know bare grills?
38:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I love that show.
38:30
[SPEAKER_00]: And that seems to be a little more tame.
38:32
[SPEAKER_00]: If you ever get on bare grills, it's probably because of me.
38:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I planted this and then I would like to at least get a shout out.
38:39
[SPEAKER_00]: It's fine, everyone.
38:41
[SPEAKER_00]: What's the first thing though when you got back home then?
38:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Were you like, you got home from this whole taping thing?
38:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And you're like, I got to go eat at this place.
38:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Or I got to go get David deal with my hair.
38:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, what was the creature comfort?
38:53
[SPEAKER_01]: a shower and a toilet.
38:56
[SPEAKER_02]: In a shower and a toilet.
38:59
[SPEAKER_02]: I think I shoured for about an hour.
39:03
[SPEAKER_02]: There was mud in places that I didn't know they could stay.
39:07
[SPEAKER_02]: That's beautiful.
39:08
[SPEAKER_02]: I watched my body.
39:13
[SPEAKER_02]: so many times, it was rough and a toilet.
39:18
[SPEAKER_02]: Now this is one of the wonderful things about living in America and some other great countries is that we pretty much have toilets everywhere and a lot of people in the world don't but that has not been my experience.
39:32
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean I have been to Africa before and even Japan like their public toilets aren't always
39:43
[SPEAKER_02]: So that I was like really happy to sit on a toilet.
39:48
[SPEAKER_02]: It.
39:48

39:49
[SPEAKER_02]: It's the small things, right?

39:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
39:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Nobody needed that hope devotional more than you did.
39:58
[SPEAKER_01]: When you were in the Malaysian jungle out there, trying to figure out how to get the dirt out of the inspeakable parts.
40:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Seriously.
40:05
[SPEAKER_02]: I think that was probably one of my the biggest things was the amount of
40:11
[SPEAKER_02]: Memorized before I went out into the jungle to just be able to pull it up immediately because I knew I was going to need the hope of the Lord to just get me through even to the next meal, you know, so that was so helpful.
40:29
[SPEAKER_02]: It was good.
40:30
[SPEAKER_02]: I did some extra memorizing before that.
40:33
