• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Do I throw it away or do I give it away?
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: It's one more thing.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: I'm strong and getty.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Oh a rare.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Michaelangelo hosts one more thing before we get to his topic.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: During the radio show, we brought up that the smart
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: rings that you can get I guess there's a couple
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: of different brands, is like this four and a dollar
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: ring you wear on your finger and it can measure
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: all your heart health, sleep, habits, blah blah blah stuff.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: And you have an app with your phone and everything
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: like that. And you said you had one for a while, Katie.
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And I checked it probably regularly for maybe a
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: month and a half two months, and I was like,
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: all right, it's just I don't know what to do
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: with this information.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Oh that's a pretty decent point. And I would imagine
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: unless you make drastic changes in your life, a lot
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: of it's going to be the same for a very
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: long time, maybe the rest of your life.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: But so you got indications that you weren't sleeping much
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: or enough.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I wasn't getting enough hours and I wasn't spending
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: enough time in rem sleep and I've again, I don't
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: know how to change that.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: Was it like sleep apnea or something like that, because
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: I worry about that occasionally.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: But m M, it wasn't sleep apna. My heart rate
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: stayed the same, my breathing was normal. It was just
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: I bounce out of deep sleep really quickly.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: Well that's a good point. Now, the hours, obviously, you
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: could we could all change the number of hours we
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: spend in bed. You can't change the number of hours
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: that you're in ram. I mean, I don't know how
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: I would.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: No something specific going on, and I have this weird
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: complex where it's like I felt like it was telling
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: me I was doing a bad job.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: So I was like, I'm done listening to you. That's funny.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: That's what Tim Sanderfer says. He doesn't want his watch
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: yelling at him for not standing up enough and stuff.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, kidding, shut up.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: I had a dream the other night that I was
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: lifting weights at the gym. I was by myself in there,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: and I dropped the bar on my neck and I
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: was trying to crawl to my car to drive myself
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: to the er. And it was one of those dreams
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: that seemed like that lasted all night long. It could
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: have been five minutes. Yeah, it's like what does that mean?
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: And it clearly was. It's funny. I just had the
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: conversation with the therapist about how I don't ask for help.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: I need help with various things. I'm getting snowed under,
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: trying to take care of the kids by myself, blah
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: blah blah, don't I hire more help? And that's clearly
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: what the dream was. I was crawling to my car
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: with my crushed throat so I could drive myself to
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: the er rather than calling nine one one or something.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: I think that's what the dream.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: Meant, right, It sure sounds like it.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Of course, dreams don't have to mean anything. Joe and
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I used to have dream analysts on all the time,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: and they were mostly Charlatan's.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Ridiculous laughable, so we laughed.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: So you know, it wasn't that bad taking advantage of
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: sad or old people. What's your story, Michael.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: My wife has looked in the closet and says I
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: need to throw away all my old.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Clothes basically because of fashion or size.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: I don't wear them and it's just taking up space.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: But yeah, do I I guess the question I have is,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: for example, we have some old towels. She wants to
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: change out the towels. But I've told her, hey, just
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: wash them, we can give them away to goodwill or
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: something like that. She wants me to throw them away.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: And how often do you change out towels? For example?
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, do you guys change them out every rid
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: of them?
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: I mean do you change them out every six months?
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: No? When we're ashamed of them, that's when you you
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: get rid of. There's nothing you're embarrassed for people to
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: look at them.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: I realize my lifestyle is not like most people's, but
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know that I ever have in my life
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: other than like they just get lost or something.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: But yeah, like you, Jack, I just keep the same
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: towels and keep re washing them. Ye.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I've never kept thirty years.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: I've never kept a towel long enough to wear it out.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I don't think.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: Can how do you lose them like a bath? Tell
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: what happens to them?
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't have the same towels I
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: don't have well, I don't have the same towels I
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: had when I was twenty five. But I never act.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm as, That's what.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: I'm wondering too. I've never actively gotten rid of them.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: You know what I do a lot, and this is
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: not good. Is I've moved a lot in my life.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I'm bad at unpacking. I'm doing this right now in
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: my house. I have an unpacked since my last move.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Like I bought some new a new screwdriver last night
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: at the store because I don't know where my screwdriver
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: is from the move, so I probably do that. I
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: got boxes of old towels. I've never opened the boxes,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: so I had to get new towels. That's probably what
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: I do. But no, I have never thought does your
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: wife do this because she wants a different look, like
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: a different color, or is it because she thinks they're
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: worn out?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: She thinks they're worn out, well, then get new towels.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: But what's what I'm trying to save money? And so
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: what's a.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Worn out tile? What is a worn out towel?
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: It looks kind of threadbare and just black. Doesn't look
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: nice anymore.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: It's unraveling, Okay, I don't.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: I just figure if it washes my body and I'm
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: happy with you. I wash them and that's it. You
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: wash yourself with your towel, well, you know you dry
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: yourself with the towel.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: But there you go.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: As far as saving money, though, I just, I just
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I don't want her to keep buying new stuff.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: And it's just, well, this sounds like a thing between
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: you and your wife.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: But wow, yeah, I'm not waiting involve it.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: No, I have opinions, but it just doesn't seem like
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: a good idea away in Although I buy high quality
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: towels so they would last practically forever, I'm one of
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: the few things and I've always been willing to splurge on.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: I love the feel of a good, high quality towel. Huh. Yeah.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: She wants me to throw them away, not give them away.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: She says, you can't give those two goodwill And I said,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: why not, They're perfectly fine, and she says, no, no,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: we've been using them. And I say, well, just wash them.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: You know, I would say, bring them to said charity
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: or a charity of your choice, and if they want them,
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: they'll take them. If they don't, they will heave them.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Katie, I've got comments, but.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: No, I'm just I mean, how bad of shape are
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: they in?
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: Michael?
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Can you read the newspaper through them?
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: No?
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: No, they're in good shape.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: So, and I do not want to weigh in this
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: on this at all. I'm only asking a.
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: Lady wants new towels, all right, Katie, I'm only the
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: lady or towels.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: I'm only asking for information purposes. So she doesn't want
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: to give him away because she doesn't think it's cool
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: to give somebody a used towel. Correct, Okay, well, okay,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: by definition, I mean goodwill stuff tends to go to
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: people that are pretty down and out usually, and I
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: think they'd rather have a used towel of a no towel.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: But you can always donate them.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: I was sorry to like the SPCA or something for
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: the animals.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Dogs don't use towels. I've watched dogs over and over.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: They just shake.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: I wish they would. Um Boy does backshirt, like if
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: we walk him in the rain, Boy does. He liked
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: to get toweled off, so it's a win win. He's
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: not resistant to it because it feels.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Really it's a race between getting the towel on the
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: dog and them shaking. They standing in the doorway or
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: something like that and they shake. You got hair and
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: splacker everywhere.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah. Pro tip towels in the garage. You gotta
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: be prepped, you gotta be ready. Uh where were we?
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, let the free market function, missus, Mike Lingel.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: If somebody wants to buy the towels, let them. That
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: is a coming together of a need and a fulfillment
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: of that need.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Of course.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: I I'm a.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Guy who buys used shoes off of eBay and stuff
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: like that. So I mean, I think a shoe is
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: way grosser than a towel. He can wash a towel.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Whenever my parents go through a towel or whatever,
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: my dad cuts it in half and uses them for
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: the gym.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: That's a good idea. Or use it just for like
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: cleaning my car, washing my car and d yeah, something
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: like that. Yeah, that is I've done that with towels before.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: That's true. I have done that. They move from the
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: drying my body to the drawing my motorcycle.
