Speaker1: Hi, everyone. It's me, Gary, here alongside my great co-host,
0:04
Speaker1: Jennifer Miller, and welcome back again to the Eye Opener Society.
0:07
Speaker1: This is our, I don't know, our New Year's episode.
0:11
Speaker1: Most of you are all waking up and probably tuning in, which we really appreciate.
0:17
Speaker1: It's been kind of a shit show of a year, another dumpster fire.
0:23
Speaker1: I don't know what's really been going on. It started off pretty well,
0:26
Speaker1: and then it just kind of gone downhill, especially towards the end here.
0:31
Speaker1: I'm still kind of in limbo as far as my wife and I, as far as where we're going
0:35
Speaker1: to live and stuff like that.
0:37
Speaker1: I mean, we have some good prospects, but everything's still not written in stone as of yet.
0:43
Speaker1: So hopefully this week I'll have some good news on that.
0:45
Speaker1: I just want to say that there's probably many of you out there that are going
0:49
Speaker1: through similar struggles or struggles that are completely different,
0:53
Speaker1: and you may not know what way to turn.
0:55
Speaker1: And that's just the way it goes. But I do want everybody to hang on,
1:01
Speaker1: to remain strong, and to keep pushing forward because in the end,
1:07
Speaker1: it's only going to work out according to your positivity.
1:11
Speaker1: I've been keeping my positivity high and it's actually helped me.
1:15
Speaker1: It's just these here rollercoaster of emotions. It's just basically exhaustion
1:20
Speaker1: right now, but keep it alive.
1:21
Speaker1: Keep your spirit alive don't let anything get you down i
1:25
Speaker1: think that's just what i'm going to tell you know everybody here at the audience
1:29
Speaker1: for this new year i do want to say too that as far as resolutions i never really
1:35
Speaker1: stick to these kind of traditions but this year i'm going to change the world
1:38
Speaker1: one person at a time because one thing i realized
1:43
Speaker1: Everything is our fault. It's as simple as that. We allow everything to happen.
1:48
Speaker1: We allow everything that goes on to happen because we allow when things are
1:53
Speaker1: bad, when things aren't going well, we never change it.
1:56
Speaker1: We just let them keep going on and on. So everything's our fault.
2:00
Speaker1: I would like to just change that one person at a time.
2:04
Speaker1: Everybody I meet, I'm going to remain positive. And if they are negative,
2:09
Speaker1: I want to figure out what it is that's negative and how to change it into a
2:12
Speaker1: positive. So that's what I want to do this year.
2:14
Speaker1: That's my new year's resolution And i'm going to turn things over now to my
2:18
Speaker1: buddy here jennifer mill who's been a major inspiration So far.
2:22
Speaker1: Thank you Honestly, you have been and I appreciate and going into the new year
2:26
Speaker1: You and I are going to have a lot of big things going on too So I don't know
2:30
Speaker1: whatever it is you want to say about the new year jennifer. Go ahead. Take it away
2:33
Speaker0: I don't really have any new year's resolutions or any, you know Thing on it.
2:38
Speaker0: I think if you have goals that you want to meet I say do them
2:41
Speaker0: when you think of them i don't i don't wait till the end of the
2:44
Speaker0: year i mean i know a lot of people do because it
2:47
Speaker0: helps with structure and and you know just the beginning of
2:49
Speaker0: the year like how everyone says well i'll start my diet
2:52
Speaker0: next month beginning of the month just because it's like
2:56
Speaker0: structured it's it's kind of like a plan me i'm
2:59
Speaker0: just like if you feel like doing it right then and there do it
3:02
Speaker0: start working on it um i will
3:05
Speaker0: say we're a superstitious bunch though because we don't
3:08
Speaker0: clean the day of new year's um you don't clean you don't wash away the good
3:13
Speaker0: luck you don't vacuum up the good luck um you don't touch anybody with a broom
3:18
Speaker0: so the muskers will get you um and then um i don't i really just don't have any goals i mean,
3:27
Speaker0: i'm pretty satisfied but i do have to say this year has been a dumpster fire it really has just.
3:34
Speaker1: I mean, all in general,
3:35
Speaker0: Like if I had to think of a dumpster fire, I think 2024 would be that number
3:40
Speaker0: right there on fire burning with me holding a marshmallow and a beer, you know,
3:47
Speaker0: that's about it. I don't have anything really.
3:51
Speaker1: You know. Yeah, I get you. It's it's same with me.
3:54
Speaker1: It's like I said, I'm just going into a new year with a whole new outlook and
3:57
Speaker1: I'm going to try and change things a little bit because, yeah,
4:00
Speaker1: there's been a lot of anger.
4:01
Speaker1: There's been a lot of hatred and
4:03
Speaker1: that's not what I'm about. I like to be positive. I like to be energetic.
4:06
Speaker1: And I want to just spread that out to the world.
4:09
Speaker1: But again, first, I'm just going to do a bunch of shout outs here because there's
4:13
Speaker1: been a lot of people that helped out through this year as far as the podcast
4:16
Speaker1: is concerned, as well as in personal life.
4:19
Speaker1: And one of them top right here, Jennifer Miller, you have been a major inspiration.
4:24
Speaker1: It's been nice that you took over and been able to jump in with zero experience
4:29
Speaker1: and you're still rocking it. So that's really good.
4:32
Speaker0: But i mean yeah i'm happy with that yeah that's cool i mean yeah zero experience
4:37
Speaker0: i mean i'm even nervous now like i'm always nervous when i so like if you guys
4:42
Speaker0: think i'm just an antsy person and just kind of annoying no it's just me being
4:46
Speaker0: nervous give me some time maybe i'll go out of the shell yeah.
4:51
Speaker1: And you know we're totally used to that here too because when hannah was sitting
4:54
Speaker1: in your seat at the extreme anxiety that she suffered from like i would feel
4:59
Speaker1: it it would actually affect me and my podcasting voice too as well.
5:02
Speaker1: So used to it. Don't worry about it. You're doing a bang up job,
5:05
Speaker1: man. You really are. I love everything that you bring into the table.
