• 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, guest,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: You're own presences. Presence and.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I already had too much stuff, So how do you
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: dare to surbey me?
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: Welcome to I said, no gifts, I'm Pritchard Wineger. We're
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: here in the studio. I've had a surprisingly efficient morning.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: I went to Costco, got in, got out, got exactly
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: what I needed, some breakfast bars because Jim has been
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: eating mine because he overinvested in his type of bars,
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: and those are the Robert Irving or something. Irvine, the
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: guy who did the restaurant Impossible, has now started making
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: bars and they're disgusting. So now Jim's eating mine. And
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: I had to go to Costco. And then I put
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: my bars on the conveyor belt and the person behind
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: me corrected the way I put them on the conveyor belt.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: I didn't say anything to him, and he had grazed
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: my ankle with his cart, so I guess I saved
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: it all just to talk about on the podcast rather
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: than confront him. He was bald, I was wearing I
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: had a gold chain, so keep your eye out for him.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: What else is going on? I've been watching The Mortician.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: This is a documentary on HBO. If you haven't heard
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: of this, it's kind of about a mortician who runs
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: a crematory where he this isn't giving anything away. He
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: put a lot of bodies into the friar at once
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: and was you know, I don't see that much wrong
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: with it, very efficient. He was doing like forty thousand
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: bodies a year. Maybe there were some suspicious deaths around him,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: don't I can't speak to that. I also, look, if
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: my body gets thrown into the fryar with a bunch
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: more and it's not a friar, it's an oven. Sure,
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: if my ashes get mixed up, my family gets somebody else,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: maybe look at somebody with a better personality. I don't know.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's that big of a deal. I'm
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: on his side. And if, truly, if anyone in my
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: family spends more than fifty dollars on my funeral, I'm
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: coming back and I will make your lives a living hell.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: What else Patreon continues to exist. I think by the
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: time this is out will be kind of wrapping up
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: season two of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. It's been
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: quite a journey, and it's been explosive, absolutely explosive. So
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: get on there, join us for bonus episodes, whatever, let's
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: get into the show. I adore today's guest. He's fantastic.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: It's Beck Bennett.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: Oh god, it's so nice to be here.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: I'm so happy you could be here.
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: I really, it's really a pleasure to be in your
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: you know, in your what's the word, I don't have
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: the word, not your studio, but you're like or in
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: your orbit. Yeah, you're comforting, like I feel very taking
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: care of him. I hope, I feel like I could.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Like we talked a little bit before, we said we
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: can say anything to go anywhere, and it really feels
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: that way. It feels like there are no judgments here.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: There will be no judgments. I'm only asking questions.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: It's great to be here in a judgment for his own,
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: you know, because most places these days, you're gonna you
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: say the wrong thing, you do the wrong thing, You're
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: gonna get a look.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: You can't be funny anymore.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: You can't be funny.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: People are so icy, they're so sensitive.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: Yes, they really are but I you know, I gotta
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: I'm I'm blown away by your Costco story. There's so
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: many things there that I really want to jump on.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: First of all, the bar. What's your bar?
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: My bar is a it's called a think bar.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: Oh, yes, the think bar. The twenty grams approach, no sugar,
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: no sugar. Absolutely, so I I've always done those. Oh
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: I did the peanut butter ones.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Yes, sure, And they started to have a little bit.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Of a like a funk smell to them. And I'm like,
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: is this because they've been sitting on the shelves for
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: two years, three years? Or is it the flavor? And
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: I switched over to a chocolate okay, flavor and it
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: doesn't have the same smell.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: Now they have the Variety pack, which is a chocolate
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: and a peanut butter okay. And I think the problem
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: is if you eat too many at like in a row,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: if you.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: Have like a ten pack a day, then.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: I don't get it. No, you have to every other
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: day or you start to recognize, oh, this is a
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: bad tasting thing.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this is this is fake. This is not good. Right.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: Science has created a thing that, like your brain can
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: be tricked momentarily but then it starts to catch on. Yeah,
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: so if you alternate, it's fine.
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: It's fine.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Are you eating these for breakfast?
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: No? These are These are snacks and like that. Bring
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: them with me when I don't have time for a meal,
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: you know, in between type of thing.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: I'll put them in my backpack if I'm going on
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: a flight. This kind of it's nice.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: At the same time, they are they are covered in
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: some sort of sugar free chocolate that will melt.
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so that was a little bit of a hiccup.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: I would like a non chocolate cover so they're impervious
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: to the melting situation and I don't make a mess
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: when I open it.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I do have five currently five boxes in my car
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: and it's about eighty five degrees.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're cooked. They are just one big blob. And
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: you can put them in the freezer and pull them off.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: You know, they've got that weird shape to it. You know,
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: you can bring the shape back.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah. The chocolate and the peanut butter will mix together
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: a little bit. It'll be a new type and I
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: need to mix up.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, that's a good way to mix up your bars.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: Just put them in your car and melt them away
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: and just give them a new form.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: And I mean the chemicals every day. Yeah, for probably
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: the last four years.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: I think they're the most effective power bar.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, protein bar, because I've tried to others. You know,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: there's the guy that my boyfriend has been eating them.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: I'm surprised he went with his bars. I mean, like
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: you're talking about the restaurant.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: The rescue guy has a bar, the guy that's like
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: super jazz.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: And that's like definitely is emotional problems.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: And I don't think any of the skills required to
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: do the show he's doing.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: I don't think, like what expertise is he bringing to
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: the bars, to the restaurants or the bars.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's not. It's not It doesn't seem helpful to me.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: No.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: I feel like he was like probably part of Seal
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Team six or something and he's like, now I'm going
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: to save Dumpy restaurant in Nebraska. And I don't think
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: anyone should trust anything he's doing.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: Absolutely not. I'm not surprised that the bars.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Were bars are revolting. They are the sweetest. They look
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: like they are appealing. It looks like a candy bar
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: has kind of you would think maybe these are candy
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: bar ingredients. Yeah, you bite into that thing and that's sugar,
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: alcohol all the way.
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: Really crazy, the variety of bars out there. You don't
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: know what is a candy bar, what's going to be
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: sort of good for you?
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: And at Costco you get into that aisle.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: It's I haven't made it yet. I'm a member of Costco.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: Here's the other thing. Haven't even made it in yet. No.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: I joined for my son's third birthday.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: He begged you.
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he was like. I was like, okay, I'm going
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: to go get all the juice boxes and everything for
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: the birthday party, and which he he threw up an
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: hour into the birthday party and it was just it
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: was all wasted. Basically, everybody went home and everybody was scared.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: But I went to Costco to get a membership for
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: me and my wife. I was like, I'm going out
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: of town or something. I was getting it so she
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: could go shopping when I was getting out of town
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: or something. And there was this whole thing where they
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: were like, no, she has to come here and show.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Her idea and she will serious about it.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: It was so intense.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: They do they don't play games.
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: They do not play games. It was so it was yeah,
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: it was very intense. And then the last thing I
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: want to say about that opening story is the guy
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: who he rearranged your.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: Bars, yes, without my permission.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: That is that is so I would. I mean, of
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: course you have this place to just unload and be
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: like the guy with the chain costco, be careful. He's
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: going to go over your heels.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: That is just we got him.
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the other and the other. Just yesterday, I was
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: at a farmer's market with my son in a in
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: a what's it called a wagon, that's what it's called,
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: like a red wagon. Yeah, no, but it's like black
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: and it like folds off. It's kind of like an
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: escalade of wagons, which is why I like don't think
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: of burgage. Yeah. Basically, and I'm going through and there's
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: just when you have a child and like older guys
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: typically or like just like standing there and not getting
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: out of the way. I basically ran over him and
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: I was like I walked by and I was like,
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: excuse me, excuse me, and he like I just went
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: I was going forward, went over his foot a little bit.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: He was pulling back, you know, and as he was
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: pulling back. I said, you can do it. Oh excuse me, sorry, anyway,
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: that to me, the relating things that I have.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: It's a big issue for me in my life. Something
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: that nothing will send me off, like someone not being
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: aware of how much space the bottle is taking up.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Meanwhile, my wife was in line for uh, I
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: forget what it was. She was getting like these like
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: rice ball things at the farmer's market, right, and a
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: woman was hovering over her shoulder, and she was like,
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: this woman has been hovering over me. She's been like
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: right up against my back. Every time I move forward,
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: she like almost almost bumps into me. And she was
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: at the point of like I'm about to say something,
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: of course, and then she went to get her food
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: and the woman was hovering over her again. I'm like,
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: I have to say something. I have to. I'm the
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: person who says something.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: Did you say something?
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: Oh not not in that, you know. To the guy,
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: I said, you can do it, and I ran over
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: his foot.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: But usually these people are like if you do say something,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: then suddenly you become the villain. You're the one that
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: was too sensitive.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: It is, yeah, because they are if they're displaying that
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: sort of you know, that sort of behavior. They're off
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: and you don't know what you're messing with.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you have no idea of what rules they're following.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: That's true, that's true. That's I subscribe to that for sure.
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: With any sort of sports thing. You know, a guy
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: weren't like people at sports bars and sports events or
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: road rage. You know, I'm like, never confrontation because but
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: in a supermarket, a farmer's market, I feel a little
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: maybe even maybe even the airport, I'm a little emboldened
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: because that's another lines hovering people being awful.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Right, and the airport there's enough security around. Nobody crosses
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: a line. You know they're going to be taken care of.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, And honestly, that's actually kind of a good idea.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: I know, I kind of provoke it, kind of like
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: you can get rid of these people pretty clearly, like oh,
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: you know, and then back off all one of those
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: things sort of instigate, but then they come at you
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: and like, oh, sorry, you gotta go man like because
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: you cannot no mess around.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Their trip might be over right there. Yeah, you can
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: report them to SA immediately. I feel threatened. This person
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: said something in my ear.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's a little fake tattletale situation. Absolutely bade
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: people at the.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: Heard the word bomb come out of his mouth. I
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: don't know, but take.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: Care of him. I'm definitely gonna do that anytime somebody
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: does something to me at the airport.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Have you ever had a TSA your bag disassembled and
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: then take look through everything.
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: You know? I haven't had a while ago. It hasn't
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: been a long time, but recently, if anything, it's been
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: like they've gone through and they've I haven't really found anything.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: They've been like pulled something out and been like, oh, yeah,

  Speaker 3: People looking at you at the airport. In that situation,
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: you have to kind of explain. It's like, yeah, this
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: is another thing like if I go if I'm at
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: a restaurant and I go to the bathroom and it's occupied, yeah,
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: and I just need to pee, But then I'm like
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: I'm standing there for a while. The amount of explaining
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: I'm doing when I get back to the table, like, oh,
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: the way I.
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: Was standing there, the way it was, it was a
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: long wait. I didn't have to poop.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Who I should take a card of video of me
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: waiting or something.
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: That's a good idea.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just be like if you're all wondering.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah you could. You could almost like, well I
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: was gonna say, live live, go.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: To twitch, go to twitch my twitch channel.
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and then invite your friends at the table to
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: go on your Twitch channel.
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: So queens are watching me.
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it could be a whole channel called bridger Waiting
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: for a public bathroom to open up.
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: Truly only needed to be.
• 14:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, truly only needed to be.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: But that happens almost any time at a restaurant because
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: usually it's a one person thing.
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: Now, how do you feel about there's a there's a
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: men's and women's and it's you know, it still says
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: men's and women right right, and there's you're waiting. Say,
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: you're waiting for the men's and the women's opens up,
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: no line.
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: Oh and there's nobody else that needs them.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you're waiting for the men's. You've been waiting forever.
• 14:57
  Speaker 4: This person you can, you amos, You could almost getarantee
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: it's somebody that works at the restaurant just taking a
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: little break, right, right, you know what I mean. They're
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: sitting in there for a long time, and the doors.
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: I mean, of course you're going to go for.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: It, right, it's just absolutely always there.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: Yes, And I think it's totally I think it's totally fine.
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: But what happens is you come out there's a woman
• 15:15
  Speaker 4: waiting there and she's like.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: I've always prepared in my mind. You say, get over it,
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: don't take it so seriously, come on, this is all
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: made up.
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Get over your This is all bullshit. This is just
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: an idea, This is a suggestion. Maybe split it up
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: based on whatever.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: Yes, come on, it was two minutes.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah. It drives me nuts when I get a look
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: after coming out of the women's bathroom, and they should
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: all be just genderless.
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't need to sign on events anymore.
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: It's just one or the other two up.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: On the bathrooms. Yeah, especially, I mean the one thing
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: I'll say is the women's bathroom, the line does tend
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: to pile up more, that's true, And so I'm like,
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: am I getting in the way?
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: But sometimes you need it, and sometimes you're worried your
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: friends think you are suddenly having the worst night of
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: your life.
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, I was thinking maybe anything you could do
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: to prepare for that moment, like have a little card,
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: like like you know, a little card that's like pre
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: written plastic, right, something that says like, I'm using this
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: bathroom because there was no line, and I don't want
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: my friends to think I'm taking a huge poop and
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: having the worst time in my life. I'm just peeing.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: I'll be right out.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: Please find it in your heart.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Don't look at me weird when I come out. Everything's
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: totally normal.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Everything I'm doing in here is legal.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: Yes, I think, yeah on the doorknob. And then somebody
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: will go, oh okay. You know they're not going to
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: be like what the hell.
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: And while you're in there, maybe you call a friend
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: from the table to just let them know that you're peeing.
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, have them come and check on you. Have
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: them talk to the person outside the door, if.
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: You wouldn't mind telling everybody in the restaurant that things
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: are fine.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: They are fine.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: I am peeing. It's a long pee, So speculating about
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: what I'm doing in here. Why does everyone care so
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: much about what I'm doing in the bathroom.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but they do. I've heard people talk
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: about caring about what you do in the back.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Very loudly, specifically industry rumors. Oh yeah, the industry is
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: a buzz.
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, what is he doing in there? What
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: is he doing over so long?
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: If there's somebody in the bathroom, come back to the
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: table and go back.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's ridiculous. Its ridiculous. Yeah, I you know, I'm yeah,
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I have that quite as much.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: I think I'm okay with like sitting in there.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: I've just stood being okay with the weight.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm okay. Like if people come back and they're like,
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: that's ook a while, I'm like, something's wrong with you. Okay,
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: there's nothing wrong with me. There's something wrong with your
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: brain and the fact that you decided to bring this
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: up in front of all of our friends. I was
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: actually in a situation like that one really where it
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: was shooting a movie and there are people whose names
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: I don't want to shoot it out there, but but somebody,
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: somebody very funny, Okay. A woman went to the bathroom.
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: She was there for a while, and then another woman
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: that doesn't matter, It doesn't matter. Two women, two women.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: One goes to the bathroom. She's funny, the other one
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: isn't funny. And she's there and she's going, oh my god,
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: what are they doing in there? And the funny one
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: comes back and she would and the non funny one.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: Two women, and she goes in front of everybody, Oh
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: my god, that took so long. What were you doing
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: wo And the funny woman goes, I was taking a
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: big fat ship and then just like totally was totally
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: comfortable with it, you know, diffuse the situation and good
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: for her. Yeah, yeah, that's how I feel. That's how
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: I feel. I'm like, I'm taking a big fat ship.
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: I'm just like, I don't need the little thing to
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: put on the door.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Wow, that's confidence you need to get to that.
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: Lit's you know, it's it's not the best kind of confidence.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: I would definitely rather have other kinds of confidence, but
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: I'll take it. I'll take what I can get.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: And I think, actually, I'm going to defend myself a
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: little bit here. It's a little bit also of I
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: don't want everyone the table having to think about poop
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: while the reader.
• 19:02
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's considered. So you're considering a little more considerate
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: than embarrassed.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: Yes, I'm like, I don't want them sick to their stomachs,
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: gagging down each bite waiting for me.
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: Right, yeah, so look, yeah, that's that's what you're on
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: the right side. And for me, I'm kind of like,
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: you don't give a ship. I'm like, let me put
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: it in your head. If it's right there at the edge,
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna I'm gonna push it all the way in.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: I'm just gonna how dare you? Or I'll describe my
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: ship in detail. Right when you're taking your first bite
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: of your beef stroging off, you picked the wrong meal,
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: the wrong meal today, buster.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: And yet you still haven't mend to Costco.
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: That's really yeah, not as a member with other people.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: As a member, still haven't gone in yet.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: It's a weird experience. As a non member, I always
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: feel like, what should I be doing?
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't. I don't know the way in, really
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: I don't, because I feel like there are certain things
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: like we got like a big thing of macaroni and
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: cheese son, which I would imagine is like the smallest
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: thing you can get right and and I'm like, I
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: see this thing in our pantry and it's like, I
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: don't know, it's like forty things.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Not going to eat all of that, and it's.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: All the same type. I like to go to the
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: grocery store and maybe try a different waxed up, try
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: a different brand, try a different noodle, different cheese, sauce.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: Of course, you know, it's another thing where I think
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: they think bar kind of encompasses it, where that's small
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: enough that you can kind of just get used to
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: it being I don't care for this flavor, but who cares? Yes,
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: but a meal of artificial.
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: Official cheese and noodles.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: You Yeah, Oh, it's upsetting.
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: It's really upsetting, really upsetting. Yeah, I'm not I'm not
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: quite there yet with Costco. You'll get there at some point,
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: maybe when I'm having more parties, birthday parties for my son.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: You know, but did you how did your Costco card
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: photo turnout? Mine? Not a good situation.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, I don't even know. I don't even
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: know if I feel like I don't even know if
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: I have it.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, I'm never going to get back into this place.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: I in my in my memory I took a photo
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: and it was like a temporary thing.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: They oh, yeah, like a paper license idea.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: It was yeah, or like I was going to pick
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: it up later or something. I don't know, maybe because
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: I was so.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: You're never getting back I'm.
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: Never getting back in there.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: Let me. I'm actually going to show you my Costco
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: card because I think it's worth seeing the image they
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: picked for me.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: I would love to and I'm going to look at
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: my wallet to see if I happen to have one.
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: But look at uh this, Oh my god.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: There's not a single distinguishable feature on this What I
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: look like a ghost? That is it's like a white silhouette,
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: almost not there. It's like you only have the features
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: that could be anybody. Tip of the nose, mouth that
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: is wild.
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah did you get that in the moment? Were you like, oh,
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: thank you?
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: Yes? This was Yeah. I looked at it. I was like,
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: I think it was right before closing, so I couldn't
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: demand a reshoot.
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you weren't like, can we play with the lighting here?
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: This is a little harsh, but.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you see nostrils and eyes. That's all so Costco?
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: Could they did you dirty?
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: I don't think that they didn't even need to take
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: a photo.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: No, they're not taking serious when it's washing it out.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Like ooh, get some nice lighting on me.
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: There's no way.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: No, oh oh, have you got it?
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, let's see this. A little washed out too.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, a little washed out. But you look deeply unhappy.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: They very unhappy. I've already told stories of being unhappy
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: at Costco getting my my license my and then what else?
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: What was the other one with the farmer's market. Yeah,
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: I'm just I'm going nuts crazy. I'm going crazy over
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: I'm fully well.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: I feel like I should redirect the conversation until you
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: get before you get in some sort of trouble.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: Okay, sure, yeah, yeah, redirect.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: I mean this could just lead to more problems on
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: the podcast. And but I don't know where to go
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: from here.
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, problems are fund you know, it's it's marketable,
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: it's viral.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: It's conflict. Their sparks, sparks fly. People love to see these.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: It's essentially one of these debates. Yeah, and so we'll
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: see what happens, see what happens. I was excited to
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: have you here on the podcast today. I thought, certainly
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: Beck has manners he's been in the industry for a minute,
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: knows how these things work. Absolutely has some sort of decency.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: The podcast is called I said no gifts, and I
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: imagine you received the famous phone call phone calls. We
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: have an Allie's kind of call and leave messages, just
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: making sure sending letters emails with the name of the podcast.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: So I was a little surprised. I was a little
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: floored when you walked into the studio today holding an
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: absolutely gorgeous gift.
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: You You're so welcome, Thank you so much. I appreciate you. Yeah, well,
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: you know, I I, of course I wasn't going to
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: bring a gift because that was the name of the show,
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: and I know I don't want the gifts, but I
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: just I really couldn't help myself because I was I
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: just I was like, maybe this is the gift that
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: changes the podcast, maybe changes the name of the podcast,
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: changes your attitude, you know. And and so I brought
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: a gift. I'm not somebody. I'm usually somebody to be like,
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: we don't need to bring a gift, Like somebody's having
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: you over for dinner and like, oh you got to
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: bring some wine or something. It's like like a kid's
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: birthday party. They don't want another thing.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: Birthday is not happening.
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: As a parent of a child. Too many gifts.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: It's just if the child's related to me.
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah sure.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: Otherwise, how many kids birthdays am I going to?
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: I don't know, I mean only you know, I could
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: see a lot.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: I'm a magician. I'm a magician.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: Well but yeah, I brought a gift. You know.
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: It kind of comes down to a lack of control.
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I am out of control, as we've found out
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: from the first start of this pod.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Yes, right, so should we open it here on the podcast?
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: I would love to. I cannot wait.
• 25:08

• 25:26
  Speaker 4: a bottle of champagne, you know. Now it's in my
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: my gift wrap.
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: And it's got kind of a gold tissue.
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, some brown and a little gold or yeah, look
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: at that that's been used before.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: That one was fresh, but this one was fresh.

  Speaker 4: Got it? But so the crinkle is fresh. That other
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: one was was already used. Yeah, look at that. That's
• 25:49

• 26:16
  Speaker 4: Okay, Well, you can use it for anything. You could. Honestly,
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: I immediately think of this gift, and you could use it
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: for the same purpose. Probably you could leave it in
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: the bathroom and use the scoop out the toilet.
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're pointing to if the listeners want now seeing this,
• 26:29

• 26:32
  Speaker 3: Rob Hubel at one point, which is a gun or
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: a toilet plunger shaped like a gun.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like a big old shotgun that Beck was.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: Kind of threatening to use before the episode.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, I was gonna.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, destroy the studio bathroom.
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: And then use the shotgun plunger. But I didn't do
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: that yet. It's tempting. It's there, but this is this
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: is a wooden uh walk spoon, right, created by Kenji J.
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: Lopez Alt.
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: Do you know who he is.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: He's a chef. He's like an internet chef personality or guy.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: He's created two James Beard Award winning cookbooks. One's called
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: The Food Lab. I may have seen it. It's like
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: a big It's like an encyclopedia book of cooking, like
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: basically all the principles that one could.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: Want to just lay it all out, Yeah.
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: Like chopping, so like vegetables, meat, like every different major
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: category of sharing food. I mean, there's some specific recipes,
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: but it's all the basics. And then this other book
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: he came out with is called It's basically about only
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: recipes to be cooked.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: With a Walk And do you have both of these books?
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: I have both of these books, and I follow him
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: online and anytime I'm going to cook something, I will
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: look up the thing I want to cook and his name,
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: and so The Food Lab his book. What he kind
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: of became famous for is it breaks down everything to
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: the science of the cooking, so you can under stand.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: He'll be like, this is what's happening with the oil
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: and how it's interacting with this pan or this meat,
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: or this is why you let it sit or this
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: is He'll do experiments like salting a piece of meat,
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: like sure, ten minutes before, thirty minutes before a day before,
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: like I'm seeing how it like breaks things down, and
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: so you like you really it becomes a sort of
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: like science experiment. Like I've only gotten a little bit
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: into he has so many things online, but like it
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: has been it's I love him and he's The way
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: he talks about food is just so interesting and exciting,
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: and it's like the stuff he makes. So this he
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: made he made this specific spoon because it's like the
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: perfect shape or cooking.
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: You kind of invented this spoon.
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because a lot of spoons are more like rounded
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: and so this this is basically go right down. Yeah.
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: Can I see this?
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: And it's mine. It's right handed.
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is so be careful.
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: I do I do want it. I would like to
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: take it back. This Also it's like where the bowl
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: is rounded, like it gets a lot of surface area,
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: like it's perfect. Oh right, But it's also I find
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: it to be just a good cooking utensil. And it
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: is large.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Are you using it to like with regular pans?
• 29:17
  Speaker 4: Yes? Yeah, And I'm doing like some some fried rice
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: with this. I just got my own. So and I
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: got my own and I thought of you, so were you?
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: Did he get you into cooking?
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: Or I was already into cooking? But he was really
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: like he he really helped just make it all accessible,
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: because you know, your typical cookbook. I mean like there
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: was the an Alison Roman phase and then she kind of,
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: you know, fell apart completely emotionally.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: The career got the career, got this gonna come back.
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: I mean, she's got her own thing going, I think,
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: and she's fine, but she's not the household name anymore.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: And we wish her luck do we wish.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: Her all the best here? But it was it was
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: like people like the two of them, like making things
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: accessible and like breaking down like fun, interesting sort of
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: complex things and just breaking them down in easy ways.
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: So what sort of stuff have you made from him?
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: What does he tell you to make?
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: I have made a let's see, a reverse seared tender loin.
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: I got to make every Christmas.
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: Oh what does that even mean? Reverse seared?
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: It means that you put it in the oven first
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: at about two hundred and twenty degrees for about depending
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: on the size of the piece of meat, like two hours,
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: and you get it to a certain temperature and then
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: you take it out and then you you what's it called?
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: You see it afterwards in like butter and rosemary and stuff,
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: and the slow cooking it at first it to get
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: to be the perfect perfect temperature from edge tadj So
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: it's like if you want medium rare, it's perfectly medium
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: rare all the way through, as opposed to just in
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: the middle and sort of well done on the outside.
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: It's sort of like a what is that when you
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: put when you put when you put something in a
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: single water souv.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's kind of like it's just like suviede without
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: the suvide machine.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't need a big tangish. Yeah, I've never
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: done that. But the idea of putting the meat in
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: a bag and then putting it in some water, and.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: It's very odd odd.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: It's just kind of doesn't really feel like the cooking
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: that I you know, right.
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: Like there's not like the it's not like you want
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: some level of tactile or like, yeah, just a thing
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: floating around in water. Slowly getting hot is kind of gross. Yeah,
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: it's no, I mean outside of like a noodle.
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, noodles.
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: Fine, that's for noodles.
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: That's for noodles, not meat. I don't want my meat
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: floating around in water kind.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Of swimming through a hot slow cooker essentially.
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah. No, I've also done some very nice oven like
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: crispy potatoes. You know, you kind of gotta like get
• 32:08
  Speaker 4: it into a little bath of baking soda and a
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: lot of salt when you boil it to I don't know,
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: he breaks his headten it to extract all the moisture
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: so that one you put him in the oven, they're
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: like really crunching right right.
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of chrispy potatoes. People don't cook the
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: potato long enough and then it's like crispy or you.
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: Go like you try to chart too much and then
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: it's all dried.
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: Out, disgusting.
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: It's disgusting. You have to we have to figure out.
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: We have to make it normal. We all have to
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: learn how to do it.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: Enough is enough?
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: Enough is enough. He also got me really into uh
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: like a what you might call it like a BLT,
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: just like talking about how to.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: Do was he doing new with the BLT.
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: He's just talking about He's talking about the bread that
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: toasts best bread. It's like a potato Okay, I love
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: a potato potato bread. And then like the type of
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: bacon or like, you know, make your own mayonnaise tomorrow
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: is like, yeah, that's a little too, but it's because
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: I've done it, and it's I don't know if it's
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: worth it. QP mayonnaise is fantastic, right, That's that's the
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: little the cornerstone.
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: Some things you just find a good one.
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: And you don't need to make it yourself, right.
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: Belt you can. I mean every one of those things
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: can go wrong in a big way. Bad tomato, uncooked bacon.
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: Uh huh yeah, I couldn't agree.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: More crummy bread, yeah, I will say with BLT, I've
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: kind of gotten to a point where it doesn't feel
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: like a full sandwich to me. I feel like I
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: need a club. You have bacon and.
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: Turkey, and you need some turkey in there.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: I need some or avocado in there. You have to
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: there has to be a second thing that's substantial.
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: I understand that, But what about just having to Blt's
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: and just like going back, going back to well, it's not.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: It feels like an incomplete sandwich.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I understand.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: And I feel like if you put enough bacon in
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: it to be complete, then it becomes a health concern.
• 34:08
  Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, And then you're like, this is not a
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: light summer sandwich that this is.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: Now some thing's gone wrong in my life. I'm going
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: through something difficult.
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: See I hear that. But I feel like the turkey
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: just messes with about the crunch, salt balance, creaminess thing
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: that's happening. Let me ask you this, have you do
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: you ever? Do you ever have a tomato toast?
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: I've never had a tomato toast.
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: Okay, so all the listeners, tomato toast is something very simple,
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: but it's incredible. So you just take a piece of
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: really any bread. But I would say sour dough. This
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: is kind of my saying, like I would say my
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: light lunch of the summer. Okay, this is okay, this
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: is summertime.
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: Tomatoes, summer.
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you put some you could even you could.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: I'll even do a platter, okay, big platter, tomatoes, bacon,
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: some lettuce, some cheese, some excuse me, a little indigestion here,
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: something was coming up. But nothing popped that for a clip.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: Cut it out.
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: That's going on there, that's gonna be viral, and so
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: I'll put it all out on a board. But so
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: the tomato toast is like a toasted piece of sour dough.
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: So something's a little crunchy, it's spongy. And you take
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: some some mayonnaise, hopefully Qpy mayonnaise, a little lemon, salt
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: and pepper, and just whip that all up together and
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: then put that on the bread and some tomatoes with
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: some salt and pepper. You need the salt and pepper
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: on the tomato to bring out the flavor. Otherwise you're
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: just you're absolutely blowing and you're totally fucked.
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: Why did you bother?
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, why did you bother? You might as well not
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: have the tomato la And it's that it's simple and
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: you put it on there and the mayonnaise combination, you know,
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: with a little lemon salt. Incredible, It's incredible. It's honestly,
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: it's honestly better than a belt.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, And like like to go back to Kenji,
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: he'll do something like here's a tomatoes sandwich, two pieces
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: of I don't know exactly what it's called but it's
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: like Japanese milk toast.
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: I think, yes, delicious bread.
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: And he's like, he'll do something where he like takes
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: the two of them sawtaise, the two pieces right, takes
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: the sautee side, puts some mayonnaise and tomato and puts
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: them on the inside. So the outside is fluffy, but
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: the inside you have a seared buttery crunch that goes
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: along with the tomato. And it's like, so simple, right,
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: he does these. He does a lot of things that
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: are just very simple, but like, my so good.
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: It feels like it's just reversing a lot of things.
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: Yeahs stuff around, things around.
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah. So that's why, you know. And I didn't want
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: to bring you the cookbook as well because I didn't
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: want it to look like product placement. I wanted to
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: be natural. I wanted to set you on your journey
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: and wherever it can go. You know. I didn't want
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: to like, I didn't want you to have the pressure
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: of like, oh now I have to cook all these
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: the worst. You don't want to give somebody a job.
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: As a gift, no, no, no, no no no no.
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: So that could be displayed, that can be used in
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: any fashion you want.
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: But you I mean last night I needed a I
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: mean a baked a pie and I didn't. I kind
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: of revealed myself as someone who didn't have a pie.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: What is this thing? The piper? A pie serving tool?
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah? Is it the same for cake? Because I have
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: one and.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: We got the same for cake. It's kind of a
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: triangle to get in the slice.
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: There a pie server.
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: And I learned my lesson in the worst way.
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: What did you have? Did you have like a just
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: a big just a chopping You.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Want to know what I used as a cheese slicer,
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: You know the thing that's like, what are you talking about?
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: A handheld cheese slicer. That's that kind of a big
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: spoon humiliate.
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: With the little shamy device on it. When you said
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: a cheese slicer, I thought of the old school like
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: piece of marble with the wire thing on the hinge.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: Was like, what were you doing you your hand?
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: That seems so problematic, so challenging.
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: No, I don't know. I guess that cheese slicer has
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: its place, But no serving pie.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: No, No, it's too rounded.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: It's like it's half the size of a slice of pie. Yeah, yeah,
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: so now you're just I should have just use my hand.
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I would use a chef's chef's knife.
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: Chef's Oh that's very stylish and it's very kind of
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: edgy and dangerous.
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and it may not bend as well get into
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: the pan as well, right.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: But at least it's covering the whole bottom thing.
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: What kind of pie was it?
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: It was a smore pie.
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: About once a year around this time, I start thinking,
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: I need a s'more, but I'm not going to build a.
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: Fire, and it's not it's not right.
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: So I made this small pie that was delicious, but
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: it was a reminder that like amore is about two
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: by two of those ingredients, and a small pie is
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: like a half pound of chocolate, a lot you're eating.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: So by the time you're done with it, you're like, oh,
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: I've done something wrong.
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: Well, the whole pie, Yeah, I done something wrong. Is
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: a natural feeling.
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: I should reveal that I was alone.
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: I was alone.
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: I was crying the whole time, and.
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: Well that sounds about right, that sounds like the right.
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: Just one small slice was oh what's this? But it
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: was it was delicious. I made him meringue for the
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: first time, also realized, oh I don't own a blow torch,
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: which is a nice kitchen thing to have.
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: I have a blow torch.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: That's you know, you don't use it often, but when
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: it comes time i've never used it, you're going to
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: and when you do, you're going to be like, thank
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: god I have this around.
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: Thank god I have this torch.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: Because last night I had to use I had to
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: broil in the oven. That's dangerous and the dish was glass.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: The fear I had because as a kid, we had
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: a we had a glass thing left on the stovetop
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: and an explode in the kitchen. It felt like a
• 39:37
  Speaker 3: pipe Bombit blown.
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's so dangerous and glass everywhere. So it was
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: sitting on a burner and it was it was heating on.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: My mom really screwed up that day.
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: My mom really fucking blew it. What was your mom thinking?
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: She just put it on.
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: A burner like he was a mess?
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: What's wrong with your mother?
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: It's time that somebody says the truth about dead. Yeah,
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: she was a disaster as a parent.
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: Thank god somebody finally said.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: Putting your children in danger every morning?
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: Wild, But it was genuinely it was like a traumatic
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: experience with glass blowing up. So last night I put
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: this thing in the broiler, absolute panic the entire time,
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: but then a perfectly toasted marat that's amazing.
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: I mean the broiler, you leave it in there thirty
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: seconds too long, and you're dumb.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: You cannot take your eye off of it.
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: You cannot any so you can look through you can
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: you look looking.
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: Through the oven, which is I closed the oven and
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: so we're looking through the glass with the which is
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: not an efficient. Why has the oven industry not figured
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: out how to make that glass perfect to look through?
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: Clear?
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: Why? Yeah? Why does it? I know, I don't know
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: what privacy are we protecting.
• 40:42
  Speaker 4: I mean I don't even I don't even have a
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: window because I moved into a house that had a
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: fancy stove. Oh no fancy.
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: You have no way of looking into the no way.
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: Of knowing what temperature the oven. I have to get
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: a little thing to hang. This is like a fancy
• 40:56
  Speaker 4: French stove. I don't want this. This is nobody. Like
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: the burners are on the stove are so hot. If
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: you leave the pan on for too long without the
• 41:08
  Speaker 4: proper oil or whatever, it's like it's torched. Oh it's
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: such a delicate thing. It's like I'm like Julia Child's
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: yeah yeah, and it's like, oh, look how rustic and
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: cool it is.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: That was my first oven in La you know. I
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: was like, I'm putting this thing in the oven. I
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: have no idea what the temperature.
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: Is, and I can't see it.
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: Good luck to everybody.
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no way, I'm We moved into this house two
• 41:32
  Speaker 4: years ago and it was like wow, cool and I
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: had I've had to get just tuned into it, you know,
• 41:39
  Speaker 4: to know it. And now that I know it, I'm
• 41:41
  Speaker 4: ready to let it go.
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: It's going to tear your family apart.
• 41:44
  Speaker 4: It might it really might life ruin it. Yeah.
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: I need to be able to at least get a peak.
• 41:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I needed a peak. Just give me. I just
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: want to know, you know, especially you want to know
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: if something's in there. Yeah, especially we get Yeah, this
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: oven is below the ways.
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: Oh it's absolutely it's accessible to children.
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: My child could come by. He can't get a peek.
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: He doesn't know that something's in there. He's going to
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: open that thing, but yeah, he's gonna climb right in
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: and he doesn't know it's four hundred degrees in there.
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: He's toast. Literally, it's it's a safety concern, it's a
• 42:16
  Speaker 4: real hazard. Wow.
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: That really for me. First thing, first appliance, I'd get
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: rid of. You're gonna get rid of that thing. At
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: some point, you're gonna say enough, exactly what I was thinking.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: Who do you think you are?
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: Beck?
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, get the oven that you can see that you're
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: not Ken J Lopez No, no, no, no, no no. I
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: think J Lopez alt would he wouldn't want this. No,
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: if he'll get in touch with you, can you reach out?
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: Can you reach out? I'm giving your spoons away on podcasts.
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: Little a little support would be nice.
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: Just let Beck know that it's okay to have glass
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: to see in for the baked products.
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: Thank you, Kenjy, Thank you, Kenjy, thank you Kenji.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but ultimately I had to close the thing because
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: I was afraid of having glass blown into my face.
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: And it all worked out.
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: It all worked out, and you it all worked out.
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: You ate the pie crying by yourself and got a
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: stomach egg and everything was perfect. I like that you
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: cooked a s'mores pie. I've never cooked. I've only made
• 43:19
  Speaker 4: a strawberry rubar pie. Which my family did growing up
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: because my grandma would make it right. And I love
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: a fruit pie, but I mean more than a fruit pie.
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: I love like a French silk.
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, I love a chocolate poe.
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: Have you never heard of this? You see him at
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: you see him at the stores. I've never I've never
• 43:38
  Speaker 4: heard of anybody. I've never heard the of the idea
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: of somebody making one of these at home. Nobody. I
• 43:43
  Speaker 4: feel like they can't be homemade, but you see them
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: at bakeries, certain restaurants. They'll they'll have a Snicker's pie.
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: It'll be like a chocolate with caramel and peanuts.
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, some nugae. I don't know. I don't.
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a lot of ingredients you're making. I need to, like,
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: I need to make one pie filling. Yeah, essentially, absolutely.
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: Then I can maybe make a topping, the meringue.
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: I could maybe do a peanut butter thing. I think
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: a salty, Oh, sort of whipped cream top.
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: Oh salty.
• 44:10
  Speaker 4: My mom my mom used to make ice cream pies
• 44:13
  Speaker 4: for our birthday. Oh with an oreo crust. Delicious, incredible.
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: I love a I won't do a regular pastry crust.
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: It's too much stress for.
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: Me, it's too much stress. Is it too hard to
• 44:24
  Speaker 4: get it right?
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Like the bar is so high. The every recipe
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: is always like fifty steps, you have to have ice cubes,
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: blah blah blah.
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: I haven't done the pie crust a lot, but from
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: being around the pie maker's Thanksgiving et cetera, it always
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: the marker is the crust. I feel, of course, never
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: the filling. It's like, did we get the crust right?
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: And if you screw up the crust then you just
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: have a bland like paste.
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's floppy on the bottom. To crust is crumbling apart.
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: It's very much like a sandwich if you use bad
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: bread for a sandwich. Yeah, it's half the thing.
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: It's half the thing about the bread.
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: It's all about the bread.
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: That's a famous a restaurant, great meatball, sup. Yeah, but
• 45:07
  Speaker 4: it's not about the meatballs. It's about the bread. At
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: that place, it's all about the bread. All about the
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: bread bakes fresh daily. Yeah, it's really important. I just
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: want it's important for more people to know that too.
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: You want to make a good sandwich, get some good bread.
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: Truly. I really feel like this is something that like
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: just as a society. In the last ten to fifteen years,
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: we've realized, oh right, that ingredient needs to be good too. Yes,
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: when you're making a burrito, the tortilla should be good
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: because that's something you're still eating.
• 45:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a foundation. Yes, I mean I kind of
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: felt this way. Well. Kenji helped me with this as well,
• 45:39
  Speaker 4: and not to just talk about meat products with Kenji
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: and whatever, but like I got into burgers because I
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: wash and I make a smash burger, which is very
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: popular now. But I was way ahead of the curve
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: and I was like very I was like, what are
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: these burgers that we're eating at home, like at people's houses,
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: These hockey pucks, these dried out hockey pucks with a
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: big like half melted piece of cheddar on it. Flavorless,
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: it's flavorless, and it's just like it's like a big
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: dry meatball. I was like, this is enough, Like we
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: can do. It's not that far.
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: It's one of the most simple foods.
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: It's really easy and all you need is some good meat. Sure,
• 46:24
  Speaker 4: may I like some onions, pickles, a sauce, some sort
• 46:28
  Speaker 4: of salt, some sort of salt. I think for me,
• 46:31
  Speaker 4: a melty American cheese doesn't have to be a craft single,
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: but they have sure all different variations now, and a
• 46:36
  Speaker 4: Martin's potato roll delicious, and it's just the good, simple ingredients.
• 46:41
  Speaker 4: And people have come over to my house and had
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: these burgers, been like, oh my god, how did you
• 46:46
  Speaker 4: do this?
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: Did it take you a minute to figure out how
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: to make them properly? Did you have to buy an
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: iron dispatch?
• 46:51
  Speaker 4: I got the iron, I got the right spatula and everything,
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: the right tools. Yeah, you need the right tools, yes,
• 46:58
  Speaker 4: but you know, I think that's one of the things
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: that got me into cooking, was like, you can make
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: like these nostalgic amaze, whether it's a grilled cheese, cheeseburger,
• 47:07
  Speaker 4: like just a good salad, like some good vegetable, like
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: a good just roasted chicken, these basic things, and you
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: can make at home very simply and have it tastes
• 47:17
  Speaker 4: better than anything you've ever happened. Right. I was like,
• 47:20
  Speaker 4: we need to know how to do these things.
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: And yet I've never cooked a single thing in my home.
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: Really.
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: I scrambled eggs, I bake, you bake, but I really don't.
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: I guess during the pandemic, I made meatballs a few.
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: This is going to change rice. I'm making pad tie.
• 47:35
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, I'm gonna be all over the place. You're going
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: to be scooping it all around. I mean, yeah, that's
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: They're going to find a lot of a lot of
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: good uses for that big old spin. Ye it's a
• 47:44
  Speaker 4: right hand just so you know, they come left end right.
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: Oh interesting, Oh, because yeah, I guess the curve of
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: this thing requires. I mean, a left handed person would
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: be absolutely right that what you're doing there.
• 47:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it's very cute.
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: It's almost like it's like a kind of car tune
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: paint brush or something.
• 48:01
  Speaker 4: And you know, and there's actually something else in the back. Oh,
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: there is just a little bit, just a little bit
• 48:07
  Speaker 4: of something that is some oil. Yeah, I don't know
• 48:10
  Speaker 4: that I've ever heard of it. I didn't want to
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: leave you with that. And and now I'm giving you
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: a job, which is what And I thought about that
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: when I was putting it in here. I was like, no,
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: I'm giving them a whole job.
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: And I did that changing a lifestyle.
• 48:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you don't have to use the oil, but
• 48:24
  Speaker 4: if you use the spoon, you might want to put
• 48:26
  Speaker 4: some oil on it and rub it the spoon for the.
• 48:29
  Speaker 3: Spoon before you even use it the first time.
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: You don't know, No, you can. You can use this
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: for a while. Okay, you know you don't want to
• 48:35
  Speaker 4: put it in the dishwasher. You don't want to soak
• 48:37
  Speaker 4: in water. This the wooden spoon, right of course. But
• 48:40
  Speaker 4: when it starts to drow it a little bit, you
• 48:42
  Speaker 4: take the scratchy side of your little uh, your little
• 48:45
  Speaker 4: sponge there and you, uh, you rub some of that
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: in there.
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: And how do I wash this properly? Just with a
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: little bit of light soap and water. Absolutely, yeah, just
• 48:53
  Speaker 3: put this in the dishwasher. No, Bridger, No, you would
• 48:56
  Speaker 3: put wood in the dishwasher. Put whatever I want the dishware.
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: You'll ruin your woods.
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: My wedding dress in the dishwak.
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: Well, that of course, that actually does work.
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: That's a little secret people don't know about I do.
• 49:09
  Speaker 4: I do all my dresses in the in the dishwasher,
• 49:12
  Speaker 4: not my not my shorts and shirts.
• 49:13
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, that would be ridiculous. But you
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: drag a big dress out of the dishwasher, hot and wet.
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: It's perfect, It fits perfectly.
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I've never cleaned something or used wood oil
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: on anything.
• 49:28
  Speaker 4: And I don't expect you to.
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: This is a gift.
• 49:30
  Speaker 4: This I'm giving you this being like he'll never use it.
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: But I couldn't responsibly give you this beautifully crafted wooden
• 49:36
  Speaker 4: spoon without the proper right.
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: I mean, maybe I throw some of this on a
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: lather up and lay out in the backyard.
• 49:42
  Speaker 4: That's kind of what I was thinking a little bit.
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: I feel like my body, my skin could take that.
• 49:47
  Speaker 4: Like it works for the wood, why not? Why not
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: bridge it?
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: This is in the same territory as a What is
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: the other thing that's like a nightmare? You have to
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: season u iron?
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: Yes, a cast iron, cast iron. I have a cast
• 50:03
  Speaker 4: iron pan and it's it is very frustrating. I kind
• 50:08
  Speaker 4: of I kind of hate it. There are a lot
• 50:09
  Speaker 4: of recipes that are like you need a cast iron
• 50:11
  Speaker 4: for this.
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: Right, and it is in pet territory where it's like
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: you have to take care.
• 50:16
  Speaker 4: Of it, yes, and it can it can rust and.
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: H and you have to season it. What does that
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: even mean?
• 50:21
  Speaker 4: I don't I don't really know. It's misleading because I
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: thought when I was given my first cast iron pan,
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: they were like, you have to season it and like
• 50:29
  Speaker 4: and you also don't want to wash it because I
• 50:32
  Speaker 4: thought like seasoning it was like keeping the flavors in
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: it from the previous meals. You know, that's what it
• 50:37
  Speaker 4: seasons it, It flavors it or something. But I don't
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: think that's what it is. Isn't like you're like, you're
• 50:43
  Speaker 4: just creating a coating. So it's like oil, oh oil
• 50:48
  Speaker 4: that you're like kind of honestly, that's not a good explanation,
• 50:52
  Speaker 4: but it's like after you clean it, you're supposed to
• 50:55
  Speaker 4: put some oil in it and then put it in
• 50:57
  Speaker 4: the oven and it like bakes into it think and
• 51:00
  Speaker 4: like like fills in the pores or I don't really believe.
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: It any I'm not doing that at my house now.
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: I have just straight up what are they called metal pants,
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: the basic ones. All Clad is the brand, and it's
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: it's not easy, but it's it's not as challenging as
• 51:22
  Speaker 4: cast iron. And it's also, uh, it doesn't have the
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: anxiety of the the what you might call it the scratch,
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: the which did.
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: The scorcher rings?
• 51:34
  Speaker 4: NONI you never know what though, because you put one
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: of those in the oven above four hundred degrees, you
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: don't know what kind of chemicals you release.
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: I don't, right, it's a very like potential cancer issue, right.
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it is, but it's like that's something. It's like
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: you see that, you read about it online, and I'm like,
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: is it real?
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: Then I ignore ignoring.
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: I think, well, we're doing fine cancer all the things.
• 51:56
  Speaker 4: There's everything gives you cancer, and but also so many
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: more things used to give you cancer.
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: I think, oh, yeah, cut out some of those fumes.
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: At the factories we're putting out in the streets, you know,
• 52:06
  Speaker 4: and what the factories we're putting in the water, right,
• 52:10
  Speaker 4: all that stuff.
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: And maybe non sick pans are my smoking Yeah, it's
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: my dirty little habits.
• 52:15
  Speaker 4: And that's nothing compared to smoker.
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's mommy's trees something.
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: Are nonstick. I'm so I'm just gonna burn that on
• 52:26
  Speaker 4: the stove and just smell it up.
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm very excited about potentially using the oil at
• 52:34
  Speaker 3: some point and then using the woodspoon for something.
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: For something. Who knows, Well, it's it's a I love.
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: A fried rice. Maybe it's time I tried it.
• 52:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so.
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: I love because good fried rice. The gap between good
• 52:47
  Speaker 3: and bad fried rice is massive. There really is if
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: you get a good one, unlike anything what you put
• 52:54
  Speaker 3: in yours leftovers.
• 52:57
  Speaker 4: It's like, honestly, my fried rice is like rappy, not
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: to be served to guests. It's often for my son,
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: for me, my wife, just kind of leftovers some like
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: some chopped up cabbage, some what else. We got some carrots,
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: maybe some peas. I don't I don't do that. I
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: don't do the piece. I don't know. I said that
• 53:17

  Speaker 3: ahead or is it like this is what I'll make tonight?
• 54:18
  Speaker 4: A little bit of both. I try to keep it interesting,
• 54:20
  Speaker 4: do new stuff, but often it'll just be like a
• 54:22
  Speaker 4: go to like some pasta, a canned sauce or a
• 54:27
  Speaker 4: you know, jarred sauce. Sure, maybe some some turkey or
• 54:30
  Speaker 4: some spinach that I'm adding to it. Okay, okay, that
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: sort of thing.
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: Do you get complaints?
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, oh yeah no not complaints, just you know, well,

• 54:47
  Speaker 4: be kind of more like it's good. No, I mean
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: it's good. What do you want? Like, yeah, this is
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: like one of these classic things we have like once
• 54:58
  Speaker 4: a week, and like, but.
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: Do you have a big winner that you can count on?
• 55:03
  Speaker 4: It's really just the pasta. That's what's gonna make everybody
• 55:07
  Speaker 4: happy every single time. It's gonna be on the table
• 55:10
  Speaker 4: on time, you know, because it's not new, it's easy.
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: So yeah, the thing that will really set me off
• 55:16
  Speaker 3: and I met. I control myself, of course, but when
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: I bake something and my boyfriend says it was good,
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: you should do this with the next time.
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and it's like, well.
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: Just so you didn't like it, yeah, don't don't talk
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: to me.
• 55:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, just I know. That's something that I've had to
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: adjust as an adult. It's like, you don't need to
• 55:32
  Speaker 4: give notes to your partner, you know. You can just
• 55:35
  Speaker 4: be like amazing and like you know, they'll figure it
• 55:38
  Speaker 4: out or they won't, doesn't matter. Like it's not worth it.
• 55:41
  Speaker 4: It's not worth the note.
• 55:42
  Speaker 3: If you have your little baking idea, why don't you
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: try to Yeah.
• 55:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so that would be worse. The next days he's
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: baking the same thing. See it's a little different, you know.
• 55:52
  Speaker 4: So it's a little different. I see, it's a little
• 55:54
  Speaker 4: not a song in the bottom. Yeah, relationship of relationship.
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: I was thinking the same thing my Jesse will she
• 56:04
  Speaker 4: won't give I mean, if anything would be like less salt,
• 56:07
  Speaker 4: which I have. That was an old note which I
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: really drawn back on it'll be Oh, it was so good.
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: You don't have to use every dish in the kitchen
• 56:19
  Speaker 4: and that or or another react to be like, I'm
• 56:21
  Speaker 4: only doing half of these dishes and I'm like, okay,
• 56:25
  Speaker 4: you know what you don't have. I mean, g that's
• 56:27
  Speaker 4: a constant, you know, dishes in the household're figuring out
• 56:29
  Speaker 4: the balance and everything. I would never expect her to
• 56:33
  Speaker 4: have to do all the dishes. Sometimes I use more
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: than I want, right, And.
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: It's a horrible job.
• 56:39
  Speaker 4: It's a horrible job. And like just and you know,
• 56:41
  Speaker 4: it's not as fulfilling as making something. And I like, yes,
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: this is delicious. You fed us, but the whole the
• 56:49
  Speaker 4: criticism of use. It was great, but you didn't do
• 56:52
  Speaker 4: it right. You didn't do it how I would like
• 56:55
  Speaker 4: for you to do it, or like can you clean
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: as you go? Oh? And I'm like yeah, I cannot.
• 57:01
  Speaker 4: I'm like I'm I'm full of just survival mode.
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I let's see. I am as clean as I go.
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: And it's very satisfying. It's uh, you know, by the end,
• 57:11
  Speaker 3: everything is done and you feel like, wow, look at me.
• 57:15
  Speaker 4: I just afterwards there's food is on the table, but
• 57:18
  Speaker 4: the kitchen is fucked.
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: It's totally It's just like to me, now, I'm like, oh,
• 57:24
  Speaker 3: I'm a psychopath, am I? Soone's going to get away
• 57:26
  Speaker 3: with murder because I cover my tracks. Oh yeah, that's
• 57:29
  Speaker 3: what's now clicking for me, And.
• 57:31
  Speaker 4: What's clicking for you now is you could get away
• 57:33
  Speaker 4: with it.
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm now capable of the perfect crime just through
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: learning to bake and clean up after my Yeah.
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: That's a really good that's a nice It's kind of
• 57:43
  Speaker 4: like I'm thinking like Dexter style TV show baker or something.
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: And yeah, the cleaner upper after himself.
• 57:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's like and it's like a cherry pie
• 57:53
  Speaker 4: but it's blood and you've got the big knife and
• 57:55
  Speaker 4: you're like like eating the knife and you're like it's
• 57:58
  Speaker 4: yummy and it's blood. Is something that's a real cool show.
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: That's This is an ideas podcast first and foremost. Of course,
• 58:06
  Speaker 3: of course, you didn't see the movie Bring Her Back?
• 58:08
  Speaker 4: Did you? No? What movie is that?
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: It's a tough movie to watch?
• 58:14
  Speaker 4: Is it a new movie?
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: That's a horror movie? Bring Her Back about a woman
• 58:17
  Speaker 3: who's trying to bring her daughter back from the dead
• 58:19
  Speaker 3: using her foster children and it. Oh, it's a tough one.
• 58:24
  Speaker 4: That sounds complicated, but I.
• 58:26
  Speaker 3: Bring it up because of the putting a knife in
• 58:28
  Speaker 3: your mouth. There's a scene where you watch somebody essentially
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: eat a knife.
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: Oh no, I'm so sorry to everyone I wanted to
• 58:34
  Speaker 4: see that. That's not a good idea. Bring her back?
• 58:40
  Speaker 4: And was it bad? Was it rough? Because it was
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: not good?
• 58:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's a very good it's a very well effective movie.
• 58:45
  Speaker 4: Okay, it got you. Yeah, it's like tough in that way.
• 58:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not like a crummy horror movie. It's like artful, yeah,
• 58:52
  Speaker 3: but also potentially the most disturbing thing I've ever watched.
• 58:58
  Speaker 3: But watching somebody essentially try to consume my butcher knife is.
• 59:02
  Speaker 4: I don't need it. I don't need it. Like the
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: what's the ariaster?
• 59:08
  Speaker 3: Oh yes, it's in that category.
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: That the with the the one, the one where you
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: know the the guys are yes. Yeah, yeah, so I
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: was being very articulate. They're all the jump on off
• 59:26
  Speaker 4: the cliff, the head smash.
• 59:27
  Speaker 3: The head smashing like a watermelon.
• 59:29
  Speaker 4: Oh my god. Then it's still there, it's still fresh
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: in my my eyes.
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, they almost It's almost like a fair style
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: where you hit the bell, the thing to shoot up
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: to the bell, but instead we're hitting someone's head on
• 59:42
  Speaker 3: a rock.
• 59:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah. That movie. I could just feel the they can
• 59:45
  Speaker 4: just feel the flies buzzing around the carcasses that.
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: They're Yeah, I mean, I mean speaking of the first
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: one was Hereditary, where the head can hang off, stick
• 59:56
  Speaker 3: your head out the window.
• 59:57
  Speaker 4: Pop right off. What the hell?
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: And that's like in the first fifteen minutes, and then
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: you just have to live with that feeling.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 4: You see. I'm more of a I love a like
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 4: a get Out Oh sure, of course it doesn't love
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 4: a get Out classic. And then like Drag Me to Hell.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 3: Oh, I love dragging in the woods.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 4: Fun.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: Drag Me to Hell has a tough, I believe stapler scene.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, somebody put in like in the head. It's
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 4: like funny, it's the it's the witch lady, right, yes,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: and she's she's in her car or something, and.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 3: She's a mad hag.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 4: She's a mad hag putting curses on people, blood shooting
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 4: out of her nose or whatever it happens.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: She's like, it's mad that somebody like doesn't buy something
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: from her.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 4: Didn't get alone, she didn't get at the bank.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: The girls wanted to open her small business.
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I just wanted to open a little business.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 4: And our protagonist is like, no, I guess she no.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 4: I think her bosses like, just tell her no. If
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 4: you want to keep your job, you tough en up.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 4: And she has to tell this side.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 3: Of small business owners. Ultimately, that's what.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 4: It really is. Yeah, and that's why it works because
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 4: it's about something. Yes, that's just it about. Yeah, what's it?
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 4: What's it about?
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 3: It's about opening a small business. Yeah, about getting a
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 3: small business.
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 4: Loan exactly, and if not, what it actually feels like
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 4: to try to get one of them?
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: Yes? Yeah, And ultimately you kind of have to drag
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 3: someone to hell and become something you didn't feel like doing.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, a little demon, a little demon, a little yeah.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 3: Well, I feel like we should play a game. Great,

• 1:02:50
  Speaker 4: my own podcast before. I don't know the rules. Maybe
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 4: I'm breaking all of them. But it's a podcast where
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 4: we don't know what our podcast is about, and we
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 4: have guests on to recommend something and then we give
• 1:02:58

  Speaker 3: I love Claudia the old time.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 4: She's the best, and she was like, your podcast should
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 4: be about jeans. And then so we switched studios. We
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 4: went to another studio across the hall, and we did
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 4: our podcast about jeans where we just talked about jeans
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 4: and our association with jeans and how we feel about jeans.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 4: And we had these like segments like sexiest jeans, like
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 4: coolest jeans, and we talk about those things and then
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 4: we kind of incredible, Yeah, we give it a shot
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 4: for like twenty minutes and we and then we kind
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 4: of afterwards go, how did that go? I think we
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 4: keep looking and keep looking for our podcast.

• 1:03:50
  Speaker 4: We cut it you know, I try to go viral
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 4: and sometimes I miss the mark.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you push the envelope. That's what you have to do. Okay,
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: everybody do whatever Beck just told you.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, just Superman, Superman.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 3: The other thing. Ignore. This is how we're gonna play
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 3: gift or a curse. I'm gonna name three things and
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: you're going to tell me if they're a gift or
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 3: a curse and why. Then I'll tell you if you're
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 3: right or wrong, because there are correct answers. Yes, okay.
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 3: Number one and these are all from our Patreon listeners today.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 3: This is from Aaron Gift or a curse, John Cougar
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 3: Mellencamp Gift.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 4: Why you know the name alone Cougar Melon Camp. I
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 4: mean that's like three things, a cougar, a melon, and
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 4: a camp. It's Cougar Melon Camp. I mean, can you
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 4: just like think of the place, like welcome to Cougar
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 4: Melon Camp. Like that name alone has not even been
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 4: unpacked enough. It's fantastic. It's such a rock and roll name.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 4: It's almost like it's kind of like makes me think
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 4: of Finn Wolfhart, like Wolfhart.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 3: That feels calculated.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it really does. His parents. It's tough, and but
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 4: John Cougar Mellencamp the name alone, I think is a gift.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 4: And you know, I'm somebody who loves music.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 3: An interesting quality.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I also love food.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: We got stock from very interesting.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 4: I like clothes, what else? I like sleeping TV? Very interesting.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 4: But I honestly couldn't name a song. But I know
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 4: I've rocked out to his music and it's kind of
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 4: like kind of makes him like it's it almost kind
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 4: of feels like a little old school Van Morrison, kind
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 4: of like something my parents would put on while they're
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 4: having a barbecue. But I really don't know. But I
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 4: feel like I like his music and it's more of
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 4: a gift. What is the right answer?
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately wrong curse, and I have to.
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 4: I think I don't know much about him as a
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 4: person though either, so.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: Well, yes, this is why it's a curse. I've been
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: very public about how much I hate the song Jack
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: and Diane.
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 4: Oh see, I think I'm okay with it.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: This may be my number one least favorite song of
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: all time?
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 4: Is it because of the way it sounds or the
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 4: lyrics both?
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: I think it's kind of little ditty about Jack one
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: of the all time worst pieces of music? Wow, maybe
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 3: my number one. I think it's a tie between that
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 3: and Red red Wine. They covered by ub forty.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 4: Oh my god. So this is this is a whole
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 4: category of my music that I listened to my parents
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: play growing up.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 3: Okay you for both of those songs.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 4: What do you How do you feel about I am yes,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: thank you for saying that. How do you feel about
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 4: Bruce Springsteen Love? Okay? Because I feel like a little
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 4: like the Jack and Diane. It feels a little spring.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: Jack and Diane feels like a store brand version of
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 3: Bruce Springs. Yeah, where it's like, let's do that. Yeah,
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 3: let's Americana Okay, yeah, chili dogs, let's go for it.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 3: And but this becomes a curse because maybe he's a
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 3: nice guy. Maybe he's got other music that I wouldn't hate,
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 3: but that you know, stop there, no, thank you, I'm
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 3: not entering that haunted house. Yeah, and I hope he's
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 3: not a nice guy. But if he is, my apologies
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 3: to And maybe it's an Oppenheimer situation where he's like,
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 3: what have I done?
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 4: Right? Right? Right? Right right? You know, he was a
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 4: good guy, good intention, but then he right created something
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 4: that he didn't know it was going to be that big.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 3: Right open Pandora's Box and has now kind of ruined
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 3: my life.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but on your to your point, I've never heard
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 4: anybody say I love John Cougar Mellon like doesn't never
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 4: I know, I've never heard that when people talking about
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 4: their favorite artists or albums. Cougar, Melon Camp.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 3: Do not know a single Mellon Camper. I don't know.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 4: Absolutely.
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: I can't imagine he's one that inspires a lot of
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 3: that sort of hardcore fandom. But I could be wrong.
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, he's a copier. Yeah.
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 3: Okay, so you've gotten one wrong so far. Good luck
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 3: with the rest of the game.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 4: Hey, I'm okay with getting them wrong.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, we'll see next. This is from a Heidi gift
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 3: or a curse. Washing your hands next to someone in
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: a pub restroom and performatively lathering longer than usual. This
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 3: kind of goes back to a little bit what we
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: were talking about earlier.
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 4: Okay, I mean that specifically, the feeling I'm gonna break
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 4: this down, the feeling of, you know, needing to impress
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 4: somebody next to you, I think is a curse. But
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 4: the result of the actual washing your hands because of that,
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 4: and fully cleaning them is a gift.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 3: Okay, but you have to commit to one or the other.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna say then it then, Neil, I'm gonna say
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 4: it's a curse.
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 3: Wrong, This is a gift, and you if you should
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 3: have you had the logic there.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I had the logic.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: You get to be on stage for a minute, you
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 3: get to perform, and what happens the social pressure leads
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 3: to you cleaning your hands.
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 4: Yes, however, okay, but here's my thing. The reason I
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 4: switched to curse is because I don't think that you
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 4: need to perform the washing to actually wash your hands.
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 4: I bet if you're somebody who would succumb to the
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 4: pressures of you know, the virtue signaling of washing your
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 4: hands for the whole birthday song twice or whatever it is,
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 4: and really getting in all the crass. Isn't that what
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 4: it was? Happy Birthday twice.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 3: I haven't washed my hands five years ago.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 4: That was the whole thing. I don't want to wash
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 4: my hands enough. But you know, I just I just
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 4: think that you're probably going to clean them well enough,
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean, And what you really need
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 4: to do is get down to why you're doing what
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 4: you're doing and who you're doing it for. And if
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 4: you're doing it for some stranger next to you in
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 4: a bathroom, then you have some things to look at.
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 3: Well, you don't get the point. I don't care.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I know that this is cutthroat. I know
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 4: that this is not a debate. No no, no, no,
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 4: not a discussion. There's a right and wrong. We can
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 4: talk about it.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Course, there's a very high standard and you have
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 3: not met it yet.
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 4: Of course. Now that is that. That is that goes
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 4: for the rest of my life. There's a there's a
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 4: standard that I don't meet and that's okay, and that
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 4: feels That feels good. So let's see what happens.
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 3: Let's see what happens with the third one. This is
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 3: from Candace Gift or a curse when they say the
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: movie title.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 4: In the movie, Oh my, that's a curse. Why because
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 4: it's you're stuck, you know, it's like you're boiling this
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 4: whole movie down. It's like you have the you have
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 4: the title, you're watching the movie, and then they say
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 4: it and you're like, oh, God, like couldn't you just
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 4: like So that's that's what I'm watching here is the
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 4: title drop? You know what I mean? Like, I can't
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 4: just be watching the movie and it's called something. You
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 4: have to be like, you know, I can't think of
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 4: a fake movie name and then say it. But or
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 4: like I guess, well, I guess Welcome to Jurassic Park
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 4: was pretty cool.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 3: Oh, interesting, But that kind of isn't quite the title.
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 4: It's it's not.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 3: Which would be a great title of movie. Yeah, another
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 3: movie it would be.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 4: But yeah, can you think of an example where they
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 4: dropped the title in a way that's like.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 3: Oh, do you know what I actually watched the other night?
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 3: It was a Mike Lee movie, Secrets and Lies. Yeah,
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 3: And at one point somebody says secrets.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 4: And Lies And how did you feel when you heard that?
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 3: Well, are you done? Answering, Well you done? Do you
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 3: want to talk through your thing anymore?
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 4: No? No, no to curse, curse.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 3: You failed the game. You failed the game. God absolutely
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 3: totally struck out zero ow that's gotta sting ow OW.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 4: I was just hoping for one, for one right answer,
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 4: just to like now I'm going to walk away being
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 4: like me and Bridger did not connect.
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 3: There was no clicking off balance like.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 4: There was, and that's what I came for, was just
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 4: a nice connected time.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 3: And it's been very cold, and it's.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 4: Been very cold. He doesn't cook. He's going to use
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 4: wood oil for his wood in his rock hard body
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 4: because wooden didn't quite work there. But he's gonna get
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 4: But that's okay as long as you use the oil. Right,
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 4: I'm happy.
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 3: This episode is gonna labeled a missfire, huge miss fire,
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: and that's it's hard to hear, but you tried. I tried.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I'm used to it. Like I said,
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 4: it's okay. You know, it's really just about having fun
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 4: and just kind of being yourself, trying your best, Yeah,
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 4: trying your best, not trying too hard, not trying too
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 4: hard for other people. Right. You know, now I'm not
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 4: sitting down here going like I'm just letting it out,
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 4: you know, I'm just being myself, and I hope that's okay.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 4: I wasn't coming in here being like guns blazing or anything.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 4: I was just just being the bee and.
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 3: You kind of fell on your face and you'll learn
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 3: from that.
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 4: And that's part of the process, absolutely, And that's in
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 4: this business.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 3: In this business, you've got to learn.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 4: You have to learn on camera. You have to learn
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 4: on camera in front of in front of your audiences.
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 4: That's what people love to see.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 3: Somebody just kind of making their way through the process.
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 4: Charlie Chaplin, Yes, left and right, coffy as hell, all
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 4: over the place.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 3: Well, it is a gift. Uh, you know, this is
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 3: a nice little it's a little wink to the observant viewer.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 3: You know, somebody's gonna say, oh, I remember the title
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 3: of the movie, and now they're oh, what an interesting
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 3: easter egg. Yeah, I got to hear the title of
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 3: the movie that I know. It also might be a
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 3: nice like maybe you forgot the title of the movie
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 3: and for the last hour and a half you've been
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 3: kind of sweating trying to remember. You're like, this is
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 3: ruining them a really good Yeah, I wish I could
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: enjoy this, And then you get it and you're like, Okay,
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 3: at least the next twenty minutes or so will be
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 3: if I can unpack and figure it out, and then
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 3: when I see the movie again, hopefully I won't forget.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's a nice reminder. It's good riding of
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 3: what you're watching, Yes, bringing you in, Yes, what if
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 3: it's the last thing.
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 4: What if it's like the ending.
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 3: Oh interesting.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 4: I don't know why I'm thinking Gothica. I don't know
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 4: if I've never seen that movie. At the end, at
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 4: the end, seeing is that halle Berry, I think.
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 3: Hallie turns to camera and goes Gothica.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, now that's a Gothica. That was a big old Gothica.
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 3: Credits roll. Yeah, that was the one mistake they made
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 3: with that movie.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 4: I know, I know, it's like, it's just you got
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 4: everything's got to be just right. Make one mistake in
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 4: the movie's crap.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 3: But she kind of demanded in contract, I get to say.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 4: I get to say Gothica.
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 3: At the end, she was thinking about the audience. Yeah,
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 3: thinking I need.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 4: To kind of sounds like, well, it kind of sounds
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 4: like Gotcha. It's a new prank show Gothica.
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, kind of a god show. The hosts and black
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: lipstick and platform boots and.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 4: They're like Gothica and they're right, that's what they say
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 4: at the end when they gotcha.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 3: They turned into a cloud of bats and fly away.
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so many ideas.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 3: We have a TV show, Yes, we got a TV show.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 3: Two TV shows, and I can't remember either of them.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 4: Well that was that was one and then there was
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 4: the baker. Oh yeah, of course they could be a
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 4: movie too.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 3: Yes, I feel like but let's you know, let's do
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 3: at least three seasons.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 4: Yes, of course, let's make some money. Yeah, you've got
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 4: to make a little indication. Yes, make a little dough.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: Okay, you failed the game. That's a gift.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 4: Failed the game.
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 3: Now Anals needs to atleast does a gift a curse
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 3: which we both have to speak to. And this is
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 3: probably Look, this is one chance for you to outdo me. Okay, correct,
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 3: you might finally get a foot up on me. This
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 3: is the most important part, Analis. What are we doing?
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 5: Gift or a curse? Watching a movie you've already seen
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 5: with someone who's never seen it?
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 3: Do you want to speak to this or should I?
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, there's we don't need an answer to this,
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 4: but it's is it a movie you like?
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 4: And I'm gonna say it is because you're watching it
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 4: again with something right hasn't seen it. I do you
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 4: have a thought? Do you have something?
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 3: I have a thought?
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 4: You go ahead, I have a thought too.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 3: I think that this is a gift. This is a
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 3: little for the next one ninety minutes to three hours,
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: you are going to be You're gonna be the smartest
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 3: person in the room. The person next to you has
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: no idea what's going on, and you're you're thinking yourself,
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 3: this naive idiot.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 4: Gothica, I gotica there, I got to go there, And
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 4: you're about the about the Gothica right here.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 3: And they're just dumb as rocks for at least the
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 3: next few.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 4: Minutes, and they're going and you're yep, yes, it's such.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: The power dynamics is so luxurious. You get to just
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 3: bathe in that absolutely, and I think that's a gift.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 4: I completely agree. I was going to say a gift
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 4: as well. You know, if it was a curse, you
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 4: wouldn't be sitting down to watch the movie that you
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 4: watch and being like, I've seen this already. Yeah, it's fun.
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 4: You're in the driver's seat in a different way. You
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 4: get to feel it's almost like, you know, with the
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 4: with the wrong person, I wouldn't be this person, of course,
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 4: but it's almost like you made the.
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 3: Movie part of the filmmaker.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 4: You're like, I showed this to you and I've seen it,
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 4: and I'm I am the expert on it. You know,
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 4: somebody could. I've definitely been in the position where people
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 4: would basically go as far as to like take full
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 4: control of the experience.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 3: It's a personality.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good personality talking about the behind the
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 4: scenes of it and everything, how the shot was done,
• 1:17:24
  Speaker 4: whatever it may be. But yeah, I think that for
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 4: the person who's already seen it. Yeah, it's definitely a
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 4: gift on a lease.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 5: You're right, it's a gift. Oh, thank god, it's a
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 5: gift getting to have that kind of power over anybody.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 5: Oh how delicious. Like you said, you get to see
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 5: into a future that they don't know exists yet. And also,
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 5: this is to me a little insight. So if it
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 5: is a movie that you do like and you're with
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 5: somebody who doesn't like it, then well maybe you just
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 5: learn something about them that you need to kind of
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 5: stow away for for later.
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 3: Maybe the last movie you watch with them.
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 4: This is maybe you're gonna break up with them now
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 4: if you're more aligned with the movie than the person.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 3: That's right, Yes, exactly, And we always side with the movie.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 4: Always side with the movies in this in this business.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 3: Do you know, do you know what This is a
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 3: brief thing. But something that feels longer than watching a
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 3: movie with another person to me is showing another person
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 3: a song. The agony of the three to four minutes
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 3: of being like, oh, try this, and they're if they're
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 3: in the room.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 4: With you, especially if you're it's not if you're like
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 4: maybe putting on a record and it's in the background,
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 4: but if you're like, here's listen to this song, it
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 4: is a lot, and you're looking at them and they're.
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 3: Kind of like, you're getting closer and closer.
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 4: I couldn't agree more. It is so much more intense.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 4: Oh and then because the the reaction is because I
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 4: think with a with a song, you can after you
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 4: listen to a song, like you like a song, you
• 1:18:53

  Speaker 6: Hi, Bridger, Onalise and guest, I have a question about
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 6: how to respond to a friend who insists on referring
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 6: to my normal life as a lifestyle. I'm in my
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 6: mid thirties, single, no kids, and she married, has kids,
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 6: stay at home mom and will frequently say things like,
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 6: well with your lifestyle, x y z am. I wrong
• 1:20:10
  Speaker 6: to not like my normal life being referred to as
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 6: a lifestyle. How should I respond to this?
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 4: Thank you?
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm okay. So I have at least one listener
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 3: whose life is a mess. They're out of control. Ah,
• 1:20:23
  Speaker 3: and they have this lifestyle that I don't approve of,
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 3: and now they're asking me for advice. Yeah, that's an
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 3: interesting one. And she's got this friend who's trying to
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 3: kind of set her straight, right, And instead of you know,
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 3: conforming to whatever the friend wants, she's turning to a podcast. Yeah,
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 3: how do you deal with that friend who has this lovely,
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 3: gorgeous life. She's made all of the right choices.
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, not she's in a hellhole.
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she's in a hellhole, a downward spiral. Absolutely, And
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 3: she obviously doesn't see anything wrong with him.
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 4: No, No, she's stuck. When you're in hell, you don't
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 4: know you're in hell. No, it's only when you get
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 4: out of hell that you know you were in hell.
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 3: Yes, you all know that. And her friend is panicking,
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 3: she's she's saying, how do I help?
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 4: Right? Right?
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 3: Why don't I just kind of subtly pass aggressive nature,
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 3: call it a life stay. Maybe she'll pick up on
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 3: this friend is so dense, This.
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 4: Friend is so dense. Maybe I'll just have a little
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 4: pause in between life and style. Well, you know, with
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 4: your life style, say it in a different way, and
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 4: maybe I'll help her that way.
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 3: This friend is approaching air quotes, you know, lifestyle.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 4: Lifestyle, A little handwave of your lifestyle. That's all a
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 4: little dance, move your lifestyle.
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 3: Purely in the service of trying to help her mess of.
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 4: A light right, and she's turning to us. She doesn't
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 4: even know who I am. I know too, it's very risky. Now,
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 4: now do you what do you? What do you have
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 4: to say to this?
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know that this person should continue
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: listening to the podcast. I need to cut these people
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 3: out of the podcast. We have a kind of you know,
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: everybody that listens to this podcast is on the straight
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 3: and arrow has at least two children, a loving husband, god,
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 3: and a gorgeous car and backyard.
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 4: You got to have a backyard for the kids to
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 4: run around. Yeah, and maybe a driveway to wash that
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 4: car on the weekends.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 3: When you're feeling like washing the car.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, No, you don't have to.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 3: You don't have to. You could just go to the
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 3: place you know your detailer.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 4: But to do it at home, it's it's when you,
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 4: it's when you kind of it's an intimate action.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 3: That's right. You throw your bikini on, you're.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 4: Really giving your car some tender, loving care. You're slipping
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 4: a spider loving car. Great car wash, yeah, yeah.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 3: And ideas podcast, Yeah.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 4: An ideas podcast. Left and right, I mean, you know, do.
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 3: You wanna I mean, do you have any advice for
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 3: this person? The lifestyle?
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 4: You know, she's saying lifestyle because she's she's jealous.
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because her life sucks.
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 4: She can't. She can't have a lifestyle when you have kids?
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 4: She did she say two kids?
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 3: Two kids who she's thinking to put up for adoption.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 3: Of course she is.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: She can't.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 4: People, are you kidding me? Who wants a life when
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 4: you can have a lifestyle. I mean so, I think
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 4: in a way it is actually a compliment. It's like, oh,
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 4: you get to have a lifestyle. You get to choose
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 4: what you do in the morning or at night or
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 4: any time you are not like, fully, I only have
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 4: one child, and like that was such a life style chance.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 4: And then now you talk to I talked to parents
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 4: who have two kids, and they're like, one is an accessory,
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 4: that's what they say. Two is a lifestyle. I'm like,
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 4: this is this is not a lifestyle change. So two kids,
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 4: it's a lot, you know. That's she's probably not even
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 4: seeing her.
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 3: Husband increasingly distant.
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they partner off. Kid one takes the other kid.
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 4: They're not seeing each other. So she is my advice
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 4: for you to be able to handle it is she's
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 4: she's jealous, she wishes she had a style.
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 3: And you make her nervous.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely, she she's like, oh, that must be nice
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 4: with your lifestyle. You can just go have a glass
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 4: of wine with a friend at five pm or whatever.
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 4: You can just sit in just watch TV in bed
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 4: and go to a yoga class whenever or whatever. So
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 4: you know, that's that's to our to the listener. That's
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 4: how you do. That's deck might help you deal with that.
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 3: Sure, Maybe start using the word yourself.
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah and mean yeah, I would say, start talking about
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 4: her life as a lifestyle, right, because that was a
• 1:24:36
  Speaker 4: lifestyle choice. She decided to have tea.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 3: She has a lifestyle as well.
• 1:24:39
  Speaker 4: I would say, though, like having kids is kind of
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 4: like reaching some level of fame through at least through acting.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 4: Like people with acting people say, well, you chose this.
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 4: It's like I didn't want to be famous. I was like,
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 4: I wanted to do theater.
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 3: You chose.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 4: It was like, I was, you chose it. You didn't
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 4: want to be an actor. You wanted to be famous, and.
• 1:24:55
  Speaker 3: I wanted to be bothered.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I wanted to be I didn't want to You
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 4: wanted to walk down the street and have people scream
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 4: at you.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 3: That was ultimately your childhood's dream was how can I
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 3: be bothered? Nonsense?
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 4: Yes, and have people just like wanting to take photos
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 4: with me with these phones that don't exist yet, and
• 1:25:10
  Speaker 4: it's being like capturing my every move. Yeah, it's kind
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 4: of like having a kid. It's like, oh, I want
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 4: to have a family, and then you have a family
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 4: and you're like, well I didn't want this. No, it's
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 4: it is fantastic having a family, but it is like
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 4: one of those things where you're like, oh, it's a
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 4: lot zoom. But you should start calling her lifestyle.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 3: Start throwing it around about everybody in your life.
• 1:25:32
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, Yeah, make it, just throw it around.
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 3: Become somebody that they write in about you to the podcast.
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, and let her have a problem with the lifestyle,
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 4: right choice of words, and then you can be like, well,
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 4: that's what you say about my life.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 3: And that's a big friendship ending fight.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 4: That's when you fight. That's when you grab your big
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 4: spoon and yeah, finish her off, get the spoon, finish
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 4: her off. God damn it.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 3: Well we answered the question perfect.
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 4: I think it was perfect. I think we gave her
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 4: some inner piece and also some action.
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 3: You know, an actionable item item?
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 4: Is that a thing that people say.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 3: I think an actual item is a thing, right, It's
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 3: like a thing you can maybe is it a therapy
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 3: thing where it's like, this is something that you can
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 3: do to correct whatever's going on.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 4: It feels like a therapy thing.
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because I don't feel like if a boss was like,
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 3: here's an actionable item, here's something you can do, that's
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 3: I'm leaving the office. Yeah, I don't want to be here.
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 3: But it is an actionable item, and hopefully this is
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 3: the first step to getting out of her disgusting lifestyle.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 4: Absolutely good luck, good having some direction and purpose and
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 4: then creating a person and something.
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 3: Well, beck, I have my spoon, I have my oil.
