Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: You had a list, Gina? Oh. I mean, I found
- 0:05Speaker 1: that list of 28 sauces that can.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Transform any meal.
- 0:12Speaker 1: But as I looked, I'll have to look for it again.
- 0:16Speaker 2: You found it in the roster?
- 0:18Speaker 1: I found it, and I saved it into a file,
- 0:21Speaker 1: but sometimes it doesn't work right.
- 0:22Speaker 2: You're just teasing people with the sauce list.
- 0:24Speaker 1: I know somebody at FanX asked me. When are we
- 0:27Speaker 1: ever going to get that list? 28 sauces that can
- 0:30Speaker 1: enhance any meal. All right.
- 0:33Speaker 3: So Gina's got the list.
- 0:34Speaker 2: Yes.
- 0:34Speaker 3: All right, here we go.
- 0:36Speaker 1: It's Radio From Hell with another list.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Because people love a good list. X96.
- 0:43Speaker 1: And as I re-looked at that list, by the way,
- 0:46Speaker 1: it's a good list.
- 0:48Speaker 2: 28 sauces. So you guys are going to have to
- 0:52Speaker 2: confirm or deny this list. Because this is a list
- 0:56Speaker 2: of things guys don't care about that women think they
- 0:59Speaker 2: care about.
- 1:00Speaker 3: That women think that we care about.
- 1:03Speaker 1: All right. Okay.
- 1:04Speaker 2: Number one, men don't care if your hair or makeup
- 1:08Speaker 2: isn't perfect.
- 1:10Speaker 1: I don't care. Yeah, I don't.
- 1:11Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't have to be perfect.
- 1:14Speaker 2: University of Texas Austin researchers found that attractiveness is defined
- 1:18Speaker 2: by uniqueness over time. rather than specific looks. Evaluations show
- 1:24Speaker 2: that our perception of attractiveness is not fixed. What we
- 1:27Speaker 2: may have initially seen as all right can become far
- 1:30Speaker 2: more appealing once you get.
- 1:32Speaker 4: To know somebody. They don't have to be perfect looking. Yeah, sometimes,
- 1:37Speaker 4: I mean, I'll say to my wife, I really just
- 1:41Speaker 4: like the way you look today. She says, what, I
- 1:42Speaker 4: haven't showered for two days.
- 1:44Speaker 1: What do you mean?
- 1:45Speaker 2: Conversely, women who are initially thought of as hot... Mm-hmm.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Men might find their allure diminishing over time once they
- 1:54Speaker 2: get to know them.
- 1:54Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 1:56Speaker 1: That could certainly happen.
- 1:59Speaker 2: Let's see. Number two, we don't care about those few
- 2:02Speaker 2: extra pounds that you want to lose.
- 2:05Speaker 1: We don't. No, don't care. As long as you don't
- 2:08Speaker 1: care about mine.
- 2:09Speaker 2: We all have insecurities, men included. This is what they're saying,
- 2:12Speaker 2: that men have plenty of things they want to change
- 2:15Speaker 2: about their bodies, too. We just enjoy you, and we
- 2:18Speaker 2: want you to enjoy yourself, it says. Number three, we
- 2:23Speaker 2: don't care if you make more money than we do.
- 2:25Speaker 1: No, as a matter of fact, I'd prefer that. Exactly.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Or less, or the same. Men who are secure about
- 2:32Speaker 2: themselves pay much more attention to who you are and
- 2:35Speaker 2: how you make people feel. then how much money you make.
- 2:39Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I have always wanted to
- 2:41Speaker 1: be a kept man and not have to work at all.
- 2:44Speaker 3: Check your receipts because as of the first.
- 2:47Speaker 1: That may happen.
- 2:48Speaker 3: It may be happening right now.
- 2:52Speaker 1: I think she's applying for a job now.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Let's see. Number four. We don't care if you text
- 3:00Speaker 2: us first. So this is all, like when I was
- 3:03Speaker 2: growing up, girls were not supposed to call boys.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Right, yeah.
- 3:07Speaker 2: You have to wait for that.
- 3:08Speaker 3: This is the.
- 3:10Speaker 2: Same thing now. Many women don't think they should text
- 3:14Speaker 2: a man first because they think it shows desperation, but
- 3:17Speaker 2: that's not true.
- 3:17Speaker 1: No, it's not true. We like it.
- 3:19Speaker 2: If he's not texting you he's interested, he's likely thinking
- 3:22Speaker 2: about it and just doesn't want to come across as
- 3:24Speaker 2: too strong.
- 3:25Speaker 1: Or I'm busy.
- 3:26Speaker 2: He will more than likely welcome seeing your name pop
- 3:28Speaker 2: up on his phone and it will take the pressure
- 3:30Speaker 2: off him.
- 3:31Speaker 1: Oh, I hope my wife doesn't see this. That kind
- 3:35Speaker 1: of thing.
- 3:36Speaker 3: There's a mathematical equation in the movie Swingers about how
- 3:39Speaker 3: long you should wait to call him.
- 3:42Speaker 1: And I can't remember what that is now.
- 3:45Speaker 2: We don't care what you look like when you wake
- 3:47Speaker 2: up in the morning.
- 3:48Speaker 4: Nope.
- 3:49Speaker 2: I've heard some women who either won't let men stay
- 3:52Speaker 2: over or who wake up early to put makeup on
- 3:56Speaker 2: or go to bed with makeup on because they don't
- 3:58Speaker 2: want him to see how they look when they wake
- 4:00Speaker 2: up in the morning. Truth is, most men don't care.
- 4:03Speaker 1: No.
- 4:03Speaker 2: They're just happy to be waking up next to you.
- 4:08Speaker 2: We don't care what you order for dinner. Well, no.
- 4:11Speaker 1: I don't know about that.
- 4:13Speaker 2: If you want a steak, order a steak. Don't feel
- 4:16Speaker 2: like you have to get a salad. Yeah. Get whatever
- 4:19Speaker 2: you want.
- 4:21Speaker 1: This all just seems so basic.
- 4:23Speaker 2: I don't... No, but there are women that worry about
- 4:25Speaker 2: these things.
- 4:26Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:26Speaker 2: I don't want to look like a pig. I'm going
- 4:28Speaker 2: to order a salad.
- 4:30Speaker 1: I can guarantee you that any woman who ever went
- 4:32Speaker 1: out with me did not care about any of this
- 4:36Speaker 1: stuff because she was with me.
- 4:37Speaker 2: Oh, I'm just going out with... I'm going to go
- 4:40Speaker 2: out with Bill because I can eat whatever I want.
- 4:41Speaker 1: I can do whatever I want.
- 4:45Speaker 2: Don't care if you swear.
- 4:48Speaker 1: No, I don't care. Yeah. I actually kind of like it.
- 4:53Speaker 2: Some women feel like it's not ladylike to swear, and
- 4:56Speaker 2: it's not gentlemanly to either, but let's be honest, we're
- 4:59Speaker 2: all mature adults and can handle language.
- 5:02Speaker 3: Except for the FCC, it disagrees.
- 5:04Speaker 2: Oh, that's true.
- 5:04Speaker 1: I mean, what the are you talking about?
- 5:08Speaker 2: Both gender fluidity and questioning of gender norms have fundamentally
- 5:11Speaker 2: changed perceptions of what is feminine behavior and what is
- 5:14Speaker 2: masculine behavior.
- 5:15Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't worry about that.
- 5:17Speaker 2: And the effect of social media on empowering women and
- 5:19Speaker 2: giving them an equal voice.
- 5:21Speaker 1: The fact that I prefer wearing a nightgown to bed
- 5:25Speaker 1: is just... My wife is fine with that.
- 5:29Speaker 2: Do you wear the cap, too? Do you wear a nightcap?
- 5:31Speaker 1: No, no, I just wear the... I guess it's not
- 5:34Speaker 1: a nightgown. It's more of a negligee that I wear.
- 5:36Speaker 2: Oh! Does it have feathers and things?
- 5:39Speaker 3: Yeah, a little.
- 5:41Speaker 2: This says, men don't care if you're not perfect. Nobody's perfect.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Well.
- 5:47Speaker 2: I don't think men expect you to be perfect. I
- 5:50Speaker 2: think the point of this is there's so much Instagram
- 5:55Speaker 2: and all of the filters and the airbrushing and people
- 5:59Speaker 2: cleaning up their pictures and making them look a certain way.
- 6:02Speaker 3: I mean, just... It's like watching a sitcom, a romantic
- 6:08Speaker 3: sitcom movie. That's not real life.
- 6:11Speaker 4: No.
- 6:12Speaker 3: And we have to remind ourselves that Instagram is not
- 6:15Speaker 3: real life.
- 6:16Speaker 2: I just think it must be so hard for younger
- 6:20Speaker 2: people now to start dating and be in relationships. I mean,
- 6:26Speaker 2: we didn't have to deal with any of this stuff.
- 6:29Speaker 3: I mean, there are these AI-based apps that will make
- 6:33Speaker 3: your skin look smoother and.
- 6:35Speaker 1: There are?
- 6:36Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Augment your, you know. It's actually right here on my phone.
- 6:42Speaker 2: But, you know, maybe then you're worried about meeting somebody
- 6:45Speaker 2: in person because all of the pictures you've put up
- 6:47Speaker 2: of yourself don't really look like you.
- 6:49Speaker 3: Well, and that's what's been happening is that they're not
- 6:51Speaker 3: meeting in person.
- 6:53Speaker 1: It's been happening to you? I thought we were talking
- 6:57Speaker 1: about young people. Oh, just in general.
- 7:00Speaker 2: I think it's harder for them, much harder. Yeah.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Hmm.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Oh, that was the last part. That was the last part. Yeah,
- 7:07Speaker 2: that was the last part. But I do not envy
- 7:10Speaker 2: kids today for lots of reasons I don't. State of
- 7:13Speaker 2: the world notwithstanding. I sent my daughter yesterday because we've
- 7:18Speaker 2: been talking about that movie Idiocracy. And I saw a
- 7:23Speaker 2: clip online yesterday of it because I was trying to
- 7:25Speaker 2: explain it to her how what's happening now is like that.
- 7:30Speaker 2: And it's the clip where there's these two... Really smart, well-dressed,
- 7:37Speaker 2: well-spoken people being interviewed. And they're like, well, yeah, we
- 7:42Speaker 2: aren't going to have kids with the state of the world.
- 7:44Speaker 2: And this movie came out years ago.
- 7:47Speaker 3: That's the beginning of the movie.
- 7:49Speaker 1: It came out, am I right, 50 years ago? Was
- 7:52Speaker 1: it that long ago?
- 7:53Speaker 2: I don't think it was that long, but it was
- 7:55Speaker 2: a long time ago.
- 7:56Speaker 1: I heard somebody discussing that movie just yesterday. And they said,
- 7:59Speaker 1: I just re-watched it. And I forgot. I used to
- 8:03Speaker 1: think it was a comedy. It was so depressing. I
- 8:05Speaker 1: almost couldn't get through it.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Yeah. But the point of it is. So how did
- 8:08Speaker 2: we get to a state where our country was in
- 8:11Speaker 2: such bad shape? Is that the smart people stopped having
- 8:15Speaker 2: kids and the dumb people kept having kids.
- 8:20Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 8:22Speaker 1: That's the point. That's the movie.
- 8:23Speaker 2: Yeah. And that it.
- 8:25Speaker 1: Whether that's really true or not, I don't know.
- 8:27Speaker 2: And we're there, it seems like.
- 8:31Speaker 3: It was 2006. 20 years old.
- 8:33Speaker 1: 20 years old. But it's like this quote sort of
- 8:38Speaker 1: sums that up. And I have this on all my
- 8:42Speaker 1: email I send out. It's from Isaac Asimov. There's a
- 8:47Speaker 1: cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always
- 8:50Speaker 1: has been. The strains of anti-intellectualism has been a constant
- 8:55Speaker 1: thread winding its way through our political and cultural life,
- 9:00Speaker 1: nurtured by the false notion that democracy means my ignorance
- 9:05Speaker 1: is as good as your knowledge.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Yes.
- 9:08Speaker 1: That's not true. Your ignorance is ignorance, and it is
- 9:12Speaker 1: not as good as knowledge.
- 9:13Speaker 2: No.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Isaac Asimov was a wise man.
- 9:18Speaker 2: But you can see why... Again, I feel bad for
- 9:21Speaker 2: kids today that are trying to figure out starting dating
- 9:24Speaker 2: and having relationships. I feel bad for them having to
- 9:27Speaker 2: think about, is this a world I want to bring
- 9:30Speaker 2: children into?
- 9:30Speaker 1: Why don't you give them a little help then? Open
- 9:33Speaker 1: up Gina Barberi's Counseling Service for Young Adults. Come on.
- 9:37Speaker 1: You can do it. You're not accomplishing anything by feeling.
- 9:41Speaker 2: Bad about it. No, I need to do something.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Help them. Help these poor unfortunates.
- 9:49Speaker 2: I understand the struggles for sure.
- 9:53Speaker 3: Is this also kind of a hidden cry for grandchildren?
- 10:00Speaker 2: Not at all. Oh, my God. I mean, eventually, I
- 10:04Speaker 2: would think that. Many, many, many years from now.
- 10:07Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know. I think you're ready to be
- 10:08Speaker 1: Granny Gina.
- 10:09Speaker 2: Oh, no.
- 10:10Speaker 3: No, she wouldn't be Granny Gina.
- 10:11Speaker 1: No, she'll have to be Grandma Mary. Grandma Mary.
- 10:13Speaker 2: No, no. Grandma Gina is Gigi.
- 10:16Speaker 1: You'll have to be Bubby.
- 10:18Speaker 2: Gigi is Grandma Gina.
- 10:19Speaker 3: So you're not going to be Grandma-er?
- 10:21Speaker 2: No.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Gigi?
- 10:23Speaker 2: Gigi. My name is asking for Gigi.
- 10:27Speaker 1: Huh? Okay. Grandma Gina. You mean G, Grandma, and G, Gina?
- 10:32Speaker 2: Yes.
- 10:32Speaker 1: But Gigi sounds like you're Grandma Stripper. You're a stripper.
- 10:37Speaker 1: That's what it sounds like.
- 10:37Speaker 2: Well, maybe I will.
- 10:38Speaker 3: Or the lead singer of a punk band that was
- 10:41Speaker 3: really quite disgusting.
- 10:42Speaker 1: Maybe.
