  Speaker 1: And what if I lost both my hands tomorrow.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: You could be a sat model star. I was sixteen
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: at the time or fifteen, And and then hook it
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: up with a witch and that was that. Cats can
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: smile apparently, whoa weird, But it doesn't always mean that
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: they're happy.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: Lucy receives a call from what I can only assume
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: is the future winner of every acting award ever.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Jenny Moan is a star. Her looks looks weren't
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: part of the issue.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: He's like, I had to sell my last top hat
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: for Janas.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Maybe this is not appropriate eitherre but let's see.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Hey, what's up, nostalgia nerds?
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: Hope you're ready for another quick meal of a nostalgia Nuggets.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: But today's not a normal one. We have a very
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: special guest. You might remember her from a previous episode
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: of Charm. Today, I have back, Kathy.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: How you doing, Thanks for having me back?
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Excited too?
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And so you're the second person that we've had
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: to do this Nostalgia Nuggets with us. So I'm just
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: gonna start and then just you know, we'll have Jeff
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: go and then if you want to go after that,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: just to get an idea.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: So any what are you nostalgic for today?
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: I was thinking, because I'm playing a lot of music lately,
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: and I am nostalgic for feeling how magic, how magical
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: music is before you learn how to play music. So,
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: before I learned how to play guitar and drums and
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: everything I used to like, music was so magical to
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: me because you didn't know what was going on. Now
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: it's really hard to impress me. I don't want to
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: sound all like cocky or whatever, but like, if I
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: hear a brand new song that I really like, it's awesome,
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: but I know exactly how they're making that music. So
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: I've lost that little bit of like intrigue, And so
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: I'm nostalgic for not knowing how to play music.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: Huh, So when did this? So when you listen to
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: a good song, now was lost good song you heard.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Brand like a new brand song.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: Or just a new song you maybe rediscovered, or you're like, hey,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: this is a good song.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know the top of my head. It's really hard.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I can't think of one right now.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: But it's just like it's it's not as fun to
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: listen to because you're overanalyzing it.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Yes, And because now that I know exactly basically what
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: chords they're hitting or doing that, know how, like they're
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: moving their fingers on the neck and I know, like
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: just everything about it, it's lost that intrigue. So it's
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: like it's just saying. It's like when you learn a
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: magic trick, you're like, oh, that's not very cool. I know,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: because it was really easy.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: It's a fake thumb, yeah, you know.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: But before that you're in like wonder.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: And it's like, wow, how did they do that? How
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: can somebody actually do that? But now it's like, I
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: don't know. It's still fun, but I don't know, kind
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: of kind of sucks, like.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: For the listener who didn't know the thumb reference because
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: they wouldn't because they weren't here a few minutes ago.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: But yeah, there's a there was a thumb piece that
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: goes over somebody's thumb on this table right here, and
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Andy used it to do a magic trick to hide
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: a Titsu role in it. But did you have to
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: where did you order this thumb from Amazon?
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Yes? I did have to darken it up a little bit,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: like that is they have I think check this out.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: White or black because I don't have any brown, just
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: like I bought these spock ears.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they were so white.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I looked like a well, I looked like a folks
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: I had spok ears on, but I also looked like
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: a fool because they were like completely white, and I
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: was I am.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Not Was this the only thing you bought in that order?
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know. I do a lot of drunk orders.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Or did you buy that?
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Did it come in a bag of these?
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: No, that was only one. I think it was like
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: ten bucks, which actually isn't bad. I've got a lot.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I've had that for like four years.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: I'm just picturing like the packager person and that works
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: the Amazon being like, oh I need I need this
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: one thumb. Okay, never to package that up in material
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: that costs more than the thumb does.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Have to drive it across the country, cashole, you know,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: like once.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: The thumb.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Get this.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: Did you to ever watch the Uma Thurman movie with
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: the and she has a really big thumb.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: What's that called kill Bill? No?
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: Oh, even cowgirls get the Blues.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I've never heard of that.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, it's not good, but it's good.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: It is the point of the movie. Her having a
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: big thumb.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Oh that's good.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that sounds like I.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Think Quent, you know, maybe directed it. I don't know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: I'm going to look.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: It up, but I feel like a sequel. They may
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: a sequel to that movie. It could have Megan Fox.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: So she has those fucked up fingers, like thumb fingers.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, next time you see you can't see it.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: But she's pregnant now, so yeah, I guess someone looks
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: past that. Okay, So what I'm nostalgic for. I did
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: a lighthearted one because sometimes mine are a little, you know, risque.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: So I am nostalgic for as we're heading into the
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: holiday season, just those times, at least when I was
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: a kid believing in Santa, believing in the Easter Bunny
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: and the Tooth Fairy.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: So all those.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Creatures that would come home, coming your home at night,
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: even when they would bring us stuff because they all
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: did Easter Benny, Santa, Tooth Fairy was kind of like
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: that was kind of trading or they purchased from us. Yeah,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: but that's like that's pretty fucked up and crazy.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: The excitement of like stinging up at night, like wanting
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: to like trying to force myself to stay up so
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I can see them. Was just like leaving trees, you know, cookies.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: And then for the Easter Bunny carrots you know, not
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: right now because the cole I outbreak with carrots.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't know about that, but I did watch
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: a video of Steven Sagollad.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Eating a carrot.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: You did.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really weird. He's with some dictator for some
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: of the country.
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: This dictator like pulls a carrot out of the ground,
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: like skins it and then gives it to Sigall.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Then he like looks at it really like all.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Right, And the really weird the carrot was it's it was.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Like a bugs bunny carrot. Yeah. Yeah, it's like a
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: three minute video.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Apparently, if if there's cole I on food, then I
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: took a little AzID pam on the way here, Okay,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: then it's even hard to wash it off. So and
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: it usually impacts organic fruit and vegetables, so that's why
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: I eat processed okay. So and then I loved like
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: now like I'm nostalgic for those days, but now I'm
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: excited because I've done the Easter Bunny where but I
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: do to the next level. I threw up like a
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: buck ton of carrots and then like projectile vomit them
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: all over the floor. So it just like so my
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: kid wakes up and like just sees like chewed up
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: carrots everywhere, because it's like you have to take that
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: bite out of like the cookie for Santa to know
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: that Santa came. So I do that with the carrots.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't like it.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: They don't go down my throat, but I chew them
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: up and I spin them out.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Do you know why the tooth fairy is a thing? Why?
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: It's like the scariest shit I've ever heard in my life.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: So they're back in the day. The Old Wife's tie
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: was if you lose your teeth when they fall out
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: when you die, you roam the earth until you find them.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: So they used to it's not like the scariest saddest
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: thing ever to tell a little kid. But what they
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: used to do was they used to bury it in
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: the backyard and somehow it got transformed to under your pillow.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: To get money for it.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: But isn't that like, yeah, that's like the saddest scariest
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: thing I've ever like thought about, Like just looking for
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: a tooth like yo, that'd be that you can find
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: a tooth.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I think in some cultures, if you get like
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: a leg amputated, they hold on to it so you're
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: buried with your leg.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: Jeff, if I took one of your teeth right now
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: and I just placed it somewhere in Kaiser, I feel
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: like you would never be able to find this hill
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: the next forty years. So imagine if it was all
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: around the earth, good luck.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Well I would.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: I would do some investigative work. I wouldn't blindly go
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: out there and look for it. I would knock on
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: people's doors like I look for my tooth, but I
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: would do I would do some investigative work. I think
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: got to figure out what the.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Kind of spots I'd like to hang out at and
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: kind of see.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: But now, my favorite holiday, hands down may Day. I
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: love may Day like you do so may I don't
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: know the origins.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's something with water.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: No, no, I don't know what where the origins come from,
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: but something like festivals and flowers and ship But what
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: we do in my family is my mom started it
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: and she would leave like flowers or cookies or whatever
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: on someone's door. You knock on the door and she
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: would slowly walk away so they would catch her and
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: then bring her in for candy and treats. So what
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: I do is I like make like little bouquets out
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: of like flowers, make my own bouquets with like Mason
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: jars with decorative rocks in them, and then add ladybugs
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: because that's like our family animal, I guess, and uh,
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: and then I just deliver room. On May Day, I
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: always take the day off. And I made Kathy Andy's girlfriend.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: So that's my favorite because it's not like a commercial holiday.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: No one's expecting anything. It's just you know, doing something nice.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: So and the one time I got Mady date my
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: best friend, and she left me a loaf of like
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: extremely garlicyar bread. I was like, this is nice.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: One time. I don't think it was supposed to be
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a maid a.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: But I woke up the next morning and someone at
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: like ten eleven ten eleven PM went to Walmart got
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: a thing of chew, a little thing of milk, and
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: a thing of oreos, and they put it on my
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: front doorstep.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I don't chew. I don't know who did that.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: Uh, And they left their receipt there, and then I
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: text every And this is years ago. I text everybody
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: I know and nobody can confess. I have no fucking clue.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: And to this day, I'm like, who, what a weird
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: combo to drop off to somebody?
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: That was weird. It was weird, Yeah, for sure, Like
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: what yeah, like anybody that would drop off cookies to
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: me knows. I don't. I've never chewed, so like, I
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: don't know, it's weird.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Did you look up the movie with remembers?
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: Yes, it's Gus van Zen.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh no, oh, okay.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: Ninety three, nineteen ninety three, And it makes sense because
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: I really like us. But I was like teenager, so
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: I don't really remember it, but I know it was
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: not good. I need to rewatch it.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'll like it. I feel like Uma Thurman's underrated,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: but she looks like a movie star to.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: Me, like she was one of my favorites. Yeah, she's
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: she's very talented, but this one was like, what is happening?
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: So, Kathy, what are you nostalgic for?
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: Well? I didn't know exactly what to talk about, so
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: but I kind of with Andy, like I love dancing,
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: and I would go to like clubs and then I
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: found raves and I really loved them. But one day
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: I was like, I could do this. So in high school,
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: me and my friend were like, let's just throw rave
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: and we did. But then we saw like the production side,
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: and I still put on events, so it's like that
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: magic kind of went away because it's like I'll go
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: to a even a concert, or i'll party or electronic
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: or whatever, and I'm like, oh, this sounds off. Fix
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: it like you like it kind of like makes it
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: not as fun and so sometimes I just want to
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: go home because of the poor production, which ironically is
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: why I went to a party and I didn't have fun,
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: but I didn't know why. So we're like, we could
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: do this better, and we probably didn't. But I think
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: I saw like it before I even knew I was
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: seeing it.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: But it is though.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: It is fun though, like that process of learning, because
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: it's like it's like when you're still trying to figure
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: it out, that's a lot of fun and that was great,
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: but then once you're actually like, like I listened to
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: the song and I was like, listen to how the
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: high hats are kind of he's opening up just slightly
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: and they're like, I can't hear that, but I can.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: And so now all I can focus is that high hat.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: So it's cool that like both of you, it's like
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: sad that both of you kind of lost that excitement,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: but you've now been able to create that excitement for
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: other people. Yeah. So on some of our episodes when
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: we've had actors like Jason Marsden, a couple other creators
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: and stuff, I've asked them like does filmmaking or TV
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: show making take away the magic from movies? And I
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: don't remember what their answers.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Were, but they could be very profound or it could
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: not be.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So luckily I I don't have any talent, So yeah,
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: what's the talent? Name one?
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: How you are TYPINGO? I love ye?
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, award winning podcast. I'm gonna say it. I'm gonna

• 12:44
  Speaker 2: go like, yeah, okay, perfect. I think that's that's it.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: So leave us a five star review. Let us know
• 12:52
