- Andrea: Hello everyone, welcome back to another Rabbit Trail episode. I'm Andrea and this is my bestie over here. Olivia: This podcast is for entertainment, informational, educational purposes only. Although the hosts are licensed therapists, this podcast is not a substitute for professional mental health services. Listening to this podcast does not create a therapist-client relationship. Olivia. Andrea: and we're about to go full chaos mode again for you. Hopefully, I mean, every episode is chaos, but man, our last episode was... Olivia: Obviously. Andrea: If you are experiencing mental health concerns, please seek help from a qualified mental health professional in your area. If you are in crisis, call or text a suicide prevention line in your country immediately. In the U.S., you can call or text 988 or use online chat at 988lifeline.org. Olivia: Girl, I listened to it this morning. I was like... Andrea: you Yeah, best friend, she listening to it, which is so sweet of her. She's like, it's like getting to hang out with my bestie and her bestie, and she loves it. And she was texting me while she was listening to it today, and she just was like, this is all over the place. I don't know how to handle this. This is amazing. Wait a second, did you just argue? Wait, no, you didn't. You're on the same page. Like, was like, ⁓ it like this play-by-play through our last episode. Olivia: Hey! precious. by the time that an episode comes out, because you do all the editing, which shout out to you, you're amazing. By the time an episode comes out, I've basically forgotten what we've talked about in the rabbit trail episode because I don't do any of the editing. We record, we stop, I'm done. I'm like, peace out y'all. And Andrea like actually does all the other work. So she really, she really was the better half you guys. ⁓ Andrea: Mm-hmm. Olivia: So by the time a rabbit show episode comes out, I'm like, well, I want to listen because I cannot remember what we talked about. So I listened to it and I was like, wow, this one was particularly all over the place. Andrea: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I even took out a nice little chunk in there too. Olivia: You did? ⁓ my gosh, okay. Andrea: There was a chunk, don't know, I don't even know what it was that happened, but I took out a chunk, like a little piece. Olivia: That's hilarious. Andrea: Yeah. I have two things on my mind. The first thing just up before we started recording. When I'm editing photos, I always have just a weird YouTube channel going on, ⁓ and just to keep ⁓ me motivated and laughing. The last commercial came on was a Robin commercial. And for those of you who listen to our episodes. Olivia: Speaking of our last rabbit trail episode that came out... Andrea: I just was like, what is this synchronicity happening here? And it was all about like, how good the Red Robin fries and they should have gone to Red Robin, but they clearly had gone to McDonald's. Olivia: Do see how I look? Did you just see that shiver? That was involuntary. That was me thinking about red Robin fries. Andrea: Cracking up and I really like was about to text you and be like, my god a red Robin commercial just came on and we're about to record But then I was like, no, no, no, no, I'm gonna save this for the rabbit trail. I'm gonna save it Olivia: We love that. Andrea: So I like, what are the chances of that? I have never seen a Red Robin commercial on YouTube, ever. Olivia: Is there even a red robin close to you? Andrea: Yes, there is, yeah. Yeah, we have every chain restaurant, fast food restaurant that you could imagine near me. We have nothing local. Olivia: ⁓ okay. ⁓ that's kind of sad. Andrea: Yeah, we have one brewery that's local to our little area and I hate it. It's not my favorite. Yeah. I know. So it is like P.F. Chang's, Red Robin, Applebee's, Chili's, IHOP, Denny's, Cracker Barrel. Olivia: Don't get me started on Cracker Barrel. That is some drama right there. Andrea: now I feel like I need to know. Is there a story or is this just a fact? Olivia: There was a Cracker Barrel in the town that my grandma and grandpa lived. And my family would go back to see my grandma and grandpa probably at least once a year. And they'd like, oh I should just go to Cracker Barrel. Andrea: Mm-hmm. It is such an old person thing. Olivia: I hated it. I hated everything about it. I hated the little games that they gave. What? Andrea: You didn't like the very overwhelming store with all the overwhelming types of candy and gifts everywhere? Olivia: No, I didn't even like that as a kid. That's like prime time for a kid. I didn't even like it as a kid. I was like, what is this? Like, what? I didn't like the food. I didn't like the vibe. I didn't like the place. I didn't like the people. And I didn't like the stupid little games that they would give the kids that I could never figure out who was too stupid for. It was literally like... Andrea: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Olivia: You want to eat? Well, here's some shit food and a kick in the pants because you're dumb. That's basically what eating at Cracker Barrel felt like for me. Andrea: That's so funny. I never went to Cracker Barrel as a kid, because I grew up in Washington and there wasn't any, right? so I had never been to one until I was in college and went to California or something. Olivia: Right, yeah. Yeah, Cagger Barrel, good times. Yeah, rough. Well, that's okay. I am gonna be, by the time this episode comes out, I will have already done it, but I'm gonna be visiting Andrea down in her hood soon. best believe we're gonna be eating some good food and it will not be chain stuff. As God is my witness. Andrea: ⁓ my goodness. Yeah. ⁓ for sure. We will find a bougie brunch place. have some ideas in my head of places. Yes, this is why, okay, this is not the other thing I wanted to talk about, but now my brain is in this place. strongly believe that breakfast and brunch should be served in tapas style. Olivia: Well, good at all of them. like small servings? Andrea: so that I can try everything. I don't want a full eggs Benedict all the time. I would like a little bit and some pancakes and then I'd also like, you know, lemon ricotta crepes. I would love to also have maybe a little bit of briskets and gravy. Give me like a little plates of everything. Olivia: Yeah, yeah like like a breakfast charcuterie board Andrea: Yeah. Yeah. Olivia: Yeah, tell me something more white female than a brunch or cutery board. Andrea: I actually feel like crying. Olivia: You Andrea: What is happening? Olivia: you good? Do we even cut this out? Andrea: ⁓ ⁓ I'm fine. well apparently, you know, when I am on my menstrual cycle I become emotional about breakfast. Olivia: You I wanna give you a hug so bad right now. Andrea: I'm legitimately crying, Olivia. Olivia: mean, I ⁓ produced good ideas, but wow, great Andrea: Huh. ⁓ Olivia: Okay. Andrea: Okay. I don't know if we should keep talking about that. Olivia: can't of something else. What's on your list? HAH! Andrea: This has never happened. Olivia: That's not your list. Okay, go, go, Andrea: Okay, okay. Okay, we're both new girl watchers, right? Okay, okay. And you've seen, I wanna make an assumption, but you've seen a new girl all the way through, right? Okay, good. So Pepperwood. Olivia: Yes, love New Girl. ⁓ yeah multiple times, yeah. Yes. Yeah, yeah, following. Andrea: Right? Fabulous. Fabulous idea. Jake Johnson is making an actual show based off of Julius Pepperwood. Olivia: What? That's amazing! Andrea: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw an interview today, was just like doing my scrolling or whatever, ⁓ was an interview with Jake Johnson, and he's developing a PI comedy sitcom for whatever, streaming or TV, and he didn't totally say it was Julius Pepperwood, I think the name will be different, but the interviewer was like, so it's Julius Pepperwood, and he was like. Olivia: But you can't say yes because that would probably be like copyright infringement on New Girl, right? Andrea: Yeah, yeah, like he couldn't fully say it. I'm ⁓ stoked. And gonna be in it. He's gonna be starring in it too, I believe, from what I understood. ⁓ And love the Nick Miller character. I think he's adorable, total grumpasaurus, and I fucking love it. Even though Winston is my man, Winston is forever my love, I married my Winston, 100%. Olivia: That's good. Andrea: Nick Miller, and then to be developing a whole other show. ⁓ it's gonna be so good. So I needed to tell someone that would appreciate that. Olivia: That's amazing. I love that. That's amazing. I'm so glad you told me. I don't know if I would have necessarily seen that. That's great. I feel like I if I'm like any character in New Girl and my spouse is any care. OK, so if you married Winston, what character are you most like? Andrea: No. you Gosh, I think that's really hard to say, but I think I am a Jess. Olivia: Ooh, that's rough for you. I am 100 % a Schmidt, and you know it's true. Andrea: I know. Yeah, it is! Olivia: It's true. I am a total Schmidt. There's like, of course I'm Schmidt. And my husband is 100 % a Nick, like 100%, which is so funny because they're like besties, right? But yeah, I'm Schmidt for sure. And he is absolutely Nick. Andrea: Yes. ⁓ yeah. Totally. Yeah, yeah. That's hilarious. It's so true. ⁓ my gosh. Yeah, unfortunately, I think I'm a Jess. I mean, I just cried at the idea of breakfast charcuterie. Olivia: That'll do it. Yeah. Andrea: Yeah, like I would, yeah. Like, I don't know who else I would be. Like, I think it just, that's just is what it is. Olivia: Unbridled optimism. Yeah, I mean, I wondered if you might have said Cici. But I don't know, I feel like overall CC doesn't have like a ton of depth or as much like relatability as maybe some of the other characters. Andrea: Right, right. Like I like Cece. I think the show would not exist without her. And especially when her and Winston get to do their mess around, that brings me so much joy. But it's not, she's almost too, it together a little bit. There are moments, yeah, there are moments where I'm like, ⁓ I can really relate to Cece a lot. But I think just personality wise, I'm much closer to Jess. Olivia: Yeah. She's too normal. Knowledge is power, friend. Andrea: Yeah, yeah. I'm not quite to the extreme level of Jess, but like, if you made Jess bi, I think that would be me. Olivia: Thank God. I think if you made Jess buy and didn't give her caffeine or put her on any medication, it would be like... She feels like she's on uppers, you know what I mean? It's really nits. And I think that's kind of the... Each is kind of intensely in their niche, right? Schmidt's kind of ridiculous because he's so... like, niched, basically, right? And that's what makes him funny. So... Yeah, I get it. Andrea: ⁓ yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Totally. Right. Yeah. One of my all-time favorites and I'm so excited to see more from them. Olivia: Yeah, that is exciting. It's also cool too because all of them seem to be still really good friends and talk pretty regularly. Andrea: Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah, I've listened on and off to the Mess Around podcast, which is, can't remember Cece's actual name, but Cece and Winston, they have a podcast together and they just re-watch episodes and then talk about them and their experience in them. And it's really cute. It's very fun. And sometimes they bring on other cast members or people, like writers of the show. And it's really fun to listen to. I don't listen to it all the time, but it's a fun one to put in there because you're like, ⁓ You guys made genuine friends through this. I love this. Olivia: Yeah, it is terrible. Andrea: Yeah, now I don't want to make this a new girl podcast, but I am curious. Would you ever play? great The American Great American the true American. That's the one would you ever play? Olivia: true American. No, because I couldn't make it past two drinks. tolerance is like not even a tolerance. Andrea: That's fair. That's fair. Olivia: Yeah, I'm done. Like done from the beginning. Okay, I have a super random question for you from my rabbit trail and I keep forgetting to ask you in a rabbit trail episode, which is What is the most granola thing that you do? Andrea: Yeah. interesting question. The most granola thing that I do. There's gotta be something. No off the top of my head. Olivia: The reason why I thought about this is I have a very specific... This is really showing how much of a shman I am. I have a very specific way in which I wash grapes. Andrea: I have seen you wash grapes. No, I've seen you wash, no, I've seen you wash grapes and something else. Strawberries, yes. But okay, I actually, this is so weird that you're bringing this up because I bought blueberries yesterday and I was like about to text you and be like, don't you do a weird thing to blueberries, but it's grapes. Olivia: Strawberries, probably. Yep. I do. Andrea: Okay, remind me what it is. Olivia: I them all off the vine and put them in a container and then I use baking soda and salt. and I like shake them all up and then I rinse them with cold water and it helps take off the like waxiness feel of grapes because otherwise I don't... blueberries? Andrea: That's right. Mm-hmm. I wonder if that would work with Yeah. Olivia: don't think it could hurt. I mean, they're like natural substances. Andrea: Yeah, the only problem is we don't have cold water, so. Olivia: Get a bowl of water and put some ice cubes in it. Andrea: So much work. Olivia: ⁓ my gosh, if you're going to be washing your blueberries specifically, I feel like you can figure out how to get ice cubes out. Andrea: No, fair. That's fair. Olivia: Yeah, but I was, I, the reason, I do this to grapes. Like we get a lot of grapes because my daughter likes grapes, which is fine, whatever. ⁓ so I'm like washing grapes all the time in this way. And I'm like, this is like the most granola thing I think I do. Like it's so bizarre, not bizarre. Andrea: Mm-hmm. I love grapes. Mm. Olivia: not commonplace, I guess I should say. At I haven't seen it be commonplace. I mean like people wash the fruits and vegetables like that's I think fairly standard, although sometimes it freaks me out because my spouse will like go to like cut up celery and just like put in a container to like eat later and I'm like bruh. I know I'm like are you doing? Like you're gonna wash that? And he'll be like ⁓ like you wash celery? And I'm like... Andrea: Yeah, yeah. There's so much dirt in celery. Whoa. Whoa. Sir. Olivia: Okay. Andrea: Hahaha Olivia: Cool. Yeah. what made me think of it. Yeah. It's like, what do you use in essential oil? Like ⁓ me what is it that you do? ⁓ Andrea: the most I mean... I do, okay, I only buy organic eggs. Olivia: Hey. Andrea: Like, prefer the taste of them, which sounds so weird to say, but like, I prefer brown eggs over white eggs. So I did that, that's, yeah. Olivia: Girl, you can't be... literally throwing a ball over home plate when you talk about only loving brown eggs. I'm like not supposed to make a joke. Andrea: mean... Shit. That took me far too long. Olivia: it's okay, i've restrained myself, we can continue okay i think i think i know what you're saying which is like the yolk tastes richer? Andrea: Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah. It's just different. Olivia: I still won't be paying for organic eggs. Couldn't be me. We go through a lot of eggs in my house though too. I mean like we go through like a dozen eggs. We probably go through about two dozen eggs almost a week. Andrea: Yeah. If I know I'm gonna get the eggic, I won't get them. Like I will just keep regular eggs in the fridge. Olivia: egg, egg. That is very real. ⁓ Andrea: But I'm in the zone and I'm like, ⁓ I want eggs, want breakfast burritos, I want eggs, then I will get the nice eggs. And doesn't financially, obviously, like there's, if I'm in an okay place financially, I'm gonna get the good eggs. Olivia: But that's the most granola thing. You don't like wash your eggs or something stupid. Andrea: Well, I think... think I mean the only other thing I can think of is that I do ⁓ mostly Like natural things on my face and my hair for them. Well shampoo and conditioner I don't but I do use like rosemary oil for my hair and I prefer doing like as many supplements as I can. Like I do organic multivitamins over just like regular multivitamins. And I do like psyllium husk powder instead of Metamucil. And I will do like, I take a red bean rice supplement for cholesterol. So, and then I take dandelion root for my brain. So I'm like, I do those things. Yeah. And then I do, there's a specific. Olivia: That's crunchy, girl. Andrea: skincare line that I have fallen in love with that is more organic based But it's working really well and that's kind of why I went that way and it's actually cheaper than all of the like the ordinary brand or the CeraVe brands or things like that, so I'm really liking it and it's it's good molecules and I'm ⁓ all of it So. Olivia: That's a pro tip, how to check them out. I always like changing things up mostly because, know, novelty. Do you ever have that phenomenon Where you are about to like run out of, ⁓ let's say like skincare items, like go ⁓ to get a replacement and then either. ⁓ Andrea: Yeah. Yeah. Olivia: Let's say you like don't really get it replaced, but you see something else you want to like you like or you want to try or you're to switch it up or try a different kind or whatever. So you get it. Why is it the hardest thing to not just like immediately use it and use out the one that's about to run out? Andrea: Mm hmm. Yeah. I don't know. It just is. Olivia: It's like you're damned if you do damned if you don't, because if you wait too long to get a replacement, you like run out, run out. And then you're kind of like up a creek and, or you like think ahead enough that you're like, okay, it's about to run out. I'm going to get a replacement. And then you get a replacement and you're like so excited about the replacement that you replace it early. Andrea: Right. Mm hmm. Olivia: why? Andrea: I ⁓ to lean on side of like, ⁓ I too long to get my replacement. I think I tend to do that more often than go too early. But it depends on what it is. Like, there are some things. Yeah. ⁓ Olivia: I'm just not a good judge. You know, like, I'll be like, ⁓ like, this is almost out. And it's like, you know, has like 20 more uses. And I'm like, well, cool. ⁓ But that's part of it. Andrea: Yeah, I know. Skincare in particular I feel like is really hard to judge because some creams are heavier than other creams. Olivia: You also like, you can't see how much generally is in a container and it's a pump typically. So it's like, well, supposed to go off of the weight. Like, what am I a scale? No. Andrea: Yes. ⁓ it drives me bananas. Yeah. Yeah, like I do use like facial sunscreen in the morning. That's probably the one non-organic facial face care, skincare that I use. like, it's just a solid white bottle. And I don't know until I'm squeezing it and it's like, nothing's coming out. Olivia: Well, that's the problem is like when it is in a pump and it's on the counter, you're not like lifting it up so you don't get the register of the weight. So you're just like pumping and dumping. Andrea: Hmm Right, Olivia: no idea when it's about to run out. You know? Andrea: Yeah. ⁓ another crunchy thing that I do. Olivia: See, you already have more crunchy things than I do. Andrea: See, now I'm thinking about it though, and it's just flowing. ⁓ I do use a Gua Sha. Olivia: Good. What is it? What's the next thing? Andrea: Do know what that is? Olivia: Yeah, yes, I know what it is. That's why I'm rolling my eyes. The fat, insert fattest eye roll. Okay. Andrea: don't use it daily, I use it when I feel like it. Olivia: Do you feel like it does anything? Andrea: ⁓ you know, I'll be honest. like to use it when I have a headache because I keep it cool. And does like when, I get a lot of like the tension, like optic or whatever those are called. The migraines that are like, yeah, like pretty extreme ones. And it does feel really nice with some facial oil to like. Olivia: the ones at the front. Andrea: or like lavender oil to kind of rub. And like, I like that type of pressure. So like, yes, does something for me because I'm using it for a specific purpose. But I think if I was just using it daily, ⁓ I I have no idea. Olivia: Reminds me of like, were talking about the vibrating plates like forever ago. And then now there's this and then it me think about the dry brushing. Have you seen about that? Andrea: No? Is that like on the skin? Olivia: Yeah. Mm-hmm. You're like supposed to improve circulation or whatever. Yeah. Yeah, right? I'm like, that's uncomfortable. Andrea: We've already talked about lotion in here and how I feel about lotion. It took, I like oil. Olivia: Yeah. but okay, but facial oil is different? See, to me that's worse because it like, to me oil feels worse because it takes longer to absorb. So I feel like I'm like getting it on everything. Andrea: Oil I can handle. I think I have very dry skin and so it does, it soaks in very fast for me that I don't, it doesn't linger. Like I'm not, I'm not oily. I think that is, I think since living here in Arizona, I'm not oily, but when I'm in Washington, I'm oily. Olivia: Huh. Hmm. Interesting. Andrea: Yeah. So I know wherever I move next, I'm probably gonna have to change skin care again. So. Olivia: Hey, it'll be novel, so it'll be exciting anyways. Andrea: Exactly, exactly. Okay, this is itching at me, so I'm rabbit trailing. We previously, before this rabbit trail episode, recorded another episode and you resisted the urge to talk about a giraffe? Olivia: You Mmm. I'm sorry, I'm getting distracted. I'm in the phase of like losing a bunch of hair, you know those phases? And so like loose hair is one of my... ⁓ that and pickles. Anyways, no, actually I really should be referencing Red Robin French Fries because that gave me an involuntarily like physical shiver. Andrea: Yeah. We're not talking about that. You Olivia: Forget what context it came up in. for some reason in my mind, what has been playing a lot this week is the like, not a specific video or image, but like the general image of a giraffe ⁓ birth. Because, I like giraffes. I think they're cool because they look so awkward and funny and weird. And they're just like... Andrea: Mm-hmm. How have they survived? Yeah. Olivia: What's the point? Yeah, like exactly. Exactly. I'm like, what is the point of you? Amazing. Absolutely. You're a star. Slay. Like, love it. Right? Giraffes. They're so cool. Stupid neck. I don't know. Great. Andrea: Mm-hmm. Yeah. I love it, I'm on board. Olivia: They literally just like, just for the sake of this like mental picture, are you gonna? They basically just like poop out a child. And from that height, they're literally like, best of luck, stand up now. Could you imagine? Andrea: That's insane to think about. Olivia: That's what I'm saying. Like I birth a child and like them and me, we are tied friend. can't ⁓ diddly for themselves. Like absolutely anything for themselves. ⁓ literally giraffe moms just like pop out a giraffe like ⁓ ya. Like high to gravity for me on the way down. Time to stand. Like. Andrea: That's insane. No. Insane. Olivia: Could you imagine? So just like the idea of just like getting dropped into life, like a baby giraffe has just been like playing in my mind for some reason this week. And it came up specifically for a reason this week and I can't remember what it was, but just like so bizarre. Andrea: Yeah. Yeah. That's so weird. Do you want to hear a weird piece of Andrea trivia? Olivia: Sure, always. Andrea: My mom likes to tell me the story of what was on the television when I was being born. Can you guess what it was? Olivia: animal planet. Andrea: Giraffes giving birth. Olivia: That's so funny. Just the idea of having a TV on while I'm giving birth is also wild. Andrea: you Isn't that weird? Now to clarify, I do not know if the TV was on physically during pushing me out. I don't know if maybe it was just on while she was in labor, because she was in labor for a really long time with me. So it could have just been that. But apparently that was on the TV. Olivia: That's weird. I What's a- okay, but what's a really long time? Andrea: Honestly, I couldn't tell you. I want to say it was like 12 hours or something, but I could be very off. have any perspective here, ma'am. Olivia: not that... Andrea: I was also two and a half weeks late, so... Olivia: ⁓ Well, ⁓ this isn't really a competition I want to win because this is not a competition worth winning. for point of comparison, I was in labor for 40 hours. ⁓ It's a long time. I was like, okay, like what's a long time? Because usually like first kids are longer. You're like 12 hours. I'm like flip desk. Andrea: Yeah. That's insane. Yeah. Mm. I could, I also could be wrong, so. I was, I was the one being birthed, so I have no memories. ⁓ Olivia: Yeah, you had no life skills at all. Andrea: You know, I wasn't being dropped from six feet and being told to walk Olivia: Yeah, just like... Andrea: God, I can't imagine. Olivia: Okay, Like, that's what, like the whole giraffe existence has gotta be wild. You know? Like, what? Andrea: Yeah. Like, how have they existed through evolution? What purpose? Olivia: But I know, it feels like inevitably it's going to be like, oh, giraffes are going to be going extinct and like save the giraffes. And I will I will save I will save the giraffes, my friends. I will be saving them. But it doesn't make sense, especially like in the general climates in which they live. Andrea: It's insane. Yeah. I can see that. I love that. No. Olivia: Like get that they can reach higher places than other animals and so in that way maybe they've been able to survive, but generally the climates in which they're living, there's not a lot of things that are that tall? Andrea: Now they are an enigma. Olivia: Yeah. Maybe that's like, maybe that's one of the crunchiest things about being on planet Earth. It's just giraffes that they exist. Because they make no sense. Andrea: You know, if a giraffe was a human parent, I think that they would be a crunchy parent. Olivia: feel like there's a fine line. I feel like they would either be the crunchiest parent or they'd be like the most like redneck parent like Andrea: Ha Olivia: redneck, yeah, like, ⁓ literally like in a half broken lawn chair outside their trailer with like a cigarette in one hand and like a beer in another, ⁓ like an American flag that looks like as as sin. ⁓ Like the pair that they are, ⁓ or super crunchy. I don't know why that's the fine line. It's either that or that. But it, yeah. Andrea: Give birth, on! That's hilarious. ⁓ my gosh. That's so true. It's like non, like anti-vaxxer crunchy, is what I'm imagining. Olivia: I'm imagining the like, getter done, like ⁓ kind of like kind of crunchy like anti system ⁓ government kind of like conspiracy theory. my gosh. Okay. ⁓ Speaking we haven't talked about this and this episode will be coming out a lot later, Artemis launch super cool. Andrea: Mm-hmm. ⁓ that's hilarious. I love this. Mm-hmm. Yep. Olivia: Um, so fun watching it with my daughter. Um, it will always be wild to me how we can like go to space and like go around the moon and like, that will never make sense on my brain. Um, but why we were talking about conspiracy theories, I saw this like short of a scientist talking about like why he thinks like the moon landing was real. Andrea: Yeah. Mmm. Yeah. Olivia: And it just it just is making me laugh because I'm like. Out of all the things... to not believe? Why does it matter if we were to the moon or not? Like, I'm not asking you to believe in God. You know what I mean? What purpose does it serve to not think that we were at the, like that we made it to the moon? Andrea: Mm-hmm. Right, right, yeah. I love the moon conspiracies. I think it's Like it is one of the best American lore that exists in our country. That's like whether or not we went to the moon, cracks me up. Olivia: Yeah, it makes me really curious that if that narrative is present at all in other countries... Andrea: Mmm. Ooh, good question. If you're listening from another country, us, do you believe that the US went to the moon? Olivia: Right. Because we're the only ones that have landed. Andrea: curious. Tell me what y'all think. ⁓ Olivia: but yeah, just- like, the video just really made me laugh but it was like, in relation to the artemis launch and like, all this and people were like, ⁓ they launched on april 1st, like, think about all the conspiracy theories that are gonna come out and i'm like, ⁓ my gosh, you all, like, we landed on the moon! what are you talking about? Andrea: Yeah. hilarious yeah that that did cross my mind when I saw that it was April 1st I was like ⁓ my gosh what the heck but Olivia: Yeah, but scientists don't care about that. There's so many things that they need, like climate, atmosphere, weather-wise to be able to launch. like the day does not matter, truly. Andrea: No. No. Yeah, yeah. No, exactly. Like it could have been that day. It could have been the next day. Like at any moment. That's so funny. I don't know why I want to say like, speaking of bringing things back around, because I don't think we've talked about space and the moon. Olivia: Yeah. Yeah. Well, we just talked about orbiting the moon. There you go. Back around. Andrea: There we go, that's the thing. Quick update, because we haven't updated everyone on my 5K. Olivia: I was gonna, yes, how was your 5k, Andrea? Andrea: I did it. I ran two miles without walking and then walk ran the last half. It was great. It was hot. ⁓ also, no, were both like in the middle of the pack of both of our age groups, which I was like really impressed with myself about. I was like, okay, that's not bad. But the race ⁓ was as flat. Reasonable. We're in Arizona. We expected it to be flat. Olivia: Did your mom win? Andrea: Tell me why. There were multiple hills. Olivia: Tell me why. Andrea: Pissed. I was pissed. Olivia: Ain't nothin' Yeah, that's fair. That's what you would expect if you did like a 5K in Washington. Andrea: this. 100 % yep, nope hills hills in this park we were at but it also you know I saw a couple people that I was like damn people really like running like there was a woman that there was like there was a woman that was running in the 10k and she was pushing someone in a regular wheelchair not even like a sport wheelchair a regular wheelchair doing the 10K. And every time I saw her, she was legitimately running. And I was like, nope, couldn't be arsed. Sorry. Olivia: I don't know my brain is so dumb. I like, I guarantee you she was listening to music, it was like Fellowship of the Ring. Because that's the only kind of loyalty somebody would have to ⁓ push person. ⁓ Just Sam Frodo, like just the full commit. ⁓ Andrea: That's incredible. Perfect. ⁓ my gosh. The other thing I was thinking of was like the person in the wheelchair can just because they were registered for the race, they had a bib thing and everything. They're going around being like, I've done a fight. I've done a 10K and people are like, yeah, good. Olivia: Also, like double layer of follow up on last podcast. Sons, I'm gonna be seeing you. Should I bring my running shoes? Should we have our race? Andrea: Mmm. I was going to ask you that and I have had a couple of text messages that say, when is the race happening? So. Olivia: ehhhh? Although I'm nervous to do it there because like it's hot and not used to the climate, like it would be the same if you did it here because you could say you're not used to the climate. have an advantage on me. Andrea: I would say... ⁓ yeah. It's up to you. We can do it. It is going to be hot. Olivia: Yeah, should we do it before or after our brunch? Andrea: Ooh, probably before. I don't wanna puke. I cry if we have breakfast charcuterie. Olivia: Yeah, are you gonna cry if I win? Andrea: ⁓ my goodness. we should probably wrap this up for today or else we're going to end up talking for hours as we usually want to. ⁓ I know you have a guest in your house and I am sweating and to eat.
