TV SHOW AND DOCUMENTARY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE WOMAN OVER 50 · Uncluttered and Unfiltered: The Podcast For Women Over 50

• 0:04
  Welcome to Uncluttered and Unfiltered, the podcast urging
• 0:08
  you to let it go and don't look back, with nationally acclaimed
• 0:12
  professional organizer Christine Stone and self-proclaimed Hot
• 0:17
  Damn Mess radio and TV personality Eden Kendall.
• 0:25
  Welcome everybody to UNCLUTTERED and Unfiltered with Eden and
• 0:28
  Christine. And we have a episode today
• 0:30
  that's a little bit different. It's a time of year when we have
• 0:34
  some downtime. We might want to do a little TV
• 0:37
  watching or movie watching. So we're going to talk about
• 0:41
  some things that we are enjoying watching, or maybe we watched
• 0:44
  and we didn't enjoy so much and we can save you some time.
• 0:47
  Yes, and being an empty nester, you need something to fill your
• 0:51
  time around during the holidays. If you're not super super busy
• 0:55
  or you just want time to relax at the end of the crazy day, you
• 0:58
  just want to chill out and watch something that will make you
• 1:02
  feel good. Or if you're like Christine and
• 1:04
  you've been watching Yellowstone, it's over, it
• 1:06
  ended, and now you're just devastated and need something to
• 1:09
  fill the void. So whatever your situation is,
• 1:13
  we're going to get to that very shortly.
• 1:14
  But you had a good little break between the last time you and I
• 1:18
  spoke. Yes, I was in Miami for my in
• 1:21
  laws 65th wedding anniversary. 55 years.
• 1:26
  Wow. Yeah, so we all went down and
• 1:29
  they had a party. They.
• 1:30
  Had a run, huh? They've got, they're still
• 1:32
  going. They're still going, still 65
• 1:35
  years. So that's impressive in my
• 1:38
  opinion, so. It's very impressive and we are
• 1:40
  inching ever closer to Christmas and Hanukkah and the holiday
• 1:44
  season. So I thought I would share with
• 1:47
  you before we get into our topic today, an article that I saw
• 1:50
  from the Chicago Sun. And this was a journalist that
• 1:55
  wrote this about her kids and it's directed toward her parents
• 2:00
  who all of the grandparents involved.
• 2:02
  So I know last week we talked a little bit about don't mourn the
• 2:06
  fact that you don't yet or may never have grandkids.
• 2:09
  Today, we're just going to talk about if you do have grandkids,
• 2:12
  here's what at least this one mom says.
• 2:14
  Please don't buy them for Christmas.
• 2:17
  She. Gives you a list and she tells
• 2:19
  you why exactly for each one. The first thing in the list?
• 2:22
  Anything alive because you know what happens when things are
• 2:26
  alive? They die.
• 2:28
  So please do not gift my child anything that is alive or could
• 2:33
  potentially give us E coli when we clean its cage.
• 2:36
  But see, I think don't give them anything alive because then the
• 2:39
  parents end up taking care of it, not the kids.
• 2:42
  I promise I'll walk the dog, I'll feed the dog and then they
• 2:45
  never do and you end up taking care of it if the.
• 2:47
  Parents want to. That's different A.
• 2:49
  Pet into the life which I love. Because.
• 2:53
  I always had pets, hamsters but not the grandparents junk
• 2:59
  stocking stuffer that is really just cheap pieces of junk.
• 3:02
  Do you know anyone who's also against those types of gifts?
• 3:05
  Oh, I wonder. Let's see.
• 3:07
  Any toy that hurts when I accidentally step on it with
• 3:10
  bare feet. That would be Legos.
• 3:11
  That would be Legos. Barbie doll accessories, those
• 3:15
  little pointy shoes. Yeah, I agree with that.
• 3:19
  Any toy without an off button. And to go a step further, any
• 3:24
  toy with an off button that doesn't turn off immediately
• 3:27
  when you push it. See I have a grandson so IA 100%
• 3:32
  agree with that because when me and my husband are there we
• 3:37
  record things to have him listen to and my husband thinks it's
• 3:41
  funny to just play it over and over again.
• 3:44
  I'm like is there an off button on?
• 3:48
  So yes, I agree with that. And toys, and I don't
• 3:52
  necessarily agree with this one, toys that require me to play it
• 3:56
  with them. I think that it's nice to get
• 3:59
  down on your hands and knees and have interaction, but it is a
• 4:02
  gift you give your child if it is something they can go off and
• 4:05
  work on their own to give the gift of free time to the.
• 4:08
  Parents. Yeah, I like that too.
• 4:10
  I thought those were interesting, something that I
• 4:13
  can act on right now, but I'll try to keep that in mind if I'm
• 4:16
  ever in a situation where I have a grandchild to buy something
• 4:19
  for. So we said we wanted to talk
• 4:21
  about some TV shows that we have been enjoying. 01 more thing.
• 4:26
  Very quickly, you all who are part of our Ladies only Facebook
• 4:29
  group were asked by Christine to contribute things you need help
• 4:34
  with organizationally and that is in a future episode.
• 4:37
  So this is not that episode, but it is coming.
• 4:40
  It's coming because January is good organized months, so get
• 4:43
  ready ladies. All right, so let's talk about
• 4:45
  some things that we have been watching, starting with should
• 4:49
  we do some documentaries first? Because that's a whole category.
• 4:52
  You and I both love a good documentary.
• 4:54
  I love a documentary. I love it, I love it so much.
• 4:58
  The one that we watched most recently was Yacht Rock.
• 5:02
  Which I have not watched yet and I'm dying to watch it.
• 5:06
  Delightful. It is all about the music.
• 5:09
  That was the phrase Yacht rock was actually coined by these
• 5:15
  Youtubers who were doing a kind of a sketch comedy series.
• 5:18
  I didn't know this. And it is all of those songs
• 5:21
  from the 70s and 80s that are soft rock.
• 5:24
  Kenny Loggins. Kenny Loggins, he was on this
• 5:27
  documentary. He was fantastic.
• 5:28
  There's just a lot on this documentary to digest.
• 5:32
  My husband and I both absolutely adored this documentary.
• 5:35
  Have you been to the Yacht Rock review?
• 5:38
  Yes, OK. So band, they're in it.
• 5:40
  Yeah, they they show them in it. But unfortunately for them, they
• 5:44
  don't ever say their name. But you see scenes, they show
• 5:47
  another yacht rock band because there are yacht rock bands all
• 5:50
  over the place. It's just like Yacht Rock Review
• 5:52
  comes to town. So this other yacht rock band
• 5:56
  called Yachtly Crew. Oh I haven't seen them.
• 5:59
  I just went to the rock reviews. Unbelievable we've.
• 6:03
  Seen them a few. Times I've only seen once.
• 6:06
  Yeah, that that is just one iteration of these many bands
• 6:09
  that are out there that do all of these covers and they're we
• 6:13
  love them, but they were in this documentary as well.
• 6:16
  So what about you? What?
• 6:17
  Are you love? I was telling you a few that you
• 6:19
  hadn't heard of yet. And that's the thing.
• 6:22
  I love watching documentaries that no one has really talked
• 6:25
  about or you don't really know the person that well, so you're
• 6:29
  dying to know more about them. And the first one that I
• 6:33
  absolutely loved was the Tanya Tucker, The Return of Tanya
• 6:38
  Tucker featuring Brandi Carlisle.
• 6:41
  And I have to tell you a little bit what this is about.
• 6:44
  Decades after Tanya Tucker slipped from the spotlight,
• 6:47
  music star Brandi Carlisle takes it upon herself to write an
• 6:51
  entire album for her hero based on Tanya's extraordinary life
• 6:56
  spraying the greatest comeback in country music history.
• 7:00
  When I tell you this was such a surprise Eyes unbelievably
• 7:05
  amazing documentary, not only because I love Tanya Tucker.
• 7:09
  Delta Dawn. What's that?
• 7:12
  Yeah, okay. They go through her whole life
• 7:16
  as well as what she's doing now, how she is now, all what Brandy
• 7:23
  Carla has the patience of a St. That's all I'm going to say.
• 7:27
  But it's sparked it. She created a Grammy winning hit
• 7:31
  for her. All these years later.
• 7:33
  It's just a much watched show if you love those two people like I
• 7:39
  do. All right.
• 7:41
  And there are some other documentaries on your radar.
• 7:43
  I think too, that what else have you?
• 7:45
  I saw the one about Don McClain, and it's called The Day the
• 7:49
  Music Died. The story of Don Mcclain's
• 7:51
  making of American Pie. Oh my gosh, that was so good.
• 7:56
  It tells you verse by verse how he came up with each verse, what
• 8:02
  was going on in the world, what was going on in his life, his
• 8:07
  rise to fame. It is unbelievable.
• 8:11
  Another favorite? I thought when I was a little
• 8:14
  girl my sister had the Brady Bunch album and they covered
• 8:17
  American Pie. It was a 2 minute version of
• 8:19
  American Pie, so for years I thought that was a Brady Bunch
• 8:22
  song. Really.
• 8:24
  I mean, I was very little, I was very young.
• 8:27
  And later I found out that it was actually a really long song
• 8:33
  A. Lot of the DJ's love that song
• 8:35
  because they could go to the bathroom, they could get other
• 8:38
  stuff done. And I, it just was one of my
• 8:41
  favorite songs of all time. And I love that people still
• 8:44
  debate about it now, what it was really about.
• 8:47
  And so when you watch this, you finally really know how he
• 8:51
  talked about the day the music died, what it meant.
• 8:53
  And a lot of it isn't what you think, which is why I thought it
• 8:56
  was fascinating. That does sound fascinating.
• 8:58
  Why was it? I've been a DJ in just about
• 9:00
  every music format and did several years in classic rock,
• 9:03
  and three songs that you need who use the bathroom are
• 9:07
  American Pie in A God of De Vita by Iron Butterfly and Stairway
• 9:12
  to Heaven. Oh yes, stairway to heaven.
• 9:14
  For sure three. Yeah, for sure.
• 9:16
  So music documentaries, both you and I love them.
• 9:19
  I. Love, I think part of what I
• 9:22
  love and I think everyone that's listened for a couple years now,
• 9:27
  I love knowing a person's back story.
• 9:29
  I I don't like just jumping Fast forward to what's going on
• 9:33
  today. I feel like everyone's back
• 9:36
  story is the reason they are the way they are today, and so I
• 9:41
  love documentaries for that reason.
• 9:43
  Have you seen the one? It's two parts.
• 9:44
  The Eagles. No.
• 9:46
  OK, that it's been a few years since that came out.
• 9:49
  Glenn Frey was still alive. It's a really good documentary,
• 9:52
  one of the best. It even has full nudity.
• 9:56
  Wow. It's just female frontal nudity
• 9:58
  now. Because they used clips that
• 10:00
  they had these clips for years. They had this, these videos that
• 10:03
  they've unearthed for years. It is such a great spicy
• 10:09
  documentary. Lots of dirt.
• 10:11
  That's going to be next on my list.
• 10:13
  I love the Eagles. I also watch documentaries that
• 10:18
  I may not even really know much about him, like Charlie
• 10:21
  Trotter's. I used to live in Chicago years
• 10:23
  and years ago, and I knew about Charlie Trotter's, the
• 10:27
  restaurant, because it was so famous.
• 10:29
  People waited years to get a reservation.
• 10:32
  People would fly in from Europe just to go there.
• 10:35
  He was a very famous chef. So I'm like, OK, I'll watch it.
• 10:40
  Oh my gosh, it was amazing. You learn every little part of
• 10:47
  his childhood what made him who he was.
• 10:50
  He was a guy who just started out traveling through Europe
• 10:55
  learning about cooking. And.
• 10:57
  Yeah, but learning about it, not really thinking he was going to
• 11:00
  do anything with it. And he really became really good
• 11:05
  at it and then started a restaurant.
• 11:07
  And then I can't remember because it was a while ago that
• 11:10
  I watched it. But it shows the rise and fall
• 11:14
  though, because his restaurant was so successful and he was
• 11:19
  jealous when anyone left him or started their own restaurant and
• 11:24
  left him and he couldn't let it go, like it would get under his
• 11:29
  skin. And then they showed that he had
• 11:31
  some mental problems and it really got deep into it.
• 11:36
  Of course, the restaurant closed because of that and he died
• 11:40
  early, very young. And so I just like things that I
• 11:44
  may know a little bit about them, but not really a lot.
• 11:48
  So anyway, those are some of my most recent watches.
• 11:53
  There's a show that I just finished with.
• 11:56
  Oh gosh, why is it escaping me? Is it because I'm 58 years old
• 12:01
  and I lose all my nouns, which is actually something that they
• 12:04
  talk about in this particular show.
• 12:05
  It's called Man on the Inside. It's.
• 12:07
  Dancing. I haven't seen that.
• 12:08
  Yeah, I heard it's good. It's.
• 12:10
  Fantastic. Ted Danson plays a widower who
• 12:15
  is really looking for some purpose.
• 12:16
  So he answers an ad from a private detective who is looking
• 12:20
  for a senior citizen who is fairly good on contraptions and
• 12:24
  gadgets. Because there is needs to be a
• 12:25
  little bit of surveillance going on and this person's going to
• 12:28
  need to check into a retirement community.
• 12:31
  And it goes so much deeper than that because there has been some
• 12:34
  theft there. And it goes so much deeper than
• 12:36
  that because there's a whole piece of it that deals with
• 12:40
  memory, care and some friendships and relationships.
• 12:44
  It's beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
• 12:48
  I can't wait to watch it. Delightful.
• 12:49
  I promise you love it. The other show I watched, that
• 12:53
  was something I was not planning to watch, but I heard that it
• 12:57
  was much more substantial than it it gave the appearance of
• 13:01
  being, and that was the real Full Monty.
• 13:05
  This. Was a show on Fox, I want to say
• 13:09
  and Anthony, what's his like? Anthony Anderson from Blackish,
• 13:13
  he put together this because I guess they had been doing it in
• 13:16
  Europe where like in the movie The Real Full Monty, that means
• 13:19
  when you are doing a male striptease, you show everything
• 13:22
  full frontal that for a moment. And so the idea behind it was
• 13:26
  who is willing to be this embarrassed and put themselves
• 13:31
  out there to draw attention to men's health and wouldn't you go
• 13:36
  get a check up and be a little bit embarrassed?
• 13:38
  If we can do this, you can do that.
• 13:41
  Each person involved, and there were some different celebrities
• 13:43
  involved, had some kind of relationship to cancer,
• 13:48
  including, and I don't know if you've seen this, and I don't
• 13:51
  think this is a spoiler at this point because he was on the
• 13:53
  cover of People magazine last week, James van der Beek.
• 13:56
  Oh yeah, I think everyone knows that.
• 13:57
  So he has colorectal cancer and so he was one of the dancers and
• 14:03
  they are. It's just a really well done
• 14:05
  show. I don't know if you could keep
• 14:07
  your man watching it for long enough, but I liked watching it
• 14:11
  because we finally got to that point where I've convinced my
• 14:13
  husband it is important to go get a check.
• 14:16
  Yeah, definitely after. All these many years, he finally
• 14:20
  did. And so it's.
• 14:21
  Just great. It's important.
• 14:22
  To know that there's that kind of thing out there.
• 14:24
  So if you happen to see that, instead of brushing it off
• 14:27
  immediately, if you know somebody who maybe needs to hear
• 14:29
  about it, it's a good show. Well, of course we're total
• 14:34
  opposites. Yes, we are.
• 14:35
  So I couldn't do a show on what I'm watching without mentioning
• 14:38
  Yellowstone. Not for me, but yes, I know you
• 14:41
  love. It I am obsessed everyone now I
• 14:45
  will be honest this last season not so much.
• 14:48
  Loving it. I just finished the very last
• 14:51
  one so I'm not going to spoil alert anything because it just
• 14:54
  aired last night. I just watched it 6:00 AM this
• 14:56
  morning. I don't love the last season.
• 15:00
  I'm I was really disappointed and did I thought there was so
• 15:02
  much more they could have done with it.
• 15:04
  They're doing a spin off though, right?
• 15:06
  I don't, I heard that but it won't be the same, let's just
• 15:10
  say that. But I'm able to live with that
• 15:14
  because of my new favorite show, I think, since The Sopranos.
• 15:19
  Land Man, Absolutely. It's another Taylor Sheridan
• 15:25
  show called Land Man with Billy Bob Thornton.
• 15:28
  Oh yes, and I feel like he is like the Tony Soprano character.
• 15:33
  Like you're not supposed to love him, but you're so in love with
• 15:37
  him. And.
• 15:39
  It is fascinating because actually it's all older actors.
• 15:44
  It's Billy Bob Thornton, Demi Moore, Jon Hamm, Ali Larder.
• 15:49
  It's people who have made a comeback and yeah, there are
• 15:53
  some younger characters in it as well.
• 15:55
  But I went to school in Fort Worth so I am fascinated by
• 15:59
  anything Texas and I used to love the show Dallas and it has
• 16:02
  that same dallasy feel, but it is a must watch.
• 16:09
  So I think that helped the blow of Yellowstone ending because I
• 16:14
  it's on right after. So I can live now and breathe
• 16:18
  now. Good.
• 16:19
  The other one though that you watched and I didn't see his
• 16:21
  lioness, is that a series or is that a movie?
• 16:24
  Another Taylor Sheridan favorite?
• 16:27
  No, it's the series he's. The producer, director, right?
• 16:30
  Is that his role? He's the writer.
• 16:32
  OK, the show. He writes in all of them.
• 16:34
  He makes an appearance which a lot of people don't know.
• 16:37
  Especially in season 5 of Yellowstone, he was in it a lot.
• 16:41
  So he shows up in everything he creates.
• 16:45
  It's really good with Nicole Kim and it's a series.
• 16:48
  And Zoe Saldana. Saldana, she's amazing too.
• 16:53
  It's really good. It reminds me of what was that
• 16:55
  Claire Dane show? Homeland, It's like that.
• 16:58
  It's like Homeland, they're in the CIA, blah, blah, blah.
• 17:02
  And it's very good too. It's a great show.
• 17:05
  I guess I'm just a huge Taylor Sheridan fan.
• 17:07
  A lot. Of people really are.
• 17:09
  The only experience I had is I did try more than once,
• 17:13
  including on my long flight to Austria, Australia, to get into
• 17:17
  Yellowstone, and I just couldn't.
• 17:19
  So everybody is different. I don't know why.
• 17:22
  I totally see the appeal. I just, it's not for me.
• 17:24
  I'm right now loving the new Star Wars skeleton crew.
• 17:28
  So if you need to take a page out of why I don't have all of
• 17:32
  the same passions you do, it's because I like Marvel, I like
• 17:35
  Star Wars. Never saw one.
• 17:37
  Never have seen Star Wars ever, let alone any.
• 17:42
  And my son-in-law is a Star Wars fanatic.
• 17:45
  So is my husband. Ask him if he's watching
• 17:47
  Skeleton Crew. Oh, I'm the best one.
• 17:49
  I'm. Sure he is.
• 17:49
  I don't even need to ask. He's obsessed, I mean.
• 17:53
  It is the best one they've done, yeah.
• 17:55
  I've seen couple batmans like back in the day a long time ago
• 18:00
  but that's about it. So Jude Law is in this.
• 18:02
  I do love him. And I turned to my husband the
• 18:05
  other night while we were watching and I said, I have to
• 18:07
  tell you something just in case you don't know.
• 18:10
  And he said what? And I said that is a beautiful
• 18:13
  man, just because I feel like some men don't know a beautiful
• 18:17
  man when they see him. And Jude Law is a beautiful.
• 18:22
  I fell in love with him in The Talented Mr. Ripley.
• 18:25
  I just thought he was. By the holiday, he.
• 18:28
  Was Oh yeah, he's just got charisma.
• 18:32
  Yes, he's yeah, he. I love juga.
• 18:34
  Mischievous. Twinkle, I love him.
• 18:37
  He has a mischievous twinkle always brewing in his eye and
• 18:41
  then it's he and these 4 great kids as the stars.
• 18:44
  So if you are the kind of person who loves watching with your
• 18:47
  family, this is a great show. Skeleton Crew Disney Plus.
• 18:50
  Let's see, what else are we watching?
• 18:52
  I wrote down that I wanted to tell you about my dream and now
• 18:55
  I have to definitely tell you based on something you just said
• 18:58
  earlier. But I'm going to put that
• 18:59
  towards the end. So what else?
• 19:01
  Let's get to the later dater. Yeah.
• 19:04
  That, you say, is better than the Golden Bachelor for me.
• 20:51
  For me. OK, tell everyone that first.
• 20:53
  Of all, I was not going to watch it at all.
• 20:55
  This is the anyway the on Netflix.
• 20:58
  I definitely was like, I'm not doing this.
• 21:01
  And then one day I'm like they when you get on Netflix and they
• 21:06
  give you a little preview when you're scrolling through.
• 21:09
  And I said, OK, now I'm interested.
• 21:12
  So I started with Episode 1, and I'll tell you why I like it
• 21:17
  better. First of all, their families are
• 21:19
  there all the time because the kids are trying to help the
• 21:22
  parents date in this new world of technology and stuff.
• 21:26
  And they have a woman who helps them, who is a professional with
• 21:32
  dating, and she tells them what they're doing wrong, how they
• 21:35
  can improve it, that she works with the ladies to let them, you
• 21:39
  and the men both. What can create a better bond on
• 21:43
  a first date, a second date, whatever.
• 21:47
  I find it fascinating because they really actually seem like
• 21:51
  it's definitely not scripted. It seems more real.
• 21:55
  They let their hair down more. They act like themselves because
• 21:59
  in some of them they don't look, not look physically, they don't.
• 22:03
  They're having a hard time dating again.
• 22:06
  Yeah, they're having a really hard time presenting themselves
• 22:10
  and that you also get to hear a lot more of their back story.
• 22:14
  And it's not all about being a widow.
• 22:16
  Some people like one woman, she is a widow, but she dated a
• 22:20
  famous rock guitarist back in the day and she it was her true
• 22:25
  love. And it just, I found it more
• 22:28
  realistic maybe even though it probably isn't, but it just
• 22:31
  appeared that way. And my the quote that I got from
• 22:35
  this that was the has stuck with me is OK from that show is I
• 22:41
  don't want to be a nurse or a purse.
• 22:45
  I don't want to be a nurse or a purse.
• 22:49
  I love that quote. I love it because I think a lot
• 22:53
  of women when they date later, if they have money, they don't
• 22:57
  want to just be the sugar Mama that you're like supporting
• 23:00
  someone. And if a lot of times, women
• 23:04
  take care of men. Did you see the documentary on
• 23:07
  the villages? No, but I have to see that so.
• 23:10
  The Villages for those who are not in Florida, I tend to think
• 23:14
  that it's probably everyone knows about it, but if you
• 23:16
  don't, it is a retirement community that is for us.
• 23:19
  It's just about an hour, two hours away, maybe 2 1/2.
• 23:21
  And they did a documentary and there was this one bachelor
• 23:26
  widower, whatever that was, playing that game where he was
• 23:29
  just looking for a sugar Mama. Oh yeah.
• 23:32
  I believe that. And so that is prevalent in that
• 23:35
  age category for sure, because the men really have the upper
• 23:38
  hand. They do.
• 23:40
  There are so few of them. There are so few men compared to
• 23:45
  women and a lot of the women are all widowed.
• 23:48
  And that goes back to even when you're older, when all women are
• 23:51
  fighting over the same men. Even in when you're old every,
• 23:56
  there's not a lot of men compared to women.
• 23:59
  And my dad, when my mom and dad moved into their retirement
• 24:02
  community, First of all, a couple of things happen.
• 24:05
  I have addressed this before. She did not make as many friends
• 24:08
  as she has now because the widows were just now the married
• 24:10
  couples, but also the friends she did have.
• 24:14
  My my dad would say to me, yes, she's popular because I can
• 24:18
  drive at night. Oh my God, that's so funny and.
• 24:23
  In actuality, she was popular because she couldn't be any
• 24:25
  sweeter than she is. But anyway.
• 24:27
  I've only watched 3 episodes so I still have more to go but I
• 24:32
  definitely think if you're looking for something.
• 24:34
  To me this one also made me feel better about dating later in
• 24:40
  life because it's not such AI feel like the golden bachelor.
• 24:45
  I just felt like everyone almost felt sorry for ladies.
• 24:49
  Sometimes you don't really feel sorry for these women.
• 24:51
  You're, oh, they're brave enough to get out there and do it again
• 24:54
  and. Is there a pool and they have to
• 24:56
  choose from within that pool of people or no?
• 24:59
  So it's not. Oh, see, that's the difference
• 25:00
  too with the Golden Bachelor. What feels so thirsty to me is
• 25:04
  that it's one man to 24 women. No, it's not like that.
• 25:08
  Not. The real world, the real world
• 25:09
  is there's however many men and however many women, and it's
• 25:12
  like you're trying to find your. Match, this professional is the
• 25:15
  one that gets them their match. Okay, so she's the one that kind
• 25:20
  of does a lot of the matching by what they tell her on both
• 25:26
  sides. So it's not at all really like
• 25:28
  the Golden Bachelor because you're not competing with a
• 25:31
  bunch of other women. I saw one clip where the
• 25:34
  matchmaker is sitting with an older gentleman and she's saying
• 25:38
  so. And so the woman that she's
• 25:39
  trying to sell him on, she lives in this county.
• 25:43
  And he said I know, but she lives across the crosstown
• 25:48
  traffic. And she said you're telling me
• 25:51
  you're looking for someone you want to spend the rest of your
• 25:53
  life with and you won't go across the traffic.
• 25:57
  And he said that is exactly what I am telling you.
• 26:00
  That's why I like it, because see, it's more realistic.
• 26:03
  Like the woman who said I don't want to be a nurse or a purse.
• 26:07
  She also, if you're not a Georgia Bulldog fan, she's not
• 26:11
  interested so. Much more.
• 26:13
  She's not interested. She wants someone who loves
• 26:16
  football, who's a big, she's a huge Georgia Bulldog fan, and
• 26:20
  you have to have that same interest or she's not really
• 26:23
  interested. That's more realistic.
• 26:25
  If you are into that and your kids are into that, you're grown
• 26:28
  adult kids, you want somebody who will go to those football
• 26:32
  games with you. Think about this, what's more
• 26:34
  realistic? This one lives in Kansas, this
• 26:38
  one lives where did Joan on the Golden Bachelor live?
• 26:40
  I can't Maryland and they're going to get it together.
• 26:43
  Of course they're saying that they did or this one won't cross
• 26:46
  traffic to see someone. If you see no realistic, you
• 26:49
  think that there is a 6570 year old man out there that won't go
• 26:53
  across the county versus that there's one that will go across
• 26:56
  the entire country. The one that was married to the
• 26:59
  guitar, our player, the famous guitar player, she went on a
• 27:03
  date where he they showed her always just talking about
• 27:07
  herself and talked, not asking him anything about him.
• 27:10
  And he finally said you've not asked me one thing about me.
• 27:15
  I'm done. I'm leaving.
• 27:18
  Do you know what I mean? That's good reality.
• 27:20
  When? You're older.
• 27:21
  You do. That yeah, you're not interested
• 27:24
  in me. You're interested in talking
• 27:25
  about yourself. So the woman told her, I told
• 27:29
  you not to do that. I told you you have to act
• 27:31
  interested. So I really did think it was
• 27:34
  funny. I really did.
• 27:36
  Fantastic. Hey everybody, let's all watch
• 27:39
  it. I'm going to go because you can
• 27:40
  binge this, right? It's all.
• 27:42
  Yeah, it's on Netflix, and to me, this is one of those shows
• 27:45
  you don't have to sit there and binge watch the whole whatever
• 27:48
  or how many episodes there are. If you just want something to
• 27:51
  make you laugh, watch one here, one there.
• 27:53
  What? You know what I mean?
• 27:54
  It's not oh, I have to binge watch.
• 27:56
  So anyway, that's another one I've been watching.
• 27:59
  Is there anything else we want to make sure we talk about?
• 28:02
  Because I really, I want to show you that I wrote this down
• 28:04
  before anything else. I want to show you what I wrote
• 28:06
  Eden's dream about. Oh.
• 28:08
  I have to hear Eden. I want to.
• 28:09
  Make sure we're done. Yeah, I watch so much stuff.
• 28:12
  I could go on and on, but I think I've hit my main things
• 28:16
  that I love right now. Okay, main points made points.
• 28:20
  So I had written down to tell you about my dream.
• 28:24
  I'm not going to sit here and tell you that I am omniscient,
• 28:27
  that I can oversee the future. Probably.
• 28:30
  It's more likely that just things that happened in my life
• 28:33
  trigger me remembering a dream versus I'm dreaming about it and
• 28:36
  then it happens. But it does happen quite a bit.
• 28:40
  I have a friend who says that's just like an intuitive thing.
• 28:42
  I don't know. But my dream that I had about
• 28:45
  you that I wrote down a week and a half ago that I wanted to
• 28:49
  share with you, don't be nervous.
• 28:52
  We were doing something where we were spending.
• 28:54
  I think we went somewhere, both you and Mitch and Steve and me,
• 28:58
  and then it was time for us to leave.
• 29:01
  We were going to travel back home or what have you, and our
• 29:04
  flight got cancelled or something.
• 29:05
  So we got stuck in town. So we invited ourselves along
• 29:08
  with you to a restaurant. And you really, what could you
• 29:11
  say? We're like, we're still in town,
• 29:12
  so where are you? We're going to join you for
• 29:14
  dinner. And then over dinner, we
• 29:16
  realized this restaurant, you needed to wait months to years
• 29:21
  to get a reservation, which you just brought up when you were
• 29:24
  talking about that restaurant in Chicago.
• 29:27
  So weird. So then I realized we have
• 29:30
  crashed this very special romantic date that the two of
• 29:34
  you have been planning for months because you had to get on
• 29:37
  a waiting list. And now they're not even sure
• 29:40
  they're going to give you a table because now there are four
• 29:42
  of us and you're just looking at us, trying to be polite,
• 29:45
  thinking what are we going to do with these guys?
• 29:48
  They have crashed our romantic Oh.
• 29:49
  My, that is so weird that I then just mentioned Charlie
• 29:52
  Trotter's, which it seriously, you have to wait.
• 29:55
  Like you back then, you had to wait like a year to get into
• 29:58
  what? That is weird.
• 29:59
  It's just that's very intuitive. It's strange, or some would call
• 30:04
  it a coincidence. Yes.
• 30:06
  So there is that. Anyway, as I mentioned over on
• 30:09
  our ladies only page, we are asking you if you have a
• 30:12
  organizational issue, something Christie.
• 30:13
  I mean, for those of you who found us on this episode and you
• 30:16
  only meeting us. She is a professional organizer,
• 30:19
  definitely wants to in the new year as we kick it off, address
• 30:21
  some things that are troubling you.
• 30:23
  So we are going to do a few episodes dealing with all of
• 30:27
  these things. So head on over there, join us
• 30:31
  and you will at the end of this episode find out exactly how you
• 30:34
  can do that. But in the meantime, there was
• 30:37
  another show that has gone off the air called Somebody
• 30:40
  somewhere that I'm going to watch.
• 30:41
  So if you are like the people who are now morning that that
• 30:45
  show is over, or if you are like Christine and you are mourning,
• 30:49
