  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay's best music is Magic. Magic. Magic.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: 94.9.
• 0:04
  Speaker 3: And welcome to a new episode of Scotty and Abby Unfiltered.
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: Got another couple comments for us to go do a
• 0:09
  Speaker 3: live show in Atlanta.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, brother.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: This idea is really coming together.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I know. I think we should just do it.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do too.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: When do you think it would be cheap to host
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: an event? Like, should we do, because we're doing one
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: here in December. So we probably shouldn't do anything before December.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: What about like a January? Happy New Year. We come
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: in to Atlanta. I'm sure they need us over there
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: for corporate for something.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Nobody's in a good mood in January. No one's drinking
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: in January.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Yeah, okay.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Advertisers don't have a good budget in January.
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: See, I thought that, okay, I guess I don't understand
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: business fiscal years.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Because they have to have their budget stuff like, I
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: don't know, like now? Yeah.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, that would be the time to do it. But
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's not going to cost them much. A
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: bar just needs to host us. Be able to give out, like,
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know, half-off drinks and.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: Like, free apps.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: What about February?
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Okay, February could work, too.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: February would be so gross in Atlanta. It'll probably be, like, snowing.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: What is the grossest month in Atlanta since you lived
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: there for.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I remember being thrilled getting to go to Columbia in January,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: and that would have been— Mid-January, I think?
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Is it because it gets that cold?
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: It was really cold. Like, it snowed when we left.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: When I left.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Damn. I know.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Like, it'll get really frosty in January, February, and a
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: little bit of March.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: It's kind of interesting because it's not that far from us,
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: but it's such a difference.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: But it also gets really cold. Okay, let me retake
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: that statement back. There's one day a year where it's
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: going to get freaking freezing this year.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. In Tampa, it does get cold. Like,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: I will say, and I'm cold right now because my
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: shoes still have rainwater in them because of this tropical storm.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I don't like the weather in Tampa as a whole
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: because it's either ridiculously hot or... ridiculously cold but you
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: don't have no one's wearing like winter clothes.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah like we don't have the proper stuff for it.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Whereas I do like the weather in Atlanta because you
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: kind of get all a mix of all the seasons
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: you get just enough to go it's fall it's winter
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: it's spring it's summer without it being too overwhelming.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah I will say like this upcoming well you were
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: here for the spring though do you remember I remember
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: this past spring thinking damn it's really nice yeah the
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: spring is February to May I was like oh.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: No, it's like April and May. April and May feel
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: delightful and then that's it.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Well, I do, you know, I don't want to necessarily move,
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: but I could also see this is like the first
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: year where I thought I could see myself moving out
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: of Florida simply for that reason. Like I want to
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: actually see the difference in season and I think I've
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: hit my threshold with heat.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was so... hot this year I've never been
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: this hot in my life I think yeah consistently I
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: mean like obviously you know I went to Columbia this
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: year that was hot but like I don't remember Florida
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: feeling this brutal.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah where you walk outside and it just like it
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: actually makes you mad like that's why I caught myself
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: or I'd walk outside I'd be like It's gross.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: It's like a gross heat.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Well, it should be nice.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, as we sit in a tropical storm,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: I guess that's the difference. Like it should be nice
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: right now.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I remember growing up and like playing high school football
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: and like getting to October would be all right. Like
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: we might be able to wear some long sleeves for
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: a couple of the Friday night games.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Not right now. No, we're not even close to that.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Not even remotely close.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Somebody did say our coworkers over on the bone.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: I remember hearing John Sennon say, so I have no
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: backing on this, no scientific proof. Only his word off
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: of his show talking about how this upcoming winter might
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: be the most brutal that we've ever experienced.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Like the coldest?
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Because of that whole like super El Nino over
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: in the West and the Pacific. That's all I can
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: base it off of that statement. So if anybody else
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: knows information, I'll be looking at the comments. But I
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: heard him say that and I was like, damn it.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: Like I can't handle another winter like we had where
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: it was like brutal, but it's supposed to be even
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: worse than that.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Oh no.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: So, I mean, I just gear up.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Well, Nino needs to sit the heck down.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: But I think that's the reason for the whole tropical
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: storm right now.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Is this climate change? Are we about to get political?
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Not well.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. Okay.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: I don't think we're about to get political now, whether
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: or not climate change. I mean, you tell me.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It's hotter and it's colder. Seems like a lot
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: of change.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm going to have to go somewhere
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: next summer. Like, I'm going to have to evacuate, genuinely.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Are you going to be somebody that summers?
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I would love to be someone that summers. Some old
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: man needs to... Literally, I would be the best third
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: wife if I could just get out of here for
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: the summer.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: How old would you go? Because, obviously, there's a lot
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: of sugar... Old as hell. Baby sugar mamas in Tampa.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: The older, the better. 98, 99 on your deathbed. They're like,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: come here, sweetie.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: And they're like, super, super old.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Put me in the will. Listen, we have a station
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: in Long Island. I can broadcast from the Hamptons.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: That would be kind of nice.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: That would actually be so great.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: But I mean, I see people out there in their
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: nice cars are probably, this is not super old. I'm
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: not saying this as an age and putting a limit. Like,
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: in their 60s, that's like, oh, hey, Abby.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah, you know.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, sign me up. I'm at that point. I
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: just got ghosted for the 50,000th time.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but that guy didn't deserve you. He did this
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: weird sideways smiley face.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah. You couldn't ever do that. Imagine that's like your
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: wake-up text.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Good morning. I also don't like the idea of a
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: wake-up text.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: You don't?
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: I saw somebody say that the other day, and I
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: was like, they thought it was cringey, and I was like,
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: I love a wake-up text.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: I think it's, yeah, I don't know what's wrong with
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: me in my brain, but that would cringe me out.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: And it's not the fact that you're texting me in
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: the morning. It's more of like, Good morning. And then, like,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: the signing face. I don't know, just, like, it's, like, cringey.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: But if you, like, sent me, like, a meme or something, like,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: if you, like, sent me something funny, that I, like.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Enjoy that.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Like, hey, I woke up, I thought of you, but, like, ha-ha,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: laugh funny.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like a different way of doing the same thing.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, whereas, like, I don't know, there's something very feminine
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: about saying good morning.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Correct.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: OK, let me wait and dive into this because I
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: say good morning all the time.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, no, I'm not saying we do a morning show.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: OK, no, I'm not talking about that. But like my
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: favorite phrase and.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: You say it, you say it. So we did a
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: break today where I'm like, you said good morning seven
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: times this break.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: You opened the break with good morning. Closed it with
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: good morning. And then you said, how are you this morning?
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: This morning we're going to get... And I'm like, should
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I tell him? I think we just said it seven times.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Actually, on that topic, I do need to acknowledge and
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: in a way apologize because I was saying to Abby earlier,
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: I was like, I have vacation brain. And so I
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: caught myself as we're finishing out the show.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: I was like, damn, I've been on one today. Like
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: my energy has been like.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Boom, boom, boom.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Because I'm ready to get out.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: I'm also on the opposite end of the spectrum, too. So, like,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: you're here, and I'm here, and I'm cold, and my
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: family's coming to town this week.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I'm over here like, I'm not going to keep up.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're about to turn 30. I'm like, I'm disassociating.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd clap myself. I was like, damn, okay.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: I did come in flying colors, just, like, ready to
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: get on out of here.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: I have the thing right now that you were talking
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: about before you went to Italy. where you just get
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: to packing and you're just the most disorganized you've ever been.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: In your life. 100%.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I'm dealing with that right now where I'm like, when
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: I get off the podcast today, it feels like I
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: have to put my entire life together because I have
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: friends that are staying at my apartment today. So I
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: got to set up an air mattress for them. I
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: had to order like a new blanket because I didn't
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: have an extra blanket because I don't have guests that
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: stay over.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: I'm getting new sheets. I got to wash their sheets.
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: I got to wash their blankets. I got to wash
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: my laundry. And then on top of it, I got
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: to pack.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: So my brain's like, How are you packing since it's
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: going to be rainy when you go to Key West?
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Because you're going to Key West, and if you haven't
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: been watching the news like me, because I just found out,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: there's apparently a tropical storm.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Yep, that's how we started today.
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I wasn't anticipating rain until I saw a
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: text from my girlfriend yesterday that said, by the way, everyone,
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: bring a rain jacket. And I thought, no, not because
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: months ago.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, you all on the podcast have heard. You
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: heard the moment I booked this trip. It was a gamble.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: I just can't believe you're going to be on. You're
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: sleeping on a boat in the middle of a tropical storm.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: That's so freaking funny. Because I remember I brought that up.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I was I was like, why do a catamaran when
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: you could just find like another hotel? And you're like,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: we'll be cool. I'm like, OK, I feel like there's
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: something that's going to go wrong.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if something could go wrong, it will go wrong.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: I feel like a boat could sink, you know what
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I mean? Oh, God.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Well, we are docked up to, like, a marina.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: It doesn't mean you can still sink.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: As far as I know, you're still in the water.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: All right, well, here's the thing. I have two ways
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: of looking at it.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: The first is, with the tropical storm and the waves, like, doesn't...
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Doesn't that kind of sound peaceful?
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Like, getting rocked to sleep like a baby?
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, until you're, like.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Hitting against the dock.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Also, I just turned on... I'm really cold, so I
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: have my sweatshirt wrapped around my legs, and I just
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: looked at the video, and I was like, oh, my God,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: I look like a freaking minion. Babadooey. Babadooey.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Hello.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Hello.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: So it's either going to be that or people in
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: the boat are going to get sick. That's what I'm
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: actually worried about. If the boat's rocking and somebody gets seasick,
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: that would suck.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: I feel kind of bad for them now. I do, too.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: You guys will have fun.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: I feel like you'll find an indoor activity. I do, too.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, if I was trying to think back, I
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: was like, what are we going to do anyway? Like,
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: the only outdoor activity, we had snorkeling. Which we might
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: still be able to do if it's like midday and
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: it's still sunny out.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Well, who knows? Like maybe after the storm passes, it'll
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: be beautiful.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: It's going to be up a little higher north. So
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: we shouldn't really be getting any bands by this weekend.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: We're going snorkeling Friday.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: We should be okay.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: But every other activity was like, I don't know.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: Bar.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Bar. Bus. Bus. Club. Club.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Another club.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Another club. Next plane.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: You know, like a nice dinner. I was thinking about going.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: This sounds corny, but if you ever go to Key West,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: go to the butterfly garden thing.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: It's like the coolest thing because I got thousands of
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: butterflies that just land right on you.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: And some people that freaks them out. But for me,
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: I love a butterfly.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: It does freak i like the idea of a butterfly
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: but i don't want.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: It to touch me you don't want it are you
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: scared of them are you like grossed out by them.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: I it's just like they're little insects that just sit
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: on you and you don't know that they're there and
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: so then you get surprised when they're there and i
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: don't want to like swat it and then kill it
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: that's it's like an anxiety thing i have.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: That thought too i'm like They're so delicate.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: I don't want to be the reason one dies.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: I know. And that would be me. They'd be like,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: here comes the monster. Like the anxious monster. Like this
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: beautiful creature that just spent. It's like, oh, I just
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: spent four months in a cocoon and I can't wait
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: to come out. And then dead first day on a
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Pixar sketch.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: I'm doing it for the photos. I want to do
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: one when it lands on me.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: I get to take a nice little photo. And then
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: be able to leave the place with a little memory.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: That'll be beautiful.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: We're all in our 30s now. So it's like we
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: can't really. As much as I would love to hit bar, bar, bar.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: I know myself. I can't hit bar, bar, bar.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: And that's not always fun. No, it's not.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: Like one, two bars fun. But, like, I don't think
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: we're even going to, like, at night.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: Like, maybe just hang at a bar for a little bit.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: But I'm not the biggest. I can't handle a lot
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: of alcohol.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: You say that.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: No, I can't handle a lot. I can drink.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was about to say, like, every
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: time I see you, I'm like, Scott's lit. You were
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: lit at Halloween Horror Nights. Or where were we, Scott?
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Where were we? Scream a lot.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, hollow scream?
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Sally scream a lot.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: That's my own haunted house.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Instead of Sally Smiles a lot, your new nickname is
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Sally Screams a lot. I did.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Okay, well, let's see. Let me think. Let me think.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: I didn't have that, man. I think I had like
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: one drink there. Yeah. I'm just lit on life.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Yay.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I just, I get excited. I'm very excitable.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: Just say you do coke in the bathroom.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: That's why I leave every five minutes.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: No, I know.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: I come back all juiced up.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: I thought it was just IBS. Turns out it's a
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: crippling drug addiction.
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: I have problems in many ways. But that was, you know,
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: every now and then I get that little itch that's like,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Turn up time.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Let me go a little wild.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: And then it's always the next day where I'm like,
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: why did I do that? Like, I'm not trying to
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: do that this trip.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: I'll go hit a cool bar. I want to do
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: a little karaoke. I want to go see the town.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: You got to switch to tequila. I'm telling you, switching
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: to tequila will change your life.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Because it's an upper.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: It's an upper.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: So that's also it.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: Because what I've noticed a lot, and my girlfriend and
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: I talk about this all the time, I get so.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Anxious now when I drink.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Really? Yeah.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Like, my mind spirals, like, no tomorrow. When I start, like, maybe, like,
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: it's probably two or three drinks in. What do you,
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: what's your alcohol choice? If I could just have, well,
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: my alcohol choice is, like, a glass of wine. Like
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: a Sauvignon Blanc.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Okay. And that makes you anxious? Not that necessarily. Usually
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: I could sip wine and be fine.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: But if, like, I start going to, like, let's say, like,
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: the seltzers or, like, a cocktail and I get, like,
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: that little buzz feeling, I don't know. My brain just
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: likes to make up these stories that You know, somebody's
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: mad at me, or I did something wrong, or I
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: said something stupid.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: And I'm sitting there in that anxious little bubble that's like, mm,
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: you've gone too far, and now you have to sit
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: and live with yourself.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, bro, like, just enjoy the.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: You need another drink.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Actually, I gotta just drink to get past that point.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: I think what it is is, like, just past experiences. I've, like,
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: done a lot of work on recognizing, when did this start,
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: why is this here, and how do I rewrite this story?
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Because, like, in the past, whether it was, like, fights
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: with partners... or having problems while drinking.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: So being with your girlfriend and drinking is a trigger
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: for you?
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Sometimes. Now I'm rewiring that part of me. Okay.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: That's something my girlfriend and I have talked about because
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: we've both had that. Where in the past, it was
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: not always the healthiest of having a couple drinks with
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: your partner, how that would turn into, even just conversations.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: And now we're like, oh, wait, we don't have to
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: worry about that.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Cool. Cool.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: And we recognize it. We're like, oh, you're anxious. I'm anxious, too.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about why. And we're good.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: So there's still a part of me that's like, oh, God.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I get three drinks.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, what did I do wrong? And then
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: I recognize I'm like, oh, wait, nothing. You just have fun.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I just had three glasses of vodka or three glasses
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: of a vodka drink.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, just a little cocktail. So we'll see. We might
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: do a little bar hopping. But I was just telling
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: some of the coworkers out in the break room. I'm like,
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: I'm hitting 30.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: We're doing a coffee crawl. We're not doing a bar crawl.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: That's a different kind of anxiety.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: The margarita crawl won't make me anxious, but a coffee crawl,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I'll be pooping my pants.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: I will be in an anxious spiral. That's why we're
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: going in on Thursday. As we get there, I begin
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: the coffee crawl. Not rushing through, but I did have
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: to buy extra time at the Airbnb, the early check-in,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: because I thought about that. I was like, good lord,
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: I'm going to make all these people have to poop. Like,
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: we're going to have all this coffee.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I can't think of anything worse than a coffee crawl
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: and then being stuck on a catamaran that's being whacked
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: by the tropical storm.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: I'm planning the worst trip of my friend's life.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Logistically, you're not set up for success. Doesn't mean you're
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: not going to have fun, though.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: I think, luckily, the group I'm bringing, everyone's so chill,
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: gets along so easily, and has known each other for
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: so long that it's like, okay, no problems. Yeah, you're
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: going to be fine. But it is kind of funny
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: to be like, We're going into a storm.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: We're going to be on a boat.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: We're going to see how this thing turns out in
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: the next four days.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: If anything, it'll be a couple good stories.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: You've got to vlog it. This is a David Dobrik sketch.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: I think I am going to take a lot of photos,
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: a lot of videos because I just want to have
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: these memories in general. But also, I've got to get back.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: This is a weird thought, but I've got to get
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: back to posting because I've kind of been... Sitting on
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: the back burner for a second. Cause don't, do you
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: go through that too? Like I'll go so hard and
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: then all of a sudden it's like nothing.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Creativity is a wave. I was just thinking about that
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: this morning. I've been posting a crap ton on social media,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: but it's just cause I hit a wave in the algorithm.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: And so for me, it's more satisfying to post if
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: I know it's going to get traction. And so, um,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: it's been a minute since I've done like a Bay's
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: on Bayshore interview. And I always post those because I
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: know they're going to do well. Um, but sometimes when
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: it's like personal content, like, I don't know if it's
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: going to do well. And so with, I've been posting
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: a lot about Tampa Bay sports cause I'm like, those
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: are going to do well. I'm like, I know if
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I have my hair done and I say anything about sports,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: I'm going to hit the mail algorithm. Boom, boom. Um,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: I know I have the people that do give a
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: shit about me who just follow me for me. And, um, yeah,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: so I'm riding that wave right now, but I'm sure
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: in a couple months I'll be like, or a couple
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: of weeks or probably a couple of days I'll go. Yeah.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Like I'm thinking tonight, I'm like, what am I going
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: to post? I was like, okay, the Rays are playing tonight.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: I need to go watch the Rays somewhere so I
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: can post something about the Rays.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: I was thinking about that because like you do, it's
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: like you get into a feeling of like, you know,
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: it's going to be good. You know, you have something
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: to say, but then as soon as you stop, it's like,
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: as soon as you stop that momentum.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: Oh my God.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: It feels like I'm trying to restart the train. Like
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: I could post, like we post stuff for the show.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: I have no problem posting that.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: But then anything else, it's literally like you just said,
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: like personal stuff. I'm like, I don't know. Like my brain,
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: here comes the anxious brain. It's like, Who cares? Yes.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: I think the same thing too.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't know. Somebody does. Every time somebody does.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Or if I say this, what's the point of me
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: saying this? Because the point is, okay, well, if it
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: gets a lot of traction, then okay, I've said something
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: that means something to people. But if I say something
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: and then it's like five people that like it or whatever,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: it's just kind of like, okay, why did I open
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: my mouth?
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: But doesn't that suck?
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Because that shouldn't be how we get validated, especially if
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: we have a thought or if we have a way
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: that we're going about this life and we just want
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: to share because it's on our heart.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: And then our brain's like, well, obviously it wasn't a
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: good one if you didn't get any traction.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: My thoughts were wrong.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, no, I thought it was a good thought.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Like that's how a lot of the things that I
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: post for like the Dare to Dream stuff.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: I'm like, this is literally like I'm bleeding out my soul.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: Here's me living my dream.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Nothing.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah. All right.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: We just have to figure out what.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: Like who do you follow and why is their content effective?
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Like if you like their content.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was thinking about those people that I'm like,
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: we have very similar styles.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: What makes theirs really connect and learning from them?
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: Like when I see somebody like a, gosh, like different speakers,
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: let's say a Tony Robbins, for example, obviously.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Way different example, way bigger, way longer.
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: But the way things are said is a lot more
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: impactful because it's just had a lot more time to simmer.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: where sometimes I would just get on and just let
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: it rip for a second. I'm like, well, maybe that's
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: not the best practice.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it is. You just walk in, you have a thought,
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: let it rip.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: But other times, you see a lot of these content creators,
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: you're like, oh, wait, no, they've been simmering on that
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: idea for a while. They've had work and practice and production,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: and once they put it up, it's the best product
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: that it could be. Like not letting perfection get in
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: the way, but also putting a little more practice into
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: the product.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: But also, I was talking about this with one of
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: our other hosts, is sometimes it's the dumb shit that
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: takes off. Like, for example, you weren't there, but my,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: and it's now deleted. I literally had to delete the
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: video because I sponsored the wrong beer in it. I
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: did this whole AMC, we come to this place for magic,
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: that Nicole Kidman sketch while we were at the game
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: on Monday. And I was so excited about it. And
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I posted it and I was like, I don't think
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: this is going to take off. And I just put
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: so much effort into it and I was so excited
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: about it. And then meanwhile, I post literally a video
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: that took me 25 seconds making fun of the fact
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: that the NHL is trying to resonate with their female
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: fans by doing book talk nights. And I was like,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: what are they doing? And you know, that one took
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: off like crazy. Yeah.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: Like the things that you don't put much effort in,
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: you're like, well, why am I putting all this other
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: creative juice into this video?
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: If I know it's not going to do anything.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: That's the problem with creativity or just doing this job
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: in general is sometimes it's, it's just lighting the match
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: while there's Hang on. There's a word here.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: I thought you were like, there's somebody behind me.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: I was like, am I about to be stabbed? I'm
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: sitting on a great line, but I'm about to fuck
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: it up. Sometimes you have to strike a match while
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: there's a tinder. I don't know. Just strike while the
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: iron's hot. And the iron is your creativity. Like, when
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: you have a thought, just post. Don't overthink the thought.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Just post the thought. Yeah.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: And if you're creative and you just want to create, like,
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: that's also what I've told myself is, like, just create.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: to create and forget like if it does any like
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: validation and likes or comments or shares you have to
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: create because it makes you happy like whenever I edit
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: our videos together like it actually fills me with joy
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: so the outcome I don't really care it's nice to
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: have a connection it's nice to have the validation but
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: also you have to remember like if you're a creative person,
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: that's your outlet. Yeah. Have fun just creating, get joy
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: out of that. But it is tricky when everything we
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: do now is for some kind of like share or save.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: What that, but here's the thing. That's our, our currency.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: So for example, we had a long conversation about ratings yesterday, um,
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: which is not a conversation I'm just going to like,
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: just start divulging on. But like, there's things that, so
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: the conversation that we were having was like, People listen
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: for a while, but like you have to reach a
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: certain level in the ratings to make money. And so,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: you know, it might sound dumb to be like, okay,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: you have to post what you think is going to
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: get traction, but you have to do that so you
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: can post the shit that fills you up, like the
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: creativity things. Like they're like posting a random video that
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: I just had a thought about just like, oh, blah, blah, blah,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: typically sports. It's not fulfilling creatively. But I know that's
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: going to get me on a bajillion people's algorithms.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Whereas if I get on a bajillion people's algorithms, then
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: when I do create something that's interesting to listen to,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: like a podcast or a video, you have that audience
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: there to recognize it. And you hope that kind of
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: fuels the.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah it's like finding a way to make sure that
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: it's still paying off in the long run it's not
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: just a post that goes into the void like whoo
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: off into the space yeah so if.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: You see me whoring myself out for Tampa Bay sports
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: that's why.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: It makes sense you're good at it you're so good
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: at it and it strikes every.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Time not every time I mean the AMC one didn't
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: get a lot of traction let's let's make fun of
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: my post what if I post that is hasn't done
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: well um you know what's so funny every time I
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: post about chill bros I feel like it never gets
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: a lot of traction I just did an ice cream
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: review yesterday.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: I wonder if it's because it looks like an ad
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: it probably does it didn't look like an ad but
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: I mean I guess maybe that's like a thought like
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: it's so interesting and maybe you don't like if you're
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: hearing this you're like you know I'm not a content
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: creator I'm not a you know somebody that's posting a
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: lot it's fascinating for us to like catch yourself on
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: what you stop on when you're scrolling it is interesting
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: yeah it's so crazy because you're like why did I
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: stop why am I watching and that's what I've caught
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: myself doing more of like Why did I scroll past it?
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Why did I stop? And I wonder how people look
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: at that one. Cause I'm like, that's a funny, cool post.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: The chill bros. Well, I just thought it would resonate
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: with people in Tampa. Oh, people love, love the bucks.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: They love chill bros. Like, and it's not doing bad,
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: but like, for example, then here's me. What's, what's a
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: dumb one. Um, like I'm.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Just thinking about your past posts.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: So for example, the one, what's so funny is the
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: October 3rd one that I posted about just Tampa Bay sports.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: That was literally just, I'm a little drunk. I'm walking home.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Let me just talk about Tampa Bay sports. And I
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: posted it. It's got like 3000 likes.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: That's crazy.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: It's just so random. But like, why did people stop?
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Just Tampa sports. And there's a girl talking.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Yeah.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I, I, sometimes I was listening to
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: this whole thing about, this is a weird tangent y'all morning.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: I was listening to this whole thing about gambling. Where,
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: you know, how casinos work. And it's, you know, you
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: just get enough satisfaction where you think you could win.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: But never enough where you actually win it all. Because
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: if you win it all, then it kind of drops
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: off a little bit. So it's kind of like the
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: same thing. Like, they've taken the same exact concept and
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: applied it to social media. Where it's, you know, you
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: post six. One's going to do decent. One might do
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: really well. And the rest are going to do kind of, eh, flatline.
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: But it's going to give you enough of that carrot
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: where you're going to say, nah, I think I can
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: get another one.
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: I think I can get another one. And that's where
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: the addiction comes in.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: Where it's like, oh, God.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: Could I do it again? You know, there's a part
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: of me every now and then I get this thought.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: I'm like, yes, technically I could do this where I
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: could just drop off a social media altogether.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: You could.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: I could.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: Like, so I'm not saying I can't, but. Yeah, it
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: would be the dumb idea to do with the jobs
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: that we have. Yeah, because, I mean, you don't have
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: to sit on social media all day.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: But to not post is not smart for us. Yes,
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: but it's kind of like you're still playing with that addiction.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: So me even getting on to create, I'm still going
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: into the void of like, ooh, bright colors, notifications, interesting things.
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: The next thing you know, I'm like, I have this
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: thing on my app on my phone now that tells
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: me how many times I've opened Instagram.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: It's insane. insane yeah it sits at like 50 a day.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: But if you think about it social medias are town
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: square and so i'm not saying it's right i'm not
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: saying we should be on social media all the time
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: but it's sort of like you just want to know
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: what people are up to i know what are the
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: people talking about in the town square yeah you know
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: if this was the 1509 you'd just be a social creature.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: You'd just be out in the streets talking to neighbors.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Granted, you shouldn't be at the town square all day.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: You got to go to work. You know, you got
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: to pay so you can have a pint at the
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: pub in the town square.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: I'd rather go have a pint in a conversation in
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: the town square.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: So I think that's why it's so tough for us
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: to not be on it because it's like, what am
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I missing? Like, what are people talking about? Yeah.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: And I guess the difference is like in the town square,
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: you just saw people as people.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: But online, people are like, well, I'm this character now.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: I have all these likes and I have this image
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: and I have this whole view of what you think
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: about me. And it might not be true, but I'm like, oh, wow,
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: look at them. They have a whole lot of stuff.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: It's like going in and people have all these fake
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: houses in the town square. They're like, look at my house.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God, no.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, God.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Do you know who we probably share an algorithm with?
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Have you followed a girl named Shelby Sapp?
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, the sales girl?
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Yes, not Warren Sapp's long white daughter.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Let me open up her.
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: Because she's someone that I'm like, I know she probably
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: made her money legit, but her life is so grandiose
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: that I'm like, there's no way that's real. She lives
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: in this insane house in Maryland. It's got to be
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: like a $ 30 million house.
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: Let me see. Oh, okay. Because I do know.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: By the way, this is like not hating on this girl.
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: I'm just bringing up the fact that sometimes I see
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: her life and I go, that's AI. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: She has one point eight million. She's a sales trainer. Yeah. Wow.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: OK, so I see a lot of these people in
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: the male world. It's like fitness guys that are like, well,
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: look at my body. I'm going to sell you how
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: to make a how to get your body like this.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, bro, you are on roids like that's
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: not even like you're cheating the system. Yeah.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: It's like fitness influencers on Reta or. Or zumpy. Yeah.
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: Like, where it's like, okay, yeah, you have a certain
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: look and maybe you did do well in sales, but
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: it's just hard to tell with social media because you
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: could have made your money in other ways and now
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: you're flaunting that money to tell people that it's from
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: sales to get more money from people buying your sales training.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: It's actually so valid.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: It's so valid.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: So, I mean, good for her.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: Yes, exactly.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Crazy amounts of money.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: And that's where, like, it just, it piles on where
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: you could just have this illusion of who you are
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: and now you can make money for that illusion. I'm like, but,
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: I literally talked to my coach about this. I can't
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: do that. My internal, my code could not do that.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: I couldn't act as something that I'm not just to
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: have a paycheck for something because I'm like, that's not legit.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: No, because that wouldn't be fulfilling in the long run.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it might be fun to have a little bit
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: of money.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: I ultimately think, and maybe this is delusional, I really
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: think if you do the thing that you enjoy doing,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: at some point the money will come.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: I 100% agree.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: I really, I have to be delusional enough to believe
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: that's real. Yeah.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: I think if, how I've always said it is we're
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: all kind of given like an idea or a dream
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: or a project that we want to work on. And
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: sometimes it doesn't look exactly as we imagined. But there's
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: a branch of it. That could be something that could
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: be very fulfilling. It's still hitting that purpose.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah. But you found a way to make money.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Because ultimately, I feel like the things that you love doing, like,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: you like them for a reason.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: Correct.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Mm-hmm.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: Like, you should find a way that it's actually going
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: to be fulfilling. And not everyone needs to make money
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: from it. Yeah. But you should also recognize that there's
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: probably an option for you to make money.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: Like, I talk to my brother about this all the time.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: Bless you.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Sorry.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: My brother's such a good artist. Like, insane. An artist.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: they're such an interesting breed because they just naturally have it.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: It just, it is crazy.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: I can't draw a stick figure to save my life,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: but some people can just like, it's insane to me.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: They can just draw a perfect circle. And that's why
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: we have circles. Yeah.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: Like they just came out one day and they're like,
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: Oh my God, I'm just really good at this whole thing.
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: That's how my brother is. And I'm like, if you want,
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: and you don't have to, cause it might make it
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: feel like a job instead of something that you truly
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: love doing.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: But I'm like, you can make money off of that.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: You could just show people you drawing and they will
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: pay because it's that satisfying to see somebody do a
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: skill that we don't have.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: I don't have the drawing skill.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: I watch videos all the time on Instagram of like
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: an overhead view of somebody just drawing or painting. And
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: it's just the time lapse of it. And I'm like,
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: you can make money doing that. And his argument, and
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: maybe it's yours too, listening of, yeah, I love this thing.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: But like if I try to make it into something
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: that makes me money, it might take the satisfaction away
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: from it because now the pressure is kind of raised
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: up a little bit.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: On what it looks like.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: It's just, it's hard because it would be nice to
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: have a little extra cheddar in that bank account.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: For sure. But I love supporting people who are doing
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: the thing that they love. Yeah. I don't want to
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: go to an accountant to somebody who hates being an accountant.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: I want to go to somebody who loves numbers and
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: Excel spreadsheets.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Yes. I think, oh, I saw there's a business here
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: in Tampa Bay.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: It's called in St.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: Pete. I want to say the Berg Nutrition. It's a
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: smoothie shop in St. Pete.
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: And I just watched their Instagram and it made me
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: fall in love with their brand even more.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: Because they talked about this was our dream for such
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: a long time. They showed them like literally renting the building,
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: putting it all together, launching their first business for the
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: smoothie shop. And because it's their passion, because they're so
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: excited for it, I'm like, I'm always going to y'all.
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: You're so excited about that, that yeah, I'm going to
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: go and support that business because you put so much time,
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: energy and passion behind it.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: It's interesting because I was thinking about this yesterday with
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: influencer brands because there's a couple of influencers I follow
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: that have just launched a couple of things and I'm like,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: I totally respect them getting into the business space because
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: I think that's just a smart business move in general.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: But sometimes it does just feel like. a cash grab.
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: A hundred percent.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: Where I'm like, you make so much money that like,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: why am I going to buy something that I know
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: you wouldn't buy for yourself?
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: Correct.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Does that make sense?
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: That's where there's a very hard line of like, even
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: things that we like endorse with radio. Like sometimes, you know,
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: you get pitched for something that's, that doesn't really feel
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: authentic to me.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: I don't feel like somebody's recently.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: And again, I haven't learned enough about, for this topic,
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: peptides to know, like to get into this discussion, but
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: I've been offered peptides. if I wanted to support and
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: endorse peptides.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Why doesn't nobody offer me these things? I get on peptides.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: What's the one that everyone's getting that makes your skin glow?
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: It's the copper? The GHK? Okay. Shoot me up with GHK.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: I will give you the contact for it. No one
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: ever pitches me for endorsements. I'm like, do people think
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: I don't like... To buy things?
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think everyone thinks you just have it all.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: You're just good.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: I think she's fine.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: She's fine. She's got all her good active sets. She's good.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: She's got that finger all bandaged up. Oh, is your
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: finger all taken care of?
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: No, I just took off the bandage last night because
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: my finger was turning purple.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: Abby, Jesus.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: What the hell?
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: I think it looks fine now.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: I think it looks okay now. Oh, my God. There
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: you go.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: What's up, bitches? Is it wonky now?
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: No, it doesn't look like that. You're good. But anyway,
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: back to that.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: We see celebrities all the time that are like, I
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: feel like they're just pimping themselves out. And again, make
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: your money. But it's not right to do it for
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: your people that love you. And you're going to make
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: them fall in love with a brand that you know
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: you don't use. I don't like to buy things from
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: rich people. Because I'm like, you're not using that. You're
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: not drinking that gin. You're not wearing that sweatshirt.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: You're buying yourself bloopity bloop bloop bloop.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: There are a couple, though, that I have. Like, I believe....
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: Like, The Rock has energy drinks. Like, I went all
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: in on him because I was like, yeah. Because you
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: like The Rock.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like The Rock. I don't know. He has
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: a brand that I could trust for me.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I look at him and I'm like, I
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: feel like I could trust that guy. That would be heartbreaking, though,
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: to find out, you know, that this whole illusion.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: Can I break your heart a little bit? Yeah. He's
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: not drinking those.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: No way.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, he is. He's not drinking those.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: He has to be.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: He's The Rock. You think he's drinking a $ 4 energy drink?
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so. I actually do. I legitimately do.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: So here's why I respect Gwyneth Paltrow. Have you heard
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: of Goop, her Goop wish list or her Goop Christmas list?
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: She'll put out these Christmas lists that have these insane
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: items that you can buy. It's sort of like Oprah's
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: favorite things, but it's super, super luxe. I respect that more.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: Tell me to buy the $ 3, 000 Cartier bracelet because you
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: love it. Because I'm like, you know what? Gwyneth Paltrow
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: probably does love the $ 3, 000 Cartier bracelet.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: That's a much better way to do it. Cause now
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: you're being real.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Like, okay. Yeah.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: You don't have to buy these things, but if you
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: truly wanted to see what I love, this is it. Like,
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: who did we talk about yesterday? Like even, you know,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: everyone knows, I don't know, Jennifer Aniston for Aveeno.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: I'm like, Oh yeah. But she's also a brand that
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: I trust.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know why. I don't think Jennifer Aniston is
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: using Aveeno.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Maybe she is though. It's a great brand.
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: It's a great lotion.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Why can't they just sponsor things that, They actually like. Like,
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: tell me you're using the $ 200 moisturizer. I would be
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: more apt to buy the $ 200 moisturizer that Jennifer Aniston
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: is using.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: If you know it's actually legitimately working.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: If that's legitimately what she was using. Because I remember,
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: because again, all roads lead back to Taylor Swift with me.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: I was watching her documentary and there was a.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: A clip of her about to get in the bathtub.
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: And I was like, what products are like, I was,
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: I was screenshotting. I was like, what does she use
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: on her hair? Like genuinely when you're a billionaire, what
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: shampoo do you use? And I would have been, I
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: would have not that I bought her expensive stuff, but
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: I was like, you know what? If it's like a
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: hundred dollar shampoo, maybe I'll try it once.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: Let's try it once.
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, because there is certain items that the price does matter.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Sometimes.
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: Not always. Very rarely. But there are some things that
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: you're like, okay, that's worth every dollar.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: And if it's going to have that magic, like I
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: spent more on, I don't know, now that I have
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: longer hair, I spend more on hair products, and I'm
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: trying to find the ones that are actually legit. Because
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: you get sold all these ones, and yeah, the cheaper
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: items work better for my wallet, but do they work
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: better for the long run of quality, of look, of
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: what you're going for? Or could you save yourself a
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: lot of time and energy- by just going to the
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: next level. It's hard to pick because now we're getting
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: sold literally everything. And everyone's jumping into perfumes and everything too.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: The people that I like to buy from are the
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: people who are incredibly intelligent about the industry. So for example,
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: I follow this girl who audits activewear. And she'll tell
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: you like who cuts corners, who actually has good active wear.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, whatever you sell me, I will buy
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: you because you're explaining why something's high quality. And so
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: she's like, aloe is trash. XYZ is trash. This is trash.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: But like buy Athleta or Lululemon because they don't cut
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: corners in specific areas. I'm like, okay, I will take
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: my money.
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like they justify the price.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: That makes a lot more sense.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: It's hard because there's some brands that like, There's this influencer.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: He's a fitness influencer, Nick Bear. I don't know if
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: you've ever seen his stuff.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Let me look him up.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: But he has a YouTube channel, and it's kind of
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: the most genius thing you could do because he, again,
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: I think he does.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: It's his own brand, so I would think he uses it.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: But created this brand based off of his workouts and
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: the person that he's become.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: And because of that, I bought into it. I was like, shoot.
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: I mean— If he's put this together, he tells why
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: it works. For some reason, I don't know the dude.
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: I have nothing to back it up, but I'm like, well,
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: I'm going to buy into it because at least it
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: looks like he actually uses his own product.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: Should we give our product recommendations, our non-sponsors, or should
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: we do no free ads?
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, shoot, the podcast fam knows.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to think of what are the things that
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: you use that are absolutely worth it.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: Other than the things that you get paid to endorse
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: right now, what are, like, the three things you're not
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: getting paid to endorse that you would love to endorse?
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: That's a good question.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: And maybe we can send this to sales, me and
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: my sweatshirt.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh. I would say even.
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: Okay, so if you're on the YouTube channel, I'm wearing
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: a shirt right now. I got it from this place
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: called Six Laps. I think it's a brand of Fit
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: to Run.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: It is the greatest quality shirt I've ever worn. Yeah, like,
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: this is super thick. It's super durable.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: And.
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: I got a pair of, like, walking running shoes on
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: clouds from Six Laps. I've had them for over a year.
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: The most comfortable walking shoes I have ever owned.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Because you're on a cloud.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: I'm on a cloud.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: So they're as advertised.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like, they're legit. Like, I will go spend the money.
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: And I think the shoes were, like, $ 160. So no
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: cheap shoe. Okay.
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: But worth every dollar that I would go back. And
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: I wish they were endorsing me.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: So Six Laps on clouds. One more.
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: And we'll then fit to run. But I'm trying to think.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: I would say the other one is like the whoop band.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: Oh, you do wear the whoop. I was going to
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: say what hair products have you found that have worked
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: for your your flow?
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: We're still kind of getting there. We're discovering what really works.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: I use the sea salt spray. I can't even think of.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: Why are you using a sea salt spray?
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: Because people on TikTok told me. Literally, that's the reason.
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: Because I have now if you go through my algorithm,
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: it's like every third video is a dude showing me
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: how to do hair.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, okay. So I use this.
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: It's called Fix Your Lid Sea Salt Spray. This is
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: like a cheap one. I don't know if it's doing
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: the justice.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: Just salt in a bottle.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Salt in water.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: I'm now on the journey to find that.
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: But the other one I would say is like I
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: bought into Whoop, and that was one that like, all right,
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: I spend the money for it.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: I like what it's done for my body. I'm all in.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: If I was going to endorse three things that I'm
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: not currently endorsing is- So non-sponsored. So non-sponsored. So free ad. Yep.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Fashion pass.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: Fashion pass. Fashion Pass is a clothing rental brand. This
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: has saved me from getting into a shopping addiction.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: Oh, really?
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: Because getting new items or new outfits scratches the itch
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: that I don't feel like I constantly need to buy things.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Because I do have a problem where I don't feel... Okay,
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: this is an actual problem. If I go out and
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: I'm wearing an outfit that's not new... I don't know
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: if anybody else feels this way. I feel kind of weird.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: No, you're not alone with this.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: If I'm not wearing an outfit that feels new, I
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: don't feel like my optimal self. Do you know what
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: I mean? Yes. And I'm a maximizer. Like I want
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: my hair to feel as good as it could. Like
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: I want to feel, I want to work out that
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: morning so I feel ripped. And then I want to
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: wear a new outfit.
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: You know, I would compare it to like just flipping
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: it a little bit is we could all you know,
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: recognize the feeling we get when we do put on
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: that outfit that we really love.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: It's that same feeling.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Something novel. I like the novelty of it. And so this,
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: it's a way to budget that. So you just spend X, Y,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Z amount of dollars and then you get new clothing
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: items every single month. So instead of impulse buying and
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: kind of randomly just going willy nilly with the budget,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: you know how much you're going to spend on clothes
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: that year. And every now and then, like, I buy
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: my own active wear, obviously, but you get new outfits.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: They're very high-quality outfits, and you get to have that
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: novelty of, ooh, I have a new fit on.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: You feel really good when you go out.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: Your best self. Well, I guess we don't need to
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: talk about the price of it.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: It's $ 98 a month. Well, no, Fashion Pass might be
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: $ 100 a month, $ 120 maybe.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: How many outfits do you get with that?
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: So you get six items, but you can change them out. Oh, nice. So, like,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: you can change it out twice a month. So if
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: you order something— And it's like, oh, it doesn't fit.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: You can send it back and you can get a
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: new item. Oh, nice. Or if you just want like
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: a new fit, then you can just send them all
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: back and get something else halfway through the month. So
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: technically 10. That makes sense.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, that sounds like, again, you know, we all
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: spend money on things that we know it's like we
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: could justify the price of it.
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: Like if it makes you feel good. Heck yeah, do it.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: For me, it's a money saver. There's an upfront cost,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, at the end
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: of the fiscal year, I've saved money.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're not like if you have the shopping
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: addiction where it's like just buying things. And then we
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: have the other problem is where all these things go.
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: If you have them in your house, in your closet,
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: you're going to drive yourself crazy.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: Exactly. Trying to find space for it. What's another one?
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: Another thing that I really love is. I love how
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: I asked the question. but I didn't even really think
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: about it. I'm trying to get a spray tan and
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: a blow-dry endorsement. So, like, here's the thing. I will
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: invest in people. Like, for example, there are people who
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: have been a part of my beauty routine that I
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: wish I could endorse them. Because, like, for example, I'm
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: on that quest to find the perfect eyebrow lady in
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: Tampa still searching.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Um, if I could find a lady that I was like,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: she's really good at doing spray tans or whatever, I'd
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: be like, listen, you have to go to Linda.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Take my credit card. Take my credit card.
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: But I will, I will pay you however much, if
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: you say it's a $ 300 spray tan or maybe not
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: for a spray tan, spray tans I don't really give
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: that big of a fuck about, but like I spend
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: a lot of money on my hair. What do I
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: wish I could pay to indoors?
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: I do like the idea of people. Like I will
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: add that to my list is, you know, I pay
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: for a coach. Like I have a life coach in
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: my life.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: It's the greatest investment I've ever made. It's expensive.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah. It's expensive.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: It's expensive. But it was worth every single dollar.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: And I don't even know if I would still, I
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: don't mean this as like my own life, but like
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: literally in my career.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: I don't think I would be here without it. So
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: it's like changed my life financially, emotionally, relationally.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: Oh, dang.
• 40:34
  Speaker 3: All those things that it's so hard to, like when
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: you're in the beginning of the process, you're like, is
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: it worth this money?
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: You find the right one? Hell yeah.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: Come on now.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: Come on now.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: Okay. I just thought of my third one. Solid core. Duh. Oh, yeah.
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: A good gym.
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: I was going to add to that one. Like if
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: you find a good gym because you go in there.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: But you do endorse a gym.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: I do.
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: Oh, see, I'm glad that one lives by my like motto.
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: Like crunch fitness. I actually go to.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: Sometimes like you see all these celebrities that we talked
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: about that don't use their products.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: I'm there at that MF and gym every day.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: I know. I'm like kind of pissed. I'm not a
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: solid core endorser. Like I'm like, how has no one
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: made that happen for me yet? Because I feel like
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: I have enough body pictures for people to be like, oh. Because, listen,
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: I could tell you to buy a hair product all
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: day long. But, like, do I use it? You'll never know.
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: But my body? You can't hide that.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: Can't hide that.
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like, peptides aren't going to
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: do that. True. What would you like to de-influence people from?
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: What do you think is not worth it?
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: That's a good-ass question.
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: De-influence the things that I don't think are worth the money. Ooh.
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: I'm going to have to chew on this one for
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: a second.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Sit on it for a second.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Sit on it.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: Hmm.
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: Sit on it.
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: That Steve Harvey meme? Okay. I feel like I usually
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: have things that I want to de-influence people from, but
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: now that I'm thinking about it. Oh, also let me
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: add to it, Chobani. I wish Chobani would pay me
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: to endorse them.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: Have you ever reached out to any of these brands
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: that you use? Just socially.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: I think sales at my last job tried to get
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: me a Chobani endorsement.
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: You need to talk to, so you've heard her on
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: the podcast before, Alexia.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: Whole background in PR, all these connections, you should talk
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: to her on, like, how you should pitch yourself for, like.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, because those are big-ass brands, so it's harder.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: But, like, a Solidcore or a Chobani, where it's like,
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: there is a way, and you do have the following
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: for it.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: Even if it was just free product. If it was
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: free product.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: It would save me so much money if I could
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: just get free yogurt. Because I literally... I mean, sometimes,
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: if I don't have any... food in my fridge and
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: it's just yogurt like sometimes i just be pounding back yogurt.
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah and that's expensive for a couple jars of that
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: you eat it i don't know five minutes.
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: It's really great for muscle growth it's incredibly filling like
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: two of those no literally welcome to your ad chobani
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: I'm just going to send this to sales with my
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: wonky finger.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: Wonk ass.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Two of those in the morning, it's like a brick
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: sitting in your stomach. So if you're trying to like,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: not that I'm endorsing, if you're trying to like lose
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: weight or if you're on your fitness journey and you're like,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: I can't stop eating constantly, two Chobanis in the morning,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: 20 grams.
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: Done.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: It's like you're good until like one.
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: I got one that I want. I have a bone
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: to pick with a certain brand. So I'm going to
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: use this as my D influence.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: Everyone's obsession with AirPods.
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah. I will never get on the AirPod train.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: That's no.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: Well, I made the mistake of recently getting on it.
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: So I decided with all this training I'm doing, I'm
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: going to go ahead, get a new pair of headphones.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Cause I had like these little beats ones that I
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: had that were, I got a little water because I
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: was sweating in it and it just never was the same.
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: I actually just broke them the other day trying to
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: like dry it out.
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: Every single person I know that has AirPods has lost
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: their AirPods at one point too.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: Well, here's what happened.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: I got them like three weeks. I was working out
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: on the treadmill and they literally say sweat resistant. Everyone
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: works out in them.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: I don't like, yes, I sweat. I can't say I.
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: Sweat abnormally more than normal like other people. But I
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: took my AirPod out for just a second to adjust it.
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: And it fell out?
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: No, I think it got a little water in it.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: And it was just like.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: And it didn't sound right. And then it just never
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: sounded right. And all of a sudden, it doesn't make
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: any noise. And I had to take it to Best
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: Buy yesterday. And Best Buy's like, we can't even run
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: a diagnostic test on this thing. You're going to have
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: to go to the Apple store for it. So now
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: I've got to have another day going to Tampa for Apple.
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: Wired headphones are just not that bad. I know. I
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: like a wired headphone.
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: I honestly.
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: Here's another one that I will endorse that I'm gonna-
• 44:27
  Speaker 3: I had these pair of headphones that are called like
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: Shox Open Runner headphones. They're like bone conductor headphones. They're
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: meant for runners or active wear. Because they don't go
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: in your ear. And I've had them, I just can't
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: find them in my freaking apartment.
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: I know, that's the other thing, they're so easy to lose.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: But that won't happen with wired headphones. You want to
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: know why? Because you've got that wonky, like, wire hanging out. Hey,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: they're over here, they're in your purse.
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: I might go back to the wired ones because I
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: was so frustrated yesterday as, you know, they're supposed to.
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: Be the best headphones ever.
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: And they, like, broke within three weeks. And they've just
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: caused me so much of a headache.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: And they were, like, $ 250. They're ridiculous. And now I
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: don't even get to use them.
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: So de-influence.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: I'm going to de-influence people on independent coffee shop coffee.
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: Okay, now I can come back on that one, but
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: go ahead.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: I've never been to an independent coffee shop and gone. Yeah.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: This coffee's drinkable. Name one coffee shop with drinkable coffee.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: I can.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: I have plenty. I have Foxtail right here in the
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: Tampa Bay area. Local, delicious coffee. Here's what I love
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: about them too.
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: As a coffee drinker and someone that knows a little
• 45:32
  Speaker 3: bit more than the average Joe.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: Get it?
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Just call me dumb. No, no, no.
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: But like how important it is to have freshly roasted coffee.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: Listen, I like freshly roasted coffee. I just think sometimes
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: they're really bad at making it.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's a valid statement.
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: It tastes like battery acid to me.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it is too acidic.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: There is a very popular coffee shop down the street
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: from me that I walk by and I'm like, you
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: guys are faking this.
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: Ah, yeah.
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: Listen, they have great tea there. I will get their tea.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: But it's not even their tea. It's somebody else's tea
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: that they sell.
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: I think you go mainly for the vibes.
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: Like that's where I like an independent shop where it's
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: like you go in, it's pictures on the wall. People
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: with crazy tattoos and piercings. You want that vibe when
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: you go in to an independent.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: And there's never anywhere to sit either because everyone else
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: is there for the vibes. And so you're sitting there.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: You brought your laptop and you're like, well, I just
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: came to work and now I can't work.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: Now I can't work. I'm having a horrible cup of coffee.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: They always have a bad parking situation.
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: But it's actually one of those things like in another
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: life or maybe in a couple of years, like I'd
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: love to open a coffee shop.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: I'm going to be one of the independent coffee shop owners.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: Do it. Well, you could do a franchise. You could
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: do a Starbucks.
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: I do love Starbucks. I'm not against Starbucks. You don't
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: think Starbucks is too acidic?
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: Starbucks is fine because I have low expectations for Starbucks.
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: Oh, but when you go to an independent, it's because
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: it's more expensive and you don't like the taste.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: It's more expensive. You get there. I'm like, why did
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: I spend $ 8 on an Americano that tastes like the
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: bottom of my foot? You know?
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: Well, I do say you have a different way of
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: drinking coffee. You do drink it just black, so you
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: get the full.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I'm a purist. See, I would know. If you put
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: milk in it, then you could just be like, wow,
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: this milk is real milky.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, that's true. I would say.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, you know who does have really good coffee, though,
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: that I will influence you on if you're in Tampa? Yes.
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: And I stand by this. I'm a Boulan apologist. Boulan
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: is the best. I don't even know if you can
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: call it independent because they're a part of such a
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: big restaurant group. But let's just let's just say for
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: argument's sake, it's an independent. Boulan coffee and their pastries
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: are fantastic.
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: That's I can't even hate on it because I haven't
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: done it. But it's just I think I just I
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: hate on the fact that it just feels so. Bougie
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: over there. So maybe that's where I come from. But
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: I will go and have some. It just feels overpriced
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: coffee and pastry.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: It's really not overpriced. I mean, it's the same price
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: as going to Foxtail or Lucky Goat.
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but Foxtail is a nice barista that talks to me.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: So does Boulogne.
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: Okay, maybe I'll go over there and check it out.
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: Because if you're going to influence me on it, then
• 47:54
  Speaker 3: it might be worse.
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: And their pastries are really fancy.
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: And you do have good taste. That's true. You have
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: a valid taste.
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: Let me influence you on Boulogne.
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: If you've been listening to this podcast for a while,
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: you've done been influenced.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: I know. It's really not even that great. The last
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: time I went, I was like, this is fine. Yeah.
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: No, we walked by after the lightning game the other
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: night and my girlfriend and I were like, do we
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: want to go?
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: I was like, no.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: It's got a nice bar.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: It does look nice.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: If you're going to go and have a nice drink out.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: It's fun people watching.
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: It's fun to find a.
• 48:21
  Speaker 3: Place that actually is like really beautifully set up inside.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: And I have heard the burger is good.
• 48:27
  Speaker 3: Have you been to, here's what I want to know,
• 48:29
  Speaker 3: because I can't say if I'm influenced or de-influenced, by
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: the Addition Hotel.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: I would like to de-influence you from the Addition Hotel.
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: Let me be the first to tell you, fuck the Addition.
• 48:41
  Speaker 3: Oh!
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: I'm kidding. You're going to get like a $ 20 cocktail,
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: and there's going to be like nothing in it. It's
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: going to be like one shot.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: That drives me nuts.
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: And I don't know, I just think the Addition attracts
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: the worst people in Tampa. Yeah. Really? I know that's
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: a bold statement, and listen, if you like the addition,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you're the exception.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, of course.
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: You are the exception. Every time I go there, though,
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: it feels like it's all the people that would like
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: to live in Miami, that would like to live in L.A.,
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: but they can't live there.
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: For whatever reason. So now they just stay at the addition?
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: They just stay at the addition. They're at the rooftop always.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, that energy in general is typically not
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: my vibe.
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: It's very expensive. It's just a bunch of, 24-year-old daddy's money,
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: you Tampa grads.
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I guess maybe I'm just a hater because
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: I guess if I had... If I had daddy's money,
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: maybe I would go too.
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: We would. I would. And we would be less miserable.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: Maybe that's why I'm a hater on it, though. That's
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: why we're hating. It's the same drink. I get the
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: same drink.
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: I could make the same drink five times if I
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: just made it at home instead of going to the audition.
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: But I've never stayed there, so I don't even know
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: if a room is worth that money.
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: I don't think they are because Dave Portnoy- is not
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: a fan of the Tampa edition like he was there
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: now listen it's a it's a pretty hotel I know
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: a lot of people like to sit there and do
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: work they like the coffee there um the location it's
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: great but yeah that's really about it like I'd rather
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: just stay at the JW.
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah well I was gonna say if I was gonna
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: spend that money I'd rather stay at the Don Cesar
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: over on the beach.
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah well I mean if you're trying to stay
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: in channel side yeah so let me influence you on
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: the JW Marriott I've never.
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: Oh, I think I've been at the rooftop one time,
• 50:17
  Speaker 2: but I've never been.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: See, the rooftop is great.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: The rooftop is great. It's now gotten better. Like, there's
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: little things downtown, because, like....
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: This is probably the past couple years. Now it's worth
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: it to stay down there. But before, it wasn't. Yeah.
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: What the heck are you going to do down there?
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: You're going to go and just stay at your hotel.
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: To a concert?
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you go to a concert.
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: I guess if I was to live somewhere else and visit,
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: then that would be a cool experience.
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: So you live in St. Pete right now. Yes. If
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: you had to live in Tampa... Where in Tampa would
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: you move? West Shore, which is where all the 20-somethings
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: move because it's relatively inexpensive. There's a lot going on
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: down there. There's Hyde Park, which is sort of like
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: the bougie shopping mall area.
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes.
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: There's DI, where I live. That's where all the athletes
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: live and grandpas who inherited their cottage 500 years ago.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: There's Harbor Island, which is where all the late 20s,
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: early 30s dinks live. And I just effed up my Band-Aid.
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: You could technically live in Ybor if you want, or
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: you could go in more central Tampa.
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: I would go to Harbor Island.
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: I've talked about this with my girlfriend before. We're like, okay,
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: where are options? Let's just throw options at a table.
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: If it wasn't St. Pete, Harbor Island. We have friends
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: that stay on Harbor Island, and we stayed at their
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: place once to watch their pets. The greatest experience. Because
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: we would walk their dog around beautiful Harbor Island, go
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: right by the water, see all the little boats. We
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: went by like a little, you know, American Social. area
• 51:42
  Speaker 3: over there, saw the yachts, and then you're right by
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: the arena.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: You can walk to the arena. There's a beautiful Publix
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: right there in the corner. You could walk to Publix.
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: Lifetime.
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: It is. It looks nice.
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: Lifetime is a very nice and expensive gym down there.
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: Very expensive. I think it's like $ 1, 000 just to sign up.
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: But then the membership.
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: Goes down to like $ 300 a month. But to sign up,
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: it's at least like $ 1, 000 because I did look into it.
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: I'm always interested in big gyms. That's the thing I
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: don't mind spending money on. Yeah.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: If it's a gym that like you go in there,
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: you feel great. There's something for it.
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: He's like, let me influence you.
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: No, no, no. Crunch fitness, baby. All day, every day.
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: If I had just randomly moved here, I probably would
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: have picked Hyde Park, but probably Harbor Island. Like when
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: my parents kicked me out. Oh yeah. But now I've
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: lived on DI for so long that I feel like
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: DI is my neighborhood.
• 52:27
  Speaker 3: But I think you would like Harbor Island the same.
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: Cause it's, Honestly, I think it's even closer to all
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: the things that you like.
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's actually so true.
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: And it's why I like it so much is because
• 52:36
  Speaker 3: I heard the prices of some of the apartments, and.
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: It wasn't atrocious.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: No, they're really not that bad.
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're nice.
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: When we stayed at our friend's apartment, I was like,
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: this is a big apartment. And they're not paying an
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: arm and a leg. You got a beautiful view. You're
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: in the center of everything going down in downtown Tampa.
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: That it's honestly, it might be where we end up living.
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: So when you and your girlfriend move in together next year,
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: like what, where are you, where are you going to move?
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: Is she okay with staying in St. Pete?
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: Open to it.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: I think. She's now learned so much about St. Pete
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: because I'm there.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Before it was mainly Tampa, but now I've opened her
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: eyes to the beauty of St. Pete.
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: It's crazy to me that people who grew up in
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: Tampa never go over to St. Pete.
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: It's weird because it is truly that bridge. Like I
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: was joking with you about the lightning game the other day,
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: but I'm like, I don't want to drive over that bridge.
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: I just, I don't know what it is. I think
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: it's just the risk of when you're stuck on the bridge,
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: you're stuck on the bridge.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: But there's the ferry now.
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: There is the ferry.
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Now you have no excuse.
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: Now we can take the ferry over. That's true. I
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: think St. Pete is... a better vibe, better energy, chill people.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: So that would be number one. But number two would
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: be Harbor Island. Because my girlfriend did live in Tampa
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: for years and loved it. Truly thrived. And now there's
• 53:50
  Speaker 3: so much more to do down there. I would be
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: okay with it. I just like the energy of St.
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: Pete more.
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know what you would do in Tampa.
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: I don't either.
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: You specifically.
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: Correct. I don't either. I'm like, that's, I don't know
• 54:01
  Speaker 2: if I fit that energy.
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 54:03
  Speaker 3: I'm like a, I like to walk down Central, pop
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: into a coffee shop, maybe have a go a little
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: like cheap sandwich somewhere and then be good to go.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: Like that's, I don't know. I love St.
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: Pete.
• 54:13
  Speaker 2: I would live in St.
• 54:13
  Speaker 3: Pete for the rest of my life. I could see
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: myself getting a house, having a family right there in St.
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: Pete. Hell yeah, brother.
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: But maybe Harbor Island for a little bit to live
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: the downtown life.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: No, because I have a feeling she'll probably just move
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: wherever you want to move.
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: Well, it's now the conversation of, like I said, options.
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: We're in just the very beginning of the conversation.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: Options.
• 54:32
  Speaker 3: What could that look like? Where would you want to
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: go if the world was your oyster? Let's see anything
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: out there.
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: Because who knows? Then maybe go up the coast. Palm Harbor.
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: Safety Harbor. Dunedin. All very pretty areas.
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: You also just got to kind of keep it by work.
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: Just like a little bit.
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: I don't want to drive an hour every day like
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: a lot of our coworkers live up in Wesley Chapel
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: and Lutes.
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: You could not. Gun to my head. Don't make me
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: move to Wesley Chapel. That's where all the Bucks players live.
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, well, that's true, because I guess if you
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: do get up, it's a quicker drive down to where
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: they practice.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but have you driven through Wesley Chapel? I'm like,
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: there's nothing here except for chain restaurants.
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a ton of chain restaurants and the big old mall.
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can get a lot of land there,
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: so I get where they want to move there, but,
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: you know, if I'm a Bucs player making a million
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: or whatever a year, I'm not moving off Wesley Chapel.
• 55:18
  Speaker 3: I guess if you have a family, it's better, because
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: a lot of friends that I have that started having families,
• 55:22
  Speaker 3: that's where they moved, to get, like, a reasonably priced house,
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: because if you're looking in Tampa and St.
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: Pete, you're like, The heck?
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: The real estate sucks.
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's horrible. I don't think it's going to get better.
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: It's only going to get worse. Until hurricanes hit, then
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: you might be able to get a good deal.
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: I was thinking, I said this a couple podcasts ago, like,
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: you know, maybe one day it's even further than Lutes.
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: Maybe it's like Spring Hill. Get a little land, a
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: couple goats, a couple chickens, and even a little pig.
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: Live your dream, King.
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: It's our life. Go ahead and live it. You've now
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: been influenced.
• 55:51

• 55:53

• 56:07
  Speaker 1: Yeehaw. Oh, yeah. We won't have an episode until Monday,
• 56:10
