  Speaker 2: Hi Catherine, Hi Chelsea, Hi, how are you doing.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: I gotta tell you I need a little bit of
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: marital advice. I just found out something my husband did
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: that is maybe disagreeable to me.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: So we're heavy.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Didn't have anything to do with hard boiled eggs.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: No, but I will say my mom came to visit
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: last week and within twenty four hours she made two
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: separate dishes with hard boiled eggs, so I was very happy.
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: Hi.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: The irony with how many hard boiled eggs I now
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: consume on a daily basis versus my initial reaction to
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: your hard boiled eggs on a plane, which I'm still against. Obviously,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: I have this understand against that. Oh, by the way,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: did you hear the news that United is calling out
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: passengers that talk on their phones or listen to podcasts
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: or any sort of media without headphones? You'll get moved
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: off their flight. So when you go United Airlines, way
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: to go.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Yes, that's incredible, that's incredible, And pretty soon they'll be
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: removing people with hard bold eggs.
• 2:12
  Speaker 6: I'm pretty sure I think that hard boiled eggs are
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: kind of like LSD any kind of psychedelics where it's
• 2:16
  Speaker 6: like set and setting. You know, you have to have
• 2:18
  Speaker 6: the right place, right time.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Not not true. I was. I was worried when my
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: k new when Cowboy came to visit me for the
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: first time.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, I hope he likes
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: eggs because they're gonna be everywhere. And not only that,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I eat four hard boiled egg whites and one yolk
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: and it's sad to stop giving all the yolks to
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Doug because of his own cholesterol issues. I was like,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: I'm kill my fucking dog with the plaque with heart plaque.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: So Cowboy loves hard boiled eggs just as much as
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: And I'm sure Doug Oh also does. Speaking of Cowboy,
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: you kind of like hard launched like I did not.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I did not hard launch it, and hard launch, I mean,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: it would be very rude to go on vacation with
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: someone several times of who I'm dating and only post
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: pictures of myself. That is unacceptable. So I just am
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: trying to slip them in there. It's not a hard launch.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: That's who I'm dating.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I'm having a good time in my life. This is
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: the guy that I'm with right now. There's nothing to announce.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: I'm just doing my thing and trying to be inclusive
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: and represent what I'm actually doing instead of being secretive
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: for no reason.
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: Sharing an igloo together, Yes.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: We're sharing iglus together. Yes, we've shared a lot more
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: than that.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: And yeah, flying igloos, saunas and karaoke song yeah, well
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: minus the karaoke is the karayok.
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: I think that that's I mean good, I'm glad you're
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: having fun.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: I'm glad that's great.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I just don't want to be sultra private or take
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: myself too seriously.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: I don't care and I don't want. I don't know.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I just am trying to be real.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: I'm real as a person who you know, enjoys celebrity
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: culture and all that stuff. Like I think that that's great,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Like so many people are so like it's very very
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: hidden until it's not.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's like I don't want it just because
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: of my relationship in the past that have been public
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: and be like, oh no, doing that again.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: I don't care.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: I really just don't care. There's enough shit going on
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: in the world.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: I want to spread joy, love and happiness, and that's
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: what I'm feeling, so I want people to feel it
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: as well.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: I do have to tell you lately, I've been hearing
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: your voice in my head. Anytime I feel like scared
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: to do something or nervous about something, I just hear
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: your voice in my head saying like the world is
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: about to end, so just like who cares for it?
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: But wait, you did finish your marital problem with Brad.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: Oh up, So let's go back to it.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Brad.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: You need to get back on the mic because I
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: need to talk about something that you have done.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Hold on, let him run back.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: To show your face, Brad please.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Okay, So you need to tell me if I need
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: to move on from my marriage because we have some
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: people doing some work at the backyard right now. I
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: mean it's like hard work. They're like tearing up some
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: concrete and stuff. And I said to Brad this morning,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: I go, oh, we should tell them they can use
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: the bathroom inside if they need to use the bathroom.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: And he said, oh, I just told them they could
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: pee behind the bush out back.
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: I mean they're guys that we don't need them track
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: and mud through the house.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: That is really funny outside the man.
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: Yes, well they're only here for like a day. They
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: didn't bring a porta potty.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Well I think that's actually nice because I think
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: men will know where men want to go to the bathroom.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: It's not like women can pretend to know what men
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: are their desires are. I'm sure they would rather pee
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: outside than come into your house. I worry about not
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: making a mess, you know what I mean. So I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: understand your initial shock, Catherine, but I think we can
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: let Brad off the hook.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I think he did the right thing. Actually, thank you
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: He was he said, I don't want to use your
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: inside bathroom?
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Okay better.
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: I was like, well, there's a bush up back in
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: the corner. Go behind that. No one will ever see.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: You, no harm and unless you go out into that
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: area of the bush, Catherine, and then rub your based
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: around in the grass, So there's nothing for you to
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: be concerned about.
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: Where the dogs go. It's I mean it is, that's where.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: The dogs go. So they're going to have some fun
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: smells to smell.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Great wonderful.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: So that's a nice treat for them. You're off the hook.
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: You're off. Thank you for your vote of confidence.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: Well, Chelsea, I have an update, and this is from Dwayne.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: It's a little long, it's cut down, but it's it's
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: you know, still okay.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: I'm still gonna be long. Brace yourself. So Dwayne had
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: called in on a mini show.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: Yes, actually he's wondering about creatine and how many hard
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Bold eggs he should eat.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Version's already on the right program, whatever that program is.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: He called in on a Minnesota about his mom's deadbeat
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: boyfriend and mom was like older about to have some
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: hip replacement surgery and so Dwayne.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: Had to go deal with the boyfriend.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: So he says, Hi, Chelsea, just wanted to give you
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: an update on how things have gone since getting your advice.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Before my mom, now eighty one, could have her hip
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: replacement surgery, she had to have some tests done to
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: make sure it was safe for her to go under anesthesia.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: Long story short, she chose not to have the surgery
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: due to her age and potential risks. As a result,
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: she'll continue to use her walker and eventually moved to
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: a wheelchair. I took your vice and use these surgeries
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: to try and talk her into selling her home and
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: moving to a senior community. No luck there at all.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: I explained how she would keep her independence and with
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: the services available at these fifty five plus communities, she
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: may even feel more independent along with having a better
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: quality of life. After visiting her a couple months ago,
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: I tried selling this to her a bit more because
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: I was able to see she's only able to keep
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: up with some of the housekeeping, not to mention the
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: difficulty of stars for the second floor.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: She would still not budge.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: Bob the boyfriend is still around, and while he does
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: help with some things like shoveling snow and mowing the lawn,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: he doesn't.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: Clean the house.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: He's very capable, but no, she still feels he's better
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: than nothing. On the upside, though, I did talk her
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: into taking your advice of going to an elder law
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: attorney who got everything in order for us.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Great place me.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, this has a good a good swing here.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: She placed me as her beneficiary and power of attorney
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: for both medical and financial.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: She also had a lawyer write up a.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: Sworn and notarized affidavit stating that her and Bob were
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: just friends living together and she does not recognize them
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: being in civil union of any kind, including common law marriage.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: Which is like, I didn't even know you could do that.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: That's awesome.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: I also spoke with the attorney on details so I
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: could be assured that if anything did happen to my
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: mom that Bob had no rights to anything he shouldn't.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: She confirmed for me that he is not on any
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: financial accounts and my mom is safe. As for the house,
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: that's also ironclad protected from him taking possession, and I'm
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: only required to give him thirty days to vacate.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: Well, I hope that time is far in the future.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: I have to admit that I look forward to saying
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: those four magical words to him, get the fuck out.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: Thank you so much for not only the advice you
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: gave me, but also your advocacy, educating, entertaining, and incredible humor.
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: Dwyane.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Oh thanks, Dwayne. I love that that.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: Thank you.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so everything's working out pretty well there. And yeah,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: mom's mom's protected financially, which is great, so good.
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: I love that.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I love when our parents are protected financially exactly the
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: female ones.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I also love that he went to a
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: female lawyer, like great, wonderful one.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exact.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: We love a she when we hear about a layer.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: Okay, So our collor today is Christina and she's calling
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: in from Espagna.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Oh okay, she.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: Says, dear Chelsea. My name's Christina and I'm a thirty
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: five year old American that's been living abroad for nine years.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: I have lived and worked all over the world, from
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Vietnam to Australia and now I currently live in Spain.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: I absolutely love my nomadic lifestyle. I've learned so much
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: about the world, and I've grown so much as a person,
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: and I feel like I'm a better person because of it.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: But last year, after a trip to Colorado to visit
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: my family, I found myself considering a move back to
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: the United States to be closer to them. My parents
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: are getting older and it's hard to see them age.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: I want to spend more time with them while they're
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: still sprightly. I miss my two year old niece, and
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: I especially miss my sister, who's pregnant again with boy
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: do in the spring. I want to be a good
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: auntie and be around to watch my niece and nephew
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: grow up. I'm very nervous, however, about leaving my safe,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: comfortable life in Europe where there are no guns. I'm
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: a teacher, free healthcare and affordable cost of living and
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: a great work life balance to move back into Trump's America?
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: Am I crazy to abandon the life I've built here?
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: Thank you, ladies for all you do. Your podcast keeps
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: me sane and it's the craziness of the world.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Christina Hi, Christina Hi.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Normally I would say, go be with your family, But honestly,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I would not move to the United States at this
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: stage in the game.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: I really just would not. It's not worth it.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: It's too ugly, it's too upsetting. You're leaving a peaceful place.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I think I just hold on and see what happens,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: and hopefully things start to turn around after the midterms,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: and if not, then then you're gonna have to wait
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: another couple of years. But I honestly just would not
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: come to the United States. It's like, it's like the
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: worst decision you could make.
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: That's my dilemma. I know, That's what I feel like.
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: Most sensible people would say.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: Christina, are your folks having any health crises right now?
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Are they sort of like having trouble with daily live
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: activities of daily living or is it sort of stable
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: at the moment.
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: They're fine, They're not like so old you know that
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: they need sure somebody to be helping them all the time.
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: But you know, I just kind of think about when
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: am I finally going to come back.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: Is it going to be like when one of them.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: Needs a caretaker or what if something happens and I'm
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: not around. I don't know. I just I haven't felt
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: this feeling of you know, last year, I went to
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: visit and I felt like I didn't want to leave
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: because I didn't want to leave my sister.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: I didn't want to leave my family.
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: And I've never felt that in all of these years
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: of living overseas. So it's just kind of been in
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: my head and I'm not sure what to do.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously, you know, if that's feeling is more powerful
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: than the feeling of trepidation, I guess to move to
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: the States, then you should go with that feeling. But
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: I just would never move to the States right now,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: no matter what.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: I wonder if there is there an opportunity right now
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: for you to like take a month or six weeks
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: and come visit, so you're not like moving your whole life,
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: but you can come spend some quality time with your
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: folks and with your sister, like maybe around the time
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: the baby comes, or maybe when they get a little
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: more settled.
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm a teacher, so I have to wait until
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: the end of the school year, which is in June.
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: So I could go in the summer.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds more reasonable.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Make it a temporary trip rather than a permanent one,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: you know, and taste it out. Maybe you go and
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: like things that are calmed down, you know, maybe like
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: things will who knows what's going to happen next. That's
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: the state that everyone is that I feel so uncomfortable about.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: It's just like it's very destabilizing and you know, you
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: don't know what is going to happen next. So more
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: information is better and Spain is safe.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Stay there right.
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, it's very safe.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll be there soon.
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: Oh good, good good.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: I think. Also, because you're a teacher and you have
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: a year that you're committed to when you're teaching in class,
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: one thing you might do is like maybe you wait
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: till next year to do this, but you might see
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: like if you can get a job lined up here,
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: or if you can get some interviews, and if you
• 12:59

• 14:21
  Speaker 3: from Lisa who for anybody who is not wanting to
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: live in the United States anymore for a lot of reasons.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Lisa says, Hello, wanted to reach out and share with
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: you something I hope you can use your platform to
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: share and help others with, especially with this Kansas law
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: affecting the trans community. I'm a part of a large
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: group of volunteers who put together a website full of
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: resources to help vulnerable people leave the United States or
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: at least make backup plans for their families if and
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: when things get worse. The website is called help Me Leave.
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: It's for folks who are scared by the anti LGBTQ
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: rules and laws taking place, the ice targeting, etc. Listeners
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: can find out more at www dot help Me Leave
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: dot U and thank you for using your platform to
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: speak up and out against this bullshit administration. Cheers Lisa.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: So I thought that was like very interesting that we
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: got that email this week.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: Well, talking to someone who's.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Considering a move back to this particular shit show. All right,
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: well we'll wrap up with a little quickie. This person says,
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: Dear Chelsea, I'm writing this email in hopes that you
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: can provide some suggestions patients, or some creative alternative. I
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: sit next to a mail of course coworker who clears
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: his throat incessantly for about an hour after lunch every
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: single day.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: That is called acid reflux.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: Exactly.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: We've counted, and it can be upwards of thirty eight
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: throat clears in twenty minutes. Myself and a few surrounding
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: coworkers have made subtle and not so subtle comments, think
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: handing him mint, offering him to get water, straight up
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: asking are you okay over there? He has every excuse
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: in the book, from dust, dirt, roads, greasy or spicy foods, allergies.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: A few of us even went to HR with no resolution.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: We're hoping his desk will be moved, but he has seniority,
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: therefore it's not happening. I put in air pods and
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: plast music or your podcast, and I can hear him
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: over it. I've run out of ideas on how to
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: get my point across and don't see much help coming
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: for management.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: Any suggestions or do. I just need to deal with it.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: You just need to have a direct conversation with him.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: Just make it be about yourself or your husband, like, oh,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: my boyfriend went through this, so I know, or I
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: went through this.
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: I know that's good.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: You have acid reflex. He has acid reflex. I also
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: have acid reflex. So if I spoke too many joints,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: my friends have to sit around and listen to me go.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: It's so fucking annoying and I feel terrible. It doesn't
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: stop me, but sometimes it does stop me.
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: Sometimes instagummies for a while.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: I do, I do.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: I try not to, you know, like when I start
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: clearing my throat, I'm like, this is a very annoying
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: to people. So I think you just have a direct
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: conversation and speak from experience, Like even if it's a lie,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: just say, oh, you know, my husband dealt with this.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I think you have acid reflex, and there are ways
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: to help you know. It is kind of a it's
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: kind of annoying to hear someone clear the throat all
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: the time.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Like it's really distracted when I'm trying to get my
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: work done.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: If there's something you can do about it, there's something
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: you can do about it. I take prevacid, and there's
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: also this like vanilla extract online that you can get
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: that like kind of it's I mean, acid reflex really
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: is reactive to certain types of food and spices and
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: all that stuff. But it's also when you lie down
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: and it like kind of comes alive. But there's acid
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: reflex and then there's like another component of acid refracts.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: So it could be any of those things.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: But me and my girlfriend who's here right now in
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Whistler with me, she and I have had.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: A long talks about that real sexy stuff going on
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: over here.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: Give some tombs at your desk, and like, if all
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: those pills get some noise canceling headphones because they really
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: do help.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, noise canceling headphones are good, and that's a
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: good idea. And once you yeah, once he walks around
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: an office and sees everyone in noise canceling headphones, yeah,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: then I guess there's the situation that you have to
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: deal with.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: And then send him the bill for the headphones. Well
• 17:53
