  Speaker 1: And welcome to a new episode of Scotty and Abby Unfiltered.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: There's been so many things going on behind the scenes
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: that whether it's travel or me nearly being murdered in
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the middle.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Of a Publix, We got to talk about some things.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Oh, no.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Well, I want to focus on you first, though.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: I feel like we've been talking a lot about me.
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: I feel bad.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: I know, but you, no, no, no. Your life is interesting.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: My life is like, la-da-da, what did I do? I
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: cooked the crazy salmon at home.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Do you want to share the salmon recipe? The people
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: yearn for their omega-3s.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. I am not a cook, and
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: so I did share that video on Instagram.
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: And if you just go by it, you're like, okay,
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: here's another cooking video.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Y'all, the last time I tried to, like, make a meal, like,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: I literally almost lit my house on fire.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Like, that's the level of cooking I am. But it's
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: kind of.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Funny that— and this comes up in different ways. Like, as
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: you get older, new interests start to pop up. I've
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: started to appreciate, like.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Birds, for example, more. That's a stupid random one.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: I have heard that as you get older, you start
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: to love birds. And I sort of wonder— because you know
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: how people compare— Or not compare. When somebody passes, they're like, oh, yeah,
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: I saw my Mimi in a blue jay. And you're like, what? Yeah,
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: blue jays was our thing or whatever. So I almost
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: wonder if it's like the closer you get to death.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Maybe this is morbid. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: I like this.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: The closer you get to death, the more interested you
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: are in birds because like souls are birds.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: I just think know so many people who view nature
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: as people who pass.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: I definitely do. Like anytime I see like a butterfly,
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, that's a past. That's somebody I lost.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Or like a bird.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: And here's the thing because it sounds so woo-woo. It's
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: how they fly around you or like when they pop
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: up because I'll be thinking about something and all of
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: a sudden it's like, oh, a butterfly will go by.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, and it sounds woo woo and maybe
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: it has nothing to do with it. But that little belief,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: it gives you a little bit of peace and you're like,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: you know what? Even if it's nothing, I like to
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: think it's something. Yeah.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Why not have a little bit of peace?
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: If it keeps you going, then it keeps you going.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: And so that was something I noticed that I started
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: enjoying more.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: But in this relationship with Brianda, all these new interests
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: start popping up. Like I've never had a desire to cook.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: But all of a sudden there's like this charge in
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: me that's like, you need to learn how to cook.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: You need to take care of your partner. She always
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: takes care of you. What could you whip up? What
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: kind of effort could you show? And so that's what
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: was happening. She was working late over at our station
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: over here, Fox 13. And so I was like, all right,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I'm going to have a dinner ready to go. And
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: thank goodness for my assistant, ChachiBT, because you ask it
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: anything and it's like, all right, Scott, I know you're
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: sucking at cooking. Here's the easiest recipe, but also it's
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: going to taste delicious. What I found funny, though, is
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: those little bits of effort in cooking go a long way.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Like I'm not somebody that chops up an onion or
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: a tomato or mince a garlic, but putting all that together.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: And then I made a sauce. I looked at myself
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: at the end of it. I was like, who the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: hell am I?
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: Come on, Guy Fieri.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Who am I becoming?
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: And I honestly, this is where I was like kind
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: of blown away. I enjoyed it. It wasn't like, oh,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: I got to do this.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: I was like, not only do I get to do
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: this for my partner, I actually enjoyed the process of cooking.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: And it felt good to have that meal done at
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: the end of it and be like, look what I created. Yeah.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: I'm not really like an artsy like draw, clay.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Paint, but maybe.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Maybe.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'm becoming a cook.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: There's a certain art to cooking.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: There really is. I was in there listening to music,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: stirring it up. The video's up on my Instagram, at
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Scott Tavlin.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: You can take a look.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Honestly, it came out as good as the picture looked
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: on ChatGPT.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm glad that it worked out.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Thank you. That's what's been going on with my life.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Well, love that for you. So great.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: It has not been the same since you got home.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: No, no. But I feel I feel bad. I was
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: listening back because I always listen to podcasts back that
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: we do. And I've always described as sort of like
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: listening to an or watching an athlete. Like watching your highlights.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like watching film.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, God, some of the ones I put
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: out recently are just so... Well, I.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Mean, the whole point of this thing is like just
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: this is your experience.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: I know, but.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: There will be chapters of like lols and highs.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: All of it.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: But I hate that. I hate that people have to
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: listen to me be like wah-wah because I just do
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: not want to be the wah-wah girl. That's not who
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: I am.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Well, what's some things that are wee-wee?
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Well, I got to go to Italy, but we talked
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: about Italy yesterday. I feel bad. I was like so
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: exhausted yesterday. I don't know why I've just been completely
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: wiped out from this trip, which I don't understand because
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: I slept more on this trip than I ever have.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: On previous vacations, I slept a little bit on the plane.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I wasn't hungover. But I got home yesterday and I
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: went to go record my Substack Trampovay Thursday or Trampovay Monday. See,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: I don't even know what day it is. Um, and
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I was like, let me just put my head down
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: for a little bit cause I'm kind of tired. I
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: woke up, it was four hours later.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Oh my God.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I was like, I don't know what happened, but, um,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: I was knocked out for half the day yesterday.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Do you think it could be the fact that you
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: literally hosted an entire trip? Like, and I say that
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: not even like sarcastically, but like your energy is so
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: much of, how the group is going, where we're going next.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Like you're the one that's in charge of that group.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: So I know for myself, when I go and I
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: speak at an event or I'm emceeing, I love it.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: It's my passion and it's literally giving your 100% on hours.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: And so as soon as I'm done, I'm like. drop
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: and I just pass out. I literally pass out for hours.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: It's possible. This trip wasn't particularly stressful for me. I've
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: been in stressful situations. I always joke about Ferry Gate.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Ferry Gate was just such a tough day for me
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: last year because it was this day that we were
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: all waiting for where we were going to get to
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: go on a boat in Greece and then it turned
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: out to be a ferry. And I don't know if
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: you've ever been surrounded by 24 angry women, but just
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: like not the vibe. And I'm kind of overreacting, but
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: like it was just I would it was from that
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: moment on that I was like, I never want to
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: feel that way on a trip. So I was very
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: excited going into Italy because I just worked. I. I
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: really did a lot of mental gymnastics thinking about how
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: I could engineer the perfect itinerary. And I really do
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: think I got close. Like, if I had to rate myself,
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: this was probably like a 92% on the perfect scale.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: That's damn good.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I'm constantly on the pursuit of perfecting the girls trip.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: And this, I think, is the closest I've gotten. But
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: I still think there are things I would like to
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: socially engineer for the next ones.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, I like that.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Because you do get to learn how a group... It's
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: like psychology. How does the group function and what can
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: I get the most... Honestly, I love doing that with
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: like when I go out to these events, using that
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: little bit that you learn from a group, like how
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: can I get them at their peak moment? How can
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: I make sure that having the best time or their
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: energy is at the absolute highest point? Yes. And it
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: kind of sounds like it sounds wild because it sounds
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: like you're manipulating.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: No, it's like being a DJ. Sort of like how
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: like when do I get the beats? When do I
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: get the energy on certain days? And you can never
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: really you can get as close as you can based
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: off the only match. like the math you're doing in
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: your head, but also then you get a group of
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: girls that you've never met before. Some of them you
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: have met before, but then you also don't know how
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: they're going to interact with other girls. And this group definitely,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: and when I say behaved, I don't mean it in
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: like a condescending way. This group had different social, um,
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: I'll use the word behave, but that sounds like really condescending.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: It had different behaviors than I was anticipating.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: On a lot of my trips, a lot of the
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: girls like want to go out, go out, go out,
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: go out.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: Party, party.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: Party, party. This was not a very party. The last
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: couple trips I've had have not been very party, party,
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: which is fine.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: But this trip was engineered that if you wanted to party, party,
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: you could. And this specific city wasn't super party, party.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: And this group wasn't specific party, party. So I'm like, okay,
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: maybe my quote unquote clientele is changing and I need
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: to now pivot to where it's more. less about going
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: out at night. They like more cocktail bars than pubs.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: And maybe it's just because there were no pubs that
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: were super rowdy. typically we'll find a place that's really
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: fun to dance at. And that's why girls like to
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: stay out super late. We couldn't really, we didn't really
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: find that when we were in Sorrento, unfortunately.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I haven't known of that place to be like
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: a going out late kind of spot.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: And they, they definitely do have places like we found
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: one club towards the end of the, the trip. We
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: found a couple of pubs that were fun, but we
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: didn't quite catch our stride in the nightlife. And I
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: think that has a little bit to do with just
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: the crowds I'm attracting are a little bit more mature.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: Not that, listen, I like to go out. So I'm
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: not saying if you do like to go out, it's immature,
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: but like more of the girls really love a cocktail
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: bar and finding.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: We could sit and have a conversation over a nice martini.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: So now I can move that. I can take that
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: moving forward to be like, okay, the girls more like
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: they like more of a cocktail vibe rather than a pub.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I like, you know, what's different though, is sometimes you
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: go on these trips and you could just tell that
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the people that put it together, they put no energy
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: into it.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: They put no effort.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Like you're putting a lot of effort To make sure
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: that it fits the vibe of what your people want.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because, I mean, I'm on the trip, too. I
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: want to have a good time.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: So if I don't have a good time, like, is
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: anybody else going to have a good time? And so, yeah,
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: with this trip, and I talked a little bit about
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: this on my sub stack of the things I want
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: to change. Or not change, but there's just things I'm
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: going to pivot to moving forward. But, yeah, every group
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: is different. Every city is different. It teaches you something
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: different about yourself. your organization business to an extent. So yeah,
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: I'm excited because now I'm planning for 2027. I'm like,
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: where do I want to go next? That's the hard thing.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't want to pick the wrong destination
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: that nobody wants to go to.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: That's, I mean, you could almost, maybe you don't want to,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: but you could repeat some of these places where it's,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: some people are seeing the trip and they're like, I
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: want to go on that next.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Like seeing the Amalfi Coast, I was like, I want
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: to go on to that next.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I want to go on to next. Like
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: literally if I could repeat, I think I would do
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: some things differently. I don't know. I liked being based
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: in Sorrento cause it's the bigger city close and like,
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: it's a good place to be based. Um, but I
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: think if I was going to do it again, maybe
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: I'd do it again, but a little bit bougier. Like
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: maybe I'd pick a nice hotel in Amalfi or I
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: didn't really like Positano, but Positano does have good nightlife.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: So I do wonder, I'm like, would it have been
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: better to be based in Positano? So, we could have
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: some of those more unifying moments on nights out. I
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: don't know. Um, so yeah.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Do you think you're going to be doing more trips
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: as the years go on? Like, has it always been,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: cause what has it been this year? Has it been
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: two trips?
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: I did one in December. I did one in January
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: and then you did the one here and then I
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: did the Tampa one and then I did this one.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Wow. Okay.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: So you had three, so I had three. And so I,
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: kind of want to add on a trip every year.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: So I'm like, I'll do four next year, I think.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: You're just going to be living on the road.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: I'm just going to be living on the road.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Sounds amazing.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: No, I mean, yeah.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: As long as people keep signing up, I'll keep doing it.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: And I think this trip went well enough that I
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: think some people will come back, which is why I'm
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: not going to immediately repeat the Amalfi Coast. Some places
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: that I'm thinking about. I, I like if I had
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: it my way, like if every, if we were just
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: going to take the same group and do everything again
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: and everyone's going to come back again, I would like
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: to do the South of France. Um, cause I think
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: it's similar to the Amalfi coast, but a little bit different.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: Like it, it'll have similar vibes to the trip we
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: just went on, but different scenery. That makes sense. And
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: I really liked the trip that we went on. So
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: I'm like, let's just do that again. But in France, um,
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: I put out a survey yesterday. I can pull it up. Um,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: cause I was asking some of my travelers, I'm like,
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: where would you want to go next year?
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: And a good gauge of it.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Cause I saw a couple of people before you went
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: and you did a little, ask me anything on instagram
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: yes yes a lot of the the gays were like
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: ah hello.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: The gays want to go but i'm trying to figure
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: out how to make that work logistically because i have
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: a lot of like legal paperwork oh that is like
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: more forward-facing for a girl's trip i'm like i gotta
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: change that and you.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Gotta get the lawyers involved i gotta get the lawyers
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: involved think about all these things that get involved with this.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah trust me your girl is prepared so anyway one
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: of the questions i asked my repeat travelers was so
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: what places do you want to travel to in the
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: next two years and so here's what they said One
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: person said Switzerland and France, which is great because those
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: are the two that are on my bucket list. I
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: would like to do Switzerland and I would like to
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: do South of France. Someone said anywhere in France, London,
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: Martha's Vineyard, which I think I'll do.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I've heard so many things about Martha's. Okay, so that's
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: in Nantucket. Because I've heard it, but I don't know
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: what it is. Is it literally just a vineyard?
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: So Martha's Vineyard is just the name of another island.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: So Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard, and is there another one?
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I can't remember.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: Or like Cape Cod. There are two islands right off
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: the Cape.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Gotcha.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Scottsdale is like a very fun Bachelorette vibe. Someone said Scottsdale.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: I would like to do Sedona, which is outside of Scottsdale.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: I think actually that would be really, really fun is
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: to be... to do like a couple fun party nights
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: in Scottsdale and then do like a wellness retreat in Sedona.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Look at you. You are getting earthy over here.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I would, I would like to do that.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: That would be an expensive trip. So that might have
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: to be a 2028. Yeah.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: 2028.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Um, two people actually said Croatia, which I thought was
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: interesting because I considered Croatia, but I didn't know if
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: people would be excited enough to go to sign up. Yeah.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Like it sounds cool, but Over Italy?
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: I don't think so.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: Well, not over Italy. I don't know about over France.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: But some people have already been to France. They're like, well,
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: I want to go somewhere different.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: Someone said Brazil, Switzerland again, and then Australia, New Zealand.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Oh, man, that'd be a big trip. That'd be a
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: big trip. That would be crazy.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: Someone said England, Spain. I almost did a trip to
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Barcelona this year, but the company I was working with
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: just kind of fumbled the bag, quite honestly. Germany, I'd
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: be interested to see some castles.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Oh, that would be nice.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I've heard Germany is very pretty.
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would like to do Christmas markets in Germany.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: That's what I had friends that did that, and they
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: loved it.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: The problem is with Christmas markets is you have to
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: plan them super far in advance. So... I saw that
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: and I was like, maybe we should do Germany in
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: December because I'm not going to Quebec City anymore this year.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: I'm going to wait until next year.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: Oh, gotcha.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: I'm like, maybe we should do that. But then I
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: remember last year trying to plan that and you couldn't
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: do it this late.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Because it's already, what is it, just booked up?
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. You have to do it like a year
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: in advance.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. I know.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: It's so annoying.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: See, I was thinking about where I wanted to travel next.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: And we're doing, so my girlfriend and I, we decided,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: I think I said that, we're doing Mexico in January.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: No, no, you didn't tell me that.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: We're doing the wellness retreat together.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes, you did tell me that, yeah.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: So last year I went to El Salvador. I convinced
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: her to come along with me so we could go
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: on the ayahuasca trip together.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Love that. Nothing like getting high with your lady.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: Going on a trip. Super pumped for that because I
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: think that's going to be an awesome opportunity to just
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: fully disconnect.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: A trip on a trip.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: A trip on a trip.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: And then I don't believe we have anything else planned
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: for 2027.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: You got to.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: Use that, that timeshare.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Well, here's actually why I bring it up because I,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping, I don't know. I think either my ex
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: still listens to this or maybe doesn't, but like she
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: hasn't charged me for the last month. So either I'm
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: not on duty for paying that thing anymore.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: And like, we've come to grips that this is yours.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: I don't want to be on it.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: But don't you want to return on your investment though?
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Like you don't want to go on any vacations that
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: you got.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: You want to, you want me to be honest? I'm
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: good walking away.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: Really? Yeah.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Cause it's just like one of those things where
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I'm like, that's a mistake. I learned my lesson.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: I will walk away.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: It's like the thing with like, it's like the dog.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Like I am now, like I haven't seen, you know,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: the dog that I was like helping raise in months.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: And, honestly, that's for the best. And I was thinking
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: about it. I was like, gosh, man, that's tough. And
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I know that's not my dog anymore. And I also
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: have to do this for myself of like, I have
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: to walk away because it gets, it's just hard. Like
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: I care for the animal. I care about the money
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: that I lost and the best thing I can do
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: to help heal up some of those wounds.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Just walk away.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: Let that money be gone.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: It's frustrating because I'm like, damn it, man. I really
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: wanted to use it.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: I think she just forgot though.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: I do too.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Like, I think it's going to be one of those
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: things where it's like, oh, but I don't know though.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Cause you get that hit on your credit card. You
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: look for the person that's going to help pay half
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: of it.
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Because that was the only hard conversation I have left.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Like so far on the podcast, I've talked about like
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: how I've had to step away from the Alaska ship
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: that was over the summer. I've had to have a
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: big conversation with a friend that, About like why we
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: haven't been talking. I had to message a friend about
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: a wedding that I'm going to. The last message I
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: have is like figuring out this vacation club. And just
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: saying I want to walk away. And I need to
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: find a way that we can do it like.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: What's the word?
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Amicably.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: Amicably.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: That one. Yeah.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I want to be able to just be like I'm
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: walking away. I don't want any part of it anymore.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Does because technically I could I could just never pay
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: again that's the effed.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Up thing to do yeah but you're not gonna do
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: that I'm not.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah that's not me I will continue paying if that's
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: the route that we need to go down I just
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: really rather not I rather not even have anything to
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: do with it lose my money take all the vacations
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: that you want using that package because I'm not using
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: it I'm literally going on other trips that I'm not
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: using it so that's kind of dumb I know so
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: that's the last conversation I need to have but if
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: all goes through like I haven't gotten a request and
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: we are like halfway in the month Okay. So I'm
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: kind of looking at it as like maybe we came
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: to grips without even having to talk.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's just ignore it. That'll work. That's
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: always a good plan.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: No, I'm sure we'll have a conversation for it. And
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: there's no beef. I think that's the biggest thing. I
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: don't want that to be something that's thought of like
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: there's bad blood between. No, there's not. I just go
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: separate ways.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: No, I was talking to your ex while I was
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: on vacation in Italy because she posted about Drew and
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Melody from Big Brother.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: She posted about them and I was like, oh my God, finally.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: I thought it was just me on TikTok watching these two.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: So what, you reached out to her?
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: Well, no, I just like swiped up. I was like,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: oh my God, I love them. And she doesn't like them.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: And so I was like, oh, end of conversation. But
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: if you haven't been watching Big Brother, which I've only
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: been watching it through TikTok, there's these, it is the
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: buzziest thing I've ever seen. It's these two house guests
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: on Big Brother, which if you don't know what Big
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: Brother is, I don't really know what Big Brother is.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Nobody does.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: It's like 20 people. They put them in a house
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: and somebody gets like a million dollars at the end.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: So they're just sitting in this house for months on end.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: And there's these two house guests that are trying to
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: not have a showmance because apparently that's not good for
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: your gameplay. And so they're just in this situationship where
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: they won't kiss, but they're just kind of like yearning
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: for each other. It is the most romantic shit I've
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: ever seen in my life.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: Yes, it is. So I have never seen such earnest
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: desire for someone, but it's not like sexual. It's just
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: like It's just so pure. It is just the definition
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: of a situation. Like, you know when you're just dating
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: someone and, like, all you really do is just, like,
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: hang out at your house and just sort of, like,
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: kind of mess with each other? That's what they're doing.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: It's so.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: it's cute to watch like they're just precious.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Like you could tell like it's not even just like
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: a friendship like there's such flirtatious.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: Energy great tension flirtatious energy.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: It's precious do you know how you win that game
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: because no it's your idea that's what i'm saying like
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: if there's a million dollars on the line like how
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: do you win big brothers like people vote to keep
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: you in a house.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: Um i don't know you do when i tell you
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: i'm literally just watching edits of melody and drew I'm
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: telling you, if you're like a book talk romance girly,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: please look it up on TikTok. It is the buzziest
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: thing I've ever seen.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Why don't you just get the, what is it on?
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: Like Peacock?
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: I don't want to watch that. I just want to
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: see the parts that I want to see.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, I guess.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Which is them just being cute and romantic.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's the story that you just want to hold
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: to yourself.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't care about anybody else.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the rest of the show is probably not that good.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: This is better than Love Island was.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: Oh my God.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so romantic.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. Do we know if those couples are still
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: like together?
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen anything.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: I think so. I haven't seen any big breakups yet.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: But I also haven't seen anything with, like, the couples
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: in general. Like, it felt like that.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Again, I wasn't really in the world much.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: I'm sure they have a year-long PR contract.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds about right.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Like, stay together for a year, show that the show works,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: and then you guys can go your separate ways. Which,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, I get it. Shows need to do what
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: they need. But that saying was fucked up. I don't know.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to risk my... I don't know. I
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: guess you could.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: A year with somebody that you truly don't want to
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: be with for... What did they make? Like, $ 500, 000? $ 100, 000?
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: $ 100, 000?
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: Are we talking about Big Brother or are we talking
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: about Love Island?
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Love Island.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: You don't have to be with.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Them, though.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: Like, you can break up at any point.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. So I guess if you win and you're
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: just like, all right, well, we won the game. We
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: beat the system.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Well, it's a good way to get brand deals if
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: you stay together.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: That's what it is.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: That's why people stay together. But, I mean, think about it.
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: If you're in a situationship with someone and you're making
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: money because you're with them, it's, like, more incentive to stay.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: You'll make more money together. I have a friend I
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: was talking to who just moved. And his girlfriend is
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: one of those people that gets pitched for these shows.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like a couple of the big reality shows they've
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: had a couple of the interviews for.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: And it just made me think, I'm like, and.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: We've talked about it, how your life could just within
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: one show change everything. And my buddy, I mean, he
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: does well. They have a good job, a cute dog,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: like things are looking really well for him. And he
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: was telling us on the phone, he's like, we might
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: get picked for this reality show wow and i'm like
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: if you do.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: Do can you give us a description of what kind
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: of reality show it is it's like amazing race type thing.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: What was the first one the first one he was
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: telling us was awkward because it was like a It
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: would have been a dating show. Like, I think his
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: girl was going to be up on a dating show.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: And I was like, well, that would be awkward.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, how does that work?
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: I don't think that was the one that was going through.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: I can't remember the other one of, like, because there's
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: so many now. But I can't remember the other one
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: where I think it was like, oh, that's what it was.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: There's a show where they help you with a proposal
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: or something like that. Well, that's a pivot. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Like, from dating to, like, a proposal, like the perfect proposal.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the show title. But they
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: were being pitched for that show.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Fun.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Which I'm like, that's cool because not only do you
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: get your proposal paid for and it's as epic as
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: you could possibly imagine because it's on TV. So they're
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: going to do all the bells and whistle. Now you're
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: going to be extremely famous. I don't know if that's
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: going to happen. I don't know if they're going to
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: get picked because I don't know how many things.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: Well, not if she's being pitched for dating shows. Someone's
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: going to be like, someone's lying here. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: I think that was a while back though.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: But I think she's in that circle because I've always wondered,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: like you've applied for those shows. I've always wondered.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: I never get picked.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Well, because that's, Thousands I don't know millions of people
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: throwing themselves at this show. No, it's like once you're
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: in the circle though Then you're kind of like hmm
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: You could pop around these different shows and then forever
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: your life could be on a different platform I.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: Know but they won't let me in the circle. I'm
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: currently outside of the circle.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: There has to be a show that's but there's the
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: I Found out okay, so, you know how you do
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: bays on Bayshore. This is gonna connect to the show Yeah,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: and I was telling you there's a show that's similar
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: to your bays on Bayshore where they have two singles
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: meet up in Tampa and They filmed the whole interaction
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: over a brew at a local restaurant in Tampa Bay.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: No, I haven't seen that.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: You remember me telling me that? Well, we talked about
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: it on the show I do, Florida For Real, and
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: we talked to the founders of it.
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: The show is called, I think it's called Small Talk.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: If you wanted to check that out.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Because I don't know where they're going to go with
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: that show, but it's cute because it's a local dating
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: show for people in the area. And it's like, okay,
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: do you guys agree to have this film the entire time?
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: And it's as legit as possible. It's like two strangers.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Here's a conversation. We'll pay for your dinner and see
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: where it goes. That's fun. I feel like you could
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: partner with them for Bays on Bayshore and that. But
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: that's just the business.
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: I'll have to hit them up.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: I wish, though, it would be cool to see if
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: you could get into that world of whatever game show
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: would be. And you've talked about like, OK, you did
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Farmer Wants a Wife.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: Well, I tried to do Farmer Wants a Wife. They
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: didn't want me, which I was shocked by because I'm like, OK,
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: maybe I'm not hot enough for The Bachelor. But I'm like,
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Farmer Wants a Wife. That was insulting. I found that.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: I was like, what? Rude.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: What one do you think you could win, though?
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: Burn One's Wife.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Oh, like you could like win that?
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, not win, but I felt like I
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: had a good chance of clicking with one of the
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: farmers because I'm like, oh, I feel like they'd be
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: into me. Like. I'm from the South.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: You'd be a good farmer wife.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: I went to school in Gainesville, Florida.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're up by the Jacksonville area. You got some
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Southern roots in you.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just a little bit. So I thought I would
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: do good at that, but I'm not like, I don't
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: think I'd be good at a game show. Like I
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: think it would consume me. Like I think it would
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: turn me into like the worst kind of person because
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: I'm very competitive. Oh, really? Yeah, and I don't think
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: I would like that. Like, I think I would need
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: to be on a relationship show because it's either they
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: like you or they don't.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. There's kind of nothing you can do. Yeah,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: just being yourself with it. But you could kind of
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: manipulate them. That's what we see in, like, The Bachelor
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: and Bachelorette.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: You totally could, but I always feel like that backfires.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: You know when you can tell that someone's self-producing on
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: a reality show? I always feel like that backfires because
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: you can just tell that that person's not being authentic.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: And I think the people that do really well on
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: reality shows are the people who are really good at
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: just being themselves.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Oh, that would make sense.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm trying to think of a game show like
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: without dating because I think dating is one thing. But
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: the game shows that are out there that I could
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: actually think I could win.
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: You remember that show Wipeout?
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. I always thought I could win that.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: I could definitely see you on Wipeout. I for sure
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: could see you on Wipeout. Or have you tried the
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: or have you thought about American Ninja Warrior?
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: That's the one I was thinking about after.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: I was like, would I be able to get to that?
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Because we have a gym like that right down the
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: street here that they train the Ninja Warriors. to be
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: able to go through the obstacle course. They've had a
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: couple people that have been on the show to do it.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: And I tried some of the obstacles. It's hard as shit. Yeah,
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: it's very hard. Those obstacles, oh my God, they make
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: it look so easy on TV. But even the little
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: platforms that you start with where you just jump side
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: to side to side.
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: I struggled to get through there.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: You've never considered actually trying to go for it though?
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: I've considered it, yes. I've considered trying to train and
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: do it. But that would take so much. And I
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: don't know, maybe it's not off the radar.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Because somebody said, Because every year, like we talked about,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: like I pick a new challenge. What am I going
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: to train for? What am I going to go for?
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: And when I was putting up the little polls on
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: my Instagram this time, people were like, oh, I think
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: you should do American Ninja Warrior. It's like y'all had
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of faith in me. Like your boy can't,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: I don't really have the greatest balance. I could do
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: some athletic things. Yeah. But even like that warped wall
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: that they have, it's crazy where you run up and
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: try to grab the ledge.
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: It's insane.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: It's like 15 feet high. I'm five, eight in shoes.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: That's three times my height.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: I would like to try just to see like where
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: my weaknesses are because I work out so much that
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: I do the same workouts over and over again that
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: I don't really know what muscle groups I'm neglecting, if
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: that makes sense. Then I'm like, oh, I wonder what
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: I would have a hard time doing.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I literally thought to myself over the weekend
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: because they did the... For 9-11, they did the stair
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: climb challenge at the crunch I work out. And this
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: is how I knew there are certain areas of my
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: life I'm really in shape with. And there's other areas
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: that I'm like, damn, I got to work on that.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: And I was on a stair climber with a weighted vest.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: And it was.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: kicking my ass and I was like holy crap like
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: this is a side of the training I have not
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: hit yeah and there's a woman next to me that's
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know going twice the speed and just flying
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: through it and like not winded at all I'm like
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: what is happening here like there's you might be strong
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: in one area but in a whole other it might
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: just be like I'm not good yeah it might just
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: be kicking my butt are you gonna switch up what
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: you're doing because you've talked about I said boxing one
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: time yeah oh we should do boxing.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Well I did boxing for a it's funny. I was like, Oh,
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: I need to pivot from solid core in a couple
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: of months. Cause it'll be, I think in March it'll
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: be a full, no in, in December it'll be a year,
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: but I've had my membership since March.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: Um, I was like, what do I want to do
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: after solid core? And then, um, I was getting so
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: many compliments in Italy. I'm like, fuck, I can't quit.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Like it's working.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: It's working. Um, so I don't know, maybe I'll in
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: a year I'll pivot from doing solid core all the
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: time and maybe do more traditional weightlifting like once a week. Yeah.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Like get it.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Would you get like a trainer?
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I've thought about it, but that's expensive. It's expensive. If
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: somebody wanted to train me for free and, like, me
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: post about them for sure, I'd do that.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: Have you gone to that, what is it, that booty
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: class in Tampa?
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Because I know my girlfriend and her friends do that, like,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: every Saturday.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I've done that. But I also don't really care
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: that much about my ass to do a peach.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Well, not just. I look at it more as, like,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: a leg workout.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: Like, if there's somebody that could do that for, like,
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: Monday's legs or.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I can't pitch other gyms, but the
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: other one, like F45.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: There's a bunch. I don't like the Orange Theory type
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: classes because I was in the worst shape of my
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: life when I did that consistently. I'm not saying that
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: that would happen to anybody else, but for me, I
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: don't think it works for my body type. I do
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: like the Reformer in the sense that it's very low impact.
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: It's good on your joints and stuff. I like Resistance Training.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: Resistance Training probably is my favorite. But I know you
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: need to lift heavy to do shit.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, to be able to actually get some resistance.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: Big resistance.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Because everybody should, no matter what you're doing outside
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: of that. Whether it's, I love Pilates, yoga, running, cycling.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: On top of it, weightlifting.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Your body simply needs it to be able to do
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: functional things throughout life.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: 100%.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Let me run this by you. Because over the weekend,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: I had a very interesting encounter. And this person might
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: hear this. So I'm not trying to throw anybody under
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: the bus. Because I believe....
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: What they were doing, and I'm still a little suspicious,
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: was out of kindness.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: However, it had me on edge for the entire weekend.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: I was at Publix, and I was doing a little shopping.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: My girlfriend was about to come over, and so I thought,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: you know what? Let me get my apartment looking nice.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: I got a nice bouquet of flowers, and as I'm
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: walking down the aisle, I hear this guy say, man,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: those are some.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: Really nice flowers. You're making me look like a bad husband.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: And I thought, well, that's a friendly guy right there.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: So I turned around, and of course, my goofy self,
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, you know, got to get him for
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: my girlfriend. I want to make sure she has something
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: nice when she gets to the apartment. He starts chatting
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: it up with me. He's like, man, you got a
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: good voice. What do you do?
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: I'm like, okay. Heard that before. Well, I'm in radio.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: He's like, oh, awesome.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: Like, what radio station? I'm like, oh, okay, Magic 94.9.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: And then it goes to another level. So that was
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: like the introductory of getting me to open up about myself.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: And then he goes, well, where do you live?
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: And I said, oh.
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: I live around the area and this is the question
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: that got me on edge. Yeah. And either he's being
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: extremely friendly or like it's a little bit of a
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: weird question. He goes, well, how many avenues away?
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: I said, wait a second, sir.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: You want to know how many avenues away I live
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: from this Publix?
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: Do you even know how many avenues?
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: I honestly, I could have figured it out.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: What here's maybe I've watched too many murder mysteries and Or, like,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: weird stories.
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Because it was a very lovely conversation.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: But, I mean, like, what a weird question to ask.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: That's what I thought, too. Because in my head, I
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: was like, wow, you got me to, like, quickly answer
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: so many questions in my head.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: And I know this.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: If he hears this, I don't think this is what
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: you're doing. But in my head, I'm like, you're getting
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: me to answer so quick that I just slip up
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: and I say it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: So it was like, what do you do for work?
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: What's your name?
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: What did you say? Oh, I said, nah, somewhere five
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: miles in this radius.
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Like, I pivoted. Because my brain literally went like, alert, alert.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: Why are you giving away avenues? Like, why do you
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: need to know how many avenues I live from?
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: And what did he say?
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: He said, oh, that's awesome. What about your girlfriend? Where
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: does she live at?
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, uh, down South Florida?
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: He's like, oh, yeah, where at?
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, God.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: This is so weird. I'm like, Oh my God. I
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: think you're just being friendly, but these are weird questions, sir.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: How'd you get out of it?
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: I ended up flipping it to him. So I was like, oh, well,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: what do you do? What do you do for work? Yeah.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: When did you guys move here? How long have you
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: been in this area? Because I couldn't be the only
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: one that's revealed my cards in my head. Literally. I
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: thought to myself, he knows so much about me. I
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: need to have something on him. Because, let's just say, hypothetically,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: I get taken out. And I know nothing about this guy.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: And nobody knows anything.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: About this guy. You're taking out your camera, you're snapping photos.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm like, somebody has to be able to find
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: who this person is.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: Did he respond?
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he told me what he does for work.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: He lives three avenues away.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: He did tell me exactly where he lives. But I then,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: I think this is the normal thing to do. As
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: soon as I got in my car, I Googled him
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: to figure out who he is, what businesses does he run.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: And after I saw him pop up, I was like, Okay,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: I think I'm safe, but I'm not crazy for thinking
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: those are weird questions.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: But why did you feel safe after Googling him?
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Because I saw, like, he owns a couple businesses here,
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: and at least this way... Actually, here's the truth. I
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: felt safe now that I Googled him, because if I
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: was taken, now you could find him. Yeah. Now you
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: know who this person is, and you know exactly what
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: he looks like.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: But, I mean, that is objectively a weird thing to
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: press on. Like, where does she live? I thought you
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: were about to say that he works in politics, and
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: he's trying to figure out if you're, like, in his.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: You're like one of his constituents. Yeah. I don't know.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: I don't know what, I think it was just a,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: I'm so friendly. I'm just going to ask you everything.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: And maybe it was just one of those. Cause then
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: he messaged me late. Oh, that was the other one.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: And then he asked me for my phone number.
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: That's weird.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: And I was like, gosh. And again, you got me
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: off guard. Like, what am I going to say?
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: No.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know. We're just two gentlemen talking in
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: aisle nine.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: I was like, all right.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: And I thought to myself, I was like, Scott, I
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: was like I guess if.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: Anything I could block the number if it got weird
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: well I guess.
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah realistically what's he gonna do with your phone number
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: I don't know but that was my head I was
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: like why did I just give it out so easily
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: because usually I don't like I don't give my phone
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: number out to anybody I don't know why I mean
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: even it was just kind of a thing in radio
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: I remember coming in to this industry and like that
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: was the Big lesson.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: Like, don't give your phone number out.
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: Because you'll never hear the end of it.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: No, I mean, Bert would get texts in the middle
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: of the show from people who have his phone number.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: See?
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: As soon as it gets leaked, you'll never get it back.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: You gotta switch phones. Oh, 100%. Yeah. And so, as
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: soon as I gave it out, I was like, not
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: only does he know where you live, what you do,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: and your phone number, like, you have no dirt on him.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: And so, in my head, I'm like, I'm gonna get
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: taken out. I just gave away everything I had. I
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe there's a camera around, and it's like
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: a whole show of how easy is it to you know,
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: take me out or get some of these personal information.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: So the whole afternoon I sat there, I was like,
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: I'm waiting. But then he did text me. And I
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: think this is where it's just being a nice guy.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Cause he was like, dude, you're super nice to meet.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: I think, you know, I want to connect you with
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: my son cause he's interested in radio. And there's some
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: other business opportunities that if you're interested in, I can
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: get you connected with. If you're looking to like, you know,
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: continue doing side hustles. I was like, Oh, that's very nice.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: So I did text him back. Okay. So I don't
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: know if I don't think I'm going to get killed,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: but it was a moment where I thought, damn, you
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: got to be so quick.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: And like, as soon as you let.
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Your guard down, it's just so easy to, and it
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: was a good tactic. Cause it was like question, question, question.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: And I was like, I don't know, answer, answer, answer.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: And I only had that reflection time as I was walking.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: I know. So, I mean, just be careful out there.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: Don't get taken out.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, if I do though, I'll tell you off
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: the air who it is.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Perfect. So if I do that, you know who to get,
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: but I think hopefully it was somebody that was just
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: being nice and hopefully trying to make me, as I
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: said earlier, trying to make me rich with these side
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: deals and, Versus me ending up in a ditch.
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: Hopefully.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: I don't think I'm going to die. But that was
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: my weekend in Caterham. I was not in Italy.
• 33:14
