• 2:19
  Speaker 2: but not each to them. We're just flavoridah to them.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: It's just funny like we see these like memeed tiktoks
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: about like you know, people ask you want to go
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: out after nine o'clock, they just have a disgusted look. No, dude,
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: it's funny, Like the second like nine o'clock hits, I'm like,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I'm not on my computer, I'm not on my phone.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I'm if I'm with my wife, we're watching whatever is
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: on TV, or we're just talking whatever, And like ten o'clock,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: it's like, all right, we gotta try to we gotta
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: start winding down.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Now, let me ask you this eve on the weekends. Sorry,
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: so I'm very much in the same boat. Yes, I've
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: known for a handful of years. Not I'm definitely aligned
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: with more of like the middle aged soul or the
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: like suburbia soul. But with that said, I've been asking
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: a lot of people that kind of the same question,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: are like, what what does your night look like? Most often,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: you know, what is relaxing to you? And almost everyone
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: I have talked to a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds, religious backgrounds,
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: ethnic backgrounds, majority are saying the same thing. And my
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: question to you is do you feel out of place?
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: Or does that feel normal and natural?
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: I I don't know, it's like a question, Actually I don't.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I don't feel out of place. Just say this in
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: your twenties, it's the classic like you know, oh, here's
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: two older dudes talking. But it's a classic you're trying
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: to figure out who the hell you are. Well, you know,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: but like no one tells you to stop for your
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: You're just going at the flow. Now that I'm in
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: my thirties, like, it's not that like I'm not trying
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: to find my place. It's like I have my place.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: But you always have this and it's not a bad thing,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: by the way. You always have this desire to like
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: you want to do more, but sometimes when you don't
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: want to do more, you're okay with it. And what
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: by that means? Like, like I said, like, for example,
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: you and I we gained a little bit together last week.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: Like what like an hour hour and a half towards.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Putting nicely and because you know, next day, you know,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: as I talked about before, my wife is currently in
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: Germany again. I know she's come back. No, she's doing
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: there for an audit, but she was and she literally
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: said like, oh, it's like you gained like like how
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: long did you gain four? Like in the classic six
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: seven hours? I'm like, I just said that number.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Damn it.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: No, I literally said, I think we maybe it most
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: got two hours?
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: How was it?
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: And I was like it was so relaxed. Yeah, And
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: then I talked to Patrick og Patron. He said, and
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: he said, how was it And I said, honestly, and
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I said, it wasn't just and I said, I told Kaitlyn,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: was like, it wasn't relaxing, it was like soul soothing. Okay,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: you had this because I had this moment of I
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: have nothing to do. I want to do nothing. I
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: don't want to do accomplish anything. I don't want to
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: clean nothing. I just want to take this time to
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: do somebody that is super calming to me. And I
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: think for me now, it's like I'm even in your thirties,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: You're still trying to find your place a little bit.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: But at the same time, when you have those moments
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: where you can go game, you can read a book,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: you can go I know I've talked about like I
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: work out a lot more than I did twenties now,
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: which is crazy, but like I don't in a way
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: that is soul suthing. But I'm doing that because I
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: generally enjoy it most because I want to be healthy.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: But like gaming, for me, it was just like and
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: I'm not joking, it was so that was so fucking relaxing.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: So it's fair to say that that that's one of
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: your outlets that really just helps.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: You, if anything. To answer your question again, sorry classic
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: the adhg rambling on here. You appreciate those moments, I
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: think a lot more now when you just have that time,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: not just to yourself, but you have that time where
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: it's like I can do whatever the fuck I want,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: whether if you just want to sit on your ass
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: and watch TV. I don't watch a lot of TV,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: and I have this like weird I don't want to
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: say guilt, but like unless if I'm not if I'm
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: watching it with Caitlin, that's one thing. But if I'm
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: just sitting down watching TV by myself and then like
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I'm not eating dinner, I'm not doing anything, I get
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: this like a weird sense of like, wait, I'm kind
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: of like wasting my time because I'm not really a
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: guy who watches TV. I'm not. I mean, sure, I'll
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: watch Penguin when the show, I'll watch Mandalorian because those
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: shows intrigue me, but like I don't, I'm not just
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: I'm more of a movie guy. But like when I
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: have that time to just be like, oh, I can
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: do whatever the hell I want. I can go do it,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: and I appreciate it more and I think it's and
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: here's the thing, it is a lot harder to do
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: that because, like you said, you're older. By this point,
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: you might be a little more established, but you know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: you're a little more established in your life. That means
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: you have more responsibilities. And that also goes for your friends,
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: which is why you always can't just call them up
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: and hang out from and go get a beer, go
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: get dinner. You have to and a schedules not or
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: not not And you have been and that's why I
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: love it. You have been the biggest proprietor of this
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: and I mean that a good way and proprietor not
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: be a good might not be the best word, but
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: it's laia. I'm gonna say it to you too. It
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter if you're boomer, alpha, gen Z, millennial, whatever
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: the then they one alpha.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: What are hell's called?
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Picking up? Picking up the phone and talking to someone
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: making plans over the phone. It is so much more rewarding.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, I mean, god, how many times have
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: we texted about, oh we should do this thing on
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: game and stuff like that or we should do this.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: But it's like life happens.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Life happens, and texting you forget about it so much easier.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: You forget about it. Like when you actually have that
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: you know, interaction, voice to voice communication, it sticks with
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: you and it's just it's just so relaxing, and yeah,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: you appreciate those moments then where you have that time
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: to do whatever the hell you want. But the thing is, though, too,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: is like when you want to do nothing or not,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: when you don't want to do nothing, when you're done
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: with everything and you want to go relax, sleep or whatever.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: No one questions it. I will say, though I can't remember.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Caitlin has said this, and you know him, our friend,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: my friend Chad has said this because he turned I
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: think he's thirty. Remember I think he's my age. He's
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: thirty two or thirty one. I'm sure he's thirty. I
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: think he's like six months the oer than I am,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: he said, and he's a said like he's done more
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: in his thirties right now in his twenties, Like thirties
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: are the new twenties. But it's nicer because we're okay.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: So here's the thing. I've traveled more in the last
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: two years I ever did in my twenties.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, because like you're established, you have yeah, more stability,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: you have better income, your debts usually paid off. But
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: I'm not talking specifically.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: But it's just like this, it's like you have you know,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: if anything too, it's like you know, what the hell
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: you want? Yeah, I'm still I'm awful. I'm getting better
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: at it, especially I've talked about the podcast. I'm doing
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: therapy and stuff like that, and I really enjoy it.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: But like I used to be bad about saying no
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: or I don't want to do that. I'm still working
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: on that, but like there's been like it just like
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: if you would have asked me five years ago if
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: I would have want to go to Europe, my answer
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: or Ireland would have been one hundred percent yes, But
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: like other countries, I would have been like I would
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: have had that weird doubt or self doubt. Obviously, a
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: big reason I did go visit a bunch is because
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: my wife was over there working. And I'm talking right out.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: If she wasn't over there, would I've gone over there.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I can't answer that, but that definitely
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: opened the door. But like there were was it. There's
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: times like her and I have talked about doing things
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: and like one of us just spy us out, like no,
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: now not like in the mamment. Not it just doesn't
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: intrigue me. Because again it's like to say life is
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: too short. It's like if someone doesn't intrigue me or
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: excite me, like why would we do it?
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: And that goes both ways.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Now we won't get to the marriage sop, but there
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: is compromise, like if your partner wants to do something
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: you really don't want to do it, it's like, okay, you
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: know what they do one thing for me, so let
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: me try some. Maybe I don't have a good time
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: shit like that, but like yeah, just like I said,
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: like that two hours, I'm not joking. I cannot tell
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: you the last time or and it's gonna sound shitty.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: It's not like I don't take time for myself. It's
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: just it's hard to.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: Find time for yourself mm hmmm.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Because like going to work, you need to do that,
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: going to jim some kind of exercise, not that you
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: should enjoy that, but you need to do that to
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: stay healthy. And you know, a little long life chores,
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: other stuff. But like when I have those like two
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: hours just a game. Oh god, like today's gonna it's
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: gonna be rough because I'm gonna be working after the
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: podcast but record here, I gotta do editing, I gotta
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: do some other stuff. And the whole time I'm gonna
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: see a little like like you know, desktop, Like I'm like,
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: click on, you bitch, come on play me. So but yeah, man,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: I oh but to answer your question.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, two hours later.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Hours later, classic chuck. At least I interrupt you ship,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: but no, it just yeah, you just gotta have fun
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: with it. But like insally too is like and like
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: also anird thing. Two somehow was awful at scheduling. Dude,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: I schedule ships so far. I oh god, it's so relaxing,
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: it's so nice.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, and that's it. It's finding your roof. But
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: I do think what you said, and more importantly, like
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: it's okay to feel out of place with all that like,
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: And that is why I brought it up, because while
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: I was having those same conversations, there was a consistent
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: undertone of everyone kind of trying to find themselves, and
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: everyone seemed to kind of feel or present the feeling
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: that they felt kind of isolated because they were still
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: figuring things. How but in reality, that is what the
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: twenties are about.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Correct, And it's okay to feel isolated. It's okay to
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: not know stuff, like you know, like I've told you
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: about some of the things I've gone through the past year.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Part of that was because like that whole like identifying
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: who I am isolation stuff stuff, and it's good. That's good,
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like or what is it? What?
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: What does? However? Downey say, you know, part of part
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: of the journey is the end. Yeah, but the best
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: part is the journey you take to get there, you
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: know what I mean? Yeah, Like like I like, yeah, sure,
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: then you know, the road is great, But you know
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: what's the best part about getting down the road? The
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: entire journey there, because that's what happens. Does does everyone? Does?
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Everyone like the world of the Reins, right? Yeah? If
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: you aple enjoy the end, no one really cares about
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: name want to why because there's like twenty hours of
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: ship before that to get to that's the best part.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Same with Star Wars, same with anything. I mean, yeah,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: it's just it's just it's but here's I think it's
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: because like you know, we have this you watch movies
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: or you to hear your parents and not knocking parents,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: but like you hear them like say like, oh, this
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: part of my life and I figured this, I figured
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: this out. No one, no one has heared it out.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Even people in their forties or fifty still don't have
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: to shit figure out and that it's okay. Yeah also sorry,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: really good yeah day, as long as you got to
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: rip over your head, you're able to eat and also
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: have a good time when you can, and then like
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: life is good. But again, it's okay to feel isolat
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: or not know what you're doing, because sometimes surprises are the.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Best thing exactly. And I think what often is lost
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: in today's world is you also don't have to compare
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: yourself or do things in the same order or in
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: the same timeframe as other people.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Everyone's journey is different, right, Yeah, Like something like my
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: wife and I started doing like like we do like
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: and it's weird. I was never a guy who do
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: like meal prep like every Sunday is we do we
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: meal prep food for the week for work and stuff
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: like that, and we go grocery shopping Saturdays, and like
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: it's actually really enjoyable because like it's like, okay, we
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: can do we can do both on one day, but
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: they'll take the entire day or we split it in half,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: and then we can have time to do more fun
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: things after we're done with like you know, the obligations
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: of the day, if you will. But and sometimes breaking
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: the routine is also good too, because it doesn't think
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: too be. It's like we've only broken routine a couple
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: of times, and when we did, it's like, oh, you
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: feel you feel awkward, but it's okay, I'm out of
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: my routine. So what what am I going to do
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: to you? What am I gonna do with this time
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: I have? And that's when you can maybe work on
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: a project and putting off, that's when you can.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Passion.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, perfect example I've talked about, like I I'm not
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: gonna lie to you. I never thought I would be
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: a reader. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not really a reader. Okay,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I have hand up, I'll admit it. I don't know
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: why I read the first fourth Win book. Okay, I
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: could not put I could not put that book down.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: I'm on chapter two I read.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: I read that first book. I think in like a
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: couple of weeks. If that second book took me six months,
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: I don't but I don't know why. I just I
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: had this. The first book was just so enjoyable. And
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying I did. I really enjoyed the second one.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: I really did, but it just I wasn't being pulled
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: into it as much. Well, I'm not gonna spoil it.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: The first the first book at the ending is really
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: good and it's like, well, I gotta pick up the
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: second one. But then the point I'm trying to think
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: is like now and for some reason, like I think
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: it was part of it was og Patron told me
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: about it. It was like three months ago, three or
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: four months ago. I started reading comic books again and
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: I read graphic and yes, ladies and gentlemen, yes they are,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: they are. They are books serve magazines with big with
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: with drawings of fighting and action and storytelling, but and
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: with big words. It's an inside joke, but like, I'm
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: not joking. I tell you this, dude, some of the
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: stories I've read in the last four months, I'm literally like,
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: how the fuck is this not a movie? Because some
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: of this shit it just I guess That's the thing too,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: is like you read like a Batman comic book, You're
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: gonna go on with this expectation like what it is. No,
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: it's completely upside down. I'm sure you've heard of the
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Absolute series. It is fucking insane. I've only read the
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: Batman one. It is fucking insane. Like I'm sorry, Batman.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: It's not much of a spoiler, but it's really just
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: simply like Bruce. It's a whole universe Bruce. Wayne's not
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: a millionaire. His parents his parents were middle barely middle class.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: But he still becomes Batman. But he is like six
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: foot four, three hundred pounds, just fucking muscle. Oh and
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: his uh, his bat emblem is actually an axe.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: That's pretty cool.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: But it's just but it's just it's like, excuse me,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: it's when you get out of your comfort zone kind
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: of like with that, it's like you you find new things,
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: you experience new things and the like. And there's been
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: times now when I go to like when I when
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Caitlyn I go to bookstores, I literally go, oh wow, wait, no,
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: I can't get that because I have common I have
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: graphic novels at home. I need to fucking finish reading,
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like, I have this pile
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: of I like I got like halfway through, I got
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: these other ones. I'm like, I still have to read that.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: But like and again, it's just as you're going through
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: life or especially like in your twenties or thirties, like
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: you just all of a sudden, you just get this
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: weird urge or discover discovery to like try new things.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: I think we're on the same same wavelength tonight, because
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: that is exactly what where I was kind of headed
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: with this is because I've been in that exact boat
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: where one I kind of shifted to only well, I
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: should say, only prioritizing things that interest me versus just
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: doing things to do them. And then second, like I
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: literally went and I borrowed the Fourth Wing Book because
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: I heard just so many people raving about it and
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: I was and am genuinely excited to read it, right,
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: but there seems to be a greater interest in doing
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: other things at the moment. So I am on chapter
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: two after like five weeks, and the whole prioritizing what
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: makes you happy again underrated because we don't know if
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: we're getting tomorrow. Plain and simple to the audience if
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: this is a reminder to live your life. Yeah, you
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: do what makes you happy.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, no, sorry, but no, you're right. You should do
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: what makes you happy because like, yeah, tow tell me
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: that tomaw is like you're inteen, it's just you don't
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: know where're gonna be in six months from that. And
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: like there's this classic thing on TikTok. Here comes a
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: dissy adulta me. I forget what the girl calls it,
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: but essentially it's just like this fear of missing out
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: on something you want because if you don't buy it's
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: gonna be gone oh, or it's fomo. But it's like
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: a there's a different act. It'sentually it's like hey, buy
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: it now, or it's gonna be like essentially, it's like, hey,
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: if you don't buy it now, you're never gonna see
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: it again. And I cannot tell you when Caitlin and
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: I saw that TikTok, I cannot tell you. We started
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: like having these like flashbacks of how many times you're like, wow,
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: that one thing we saw would be really cool to get,
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: and maybe we're like, okay, you know what, I thought
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: better of it, let me go looking to buy it
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: and it's gone, for example, kind of going to like
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: new hobbies a little bit. I'll fully admit I thought
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: it was stupid. I thought owning a watch was dumb.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: You want know why, because you have one in your pocket,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: there's one in your car, there was one on your computer.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: But then right before I got married, my beautiful, awesome
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: wife bought me a watch and i've and I've had
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: that watch for yours. It's great. And then last Valentine's
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Day she got me a very nice watch and I
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: love it and it's great. And then over like the
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: last year or so, then I got another watch from
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: a friend of mine. Clickity klak. He got this really
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: cool watch from Mexico. And then we were in uh,
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: we're we're we're in Disney Paris. I know, always gentlemen,
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: a whole clause for your laughter. We're in Disney Paris
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: last spring, okay, and we kept It's like it's very
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: small comparison too, like Orlando. I can't speak for California,
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: but they had this store and I saw this watch,
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: drew it was it was it's inspired by the Tower
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: of Terror. It was too obvious it was Tower of Terror.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: But it's like one of those like ones that we
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: had to like go up close to, like see's like,
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, that's Tower of Tear. And I thought it
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: was badass, and I kept thinking like, wow, that's really nice.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I actually really liked that watch. I really
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: like it, but I didn't buy it. It's gone. I
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: can't find it anywhere, can't find it online. So then
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: we go back last Christmas and to Paris and I
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: and we went there. We went there for one day.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: We went to Disney for one day, and I literally said,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go buy that watch. He went guys like, yeah,
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: I know, it's been gone for like months. We haven't
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: had it. You can't get anywhere. I'm like, yeah, you
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: can't find anywhere. It's not on their website. It's not
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: like nothing. Can't find it. I've looked. I literally I
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: had a photo of it's on my phone and I
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: you know, did like attach to Google images. There's photos
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: of it. No one's selling it. Great fucking a. So
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: then there was this other watch. There was this other watch,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: and and I long story short, Kaitlyn literally goes, I
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: think that watch would like really nice on you, and
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: I bought it, and I bought it for myself as
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: somebody like, Hey, I'm gonna you know, as a like
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: a a commemoration if you will have like like you know,
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: best Christmas ever, you know, like we did Christmas, you
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: know for like you know, I was in four different
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: countries in one month. Yeah, And the problem is I
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: kept there was like three times I kept like should
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: I and then like literally Kaitlin's like and she literally
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: like and I didn't say it, but she literally looked
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: at me. Because you when you're with your partner for
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: a long time, they know the cues. She literally goes,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: because I didn't mention it her, she goes, this is
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: gonna be the tower. Teara watch, stop it, go buy it.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: Shout out to Kaitlyn. Awesome exactly.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: And here's the thing now, I've gone like I used
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: to think watchers are stupid and literally in the last week,
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: all I've done, all I've done when I have time,
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: if I'm not reading a comic book, if I'm not
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: playing two hours you on a video game, worry in
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: my comic books, I like my wa my algorithm just
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: watches and going into the last thing the next Sorry,
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: I want to let you continue. I just Felise, I
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: took coover years back here, I got myself another watch, okay,
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: which I said to you as a commemoration. And then
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: I've kind of it's not it's not like a big
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: c rady like I've kind of a lot to it.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: I got diagnosed with ADHD. I've said that multiple times.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Listen to podcasts. You've heard it there.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: It is.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Some people don't know it.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Now you know it.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: But like I bought it as a way like, hey,
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: there's what it is. Cool. Well, like, hey, you know
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: what I went through all the all the evaluation stuff
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: like that, and that's what we came to great. You
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: know what I bought this way and remind myself, Hey,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: I'm still me, I'm still awesome. Nothing's changing, I mean
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: something like nothing's changing.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: That's because you've you've taken a stride to better your life.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Correct And also again I fear of messing out. You
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: can't buy the watch anymore.
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: See, and that is when it from being an impulse
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: to an investment.
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: Exactly, Ladies and Jimen.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: That was not pure financial advice.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: This show was not a show to take serious financial
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: advice from. Please consult a financial professional for any financial adventures.
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: In my opinion, though, that is a rare circumstance where
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: now you probably have increased value because.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: Got it, got it way on sale, and like and
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: I'm not joking, like I'm not saying I bought the
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: last one, but like when it goes on sale on
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Amazon for more than fifty percent off, and then this
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: is where I got scared. You got taken off Amazon.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: This is the one I sent you. It got taken
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: off Amazon, and I got nervous. So they went on
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: their website and it said and it literally said almost
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: sold out, and I swear to god, I bought it,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: got confirmation. I went back on into like let's see
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: if it's so low? Yeah, said no longer available, and
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: I said, did I get the last If I didn't,
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: it's in the top five, damn. But again it's just
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: going back. It's like, yeah, you just get these you
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: and who knows, maybe in three months, I know, I
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: never want to look at watches again.
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: Who knows.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: But it's like we're living the now, don't live in
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: three months.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: Sure, some things you should plan out for not later,
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: you know, like save up invest in certain things, like
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: you know, like we're trying to do our house stuff
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: for Drew is trying to you know, like he will
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: get to your investment here. You made it in a
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: little bit. But it's like you can't think for long term.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: But also you should. Also you gotta have a bounce
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: because like you said, it's gonna I hate to say it.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: I don't I'm trying to scare your here, you're going
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: to your thirties. Your twenties are gone like that, like
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: it's gone. I'm not saying you have a good time.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: You have a thousand memories, but it's like way now
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: you're now you're in this next chapter, and it's telling
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: you heat the changer it thing. It's like like, oh,
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: if you want to bed by nine o'clock, now I
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: know you already go to bed by nine o'clock.
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, prioritize sleep people. It's huge.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: Oh god, it's life changing. Oh man. But yeah, dude,
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: it's just you gotta you gotta enjoy life.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: You gotta have no I think that that's something the
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: message of this call because all too often, myself included,
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: it's too easy to just forget and be grateful for
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: you have in the world.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: Because and I also think sometimes we also need to
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: and I'm not gonna say certain names, we need to
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: pull people out of those I'm not saying rev. Sometimes
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: everyone's different. I once heard a famous athlete it might
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: have been JJ Watt or they I don't want to
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: think their name starts with the J, but they literally said,
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: every single person is their own model version of a car.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: All they all have different things they need or they
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: can't have nor turn more properly. And sometimes I think
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: certain people, and I'll be the first said, sometimes I
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: need it. Sometimes we just need I'm not saying me
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: reached out to for like help, just reach out to like,
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: hey man, what are you doing? What's going on?
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: MM?
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: When to go get a beer? Or we want to
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: go get up McDonald's burg or something like that, because
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: unfortunately we live in this age where it's like we
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: just like text each other what's going on? And I
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: think in our thirties it's gonna be you get more
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: of that whole Like no, they should let me, let me.
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: Call Drew, let me call ogy Patron, let me let
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: me just do the chat on the phone.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: On the phone, hey man, what's going on? Like I'm back,
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: Like I talked to og was on the podcast last week.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: The week prior him around on the phone, we talked
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: for almost three hours. Had no again, had no idea.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: It was three hours. Not a fucking clue.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: That's a good conversation.
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: Well it was. But to the point we were both went,
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: ship should be recorded.
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a three couple episodes exactly.
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: That's two episodes right there. It was only two hours
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: a half most for episodes. But yeah, dude, it's just
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: you gotta enjoy life, have fun. It was as you said, risk,
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: I think that's the thing, like you got, people need
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: to walk around more with fomo because, like I said,
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: like I do, I regret not getting that watch. What
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: now come up in the ear from ag Yeah, but
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: you know what, I got this really nice. I got this.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say it. I mean, it's a nice watch,
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: but it's not like it's not like you know. And
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: by the way, later, by the way, I think buying
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: watches they're like Rolexes all the respect. I don't like
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: that because I'm sorry buying a thing on your risk
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: with a car. But again, but if that's your thing,
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: that's your thing. Coming from the guy who's saying don't
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: get a Rolex that's worth a car. When I have
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: enough funkal pops to probably suffocate a.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Guy and or buy a car.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: You don't even go down to that.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Uh, A mid tier car A legend.

  Speaker 2: I do not have enough funkle pops to buy a
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: jeep Wrangler.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, everyone would be like, I'm looking up here.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: Like what's that?
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Let's do? What's he said?
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Your cargo.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: California?
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's oh.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, he moved to Germany.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Shit band. You just gotta you just gotta not call
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: for one. You just gotta have fun And here's the
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: thing too. One thing I've definitely learned in my thirties is,
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: as you say, like you fill out of place, the isolation.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: I also say this to embrace the bad times when
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: you're feeling down. I'm not saying go down, go down
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: to the deepest, darkest pit, but just don't hold it in, man,
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: let the shit out, get it out of you.
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: Explore those feelings.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, explore that ship and get it out of you,
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: because like I said, like, uh, it's not just this,
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: it's not healthy. It's just like it's not it's not
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: worth your time. Sure you might learn something from it,
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: but it's like, Okay, you can be sad and MOPI
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: for eight hours all day or you you know, literally
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: go in shower, have a good cry. An hour and
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: a half later, you're like, okay, correat, I'm good now.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Not that everyone not that every sorry, not that everyone's
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: like like that. You know, some people need a little
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: more time, which is okay. But I'm saying just just embrace,
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: embrace the suck, and let's get through it. And then
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: oh it's the afternoon, killing me go outside.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, especially to the male listeners, like it's not talked
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: about it as much amongst our male groups. But it
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: is perfectly okay to explore your feelings, have a cry,
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: tell your boys you love them or that you need
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: them perfectly okay, oh yeah.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: Like because he, as you said, Toronto zoccharatt Or a
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: perfect example, I don't bring much on them. I didn't
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: know him that well from Bartol, Cody, Beef, Frankie. I
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: hadn't talked to him in eight years and he's going
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: And it was one of those like ones where I
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: was like, shit, I regret now, especially when it because
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: he like when he moved back to Chicago. I was like, damn,
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: I really regret now reaching now and just be like yeah,
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: and here's the thing and now like I didn't have
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: a shoot. He was he he was very good friends
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: with a very good friend of mine. And it's like
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: damn and like and again as when I went to
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: his funeral, I just like kept saying myself, son of
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: a bitch, not to like I buy a ball, like
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: the son of a bitch should have called him m hm,
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: because again you don't know, you don't know, you know.
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: So I don't think anyone will ever regret making the call,
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: but almost everyone will regret.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: Not making the call even if I called him and
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: he told me not that he would, but he told
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: him like no, thanks, like because he wasn't that kind
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: of guy. Like if he said that, like it was like, hey,
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: you know what against the whole like at least I
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: tried do we literally do or do not? Enough of
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: this try card like do or do not? Like you
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: pick up the phone or you don't pick up the phone,
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: but doesn't do it because again, like like what what
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: what we got to lose two minutes? Like he we
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: don't talk? Okay, great, we go ball our business or
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: our our talk is like oh wow, like we haven't
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: we haven't talked like eight years. Let's catch up, you know,
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: like with og og Patron. I like here's the thing, like, yeah,
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: he's my oldest friend. Him and I do not talk
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: all that often because again it's just life m hm.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: And I talked to you almost every.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: Day, and that's because we had a couple of group chats.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: A couple of group chats of other things. But like
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: but it's just still but what do we got to lose?
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: You know? But yeah, but and it's also on things too.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: It's like this is one thing I would say to
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: you too. The answer call back to your question you
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: asked forty five minutes ago, I was on rambling on
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: still is you also need to make sure you prioritize
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: that stuff, because it's stuff that if it means that
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: much you, you'll find a way to do it. Mm hmmm,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: something my wife and I now do. And this was
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: her idea, which is brilliant.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: I'm just really really happy with my wife here as
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: I should we do Thursday date nights. And they're great,
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: they're fun and a big reason we picked Thursday. It
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: was a perfect idea. I was like, well, we'll just
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: do Friday. She goes, okay, well what happens with when
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: this one Friday so and so wants to go for
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: dinner or and she always had what we happens I
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: Drew comes into town that Friday. It's like, okay, great,
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: Thursdays a weekday. No one's gonna be doing anything or
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: no one's gonna be like trying to do stuff for
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: plan stuff other than the occasional like oh it happens
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: to be so and So's birthday. Oh okay, we'll do exactly.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: But like Thursday, like it's just been it's been fun.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: But again, the part of it is like we prioritize that,
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: and like I prioritize my podcast. I worked pretty much.
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: I've been recording every Tuesday. Now it's fun. Now I
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: need to do that with voice acting because I really want,
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: I really enjoy it.
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: I need to do it.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: But like it just you gotta prioritize. You gotta prioritize
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: the things that you want to do and love because
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: like if again, I know, sorry, I know, there's a
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: few people in my life. They know who they are.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: They hate this statement. And this is from my dad.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: And as I get older, I realize the more and
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: more I get older and I realize that shit like
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: it's not just a little joke. He says this a lot.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: He goes, take care of your ship, I'll take care
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: of you. It's not just like hey, take care of
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: your car. I'll take care of It's like, hey, take
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: care of like you know, like hey, take care of
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: your podcast. It's gonna take care of you back because
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: you're gonna enjoy it more. Take care of it. It's
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: just little things like that. It's gonna build up because,
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: like I said, I in my twenties, I hate it
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: going to the gym. Now, when I don't go to
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: the gym, I'm an asshole because I genuinely enjoy going there. Hell,
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: I started, your body does too, Yeah, I started. I
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: started boxing three weeks ago and I'm like, damn it,
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: why did I stop doing this? This is fun? Not
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: sure will I do what? I fucking hate myself, But
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: afterwards I feel.
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: Great, Oh god, ba man, Yeah, make your body.
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: Answer to your question and if I was, if I
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: was a politician, the interview had over fifteen minutes ago,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: and to be like, wow, he really winded that question
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: to get out of this.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: Like you said earlier, it's not about the indestination but
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: the journey.
• 35:51
  Speaker 2: Thank you see, And that's.
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, oh no, but it's true. I mean, I'm
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: glad we had like the open format tonight because I
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: feel like we touched on a lot of topics that
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: especially younger men aren't really comfortable or used to talking about.
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: And you know, to reiterate what we've said all this
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: podcast is, it's okay, it's normal. Yeah, however you're feeling,
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: you know, and if you're still feeling unsure, nervous, scared,
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: even that's okay too, it's okay to ask for help.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: There's there's a famous out of Chicago said, there's nothing
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: more there's nothing more courageous or brave than picking up
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: the phone asking someone for help.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: That's the first step. And it's not saying like oh,
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: it like, oh I need help, I'm a desperate different.
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: It's like no, just like hey, I don't know what
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: to do, or like I'm in this spot or I'm
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: lone ship like that, just pick up the phone, like
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: who can like look aly like there's like here's the
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: thing and I need to do this through.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: There's I don't know how many phone numbers on my
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: phone that I have not talked to in years years.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Don't know why they're still in there. I mean obviously
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: because you know you keep your phone number and all
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: that's it. But it's just like I guarantee, like there's
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: phone numbers in there. People like oh you probably like,
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: oh yeah, we're gonna be we're gonna be really good
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: friends and a no Probert and that's okay. But it's like, hey,
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: you know what, maybe I'll call maybe randomly calm and
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: they'd be like, hey, man, I haven't talked to you
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: in fifteen years ke and they're like they're like and
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: you know, and that's a being a different person's voice, Like,
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: who the fuck are you?
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: You're not ted?
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Oh shit, I end up calling one of those scam
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: collection agency companies.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: Don't get me started on those.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: They're like, it's not supposed to be a seguay.
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: I swear to.
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: Uh thankfully, I'm not freaking out. But for context, everybody,
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: I woke up this morning to an online protection service
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: notifying that someone opened a credit card in my name
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: which I did not open. So that is why Charlie
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: is geeking out. Yeah again, take care of your stuff
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: or takes care of you.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: Kind of going back to my said earlier than the
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: literally call back, it's not I'm sorry, it's not funny,
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: but it's funny. Then I talk about you making that
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: investment in something where you bought let's just say, okay,
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: Drew boy himself a mega PC and less than a
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: week later, this ship means.
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: You, well, you're actually not wrong there, like like what
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: the fuck?
• 38:55
  Speaker 6: Like why like, oh god, I just I just remember
• 39:00
  Speaker 6: where the amount of times throughout college or even like
• 39:05
  Speaker 6: in my professional life where.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: We get those calls like oh, you know, so calling
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: regarding your here's the thing. There are so many ways
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: now for you to keep track of your information, good
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: and bad. Mind you, but like about like your credit
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that, where it's like, because it's the
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: anytime I get anytime I get those phone calls, which
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: thank god, hold on, I haven't gotten one, but now
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: that my phone is next to me listening to everything,
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: I say, I'm gonna get twenty tomorrow. But like anytime
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: I got those calls, I would just go tell one
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: those like credit check apps like that you get with
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: like most of your banks for free, and just go,
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: oh no nothing, they're cold, fake block this number, dude.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: They're they're getting real good though. The AI calls are
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: crazy good.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do you remember, I can't remember what it was.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: It was a government agency they put that thing years agore.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: It's like if you put this number on your website,
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: spa like scam spammers are not allowed to call you
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: or something like that. And then of course what happened.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: It got hacked. In leagues they call poor sould. Remember
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: when I read the report, I'm like, uh, it's all
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: you put in your personal informations, just like your phone
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: number and stuff like that. But like I remember, I
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: was like, oh, well here it comes, yeah the title
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: Actually no, juck. I literally had one the other day
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: where they claimed to be my phone provider. Okay, spoiler,
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: it wasn't a company that I had my phone, So
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: that right there a red flag and they're like, we're
• 40:36
  Speaker 2: calling to confirm your charge of and of course and
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: it's never a real person, it's automates. It was like,
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: of three thousand, six hundred three dollars. First of all,
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: what phone did I buy? That's three grand?
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: The Dex super Mega Edition.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: Apparently apparently I bought Elon Musk's iphoned forty five whatever.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: And of course it's like, you know, please call us back.
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: Yet it's like you know, like yeah, but and again
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: but as you said, like yeah, they are. Fortunately, they're
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: always gonna be tricky and they're always gonna be calling
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: the easily manipulating that not and that not that it's
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: a bad Oftentimes there's just people who don't know they
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: don't know it, or they're unfortunately older and stuff like that,
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: and it just sucks because it's like you're an asshole.
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: If you do that shit, h just be a nice person.
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: People wise man.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: One said, it's nice to be important, but it's more
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: poor to be nice.
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: It's also hard to be nice.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: It's not hard at all. I mean again, and I
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: actually I never have you been on since Germany, since
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: you and I or yeah, since you and I were
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: in Germany. No, I don't think so, here's a good,
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: here's a good okay, No, no time to turn to
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: the turn tables up turn What did you think I'm
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: not gonna okay? The culture, it's a little bit difficult
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: to ask that because you were there obviously during the time.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: Everyone's like, yeah, we're happy. It's our Christmas whatever, not Christmas,
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: it's our October Fest. Yeah. Yeah, did you experience.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: Any like.

  Speaker 2: And again I'm not trying to be rude to the culture,
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: did you experience anyone being essentially like really short with
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: you just because maybe you were too nice? Like how
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: I've alluded to sometimes that, like, you know, I would
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: go to grocery stores or restaurants and I would hold
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: the door open for people and they would not only
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: not walk in, they would be either look like I
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: just spit on their mother's shoes.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: Thankfully. No, that's I also didn't talk to a whole
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: lot of people. That's what's U.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: But hey, you got to do october Fest and see

• 43:12
  Speaker 2: very difficult. But like, yeah, dude, there's been. There's been.
