00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:18,560
Hello. Hi. What are we talking about today? We're not talking about Cults are we? No.

2
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:23,720
Oh my god. Thank goodness because I'm not prepared for that. I know. I've been stuck

3
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:29,280
on this Carly Russell stuff like all week and I've been so excited. We're going to record

4
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:33,520
a Polz episode. I keep putting in the Polz. People do keep voting for it, but it's not

5
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:40,680
getting the most votes. But we do need to do major prep work for that before we can

6
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:46,960
talk about it. So it's coming. I just don't know when, but today we're going to talk about

7
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:52,400
things that you should know when you're 30s, but maybe you don't or things that you should

8
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:57,120
start thinking about and doing when you're in your 30s or things that you didn't think

9
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,680
about when you were in your 20s and now you have no choice but to think about now that

10
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:06,400
we're in our 30s. Or just things that like our parents should have taught us or like

11
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:14,480
high school should have taught us to do so that we can be good adults. Successful humans.

12
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:19,220
Maybe we've done them or maybe we haven't, but the things that we've learned. Before

13
00:01:19,220 --> 00:01:25,900
we dig in, something funny happened right before we started to record. You tell me what

14
00:01:25,900 --> 00:01:33,000
you did and I'll tell you what my reaction was because I'll tell you why it was anyways.

15
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,360
We're posting. So we were posting an episode and I looked at it and I was like, oh yeah,

16
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,880
by the way, I was like, I was looking on the thing and I was like, oh yeah, by the way,

17
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:47,480
I changed the logo to a different color. It's the same logo, but it has a different background.

18
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,080
It's got a white background. And I was like, oh yeah, I changed the logo on the posting

19
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,360
this week. I was testing it out to see what it looked like and I forgot to tell you about

20
00:01:55,360 --> 00:02:00,640
it because I actually, honestly forgot that I put it on there. I had it in there and then

21
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,240
I forgot. But then-

22
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:07,800
The best part about it was, is I was wondering on my way over here because I was listening

23
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:12,640
to today's episode on my way and I was like, finally I had like closed and locked my phone

24
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:16,800
or whatever. So it gives you that preview of whatever's playing on your phone because

25
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,520
it was playing in my car. And I was like, what the fuck is this thing white for? And

26
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:27,440
then I was like, that's weird. I swear to God, I only changed my home computer stuff

27
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:33,560
to dark mode. And I was thinking, did everything just go into dark mode after what I did today?

28
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:38,480
Because I changed my browser, my Outlook, my OneNote. My team was already in dark mode,

29
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:43,400
but then I was like, how did this affect my phone? I was thinking that I was putting whatever,

30
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:49,760
I think I was listening on Spotify, that it turned the logo white because it was in dark

31
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,120
mode. That is not what happened. Emily just did it.

32
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,920
I just, yeah, I did it. I kind of thought it was cute, but like-

33
00:02:56,920 --> 00:02:59,920
Oh, I don't think it's bad. No. It just threw me for a loop.

34
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:04,960
And I forgot about it and I'm like, oh shoot. But yeah, anyway, so there's a white logo

35
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:10,200
out there. It's just for the episode, not for like all the things. But you know, throwing

36
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,720
out some different logos there.

37
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,880
Yeah. We got to keep you all on your toes because Emily's keeping me on mine for sure.

38
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:23,040
All right. Let's jump. Oh, do you have fuck, marry, kill? Because I can think of one.

39
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:24,040
Go ahead. Okay.

40
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:30,240
I was thinking about it on the way over here and then I was like, I just, I don't know.

41
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,240
Firefighter, police officer, or an EMT?

42
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:40,240
You are, I am so fucking dead right now. I was literally going to say the same thing

43
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,240
and I was like, no, that's too close to home right now.

44
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,240
That's perfect.

45
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:52,240
I didn't have a third one, but I did have firefighter and police. And I was like, oh

46
00:03:52,240 --> 00:04:03,400
my God. Okay. This is perfect. We have ESP tonight. Okay. I am going to marry an EMT

47
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:08,520
because oftentimes they're also firefighters and then they can, you know, hopefully save

48
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,040
my life or at least give me the Heimlich maneuver. You have no idea how many times-

49
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,280
You say all three can do those things. Well, I don't know. Well, anyways, but they can

50
00:04:16,280 --> 00:04:22,200
also run a line if I need some fluids or something, you know, I'm just, just saying.

51
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,200
I got you.

52
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:30,680
Yeah. A save your life kind of dude, but this is hilarious. And then I think I'm going

53
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:40,160
to kill the police officer and I hate to say that, but like they get a bad rap across the

54
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:45,920
board and like, I just, that's all I'm going to say is they get a bad rap. So I'm going

55
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,120
to kill them and I'm going to fuck a firefighter and hopefully he's wearing them pants when

56
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,120
I do it.

57
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,640
Well, okay. So that's about par for the course for firefighters because they have a reputation

58
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:06,280
for being hoes in my opinion, at least. So, and I think that police officers have a bad

59
00:05:06,280 --> 00:05:15,240
rap and I'm like kind of torn about this, but like I honestly, if, if it wasn't for,

60
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,120
for them getting a bad reputation because of all the stuff that's happened with police

61
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,000
officers or whatnot, I would, I'm going to marry the police officer because I'm pretty

62
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,600
sure the police officers make more money.

63
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:31,280
EMTs make like no money. And I'm like, okay, you're gonna have to have like 10 jobs to

64
00:05:31,280 --> 00:05:35,920
be able to do, you know, whatever you're doing. Also, EMTs are usually younger. I think actually

65
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:40,600
maybe they're not, I don't know. And then I'm going to, what does that say? Marry the

66
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,960
police officer, kill the firefighter. Well, no, I'm not. I'm going to fuck the firefighter

67
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:51,200
because they like to fuck, you know what I mean? And I'm going to kill the EMT, even

68
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:58,320
though I do really like the EMT, but you know, sorry, you don't make enough money for me.

69
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,960
That's terrible. That's a terrible thing for me to judge them on. But also police officers

70
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:09,520
can like get you out of a ticket and EMT can't and a firefighter usually knows like basic

71
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,840
CPR. And I have like medical people in my family and I can like probably do all those

72
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:20,400
things that you want it. Like I can do like all that. So I don't need it.

73
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:27,000
Fair enough. Fair enough. All right. So I, so I can just start at it if we want. Just

74
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:34,080
go into it. Okay. You should start saving. And I think you should start saving before

75
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:41,000
you're in your thirties. You shouldn't start saving. Listen, it's very hard to save, especially

76
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:45,240
when you're not making money when you're in college and you don't like maybe you first

77
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,100
starting out, you don't have a good job. And it's like, I feel like I've been like catching

78
00:06:49,100 --> 00:06:54,680
up my whole life. Like I like don't have good savings. Like I need to get more savings.

79
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,600
And then like as soon as I get the savings, then I'm like, okay, I'm going to buy a house

80
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,720
and use all my savings from my down payment. And then it's like, grab, I got to start over.

81
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,360
But like that and like saving for retirement is like a really big deal. Yeah. And nobody

82
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:11,360
really, I mean, they, some people do tell you, but like, it's not like really stressed

83
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,480
a lot. No. And I mean, whenever a company hires you, it's not their job to teach you,

84
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,960
you know, how to save for retirement. They give you what, whatever their benefits and

85
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,120
options are and you just pick something. We should be telling people to save for retirement

86
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:30,640
because you, we can't have everybody working when they're retired. Have you seen the new

87
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:35,680
things on the news where the old, the old people, oh my God, the senior citizens, like

88
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,560
90 years old people are like, uh, life cards they're getting, cause they can't get hired

89
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,760
anywhere else. And I saw this one lady, she was on, I don't know which channel it was,

90
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,760
but she was on there and she was like, yeah, I tried to get a job at McDonald's and they

91
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,760
told me and I'm like, dang, they're gonna get a lawsuit from this. They told me that

92
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,800
they couldn't hire her cause she was 90 years old, but she didn't say it like in a bad way.

93
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,520
She just said, yeah, they just said no. And maybe they didn't say those words. Well, that's

94
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,720
something, it would definitely be something that they could bring to the EEOC if they

95
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:09,520
had said you're too old. Right. Exactly. But so she is a lifeguard at like a splash pad

96
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:16,480
now. I can't, I think it's cool, but like, you know, sometimes you need to have a job

97
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:23,120
when you're old. Yeah. Absolutely. Um, especially if you don't save your health becomes considerably

98
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:28,760
more important. Well, your health is always important. Sure. But you don't bounce back

99
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:37,320
from things as easily when you're older. Yeah. So you should not get, not eat Cheetos and

100
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:43,280
go to third meal. I mean, fourth meal at Taco Bell every night when you're in your twenties

101
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:49,560
don't drink like the, don't drink like a bunch of like white Russians and like creamy drinks

102
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:53,760
and sugary drinks when you're younger, only drink vodka soda so that you stay skinny so

103
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:59,360
that you don't get fat. And cause you will not be able to lose it. Yes. That's the truth.

104
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,640
Because it's really bad for your health. Your ass will drop. Apparently. Okay. So according

105
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:08,400
to whatever lists Sarah got, it says that your ass will drop. And I sent her my, what

106
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:13,600
did I say? I said, honey, for the record, our asses have not dropped and they bang on

107
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:23,600
to, I'm pretty sure they've gotten bigger. Mine will never drop. My mom's is still up

108
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:29,920
there. My mom doesn't have one. No offense, Donnie, but, um, you'll gain speaking of,

109
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:35,920
you'll gain new respect for your parents. You're going to say you'll gain weight. No,

110
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,920
you'll gain a new respect for your parents. Yeah. Especially after you have kids, even

111
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:43,880
though we don't have kids, but like I see like how it is for other people with kids

112
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:49,680
and I'm like, dang, I see. I mean, I already see my parents differently than I used to.

113
00:09:49,680 --> 00:09:55,520
And you know, I definitely respect them and their opinion and I involve them and stuff

114
00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:01,480
that, you know, I didn't as like a teenager think that I would involve them in, you know?

115
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:06,480
Yeah. Well, I respect, there's a, I respect my parents more, but then there's also things

116
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:11,440
that I look back and I'm like, I can't believe you did that. Like now, now that I realize

117
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:17,520
I'm like, Oh my God. And, but I didn't think about it back then. Yeah. Um, you'll feel

118
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:23,440
hangovers the night before. Well, that's because we day drink now because we like to go to

119
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:28,160
bed at eight. Well, you got to pick one or the other. There, you cannot do both. You

120
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:33,120
cannot start at 11 a.m. And finish at four in the morning. Well, we do do that still

121
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,520
sometimes. I haven't done it in a very long time. Well, not four o'clock in the morning,

122
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:41,360
but like two o'clock. The only time I do it is with you. I don't know why it's always

123
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:47,680
with me. It's not, it shouldn't always be with me, but it's the truth I guess. It's

124
00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:52,680
because we have so much fun. I can't stop. And speaking of, you'll wish you hadn't fallen

125
00:10:52,680 --> 00:10:56,800
asleep with your makeup on. Oh my God. I do that all the time still. Girl, they say that

126
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:02,560
it ages your face seven years every time you sleep with your makeup on. Listen, honey.

127
00:11:02,560 --> 00:11:11,320
The other day I was at the, um, what is that bar called? Uh, the Derby. Oh, I saw that.

128
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,800
And this lady was standing bar. She's 37 or not at the bar. We're standing in line for

129
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:21,200
the bathroom. She looks the same age as me. She's 37. I'm 35. She's like, well, I'm so

130
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,120
much older than you. I was like, no, you're not. And she's like, yes, I am. And I was

131
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,480
like arguing back and forth. I was like, I'm 35. I was like, well, how old are you? She

132
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,840
was like 37. I was like, well, I'm only two years younger than you. And she's like, oh,

133
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,000
and she pointed to these girls that look like they were about 18. She's like, I mean, I'm

134
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,800
assuming these girls were like 25 and I just assume that's how old you are. And I was like,

135
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:43,680
it's because I was wearing a t-shirt and leggings. I didn't get drunk. Like I feel like I look

136
00:11:43,680 --> 00:11:49,760
younger. So yes, I was like, nope. I didn't know we were going like out like that. 100%.

137
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:54,480
That is something that I did not know was a concept in my twenties that I know now that

138
00:11:54,480 --> 00:12:00,240
it is not a fashion show. Comfort is key. I've said this so many freaking times and

139
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:08,520
it, you can meet a man in a t-shirt and leggings at the bar if you so wish. It doesn't matter

140
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:13,960
because nobody really fucking cares. Speaking of meeting a man at the bar in my t-shirt

141
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:19,440
and leggings, I was wearing my, uh, pair ring. Where is it? You took it off. Well, because

142
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,600
I haven't been going, I've been in the house for two days. Okay. So I don't have it on.

143
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,440
I don't like, don't like wearing jewelry. Like I don't even, I have, I did have earrings

144
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,040
on because I had to, well, I did have, I had a zoom call. So I had to have those earrings

145
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:40,280
on. So, uh, I was at the bar and I got the first time in my entire life, a man slash

146
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:47,560
boy, I think he was a boy, bought me a drink and passed it through my friends, passed it

147
00:12:47,560 --> 00:12:52,360
through Rose and Dana and like some other people pass it through them and was like,

148
00:12:52,360 --> 00:13:00,720
I want it to be for that girl right there. Yeah. No, I, well, we'll go about, we won't

149
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:07,880
talk about that on public, but, but also then after that, the police officer who was working

150
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:12,480
that night, we won't mention his name. I did want him to come. I asked him if we could

151
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,520
enter, if I could phone interview him for the Carly Russell thing. Like not because

152
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,520
he doesn't know anything about it. It's not Hoover police department, but he was, I wanted

153
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:27,080
to like ask him about like what they, how they handle situations like that, like why

154
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:33,840
they didn't release it for four days. Things like that. Yeah. Anyway, so he also was like,

155
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:39,920
I like, I'm pretty sure I touched his taser accidentally and not the taser, like the real

156
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:47,600
taser and he was like, he liked me. He's still texting me sometimes. Okay. So anyways, Popo

157
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:53,960
liked me. I'm calling Popo and that was two, but nobody mentioned anything about the ring,

158
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,120
but I was in t-shirt and leggings and I had my ring on and that never happens to me. I

159
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:02,080
never get hit on ever. So I don't know if it was the leggings and it was the leggings

160
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:07,080
for the cop. He was like, he said, dope personality, dude. I didn't talk to them before they talked

161
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:12,360
to me. So they probably saw you. I know cause I'm cool. They saw you from the corner of

162
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:18,320
the eye and they said, no, he did say, he said, I don't, he was like, not a lot of girls,

163
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,960
not a lot of, I don't know if he said white girls, but I knew he meant it. Not a lot of

164
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:28,640
white girls like you are thick, natural thick like you, you know? Yeah. And I was like,

165
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:34,620
yeah, I know. I get it from my mama. Okay. So anyways, um, you'll find out who your friends

166
00:14:34,620 --> 00:14:42,400
are. Well, yeah, I mean like, I don't think that has anything to do necessarily. Well,

167
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,640
maybe in your thirties because people start either getting married or having kids and

168
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:52,720
stuff like that. So I think that at that point in time, you know, when your friends start

169
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,600
getting married and having kids, like you do have to make more of an effort to keep

170
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,680
up with that friendship. So maybe, I mean, in that context, I was going to ask, I was

171
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,440
like, how do you find out who your friends are? Like, is it, it's because like the people

172
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:07,960
that want to make an effort to like hang out with you, you know, and make you a, not necessarily

173
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:12,800
a priority, but like make you like your relationship like happen. Sure. Like maybe they become

174
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:18,740
a different kind of friend where it's more of like an acquaintance type situation now

175
00:15:18,740 --> 00:15:25,680
instead of like a you go grab dinner or like tech, you know, I'm sorry to say it, but you

176
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:30,480
can spend quality time texting a friend. That's true. Like in catching up that way. You just

177
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:43,120
do. So yeah. But anyways, you can't have everything. Yes, you can. Okay. I think we can. I don't

178
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:48,320
know. There's always going to be sacrifices to be made. Well, there are always sacrifices

179
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:53,160
to be made, but I think it's possible. I think everything is possible. And I stopped trying

180
00:15:53,160 --> 00:16:01,480
to kill my buzz. Okay. Your buzz from your water. Right. Okay. No, my buzz on life. Um,

181
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:06,240
you can still take risks and make changes. Like there's no period in time where you just

182
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:11,600
have to stop doing those things. Doing what? They risk. Oh, and make, okay. So hold on.

183
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:17,280
You can still take, oh, I thought, okay. So it's not like you can still take risks and

184
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:24,000
make changes at the same time. I I'm confused. I think what they were saying is like just

185
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:28,880
because you like hit 30 doesn't mean that you have to be complacent in your life. Okay.

186
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:33,200
So it's, it's, you can still take risks and you can also still make changes, not you can

187
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:39,720
still be at risk. And make changes like because of the risks. I was getting confused on the

188
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:45,160
wording in that. I don't know what's going on with my head right now. Okay. I got you.

189
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:49,560
So like basically if you wanted to move somewhere, you could. That's making a change and a risk

190
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,440
at the same time. If you wanted to change like I did, I'm in my thirties and I changed

191
00:16:53,440 --> 00:17:00,440
industries as far as my job goes. I mean my job title and what I actually do is, you know,

192
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:05,320
relatively the same. The concept is anyways, but I mean I made a change to a completely

193
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:11,600
different industry and I have no regrets. I'm ready to make a complete change to a different

194
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:19,240
industry called, um, socialite, no work. Um, I'll play, have a lot of money. Please help

195
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:27,120
me out. Go fund me. I sound so terrible. I do work really hard. You do work hard, but

196
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:32,240
I think that's why you say the things that you say because you know that you bust your

197
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:39,440
ass and this, the thought of that is fun time for you. Right. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Um, travel

198
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:45,680
while you don't have too many ties, which like babies and yeah, I would, yeah, I would

199
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:51,120
assume like husbands that are going to be like, eh, you can't go on a girl's trip. Yeah.

200
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:56,220
Yeah. Oh, but you know what? Also don't marry somebody. This is another thing you should,

201
00:17:56,220 --> 00:18:00,280
you should do. Don't marry somebody that's going to turn into that person that says that

202
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,040
you can't go and marry somebody that has their friend, their own friends and has you have

203
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,520
friends or their friends with your friends and they allow you to not like both of you

204
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,640
have, can be your own person and you don't have to be together at all. Gracefully independent

205
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:20,240
when you're gone. Exactly. And not bitch at you about it. Right. Um, sleep becomes increasingly

206
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:25,440
important, which we talked about. Sleep is always important. It is. And we talked about

207
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,040
it last week. My biggest fear being not sleeping and guess who hasn't slept very good in the

208
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:35,800
last two nights? This girl. And it's really annoying and super frustrating. Like I'm going

209
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:43,160
to have some vodka drinks when I go home so I can conk out tonight. Okay. I'm on board

210
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:49,840
with that. Maybe I should do that too. But, but then here comes this one. Start going

211
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,080
to sleep and waking up at the same time every day. Was that Michelle? What's her name? And

212
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:59,000
that face? Yes. Oh my God. You're reading my mind today. Like literally, did you see

213
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,680
my face? And I was like, I had that. I was like, going to say it after you finished.

214
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:09,080
I was like, you still look just like her. And you said it before I could say it. Oh,

215
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:14,680
you look just like you had that all. What's her name? Michelle Dubose or something? I

216
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:20,520
can't remember, but she is, she has some standups and she was also the assistant in always be

217
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:25,400
my maybe. And she's in the host of the circle. Oh, she was the host of the circle. Yeah.

218
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,400
Oh, that's what I already said. I really liked her. I forgot about her being the host of

219
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:34,680
the circle, but she is, has this new show called, what did I call it? Oh, it's down

220
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:42,160
with the thickness. And she, Sarah is like, they do so many like faces and the way that

221
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:46,000
they talk, like, cause she has like an, an accent, like a New York accent. I don't know

222
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,080
if it's New York, but she has a Northern accent or a different accent than Southern. And I

223
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:55,260
feel like she says stuff and I am just like, that is Sarah and like their faces have kind

224
00:19:55,260 --> 00:19:59,040
of the same shape, but sort of, but not really. They're both very pretty and they both have

225
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:04,000
curly hair. And it's just like, I mean, her hair is a lot curlier than Sarah's, but, but

226
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:09,560
it's like, I like see her when I watch her, I'm like, I take it as a compliment because

227
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,720
I also think that she's very pretty and I think she's funny. So I'll take it any day.

228
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:18,320
She's hilarious. But my next one was going to be after I talked about having some vodka

229
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,600
drinks and going to bed was start going to sleep and waking up at the same time every

230
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:27,480
day. Yeah. I can't do that. I can't either. I did really good last night. So last night

231
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:34,400
I was editing and I was done by like nine 30. Normally it's like two o'clock in the

232
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:39,200
morning and I'm like, ah, there was a lot, you know, those things happen sometimes. Start

233
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:43,840
learning to be happy with what you have. That is, that is a really good thing. So like,

234
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,120
I have to wake up every day and be like, I'm, I'm very happy with that. I have, I mean,

235
00:20:47,120 --> 00:20:51,200
sometimes I'm like, Oh my God, my house is a wreck, but like, I like to go out on my,

236
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,400
like, which I cannot technically allow to go on my balcony right now, but we're just

237
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,600
going to say, I like to look out the window on my balcony and be like, this is amazing.

238
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:04,120
I can't believe I have this. And look what you did. Look what you worked for and what

239
00:21:04,120 --> 00:21:09,640
you got. And I did that with Rose and DJ. I should do that in the morning. You should,

240
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:14,600
I should wake up and just be thankful. Yeah. Thankful. I'm awake. Thankful that my dog

241
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,840
is awake or whatever. And look what you've worked for. You've worked so hard for all

242
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:25,040
these things that you have. Yeah. It's so true. Yeah. Yeah. Um, stop thinking you need

243
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:32,040
to satisfy everyone. That's a huge problem that I have. And I feel like you do as well.

244
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:36,440
And I think it's really important to make sure that you take care of yourself sometimes.

245
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:42,240
I have that problem, but I also have a problem with, with me, all me thinking I shouldn't

246
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:46,960
have to satisfy everyone, but in my body, I'm like, I need to satisfy everybody. But

247
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:51,360
I'm like, I shouldn't have to do this. So I get pissed off and I'll be like, no, I'm

248
00:21:51,360 --> 00:21:55,520
not doing that. You know what I mean? Like, Oh, recently this has happened a lot lately.

249
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,200
And I'm like, I shouldn't have to defend myself either for some things that I, like if I'm

250
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,160
not going to do something, I shouldn't have to be like, well, this is why I shouldn't

251
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:08,400
have to defend myself. I should just be able to say no. Right. Yeah. So, um, start forgiving

252
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:14,760
yourself for your mistakes. And I think that's super important. And I think that if we learned

253
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:20,680
that early on, that it was, you know, okay to make mistakes, even ones of like major

254
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:28,200
magnitude that a lot of people in life would have very different attitudes because if we're

255
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:33,000
taught that it's like the end of the world when we fail at something or maybe don't do

256
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:37,400
something, you know, a hundred percent correct, you know, not necessarily failure, like of

257
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:43,020
a class or whatever, like that can give a kid anxiety big time. Well, that's how I feel

258
00:22:43,020 --> 00:22:47,240
like my whole life. Like if I did something wrong and like, I felt, I felt, and maybe

259
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:52,920
it wasn't like that with guilt. I don't think that my parents aimed it at me or did it on

260
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:58,960
purpose, but like, I felt like it was the end of the world if something. Yeah. Absolutely.

261
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:05,120
But maybe that's why I'm so awesome. Yeah. I don't know. It could be bad or good. Um,

262
00:23:05,120 --> 00:23:12,680
and then the last one of these is just, there's no one form of success. Um, and I agree with

263
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:17,320
that. I mean, self comparison, we've talked about it before, especially with social media.

264
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:21,960
It's definitely there, but I think we should all remind ourselves just like we talked about

265
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:26,280
being thankful in the morning. Remind yourself that you are your own success and whatever

266
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:31,560
it means to you or not what it means to somebody else. Yeah. Um, and then the last three that

267
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:37,480
I wrote down, they were how to buy a house, how to change a tire and how to change a diaper.

268
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:42,280
Yeah. Like, okay. If you don't know how to change a diaper yet, something wrong with

269
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:47,480
you. I mean, I haven't had to do it in a really long time, but like, it's not like goals.

270
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:51,520
Well, I know a lot of people that don't know how to do it. Oh yeah. And I, and people that

271
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:56,520
haven't had, and that's the thing. So like when I, when Daniel, um, my, my brothers,

272
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,800
both of my brothers started having kids, I didn't know what to do with the kid because

273
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:05,760
like my parents never really had like friends that had younger kids around me. And I had

274
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:10,920
a lot of other friends, a lot of my friends in high school had younger siblings. I just

275
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:16,000
had Daniel and he's like 18 months younger than me. So we didn't have a lot of like young

276
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,840
kids that we had to like take care of or like we went over to their house and their friends

277
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,080
were there with their baby, you know, they, those things. So I didn't get to like do the

278
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:30,320
babysitting thing. Um, and I didn't know what to do, like how to hold a baby. I don't know

279
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,640
how to do anything. I was like, Oh, when I saw babies, like, Oh God, I'm going to hurt

280
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,640
it. I mean, they're cute, whatever. But like, I didn't know what to do, but I learned and

281
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:43,200
I was like, I can't believe I never learned how to do this. Right. Um, and I feel like

282
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:47,960
when you first do it, you feel like you're, you know, Oh my gosh, this is, I don't know

283
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:52,120
if I'm doing, you know, but it's really not hard and you should know how to do it. Yeah,

284
00:24:52,120 --> 00:24:55,960
for sure. And then changing a tire on your car, I learned how to do that. My dad made

285
00:24:55,960 --> 00:25:03,400
me do it multiple times before I started driving. And the other day, my neighbor, she got a

286
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:08,880
flat tire and was like, Oh my God, I need to drive. She was going to drive her car on

287
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:14,160
the flat tire. That's like two words. I know. I said, no, no, no. She was driving off and

288
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,920
she wanted, I thought she, she wanted me to take her there. She was driving off in her

289
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,880
car to the place and I was like, Whoa, whoa, whoa. Running after her, like yelling, stop,

290
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:26,120
you're going to ruin your rim. Like you're going to ruin your tire. Like you're, you're

291
00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:30,440
going to have to get a whole wheel. And she was like, Oh, and I'm like, yeah, like you

292
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:34,600
need to park it. And like there's wheels for a reason. I know. And I said, I'll change

293
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,880
it for you and how to do it. She's like, no, I have AAA for that. And I'm like, well, okay.

294
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:43,240
That makes, I mean, that's easier for me, but I will do it as well. Like if I were in

295
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:49,040
an area where AAA couldn't get to me for like a really long time or just couldn't get to

296
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:54,880
me period, then I would change the tire by myself, but I have AAA. I'm calling them first.

297
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:59,080
Right. I don't have AAA. I have, I'm sure my insurance, like if I called them or whatever,

298
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,080
I would send somebody, but yeah, I know that you should definitely know how to do that.

299
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,400
Look, I know how to do so many jacked up things when a car that breaks down because I had

300
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:13,400
to drive so many times with the car broken down. I like, I, and I'm pretty sure that

301
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:18,400
my car, my car that I have now is going to soon become, be coming to the age of when

302
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,440
it starts. Like it doesn't have a lot of miles on it, but it's like old, it looks like getting,

303
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:27,240
it's probably like four years old, but soon, cause time goes by very fast, especially gets

304
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,560
by faster when you get older. It's going to be to the point where it's going to be like

305
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:35,280
start breaking down again. And I drive my car until it's dead. Always. I don't know

306
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:40,080
why because I don't like want to go buy a car. I also don't want to have a car payment.

307
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:47,640
So that, and you should learn how to like budget and like buy, like learn the things

308
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:52,280
that you're supposed to do as an adult. Like if you want to buy a house, like those, my

309
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,960
parents didn't teach me anything. And then I asked them and they blow your, your realtor

310
00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:01,000
will tell you my realtor didn't tell me anything unless I asked her, ask questions. That is

311
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:07,040
a big thing. Ask questions. Don't just like go through life, like assuming somebody's

312
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,080
going to tell you or Google it and assume that everything you read is right. Yeah. Don't

313
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:17,440
do that. But also learn what they teach you this. And I don't know if they teach you in

314
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:22,880
a high school or college, but they teach you this in something that there are certain references

315
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:30,720
on the internet and places that are correct and certain places that are not. Right. And

316
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:38,240
sometimes Buzzfeed is not most of the time, Buzzfeed all the time. Buzzfeed is not the

317
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:42,480
right answer, but we do use that a lot for our references just because it's funny. Well,

318
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:48,080
yeah, because we're using it in a comical way. So we're not trying to be factual. So

319
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:53,960
yeah, but yeah, that, and then also don't, you should, you should learn how to rescue

320
00:27:53,960 --> 00:28:03,420
a dog and not have to keep it. Cause all of my friends have like 15 dogs each. Except

321
00:28:03,420 --> 00:28:08,800
for me. Well, you have one, but yours is like five dogs compared to like my, all my dogs

322
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:13,880
together is the size of your dog. So, I don't know. We, we can cut this short today. Is

323
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:18,000
that why you're getting up, sitting up straight? Well, I'm uncomfortable. I'm uncomfortable.

324
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:22,000
I'm hungry and it has nothing to do with your chair or anything like that. No, I'm just

325
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:26,920
changing positions. She's hungry. So we gonna get out of here since we gave you a bonus
