1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,400
What's up, y'all?

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:10,040
Just needed to let y'all know that in today's excitement in our episode, we definitely went

3
00:00:10,040 --> 00:00:11,040
way too long.

4
00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:12,960
We're figuring that out.

5
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:18,240
But because of the super long length, we cut the episode up into two.

6
00:00:18,240 --> 00:00:22,760
So part one's gonna be this week, part two's gonna be next.

7
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:28,320
So make sure to join us so you can follow along and keep up with us.

8
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:34,880
Also definitely forgot to mention in the beginning of this episode to follow us on Just Take

9
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:39,720
My Money Podcast with underscores for spacing for the products that we're going to talk

10
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,520
about today and next week.

11
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:49,360
And for the actual clickable links to these products, you'll want to find those in our

12
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:56,660
Comey link, which is found in our Instagram, but also you can just go straight to Comey

13
00:00:56,660 --> 00:01:02,000
and search under JustTakeMyMoneyPodcast.Comey.io.

14
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,320
Comey is spelled K-O-M-I.

15
00:01:05,320 --> 00:01:12,520
Also keep in mind, this is a tad bit of an explicit podcast, meaning just more like adult

16
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,120
languages used.

17
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,120
So if you're not all about that, that's totally cool.

18
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:27,520
But you know, here's your warning.

19
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:42,040
Howdy, howdy, everybody.

20
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:43,040
Welcome back.

21
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:49,920
We're so fucking excited to be back.

22
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,640
As you can see, here and here.

23
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:54,640
Yes.

24
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,640
Lovely Lauren has finally joined.

25
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,640
Hello, hello.

26
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:04,040
Lauren, how happy are you to like finally be on air?

27
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:10,320
I'm excited and also weird to hear my voice.

28
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:11,320
It's weird.

29
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:16,000
It's weird to sit down and be like, okay, I'm gonna talk and I'm gonna listen to myself.

30
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,240
And this is normal.

31
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:19,240
This is so normal.

32
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,520
At least you're here so that I can talk to you instead of just talking to this mic.

33
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:24,560
Okay, yeah.

34
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:32,840
So that's one thing that I've been attempting to implement, like a far away recording system.

35
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,040
But to do that would definitely have to be over video because-

36
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,040
1000% over Skype.

37
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,200
I don't think I could just do it.

38
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:43,120
I would make funny faces and do weird things to the mic or something.

39
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,160
But then at the same time, we've had phone conversations where we're just as weird.

40
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,160
So like-

41
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:49,160
That's true.

42
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,800
I guess it's doable, but it's more fun to see the person's reaction.

43
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:52,800
Yeah.

44
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:53,800
Yeah.

45
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:54,800
Yeah.

46
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,400
Yeah, it makes it a lot more fun.

47
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,400
Yeah, right?

48
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:58,400
Yeah.

49
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,400
Yeah.

50
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:06,320
To recap for everybody, so for now on, it's gonna be me and Lauren.

51
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,920
And let me tell you, it's gonna be a hell of a fucking time because neither of us have

52
00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:11,920
a filter-

53
00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:12,920
No.

54
00:03:12,920 --> 00:03:15,840
Of what little filter we do have.

55
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:21,080
And we align very well with the things that we like.

56
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,640
We egg each other on to do these things and buy these things.

57
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:29,960
Yeah, we're cheerleaders for one another, which sometimes is not the greatest at all.

58
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,320
Yeah, because then we end up almost falling for a scented scam.

59
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,760
So we'll have to get into that.

60
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,720
We'll have to explain the story because I know your memory is better than mine.

61
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:42,720
Yeah.

62
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:43,720
And-

63
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:44,920
Because I experienced it?

64
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:50,040
Yeah, you experienced it and I was just on the other phone end of like, don't buy it,

65
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,040
don't buy it.

66
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,040
And I'm like, no!

67
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,320
Almost sold my soul to the devil.

68
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,960
They tried to convince you, you did.

69
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:56,960
Yeah, they did.

70
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:57,960
They did.

71
00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:58,960
Yeah.

72
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:04,520
And then a couple weeks later, I received an email that listed my bill sort of thing

73
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,920
and then my credit score.

74
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:07,920
And they were-

75
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:08,920
Was it a fake credit score?

76
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:09,920
Yeah, it wasn't my real credit score.

77
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:10,920
Oh my god, thank god.

78
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:11,920
I'm like-

79
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,320
Automatically panicked, checked my credit score, called my husband, was like, oh my

80
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:16,320
god, I'm fucked up.

81
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,320
Oh my god, I'm fucked up.

82
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,600
And he's like, no, it's a scam.

83
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:22,600
Don't believe it.

84
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,520
It's not your real credit score.

85
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,440
So he's like, not unless they send us a bill, are we responsible for anything?

86
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,920
And I never got a bill because I didn't sell my soul to the devil.

87
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:33,920
Thought I did.

88
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,680
Okay, but I gotta know, is the credit score they gave you better or worse than what you

89
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:39,680
had?

90
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:40,680
It was worse.

91
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:41,680
Okay, how dare they?

92
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,880
I was gonna say, I mean, if they boosted it up, I would have been like, very nice of them.

93
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:46,880
Thank you.

94
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:47,880
Like, appreciate it.

95
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:48,880
Like, aww, thanks.

96
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,680
Like, thank you for believing in me.

97
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:51,680
Yeah, no.

98
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,760
Instead, they're like, bitch, this is your credit score, this is how bad you need good

99
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:56,760
sense in your life.

100
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:57,760
Yeah, like, you suck.

101
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,480
Um, you need this in your life.

102
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,440
So then at that point, it's like, how is that convincing to somebody?

103
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,800
I don't know, I went to panic.

104
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:11,360
Okay, let's be more concerned of the fact that this was a, this is a scented product.

105
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,600
It is a diffuser, a scent diffuser.

106
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,740
Yeah, and it like directly, the item, the product that they were selling me was one

107
00:05:20,740 --> 00:05:24,320
of the products that directly connected into your HVAC system.

108
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,040
Oh, the big boy.

109
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,040
The big boy.

110
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,120
Okay, so it was a Mother's Day special that was going on.

111
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,280
Well, then you did not tell me you tried to upgrade yours.

112
00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:34,040
I didn't try to upgrade.

113
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:40,280
This man was like, this is what you get because it's Mother's Day.

114
00:05:40,280 --> 00:05:41,600
So this is what you get.

115
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:46,960
You get the big mama, mama jam on whatever the heck it was.

116
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:48,800
And I was like, what?

117
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:49,800
I get what?

118
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,880
And he was like, yeah, because it's a Mother's Day sale.

119
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,800
So you'll get this one, it connects to your HVAC system.

120
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,560
Like I was like, that's amazing.

121
00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:58,560
He's like, it's free.

122
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,400
And I was like, free?

123
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:02,680
And he's like, yeah, because it's Mother's Day.

124
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,140
He's like, you just have to pay for the scented oils.

125
00:06:05,140 --> 00:06:06,640
And I was like, what?

126
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,860
I was like, no way.

127
00:06:08,860 --> 00:06:13,560
So like he explained it to me that the scented oils and how the scented oils work and how

128
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:18,960
much you get and how many bottles and how often they ship and they ship like quarterly,

129
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:24,560
you get so many bottles, the bottles last you XYZ, you get this many scents.

130
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:31,320
And I just kept asking more questions, which I'm sure he was like, ask all the questions.

131
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,120
I'm going to get this girl hook line and sinker.

132
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,120
Literally the words I was thinking.

133
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,280
Reeling me in.

134
00:06:36,280 --> 00:06:39,680
So I asked him about a million, a jillion questions.

135
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:44,160
And then we got to pricing and he was like, yeah, it's going to be like $2.86.

136
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,840
And I was like, hold up, bitch, please.

137
00:06:47,840 --> 00:06:49,660
I was like $2.86.

138
00:06:49,660 --> 00:06:50,660
And he was like, yeah.

139
00:06:50,660 --> 00:06:53,300
And I said $2.86 a month.

140
00:06:53,300 --> 00:06:54,300
And he was like, yeah, $2.86.

141
00:06:54,300 --> 00:06:56,440
How does that make any sense a month?

142
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:01,920
And then I was like, wait, for the year annually or is it $2.86 a month?

143
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,340
And he was like, no, you just paid $2.86.

144
00:07:04,340 --> 00:07:09,360
And I was like, which, but for the year or for the month?

145
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,360
He didn't even want to tell you.

146
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:11,360
No, he didn't.

147
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,360
Because I was like, that doesn't make sense.

148
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:20,320
I was like, you're giving me this diffuser for quote unquote, free, air quotes, listeners.

149
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,960
And the oils are like $180 a bottle.

150
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:29,600
Which does not make sense because we saw photos of their fucking oils.

151
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,240
There was nothing special about them.

152
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,200
They were just diffuser oils.

153
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,200
Yeah.

154
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:41,280
But the bottle that he was trying to get me to do in this packaged deal was like the big

155
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:46,960
bottles that they send to like the hotels that use them.

156
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,880
To a woman who just wanted it for her house.

157
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:51,880
Yeah.

158
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,080
And I told him what like the square footage of my house.

159
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,800
And he was like, all these bottles will last you.

160
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,720
And then if you need to like cancel the bottles for like one month, you can cancel because

161
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,480
they only ship quarterly because it costs them so much to ship.

162
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,280
But then when he told me $2.89, I was like, but wait, you told me each bottle was like

163
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,280
$180.

164
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:10,280
Yeah.

165
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:11,280
How I said, that's not math-ing.

166
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:12,280
Yeah.

167
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:13,280
The math-ing, math-ing my bro.

168
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,280
No.

169
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,560
And like I literally laid everything out to him.

170
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:25,240
And then I was like, so you're trying to tell me I get XYZ for $2.89.

171
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,400
And I said, and this is annually or monthly?

172
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,080
There was a long pause.

173
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,520
And then he said monthly.

174
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,320
And I was like, oh no, I can't swing that.

175
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,320
He knew.

176
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:36,680
He knew that was going to be the deal breaker.

177
00:08:36,680 --> 00:08:37,680
Yeah.

178
00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:38,680
He sent me like the bill.

179
00:08:38,680 --> 00:08:41,000
And my soul left my body.

180
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,240
And I was like, wait, I don't remember what his name was.

181
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,120
I wish I had, but I was like, let's call him Jimothy.

182
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,120
I was going to say Jonathan.

183
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,800
Excuse me, Jonathan.

184
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,600
You just sent me this ridiculous number.

185
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:56,600
You said it was going to cost me $2.89.

186
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,160
And he was like, yeah, a month.

187
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,160
I said, mm-mm.

188
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,160
Mm-mm.

189
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,160
My husband will leave me.

190
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:02,160
I don't.

191
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,160
Mm-mm.

192
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,160
No.

193
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,440
My husband, it's not worth losing my husband over and sent it home.

194
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:08,440
No.

195
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:09,440
I'm not wrong.

196
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:10,440
I love delicious smells.

197
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:11,440
Yeah.

198
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,800
But I also love my husband.

199
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,400
And I can't go through the dating again.

200
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,360
But Lauren, you'd have a wonderful smelling home every single day.

201
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,840
Because that's what guys care about.

202
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,040
It's how good my house smells.

203
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,400
This scent is called the marry me smell.

204
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,400
Yes.

205
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,640
Oh my gosh.

206
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:37,400
This is called, um, she broke.

207
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,640
She spent it all on these oils.

208
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,000
This one's called crazy bitch because that's who I am now.

209
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,000
This is who I've become.

210
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,640
I was breaking it down.

211
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,600
I was like, that's how much of my car payment this is.

212
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,600
That is what this costs.

213
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,600
I was like, no, sir.

214
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:52,600
Mm-mm.

215
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:53,600
I'll buy a candle.

216
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,400
I was like, can I get your name and number and I'll call you back.

217
00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,960
So what makes me laugh is that whole combo happens with you.

218
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,360
You text me and you're like, don't fucking do it.

219
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:05,360
Yeah.

220
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:10,080
So we had the battle of submitting a scent survey because that's what led you down this

221
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,080
whole stupid road.

222
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,080
Thousand percent.

223
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,360
It was the fact that we found this website.

224
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,560
We see that there's a scent survey and we're both like, was it TikTok?

225
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:19,800
Did TikTok make us do it?

226
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,080
I think TikTok made us do it.

227
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,080
Okay.

228
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:23,080
But the lady- Oh my God.

229
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,080
Yes.

230
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,080
Yes.

231
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,080
Yes.

232
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,080
No.

233
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,080
I remember now.

234
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,080
I remember.

235
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,080
She had that big ass bougie house.

236
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,080
Yeah.

237
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,080
All right.

238
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,080
She had that- Friend, we should have known right away that we were not worthy.

239
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,080
That was a problem.

240
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,080
Why?

241
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:36,080
Because we do that to ourselves.

242
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:45,080
Because we were doing some training and some building that just smelled so wonderful.

243
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,360
It smelled fucking amazing.

244
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,200
And all we found was this mysterious little black box that we didn't know what the fuck

245
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:53,200
that did.

246
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,200
Yeah.

247
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,040
Actually to this day, we don't actually know that was what it was.

248
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:57,040
It was.

249
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,040
Was it?

250
00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,040
Yes.

251
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,040
Because I saw all the pictures online.

252
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,040
Why was it on the floor though?

253
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,040
It probably should have been in like- Because it was one of the other models.

254
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,040
Yeah.

255
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,040
Cheap bitches, right?

256
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:05,040
Yeah.

257
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,160
But yeah, so they had that shit or they had an off brand.

258
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:09,160
Who fucking knows?

259
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:17,240
But then that TikTok came up of that bougie woman in Texas who had that big ass house.

260
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:18,880
She had like four, remember?

261
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:19,880
Yes.

262
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:24,560
Because she went through, I watched the whole video and watched her refill all of them.

263
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:26,680
And I was like, oh, yes, please.

264
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:27,680
I can do this.

265
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:30,720
They were like all hooked up to her HVAC and everything.

266
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,840
And then you and I find the website and they had small diffusers.

267
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:35,840
Yeah.

268
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,120
Now, and I wasn't even seeing anything about, oh, it's free.

269
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,800
I just thought I'm willing to buy this for my living room.

270
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:42,800
Yeah.

271
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:43,800
So willing.

272
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,280
And so you took the lead.

273
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:46,840
I took a little longer.

274
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,120
I took the sample pack.

275
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,360
I tried to get the sample pack to see since and that's where it all-

276
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:53,360
Yeah.

277
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:54,360
How the hell does it lead down that way?

278
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:59,160
Note to self listeners, if something's like, hey, get the sample pack to figure out what

279
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:04,760
you like and the sample pack involves getting a phone call from somebody.

280
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:05,760
Don't do it.

281
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:06,760
Don't do it.

282
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:07,760
Don't answer.

283
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:08,760
Never answer.

284
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:09,760
They'll keep calling you.

285
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:10,760
Oh my God.

286
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:11,760
They kept calling me for months.

287
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:12,760
It was so long.

288
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,760
And I was terrified to pick up the phone.

289
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,360
One day you yelled at me over Teams and you're like, pick up the phone.

290
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,960
And I said no, because then they'll know they have me.

291
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:28,760
But they stopped calling me after I went through the panic and the 30, 45 minute call that

292
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,480
I went on with that man.

293
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,960
Mind you, it was at a new job that I had just started and they called and I was like, oh,

294
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:35,960
this won't take long.

295
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:41,600
45 minutes of standing in the hallway and then a 15 minute panic attack thinking that

296
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,200
I just sold my soul.

297
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,400
I worked late that day to make up that hour.

298
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,880
Both of us were at new jobs.

299
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:55,760
And I don't know how nobody walked by either of us going, who the fuck are these new people?

300
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,320
And does it sound like they're happily-

301
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,800
How does she think she's so special that she can just go out in the hallway and take a

302
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:03,800
personal call?

303
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:09,000
I'm over there like still on my computer filling out the survey.

304
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,360
Like I should have been doing other things.

305
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:13,800
That makes me laugh so hard.

306
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,600
Oh my God, our adventures.

307
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,200
Oh my goodness.

308
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,200
So yeah, that was a learning lesson for the both of us.

309
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:21,440
Yeah, don't do it.

310
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,920
But that also taught us that we can influence each other on anything.

311
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:25,920
Yeah, we're

312
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,520
Hey, do it.

313
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,320
Hey, do it.

314
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:31,320
You should do it.

315
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:32,320
And then let me know how it goes.

316
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,320
Yeah.

317
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,400
Let me know your experience.

318
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,400
And then immediate, don't do it.

319
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:37,400
Don't do it.

320
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:38,400
Don't do it.

321
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,400
Or you get me, who does it?

322
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,400
It goes, you know, it's not that bad.

323
00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,400
I always started that way.

324
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,400
That's how you know it's not good.

325
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,240
I always started with, Lord, it's not that bad.

326
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,680
Hear me out.

327
00:13:52,680 --> 00:13:53,680
These are the pros.

328
00:13:53,680 --> 00:13:55,200
Well, Priscilla, what about the cons?

329
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,920
I don't want to talk about the cons.

330
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,240
Try to sell yourself on it while you're trying to sell the other person on it.

331
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:06,440
Because if you can get yourself to come around, maybe the other person will too, even though

332
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,440
the both of y'all know that you fucked up.

333
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,040
And then we'll suffer together.

334
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:11,040
Yes, exactly.

335
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,040
Like true friendship.

336
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,040
Thank you.

337
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,040
That's all I needed.

338
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,440
All of this is to not even go over any products.

339
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,720
But yes, don't do it.

340
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,720
I have looked at other ones.

341
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:23,720
Same.

342
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,400
Costco has one.

343
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,920
I saw it.

344
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,320
I did tell Cole the next time we go, I'm buying it.

345
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,680
I had a little bit of post traumatic stress disorder.

346
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:39,160
So I just like looked at it and pointed at it to my husband and we kept walking.

347
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:43,080
And he's over here like patting your back like it's okay, honey.

348
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,440
He's like, do you really need to buy any more oils?

349
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,880
Mind you, I am a snob when it comes to my house.

350
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,760
So I use all of the Bath and Body Works wall flowers.

351
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,120
We need to talk about this.

352
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:56,120
Yes.

353
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,120
Did you watch the video?

354
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:58,120
Wait, what?

355
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,120
Oh, Lauren, we need to talk about this.

356
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,760
Wait, are you talking about the one that exploded in that chick's face?

357
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:04,760
No.

358
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:05,760
Oh, God.

359
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:06,760
Okay.

360
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:07,760
A different road.

361
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:08,760
Okay, hold on.

362
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:09,760
We're gonna pause.

363
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:10,760
I'm gonna take a sip of water and then we're gonna continue.

364
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:11,760
Hold on, hold on, hold on.

365
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:12,760
Okay, we're back.

366
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:13,760
Guess who's back?

367
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:14,760
Back again.

368
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:15,760
Shady's back.

369
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:16,760
Okay, I literally like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm

370
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,920
like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, Oh, Current

371
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:20,920
Flash back first.

372
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:21,920
Okay, Shady's back.

373
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:22,920
Tell a friend.

374
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,100
Okay, I literally don't always remember some words, and I was about to say, bring a friend.

375
00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:26,220
That works, right?

376
00:15:26,220 --> 00:15:29,580
Now you messed up.

377
00:15:29,580 --> 00:15:30,680
I had it.

378
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:31,680
I had a flow.

379
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:37,040
Never call me as a call a friend for karaoke because it just won't go well either way.

380
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,040
I won't know the lyrics and I'll sing really badly.

381
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,240
Well, I got a 50 50 chance.

382
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,080
Okay, awesome.

383
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:51,480
Oh man. Okay, okay. So listen, I didn't hear anything about a wallflower exploding in a

384
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:56,120
chick's face. Well it wasn't a wallflower. But continue. Oh shit. Okay. Um, other things

385
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:03,880
have exploded. We'll get to that. So I sent you a TikTok video that, and I felt like I

386
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,800
should have texted you saying you need to watch that. When did you send it? Like a couple

387
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:13,440
days ago. Oh girl. But we're really bad at like watching them on time. So I was like,

388
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,800
let's go get to it. And then the more I thought about it, I'm like, you really warned her.

389
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:26,960
Yeah. A heads up. Okay. Well, here's my heads up. Um, this video, this fucking video shows

390
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:33,960
how this one woman plugged her wallflower underneath her quartz countertop. Oh, well,

391
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,840
number one, you're an idiot. Yeah. No, it's not. Dude, it stained it. Yeah, I know. It

392
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:48,960
stained it. Yeah, because that's dumb. Like you can, okay. Oh God. Oh no. Like it is a

393
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:56,640
thing that puts out an oil. Common sense. Bro, but they're saying that it has like carcinogenics

394
00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:02,440
or whatever in it. That like it's- God bless you. I don't know how to say it right. Uh,

395
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:07,640
it's got the bad cancerous thing in it. So it's putting that shit into the air. And some

396
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:12,080
people were putting out like, yeah, um, I kind of figured it was fucking deadly when

397
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:20,600
all the plants near it kept dying. And I was like, what? Um, Priscilla, a heads up. I'm

398
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:25,400
sorry. I forgot. I have a toddler. I know I forgot. Okay. But I've only known for like

399
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:32,440
three days. That's three days. I just refilled all of my sense. Oh God. Oh God. Okay. Okay.

400
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:36,040
Okay. It's okay. Cause you know what? You know what? You're going to get for Christmas.

401
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:44,000
What? A scent diffuser. I was going to say the brand that we do not speak of. No, no,

402
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:49,840
that's Voldemort. We can't. I'd rather say Voldemort than- actually, I don't think I

403
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:54,680
can remember the name of it anymore. I think I blocked it out. Oh, the scent thing? Yeah.

404
00:17:54,680 --> 00:18:01,320
Oh, I know it. Okay. Did you know that they kept, um, after I talked about it on that

405
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:07,040
first episode of the podcast, I don't know, um, YouTube TV kept giving me ads. Oh yeah,

406
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:11,600
you told me. Dude, and those ads were weird ads. They were weird. They were like very

407
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:19,760
not on par and like off putting, I would say. Okay. Not off putting like, oh God, but like

408
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:27,360
very like forced. Forced? And how much did you pay that actress? I saw Damien, one of

409
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:33,240
the Shark Tank. No. Yeah, guys, he was on a commercial and I was like, this, this shit

410
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:39,000
has to be legit. Damien's on it. God, we're sold so easily. Yeah. That and TikTok, man.

411
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:44,040
I feel like I've gotten really good. Okay. That's probably a lie. I feel like I've gotten

412
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:52,600
okay at sussing out when like, even when people aren't calling it a sponsorship for something

413
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:57,960
on TikTok when they're like low key a sponsorship. Cause you know, you can hear in their tone

414
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:02,600
when they're too peppy about something. Yeah. And you're like, okay, like, do you really

415
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,200
believe in that? Or are you getting some free shit from them that you want to talk this

416
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,680
shit up? Yeah. Cause that's what we got to look out for now. Yeah. Cause I was trying

417
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:17,880
to look up this like, uh, woman's hormone pills thing. That sounds so bad already. Yeah.

418
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:25,200
I was, it's, hold on. I'll give you time. It's, it's from like, it's called like happy

419
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,920
hormone harmony or something like that. And then the brand itself is like happy mammoth

420
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,960
or yeah, I think it's like happy mammoth. And so I kept trying to look up reviews and

421
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:39,160
my favorite place is TikTok. Cause I feel like if someone has been wronged by something,

422
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,040
Oh, a thousand percent. They'll take it to TikTok immediately. Yeah. So I'm over here

423
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,160
like, let's look at the negative, let's look at the positive. Yeah. But it is kind of hard

424
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:53,700
to tell who was like, I don't know, like a mega fan for the brand versus like actually

425
00:19:53,700 --> 00:19:58,400
giving real updates. Hmm. I haven't heard anything about that, but now that we've discussed

426
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:04,040
it and my phone is near all of the people listening, it's going to pop up, are going

427
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:10,360
to not listeners, all the people listening on my phone. Hey, listen, that's my favorite

428
00:20:10,360 --> 00:20:16,320
form of a suggesting to call that I want something. Oh my God. Yes. You just say it in your phone.

429
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:21,640
Yeah, we do that too. Yeah. You just go up to your husband's phone and just really loud.

430
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:26,400
Just go Lego, Lego, Lego, and then see what happens. Bingo, bingo. Although to be fair,

431
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:33,200
his phone already probably pops up with Lego. So, yeah, cause he's, yeah. But then my Legos,

432
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:40,880
which speaking of my husband has a list that I provided him with the Lego. Smart lady.

433
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:46,640
I've been doing the memory method, which is probably shameful. I'm failing so hard because

434
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:53,680
every time we go to Target, I'm like, I will. There's, there's only a 50 shot chance that

435
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:59,560
Cole will hear this. So it's fine. I go up to the Legos I like in Target and I'll sigh

436
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:10,320
and I'll go, ah, focus, and then I'll walk away. Cole, if you are listening, pay attention

437
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:17,280
when she's in the Lego aisle. If she sighs and says it under her breath, hint, hint,

438
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:23,200
wink, wink, she would like the Lego set. He is too busy looking at the ones he wants.

439
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:28,480
Oh, you guys' Legos are down the same aisle? Yeah. Oh. Cause it's all the ground up Legos.

440
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:35,040
It's all the like harder ones. So he's into all the car ones. And then I'm over there

441
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:40,240
staring at that one lonely set of hocus pocus that's been left cause it's 200 fucking dollars.

442
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:45,840
And I'm like, someday my beauty, someday. Yeah. They have one on our Target too and

443
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:51,040
got super excited. But again, I don't have anywhere for it. Now. Oh my God. You've seen

444
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:58,640
my house now. Yes. Behind you is a table with a cricket machine sharing with the Lego set.

445
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:05,920
Yeah. The, the friend's Lego set and a 1% built Disney castle. You just need some shelves.

446
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,520
I need so many shelves. When you come over to my house and see my house, I have no more

447
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:16,000
room for Legos. I bet I'm going to be really impressed. Yes. I'm not even going to like

448
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:22,560
share the code. That cocky nod of yes. Listen, we spent a lot of time on that room. It looks good.

449
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,160
I, I can't wait. I really fucking can't wait. Oh my God. Now that you've seen my house, you see

450
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:35,840
the eclectic mess that I am and how Cole is trying to fit into it. It works. It's working so far.

451
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:40,320
It totally works. He is the bestest boyfriend. He just kind of fits himself into the mess. And

452
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:45,280
he's like, yeah, he's like, I live here now. And I'm like, yes, you do. 1000%. You gotta start

453
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:50,720
somewhere. We're working with it. Yeah. How been there done that? All right, dude. I'm going to pull up.

454
00:22:51,360 --> 00:22:55,680
Do it. I'm going to pull it up. How long have we been going? We haven't even talked about one item yet.

455
00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:01,680
21 minutes. Yeah. Y'all I got here for an, I was here an hour before we even started recording.

456
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:07,920
Listen, we need to catch up. Yeah. Like Lauren and I used to work together and then we both had to like

457
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:14,400
go separate ways to go find- Correction, you left me. Okay. No, bitch. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

458
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:22,160
She, she left a good, a good reason. I fucking told you the day I was ready to start looking. I said,

459
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:27,200
listen to me. I refuse to leave without knowing that you're leaving too. Yes. I know you're right.

460
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:32,320
Yeah. I was like, whether we leave together or we go to separate places, we're getting out of here

461
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:38,080
alive. Yeah. I, I kid, but she did. Yeah. She didn't do me dirty. Yeah. So I had a lot of other

462
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:48,800
priorities and just having a job was cool. God, the nightmare. Anyways, trauma bonding. PTSD.

463
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:56,080
It's fine. We talk about it daily at work now. Oh my gosh. Yes. So Lauren,

464
00:23:56,080 --> 00:24:05,280
what I've brought for you is the motherfucking Cobalt Mini 10.83 inch two drawer pink seal toolbox.

465
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:10,720
It doesn't have to be pink. This one just popped up, but they got other colors. Yeah. I was about to

466
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:16,000
talk some shit because that is pink, but I see all of the other colors because you know how I roll.

467
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:21,600
Yeah. I don't do pink. Hear me out. What if I got like a pink one and then put like black or

468
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:28,960
purple, like cow print stickers on it. I mean, yes. Just put the word cow in it and I'm in.

469
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:36,720
How about cow bitch? Literally anything cow period. I'm in. So yeah, I fucking saw this

470
00:24:37,360 --> 00:24:44,080
in person. No, no, but apparently it's at Lowe's. It's at Lowe's. And did you know that we have

471
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:49,840
Lowe's down the street? No, I didn't because I got lost in the way here. It sent you the worst way.

472
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:54,080
Go through. I'll tell you where to go through next time. Okay. I'm super glad you didn't just

473
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,000
start to say that on the podcast. I know. I probably would have believed it. Go through this.

474
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:03,120
Let me give you the exact location. Here's the address listeners. Let me tell you,

475
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:09,280
I underestimated how badly, like I don't think anyone's trying to figure out where I live,

476
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:15,600
but like I listen to a podcast, these two hilarious women who recap all the trash TV

477
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:20,240
that I love to listen to. Yes. I have a podcast like that at Lowe. You need to share mine with you.

478
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:27,360
You need to share yours with me. I do. But these two women live in Texas and I'm like, nice,

479
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:32,720
you know, shout out. And then they like kind of keep dropping some hints here and there,

480
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,720
but not on purpose. Just like they say something and then I'll be like, wait,

481
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:41,760
you don't even think about it. That's in my area. Yeah. Shut the fuck up. And then I get excited.

482
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,840
And the other day I was like, cool. I hope so badly when I just fucking run into them. That'd

483
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:51,200
be so cool. I don't think I'd ever talk to them, but I think that would be so cool. But would you

484
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,560
know who they were because of the podcast? The voices. I know voices.

485
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:02,160
Well, and they do video now too. Ah, okay. Yeah. They, they started a Patreon and they

486
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:06,000
started putting themselves on video, but they wear wigs and I love that for some reason.

487
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:12,160
Oh, that's fine. I fucking love that so much. So like they just, it's them chilling on two

488
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:19,840
sofa, two chairs and they're just chatting and they got wigs on. That's fun. And it's fabulous.

489
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:24,880
I'm going to bring a wig next time. Oh my God. We don't have a camera yet. That's valid.

490
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:32,080
They shouldn't have told you that. Well, we'll, we'll do camera at some point and we'll just

491
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:38,240
wig it up and it's eventually, eventually. Okay. So back to the toolbox. Yes. Motherfucking cobalt,

492
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:42,240
man. Okay. What are you going to do with the toolbox? Dude? I don't know. Oh, okay. Carry

493
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:48,720
me out. What have I had a plan? Well, okay. I just came up with one and go. Okay. Two plans. One,

494
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:56,880
I could go take it to work and use it for my pens and shit. I feel like I'd look really cool.

495
00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:02,240
Uh, yeah. Right. I feel like, I, cause I thought it was already really cool. Cause I'd like a little

496
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:09,600
like disco mushroom on my computer and then like five below. Um, I was like, this is a great way

497
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:16,560
to jazz up my space. No one has said anything. So I need to try harder. How teams you tomorrow. Hey,

498
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:25,440
that mushroom on your desk, that is like disco looks really cool. Me turning around. Hey,

499
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:33,440
so I'm coming tonight. I can see it all the way over here from across town.

500
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,400
Oh, I love that plan. But yeah. So think about it. Cobalt, you know, and bringing this over a

501
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:45,920
little mini toolbox and being like, Oh, what's this? You need a pen slides it out. Oh, I got a pen for

502
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:52,400
you. I'm for it. All right. Second option. Not as fun. I could use it to put my stickers in.

503
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:58,000
Uh, but equal good organized. I mean, yeah, but then no one gets to see it. Does the top open?

504
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:04,400
Oh, it does. Oh my God. It does. I didn't know that. You're welcome. All right. Okay. And this

505
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,640
bitch is using it for makeup. I mean, Hey, so be it to each your own. You don't want actually,

506
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:13,680
if that had a mirror at the top, that'd be actually kind of dope. Um, we don't need a mirror.

507
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:18,800
You put your own fricking mirror in there, man. I mean, yeah, but like for 20 bucks. Okay. For

508
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:25,920
20 bucks. Okay. For correction 1998. And you can just get a cheapo little mirror and stick it in

509
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,080
there. I love this. You can't tell me you don't have the stuff that you could go to hobby lobby,

510
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:36,080
get you a mirror, cut it to the size that you need and bingo, bango. That black one looks good. Yeah.

511
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:42,080
It does. So does a red one low key. I, you could pull off a red one. I don't want to buy one for

512
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:51,040
the baby. What color would you get? Um, probably red. I'll make you a decal for the top that has

513
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:59,520
his name on it. Okay. But see also that's a weapon for a two year old. Okay. What if we anchor it

514
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:06,800
down? What am I going to anchor to? I don't know. It's a mini toolbox. Okay. What if, Oh, how about

515
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:13,120
this? You buy it and then you wait until he doesn't use things as weapons or I'll just use it. Yeah,

516
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,680
that too. And then it'll be fine. Dude, I could eventually like hold his crayons and shit. Oh,

517
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:25,840
that's a good idea. Yeah. Cause right now, um, he is not allowed. Oh, I fucking bet. To have free

518
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:33,840
range of anything. Apparently he got a permanent marker somehow at daycare and then another kid

519
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:42,480
got it from him. So like, cool. And permanent marker did my kid. Okay. See, this is also the

520
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:47,920
greatness that Lauren brings to the podcast. She has a functional tiny human being living with her

521
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:54,560
that is on chaos mode right now. Absolutely. Like that. That is brave living, ma'am. Yeah. It's, um,

522
00:29:54,560 --> 00:30:00,160
terrifying. I'm not going to lie to you. Like I love it. Don't get me wrong, but he has zero fear

523
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:07,120
of literally anything and everything. That will only increase, oh, just as a fun story, uh, sidetrack.

524
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:13,920
Um, this is, this is my kid. Okay. So he, uh, we had a little toy, little bucket that we had,

525
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:19,680
actually it's the one that doesn't matter. So it's a little toy bucket. He dumped the toy bucket out,

526
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:25,920
put it on his head, screamed and started running. Fuck. Mind you, the bucket is big enough that it

527
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:31,680
comes down past his shoulders. So he can't see, right? A tub. We're talking about like a tub.

528
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:40,320
A tub. Yes. Like a, yeah. Yeah. Run straight into the wall. Shut up. I almost peed my pants laughing

529
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:47,840
because I like he, I, I asked, Hey, you okay? Yeah. And he got up and kept running. Please tell me

530
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:53,120
that you still, I remember you used to have a camera for your pets before you got pregnant.

531
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:59,760
Yeah. We didn't have it on. Son of a bitch. I know. You could have put that in America's Funniest Home

532
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:05,520
Videos and won some money with that. A thousand percent. Like Jeff came out of our room and was

533
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:10,240
like, what was that noise? I was like, I couldn't even get out. I was still laughing, like literally

534
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,080
tears streaming down my face. I was on the phone with my mom and my grandma and they were like,

535
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:21,120
what just happened? And I was like, I couldn't even, literally could not get it out. Oh my God.

536
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:27,120
Yeah. So that's my kid. That is fucking amazing. Yeah. So would you say he got that from you or

537
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:36,960
your husband? Maybe both. It's probably a combination of the both of us. I just like the tiny, yeah.

538
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:43,680
Keeps going. Every time. It is hilarious. So funny. I have to see if I can record him doing it. Oh

539
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:49,680
my God. I love that. I fucking love that. I love that for you. Yeah, me too. It's awesome. I love

540
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:57,040
being a mom. Oh, OK. Yeah. So Cobalt, Minnie, let's fucking do it. Let's let's get you one. I vote

541
00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:02,720
yes. Let's get me one. I'm about to go to Lowe's this weekend. Jeff doesn't know it. Cole doesn't

542
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:08,720
know it, but we're about to go to. There's one in the area. I fucking know it. Just where they are.

543
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:16,880
All right. I'm pulling up your next one. OK. Bitch. I know you got this from TikTok because we

544
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:21,440
fucking conversed about this shit. TikTok made me do it. Thousand percent TikTok made me do it.

545
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:33,280
OK, so hear me out. Yeah. Who's doing it? I did. It's not just me. No, it's not a thousand percent.

546
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:40,000
No. OK, so it seems crazy expensive. I OK. I thought the same thing. I saw it on TikTok

547
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:45,120
and I was like, no way. Yeah. And then I watched a couple of videos on TikTok, continued watching,

548
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:51,280
read a million bajillion reviews. OK, OK. OK, I'm going to I'm going to. Yeah, we're going to.

549
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:57,200
We're going to sit on this. OK. Send it to my husband. Prime day deal. Steal. Don't remember

550
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:04,400
how much I paid. OK. So definitely bought it like day one of using it. Fucking game changer.

551
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:11,760
Shut up. Really? It cleans my floors so well. And keep in mind, I have a child. Yeah, I have

552
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:19,280
multiple animals, one of which is a Great Dane. So if you can clean the floor to that extent

553
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:26,640
with a dog whose paws are essentially an excavator, I almost said esovator.

554
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:34,560
I have a child. Talked like a toddler. An excavator bucket and brings the amount of mud into my house.

555
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:39,360
Yeah. Just do a quick vacuum before because I don't want to get it all gobbled up. Yeah.

556
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:48,160
And run this all across my floors. The amount of dirt and gross grime and nastiness that it brings

557
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:57,840
up is amazing. Yeah. And we have tile in part of our house and then we have laminate. Yeah, that's

558
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:03,280
right. When you got your floors done. OK, we probably haven't said actually what it is.

559
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:12,960
Shit. Oh, my God, we have not. Fuck it. No, I'm kidding. OK, so Lauren, the dream. Yes. H12 Pro

560
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:21,360
wet dry vacuum cleaner, smart floor cleaner, cordless vacuum and mop for hard floors, one step edge

561
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,760
to edge cleaning with hot air, dry and black. And I was over here giving you shit on how long

562
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:33,760
yours the name was. Yeah. See, Amazon really takes it on. It's Amazon. It is Amazon. OK, hot

563
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:39,040
air drying black. OK, ignore the black part. That's the color of it. But hot air drying.

564
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:44,880
What does that mean? That is an excellent question. Do we not know? No. OK, that's why.

565
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:52,080
Do we think that maybe that OK, so like essentially this thing is a mop vacuum cleaner.

566
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:57,120
Hot air. Oh, it has a clean like it cleans itself. Maybe that's what it's talking about.

567
00:34:57,120 --> 00:35:03,840
That could be it. Self cleaning. Yeah, hot air drying. Yeah. OK, OK, OK. Oh, it has a stand shit.

568
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:11,360
OK. Yeah, it's so fancy. So I remember, I remember there's a point on TikTok where every fucking other

569
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:19,840
video that came up was this mop, but it was like a house party. Oh, yeah, I know exactly what you're

570
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:24,880
talking about. Yeah, it's what you do in your 30s at a party. And we sent it to each other.

571
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:30,400
You probably sent it to me. Yeah. Or vice versa. I don't know. But you're like, I have this.

572
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:37,440
Buy it. And they're like sucking up everything. Now, granted, I am a big baby and I don't want to

573
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:42,960
just toss Cheetos and stuff in there because I don't want to ruin it because it was kind of pricey.

574
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:49,520
But they did it to there, so I know it can do it. I'll let others tell me it can do it. Exactly.

575
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:54,800
I feel that. I feel like every time there's something really nice and you're like, I know this is going to ruin it.

576
00:35:54,800 --> 00:36:01,520
They can do it. And then it ruins it. You're just like, why did I? Every fiber of my being said, don't do that.

577
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:09,440
Yeah. So, yeah, I feel you on that one. OK, so let's talk about the price. The original price, Lauren.

578
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:17,520
Yeah. Five hundred and sixty frickin dollars. Yeah. Now it's gone down to three hundred.

579
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:22,320
Yeah, it's forty six percent off. It is a limited time deal. Honey is like, buy, buy, buy.

580
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,480
Amazon, where's my check? Can I get paid now?

581
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:36,800
Frickin Honey is giving us tips right now being like, the price trend over time.

582
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:42,400
This is the lowest price we've seen in over a month. Like, cool. But why?

583
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:49,120
Um, what? Oh, you don't know. OK, I really wish you could get paid for this.

584
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:57,760
So honey is like an app. OK, I say I have to say I because I've only ever really used it on Chrome,

585
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:05,200
but it is an app that you can install in Chrome where it collects the data of what you're like

586
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:10,400
looking at to shop for. OK. And it'll tell you if there's a coupon out there for it

587
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,200
or if like that's the lowest price. Like right now, it's telling us, hey, just so you know,

588
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,680
this is the lowest price it's been in like over a month. But if it's been lower before,

589
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:26,800
it'll tell you in case you want to like hold and wait. Yeah. So people, I remember listening to

590
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:34,080
podcasts like years ago. I feel like it's been a long time, but I remember hearing them like talk

591
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:40,000
about honey to get like sponsorship money. I wish we were there, man. I'll get there someday.

592
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:44,960
Someday because I fucking use it. Yeah. Please pay me. Yeah, seriously. And Amazon,

593
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:51,840
um, I spent a small fortune on you, so please pay me. So please, please. Money, please.

594
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:58,240
Do languages, does that help? Do we know any others? I don't. I don't think so. I don't.

595
00:37:58,240 --> 00:38:06,400
I'm learning Portuguese. It's slow. I barely know English. I like this. I like it. Can I

596
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:11,360
convince Cole to get it? I don't know. It depends. If it's a Costco day and maybe I don't get anything,

597
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:17,760
maybe I can convince him. You can play with mine at my house. Let me tell you, it made the floor

598
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:23,840
so clean at my house that I was walking around with socks and I almost fell. Seriously? Yeah.

599
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:30,240
Which also probably says how dirty my floor is. No, dude, we all need that grip. We have dogs.

600
00:38:30,240 --> 00:38:38,880
We need that grip. It was right after rain. So, but yeah, it's a game changer. I'm in love,

601
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:45,040
but also I was weary because all the TikTok shit. So like you said, you looked at all the reviews

602
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:52,000
and all that stuff, right? I kept seeing TikToks come up of like influencers who were supposed to

603
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:58,400
influence it. And I guess they weren't getting paid or something. So they were like, de-influencing

604
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:02,320
it. They're like, this shit don't work and blah, blah, blah. And I was like, what is happening? I

605
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:07,040
don't know what to believe. Oh, so they were just salty. Oh, they were super salty. But at the same

606
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:12,960
time, I was like, is there backing to their claim or is this just being salty? Like, I don't know.

607
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:20,800
Well, I can tell you, we have one. There we go. It works. It's amazing. I only almost died one time

608
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:28,800
on a super clean floor. After that, I wore my slippers. Dude, I used to almost die quarterly

609
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:37,600
because my mother quarterly, I don't know why it was like, she would shine or wax or whatever it

610
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:47,440
was. She would polish the only wooden step on the fucking stairs. Yep. Yep. Dead. Dead. Straight to

611
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:54,160
jail. Do you know that I think there was one time where I stepped on it, slid and it knocked the

612
00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:59,440
wind out of me. So left your body. Yeah, that's happened to me, I think five times my entire life,

613
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:06,560
too many times. But like, I'm pretty sure one of those times was from that. And I remember she's

614
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:12,800
like, Oh, yeah, just polished it. I'm like, what? Why is there not caution tape? Literally, there

615
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:20,320
should be caution tape. I after that day, Lauren, I up until they moved out of that house, I never

616
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:24,560
Did you skip that step? I fucking skipped that step. I would have too, especially if you got the wind

617
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:31,360
knocked out of you. And let me tell you, like, the floor after it was also wood. But I was more

618
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:36,800
willing to test that floor than that step. Because that step was the thing that she fucking polished.

619
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,600
And I don't think she ever polished those wood floors. So like, she would like do some kind of

620
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:46,800
like wood cleaning thing on it. But like, it wasn't the same. Yeah, it wasn't the shit that

621
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:51,600
she was putting on the freaking handrails. Yeah. So the handrails, I mean, it's not like I'm wearing

622
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:56,480
gloves or anything with the handrails. And that step would be polished to hell. And I'm over here

623
00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:03,040
fighting for my life. I mean, good on your mom for good housekeeping. But also, can we stay out of

624
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:09,840
the hospital? Yeah, like, Hi, do I have family members that can die and live upstairs? Oh, let's

625
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:16,080
not do that. Well, this woman just like never really used the stairs. So it didn't affect her.

626
00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:23,280
Because like the game room was upstairs. It was like a meh game room where just mostly my dad

627
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:28,640
use it. That was really it. And then my room and my sister's room. Okay. So like she didn't really

628
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,800
care to go upstairs. She didn't have anything up there. So she was like, I'll clean it. And then

629
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:37,440
walk some pretty. I don't use it. I make it look pretty. She's like, fuck you guys. I'm trying to

630
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:44,320
keep it clean. Oh, I don't blame her. Oh, all right. I'm gonna call that a win. Good job. I like this.

631
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:50,160
You've influenced me to probably get it. It is expensive. I will say it was definitely a splurge.

632
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:58,960
It was not like a let's do it. Let's see. Customers say customers like the ease. Oh, this is the AI

633
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:04,640
generated thing. Customers like the ease of cleaning with the vacuum cleaner. They say it does a really

634
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:10,560
good job cleaning and removes a good amount of dirt and debris from the floors. They also appreciate

635
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:15,520
the auto drying feature and the built in hot air drying feature that quickly dries the floors.

636
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:21,280
Customers are impressed with the quality of the product and say it works well. They like the

637
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:28,720
suction and the ease to use. However, some customers dislike the smell and differ on battery life and

638
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:36,720
value. That was boring and accurate. Okay. It's dirty water. Do you think those are people who

639
00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:45,680
aren't draining the water out? Okay. Story time. Oh, God. My husband, I love him dearly. He cleaned

640
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:52,080
the floors and he made a whoopsie and he forgot to dump the tank. Oh, no. The man had a million

641
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:58,800
things on his mind. Yeah. You can't fault him. Okay. And then went back the next time to use it

642
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:07,600
and it just smelled like straight up sewage. No. Oh, yeah. Because it had sat for a while. Oh, no.

643
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:16,480
So then he had to like super duper clean out the tank. Well, made a whoopsie. We all learn our

644
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:22,960
lessons somehow, right? I mean, we're not perfect. No, I have the memory of a goldfish. You took that

645
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:31,760
from me. Because I said that. I squirrel constantly. Does that make it better? I am like a squirrel. Our

646
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:37,440
dog sees a squirrel. I'm like, oh, squirrel. I think we both have goldfish brains. Yeah. And we

647
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:42,560
both squirrel so fucking bad. It's so bad. It's incredible. We were really good at our jobs.

648
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:51,760
I think because I can multitask as well as I can because I can squirrel. Does that make sense? Okay.

649
00:43:51,760 --> 00:44:01,840
I think for you that works. And for me, it was a miracle. Because I have learned. I think I lied to

650
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:07,680
myself for years and I told myself I could multitask. I don't think I can. Oh, I'm learning that.

651
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:14,160
Because I wasn't writing things down the other day and I was like all over the place. And

652
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:20,800
yeah, and my coworker was like, are you okay? You seem frazzled. And I was like, I just have so many

653
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:27,120
things and also don't. And I can't remember the last thing I was doing, but I think I have five

654
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:32,960
things that I have to do. And that's when I was like, oh, go back to writing things down. Oh, God.

655
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:39,200
And that's also when I was like, you can't multitask. Stop lying to yourself. It has to be written down.

656
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:47,680
If it's not on a piece of paper, it's gone. It's gone. To do lists. Oh, to do lists. Oh, a thousand percent to do lists. Those are my favorite.

657
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:52,400
I'm teaching Cole. And it's so satisfying to check it off or highlight something. That was the best.

658
00:44:53,280 --> 00:45:00,080
Are we weird? We're fucking weird. Oh, but you know what? It's paying off. Because with Cole's new job,

659
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:17,600
it's all very task oriented and keeping up with people. And he's learning that he has to work a lot more with his laptop and just double checking stuff.

660
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:32,320
It's very, I don't know, what would we call that? Like admin-y? Okay, so admin and what's the word? Oh, my goodness. I forgot the word. I had it. Shoot. I lost it.

661
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:46,480
Networking? Yes. Yes. There you go. So admin slash networking, right? Yeah. And today he was showing me what he was having trouble with.

662
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:53,520
And I was like, oh, I got you. You just do this, this and this. Mind you, very different field. Not the same field even remotely.

663
00:45:54,160 --> 00:46:05,760
But I have mastered the sense of using computers to help me just organize myself immensely. It's insane to me.

664
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:12,560
That I just, I showed him two things. He's like, I actually think that's going to help me with this task that I had no idea how to complete.

665
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:18,320
And he goes, and I think I'm going to have to start organizing myself for now on because I'm going to have a lot of things to do.

666
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:29,520
I'm like, oh, my sweet, sweet man. Let me show you my way. Yes. Let me show you all the to-do lists I've ever done in my life and why I stay semi organized.

667
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:37,840
Literally game changer. Working on projects with you with your freaking checklist. I love that shit. I use that shit even after you left.

668
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:47,360
And then I'd be like, did you check the checklist? Why is nobody using the checklist? Lauren, I made a full checklist just for this podcast.

669
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:57,520
Oh, wow. I meant to show that to you. I'll show it to you later. It's literally a step by step process on what gets done to get it done.

670
00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:05,440
Okay. Whatever you got to do to make it work. Yeah. You're a pro. Thank you. You should just do checklists for people.

671
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:15,200
I fucking wish, man. You could get paid so much money. Hey, who wants to pay me because I'll fucking do it. I mean it. I love it. It is so satisfying.

672
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:21,360
Yes. So I'll highlight everything. Oh, my God. Yes. Although that's also my flaw.

673
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:28,320
Like, you know, in school, when they'd be like, highlight the important things. Everything. The entire page. The entire textbook.

674
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:34,080
And be like, what's not important? I'm confused. Why would you put something that's not important in here? I don't understand.

675
00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:41,120
And they'd be like, you can't understand bullet points. I'm like, it's not in bullet points. It's in a paragraph. What's important? Tell me now.

676
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:53,440
Like, I couldn't do it. History was just so bad. It was so bad. Off topic. Anyways, I'll move on to my next thing.

677
00:47:53,440 --> 00:48:02,880
Back to what we came here for. Sorry. Oh, I saw this. Yeah. Okay. We're going to be so bad on this podcast together.

678
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:16,560
It's fine. I'll make a deal with you. What if? What if? If one of us then like just kind of breaks down and gets something,

679
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:24,080
we let that one person get it so that they can review it and then influences the other. Yes.

680
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:31,440
We don't both ever pull the trigger at the same time. I 1000% am in. Fuck yeah. Okay, deal.

681
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:42,080
Babe, I promise I'm not going to be bad. I'm not. High five. Yeah, that was a good high five.

682
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:48,400
You got to look at the elbow. You got to match them up. No, seriously. That's why you do a good high five.

683
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:53,120
You got to look at the other person's elbow. Seriously? Yes. I wasn't looking at the elbow.

684
00:48:53,120 --> 00:49:02,400
It's because you were looking. Wow. Glass shattering mind blowing moment that I didn't fucking know about.

685
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:07,760
I'm here for the fun facts. So what if it's a cross high five because that was like same arm high five.

686
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:16,480
Look at the elbow. Oh, but you came in high, but I was looking at your elbow. That was too low. Shit.

687
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:24,240
You are overthinking. Okay, but then that time I looked at your hand and I was able to align.

688
00:49:24,240 --> 00:49:29,600
Is it different when it's crossed? I think so. Also, my hands are massive compared to yours.

689
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:37,040
That was palm on palm. Well, we just have adorable little tiny hands. I've got hobbit hands.

690
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:45,920
No, they're adorable and I have phalanges. Phalanges. Yeah. I'm gonna name my daughter one day phalange.

691
00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:53,520
Please don't. Well, color Angie for sure. Oh, all right.

692
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:58,000
I'm kidding. That's not the name. Don't worry, Cole. I pick names anyway.

693
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:09,440
Okay, so what I'm showing Lauren is called the remarkable two. This shit is a tablet,

694
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:16,400
but like not a normal tablet. It's a black and white paper, quote unquote paper tablet.

695
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:21,360
And it's supposed to replace like notebooks and printouts. And, you know, like you it's

696
00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:27,440
supposed to prevent you from feeling like you need to buy an iPad as mine sits next to me.

697
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:37,360
Do as I say, not as I do. Listen, I didn't know about this. But yeah, it's supposed to

698
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:44,720
replace your iPad and like you just you write endlessly on it. Yeah. And like it doesn't have

699
00:50:44,720 --> 00:50:51,840
any type of social media on it. I mean, that's a pretty big win. That in itself is a win to kind of

700
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:59,760
just separate yourselves. Yeah. Sometimes we just were too much with all of the social media.

701
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:05,680
And I know I get distracted. Oh, yeah, I can't take it anymore. I mean, like, there's the occasional

702
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:13,840
like like I like TikTok on my downtime. So lunch after I'm done eating. So I finish eating. I'll

703
00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:18,880
sit there, go through a couple of reels, mostly so I can like find the funny ones to send to you and

704
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:26,640
to call. Yes. And then that's that's I'm good with that. And then later when I get home and I find

705
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:31,200
some more downtime and I'm just like, OK, let's kill a little bit of time. And it's really just

706
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:35,920
to find the funny ones. Yeah. Or the dramatic ones. Yeah, that's it. That's it. And if there's like a

707
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:40,480
lull and they they are not good and they're not hitting. Oh, you got to get off. Yeah, I quit.

708
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:47,120
Yeah. Got to let the algorithm remind itself like who's working for who here. Yeah. Like, yeah,

709
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:56,160
no, it's it's I agree. Like the whole social media aspect on it. Not well, for it to not be there is

710
00:51:56,160 --> 00:52:03,680
really good. No email. No, like, oh, God, I can't see that either. Like it's notifications in general.

711
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:08,720
Yeah. Like my iPad is just filled with so many notifications. I'm like, I don't want any of this.

712
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:13,040
Yeah, I've gotten to the point that I'm just like when it asks, do you want notifications of some

713
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:18,880
immediate? Yeah, no. And I will go on there when I want to go on there. Exactly. OK. And so on that

714
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:27,360
note, that is why I switched back to a Fitbit. Oh, yeah, look, I don't have my Apple Watch anymore.

715
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:33,120
Like I have it somewhere in my house. But I switched back to a Fitbit. Who are you?

716
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:39,760
I have a person who got really tired of being notified of everything. I mean, honestly, low key,

717
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:45,520
even like the Apple fitness notifications. Yeah. They shame you. I turn all that stuff off. They

718
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:50,080
shame you so I'm literally just like, oh, what's the weather? Because I'm an 80 year old man.

719
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:58,160
And what's the time? What's the moon look like? Well, couldn't tell that by looking out the window.

720
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:07,600
So good to know. Yeah. Yeah. Still rocking Apple. So this shit, I freaking love the idea of this

721
00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:15,680
remarkable to like paper tablet. Also, because I got to witness it in action. You did? Uh huh. OK,

722
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:22,960
what's the verdict? Well, so the guy at work who has it brings into every meeting and uses it.

723
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:28,080
And the only thing that perplexed me, there was just one thing because I'm watching him use it.

724
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:34,880
The pen, the stylus thing gets to be used just like the Apple one where like actually more intuitive

725
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:40,400
than the Apple one because the tip will write and then if you flip it over, it will pretend to like

726
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:44,640
erase. Whoa. So I thought that was cool. It's good. Like just like a normal pencil. Awesome.

727
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:51,040
Does it have like an enlarged version of it? Oh, you're fine. Oh, no, that just zooms in the screen.

728
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:57,680
Uh, wait, an enlarged version of what? The pen. OK, the pen. It's like,

729
00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:03,520
OK, you kind of see it, right? Yeah. And it's got like a clippy thing and everything.

730
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:09,520
Mm hmm. So it writes really well. It looks like it writes really well. I think there's a teeny

731
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:17,040
bit of a lag. OK, which I know to be expected. It's to be expected, but also might drive me crazy.

732
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:22,240
Yeah. So that part has kind of kept me away a little bit, but maybe they're working on that.

733
00:54:22,240 --> 00:54:28,080
Who knows? Is it a newer product, though, too? Because I want to say this is the remarkable,

734
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:34,800
too. Is this not only its own bladda bladda bladda bladda. I'm stuck in a loop. The second version

735
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:41,360
of. Yeah, I believe there's a one. OK, so yeah, they're like working out the kinks and whatnot.

736
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:48,080
Wow, they even made a like little keyboard for it. Oh, there's a good. Yeah, I can see where like

737
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:53,520
a lag when you're writing. That would drive me crazy. Yeah, but they're they seem really good

738
00:54:53,520 --> 00:55:01,040
about like their product in general, like the guy at work, he has this I'm showing Lauren,

739
00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:07,280
and it's like a little glass case of the marker tip. So I guess they know that their marker tips

740
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:12,480
don't last forever. But they're like, hey, we'll literally send you a bunch of them. Here you go.

741
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:18,240
That's like, oh, that's nice of you. Thank you. But like. So he seems to really love it, right?

742
00:55:18,240 --> 00:55:22,000
He downloads like all of his PDFs on it to mark him up during our meetings. I'm like,

743
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:28,240
very nice, very nice. Not the kinds that you and I use more like just normal. OK, typed out PDFs.

744
00:55:28,240 --> 00:55:34,640
But still have the capability to do the stuff that we look at. I have no idea. I would imagine so

745
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:38,960
because it's just an image, technically. That's true. It's just, you know, uploading an image

746
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:43,920
onto it and then letting you write on it. How much storage does it have? I'm here for the questions.

747
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:50,720
That's a really good question. I actually don't know because I would be concerned that the PDFs

748
00:55:50,720 --> 00:55:57,360
that we are viewing would be way too large, way too large. Like, look at this. It looks like they

749
00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:04,000
have like the capability of having like a lot of files on it. Oh, it connects to OneDrive and

750
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:12,480
Google Drive and Dropbox. So cloud, that's important to know. OK. Oh, it's a freaking

751
00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:21,920
subscription base. Red flag, red flag. I'm waving the red flag. Why do we not have a red flag?

752
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:29,520
Because we're not on video yet. We should go where we're meant for video. Taking notes. Note to self.

753
00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:36,000
Note to self. But yeah, like, oh, two weeks of battery life. That's pretty damn good. That's a

754
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:41,600
lie. It probably is. That's like if you never use it. It'll last on two weeks if you don't

755
00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:50,640
know if you don't turn me on. I used it once and wrote Friday meeting. Shut off. Done. Left the office.

756
00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:58,800
But yeah, like the dude seems to really like it, right? The funny thing to me is he goes,

757
00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:04,560
yeah, I read it in three colors. I thought it was black and white. He goes, it is. Wait. Yes. Yep.

758
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:13,760
Yep. Yeah. Did he mean gray scale? So technically, I think if you let's say you save it.

759
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:19,280
Let's say you pick a certain gray tone to highlight with. Uh huh. And then you save it.

760
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:23,120
It's going to pop up in color when you open it back up on your computer.

761
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:31,440
OK. Which is interesting. But also not very useful for the actual product itself. But yes,

762
00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:36,160
they are gray tones on the product. But he was like pointing to them and he goes, this one's red.

763
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:43,680
This one's blue. Oh, Benji. And this one's like, I don't know, probably yellow for highlight or

764
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:50,320
something like that. Hmm. It intrigues me to see what that looks like. I feel like it would throw

765
00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:55,920
me off if I'm being completely honest with you. I think it would throw me off too, because I mean,

766
00:57:55,920 --> 00:58:00,640
I'd just be like, oh, nice. Lots of gray. Like I would just because when I'm taking notes,

767
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:07,920
I and say like I'm walking and taking notes, I like have because I'm an 80 year old man,

768
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:15,280
have like a pocket in my flannel with pens and highlighters. And if something is like

769
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:21,200
super important, I'll highlight it or circle it in another color. But I feel like it I would get

770
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:26,160
lost in my notes, like say you're walking and you're taking notes as you're walking.

771
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:30,480
And then somebody was like, oh, hey, what was this that I said? It's all gray. I don't know.

772
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:34,880
Oh, my God. I see like a dog. I don't know.

773
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:48,640
The pure panic, your fucking panic. Absolutely. Oh, man. Also, should I get you a pocket protector

774
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:53,280
for like your birthday? I mean, if you want to kind of want to.

775
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:57,360
CalPrint. Oh, yes. Yes. All things Cal.

776
00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:06,320
But yeah, like I like the idea. I think it's a good concept. Yeah, I feel like they can work out some

777
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:15,760
bugs. I agree because, okay, so it's like only $279. Let me say only. It's $279. But also like,

778
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:21,520
if I want to pay $279, I also want it to be lag free. I'll be honest. Yeah, same. And I mean,

779
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,600
okay, so this is terrible. I haven't bought an iPad in so long. But like, what does an iPad even

780
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:32,800
run just for like. Girl, I will look that up. Excuse the clickyness of my keyboard, but maybe

781
00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:42,640
some of you will like it. iPad Pro 2024 or so. I don't know. What? 700 bucks maybe. Oh, God, no,

782
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:47,360
it has to be more than that. Oh, really? Yeah. I don't know how much I think it's worth anymore.

783
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:52,880
I don't know why. But I know what it's not nowadays where I'm like, nah, that's gonna be too low.

784
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:56,560
I can't even tell you what diapers cost. I just have to buy them. So I buy them.

785
00:59:56,560 --> 01:00:03,920
Did we forget that the Apple website never gets to the point and just let you and let's endlessly

786
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:10,720
scroll because I forgot. Oh, okay. Okay. So super basic, super duper basic can be $799.

787
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:13,680
I was so close. You really were. I'm really impressed with you.

788
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:20,160
I'm proud of myself. That's the 11 inch, 11 inch display for who knows what terrible storage.

789
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:31,040
And then 12.9 inch display for probably terrible storage. Yeah, is a thousand dollars and 99 or

790
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:40,240
99. No, 1099. 1100 bucks. Yeah, 1100 bucks. And that's so real quick. Let's let's play a game.

791
01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:46,320
Let's play that if I choose an 11 inch and the most basic, well, I guess they're both basic colors.

792
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:58,080
Let's say black. Okay. For two terabytes, $1900. That was, that was a what the 700, 800 one

793
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:05,920
for the $800 one went up. No, fair enough. Two terabytes is a lot. That's a lot. But let's say we

794
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:17,920
went mid, which is what 512 nowadays. Yeah. 512 is then back to $1100 for 128 gigs, which gets us

795
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:30,320
nowhere. Yeah. I think my phone has that. Yeah. $800. So you can not double that up to 256. And

796
01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:37,360
I mean, 256 is not the worst. No. And they only bump it up by like $100.

797
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:46,640
But still, we need to know what the storage is on that other guy. But if everything goes to the cloud.

798
01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:53,920
Yeah, you weigh it out. And like, obviously, I don't have that money to drop on

799
01:01:53,920 --> 01:02:08,960
iPad Pro. But I don't want to just sprinkle $279 for a potential laggy dog view.

800
01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:13,600
This is now I can't think. Can we call it dog vision?

801
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:21,680
I got dog vision now. Yeah. Look at this. Call me alpha.

802
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:30,560
But yeah, dude, did you know that you could get your iPad engraved?

803
01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:39,680
That just seems like a bad idea. What would you engrave it with? Your name?

804
01:02:39,680 --> 01:02:49,840
Please, please return to. Oh, my God. But yeah, like, I agree. I agree. Here's the thing.

805
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:59,920
We could get a remarkable two for $279. I could get Hocus Pocus for the same amount.

806
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:06,800
Or you could just use a patent paper for $5 and a high five.

807
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:11,120
And let me tell you that high five, I'll be looking at that elbow. Yes, you will.

808
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:16,480
With all of your pens and your highlighters and your pocket protector.

809
01:03:18,080 --> 01:03:23,520
All right, y'all. Thanks for joining us today. That's going to have to be the end of part one.

810
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:28,880
Sorry, that's not like a super clean transition. We just didn't really realize till the end that

811
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:36,800
this needed to be chopped up. So, you know, buckle up and get ready for part two next week and join

812
01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:44,320
us to finish off our fun list of things that we found and to hear more stories that are super

813
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:49,760
random and eclectic and just uncalled for. Because that's what happens when you get Lauren and I

814
01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:59,440
together. So hope you all enjoyed. Also, don't forget to follow us on Instagram at justtakemymoneypodcast
