1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,880
So, I'm just gonna cut right to it.

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,960
I'm starting another hobby.

3
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:05,960
That's right.

4
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,360
A lot of people have said, why do you have so many hobbies, man?

5
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:10,360
Just stick to one.

6
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:12,280
Well, I'm gonna tell you why.

7
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:16,920
I just always want to do something with my life, whether it's writing a book or doing

8
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,360
all kinds of stuff.

9
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,160
I'm actually looking forward to this one because it's something I've wanted to do for a long

10
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,600
time but I never had someone to do it with.

11
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,440
And my girlfriend agreed to do it with me.

12
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:27,440
We're gonna go kayaking.

13
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,200
I actually, I got one recently.

14
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:30,480
I didn't get the expensive one, okay?

15
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:32,880
I know a lot of people are thinking, kayaks are like $500.

16
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,640
We got one for $100.

17
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:36,880
So it's not used either.

18
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,360
It was just on clearance.

19
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,560
Which I guess because of the color, to be honest.

20
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,320
Because it's kind of an ugly color.

21
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:44,320
It's like orange and black.

22
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:45,320
I don't know.

23
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:46,320
It looks weird.

24
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,640
But I'm excited to do it.

25
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:53,320
I'm even more excited to tell you guys that the second episode of Morbid Universe is out

26
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:54,320
now.

27
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,920
So if you guys aren't subscribed to that, go subscribe to it.

28
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,640
Morbid Universe episode 2, it's about psychopathy.

29
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:00,640
Check it out.

30
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:01,960
I worked a lot on it.

31
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:10,440
I also want to thank Sage and Nick for being on as well and giving their input.

32
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,840
Anyway.

33
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:28,760
So, why exactly have I always wanted to do kayaking?

34
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,600
To be honest, I've always wanted to do a lot of things.

35
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,880
I wanted to do zip lining, rock climbing, hiking, which I've done before.

36
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:35,880
That one's pretty fun.

37
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,400
Although, recently, because of some weather, some really bad weather, if you guys remember,

38
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:45,080
in the state of California, in the beginning of the year, we had an ancient dry lake come

39
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,080
back.

40
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,960
So, that took a huge toll on the valley.

41
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:54,200
And a lot of roads that I had to drive up or that I would have been able to drive up

42
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:55,200
are now destroyed.

43
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,040
We've got to wait for them to be fixed.

44
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,320
So it's going to be a while before I can do that.

45
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:03,800
The best part is, there was this place that I mentioned, right?

46
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,480
Several episodes ago, I mentioned a spot in the woods, in the mountains specifically,

47
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:08,900
near where I live.

48
00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:11,200
It's about an hour drive straight up.

49
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:16,080
And it's a place where I had a very unique experience with the woods.

50
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,040
I mentioned it as a magical place.

51
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,120
That's as best as I can describe it.

52
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:23,840
A magical place.

53
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,560
The problem is, I found recently, I found it on the map, good for me, but I found that

54
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,440
the road to it was also destroyed in the flood.

55
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,760
And it was very far up there.

56
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,480
So it's going to be a while before I can go see it again.

57
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,400
Which is kind of sad, really.

58
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:38,800
I was looking forward to it.

59
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,240
As soon as I found it, I was so excited.

60
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,640
In fact, I even checked on Google Maps, is there any other way to go up there?

61
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:46,640
Everything is gone.

62
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:50,920
So it's going to be at least a year before I can go back up there.

63
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:53,360
And at the very least, I have it saved on my Google Maps.

64
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,040
I didn't know you could do that, by the way.

65
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,960
You could save locations on Google Maps.

66
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,960
One thing I will not do in this location, I'm not going to kayak.

67
00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:02,520
The kayak that we have is not for rapid water.

68
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,920
It's for, it's for ponds, you know, it's just for lakes.

69
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:07,680
Not too crazy.

70
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:13,040
But I also have to follow a bunch of regulations, a bunch of protocol, California guidelines.

71
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:14,400
I don't have to buy a permit for it.

72
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:15,560
I'm surprised about that.

73
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,720
Unless I put a motor on it, in which case it's not a kayak anymore.

74
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:19,720
It's just a speedboat.

75
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,720
Um, that's something, I don't know.

76
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,040
It's not a speedboat.

77
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:24,980
I'm learning the terminology, okay?

78
00:03:24,980 --> 00:03:26,640
But I've always wanted to be on the water.

79
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:29,320
I've always had a fascination with boats.

80
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:34,520
Not even just like, kayaking specifically I like because you can get up close and personal

81
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:35,520
with nature.

82
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,840
You can be there in the water, like right above it.

83
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,800
And with a big boat, you're just not, you know?

84
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,160
There's a big distance between you and the water.

85
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,160
And I don't like that.

86
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,800
I like being up close and personal because I mean, I guess for other people they'd be

87
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:47,800
scared of it.

88
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,480
I, I said I wouldn't burp, but here I am.

89
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,320
I personally am very well able to swim.

90
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:56,320
I'm very good at that.

91
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,080
If anything, later today we're going to go swimming, me and my girlfriend.

92
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,440
The thing is, I'm, I've never been challenged, you know what I mean?

93
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:04,440
When it comes to swimming.

94
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:05,680
I mean, I've swam in the ocean.

95
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:10,360
Thankfully there was no currents, but I don't want to, I don't want to risk it.

96
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:15,720
But yeah, kayaking seems something, seems like something that'd be really fun to try.

97
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,680
But before I do that, I'm going to have to go somewhere that's not too deep, not too

98
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:26,040
shallow, somewhere where I can paddle on the water, like on the surface as practice.

99
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,240
Because apparently there's a bit of a learning curve.

100
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:33,120
It seems easy enough with the paddling because both people have to paddle in unison.

101
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,600
And if, if you want to turn one person has to turn one way, one person has to go the

102
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:43,560
other and you know, it's, it's a lot of, um, what's the term?

103
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,080
You gotta, you gotta learn.

104
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,740
It's a learning curve, but at the same time it's different when two people are in a canoe

105
00:04:49,740 --> 00:04:53,120
as opposed to when one person is, I'm still looking up everything.

106
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,840
So it's kind of exciting.

107
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:56,880
I'm actually really hyped to try it.

108
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:57,880
Very hyped indeed.

109
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,920
Also, another thing, this is something I want to put out in the world.

110
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:01,920
Okay.

111
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,120
I want to move on, I want to put this out in the world because if I don't, I'll never

112
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:10,040
challenge myself again because I'm, I'm dealing with writer's block.

113
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,040
Okay.

114
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,120
And I have been for the better part of a year.

115
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,240
I mean a full year.

116
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:15,240
Okay.

117
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,020
I have two books that I'm working on.

118
00:05:17,020 --> 00:05:18,520
One of them is near completion.

119
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,920
One of them is at the fucking like the intro.

120
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,200
That's how bad I am blocked.

121
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,200
Okay.

122
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,600
The second one I much prefer to finish because it's almost done and it's one of my passion

123
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,020
projects that I've had for a long time.

124
00:05:31,020 --> 00:05:33,720
But if I don't speak it out into the universe, I'll never get it done.

125
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,900
So I'm saying right now, I got to finish the tale of Gabriel part two.

126
00:05:36,900 --> 00:05:41,680
Tale of Gabriel part one is out now on Amazon and I'll, I'll link it into the description,

127
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,560
but I mean, you don't gotta buy it.

128
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:44,560
Okay.

129
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:45,560
It's, it's there.

130
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:46,560
I wrote a book.

131
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:47,560
That's right.

132
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,240
I wrote two, but the second one's a bit darker.

133
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:54,200
I don't know if you're into like darker tales, but like sci-fi, all that kind of stuff, you

134
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:55,200
might like it.

135
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:59,680
There, there it is now spoken on the universe.

136
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:00,680
Okay.

137
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:01,680
Wow.

138
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,160
A lot of things have happened today.

139
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,320
As of today, I mean August 24th at eight o'clock.

140
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,120
So I'm actually, I'm not rushing this out.

141
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,380
I'm actually got, I've got a lot of content this, this episode.

142
00:06:14,380 --> 00:06:17,120
The reason being is holy shit.

143
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,760
Trump's mugshot was released today, August 24th, 2023.

144
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:21,760
Okay.

145
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,240
Mark this day in the history books.

146
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,840
Now regardless of what side of the political spectrum you're on, everyone knows that Trump

147
00:06:26,840 --> 00:06:32,200
got impeached and a lot of legal stuff happened and his mugshot was released today.

148
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:34,240
By the way, a lot of people are sharing it on Twitter.

149
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,460
It is one of the most trending things I've ever seen.

150
00:06:36,460 --> 00:06:41,320
Everyone unanimously is like getting the picture and he's like all angry in it and everything.

151
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,320
I don't know.

152
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,460
There's a bunch of people who are getting arrested right now.

153
00:06:45,460 --> 00:06:46,720
It is a hell of a thing to see.

154
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,320
The thing is I'm not, I'm not entirely political.

155
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:55,480
You guys know this, but it is exciting to live through a historical event again, just

156
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,120
like when we covered January 6th was it?

157
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,800
You know, the, the storming of the white house, just, just like when we covered that.

158
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:08,120
It has been a hell of a year on top of August 24th being the day that Trump's mugshot was

159
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,440
released.

160
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,880
I also, well, I mentioned earlier in the podcast that I was a, I got a kayak and I was really

161
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,880
excited to use it.

162
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,960
Well I used it earlier and holy shit that is, there's a video of me not doing it for

163
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:22,960
the first time ever.

164
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,960
I immediately got how to paddle.

165
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,320
That's the turning that I struggle with.

166
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,320
It's very difficult.

167
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,160
You have to really maneuver the paddle around, but you also get really wet splashing it around,

168
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,160
but you know, you're in water.

169
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:33,800
What do you expect?

170
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,000
Although I'm definitely going to need a bigger body of water.

171
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:41,400
I did it in a pool, a above ground pool and I'm not going to lie.

172
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:42,400
That was fun.

173
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:43,400
It was so much fun.

174
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:44,400
I'm, I don't know.

175
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,720
I'm just sitting here all excited about it.

176
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,800
I need a bigger body of water to do it in, but I'm also very surprised with how high

177
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,800
up in the water it was.

178
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,120
Like I thought I needed deep water.

179
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:59,760
No, I was like right on the surface, which is awesome because that means that more bodies

180
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,360
of water nearby are, are up for it.

181
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:07,600
You know, more of them are, what's the term I'm looking for?

182
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,960
I have more opportunity because there's a lot of places out here that are shallow, but

183
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,600
you know, they're not like they got water in it.

184
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:15,960
You know, that's all I care about.

185
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:16,960
I just want to be on the water.

186
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,520
You know what I mean?

187
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,560
To give you a perspective on how high the water was for me, it was like, yeah, I was

188
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:29,160
in a pool, but when I got out, I realized that reaching the bottom of the, the kayak,

189
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,160
you know, near my foot, I was doing it like a comparison and get out.

190
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,760
It was around my, uh, my ankle or like the middle of my, like below my knee.

191
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,400
What is that spot called?

192
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:40,400
I don't know.

193
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,480
I don't know what it's called, but you know, it's not quite your knee, just underneath.

194
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,200
I went to medical school.

195
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,800
How did I forget this shit?

196
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,200
Um, damn it.

197
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:49,720
I'm trying to figure it out.

198
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,120
Your shin, there we go.

199
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,920
Your shin half halfway up your shin.

200
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,540
Why was it so difficult?

201
00:08:55,540 --> 00:08:58,200
You know, like, like I was doing just fine.

202
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,680
I forgot to mention, I think I did mention it, but I'm just going to mention it again.

203
00:09:02,680 --> 00:09:04,840
New YouTube videos in the works.

204
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,960
There is a lot of, um, there's a lot of footage.

205
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:09,960
Okay.

206
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:10,960
We went to universal studios.

207
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,680
I'm really excited about the video and I think I mentioned a previous episode, but I've been

208
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:17,440
again, I've been doing a lot of stuff.

209
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:18,440
Okay.

210
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:19,440
Okay.

211
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,920
I've been playing, uh, birth of the wild.

212
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,080
I'm almost done with it.

213
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,760
I'm trying to a hundred percent it, but I really, I don't know.

214
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:27,760
I don't know.

215
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,440
I've also been doing a lot of gardening, I guess.

216
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:32,440
Cutting grass.

217
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,440
Uh, my dog's had puppies finally.

218
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:40,080
I was waiting for, I was waiting for, what is it?

219
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:47,120
One of them gave birth the other day and today, August 24th again, the other one gave birth,

220
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:52,360
which is awesome because they, they now have, um, goddamn seven puppies.

221
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,360
That's a lot.

222
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,040
A lot of pure breeds too.

223
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,680
And it's awesome seeing them, but you know, you've got to maintain them.

224
00:09:57,680 --> 00:09:59,840
You got to hold your breath while doing some stuff.

225
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:00,840
It's not bad.

226
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,960
It's just, it's so adorable because they were both really hungry.

227
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:08,000
So I got them this food specifically like to heal them while they were just sitting

228
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,000
there nursing the new puppies.

229
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,920
And you can hear them barking and everything.

230
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:12,920
They're not barking yet.

231
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:13,920
They're just whimpering.

232
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,360
I'm very loud whimpers.

233
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:19,120
The problem is I already have dogs here, so they're just kind of peeking in.

234
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,640
And every time they're peeking in, my dogs that recently gave birth are really upset

235
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:24,640
with that.

236
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,720
Like they'll bark, they'll snarl at them, like get away from the puppies.

237
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,440
And a very unique thing happened too.

238
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,680
You see two of the dogs that, um, the two dogs that gave birth, one of them is much

239
00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:34,680
older than the other one.

240
00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:40,080
In fact, one of them named Haysha is, um, the mother of the other one.

241
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,580
The problem is the younger one has never had puppies before, whereas Haysha has had it

242
00:10:43,580 --> 00:10:47,400
way more before, you know, like, um, she's had a few babies already.

243
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,960
And the funny part about me is I leave them alone for one second.

244
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,320
Haysha goes to the other puppies, picks one up and just plays with it.

245
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:55,320
It's so adorable.

246
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,360
I just thought that was cute.

247
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,940
And Haysha's daughter was okay with it because you know, that's her mom.

248
00:11:02,940 --> 00:11:08,920
But I don't know, it's so cute seeing maternal instincts in dogs, like in other animals.

249
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,560
It's sweet, you know, like you just, you look at it and you think, I don't know, that's

250
00:11:13,560 --> 00:11:16,000
that's, that's wholesome.

251
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,000
It's touching my heart.

252
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,000
Okay.

253
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,160
It's really touching my heart as someone who wants kids in the future that really touches

254
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,040
my heart seeing it.

255
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,520
And I mean it too.

256
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,680
It feels nice.

257
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:28,360
It also feels really good.

258
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,160
Um, how do I put this?

259
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,920
Joseph Pfister, I am very glad seeing you post again.

260
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,280
Like I'm going to be completely honest.

261
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,640
As of August 24th, he released a video today.

262
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,360
It is fucking art.

263
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,640
Like it's supposed to be that joke, you know, I'm living in your walls and he comes out

264
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,480
and it's like a, it's a big reveal, right?

265
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,600
It's the way he edits his videos.

266
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,660
It's just, it's so fucking inspirational, man.

267
00:11:52,660 --> 00:11:57,440
Like if you, if you're listening to me right now, follow Doomer Cringe on TikTok.

268
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,280
I'm, I swear to God, he is, he's an artist, man.

269
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:02,280
He's fucking great.

270
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:03,440
I love his stuff.

271
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,360
Every time it comes out, he knows what he's doing.

272
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,600
It's either a funny video or a really well edited one.

273
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,200
And also follow Sophia Phoenix.

274
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,200
They work together.

275
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,200
I think they're both in sister.

276
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,200
Yeah, it's a sister.

277
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,120
Um, I don't know, man.

278
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,400
That video, like I was just watching it like Joseph, you, you, you about done yourself,

279
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:24,400
you know, I was waiting for a Renaissance and it fucking came in heaves.

280
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:25,560
You did really good in the last video.

281
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:26,840
I loved it.

282
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,720
I'm also glad to see that Balaake is like consistent.

283
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:34,000
Like he's been posting for a long time and I don't know, man.

284
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:35,640
He's just really going up there.

285
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:42,160
So, um, sorry, my Red Bull almost fell over.

286
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,360
Scratching Butt, you've been doing a lot of, a lot of good work lately.

287
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,880
Scratching Butt's videos recently have been well edited and they've been really funny.

288
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:50,880
I love them.

289
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:55,720
He's, he's taking his, um, his TikTok page in a new direction and I'm all for it.

290
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,120
Like it's funny.

291
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,240
It's, it's well edited, honestly.

292
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,400
The editing is what makes me laugh because it's, you have to see to believe it.

293
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,720
I don't know how to explain it, but you gotta watch it.

294
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:10,680
I just wanted to bring this out here, but, uh, Moodahar from some ordinary gamers, uh,

295
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:14,440
he posted on his Twitter, he recently hit a billion views on his channel on YouTube.

296
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,360
By the way, here at the Meatweed Podcast, we congratulate him.

297
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,760
Honestly, that's, it's well deserved.

298
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,680
Moodahar, you make some great videos, okay?

299
00:13:22,680 --> 00:13:24,960
Seriously, rooting for you.

300
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,800
I noticed something today when I was out there, um, kayaking on the outside, actually touching

301
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,460
grass.

302
00:13:31,460 --> 00:13:35,200
I noticed a number of, whoa, what's going on here?

303
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,720
My bad, I got a phone call.

304
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,560
Let this be a lesson to always turn off your phone when you're working.

305
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:42,400
But at the same time, I had to go pick up someone, so it's all right.

306
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,240
Anyway, I keep fucking seeing this meme.

307
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:50,280
Um, I know it's an older one, but I keep seeing it was just the cat that goes, Monday left

308
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,280
me broken.

309
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,520
You know, that one, but I was not aware.

310
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,520
I think it's a rumor.

311
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:59,240
I think it's, I think someone lied to me, but I heard that the singer of that song died.

312
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:00,840
Like again, I have no idea.

313
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:01,840
I'm going to Google it right now.

314
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:02,840
Why not?

315
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,720
I don't even know what the person's name is.

316
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:06,720
Okay.

317
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,280
That's, that's, that's sad.

318
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,880
Um, his, um, his cause of death was a suicide.

319
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:19,320
So back in 2018, I did not know that by the way, I do feel it's kind of, I don't know

320
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,880
if it's ironic or if it's something that we should maybe honor, cherish.

321
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,140
I don't know how to see these things, right?

322
00:14:25,140 --> 00:14:31,000
When it comes to certain memes, there's also, there's always people that die, but are a

323
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,000
meme.

324
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,640
And the thing is that the meme outlives them, right?

325
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,000
Cause I didn't know that Avicii was dead.

326
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:37,000
I okay.

327
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,000
I knew about it.

328
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,200
I just didn't know it was a suicide and I didn't know how long ago it was.

329
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,200
This is 2018.

330
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,880
That was a while ago.

331
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,600
And the thing is I, I never cared for the song.

332
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,960
I didn't know about the guy, but I saw the memes and now I'm thinking, okay, so the meme

333
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,440
made him live a bit longer, you know, in our minds.

334
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,920
Cause we have this thing in a Mexican tradition where as long as you remember someone's name

335
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,320
and face, they're not really dead.

336
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,320
You know, they're not fully dead.

337
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,300
No one fully and truly dies until they're completely forgotten.

338
00:15:04,300 --> 00:15:09,920
And I think memes, you know, using that logic, memes extend your life.

339
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,280
So I thought that was interesting.

340
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:17,680
Also, I didn't realize how big of a variety of memes are where there's a meme for everything.

341
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:22,400
Like you could just generate a random meme based on like when you drink water, you know,

342
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,400
that's a fucking meme.

343
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,360
In fact, I know it is.

344
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,440
All right.

345
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:30,840
It's just, how do you, how do you explain that to someone who doesn't know internet

346
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:31,840
lingo?

347
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:32,840
You know what I mean?

348
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:33,840
It's confusing.

349
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:34,840
I need to bring this up right now.

350
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:35,840
This caught me off guard.

351
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,720
What the fuck just happened?

352
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,520
Look at TikTok has these things, right?

353
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:41,520
It's always updating.

354
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,280
It's got these things that if you really look into it, it's interesting.

355
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:45,280
Sure.

356
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:46,280
Whatever.

357
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,280
Why not?

358
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,360
Why in the holy mother of fuck did it just offer me how to make an IED?

359
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:52,640
I don't want to know how to do that.

360
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:53,880
Are you kidding me?

361
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:54,880
It gets worse.

362
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:55,880
Okay.

363
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:56,880
It wasn't just a video.

364
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:00,800
It says you might like this series and it offers it says, would you like to purchase

365
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:01,800
it?

366
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,120
Naturally, I was curious to see what the price would be.

367
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,440
So I looked it up and said, sorry, this is no longer available, but it keeps offering

368
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:08,880
it.

369
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,480
Why offer something that doesn't exist?

370
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,920
It's crazy to me, but that's, that's tick tock, man.

371
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:15,920
That's the nature of tick tock.

372
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,540
Tick tock is very bizarre.

373
00:16:17,540 --> 00:16:18,920
You know, you learn a lot of stuff on there.

374
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,600
You really shouldn't learn.

375
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:25,160
Like there's this series that I like about this guy who reviews food, but then immediately

376
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:31,560
just goes off about political stuff or things that aren't discussed in mainstream media,

377
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:32,560
stuff like that.

378
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:33,560
You know what I mean?

379
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,900
But at the same time, I don't know, it's kind of annoying.

380
00:16:35,900 --> 00:16:40,600
At some point he just kind of loses his appeal, I guess.

381
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,560
Like he'll go, that looks good.

382
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:46,120
And then he'll go the U S embassy, this and that and whatnot.

383
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,440
And you know, good for him.

384
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,280
But like, I don't know, man.

385
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,680
After a while, it just kind of gets the same, samey.

386
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:52,680
You know what I mean?

387
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,680
It's like, what can we even do about this shit, dude?

388
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:55,680
Nothing.

389
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:56,680
You can't do anything about it.

390
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:57,920
Just lay there and enjoy it.

391
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,560
I get, no, no, don't do that.

392
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,400
But yeah, that's, that's the kind of stuff I'm watching a lot.

393
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,320
Also a lot of cooking, a lot of travel stuff.

394
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,720
Now that I have the kayak thing, I'm learning more about that.

395
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,680
The kayak is, I can't get over how fucking fun it is, dude.

396
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,520
Seriously, like I've, I've dreamed about having a kayak since I was a kid.

397
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:21,160
And now that I have one and I've used it, I can honestly say another thing off the bucket

398
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:22,160
list.

399
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:23,160
You know what I mean?

400
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,120
By the way, I keep mentioning this bucket list, but that bucket list is getting very,

401
00:17:26,120 --> 00:17:27,120
very light.

402
00:17:27,120 --> 00:17:28,120
You know what I mean?

403
00:17:28,120 --> 00:17:31,000
There's not much left on the bucket list to do.

404
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,280
I was thinking maybe visit Russia, but not right now.

405
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:39,160
While we're on the topic of internet, internet things in general, I, we could talk about

406
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,000
how Spotify recently labeled both of my podcasts accurately.

407
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,940
Actually, I'm really proud about that.

408
00:17:45,940 --> 00:17:49,280
One of them, meet with podcast, you know, the one you're listening to now is labeled

409
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:50,840
as arts and entertainment.

410
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:51,840
By the way, thank you for that.

411
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,080
I actually love that.

412
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,920
That's, that's something that's accurate.

413
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:55,920
Okay.

414
00:17:55,920 --> 00:18:01,120
A lot of websites for some reason label me as a news, which, oh, you know what?

415
00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:02,120
That's probably on me.

416
00:18:02,120 --> 00:18:06,260
The first time I ever made an ad, I said it was like internet news, which is still kind

417
00:18:06,260 --> 00:18:09,640
of accurate, but I just read whatever's trending on Twitter.

418
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,840
Another one is a story slash true crime for morbid universe.

419
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:13,840
That one's accurate.

420
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:14,840
I like that.

421
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,040
There's something we got to discuss that unfortunately I'll be honest.

422
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:22,400
I've been pussy footing around it because it's one of those topics that for me is pushing

423
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:27,320
the limit because we have rules on this podcast and that is one, no politics, two, no racism,

424
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:28,960
three, nothing too controversial.

425
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:35,120
The problem is this one falls into two of the three categories, which again, I don't

426
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:36,640
want to go too deep into it.

427
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:37,760
I don't want to offend anyone.

428
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,280
I don't want to upset anyone.

429
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,280
Okay.

430
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,440
Nonetheless, we must talk about it.

431
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,400
This is important for a number of reasons.

432
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:45,400
Okay.

433
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,480
We already brushed up on it earlier and again, I, I pussy fitted around it again, but I don't

434
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,120
want to do it this time because here's the thing.

435
00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:59,520
A United States president has never been put in jail except for one Ulysses S Grant while

436
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:00,520
in office.

437
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:01,520
He was put in jail.

438
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,080
The thing is there's a difference here.

439
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:08,720
You know, uh, Trump is no longer in office, but you know, at the same time, it, it really

440
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,520
has a lot of implications here because you got to understand there's a thing about his

441
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:13,520
followers.

442
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,400
He's a personal personality, so to speak.

443
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:20,480
Those who are followers of Trump are very, very devoted to him.

444
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,680
And that's, it's, it's worrisome to think about the implications because we are, we

445
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,520
all remember the beginning of the year, right?

446
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:27,880
January 6th.

447
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:28,880
Okay.

448
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:34,740
Now that was, that was big, big news, right?

449
00:19:34,740 --> 00:19:38,000
This is going to just anger them even more.

450
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,240
It begs the question.

451
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:44,680
It makes a man think what's going to happen later on, you know, is there some big storm

452
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:45,680
brewing?

453
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:50,320
We don't know, but at the same time, you know, be vigilant and just, just be sure nothing

454
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:51,320
crazy is going to happen.

455
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,320
I hope not.

456
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:57,440
Seriously, this is not, this is not me like pussy footing or this is not me saying something.

457
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:58,760
This is no double meaning.

458
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:03,520
I worry about when things like this happen because this is a big deal.

459
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:09,000
So if, if you think someone's acting suspicious all of a sudden, Hey, maybe bring it up, but

460
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,800
I, I don't know who to bring it up to.

461
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,480
That's the problem.

462
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,160
Again, big implications here.

463
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:17,960
Let's just see where it goes.

464
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,840
That's all I wanted to bring up about that.

465
00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,860
You know, I started the keto diet on Sunday.

466
00:20:22,860 --> 00:20:24,280
It's not going well.

467
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:30,320
Um, I think I mentioned earlier, but I just can't get over the fact that I have the same

468
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,280
side effects as when I was quitting smoking.

469
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,280
Let me, let me put more into detail.

470
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:36,280
What happened?

471
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,920
I was a soda, that was my brother's, it was Dr. Pepper, right?

472
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,400
It looked crisp, looked delicious.

473
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,400
I could not have it.

474
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,360
I physically was sweating and I had shakes.

475
00:20:46,360 --> 00:20:50,540
Like I wanted to grab it and chug the whole thing, but you know, would have defeated the

476
00:20:50,540 --> 00:20:51,540
purpose of keto.

477
00:20:51,540 --> 00:20:53,360
It is not easy.

478
00:20:53,360 --> 00:20:55,160
I fucking miss bread.

479
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:56,160
Okay.

480
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,920
Like there's a ketogenic bread that I bought.

481
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,000
It's not as good as regular bread.

482
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,440
You lie to yourself saying, yeah, it's just as good.

483
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,800
I also tried almond butter instead of peanut butter.

484
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,120
It has a consistency of wet sand, but it tastes like almonds.

485
00:21:08,120 --> 00:21:11,120
So it's not bad, but it takes some getting used to.

486
00:21:11,120 --> 00:21:16,960
I spread an incredibly thin layer on a piece of keto bread and it was the saddest meal

487
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:17,960
I've ever had.

488
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,360
But I mean, it filled me up at least.

489
00:21:21,360 --> 00:21:24,480
And then after that, I followed it with a gallon of water.

490
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,440
Like I don't know.

491
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:27,800
I don't know if I'm doing this right.

492
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:28,800
Okay.

493
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:29,800
I feel weird.

494
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:30,800
I feel very weird.

495
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:35,040
The other day too, because of this, I went to the gym and I was exercising and I had

496
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,160
maybe a third of the energy.

497
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,960
I no longer have the carbohydrates in my body.

498
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,040
And I guess it's just burning through fat at this point.

499
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,760
Like I was able to do my mile and a half, but that's pretty much it.

500
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,800
Like I try to lift weights and everything and I just, I could not do it.

501
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,120
I have weights in the other room and I'm scared to try it.

502
00:21:54,120 --> 00:21:56,440
Here's the difference between this diet and the rest.

503
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,960
This one I'm actually sticking with because there's far more options for keto than I

504
00:21:59,960 --> 00:22:00,960
anticipated.

505
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,320
And I'm very hopeful for this one.

506
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,840
The only difference is there's a hurdle you're supposed to get past, right?

507
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,160
You're supposed to get past ketosis and it feels a certain way.

508
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:16,000
I think I feel it now because it's been since Sunday, which by the time you hear this, it's

509
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,000
going to be Friday.

510
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,120
I'm actually uploading this in one hour.

511
00:22:18,120 --> 00:22:21,040
So that's how recent this is right now.

512
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,520
I have chills.

513
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:24,480
So I don't know if that's a good thing or not.

514
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,200
Every time I mentioned ketosis, my body like shivers a bit, but I've noticed some weights

515
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,120
coming off like immediately.

516
00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:32,640
Like it's actually pretty quick.

517
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,620
So those who want to try keto, go ahead and try it.

518
00:22:35,620 --> 00:22:40,920
It is very good to cut back on sugar, but for me I'm cutting it entirely.

519
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,240
And it feels, you physically feel the addiction to sugar.

520
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:49,160
Like some people can go, Oh, I can't go a day without sugar or caffeine.

521
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,520
Well actually try it, you know, actually try to go those few days without it and you'll

522
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:54,520
feel it.

523
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,200
Your body feels so different.

524
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,160
Right now how I feel, right?

525
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:00,560
Is it's not lethargy.

526
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:05,880
I feel like, I feel like I've been in fast forward my entire life and I'm finally on

527
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,200
regular, you know, if that makes any sense to you, you know, thank you.

528
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:14,160
First of all, but that's the best I can explain it.

529
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,720
Like it feels just like that word for word.

530
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:21,840
What I just said, imagine that imagine your entire life, you've been going at fast forward

531
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:26,120
and now you've slowed down basically back to regular speed.

532
00:23:26,120 --> 00:23:27,560
My heart feels good.

533
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:28,560
Like I'm not going to lie.

534
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:34,080
I feel like, I feel like my heart racing was a side effect of all the sugar and caffeine

535
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,120
and carbohydrates I was eating.

536
00:23:36,120 --> 00:23:38,000
Cause I was eating monstrous amounts.

537
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:39,000
Okay.

538
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,820
I was the guy who, if I was eating pasta, I would just keep eating.

539
00:23:42,820 --> 00:23:47,180
Like even after I was full, I was, I would keep eating and I'm noticing a lot of things

540
00:23:47,180 --> 00:23:49,840
about myself and I'm very self conscious now.

541
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:50,840
I hate it.

542
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:57,080
I really hate it, but this is dieting, I guess it, it took some getting used to, but I think

543
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,080
I'm there.

544
00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:59,160
That's the best part about it for me.

545
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:06,080
Cause I was really, I was also really addicted to soda and you know, that went away really

546
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:07,320
quickly.

547
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:08,920
That was the first thing that went away for me.

548
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,600
After that, I've just been, you know what it was?

549
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,680
I was also, I was also a big fan of crumble cookies.

550
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,240
I'd get the new brand every week.

551
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,240
Don't do that.

552
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:18,240
Um, please don't.

553
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:20,560
That shit is so bad for you.

554
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,480
The only thing I like about keto right now, right?

555
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:28,600
Is that because it's become a popular diet, there are way more options again.

556
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,720
And it, it helps.

557
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:36,800
It helps immensely because my favorite thing about the keto diet is I can eat steak, you

558
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:37,800
know, I can eat meat.

559
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,120
I'm fine with that.

560
00:24:39,120 --> 00:24:48,360
I can eat fish and I can eat, yeah, chicken, fish, you know, meat, animals, and it tastes

561
00:24:48,360 --> 00:24:49,360
good.

562
00:24:49,360 --> 00:24:54,280
The only problem is if I want a burger, it has to be wrapped in lettuce and no ketchup.

563
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:55,280
That's it.

564
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,280
That's a keto burger right there.

565
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,440
Regular burger, wrap it in lettuce, no ketchup.

566
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,680
And just for, just on the safe side, no mustard either.

567
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,600
Is it, is, is mustard keto?

568
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:05,600
Let me check.

569
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:06,600
Okay.

570
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:07,600
Yeah.

571
00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,600
Live, live on, live on the air.

572
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:15,400
We're Googling is mustard keto.

573
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,400
Let's look at it.

574
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,520
Mustard is a great keto friendly condiment.

575
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:25,000
You want to avoid some mustard such as honey mustard.

576
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,000
Got it.

577
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,360
Honey mustard is not keto.

578
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:28,360
Regular mustard is.

579
00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:29,360
Now we know.

580
00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:34,560
Me and my girlfriend went to this event the other day that was really fun where on Sundays,

581
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:41,360
if you go to PetSmart, you can, you can hold the cats that are, that are upper adoption.

582
00:25:41,360 --> 00:25:44,200
And honestly, it's, I don't know, it's, it's, it was fun.

583
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,680
I really liked it.

584
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,760
It is something so simple about going into a PetSmart and just looking at the pets, even

585
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,520
if you don't intend to buy any.

586
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:56,720
Like I walked in and I looked at all the lizards and stuff and that used to be my strong suit.

587
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,120
I used to collect lizards and stuff.

588
00:25:59,120 --> 00:26:03,760
Many of which actually some of them were released in my backyard.

589
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,320
And the thing about where I live, right, is it's such a unique ecosystem that they're

590
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:08,320
thriving.

591
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,000
They're actually very much thriving here.

592
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,880
So that's a thing.

593
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:13,880
Blue belly lizards.

594
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,720
You guys know what kind of lizards those are.

595
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,120
You know that everyone has this rumor where they're like poisonous if they bite you and

596
00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:21,120
stuff.

597
00:26:21,120 --> 00:26:22,960
I don't know if that's true or not.

598
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:27,800
And at this point in my life, I'm actually surprised I've never Googled that.

599
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,520
It is blowing my fucking mind right now that I never Googled this because she's a thing.

600
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:32,720
Live on air.

601
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,880
I Googled blue belly lizard.

602
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:35,880
That's what we call them here.

603
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,920
And that is not their name at all.

604
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,000
Nor are they poisonous, nor are they venomous in any way.

605
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,480
Like you can hold them and if they bite you, it's fine.

606
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,480
You're fine.

607
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,920
It's called the western fence lizard.

608
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,240
They were all over our backyard.

609
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:54,720
And the thing is, these crossbreeded with green anoles that we had and they made a unique

610
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,560
lizard that was very small but cute.

611
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:58,840
I love those lizards, right?

612
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,120
When I was a kid, I absolutely loved everything reptile.

613
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:03,400
I was all about that life.

614
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,040
In fact, I would have gotten a snake if my mom wasn't incredibly afraid of them.

615
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,640
Like she has a huge phobia of snakes to the point where if she sees one, she'll just like

616
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,120
freak out.

617
00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:17,800
I understand it because you know our history is that in Mexico, the most common snake is

618
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,000
the rattlesnake.

619
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,480
And yeah, it's totally normal to have a fear of snakes when that's your, that's what you

620
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,360
were raised with.

621
00:27:25,360 --> 00:27:26,360
I was not.

622
00:27:26,360 --> 00:27:27,600
I was raised with corn snakes.

623
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,360
A lot of them which we could just grab out of the ground.

624
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:32,960
They hated it but you know if they bit you, you'd be fine.

625
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,760
Just wash off the blood.

626
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,840
It's funny thinking about the differences between your childhood and your parents childhood.

627
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,840
You gotta understand, unless you're living in the same country, there is a night and

628
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:44,840
day difference.

629
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,000
You know what I mean?

630
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:51,640
I'm talking entirely because like Mexico's jurisdiction, Mexico's like governance, governance,

631
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:52,640
I said that wrong.

632
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:57,520
Yeah governance versus the United States is like super different.

633
00:27:57,520 --> 00:27:59,600
The thing is, it's hard to explain.

634
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,160
If you live in Mexico, you understand that there's a lot of things you can't do that

635
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,320
in America you just can't and it's very normal here.

636
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,080
For example, freedom of speech.

637
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:09,080
It's a thing here in the US.

638
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,080
We love it.

639
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:11,080
We use it all the time.

640
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,160
In Mexico, not so much but it's hard to explain why.

641
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:18,000
Specifically there's like, like if you're on TV and you go you know fuck the government

642
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:22,280
and this and that and you're like a big named star, you should run.

643
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:23,400
You're a target now.

644
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,120
That's what that means.

645
00:28:26,120 --> 00:28:30,720
But at the same time, you know, different country, different set of rules, okay?

646
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:31,720
Different constitution.

647
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,320
That's just how it is.

648
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,600
Every country has their own set of rules.

649
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:42,760
Like it's just I guess when you're born and raised with it, it's different from when you

650
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,280
have kids and you move to another location.

651
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:47,560
You know what I mean?

652
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:48,720
I was born here but still.

653
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,080
I was born in LA.

654
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,080
Actually I was born in Lakewood.

655
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:57,960
So if anyone out there from Lakewood, California, you are currently living where I was born.

656
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,020
So you know, shout out to my LA boys.

657
00:29:01,020 --> 00:29:02,160
Is Lakewood LA?

658
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:03,160
I'm going to say it is.

659
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,920
Anyway, I don't know why I went so long on that.

660
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:08,920
What was this episode man?

661
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,680
I just love kayaking so much.

662
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,600
Yep, we're back to it.

663
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:13,800
I'm going to kayak some more.

664
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:18,120
I'm thinking of buying another one just because like if they're on clearance, I'm going to

665
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:22,240
buy another one just so me and my girlfriend have our own and it'd be like so cool.

666
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,020
You know, just to fucking paddle around and stuff.

667
00:29:25,020 --> 00:29:27,400
We definitely got to practice together though babe, okay?

668
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,400
I know you're listening so we got to practice together.

669
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,080
Anyway, that's going to do it for this episode of the Meet We Podcast.

670
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:38,360
If you're listening on New York City Podcast Network, please vote this episode up and if

671
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:43,600
you're listening on Spotify, be sure to like and you know, give me five stars.

672
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,440
Be sure to share it with people and comment.

673
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,840
Like there's actually a comment feature on Spotify now.

674
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,080
Be sure to comment on the episode.

675
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,200
You know, say whatever you're feeling.

676
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:59,740
There's a Patreon and also a new link, two new links in the link tree.

677
00:29:59,740 --> 00:30:00,920
It's actually two my books.

678
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:02,240
You can find them on Amazon.

679
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:03,240
You don't got to buy them.

680
00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:06,840
Just check them out if you listen to me and because these are books that I made when I'm

681
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:08,240
much younger.

682
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:14,260
But now, now I have an incentive to actually, you know, finish the stories which have been

683
00:30:14,260 --> 00:30:16,280
in a Google Doc for a month now.

684
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:17,600
I need to get back to it.

685
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:18,600
Alright, see you guys next week.

686
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:31,400
I'm going to be working on some books.
