And for your support, I do appreciate it. 3 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:28,900 Because of you guys, this podcast is still going on, because I know a lot of people are enjoying this, 4 00:00:28,900 --> 00:00:34,600 especially my clients, they're like, oh my god, what episode are you gonna do next? I really love your podcast. 5 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:42,200 And stuff like that, which makes me super happy, because I've done podcasts before, kind of like a podcast, 6 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:49,300 but in my personal life, for something else. So yeah, but this podcast is doing good, you know, 7 00:00:49,300 --> 00:00:55,300 every day it's like a new view from somewhere in the world. It's so much fun to keep up with. 8 00:00:55,300 --> 00:01:03,800 But anyways, I'm gonna be talking about the Renaissance Faire, particularly the one in Huntersville, North Carolina. 9 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:12,400 It's called the Carolina Renaissance Faire. It's in Carolinas, obviously, particularly North, if I have not said it yet. 10 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:21,300 And it's pretty big, I'm sure there's like super, super big ones, but this one had like a bunch of, you know, 11 00:01:21,300 --> 00:01:32,600 vendors, and they had Jostling, or Jostling, I keep forgetting that word, but it's where two guys dressed as knights, 12 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:40,800 they have spears and they fight. So they hit each other, they try to get each other's shields, so, and get points. 13 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:46,300 So yeah, I literally came for that, because I've never seen it, I always wanted to see it. 14 00:01:46,300 --> 00:01:56,200 Obviously, it would be super, super fun to participate another day, maybe if I apply and whatnot, yeah, for next year. 15 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:06,500 But yeah, so that was fun. So a lot of cool juggling acts, so some body art, you know, my type of people who dress in costumes 16 00:02:06,500 --> 00:02:14,700 and want to cosplay as people from eighteen or, I guess, sixteen hundreds, the Renaissance era, so yeah. 17 00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:23,500 And it's so much fun just to people watching, just to see different costumes, not just girls, but guys too. 18 00:02:23,500 --> 00:02:30,600 There were a lot of pirates, which was awesome, because I dressed as pirateess again, because I like dressing, you know, 19 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:40,900 I have this skirt that, the front part of it can go as high as you'd like, but, and it provides really good ventilation. 20 00:02:40,900 --> 00:02:49,900 I wear a corset and I wore the blouse underneath the corset, so that way my boobs look bigger. 21 00:02:49,900 --> 00:03:00,000 There were some girls, there were some girls, like, I understand that, you know, there are a lot of fat people, big girls, I guess, 22 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:10,700 so obviously they have big boobs, but some of them, they were really, they were bras, obviously, but I wish I had a lot of faith in myself, 23 00:03:10,700 --> 00:03:18,300 as much as those girls have the faith in bras, because it's like, I could see the whole cleavage, except for the nipples. 24 00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:27,300 So it's like, if something's gonna happen, like, the bra is gonna slip off, but lots of cute girls in general, 25 00:03:27,300 --> 00:03:37,300 lots of cute guys as well, a lot of men, lots, you know, a lot of girls were dressed as fairies and pirates as well. 26 00:03:37,300 --> 00:03:47,300 Well, not a lot of piratesses, but guys dressed up as pirates, as knights, but yeah, yeah, some cool garb. 27 00:03:47,300 --> 00:03:56,100 So, yeah, if you ever go, just Google Carolina Renaissance Fair, it should show up, and there you will see all kinds of pictures, 28 00:03:56,100 --> 00:04:05,700 and just the area that is held in, everything is super organized, everybody is super friendly, there's petting zoos, so kids are more than welcome, 29 00:04:05,700 --> 00:04:15,700 there's a lot of kids there, but mostly, you know, millennials and Generation X, so boomers, boomers as well. 30 00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:25,100 So, yeah, such a fun time, and obviously there's food, there's alcohol, lots of really good local vendors, 31 00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:31,700 local and out-of-state vendors that make their own stuff, it's all kinds of different stuff, 32 00:04:31,700 --> 00:04:43,700 like from glass dragons to, you know, fairy, books about fairies, stuff like that. 33 00:04:43,700 --> 00:04:53,700 There was so much stuff, like I probably was there for four or five hours almost, just to see everything, 34 00:04:53,700 --> 00:05:03,700 and I tried taking my time and socializing, saying hello. Some of the vendors, they had the no photos signs, 35 00:05:03,700 --> 00:05:11,700 which is weird, because I get it, maybe like somebody gets the idea from their artwork and then tries to sell that, 36 00:05:11,700 --> 00:05:18,700 but I don't know, I like photos, I took photos of everything. Oh, there's also live mermaids. 37 00:05:18,700 --> 00:05:26,700 Obviously they're not mermaids, but don't tell your daughters that, because yeah, and they're pretty, 38 00:05:26,700 --> 00:05:33,700 and their makeup stays on, I don't know how their makeup stayed on, because I want something like that, 39 00:05:33,700 --> 00:05:39,700 I want waterproof makeup, and those mermaids, they were swimming in the water and, you know, 40 00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:46,700 kind of communicating, sort of flirting with the audience, which was great. Let's see, what else? 41 00:05:46,700 --> 00:05:53,700 You know, lots of cool acts. Yeah, I would just highly recommend it. I just wanted to tell you guys about it, 42 00:05:53,700 --> 00:06:01,700 so you know what to expect. Always bring water, no, always bring like a glass bottle without water, 43 00:06:01,700 --> 00:06:07,700 because they don't let food and drinks inside, because you know, you have to buy them inside, 44 00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:14,700 but always make sure to bring something, that way you can fill it up with water later at the fair. 45 00:06:14,700 --> 00:06:21,700 Yeah, always stay hydrated, always wear sunscreen, even if there is no sun, still wear sunscreen, 46 00:06:21,700 --> 00:06:29,700 because you will get burnt like me. Yeah. Let's see, what else? Sunscreen, water, socialize, 47 00:06:29,700 --> 00:06:36,700 take shit enough pictures, ask people to take pictures of you, because yeah, one way to break the ice is like, 48 00:06:36,700 --> 00:06:44,700 hey, I'm here by myself, I don't have any friends, can you take a picture of me?
