Speaker 1 (00:00):
Join Raddy and I for a part two of our
special on Purpose episode Today with BMW. Today, Rady and
I switch rolls and I go grocery shopping in Raddy's place.
Tune in for the road trip with the all electric
BMW I X.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Super nice, pretty spacious. Let's go.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
So, Raddy, what's the challenge today?

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Okay, So, remember a couple of years ago we did
this YouTube video where you made something.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Yeah, I've been trying to block it out.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Okay, So you at that time made me? What did
you make me?

Speaker 1 (00:31):
I made you? So this is the one and only
time in our entire life.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
To the one time only.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
And I promised it would be one time only. I
cooked you a stuffed pepper and it was the best
right stuff pepper you'd ever heard in your entire life.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
It was. It actually made it into my cookbook. I
don't know whether I've ever even told you this, but
there is a recipe. It wasn't you our of all
people have a recipe in my Li's amazing. No.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
I told you if I wanted to be a chef,
i'd be you know.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
I was asking if you've ever cooked me with there's
any recipes that remind me of you, And there was one.
It was either that all beans on toast. They said
I couldn't put beans? What made it into my book?
Just because stuffed pepper didn't feel fun enough? It's a
one part Mexican rice.

Speaker 3 (01:15):
Well why did do stuff pepper not feel good enough?

Speaker 2 (01:17):
It just feels like a bit basic. Honestly, the actual
Mexican rice has made it. It's like a one part
Mexican rice dish. So you already kind of know how
to do this.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
I don't I a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
What we're going to do is you're going to go
into the grocery store or the supermarket as we like
to call it, and we are going to You're gonna
buy all the ingline.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
This is my worst nightmare.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
But on top of that, just to make it a
little bit spassic, we are going to get you making
some guacamole and some healthy sour cream to be able
to dollive on top, and then I will joyfully eat
it for lunch.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
While we're on the way to the grocery store, let's
answer some questions.

Speaker 1 (01:56):
Let's do it so you've got them next to you,
because I can't I can't read question and driver at
the same time, I think that would be very safe.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
If we were in corporal karaoke right now, what would
what would it be?

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Mine would be yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah. Or it would be baby, calm down,
calm down, you know that. Don't tell me no, no, no,
you have to know the word. You always make fun
of me because he makes fun of me and my
music choice because he says a lot of it. There

(02:26):
isn't actual words. It's either mumble or is sound sounds,
So that would be mine. If it was Jay you
will be don't never stop it? So yeah, Drakes song.
Everybody obviously got that I was doing right.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
That's exactly where all right.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Other questions, what's the biggest difference between drivers in LA
and drivers in London? To say, I do find LA
drivers a little bit more impatient, just really really yeah,
I do find there's a lot more bee paying. No
one wants to give you a way, whereas you know what,
in London, I'd say, people do let you into things
really yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
Interesting.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
One thing I really love about driving in LA is
a driver myself is I love the palm trees.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
I feel like I'm on a constant vacation.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Drivers though, right, right, But I.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Agree, I do find the highways scary in LA too,
because when people are switching lanes. Yeah, when people are
switching lanes, and obviously everything's the other way around for us,
so you're driving on a different side of the road
and the steering wheels on the different side of the car.
So especially I find when I come back from London,
I find it even scarier and I find myself too
much on one side or the other.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Oh, I do that all the time.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
But yeah, and I think, I mean, I think drivers
pretty much everywhere in the world are pretty impatient.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Yeah I am to Do you believe you are? Do
you believe you're a backseat driver? Okay, I'm a proud
backseat driver. You know why because my line every time
I do a backseat driver thing like watch out or
don't go that close is imagine I didn't say that.
I could have just saved your life and somebody else's.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
The difference is every time you say it, I'm like,
the way you say it is more likely to cause
an accident. Yeah exactly, yes, yeah exactly, then save me.
Like I'm like, literally I have a shock, Like I
literally have a shock every time you say and what happened?
Like what happened is something? Something happened and you're.

Speaker 2 (04:15):
Like, no, just it's my usual. Oh my gosh, this mummy.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, mummy, it's like, what's mummy going to do?

Speaker 2 (04:21):
I would say I am more of a backseat driver
than Jay.

Speaker 3 (04:23):
It's yes, I'm not a backst driver at all.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Maybe that just shows I can.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Also not a backst driver in life.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Oh line drop.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
No, No, But it's it's an interesting question, right, like this.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
Is like you know what on me is? Actually you
know what? Let's go deeper into that. What does it
mean to be a backseat driver in your life? What
does it mean? Jay to be a backseat driver? Please?
Do you tell us? No?

Speaker 1 (04:46):
I just I just think that some of us, you know,
grab life by the steering wheel and navigate and take
the journey ourselves, and some of us sit in the
back seat and criticize and judge and.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
Complain about Do you not think that in life we
need both backseat drivers and people who want to take
the steering wheel, and too many steering wheel people would
actually be not not good.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
That that's an amazing question. That's an amazing question.

Speaker 1 (05:18):
No, I believe that when you're driving, you should drive
safely and securely and responsibly, and when you're in the
back seat, you should be obedient.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
I'm talking about that.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
In life, in life, in life.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
Okay, next question, people, next question, if you could pick
three people to fill your car with?

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Good question, Oh, just reminder of these were questions that
my team came up with, so we had no.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
Idea what we're going to be.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
If you could pick three people to fill your car
with on a road trip.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Who would they be on Let's try one.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Three people in the whole time world. Yeah, okay, I knows, Yeah,
mine would be Okay, for a lie, would be my grandma,
my niece, and my nephew Banta forever. So much fun. No,
but that would be like it would be so funny

(06:12):
between the back you can be in the carton but
not alive. I would love to have a car full
of like my grandma and then her grandma and like one.
I love driving around old people. I do it for
my grandma and her friends all the time, and it
is so much fun because they're hilarious. You know. One
thing I found my dad opens up on road trips,

(06:33):
like if it's just me and him he's driving me
to the airport, or my sister told me yesterday that
he was driving her to the airport and he starts
telling stories about himself. Like it creates this time and
space where people can open up a little bit. And
so with that in mind, I think I would want
that with people that I really wish I had got
to know but wouldn't have.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
The chance to What questions would you ask or what
game would you play with these people on a long.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
Joe for fun? I would definitely you play well our
version Indian version of carpor karaoke and tactuary where you're
just sing like old Indian songs. But I imagine my
grandma and her ancestors would probably sing like devotional songs
or god songs, which is amazing. But then to actually
ask them questions. Oh, I love word association. I think
it tells a lot about people, right to like to

(07:20):
like understand when they hear something what they related to. So, yeah,
what about you? Who would your three people? Babe?

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Oh gosh, all right, So if it was living it
would be you, my sister.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
And my mom.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Yeah, and that would be like my family trip.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Yeah, if it was people who weren't alive or like people.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
I'd want it to be Steve Jobs, mind, Luther King
and Einstein.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
Oh, and I wouldn't say anything. I would just listen.

Speaker 2 (07:58):
Would be all of them.

Speaker 3 (07:59):
I wouldn't yah as I would have not. I would
just listen.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
I would have nothing to say and think about what.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
They would say.

Speaker 2 (08:05):
You know, it was just so fun in the car
that we've done a few a few random car trips
with him together is rather than a swam because I
feel like he really brings up such good conversation and
also does the same thing my dad does, where there's
so many stories that come out during those trips. I
love those trips. Actually, I take you out and put
him into mind. Sorry, got it with my nephew.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
I'm not sure that I was going to say, the
other person you love having in the car is there?

Speaker 2 (08:33):
Oh yeah, that's a good car.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yeah, yeah, that's true.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
That's a good answer. That would be a really interesting
conversation to have if it was possible. Who is more
likely to leave the car lights on overnight? I literally
did that yesterday, not overnight.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
Now, you leave the car lights on, you leave the
car unlocked, You forget to charge the car.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
I leave my little like, we're so.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
Lucky that we have electric cars. Right now, this is.

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Always lost their hairband, spared drink, spare some pair of sunglasses,
some snacks. There's always something here lingering right, really a blessing.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
So then yeah, I would mean me, I'll take that.
I find that I go through periods, but the car
is immacula. And then when I have too many clothes
shoes in.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
The car, there are times I literally come to the
car and it's like he's been living out of his
car for a long time.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
Because I've started to realize that it happened the other night, Right,
I needed a suit because I had an event to
go to, And I've started to realize, so I keep
my pickle wall stuff in the car. I need my
I need a suit in the car. I need a
suitcase in the car, potentially, Like I find like so
much in my life is so like last minute, I
jump on a plane, do this, do that that. I've
started to realize that I need to be more prepared.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
I feel like you weren't prepared for this road trip
because where are my beverages?

Speaker 1 (09:49):
No, but we're gonna buy some junior when we get there,
he's most likely to get castick in a car that
driving me.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
Yeah, I get cast sick so much.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
I still's figure that out though, that kind.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
Of this is going way deep into this. Shall we
let's dive into it, Jay.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
Come on, I'm trying to figure out this whole classic situation.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
Why is the imbalance in the ear But there's nothing
to figure out?

Speaker 3 (10:11):
But then how do we solve our imbalance because we've
had this for a while.

Speaker 2 (10:14):
No, it's an imbalance in like your ear drum. So
there are different ways you can use peppermint all that
really helps me. Chewing on ginger, that's really helpful. And
then if you are reading read upwards. Okay. The next
question is would you need maps to get from our
house to go to a grocery? Yes? Yes, I think

(10:35):
Google Maps has really ruined my ability to absorb in
things around me. And I don't know what I would
be without Google Maps. Don't. Well, no, I know what
I would be. I don't know where I would be.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
If I was If I'm in London, I can really
get around. But I feel like ever since we moved
to the stage, I've become very relied reliant on maps and.

Speaker 2 (10:54):
Yes, so in conclusion, we both would need maps to
get anywhere. I'm assuming this is a question from you
to me? Do you not answer texts from me? Because
you're playing hard?

Speaker 1 (11:05):
So I told the team that sometimes you don't respond.
I have to explain this to our friends as well,
because our friends will be like upset with me, like
it is rightly okay, Like I'm I'm like, she doesn't
reply to her own husband for like seven messages, Like
I have to ask you the same question.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
You're quite You're someone who like is not You're not
so succinct though I am succinct, okay me honestly. But
I also think you know what I really do think,
and this is this is I'm gonna have a j
Setty moment now. I believe that we have this terrible
habit of wanting people to reply within like a day.
And I'm like, what if I want to reply within

(11:42):
a week?

Speaker 3 (11:42):
But if we live together.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
And ask me when you see me?

Speaker 1 (11:47):
Right?

Speaker 2 (11:47):
And I just think that there's this I don't. I
find that the reason I get distracted so fast is
because this need of oh my gosh, I have to
apply to this person part I have to reply to
this email within this amount of time. I have to,
and some times I just want the freedom. Like today,
I've replied back to an email three days later. Was
anybody hurt by it? No? Well, if they were, I'm sorry,
But all like text messages. Someone messaged me and I

(12:09):
remembered it this morning, so I was like, oh, four
days later, and I don't even feel like I should
have to apologize for a late reply because late is relative.
But yes, I am bad. I'm actually no, You've got
really good at it, thought so much better.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
I just find sometimes I need to make a decision.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Totally call me. I am not a messager.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
I am, and I'm the opposite. I'm a message meeting
a message. I don't know what's call me because I'll
be in meeting mema.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Like, if you call me, I will pick up and
we can talk. I'm more than happy to do that.
But because I have to type so much for work
and I'm on my phone all the time, for that,
communication via phone becomes so tedious to me, it's not fun.
So call me, beat me if you want to reach me.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
One of the times I do take calls, which I
do love, is when i'm driving, that's usually my time
to take a phone. It speeds up any journey.

Speaker 2 (12:55):
LA has such bad reception.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
Fair.

Speaker 2 (12:57):
What would each other's first line be if you meant
now at a party?

Speaker 3 (13:01):
Oh interesting?

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Mine would be something like, did you try the vegan tocos?

Speaker 3 (13:09):
Are you vegan?

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Are you vegan?

Speaker 3 (13:11):
Mind be?

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Mine would be we never met at a party, so
I don't also have that kind.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
I think maybe you say you'd probably get into like
a group convo with with people, and then you say
something intellectual, and then i'd have I'd ask you something.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
And oh so I'd use my intellect.

Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, I think you use your intellect. What's the first song?

Speaker 1 (13:30):
No? But do you know what, let's let's get into this. No, no, no,
I really feel for everyone who's like dating right now
and stuff.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
But it's really hard.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Like like you have to be interesting on your profile,
you have to be interesting on your pictures, Then you
have to be interesting on text, Then you have to
be interesting on a voice note, then you have to be.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
Interested in real you get the real life.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
It's because you're forced to have to be interesting at
every tiny point of connection.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
No, sometimes I just wanted to not talk and just
be silent. You can't do that on dates. You can't
just be yourself. You always feel like you have to.
You have to show up as a really excitable, interesting
person with a lot that you do in life. What's
your screen time?

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Oh my gosh, well tell me yours later.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
I don't even want to tell you.

Speaker 3 (14:19):
Tell me.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
Seven hours thirty minutes.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
How mankey senses during the workday.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
Let's see what it shou see what it is though.
Most used WhatsApp, so like yesterday was WhatsApp for three hours.
That's messaging in court. Yeah, Instagram for one hour ten
not bad. Internet surfing for one hour, note section forty
two minutes. Because I write that, I write your quotes,
I write my quotes on there, write my little reminders, reflections,

(14:47):
Google maps thirty minutes, messages twenty six minutes, and Google
calendar twenty three minutes.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
That's too bad.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
Honestly, that's probably one of my Google mail twenty minutes.
I was writing back to that one email. Great, if
our relationship had a theme song, what would it be?

Speaker 3 (15:02):
Pop star?

Speaker 2 (15:03):
Yeah, pop star? No doctor? Yeah, I'd go with that.
I ask, great, do you have a gig about me?

Speaker 4 (15:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (15:15):
Literally? I think it used to be when you used
to run late.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Okay, tell you mine? Mine is because you know you
have this like photographic memory. I don't you remember everything?
Sometimes even if I know I'm in the right, I
questioned myself. I am, though, there are sometimes where you
actually get it wrong.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
I don't you do?

Speaker 2 (15:34):
And this this is my egg, this part.

Speaker 3 (15:37):
You're the stubborn one.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
I don't get anything.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
No, you're I do get stuff wrong. I make you
the first to say I'm sorry or first.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
Got something wrong. You're the stubborn one. Your stubborn.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
Okay, great, it's gonna start all right.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
So we're here, made it, made it and you had
that conversation with you.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
Me too. Really, I'm really excited to get a little bever.

Speaker 3 (16:01):
And for the challenge. I am.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
Are you ready?

Speaker 1 (16:05):
Are you?

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (16:06):
Come on, let's go. Let's go get some food. Come
make me something. It's Friday. I need some I need
a break. Okay, I don't open this. Okay, amazing, you're
not opening my door for me now?

Speaker 1 (16:22):
Oh sorry, see exactly, show you visit. Ye.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Yeah, let's go.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
Hey guys, it's Jay Sheddy here. And I couldn't be
more excited to share this exciting news you asked, we
delivered Junie Sparkling Tea with Adaptero gens made by my
wife and I are now available in all Sprout locations
across the country. Junie is the perfect midday pick me up.
With only one third of the caffeine found in brood

(16:55):

(17:15):

to find the closest location near you.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
That was fun here.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
You're hungry, I'm gonna go home, and I'm gonna go
home and make lunch for you. How does it feel
when someone makes your own food for you?

Speaker 2 (17:33):
Honestly great, because you know what the what the amazing
thing about cooking and recipes is that you can like
when I cook my mum's food, I can literally cook
the same thing with the same recipe and it will
never taste the same.

Speaker 3 (17:52):
In a good way.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
In a great way. Like everything is so different.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
So when I made your recipe, it will have its
own flavor. Yeah, because it will be made with love
for you.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
Yeah, we'll just be using different hands, different amounts. Like
even if you're measuring things out, somehow things always taste different.
That's what's so amazing about food. Right, I'm just not
a person to speak to when I'm not fed. I
don't know whether you're like that.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Is that how you feel right now?

Speaker 2 (18:15):
That's all I feel right now.

Speaker 3 (18:16):
I get what you're saying, though I get quite hungry
as well. Do you You.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Do you don't get I get upset, upset, I get agitatedated, agitated.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
So what do we do? What do I do when
you're agitated?

Speaker 2 (18:33):
Ideally not talk to me, but we can't do that.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Right now because we're recording.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
Keep this going. What do you do to keep yourself like?
Because you're someone who expends so much energy during the day,
I feel like you're probably one of the most what's
like the word for a person who uses their time
really well organized? No, no, no, you are one of
the most productive people that I know, and you really

(18:59):
don't you know, you're not a time waster. You really
use your energy and your time so efficiently. But I
always wonder, and I feel like I can asked this
a lot, like how do you manage to maintain that
energy level throughout the day?

Speaker 3 (19:13):
I don't. There are times when I feel tired.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
But secondary part of to that question is when you do,
like right now, I feel like I just want to
get into bed and do nothing for the rest of
the day. But like, one can't do that often, So
what would one do if one was feeling that way?
And actually, you know, how do you keep motivated and
then pick your energy back up?

Speaker 1 (19:34):
I think, first of all, I do love what I do,
and I really and I'm really grateful to get to
do what I do. I feel like I appreciate that
I get to do what I love every day, and
I don't take that for granted.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
I've noticed that about you. You really, even if you
are feeling that way, you self soothe a lot in
the sense that you you self talk to motivate your
like you don't really rely on other people to.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
Bring you no, you give me no.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
But what I'm saying is you find ways. I know,
even when you're feeling tired, you're like, no, you know,
I may be tired, but this is something that I
love doing. Or you're constantly talking to yourself in a
positive language to motivate yourself or energize yourself. And I've
noticed that about you, where even if you are tired,
and even if you're yeah, I'm exhausted, but I've had

(20:21):
like the best week and it's been so productive and
I got this done, and what an amazing thing to
be able to do this or this. And so I've
noticed that with you where even and so I think
that language really makes a difference.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
To how Yeah, And I always say to myself, I
am tired, so I'm accepting and then and then I
add an action to solve that. So I am tired
and I'll go to.

Speaker 2 (20:45):
Sleep tonight, I'll sleep.

Speaker 3 (20:47):
Yeah, I'll go to do it tonight.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
Or I am tired and tomorrow I'm going to sleep
on the plane, so I've got to fly tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
It's always telling you, you know what it is. It's
your body reacts to how you're feeling and what you're
saying to it.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
Yeah, and you're not lying to you. You can't just be like, oh,
I feel I feel energized.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Because it knows you like you know, but it's one
of those things where you are almost giving it that hope,
and that's something to look forward to where it's like,
let's just put in that last amount of effort and
then just know that I also know you are struggling,
and I know that this is happening in my in
your in my body. So I'm telling you body that
we are going to do this and it's gonna it's

(21:23):
gonna make us feel better.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
And also planning recoup, right, like I know that like
last weekend when you planned a little spar day for us, Yeah,
like I was looking forward to that the whole week.
We knew we had a tough couple of weeks before that,
and now I know I've got another quite intense like
seven days ahead and then I'm hoping to have a
bit of a couple of days of rest, and so
I think it's also balancing that out and saying, Okay,

(21:46):
I know I've got a busy period, When am I
going to plan some deep rest rather than going okay,
I'm just going to rely on that energy.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
I think people, and by people, I mean people like me,
we live moment to moment rather then like there's a
lot of people, and I'm not saying whether that's good
or bad, but there are people who live moment to
moment and react according to how they're feeling in the moment,
and then there are people who and I think there's
a training element to it, where you know, you can't

(22:14):
always act on how you're feeling, because often how you're
feeling may not be may not be the right way
to do what you need to do. Like I feel
a certain way right now, but do I have things
to do and do I need to get them done? Yes?
Whereas if I went with how I was feeling and
I didn't train myself to push through that, sometimes I
wouldn't be able to get done what I need to do.

(22:35):
So I think it takes an element of training. I
think that's every single time you're feeling that way, having
that talk and pushing yourself to do.

Speaker 3 (22:41):
Yeah, that's really smart. Solved it. What was that last
question on the page?

Speaker 2 (22:47):
It was what kind of party person are you?

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Oh? Introvert extrovert?

Speaker 2 (22:51):
What was It was kind of like the so I
know I and the person yawning at the party, but
also the person who I find one person to talk
to the whole night usually stick with that person. No,
you're like a full on social butterfly. I'm not a
going to get you out of a party.

Speaker 1 (23:12):
I find Jeremy at any party. No, No, this is true.
When Humble lived here, I would find Humble Jeremy at
any party and we would sit and have a philosophical
conversation and half that's fact, that's fact, that's fact. As
umbl Jeremy the person is that stubbornness coming out in you.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
I know why.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
I know because I'm always waiting by the door waiting.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
That's never happened in a million years.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Are you joking?

Speaker 3 (23:34):
Are in one place that I'm going to ask all my.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Friends, all of our friends tonight when we see them.
What usually happens at the end of the night. It's
you talking to everybody saying bye for about.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
Yea because they guess at our home, or.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
About you talking to people and I'm waiting to go
to the next shop and you're just having a You
just you just chatter. You are definitely know you are
you love socialized.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
You know what though, we went to some really beautiful
things lately, so we were really fortunate to go to
Kristen Bell was being honored by UN Women and for
the World Peace and it was a gala, the first
ever gala. It was absolutely incredible. I think we were
both moved by Sharon Stone.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Who's Winstone gives such an incredible She talked about shared
so much that I just didn't know about. And you know,
one thing that's made me that that situation made me
think it was about there was some women who are,
you know, advocating for a lot of peace around the world,
and this was a woman that came from Afghanistan and
she was talking about the amount that's happening in Afghanistan,

(24:38):
and it made me realize that there is so much
happening around the world that we don't hear about, and
what makes it to us is based on what the
media decides to show us. And I find that so
interesting because when I then was thinking about other things
that I've heard through my friends or you know, depending
on where you're from originally, you may hear more to
do with that country, right, And so I was thinking

(25:00):
about the other areas of the world that we just
don't hear about, and there is so much happening around
the world that we just don't know.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
About, and we can't even and we can't.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
It's so difficult, and it's obviously what's close to you
and what's meaningful, but it is so interesting that we
do kind of live in our own bubble, even though
you think we have so much access to other parts
of the world. Like they were talking about what's happening
in Afghanistan and how you know, yeah, refugee camps and
how the women there are treated and they're not allowed

(25:30):
to go out into even walk by themselves on the street,
they're not allowed education. There's so much.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Yeah, I was really blown away. I think we were
both blown away by when Sharon Stone was saying that
the average refugee spends eleven years in a refugee camp
and there's no access to toilets and showers for that
much time.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
Yeah, you know what. I was thinking about this, and
my parents were in refugee camps. Well my mum was
for a long time, so was my dad for years
of their teenage life, and they're refugee camps. My mum
was saying was actually it was in London. It was
in Scotland, sorry, And they were saying they did have
those facilities there, but I think maybe in different parts

(26:09):
of the world they didn't, but I think it's more
collective showers, collective toilets, and you just think about how
different people's lives can be. Like my parents went through
that for their teenagers, they spent it in refugee camps.
They see it as a place that saved their life.
Like they see the refugee camps as we were able

(26:30):
to leave an unsafe place.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
To come and because they were able to get out.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
Yeah, exactly, and so they were so grateful to even
have that someone that actually took them in and given
that opportunity to start over and start a new life.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah. And then the other event we went to that
I think was really beautiful and special this week was
the celebration event for Clarence and Jackie Avon. Oh Yeah,
that was just spectacular, so so grateful. We both were
invited by Nicole Avan to celebrate her parents, and even
though we didn't know her parents, I define like that. Yeah,

(27:06):
it was such a beautifully organized event. I felt so
moved and touched because I walked away going, Wow, if
only I could even try to serve my community and
live in the way her parents did like to have that.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
Much impact, And whether it's impact online, offline, the people
closest to the people that you meet in a shop,
whatever it is to have that effect where people are
so touched by who you are as a person and
how you've gone above and beyond for them. I think
it was incredible. The number of people in so many
different areas, so many different walks of life. I was

(27:45):
blown away. It was incredible.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah, it was unbelievable to had that experience and just yeah,
just to hear about how, yeah, how someone for that
many years as we could continue to support and serve
their community. I know.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
I feel like it was from his pretty much like
teenage years or both their teenage years, all the way
up till ninety. Yeah, and still there were people who
had met him at ninety and were sharing how much
even within a couple of months they had completely changed their.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
Perspectivele Yeah, it was really really special. Yeah, yea, it
was incredible. And then obviously we got to watch this
beautiful performance by Stevie Wonder, which I thought was oh.

Speaker 2 (28:31):
My god, literally made me cry. What's a legendary human?
And then to be able to I think more than
anybody that I've seen in real life, and we went
to Beyonce's concert. We went to so many things, but
I don't know there's something for me. I've got a
personal kind of nostalgia with Stevie Wonder. It was playing
my day. I used to play all the time in
the car when I was growing up and just an amazing,

(28:55):
amazing artist.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yeah, really fun events. So those are two social events.
You didn't have to drag me out.

Speaker 3 (29:01):
I'll play.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
And I really really love attending these events. And I
almost remind you of humanity. Like, I walked away in
different ways. One was what we can do to serve,
what we can do to help. The other one about
how we can celebrate humans as well. I felt I
walked away thinking, how do I want to celebrate my parents?

Speaker 2 (29:19):
So?

Speaker 1 (29:20):
How do I want to celebrate what they gave me?

Speaker 2 (29:22):
Yeah, it made me walk away thinking because there were
so many amazing stories that they were telling, And it
made me walk away thinking, is there's these amazing games
you can buy and journals that you ask your parents
to fill in and to talk about their life before
you and even their life throughout you. But it's a

(29:42):
year long journal. I don't know what it's called, but
I'm going to try and find it again. I saw
it and I asked questions that you would never normally
ask your parents, and I realized, I want to and
I want to go back and got all these pictures
and things from when they were younger, to actually ask
the stories behind the pictures and write them down in
the album. Because there's one thing about having like footage
of and being like, oh, this is a nice picture,

(30:04):
but when you have the depth in the story behind
it, it makes it so much more meaningful. So I'm going
to do that with my grandma and my parents. I
was going to tell you to do that with your mom.

Speaker 3 (30:11):
Remember when you tried to interview your grandma.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
I did try to interview my grandma. I wish there
was a way of doing it where she doesn't realize.
My grandma gets into like perform a mode when the
camera's out, which she gets really serious. But I still
think I learned so much.

Speaker 3 (30:24):
From You need to do it in a way when
it's you're just sitting in a room.

Speaker 2 (30:28):
But I do think it's important. I follow this page
on Instagram that's all about the questions you should ask
your parents. Oh my God, look this God does hand gestures.
What is like to change things on the screen. Is
I've seen that on BMW's I Forgot you can change
songs and stuff like this.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
Okay, but what are you doing right now?

Speaker 2 (30:48):
That's the hand Just I don't know what I'm doing
right now, but that'll be like if a song is playing. Yeah,
I think it's so nice getting to know your parents
before you to be able to understand them and how
they are with you now. I definitely want to invest
time in doing that.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
Yeah, definitely.

Speaker 1 (31:04):
It was really beautiful, really really special, and her book
is amazing. It's called I Think You'll Be Happy. It's
really really special. It's really grateful to have her as
a guest on the podcast. I was going to say
my sister's wedding was one of those times that I
feel like I really got to celebrate her, and I
think it's so interesting. You get very few opportunities to

(31:25):
celebrate the people that you love, and you almost have
to take all of them and create.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
More because people don't take them.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
It's time to celebrate their own lives, and we don't
take time to celebrate the people's people's lives that we love.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Yeah, so true that days are a good opportunity to
do that if you do it properly. Yeah, so who
were you wearing?

Speaker 1 (31:48):
Okay, hello about you have energy for stuff like that. Okay, Now,
I was just thinking that my sister's wedding was honestly
just so much fun, talking about spending time with family
and talking about doing amazing things. And my sister had
five events across seven days proper India, with an average

(32:09):
attendance of over three hundred people at every single event.

Speaker 2 (32:13):
Small.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
It was a small Indian wedding, but it was insane
and I was more run down from her wedding than
I was from my tour. And I think the reason
is because it was so emotional as well. I must crying, Yeah,
I must have cried, like just.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Crying every day, every day, every hour, the whole ceremony,
crying as well. He looked across I would look across
him and he be crying, and then naturally when people cry,
I cry, obviously. I just also love their relationship. It's
so sweet. It's one of the sweetest brother sister relationships
I've ever come across. And there was one time where
he turned to me and he just stopped crying and

(32:50):
then sending look, I was crying again. He looks at
me and he goes. She was saying her vows, she's
so well spoken. I was like, okay, great, yeah, she's
she did really good speeches, like she went to elocution
classes when she so it was just really he was
welling up at her speaking so beautifully. I think she
said like one line.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
But you were crying as well.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Of course I was crying. We love her. She just yeah,
she's your kid.

Speaker 3 (33:16):
It was really cute. It was really cute. And then
I cried throughout my whole speech.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
Cry through the whole speech, lumbering away.

Speaker 3 (33:23):
It was really sweet, though, I don't think do you
know what it was?

Speaker 2 (33:26):
Actually? This? This speech was half sweet and half sassy.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
Yeah, the first half was legendary.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
First half. Normally, you know in speeches people have a
bit of banter. Jade took it all the way bantering it.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
It was a full on comedy set.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
It was who knew you were funny? I did?

Speaker 3 (33:43):
You did?

Speaker 1 (33:44):
I think what it was right about the wedding was
I actually realized just how much my sister loves me,
and I realized how much I love her, Like it
was like that was what I was feeling.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
You how you didn't know how much your sister loved you.
You are literally the pick to me, like you just
everything to her. There is nothing you could do wrong
in her eyes, and even if you do, she's forgiven
it within like five seconds.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
Well, I think it's also you know what it is.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
Especially knows how much you love her.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
That's why I think, because there far I think sometimes
I have to put some of my feelings aside to
get on with my focus and my drive, and there's
an element of where I have to I don't get
to express those emotions all year around, but I am
carrying them internally, and then they all come out in

(34:33):
that moment because I don't you know, I don't get
to see my sister every week. I don't get to
talk to her all the time, and when I do,
even I've never found phone conversations to be as fulfilling
and as deep as being in person. And so I
feel like I carried that love around and then it
was all I had to come out. You were so wonderful.
You helped her with the wedding so much. She was
so grateful to you, and you did so much for

(34:54):
the wedding. It was amazing, and she did an amazing
job planning an epic wedding. I was like, I don't
know how someone plans by events in seven days so
much insane?

Speaker 2 (35:05):
Is that the sun of the car sounds like a
space ship.

Speaker 3 (35:07):
It feels like a space ship.

Speaker 2 (35:12):
To exactly, I'm so hungry.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
I know you're excited for some Mexican rice.

Speaker 2 (35:22):

Are you excited for some stuffed pepper. Are you excited
for some cabbage you expected? Excited for some cilentro?

Speaker 2 (35:33):

some vegan eggs? Are you excited for some sour cream?

the store and.

I went to the store and I bought beans.

goes where it's soft and green and vulnerable.
