Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hi, I'm Kate ber Lance, I'm Jacqueline Novak. And this
is poog, an ongoing conversation about wellness between two obsessive.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Friends, two untamable intellects. This is our hobby, this is
our hell.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
This is our naked desire for free products.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
This is poog.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Today's topics looselie speaking, a bumper sticker, a coaster, a title.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Hello, hi Yah.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
When you sigh like that, do you get a response
from others like what's wrong or anything like that?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Uh? I mean, obviously I'm asking because I do. Yeah,
like I'm trying to think of the lots wrong sidelight
that I've got plenty wrong, but right.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I always feel like, no, that's the first time I
had breathed in five minutes. You should be applauding me.
I was suffering in the five minutes before the SI.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Yeah. I don't know if if I'm a big sire.
Good morning, Uh, good morning, it's good morning, bog. In
a couple of weeks, which is funny, we last spoke
the day after Things Giving, I believe, I mean, you
and I of course have spoken offline, but.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Tons tons tons. I felt bad for the listeners at times. Yeah,
you know, almost like God, they'd love this. Yeah, I know,
they beat this up. It's really interesting when you're crying,
like crying, where did the tears come from?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Well, that's the question.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
And how do they never end?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Well?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
I told you the.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Other day, drink water, right, Okay, I mean that's water.
So you're losing water, you're crying all day crazy? Yeah,
you got it.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
I did yesterday drink a big LM and T element
electrolyte drink, which, by the light, where are they we
need the powdering? Okay, so but I did drink some
electrolytes for that reason.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
I had electrolytes yesterday.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
They were Vega, you know Vega, And I read Vega's
book years ago.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
That's not his name, but you know.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
And I've really taken with it about energy and the electrolytes.
It said I decided to pour some to actually it
said mid workout, and I was like, let's try it
during my tracy and it said pour into ice cold water.
Now what does that mean to you? And why do
(02:40):
you think that's essential? Why are they saying that? And
they were saying that in the instructions.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I have no idea, and that's very you know, anti
Aire Veda, I don't understand why you'd want it to
be cold.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
The only thing I could think was that they don't
want the salts or whatever to dissolve.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Like I'm confused by that. We'll look into that elementating
that we never will. But yeah, let's reach out to them.
I'm gonna say, oh, but I had a moment that
I wanted to I think I texted you about but
I don't know, but I was. It's interesting when you're
driving and crying because you're like anyway, I was driving
and crying and I saw this bumper and it pulled
(03:23):
in front of his car, and the bumper sticker said,
take a deep breath, Comma, you've got this baby, And
to my horror, I looked at it. I took a
deep breath and I excelled, and I was like, like,
I actually did it, and that's what you Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
No, it's like when you were healed by Matthew McConaughey.
He hey, oh yeah, I gotta you know, red lash
and line one must not be too good for being
healed by a bumper sticker A coaster button. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
For a gift or a celebrities book totally.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
You know, I've been healed by a title. I mean
that's a little ever healed by a title of a book.
Don't need to read it.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Oh well, to fear and do it.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Anyway. My mom used to say that to me when
I was little. It's so sweet, and.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
It made the woman you are.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Today, and it made the woman that's I. Well, I've
also been I think when I'm I'm oh, I almost
forgot about this. So I'm going to New York in
a few days, going to be doing my show. I
also want to I'm sorry forgive me Jacka, but I
want to plug a poog. This is for the poog hags.
This is a discount code for Christmas Eve and New
Year's Eve shows. Yes, mac Kate, m A c ka
(04:56):
t E is going to get you twenty five percent
off those holidays. Again, that's m a c ka t
E all caps, the twenty five percent off, just just
the holiday shows. But got at two o'clock at six pm. Okay, anyway,
after this run anyway, this little gift that I'm gonna
give myself is I want to finally go to Esselon
and big sir, Oh, you're invited. I immediately went from
(05:19):
solar retreat to you also being there, but I want
to do it. It's it's ostrom time, you know, I
want like, I just want, not that it's an ostrom
but right, but I think I are you at all
intrigued by a silent meditation or like by by a
silent retreat?
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Literally couldn't be more.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
I have been waiting also to silent retreat like it's
because we'll imagine the eye contact. Oh yeah, well, because
the silent retreat. This is where I struggle. No writing,
I believe some of them where I struggle too, Well,
that depends I think I would have to be able
to write and read.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Well, let me ask you this. Are they all like that?
Are you? Are they all no?
Speaker 3 (06:05):
No?
Speaker 4 (06:05):
No to write?
Speaker 3 (06:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
That that was almost a thought that wasn't related to
the essulin thing. I I just was because I have
I've had friends that have gone on silent retreats and
you know, they're like, yeah, Dave four is really challenging.
I'm like, yeah, I can't do that. I don't know
if that's is that what I really need? Is that
the medicine I really need?
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah, but we'll see, we'll see. I could do the
silence with the others. Yeah, okay, you and me are
both addicted to thinking right, Yeah, to figuring it out
and the belief of following the thought through and that
and that it can be figured out and I can
find peace, right, and then.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
It's a sickness.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Yeah, we were talking about because I was saying you
the other day about my spiritual dollar signs in the
eyes like a cartoon character.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Said, you said this, and I want you to say
it for the listeners because it was so brilliant to me.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Thank you. And we're similar and this is where we're.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
It's like when you have a friend that you share
a particular kind of compulsion with, like it's kind of
an incredible right and you know, dangerous, Like I don't know,
I don't know's I actually think.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
No, I think.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
I think it's good.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I think because when the other one's in the throes
of it, the second figure can be the witness.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
And you know, we can, you can play the role
of witness.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
But like I think, you and me use our minds right,
and we go we can figure this out, we can
find a way through this, We figure out a way
to think about this. It's big for me and figure
out a way to think about this. And I'm going,
what is this compulsion about? And it's about no pain.
It's about I can figure out a way think about
the soul experisonal pain, so I won't have to have
the bad feeling.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
And it's like it's like you don't even remember anymore
the possibility that having the feeling is survivable. Yeah, like
and I'm still not convinced it is. And so it's
it's like a cartoon character with dollar signs into the eyes.
It's like, wait, I got an idea, I can have
(07:59):
it all.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Yeah, yeah, or even it becomes a mushrooms the whole
time thing of like oh my god. Yeah, the avoiding pain,
you know, we all do it. But there's also a
clarity that comes with like the rawness of just pain.
That actually clarity is not the word, just the to
be refined by the fires of suffering, as James Hollis
(08:21):
would say, mm. But speaking of young, of course, well
that you know, can't I get around it? I mean
that's I know, and.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, I know, I know young,
I know yeah yeah, yeah, yeah I know.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
And then like it's like a sneak like I'm gonna sneak.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
I'm gonna sneak around the pain. Yeah, yeah, nope, but wait,
what were you?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
There was something?
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Oh the sound and silent retreat.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
I think the harder part would be.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
To me.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Losing thoughts, like to not build a journal, oh silent.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Fine.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
If I was able to journal, then conversation with myself
all day fine, great, But the no journal.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Being unallowed to capture thoughts terrifies me, and therein lies
the ultimate medicine. Probably, well for sure, Oh god. Well,
I mean I've been on my own retreat in the
sense that I'm clocking in now at over a month
of essentially no social media at all, and I shall say,
(09:24):
you know, I never So this is the hell of
the times, right when you talk about like I'm trying
to be on my phone, like it's like it's instantly
it feels embarrassing. I'm like, yes, we all know, like
we're all you know, the phones are bad, and I
know I've talked about it makes me sick or it
just makes me self conscious instantly. But I am clocking
in over a month in a different way, and I
think I might actually never go back this time. And
(09:44):
when I say, never go back. I'm still gonna have
social media accounts. You know. I logged on to post
something I had to post, but I got out, And
I actually think I used to still have the anxiety
of missing things on there. You know a couple of
those those social interactions that you know, you meet someone
on there that you're like their work, and the next
thing you know, you're at dinner and it's a lifelong frint,
(10:07):
you know something like that. Yeah, yeah, and I'm over
that now and I'm like, oh, I'm actually willing to
sacrifice whatever could have been on there.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Yes, well, it's like the thing that my mother would
say to me, and I'm pretty sure my aunt would
also say to my cousin, and therefore I think it
came from the grandmother. But it was just like anytime
there was a thing that you might be going to
and then like deciding you weren't going to be going
to it.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
It was like, but your.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Husband could be there, you could meet your husband there, okay,
and then the terror terror you run off to the
to the whatever the pot luck.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Yeah, that's really funny. And you can hear me even
I'm being in articulate and kind of fumbling here because
I do feel exhausted with my own pontification on this
matter over the poo years. But I swear to God
it's different this time. And I think I think I'm
just because honestly, and I'll say it, something that used
(11:07):
to bum me out was I'm misreading the poog going
into the poog dms and have send beautiful messages and
it's encouraging or it's nice to check in with, but
I ultimately can't still send them. But I ultimately just
can't erase myself every day through interacting with Instagram. Yeah,
(11:29):
and talk about avoiding pain, talk about avoiding pain. The
phone stuff is might as well be a bottle of
gin on well or a fucking syringe filled with heroin.
It's like, actually, it's response.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
He started with syringe full of heroin, which is like
what I should have heard, and I heard syringe full
of hair and I was like wow.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
I was like, yeah, that sounds horrible.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Well, I have these fantasies of clearing my phone of
everything but healing apps okay yea and nutrients, so like
I open it up and it's like, because I do this,
sometimes I open up the phone and I go, wait,
what's the good stuff on here? Like, I'm like, okay,
books right, and I opened the books app. It's like,
(12:18):
what if my phone wasn't just a literal black hole?
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Right? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:23):
That I carry with me to siphon my own energy
out of myself.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Yea, why exactly? Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
I keep this with me because I can't hold my
entire soul's energy in my body because I'm too afraid of.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
The light I carry you.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
So I keep this just to sort of be able
to piss in a bag spiritually.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yeah, no more, it's an emergency.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Had an interesting dinner with you at Jar, lovely dinner
with you at Jar.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Oh yeah, let's talk about that. So to my excitement,
said A Jacula, I'm going to be in your area.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
It's good.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Jar got the reservation. So okay, here's a detail. I
didn't tell you. The reservation was early. It was I
think six o'clock. Around five point thirty, I got a
call from Jar. I saw my phone lighting up its
jar and I answered, and they go, Hi, we just
wanted to confirm your reservation. Very unusual to confirm a
reservation half an hour before, do you know what I mean?
It does so in the morning. They want to make
(13:20):
sure we're coming so they can get the cake ready
or whatever. Like I was like, they want to make
sure we're really coming before they get the champagne tower together.
I picked jacline up. We get to Jar.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Wait we checked, yoh, pick me up.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I'm in a blue blaze amazing Yeah, and a special broach.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, you look really polished. I'm not polished, but I'm
I'm kind of accepting that and loving that. And then
we arrived there, I searched.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
I said, wait, I'm slowing us down and slowing us down,
so I want to get more of set up.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
I said to Chris.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I got a shower and I got to wear something
good for quote our big night at Jar.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Yeah, I go, they know we're coming.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
I mean I you have texted, you know with the chef.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Had a lovely interaction all of that. I was like,
Jacquel and I are coming. She God bless her was
out of town. I was like, okay, well she knows
that we're coming. I was like, the bell has been
rung at Jar headquarters and we're coming in. So you
pick me up like gratty feelings. I love getting into
your car. I gave you a gift. You can get
(14:43):
to eli there. Oh yeah, she sure did. But then
we get there check in. I searched the host's as
upon check in for something, and then because the reservation whatever,
we get to our table.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
So so I will say this, I I wasn't really expecting anything.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I mean, I mean, in one sense.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Okay, speak for your smell.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
Yeah, now you know what it was.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
I was almost more convinced that like, like it was
gonna be full of of hags.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Okay, Oh well, that's what was funny is that Jack
and I we haven't been in a jar together in
a long time. And so every table of like youngish women,
like anyone that like, I looked at them being like, well,
they're here because of poop. And even I had a
couple of trips to the bathroom where I felt I
was like hello, like I was almost searching the faces
(15:39):
of some of the patriots, like.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
My eyes were roving at the bar.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I was like, oh, I was like, oh, I feel
like I feel like I better turn my head for it.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
The natural human response of if someone walks by you,
you just look at them, right, So I took the
natural human response of anyone looking at me as I,
you know, wushed past them as a kind of a
silent poog, kind of a silent understanding that we're all
here for po okay.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
All the way to the bathroom, I go, I think
I wished a little too fast. Try to slow it
down on the return, to give them a chance to
confirm that, in.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Fact, it was poop. Yah, it was it was it
was me.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I I go, well, Kate's the you know, because we
joke about I've never been recognized for poog.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Okay, it's not, by the way. I'll just say the
other day someone was like, oh, I wasn't sure if
you were Jacqueline or Kate. That's so funny. I thought
it was Jacquelin. But it's you. That's just great, Okay.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
When the second they heard their voice, I mean your voice.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I don't know, they just they came up and like, oh,
I thought maybe it was Jacqueline. Okay, wait, so keep going.
I love that we're slowing it down. Well, I always
want to slow it down.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
So I think I was so I'd forgotten kind of
the poog element, okay, because I was so excited to
be in your company and excited for dinner and whatever.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
That that's kind of what happen.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
That's why I was like, because I didn't feel this intense,
like I wasn't already scanning for whatever. I was really
kind of bubbling over with excitement. So I kept forgetting.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
But you kept remembering that we have a podcast called
Pooh when we talk about jar Is that what you mean?
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Yes, Like so I mean wondering whether everyone's in on
the joke or no one's in on the joke is
one of the strangest places to live the joke, our presence,
like the joke being like we all know us and
this restaurant is all the time, right. Yeah, So like
(17:36):
when I I felt like I was performing a little
bit for the waiter, like, oh, give them something.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Oh well, I said something. Actually I can't move, I said,
this was so embarrassing. So really this is actually really
dick lasse. So we're there, this this server who I
who we have not had before, is talking about the
specials or a couple of specials things we've had that,
you know, a couple of little add ons way, oh
wait know that, And then I even did a whole
(18:02):
thing of on the menu. I was like, oh, well,
there's actually huge news and this does need this actually
has to go straight to jar corporate. A hag did
inform and it is in fact true. The Leachy Teenie
is gone off the menu. I repeat, the Leachy teenis
off the menu. So I came in with that information
noticed its absence on the cocktail menu. Was devastated. He
was like, yeah, no, it's gone. Like maybe we'd be back,
(18:23):
but like it's off the menu. And then I'm looking
at the main menu and there's a burger on there,
and I go, have I lost my mind? Or is
there never? Is there always a burger on the menu.
I've never seen that, And he was like, oh yeah,
that like can come on and off, and I went
something something oh. And then then I said, we know
the chef. I maybe even said Suzanne, you did I
(18:43):
think I said we know Suzanne. To be clear, who
is this chef? I was like, well, we know Suzanne. Okay,
it never matter, just some texts, some lovely texts. I
threw that in his face, unfazed, and I go, okay,
this gave us nothing. And so in my mind also
I'm like, he is so starstruck. You can't you even
(19:04):
imagine that it's us? So we take a long time
with the menu. We put it in an order.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
You know.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
The meal was gorgeous. Of course, the food was great.
There's more Wait, what what did I forget? Okay?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
So so one, first of all, you doing this this
sort of performance of one the leechy Mutini's gone why
and asking why and him saying sometimes we change it up.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
I actually had a moment, this was my derangement where
I thought, did they take it off because they want
to be a step ahead? Like we've talked about the
Leachi Martini so much that now it's like hack them
to have it. No, not flying on the shelves, like
almost like okay, now that that's like a thing and
everyone's asking for.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
It, we have to we have to abandon it. Can't
just play the hits. That's so funn I just had
the move forward. I just had the fantasy of the
leachy tiniy had to take off because everyone was listening
to Poop coming and ordering it, and they were like,
we can't. The supply chain is of course, as we know,
been fractured and they can't keep up with the supply.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
And only the demand based Yet again, next next the
burger thing was fascinating to me because it was like,
I don't know, were you offended by its presence, like
like this is no.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
I was excited. I was shocked because okay, cheeseburger is
one of my favorite foods, and so the thought because
when I go to drag at a steak, but it's
like I just couldn't imagine that I had ever my
eyes had ever seen Burger on that menu, Like how
could I forgot? Oh I did get the pot roast
on this night and it was delicious, but continue which
we both got last time.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
It was delicious, So I had a moment now that
this is like pristine. So we had loved the tomato
onion salad the heirlooms last time we were there. Of course,
tomato is my favorite, one of my favorite things in
the world. Take it in any form. This is like
primo you to me. Okay, So I'm like, but I'm
(21:06):
thinking about the tomato salad and and You're like, oh, well,
I just I'm always shocked to see a tomato salad
on a menu in November.
Speaker 4 (21:15):
I mean when tomatoes are out of season.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yeah, right right, And I'm humiliated, Okay, obviously because I'm
tomato all ears, whether it's red as a cherry or
white as a web browser. Okay, never forgot when Kate
identify a tomatoes white is a web browser? Okay, it
(21:40):
holds imagine that.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Nerve food review, how cruel.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
So so I'm like, I'm arguing, what can I just want?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I'm interjecting with because I described again to insult the
chef at that restaurant in Scotland, I described the tomato
as being white as a web browser. And then I
was reading a really vicious takedown of a play in
the New York Times and this person was crucifying this
one production in a way that I was like, really,
but it was like, you know, of course like certain
(22:13):
things like this actor is amazing, whatever, but like crucifying
the production design and everything, and they go something something
the lighting design by full name would make a rat clap.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Okay, see this is.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
This is the problem.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
And I was like, that's journalism.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
I mean that is hysterical.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Okay, that is the maybe laugh out loud and I
screen crapped it. I was like, that is so that
like the anger and that which I almost thoughts, what
is that like a theater phrase that I've never heard,
because I don't know the world the theater like it's
so good, like it would make a rat clap. That's okay,
made me laugh out loud.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
Let's take a second with this before we return to
our meal.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
So what I find so devastating on that is it
is there is an art, there is this person has
an ability with words, with imagery, with wit. Okay, I'm
sorry they're using it in service of taking down another
piece of art. When when someone who's able to come
up with would make a rat clap should hang it
(23:22):
up and go make a play.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
I just I know.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Criticism, Okay, I know, but I also don't know. I
also think it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah, it's wrong. Okay, I hear you. Well, let's continue
back to the meal. Okay. So the tomatoes rot a season.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah, so I start defending my honor, going, well, Kate,
I mean, but of course I assume that a restaurant.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Like this, And I said, well, that's on the menu,
they're not going to serve it. If it's on the menu,
then they've got the tomatoes somehow, and they're doing it.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I started arguing that maybe they had like climate controlled
like tomato factory up back yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
So I'm struggling with wanting it the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
And then I even like as though the waiter would
be a shame for me if I ordered something that's
on the menu. I felt the need to ask him,
so tomatoes in November. It was as if how quickly, okay,
the student stole the countenance of the teacher.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
You, yeah, how quickly? This is how people hurt each other. Right.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
I felt a shame for thinking it was safe to
order a tomato in November. And I turned to the
waiter and go, I will, now, I will since it
a shame you for having it on the menu, while
hoping that he convinces me that I can still get
it whatever, and he does. We put together an order.
We're a little worried it's not enough food, and you.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Say what did I say? What did I say?
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Can I say I don't know? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, I say I don't remember, okay, okay, And then you.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Were like, whatever, it's an actress meal. It's an actress's meal.
Oh I forgot no, no, sorry, I forgot about it's
actress's order. I wasn't like starving either, That's the thing.
My appetite was, like, I was like, I don't know
how much I can even eat tonight. Yeah yeah, I well,
then also, you know what I thought? What I was
I can't remember even say this to Jacqueline. In my mind,
I went, they're going to send.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
An app or two.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
In my mind, I go, let's put this order in.
They're going to send over an app.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
I think it wasn't just in your mind. I think
I recall you saying, well, dessert's coming. Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
I was like I was like, they're gonna get a tower, yeah,
a profederal on this table. Yeah. So then we eat
the meal. It's great, as always delicious, and then eventually
it's check time. We're anticipating the check being dropped. We
(26:01):
start talking.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
About Now we start talking about I was shocked, okay
that you thought there would be anything.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Okay, you weren't shocked. You didn't know. I was hoping.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yeah, I was hoping when you're like round of drinks,
you know, like.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I was like, okay, our drinks aren't going to be
on that bill.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I think your thought was like they were playing it
cool the whole meal, right, because we're kind of going
like I don't know if this waiter that's what's happening here.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I don't think he's been informed.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, I starting around the restaurant waiting for the customers
to perhaps inform and form the staff.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
So we've been let down by by all.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Well the dessert because we didn't order desert, were like, oh, rock,
the meal was amazing, We're full, too full for dessert.
I thought, maybe here comes a slice of cake on
the plate and written in hot fudge, we love you
pooh or something. I wouldn't that would have been amazing,
but I wouldn't have been shocked. I'd be like, yeah,
(27:05):
of course, I thought we were gonna get something like that.
So the dessert never arrives, okay. So then in my mind,
I go, well, drinks are off.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Right, probably, And I did feel because I've there's such
a gamut. Okay, there are places that you go every
night for two years and you never see a free drink,
You never see a friendly smile, right, So you just
you just never know. And I felt I had to
lower your expectations because you know, lowered expectations it doesn't
(27:38):
hurt if then you know if the dessert's coming, it'll
come and maybe it'll be even more exciting. So but
I was like, I don't think it's happening, and you
were like no, you were like, nowhere, you're serious something.
You're like nothing. I'm like, I'm not convinced anything has
been clocked here tonight. I was like, I think this
(27:58):
is a lovely meal at a great restaurant and that's
all it is.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Yeah, yeah, which is a lot, which is you know,
lovely middal a great restaurant. But so I'm I think
to myself and I'm embarrassed to say, I think, oh, yeah,
the drinks are coming off this tab. And then I
think to myself, and this is really this is where
I feel embarrassed. I thought there was a chance the
waiter was going to come and say, hm, your meal
(28:28):
has been taken care of. He's going to lean forward.
I pictured him, hands behind the back, a nod. Your
money's no good here. I thought we're going to get getty.
And I thought like, well, that would be like really
(28:48):
over the top, right, But I thought, who knows? So
the checks dropped. I grab it feverishly. I scan, I
scan every item accounted for what if?
Speaker 2 (29:02):
What if there had been just regular old check and
a little heart okay, And it said love.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Poog would have gone a long way. We love Poog
would have gone a long way.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Yeah, now do you think and again this is more
fantasies where people know who we are and the whole thing.
It's a secondary layer, because I was just fantasizing about,
you know, two poog hags at dinner that night, seeing
us march into Jar, seeing us looking around expectantly, seeing
us not be fetted.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah. So I mean I had a great night love Jar,
for a wonderful evening, and then we were dying. We
were cockling or cockling on the street because of our
audacity or assumption.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Are that's it called grandeur? Our delusions of grandeur?
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Yeah, Well then I start to I mean, may starting
to go, well, maybe maybe these people posting, you know,
at Jar and the whole thing, like maybe this is more.
This has happened twice, and in our minds, it's like
the place is overflowing with listeners who come in saying,
you know, Poog sent me whatever, we're here, we're here
(30:11):
for a Poog night and it's actually like only a
couple But.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I don't know, I don't know, I don't I mean,
the even heading is yeah, no, go go no, because
I had a fantasy of the chef texting the general
manager tonight make sure to you know whatever or whatever
we want to send them, and the phone she fell
asleep with the phone in her hand and the text
was unsent, and she's like in Marrakesh and the phone
(30:38):
falls onto the hotel floor.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
You think it's human error.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Not.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
I've been racking my brain about what happened, something that happened.
And I'll say this, Jacqueline. You and I both were like,
do we even talk about this on poog because the
last thing we want because we have no anger, We
have no but we well, listen, I'll be back in
(31:05):
a couple months springtime at jar Yeah sounds great. Well
what all?
Speaker 4 (31:11):
No, I didn't. Yeah, I certainly didn't want to come
off you know whatever. I think.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Next time we go in, we go in like monks,
we go in humbly, we go in. H I mean,
that's that's the medicine we needed. It wasn't It really
was the name of our podcast written in fudge or
written in the blood of our check. Okay, it's to
be reminded. Well, first of all, on principle, there's nothing
(31:37):
uglier in the world, right, then doing something that someone
didn't ask for and then expecting something in return, right,
so to march into jar like hello, when they might
be like, we never asked for your promotion. We don't
require your promotion. If anything, the people who've come here
(31:57):
as a result of listening to your podcast, I've been
some of the most disturbing.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Could you stop mentioning it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Somebody recommended for me some throat soothing tea and they
were like, this needs to drink this when you're doing
your show, and honey, don't come in here with a
throat coat. Okay. And I have a huge tea announcement,
which is that a friend was telling me about how
tea in the bags, classic boxed, shelf stable tea is
like garbage like that, it's literally mold and dust, to
quote her, like, we cannot be ingesting it. The tea
(32:46):
industry is like a joe ruled by exploitation in hell.
It's like the darkest industry. And so there's a company
called Rare Tea, Rare tea company, and I just want
to give them a little plug because they're you know, ethical,
The teas are great. So it's all about whole leaf
tea for twenty twenty three mold, and it's totally affordable
(33:07):
talking about a gorgeous tin of tea for you know,
I mean it's more expensive than a box, but you know,
ten bucks maybe for like a wait is it in
bad seven dollars? Loose baby loose? So you got to
get a steeper in the whole thing. You got to
get a steper in the whole thing. But let me
tell you the other night I had because I ordered
some of their peppermint or spearmint tea, I had it. Oh,
(33:27):
and this is what I was going to say. Some
poog listeners sent us the sweetest little baby teapot for
loose leaf straining. Do you recall? I do not? You
got it? This is early Pooh, this is your anchor.
This is the early days of poog any. We think
you who never sent that? And I used that little
darling teapot to strain my peppermint tea and it was
(33:49):
thinly and it was just and then here I was
and this was very mornings could be huge. I was like,
loose leaf huge. This is the routine. I'll do this
till my deep into my nineties. Yeah, and having a
little moment with myself. I was writing in my journal
drinking loose leaf tea. You can you imagine, oh wow,
I mean it was unreal. It was drinking tea.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
But we gotta we gotta get over the bags classics,
celestial seasonings. Yeah. Well, there's something about like pulling, like
what is tea? Right, Like you're using boiling water to
pull the essence right potently out of something. And if
(34:29):
those items are dust and mold and wood shavings and
cardboard from you know, I mean, can you imagine like
how easy it would be to just, oh, we didn't
get the shipment, let's drop in some sneakers, finally ground paper. Yeah, absolutely,
But why is the bag the problem? Okay, if it's well,
it depends you're not mortar and pesteling it.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Right, There's I don't know enough to speak on the subject,
and therefore I will extensively, but I think that I mean,
of course, you know, there was this You started to
see this, the upscale tea bag, right, which is plastic
like a net, so that releases literally like an orca's
amount of plastic like into your mouth. It's like you
(35:12):
are having you're not having tea you're having plastic like
you're having having the boiling the equivalent. Oh well, this
also made me go really spin out. So hey, everyone,
you go to Starbucks or whatever. They pour your hot
hot water into the BPA lined cup and then you
have the plastic top, so you're steeping, you're having and
then that that hot water is just absorbing, absorbing the
(35:34):
BPA all of it. You're running it through the top
of the little mouth spickett of plastic and you're just
really imbibing a cup of toxins right there.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
Something I really have to start decanting.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
My factor meals out of the plastic that it's BPA
free in the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
But you got at cave.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
But I gotta get it.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
I have been on a hunt for because I still
want the kind of tea v meal experience.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
I enjoy the sections. It's very fun. Yeah, TV dinner
kind of thing like an a calendar. Ever had that
as a child, if you ever had.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Like my parents had wait watchers for a while, and
I remember the young cuisines and I'd be like, please
kind of have a Swedish meat ball lean cuisine and
I remember that and.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
Like plastic well, and those like it's so weird.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
They're they're like like, so, first I think that's a
plastic tin with plastic cover, and it's supposed to go
on the goddamn oven.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
It's crazy.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
Not even just the microwave. It's like it's like grilling
in there.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Yeah, but I'm looking for something I can easily because
it has to be microwaved.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
I'm not taking it to the pan. That's not the
point here.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
That's three minutes, okay, and I blessed the microwave.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I remember this woman in a like crystal shop in
New York East West Books. She was selling young living
oils as a side sort of so young Living oils
is like essential oils, but they I think there's a
multi level marketing element. Oh, at least where you can
have a suitcase okay full of these oils and you
(37:11):
can sell them. Okay, there's at very least you can
order a suitcase and sell it. So she was kind
of I think selling it sort of half out of
the store or something. And one of them was black pepper,
and these were there were the food grade ones, you know,
and she said that if you dropped this particular black
pepper essence whatever in.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
To like lesser food. It would raise the vibration of
the of all the food. Oh yeah, yeah, totally.
Speaker 4 (37:37):
Now that that's peeling.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
I love that the uh. I had a friend telling
me how she was. She like, had a hair someone
who was like a hairstylist was like peddling a lot
of Oliplex, was like Oloplex, olplex alplex are the best, right,
and that he was like, you can't even use this
as a There was a hair mask and he's like,
you can use as a face mask. He's like, you
can just put on your face, let it set for
(38:02):
twenty minutes. And she was like, m just that level
of being so in with the product. But that's Oliplex.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
Though. I feel like there are a lot of places
that are like Oliplex salons where I've been like, Okay,
is it just that good or or are they running
yeah possibly yeah, like is this an intense campaign where
they're just paying salons and yeah, I don't know product
(38:31):
and whatever to become.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
And we'll take a box of Oliplex. Let me tell you,
I like the hair oil and I have purchased it myself.
And then I'm gonna do a hard left turn into acupuncture.
I Uh, A dear friend, as you would say, very sweetly,
gave me a session with this unbelievable body worker a
(38:54):
couple of days ago.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
If it's a friend that sent you the pie on Thanksgiving,
who no, no, no, it's okay. I was gonna say,
this friend's doing too much.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
Okay, listen, I get there on the table. This guy
is unbelievable. He immediately starts pressing me, going oh, yeah,
you're right hip here, giving me that structural understanding things.
He's like, also knows about Chinese medicines to out your tongue.
He's like, he looks at my tongue. He goes, oh,
you're like in a lot of emotional distress right now,
aren't you. I was like yeah. And then he's like,
(39:26):
we're gonna do emotional stuff on you today. I was
like great. He starts, he puts needles. He starts massaging.
This little point on my foot hurts so badly in
this way that I can't even fathom. He sticks a
needle boom boom, each foot, boom boom, each shin my stomach,
my hands the needles are in there. I'm doing deep breathing.
He's massaging in my head. I start weeping on the table.
(39:48):
It was yeah, yeah, oh yeah, baby, I start weeping
on the table.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Kept me in now, kept me in now, kept me
in now.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
He's like really sweet, He's like, let it go. I'm
like weeping, and then somehow just kind of eventually it stops.
My tears are getting use hands being sure he's massaging
in my head?
Speaker 4 (40:05):
What just tears or is there? At first?
Speaker 1 (40:08):
No nother sounds. At first there just was a steady
stream of hot tears. And then I said it no
those kinds of things. Yeah, yeah, fully, amazing fully, and
I feel just fine with it, like I'm not holding back.
I'm just kind of like, yeah, I mean I wasn't
going uh you know, but I was. Yeah, I was crying, okay,
and then somehow it kind of stops. So a key
point before he put the needles in, he was kind
(40:30):
of testing my flexibility. He was like, oh, wow, see
I can barely get this leg here this he presses
on this part of my sternum and I'm like, ow,
that's really tender there He's doing this old tender spots
on my neck. How that hurts. He brings the needles
out suddenly honey, I am flexible. My leg that twenty
minutes ago couldn't go here, it's going there. No, he
presses on the place on my sternum that was really
(40:51):
tender before painless. He presses on the place on my
foot that was really hurting a second ago. The fucking
pain is gone.
Speaker 4 (40:57):
Did he go, let's see how this surnom feels now?
Speaker 2 (41:00):
No?
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Oh, well he goes he well, yeah, like afterwards he
pressed on the spot I don't problem with I just
how does that feel now? And I was like, wow,
now that's fine. I mean it was. He was like,
you're gonna be really tired later. Don't eat any raw food,
eat like warming foods. M I sat up, drink some
broth instantly and whoa, felt the release and that passed
(41:23):
out dead asleep at like eight thirty, like couldn't stay awake, slept,
woke up the next morning, eyes open around seven thirty
eight am. Steady steam of tears from like eight to
twelve thirty. I texted you. I was like, this is crazy.
I'm just like crying and crying crying. He texted me.
He was like, how are you. I was like, well,
I uh slept really well. My body feels great, but
I can't stop crying. And he was like, yep, totally,
(41:46):
like do some squats, do some breathing. But this guy,
this guy, and I'm going to New York and I'm like,
I need to do weekly acupuncture. I have to get
back into it. Yes. I did acupuncture for a little
while for migraines like many many years ago, but didn't
commit because it was so expensive. And I just was like,
I can't do this like every week. But I'm feeling
like I got to I when's that's time you did.
Speaker 4 (42:09):
Ocupunction in I've done it once in my life.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
So calling all New York body workers and accupuncture practitioners,
I wonder if there's any when we're in New York together,
if there's any treatments that would be worth doing simultaneously.
And my job by that the listeners can't see my jaw,
my eyes and mouth is widened remembering a we're both
gonna in New York at the same time. Be I'm
doing a major call out of yeah to everyone. Of course,
(42:33):
because I'm gonna be there for a couple of months.
I need the bodywork, the treatments, all of it. We
have to do a major spa day.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
Yeah, I'm in the mood for that. I'm in the mood.
You know, I keep intending to. I mean, this is
the thing. It's like, I mean, I've said this a
thousand times, but just you know, oh, you know, in crisis,
then you try to start the meditation practice.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
It's like, I know, I know, no, and I'm really
I'm realizing truly over a month now, like the phone
just being like not in my life the way it's
been for so long. Journaling, Wow, the journaling is huge.
I actually have to do it is huge.
Speaker 2 (43:09):
And yet I resist because well, of course, meeting my
own mind. I guess, well, yeah, yet I'm afraid to
be without it.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
So what you got to get into journaling? And I'm
I gotta do the meditation now, need it now, Gotta
gotta gotta gotta.
Speaker 2 (43:27):
I mean, I guess I don't know will we ever
develop habits?
Speaker 1 (43:32):
I know, I don't know if I'll ever develop a habit.
It's really guess who hasn't in ten days? Me? Remember
the guaha, change my life? Guess who put it down me?
Oh wow, gotta get back.
Speaker 2 (43:47):
I mean the closest I've had is probably like my
consistency with with doing Tracy. Yeah, trying to think what
else I've had, but like I just I can't, you know, start.
There's a book Atomic Habits right once again healed by
a title, but it's you know, making like I think
it's like making one degree changes kind of thing like
(44:08):
add up big time, you know, so it's like instead
of these big changes.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
Well that's the thing, because I guess what I'm also off.
I was really onto my Melissa, and I was really
committed fifteen minutes a day and then like I got
home one night and I just like like literally was like, wait,
is my ass like different now? Like suddenly I was
like the fifteen minutes a day every days with you,
that's like hours a week, you know, yeah, doing the
math and I was like wait what? And then I
(44:36):
had to stop because I was getting from the planks.
I think I was getting this pain in my chest.
I pulled some muscles and I had to stop, but
I got to get back on. But yeah, but I
was doing stopped it stopped.
Speaker 2 (44:47):
Yeah, I mean the implementation of that which we know
we need to do in the refusal.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
And then then yeah, I know that's it. It's really
hard hard to It's absolutely hard to do anything. But
I also I want to just throw in because, as
the listeners might remember, I was watching it. I was
going to the Kardashians the last couple of months, Yes,
dipping in and out and becoming very consumed. Also, I
went on the Skims website, got the bras. I'm loving
the bras. Okay, oh my god, Yeah, huge news. But
(45:18):
then I bought I couldn't resist. I'm not I'm not
proud a Black Friday sale. I bought these sweatpants. He's
like Teddy Bear. I was like, these are gonna be
so cozy in New York in the wee ones. Yeah,
they're like I know, like Teddy Bear brown. Yeah, they're insane.
I put them on there. First of all, they're made
for someone who's six four, Like there's so much fabric
(45:38):
at the bottom. It's eerie. And they look, I'll be honest, awful,
it's just crazy like they look I don't know what.
I gotta put him back on. But I put them
on last night, like ooh, and I was like, we'll
I'll wear these in the home. But right they look
like they were made by someone who works at a
carnival like what by a bear?
Speaker 4 (46:00):
But what I actually meant.
Speaker 1 (46:01):
Was that I was gonna say by a carnival bear,
and I was like, I'm not going.
Speaker 2 (46:04):
To say that, like a like a nice teddy Bear
made them. Yeah, so it's like where you're like, I
wish I had that sweet this was made of the
Teddy Bear itself. This is lesser than the Teddy Bear.
But wait, did you only get the pants?
Speaker 1 (46:17):
No? I got the pants And there's a couple of
bras in there that haven't tried because the one skin
better Teddy bra I love. No, No, they're just like
regular bras.
Speaker 4 (46:23):
See, I feel like those Teddy Bear and I could
have this wrong, but those lounge sets that I've seen
from them, it only looks good if you're a.
Speaker 2 (46:30):
Full Teddy Bear. Yeah, right, teddy Bear pants and sure,
I mean you can do anything. Of course, you're right,
You're right.
Speaker 1 (46:36):
No, I almost I got to post a picture on
the pook Instagram. Yeah, because these pants are like there,
it's just comical how like bad they look on me.
I don't know, it's just anyway, it's we're like two
weeks out of Christmas. Can you believe this? Me alone
on Christmas in New York. You're never alone if you're
in New York. It's gonna be hard.
Speaker 4 (46:56):
Yeah, well I agree, and we're gonna work on that.
Speaker 1 (46:58):
We're gonna figure that out.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
I started googling like Christmas cocktail recipes and then also
Christmas mocktail recipes, like because like I can't like add
something to Christmas Eve that like doesn't account for like
the non drinkers.
Speaker 1 (47:13):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (47:14):
Like doing a fun thing this year and it's like
only for myself. But then you go, what is you know,
it's upsciting to drink.
Speaker 1 (47:23):
What I love a Pims cup and you can do
a virgin Pims cup.
Speaker 4 (47:27):
Kind of, But what is Pims cup again?
Speaker 1 (47:28):
I forgot already forgetting it was it was one of
those things where I was having Pims cups one Christmas.
I was completely obsessed with Pims cup. So what it
is is Pims liquor lemon juice ginger. It's really just
Pims lemon juice ginger. And then you do cucumber slice,
mint lemon veel, and orange wheal put on ice. And
(47:51):
what's great is that it's a pitcher cocktail, so you
can make it for a group. It's great because I
remember one.
Speaker 4 (47:55):
Christmas that's the other thing cup for everyone.
Speaker 2 (47:58):
You once had a party fifteen years ago and I
think there were two punch bowls and yes, yes, it
was so fucking cool. So I started looking at Christmas
punch too. But I'm trying to like, because I love
to me, the mocktail or to even use that word,
isn't even what I want, like a fun Christmas drink.
Speaker 4 (48:16):
It's like it shouldn't be like mimicking the cocktail.
Speaker 2 (48:20):
It has to be good on someone, like, for example,
like a mold cider is just delicious, right, like a
hot mold like apple cider. I don't even know mold is,
but you know what I mean, Like kind of like
that one. I have a Thanksgiving with the cranberry and
the cloves and the cinnamon sticks and the whole thing.
So I'm like, that is an option. I'm imagining this
like basically, okay, a couple of things. One eggnog. I
(48:42):
love it, I'm one, but I get the eggnog latte. Whoa,
I'd get it at Starbucks, Like one eggnog latte for
me please.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
Like yeah, and it's used to get the white chocolate
mocha at Starbucks after school? This child? Mmm, god, Chantico, right, no, Shantico.
Starbucks had a thing and I used to drink this
in high school and like I think it was the
ninth grade they had a drinking chocolate called Chantico or
(49:13):
Shantiico and it was like a little it was like
an espresso, but it was fucking chocolate, maybe the tato.
It was like a little thing and it was gents,
it was like the densest hot chocolate.
Speaker 2 (49:24):
What's that company? In New York they always have the
you know those the market the holiday markets in New York. God,
strolling through those, the one in Columbus Circle, the one
in like Bryant Park, you know.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
Honestly, are you ready?
Speaker 3 (49:38):
No?
Speaker 1 (49:38):
This is actually my first Christmas in New York City?
Can you believe that?
Speaker 3 (49:41):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (49:41):
Okay, well, yeah, maybe we'll go together because it's really fun, even.
Speaker 1 (49:46):
Though I'm not gonna I'm not gonna obsess and try
to lock you down. But yeah, no it did.
Speaker 2 (49:51):
Yeah, And you know, you go, you get the one
that would go into Columbus Circle of these huge gingerbread cookies,
gingerbread men and women, and and I get that and
the hotslider, just like calling them men and women that like, like's.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
Wanting to say Gingerman or whatever. Never even heard.
Speaker 2 (50:19):
I think they had a skirt, you know, it's very
much you know that sense. But and then hot cider,
and then.
Speaker 1 (50:25):
You're gonna have to offline. I'm gonna have to do
low stress here because I want to stress you out.
But I'm don't have to do some offline Christmas talk
with you. I know you're already thinking about me with
love for Christmas hugely, Okay, I know there's factors in motion. Okay,
it's what we'll do it.
Speaker 2 (50:39):
We'll do it offline, okay, and we'll have to celebrate
Christmas in some way with the with the show as
we did. We did a live You'll recall when I
was doing in California.
Speaker 1 (50:50):
We did a Christmas drink or whatever.
Speaker 4 (50:52):
We did ranch writers on Christmas.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
I was sobbing.
Speaker 2 (50:55):
No I had been because I had to stay in California.
Speaker 1 (51:00):
And of course pandemic hell yes, of course I remember
the Ranch writer Christmas yea.
Speaker 2 (51:06):
And I haven't heard from them in a while, but
I know I'm on their list.
Speaker 1 (51:09):
And I drank a couple of ranch writers last night.
I took a four pack of Ranch Writer to John's house.
Did he like them? Did he try it?
Speaker 4 (51:17):
Try?
Speaker 1 (51:18):
He's had a few? Know what flavor? This was just
a four pack of the vodka the chiltern? Yeah, I
think So.
Speaker 4 (51:24):
What color was it?
Speaker 1 (51:25):
I'm sorry, I know, pale, like a very pale color.
It's a color I don't even know.
Speaker 2 (51:33):
Yeah, I think I think I know the one. The
Jalapeno tequila one is a fave.
Speaker 1 (51:38):
I think I like the Paloma and I like the
tequila ones. Well, here's an ad for Ranch Writers. So
and they have been very generous to us, and we
hope I continue in the new year.
Speaker 2 (51:47):
Tequila ones are my favorite, despite loving vodka and other contexts.
Speaker 1 (51:51):
I want to say, And I think the next episode
of Poog we should do. I think it'll be really
fun to do a bit of a Christmas round up
wish list stuff. So I'm actually going to save it,
going to tease that for the next episode. And Jaquelin's
frozen for me. Well, I thought she was doing a
loaded inhale and pause before speaking, but she's just frozen,
(52:12):
and now of course wondering is she talking? Am I
frozen for her? Am I hearing the abyss. I think
I'm hearing the abyss alone. Okay, Jacqueline just texting. My
computer just died, so in a shocking twist of events,
I'm going to have to end this end this episode alone.
(52:33):
Thanks for listening. In case she doesn't come back, I'll
just say good night, good day, good night. That was pooh.
If you enjoyed Pooh, please subscribe, rate, and review. If not,
we will press charges.
Hi, I'm Kate ber Lance, I'm Jacqueline Novak. And this
is poog, an ongoing conversation about wellness between two obsessive.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Friends, two untamable intellects. This is our hobby, this is
our hell.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
This is our naked desire for free products.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
This is poog.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Today's topics looselie speaking, a bumper sticker, a coaster, a title.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Hello, hi Yah.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
When you sigh like that, do you get a response
from others like what's wrong or anything like that?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Uh? I mean, obviously I'm asking because I do. Yeah,
like I'm trying to think of the lots wrong sidelight
that I've got plenty wrong, but right.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
I always feel like, no, that's the first time I
had breathed in five minutes. You should be applauding me.
I was suffering in the five minutes before the SI.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Yeah. I don't know if if I'm a big sire.
Good morning, Uh, good morning, it's good morning, bog. In
a couple of weeks, which is funny, we last spoke
the day after Things Giving, I believe, I mean, you
and I of course have spoken offline, but.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Tons tons tons. I felt bad for the listeners at times. Yeah,
you know, almost like God, they'd love this. Yeah, I know,
they beat this up. It's really interesting when you're crying,
like crying, where did the tears come from?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Well, that's the question.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
And how do they never end?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
Well?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
I told you the.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Other day, drink water, right, Okay, I mean that's water.
So you're losing water, you're crying all day crazy? Yeah,
you got it.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
I did yesterday drink a big LM and T element
electrolyte drink, which, by the light, where are they we
need the powdering? Okay, so but I did drink some
electrolytes for that reason.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
I had electrolytes yesterday.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
They were Vega, you know Vega, And I read Vega's
book years ago.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
That's not his name, but you know.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
And I've really taken with it about energy and the electrolytes.
It said I decided to pour some to actually it
said mid workout, and I was like, let's try it
during my tracy and it said pour into ice cold water.
Now what does that mean to you? And why do
(02:40):
you think that's essential? Why are they saying that? And
they were saying that in the instructions.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
I have no idea, and that's very you know, anti
Aire Veda, I don't understand why you'd want it to
be cold.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
The only thing I could think was that they don't
want the salts or whatever to dissolve.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Like I'm confused by that. We'll look into that elementating
that we never will. But yeah, let's reach out to them.
I'm gonna say, oh, but I had a moment that
I wanted to I think I texted you about but
I don't know, but I was. It's interesting when you're
driving and crying because you're like anyway, I was driving
and crying and I saw this bumper and it pulled
(03:23):
in front of his car, and the bumper sticker said,
take a deep breath, Comma, you've got this baby, And
to my horror, I looked at it. I took a
deep breath and I excelled, and I was like, like,
I actually did it, and that's what you Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
No, it's like when you were healed by Matthew McConaughey.
He hey, oh yeah, I gotta you know, red lash
and line one must not be too good for being
healed by a bumper sticker A coaster button. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
For a gift or a celebrities book totally.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
You know, I've been healed by a title. I mean
that's a little ever healed by a title of a book.
Don't need to read it.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Oh well, to fear and do it.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Anyway. My mom used to say that to me when
I was little. It's so sweet, and.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
It made the woman you are.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Today, and it made the woman that's I. Well, I've
also been I think when I'm I'm oh, I almost
forgot about this. So I'm going to New York in
a few days, going to be doing my show. I
also want to I'm sorry forgive me Jacka, but I
want to plug a poog. This is for the poog hags.
This is a discount code for Christmas Eve and New
Year's Eve shows. Yes, mac Kate, m A c ka
(04:56):
t E is going to get you twenty five percent
off those holidays. Again, that's m a c ka t
E all caps, the twenty five percent off, just just
the holiday shows. But got at two o'clock at six pm. Okay, anyway,
after this run anyway, this little gift that I'm gonna
give myself is I want to finally go to Esselon
and big sir, Oh, you're invited. I immediately went from
(05:19):
solar retreat to you also being there, but I want
to do it. It's it's ostrom time, you know, I
want like, I just want, not that it's an ostrom
but right, but I think I are you at all
intrigued by a silent meditation or like by by a
silent retreat?
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Literally couldn't be more.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
I have been waiting also to silent retreat like it's
because we'll imagine the eye contact. Oh yeah, well, because
the silent retreat. This is where I struggle. No writing,
I believe some of them where I struggle too, Well,
that depends I think I would have to be able
to write and read.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Well, let me ask you this. Are they all like that?
Are you? Are they all no?
Speaker 3 (06:05):
No?
Speaker 4 (06:05):
No to write?
Speaker 3 (06:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
That that was almost a thought that wasn't related to
the essulin thing. I I just was because I have
I've had friends that have gone on silent retreats and
you know, they're like, yeah, Dave four is really challenging.
I'm like, yeah, I can't do that. I don't know
if that's is that what I really need? Is that
the medicine I really need?
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah, but we'll see, we'll see. I could do the
silence with the others. Yeah, okay, you and me are
both addicted to thinking right, Yeah, to figuring it out
and the belief of following the thought through and that
and that it can be figured out and I can
find peace, right, and then.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
It's a sickness.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Yeah, we were talking about because I was saying you
the other day about my spiritual dollar signs in the
eyes like a cartoon character.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Said, you said this, and I want you to say
it for the listeners because it was so brilliant to me.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Thank you. And we're similar and this is where we're.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
It's like when you have a friend that you share
a particular kind of compulsion with, like it's kind of
an incredible right and you know, dangerous, Like I don't know,
I don't know's I actually think.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
No, I think.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
I think it's good.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I think because when the other one's in the throes
of it, the second figure can be the witness.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
And you know, we can, you can play the role
of witness.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
But like I think, you and me use our minds right,
and we go we can figure this out, we can
find a way through this, We figure out a way
to think about this. It's big for me and figure
out a way to think about this. And I'm going,
what is this compulsion about? And it's about no pain.
It's about I can figure out a way think about
the soul experisonal pain, so I won't have to have
the bad feeling.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
And it's like it's like you don't even remember anymore
the possibility that having the feeling is survivable. Yeah, like
and I'm still not convinced it is. And so it's
it's like a cartoon character with dollar signs into the eyes.
It's like, wait, I got an idea, I can have
(07:59):
it all.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Yeah, yeah, or even it becomes a mushrooms the whole
time thing of like oh my god. Yeah, the avoiding pain,
you know, we all do it. But there's also a
clarity that comes with like the rawness of just pain.
That actually clarity is not the word, just the to
be refined by the fires of suffering, as James Hollis
(08:21):
would say, mm. But speaking of young, of course, well
that you know, can't I get around it? I mean
that's I know, and.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, I know, I know young,
I know yeah yeah, yeah, yeah I know.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
And then like it's like a sneak like I'm gonna sneak.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
I'm gonna sneak around the pain. Yeah, yeah, nope, but wait,
what were you?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
There was something?
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Oh the sound and silent retreat.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
I think the harder part would be.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
To me.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Losing thoughts, like to not build a journal, oh silent.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Fine.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
If I was able to journal, then conversation with myself
all day fine, great, But the no journal.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Being unallowed to capture thoughts terrifies me, and therein lies
the ultimate medicine. Probably, well for sure, Oh god. Well,
I mean I've been on my own retreat in the
sense that I'm clocking in now at over a month
of essentially no social media at all, and I shall say,
(09:24):
you know, I never So this is the hell of
the times, right when you talk about like I'm trying
to be on my phone, like it's like it's instantly
it feels embarrassing. I'm like, yes, we all know, like
we're all you know, the phones are bad, and I
know I've talked about it makes me sick or it
just makes me self conscious instantly. But I am clocking
in over a month in a different way, and I
think I might actually never go back this time. And
(09:44):
when I say, never go back. I'm still gonna have
social media accounts. You know. I logged on to post
something I had to post, but I got out, And
I actually think I used to still have the anxiety
of missing things on there. You know a couple of
those those social interactions that you know, you meet someone
on there that you're like their work, and the next
thing you know, you're at dinner and it's a lifelong frint,
(10:07):
you know something like that. Yeah, yeah, and I'm over
that now and I'm like, oh, I'm actually willing to
sacrifice whatever could have been on there.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Yes, well, it's like the thing that my mother would
say to me, and I'm pretty sure my aunt would
also say to my cousin, and therefore I think it
came from the grandmother. But it was just like anytime
there was a thing that you might be going to
and then like deciding you weren't going to be going
to it.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
It was like, but your.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Husband could be there, you could meet your husband there, okay,
and then the terror terror you run off to the
to the whatever the pot luck.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Yeah, that's really funny. And you can hear me even
I'm being in articulate and kind of fumbling here because
I do feel exhausted with my own pontification on this
matter over the poo years. But I swear to God
it's different this time. And I think I think I'm
just because honestly, and I'll say it, something that used
(11:07):
to bum me out was I'm misreading the poog going
into the poog dms and have send beautiful messages and
it's encouraging or it's nice to check in with, but
I ultimately can't still send them. But I ultimately just
can't erase myself every day through interacting with Instagram. Yeah,
(11:29):
and talk about avoiding pain, talk about avoiding pain. The
phone stuff is might as well be a bottle of
gin on well or a fucking syringe filled with heroin.
It's like, actually, it's response.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
He started with syringe full of heroin, which is like
what I should have heard, and I heard syringe full
of hair and I was like wow.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
I was like, yeah, that sounds horrible.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Well, I have these fantasies of clearing my phone of
everything but healing apps okay yea and nutrients, so like
I open it up and it's like, because I do this,
sometimes I open up the phone and I go, wait,
what's the good stuff on here? Like, I'm like, okay,
books right, and I opened the books app. It's like,
(12:18):
what if my phone wasn't just a literal black hole?
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Right? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:23):
That I carry with me to siphon my own energy
out of myself.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Yea, why exactly? Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
I keep this with me because I can't hold my
entire soul's energy in my body because I'm too afraid of.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
The light I carry you.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
So I keep this just to sort of be able
to piss in a bag spiritually.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yeah, no more, it's an emergency.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Had an interesting dinner with you at Jar, lovely dinner
with you at Jar.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Oh yeah, let's talk about that. So to my excitement,
said A Jacula, I'm going to be in your area.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
It's good.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Jar got the reservation. So okay, here's a detail. I
didn't tell you. The reservation was early. It was I
think six o'clock. Around five point thirty, I got a
call from Jar. I saw my phone lighting up its
jar and I answered, and they go, Hi, we just
wanted to confirm your reservation. Very unusual to confirm a
reservation half an hour before, do you know what I mean?
It does so in the morning. They want to make
(13:20):
sure we're coming so they can get the cake ready
or whatever. Like I was like, they want to make
sure we're really coming before they get the champagne tower together.
I picked jacline up. We get to Jar.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Wait we checked, yoh, pick me up.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
I'm in a blue blaze amazing Yeah, and a special broach.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Yeah, you look really polished. I'm not polished, but I'm
I'm kind of accepting that and loving that. And then
we arrived there, I searched.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
I said, wait, I'm slowing us down and slowing us down,
so I want to get more of set up.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
I said to Chris.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
I got a shower and I got to wear something
good for quote our big night at Jar.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Yeah, I go, they know we're coming.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
I mean I you have texted, you know with the chef.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Had a lovely interaction all of that. I was like,
Jacquel and I are coming. She God bless her was
out of town. I was like, okay, well she knows
that we're coming. I was like, the bell has been
rung at Jar headquarters and we're coming in. So you
pick me up like gratty feelings. I love getting into
your car. I gave you a gift. You can get
(14:43):
to eli there. Oh yeah, she sure did. But then
we get there check in. I searched the host's as
upon check in for something, and then because the reservation whatever,
we get to our table.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
So so I will say this, I I wasn't really expecting anything.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
I mean, I mean, in one sense.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Okay, speak for your smell.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
Yeah, now you know what it was.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
I was almost more convinced that like, like it was
gonna be full of of hags.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Okay, Oh well, that's what was funny is that Jack
and I we haven't been in a jar together in
a long time. And so every table of like youngish women,
like anyone that like, I looked at them being like, well,
they're here because of poop. And even I had a
couple of trips to the bathroom where I felt I
was like hello, like I was almost searching the faces
(15:39):
of some of the patriots, like.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
My eyes were roving at the bar.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
I was like, oh, I was like, oh, I feel
like I feel like I better turn my head for it.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
The natural human response of if someone walks by you,
you just look at them, right, So I took the
natural human response of anyone looking at me as I,
you know, wushed past them as a kind of a
silent poog, kind of a silent understanding that we're all
here for po okay.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
All the way to the bathroom, I go, I think
I wished a little too fast. Try to slow it
down on the return, to give them a chance to
confirm that, in.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Fact, it was poop. Yah, it was it was it
was me.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I I go, well, Kate's the you know, because we
joke about I've never been recognized for poog.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Okay, it's not, by the way. I'll just say the
other day someone was like, oh, I wasn't sure if
you were Jacqueline or Kate. That's so funny. I thought
it was Jacquelin. But it's you. That's just great, Okay.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
When the second they heard their voice, I mean your voice.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I don't know, they just they came up and like, oh,
I thought maybe it was Jacqueline. Okay, wait, so keep going.
I love that we're slowing it down. Well, I always
want to slow it down.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
So I think I was so I'd forgotten kind of
the poog element, okay, because I was so excited to
be in your company and excited for dinner and whatever.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
That that's kind of what happen.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
That's why I was like, because I didn't feel this intense,
like I wasn't already scanning for whatever. I was really
kind of bubbling over with excitement. So I kept forgetting.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
But you kept remembering that we have a podcast called
Pooh when we talk about jar Is that what you mean?
Speaker 2 (17:14):
Yes, Like so I mean wondering whether everyone's in on
the joke or no one's in on the joke is
one of the strangest places to live the joke, our presence,
like the joke being like we all know us and
this restaurant is all the time, right. Yeah, So like
(17:36):
when I I felt like I was performing a little
bit for the waiter, like, oh, give them something.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Oh well, I said something. Actually I can't move, I said,
this was so embarrassing. So really this is actually really
dick lasse. So we're there, this this server who I
who we have not had before, is talking about the
specials or a couple of specials things we've had that,
you know, a couple of little add ons way, oh
wait know that, And then I even did a whole
(18:02):
thing of on the menu. I was like, oh, well,
there's actually huge news and this does need this actually
has to go straight to jar corporate. A hag did
inform and it is in fact true. The Leachy Teenie
is gone off the menu. I repeat, the Leachy teenis
off the menu. So I came in with that information
noticed its absence on the cocktail menu. Was devastated. He
was like, yeah, no, it's gone. Like maybe we'd be back,
(18:23):
but like it's off the menu. And then I'm looking
at the main menu and there's a burger on there,
and I go, have I lost my mind? Or is
there never? Is there always a burger on the menu.
I've never seen that, And he was like, oh yeah,
that like can come on and off, and I went
something something oh. And then then I said, we know
the chef. I maybe even said Suzanne, you did I
(18:43):
think I said we know Suzanne. To be clear, who
is this chef? I was like, well, we know Suzanne. Okay,
it never matter, just some texts, some lovely texts. I
threw that in his face, unfazed, and I go, okay,
this gave us nothing. And so in my mind also
I'm like, he is so starstruck. You can't you even
(19:04):
imagine that it's us? So we take a long time
with the menu. We put it in an order.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
You know.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
The meal was gorgeous. Of course, the food was great.
There's more Wait, what what did I forget? Okay?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
So so one, first of all, you doing this this
sort of performance of one the leechy Mutini's gone why
and asking why and him saying sometimes we change it up.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
I actually had a moment, this was my derangement where
I thought, did they take it off because they want
to be a step ahead? Like we've talked about the
Leachi Martini so much that now it's like hack them
to have it. No, not flying on the shelves, like
almost like okay, now that that's like a thing and
everyone's asking for.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
It, we have to we have to abandon it. Can't
just play the hits. That's so funn I just had
the move forward. I just had the fantasy of the
leachy tiniy had to take off because everyone was listening
to Poop coming and ordering it, and they were like,
we can't. The supply chain is of course, as we know,
been fractured and they can't keep up with the supply.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
And only the demand based Yet again, next next the
burger thing was fascinating to me because it was like,
I don't know, were you offended by its presence, like
like this is no.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
I was excited. I was shocked because okay, cheeseburger is
one of my favorite foods, and so the thought because
when I go to drag at a steak, but it's
like I just couldn't imagine that I had ever my
eyes had ever seen Burger on that menu, Like how
could I forgot? Oh I did get the pot roast
on this night and it was delicious, but continue which
we both got last time.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
It was delicious, So I had a moment now that
this is like pristine. So we had loved the tomato
onion salad the heirlooms last time we were there. Of course,
tomato is my favorite, one of my favorite things in
the world. Take it in any form. This is like
primo you to me. Okay, So I'm like, but I'm
(21:06):
thinking about the tomato salad and and You're like, oh, well,
I just I'm always shocked to see a tomato salad
on a menu in November.
Speaker 4 (21:15):
I mean when tomatoes are out of season.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Yeah, right right, And I'm humiliated, Okay, obviously because I'm
tomato all ears, whether it's red as a cherry or
white as a web browser. Okay, never forgot when Kate
identify a tomatoes white is a web browser? Okay, it
(21:40):
holds imagine that.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Nerve food review, how cruel.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
So so I'm like, I'm arguing, what can I just want?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I'm interjecting with because I described again to insult the
chef at that restaurant in Scotland, I described the tomato
as being white as a web browser. And then I
was reading a really vicious takedown of a play in
the New York Times and this person was crucifying this
one production in a way that I was like, really,
but it was like, you know, of course like certain
(22:13):
things like this actor is amazing, whatever, but like crucifying
the production design and everything, and they go something something
the lighting design by full name would make a rat clap.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Okay, see this is.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
This is the problem.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
And I was like, that's journalism.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
I mean that is hysterical.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Okay, that is the maybe laugh out loud and I
screen crapped it. I was like, that is so that
like the anger and that which I almost thoughts, what
is that like a theater phrase that I've never heard,
because I don't know the world the theater like it's
so good, like it would make a rat clap. That's okay,
made me laugh out loud.
Speaker 4 (22:56):
Let's take a second with this before we return to
our meal.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
So what I find so devastating on that is it
is there is an art, there is this person has
an ability with words, with imagery, with wit. Okay, I'm
sorry they're using it in service of taking down another
piece of art. When when someone who's able to come
up with would make a rat clap should hang it
(23:22):
up and go make a play.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
I just I know.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Criticism, Okay, I know, but I also don't know. I
also think it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah, it's wrong. Okay, I hear you. Well, let's continue
back to the meal. Okay. So the tomatoes rot a season.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Yeah, so I start defending my honor, going, well, Kate,
I mean, but of course I assume that a restaurant.
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Like this, And I said, well, that's on the menu,
they're not going to serve it. If it's on the menu,
then they've got the tomatoes somehow, and they're doing it.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I started arguing that maybe they had like climate controlled
like tomato factory up back yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (24:17):
So I'm struggling with wanting it the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
And then I even like as though the waiter would
be a shame for me if I ordered something that's
on the menu. I felt the need to ask him,
so tomatoes in November. It was as if how quickly, okay,
the student stole the countenance of the teacher.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
You, yeah, how quickly? This is how people hurt each other. Right.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
I felt a shame for thinking it was safe to
order a tomato in November. And I turned to the
waiter and go, I will, now, I will since it
a shame you for having it on the menu, while
hoping that he convinces me that I can still get
it whatever, and he does. We put together an order.
We're a little worried it's not enough food, and you.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Say what did I say? What did I say?
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Can I say I don't know? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Yeah, I say I don't remember, okay, okay, And then you.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Were like, whatever, it's an actress meal. It's an actress's meal.
Oh I forgot no, no, sorry, I forgot about it's
actress's order. I wasn't like starving either, That's the thing.
My appetite was, like, I was like, I don't know
how much I can even eat tonight. Yeah yeah, I well,
then also, you know what I thought? What I was
I can't remember even say this to Jacqueline. In my mind,
I went, they're going to send.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
An app or two.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
In my mind, I go, let's put this order in.
They're going to send over an app.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
I think it wasn't just in your mind. I think
I recall you saying, well, dessert's coming. Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
I was like I was like, they're gonna get a tower, yeah,
a profederal on this table. Yeah. So then we eat
the meal. It's great, as always delicious, and then eventually
it's check time. We're anticipating the check being dropped. We
(26:01):
start talking.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
About Now we start talking about I was shocked, okay
that you thought there would be anything.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Okay, you weren't shocked. You didn't know. I was hoping.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yeah, I was hoping when you're like round of drinks,
you know, like.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I was like, okay, our drinks aren't going to be
on that bill.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I think your thought was like they were playing it
cool the whole meal, right, because we're kind of going
like I don't know if this waiter that's what's happening here.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
I don't think he's been informed.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yeah, I starting around the restaurant waiting for the customers
to perhaps inform and form the staff.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
So we've been let down by by all.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Well the dessert because we didn't order desert, were like, oh, rock,
the meal was amazing, We're full, too full for dessert.
I thought, maybe here comes a slice of cake on
the plate and written in hot fudge, we love you
pooh or something. I wouldn't that would have been amazing,
but I wouldn't have been shocked. I'd be like, yeah,
(27:05):
of course, I thought we were gonna get something like that.
So the dessert never arrives, okay. So then in my mind,
I go, well, drinks are off.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Right, probably, And I did feel because I've there's such
a gamut. Okay, there are places that you go every
night for two years and you never see a free drink,
You never see a friendly smile, right, So you just
you just never know. And I felt I had to
lower your expectations because you know, lowered expectations it doesn't
(27:38):
hurt if then you know if the dessert's coming, it'll
come and maybe it'll be even more exciting. So but
I was like, I don't think it's happening, and you
were like no, you were like, nowhere, you're serious something.
You're like nothing. I'm like, I'm not convinced anything has
been clocked here tonight. I was like, I think this
(27:58):
is a lovely meal at a great restaurant and that's
all it is.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Yeah, yeah, which is a lot, which is you know,
lovely middal a great restaurant. But so I'm I think
to myself and I'm embarrassed to say, I think, oh, yeah,
the drinks are coming off this tab. And then I
think to myself, and this is really this is where
I feel embarrassed. I thought there was a chance the
waiter was going to come and say, hm, your meal
(28:28):
has been taken care of. He's going to lean forward.
I pictured him, hands behind the back, a nod. Your
money's no good here. I thought we're going to get getty.
And I thought like, well, that would be like really
(28:48):
over the top, right, But I thought, who knows? So
the checks dropped. I grab it feverishly. I scan, I
scan every item accounted for what if?
Speaker 2 (29:02):
What if there had been just regular old check and
a little heart okay, And it said love.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Poog would have gone a long way. We love Poog
would have gone a long way.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Yeah, now do you think and again this is more
fantasies where people know who we are and the whole thing.
It's a secondary layer, because I was just fantasizing about,
you know, two poog hags at dinner that night, seeing
us march into Jar, seeing us looking around expectantly, seeing
us not be fetted.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah. So I mean I had a great night love Jar,
for a wonderful evening, and then we were dying. We
were cockling or cockling on the street because of our
audacity or assumption.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Are that's it called grandeur? Our delusions of grandeur?
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Yeah, Well then I start to I mean, may starting
to go, well, maybe maybe these people posting, you know,
at Jar and the whole thing, like maybe this is more.
This has happened twice, and in our minds, it's like
the place is overflowing with listeners who come in saying,
you know, Poog sent me whatever, we're here, we're here
(30:11):
for a Poog night and it's actually like only a
couple But.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I don't know, I don't know, I don't I mean,
the even heading is yeah, no, go go no, because
I had a fantasy of the chef texting the general
manager tonight make sure to you know whatever or whatever
we want to send them, and the phone she fell
asleep with the phone in her hand and the text
was unsent, and she's like in Marrakesh and the phone
(30:38):
falls onto the hotel floor.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
You think it's human error.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Not.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
I've been racking my brain about what happened, something that happened.
And I'll say this, Jacqueline. You and I both were like,
do we even talk about this on poog because the
last thing we want because we have no anger, We
have no but we well, listen, I'll be back in
(31:05):
a couple months springtime at jar Yeah sounds great. Well
what all?
Speaker 4 (31:11):
No, I didn't. Yeah, I certainly didn't want to come
off you know whatever. I think.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Next time we go in, we go in like monks,
we go in humbly, we go in. H I mean,
that's that's the medicine we needed. It wasn't It really
was the name of our podcast written in fudge or
written in the blood of our check. Okay, it's to
be reminded. Well, first of all, on principle, there's nothing
(31:37):
uglier in the world, right, then doing something that someone
didn't ask for and then expecting something in return, right,
so to march into jar like hello, when they might
be like, we never asked for your promotion. We don't
require your promotion. If anything, the people who've come here
(31:57):
as a result of listening to your podcast, I've been
some of the most disturbing.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Could you stop mentioning it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Somebody recommended for me some throat soothing tea and they
were like, this needs to drink this when you're doing
your show, and honey, don't come in here with a
throat coat. Okay. And I have a huge tea announcement,
which is that a friend was telling me about how
tea in the bags, classic boxed, shelf stable tea is
like garbage like that, it's literally mold and dust, to
quote her, like, we cannot be ingesting it. The tea
(32:46):
industry is like a joe ruled by exploitation in hell.
It's like the darkest industry. And so there's a company
called Rare Tea, Rare tea company, and I just want
to give them a little plug because they're you know, ethical,
The teas are great. So it's all about whole leaf
tea for twenty twenty three mold, and it's totally affordable
(33:07):
talking about a gorgeous tin of tea for you know,
I mean it's more expensive than a box, but you know,
ten bucks maybe for like a wait is it in
bad seven dollars? Loose baby loose? So you got to
get a steeper in the whole thing. You got to
get a steper in the whole thing. But let me
tell you the other night I had because I ordered
some of their peppermint or spearmint tea, I had it. Oh,
(33:27):
and this is what I was going to say. Some
poog listeners sent us the sweetest little baby teapot for
loose leaf straining. Do you recall? I do not? You
got it? This is early Pooh, this is your anchor.
This is the early days of poog any. We think
you who never sent that? And I used that little
darling teapot to strain my peppermint tea and it was
(33:49):
thinly and it was just and then here I was
and this was very mornings could be huge. I was like,
loose leaf huge. This is the routine. I'll do this
till my deep into my nineties. Yeah, and having a
little moment with myself. I was writing in my journal
drinking loose leaf tea. You can you imagine, oh wow,
I mean it was unreal. It was drinking tea.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
But we gotta we gotta get over the bags classics,
celestial seasonings. Yeah. Well, there's something about like pulling, like
what is tea? Right, Like you're using boiling water to
pull the essence right potently out of something. And if
(34:29):
those items are dust and mold and wood shavings and
cardboard from you know, I mean, can you imagine like
how easy it would be to just, oh, we didn't
get the shipment, let's drop in some sneakers, finally ground paper. Yeah, absolutely,
But why is the bag the problem? Okay, if it's well,
it depends you're not mortar and pesteling it.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Right, There's I don't know enough to speak on the subject,
and therefore I will extensively, but I think that I mean,
of course, you know, there was this You started to
see this, the upscale tea bag, right, which is plastic
like a net, so that releases literally like an orca's
amount of plastic like into your mouth. It's like you
(35:12):
are having you're not having tea you're having plastic like
you're having having the boiling the equivalent. Oh well, this
also made me go really spin out. So hey, everyone,
you go to Starbucks or whatever. They pour your hot
hot water into the BPA lined cup and then you
have the plastic top, so you're steeping, you're having and
then that that hot water is just absorbing, absorbing the
(35:34):
BPA all of it. You're running it through the top
of the little mouth spickett of plastic and you're just
really imbibing a cup of toxins right there.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
Something I really have to start decanting.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
My factor meals out of the plastic that it's BPA
free in the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
But you got at cave.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
But I gotta get it.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
I have been on a hunt for because I still
want the kind of tea v meal experience.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
I enjoy the sections. It's very fun. Yeah, TV dinner
kind of thing like an a calendar. Ever had that
as a child, if you ever had.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Like my parents had wait watchers for a while, and
I remember the young cuisines and I'd be like, please
kind of have a Swedish meat ball lean cuisine and
I remember that and.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
Like plastic well, and those like it's so weird.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
They're they're like like, so, first I think that's a
plastic tin with plastic cover, and it's supposed to go
on the goddamn oven.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
It's crazy.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
Not even just the microwave. It's like it's like grilling
in there.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Yeah, but I'm looking for something I can easily because
it has to be microwaved.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
I'm not taking it to the pan. That's not the
point here.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
That's three minutes, okay, and I blessed the microwave.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
I remember this woman in a like crystal shop in
New York East West Books. She was selling young living
oils as a side sort of so young Living oils
is like essential oils, but they I think there's a
multi level marketing element. Oh, at least where you can
have a suitcase okay full of these oils and you
(37:11):
can sell them. Okay, there's at very least you can
order a suitcase and sell it. So she was kind
of I think selling it sort of half out of
the store or something. And one of them was black pepper,
and these were there were the food grade ones, you know,
and she said that if you dropped this particular black
pepper essence whatever in.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
To like lesser food. It would raise the vibration of
the of all the food. Oh yeah, yeah, totally.
Speaker 4 (37:37):
Now that that's peeling.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
I love that the uh. I had a friend telling
me how she was. She like, had a hair someone
who was like a hairstylist was like peddling a lot
of Oliplex, was like Oloplex, olplex alplex are the best, right,
and that he was like, you can't even use this
as a There was a hair mask and he's like,
you can use as a face mask. He's like, you
can just put on your face, let it set for
(38:02):
twenty minutes. And she was like, m just that level
of being so in with the product. But that's Oliplex.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
Though. I feel like there are a lot of places
that are like Oliplex salons where I've been like, Okay,
is it just that good or or are they running
yeah possibly yeah, like is this an intense campaign where
they're just paying salons and yeah, I don't know product
(38:31):
and whatever to become.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
And we'll take a box of Oliplex. Let me tell you,
I like the hair oil and I have purchased it myself.
And then I'm gonna do a hard left turn into acupuncture.
I Uh, A dear friend, as you would say, very sweetly,
gave me a session with this unbelievable body worker a
(38:54):
couple of days ago.
Speaker 2 (38:55):
If it's a friend that sent you the pie on Thanksgiving,
who no, no, no, it's okay. I was gonna say,
this friend's doing too much.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
Okay, listen, I get there on the table. This guy
is unbelievable. He immediately starts pressing me, going oh, yeah,
you're right hip here, giving me that structural understanding things.
He's like, also knows about Chinese medicines to out your tongue.
He's like, he looks at my tongue. He goes, oh,
you're like in a lot of emotional distress right now,
aren't you. I was like yeah. And then he's like,
(39:26):
we're gonna do emotional stuff on you today. I was
like great. He starts, he puts needles. He starts massaging.
This little point on my foot hurts so badly in
this way that I can't even fathom. He sticks a
needle boom boom, each foot, boom boom, each shin my stomach,
my hands the needles are in there. I'm doing deep breathing.
He's massaging in my head. I start weeping on the table.
(39:48):
It was yeah, yeah, oh yeah, baby, I start weeping
on the table.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Kept me in now, kept me in now, kept me
in now.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
He's like really sweet, He's like, let it go. I'm
like weeping, and then somehow just kind of eventually it stops.
My tears are getting use hands being sure he's massaging
in my head?
Speaker 4 (40:05):
What just tears or is there? At first?
Speaker 1 (40:08):
No nother sounds. At first there just was a steady
stream of hot tears. And then I said it no
those kinds of things. Yeah, yeah, fully, amazing fully, and
I feel just fine with it, like I'm not holding back.
I'm just kind of like, yeah, I mean I wasn't
going uh you know, but I was. Yeah, I was crying, okay,
and then somehow it kind of stops. So a key
point before he put the needles in, he was kind
(40:30):
of testing my flexibility. He was like, oh, wow, see
I can barely get this leg here this he presses
on this part of my sternum and I'm like, ow,
that's really tender there He's doing this old tender spots
on my neck. How that hurts. He brings the needles
out suddenly honey, I am flexible. My leg that twenty
minutes ago couldn't go here, it's going there. No, he
presses on the place on my sternum that was really
(40:51):
tender before painless. He presses on the place on my
foot that was really hurting a second ago. The fucking
pain is gone.
Speaker 4 (40:57):
Did he go, let's see how this surnom feels now?
Speaker 2 (41:00):
No?
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Oh, well he goes he well, yeah, like afterwards he
pressed on the spot I don't problem with I just
how does that feel now? And I was like, wow,
now that's fine. I mean it was. He was like,
you're gonna be really tired later. Don't eat any raw food,
eat like warming foods. M I sat up, drink some
broth instantly and whoa, felt the release and that passed
(41:23):
out dead asleep at like eight thirty, like couldn't stay awake, slept,
woke up the next morning, eyes open around seven thirty
eight am. Steady steam of tears from like eight to
twelve thirty. I texted you. I was like, this is crazy.
I'm just like crying and crying crying. He texted me.
He was like, how are you. I was like, well,
I uh slept really well. My body feels great, but
I can't stop crying. And he was like, yep, totally,
(41:46):
like do some squats, do some breathing. But this guy,
this guy, and I'm going to New York and I'm like,
I need to do weekly acupuncture. I have to get
back into it. Yes. I did acupuncture for a little
while for migraines like many many years ago, but didn't
commit because it was so expensive. And I just was like,
I can't do this like every week. But I'm feeling
like I got to I when's that's time you did.
Speaker 4 (42:09):
Ocupunction in I've done it once in my life.
Speaker 1 (42:11):
So calling all New York body workers and accupuncture practitioners,
I wonder if there's any when we're in New York together,
if there's any treatments that would be worth doing simultaneously.
And my job by that the listeners can't see my jaw,
my eyes and mouth is widened remembering a we're both
gonna in New York at the same time. Be I'm
doing a major call out of yeah to everyone. Of course,
(42:33):
because I'm gonna be there for a couple of months.
I need the bodywork, the treatments, all of it. We
have to do a major spa day.
Speaker 2 (42:40):
Yeah, I'm in the mood for that. I'm in the mood.
You know, I keep intending to. I mean, this is
the thing. It's like, I mean, I've said this a
thousand times, but just you know, oh, you know, in crisis,
then you try to start the meditation practice.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
It's like, I know, I know, no, and I'm really
I'm realizing truly over a month now, like the phone
just being like not in my life the way it's
been for so long. Journaling, Wow, the journaling is huge.
I actually have to do it is huge.
Speaker 2 (43:09):
And yet I resist because well, of course, meeting my
own mind. I guess, well, yeah, yet I'm afraid to
be without it.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
So what you got to get into journaling? And I'm
I gotta do the meditation now, need it now, Gotta
gotta gotta gotta.
Speaker 2 (43:27):
I mean, I guess I don't know will we ever
develop habits?
Speaker 1 (43:32):
I know, I don't know if I'll ever develop a habit.
It's really guess who hasn't in ten days? Me? Remember
the guaha, change my life? Guess who put it down me?
Oh wow, gotta get back.
Speaker 2 (43:47):
I mean the closest I've had is probably like my
consistency with with doing Tracy. Yeah, trying to think what
else I've had, but like I just I can't, you know, start.
There's a book Atomic Habits right once again healed by
a title, but it's you know, making like I think
it's like making one degree changes kind of thing like
(44:08):
add up big time, you know, so it's like instead
of these big changes.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
Well that's the thing, because I guess what I'm also off.
I was really onto my Melissa, and I was really
committed fifteen minutes a day and then like I got
home one night and I just like like literally was like, wait,
is my ass like different now? Like suddenly I was
like the fifteen minutes a day every days with you,
that's like hours a week, you know, yeah, doing the
math and I was like wait what? And then I
(44:36):
had to stop because I was getting from the planks.
I think I was getting this pain in my chest.
I pulled some muscles and I had to stop, but
I got to get back on. But yeah, but I
was doing stopped it stopped.
Speaker 2 (44:47):
Yeah, I mean the implementation of that which we know
we need to do in the refusal.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
And then then yeah, I know that's it. It's really
hard hard to It's absolutely hard to do anything. But
I also I want to just throw in because, as
the listeners might remember, I was watching it. I was
going to the Kardashians the last couple of months, Yes,
dipping in and out and becoming very consumed. Also, I
went on the Skims website, got the bras. I'm loving
the bras. Okay, oh my god, Yeah, huge news. But
(45:18):
then I bought I couldn't resist. I'm not I'm not
proud a Black Friday sale. I bought these sweatpants. He's
like Teddy Bear. I was like, these are gonna be
so cozy in New York in the wee ones. Yeah,
they're like I know, like Teddy Bear brown. Yeah, they're insane.
I put them on there. First of all, they're made
for someone who's six four, Like there's so much fabric
(45:38):
at the bottom. It's eerie. And they look, I'll be honest, awful,
it's just crazy like they look I don't know what.
I gotta put him back on. But I put them
on last night, like ooh, and I was like, we'll
I'll wear these in the home. But right they look
like they were made by someone who works at a
carnival like what by a bear?
Speaker 4 (46:00):
But what I actually meant.
Speaker 1 (46:01):
Was that I was gonna say by a carnival bear,
and I was like, I'm not going.
Speaker 2 (46:04):
To say that, like a like a nice teddy Bear
made them. Yeah, so it's like where you're like, I
wish I had that sweet this was made of the
Teddy Bear itself. This is lesser than the Teddy Bear.
But wait, did you only get the pants?
Speaker 1 (46:17):
No? I got the pants And there's a couple of
bras in there that haven't tried because the one skin
better Teddy bra I love. No, No, they're just like
regular bras.
Speaker 4 (46:23):
See, I feel like those Teddy Bear and I could
have this wrong, but those lounge sets that I've seen
from them, it only looks good if you're a.
Speaker 2 (46:30):
Full Teddy Bear. Yeah, right, teddy Bear pants and sure,
I mean you can do anything. Of course, you're right,
You're right.
Speaker 1 (46:36):
No, I almost I got to post a picture on
the pook Instagram. Yeah, because these pants are like there,
it's just comical how like bad they look on me.
I don't know, it's just anyway, it's we're like two
weeks out of Christmas. Can you believe this? Me alone
on Christmas in New York. You're never alone if you're
in New York. It's gonna be hard.
Speaker 4 (46:56):
Yeah, well I agree, and we're gonna work on that.
Speaker 1 (46:58):
We're gonna figure that out.
Speaker 2 (47:00):
I started googling like Christmas cocktail recipes and then also
Christmas mocktail recipes, like because like I can't like add
something to Christmas Eve that like doesn't account for like
the non drinkers.
Speaker 1 (47:13):
Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (47:14):
Like doing a fun thing this year and it's like
only for myself. But then you go, what is you know,
it's upsciting to drink.
Speaker 1 (47:23):
What I love a Pims cup and you can do
a virgin Pims cup.
Speaker 4 (47:27):
Kind of, But what is Pims cup again?
Speaker 1 (47:28):
I forgot already forgetting it was it was one of
those things where I was having Pims cups one Christmas.
I was completely obsessed with Pims cup. So what it
is is Pims liquor lemon juice ginger. It's really just
Pims lemon juice ginger. And then you do cucumber slice,
mint lemon veel, and orange wheal put on ice. And
(47:51):
what's great is that it's a pitcher cocktail, so you
can make it for a group. It's great because I
remember one.
Speaker 4 (47:55):
Christmas that's the other thing cup for everyone.
Speaker 2 (47:58):
You once had a party fifteen years ago and I
think there were two punch bowls and yes, yes, it
was so fucking cool. So I started looking at Christmas
punch too. But I'm trying to like, because I love
to me, the mocktail or to even use that word,
isn't even what I want, like a fun Christmas drink.
Speaker 4 (48:16):
It's like it shouldn't be like mimicking the cocktail.
Speaker 2 (48:20):
It has to be good on someone, like, for example,
like a mold cider is just delicious, right, like a
hot mold like apple cider. I don't even know mold is,
but you know what I mean, Like kind of like
that one. I have a Thanksgiving with the cranberry and
the cloves and the cinnamon sticks and the whole thing.
So I'm like, that is an option. I'm imagining this
like basically, okay, a couple of things. One eggnog. I
(48:42):
love it, I'm one, but I get the eggnog latte. Whoa,
I'd get it at Starbucks, Like one eggnog latte for
me please.
Speaker 1 (48:52):
Like yeah, and it's used to get the white chocolate
mocha at Starbucks after school? This child? Mmm, god, Chantico, right, no, Shantico.
Starbucks had a thing and I used to drink this
in high school and like I think it was the
ninth grade they had a drinking chocolate called Chantico or
(49:13):
Shantiico and it was like a little it was like
an espresso, but it was fucking chocolate, maybe the tato.
It was like a little thing and it was gents,
it was like the densest hot chocolate.
Speaker 2 (49:24):
What's that company? In New York they always have the
you know those the market the holiday markets in New York. God,
strolling through those, the one in Columbus Circle, the one
in like Bryant Park, you know.
Speaker 1 (49:37):
Honestly, are you ready?
Speaker 3 (49:38):
No?
Speaker 1 (49:38):
This is actually my first Christmas in New York City?
Can you believe that?
Speaker 3 (49:41):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (49:41):
Okay, well, yeah, maybe we'll go together because it's really fun, even.
Speaker 1 (49:46):
Though I'm not gonna I'm not gonna obsess and try
to lock you down. But yeah, no it did.
Speaker 2 (49:51):
Yeah, And you know, you go, you get the one
that would go into Columbus Circle of these huge gingerbread cookies,
gingerbread men and women, and and I get that and
the hotslider, just like calling them men and women that like, like's.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
Wanting to say Gingerman or whatever. Never even heard.
Speaker 2 (50:19):
I think they had a skirt, you know, it's very
much you know that sense. But and then hot cider,
and then.
Speaker 1 (50:25):
You're gonna have to offline. I'm gonna have to do
low stress here because I want to stress you out.
But I'm don't have to do some offline Christmas talk
with you. I know you're already thinking about me with
love for Christmas hugely, Okay, I know there's factors in motion. Okay,
it's what we'll do it.
Speaker 2 (50:39):
We'll do it offline, okay, and we'll have to celebrate
Christmas in some way with the with the show as
we did. We did a live You'll recall when I
was doing in California.
Speaker 1 (50:50):
We did a Christmas drink or whatever.
Speaker 4 (50:52):
We did ranch writers on Christmas.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
I was sobbing.
Speaker 2 (50:55):
No I had been because I had to stay in California.
Speaker 1 (51:00):
And of course pandemic hell yes, of course I remember
the Ranch writer Christmas yea.
Speaker 2 (51:06):
And I haven't heard from them in a while, but
I know I'm on their list.
Speaker 1 (51:09):
And I drank a couple of ranch writers last night.
I took a four pack of Ranch Writer to John's house.
Did he like them? Did he try it?
Speaker 4 (51:17):
Try?
Speaker 1 (51:18):
He's had a few? Know what flavor? This was just
a four pack of the vodka the chiltern? Yeah, I
think So.
Speaker 4 (51:24):
What color was it?
Speaker 1 (51:25):
I'm sorry, I know, pale, like a very pale color.
It's a color I don't even know.
Speaker 2 (51:33):
Yeah, I think I think I know the one. The
Jalapeno tequila one is a fave.
Speaker 1 (51:38):
I think I like the Paloma and I like the
tequila ones. Well, here's an ad for Ranch Writers. So
and they have been very generous to us, and we
hope I continue in the new year.
Speaker 2 (51:47):
Tequila ones are my favorite, despite loving vodka and other contexts.
Speaker 1 (51:51):
I want to say, And I think the next episode
of Poog we should do. I think it'll be really
fun to do a bit of a Christmas round up
wish list stuff. So I'm actually going to save it,
going to tease that for the next episode. And Jaquelin's
frozen for me. Well, I thought she was doing a
loaded inhale and pause before speaking, but she's just frozen,
(52:12):
and now of course wondering is she talking? Am I
frozen for her? Am I hearing the abyss. I think
I'm hearing the abyss alone. Okay, Jacqueline just texting. My
computer just died, so in a shocking twist of events,
I'm going to have to end this end this episode alone.
(52:33):
Thanks for listening. In case she doesn't come back, I'll
just say good night, good day, good night. That was pooh.
