The Browns are back at the microphones after a busy April hiatus, returning with their signature blend of basketball talk and life reflections that make Hoops and Crumbs so delightful.
Esteban kicks things off with a lively NBA playoffs update, sharing his excitement about matchups like Detroit versus New York and the Lakers taking on Minnesota. For basketball enthusiasts, his breakdown provides the perfect appetizer before the episode dives into deeper waters.
The heart of this episode revolves around a series of thought-provoking questions that Maria and Esteban take turns asking each other. Their answers reveal fascinating glimpses into their personalities and perspectives. When asked who he would choose as presidential advisors, Esteban thoughtfully selects family members known for their intelligence, along with his basketball coach for physical and emotional support—a choice that reflects both his values and priorities.
Perhaps the most engaging moment comes during their debate about whether money can buy happiness. This generational difference in perspective creates a moment many families will recognize and relate to.
Other highlights include discussions about what makes their blended family unique, who Maria would choose for a dream dinner party (Victoria Beckham, Oprah, and Jason Bateman at dim sum), and whether it's better to excel at one skill or be competent in many.
Listen now to experience this warm, genuine conversation between mother and son, and stay tuned for their promised Mother's Day special episode coming soon!

Speaker 1 (00:35):
I am eating not a cookie, but something very
delicious called a quiche Quichesomething very delicious called
a quiche.
But the special thing aboutthis quiche is that I used
leftover matzo bread fromPassover for the crust and it is
delicious Cheesy, bacon-y,onion-y deliciousness.
(00:59):
You don't like it?
No, I don't really love it.

Well, what's going on in theworld of basketball these days?
Something called playoffs.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah.
So the playoffs are happening.
I don't know if any of thelisteners are tuning in.
Probably if you're listening toa basketball podcast, you're
tuning into the NBA playoffs butwe've got a lot of exciting
(01:49):
teams, exciting games going on.
Actually, like right now, wehave the Detroit Pistons just
lost to the New York Knicks byone point.
Is that good or bad?
Well, I mean, it doesn't matterto me, but New York goes up 3-1
.
So if any of our listeners livein Detroit, that is very
upsetting for you.
I think New York is probably mypick to win.
Larger market team, older squad, more experience there in the
(02:14):
playoffs last year.
That's all happening Right now.
Lakers beating the MinnesotaTimberwolves by two points in
the first quarter, lebron Jamesleading scorer LeBron James
leading scorer Ding ding dingding ding.
Lebron has five points, hasn'tmissed yet.
So that's great Love to see thegoat go off.
(02:35):
I love to see the goat go off.
And then at seven we haveCeltics Magic, at nine we have
Pacers Bucks.
The other day, actually, we hadour first playoff series and
Oklahoma swept the MemphisGrizzlies 4-0.
(02:56):
They won by 50 points in gameone.
That is not a fun win.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Not a fun loss.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
It's a pretty fun win .
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But yeah, playoffs are happening All right, so it's
like Christmas time for you.
Yeah, it's great you know,games every other hour, so does
that mean that you don't need aChristmas gift this?
year no no, no, all right, allright, all right.
Well, it's been a long timesince we've been at the
microphones.
We've had a very busy April, sowe have not been very diligent
(03:30):
with podcasting.
One thing I've learned is thatyou really need to devote time
to researching what you're goingto talk about, devote time in
your calendar to be able tocreate these podcasts.
And we just got super busy andfell off the podcasting truck,
so we needed a bit of help Inpreparation for this episode.
(03:50):
We turned to the internet forsome inspiration and we found an
amazing list of 50thought-provoking questions.
So I think what we're going todo this is supposed to be our
fourth quarter convo, but Ithink what we'll do is we'll
just take turns asking eachother questions from the list,
and maybe we'll do five each.
Some of these questions are sofunny, some of them are a little
(04:14):
bit more thought provoking.
So what do you think?
Yep, sounds fun.
All right, do you want to gofirst, or should I ask first?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
You can ask the first question, okay.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I will ask the first question.
Okay, Esteban, imagine you'rethe president and you need to
have three people to assist you.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Who would you pick, mind the chewing?
I'm just snacking on a littlechocolate Easter egg here, but I
think that's hard.
Does it have to be people Iknow, or just anybody?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Well, I mean, I think it should be people, you know.
I mean not like they don't haveto be people in your friend's
circle, I think it's people ingeneral, not just an idea of a
person.
Hmm, okay.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I think, first off, I would probably go with my Uncle
Robert.
He's an engineer, a very smartengineer at that, and a very
funny one, and obviously I wouldlove to have family around To
keep in track with family.
I think who else this is?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
hard.
Well, you're not going to hurtanybody's feelings.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
No, I guess not.
I think I would probably gowith my Uncle Andy.
I think Uncle Andy is probablythe smartest person I know.
Those are two very smart peopleyou've picked.
And lastly, I think for purelyemotional support, because I
think I've already kind ofcovered the biggest two factors,
(05:52):
I think for emotional support,I would probably pick who's like
the funniest person.
I know the rock well, I don'tknow him, though.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I think jesus heart I know we need some hold music
while you're thinking we're notthat technologically advanced
yet I think coach row, coach row, all right, so that I could get
some basketball working whileI'm the president I guess you
(06:33):
will.
In order to be an effectiveleader, you should be in top
physical shape so that would bea good.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
That's a good way to look at it yeah, and then
obviously, you know, I can stillcontact my friends and family.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, yeah, this is just your inner circle.
You're who you go to themeetings with.
Ok, yeah, all right, goodanswers, uncle Robert, uncle
Andy, coach Ro.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, all right.
So next I have a question foryou.
There's a lot of questions here.
There's a lot of questions here.
Uh, what is?
Speaker 1 (07:14):
what do you think is keeping you from your complete
happiness?
Jeez man, you like the hardones.
Uh, when you clean your room,what?
Uh?
I don't think actually this isa.
This is a really good question,because I don't see happiness
as something to achieve orstrive for.
I think you should justnaturally choose to be happy,
(07:35):
and there's going to beroadblocks in your day, like
maybe you get a bad mark on yourtest or you have a bad
presentation or somebody bumpsyour car, but I don't think that
it should stop you from beingunhappy.
Like, I think your generaloutlook should just be happy.
(07:56):
And you're blowing your noseright now.
Everybody's going to be able tohear that, so we're just going
to keep talking about it.
Pauline man, hear that, sowe're just gonna keep talking
about it.
And oh, holland man, yeah, yeah, that can.
That also stops us fromcomplete happiness.
Allergies in this family theyrun rampant, but no, I think I.
(08:17):
I think you have to live yourlife as though it is your one
life.
You know you're happy every day.
Sometimes things go bad in aday, like you spill your milk,
but at the end of the day you'rejust happy.
So I don't think anything iskeeping me from complete
happiness.
I have a happy child, I have ahappy husband.
(08:40):
I have a happy life.
What more can you ask for?
Yeah, I know what I can ask for.
Yeah it's not your turn toanswer a question?
Oh, but it is.
It is your turn to answer aquestion yes, it is All right.
Let me ask you this whatproduct would you stockpile if
(09:02):
you found out it wasn't going tobe sold anymore?
What product?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
would I stockpile if it wasn't going to be sold
anymore?
So does this mean I have to goahead and purchase this product
with my own money?
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Well, just think of when it was COVID and everybody
bought toilet paper.
Like everybody stockpiledtoilet paper because they were
worried they couldn't.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
It wasn't going to be sold anymore.
Yeah, that's also pretty toughbecause there's a lot of
products out there.
You know that people want anddemand for I think I think I
would have to go with.
No, you're rushing me.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I don't know, I don't know, is it something to eat?
Is it something milk?
Oh, you're going to stockpilethe milk, are you?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
First of all, it's healthy.
Every you know people love milk, cereal, cookies.
Am I right?
Secondly, I drink milk.
And third, if milk is alreadylike relatively expensive, like
12 bag, $12 for a bag of milk,get out of here.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It's not $12 for a bag of milk.
Get out of here.
It's not $12 for a bag of milk.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
How much is a three bag?
Speaker 1 (10:14):
A bag that we buy of milk is maybe $4, maybe $5.
What milk are you buying?
The milk that you drink once aweek is probably $5 for a bag.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Okay.
Well, even then I could buy itfor $5.
It stops selling.
People are going gonna be ondemand for milk.
Bam, I just sell them a bunchof milk.
I just like quadrupled myprofit, basically okay.
If it's five, I sell it for 20.
Bam, that is roi.
Okay, then also, you can drinkit, cook with it and eat it.
(10:51):
And how are you gonna makedolce with no leche?
okay, all right, good answermilk yeah, so I think we flip it
back to me yeah, okay, yeah,okay.
What makes our family feelunique Like?
(11:15):
What is unique about it?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Oh well, I mean, it's not very unique because there's
lots of blended families, but Ithink you in in the house that
we live in together, it's ablended family right, there's
you and me and Jeff has hisfamily, and together we are one
family.
But I think what makes itunique is that we celebrate all
(11:37):
the traditions that we wouldcelebrate as separate families
together.
So, for example, if you don'tknow, listeners, esteban and I,
we are Christian.
We celebrate Christmas andEaster and all of the Christian
(11:57):
celebrations or festivities, andwe live in a Jewish home.
So you heard me say Passoverearlier.
So we celebrate every otherJewish tradition, um, every
other jewish tradition.
We often have big uh dinnershere for the jewish traditions,
(12:18):
like hanukkah, um yeah, so Ithink that makes it kind of
unique.
We get to do the best of bothworlds, which I really enjoy
doing actually yeah, um, I thinkit's your turn now.
Okay, oh, you know what I reallylike this question.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
If you could make one rule that everyone in the world
had to follow, what would it be?
That LeBron's the GOAT?
Okay, because I'm tired ofhearing that.
Mj's the GOAT.
What about Kobe?
Out of the conversation?
Okay, okay, because I'm tiredof hearing that MJ's the GOAT.
What about Kobe?
I'm out of the conversation,it's okay, okay.
So, if I'm being honest, onerule everybody had to follow, I
(13:03):
think it would be how do youenforce this rule?
Like, how is said rule enforced?
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Well, you're the president, with uncle Robert,
uncle Andy and coach row.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
So so so what you're saying is burpees.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Yeah, he would enforce it by burpees burpees
and suicides.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, so I think I think you have to.
This is hard.
I'm asking these hard questions.
You can ask them too, but thenI don't know.
You think better than me.
(13:43):
You have to finish yourcollegiate degree.
I'm that kid just fell.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Oh, that sucks.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
He just tripped on a stone and fell right on his face
.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Oh, poor kid well, you know what that's interesting
?
That everyone has to go toschool, because, uh, jeff and I,
we went to slovenia a few yearsago and the government pays for
you to go to university.
So most people in Slovenia,although it's a small country,
are university educated andthere is incentives for them, or
(14:17):
there are incentives for themto continue on with their
university studies.
So get master's degrees or PhDdegrees and it develops a very
interesting, educated, broadminded society.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah, that's what I think All right, because I would
also like pretty similar addincentives.
Also, I would probably makecommunity colleges more
educating.
So like they might not beperfect now because I don't have
the funding as other colleges,but I think community college
(14:52):
should be funded by thegovernment Alright.
So I think everybody shouldhave to finish out a term or
should at least have to go tolike one year of college or
university.
That's a pretty good rule sothat we have a better, more
educated, know world population.
(15:12):
That's cool.
So is it your turn or my?
well, I asked you a questionyeah, you just asked me a
question, so I think, okay, thisis a bit more of a silly one.
If you could eat dinner withthree people you don't know, who
would it be?
Where would you go and why?
How do I pick them if I don'tknow them?
(15:33):
Well, like, like, maybe threecelebrities?
Oh, like three people.
You've always wanted to meetpeople you've heard of okay.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Well, I would totally want to go for.
Dim sum is one, because I likethe communal aspect of dim sum
and it's usually pretty quick.
So if you're not having a goodtime, just eat your dumpling and
bounce.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
But then what if it becomes like the greatest time
ever and then you have to leave?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, but if it's the greatest time ever, you just
keep ordering dishes, so that'sone.
I would go for dim sum Two,three people, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah, you can't know them.
I can't know them.
Like maybe they can beconnected through a mutual
friend.
Like maybe your friends toldyou like I've always wanted you
to meet this dime, she's sofunny, she's just like you, she
loves fashion and cooking.
And her son Okay, there's oneloves fashion and cooking.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Oh, you know what, and her son.
Okay, there's one.
I would like to go for dinnerwith Victoria Beckham, because I
bet she's really funny.
Who's?
Speaker 2 (16:37):
that.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
She's what Posh Spice yo the youth today.
So I would go for dim sum withVictoria Beckham, Definitely
with Oprah.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Oh, this one woman From the Spice.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Girls.
Yes, posh Spice, posh SpiceOprah and Oprah.
Yep, yep, because I think Oprahwould probably be pretty funny
at dinner, and Jason Batemanbecause I think Jason Bateman is
hilarious.
What Jason Bateman, oprah P.
Jason Bateman is hilarious.
What Jason Bateman, oprah Posh.
Spice Dim Sum.
(17:14):
I'm buying.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
What Jason Bateman movies have you seen?
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Like almost all of them, and also what's one of the
greatest podcasts out thereSmartless Hello.
Oh, I'm thinking of the wrong.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Jason.
What's the person I'm thinkingof?
Speaker 1 (17:32):
I don't know, but I'm ready to ask you a question.
Okay, are you ready?
Yeah, shoot.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Yes, shoot.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
What do you feel is the hardest job in the world,
and why?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I'm thinking of Jason Statham, anyways, hardest job
in the.
Oh, I'm thinking of JasonStatham, anyways, hardest job in
the world.
I don't know, that's tough.
Um, maybe a nature specialistinteresting, like, like what the
wild kratts do.
Are those real people?
(18:10):
Yeah, they're real people, butthey just made a cartoon based
on their like.
They had a show where theyactually did this stuff, okay
but they just made a cartoon.
But like, like, imagine theintimidation of, like meeting
these animals for the first time, like I don't know, it's just
so difficult.
Either that or a long-distancepilot would also be difficult,
(18:38):
but that's not like difficult.
That's difficult in a differentway, where it's more just like
this is very tiring, like I feellike being a, a wildlife, like
photographer would be veryactually no wartime photographer
because they, because uncle andyou, papa's friend, not like my
(18:59):
birth blood uncle, he was awartime photographer.
He's been shot like his.
Like that is a hard job to have, because you can't carry
protection like as aphotographer.
You're not, you're not allowedto just walk in with a gun right
, you have to, you're.
You're just like, basically,you're just a civilian that goes
(19:21):
into battle and just takespictures.
That's a hard, hard job to have.
You, you don't have protection,you don't really have armor.
The only thing that I know hehad is like this insane life
insurance policy.
That's like the only thing thatthey really have.
Aside from like that, theyreally just don't get anything.
(19:43):
Like they, they just get food,some gear and then like a camera
, but they don't, they don't getto protect themselves.
They're just kind of out there.
It's, it's like a.
It's genuinely like.
Like a fish, like a random babyfish just swimming with a pack
of fishes being hunted by ashark.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Like a random baby fish just swimming with a pack
of fishes being hunted by ashark.
Well, and it is important workto do because atrocities have to
be documented, so I guess thatwould be a very difficult job.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, all right, your turn.
Oh yeah, my turn.
Huh, do you believe, money canor can't buy happiness?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I do not believe money can buy happiness.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
What.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
I do not believe it.
I think that it's.
I think you can be happywithout you know, the material
goods.
I think you can be happy in asmall house.
I think certainly it makes lifeeasier in some cases.
I certainly wouldn't be happyif I didn't have somewhere warm
(20:47):
to sleep at night.
And that takes money, you know,and it's nice to be able to
share your resources and moneywith people that don't have it.
It probably makes them happy tohave goodness come their way.
But I do not think you needmoney to be happy.
I think it helps you to becomfortable so that it takes
(21:11):
away any noise that can come upthat could stand in the way of
your happiness, but I don'tthink money buys you happiness.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
We're on opposite sides of this.
I absolutely think money canbuy you happiness.
I would be the happiest personin the world if I just had a
billion dollars in my bankaccount.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Yeah, I feel like Elon is probably not the
happiest person in the world.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Okay, but that's because he's not using his money
to his advantage.
He has so much money he can dowhatever he wants.
He can buy a lot of thingsright.
That would make me pretty darnhappy if I could just wake up
and be like oh, I'm bored, I'mgonna buy a new lamborghini
today.
Um, oh, shoot, oh, a new louisvuitton just just dropped.
(21:56):
I've got, I've got to get allall 10 colors of that bag yeah,
but what do you know?
what I?
I'm going to go take my 17thprivate jet to Paris.
I'm going to fly it myselfbecause I'm bored and I'm going
to drive there in my Maybach.
And then I'm going to eatcaviar in the pilot seat because
I can't be told what to do.
(22:17):
Oh my goodness.
And then I would have a bighouse with a go-kart track
around the back.
My gosh, I would love to berich.
I would have a huge house intexas where I could just put it,
because you know how much openland there is in texas.
I would just put a big go-karttrack back there and it would
(22:39):
just like like I would buy somuch land.
Okay, there would be a go-karttrack, an amusement park.
I don't even like amusementparks, I would have it just for
the flex.
A water park there would be foodstands.
Oh my gosh money can buyhappens.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
All right then.
Well, I guess we know who'sgoing to be working really,
really hard for these 17 jets.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Yeah, I don't think 17 jets is going to happen
anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Okay, I think you answered my question.
No, I answered your questionand you put it back.
I answered my own question.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
So this is the third question.
So now you're asking me thethird question.
Has it only been?
Speaker 1 (23:24):
three questions yes, oh man.
Okay, describe yourself in fivewords or less.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Go Five words or less .
Go Basketball, car Wait, no,Restart.
Sports, music, cars, fashionenthusiasts I mean I love all
those things.
I'm dressed very nicely rightnow.
I always listen to music.
I mean, I love all those things.
I'm dressed very nicely rightnow.
I always listen to music.
I do play sports and if I had aBMW M3, I'd be gone in a dash.
(23:52):
Okay, that was a quick one.
Yeah so now flip it back to me.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Yeah, you ask me.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Okay, okay, ask me, okay, okay, if, if we lost
everything we own today, but youcould keep three things, what
would those three things be?
Speaker 1 (24:13):
um so three material goods I like.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
I don't have to say like you don't not keep you not
me not, jeff not nothing living,like everything that's alive.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
You can keep Got it, so like you can keep the fish
tank Material goods.
What three material goods wouldI keep?
Your grandfather's pens, yourgrandfather's watch and, I guess
, my phone really because itwill have all of our pictures in
it.
(24:47):
Good answers, actually wait.
Phone really, because it willhave all of our pictures in it.
Good answers, uh, actually wait.
Yeah, I guess the phone, like Iwas gonna say well, there's a
box of pictures behind you thatI'd want to keep.
Maybe I would take that.
You know what I would take,that I would take the box of
things that are right behind you, because there's a bunch of
mementos from the past and thephone, like whatever the phone's
, the phone, the pictures arealready in the cloud.
Speaker 2 (25:07):

And I don't know, he's funny, I guess I think
probably Jackson.
I think there's other peopletoo that I could put up there,
like maybe, maybe Satya or Alec.
I don't really think so, though, but I don't know.
What do you?
Speaker 1 (26:31):
answer it.
I'm not going to answer, I'llbleep it out.
That's mean.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Just tell me no.
Who is it Bleep?
Who is?
Speaker 1 (26:40):
it.
I just answered it.
Okay, ask me one more question,and I and I think that's five
and five- no, because that wasyour fourth.
This is my fourth.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
So then we have one more.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
All right go ahead?
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Okay, yeah, I know.
Okay.
Do you think it's better tohave one really great skill,
like one skill you're reallyreally good at Like I'm just
insane at math or do you thinkyou'd rather have like a bunch
of skills that you're all right,like like I'm a math?
(27:15):
Would you rather be like supersmart at one thing or just smart
at multiple things?
Speaker 1 (27:24):
uh, I'd like to be.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
I think I explained that wrong.
I'll just have to cut out thesecond bit.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
I would like to be okay at many things, versus very
good at just one thing, becauseif you're okay at many things,
you can always improve andyou're also able to help in many
different areas.
Versus if you're just good atone thing, then what else do we
need you for?
Speaker 2 (27:52):
But you could base your whole career off that one
thing.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Why does that have to be about a career?
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Is that a?
Speaker 1 (27:56):
was it a career question?
Speaker 2 (27:57):
I don't know.
Oh, it's anything.
Question.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Yeah, so in life I'd rather know a lot about, I'd
rather know a little about a lotof things.
Like imagine going to a partyand you meet one guy and he was
like all I know to talk about ismilk and I'm just going to keep
talking to you about milk allparty long.
That guy would be such a bore.
But if you met the girl thatcould talk to you about milk,
(28:22):
juice, tea, coffee, water,chocolate, hot chocolate, matcha
, bubble tea man, you could goaround in circles and have such
a great conversation.
Yeah, I guess so that's myquestion, or that's my answer.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, I don't know if I could answer that question.
It's too difficult Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
Well, this is a very good question.
No, that means it's hard whatdo you do when you can't sleep
at night?
Speaker 2 (28:48):
What do I do when I can't sleep at night?
Do when you can't sleep atnight.
What do I do when I can't sleepat night?
Yeah, I watch television.
That's not that difficult forme to answer, and you know
that's what I do.
I go back onto disney plus,tune into a new, tune into a old
episode of a show I've alreadywatched a hundred times.
Um, sleep within minutes.
(29:09):
Very good, either that or, uh,I get bored of that and I play
2k okay, that's not what you'resupposed to do at night, but
okay, okay and for the finalquestion of a of the day
describe what your perfect daywould be from the.
(29:30):
Moment you wake up till bedtimeand like what would the times be
like Would?
Speaker 1 (29:34):
you wake up at one.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Would you wake up at five?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
That's a great question.
My perfect day would start withme going to the 7 am yoga class
in the nice weather and thencoming home and having a perfect
cup of coffee and a little bitof breakfast and then a lot of
(30:00):
kind of little tasks, like Ilike doing little tasks like
baking or tidying my closet.
It's so fun to play with myclothes it's like a little
Barbie clothes thing.
Maybe a little bit of a nap.
I love having a nap in aperfect day and then end it with
(30:23):
a very nice dinner and early tobed.
Wow, I sound like an old lady,so you're not going to throw any
work in there no, that's not aperfect thing.
I thought you loved work.
I do love work, it's true, Icould throw some work in there,
I'm not saying you should no,it's fun to have like throw in
(30:43):
like a demo or a presentation.
That goes really well.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
I would really like that.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
That would be great ok sounds cool.
Speaker 2 (30:53):

So grab a snack and tune in.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
So, mama, what are we eating today?
Speaker 1 (00:35):
I am eating not a cookie, but something very
delicious called a quiche Quichesomething very delicious called
a quiche.
But the special thing aboutthis quiche is that I used
leftover matzo bread fromPassover for the crust and it is
delicious Cheesy, bacon-y,onion-y deliciousness.
(00:59):
You don't like it?
No, I don't really love it.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It's not my favorite thing in the world.
I don't really like peppers.
I don't know if I really likeonions.
That it no.
I don't really love it.
It's not my favorite thing inthe world.
I don't really like peppers.
I don't know if I really likeonions that much, but you know,
I'm happy to see you're finallyenjoying something.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
Well, after this episode, we can make some Easter
egg cookies with the leftoverEaster eggs that we have
downstairs.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah, sounds fun.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
All right.
Well, what's going on in theworld of basketball these days?
Something called playoffs.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Yeah.
So the playoffs are happening.
I don't know if any of thelisteners are tuning in.
Probably if you're listening toa basketball podcast, you're
tuning into the NBA playoffs butwe've got a lot of exciting
(01:49):
teams, exciting games going on.
Actually, like right now, wehave the Detroit Pistons just
lost to the New York Knicks byone point.
Is that good or bad?
Well, I mean, it doesn't matterto me, but New York goes up 3-1
.
So if any of our listeners livein Detroit, that is very
upsetting for you.
I think New York is probably mypick to win.
Larger market team, older squad, more experience there in the
(02:14):
playoffs last year.
That's all happening Right now.
Lakers beating the MinnesotaTimberwolves by two points in
the first quarter, lebron Jamesleading scorer LeBron James
leading scorer Ding ding dingding ding.
Lebron has five points, hasn'tmissed yet.
So that's great Love to see thegoat go off.
(02:35):
I love to see the goat go off.
And then at seven we haveCeltics Magic, at nine we have
Pacers Bucks.
The other day, actually, we hadour first playoff series and
Oklahoma swept the MemphisGrizzlies 4-0.
(02:56):
They won by 50 points in gameone.
That is not a fun win.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Not a fun loss.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
It's a pretty fun win .
Speaker 1 (03:06):
But yeah, playoffs are happening All right, so it's
like Christmas time for you.
Yeah, it's great you know,games every other hour, so does
that mean that you don't need aChristmas gift this?
year no no, no, all right, allright, all right.
Well, it's been a long timesince we've been at the
microphones.
We've had a very busy April, sowe have not been very diligent
(03:30):
with podcasting.
One thing I've learned is thatyou really need to devote time
to researching what you're goingto talk about, devote time in
your calendar to be able tocreate these podcasts.
And we just got super busy andfell off the podcasting truck,
so we needed a bit of help Inpreparation for this episode.
(03:50):
We turned to the internet forsome inspiration and we found an
amazing list of 50thought-provoking questions.
So I think what we're going todo this is supposed to be our
fourth quarter convo, but Ithink what we'll do is we'll
just take turns asking eachother questions from the list,
and maybe we'll do five each.
Some of these questions are sofunny, some of them are a little
(04:14):
bit more thought provoking.
So what do you think?
Yep, sounds fun.
All right, do you want to gofirst, or should I ask first?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
You can ask the first question, okay.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
I will ask the first question.
Okay, Esteban, imagine you'rethe president and you need to
have three people to assist you.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Who would you pick, mind the chewing?
I'm just snacking on a littlechocolate Easter egg here, but I
think that's hard.
Does it have to be people Iknow, or just anybody?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Well, I mean, I think it should be people, you know.
I mean not like they don't haveto be people in your friend's
circle, I think it's people ingeneral, not just an idea of a
person.
Hmm, okay.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I think, first off, I would probably go with my Uncle
Robert.
He's an engineer, a very smartengineer at that, and a very
funny one, and obviously I wouldlove to have family around To
keep in track with family.
I think who else this is?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
hard.
Well, you're not going to hurtanybody's feelings.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
No, I guess not.
I think I would probably gowith my Uncle Andy.
I think Uncle Andy is probablythe smartest person I know.
Those are two very smart peopleyou've picked.
And lastly, I think for purelyemotional support, because I
think I've already kind ofcovered the biggest two factors,
(05:52):
I think for emotional support,I would probably pick who's like
the funniest person.
I know the rock well, I don'tknow him, though.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I think jesus heart I know we need some hold music
while you're thinking we're notthat technologically advanced
yet I think coach row, coach row, all right, so that I could get
some basketball working whileI'm the president I guess you
(06:33):
will.
In order to be an effectiveleader, you should be in top
physical shape so that would bea good.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
That's a good way to look at it yeah, and then
obviously, you know, I can stillcontact my friends and family.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, yeah, this is just your inner circle.
You're who you go to themeetings with.
Ok, yeah, all right, goodanswers, uncle Robert, uncle
Andy, coach Ro.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Yeah, all right.
So next I have a question foryou.
There's a lot of questions here.
There's a lot of questions here.
Uh, what is?
Speaker 1 (07:14):
what do you think is keeping you from your complete
happiness?
Jeez man, you like the hardones.
Uh, when you clean your room,what?
Uh?
I don't think actually this isa.
This is a really good question,because I don't see happiness
as something to achieve orstrive for.
I think you should justnaturally choose to be happy,
(07:35):
and there's going to beroadblocks in your day, like
maybe you get a bad mark on yourtest or you have a bad
presentation or somebody bumpsyour car, but I don't think that
it should stop you from beingunhappy.
Like, I think your generaloutlook should just be happy.
(07:56):
And you're blowing your noseright now.
Everybody's going to be able tohear that, so we're just going
to keep talking about it.
Pauline man, hear that, sowe're just gonna keep talking
about it.
And oh, holland man, yeah, yeah, that can.
That also stops us fromcomplete happiness.
Allergies in this family theyrun rampant, but no, I think I.
(08:17):
I think you have to live yourlife as though it is your one
life.
You know you're happy every day.
Sometimes things go bad in aday, like you spill your milk,
but at the end of the day you'rejust happy.
So I don't think anything iskeeping me from complete
happiness.
I have a happy child, I have ahappy husband.
(08:40):
I have a happy life.
What more can you ask for?
Yeah, I know what I can ask for.
Yeah it's not your turn toanswer a question?
Oh, but it is.
It is your turn to answer aquestion yes, it is All right.
Let me ask you this whatproduct would you stockpile if
(09:02):
you found out it wasn't going tobe sold anymore?
What product?
Speaker 2 (09:06):
would I stockpile if it wasn't going to be sold
anymore?
So does this mean I have to goahead and purchase this product
with my own money?
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Well, just think of when it was COVID and everybody
bought toilet paper.
Like everybody stockpiledtoilet paper because they were
worried they couldn't.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
It wasn't going to be sold anymore.
Yeah, that's also pretty toughbecause there's a lot of
products out there.
You know that people want anddemand for I think I think I
would have to go with.
No, you're rushing me.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I don't know, I don't know, is it something to eat?
Is it something milk?
Oh, you're going to stockpilethe milk, are you?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
First of all, it's healthy.
Every you know people love milk, cereal, cookies.
Am I right?
Secondly, I drink milk.
And third, if milk is alreadylike relatively expensive, like
12 bag, $12 for a bag of milk,get out of here.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It's not $12 for a bag of milk.
Get out of here.
It's not $12 for a bag of milk.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
How much is a three bag?
Speaker 1 (10:14):
A bag that we buy of milk is maybe $4, maybe $5.
What milk are you buying?
The milk that you drink once aweek is probably $5 for a bag.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Okay.
Well, even then I could buy itfor $5.
It stops selling.
People are going gonna be ondemand for milk.
Bam, I just sell them a bunchof milk.
I just like quadrupled myprofit, basically okay.
If it's five, I sell it for 20.
Bam, that is roi.
Okay, then also, you can drinkit, cook with it and eat it.
(10:51):
And how are you gonna makedolce with no leche?
okay, all right, good answermilk yeah, so I think we flip it
back to me yeah, okay, yeah,okay.
What makes our family feelunique Like?
(11:15):
What is unique about it?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Oh well, I mean, it's not very unique because there's
lots of blended families, but Ithink you in in the house that
we live in together, it's ablended family right, there's
you and me and Jeff has hisfamily, and together we are one
family.
But I think what makes itunique is that we celebrate all
(11:37):
the traditions that we wouldcelebrate as separate families
together.
So, for example, if you don'tknow, listeners, esteban and I,
we are Christian.
We celebrate Christmas andEaster and all of the Christian
(11:57):
celebrations or festivities, andwe live in a Jewish home.
So you heard me say Passoverearlier.
So we celebrate every otherJewish tradition, um, every
other jewish tradition.
We often have big uh dinnershere for the jewish traditions,
(12:18):
like hanukkah, um yeah, so Ithink that makes it kind of
unique.
We get to do the best of bothworlds, which I really enjoy
doing actually yeah, um, I thinkit's your turn now.
Okay, oh, you know what I reallylike this question.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
If you could make one rule that everyone in the world
had to follow, what would it be?
That LeBron's the GOAT?
Okay, because I'm tired ofhearing that.
Mj's the GOAT.
What about Kobe?
Out of the conversation?
Okay, okay, because I'm tiredof hearing that MJ's the GOAT.
What about Kobe?
I'm out of the conversation,it's okay, okay.
So, if I'm being honest, onerule everybody had to follow, I
(13:03):
think it would be how do youenforce this rule?
Like, how is said rule enforced?
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Well, you're the president, with uncle Robert,
uncle Andy and coach row.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
So so so what you're saying is burpees.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Yeah, he would enforce it by burpees burpees
and suicides.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Yeah, so I think I think you have to.
This is hard.
I'm asking these hard questions.
You can ask them too, but thenI don't know.
You think better than me.
(13:43):
You have to finish yourcollegiate degree.
I'm that kid just fell.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Oh, that sucks.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
He just tripped on a stone and fell right on his face
.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
Oh, poor kid well, you know what that's interesting
?
That everyone has to go toschool, because, uh, jeff and I,
we went to slovenia a few yearsago and the government pays for
you to go to university.
So most people in Slovenia,although it's a small country,
are university educated andthere is incentives for them, or
(14:17):
there are incentives for themto continue on with their
university studies.
So get master's degrees or PhDdegrees and it develops a very
interesting, educated, broadminded society.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
Yeah, that's what I think All right, because I would
also like pretty similar addincentives.
Also, I would probably makecommunity colleges more
educating.
So like they might not beperfect now because I don't have
the funding as other colleges,but I think community college
(14:52):
should be funded by thegovernment Alright.
So I think everybody shouldhave to finish out a term or
should at least have to go tolike one year of college or
university.
That's a pretty good rule sothat we have a better, more
educated, know world population.
(15:12):
That's cool.
So is it your turn or my?
well, I asked you a questionyeah, you just asked me a
question, so I think, okay, thisis a bit more of a silly one.
If you could eat dinner withthree people you don't know, who
would it be?
Where would you go and why?
How do I pick them if I don'tknow them?
(15:33):
Well, like, like, maybe threecelebrities?
Oh, like three people.
You've always wanted to meetpeople you've heard of okay.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Well, I would totally want to go for.
Dim sum is one, because I likethe communal aspect of dim sum
and it's usually pretty quick.
So if you're not having a goodtime, just eat your dumpling and
bounce.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
But then what if it becomes like the greatest time
ever and then you have to leave?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah, but if it's the greatest time ever, you just
keep ordering dishes, so that'sone.
I would go for dim sum Two,three people, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Yeah, you can't know them.
I can't know them.
Like maybe they can beconnected through a mutual
friend.
Like maybe your friends toldyou like I've always wanted you
to meet this dime, she's sofunny, she's just like you, she
loves fashion and cooking.
And her son Okay, there's oneloves fashion and cooking.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Oh, you know what, and her son.
Okay, there's one.
I would like to go for dinnerwith Victoria Beckham, because I
bet she's really funny.
Who's?
Speaker 2 (16:37):
that.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
She's what Posh Spice yo the youth today.
So I would go for dim sum withVictoria Beckham, Definitely
with Oprah.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Oh, this one woman From the Spice.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Girls.
Yes, posh Spice, posh SpiceOprah and Oprah.
Yep, yep, because I think Oprahwould probably be pretty funny
at dinner, and Jason Batemanbecause I think Jason Bateman is
hilarious.
What Jason Bateman, oprah P.
Jason Bateman is hilarious.
What Jason Bateman, oprah Posh.
Spice Dim Sum.
(17:14):
I'm buying.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
What Jason Bateman movies have you seen?
Speaker 1 (17:18):
Like almost all of them, and also what's one of the
greatest podcasts out thereSmartless Hello.
Oh, I'm thinking of the wrong.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
Jason.
What's the person I'm thinkingof?
Speaker 1 (17:32):
I don't know, but I'm ready to ask you a question.
Okay, are you ready?
Yeah, shoot.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Yes, shoot.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
What do you feel is the hardest job in the world,
and why?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
I'm thinking of Jason Statham, anyways, hardest job
in the.
Oh, I'm thinking of JasonStatham, anyways, hardest job in
the world.
I don't know, that's tough.
Um, maybe a nature specialistinteresting, like, like what the
wild kratts do.
Are those real people?
(18:10):
Yeah, they're real people, butthey just made a cartoon based
on their like.
They had a show where theyactually did this stuff, okay
but they just made a cartoon.
But like, like, imagine theintimidation of, like meeting
these animals for the first time, like I don't know, it's just
so difficult.
Either that or a long-distancepilot would also be difficult,
(18:38):
but that's not like difficult.
That's difficult in a differentway, where it's more just like
this is very tiring, like I feellike being a, a wildlife, like
photographer would be veryactually no wartime photographer
because they, because uncle andyou, papa's friend, not like my
(18:59):
birth blood uncle, he was awartime photographer.
He's been shot like his.
Like that is a hard job to have, because you can't carry
protection like as aphotographer.
You're not, you're not allowedto just walk in with a gun right
, you have to, you're.
You're just like, basically,you're just a civilian that goes
(19:21):
into battle and just takespictures.
That's a hard, hard job to have.
You, you don't have protection,you don't really have armor.
The only thing that I know hehad is like this insane life
insurance policy.
That's like the only thing thatthey really have.
Aside from like that, theyreally just don't get anything.
(19:43):
Like they, they just get food,some gear and then like a camera
, but they don't, they don't getto protect themselves.
They're just kind of out there.
It's, it's like a.
It's genuinely like.
Like a fish, like a random babyfish just swimming with a pack
of fishes being hunted by ashark.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
Like a random baby fish just swimming with a pack
of fishes being hunted by ashark.
Well, and it is important workto do because atrocities have to
be documented, so I guess thatwould be a very difficult job.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, all right, your turn.
Oh yeah, my turn.
Huh, do you believe, money canor can't buy happiness?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
I do not believe money can buy happiness.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
What.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
I do not believe it.
I think that it's.
I think you can be happywithout you know, the material
goods.
I think you can be happy in asmall house.
I think certainly it makes lifeeasier in some cases.
I certainly wouldn't be happyif I didn't have somewhere warm
(20:47):
to sleep at night.
And that takes money, you know,and it's nice to be able to
share your resources and moneywith people that don't have it.
It probably makes them happy tohave goodness come their way.
But I do not think you needmoney to be happy.
I think it helps you to becomfortable so that it takes
(21:11):
away any noise that can come upthat could stand in the way of
your happiness, but I don'tthink money buys you happiness.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
We're on opposite sides of this.
I absolutely think money canbuy you happiness.
I would be the happiest personin the world if I just had a
billion dollars in my bankaccount.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Yeah, I feel like Elon is probably not the
happiest person in the world.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Okay, but that's because he's not using his money
to his advantage.
He has so much money he can dowhatever he wants.
He can buy a lot of thingsright.
That would make me pretty darnhappy if I could just wake up
and be like oh, I'm bored, I'mgonna buy a new lamborghini
today.

Would you rather be like supersmart at one thing or just smart
at multiple things?
Speaker 1 (27:24):

Speaker 2 (27:27):
I think I explained that wrong.
I'll just have to cut out thesecond bit.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
I would like to be okay at many things, versus very
good at just one thing, becauseif you're okay at many things,
you can always improve andyou're also able to help in many
different areas.
Versus if you're just good atone thing, then what else do we
need you for?
Speaker 2 (27:52):

thing.
Speaker 1 (27:54):

rather know a little about a lotof things.

That guy would be such a bore.
But if you met the girl thatcould talk to you about milk,
(28:22):
juice, tea, coffee, water,chocolate, hot chocolate, matcha
, bubble tea man, you could goaround in circles and have such
a great conversation.
Yeah, I guess so that's myquestion, or that's my answer.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, I don't know if I could answer that question.
It's too difficult Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
