Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, they talk better than they tell me. These are
the radio blogs on the Fresh Show. I guess I'll
stick around for that. Like writing in our diaries, except
we say them aloud. We call them blogs. Paulina, Yes, go,
thank you so much, dear blog.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
It's that time of the year, you know, in the
in the big city, big city, big dreams, where you
don't know the temperature, and like what's gonna happen right
the rest of the day, Like if you wake up
it's cold and it gets hot, then it gets cooler, right,
and then on top of that, some days have been
really hot and then some days got cold again, Like
I think today's chillier than the previous couple of days.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Okay, okay, So for.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Me, I don't sleep well unless I've got like a
fan running. I sleep like with just underwear or like
pants or whatever, like like shorts and just oversized shirt.
So I try to get into bed comfy, but sometimes
like it's just still hot. I don't know. I don't know.
To me, I need to be very comfortable to sleep
otherwise it is a fight in a battle. And so

(00:58):
it's been a fight in a battle because my husband
doesn't believe it's time to put the air conditioning on.
And I overheard in this room my lovely girlies Kaylin
and Kiki, said, your ace's already been on. Oh yeah, you.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
Never my heater never went on?

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Your heater?

Speaker 1 (01:13):
I never. I never used heat during the winter. No,
I never used heat.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
What do you do?

Speaker 1 (01:18):
I keep the house at sixty and it depends in
the season. Sixteen anybody in sixty six and sixty eight
year round, year round? Yeah, maybe one or two days.
Ever did the heater come on? Maybe in this season.
Everything has to be it has to be bone chillingly
cold you otherwise the houses got to be meat locker cold.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
You wear like hoodies and stuff and that. Sure, yeah,
I don't like that, so like that's not gonna happen.
That's why I put the heat on. But I have
to be so comfortable in my temperature, and I haven't
been lately because it's been so hot. So I put
on the ace, and I didn't tell my husband because
he's like, no, it's not time yet, Like we're not
going to go back and forth right and turn the
heat back on in a couple of days, because you

(01:58):
know it's me. I will, And I was like okay,
whatever it's is.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Not a problem.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
I don't know, And people say that you're not supposed
to do that, like we're not.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
I mean the first time of the year that you
turn it on, it like smells weird. But I mean
other than that, I don't know why you can't just
put set your thermostet where you want to set it
and then you get what you know what I mean,
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Maybe it's like a like a mindset of like first
gen and kids too, because growing up we couldn't do
a lot of things. But my mom never let me
switch it, like there was no back and forth. Once
the AC was on, that's it, Like you don't go
back and forth, you know.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
People Paulina, people talk about like having you know, you're
being aligned on religion and politics in marriage and like
money management. Yes, I think household temperature is something that
it's a deal breaker for me. Like if you're somebody
who needs to sleep at like seventy five degrees or
seventy or whatever. No, no, no, I go to the hotel
and I go it goes it's low. There's nothing more

(02:49):
luxurious to me. And walking into the hotel room and
setting it as low as it will possibly go, and
then being so cold that I wonder, like, you know,
why am I? Why do I choose to be this way?
To me? Worth every it has to be now other
people that need it warm. If you have to sleep
in the warmth, then it would never work between us
because I need to sleep in the cold, because you

(03:09):
can always get warmer, but you can never get colder.

Speaker 2 (03:12):
That is a fact. That is a fact. But if
it's winter and it's you know, negative five, then I'm
putting the heat on and I'm gonna get nice and
cozy and comfy. But when I know it's seventy five
degrees outside and even the floors are so sticky humid
in the house because it's just it's that warm, there's humidity.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
So how do you show that your husband's either on
or off?

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, he's on or off, but he doesn't want to
turn it on. His whole thing was, don't turn it
on because we're not ready, like it's not time. But
he was at work and he's a fireman, so he
did not come home that night. Right, he sleeps at
the firehouse. And you want to know what I did
for me and my child because I enjoy comfort and
I want us all to sleep well. Is I put
it on and guess what, it ran just fine, and
then I shut it off really quick.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
I've never heard of this.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
I was so scared I turned it off.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
It's a thing. It is a thing.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
I grew up like that. My sister would not play around.
No touch in my thermostat. That was tign the AC on,
hoping a window, get a fan.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Well, that's probably because of the cost. But I don't
know if it's a problem to go hot to cold
in your house, Like, I don't know if it's a
I don't think it's a mechanical issue that I'm aware
of to turn the heat on one day and turn
the cool on the next day. But I know people
that were like, don't turn the AC on because you
could save money to open a window, because it's too expensive.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Not the same.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, I gate keep my thermostat from my house now,
Like I have the app on my phone. Big Tim
does not have the app, and so, like you know,
he'll get jazzy and try to touch it at home
and I'll look at my phone like, oh no, you don't,
and I'll put it back up.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
So even when you're not there, he can't control the temperature. No,
And I don't know why.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
It's really just a jerk, like I'm really just an
idiot for that.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
But it's just a thing like why is this on
sixty five?

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Bro? It's not that because he's there and you're not.
Right now, you're here in this room. Yes, and he's
at home, but he still doesn't get to control with
the temperature as he's in bed.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
No, because when I'm bored, I open the app like, oh,
what the hell?

Speaker 2 (04:53):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
This is a fundamental issue you've got to be aligned on.
It's actually sleeping temperature. You've got to be aligned.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Yeah. We fight a lot about house things like that.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
You want to know.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
The other latest one is we have one of those mattresses.
I don't ask. He's a people that goes back and forth.
It reclines. Oh the adjustable yes, okay, So he decided
he wants to buy an adjustable bed whatever the frame thing,
but doesn't want to adjust and I actually like sleeping
with a little bit of an incline. I come back
and that man puts that right back down. So now
we're fighting over that.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
So the whole bed it doesn't have like halves like
mine has.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Halves waiting splurge for the half I wish we did.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
So you either have to have you have to have
it up and everybody's up or down.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yes, he won't do it, So now we fight over
the head like we have to be aligned, you.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Guys, that's a little different though. I don't think I
want to. I don't want to sleep in a hospital bed.
Everybody like, I don't know about that. And by the way,
I guess it is according to the interwebs and the text,
it is bad. You can cluse unnecessary stress in your
h BAC by switching between your heater and cooler. Yeah,
when not done correctly, attending to make drastic changes. But
you're not trying to go sixty five to ninety or something.

(06:00):
I mean, you're like, you know, it's you want it.
Some days you wanted maybe seventy and some days you
wanted sixty eight or I mean, we're not talking about like,
I don't know how big is the swing. I don't know.
You just want what you want. I just want what
I want is important.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Don't want to be sticky in my own house.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
No nobody wants you. Nobody wants you sticky. You should
tell him you want me sticky? Well, no, no. If
you say it like that, it might he might say yes.
The minutes said, never mind, waiting by the phone is new,
and next, why did somebody get ghosted after a whose year?
