Ever wondered what a snow day in Nashville, some Cava wine, and a run-in with a K&M listener could lead to? We kick off this episode with some laughter and misadventures, as Kat shares a delightful encounter with Chris, a beloved listener and industry veteran. His stories brighten our day, and we couldn't help but imagine him hosting his own podcast. Amidst giggles, we also reflect on the stress of a past hacking incident and our comedic exchange with Bank of America, celebrating the journey from chaos to calm, all while humorously trying to fend off future hacking attempts.
Life threw Producer Sara a curveballs with an unexpected jury duty experience involving a significant trial where she finds herself about to be sequestered for days on end. We chat about the absurdity of being cut off from technology and everyday comforts, brainstorming creative ways to keep entertained during those 14 tech-free days, like packing a bingo game. Our camaraderie shines through in these tales of unique life events, including the bittersweet holiday season with our dear friend Theresa before her passing, and an adventurous RV trip to the Florida Keys that added some sunshine to the journey.
As we embark on an impromptu audio vision board session for 2025, we're dreaming big and aiming high! From podcasting and writing aspirations to winning the lottery and finding work-life balance, we lay out our goals with humor and heart. Personal connections and cherishing the joys of life take center stage, as Kat and Moose explore the importance of living authentically, with insights from astrology expert Tammy Roth. Join us in embracing our true selves for a transformative future, and remember, being you is the key to world peace!

(09:56):
recipe required a full bottle ofred wine.
Cool, um, and you know, like,when you doesn't it get cooked
out, though it does yeah, yeah,yeah, when you cook with wine.
The alcohol gets cooked out, butthe the flavor is is a part of
the whole thing, and so thedinner was just stunning.
Yes, it was, it was stunning.
And then we also got to um.
(10:18):
We played like kind of likefamily games together, and that
was really fun, and um, you hategames though I don't, I love
games, actually love.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Maybe it's me.
Maybe it's me, I hate games.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Okay, so yeah yeah, and we have a close friend who
hates games, but not me.
I love games, I like games, umand so, but a couple of things
that that stand out to me is oneof the nights, um, I stayed in
a room that had a panoramic viewof the san francisco bay bridge
so crazy.
Not the golden gate, but thepictures, yeah, and it looked
(10:51):
amazing.
It was awesome.
It was awesome, and so havinglike that panoramic view of the
bay and just being that close tothe water was amazing.
Yeah, visiting the ferrybuilding hog oyster was amazing.
Their clam chowder was redonk.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
It was so good.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Yes, I love clam chowder, me too.
And then we visited arestaurant called Skomas in
Sausalito and Sausalito is mynew where I have dreams of
having a residence, of course,like where I could do like half
of my life on the west coast andhalf here in Nashville um
Salsalito.
(11:27):
I only would need four or fivemillion dollars to make it a
couple mil yeah, it's a couplemil, but I mean, hey, our
podcast is gonna do that in 2025.
So 2025 definitely yep and thenI got to visit the one and only
Sarah Lee's Vineyard, which isthe La Crema Vineyard.
(11:48):
That is so cool In Healdsburg,california, and it was exquisite
and, sarah, I bought you apresent there.
What I can't?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
wait to show it to you.
Fun, thank you, that's sweet Inadvance.
What did you get me?
Speaker 1 (12:05):
I got you something that I think doesn't measure up
to what I got.
Sarah, of course, yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
I could tell, naturally, yeah, well, yeah, it
doesn't it doesn't.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
It doesn't mean I love you any less.
And I got you something elsefor Christmas that is not from
La Crema, but at La Crema Iliterally had to go.
What can I get moose?
Because I found this thing forSarah, that I get moose, because
I found this thing for Sarahthat I was just like like I
gotta do it, and so I got youkind of a trinket thing there,
uh moose, did you talk to themabout how they changed your
(12:35):
chardonnay?
Speaker 2 (12:36):
and then, like you, didn't you should have station.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
I being such a faithful drinker of them, you
are that sounded bad.
Faithful customer of theirs,consumer follower cult member.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Yeah, um so, but that was really lovely.
So, um, so, that in short is iswhat you forgot.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Something you forgot about the?
Um driverless car that you didthe tour.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Oh yeah, I I've been telling people about this.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Oh, it was so cool.
It's called Waymo and thesecars are Jaguars, yeah, and my
understanding is that Waymo is aGoogle company and basically,
like they are driverless carsthat you basically order like an
Uber.
There's an app and it comes toyour location and you literally
it has your name or yourinitials on the top of the car,
(13:30):
like a taxi.
So when it was pulled up, itsaid Katie on mine, and then you
have to like tell it I'm hereat the car and then it unlocks
the car for you and you get inthe car and there is no person
in there driving and it takesyou wherever you want to go and
it's the safest.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
No, Did you see on Monday all this news that this
guy got stuck in his Waymo onMonday going to LAX and it was
doing circles in the parking lot?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
And.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
I was going to ask you what brand you used, because
they said it was Waymo.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
It's kind of cool Like this is the kind of stuff
we saw when we were kids, likewatching the Jetsons, you know.
Like you know and I was justtelling Amoose the other day
that I saw a post of someone alady leaving the hospital, like
maybe post surgery, and hernurse was wheeling her out and
the lady just called her Teslaand it just pulled right up
(14:30):
around and she got in thepassenger seat and it drove her
home Crazy.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I mean that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
These are the times they should allow that, but
still kind of crazy, my my verylimited experience, I feel like
it's always really important tosay that okay, um was that it
felt safer to me than if I weredriving.
Yeah, it felt safer to me thanif an uber driver were driving
(14:58):
it for sure much safer to methan a taxi driver.
Interesting because it it showsyou on the screen.
It shows you by.
I don't know if it's likeinfrared or satellite or
whatever it is, but it wouldliterally, if there are three
people walking on the sidewalkbeside you, you can see them on
the screen.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Yeah, it's like they see the people.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
They see the cars, they see the traffic lights, and
when you look at the screen,you can see the lights turning
yellow, and so it'll slow downand stop.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
And then there was one point in time where the
light turned yellow and it spedup to go through it.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
It was like very intuitive, interesting.
Wow, that's so cool, it wasreally cool it was really,
really neat.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
The.
So back to the jetsons,something we didn't cut.
Oh, we need to still cover whateveryone did.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I need to do that and then we need to talk about the
drones.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I'm only going to give it 90 seconds on the drones
because it's a little post, butwe have to hit on the drones
because I'm a big fan of a dronefan.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yep, yep.
All right, absolutely so, moose, what'd you do for Christmas?
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Um, so I um, uh, a good friend that we have
mentioned on the podcast, teresa, who was walking a cancer
journey.
I don't know why we say it thatway, but she had cancer and she
, uh, she did pass away over thebreak, and so I spent some time
with her before that happenedand and we can get into some of
(16:20):
that later I'd rather not, butI'm still processing but after
that I already had a tripplanned with Sarah and my sister
to go down to the Florida Keysbetween Christmas and with the
RV yeah, with the RV and camp,and so, well, that does not suck
(16:40):
, no it wasn't.
It didn't suck at all, it wasreally fun.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Shorts and T-shirts, it was 70 degrees.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
So, yeah, came back and just have been back at work
as we do.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
I came back to jury duty, oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Tell us about that, Sarah.
Like, how did you even find outthat you were a candidate?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
What's funny is I received a call.
It was a voicemail, in fact,like maybe mid-December.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I'm sure you answered it.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Did you answer it or did you no it?
was like a voicemail and it waslike from the Davidson County
Police Department and I'm like,oh shit, what have I done?
And me too.
I immediately assume, yeah, itwas basically like you missed
your jury, blah, blah, blah.
And I'm like jury, I never gotjury.
And so it turns out they sentit to an old address.
(17:36):
And so I went online and likeexplained well, sure enough,
when we got back from I don't Idon't know what it was, it
must've been when I got backfrom Australia, I got a another
jury notice to like you've beensummoned, you've got to be there
on the eighth.
And so the eighth has come andgone, okay, so what can you say?
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Cause I know I know some things that I'm not
supposed to know.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
You know some things we're not allowed to talk about
now, anyway, so I've beensequestered.
I made the jury duty.
I was basically nashville fortwo days at in court while they
selected the jury somehow I gotselected, convinced that it
wasn't gonna happen becausethere's 105 people yeah, yeah,
I've been sequestered.
(18:21):
I have to go out town for twoweeks.
No technology, no phonesliterally no phone, no wine I
can't drink.
I I am on restriction.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
I mean like, but like is that?
Can they make you do?
Speaker 2 (18:41):
that's what I said literally, she's not allowed to
drink.
And I was like so, put it inyour bag.
And she was like no, they lookthrough your bag.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
They're going to go through our bag when we, when we
can't have her phone.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Cat she can't have her phone.
Oh my God.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
So I'm like excited to be in it, but also like I
kind of feel like I'm in jail alittle bit yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
So, anyway, I'll be able to say more, maybe in a
couple of weeks when I get back.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
And it's like a big case.
I'll just say that, yeah, yeah,that'd be interesting.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Here's what I will say to you, sarah, is that, like
I am comforted as a citizen ofthe state of Tennessee and a
citizen of the United States, Iam comforted by someone like you
.
I'm comforted by you sitting ona jury.
Oh, thanks, like I think that Ithink that you're wise and I
(19:34):
think that you, um, are a greatcritical thinker and I think
that you're very fair Um and um,I I'm really really glad that
you're serving and also, like Iliterally am over here thinking
to myself thank God, that is notme.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Like I told my dad and he's like that sounds
horrible.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I'm like I know, like I would so much rather be home,
but I'm also like, so it'sgoing to be interesting, she's
got to take like a fidgetbecause of her ADHD.
I was like you're not going tobe able to sit there that long I
was like you need to take anotebook or something that you
can like.
Yeah, Fidget with.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
It's like could we maybe Google like advice from
former jurors, like yeah, that'sa good idea Like do you need,
like exactly like a fidget?
Spinner.
Do you need like little, likeyou know, those little popping
plastic?
Things you know, it's likethere's got to be, I don't know,
like not having your phonealone.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
I agree, and she can't wait.
She doesn't have tv, shedoesn't have radio, she doesn't
have any substances to make herfeel good.
I um it like she's going tohave to be a person.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
I told her.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I was like you're going to have to start writing
poetry or something.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
I have a whole.
We have to pack for 14 dayslike not knowing if we have
laundry or any of that kind ofstuff.
So I'm like full on packing fora two week trip.
And the second bag is what I'mcalled my leisure bag, which
includes an array of board gamesand puzzles and like books and
(21:16):
things to do Like before we hadcell phones.
It's kind of.
It's kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'll tell you something I told her to take.
I bought on Amazon clearancelike 12 years ago and I've never
used it.
It's a little bingo thing whereyou like roll it and like a
number comes out.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
and then there's a whole bunch of things, a legit
bingo game.
I'm bringing it.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
They told her they were like bring games.
And I'm like that's where it'smy worst nightmare.
I am fine to serve on a jury ofa murder and do all of those
things.
I don't want to hang out withyou when that is over and they
have to like go.
They do everything to gettogether.
If they're going on a walk,they go for a walk together.
(21:57):
If they go to dinner, they haveto be escorted and I'm like
that makes me feel like um, likehandmaid's tale or something
you know yes, interesting, yes,and it also it makes me wonder
like you are probably gonna meetthe neatest people.
I agree, I know and I just foundout enough about the case to
(22:19):
google it to figure out what itis, but I can't tell her
anything, which?
I'm not allowed to knowanything because yeah, and so I
have been texting you, kat andanother friend of ours offline
going.
Yeah, yeah, she doesn't knowthis, but here's what I found in
this article and it's it'sreally.
It's gonna be fascinating andinteresting after the fact.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Yeah it'll be cool.
I think it's gonna be televisedand the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
So, oh, I'm watching it yeah, and in I know like in
our, in our friend group Moose,I know you and our other friend
are gonna like obsess over thisyes, and.
I, I will just be like in thecorner, like praying for Sarah

How are you in your body, what?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
did it feel like in your body.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
You know it's like.
I'm very, very curious aboutthe whole process.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
I've already seen.
I've already in the future seenSarah on Dateline as, like one
of the jurors talking about it,which I mean it could definitely
be a Dateline story.
I'll just say that.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Oh, I just want to keep teasing it.
Moving on, moving on, moving on.
I'm not allowed to talk aboutit.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
All right, guys, I know I didn't give you any time
to plan for this, but we'recreating a audio vision board
right now of your life in 2025.
Okay, I'll go first.
Five things that I want to puton my vision board for 2025
include podcasting, coaching,writing, traveling with friends
(23:58):
and family.
I want to bring more people onthe trips we go on.
And then being myself.
Those are my five things.
And then being myself.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Those are my five things.
Okay, I want travel as well.
I want to visit family more.
I have family that's far fromme and they're getting older, so
I want to see them.
I want to become a walker.
(24:28):
Oh, I like that I might borrowthat one.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
I'd like to win the lottery, please.
Okay, that'd be great.
You got to believe it in orderto achieve it.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Come on, baby, I also got to play, which I don't.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Mm-hmm.
Oh yeah, so there's that.
I thought that was your fifththing is that you were going to
play Me too.
I was like that's fun.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
The last thing is play more For real, not the
lottery Just play.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Ok, I agree.
Agree, 100 hundred percent.
I love that.
Work is not in one of ours.
Okay, go cat.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
It's funny because um work is in mind, but in a way
that I think is more healthy forme.
I want to be.
I want to find myself in theseat as an artist manager that I
want to be in and where I cando my best work.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Because I have.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
I have not been in that place in a couple of years
now and that doesn't mean Ihaven't done my work.
It just means that, like I have, I have struggled bus through
the past couple of years and Iam ready to go like, oh, I know
how to do this and I know how tomotivate a team and I know how
to lead a team and I know how todo all the things, and so I
(25:50):
really want to get better atthat.
Um, I have big educationalgoals on the body work side of
things.
Um, I am going to study tobecome a teacher of the modality
that I practice.
Yeah, I'm very, very excitedabout that.
Um, because you know, I'vealways heard people say, if you,
if you can teach it, you knowit.
And there's something, there'ssomething still about being at
(26:14):
the side of the table where Ihave this like do I really know
what I'm doing?
And I know that that's alifelong pursuit and everybody
feels that way to some extentand blah, blah, blah.
But like I want to really feelmore confident.
Yeah, and I already do feelconfident at the side of the
table, but I want to feel evenmore confident, yeah, and I want
to take more vacations.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yes, great, I have been waiting for you to say this
, yes.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Love it.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
I do not play enough.
You don't.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I don't.
And having two weeks off aroundthe holidays, I don't.
And in having two weeks offaround the holidays, although I
traveled, which was great, Ispent time with family, which
was great, having space awayfrom both my body work practice
and my artist management job.
It gave me like new energy forit.
(27:03):
And it's like that's whatvacation's for.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Like it's it's.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
It's so that you can like continually like, nourish
yourself and replenish yourselfand go have some fun.
So then, when you do the hardstuff, you can actually enjoy
doing the hard stuff.
So, um, so I'm going to takemore vacations.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
I would like to add to that it's not always hard
stuff.
It's the stuff that you'repassionate about, cause it's the
thing you want to go back towhen you get back from your
vacation.
So maybe that the thing you'repassionate about also comes with
hard things, but like, yeah, ifyou hated it, you would come
back from vacation and be like Idon't.
This is the last thing I wantto do is go to work, but you
don't have that.
You actually are passionateabout it, so that's good.
(27:42):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
That's really.
That's really good perspective.
And, um, I want to spend moretime with my nephews.
Oh, I love that.
Yeah, I love that.
Yeah, they're, they're suchneat people and I get so much
from them and I am told thatthey get something from me.
I can't imagine what it is theyget from me.
(28:04):
Sure, but I'm told by my momand my sister, like the boys
love you so much, they, you know, and I and I'm like I don't
really get it because I justfeel like I'm I don't know why,
but I just that's hard for me tocomprehend and I believe that
it's true.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, and um, and then I have one more thing.
Okay, more sex, always.
Who are you?
Having sex with oh my gosh,that is not who we are.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I was going to see if you answered having more sex
would be like in addition to theamount of sex I am having.
Right, so like I just need tohave sex, yeah, that's why you
always act like you're.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
you are just like the most, like you're still wearing
uh um, uh uh.
What's it called?
The ring the promise, ring, thepromise ring Like you still got
your promise.
I'm like, I mean, you'resitting here with people who
know you and I want to show youthis cat speaking of sex and
(29:17):

First of all, I'm a delight I posted this on
Instagram.

Miss Podcast Guys, this could be a small business
we could support.
I want to support it.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
can we work with him, can we work with them to do
something collaborative?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
yes, we will license the possum from them that's what
we will do.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
That'd be great you don't have to, but I understand
that'd be awesome.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
and my fifth thing is um, I want to get uh more hole
in my body, like I'm doing some,some, what Like is that weird?

Speaker 2 (32:55):
Do you guys remember, at the end of the Price is
Right, he always said don'tforget to spay and neuter your
pets.
What?
Okay, it was so random, butthat was like his line.
I was thinking about it for thecat and moose podcast, like
what is our?
Don't forget?
Dot dot dot.
(33:16):
Oh, each of us have to shareone.
Don't forget, remember, kids.
It's like our parting wisdom.
Sarah, you have to go first.

forget, tell the truth.
Cause I think telling the truthis very important.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Okay, we're going to work on those guys.
That was one of the firstpieces of advice you gave me,
and the band I was in was whatif you told the truth?
I thought that was so cool.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
I think everyone should just tell the truth.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
It would be so much easier there, there's this lady
who, um is an astrology lady andshe does family constellate or
used to do family constellationwork.
Her name's Tammy Roth.
She's on Facebook.
Hey, girl, hey Tammy Shout outTammy Shout out.
Um, and she told me I did aconsultation with her before
christmas, um, and had her lookat my birth chart.
(34:52):
It was really neat, yeah and um, and she said that she felt
like living our most authenticselves is the answer to world
peace I think, it's the answerto everything everything.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Who are we trying to be?
Who are we?
Speaker 2 (35:07):
trying to be?
Why are we trying to beanything but ourselves?
Speaker 3 (35:11):
This is we're all so unique.
Why not be this?
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Don't forget kids, be yourself, be yourself.

an artist and friend named JasonGray.
He's wonderful, and so heinvited my client, matt, to come

So it was him and Matt andBrandon Heath and Mike Weaver
from Big Daddy Weave Fun and wehad like a Riders in the Round
thing at the SiriusXM NashvilleStudios, which is in the Batman
building.

The new studio is really cool.
Yeah, it's really cool, and Itook my mom with me because she
was in town for an appointment.
That's funny.
And I took my mom with me andshe said, you know she goes.
I kind of felt like a touristbecause as we pulled into the
parking garage she said I lookedup and I was like we're at the
Batman building.
It was kind of cool.
I would have done the samething.
Yeah, it's like it was kind ofcool to be like, oh, like we're

Speaker 1 (12:05):
I got you something that I think doesn't measure up
to what I got.
Sarah, of course, yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
I could tell, naturally, yeah, well, yeah, it
doesn't it doesn't.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
It doesn't mean I love you any less.
And I got you something elsefor Christmas that is not from
La Crema, but at La Crema Iliterally had to go.
What can I get moose?
Because I found this thing forSarah, that I get moose, because
I found this thing for Sarahthat I was just like like I
gotta do it, and so I got youkind of a trinket thing there,
uh moose, did you talk to themabout how they changed your
(12:35):
chardonnay?
Speaker 2 (12:36):
and then, like you, didn't you should have station.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
I being such a faithful drinker of them, you
are that sounded bad.
Faithful customer of theirs,consumer follower cult member.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Yeah, um so, but that was really lovely.
So, um, so, that in short is iswhat you forgot.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Something you forgot about the?
Um driverless car that you didthe tour.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Oh yeah, I I've been telling people about this.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Oh, it was so cool.
It's called Waymo and thesecars are Jaguars, yeah, and my
understanding is that Waymo is aGoogle company and basically,
like they are driverless carsthat you basically order like an
Uber.
There's an app and it comes toyour location and you literally
it has your name or yourinitials on the top of the car,
(13:30):
like a taxi.
So when it was pulled up, itsaid Katie on mine, and then you
have to like tell it I'm hereat the car and then it unlocks
the car for you and you get inthe car and there is no person
in there driving and it takesyou wherever you want to go and
it's the safest.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
No, Did you see on Monday all this news that this
guy got stuck in his Waymo onMonday going to LAX and it was
doing circles in the parking lot?
Speaker 1 (14:00):
And.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
I was going to ask you what brand you used, because
they said it was Waymo.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
It's kind of cool Like this is the kind of stuff
we saw when we were kids, likewatching the Jetsons, you know.
Like you know and I was justtelling Amoose the other day
that I saw a post of someone alady leaving the hospital, like
maybe post surgery, and hernurse was wheeling her out and
the lady just called her Teslaand it just pulled right up
(14:30):
around and she got in thepassenger seat and it drove her
home Crazy.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
I mean that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
These are the times they should allow that, but
still kind of crazy, my my verylimited experience, I feel like
it's always really important tosay that okay, um was that it
felt safer to me than if I weredriving.
Yeah, it felt safer to me thanif an uber driver were driving
(14:58):
it for sure much safer to methan a taxi driver.
Interesting because it it showsyou on the screen.
It shows you by.
I don't know if it's likeinfrared or satellite or
whatever it is, but it wouldliterally, if there are three
people walking on the sidewalkbeside you, you can see them on
the screen.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Yeah, it's like they see the people.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
They see the cars, they see the traffic lights, and
when you look at the screen,you can see the lights turning
yellow, and so it'll slow downand stop.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
And then there was one point in time where the
light turned yellow and it spedup to go through it.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
It was like very intuitive, interesting.
Wow, that's so cool, it wasreally cool it was really,
really neat.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
The.
So back to the jetsons,something we didn't cut.
Oh, we need to still cover whateveryone did.
Speaker 3 (15:41):
I need to do that and then we need to talk about the
drones.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
I'm only going to give it 90 seconds on the drones
because it's a little post, butwe have to hit on the drones
because I'm a big fan of a dronefan.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Yep, yep.
All right, absolutely so, moose, what'd you do for Christmas?
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Um, so I um, uh, a good friend that we have
mentioned on the podcast, teresa, who was walking a cancer
journey.
I don't know why we say it thatway, but she had cancer and she
, uh, she did pass away over thebreak, and so I spent some time
with her before that happenedand and we can get into some of
(16:20):
that later I'd rather not, butI'm still processing but after
that I already had a tripplanned with Sarah and my sister
to go down to the Florida Keysbetween Christmas and with the
RV yeah, with the RV and camp,and so, well, that does not suck
(16:40):
, no it wasn't.
It didn't suck at all, it wasreally fun.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Shorts and T-shirts, it was 70 degrees.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
So, yeah, came back and just have been back at work
as we do.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
I came back to jury duty, oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
Tell us about that, Sarah.
Like, how did you even find outthat you were a candidate?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
What's funny is I received a call.
It was a voicemail, in fact,like maybe mid-December.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I'm sure you answered it.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Did you answer it or did you no it?
was like a voicemail and it waslike from the Davidson County
Police Department and I'm like,oh shit, what have I done?
And me too.
I immediately assume, yeah, itwas basically like you missed
your jury, blah, blah, blah.
And I'm like jury, I never gotjury.
And so it turns out they sentit to an old address.
(17:36):
And so I went online and likeexplained well, sure enough,
when we got back from I don't Idon't know what it was, it
must've been when I got backfrom Australia, I got a another
jury notice to like you've beensummoned, you've got to be there
on the eighth.
And so the eighth has come andgone, okay, so what can you say?
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Cause I know I know some things that I'm not
supposed to know.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
You know some things we're not allowed to talk about
now, anyway, so I've beensequestered.
I made the jury duty.
I was basically nashville fortwo days at in court while they
selected the jury somehow I gotselected, convinced that it
wasn't gonna happen becausethere's 105 people yeah, yeah,
I've been sequestered.
(18:21):
I have to go out town for twoweeks.
No technology, no phonesliterally no phone, no wine I
can't drink.
I I am on restriction.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
I mean like, but like is that?
Can they make you do?
Speaker 2 (18:41):
that's what I said literally, she's not allowed to
drink.
And I was like so, put it inyour bag.
And she was like no, they lookthrough your bag.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
They're going to go through our bag when we, when we
can't have her phone.
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Cat she can't have her phone.
Oh my God.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
So I'm like excited to be in it, but also like I
kind of feel like I'm in jail alittle bit yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
So, anyway, I'll be able to say more, maybe in a
couple of weeks when I get back.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
And it's like a big case.
I'll just say that, yeah, yeah,that'd be interesting.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
Here's what I will say to you, sarah, is that, like
I am comforted as a citizen ofthe state of Tennessee and a
citizen of the United States, Iam comforted by someone like you
.
I'm comforted by you sitting ona jury.
Oh, thanks, like I think that Ithink that you're wise and I
(19:34):
think that you, um, are a greatcritical thinker and I think
that you're very fair Um and um,I I'm really really glad that
you're serving and also, like Iliterally am over here thinking
to myself thank God, that is notme.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Like I told my dad and he's like that sounds
horrible.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I'm like I know, like I would so much rather be home,
but I'm also like, so it'sgoing to be interesting, she's
got to take like a fidgetbecause of her ADHD.
I was like you're not going tobe able to sit there that long I
was like you need to take anotebook or something that you
can like.
Yeah, Fidget with.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
It's like could we maybe Google like advice from
former jurors, like yeah, that'sa good idea Like do you need,
like exactly like a fidget?
Spinner.
Do you need like little, likeyou know, those little popping
plastic?
Things you know, it's likethere's got to be, I don't know,
like not having your phonealone.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
I agree, and she can't wait.
She doesn't have tv, shedoesn't have radio, she doesn't
have any substances to make herfeel good.
I um it like she's going tohave to be a person.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
I told her.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I was like you're going to have to start writing
poetry or something.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
I have a whole.
We have to pack for 14 dayslike not knowing if we have
laundry or any of that kind ofstuff.
So I'm like full on packing fora two week trip.
And the second bag is what I'mcalled my leisure bag, which
includes an array of board gamesand puzzles and like books and
(21:16):
things to do Like before we hadcell phones.
It's kind of.
It's kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'll tell you something I told her to take.
I bought on Amazon clearancelike 12 years ago and I've never
used it.
It's a little bingo thing whereyou like roll it and like a
number comes out.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
and then there's a whole bunch of things, a legit
bingo game.
I'm bringing it.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
They told her they were like bring games.
And I'm like that's where it'smy worst nightmare.
I am fine to serve on a jury ofa murder and do all of those
things.
I don't want to hang out withyou when that is over and they
have to like go.
They do everything to gettogether.
If they're going on a walk,they go for a walk together.
(21:57):
If they go to dinner, they haveto be escorted and I'm like
that makes me feel like um, likehandmaid's tale or something
you know yes, interesting, yes,and it also it makes me wonder
like you are probably gonna meetthe neatest people.
I agree, I know and I just foundout enough about the case to
(22:19):
google it to figure out what itis, but I can't tell her
anything, which?
I'm not allowed to knowanything because yeah, and so I
have been texting you, kat andanother friend of ours offline
going.
Yeah, yeah, she doesn't knowthis, but here's what I found in
this article and it's it'sreally.
It's gonna be fascinating andinteresting after the fact.
Speaker 3 (22:42):
Yeah it'll be cool.
I think it's gonna be televisedand the whole thing.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
So, oh, I'm watching it yeah, and in I know like in
our, in our friend group Moose,I know you and our other friend
are gonna like obsess over thisyes, and.
I, I will just be like in thecorner, like praying for Sarah
you know what I mean, because Idon't yeah, I don't want to
really know until afterwards andthen I want to go like okay,
(23:07):
what was your experience like?
How are you in your body, what?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
did it feel like in your body.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
You know it's like.
I'm very, very curious aboutthe whole process.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
I've already seen.
I've already in the future seenSarah on Dateline as, like one
of the jurors talking about it,which I mean it could definitely
be a Dateline story.
I'll just say that.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
Oh, I just want to keep teasing it.
Moving on, moving on, moving on.
I'm not allowed to talk aboutit.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
All right, guys, I know I didn't give you any time
to plan for this, but we'recreating a audio vision board
right now of your life in 2025.
Okay, I'll go first.
Five things that I want to puton my vision board for 2025
include podcasting, coaching,writing, traveling with friends
(23:58):
and family.
I want to bring more people onthe trips we go on.
And then being myself.
Those are my five things.
And then being myself.
Speaker 3 (24:07):
Those are my five things.
Okay, I want travel as well.
I want to visit family more.
I have family that's far fromme and they're getting older, so
I want to see them.
I want to become a walker.
(24:28):
Oh, I like that I might borrowthat one.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
I'd like to win the lottery, please.
Okay, that'd be great.
You got to believe it in orderto achieve it.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Come on, baby, I also got to play, which I don't.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Mm-hmm.
Oh yeah, so there's that.
I thought that was your fifththing is that you were going to
play Me too.
I was like that's fun.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
The last thing is play more For real, not the
lottery Just play.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Ok, I agree.
Agree, 100 hundred percent.
I love that.
Work is not in one of ours.
Okay, go cat.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
It's funny because um work is in mind, but in a way
that I think is more healthy forme.
I want to be.
I want to find myself in theseat as an artist manager that I
want to be in and where I cando my best work.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Because I have.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
I have not been in that place in a couple of years
now and that doesn't mean Ihaven't done my work.
It just means that, like I have, I have struggled bus through
the past couple of years and Iam ready to go like, oh, I know
how to do this and I know how tomotivate a team and I know how
to lead a team and I know how todo all the things, and so I
(25:50):
really want to get better atthat.
Um, I have big educationalgoals on the body work side of
things.
Um, I am going to study tobecome a teacher of the modality
that I practice.
Yeah, I'm very, very excitedabout that.
Um, because you know, I'vealways heard people say, if you,
if you can teach it, you knowit.
And there's something, there'ssomething still about being at
(26:14):
the side of the table where Ihave this like do I really know
what I'm doing?
And I know that that's alifelong pursuit and everybody
feels that way to some extentand blah, blah, blah.
But like I want to really feelmore confident.
Yeah, and I already do feelconfident at the side of the
table, but I want to feel evenmore confident, yeah, and I want
to take more vacations.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yes, great, I have been waiting for you to say this
, yes.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Love it.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
I do not play enough.
You don't.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I don't.
And having two weeks off aroundthe holidays, I don't.
And in having two weeks offaround the holidays, although I
traveled, which was great, Ispent time with family, which
was great, having space awayfrom both my body work practice
and my artist management job.
It gave me like new energy forit.
(27:03):
And it's like that's whatvacation's for.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Like it's it's.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
It's so that you can like continually like, nourish
yourself and replenish yourselfand go have some fun.
So then, when you do the hardstuff, you can actually enjoy
doing the hard stuff.
So, um, so I'm going to takemore vacations.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
I would like to add to that it's not always hard
stuff.
It's the stuff that you'repassionate about, cause it's the
thing you want to go back towhen you get back from your
vacation.
So maybe that the thing you'repassionate about also comes with
hard things, but like, yeah, ifyou hated it, you would come
back from vacation and be like Idon't.
This is the last thing I wantto do is go to work, but you
don't have that.
You actually are passionateabout it, so that's good.
(27:42):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
That's really.
That's really good perspective.
And, um, I want to spend moretime with my nephews.
Oh, I love that.
Yeah, I love that.
Yeah, they're, they're suchneat people and I get so much
from them and I am told thatthey get something from me.
I can't imagine what it is theyget from me.
(28:04):
Sure, but I'm told by my momand my sister, like the boys
love you so much, they, you know, and I and I'm like I don't
really get it because I justfeel like I'm I don't know why,
but I just that's hard for me tocomprehend and I believe that
it's true.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, and um, and then I have one more thing.
Okay, more sex, always.
Who are you?
Having sex with oh my gosh,that is not who we are.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
I was going to see if you answered having more sex
would be like in addition to theamount of sex I am having.
Right, so like I just need tohave sex, yeah, that's why you
always act like you're.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
you are just like the most, like you're still wearing
uh um, uh uh.
What's it called?
The ring the promise, ring, thepromise ring Like you still got
your promise.
I'm like, I mean, you'resitting here with people who
know you and I want to show youthis cat speaking of sex and
(29:17):
stuff.
Oh well, this has nothing to dowith sex, actually, but I
posted this on Instagram.
Can you see that shirt?
Speaker 1 (29:26):
First of all, I'm a delight I posted this on
Instagram.
Speaker 2 (29:29):

someone and I said everyEnneagram eight needs this.

legally wrong?

new picture of a possum andthen we say we're a delight, kat
, and.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Miss Podcast Guys, this could be a small business
we could support.
I want to support it.
Oh, I'm saying, can we start?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
can we work with him, can we work with them to do
something collaborative?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
yes, we will license the possum from them that's what
we will do.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
That'd be great you don't have to, but I understand
that'd be awesome.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
and my fifth thing is um, I want to get uh more hole
in my body, like I'm doing some,some, what Like is that weird?
Speaker 3 (30:35):
Could have been.

who, um is an astrology lady andshe does family constellate or
used to do family constellationwork.
Her name's Tammy Roth.

like living our most authenticselves is the answer to world
peace I think, it's the answerto everything everything.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Who are we trying to be?
Who are we?
Speaker 2 (35:07):
trying to be?
Why are we trying to beanything but ourselves?
