stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (00:00):
Last year, you mentioned you guys are

(00:01):
going to Europe.
Have you started booking thoseplane tickets yet?

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (00:04):
Uh, we have not, Kathy went and got
driver's license to fly on theplane, which I don't even have
that.
We're still dealing with, withsome health issues.
so we don't know if it's gonnahappen she said this out loud
last night and I was thinkingit, that the state of where our
perception is of being Americaand Europe doesn't feel real

(00:27):
good.
I don't know that, you know,with our baseball caps and our
fanny packs and our, robustbodies, that we stand out as
Americans.
I don't know if we necessarilyneed to go to Europe next year
until things calm downtruthfully.
So we'll

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (00:42):
Well, nice.
Americans are okay there.
Assholes don't need to go

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (01:53):
yeah.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (01:54):
Okay.
Well let's talk about our thingtoday.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (01:57):
Okay.
Okay.
Um, so for today, know, I try toread articles and I, I'm a
Buzzfeed, article Nut.
I mean, I'm always happy to reada list, um, of things that
people have to say aboutanything.
And I came across this story andit was, I think it was called
something like titled like, okayboomers.

(02:18):
They're trends that they hate orsomething like that.
But basically it was writtenfrom their perspective of people
who were of a certain age andthere were things that were in
houses that just drove themcrazy.
And the, the first one that Iread made me cackle out loud.
'cause I just thought it was sofunny, the reasoning.
Um, but it was very true.
And then it made me think of.

(02:39):
I'm sure knowing the three ofus, because we're all very
opinionated, that there arethings that we personally detest
or are ready for them to leaveor that they just need to go
away and we're not saying, thisis, again, for trying to tell
people if they have this intheir house that it's awful.
It's just like

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (02:57):
Oh no.
I'm gonna tell him.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (02:58):
you know, I'm gonna tell'em too.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (02:59):
Yeah, no,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (03:00):
it out.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (03:01):
you know,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (03:01):
that's why you hired me to come there.
We're taking out what's bad,Uhhuh.
Yep.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (03:06):
well, um, so the first one says two
sinks and two mirrors.
they're talking about in a, in aprimary bathroom, they said, and
no medicine cabinet.
You have to downward dog to getyour heartburn medicine.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (03:19):
Wait, what was the age group of this
survey?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (03:23):
well, this was for boomers and so this
was, um, you

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (03:26):
Hmm.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (03:26):
Old, older, and so there's no hate to
boomers, but I just thought itwas so funny that, you know, if
you don't have a medicinecabinet, that that was like,
okay, now your medication has togo underneath of the, the, uh,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (03:39):
Vanity

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (03:40):
and they're having to do the
downward dog, like, you know,bend all the way down and out.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (03:44):
and it's called a basket dumbass.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (03:45):
it's not.
You can, it's not spicy.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (03:52):
God.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (03:52):
Well.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (03:53):
can't, can't reach down three feet oh,
let me get this basket with mystuff and bring it out.
And then you put it back,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (04:02):
Okay.
This was not meant to belisteners.
This was not

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (04:05):
Uh,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025 (04:05):
judgmental, hateful episode.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (04:07):
it sorta is

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (04:08):

you know what, at different po

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (04:13):
Okay.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (04:14):
Hold on.
No, I'm say at fun point.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (04:15):
how many bathrooms have you done
that you've put vanity, uh, or,uh, what is it called?
Uh,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090 (04:21):
missing cabinet.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (04:22):
what they're called.
How, how many medicine cabinetshave you put in a bathroom in
your 27 years of illustriousinterior design, bougie
bathrooms that you've fuckingdone?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (04:32):
None,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (04:34):
Thank you.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (04:36):
none of,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (04:36):
why

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (04:36):
no, what I'm, I was just pointing
that out, that some of us,because of size.
Age may have a little bit moreof a struggle.
And this relates to my first petpeeve that this is the thing
that I hate.
So I could have identified withthis.
'cause I could see me being 65trying to bend over to get, I'm
not the 60 fives old by anymeans.

(04:58):
I, you know, it's absolutely

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (05:00):
Do you not got a drawer in your
vanity?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (05:03):
Well, the picture that they put with
this was that there was, it wasbasically like an open vanity.
Like there was just like alittle

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (05:09):
So it was a cheap cabinet.
That doesn't even count.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (05:11):
inex excuse.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (05:13):
It doesn't count.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (05:14):
Okay.
Lord.
Beat it to death.
Okay.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (05:17):
Next.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (05:17):
my number one,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (05:19):
this

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (05:19):
well, I know a brother, but I, it just
went away.
I didn't expect it to go, butyou know what, that's, that's
how this goes.
Okay.
My number one thing that I wouldreally love for it to go away
and we experienced it thisweekend.
we were coming back fromvisiting friends and we stopped
at a home accessory furniturestore.
'cause we don't have one here inour area and Jeremy wanted to
look around and so we stoppedand they had this, you know,

(05:42):
pretty furniture, beautifulfabrics, you know, all those
kind of things.
But they were all so low, like Ifelt like I had to fall into
them to get into them and to getout of them I would have to roll
out onto the floor, onto myhands and knees.
And then stand up.
And this is a very common thingfor me when there's furniture
that's really super low, andthis was not cheap furniture.

(06:04):
Like the, the sofa was$8,000.
And I'm like, I have to likeinstall a lift to get me off of
the sofa.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (06:11):
pay?
Why would you put a price?
Hang on like that.
That's goofy.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:15):
Well, I mean, it was a big sofa.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (06:18):
it's the look.
It's the look.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:19):
know.
And Jeremy goes, oh,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (06:20):
Was it like mid-century

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (06:22):
no.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:23):
Yeah.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:23):
Yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (06:24):
of you designers have sold an$8,000
sofa?

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (06:29):
I sold two last month.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:31):
Okay, well

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:32):

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (06:33):
You

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (06:33):
um,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (06:34):
some dumb ass people.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:35):
well,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (06:36):
Just go back to your blowup pool in
Heartland.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (06:39):
he is in a

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (06:40):
God, no kidding.
Lord, have mercy.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (06:42):
know, these, and those were
exceptions, right?
Like, that's not, that's notbeen a very common thing, but it
was also huge.
One was a sectional kind of likething, but one of'em was just a
normal three person sofa, youknow?
You know, it is what it is.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_ (06:59):
listening.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (07:01):
It's not the norm.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (07:02):
know that's not,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (07:04):
No.
I mean, in my personal home,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (07:05):
No.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (07:06):
have an 8,000 sofa in my sunroom.
We have a$1,500 sofa I got fromHaverty's.
And it looks damn good.
Uh, but when we got to thestorage, he was like, oh, these,
that sofa just looks socomfortable.
And I realized it was the downcushions.
So, you know, it has like allthe, and so, you know, it does
look like it's just like alittle feather, like a feathery

(07:26):
bed that you could just likelaunch yourself into

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (07:29):
Go to your bed.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (07:30):
go do your pen.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (07:31):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (07:32):
and I was like, well, it does, but
have you sat in it?
And then he went to go sit in itand he was like, oh, this is
really low.
And, you know, I'm six three.
He's, he's, I don't know howtall he is.
He's shorter than me.
Five 10.
And he's like, uh, he's not five

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (07:45):
He's not.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (07:46):
five 10.
And he's like, this is low.
And I'm like, if it's low foryou, think about me.
I mean, I'm like, if, if theTower of Pisa had like two spare
tires on either side of it,that's me.
not thin.
I'm just trying to say it's big,but I'm already trying to lean
in to get into the sofa.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (08:05):
Oh

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (08:06):
I'm agreeing with you on

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (08:07):
But

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (08:07):
yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (08:08):
I, the look is beautiful, but
unless you're my niece can't doit at 44.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (08:14):
20.
You can't afford the 8,000 sofa.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (08:16):
No.
Well, I'm sure there's somecheaper ones, but one was, you
know, was just, I, I guess whatI was trying to say, was it, I
wasn't at Ikea, right?
Like, that's not where we wereat.
We were at a, a

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (08:26):
Right.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (08:27):
song.
But that is like, for me,because of my size, height and
all that is one that I'm like,just, I want it to go away
forever.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09 (08:36):
wouldn't want it because of his age, so
he couldn't get outta it, so,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (08:38):
I mean, no.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (08:40):
could probably jump up out of it much
faster than I could,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (08:43):
well, he, yeah.
He's the sp of all of us.
Yes.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (08:47):
you know?

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0 (08:48):
anything, uh, on an angle, a clipped
corner, a corner fireplace,which you don't see very often,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (08:53):
Oh.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (08:54):
still walk into new builds that they
have a, a clipped corners, andit's like, just square it off.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (09:00):
Yeah,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (09:00):
Why?
would you do

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (09:02):
I know.
It makes it so awkward.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (09:04):
no, no ever.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_0909 (09:06):
Never.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (09:07):
my easy one.
Never anything on an angle.
No.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (09:09):
Uh, I, uh, for some reason I guess I
looked at something a little toolong once on Facebook, and now I
keep getting all these likehouse plans advertised to me and
I'll always look at them andit's always interesting to see,
how they lay things out.
And then I'm like, absolutelynot.
I've never build this.
I could afford it.
but every time they put one ofthose damn angled walls in, it's

(09:29):
like somebody just went in andthey decided they just wanted to
get funky.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (09:32):
Right, right.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (09:33):

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (09:34):

it, it.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (09:35):
on the, Francisco house and it had
angled corners when you walk inthe foyer, and it did make sense
in that one, and it, it mademoments.
That's the only one I think I'veever worked on.
Usually, like you say, it's justthis random, let's be an

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (09:50):
Let's put a pantry in the corner of
the kitchen.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (09:53):

It's been, it's been aroundforever and it was used in a lot
of different ways.
And what happened was then whenshe fell in love with it and
then she liked to use it, sheused it as texture, right?
She just a little bit ofinterest, a little bit of trim,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090 (11:44):
Mm-hmm.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (11:44):
of things.
And I won't say that she alwaysused it.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (11:47):
for poor people.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (11:49):
Yeah.
There we go.
Um, I won't say that she alwaysused it in like the perfect
situation because I think ifyour home is true to the style
or character and that works, useit.
Right?
But then what happened wasbecause, Lacey, who lives three
houses down, who wanted to addsome character to her, um, foyer

(12:12):
or whatever, who lives in like aGeorgian colonial

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (12:15):
I was gonna say it's Cape Cod or
Colonial.
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (12:18):
she starts, you know, she starts
throwing shit and then everybodystarts just putting it
everywhere.
And that's where I'm like, wetook, you took one good thing
and then just completely ruinedit.
Because now it is kind of likeoverkill.
Right?
I do think that people do put itkind of everywhere.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (12:34):
not disagreeing with Stewart about
that.
Uh, as that idea, it'severywhere and it's overkill and
it's not always used inappropriate

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (12:42):
Yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (12:42):
But like I would say,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (12:43):
Well.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (12:44):
at me.
It's like, but I always lookingfor that used piece of gum.
So I believe it has its purpose

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (12:49):
Oh yeah,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (12:50):
a quarter Fireplace never has a
purpose, right.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (12:51):
No, it does not.
Ever, ever.
Well, it became something thatpeople didn't know what to do
with the wall.
They're like, oh, let's justshiplap it and paint it.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (13:02):
And that's true.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (13:02):
And that's

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (13:03):
And the builders were like, great.
We don't even have to finishthat wall.
Just put that shiplap on there.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (13:07):
yeah.
I'm

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (13:08):
And it's like, no

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (13:09):
point.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (13:09):
Uhuh, no

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (13:10):
I do, I agree with you.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0 (13:12):
overdone.
It

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (13:13):
Yeah.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0 (13:13):
overdone.
Mm-hmm.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (13:15):
say, um, and again, has given me
pause to use it very muchbecause it's like everywhere.
But, um, the, the.
Well, you know, um, Lorena andBrian's house, which is a little
house that looks like suddenliving schoolhouse and it looks
like it's from 1923.
It has shiplap in it

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (13:34):
And it looks like it should.
Mm-hmm.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (13:36):
Right.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (13:37):
but it has that feel to it.
And, but honestly what you'resaying, Stuart, it, it made me
pause for a minute and say, ohmy God, is that trendy?
And it's all,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (13:44):
Yes.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (13:45):
Is it done to death?
Yes.
But in this one it isn't trendy.
It is style

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (13:51):
Well, that was indicative to the
house,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (13:53):
was,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (13:53):
right?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (13:54):
Mm-hmm.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09 (13:55):
percent.
A hundred percent.
And it goes back to

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (13:57):
not, what should I put behind my tv?
Oh, let's just shiplap it andpaint it black.
No,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (14:02):
and I

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (14:03):
don't.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (14:03):
used shiplap maybe four times ever.
And this, this bathroom, I haveto say.
It the way that, John, did the,the bathroom, has a nice little,
little line in it.
It reads very sophisticated,it's very polished and very,
very well done.
And the ceiling's painted, youknow, paint blue and.

(14:27):
has a colonial kind of feel toit.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (14:29):
Right.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (14:30):
a very tight little bathroom.
And the fact is, you know, we'regonna have little boys use this
and it's oil based and they canwipe it down.
And they didn't have to dealwith walls.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09 (14:39):
pressure washing day.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (14:40):
They could press just about
truthfully.
And that was a factor.
I'm not being silly, I was, itwas, for me, it was an aesthetic
and it matched the style of thehouse and, and it kind of felt
beachy pool house colonial.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (14:52):
Mm.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (14:52):
kind of, but it also was function
that, you know, it's, it's, um,it's, uh, oil based that's
really washable, basically.
I said that anyway.
Okay.
Yeah.
But not fighting you on, uh,it's, it's the, it's the, um.
What's that horrible show?
HGTV, uh, that network.
It's that, that they've justtook

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (15:13):
Yep.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (15:13):
went too far with it.
And you

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (15:14):
Right.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (15:15):
for $12,000.
you

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (15:18):
No, I can't.
No.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (15:20):
No, you can't.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (15:21):
All right.
My next one,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (15:23):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (15:24):
which drives me crazy, so there's like
two parts to this.
it has to do about lighting

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (15:31):
Oh, I have a lighting one too.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (15:33):
it has to do about bulbs.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (15:35):
Ugh,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (15:36):
If I, if you're gonna see the
bulbs,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (15:38):
Boobs.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (15:40):
if you're gonna see the

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (15:40):
boobs.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (15:41):
if you're gonna see the bulbs, I
would rather.
Lose a toe than use an O.
And this is just personally, Ijust, I, this is how much I hate
it.
you have a chandelier that's olike that's open and there's not
a shade on the, on the bulb,right, you're gonna see the
bulb.
I would rather lose a toe thanput an opaque bulb in there.

(16:03):
For some reason, they read socheap to me, I'd rather have the
clear bulb.
And so you can see the filamentI that makes me, I, it, it, I,
I, I just, I, the number oftimes that I see it, and it's
not just, it's not at homes,it's like you, I'll see it like
in, uh, uh, uh, stores orwhatever.
now listen, if you have anopaque bulb.

(16:24):
That you use in like a lamp andthere's a shade and you can't
see it, that's a totallydifferent thing to me, right?
I don't get to see it, but I donot wanna see this little
glowing.
Now, the one exception maybe arethose, um, what were those
chandeliers like from theseventies where I think they
were seventies, where they werelike a, a bunch of vertical bar,

(16:45):
um, with gold brass bars andthen they had white globe.
Bulbs on the top.
You know what I'm talking about.
It was like, like, it, it's avery stylistic, it, it's a very
stylistic look.
And so if you're going for thatMidCentral, like it feels very
that, and I think that that doesgo along with that.
So for me,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (17:04):
Like a Sputnik chandelier,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (17:08):
No, I, I'll, I'll have to, I'll,
I'll find a picture of it andI'll put it down on the show
notes and I'll find one and showit to you later.
But

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (17:13):
which you shouldn't use those either
by the way.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (17:15):
Um, um, but, but, um, because when
you see like classic images ofthose, they have like the opaque
bulbs and there's somethingabout sculpture art, like that
doesn't bother me.
I, I think of just like a roundlike rimmed chandelier that have
like a lot of these, uh, well,there's one called Darna that's

(17:36):
from, visual comfort or.
Currey and Co.
It's one, it's, it's, it's avery common, uh, beautiful light
fixture that's just like a ironcircle that's like, laying or
parallel to the floor.
Right.
And it's just all these bulbsall the way around it.
And then just, it just full of24 opaque white bulbs.
And I just want, like, I justwanna grab a baseball bat and

(17:57):
just go to town.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (17:58):
Wow.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (17:59):
Yeah.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (17:59):
Okay.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (18:01):
it really does.
Yeah.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (18:03):
Well my lighting one, which we
already know is if it's blue,turn it off.
Oh,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (18:11):
Amen.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (18:12):
2,700 to 3000 Kelvin is plenty for
anybody to see.
And anybody who says, well, Ican see better with the other
light.
No, you can't.
Stupid.
Your colors look different.
I mean, you can't see betterwith blue light.
You can't, it doesn't, it's, itdoesn't cost less money to run

(18:34):
blue light.
It doesn't, uh.
It doesn't do nothing, so it'sjust a, uh, no, no, no, no.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (18:42):
I also do not care for, uh, really
cool, uh,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090 (18:46):
Mm-hmm.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (18:48):
above 3000 is just like, it's

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (18:50):
Yeah.
It's a no.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (18:51):
I mean, 20 27 27 is really, 2,700
is

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (18:54):
That's really where it needs to be.
Yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (18:57):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (18:57):
the, to follow up from that, the
other thing is if the.
If the light bulbs don't, man,if the color doesn't

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (19:04):
Oh.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (19:04):
And so you've got like, some of it's
like warm and some of it's I,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (19:08):
Uhhuh there, actually, there's a, a
house that I am, I helped thembuild it 11 years ago, and I
have recently gone back becausenow it's time to refresh and
they're, they're ready torefresh and we got some new
furniture and we got, you know,some closet systems and things
like that.

(19:28):
I was walking around and I went,so we're gonna replace all of
these can lights, right?
And she's like, oh my God, I washoping you wouldn't notice.
I said, that is the first thingI noticed.
Every single one had a differentbulb in it because as,'cause as
they blew out, they just gotwhatever bulb they put and put
in it.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (19:45):
Mm.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (19:46):
So I was like, no, we're replacing
every single one of these inthis house.
So they're consistent.
It's dumb.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (19:52):
to let you know, um, Stuart, you
and I are a running joke.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09 (19:56):
Shocking

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (19:57):
I've thought that for

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (19:58):
who?

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (19:59):
Okay, our CPAs,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (20:01):
Hello?

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (20:02):
that, uh, if you're back working with
Troy and I'm back working withLeah,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (20:06):
Yeah, Uhhuh.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (20:06):
Leah said, Troy and I have a bet.
Which one's going to invoicefirst because y'all real slow
invoicing.
I was like,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (20:15):
I know.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (20:15):
like, oh.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (20:16):
It's funny.
Troy's wife just texted meyesterday.
She's like, do I owe you money?
I'm like, yeah, I'm getting toit.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (20:21):
Yeah, so it's like, like, it's like,
well, I said Stuart probably endup winning anyway,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (20:25):
And I am, like

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (20:26):
Okay.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (20:27):
I said, Troy, Troy controls our
money anyway, so he's our CPADamnit.
He knows

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (20:32):
He's fine.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (20:32):
it's fine.
I can't, I can't hide it fromhim.
He's the one who knowseverything about it.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090 (20:37):
They're talking about us behind our
back, just to

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (20:39):
Oh, that's kind of fun.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (20:41):
It is kind of fun.
Okay.
So for me, I keep running intothis mix of, uh, finishes and
like if you're doing a bathroomand, you know, people I'm
working with are mostly fineabout putting gold in there.
Right.
But they get really, really,really super hung up about.

(21:03):
single thing has to be the exactsame gold some of it you, you
can put a little black in thereor you can have a lot fixture.
It's got a little black andgold.
It goes back to the whole broilthing for me, that long as it
coordinates and blends, think ithas to always be the same color.
Now, what I mean by that is likethe faucet for me and what's in

(21:25):
the shower should be the, thesink, right?
But if you've got a lightfixture.
They're gonna be, a lot of timesa little slightly different gold
color.
And I just, you know, I don'thave a problem mixing that
together.
And so I always had to keepconvincing people to say, let's,
let's do, uh, this color mirror,but let's do this color of
faucet.
And there's this, and it's,it's, it's a science, right?

(21:47):
Mixing it together and the

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (21:49):
Right.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (21:49):
all that kinda stuff.
But I also don't really want itto all be the same color.
'cause I feel like it's toomatchy and it's, it's hard to do
that.
I

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (21:56):
Mm-hmm.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (21:56):
a, it's a process to get it there.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (21:59):
Mm-hmm.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (21:59):
What you

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_0909 (22:00):
agree.
No, I agree.
And actually my other, and Idon't think it's completely
fair, but it has to do aboutbathroom finishes is Chrome.
Uh.
I don't like Chrome.
I never have.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (22:13):
you

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (22:13):
I don't,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (22:14):
Isn't that

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (22:14):
I

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (22:14):
See, and

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (22:15):
don't ever want to use it.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (22:17):
but Chrome is a great compliment
when you, like you have polishednickel, like if you have
polished nickel shower fixtures,but.
Let's say your vanity lights arechrome, or there's a chrome
accent, those actually go reallywell together.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (22:32):
I can't do it together.
I

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (22:33):
Hmm.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (22:34):
I, I,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (22:35):
I can,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (22:35):
I, I, and, and God bless you.
But I hate

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (22:38):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (22:38):
Uh, just there's

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (22:39):
Chrome is not my first choice, but it
is.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (22:43):
no,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (22:43):
You can, you can mix with it pretty
easy.
I.
Yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (22:46):
Yeah, know, the, the kids' bathroom,
you know, they're gone.
But the kids' bathroom is blackand white, little marble tile.
And it is, it's, it's, it's, uh,subway tile and black and white
and.
Marble mosaic and uh, shakertype cabinetry.
So it has chrome in there and itjust feels and appropriate with

(23:11):
the gold, be pretty sure wouldblack be pretty fine, but I look
at that and this is 20 yearslater and I go, don't need to
change it.
Still love it.
Still love it.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (23:18):
Okay, I'd burn it down.
It's fine.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (23:21):
it's burning

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (23:21):
It's personal.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (23:24):
I love it.
And I always, and I say this ina beautiful compliment because
I've used your bathroom Jeremy,as a reference multiple,
multiple times.
'cause it has such beautifulwarmth and depth to it.
So I, I.
And I get that Chrome can have acoolness to it.
Uh, and your bathroom is lovelyand aged and beautiful mix of
colors.

(23:44):
But I'd still go back

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (23:45):
Mm-hmm.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (23:46):
again, where shiplap has its purpose.
Chrome has its purpose.
It's

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (23:50):
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
I'm sure.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (23:51):
every

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (23:51):
I'm sure it does.
It's just not me.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (23:53):
He ain't

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (23:53):
Mm, no, it is not gonna be me.
You know, it's funny when youwere talking about, uh,
matching, uh, uh, the finishesin the, in the bathroom when we
were doing our primary, um, youknow, faucets are not cheap,
right?
Like they weren't cheap then.
Right.
And then you get to now and, um,you know, you know, you gotta
get the, the pretty valve andthe, the valve or the pretty

(24:15):
kit, right?
The, the good stuff, the handle.
And, um, when it came to the,um.
A faucet for the sink.
The one I wanted was like$1,800.
I think it was like 1800 for afaucet.
And I was like, I'm not payingAdrian.
I mean there's, you know, therewas no way in God's green earth.
And I found some website.
Now listen, it came from Chinaand I've replaced it three

(24:37):
times.
Um,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (24:39):
So you spent$1,200,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (24:41):
no?
No.
'cause they, they only cost

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (24:43):
just buy.
Buy the first one

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (24:45):
No, I

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (24:46):
and don't worry about it.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09 (24:47):
multiple times.
It was$50.
Um, uh, uh, but they didn't,they weren't gonna be exact.
And, um, I remember, um, atwhere we, where we bought it.
I remember her looking at me andbeing like, are you sure?
Like, they're not gonna be exactmatch.
I'm like, they're on oppositewalls in the bathroom.
Like, nobody's gonna have itside by side.

(25:08):
not, you're not gonna see.
It's fine.
It's fine.
And it was, it turned out to bejust fine.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (25:12):
Yeah.
Yeah.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (25:16):
Well, what was another, uh, contention
on this list that you read?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (25:20):
Well, let me get this up.
'cause some of them after thatwere kind of stupid.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (25:24):
Well, the first one was stupid,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (25:25):
I don't, um, this, oh this
exterior, exterior steps with nohand drilling.
Now I thought by code.
Well, it is yes, but I thoughtby code you had to have
handrails.
Is that not true?

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (25:42):
not if it's.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_0909 (25:42):
steps?

dwayne_1_03-06-2025 (25:43):
everywhere.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (25:44):
over, if it's over three steps, yes.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (25:47):
Yeah, Lexington, Kentucky actually,
we're always being accused morebackwards.
We have more codes than a lot of

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (25:53):
Uh, there are.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (25:55):
yeah, many, many, many, uh, again, 20
plus years ago when in, uh,in-laws were building cabins in
the Gatlinburg area, I waswalking up the steps and, and I
felt the stride was off in thesteps and it was like, gosh,
these steps are peculiar.
And I said, are you sure theymatched code?
He said, oh no, there's no codethat has to be matched.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (26:16):
Oh Lord.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (26:16):
I think he was being lazy.
There's always a stair code.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (26:21):
Uh, okay.
And

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (26:22):
Oh.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (26:22):
you know, you are in that world.
I called Jeremy or Stewart hadto gimme advice on, um, a DA,
uh, bathroom, uh, question theother day.
'cause that's his thing, notmine.
So I, you know, I could havebeen lied to.
I, I just, you know, I just takeit for the truth.
But, but I was like, oh, this,this is not good.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (26:38):
Yeah, I, um.
Uh, just drove by a house.
Uh, I guess it was while we wereoutta town in Columbus and it
had, I mean, it, we had to beeight steps going up to the
front door and there was nohandrail at all.
And I thought, Lord, that isjust a death trap, waiting
happy.
And then I thought, this is themost brilliant thing ever, if

(26:59):
you hate company.
Like, if you don't want peopleto come, they ain't going to
come.
But, you know, in our back with,at the terrace, um, just step
down, there was a handrail, uh,installed there at some point
before we bought the house.
And it was like, I mean, honestto God, it was like iron pipe
that somebody had like riggedup.
So I guess, you know, Mimi couldget down there in the backyard.

(27:22):
but we cut that thing right outand so I think we have four.
We have six steps that go downand sometimes I'm like, well,
everybody gonna be okay.
Especially if we've been outinto the fire pit and we've been
drinking,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (27:33):
Yeah,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (27:34):
Well, but if it's in the middle of
the, yeah, if it's in the middleof the yard, there's no code for
that

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (27:38):
okay, what's the

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090 (27:39):
because Yeah, you're out.
Yeah.
It's just entering a dwelling.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (27:44):
and you're

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (27:44):
Yeah.
You just Rolling the grass

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (27:46):
bird bath.
We're

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (27:47):
roll.
Yeah.
Rolling the grass.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (27:51):
She cut her head on the bird bath.
She was up the fourth stepthough.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (27:57):
But you know, this is another one
where you thought, I thoughtlike, you know, like I do see
stairs and I'm like, oh, thatcould be dangerous.
I'm thinking of a certain age,like, you know, coming down and
that.
And then that's when I got thesepeople's perspectives like, you
know, I don't need Memaw to fallover and break herself in half.
this one was because one wastalking about, uh, we bought
everything we were supposed tobe.

(28:18):
To have a smart home.
Everything was electric lights,curtains, shades, TVs.
Uh, we learned that it wassupposed to update regularly,
but they, uh, but they weren'tupdated by the previous owners
and our smart home wasn't sosmart and nothing ever worked.
That does, that makes

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (28:36):
That'd be annoying.
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (28:40):
DI, mm.
I'm out.
Like I don't need a whole, awhole system thing.
I look at it, it's just like acar, like I love some of the
bells and whistles, like I lovea heated seat.
I love a, a panoramic sunroof.
But then when you start likegetting to like a beverage
warmer or beverage cooler, I'mlike, this is just one more
thing to break then it's gonnacost a fortune to fix.

(29:00):
That's when I look at these homesystems where it's like, you can
integrate everything intogether.
I don't need that.
Like, I don't, I

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (29:07):
No.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (29:07):
is coming from the person who's
every lamp in the house is on atimer, and they all come on

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (29:12):
Yeah.
But a timer is different than anintegrated system.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (29:15):
yes.
Well, and,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (29:16):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (29:17):
they're not like a re like an old timer,
like they're a digital one thatconnects to the phone, so we can
control it from the, our phone,Not everything in the house is
connected.
'cause I can just see it justbeing like, oh, this is a
disaster.
And I, you know, you all havebeen to these homes too, I'm
sure where you go in and thenthere's like the, the, the
mechanicals room and you know,it used to just be like the
mechanical of like the, youknow, heating and, and the, all

(29:39):
that kinda stuff.
Now you go in there and it'slike, it looks like a, a, a, a
sci-fi channel because they gotall these like.
I don't even know what thesethings are that are there, that
they have

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (29:49):
Yes.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (29:49):
plugged into and all the little lights
and all the, this controls thisand this controls the sound
system and this control and itall, and I'm like, this is just
one big disaster.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090 (29:58):
Mm-hmm.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_0909 (29:59):
'cause my luck, it would just blow

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090 (30:00):
Mm-hmm.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_0909 (30:01):
that's why I don't need it.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (30:02):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (30:02):
Mm-hmm.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (30:04):
Yeah, we got lights all over terror
and timers because God.
I was walking around, turning'emoff every night, and I got
winded halfway back to bedroom.
I was like, we need more timers.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (30:20):
Well, you know, a long time ago we had
a, uh, I think it was a clientat Dwayne's that had, plugs
underneath the windows in thefront of her house that were all
on

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (30:26):
Oh yeah, for the little.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (30:28):
I, and I remember thinking, oh,
that is the most brilliantthing.
And whenever, whenever I grow upand I got money, um, I'm gonna
put that in my house.
And of course now I'm like, oh,that's never gonna happen.
But the, the timers have changedat all.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (30:39):
You never grow up or never gonna get
money.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (30:42):
Uh, probably never grow up.
I mean, look, the money, I don'tcare about money.
Money is, it, it, it helps awhole lot of problems that can
take care of things, but it's,it's never been one thing that
I've been focused on.
So it's, So it might be here oneday and it might be gone the
next and I won't be devastated,so,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (30:59):
It

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (31:00):
yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (31:00):
with the, uh, lawn care person.
next.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (31:03):
Uh, I'm also booking our tickets to
Scotland later today.
So,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (31:09):
Never.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (31:10):
Get your passport to way and get
your passport.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (31:14):
Okay.
I.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (31:17):
Another item on the list was, it says,
the thing I absolutely despisein a new home is an electrical
outlet turned horizontal on thebaseboard.
I think it's supposed to be anupscale feature in high end
homes, but personally I think itlooks like some architects just
decided this would be trendy.
Um, without looking at thedownsides, baseboards are meant

(31:38):
to serve a practical purpose

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (31:40):
Next,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (31:40):
the, that's what I thought.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (31:42):
which actually that's illegal to do
now.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (31:45):
Oh, really?

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (31:46):
You can't put it, you can't put it
in baseboard.
They were in baseboards in oldhouses because that's the only
way you could get'em.
You couldn't get through fourlayers of brick in horse hair,
plaster,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (31:56):
true.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (31:56):
so you had to bring'em through the
floor, and the baseboard was theclosest place to put'em.
That's why they were put there.
So she

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (32:04):
a historic significance.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (32:05):
does,

dwayne_1_03-06-202 (32:06):
appropriate.
Next, they're wrong.
They

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (32:08):
yeah.
It, it won't even pass it.
It won't pass an inspection.
Yeah.
Move on.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (32:14):
what's her name?
Helen.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (32:16):
oh,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (32:16):
know what you're talking about

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (32:19):
and the

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (32:19):
that was, that was from Stan.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (32:22):
Yes.
Stan.
Stan.
Don't know who

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (32:24):
Well, Stan ain't cleaning the
baseboards.
He ain't bend nowhere to do it.
Last time I cleaned thebaseboards by the way, I threw
my back out.
So we're gonna have to, I dunno.
That's

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (32:33):
I was gonna say, get a Swiffer
extender.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (32:35):
I'm using, now I use the, the
vacuum, the Dyson with the onlyone we have.
Just suck it up, baby.
And then I wipe it off.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (32:42):
Oh,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (32:42):
yeah, whatever we gotta do.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025 (32:44):
landscaping vacationing going Dyson Living
way.
You don't have a, you don't havelike a Hoover.
You have

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (32:52):
No, it was a Christmas gift

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (32:54):
Oh, I got a Ken Moore.
Mm.
I love a Ken Moore vacuum.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (32:59):
No.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (33:00):
the vacuum cleaner, you know, and it
wasn't that expensive built intothe walls, which

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (33:03):
Right.
The,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (33:04):

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (33:06):
yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (33:07):
But you know what?
My sweet mama, my granny had a,you ever heard of a Kirby

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (33:13):
Oh my God.
And they weighed 900 pounds.
Yes.
I.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (33:18):
She literally ab absent abject
poverty.
Yet somehow she managed orwanted or bought like.
A thousand dollars vacuumingcleaner, you know, 40 years ago.
Right.
And, um, when she passed my, forsome reason my mom knew that I
that and she made sure I got it.

(33:39):
And so, uh, it still works.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (33:41):
Yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (33:42):
is 50, 60 years old.
Still works.
And it is heavy and it has alight building to it, but every
once in a while I'll get it outjust upstairs where there's a
lot of carpeting and it's justthat little memory of, uh, that
vacuum cleaner.
But yeah, she heavy.
She

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (33:57):
Hmm.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (33:57):
Yeah.

Hmm

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (34:06):
I remember the bag kind of looked
like, uh.
You know, it was an exposed bag.
'cause it was, you know, canvasfor lack of better.
And it had like a, almost like aLouis Vuitton symbol on it, but
it wasn't, yeah,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (34:19):

It was, yeah.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (34:56):
into.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (34:57):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (34:57):
Hmm.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (34:58):
Hmm.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090 (34:58):
Learned

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (34:59):
Okay.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (35:00):
The last one I took offense to
because I have this and, um, itmakes me so happy.
But it's just a, a main bedroomclosets combined with laundry
room.
Meaning having a washer anddryer

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (35:13):
Like people don't like that.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (35:14):
Yeah.
So they say that, that she says,why do I want the moisture from
the washer and the dryer on myclothes mold?
And mildly that comes to mind.
I don't get it.
And I'm like, well, lemme

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (35:23):
What the fuck is she doing with her
laundry?
Is

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09 (35:26):
Exactly.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (35:27):
know.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (35:28):
I don't know if she's like.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (35:28):
your washer dryer leaking and mildew

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (35:30):
I know.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (35:31):
and D?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (35:31):
I mean, I, I, it is probably, it
is probably one of the bestdecisions we ever made when we
were, when we were working

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (35:42):
Yes, it's Smart

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_0909 (35:44):
'cause it, there was a little closet
and it, so we're using a fourthbedroom as our closet.
Um,'cause you know, no chil nochildren

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (35:51):
about, this is

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (35:52):
now these are old people,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09 (35:53):
boomers,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09 (35:55):
boomers.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (35:56):
which is funny because.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (35:57):
are old because it's a wide range of
people, but it was older.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (36:00):
the age of what?
What's the age group of boomers?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (36:02):
They were born in the baby boom after
the war.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_0909 (36:05):
that's me, right?

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (36:07):
Uh, yeah,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_0909 (36:08):
older.
I think you're

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (36:09):
you're right at the cutoff, I think.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (36:11):
Okay.
Okay.
I mean like, look, so far theseare things like, these people
ain't too smart.
Maybe

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (36:16):
No,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (36:16):
to go away.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (36:17):
think so either, because actually I'm,
I'm, I'm designing a new housefor some boomers and they've
never had children.
They're in their.
Mid to late sixties.
Uh, and it's on a farm.
So they wanted a big mud room, abig laundry room, a big, you
know,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090 (36:37):
Mm-hmm.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (36:37):
to dump all their stuff after they
come off.
'cause they actually work thefarm.
So they have a lot of dirtystuff every day.
I need to grab it, whatever.
And one of the changes she madewas she said, I love the size of
this mud room, however I'd liketo put the laundry in my closet
She goes,'cause nobody has touse it except us.
She goes, if we have guests,they're here for a few days and

(36:58):
if they need to wash somepanties, they should bring some
extra.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (37:05):
Yeah,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (37:05):
I was like, oh, okay.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:07):
in there.
It makes everything so

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (37:09):
Yeah.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:09):
take it right out of the dryer and
you put it right up.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (37:11):
Yeah.
I think it's smart.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:13):
I had, um, there, there was, uh,
someone who bought a home in, intheir closet there was the
washer and dryer, and they weregonna take it out because they
were concerned about all of thelint.
And I

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (37:27):
Again, what are these people doing to
their laundry?

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:31):
and maybe, I don't know.
I, I have no idea.
But I mean, you could, I don'tknow.
I, I,

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (37:35):
And do

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (37:36):
know.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0909 (37:36):
people realize how much lint and dust
in their clothes hanging intheir closet accumulate on
themselves?
I.
I

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:42):
I

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (37:42):
mean, it's just part of it,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:45):
I don't know.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_0 (37:45):
whatever.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:46):
I love

stuart_1_03-06-2025_09090 (37:47):
Well, this survey you read was dumb.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (37:49):
Well, I didn't say it was right.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (37:53):
Go to a different source.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (37:54):
just fascinates me.
What people, I mean, again, ofcourse this, what was I
listening to?
There was a podcast I waslistening to the other day, and
these people were complainingabout something.
They were really, complaining isnot the word.
They were really bitching aboutsomething.
And of course the, the irony wasthat what they were bitching
about.
It was the very thing that theywere talking about, like there,

(38:16):
and I can't remember how itworked, but I was like, it's so
funny that you can't, you can'tsee the force of the trees,
right?
When I was reading it, I waslike, this isn't making sense to
me.
I love it.
Why do they feel like, feel likethis?
And I was like, oh, well there'sthings that I don't really care
about and I probably have my ownreasons and that probably means
absolutely shit to anybody else.

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_09090 (38:35):
Yeah,

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (38:35):
know,

dwayne_1_03-06-2025_090904 (38:36):
an opinion

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_090908 (38:37):
it's just an opinion at the end of
the day.
Yeah.

stuart_1_03-06-2025_090907 (38:39):
and you know what opinions are like.

jeremy_1_03-06-2025_09090 (38:42):
