It's just a big fiasco overhere.
There's no snow machine.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
How is Marco doing?

Speaker 1 (00:51):
He's okay, it's just, you know the snow machine.
Have you ever seen the Drakeand Josh movie?
Mm-hmm.
Do you know the Christmas one?
Yes, where they live inCalifornia and then they get the
wood chipper and then they putthe logs in and it creates snow
like a snow-like thing.
That's what we got.
We actually got the one fromthe movie and it's just, it's a

(01:14):
big setup.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
It's taking too much time Time out.
Do we even have that in thebudget?
Like I was totally all down upuntil I thought about it.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Actually, I completely take that bit back,
because I just realized thewhole dan schneider thing.
I'm not going to be associatedwith that at all.
Well, it is getting intochristmas, though.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
I'm starting to feel the spirit me too I'm very
grinchy normally but I think Idon't know.
I'm trying not to be as Grinchy, but I love the Grinch, I ain't
gonna lie, I love it Before theshow.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Last week I bought the Charlie Brown record and
I've been playing that over andover again.
But before the show we werepouring a Coke.
What did they do?

Speaker 2 (02:02):
They took the polar bear off and they put on the
Santa and I believe the Santastarted in the 70s on the can,
the Santa for Christmas, Becauseyou know, Coke always has those
very classic cans.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
I do like the new can , but now that you bring up the
polar bear he's like a forgottenfriend and I miss him.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
I do miss him.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
They need a different collab, like a different and
like what would be anotheranimal that we could put on the
coke can to symbolize christmastime.
Why have they never used areindeer?

Speaker 2 (02:36):
bump that reindeer.
It was just rude.
It was just rude and he neededthis.
He needed the magic of Santa tofly.
They only used his nose.
Now we got flashlights and cellphones.
You better put that cell phonedown.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yes, I don't know.
Alright, should we get into theopener of the day?
Yes, give the people what they.
Potentially probably want Alittle food for thought.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
The food for thought today.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
Everybody is baking their cookies.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Right now, just getting it out of the way, I do
want to do a massive shout outTo my Aunt, melissa.
Yeah, she gave me her Spotifywrapped and we were number two
of her top three podcasts, socan we give a?
Yeah, melissa, this isabsolutely for you and thank you
, and I love you so much she'sprobably the only one that's on

(04:57):
the thing I know casen told metoday when we were playing
basketball.
He said uh, I'm almost caught upand I was like we're recording
one today, so you better hurryup almost caught up.
He's been almost caught upsince first I know not like he
has a job or anything, but youknow no big deal.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
My husband's not caught up at all, I have to
remind me he's like I will saymy mom is the only one that's
like every single one.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
She just walks around the park.
It's very sweet, she walksaround the park, but we's very
sweet.
She walks around the parkmoving her ear, but we're also
really thankful for the peoplethat casually put us in whenever
they get the chance.
But to be on Spotify wrapped onpodcast is pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
I know right.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
Okay, today from the Daily Stoic, the reading, of
course, is from Ryan Holiday andStefan Hanselman.
Today is from Ryan Holiday andStefan Hanselman Today.
Let me get a deep breath.
I always get so worked up.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
You do.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Should we do some Lamaze breathing?

Speaker 2 (05:57):
And you know what makes it worse.
Neither one of us had a kid, soI don't know why we're I hope I
don't have a kid.
You better not If you're theone having a kid we need to
worry, we're rich, I think we've.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
I think we've already fleshed out how I feel about
that um beforehand.
Let's not talk about that onthe microphone.
Uh, december 6th, from theDaily Stoic, the sword dangles
over you.
This quote by Marcus Rullis inMeditations Don't behave as if
you are destined to live forever.

(06:33):
What's faded hangs over you aslong as you live and while you
can become good.
Now, and the quote from RyanHoliday is there's an ancient
story of a courtierC-O-U-R-T-I-E-R.
Okay, let me start that overand I'll say courtier, I don't

(06:56):
know.
There's an ancient story of acourtier who had made light of
the responsibilities of his king.
To prove he was mistaken, theking arranged to switch places
with the courtier so he couldexperience what it was like to
be king.
The king made one otheradjustment he hung a sword by a
hair over the throne toillustrate the peril and burden

(07:17):
of kingship, as well as theconstant fear of assassination.
We call that dangling reminderof death and difficulty the
sword of domiciles.
The reality is that a similarsword hangs over all of us.
Life can be taken from us atany moment, and that threat can

(07:41):
send us in one of two directionswe can fear and dread it, or we
can use it to motivate us To dogood and to be good, because
the sword is dangling andthere's nothing else to be
concerned with.
Would you rather it catch youin the middle of something
shameful and a selfish act, orwould you rather it catch you

(08:03):
waiting to be good in the future?
Waiting to be good in thefuture.
Waiting to be good in thefuture, me duh I don't want to
be in a shameful act.
Can you imagine I cry it's, it'sthe it's the fundamental kaizen
thing too, that one percentbetter each day there we we go,
noah, welcome back.

(08:23):
It's been a week.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Oh my goodness.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Did that sound better ?
Yes, I stumbled over that onesentence.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
It was probably quite clear.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
I hope that word is the word that it actually is.
I hope that word is the wordthat the word is.
I hope that word is the wordthat the word actually wording I
don't know okay, I was talkingto ryan the other day and I was
like yes, you were, I alwaysjust like I'll start a bit and
then it's like a lily pad for me.

(09:01):
So I'll say like one joke, andthen that'll be like the initial
lily pad, and then I'll likefind the joke along the way.
So I'll keep reiterating thesame joke until I get to like
the end destination lily pad.
That's like the final joke.
And he's like yeah, you justtake us along for the ride, it's
great.

Speaker 2 (09:22):
Pretty much.
That's exactly how it doeshappen.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
It's fun.
I think as a kid I hit like apoint of you know how like
one-liners are.
Very like I think I've hit.
A point in my life is now where, like I can fill enough space
and as soon as I like seepeople's eyes start to glaze of
like where they think I'm going,I'll hit them with it and
they'll be like oh okay, I getit.
They're like yeah that's wherewe were going the whole time.

(09:48):
I don't know why we veered offin so many different uh exits.
But okay, there we are summer2025 norris comedy tour.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
It is hitting your city.
Check your local box office fortickets.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yep.
We'll be performing in Reno,Uruguay.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Damn, reno, damn, we couldn't get Vegas.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
No, not yet I was like ew Reno.
We couldn't get the Dome yetthey're on the line, okay.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
Oh my goodness, so Noah, my belly's full.
That was good.
Oh yes, we had some chicken andsome artichoke.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
I feel like I have stuff to burn now in my body.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
It's great yeah, noah cooked a really good meal this
is one of the lower maintenance.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
We need to put a picture of it up on the like.
Just the two things we had.
We need to do that.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, that'll be, but it's definitely like something
with the ammages yeah, yeah, wetold her, we cooked the meal I
was like no, it cooked it yeahyou don't kill the chicken at
all kill the chicken at all.
Pluck that mofo.
No, what is something you lookforward to every day?

Speaker 1 (11:13):
um, well, I look forward to every day.
Well, uh, probably at the endof the year or that.
Well, now, I think it'sdifferent the yearly, so I feel
like I'm trying to find somesort of momentum right now to
like roll over into 2025.
Yep, um, so that, what was thequestion?

Speaker 2 (11:38):
what is something you look forward to every day?

Speaker 1 (11:40):
right now, every day, I'm looking forward to building
up that momentum, and I thinkthat it's mundane and it's
monotonous, but it's something Igot to do right now Building up
that resilience and momentuminto a year that I want to put

(12:00):
100% into, because I feel likefor a lot of my life I haven't
put in nearly as much as I couldhave.
So that's fair which, at 25,you're kind of like fucking, I
mean being stupid yeah but, yeah, I just want to work out all
the wrinkles before everybodyelse did, so I can like flick

(12:21):
them all off and be like I I gotit.
No, I'm joking, I'm doing itfor me.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
One percent better right.
What about you, anna?
For me it's kind of similarbecause I have a few things
popping off in 2025.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
I'm just going to start doing ad-libs over here.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
I so.
But as of right now, 2024, whatI have looked forward to every
day besides, you know, justwaking up and getting that
wake-up call is being able tostart all over, because when you
have been around kids when theywere newborn babies, and you

(13:09):
see them grow or you've beenpart of their growth, it's a
whole lot different than whenyou get kids that you've never
been around with and they havetheir own traits in life yeah
and so I know personally I havenot handled that 100 the best um

(13:29):
, and I'm not a gentle parenter.
However, I have two differentkids with two different
personalities, so some needgentle, some needs yeah and so
yeah, and I have been all thetime, so I need to meow some of
the time.
So that is what I've beenlooking forward to every day

(13:50):
starting over and regrouping,and in 2025, I'm gonna be a meow
kind of parent kind of like amore self-reflection.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
I I think yeah, I've never been one, but I feel like
there's just a lot of.
If it was a play, it's a runand gun.
You don't get it, you just goand obviously hindsight's, 20-20

(14:22):
.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
And I think you're doing a great job is my point.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yes, there's stuff you can fix, but it's not even
fixing.
It's self-reflecting and tryingto make better and it's always
going to be that.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Dang.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
That was so good.
I'm killing this today.
You are, I'm in Chop, chop,chop yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Locked in.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
he's back crisis over the audience is like what
happened he's so deep.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
I'm like Socrates without the little boy touching.
Did he touch little boys?

Speaker 2 (15:01):
I was gonna just ask you.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
I'm Socrates without that.

Speaker 2 (15:05):
I'm like is that Diddy's ancestor?
What is the deal?
But yeah, so you know y'all wehave decided to do it's kind of
like a segment, but it's weirdnews around the world.

Speaker 1 (15:28):

excited.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
It's a funny story.

reality.

I should have probably read it first.
That wasn't weird enough.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
No, it wasn't weird, I was thinking Dinkelberg was
weirder.
Oh Lord, oh Lord.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
But yes, yes so.

I might, I might.
Can I just say I got the PartyPack Haritos last week when I
went to the grocery storeBecause I'm trying to Segment my
sugar For reasons I don't wantto explain, and I tried Every
Haritos flavor and this is thelast one.
Last one was Guava, because Iliked how it looked pink.

Just a Harito's tier list Topthree.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
Mine is pineapple, pineapple.

Speaker 1 (21:34):

I hope that's one.
You mean mandarin Turmeric wasweird.

.
I think I like fruity shit.

(21:54):
I'm not fruity, but I likefruity shit.
Well, I can sometimes.
Never mind I mean all of themare fruits.
Well, turmeric's a fruit, wellit's not a fruit that one looks
like pit, Like not even pit.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
But you know turmeric's very healthy for you.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
I mean, it helps your liver.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
I like the sugar in those, it's like cane.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
Yeah, turmeric helps your liver and you can cook with
it too.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Yeah, it didn't taste terrible, it was just the color
is why I drank it first.
It looked.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
I only like two flavors the mandarin orange and
pineapple.
That's it.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
I liked pineapple.

Speaker 2 (22:29):
I liked mango, I love pineapple everything.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
What is both a blessing and a curse In your
life, um.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
My wisdom and discernment and I don't say that
to be cocky, so now I know itis Considered wisdom and
discernment.
So and I don't say that to becocky, shay, shay, so now I know
it is it's considered wisdomand discernment.
However, I did not know thatwhen I was a kid Um, and now
that I'm older, and even when Iwas a kid, like it would get me
kind of in some trouble withother kids because they're just

(23:01):
like you're reading me, and it'snot that I'm reading them, but
it's just this.
I don't want to say I can seethe future, but it's just like
this wisdom, I can see thefuture.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
Wait, is that a Travis Scott line?
But I just I can see the future.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
We're looking up the meadows to the sky, this walking
CD player over here, thiswalking CD player.
My aunt would always AuntCheryl CD player.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
My aunt would always Aunt Cheryl.
Anytime you'd say something,she'd just start singing what
you just said back to you likein a song, and I always loved
her for that.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
I mean, she's still alive, and it's probably like on
point too, Like it's a goodbeat, so good, and her voice was
amazing.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
I was just like how are you doing this?
How did your mind work thatfast?
And I think that's probably whyI do it now, because I like
revered it so much as a kid Notto cut you off.
Continue, yes.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
I mean, but no, yes, you do, do that all the time,
not cut me off.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
But Well, I think we both do.
We find our pockets.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Yeah, it's our charm.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
It really is.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
It's like what's the conversation between us with no
cutting off?
What's the conversation betweenus with no cutting off?
But I think it's a blessing,yeah exactly that's what I'm
kidding.
I think it's a blessing butit's also a curse, Especially
when you're trying to tellsomeone something and they're
just kind of like I don'tunderstand.
And it's like you get flustered, Like how the hell you don't

(24:23):
understand what I'm telling you,Like you don't see it.
You don't see it, you don't seeit, but it's because I have
that futuristic little.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 2 (24:32):
Vision and it's kind of wild Because I don't know.
We were talking about somethinga few months ago and I was like
, yeah, and you're just like,how do you know?

Speaker 1 (24:41):
I'm like I just know Like I mean.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
granted, you were okay with me, just saying I know
you didn't go deep and just belike oh she doesn't know, but
there's idiots who do, and it'sjust like well, it's also
sometimes I probably know, but Itry.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I think I'm holding out hope for it to end up a
little different.
Do you ever do that?

Speaker 2 (25:05):
yeah, I can see you doing that.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
Yeah, and it never does.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
And auntie just sits here and I'm just like okay.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Not coming back to the existential podcast last
week.
That's what that one's calledand it'll never come out.
The existential crisis.
You never know you never know,I'm never going to listen to it.
No, but Blessing and a Cursefor me, probably the Way I think

(25:36):
.
I think I don't know.
I think Way I like, how I thinkon some days and then other
days I don't know why I'm doingit like I should have.
Like how you think too hard oncertain situations like I tell
myself I should have done this,I should have done that
yesterday.

(25:57):
I dub myself all the timecoulda, shoulda, woulda but I
think I'll always like,subconsciously, do that.
It's gonna be wanting to moveforward.
Um, not hearing it as loud, uh,and that's my thing.

(26:18):
My brain even that like metailing off into whatever I was
just talking about then answersthe primary question.
It's just like how I think.
I think I find rabbit holesvery easily.

Speaker 2 (26:32):
You try to Because you do, you do.
I definitely will say youdefinitely doubt yourself a lot,
even when you're making theright decision.
That's why yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Yesterday perfect example Made the right decision,
but yeah, yesterday, perfectexample made the right decision,
but yeah, you were like wow andit was like oh my god, oh, my,
god, oh my god, oh, my goodness,fucking catheter fell out and
yeah, now okay, I slept finelast night I'm not gonna lie
that one did not keep me up butit took me leaving the situation

(27:07):
to understand.
I did the right thing.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
You definitely did the right thing.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
I just don't like talking to the police, that's it
.
I just don't like talking tothem.
They were there on a wellnesscheck.
It was not anything bad.
I listened to too much NWAgrowing up.
You did.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
You did.
I was like I'm not afraid ofthe police and I am black, but
you are like, oh my gosh, thepolice.
I'm like what is the problemboiled?

Speaker 1 (27:32):
boiled down.
Listening to too much md nwa iswhy I'm scared of the police we
won't get into the whole fourepisode long story.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
That is actually why I am but yeah, yeah, because I'm
like I have no issue.
I'm like yo, officer, I needyour help.
I have no problem calling 911.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
I take back what I'm saying.
I have unlearned a lot of myanxieties with them.

Speaker 2 (27:57):
I hope so, because we kind of need them Living here
in this area.
Yeah, it's very aristocratic.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
Yeah, where were we?

Speaker 2 (28:10):
Oh, I do have another weird story too.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
Do you?

Speaker 2 (28:13):
I do.
Okay, this one may actually beweird.
So the world's oldest knownwild bird lays an egg in Hawaii
at the age of 74.
He was creeping up on the mosesyears.
The oldest known wild bird inthe world has laid an egg at the

(28:35):
ripe age.
They said ripe, that is justman, that's devious, right.

Speaker 1 (28:39):
They're throwing that bird under the bus ran it over
and probably gonna cook it.
At the age of 74.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
Her first in four years.
Four years is who she is.

Speaker 1 (28:52):
I got family members that haven't made it to 74.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
Is she Eve of the birds, Like what is the deal?
Why is she having all thesebabies?

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Wait, but also 74.
7 plus 4 equals 11.
I'm not gonna, I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
I'm gonna keep going.
But what made it even worse?
Her last time she had somebabies when she was 70 that's
insanity.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Could you imagine a human doing that?

Speaker 2 (29:23):
I'm sure there's one human in the world that's done
that, but I hope not it wouldcome out like a a boil day it's
true, oh, but who on purposedecided, to my own stomach turn?
impregnate a 70 year old humanlike who, who, no, who knows

(29:47):
y'all let's not even think,y'all, if y'all know somebody or
know a story please?
Get in our way send it our way,because I want send it our way
and get them neutered because Iwant to know what is the dealio
and um, where can I get thatgolden egg from?
Anyways, back to the story.

(30:07):
The long-winged seabird namedWisdom what?

Speaker 1 (30:16):
The short-winged feather cat named Samson.
No, the short-winged feathercat named Knowledgeable Like
what the hell.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Well, I'm sure it does have a lot of wisdom at 74.
I mean, it's seen a lot.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
Okay, bird wisdom Are we going to start teaching that
in schools now?

Speaker 2 (30:34):
They have had to probably dodge bullets Like
they've had a whole war.
They've seen a lot of 74 yearshoney.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
That bird has a purple heart.
Exactly Like it a purple heart.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
Exactly Like it is.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Just you know that bird can say to every bird ever
y'all are all here because I gotlaid Right, and then just call
it a day.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
But named Wisdom, a Laysan albatross, returned to
Midway Atoll National WildlifeRefuge at the northwestern edge
of the Hawaiian Archipelago.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
So it's in good climate.
I was wondering that that mightbe why.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
And laid what experts estimate may be her 60th egg.
She a ho-ho.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
Heck.
No, we don't know what birdculture is like.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
I wonder, does she have the same baby daddy for all
of them?
We don't know what bird cultureis like.
I wonder, does she have thesame baby daddy for all of them?
We don't know well, no,probably not.
Some of them had to die, so wedon't know what bird culture is
like.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
It could be.
That could be like verypromiscuous.
I mean not permit what ispromiscuous, very not
promiscuous.
Yeah, yeah, very not permitbird culture 2025.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
So they need to stop tweaking all over then if, if
you're just gonna be twerkingeverywhere anyways.
The specific region of the usfish and wildlife service said
in a facebook post this weekwisdom and her mate, uh can't
pronounce that name?

Speaker 1 (32:04):
What's her?

Speaker 2 (32:04):
mate Her mate's name is Akikamahi had returned to the
atoll in the Pacific Ocean tolay and hatch eggs since 2006.
Oh, she's been having the samepartner for a while.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
That's what I mean.
Okay, okay, she ain't a ho-ho,I'm with Wisdom.
Wisdom is not a ho-ho.
I fucks with Wisdom.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
Oh ho-ho, I fucks with wisdom.
Oh, good fact, it's coming up.
Lays an albatross's mate forlife and lay one egg per year.

Speaker 1 (32:36):
Wait, that's actually really cool.
One forever.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
So she's been having them since 14.
We need to talk to Samtha, butthe old bird cause, how old's
her partner?

Speaker 2 (32:49):
I was all for bird culture until now.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
I'm worried that this old ass man slept with your old
Albatross.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
How did we?
I don't know, but we don't know.

Speaker 1 (33:01):
They said let's just say they're both 14 when the
first egg was laid.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
We're going to assume this, don't know.
They said in this article.
Let's just say they're both 14when the first egg was laid.
We're gonna assume this, butakamahahi has not been seen for
several years and wisdom beganinteracting with another male
when she returned last week.
See no well, maybe he died heprobably did die, he he laying
eggs.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
That's fine.
Let wisdom continue.
He is doing too.
Let wisdom continue to he isdoing too much.
Let wisdom continue to flap herflaps, boom, boom.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
He had to take that Viagra, so he just it was time
for him to go.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
We can let wisdom flap her flaps.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
They're probably eviscerated by now.
Every egg had a new baby daddy.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
Every time she's flying.
They're very close to the water.
Mm-hmm, we are obviouslymissing they ain't flaps anymore
, they're curtains with the windgone with the wind we are
optimistic that the egg willhatch right.

Speaker 2 (33:55):
I don't know how, but anyways, we are optimistic that
the egg will hatch.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
We need more rights for the albatrosses we need more
albatross rights they got a lotof rights.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
clearly they live until 74.
Oh you're right.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
Wait, what's the standard age of like when humans
pass away now, can you lookthat up, jarvis?
What's life expenses, jarvis?

Speaker 2 (34:21):
Anyways, let me finish this article really quick
.
We are optimistic that the eggwill hatch.
Jonathan Pilsner, a supervisorywildlife biologist at Midway
Atoll National.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
Wildlife 78 years, so that bird is almost at a human
life.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Mm-hmm, yeah, that makes sense.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
We need to get her on the show.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
She be like caw-caw.
That's how we're going to hearthe whole episode C caw caw.

Speaker 1 (34:50):
Like that's all we're gonna hear the whole episode
caw caw.
I'll send my carrier pigeon toextend the invite to this
albatross.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
Every year, millions of seabirds return to the refuge
to nest and raise their youngwow nest albatross return to the
refuge, to nest and raise theiryoung Wow Nest, mm-hmm.
Albatross, albatross, albatross, right, albatross.
Parents take turns incubatingan egg for about two months.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
That's the Bird Island jail.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
Well, that's cool.
At least they take turns.
You know, incubating the eggChicks fly out to sea about five
to six months after hatching.
Wow To what.
They're on maternity leave fora long time.
They spend most of their livesflying over the ocean and
feeding on squid and fish eggs.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
That's so cool actually.
Could, you imagine doing like afive, like every kid they have,
they take a road trip.
They're like, okay, I'll beback in six months I would love
that.
He does all the dirty work.

Speaker 2 (35:58):
Literally.

Speaker 1 (35:59):
When she gets back to birth, ready to fly, all she's
got to do is have another one,literally.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
Yes, dang, she just pops a squat.
But they both take turns everytwo months incubating them
little bastards.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
So that's awesome.
Yeah, that way, the bird getsthe father's nut and sack warmth
and the little bird also getsthe I can't Wait the gooch
warmth.
What Are we allowed to say,gooch?

(36:32):
I feel like we're far enoughinto the podcast where I'm
allowed to say gooch.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
We have said so much things that probably are not
right.

Speaker 1 (36:41):
I think they're right .

Speaker 2 (36:43):
Okay, I'm glad you stick by it, you, you strong.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
If it's wrong, I don't want to be right.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
What the hell.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
I got a little thing in my throat.
Pause, scratch.

Speaker 2 (37:01):

learning guitar.

Speaker 2 (37:28):
So that's the luxury You've allowed yourself.

Yeah, because I wouldn't segment time For it in
the past, gotcha.
So now, like dedicating, I'vebeen doing like 45 minutes a day

not going a place.
And then last night it actuallyfelt like I was getting a
better mind-finger connection.

That would be a great idea.
Yes, and it'll push us Writethat down.

like it's getting to the pointwhere it's like oh, they're
gonna remove.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Yeah, they're gonna remove the whole toenail I hope
so.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
They need to remove the toe.
Oh lord, I think it's actuallydoing more like less for my
balance that no I can't say thatI don't know what it's.

Speaker 2 (41:30):
I really hope I don't lose my toe no, it's the one
next to it oh, you don't needthat toe.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
You said that so affirmatively.

Speaker 2 (41:38):
You don't.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
You don't actually.

Speaker 2 (41:40):
No, I mean, you've seen Jerry.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Does he not have a toe?

Speaker 2 (41:45):
Yeah, he doesn't have a middle finger toe.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
Oh, that's hilarious, Kaysen to me.
When I told him about it whenwe were playing basketball, he
looked at me and he goes youdon't want to be the guy with
nine toes and I said I, I havealways wanted to be the guy.
Yeah, look at the track recordand socks.

Speaker 2 (42:03):

has nine toes, matter of fact mydad run yeah, okay, cool.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:11):
No, he's fine yeah, it's all good, I think you would
just learn.
And I mean they can put a andthat's only if you want.

Speaker 2 (42:16):
They can put a spacer in between there if you really
have balance issues.
But you shouldn't.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
I wouldn't.
And then it would be how theycurl afterwards.
That I'd be worried about.
That'd be a little nasty, allright, what I'm thinking way too
far ahead I was like what Iwould just wear socks all the
time.

Speaker 2 (42:36):
You'll be fine.
You'll be fine.
And then funny story, talkingabout people with.
You know not all theirligaments, an ice cube just went
.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
I thought I was choking.
I was like oh, it'll melt.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Yeah, it'll melt, You'll be fine.
I mean, it's a little blue fora while, It'll be fine.
I mean it's kind of a littleblue for a while, but you'll be
alright.
My dad used to always say heonly had a .45.
And growing up I always used tothink it was a gun.
So I would tell kids at schoolmy dad has a .45.
Well, my dad was in the WorldWar II.
Yeah, I have old parents and sohe really did.

(43:14):
He had four fingers on one handand five on the other, so he'd
always say I have a 45.
He was in World War.

Speaker 1 (43:19):
II.
Mm-hmm, what?
Yeah, you have never told methis.
That's like one of the coolestfacts of all time.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
Well, you're welcome.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
Now you know Jeez he has four fingers on one hand.
Yeah, how like people shake hishand he just shook his hand
okay yeah, he had no problemokay cool.
Yeah, that's so cool.
Did he lose it in the war?

Speaker 2 (43:42):
yeah, geez no, it was .
It's just kind of funny becausehe was protecting the berlin
wall that is so cool so yeah, hehas a 45.
Well, he had a 45, he.
Now he probably somebody got a45 in the ground.

Speaker 1 (43:58):
Bones yeah, termites, I mean he still got a 45.
Not termites.
Man, I've always thought aboutthat.
Do you think if you ever lostsomething, like when you got to
heaven, you got it back andyou're like this is how good it
felt, like this is how good itcould have felt the whole time,
or like any of the injuries youaccumulate down here?

Speaker 2 (44:18):
Good question.
Should we call up God and askhim?

Speaker 1 (44:22):
Welcome to the God section of the Green Onions
podcast, where we call up Jesusand ask him what's really going
on.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
You probably sent us the voicemail.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
What were you saying yesterday?
The chants thing we weretalking about how, like I gave
you another chance and this iswhat you do with it, right.

Speaker 2 (44:47):
He's like oh lord, and you just told me last week
you would never do nothingstupid again.
And you did it again.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
Look at you now.
It's back in the same shit.

Speaker 2 (44:55):
I just got you out of last week, yeah, and you have
nerd to call me.
You go to the back of the linego to the back of the line.
You number 13.
Take your number.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
I'm sitting around here on my translucent orb,
twiddling my thumbs and solvingshit, and you come here with the
same bullshit right, right,just different day, different
day we Different day.
We're trying, we're trying downhere.
He's like no, you ain't trying.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
You ain't trying, you're doing the same thing.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
I'm giving you the will to try.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
He's like I'm giving you the whole layout and here
you are, the enchilada.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
Yeah, you're all curious and you're still in the
kiddie pond twiddling yourlittle bird feet, your albatross
feet.

Speaker 2 (45:35):
I don't know what to do.
Lord, you don't know what to do.
I gave you a whole book of whatto do.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
Oh, my goodness.

Speaker 1 (45:44):
I don't believe that.

Speaker 2 (45:46):
He didn't give us a whole book.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
He didn't write it.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
It solves problems.

Speaker 1 (45:53):
It does solve problems.
I will agree with that.
It solves problems it doessolve.
I will agree with that.
It's all wrong.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
I will agree whether it's socrates or moses, it
doesn't matter socrates was inokay no, he was not.
I don't even know why I broughthim up, because I guess, well,
I feel like they aren't in thesame era that's a good point, no
, not at all.
No, not at all.
You're right way off.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
But those errors always get muddled for me, like
when was rome built?
If rome wasn't built in a day,but Rome was around while Jesus
was around, who made it?
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (46:19):
I don't know.
Their outfits look the same.
Is that, pammy?

Speaker 1 (46:21):
You want to say hi.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
We have a special guest in our lounge.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
Yeah, she's just walking around.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
Yeah, pammy, I think her movie went off.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
You want to reset it.
I can keep them entertained fora little bit.
Oh harsh.
Okay, let me find a weird newsstory.
So guess what y'all?
I bought for my first time aNetflix subscription because I
wanted to watch the the man onthe inside 10 out of 10 show.

(47:00):
I watched it.
Uh, in a couple nights.
Um, the other subscription Idecided to purchase was nba
league pass.
Because, let's be honest, whyare so many subscriptions like
youtube tv?
Does anybody know what thatcosts a month for the base plan

(47:27):
youtube tv with all like thestupid channels like spike or
whatever the shit it cost?
It's 73.
So I was like, let's get to theroot of this.
All I want to do is watch abasketball game.
So I went to nba league passand it was only 15.
So now I have two 15 chargescoming out and also mcdonald's

(47:53):
another app I downloaded has.
If you go on there, they dodaily deals.
Yeah, they do.
Man, I earn a lot of points offthat stuff.
Two days ago I got a 20-piecenugget and a basket of fries for
$8.99.
And I don't care if it's catmeat $8.99 is Dude you missed

(48:15):
the 20-piece, 20 piece.

Speaker 2 (48:16):
No, they have the 10 piece for a dollar.
Um a few days ago, yeah what?

Speaker 1 (48:23):
honey.
Well, today they got.
If you buy a six piece, you geta six piece.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
So now, now I know what I'm doing after the gym but
, dude, I'm telling you, honey,yes, and you earn points so fast
on the mcdonald.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
I already had like 4,000 based on that one, yeah,
and you just do tap to payMm-hmm.
Also, what are your feelings onthe McRib?
Have you ever had?
It Okay, I either know peoplethat love it, never had it, or
throw up when you mention it.

Speaker 2 (48:49):
So I personally have never tried it.
Jerry has tried it, but itdeterred me from wanting to try
it.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
And I occasionally, you know, I'll do something.
I think I tried it at one pointand I didn't hate it, no.

Speaker 2 (49:01):
But here's the problem I can't get it out of my
head.
I have a friend.
She worked on the JeffreyDahmer case.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
Yep, I'm done.

Speaker 2 (49:09):
Yeah, yeah, okay, I don't need I say anymore.
And so anyway, she showed mepictures.
You know we were in college orwhatever, we did a report or
whatever on it.
Okay, so that already freaks meout.
You know, serial killers,they're just, they're not my
friends wait was he, did he?
But he compared eating a mcribto eating a person oh, I'm out

(49:31):
so now I'm good never again likewe.
I don't need to.

Speaker 1 (49:35):
And I think the time I ate the McRib I was like four
years old, so that's just not.

Speaker 2 (49:39):
Yeah, so it was in my head.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
It's not a shame little Noah for eating a McRib
when he didn't know any better.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
Well, yeah, exactly, but still no shame.
No shame, but I can't get itout of my head to even try it
now, because I'm like yeah, now,every time I I can't even look.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
Even the brown color is unsettling.
Like who wants to get brownfood from a restaurant Other
than like a steak or like Likesomething that saucy, like
Salisbury steak, for example?

Speaker 2 (50:12):
I don't like Salisbury steak.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Everybody's the restaurant the the ch house.
For example, I don't likesalisbury steak.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
Everybody's the restaurant the the house chop
house well don't say it we'regonna say it's just old people
food what it really is.

Speaker 1 (50:28):
They have great drinks, but like that food is so
under seasoned.

Speaker 2 (50:33):
And oh, a salisbury steak well, I've never been to
that chop house.
The chop house I've been to wasin Knoxville Last time.

Speaker 1 (50:38):
I went was like a year ago two years ago.

Speaker 2 (50:42):
Maybe it's different Staff changed.
Well, Knoxville chop house isgood, so I've never tried the
Franklin one.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
Turnover.
Maybe I'm wrong.

Speaker 2 (50:52):
Maybe you got the cook that doesn't know how to
season.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
It's kind of like Cracker.
Barrel.
You walk in and you're feeling,I feel, a little discriminated
against Just for having tattoosor wearing a hat or being Young.

Speaker 2 (51:09):
You're only talking about your tattoos.

Speaker 1 (51:11):
I'm like you mean basically for being young or not
drinking black coffee?

Speaker 2 (51:15):
Unless you're on a cane and you've got arthritis in
your back.

Speaker 1 (51:18):
I will say Cracker Barrel is the place for little
white girls to get employed andsmile.
And then all the weird olddudes just throw you a bunch of
money.
If I got reincarnated and I hada choice, I don't know what I
would pick.
I don't know where I was goingwith that, but I'd probably be
like Snoopy or something.

(51:40):
I'd love to be Snoopy, but likethe traumatic war story that he
goes through and the Halloween,that's what I've been doing
every like the holidays I'vebeen spending like here, I just
watch the Charlie Brown specialsfor them.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
Oh, that's nice.

Speaker 1 (52:01):
The Halloween one's my favorite.

Speaker 2 (52:03):
Did I faint?

Speaker 1 (52:05):
When Linus is in the pumpkin patch waiting for the
great pumpkin, did I faint?
I'm the most sincere.
This is the most sincerepumpkin patch I love the most
sincere.
This is the most sincerepumpkin patch.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
I love how you toggle , because you were talking about
the little chicks in thecracker barrel and how, if you
got reincarnated, then you wentstraight up to Charlie Brown.
That's what you've been doing.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
I'm like wow, that was a pretty long.
That was a far reach.

Speaker 2 (52:34):
Yeah, it was, do I?

Speaker 1 (52:35):
toggle too much.

Speaker 2 (52:37):
No.

Speaker 1 (52:38):
Okay.
Now that I'm starting to thinkI don't know where my brain
draws the.
Like the glink, you know what Imean.
Like the connector.

Speaker 2 (52:48):
You know what it?

Speaker 1 (52:49):
is.

Speaker 2 (52:49):
It's a little weird, it's that you had Coca-Cola with
the Santa from the 70s on it,that's what it is and I had a
read on it and, who knows, I'malready geeked out.
This Coke may be from the 70s.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
I'm good with that.
That's the stuff that gets therust out of your car.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
That's even worse.
It's going to get the rusthopefully out of our livers.
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (53:10):
Well, I think.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
The world is a brighter place.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
I think the world is a brighter place.
I think the world is a brighterplace when me and you are
sitting at this round tablediscussing things.

Speaker 2 (53:20):
We need to get us a Sons of Anarchy table.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
Is that like the what ?

Speaker 2 (53:25):
Have you ever seen Sons of Anarchy?

Speaker 1 (53:27):
No, I've had people tell me to watch it you just
need to look up.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
Well, it is a great show.

Speaker 1 (53:32):
I definitely love it, but their table where?

Speaker 2 (53:34):
they have their club meetings.
That table is freaking awesome.

Speaker 1 (53:37):
Is it like the last table, like the last supper
table?

Speaker 2 (53:41):
Yeah, but it has the Reaper what it's a badass table.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (53:45):
I know.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
Probably not Because I went from Breaking.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
Bad to.

Speaker 1 (53:48):
I tried to get into Vikings that show sucked.
I tried to get into Archer thatshow sucked.
I tried to get into Archer thatshow sucked.
And then I landed Archer didn'tsuck all the way through the CW
shows.
They jumped the shark.
Well, in that era the CW showsjumped the shark so hard at a

(54:10):
season it's like what the heckam I watching?
Like Flash for the first twoseasons I was totally invested,
totally into it.
And then, like Time Travel gotintroduced and like I was like
why?
Also, there was another showthat was like that.
It was, um, I do like Supernet.
Like there are some shows likePsych or Detective shows where
you like the characters.
They can kind of do that.
Yeah, because you're not thatinvested in the story.

(54:31):
Yeah, like psych or detectiveshows where you like the
characters, they can kind of dothat.
Yeah, um, because you're notthat invested in the story yeah,
because it doesn't have a setstoryline.
No and that's why I really dolike the new shows that are
coming out, like the exclusiveones, because they only keep it
to like eight episodes.
So everything's pretty tight.
Um, but where'd that start?

(54:54):
I was trying to pull it back.
I was trying to find anotherroute to take to pull it back to
what we were originally talkingabout.

Speaker 2 (55:03):
I didn't even remember what we were originally
talking about.
It just went so whatever.
Oh yes, the Sons of Anarchytable.

Speaker 1 (55:12):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (55:12):
We do need one.

Speaker 1 (55:15):
Never gotten to Walking Dead either either.

Speaker 2 (55:17):
I could just keep going I got into it, but um see,
see how that show jumps theshark.

Speaker 1 (55:24):
But here's the thing.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
They made a drastic mistake with me.
They killed off a maincharacter and I read the comic
book, so that's what makes iteven worse.
Um, so you were invested inthat kind of and I'm not a comic
book reader, um, jerry is but Iwas like, if I'm paying for
this crap, I might as well startreading this you know, but they
killed off a main character.

(55:46):
They killed off actually twomain characters.
That the first hoe, I didn'tmind, I didn't mind, but that
second one I was like, wait,hold on.

Speaker 1 (55:56):
Why.

Speaker 2 (55:57):
Yeah, it didn't make sense, and so I never watched it
after that.

Speaker 1 (56:01):
See Breaking Bad.
Breaking Bad was a good show Didthat perfectly, and then you
just see Jesse's soul Like, oh,it's so good, I like that.
I watched Dexter but evendexter jumped the shark at a
point like after the trinitykiller, and then the girl the

(56:23):
other girl gets injured.
Because I think the familydynamic in the first seasons of
dexter is what made it so likeantithesis, where I like, really
liked, like that he had to bethis.
But when that went away and hewas allowed to go buck wild, I
never watched it after that hewas allowed to go buck wild like

(56:45):
.
I didn't like that.
There wasn't any depth to thecharacter anymore.
That's what I do like about theshows now.
They're not like, they don'thave to put out another season
if they don't want to and youcan write shows like that.
I think Atlanta did that thebest.

Speaker 2 (57:03):
Yeah, Atlanta was good.

Speaker 1 (57:05):
Atlanta's still my favorite show, probably Breaking
Bad.
Atlanta, well, atlanta,breaking Bad.
I don't know a third I like alot.
Oh, it's Always Sunny inPhiladelphia.
See that show you can just puton.

Speaker 2 (57:17):
I like that show, but I would have not, naturally,
watched it on my own.
I don't really gravitatetowards comedic shows.
I gravitate toward violent,semi-realistic shows.

Speaker 1 (57:32):
I like comedic.
It makes my brain turn off.
I can't watch Bachelor.
I like comedic.
It makes my brain turn off.
I can't watch Bachelor.
I can't watch.
It's just so scripted to me.
And the people are written sodumb and so objectified-y that I
just hate it.
I can't watch it.

Speaker 2 (57:50):
The first season of Bachelor was probably the most
authentic and maybe because wewere getting into that reality
TV where reality TV literallyprobably was reality TV.

Speaker 1 (58:01):
I do like Survivor.

Speaker 2 (58:03):
Survivor is still good Survivor.
I mean, you really can't.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
They got a little too woke, but now they're leaning
into it the right way and that'sfine.

Speaker 2 (58:11):
But the first season of Bachelor.
I think it was the only season.
After that it got crazy.

Speaker 1 (58:18):
I think we need to bring back Flavor of Love, but
with Soulja Boy.
No Soulja.

Speaker 2 (58:24):
Love.

Speaker 1 (58:25):
Soulja Faux Love.
That would be an idea he woulddo right now Soulja Faux Love
Instead of Flavor Faux Love.

Speaker 2 (58:35):
You need to take care of baby mama and just stop
playing.

Speaker 1 (58:38):
He's not Nick Cannon.

Speaker 2 (58:41):
Flavor for Flaves.
Nick Cannon takes care of hiskids.

Speaker 1 (58:43):
Chain on Flavor for Love or whatever.
That huge clock.
He was so funny.

Speaker 2 (58:51):
With his turtle looking self.

Speaker 1 (58:54):
Baby yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:59):
I'm just like like how these beautiful women even
want to place their mouth on aturtle like they want money.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
Turtles are green, money is green, green, green
green ancient turtle andchristmas trees are green and,
uh, we're gearing up for thisholiday season and getting
through the holiday season.
I hope everybody's gettingthrough it just peachily and
greatly and super, superindipidously.

Speaker 2 (59:26):
My 20-year-old niece is coming back to Tennessee.
I'm so excited.

Speaker 1 (59:31):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (59:32):
Yes, my little duck duck.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
You got anything planned?

Speaker 2 (59:37):
No, just pick her little butt up from the airport.
I mean we're going to have.
So of course, christmas isgoing to be all out this year,
especially with the food andstuff, and then we have actually
a family photo shoot in January, getting her registered for
school.
Yeah, I don't know what else wehave planned.

(59:59):
She wants to go to Dollywood.
We'll have to see.

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
Dollywood's so fun.

Speaker 2 (01:00:03):
Because the four-year-old will turn five.
She's having a big birthday.

Speaker 1 (01:00:07):
Dollywood is.

Speaker 2 (01:00:09):
I love.

Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
Dollywood.
It's the best place to peoplewatch.

Speaker 2 (01:00:12):
It is.

Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
And it's just fun and if you go at the Christmas
lights and East Tennessee isjust beautiful to be in.
I love.

Speaker 2 (01:00:21):
East Tennessee, that's just great If I had to
not live in Middle.
Tennessee.
I mean, I lived there for fiveyears.
It's my jam.

Speaker 1 (01:00:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:00:31):
My dream home actually is in East Tennessee.

Speaker 1 (01:00:35):
My dream home actually is in East Tennessee.
My dream home for the fall is acabin in Gatlinburg, summer
like a place on the beach andwinter like a ranch in Wyoming.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
Nice.
So, you get all of them.
In Wyoming Nice.

Speaker 1 (01:00:53):
So you get all of them and like the best like peak
season of place ratio.

Speaker 2 (01:01:07):
Yeah, I think Right, yes, no, I got you, I got you, I
knew where you were going.
I was like okay, okay.

Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
I got to just throw it and like see how many it's
like tacks.
I feel many it's like tacks.
I feel like my brain is liketacks.

Speaker 2 (01:01:18):
I throw everything up as many as you can pick up.
I pick up all the pebbles, butyes, no.
So super excited about that.
I'm really excited because it'sgoing to be a Not Well
technically yeah, moretraditional.

(01:01:38):
It is the cooking part of whatmy family does, because we love
to cook during the holidays, butwe're adding Jerry's Hispanic
culture, so we are doing a veryvery, very Hispanic holiday.

Speaker 1 (01:01:55):
So it's going to be exciting, such good food.

Speaker 2 (01:02:02):
And the little babies .
They are going to get someMexicano, so they're super
excited.
We're making tamales.

Speaker 1 (01:02:07):
Oof.

Speaker 2 (01:02:08):
Chicken, beef and pork.
Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
That's like the tacos we had.

Speaker 2 (01:02:13):
Mm-hmm.
So we are doing that, we'redoing our Mexican Punch.
The kid, the boy, the boy.

Speaker 1 (01:02:27):
He did ask for why did Kendrick?

Speaker 2 (01:02:29):
come up.

Speaker 1 (01:02:30):
The boy.
Where's the man?
Because I ain't seen him yet.
Can I bleed him Bet?

Speaker 2 (01:02:37):
He did ask for some dressing, because I made
dressing last year when we hadour first Christmas.

Speaker 1 (01:02:43):
Oh, like Thanksgiving dressing, so good.

Speaker 2 (01:02:45):
But here's the thing it's a lot of work, is it?
It's a lot of work, that's thestuffing right.

Speaker 1 (01:02:50):
Dressing is the stuffing, no, or dressing is the
cranberry thing.

Speaker 2 (01:02:56):
I or dressing is the cranberry thing.
I mean, you can use cranberryfor either one, but stuffing
normally goes inside.
It's more like a um, like astovetop kind of consistency
like a stovetop stuffing yeah,that's stuffing.

Speaker 1 (01:03:05):
Dressing is like cornbread you see, why do we
gotta classify, why we gotta,why we gotta segregate?

Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
because, because white folks do stuffing, black
folks use dressing.

Speaker 1 (01:03:19):
Okay, so if I have, stuffing Is stuffing dressing
and dressing stuffing is my mainquestion.

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
No, no, no.

Speaker 1 (01:03:28):
Like ingredients-wise , like down to the minute detail
of it being in a turkey or in apan.

Speaker 2 (01:03:35):
No, what's the ingredients?
Different stuffing is more oflike a bread kind of consistency
, which is seasonings.
There's no extra to it okay,I'm down with.

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
Then.
I've had dressing my whole life.

Speaker 2 (01:03:56):
No, you had stuffing.
No, I didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:04:00):
So what did you have?
I had.

Speaker 2 (01:04:02):
Did your dressing have like some celery some
cornbread, some carrots maybesome onions, not carrots.
Maybe some people put turkey orgizzards in it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
It was in a pan.

Speaker 2 (01:04:14):
It don't matter if it's in a pan or it don't matter
if it's in a pan or it don'tmatter.
It's the consistency.

Speaker 1 (01:04:18):
I love how I fell back on my own logic.

Speaker 2 (01:04:22):
I mean all of it's in a pan at some point, whether
it's up a turkey's cup or not,my own logistic fallacy got me
out of this conversation.
You know what I'm going to haveto Now.
I'm going to have to now, I'mprobably going to have to just
make both, just to give you thetwo different.
Okay, like this is stuffing.

Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
Just make one bowl, one bowl of each.

Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
You're going to be like what?
I mean.
They're both good, but peopleof color normally do a dressing.

Speaker 1 (01:04:55):
Okay, and then peach.

Speaker 2 (01:04:55):
People normally do a stuffing.

Speaker 1 (01:04:57):
Peach.

Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
Yeah, y'all peach, y'all ain't white.

Speaker 1 (01:05:00):
Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 2 (01:05:01):
And we're all kinds of different shades.

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
We're all from the same.

Speaker 2 (01:05:06):
Eve or this bird, yeah, adam.

Speaker 1 (01:05:08):
Or Eve or this bird is the name of the episode.

Speaker 2 (01:05:11):
That bird is still having babies.

Speaker 1 (01:05:12):
We all from Eve or this bird.
I'm telling you she's havingbabies every year.
That was a crazy news fact.
Rocky was cool.

Speaker 2 (01:05:20):
That one was a cool one.

Speaker 1 (01:05:22):
Like Philadelphia needs something.
I've thought about it.
We do have a lot of stuff LikeCheekwood.
We have like we could go outand do whatever we wanted
Philadelphia.
All you got is like turn, turnthe furnace on hope you don't
freeze and smoke cigarettes.

Speaker 2 (01:05:39):
Oh lord, I'm sure there's more to it.
I don't know ducky has beenliving there for what five, six
years, so she can probably tellme yeah, she would.

Speaker 1 (01:05:47):
She would probably be like I'm completely wrong, I'm
probably, I'm not, I don't eventhink I'm not completely right I
know I'm completely wrong sheprobably.

Speaker 2 (01:05:56):
she probably don't even care what's not completely
right.
I know I'm completely wrong.
She probably don't even carewhat's in Philadelphia, as long
as she has her tattoo artist,that's all she cares about.

Speaker 1 (01:06:01):
Is that it?

Speaker 2 (01:06:02):
Yeah, that's all she's worried about.
She's like do you know a goodtattoo artist Girl?
I need your butt to get inschool.
I don't give a damn about yourtattoo.
Don't let me tell her, listen.
She said.
I said where does all yourmoney go?
And she's like on my body andI'm like what?
And that's when she startedshowing me her tattoos.
And it's funny because she waslike me, like we look just like,

(01:06:24):
and everything, and I was like,wait, hold on what where did
this come?
from her tattoos, her piercing.
I was like oh, oh, wow.
I says cover it up.
You look like me.
Now who are you?
I'm like oh, okay that's whereyour money goes I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:06:44):
I think every tattoo recently I've gotten, I tell my
dad I think like my backespecially, I'd be like say
goodbye to my back, because thelast time you'll see it looking
like this and he's like bye backand I just walk out.
I think he's accepted it.
I mean, I think you got to yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:07:04):
You kind of have to Can you imagine disowning your
family or your friend becausethey got a tattoo?

Speaker 1 (01:07:10):
That's kind of awkward.
I know people that, like theirparents, were that freaking
crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:07:15):
That's awkward.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
And I talk to them and like if I'm at work and
they're telling stories, I'msitting there.
I'm like how did you not justwalk out Like I don't know and
like why do you still?
Listen to them.

Speaker 2 (01:07:40):
Why do you still listen to anything like any
opinion?
There is a lot of, as we knowfrom my situation, worse things
that can you should disown aperson for exactly and a tattoo
is not it.
And and who they sleep with isdefinitely not it you're right,
I agree with you.
I'm accepting like when youabandon AKA your children.
If you listening out there,then I diss on your ass.
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (01:07:59):
