Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
And Happy Wednesday, friends. Welcome to the Thought Shower. Intern
John is my name. We are less than a week
away from the most wonderful day of the year, my birthday.
You know it comes every year around this time, and yeah,
here we are. How exciting for me? I'm sure exciting

(00:21):
for you as well. Okaddy, But tomorrow actually my parents'
wedding anniversary, assuming they make it. You know, it's hard
to tell these days. You hope they can pull through.
I believe they'll be thirty seven years. Very exciting. Congrasp
to them. It's funny because they both tell the story
of how they started dating very differently. If you were

(00:45):
to ask my dad, he plotted his time and there
was like an assassin, you know, just waiting for the
perfect opportunity to swoop in for the kill. If you
ask my mom, she wore him down over like six years.
Very different ideas of what happened, but it worked out here.

(01:06):
I am what can I say? Uh? I think Sauce's
parents wedding anniversary was this past weekend, but they had
forty years. Very exciting for them as well. I get
excited for my birthday. It was interesting. My birthday is
interesting because I don't like I like the idea of

(01:28):
getting gifts. I don't necessarily like getting gifts. I don't
know why, but like I would feel bad if I
didn't get any, but I don't like getting them, if
that makes sense. Like one of our friends, a Yoda
who works in promotions, got me what might be so
far the coolest birthday gift of the year, and she's like,
I got you something for your birthday. I'm like, that

(01:49):
is one of the worst things you tell me, and
I don't. I don't know why because I love giving gifts.
But she got me this really cool, like nineties themed
shirt with like five pitches and chewy on it is
chewing all capital letters. It's on my Instagram at internshin Radio.
Like that to me is dope. That to me was
very cool like that to be like, I'll wear that forever.

(02:09):
But I was gonna say the I'm the reason I'm
kind of I don't know excite is the right word
about my birthday. I think that I'm fairly low maintenance
when it comes to the actual like celebration. And I
used to like, I feel bad when I'm in a
relationship and it's my birthday because the person I'm with

(02:30):
tends to want to do things like do something big
and grand, which I'm very appreciative of. That's not the issue.
I just like, don't think it's necessary. You mean, I
also don't like when somebody pays for me at dinner.
I think I got that from my dad. Don't like
that at all. So like I would hate doing like
the birthday dinners with somebody who's dating because I don't

(02:53):
like them pain. That's a me thing, it's not them thing.
This is a long way of saying like I'm one
of those people where if we were hanging out, like,
oh my gosh, John, what do you want to do
for your birthday? And I told this to an ex
ex girlfriend, She's like, I just I was like, I
just want to have pizza and Chinese food in play Xbox.
And she looked at me confused. It's like, hey, there's

(03:13):
no hidden meaning here, there's no look deeper. I literally
just want Chinese food, pizza, and the play Xbox. That
is my idea of like the perfect birthday. Yeah, I
mean it's I guess from my dad's side. I'm a
little bit excited this year because I don't feel like
somebody has to stress out over my birthday. If that

(03:36):
makes sense. Hopefully it does, And it's not meant to
sound like contrived or like I don't know I was
telling people stressing about me. Yeah, this has kind of
always been the vibe. And then yeah, with my birthday
being next week, Chewie's half birthday coming up the fourteenth,
now I feel like we gotta celebrate that, not to
be morbid. My man's gonna be fifteen and a half.

(03:58):
I feel like each one of the Miles Stones. Now
we gotta celebrate dude. Every now and then I get
on dead Dog TikTok and it's the worst. I don't
know what about it. If my phone's listening to me,
Why do you think I want to be on dead
Dog TikTok? I don't. That's not the vibe. We want
to be on Happy Dog TikTok. You know, dogs playing games,

(04:21):
dogs being silly, dogs having fun. That's the vibe we want.
Speaking of fun and silly, there's a huge Bogo sale
on right now for the comedy show in Baltimore, and
this is huge. So August seventeenth, Ram said is a
buy one, get one free sale. So if you want
to go to the show. You buy one ticket, you
get one for free, which means you and a friend

(04:44):
split skis can do you a date night to a

see you at these shows. It's gonna be a lot
of fun. August seventeenth, Ram said live my intern John's
from Scratch show. The Bogo sale is not gonna last long.
It's I think for the next week. So buy a ticket,
get one for free. This is the finale, and I'm

(05:06):
being quite honest, this is gonna be the last one
for a while, and I don't know when that day
comes again. I said this at the end of the
last tour that I didn't know what I was going
to see you again. I meant it, you know, had
I not gone through a breakup beginning this year, I
think it's very safe to say there would not have
been a comedy tour. I guarantee you there wouldn't have

(05:29):
been because I think the other story had been told,
I had done everything I set out to do, and
that would have been it, you know what I mean,
That would have been it. But obviously things happen, breakups happened.
Had to find a way to get through it. This
is the way we did it so August seventeenth, Ram
said it's a buy one, get one free sale. Internshioncomedy

(05:51):
dot com benefiting the Fisherhouse Foundation. Cannot wait to see there.
I want to get to this for your Wednesday. According
to researchers, this is why a man's beard style reveals
it by his personality. Now I'm interested in this because
usually I try to keep it as stubble in a
little behind the scenes, like a razor for dudes, has
like different millimeter clips he can put on to make

(06:12):
it certain lengths. I try keep mine of five. Unfortunately,
I've lost the five millimeter clip, don't know where it
is lost in last week, so now I only have
a seven of three. Seven doesn't really do much. I
feel like three makes it two short. So I'm in
that kind of like a weird phase, if you will.
The full beard. If a man's got a full beard,

(06:33):
he's likely confident and self assured. He's a natural leader,
wisling the fray, take charge when needed. He appreciates the
simple things in life and values authenticity. He might be
a bit of an old soul with a love for tradition,
and a penchant for wisdom beyond his years. Yet beneath
that rugged exterior there could be a soft heart that
values deep, meanful relationships. I wouldn't say it probably depends

(06:56):
on the beard, because I think there's guys that have
a long beard and it looks like they've just been
homeless in the woods for the last fifty years. Then
there's like the hipster beards, where it looks well manicured
while taken care of two different vibes completely the stubble.
I think I tend to lean more that way. A
man with stubble often embodies the perfect blend of casual

(07:17):
and calculated. He's flexible, adaptable, knows how balance, work and play,
might be a bit of a charmer, using his laid
back vibe and boyish charming win overhearts. I think that's me.
Also long beards, Like again, you really do have to
like get beard oil or something because it gy gets itchy.
Dude and ladies, I ain't realize you can get staff

(07:41):
infections from a guy's beard. Huh. Could you imagine? Like
what the worst way gets staffed from a guy's beard?
If he has a go tee, they say go tea
wearing a man is creative and individualistic. Makes sense. He's
not afraid of standoff from the crowd and expresses you
unique perspective. He might love engaging intellectual conversation and sharing

(08:04):
his ideas and challenging conventional thinking. That guy sounds like
a pain in the ass. Canna be completely honest. That
guy sounds like we're just hanging out watching like I
don't even know an easy movie to watch, and he's
gonna ask the deep philosophical question that ruins the mood.
If I'm just being honest. The mustache, it's a tough

(08:26):
one man, tough one they sam man who choose the
mustache over a beer might be a bit of a trendsetter.
He values style, isn't afraid of experiment with his look.
He's sociable, outgoing, in a bit of a charmer as well,
enjoying the finer things in life. Again, I would say
with the mustache kind of the same lines of the goatee,

(08:47):
you know, can be a lot, can be a lot,
especially if it's a like a really good mustache, like
not like a fireman one. Those are good too, but
the one, like the curly bar mustache, that's a lot
of time. That to me means you can't be upset.
People want to talk about your mustache, you know, clean shaven.

(09:09):
If a man prefers to keep his face clean shaven,
he's likely practical and efficient. He values simplicity and straightforwardness.
I'll say this, I went to an all boys military
high school. We had to shave every single day, and
the second I graduate, I stopped doing it because it
destroyed my skin. Now, granted I wasn't doing proper skincare.

(09:29):
Also it was Minnesota winters, So like that combination like
destroyed my skin. So the clean shaven thing I couldn't
do it. I also think it takes too much time. Yeah,
I thought about doing it on vacation, but like, nah,
last one's the beard sash, so it's like you have
the full mustache, but he also got the five o'clock shadow.

(09:50):
A man's boring a beard sash. It's a combination of
mustache and a little stubble. Likely adventurous and fun loving.
He likes to break the mold off and finding conventional
norms too restrictive. I also think he had enough energy
to do the mustache, but maybe not enough to shave
the beard every day. Kind of that vibe. Look. I
hope you have a great weekend. If you give a
