Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, look who's on the kiss cam? Oh wait, that's us.
It's one more thing.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
I'm strong and getty.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
One more thing.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
When Caitlyn Clark retires from the w NBA, she's going
to work at a waffle house so she can continue
doing what she loves most, fistfighting black women.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
A Shane Gillis joke from the SP's Last Night that Wow, Wow,
Shane Gillis is one funny freaking dude.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
That is a funny, edgy joke.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
So my tease of look who's in on the kiss cam?
I only kind of know the story, So we bring
in executive producer Mike Hanton to explain what we're what
is going on here?
Speaker 3 (00:58):
That's about as much as you need to know. Smart
and the singer of Coldplay at a concert, employing the
kiss cam and capturing a loving moment between a man
and a woman. I want to play the clip and
then we could backsell it.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
I guess yeah. Oh look at these people, all right,
come on, king, what either that having an effan or
they're just very shot.
Speaker 3 (01:26):
So they put the kiss cam on him and what happened?
They dive did a dive bomb. Both of them tried
to escape the lens of the camera. Well, the man
just just ducked down immediately, and the woman turned her
back and she stood there for a while.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
But it does.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Appear that they in fact were not a married couple,
and that the ceo, I guess it's some I don't
know what company he's in charge of, but that's uh.
According to Twitter, that's the HR chief at the company
that he runs.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
So the CEO of a company is with the HR
girl at a concert with her at Chris Barton puts
him on the kiss can say well, I don't know,
they didn't want to be anthing, must be having an
affair or something. It turns out that's exactly what was happening.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
And it would also appear that that moment proves that
the HR chick has not gone through her latest installment
of training.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
And the only reason you would do that is because
you didn't do the training, or.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Or he was using his imbalance of power, right man
splaining misogyny paternal list.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Wow, I mean, there's all kinds of reasons. That's a
bad idea. If one or both of you is married,
that you shouldn't be doing that anyway. But if you
think getting involved with the hr person who knows every
single lever to bowl in terms of ruining your life.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Well, that's easy to say unless she's pulling your lever.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Ah Michael gets it. Okay, thank you for that. Hanswer
came across this the other day. I kind of liked
the tone of it. It was scientists help being you
get back to sleep or get to sleep, saying we
(03:14):
know you're drinking coffee later than you should in the day.
We know you're looking at your phone, so let's just
skip past that. Now what do you do? Which is
not a bad I wish more science looked at things
that way from the more realistic standpoint instead of just
laying out the don't drink any caffeine after ten am,
don't look you from Okay, that's great, it'd be great
(03:34):
if I didn't, but I did. So now what what
you got for me? What do you got for me?
And now I get to sleep or or get back
to sleep. And there's just some of your recommendations they
had here. A lot of them you've heard before, some
of them I hadn't, Like, I don't know if I'd
ever done this before. I think my mom might have
told me about this when I was a kid. Tens
your toes, flex them for five seconds, then release m
(03:57):
This is known as progressive muscle relaxation. Read his tension
and calms the sympathetic nervous system.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Yeah, I learned about that in college.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Tense your toes. I'm not exactly sure. I know what
tensing my toes means.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Well, you work through every muscle system you can. Strict
the muscle, then relaxing.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Okay, has that ever worked for you?
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I feel like I did this years ago and it
didn't give me a benefit from it. So this one
is new to me. And somebody I know told me
that they always go to a TV show or movie
that they've seen a million times when they can't get
to say the scientists actually say, that's a good idea.
Watch a TV show you've seen many times before, an
(04:36):
old episode of the Office or Frasier or whatever movie
you like. The idea is to find something both comforting
and familiar enough that you doze off without getting invested
in any way.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
So, if I'm watching something new, the scientists think, I
want to know how it turns out enough that it
might keep me awake, Whereas if I know what's gonna happen.
I'll fall asleep. Well maybe that's just.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
The difference between taking in new information and well Warren
information too.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Can you watch reruns very very rarely? Well, I don't watch.
I don't watch pre runs. I don't watch in the
first place at this point in my life. But I
used to watch lots of reruns. Oh, this is a
great episode of Seinfeld or Mash or whatever I was watching,
or movies. I can watch movies for many times. My
(05:25):
dad was always a hardcore like if they were running
a rerun, we've seen this before, Like get up and
walk out of the room, like he can't even imagine.
Why would you spend your time watching the show you've seen?
And I knew somebody else like that. I've only known
two people in my life that were hardcore that way,
which is no, I've already seen this.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Yeah, and I know another guy who's a very successful guy,
works hard smart, that's his thing. He watches old shows
a lot when he's working out, for instance, huh, some
sort of like doing treadmill or elliptical or whatever. He
likes to watch the old Seinfeld episodes.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
So it's like comport food a term that I hate.
But it's just something easy.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
And he's a great guy and a good friend, but
he's always hitting me with you. Remember that episode when
I mean because somebody, You'll mention I don't know a
ham sandwich and he's like you remember that episode a
Seinfeld where Jerry had the ham sandwich and Cramer and
I'll be no, no, I don't.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Here's a dumb one I'd never heard of. Read a
nutrition label. It sounds silly, but the label has enough
information to occupy your mind, but is boring enough to
coax you to sleep. This sounds like complete bs to me,
but it's supposedly from scientists.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Well, even better, double up, have this same nutrition label
next to your bed that you read over and over again.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Oh. I love this nutrition label. It's got the flex.
I can't wait till I get to the flex.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Oh this seven grain bread nutrition label. Oh, it's an
old favorite. Let's get started, carbs fourteen grams.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Try cognitive shuffling. Think of a random word, maybe use
bedtime for instance. You're random word, and then think of
as many words as possible that start with B. When
you run out of that, you think as many words
as possible, as you can start with E. I think
you see where I'm going here, and you do that
(07:12):
with each of the letters. The idea is that the
random words will help you stop your brain from cycling
through anxieties we're trying to problem solve late at night,
because it usually is your mind is just like my
mind's on fire with some topic.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Yes, or a variety of them. That's I'll usually have
like three fighting for supremacy, and one is usually a song,
and I'll have that song go through my head till
I start worrying about my kid, and then I'll start
worrying about some other thing, and then the song will
come back in and it's just yeay with me, it's
half nuts with me.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
It's usually did I bury him deep enough? Or is
a random stray dog gonna dig him up?
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Right? Did I use enough bleach? Oh? Mean? All right,
here's one that I've gone with that really works for me.
If I can describe this properly, and you're gonna think
I'm nuts, but you already think that. I picture a
specific point physically. It can be like a foot in front.
(08:20):
I've got my eyes closed and I'm trying to go
to sleep. It's a foot in front of my face
in space. Picturing How do I express this picturing a
specific point in space? And I don't know how I
get started on doing this, but.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
I could do that. I don't even know. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
If your eyes, close your eyes and picture just the
the point in space, like it's almost a geolocation of
a foot in front of your face, and just be
aware of that space. That's that place.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
How did you come with this idea?
Speaker 2 (08:59):
I have no idea. I don't remember. But and it's
weird how well it works for me because it's entirely spatial.
It shuts off the verbal part of my brain, and
it shuts off the anxiety part of my brain because
I've got to like keep that spot in my mind.
It's here's, here's how I describe it. It's like I'm
(09:21):
trying to levitate an object and keep it in precisely
that spot. I know it sounds nuts.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
I've never heard that before, and I wish.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
I knew how. I I don't remember how I am.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
You need a book, you need a YouTube channel, you
need a ted talk.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Sounds like a pain in the ass.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Picture a familiar place, Imagine a place you know, well,
in as much detail as possible. Maybe it's your childhood home,
a vacation spot, your favorite park. Take yourself on a
mental tour with as much detailed as you possibly can.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
That is interesting. That is a similar I'll bet a
and more part of your brain lights up when you
do that to what I was just describing. Make it
spatial visual as opposed to you know whatever verbal slash
worry occupy your brain doing that.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
I did that for a while after my wife and
I honeymoon, however, many years ago, that was many years ago,
had this house on the ocean that erendered and a
big giant window looking out over the ocean, and I
spent a lot of time sitting there, and for a
long time I could take my beltself back to that
(10:35):
spot and picture that like it was just as real
as could be, with quite a bit of detail in
my mind in my picture. But eventually enough time went by,
I lost it. But for a while it was very
very calming for.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Me to do that, right, you could evoke the emotional
state you're in. Yeah, well, that's why everybody wants to
buy real estate wherever they go on vacation, including me.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Oh yeah, brain. When I was in Key West, absolutely
had flyers out and explaining to my kids how I'm
going to buy a house here and you can come
visit me.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Hey, honey, let's just stop and look at this real
estate agent's window. They got some listenings here. I want
to check out. Because because you think if you transport
your current life and lifestyle to that location, you will
have the same emotional as you do on vacation. Yeah,
that's why.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Yeah, now I feel like an idiot.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Well, and it could be that where you are is
very beautiful and you would be happier there.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
I think I would happen. I think I would be happier.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
I'm such a sucker for that, because I'm just I'm
feeling footloose and fancy free, care free, having a big time.
I'm confident, I'm looking for it. I'm feeling positive, and
I'm thinking, we got to look into a house here, honey.
Let's take what is a square footage.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
I was walking down du Vall Street in Key West
after my kids went to bed with a cigar. I
bought at a cigar shop, a Cuban cigar, and about
as happy as I've ever been in my life. Yeah,
that's probably making me think, as you buy a house here,
i'd feel like this all the time.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
Yeah, well, I'm not completely pooh poohing the notion. It's
just be aware of that. You've got to picture the
life you would be living, not on vacation in that place.
Otherwise you're kidding yourself.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Some of these are dumb. Place a cold wash cloth
on your forehead. I don't know. Maybe that works for
count backward from one hundred. That's like the oldest idea
in the world. Maybe that works for you. Inhale for
four seconds, hold for four, exhale slowly for eight. I've
heard a lot of these kind of sounds white noise.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah, that kids about the concentration, same idea. You're concentrating
on something completely benign and not what's running through your brain.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
I haven't tried this. Drink ice cold water a few steps,
A few SIPs can help lower your overall body temperature,
mimicking its natural decline before sleep. I should try that
ice cold water.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Wait a minute, I'll give that a shot. And as
an older fella, I may have to, you know, have
a late night visit to the Johnny.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
But I've got to do that anyway, sit by a
fan like of our show. They're just talking about you.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Remember that time you were talking about the president.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
I don't know if I can fall asleep with you
sitting here.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Have you been vetted in some way?
Speaker 1 (13:23):
I mean, are you playing as soon as I fall asleep,
you are going to leave right and then lock the doors?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Or am I even wake up pantless? Oh? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:31):
And a tubful of ice with tubes in my side.
My kidney's going right right.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Well, that topful ice will lower your body temperatures on
you'll drift right off.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
All comes together, Well, I guess that's it.
