Speaker 1 (00:00):
Some say Gen Z people cannot actually do some of
this stuff. I'm not Gen Z. I can't do some
of this stuff, so I'm blaming no one. 73% of
Americans say they could cook rice. That's a lot. How
about changing a baby's diaper? No. I could. Can you

(00:21):
sew a button on without going to chat or Google? Yes.
I cannot. I cannot. I'm with Ronnie on that. Can
you change a tire, Bonnie? Yes. Oh, sorry. Oh, yeah.
I cannot. So, Ruby, you can change a tire. Oh, yeah.
My dad taught me. And how to change my oil, too.
I can put chains on a car, though, on the
tires for the car if you're going to Big Bear.

(00:42):
You can do that. I'm not your guy for that.
You can't put the chains? Oh, no. I can't do
any of these things. Do you not use a fire extinguisher? No.
I've never had to. But I feel like you just
see it on TV, right? They pull the thing and then...
I'm hoping. Do you know how to use a plunger

(01:02):
in your toilet? Yes. Gosh, I do. I can do
that too. Calculate tip in your head? I can do that.
Do you know how to put terracotta roofing on a house? No. No.
I don't either. What about the fitted sheet? I just...
The fitted sheet's a pain, but I can get there. Yeah,
I can do that. Oh my gosh, really? One side in.

(01:22):
It's a whole ball. It's just like a ball. You
tuck it in to each side. No, that's what they say.
Oh my gosh, I'll teach you. Sissy's going to teach
you about the bedding. Great. You're on air with Orion Seacrest.
