We get on the road early obviously, so we don't

(00:20):
really hit traffic. Yeah, if we do it traffic, something
went wrong usual pace. This new study found traffic jams
are making us fatter apparently. Oh so the Journal of
Urban Economics, which we've been getting the actually sent journals
last year.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
Which is a very nice you said this weekend.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Yeah I am, they say. I found the heavy traffic
makes us gain weight. It all comes down to meal choices.
So they looked at three years worth of traffic and
GPS data. They found heavy traffic made people more likely
to want to eat fast food, especially for dinner. Especially.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
I've only done this one time I can think of,
but I was stuck in traffic when I was driving
back from visiting a friend once and I just got
off to an exit and went to like boat angles, yeah,
to get food because I was like sick of sitting there. Yeah,
I would that I can see that happening.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Well, yeah, they're kind of staying like it's like, Okay,
I've been stuck in traffic. I'm gonna get home later
than I thigh would do I really want to cook now.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Especially if you also have to go to the bathroom
because you have to gill stop like a wall wall
or something.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Yeah, do I want to cook and clean?

Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah, I'm just back my car staring at the car
part of me.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
And then to that point too, do I want to
stop at the grocery store to get stuff I need
to make dinner? Yeah? I also think for me, I
always look for a sign to order, order a delivery,
and it can be anything. I could just I could
have a hiccup, Like there's a hiccup, that's my body
saying it's time to.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Get like when I'm in traffic though, so I get home,
it's just waiting for me allegedly.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Allegedly, Yes, you'll have the person in the car with
you order for you. Oh yeah, yeah, Well I just
want to make sure it's on the same page. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Now my uber ets will send unifications throughout the day
and it is offensive. Is it is AM like, hey Johnson,
sure you're like out? Okay? One time, dude, so often
one time? Wait where are you?

Speaker 2 (02:05):
I literally told John the other day. I was like whenever
I opened Uber now it's like do you want to
go to hide?
