Kat won a household competition and the prize is incredible. Amy is feeling refreshed and kicks things off with a satire way to start any meeting! They also share what they’re watching/reading…Amy finally finished Theo of Golden and she gives it 5 stars…Kat is going to borrow her book now that she’s done with it! Did sororities at the University of Alabama put pledges on a dryer and circle their fat when it would jiggle?? Kat believed this rumor, which is why she ended up going to a different college. Please let us know if you can confirm this disturbing practice is true! Also, Amy shares signs of dyslexia that show up in people’s speech and Kat tells us what "seagulling" means in dating, why people do it, and they realize in real time that this was done to Amy by a guy.

Speaker 1 (00:03):
All right, break it down.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
If you ever have feelings that you just fonts maybe
a cat got your cover and locking. No, brother, ladies
and felts, do you just follow Ann the spirit where
it's all the front and real stuff to the chill
stuff and the m but Swayne. Sometimes the best thing
you can do it just stop you feel things. This
(00:27):
is feeling things.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
With Amy and Cat. Happy Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Welcome to feeling things. I'm Amy, I'm Cat, and I
am feeling refreshed. Okay, So I got an or ring
and it's now my new identity.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
Wait, I saw you wearing that. It didn't even register
Is that new? Yeah? How new?
Speaker 3 (00:47):
At this point one, two, three, four days or so.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
So I've seen you wear very new. So you weren't Friday.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Maybe yeah, you probably just wasn't registering.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
So tell me about I tried this life.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Okay, Well, I'm feeling refreshed because I've never had anything
ever in my life that has ever tracked my sleep.
And I have received so far a good score, a
couple of good scores, and I already received an excellent score,
which apparently is rare, and it gives you a little
crown by your sleep score.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
If you do good. And I love a good celebratory notification.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
So even if your sleep isn't different, just knowing that
like it was good, it's like okay, then it's double good.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, okay, sort of back to the placebo effect we
talk about sometimes, like who knows if I'm actually really refreshed,
but I feel refreshed.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Is that why you got the ring? Just to track sleep? Yes?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I mean, I'll I suppose, oh, in my cycle, especially
now that I'm in my hormone replacement therapy, I just
want to be in the know of all the things.
So I'm sleeping with it and I'm tracking it and
I'm refreshed. What's your feeling of the day.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
Okay, I'll have to say this. I got I acted
like I got an or ring. I got the off
brand called the Ultra Human.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
You I've never heard of that.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
You can get a costco.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
It was less expensive, and they were saying that, oh,
you don't have to pay a subscription for it, so
all the features just come with it versus or I
have to pay a subscription. I got it to track
my cycle, and it always would die. You know, what's
the point if it's dying. So anyway, maybe i'll I
don't need to track my cycle now, but I learned
(02:31):
that I can't track my cycle.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
My cycle is untrackable.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
AnyWho, I'm feeling excited and I was trying to think
of a word for this. I guess celebratory because I
won a competition in my household and.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
The prize is really good, like an Easter game.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
No, so well, I wish like now, so every year Patrick,
I will do a competition for March Madness. He's in
like four other competitions, but then we have one together
that will fill out brackets and whoever wins gets a prize.
The first year it was like I think when we
(03:13):
were dating, so I was like, you have to take
me to a fancy restaurant. Then I think it was
like you have to whoever loses has to clean the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
The last two years.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
It's been whoever loses has to plan a debt a
full day for the person who won of like all
their favorite things.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
I think I talked about this when I had to
do it for Patrick last year.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Yes, I remember, yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
And I won, so he has some man a day
for me.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Okay, that's gonna be fabulous.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
And I'm excited about what it's going to be. And
also I'm just like, what does it feel like to lose?
Speaker 4 (03:44):
To me? I don't know anything about basketball. I like
her studies.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
It celebratory fits you're feeling, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Maybe what's I'm feeling? Glowedy like haha nana nebi boo.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
And my team that I put to win is in
the finals, so like I.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Could get that's crazy to predict who one and I
don't know anything about it.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
You could get a prize from that too.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
No, I didn't put my bracket in any.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Other Oh okay, last year, I got really.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Close to winning the bracket at my gym, but I
lost because of the last game. Isn't that crazy? All
these guys have their brackets and then it's like little
me at the top. Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
You show up at your gym, you played the bracket there?
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Yeah, they do every year. I'm not a member anymore
because we moved. But you can pay. I think it
was like.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
Just joined twenty dollars, twenty dollars or something, and then
you would win like eight hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
My pilates placed an Easter egg hunt thing where they
had these golden eggs hidden throughout the studio and I
found one of the golden eggs and I took it
and it was empty, so yeah, and so then they
were like, oh, it maybe was one that somebody got,
and then they set it down when they were putting
their shoes on or something.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
They should give you something.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Well, they did say.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
That, but I already felt awkward because I like, yeah,
I walked out of the bathroom and it was sitting
right there on the window still. So I was like, well,
I feel silly, but the egg is right there waiting
for me, and then the front desk is right there.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
So I just grabbed the egg and I was like
I just.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Found this and they were like ooh fine, and they
open it up and they go, oh, it's empty, and
I was like, oh, that's okay because I already felt
silly turning in the egg for the prize.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
And then they were like, well, we've got to.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Get you something you wouldn't get you and I was
like no, no, no, no, no, seriously, it's okay.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And then I just walked out because I was like,
what I felt weird.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I want to give you a hug.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
Why because I can imagine that feeling of like it's okay.
I know, I wasn't excited, like you get right.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Right, I found the golden egg.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
I found the golden egg, and then I was like, okay,
I'm not like you walk.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Out and like it wasn't that big of a deal.
Then you start crying.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I definitely didn't start crying, but I definitely just wanted
to get the heck out of there because I didn't
want to make it a thing to where they now
have to come up with an extra prize, because.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Well, what were the prizes like free, like a hair.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Of socks, like sticky socks, that would be legit.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I should give you socks.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
I mean, I'm not worried about it. I already walked out.
I was like, happyaster, I gotta gotta go, gotta go.
I can't even believe I grabbed the egg. I should
have just kept.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Walking because I was like, if I knew during class
and they announced it, I was like, well, if I
see an egg, I'm gonna leave it for somebody because
that will be fun for them. But then when I
walked to the bathroom and the egg was like staring
at me that, I was like, now, I guess like,
why wouldn't I can't walk past the egg.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
And then I went in so excited and then.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It was empty, and I was like, well, well, I
do have a fun thing that I saw since we're
at the start of the episode, that this could be
something you could use at the beginning of a meeting.
I mean, not really, but it's just a perspective to
like think about and maybe we start keeping in mind
at the beginning of an episode.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Okay, Okay, it was just a little it's.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Satire, okay, like someone had posted it on Instagram of like,
this is the perfect way to start a meeting. By
the way, before we begin, we're all gonna die and
none of this really matters. None of this is life
or death. We're not saving lives. It's not that deep.
So just a reminder before anyone gets too worked up
over something with no real significance. I wanted to set
(07:15):
that straight. Okay, let's get started. And then you know,
so I thought, okay, yeah, like we're here, we're doing
a podcast, we're having a good time.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
We're not saving lives here. Now.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
If you're on a medical team and you're having a meeting,
you are you cannot use that you are saving lives,
and I'm sure some meetings are very important and they
are significant. However, a lot of times we can get
worked up throughout the day at work about things that
just really don't matter, or we can treat things with
such urgency that don't really need the attention at that
(07:45):
exact moment.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
I had a.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Boss when I taught cycling who would get very worked
up about things, which like, is he owns a business,
he's probably stressed whatever, bla. And the manager would always
be like, we're literally just riding bike because it's not
that serious, which I don't know if she said would
say that to him, but she would say it like
if we were in the mix of all.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Of it, which was helpful.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
It's like, yeah, no, everything's fine, everything is figure outable.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Here, you know, open to creative solutions.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Yes, Okay, So we can't get worked up about this
because we're not doing brain surgery and we're all going
to die one day.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Right, cool, So we can talk about whatever you want.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Okay, Then I have something I want to talk about.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
What do you want to talk about?
Speaker 5 (08:29):
So this just made a really big difference and brought
me so much joy. So I just want to share it.
I had this itch.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
You know.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
I moved into my house in September. There's a lot
of things I want to do, but we're trying to
do them slowly so we're not spending a ton of
money at once. And I made the smallest change in
my house and I walk around being like, I could
sell this house for four million dollars. Now we could
not do that, not even clothes. I switched the light
(08:59):
switch covers.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
From white. Do you have the white ones?
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Well?
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Mine, I change them to brown.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Oh oh, I can't even see one.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Okay, so you know the walls are brown and it
blends in so like, but you have to eye had
to have an electrician coum because the little the little
switchy knob thing is also not white.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
It's not just the plate cover.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Oh you really did it big shoot.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Sorry, okay, okay, sorry, I will. Your dad could probably
change it, pod I would.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
I will say it does bother in a little bit
that Like the switches are still white, and you can
because I switch them to this like gold brass.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Yes, I have some that are brass with a white
I'm talking about my brow. Like if I did a
brown plate, I got a brown switch. But my some
of my brass plates my white, some of my unlacquered
brass plates, so that they'll create some patina.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
They are white, Okay, that makes you feel better mineor
lacquered brass.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
They're probably actually plastic. They're from Amazon. They're so cheap
and it makes the biggest difference. And now I just
love staring at my walls. Ah, I know, like you
get something new and you just want to look at it.
And I felt really adult because I just went around
with a screwdriver and did it myself. Just changed jobs,
like look at me, I'm an electrician.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
So if anybody needs an easy, inexpensive switch to liven
up their house light switch.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Cover, you know who has and Amazon may have these.
You know who has really cute light covers Anthropology.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Yes they're so expensive though, Well.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
You can type into Amazon Anthropology light switch and it'll
pull up some that they're not Anthropology brand, but they
have that whimsy vibe that can be a little more ornate. Well,
it's okay, you got some that made you feel happy.
I'm just saying for future you haven't. You're taking it slow,
so you didn't do every room right, for every light switch.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
I did almost every light switch except our bonus room
and the baby nursery.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
So maybe for the baby so you could give a
whimsy one.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
We're going for an antique vibe in the nursery. I
got a little I didn't get my sister in law's
giving me a crystal chandelier that she had an old house,
and I'm like trying to I'm trying to build around.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
The light fixture. You know, I don't like pink, and
I'm not very girly, so I don't want it to
be too girly, you know.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Yeah, I think it's good to like keep it neutral
because then also.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
I know that's gonna be neutral. I'm gonna do wallpaper.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
It's gonna be more feminine, but but.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Not too cutesy gurly. If that makes sense. Watch it
be like all pink. It might change my mind.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
That's okay anyway, light switch covers shout out. I wanted
to share that.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
So, speaking of life not taking life too seriously, I
have been enjoying way more diet coax than my usual
gas tank reward because what was it? A week ago?
I came across this Instagram video from my doctor that
it's pretty wise. I like a lot of her input
(12:03):
on some things. And I saw her talking about diet
coke and that you could have like eighteen a day,
which nobody's having eighteen a day. I guess some people
might be if they have a real addiction to it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
But it's so expensive, I know.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
But there are people that drink a lot of Mountain
Dew diet coke, Like, I'm sure they're out there if
they're having multiple cokes throughout the day. I eliminated diet
coke altogether. Then I started to bring it back. If
I fill my guests hang up on time, I get
my little diet coke reward. Well, this last week, I've
probably had more diet cokes than ever, but not no
(12:38):
more than one a day. But it's the amount, Like
we have all this fear around us all the time,
which I have contributed to the fear as well. I've
regurgitated it.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
I am sorry.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
I am doing my best as a human to get
by in this world. And you hear, okay, the ingredients
in this are bad. Was done on a rat, and
a rat is this tiny?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I am big.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Rat, big right, other people bigger like? So therefore you
can maybe have more than eighteen. You can have two, five,
maybe twenty five. I don't know, but it's it's all
about it's all relative to your size, your weight, what
(13:26):
you can handle. And while I'm not going to be
throwing them back all the time, I am going to
enjoy them, which brings me to last week. I was
at a track meet when I learned this, and if
you are a track parent, you know, and your child
is in more than one event, you can.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Be there for long time, long time, long time.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
So in between one of my son's races, I thought, Oh,
I think there's a McDonald's around the corner.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
I'm going to go get one.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
As I was driving to McDonald's, it occurred to me, oh,
Cat lives around the corner.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I wonder if she's home.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
So I go through the drive through and I get
a diet coke for us meet you, and I'm just
gonna drop it off real quick because I don't have
a lot of time.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
But again, I had just seen that study, so I thought.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Cheers, bottoms up, let's go. I'm going to take Cat
of diet coke. And then I texted and you were
still at works. You weren't home, so I took the
diet coke back to the race with me, which my
friend Claire was there, and it was so funny how
that worked out because she was sitting in the stands
and when I walked up holding two diet coke, she
was like, if that other diet coke is for me,
like you're my favorite person in the world, and I
(14:32):
was like.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
It is, and then I gave it to her that
I could offer that to her.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, And so I enjoyed that McDonald's diet coke. And
then I also got another diet coke when I went
to Chick fil A with Stevenson, and then I got
another can waiting for me.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
I just you feel freedom now.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, It's like, why it have to be so serious
about the diet coke people.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
Well, I got really scared because I saw a lot
of people saying that you can't drink them when you're pregnant,
And at first I thought it was because of the caffeine.
But there's only like, well, there's only fifty milligrams of
caffeine or whatever, and you can have two hundred, so
I could have technically have four of those.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Okay, Well I have got you a medium.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
I would have probably drink a lot, Okay, but I
so I stopped drinking them for a while, and I
was it was really sad.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
At first, I got the At first I got the
caffeine free cans at the grocery store.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
They're not the same. I okay, do you friendly they
taste the same?
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Well, maybe I was just telling myself that.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
But then I started seeing more people saying like, you're
not supposed to have it because of the ingredients of it.
And so then I was like, well, shoot, I can't
go nine months without. I don't drink a diet coke
every day, but like when I want one, I want one.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
And if I have like Chick fl A or something,
well Chick fil A, I like to get a lemonade.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
But anyway, if I have certain things, if I'm out
to eat a lot of times I'm like, I want
a die cooke. And so I asked my doctor, and
this is some information for all of us. Your doctor
knows best TikTok and Instagram sometimes knows what your doctor knows,
but also sometimes scares you.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Well, to be clear, the person I saw on Instagram
is a legit doctor doctor. She's the family practice.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Well, I think I was just seeing like other pregnant peoples. Okay,
I never saw a doctor say don't do this.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I'm also, she wasn't even talking about pregnancy, so I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Carry on.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
She didn't say anything about the caffeine. She said to
limit artificial sweeteners to one serving a day, So she said,
you can have one a day if you.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Want one, and you're likely not going to have one
a day.
Speaker 5 (16:37):
No, but can but can I save them up and
have a large at the end of the week.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
I mean, but I guess it's probably how much your
body can process at once in the.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
Answer that I want to Sorry, but but yeah, I mean,
what are they would they base it on with the
like a little pregnant rat?
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Yeah, I don't know. I think she also, I don't know,
because this is a new doctor for me. I think
think she airs more on the side of caution and
is more like natural and stuff. I had to get
a new doctor because I moved and my doctor moved
to California, so we both moved.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Did you know a rat's only pregnant for three weeks?
Speaker 4 (17:11):
What the heck?
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Yeah, they can get pregnant and deliver the baby in
a three week period.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
What.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Yeah, that's why there's so many rats. That's like, if
there's a rat.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
So they could have a lot of babies a lot
of the time, a lot.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah, that's why in where there's high volumes of people
and trash in places.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Like New York or DC.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Did you see the.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Lot of rats. Yes, that's how I know this. That's
how I know this. I talked about this on the
Bobby Bone Show. In DC.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
They're doing a pilot program where they're giving rats birth control.
How so, like they're setting bait and in the bait
is birth control for the rat and then so not
if they need rats as part of the ecosystem, so
they don't want to kill the rats. They just need
to control the amount they that they are producing. So
if some of the rats receive the birth control, then
(17:59):
that's less rats. Because they're monitoring them in a three
week period. And I was like a three week period
because that like first, I was like three weeks.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
They're they're the specific bait somewhere and then they're monitoring
the rat population.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Oh, the population.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Okay, it's a pilot program. I mean there's a lot
of people.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
They're spending like one hundred and fifty thousand dollars on
the pilot program to try to control the rats.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
I would be curious, would they just have to take
one pill because like you want to take birth control?
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I know.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
No, they do the same time everything to the bait,
so I don't know. They have to like take the
bait and eat it and then there.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
It's a pilot program, so they don't really know for
sure work if this is going to work.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
But yeah, they're giving the rats some BC, some birth control.
Huh yeah, some good.
Speaker 6 (18:42):
Times like yeah, rats.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah. Let's do a little bit of what are we watching?
What are we reading? Let's do a little bit of
what are we watching? What are we reading?
Speaker 5 (19:02):
I'm reading nothing, but my goal is to read read,
read with my eyes in my brain THEO of Golden
I just finished with my ears.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
My husband's wife.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Well, so you are reading, but last two of a
book is reading?
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Yes it is, but I want to I'm saving three
of a Golden because I want to read read it.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
But what that's doing is just making me never read it.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
But this book, I would give a three out of five.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Wasn't terrible, wasn't jumping up and down about it? Your book.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Well, I finished The Old of Golden and I give
it five out of five five stars all the feels.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
I love it. Do you need the actual physical copy
because I can give you mine.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Yeah, because I keep saying my kindle is broken, and
I keep saying I'm gonna fix my kindle and then
I'm going to read.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Does it seem like I'm going to do that?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Just take my physical copy. It's so good.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
Did you cry?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
I got emotional. I did not cry during this, which
is interesting. I don't know what's because you're feeling so good. Yeah,
maybe it's my testosterone. I I am what man? Now,
just kidding.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
I saw you on Friday, and I what did I
say to you? Oh? I don't remember what. Your vibe
is so different? Oh, like your vibe was vibing on Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
I had way more energy.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, Friday, I don't know that I feel that same
energy because obviously with our hormones, they fluctuate all the time.
So whatever was, whatever my concoction was, whatever was happening
inside my body on Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
I felt legit.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Yeah, I did.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Feel really really good.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
And I get my iron tomorrow, my and so finally
we'll get to do the study of two weeks after
the iron, I'm going to be a new person, so
we can set the clock and maybe well I have
to get two infusions, so maybe we have to set
it after the second infusion. But apparently that's where I'm
going to become a new person.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
That infusion take like a couple of.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Forty five minutes, I think, she said. But I have
to go back twice, and you can't just go anywhere
like I thought. I could go like cryocat works at
it where they give infusions like drip, i'v all the
NAD different things like that. So I thought, oh, well,
maybe they can just do the iron. But no, it's
it's a prescription. The two places I could go here,
(21:22):
one of them was in an oncology place, like where
cancer patients go, and I thought, oh, this is hardcore.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
You would think you would go to like a what
is the blood doctor, a phlebotomist or something. Oh, isn't
that what the person who studies blood is Like. You'd
go to their office and they would do it because
it's just in your Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
I get the first injection or infusion tomorrow, and then
the following week I'll get the second, and then the
clock will start and then the countdown happens in two weeks.
Then we can report back if you feel like I'm
a different person or not. Oh gosh, I will be
so sad. If I get worse, then.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Get this iron out of me.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Who cares like, well, I don't know what I'm gonna do,
but it will not be good. So theo Golden, that's
what I read. So good and what I'm watching is
heads up your friends and neighbors returned to Apple?
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Did you watch season one of that?
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Is that the show with John Ham and he there's
like the robbery. Yes, I had to stop watching that
because it was giving me anxiety because I was just like,
don't do it. It was one of those shows where
you're like, don't do it, but then there wouldn't be
a show if he didn't do it correct, So I
didn't finish the first season.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
You liked it.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I liked it enough to where I was like, oh,
season two's back. Cool, So that is what I have
started to watch.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
What about You?
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Okay, this is hilarious because Amy did say I'm gonna
give it behind the scene that we were going to
share this what we're watching I wrote a note in
our doc that I wanted to talk about.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
I wrote, lamar Odom colon or is that a semi colon?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Colon?
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Colon in my colon?
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Is the right?
Speaker 4 (23:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
Okay, yeah, colin metal World because I wanted to share
something I learned today. Amy said, well, you can share
that you're watching metal World and I was like, I'm
not watching metal World. Okay, there is a new untold
which are there's sports documentaries?
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Right?
Speaker 3 (23:21):
I like those are good.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
It's on lamar Odom. I'm only like thirty minutes in.
It's very interesting because like the arc, I'm like, what's
the point of this? Like, and why did he agree
to do? This? Does not paint him in a good light.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
However, Wait, is he alive? Yes, yes, he's in the documentary.
He he's and this is that's a big part of it.
His overdose and stuff. Why did I think he died because.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
He almost did and he overdose, had a brothel. Oh,
it was a huge story.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
And Chloe Kardashian is in this and he had a
whole he had another fiance that he had three kids with.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
She's in it.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
It's very interesting. He has very interesting life. But the
way he met Chloe. From my understanding, is this guy,
this this basketball player that was on I think he
was on the Lakers with Lamar. His name is ron
Our Test. But when they show him, you know how
they show somebody the first time in documentary, they'll say
their name instead of his name.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
It said Meta world Peace, formerly known as ron Our Test,
And I thought to myself, this man changed his name
to meadow world Peace. Yeah, did you know that? Yes,
this is like shocking information. I texted Patrick now was like,
there's a basketball player named metaworld Peace.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
I thought this was like great at news. He was like, yeah,
he's a little crazy. Apparently he's are there stories on him?
Speaker 4 (24:45):
Oh do you know who this is?
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Shoot, uh huh okay, Well I thought that was interesting.
That is how Lamar met Chloe Kardashian. Is this guy
had Chloe host something for him?
Speaker 6 (24:55):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Meta? Did does he go? I met him?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
I was just calling him that.
Speaker 5 (25:02):
Anyway, I would recommend even though I'm not done watching it.
It is, I mean, as sad as historia is, it's
very interesting. However, I don't know that it gets you
know how a lot of people have the document At
the end, it's like and they made something of themselves
and they changed their ways.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Oh, there's not like a redemption story happening.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
He was on a recent episode of The Kardashians and
it seemed as though he still was.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
I don't know if he's using.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
He could be sober, but I don't know that he
is on a I don't know what he's doing with
his life.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
I don't know how to say it.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Oh my gosh. When Shannon just looked this up.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
When Chloe met him at the party that he was hosting,
she was hosting for Meta, they married thirty days later.
They met at the party, instantly connected, married thirty days later.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
That is really crazy.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
And he didn't invite any of his family to the wedding.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Well his family, I think, no, Like he.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
Has like an aunt that raised him, Like he wouldn't
have invited his dad. I think his dad was used. Yeah,
and his mom had passed away. But like his aunts
and his cousins and any of them, none of them
were invited. Because his aunts in the documentary and none
of his kids went.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
His his daughters were.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
Like, and then I won't want to give too much
of this away, but his daughter or his son were
basically like, I didn't want to go to this wedding
and be like a show pony kind of thing, because
it seemed I think they were like, what's going on,
You're marrying my dad in thirty days? But apparently he
I think he just wanted to be more famous.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Well.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Lamar mentioned in a documentary that Chloe's eyes reminded him
of his mother's, which made him feel an immediate connection.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Is that like some freud? Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
If you look just like my mom, I want to
be with you.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
If Padrick reminded me of my dad's eyes, I think
I would have to be like, we'll be friends.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I saw a clip like who's the guy from Entrage,
Adrian Grenier or what's his name? He's like the really
beautiful guy from entre the good pretty eyes and the
good hair. He was doing some podcasts talking about how
in his romantic relationships he wanted to be like he
was very much a mama's boy and like, you know,
(27:13):
wanted to be held and he was like, you know,
like I was just like still like on the boob
or whatever, and I was like thinking, what and then
now you're associated you're talking about like and He's like,
and then when I'd be cuddling my wife, like I'd
be like, you know, holding her and on her boob
and be like, why aren't you holding me? Why aren't
you comforting me? Why aren't you you know? And I
was like, this is weird. I mean, it's not I understand,
(27:34):
but it just felt weird.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
But good for him. It seemed like he had done
a lot of internal work and.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
He wanted to be held like his mother held him.
I don't you just didn't need to say, like.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Yeah, the way it was like on the like however
he said it, I felt uncomfortable, but I appreciated overall
what he was saying.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
It was just the way he went about saying it
gave me the eck.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah. So I was like, oh, it just reminded me
of that, like him seeing his mom's eyes.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
And Patrick was like, I want to be on your boob, yeah, Like.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I want to like be on your boob because I
used to milk from my mom's boob.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Like I don't know, like that just I don't that's
just like not what I want to hear.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
I need to find this clip because I need to
know what he actually said.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Oh, I can try to find it for you, but
that's just something that interesting.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
I never watched Rage.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Yeah, I watched it a little bit here and there
because I know, I know what you're smiling. You're like, oh,
the other guy on trage, Jeremy Piven.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
I don't like you don't.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Last night I was gonna I couldn't I do know,
but yeah, no, I haven't replied, Well, okay, not.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Everything knows what you're talking about.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
He DM me, Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 5 (28:43):
And then I go and then I said, I don't
know that he has the best track record, and.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Then you with women, Yeah, so per the internet.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
Yeah, per Yeah, we don't have sources.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah, we don't know.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
We just Wikipedia. Yeah that's my source.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Yeah, it's like quickly search disclosed that. Maybe I don't
I don't know. Well, that's interesting about mar and Chloe
and Metada in that world and THEO we got. Yeah,
so you're not you watch the Untold.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Yeah, well I watched that first half of.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
The first half of it, and then you finished the
book and then you're going to start the Old Golden If.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
You give me the book today, I'll start it tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I will give you the book today.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Speaking of reading things, I saw that there are signs
of dyslexia and someone's speech, and I want to go
through the list and you tell me if you think
any of these apply to me as someone. I already
know I have dyslexia, so it's fine, you're not going
to like, we're not like diagnosing me here, But it's
just sort of when I saw this list, I was like, huh, I.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Know how I feel.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
But like, when you hear me say these things, do
you recognize them in me?
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Okay, why'd you make a weird face?
Speaker 5 (29:53):
Well, I was going to say, but then I don't
know if this is like ignorant? You read very well?
Thank you out loud? Yeah, Like that feels like that
would be a struggle if you have dyslected.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
Do you feel like you struggle with it? Because I
feel like.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
You struggle certain words. And I think I'm okay.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
I think I've done well with speaking, and I've had
to read a lot the last twenty years for work,
so therefore I read well in that way.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
But if I come.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Across a word that is a struggle for me, I
will change it.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
You'll just use a different word. Okay, yeah, that's smart.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
I'll use a different word. I think it's one of
those tools I had to just develop. Yeah over because
Disney also came out with a movie about dyslexia, a
little short film recently in the last couple of weeks.
I forget what it's called Maddie and maybe it's Maddie
has dyslexia.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
We'll look it up.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
In the movie, they address the misconception that which I'm
not saying. This is what you're implying that other people
think of dyslexia as that just automatically words are jumbled
and you can't read or it's difficult to read because
if you see thch, the people think people with dyslexia
are seeing AGT and it's like, what's the word where
(31:02):
it is? In some cases they do have letters that
get jumbled. That's not my form of dyslexia.
Speaker 5 (31:09):
Well, that's why I said this might be ignorant to say,
like I don't know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
So interesting, I'll figure out the name.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
So I'm telling you, if I think you have these,
you to the same.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Yeah, and this is from a dyslexia expert. Here are
some of the signs of dyslexia in someone's speech. They
struggle to say long words, They misuse or mispronounced words often.
(31:42):
Do you have a couple, Yeah, yeah, yolk, dwarf, crown.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
I don't like when you say yoke.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
They mishear words, which leads to misusing words.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
I know that one's hard for you to answer. They
struggle to find the words they want to use.
Speaker 4 (32:00):
Yes, but I feel like that's common.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Is that part of our ADHD too?
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Yeah, maybe they.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
Use them a lot.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
I don't think you do that really, but maybe it's
because I am used to you saying it.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
I don't know. I'd have to go back and look
for it. You have things that you say, but I
don't know if am is one of them.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
And like I say, I like you use but they
can speak articulately when speaking from the heart, but if
they need to explain something specific, they can really struggle
to articulate and make themselves clear.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
Yeah, that's why you love a script.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
I like a script in a moment if I'm having
to deal with something very specific.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
It helps you keep it concise, yes, and say what
you can.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Say what I need to say because I can go
I can yeah, or I have a difficult time even
recalling what I'm supposed to say because I'm so But
if I get to just speak from the heart. But
if it's something like I've been given a script, like
from a therapist or something, and it's very important that
you say it exactly this way, or you could enter
into a pattern or doing a dance as they call it,
with someone in your life.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
So that's why I like a script. They can use
a lot of language, but there's not always a lot
of substance to what they're saying. Do you feel like
you do that sometimes? Well you would call this a
word salad.
Speaker 4 (33:16):
Maybe because I like the way you do it. I
don't know, Oh cool.
Speaker 5 (33:19):
Word salid to me is when somebody is trying to
like avoid answering something, or when somebody's trying to sound
more eloquent but they're actually saying nothing. You know what
I mean, You're just animated and interesting.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
Oh dink you.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
The final thing is it can take them a long
time to.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
Get to the point. Yeah that one, yea yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But again I like the way you storytell.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, I know I'm not going to change any of
this about me. These are just some signs. And of
course if you have any of these, it doesn't mean
that you have dyslexia. Yeah there or other views, Yeah,
maybe you have a different one. It just is I'd
never heard someone talk about how you may be able
to pick up on it or get curious or about
their if they have a disorder, based on how they
(34:06):
talk talk in their speech patterns. And now I am like,
this is why I say yoke and drawer and crown
wrong every time in poem and poem I do.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
It all started for me.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
And there's some words I avoid at all costs. I
can't spell certain things for the life of me that
I smell restaurant because I guess I grew up in
the rest I spell guarantees. Guarantee is actually not that
hard for either. But what about license or diarrhea?
Speaker 5 (34:38):
Oh, I can't do that. I like give up on those.
When I'm like trying to auto cracks, I'm like, whatever,
you get what I'm saying, like.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
And it can't. But it can't. Sometimes it doesn't.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
Get autocractic because it doesn't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (34:52):
How can you?
Speaker 1 (34:53):
I'm obviously trying to spell nauja here, like, just get
me like I'm feeling. If I say I'm feeling in
you should know.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
I'm trying to say nauseous, so you should do it. Wait,
try to spell diarrhea d I. I can't do it either,
A DA R E h A H. I was gonna say,
h h A it's too r oh, it's too rs.
Okay d A D I A R R e h.
Speaker 4 (35:27):
No, Shannon's shaking her head. Okay h e S. Why
did they make it that way? Why did they spell it?
Don't know.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I wish I would recall this funny video I saw
someone mag the other day. I'm not going to do
it justice in telling back the details of this, but
just trust it was so funny.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
It was like, let me use restaurants.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Okay, restaurant rot like your brain is telling you, and
it's like your brain talking to you in this video
and he's like restaurant dummy like and it's like giving
you the ways to remember it, like Febrewary bite February.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
I can do restaurant, Yeah, restaurant. Garant can be difficult.
Speaker 5 (36:06):
Maybe I think I can do guarantee, But guarantee Okay,
g you, I don't have to.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
I'm looking at it.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Okay, g u A r e in you know.
Speaker 4 (36:20):
Oh you're like, Oh, guarantee is actually pretty easy for me.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
Apparently not.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I see it in my head and it looked correct.
Speaker 5 (36:27):
That's the problem. It looks correct, but it's not. There's
something tricky about it. Okay, try again, I see it.
Oh I saw it too late.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
I didn't mean to. I saw it. Oh see I
put to t's but it has to ease. Oh my gosh, diarrhea.
I had nothing right.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
So like his the video I saw, he'd be his
brain would be like dar dar hey idiot.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Like.
Speaker 5 (36:56):
Na shew it's we should say na see us, see us.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
No cio us like his brain be like naco us stupid.
But oh license.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
And say lick lick and say like these are ways
we need to start remembering it because we need to
know how to spell license lick and say.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
I can spell license.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
I cannot ever, so I avoid it.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
Do you want to hear a new thing people are
doing in the dating world?
Speaker 3 (37:29):
Yeah? Why are you doing that? Because I'm single?
Speaker 4 (37:32):
Now?
Speaker 3 (37:33):
Are you telling me this?
Speaker 6 (37:34):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (37:34):
And I want to make sure you're not being caught
up in this because it's not good. No boyo, as
they would say, Okay, I actually just learned about this
this morning. Have you heard the term seagulling spell seagull?
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Just kidding?
Speaker 1 (37:48):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (37:49):
Now, yeah, okay, so this is a new thing that
people are doing. It's when you have no real romantic
interest in a person, but you still keep others from
him or her.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Well wait, I don't really know how I feel about this.
This sounds it's not good, very problematic.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
Well, yeah, it's not good. It's bad. You don't want
to get caught in this saying yes, this is bad.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
You may like having control over the person or be
or be getting something that you don't want others to have.
So when I first heard this, I thought something different.
I thought it was like when you know, in middle
school and you're like, I like Brian and then none
of your friends could like Brian.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
Yeah, tell me you did that to him? Yeah, of course,
it's like you're not allowed to like him because I
like him. That's what I thought it was.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
But then Brian obviously doesn't like me, but nobody's allowed
to date them.
Speaker 4 (38:38):
That's what it was. But it's no, it's when you you're
I do not like amy, but I do things that
make sure nobody else can get to amy.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
So subconsciously do you like this person? Because why would
you be blocking?
Speaker 5 (38:54):
Well, why do people segel? This is what they say.
This is from an article on psychology today. So the
reason why do people sgull? They do this because they're
not ready to let go of you for whatever reason,
despite the lack of romantic interest in you. Maybe the seagull,
which is I don't know if you're the seagull around
the siegel.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Well we're not revolved, but what are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (39:16):
Maybe the seagull can still get something from you, such
as companionship status or financially that he or she doesn't
want to lose. It can be about possessiveness and control
as well. The seagull may like the idea of keeping
you on the hook, keeping you from anyone else. It
can be an ego boost to have that type of
sway over you that whenever the seagull calls, you'll be available.
This can essentially be food for someone who likes to manipulate.
(39:38):
So this is more so like I know that I
don't want to be with you. It's probably why a
lot of people end up in situationships. I know I
don't want to be with you, but I get something
out of you, So I want to make sure that
you don't leave me and go be with somebody else.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Does that make sense?
Speaker 1 (39:54):
Do you think that that one person that we talk
about you did he segal me because it's like he
wasn't interested and then until he was, and it was
when he lost kind of getting I don't want people
to take this the wrong way. It wasn't like things
for me other than it could even be like a meal,
you know, oh, like I'm not saying things for me
(40:15):
in other areas, but like just the comforts.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Of a home.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
He was.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
In a car.
Speaker 4 (40:22):
Groceries, right.
Speaker 5 (40:26):
He was seagulling you, and he was manipulting. He was manipulating.
Because I don't want to speak too much on this.
If I'm gonna say this, we can cut it out
if you want me to.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
If you say too much, I'll start screaming.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
Try it.
Speaker 5 (40:40):
You were not able to be interested in anybody else
while he.
Speaker 4 (40:43):
Was in your scity.
Speaker 1 (40:45):
What was also interesting is like I didn't know what
would be going on with us, So then I got
on hinge and then things would kind of uptick in communication,
sharing of photos, like appropriate photos, like I'm not.
Speaker 4 (41:00):
Just naked photos on.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
No popor no, no, not even that, just more like yeah,
like every type of communication, sharing more of life day
to day. You know, I'd be like, wait what I'm
and then it was confusing, but yeah, we didn't have
a term for it, but now I guess we do.
Speaker 5 (41:20):
And it was segulling and do you remember there? It
was just kind of more early on when we were talking,
you'll remember this. I was like, it's you just need
to know what the deal is, so then like you
can act appropriately if he's trying to date you, you
need to know if he's trying to date you. If
he's not trying to date you, then you need to
know that. So then you can like be friends with
him if you if you want it, if you're okay
with being friends with him. Remember you asked him, like
(41:41):
what the deal is? I don't know how you said it,
but he sent you back this voice memo and you
sent it to me and I was like.
Speaker 4 (41:47):
This says nothing.
Speaker 5 (41:49):
That is worre salid It said nothing, and it was
so long, and I was like, there's so many words,
and like he it was like he was talking in
the clouds. But then it gave you enough where you
were like, well, he might be trying to date me,
but like he wasn't.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
Until I said a boundary, until suddenly he was like
in love.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
Then he wanted to marry you right for how crazy?
So I didn't know this.
Speaker 5 (42:12):
But they call it seagulling because it says it's similar
to the tendency of seagulls to grab food whether or
not they're hungry, simply because they don't want others to
get the food.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
Seagulls are not friendly. Who knew? So watch your back?
Speaker 3 (42:39):
What do you call a seagull flying over the bay?
Speaker 4 (42:42):
Bagel?
Speaker 3 (42:44):
Bagel? You knew that? Did you know that?
Speaker 2 (42:46):
Joker?
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Or did you just guess it? I just put it together.
You're smart. No dyslexia. There just kidding people with slex I.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
Didn't want to imply that you're plenty of people with
the selexi. You're smart. There's just a lot of who
the governor of California was talking about hus he was dyslexic,
and there was a whole thing of like people saying
he like our president was saying.
Speaker 4 (43:09):
That was a surprise. Yeah enough, what has he made?
Speaker 3 (43:13):
You know? That's good times? Good times? You wait, did
we look up the name?
Speaker 1 (43:17):
I want to know the name of the Disney movie
that was about dyslexia. So maybe we can figure that
out if people want to watch it. Okay, we've got
Maddie in the test. Is the name of that Disney
movie that I was talking about earlier? We looked it up.
So it's a short film. Apparently it can be very helpful.
I have not watched it yet. I only have heard
about it, but I'm going to watch it. But it
(43:38):
might be good for your kids too. Where can you
watch it?
Speaker 3 (43:42):
It's Disney, so I imagined Disney Plus that makes a short
film on Disney.
Speaker 5 (43:48):
For some reason, when I hear short film, I think
that you can't watch them anywhere. I feel like you
have to go to a film Maybe it's YouTube. Well
this is something I've made up in my head.
Speaker 4 (43:58):
I haven't. I don't know. Yeah, you probably can watch
it on Disney Plus.
Speaker 5 (44:02):
But when you hear like at the Film Festival the
best short Film, I'm like, where are people watching this?
Speaker 1 (44:07):
So it's a twenty twenty six Disney Plus animated short
film that depicts the experience of a ten year old
girl named Maddie with dyslexia. The film illustrates the anxiety
and challenges she faces during a math test, such as
letters shifting and merging, while highlighting her inner strength to
overcome these challenges. So this particular character, it does do that. Actually, Ah,
(44:30):
now that I'm reading this description. The guy I saw
talking about this online he loved this film and thought
it was so great and was encouraging others to check
it out. I think, and now, if I'm recalling correctly,
one of his frustrations was he wished they would have
made it more clear that it's not just about letters
shifting and moving around. I think when I explained the
(44:52):
movie earlier said they were talking about it. I think
they did touch on that. But that was his one little,
teeny tiny gripe with it as someone that is dyslexic himself. Otherwise,
he thought it was done, really well done.
Speaker 6 (45:06):
Well.
Speaker 5 (45:06):
I think your homework, My homework is read of Golden
Your homework is to watch this Maddie and the test
and yeah, and see if you if that would have helped, Well,
you didn't know you had dyslexia.
Speaker 6 (45:15):
As no.
Speaker 1 (45:15):
And when I found out a couple of years ago
the right when she told me, I just started crying.
But I was like I couldn't even help it. You know,
when she was administering the test to me, I already
was like, okay, some parts I was I did really well.
Speaker 3 (45:30):
So I thought, oh, well, maybe you know not.
Speaker 1 (45:33):
And then when she told me, it's like the floodgate
was opened, and it was just this relief because suddenly
it all made sense all of my various struggles. I
now had to answer to a reason as to why
certain things were difficult. And yeay, I figured it out.
Speaker 5 (45:53):
What would have been different if you would have known
that as a kid was maybe you would have more resource.
Speaker 1 (45:58):
School would have been different had I'm telling you I
think I don't. I am not exaggerating at all when
I think sometimes teachers just passed me.
Speaker 4 (46:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
I wish I could go back and talk to some
of my teachers, like in good Little Time Machine and
be like, did.
Speaker 4 (46:14):
I really did I really do that grade? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (46:17):
Like, were you just like she's bright enough?
Speaker 4 (46:19):
Fuck it?
Speaker 6 (46:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (46:21):
Obviously when you got into college.
Speaker 1 (46:23):
Yeah, so that's interesting you say that because I didn't
I only applied to one college and I actually didn't
get in.
Speaker 4 (46:29):
Well, you went there, so what happened?
Speaker 3 (46:30):
I went there?
Speaker 1 (46:31):
Okay, So out of high school, I just applied to
Texas A and M. I didn't get in, so I
had to go to the junior college in College Station,
which is Blenn. So I moved to College Station and
then I was so mortified that I didn't get in
that whatever that does to my brain, my especially in Adah,
she brain being under pressure and feeling any shame and
(46:52):
wanting to prove to people like it was almost like
I had a deadline. I had one year at this
junior college to get into A and M. Because I
wasn't going to spend two year there. Oh I mean,
and I know some people do that that's fine, but
for me, I was like, ugh, I couldn't believe it,
which looking back, I shouldn't have been that shocked. I
did not really prepare for college at all, and I
(47:13):
just applied to one place because that's where my sister went.
Speaker 3 (47:14):
So I was like, well, that's where I'm gonna go.
Speaker 4 (47:16):
And you had no doubt that you would get in.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
I just kind of thought I just didn't really think
about it. Nobody really talked about I didn't do college visits.
My parents didn't really talk to me about college. Again,
that's just where my sister went, So that's what I did,
and even my sister had to figure that out herself.
Speaker 5 (47:30):
So if you could go back in time, are there
colleges you wish you would have applied to or went
and visited?
Speaker 4 (47:37):
Now, like looking back, I.
Speaker 1 (47:39):
Mean, it would have been cool. But I loved going
to them, so I wouldn't change anything. But when I
see moms taking their kids on college visits, like, I'm like, oh.
Speaker 5 (47:48):
I well, I asked that because I wish I would
have put more effort into like looking around. Yeah, the
school I went to I went to because my sister
was there and I was literally the same thing. And
I was supposed to go to Alabama, but I got
scared because I heard this is how anxious I was.
Although I think this is kind of legit reason not
to go somewhere. I heard that in the sororities at Alabama,
(48:10):
they're like hazing. Is that they sat you on dryers
and had them shake and had guys come circle all
your fat that was shaking. What that was a big rumor.
I don't know if they really do that, but I
was like I had. Also, I had a lot of
body image issues back then, and I was like, that's
my worst nightmare. And I didn't really like drink or
party anything or anything in high school and so going
(48:32):
to a school like that, I was like, are people
even gonna like me?
Speaker 3 (48:35):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (48:35):
So, but as someone who rushed in college, which I
think you did, I did to you, but they wouldn't
have no well there. Also, I was at Texas A
and M, where I think there was rumors of hazing,
but I had in the fraternities, sure they had certain things,
but the sororities, there was zero hazing like that. And
I would put like A and M and Alabama in
the same category of types of schools.
Speaker 5 (48:56):
Well, if you went to Alabama and you were in
a sorority and they made you sit on a dryer
and circle your fat, let me know, because that's the
sole reason I didn't go to that school, and it
changed the directory of my life. However, I will say
it worked out for the best. I have a feeling
if I went to Alabama, I don't know if I
would have lasted or like I could have gone crazy.
Speaker 3 (49:13):
Yeah, if that happened to you, which sorority was it?
We want to know?
Speaker 1 (49:17):
Certainly it was not going to report, but it wasn't.
I was Kapitapagamma.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
What were you find you?
Speaker 3 (49:21):
Oh? Find you find you kkgama.
Speaker 5 (49:26):
But also I went to I was in the same
storty as my sister too, So that's one thing that
I wish that like I had, which my sister was
two years older, so I had time by myself. But
I do wish that I and that's why I wanted
to go to Alabama, as nobody in my family went there.
Speaker 4 (49:39):
I wish I had my own complete yes, yes, or
nobody knew me.
Speaker 3 (49:44):
And I did end up going to it.
Speaker 1 (49:47):
My sister was a kyomega, and that was my one
thing where I thought, I don't want to go somewhere
just because I'm a legacy, because I feel like they
were picking me. I wanted to see if someplace would
pick me just for me, and so I ended up
going Kapa, which my sister was for very sad about.
Speaker 4 (50:01):
Well.
Speaker 5 (50:01):
I think that was why I did find you, is
that my sister would have been I don't know if
we would have made it through.
Speaker 3 (50:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (50:07):
Well and she was still there. My sister had already left,
so it would were four years apart. Okay, well back
to my freshman year. I really dialed in and I
got a four point zero and then got into an
m I don't even know. That was crazy to meet
your first four point oh oh yeah, or it was
like a three. Let me back up, back up, you
can round up. I definitely just had a little revisionist
(50:29):
history there. I got a three point nine, which is
basically a few point but I mean that, Yes, a
three point nine, that's the highest.
Speaker 3 (50:36):
Yes. In high school, I had a two point something.
What is that face?
Speaker 4 (50:42):
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make that face.
Speaker 3 (50:44):
You made it right after I said two points.
Speaker 4 (50:45):
Something like because I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (50:48):
Oh no, I was not a good student.
Speaker 4 (50:51):
But also, being a good student doesn't mean you're not intelligent.
I think that's why that's my shock.
Speaker 3 (50:56):
I'm like, well, you're pretty until your point.
Speaker 1 (50:57):
If I had had the tools and the resources, I
wasn't a good student because school was hard.
Speaker 3 (51:01):
Yeah, I was very social. I could get by enough,
but I didn't read. I hated to read.
Speaker 1 (51:09):
I think eventually I figured out, but I didn't start
reading until I was an adult, Like I read books
now and this is my year.
Speaker 5 (51:14):
You have to qualify what you're saying. But you mean
like you didn't start reading books for fun until you're
an adult.
Speaker 4 (51:20):
Correct?
Speaker 6 (51:21):
But I.
Speaker 3 (51:23):
Also didn't read any of the required reading that.
Speaker 4 (51:25):
I thought you meant, like you didn't learn how to read?
Speaker 3 (51:27):
Are you kidding? I just about the cliffs notes for everything.
Speaker 4 (51:30):
Yeah, yeah, of course, I feel like that's pretty normal.
Speaker 6 (51:33):
Oh okay, Well, and I barely read those you read
them like right before the test.
Speaker 1 (51:38):
So math was difficult because also with dyslexia, there's and
I don't know how to say this because of my dyslexia,
I can never say it correctly. But it's like dyscalculated,
that's the.
Speaker 3 (51:48):
Math version of it. And I have that too.
Speaker 1 (51:51):
So yeah, I feel like some teachers are like, she's
got potential, so let's just send her on to the next.
Speaker 4 (51:59):
She's trying her best. But would you even say you're
trying or do you just kind of give up? Sometimes?
Speaker 3 (52:02):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (52:04):
I have little memory of memorizing things and having tips
and tricks and tools on how to remember things, because
I think I was just surviving in the moment because
by the time I got to high school and people
knew all their adverbs and nouns.
Speaker 3 (52:20):
Like I was like, what the you'reized?
Speaker 1 (52:25):
Yes, But I remember my freshman year of high school,
like there was like a pop quiz the first day
from our English teacher, mister Warren.
Speaker 3 (52:32):
He was very hard core e so work for NASA,
and I.
Speaker 1 (52:36):
Was very intimidated by him, and I think he was
frustrated by me. But we had this pop quiz and
I remember looking around and all these people they knew
exactly what they were doing, and I was like, what
the Like, I don't know what he was talking about,
and it was basic stuff and I failed the quiz.
But that's just like it didn't retain, like whatever I
had learned maybe in seventh eighth grade, they didn't retain
(52:58):
and come over with me to ninth grade and I
was like, first day of school, like I needed I
could survive.
Speaker 4 (53:04):
A pop quiz on the first day of school that.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
He did come on NASA. He didn't mess around.
Speaker 1 (53:12):
I think it was a disgruntled astronaut who didn't get
to go to space but he wanted to. Maybe I'm
not sure, actually I'm sure he was a lovely person.
I just was very, very intimidated by him, Like he
remember recalled my mom to talk to her. But then
I think I've told you before. My parents didn't really
have the bandwidth to worry about my school.
Speaker 3 (53:28):
They just didn't. My dad wasn't that involved.
Speaker 1 (53:31):
And then my mom was so busy trying to figure
out her stuff after my dad left, like trying to
build her career, and she was so busy, Like they
never asked for my report card or anything. So I
didn't have accountability at home. I had good parents, they
were involved, but there wasn't accountability.
Speaker 5 (53:46):
Do you think you would have if you this is
a hard question to ask, but if you would have
had the resources and you felt more confident in school,
is there a career you feel like you would have
gone into this guy's limit. There wasn't like something that
you wanted to do, and you're like, I could never
do that. Like maybe you wanted to be a doctor,
but you're like, I'll never be able to.
Speaker 1 (54:06):
I mean I thought about being a veterinarian for quite
some time because my uncle was, and obviously a and m.
That's then at some point you figure out that's off
the table. At some point you're like, probably not gonna happen.
I don't know exactly when.
Speaker 3 (54:21):
That revelation was, but I realized, like, probably not in
the cards for me. But I was like, if my
uncle Frank can do.
Speaker 4 (54:29):
It, I can do it.
Speaker 3 (54:30):
I can do it. But anyways worked out for you.
That's my journey.
Speaker 1 (54:34):
Yeah, I'm fine with it because it gave me. Who
knows what other qualities that gave me as part of
my personality, how I show up, who I am like,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (54:43):
The resilience factor. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (54:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (54:49):
At this point, we're not going to change it. I'm
just gonna drink diet Cokes and who cares. None of
this matters anyways.
Speaker 4 (54:55):
We're all gonna die full circle.
Speaker 3 (54:59):
Don't think that way. Don't think that way.
Speaker 4 (55:01):
You told us to think that way.
Speaker 3 (55:03):
Being satirical, Yes, is that selling s A.
Speaker 4 (55:12):
I are set her cool eye cool.
Speaker 1 (55:16):
We hope wherever you are, your loving life live in large,
and that you have the day you need to have.
Speaker 3 (55:23):
Bye.
Speaker 5 (55:23):
Bye
All right, break it down.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
If you ever have feelings that you just fonts maybe
a cat got your cover and locking. No, brother, ladies
and felts, do you just follow Ann the spirit where
it's all the front and real stuff to the chill
stuff and the m but Swayne. Sometimes the best thing
you can do it just stop you feel things. This
(00:27):
is feeling things.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
With Amy and Cat. Happy Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Welcome to feeling things. I'm Amy, I'm Cat, and I
am feeling refreshed. Okay, So I got an or ring
and it's now my new identity.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
Wait, I saw you wearing that. It didn't even register
Is that new? Yeah? How new?
Speaker 3 (00:47):
At this point one, two, three, four days or so.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
So I've seen you wear very new. So you weren't Friday.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Maybe yeah, you probably just wasn't registering.
Speaker 4 (00:58):
So tell me about I tried this life.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Okay, Well, I'm feeling refreshed because I've never had anything
ever in my life that has ever tracked my sleep.
And I have received so far a good score, a
couple of good scores, and I already received an excellent score,
which apparently is rare, and it gives you a little
crown by your sleep score.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
If you do good. And I love a good celebratory notification.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
So even if your sleep isn't different, just knowing that
like it was good, it's like okay, then it's double good.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah, okay, sort of back to the placebo effect we
talk about sometimes, like who knows if I'm actually really refreshed,
but I feel refreshed.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Is that why you got the ring? Just to track sleep? Yes?
Speaker 3 (01:45):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I mean, I'll I suppose, oh, in my cycle, especially
now that I'm in my hormone replacement therapy, I just
want to be in the know of all the things.
So I'm sleeping with it and I'm tracking it and
I'm refreshed. What's your feeling of the day.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
Okay, I'll have to say this. I got I acted
like I got an or ring. I got the off
brand called the Ultra Human.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
You I've never heard of that.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
You can get a costco.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
It was less expensive, and they were saying that, oh,
you don't have to pay a subscription for it, so
all the features just come with it versus or I
have to pay a subscription. I got it to track
my cycle, and it always would die. You know, what's
the point if it's dying. So anyway, maybe i'll I
don't need to track my cycle now, but I learned
(02:31):
that I can't track my cycle.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
My cycle is untrackable.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
AnyWho, I'm feeling excited and I was trying to think
of a word for this. I guess celebratory because I
won a competition in my household and.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
The prize is really good, like an Easter game.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
No, so well, I wish like now, so every year Patrick,
I will do a competition for March Madness. He's in
like four other competitions, but then we have one together
that will fill out brackets and whoever wins gets a prize.
The first year it was like I think when we
(03:13):
were dating, so I was like, you have to take
me to a fancy restaurant. Then I think it was
like you have to whoever loses has to clean the bathroom.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
The last two years.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
It's been whoever loses has to plan a debt a
full day for the person who won of like all
their favorite things.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
I think I talked about this when I had to
do it for Patrick last year.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Yes, I remember, yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
And I won, so he has some man a day
for me.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Okay, that's gonna be fabulous.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
And I'm excited about what it's going to be. And
also I'm just like, what does it feel like to lose?
Speaker 4 (03:44):
To me? I don't know anything about basketball. I like
her studies.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
It celebratory fits you're feeling, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Maybe what's I'm feeling? Glowedy like haha nana nebi boo.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:57):
And my team that I put to win is in
the finals, so like I.
Speaker 5 (04:00):
Could get that's crazy to predict who one and I
don't know anything about it.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
You could get a prize from that too.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
No, I didn't put my bracket in any.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Other Oh okay, last year, I got really.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Close to winning the bracket at my gym, but I
lost because of the last game. Isn't that crazy? All
these guys have their brackets and then it's like little
me at the top. Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
You show up at your gym, you played the bracket there?
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Yeah, they do every year. I'm not a member anymore
because we moved. But you can pay. I think it
was like.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
Just joined twenty dollars, twenty dollars or something, and then
you would win like eight hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
My pilates placed an Easter egg hunt thing where they
had these golden eggs hidden throughout the studio and I
found one of the golden eggs and I took it
and it was empty, so yeah, and so then they
were like, oh, it maybe was one that somebody got,
and then they set it down when they were putting
their shoes on or something.
Speaker 4 (04:57):
They should give you something.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Well, they did say.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
That, but I already felt awkward because I like, yeah,
I walked out of the bathroom and it was sitting
right there on the window still. So I was like, well,
I feel silly, but the egg is right there waiting
for me, and then the front desk is right there.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
So I just grabbed the egg and I was like
I just.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Found this and they were like ooh fine, and they
open it up and they go, oh, it's empty, and
I was like, oh, that's okay because I already felt
silly turning in the egg for the prize.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
And then they were like, well, we've got to.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Get you something you wouldn't get you and I was
like no, no, no, no, no, seriously, it's okay.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
And then I just walked out because I was like,
what I felt weird.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I want to give you a hug.
Speaker 5 (05:36):
Why because I can imagine that feeling of like it's okay.
I know, I wasn't excited, like you get right.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Right, I found the golden egg.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
I found the golden egg, and then I was like, okay,
I'm not like you walk.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Out and like it wasn't that big of a deal.
Then you start crying.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I definitely didn't start crying, but I definitely just wanted
to get the heck out of there because I didn't
want to make it a thing to where they now
have to come up with an extra prize, because.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Well, what were the prizes like free, like a hair.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Of socks, like sticky socks, that would be legit.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I should give you socks.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
I mean, I'm not worried about it. I already walked out.
I was like, happyaster, I gotta gotta go, gotta go.
I can't even believe I grabbed the egg. I should
have just kept.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Walking because I was like, if I knew during class
and they announced it, I was like, well, if I
see an egg, I'm gonna leave it for somebody because
that will be fun for them. But then when I
walked to the bathroom and the egg was like staring
at me that, I was like, now, I guess like,
why wouldn't I can't walk past the egg.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
And then I went in so excited and then.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It was empty, and I was like, well, well, I
do have a fun thing that I saw since we're
at the start of the episode, that this could be
something you could use at the beginning of a meeting.
I mean, not really, but it's just a perspective to
like think about and maybe we start keeping in mind
at the beginning of an episode.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Okay, Okay, it was just a little it's.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Satire, okay, like someone had posted it on Instagram of like,
this is the perfect way to start a meeting. By
the way, before we begin, we're all gonna die and
none of this really matters. None of this is life
or death. We're not saving lives. It's not that deep.
So just a reminder before anyone gets too worked up
over something with no real significance. I wanted to set
(07:15):
that straight. Okay, let's get started. And then you know,
so I thought, okay, yeah, like we're here, we're doing
a podcast, we're having a good time.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
We're not saving lives here. Now.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
If you're on a medical team and you're having a meeting,
you are you cannot use that you are saving lives,
and I'm sure some meetings are very important and they
are significant. However, a lot of times we can get
worked up throughout the day at work about things that
just really don't matter, or we can treat things with
such urgency that don't really need the attention at that
(07:45):
exact moment.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
I had a.
Speaker 5 (07:47):
Boss when I taught cycling who would get very worked
up about things, which like, is he owns a business,
he's probably stressed whatever, bla. And the manager would always
be like, we're literally just riding bike because it's not
that serious, which I don't know if she said would
say that to him, but she would say it like
if we were in the mix of all.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Of it, which was helpful.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
It's like, yeah, no, everything's fine, everything is figure outable.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Here, you know, open to creative solutions.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Yes, Okay, So we can't get worked up about this
because we're not doing brain surgery and we're all going
to die one day.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Right, cool, So we can talk about whatever you want.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Okay, Then I have something I want to talk about.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
What do you want to talk about?
Speaker 5 (08:29):
So this just made a really big difference and brought
me so much joy. So I just want to share it.
I had this itch.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
You know.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
I moved into my house in September. There's a lot
of things I want to do, but we're trying to
do them slowly so we're not spending a ton of
money at once. And I made the smallest change in
my house and I walk around being like, I could
sell this house for four million dollars. Now we could
not do that, not even clothes. I switched the light
(08:59):
switch covers.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
From white. Do you have the white ones?
Speaker 6 (09:04):
Well?
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Mine, I change them to brown.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Oh oh, I can't even see one.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Okay, so you know the walls are brown and it
blends in so like, but you have to eye had
to have an electrician coum because the little the little
switchy knob thing is also not white.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
It's not just the plate cover.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Oh you really did it big shoot.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Sorry, okay, okay, sorry, I will. Your dad could probably
change it, pod I would.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
I will say it does bother in a little bit
that Like the switches are still white, and you can
because I switch them to this like gold brass.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Yes, I have some that are brass with a white
I'm talking about my brow. Like if I did a
brown plate, I got a brown switch. But my some
of my brass plates my white, some of my unlacquered
brass plates, so that they'll create some patina.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
They are white, Okay, that makes you feel better mineor
lacquered brass.
Speaker 5 (09:52):
They're probably actually plastic. They're from Amazon. They're so cheap
and it makes the biggest difference. And now I just
love staring at my walls. Ah, I know, like you
get something new and you just want to look at it.
And I felt really adult because I just went around
with a screwdriver and did it myself. Just changed jobs,
like look at me, I'm an electrician.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (10:13):
So if anybody needs an easy, inexpensive switch to liven
up their house light switch.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Cover, you know who has and Amazon may have these.
You know who has really cute light covers Anthropology.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
Yes they're so expensive though, Well.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
You can type into Amazon Anthropology light switch and it'll
pull up some that they're not Anthropology brand, but they
have that whimsy vibe that can be a little more ornate. Well,
it's okay, you got some that made you feel happy.
I'm just saying for future you haven't. You're taking it slow,
so you didn't do every room right, for every light switch.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
I did almost every light switch except our bonus room
and the baby nursery.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
So maybe for the baby so you could give a
whimsy one.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
We're going for an antique vibe in the nursery. I
got a little I didn't get my sister in law's
giving me a crystal chandelier that she had an old house,
and I'm like trying to I'm trying to build around.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
The light fixture. You know, I don't like pink, and
I'm not very girly, so I don't want it to
be too girly, you know.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Yeah, I think it's good to like keep it neutral
because then also.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
I know that's gonna be neutral. I'm gonna do wallpaper.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
It's gonna be more feminine, but but.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Not too cutesy gurly. If that makes sense. Watch it
be like all pink. It might change my mind.
Speaker 5 (11:38):
That's okay anyway, light switch covers shout out. I wanted
to share that.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
So, speaking of life not taking life too seriously, I
have been enjoying way more diet coax than my usual
gas tank reward because what was it? A week ago?
I came across this Instagram video from my doctor that
it's pretty wise. I like a lot of her input
(12:03):
on some things. And I saw her talking about diet
coke and that you could have like eighteen a day,
which nobody's having eighteen a day. I guess some people
might be if they have a real addiction to it.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
But it's so expensive, I know.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
But there are people that drink a lot of Mountain
Dew diet coke, Like, I'm sure they're out there if
they're having multiple cokes throughout the day. I eliminated diet
coke altogether. Then I started to bring it back. If
I fill my guests hang up on time, I get
my little diet coke reward. Well, this last week, I've
probably had more diet cokes than ever, but not no
(12:38):
more than one a day. But it's the amount, Like
we have all this fear around us all the time,
which I have contributed to the fear as well. I've
regurgitated it.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
I am sorry.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
I am doing my best as a human to get
by in this world. And you hear, okay, the ingredients
in this are bad. Was done on a rat, and
a rat is this tiny?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
I am big.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
Rat, big right, other people bigger like? So therefore you
can maybe have more than eighteen. You can have two, five,
maybe twenty five. I don't know, but it's it's all
about it's all relative to your size, your weight, what
(13:26):
you can handle. And while I'm not going to be
throwing them back all the time, I am going to
enjoy them, which brings me to last week. I was
at a track meet when I learned this, and if
you are a track parent, you know, and your child
is in more than one event, you can.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Be there for long time, long time, long time.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
So in between one of my son's races, I thought, Oh,
I think there's a McDonald's around the corner.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
I'm going to go get one.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
As I was driving to McDonald's, it occurred to me, oh,
Cat lives around the corner.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
I wonder if she's home.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
So I go through the drive through and I get
a diet coke for us meet you, and I'm just
gonna drop it off real quick because I don't have
a lot of time.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
But again, I had just seen that study, so I thought.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Cheers, bottoms up, let's go. I'm going to take Cat
of diet coke. And then I texted and you were
still at works. You weren't home, so I took the
diet coke back to the race with me, which my
friend Claire was there, and it was so funny how
that worked out because she was sitting in the stands
and when I walked up holding two diet coke, she
was like, if that other diet coke is for me,
like you're my favorite person in the world, and I
(14:32):
was like.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
It is, and then I gave it to her that
I could offer that to her.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Yeah, And so I enjoyed that McDonald's diet coke. And
then I also got another diet coke when I went
to Chick fil A with Stevenson, and then I got
another can waiting for me.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
I just you feel freedom now.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, It's like, why it have to be so serious
about the diet coke people.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
Well, I got really scared because I saw a lot
of people saying that you can't drink them when you're pregnant,
And at first I thought it was because of the caffeine.
But there's only like, well, there's only fifty milligrams of
caffeine or whatever, and you can have two hundred, so
I could have technically have four of those.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Okay, Well I have got you a medium.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
I would have probably drink a lot, Okay, but I
so I stopped drinking them for a while, and I
was it was really sad.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
At first, I got the At first I got the
caffeine free cans at the grocery store.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
They're not the same. I okay, do you friendly they
taste the same?
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Well, maybe I was just telling myself that.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
But then I started seeing more people saying like, you're
not supposed to have it because of the ingredients of it.
And so then I was like, well, shoot, I can't
go nine months without. I don't drink a diet coke
every day, but like when I want one, I want one.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
And if I have like Chick fl A or something,
well Chick fil A, I like to get a lemonade.
Speaker 5 (15:52):
But anyway, if I have certain things, if I'm out
to eat a lot of times I'm like, I want
a die cooke. And so I asked my doctor, and
this is some information for all of us. Your doctor
knows best TikTok and Instagram sometimes knows what your doctor knows,
but also sometimes scares you.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Well, to be clear, the person I saw on Instagram
is a legit doctor doctor. She's the family practice.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Well, I think I was just seeing like other pregnant peoples. Okay,
I never saw a doctor say don't do this.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I'm also, she wasn't even talking about pregnancy, so I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Carry on.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
She didn't say anything about the caffeine. She said to
limit artificial sweeteners to one serving a day, So she said,
you can have one a day if you.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Want one, and you're likely not going to have one
a day.
Speaker 5 (16:37):
No, but can but can I save them up and
have a large at the end of the week.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
I mean, but I guess it's probably how much your
body can process at once in the.
Speaker 6 (16:48):
Answer that I want to Sorry, but but yeah, I mean,
what are they would they base it on with the
like a little pregnant rat?
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Yeah, I don't know. I think she also, I don't know,
because this is a new doctor for me. I think
think she airs more on the side of caution and
is more like natural and stuff. I had to get
a new doctor because I moved and my doctor moved
to California, so we both moved.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Did you know a rat's only pregnant for three weeks?
Speaker 4 (17:11):
What the heck?
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Yeah, they can get pregnant and deliver the baby in
a three week period.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
What.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Yeah, that's why there's so many rats. That's like, if
there's a rat.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
So they could have a lot of babies a lot
of the time, a lot.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yeah, that's why in where there's high volumes of people
and trash in places.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Like New York or DC.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Did you see the.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Lot of rats. Yes, that's how I know this. That's
how I know this. I talked about this on the
Bobby Bone Show. In DC.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
They're doing a pilot program where they're giving rats birth control.
How so, like they're setting bait and in the bait
is birth control for the rat and then so not
if they need rats as part of the ecosystem, so
they don't want to kill the rats. They just need
to control the amount they that they are producing. So
if some of the rats receive the birth control, then
(17:59):
that's less rats. Because they're monitoring them in a three
week period. And I was like a three week period
because that like first, I was like three weeks.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
They're they're the specific bait somewhere and then they're monitoring
the rat population.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
Oh, the population.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
Okay, it's a pilot program. I mean there's a lot
of people.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
They're spending like one hundred and fifty thousand dollars on
the pilot program to try to control the rats.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
I would be curious, would they just have to take
one pill because like you want to take birth control?
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I know.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
No, they do the same time everything to the bait,
so I don't know. They have to like take the
bait and eat it and then there.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
It's a pilot program, so they don't really know for
sure work if this is going to work.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
But yeah, they're giving the rats some BC, some birth control.
Huh yeah, some good.
Speaker 6 (18:42):
Times like yeah, rats.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah. Let's do a little bit of what are we watching?
What are we reading? Let's do a little bit of
what are we watching? What are we reading?
Speaker 5 (19:02):
I'm reading nothing, but my goal is to read read,
read with my eyes in my brain THEO of Golden
I just finished with my ears.
Speaker 4 (19:13):
My husband's wife.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Well, so you are reading, but last two of a
book is reading?
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Yes it is, but I want to I'm saving three
of a Golden because I want to read read it.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
But what that's doing is just making me never read it.
Speaker 5 (19:25):
But this book, I would give a three out of five.
Speaker 4 (19:31):
Wasn't terrible, wasn't jumping up and down about it? Your book.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Well, I finished The Old of Golden and I give
it five out of five five stars all the feels.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
I love it. Do you need the actual physical copy
because I can give you mine.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Yeah, because I keep saying my kindle is broken, and
I keep saying I'm gonna fix my kindle and then
I'm going to read.
Speaker 4 (19:50):
Does it seem like I'm going to do that?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Just take my physical copy. It's so good.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
Did you cry?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
I got emotional. I did not cry during this, which
is interesting. I don't know what's because you're feeling so good. Yeah,
maybe it's my testosterone. I I am what man? Now,
just kidding.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
I saw you on Friday, and I what did I
say to you? Oh? I don't remember what. Your vibe
is so different? Oh, like your vibe was vibing on Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
I had way more energy.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Yeah, Friday, I don't know that I feel that same
energy because obviously with our hormones, they fluctuate all the time.
So whatever was, whatever my concoction was, whatever was happening
inside my body on Friday.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
I felt legit.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Yeah, I did.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
Feel really really good.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
And I get my iron tomorrow, my and so finally
we'll get to do the study of two weeks after
the iron, I'm going to be a new person, so
we can set the clock and maybe well I have
to get two infusions, so maybe we have to set
it after the second infusion. But apparently that's where I'm
going to become a new person.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
That infusion take like a couple of.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Forty five minutes, I think, she said. But I have
to go back twice, and you can't just go anywhere
like I thought. I could go like cryocat works at
it where they give infusions like drip, i'v all the
NAD different things like that. So I thought, oh, well,
maybe they can just do the iron. But no, it's
it's a prescription. The two places I could go here,
(21:22):
one of them was in an oncology place, like where
cancer patients go, and I thought, oh, this is hardcore.
Speaker 5 (21:30):
You would think you would go to like a what
is the blood doctor, a phlebotomist or something. Oh, isn't
that what the person who studies blood is Like. You'd
go to their office and they would do it because
it's just in your Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
I get the first injection or infusion tomorrow, and then
the following week I'll get the second, and then the
clock will start and then the countdown happens in two weeks.
Then we can report back if you feel like I'm
a different person or not. Oh gosh, I will be
so sad. If I get worse, then.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Get this iron out of me.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
Who cares like, well, I don't know what I'm gonna do,
but it will not be good. So theo Golden, that's
what I read. So good and what I'm watching is
heads up your friends and neighbors returned to Apple?
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Did you watch season one of that?
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Is that the show with John Ham and he there's
like the robbery. Yes, I had to stop watching that
because it was giving me anxiety because I was just like,
don't do it. It was one of those shows where
you're like, don't do it, but then there wouldn't be
a show if he didn't do it correct, So I
didn't finish the first season.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
You liked it.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I liked it enough to where I was like, oh,
season two's back. Cool, So that is what I have
started to watch.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
What about You?
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Okay, this is hilarious because Amy did say I'm gonna
give it behind the scene that we were going to
share this what we're watching I wrote a note in
our doc that I wanted to talk about.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
I wrote, lamar Odom colon or is that a semi colon?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Colon?
Speaker 4 (22:58):
Colon in my colon?
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Is the right?
Speaker 4 (23:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (23:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
Okay, yeah, colin metal World because I wanted to share
something I learned today. Amy said, well, you can share
that you're watching metal World and I was like, I'm
not watching metal World. Okay, there is a new untold
which are there's sports documentaries?
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Right?
Speaker 3 (23:21):
I like those are good.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
It's on lamar Odom. I'm only like thirty minutes in.
It's very interesting because like the arc, I'm like, what's
the point of this? Like, and why did he agree
to do? This? Does not paint him in a good light.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
However, Wait, is he alive? Yes, yes, he's in the documentary.
He he's and this is that's a big part of it.
His overdose and stuff. Why did I think he died because.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
He almost did and he overdose, had a brothel. Oh,
it was a huge story.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
And Chloe Kardashian is in this and he had a
whole he had another fiance that he had three kids with.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
She's in it.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
It's very interesting. He has very interesting life. But the
way he met Chloe. From my understanding, is this guy,
this this basketball player that was on I think he
was on the Lakers with Lamar. His name is ron
Our Test. But when they show him, you know how
they show somebody the first time in documentary, they'll say
their name instead of his name.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
It said Meta world Peace, formerly known as ron Our Test,
And I thought to myself, this man changed his name
to meadow world Peace. Yeah, did you know that? Yes,
this is like shocking information. I texted Patrick now was like,
there's a basketball player named metaworld Peace.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
I thought this was like great at news. He was like, yeah,
he's a little crazy. Apparently he's are there stories on him?
Speaker 4 (24:45):
Oh do you know who this is?
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Shoot, uh huh okay, Well I thought that was interesting.
That is how Lamar met Chloe Kardashian. Is this guy
had Chloe host something for him?
Speaker 6 (24:55):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Meta? Did does he go? I met him?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
I was just calling him that.
Speaker 5 (25:02):
Anyway, I would recommend even though I'm not done watching it.
It is, I mean, as sad as historia is, it's
very interesting. However, I don't know that it gets you
know how a lot of people have the document At
the end, it's like and they made something of themselves
and they changed their ways.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Oh, there's not like a redemption story happening.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
He was on a recent episode of The Kardashians and
it seemed as though he still was.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
I don't know if he's using.
Speaker 5 (25:28):
He could be sober, but I don't know that he
is on a I don't know what he's doing with
his life.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
I don't know how to say it.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Oh my gosh. When Shannon just looked this up.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
When Chloe met him at the party that he was hosting,
she was hosting for Meta, they married thirty days later.
They met at the party, instantly connected, married thirty days later.
Speaker 3 (25:48):
That is really crazy.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
And he didn't invite any of his family to the wedding.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Well his family, I think, no, Like he.
Speaker 5 (25:57):
Has like an aunt that raised him, Like he wouldn't
have invited his dad. I think his dad was used. Yeah,
and his mom had passed away. But like his aunts
and his cousins and any of them, none of them
were invited. Because his aunts in the documentary and none
of his kids went.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
His his daughters were.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
Like, and then I won't want to give too much
of this away, but his daughter or his son were
basically like, I didn't want to go to this wedding
and be like a show pony kind of thing, because
it seemed I think they were like, what's going on,
You're marrying my dad in thirty days? But apparently he
I think he just wanted to be more famous.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Well.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Lamar mentioned in a documentary that Chloe's eyes reminded him
of his mother's, which made him feel an immediate connection.
Speaker 4 (26:37):
Is that like some freud? Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
If you look just like my mom, I want to
be with you.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
If Padrick reminded me of my dad's eyes, I think
I would have to be like, we'll be friends.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I saw a clip like who's the guy from Entrage,
Adrian Grenier or what's his name? He's like the really
beautiful guy from entre the good pretty eyes and the
good hair. He was doing some podcasts talking about how
in his romantic relationships he wanted to be like he
was very much a mama's boy and like, you know,
(27:13):
wanted to be held and he was like, you know,
like I was just like still like on the boob
or whatever, and I was like thinking, what and then
now you're associated you're talking about like and He's like,
and then when I'd be cuddling my wife, like I'd
be like, you know, holding her and on her boob
and be like, why aren't you holding me? Why aren't
you comforting me? Why aren't you you know? And I
was like, this is weird. I mean, it's not I understand,
(27:34):
but it just felt weird.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
But good for him. It seemed like he had done
a lot of internal work and.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
He wanted to be held like his mother held him.
I don't you just didn't need to say, like.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
Yeah, the way it was like on the like however
he said it, I felt uncomfortable, but I appreciated overall
what he was saying.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
It was just the way he went about saying it
gave me the eck.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah. So I was like, oh, it just reminded me
of that, like him seeing his mom's eyes.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
And Patrick was like, I want to be on your boob, yeah, Like.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
I want to like be on your boob because I
used to milk from my mom's boob.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Like I don't know, like that just I don't that's
just like not what I want to hear.
Speaker 5 (28:08):
I need to find this clip because I need to
know what he actually said.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Oh, I can try to find it for you, but
that's just something that interesting.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
I never watched Rage.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Yeah, I watched it a little bit here and there
because I know, I know what you're smiling. You're like, oh,
the other guy on trage, Jeremy Piven.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
I don't like you don't.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Last night I was gonna I couldn't I do know,
but yeah, no, I haven't replied, Well, okay, not.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Everything knows what you're talking about.
Speaker 3 (28:41):
He DM me, Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 5 (28:43):
And then I go and then I said, I don't
know that he has the best track record, and.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Then you with women, Yeah, so per the internet.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
Yeah, per Yeah, we don't have sources.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah, we don't know.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
We just Wikipedia. Yeah that's my source.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Yeah, it's like quickly search disclosed that. Maybe I don't
I don't know. Well, that's interesting about mar and Chloe
and Metada in that world and THEO we got. Yeah,
so you're not you watch the Untold.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Yeah, well I watched that first half of.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
The first half of it, and then you finished the
book and then you're going to start the Old Golden If.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
You give me the book today, I'll start it tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
I will give you the book today.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Speaking of reading things, I saw that there are signs
of dyslexia and someone's speech, and I want to go
through the list and you tell me if you think
any of these apply to me as someone. I already
know I have dyslexia, so it's fine, you're not going
to like, we're not like diagnosing me here, But it's
just sort of when I saw this list, I was like, huh, I.
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Know how I feel.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
But like, when you hear me say these things, do
you recognize them in me?
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Okay, why'd you make a weird face?
Speaker 5 (29:53):
Well, I was going to say, but then I don't
know if this is like ignorant? You read very well?
Thank you out loud? Yeah, Like that feels like that
would be a struggle if you have dyslected.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
Do you feel like you struggle with it? Because I
feel like.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
You struggle certain words. And I think I'm okay.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
I think I've done well with speaking, and I've had
to read a lot the last twenty years for work,
so therefore I read well in that way.
Speaker 4 (30:15):
But if I come.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Across a word that is a struggle for me, I
will change it.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
You'll just use a different word. Okay, yeah, that's smart.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
I'll use a different word. I think it's one of
those tools I had to just develop. Yeah over because
Disney also came out with a movie about dyslexia, a
little short film recently in the last couple of weeks.
I forget what it's called Maddie and maybe it's Maddie
has dyslexia.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
We'll look it up.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
In the movie, they address the misconception that which I'm
not saying. This is what you're implying that other people
think of dyslexia as that just automatically words are jumbled
and you can't read or it's difficult to read because
if you see thch, the people think people with dyslexia
are seeing AGT and it's like, what's the word where
(31:02):
it is? In some cases they do have letters that
get jumbled. That's not my form of dyslexia.
Speaker 5 (31:09):
Well, that's why I said this might be ignorant to say,
like I don't know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
So interesting, I'll figure out the name.
Speaker 4 (31:15):
So I'm telling you, if I think you have these,
you to the same.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Yeah, and this is from a dyslexia expert. Here are
some of the signs of dyslexia in someone's speech. They
struggle to say long words, They misuse or mispronounced words often.
(31:42):
Do you have a couple, Yeah, yeah, yolk, dwarf, crown.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
I don't like when you say yoke.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
They mishear words, which leads to misusing words.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
I know that one's hard for you to answer. They
struggle to find the words they want to use.
Speaker 4 (32:00):
Yes, but I feel like that's common.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
Is that part of our ADHD too?
Speaker 4 (32:04):
Yeah, maybe they.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
Use them a lot.
Speaker 5 (32:07):
I don't think you do that really, but maybe it's
because I am used to you saying it.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
I don't know. I'd have to go back and look
for it. You have things that you say, but I
don't know if am is one of them.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
And like I say, I like you use but they
can speak articulately when speaking from the heart, but if
they need to explain something specific, they can really struggle
to articulate and make themselves clear.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
Yeah, that's why you love a script.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
I like a script in a moment if I'm having
to deal with something very specific.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
It helps you keep it concise, yes, and say what
you can.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Say what I need to say because I can go
I can yeah, or I have a difficult time even
recalling what I'm supposed to say because I'm so But
if I get to just speak from the heart. But
if it's something like I've been given a script, like
from a therapist or something, and it's very important that
you say it exactly this way, or you could enter
into a pattern or doing a dance as they call it,
with someone in your life.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
So that's why I like a script. They can use
a lot of language, but there's not always a lot
of substance to what they're saying. Do you feel like
you do that sometimes? Well you would call this a
word salad.
Speaker 4 (33:16):
Maybe because I like the way you do it. I
don't know, Oh cool.
Speaker 5 (33:19):
Word salid to me is when somebody is trying to
like avoid answering something, or when somebody's trying to sound
more eloquent but they're actually saying nothing. You know what
I mean, You're just animated and interesting.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
Oh dink you.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
The final thing is it can take them a long
time to.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
Get to the point. Yeah that one, yea yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But again I like the way you storytell.
Speaker 1 (33:42):
Yeah, I know I'm not going to change any of
this about me. These are just some signs. And of
course if you have any of these, it doesn't mean
that you have dyslexia. Yeah there or other views, Yeah,
maybe you have a different one. It just is I'd
never heard someone talk about how you may be able
to pick up on it or get curious or about
their if they have a disorder, based on how they
(34:06):
talk talk in their speech patterns. And now I am like,
this is why I say yoke and drawer and crown
wrong every time in poem and poem I do.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
It all started for me.
Speaker 1 (34:21):
And there's some words I avoid at all costs. I
can't spell certain things for the life of me that
I smell restaurant because I guess I grew up in
the rest I spell guarantees. Guarantee is actually not that
hard for either. But what about license or diarrhea?
Speaker 5 (34:38):
Oh, I can't do that. I like give up on those.
When I'm like trying to auto cracks, I'm like, whatever,
you get what I'm saying, like.
Speaker 3 (34:48):
And it can't. But it can't. Sometimes it doesn't.
Speaker 4 (34:50):
Get autocractic because it doesn't know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (34:52):
How can you?
Speaker 1 (34:53):
I'm obviously trying to spell nauja here, like, just get
me like I'm feeling. If I say I'm feeling in
you should know.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
I'm trying to say nauseous, so you should do it. Wait,
try to spell diarrhea d I. I can't do it either,
A DA R E h A H. I was gonna say,
h h A it's too r oh, it's too rs.
Okay d A D I A R R e h.
Speaker 4 (35:27):
No, Shannon's shaking her head. Okay h e S. Why
did they make it that way? Why did they spell it?
Don't know.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I wish I would recall this funny video I saw
someone mag the other day. I'm not going to do
it justice in telling back the details of this, but
just trust it was so funny.
Speaker 3 (35:43):
It was like, let me use restaurants.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Okay, restaurant rot like your brain is telling you, and
it's like your brain talking to you in this video
and he's like restaurant dummy like and it's like giving
you the ways to remember it, like Febrewary bite February.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
I can do restaurant, Yeah, restaurant. Garant can be difficult.
Speaker 5 (36:06):
Maybe I think I can do guarantee, But guarantee Okay,
g you, I don't have to.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
I'm looking at it.
Speaker 3 (36:13):
Okay, g u A r e in you know.
Speaker 4 (36:20):
Oh you're like, Oh, guarantee is actually pretty easy for me.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
Apparently not.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I see it in my head and it looked correct.
Speaker 5 (36:27):
That's the problem. It looks correct, but it's not. There's
something tricky about it. Okay, try again, I see it.
Oh I saw it too late.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
I didn't mean to. I saw it. Oh see I
put to t's but it has to ease. Oh my gosh, diarrhea.
I had nothing right.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
So like his the video I saw, he'd be his
brain would be like dar dar hey idiot.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Like.
Speaker 5 (36:56):
Na shew it's we should say na see us, see us.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
No cio us like his brain be like naco us stupid.
But oh license.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
And say lick lick and say like these are ways
we need to start remembering it because we need to
know how to spell license lick and say.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
I can spell license.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
I cannot ever, so I avoid it.
Speaker 4 (37:25):
Do you want to hear a new thing people are
doing in the dating world?
Speaker 3 (37:29):
Yeah? Why are you doing that? Because I'm single?
Speaker 4 (37:32):
Now?
Speaker 3 (37:33):
Are you telling me this?
Speaker 6 (37:34):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (37:34):
And I want to make sure you're not being caught
up in this because it's not good. No boyo, as
they would say, Okay, I actually just learned about this
this morning. Have you heard the term seagulling spell seagull?
Speaker 4 (37:46):
Just kidding?
Speaker 1 (37:48):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (37:49):
Now, yeah, okay, so this is a new thing that
people are doing. It's when you have no real romantic
interest in a person, but you still keep others from
him or her.
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Well wait, I don't really know how I feel about this.
This sounds it's not good, very problematic.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
Well, yeah, it's not good. It's bad. You don't want
to get caught in this saying yes, this is bad.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
You may like having control over the person or be
or be getting something that you don't want others to have.
So when I first heard this, I thought something different.
I thought it was like when you know, in middle
school and you're like, I like Brian and then none
of your friends could like Brian.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
Yeah, tell me you did that to him? Yeah, of course,
it's like you're not allowed to like him because I
like him. That's what I thought it was.
Speaker 5 (38:34):
But then Brian obviously doesn't like me, but nobody's allowed
to date them.
Speaker 4 (38:38):
That's what it was. But it's no, it's when you you're
I do not like amy, but I do things that
make sure nobody else can get to amy.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
So subconsciously do you like this person? Because why would
you be blocking?
Speaker 5 (38:54):
Well, why do people segel? This is what they say.
This is from an article on psychology today. So the
reason why do people sgull? They do this because they're
not ready to let go of you for whatever reason,
despite the lack of romantic interest in you. Maybe the seagull,
which is I don't know if you're the seagull around
the siegel.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
Well we're not revolved, but what are you talking about?
Speaker 5 (39:16):
Maybe the seagull can still get something from you, such
as companionship status or financially that he or she doesn't
want to lose. It can be about possessiveness and control
as well. The seagull may like the idea of keeping
you on the hook, keeping you from anyone else. It
can be an ego boost to have that type of
sway over you that whenever the seagull calls, you'll be available.
This can essentially be food for someone who likes to manipulate.
(39:38):
So this is more so like I know that I
don't want to be with you. It's probably why a
lot of people end up in situationships. I know I
don't want to be with you, but I get something
out of you, So I want to make sure that
you don't leave me and go be with somebody else.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Does that make sense?
Speaker 1 (39:54):
Do you think that that one person that we talk
about you did he segal me because it's like he
wasn't interested and then until he was, and it was
when he lost kind of getting I don't want people
to take this the wrong way. It wasn't like things
for me other than it could even be like a meal,
you know, oh, like I'm not saying things for me
(40:15):
in other areas, but like just the comforts.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Of a home.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
He was.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
In a car.
Speaker 4 (40:22):
Groceries, right.
Speaker 5 (40:26):
He was seagulling you, and he was manipulting. He was manipulating.
Because I don't want to speak too much on this.
If I'm gonna say this, we can cut it out
if you want me to.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
If you say too much, I'll start screaming.
Speaker 4 (40:37):
Try it.
Speaker 5 (40:40):
You were not able to be interested in anybody else
while he.
Speaker 4 (40:43):
Was in your scity.
Speaker 1 (40:45):
What was also interesting is like I didn't know what
would be going on with us, So then I got
on hinge and then things would kind of uptick in communication,
sharing of photos, like appropriate photos, like I'm not.
Speaker 4 (41:00):
Just naked photos on.
Speaker 1 (41:02):
No popor no, no, not even that, just more like yeah,
like every type of communication, sharing more of life day
to day. You know, I'd be like, wait what I'm
and then it was confusing, but yeah, we didn't have
a term for it, but now I guess we do.
Speaker 5 (41:20):
And it was segulling and do you remember there? It
was just kind of more early on when we were talking,
you'll remember this. I was like, it's you just need
to know what the deal is, so then like you
can act appropriately if he's trying to date you, you
need to know if he's trying to date you. If
he's not trying to date you, then you need to
know that. So then you can like be friends with
him if you if you want it, if you're okay
with being friends with him. Remember you asked him, like
(41:41):
what the deal is? I don't know how you said it,
but he sent you back this voice memo and you
sent it to me and I was like.
Speaker 4 (41:47):
This says nothing.
Speaker 5 (41:49):
That is worre salid It said nothing, and it was
so long, and I was like, there's so many words,
and like he it was like he was talking in
the clouds. But then it gave you enough where you
were like, well, he might be trying to date me,
but like he wasn't.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
Until I said a boundary, until suddenly he was like
in love.
Speaker 4 (42:06):
Then he wanted to marry you right for how crazy?
So I didn't know this.
Speaker 5 (42:12):
But they call it seagulling because it says it's similar
to the tendency of seagulls to grab food whether or
not they're hungry, simply because they don't want others to
get the food.
Speaker 4 (42:21):
Seagulls are not friendly. Who knew? So watch your back?
Speaker 3 (42:39):
What do you call a seagull flying over the bay?
Speaker 4 (42:42):
Bagel?
Speaker 3 (42:44):
Bagel? You knew that? Did you know that?
Speaker 2 (42:46):
Joker?
Speaker 3 (42:46):
Or did you just guess it? I just put it together.
You're smart. No dyslexia. There just kidding people with slex I.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
Didn't want to imply that you're plenty of people with
the selexi. You're smart. There's just a lot of who
the governor of California was talking about hus he was dyslexic,
and there was a whole thing of like people saying
he like our president was saying.
Speaker 4 (43:09):
That was a surprise. Yeah enough, what has he made?
Speaker 3 (43:13):
You know? That's good times? Good times? You wait, did
we look up the name?
Speaker 1 (43:17):
I want to know the name of the Disney movie
that was about dyslexia. So maybe we can figure that
out if people want to watch it. Okay, we've got
Maddie in the test. Is the name of that Disney
movie that I was talking about earlier? We looked it up.
So it's a short film. Apparently it can be very helpful.
I have not watched it yet. I only have heard
about it, but I'm going to watch it. But it
(43:38):
might be good for your kids too. Where can you
watch it?
Speaker 3 (43:42):
It's Disney, so I imagined Disney Plus that makes a short
film on Disney.
Speaker 5 (43:48):
For some reason, when I hear short film, I think
that you can't watch them anywhere. I feel like you
have to go to a film Maybe it's YouTube. Well
this is something I've made up in my head.
Speaker 4 (43:58):
I haven't. I don't know. Yeah, you probably can watch
it on Disney Plus.
Speaker 5 (44:02):
But when you hear like at the Film Festival the
best short Film, I'm like, where are people watching this?
Speaker 1 (44:07):
So it's a twenty twenty six Disney Plus animated short
film that depicts the experience of a ten year old
girl named Maddie with dyslexia. The film illustrates the anxiety
and challenges she faces during a math test, such as
letters shifting and merging, while highlighting her inner strength to
overcome these challenges. So this particular character, it does do that. Actually, Ah,
(44:30):
now that I'm reading this description. The guy I saw
talking about this online he loved this film and thought
it was so great and was encouraging others to check
it out. I think, and now, if I'm recalling correctly,
one of his frustrations was he wished they would have
made it more clear that it's not just about letters
shifting and moving around. I think when I explained the
(44:52):
movie earlier said they were talking about it. I think
they did touch on that. But that was his one little,
teeny tiny gripe with it as someone that is dyslexic himself. Otherwise,
he thought it was done, really well done.
Speaker 6 (45:06):
Well.
Speaker 5 (45:06):
I think your homework, My homework is read of Golden
Your homework is to watch this Maddie and the test
and yeah, and see if you if that would have helped, Well,
you didn't know you had dyslexia.
Speaker 6 (45:15):
As no.
Speaker 1 (45:15):
And when I found out a couple of years ago
the right when she told me, I just started crying.
But I was like I couldn't even help it. You know,
when she was administering the test to me, I already
was like, okay, some parts I was I did really well.
Speaker 3 (45:30):
So I thought, oh, well, maybe you know not.
Speaker 1 (45:33):
And then when she told me, it's like the floodgate
was opened, and it was just this relief because suddenly
it all made sense all of my various struggles. I
now had to answer to a reason as to why
certain things were difficult. And yeay, I figured it out.
Speaker 5 (45:53):
What would have been different if you would have known
that as a kid was maybe you would have more resource.
Speaker 1 (45:58):
School would have been different had I'm telling you I
think I don't. I am not exaggerating at all when
I think sometimes teachers just passed me.
Speaker 4 (46:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
I wish I could go back and talk to some
of my teachers, like in good Little Time Machine and
be like, did.
Speaker 4 (46:14):
I really did I really do that grade? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (46:17):
Like, were you just like she's bright enough?
Speaker 4 (46:19):
Fuck it?
Speaker 6 (46:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (46:21):
Obviously when you got into college.
Speaker 1 (46:23):
Yeah, so that's interesting you say that because I didn't
I only applied to one college and I actually didn't
get in.
Speaker 4 (46:29):
Well, you went there, so what happened?
Speaker 3 (46:30):
I went there?
Speaker 1 (46:31):
Okay, So out of high school, I just applied to
Texas A and M. I didn't get in, so I
had to go to the junior college in College Station,
which is Blenn. So I moved to College Station and
then I was so mortified that I didn't get in
that whatever that does to my brain, my especially in Adah,
she brain being under pressure and feeling any shame and
(46:52):
wanting to prove to people like it was almost like
I had a deadline. I had one year at this
junior college to get into A and M. Because I
wasn't going to spend two year there. Oh I mean,
and I know some people do that that's fine, but
for me, I was like, ugh, I couldn't believe it,
which looking back, I shouldn't have been that shocked. I
did not really prepare for college at all, and I
(47:13):
just applied to one place because that's where my sister went.
Speaker 3 (47:14):
So I was like, well, that's where I'm gonna go.
Speaker 4 (47:16):
And you had no doubt that you would get in.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
I just kind of thought I just didn't really think
about it. Nobody really talked about I didn't do college visits.
My parents didn't really talk to me about college. Again,
that's just where my sister went, So that's what I did,
and even my sister had to figure that out herself.
Speaker 5 (47:30):
So if you could go back in time, are there
colleges you wish you would have applied to or went
and visited?
Speaker 4 (47:37):
Now, like looking back, I.
Speaker 1 (47:39):
Mean, it would have been cool. But I loved going
to them, so I wouldn't change anything. But when I
see moms taking their kids on college visits, like, I'm like, oh.
Speaker 5 (47:48):
I well, I asked that because I wish I would
have put more effort into like looking around. Yeah, the
school I went to I went to because my sister
was there and I was literally the same thing. And
I was supposed to go to Alabama, but I got
scared because I heard this is how anxious I was.
Although I think this is kind of legit reason not
to go somewhere. I heard that in the sororities at Alabama,
(48:10):
they're like hazing. Is that they sat you on dryers
and had them shake and had guys come circle all
your fat that was shaking. What that was a big rumor.
I don't know if they really do that, but I
was like I had. Also, I had a lot of
body image issues back then, and I was like, that's
my worst nightmare. And I didn't really like drink or
party anything or anything in high school and so going
(48:32):
to a school like that, I was like, are people
even gonna like me?
Speaker 3 (48:35):
Okay?
Speaker 1 (48:35):
So, but as someone who rushed in college, which I
think you did, I did to you, but they wouldn't
have no well there. Also, I was at Texas A
and M, where I think there was rumors of hazing,
but I had in the fraternities, sure they had certain things,
but the sororities, there was zero hazing like that. And
I would put like A and M and Alabama in
the same category of types of schools.
Speaker 5 (48:56):
Well, if you went to Alabama and you were in
a sorority and they made you sit on a dryer
and circle your fat, let me know, because that's the
sole reason I didn't go to that school, and it
changed the directory of my life. However, I will say
it worked out for the best. I have a feeling
if I went to Alabama, I don't know if I
would have lasted or like I could have gone crazy.
Speaker 3 (49:13):
Yeah, if that happened to you, which sorority was it?
We want to know?
Speaker 1 (49:17):
Certainly it was not going to report, but it wasn't.
I was Kapitapagamma.
Speaker 4 (49:20):
What were you find you?
Speaker 3 (49:21):
Oh? Find you find you kkgama.
Speaker 5 (49:26):
But also I went to I was in the same
storty as my sister too, So that's one thing that
I wish that like I had, which my sister was
two years older, so I had time by myself. But
I do wish that I and that's why I wanted
to go to Alabama, as nobody in my family went there.
Speaker 4 (49:39):
I wish I had my own complete yes, yes, or
nobody knew me.
Speaker 3 (49:44):
And I did end up going to it.
Speaker 1 (49:47):
My sister was a kyomega, and that was my one
thing where I thought, I don't want to go somewhere
just because I'm a legacy, because I feel like they
were picking me. I wanted to see if someplace would
pick me just for me, and so I ended up
going Kapa, which my sister was for very sad about.
Speaker 4 (50:01):
Well.
Speaker 5 (50:01):
I think that was why I did find you, is
that my sister would have been I don't know if
we would have made it through.
Speaker 3 (50:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (50:07):
Well and she was still there. My sister had already left,
so it would were four years apart. Okay, well back
to my freshman year. I really dialed in and I
got a four point zero and then got into an
m I don't even know. That was crazy to meet
your first four point oh oh yeah, or it was
like a three. Let me back up, back up, you
can round up. I definitely just had a little revisionist
(50:29):
history there. I got a three point nine, which is
basically a few point but I mean that, Yes, a
three point nine, that's the highest.
Speaker 3 (50:36):
Yes. In high school, I had a two point something.
What is that face?
Speaker 4 (50:42):
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make that face.
Speaker 3 (50:44):
You made it right after I said two points.
Speaker 4 (50:45):
Something like because I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (50:48):
Oh no, I was not a good student.
Speaker 4 (50:51):
But also, being a good student doesn't mean you're not intelligent.
I think that's why that's my shock.
Speaker 3 (50:56):
I'm like, well, you're pretty until your point.
Speaker 1 (50:57):
If I had had the tools and the resources, I
wasn't a good student because school was hard.
Speaker 3 (51:01):
Yeah, I was very social. I could get by enough,
but I didn't read. I hated to read.
Speaker 1 (51:09):
I think eventually I figured out, but I didn't start
reading until I was an adult, Like I read books
now and this is my year.
Speaker 5 (51:14):
You have to qualify what you're saying. But you mean
like you didn't start reading books for fun until you're
an adult.
Speaker 4 (51:20):
Correct?
Speaker 6 (51:21):
But I.
Speaker 3 (51:23):
Also didn't read any of the required reading that.
Speaker 4 (51:25):
I thought you meant, like you didn't learn how to read?
Speaker 3 (51:27):
Are you kidding? I just about the cliffs notes for everything.
Speaker 4 (51:30):
Yeah, yeah, of course, I feel like that's pretty normal.
Speaker 6 (51:33):
Oh okay, Well, and I barely read those you read
them like right before the test.
Speaker 1 (51:38):
So math was difficult because also with dyslexia, there's and
I don't know how to say this because of my dyslexia,
I can never say it correctly. But it's like dyscalculated,
that's the.
Speaker 3 (51:48):
Math version of it. And I have that too.
Speaker 1 (51:51):
So yeah, I feel like some teachers are like, she's
got potential, so let's just send her on to the next.
Speaker 4 (51:59):
She's trying her best. But would you even say you're
trying or do you just kind of give up? Sometimes?
Speaker 3 (52:02):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (52:04):
I have little memory of memorizing things and having tips
and tricks and tools on how to remember things, because
I think I was just surviving in the moment because
by the time I got to high school and people
knew all their adverbs and nouns.
Speaker 3 (52:20):
Like I was like, what the you'reized?
Speaker 1 (52:25):
Yes, But I remember my freshman year of high school,
like there was like a pop quiz the first day
from our English teacher, mister Warren.
Speaker 3 (52:32):
He was very hard core e so work for NASA,
and I.
Speaker 1 (52:36):
Was very intimidated by him, and I think he was
frustrated by me. But we had this pop quiz and
I remember looking around and all these people they knew
exactly what they were doing, and I was like, what
the Like, I don't know what he was talking about,
and it was basic stuff and I failed the quiz.
But that's just like it didn't retain, like whatever I
had learned maybe in seventh eighth grade, they didn't retain
(52:58):
and come over with me to ninth grade and I
was like, first day of school, like I needed I
could survive.
Speaker 4 (53:04):
A pop quiz on the first day of school that.
Speaker 3 (53:07):
He did come on NASA. He didn't mess around.
Speaker 1 (53:12):
I think it was a disgruntled astronaut who didn't get
to go to space but he wanted to. Maybe I'm
not sure, actually I'm sure he was a lovely person.
I just was very, very intimidated by him, Like he
remember recalled my mom to talk to her. But then
I think I've told you before. My parents didn't really
have the bandwidth to worry about my school.
Speaker 3 (53:28):
They just didn't. My dad wasn't that involved.
Speaker 1 (53:31):
And then my mom was so busy trying to figure
out her stuff after my dad left, like trying to
build her career, and she was so busy, Like they
never asked for my report card or anything. So I
didn't have accountability at home. I had good parents, they
were involved, but there wasn't accountability.
Speaker 5 (53:46):
Do you think you would have if you this is
a hard question to ask, but if you would have
had the resources and you felt more confident in school,
is there a career you feel like you would have
gone into this guy's limit. There wasn't like something that
you wanted to do, and you're like, I could never
do that. Like maybe you wanted to be a doctor,
but you're like, I'll never be able to.
Speaker 1 (54:06):
I mean I thought about being a veterinarian for quite
some time because my uncle was, and obviously a and m.
That's then at some point you figure out that's off
the table. At some point you're like, probably not gonna happen.
I don't know exactly when.
Speaker 3 (54:21):
That revelation was, but I realized, like, probably not in
the cards for me. But I was like, if my
uncle Frank can do.
Speaker 4 (54:29):
It, I can do it.
Speaker 3 (54:30):
I can do it. But anyways worked out for you.
That's my journey.
Speaker 1 (54:34):
Yeah, I'm fine with it because it gave me. Who
knows what other qualities that gave me as part of
my personality, how I show up, who I am like,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (54:43):
The resilience factor. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (54:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (54:49):
At this point, we're not going to change it. I'm
just gonna drink diet Cokes and who cares. None of
this matters anyways.
Speaker 4 (54:55):
We're all gonna die full circle.
Speaker 3 (54:59):
Don't think that way. Don't think that way.
Speaker 4 (55:01):
You told us to think that way.
Speaker 3 (55:03):
Being satirical, Yes, is that selling s A.
Speaker 4 (55:12):
I are set her cool eye cool.
Speaker 1 (55:16):
We hope wherever you are, your loving life live in large,
and that you have the day you need to have.
Speaker 3 (55:23):
Bye.
Speaker 5 (55:23):
Bye
