feeling, right, Yeah, sitdown, shut up, and hold on.
You are prepailing for a week longtrip eight days to be exact,
or a conference where we are doingseveral speaking engagement fashion engagements, you know,

(00:52):
just the normal stuff fashion. Iwill explain more, and we are
at the stage right Yeah, I'llvery is the night before our flight and
my chair bill probably be destroyed.Well, this is our first time flying
with Shane's new wheelchair, and youknow, it's it's a really big process

(01:15):
to prepare a chair for flights,and we had like gotten that down to
a science with the last chair,and then we realized that with this chair,
we don't really know how everything isgoing to work. And like we
realized that we can't take the joystickoff. It doesn't come off of this
chair, which is wildly different processterrifying. See, it's just a high
stress situation along with all the normaltrip stuff like packing and getting Chloe ready

(01:37):
to go to her dogs. Thatare all the normal stuff. And then
we realized, like the amazing professionalsthat we are, that we will not
be able to hold a podcast whilewe're away, so we need to keep
up with that. Of course weneed to do on ten nights, so
we're doing it tonight in the midstof the mayhem, in the midst Wow,
So this is there's the title inthe midst of the men. Probably

(02:01):
not on that. It's like,what is that? Okay? Of packing
up for this trip has been householdand life chores, a lot of chores,
and they doubt me? Since damthis sounds like okay, It sounded

(02:22):
like, uh, what's that?Showed that me like, uh, it's
probably that soon the women in NewYork City And just like that you sound
like Carrie Bradshaw. Yeah anything.Are all men horrible? Are all men
horrible? Now? What? Anddid you doubt me? Think? Damn?

(02:46):
Rich? Sure of life and havinga house sucks the most. Wow,
these are some deep thoughts that you'rehaving. Is that while you were
playing Angry Birds on your computer?Hey, that would you like to give
him a back round? About thatjab that you just stuck it in my

(03:06):
heart? I don't really think itneeds much background. Shane recently downloaded Angry
Birds onto his laptop, which Ididn't even know was a thing. You
can play it on your laptop everybody, and boy, oh boy, has
Shane been playing it? And today, for a brief moment, while Hannah
was packing our suitcase, I thoughtit would be nice to sit in the

(03:30):
bedroom with herror, Yeah, tooffer pumbaragerie and jokes, yeah, and
levity. And while you were doingthat, you thought, oh I did
that? Why not just play someAngry Birds? And then I can see
in the mirror behind him, Ican see the reflection that he is playing
a game a computers Angry Birds.Yeah, and not something very verse.

(03:53):
What do you mean my website?You lord? I thought you were going
to say, not a game thatI would want to play, Like if
you were playing Zelda. Somehow Iwould be really mad. That's the verse
in your mind. Yeah, wellthat would be a betrayal. Okay,
Hannah, begin naming. Okay,laundry. We all have to do things
that keep us alive. Why areyou adding more intro to that? Keep

(04:14):
the household? People are bored.The sentences you're saying are so boring,
hurt in this in the evening.This is the evening shame. Yeah,
that you're getting tonight boring, goingon endlessly? Is that? What?
What do you mean? You're blendingin a ga? Okay, go ahead,
what charge do you find? Iam wearing a T shirt that is

(04:36):
the exact shade of purple. Asget on and on about the t shap
Okay, I said laundry, Ithrew out. You said throw out shores.
I threw out laundry. And thenyou begin to reintroduce the segment.
And do you think that laundry islike the top tier most annoy? I
am no, we're trying to rankthem, you know, so now okay,
absolutely not vacuuming? Is that moreor less annoy? I am more

(05:00):
really mediate? Well, you vacuum, you're coming along with the tone of
the vacuum. You know what Ithink is really really annoying? It might
value. I am a food lover, as are you. We love too.

(05:24):
We derive significant joy from the mealsthat we eat. But even with
that being true, the never endingfiguring out what will be eating? Oh
yeah for dinner or I thought youwere going to say like washing up after

(05:45):
cooking, which makes me like thatmakes me not want to cook. I
don't cook because I don't want todeal with the clean up. Yeah,
it rather yes, for me,it's just figuring out, like what do
we have? What can we makeon bardales that like make that easier.
But that's not every night. Yeah, it's not every night of your life.

(06:06):
Trying to figure out what to eatfor dinner and I breakfast. I
hate the haunts him at like threepm, I'm like, oh, we
don't know about our dinner is andwe have to figure that out rough.
Yeah wow, wow, that's theseare This is so interesting, Shane.

(06:28):
All right, I have another onegoing to the dentist. Oh I thought
we were doing like chort like I'mdoing household and life like like, okay,
how about having surgery, like Iwhere are those are that? I
mean, that's more rare. Okay, you have to get the dent going
to the dentist, you know,well that's not as frequent as washing up

(06:49):
pants. Less annoying life and thehousehold just saying it's hard to like comparison
didn't happens every day to send ithappens every six months. Would you rather
never have to get down and haveyour keys are fine? Yep? Or
never have to wash dishes again?Boom? See that everyone right there in

(07:14):
your eyes? Confusion? It ishow you know that confusion? That was
intellect at work. I'm gonna gowith the dentist one because just for the
future, Like right now, Iwould choose dishes hands down. But I
know like as you get older,you get more and more like tooth problems,
and if I could just never havea tooth problem, then totally I

(07:34):
would pick that of course. Okay, well the household choice, Shane,
I think that we're kind of runningout of this segment. We might want
to move on to the next one. Is what I'm not kidding You have
not yet told that what else?I was just talking over each other.

(07:57):
This is quite a night, everybody. Or next segment is This entire thing
was thrown together by Shane today whileI was packing, So please please don't
direct any complaints or comments at me. As you can see, the you
know, listing of chores was hisfirst idea. Pause, everyone, watch
you're listening, what do you saymy dream segment number two will be it's

(08:22):
not no, no, they justoff I have limited time. I had
to put together the podcast of alifetime. Jane is scraping the bottom of
the barrel and his segment is aheadand guess at hey, he is going
to be quizzed. It's an onlinequizz he found about the menstrual cycle.

(08:43):

the next segment that is there awhy? There's always a w Also,
my tith just slammed into the night. Your both Okay, what's what's your

(09:05):

to you that you created a wholething. I saw that and was that
periods and that down thin? Damn? Oh my god, how much do

(09:26):
I really know Harry Bradshaw about periods? Our period is really worth it?
Then our third segment is going tobe us doing a little hypothetical freaks.
That's been a bit about our upcomingfashion show. Wow, fashion show.

(09:48):
This episode it really does menstruation.Oh my god, fashion ship. Most
people just clicked off. I hopeyou're happy about that as we go into
this break and then I'm back tolearn everything I don't know about your period,
which is probably a lot. Iwould like to say you in the

(10:11):
viewfind year of the camera are listening, very small. Okay, everyone'll be
here. Back. Okay, we'reback, and we are ready to test
Shane on his knowledge of the menstrualcycle, as one does in a podcast.
I'm actually really excited because I thinkyou're going to do pretty badly.

(10:33):
Oh, thank you. That's lovely, and this is important for you to
know. There are twelve questions I'mgoing to ask you, and then there
are going to be four options.I just hope that I don't do the
stereotypical thing I'm like the husband doesn'tknow and continue bad periods, Like I
feel like I have a good handball. Yeah, did you look this quiz

(10:54):
up? And then like google theanswer. I read question's number one because
it was there when I open thewebsite, so I know that one,
but I do not know the restof them. All right, what counts
as the first day of a newmenstrual cycle? Your options are the first
day of a new calendar month,the first day of your period, the

(11:16):
first day after your period has finished, or whenever you can decide when you're
starting, when your own cycle starts, as long as you keep track.
That was bold. D is abold answer. My period is whenever I
wanted to know, it's the cycle, what it's it's what market site,
whenever I wanted to day. Thatmight be the right answer. Everyone.

(11:39):
It is on the first day ofyour period. Final lands here. You
are correct, the first day ofyour period? One for one? All
right? Best husband a word uponwhich of the following would be considered at

(12:00):
an abnormal length of time for aperiod to last? Oh? No,
oh no, here's your options.Two days, four days, six days,
eight days. All right, I'mthrown off. I think two days.
I think it normally is like fortyseven, so like eight feels close

(12:26):
enough. I'm saying forty seven,So two of the an outlier two.
Final answer loted in boom, bigred button. You are incorrect. No,
yeah, Shane, the answer iseight days. A typical period lasts
anywhere between two and seven days.There's you've never had a two day period?

(12:50):
No, I have long periods,So I threw Apparently I don't know
who I married the wrong person?What the heck that's supposed to mean?
Okay? Nah? Number three,what does the word amenorrhea mean? Oh
jesus, the absence of periods,having two periods in one month, an

(13:13):
irregular cycle, or starting your periodat eight years old or younger. I
would likely just said I don't thinkthat most people that have periods know what
this words means. So I don'tsure that bad? Not now, not
yet. What's the radiom amenorrhea?A is laugh? Have radio one more

(13:37):
time? Option is sorry and men? Oh okay. It's like, how
many times can I say this word? The absence of periods, having two
periods in one month, an irregularcycle, or starting your period at eight
years old or young A period?The absence of periods? You are correct?
Oh that's my Latin that I've nevertaken. Thank you. So two

(14:01):
out of three going strong, sixtysix percent. All right. Question number
four, we had to pause becauseour food for dinner just delivered. So
yeah, but we're back. Weeight dinner and now we're back for question
number four. So I been slightlydifferent positions, that's why. That's why.
All right, how long is theaverage menstrual cycle? Did we just

(14:24):
have this a like? Not twodays? Not? You know? How
long is the average menstrual cycle?Not period? Twenty six days, twenty
eight days, thirty days different orthirty two days? Oh my god,
you don't. They should have startedwith what is the difference between a period
and a menstrual thing? Is aperiod? Yeah? What were the options?

(14:50):
Twenty six, twenty eight, thirtyor thirty two twenty eight? Final
night? K How did you getlike? That was just a lucky guess?
That annoys me? Hey, here'smy line. If they can I've
always so, I've none. Notalways you were born with the knowledge I
didn't know. But in my adultlife I've known that a period is not

(15:13):
quite a month long, Okay,A menstrui of cycle is not quite a
month long. Okay. So thereyou go. I made my guess.
I stand by it. I wasyou were correct. Question number five,

(15:35):
which of the following is not asign of heavy menstrual bleeding? I have
everyone's enjoying this episode? Yeah,what is wrong with you saying? All
right? A bleeding that lasts fiveto seven days be bleeding that soaks through
one or more tampons or pads everyfour every hour for several hours in a
row. I made up the numberfour? Sorry, right, is not

(15:56):
a sign? Yeah? What's nota sign? Okay? Need to wear
more than one pattern of time orpassing blood clots that are the same size
or bigger than a quarter, whichis two and a half centimeters in diameter.
That feels that it would be aproblem. Are your big it feels
problem? Bag? So which ofthe following is not a sign? I

(16:17):
think they're about using them more thanone pad because that could be personal preference,
like maybe well it says that soaksthrough one or more tampons or pads
every hour. Now see oh,needing to wear more than one pattern at
a time? See two? Incorrect? The first one bleeding it lasts five

(16:41):
to seven days because that's like inthe average. All right, didn't hear
that one? Oh that's your excuse? All right? Next, My attention
level right now is almost on thefloor. I'm thinking about what we need
to pass. Question number six.Which of the following is a cause of

(17:02):
amenorrhea in women or people who arepreviously menstruating when and that's in parentheses one
period stopped for three months or more? Okay, what is a cause of

are previously menstruating? A low bodyweight which is ten percent or more under
normal weight, be polycystic overre syndrome. See stress pause. It's gonna be

In the meantime, all of youto take a moment to compose yourselves.

(24:37):
Can we apologize? I apologize onbehalf of my husband. I picked
that. We'll be right back.All right, everyone, We're back,
and we are now going to tellyou first about the fashion show that we're
going to be in because we're gonnaplay hypothetical freaks about that fashion show a
bit we're nerves. I mean,it's a fashion show. So you you

(25:00):
might have seen, if you've beenfollowing us for a bit, you might
have seen that we did a fashionshow back in September during New York Fashion
Week that was in New York FashionWeek. It was the Double Take Fashion
Show with Genetech sponsoring it, andwe worked with a nonprofit in Brooklyn called
Open Style Lab and they made allthe outfits and they were accessible and adaptive

(25:22):
and it was really really cool.And they are bringing that fashion show to
the cur Sema conference that we aregoing to this week. Well that did
you just make you just remember righthere this segment not at all associated or
sponsored by Junette. We were justtalking about the fashion show that we happen
to be doing with them. Yes, but they're not, they're not sponsoring

(25:44):
hypothetical freaks. In fact, they'reprobably like what you call it? What?
But this is a game that weplay when we're nervous or apprehensive about
something in our lives life, andwe just made fun of like how we
should make it awkward or terrible orbad ye, to make ourselves laugh and

(26:10):
nearby feel a bit better about it. Like if instead of walking the runway,
I decided to drag myself behind Shane'schair and just hold onto the base.
But you're not holding with your hands. Reattach your straps to be your
dress chair. You're like am fromLifeless. Yeah, gard and to make

(26:40):
it weird here the whole time downthe aisle, I'm yelling help. It
would be very unsettling. We shouldrun that by the fashion show director.
Yeah. Can we go for likea horror theme we're yelling for yard,
Yeah, we want the audience tobe disturbed. You know, I think
we really too. If I tastefullyand artfully okay, thread myself out of

(27:10):
my billet chair on the runway.Wow, because like you know how like
high fashion rams, Yeah, willhave like weird fashion shows, but like
they're all wearing trash bags or they'reall upside down, you know. Yeah,
we needed a moment of pizzazz.Yeah, or like one of celebrity

(27:33):
trips when they're getting an award thatbecomes a news story viral. So how
do we make the fashion show evenbigger? We have a disaster like that,
a fall, a horrific injury.So you have to pop up smiling.
I can't pop up. Well,I'll pop you up. You pop
me up, and you grin okay, and I'll give a thumbs up and

(27:55):
then we'll keep going. And thatwill make the news. Will one hundred
pers that make the news? Ithink that I'm going to change my outfit,
but not tell anyone else involved inthe fashion show. Like my outfit
is daffer, yeah, and designershave made it accessible and it's been like

(28:17):
you know, it's very thought out. I am going to make a last
minute game time haul. Could youfor comfort over over style over style?
Even though it is comfortable, butI am right, I'm I'm out there
and sweat pants, Oh my god? Maybe no shirt? Wow? You

(28:40):
know like I thought you were gonnalike draw on your outfit to make it
more like a last minute change.Yeah, like bedazzling it or something that
could be fun. Maybe you shouldbring up like a little brooch. Is
that what it's called a brooch?I don't know what that is, Like
a pin? Is it a broochor a brooch? Brooch? Like a

(29:00):
pin? You should bring a kin? Actually you have the one that says
grubs. But you should bring acouple of pins and put them all over
the front of your jacket for allyour favorite things Philadelphia Union, Pindauzel,
everything. Yeah, run idea.I have a serious idea. Though this
is serious. This is not partof hypothetical freaks. You know, I

(29:22):
don't particularly like walking the runway likethat was really stressful to me. I'm
afraid I'm gonna fall. I don't. I wasn't walking naturally. I felt
like I was. I felt likeI was plodding. I would like to
ride on the back of your chair, and I think that would be so
cute. That would be cute,like a chariot, Like I'm riding a
chariot. I should tell them thatI want to put like horse reins on

(29:47):
you so it looks like I hatewith hate mails in it, like I
want to make it definitely like Butthat was that was not part of you
made it freaky. I actually amwondering if maybe I could barefoot stand on
the back of your chair because Idon't like, you know, wearing shoes

(30:08):
or high heels or whatever, andI could just ride down the runway.
I just feel like most of youroutfit will be hidden. Oh my god.
Stand but to my bet that you'refacing, they'll see me from behind.
When you head back the other way, I'll be on full display.

(30:30):
It's not a bad idea. I'mwrapt in one outfit, so you can't
tell rare one value begins in thenext begin We need our own you know
what. We have to plan ourown fashion show. We have so many
great ideas that can't possibly all fitinto this one. I have one idea.
Come out and enter into song likeyeah, I see an audience and

(30:52):
I can't help it. Yeah,and I'm in this, impart this and
really emphasize the whey Yeah. Imean I wouldn't be surprised if that was
the song that was playing. Andpeople will hear my lyrics and they will
break down. Wow, hung byfashion and art. And we should do

(31:15):
a reel of you singing out.I feel like I could go viral play
into people's and then we sho needa twist ending that is that I really
am a mermaid? Okay, yeah, Wow, this has been the evening.
Even in junk yard Mayhem, itwas all over the place. I'm
feeling scattered. We didn't collect ourselvesnow, Like I thought we would come

(31:37):
