Speaker 1 (00:00):
I really thought that I was working out, but I
was sadly mistaken.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
That's how good about loving the man the way of
gott Intend like Fixspeare show Time Transforms.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
So once upon a time there was a video game
called The Week, and that video game ended up being
what I called my little workout machine. If you listen
(00:59):
to another episode, you you were understand that you know,
our son, he had some energy challenges, whether it was
conserving it or letting too much out, like he just
had energy issues. So this this machine called the Wi
really helped him out with a little bit, with just
(01:20):
kind of toning some of that down. Because even when
he played video games, his tongue used to stick out.
He used to be hopping up it down whatever.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
But for myself, song stuck out when you played video
games as well, So perhaps it.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Was it was it was inherited.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Or he was just duplicating you.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
It might have been inherited anyway, and you.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Had a lot of energy when you play video games.
You don't do it as much now, but you would.
Your whole body wouldn't get my whole body talk move
with the video game.
Speaker 1 (01:51):
So would you say that I'll be working out when
I play video games.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
I can see. Okay. So going back to the Wii, Yes,
when you first got it, I think you purchased it
with the mindset of it being a exercise tool.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yeah. I got the balance bar like.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
You had to get weight. It did a body scam,
uh huh, all of those things.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Oh yeah, we had. Yeah, we had a kit it out,
you know.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
So I think you purchased it with that mindset that
it was a virtual exercise tool.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
So at one time, I was playing baseball every day
like I was doing a boxing thing like I was.
I was usually to a point where I was really
literally sweating. I was doing the Uh so we're talking
about we sports stuff, So I was playing basketball like
I was using it literally to work out.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
But I thought there were some other things outside of
that with the balance because you had.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
When we had when you said when we was outside, No.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
I think there were other than the we sports things
that you're talking of. What what other I know you
bought all the things to go, But I'm asking in reference.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
To I don't remember what the we fit was, right.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
That's what I'm asking is that we fit that had
more to do with the balance being was more more
of a. It was. It was a peloton before peloton,
I guess, you know where you're kind of following an
exercise regimen and some of it was on the balance thing,
(03:45):
I believe. And then then you had graduated to more
of the game y type things like you said, we
sports and we resort. Those were the two other ones.
We resort and we sports, but we fit I think
was more serious.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Like you said, hey, I couldn't never for whatever reason,
for like I could never get it right.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
You know, it captured your weight, It captured, like you said,
your body scan and you know, challenged you with exercises.
I believe so it did.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
I'm looking it up now. Yeah, because it was tell
us being my reading. Yeah, cause we had to do like,
uh block soccer balls and power hula hoops and things
like that. Ski jumps. Oh that's where the ski jump
Joane was. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
So but no, it hit like more yoga type or
pilates type moves to deal with your balance and that
type of a thing.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah. I mean we're looking at right here. It's the
it's the it had the soccer her so yeah, it was.
It was. It was cool. It was pretty cool, but.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
But you thought you were exercising.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yeah, I really had that. I really had the exercise mentality.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
So your doctor told you that was not exercise when
they said when you would check off, do you exercise?
Speaker 1 (05:19):
You know, yeah, yeah, that wasn't.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
That was a week a day.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
That was That wasn't on the official.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Healthless But a lot of people did receive sports injuries
because of that game.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Oh no, I mean I don't. I don't think it
was we fit, but I think there was something about
the wei itself. Well, I mean, look, everybody had an injury. Well,
I hate injuries. That's what I thought I was. I
was working out. I had a rope ta to cuff
injury from shooting the basketball, like shoot yeah, like yeah,
(05:59):
my jaw heard from playing from from boxing, like yeah,
I was, how.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Did you hurt from?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I don't remember yourself. I ain't punched myself in the face.
I think I just kind of I thought I was,
you know, really dipping and dodging and whatever else and
not realizing it was you know whatever, it was all superficial.
It was you know, it was like little grays. Whatever
happened happened. You get to me.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
It is boxing, right, it happens.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
It happens, right, But I had injuries.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
From an unofficial exercise.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Yes, the we was I mean listen, I was dinging
four hundred and fifty foot home runs like I was
swinging for Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Yes, you were quite violent with the swings.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
I mean listen, I was killing it with that.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
You were killing yourself.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
I don't know of you're on board. Actually, I want
to go. I want to go. Pull it out.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
That's fine, pull it out.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
How many of y'all still have y'all we though? We
still have ours?
Speaker 3 (07:14):
No, I thought you got rid of it and then
brought it again.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, I mean just yeah, yeah, I mean but we
still have one though, Yes, the attachments, yeah, without the
balance board.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Yes, you still have the racket, the bat, the bet,
and I have one racket.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I don't think I had a bat anymore though, mm hmm. Yeah.
It's something. It's like some stuff back there that I
was like, oh, wow, we still got this, but it's
not in the video game. Ben Okay, yeah, somewhere else gotcha. Yeah. So,
but how many of y'all thought that, you know, doing
that we was real exercise, because I know I did.
(07:52):
It was fun, though.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
You're breaking out in the sweat just thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yo, Because listen, y'all, I had it down to a
science on how to spend the bowling ball with the
wrong hand, like I was. Yeah, I was. I was
a weak pro in bowling.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
I was pretty bit good in the three point shots. Yeah,
because y'all thought y'all had to jump up and down.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Y'all, I jump. I mean Maurice definitely jumped.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
He was on his tell me what you.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Right? Right right? Yes, I wasn't. I wasn't jumping. I
mean I did move my arms though, like I was
doing a road shot. Though.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
I figured out the no, you just flick your wrists.
I figured out the physics of it all. I was like,
oh that's all I have to do. Okay, I got you.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Yeah, she didn't sweat. I mean, but bowling, I can
do it sitting down, Yeah you could.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Yeah, the bowling I had to stand. I believe I
tried a few times seated from the in.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
But I'm gonna tell you all, though, that was some
of the best family game nights we had.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
I think beyond the we I'm gonna have to say
we had the dance whatever game on whatever the world
ball that that one was pretty everybody was dancing for
a while.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you you know what else that
I think people tried often, but it ended up becoming
just recy and I was garage band. Yes, now I'm
gonna be honest with you. I want it again, though
I'm sure you do. Yeah, I want it again. I'm
back in I'm kind of in my musical artistic space
(09:44):
right now. My mind is just going right now. So yeah,
so I think I'm very very I'm in a very
creative space right now. So so some of that, you know.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
His little fingers are moving around. He's so creative. Are
you playing the keyboard now?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
No, I'm just rubbing my hand across the desk because
it feels good with my thumb. That was that was
there about that? It was just soothing.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Okay, Yeah, I thought you was thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Because I want some water. I'm thirsty, okay, like you said,
like I'm sweating just thinking about it.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
You need you need some electrolyte?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yes, I need some milk.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
No, that you definitely don't need. I don't need you.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
To have any donk.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah I don't, and I don't drink milk like that anyway.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
But many reasons for that.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Yeah, I just don't like it. That's one of the reasons.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
And it doesn't like you.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'm sure, Oh yeah, I wouldn't. I couldn't tell you
because I haven't had a glass of milk and like forever,
I don't even remember last time I had a glass
of milk. But and on top of that sidebar, we
don't even have like milk milk. We'd be having water milk.
(11:11):
It is water milk, one percent water milk. It's not
whole milk. So that's what we have. So anyway, going
back to my exercise exercise, I want to know how
many y'all thought the wei was exercise, because it sure
enough was for me. It really worked me out.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
More than what you're doing now for working.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Out of bobbing my head right this moment. Yeah, because
if you'll, if y'a always see like I'm in agreeance
with myself.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
And it's really funny because behind you is a bobblehead.
So as you bobble, it bobbles's bobbling different ways, like
he's bobbling left and right and you're bobbling forward and back.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
The bibblehead that we have, it's one of the electric
ones that you're supposed to put in your dashboard. But
I just have it an the office and.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
It's electric.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It's solar, solar electric. Same. I guess, tomato tomorrow, I guess.
But anyway, kinectic.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I don't want people to think that we have it's
plugged in.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Oh no, it's not plugged in. Yeah no, we can
throw it out the window whenever we want to. I good,
But it's it's it's it's a bobble head of her uncle,
Bobby Ross.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Don't let everybody know that that's my uncle.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Okay, he's not the real uncle, he's not blood uncle,
but that's her uncle. He baby sat her on Saturday morning.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
I have two uncle, Bob said, sat baby sat me
on Saturday mornings. It's Bob Ross and Bob FeelA. If
you know, you know, mm hmm, shout out to w
h y y PBS television.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
And since you want to talk about me and milk,
I guess, and me bobbing my head, I guess they
electric company. Baby said you too, because your hair standing up.
Why are your hair standing up like that? Because you
was working hard with Bob Villa. No, yeah, I just
(13:20):
want to know. I'm just asking the question. Okay, yeah,
because your hair is standing up just like I'm sweating
over it? Is it because you were sweating with the
way you do, like you're thinking about it too well,
you don't sweat. You don't even I don't care if
you had walk three miles whatever, Like you don't sweat,
(13:41):
so it doesn't matter. You don't. You don't ever look
flustered or anything. The only time you do is when
it's uh. I can't even say when it's like one
hundred degrees outside because you I don't know, You're always
cool like a cucumber like you.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I get hot, I don't. I have beads of sweat
off of me. I do feel flushed to the skin.
I know I'm perspiring. I could feel sticky. My clothes
do stick to me.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
It must be a mind over matter thing because I
know you don't like it, so you must be. Your
mind must be like we will not let the water
out of our body. It must be because otherwise like
let let it come again. You you mentioned me right,
you're looking at me and like, yo, Maurice's like you
(14:35):
really look you're gonna through it over there, you know?
So yeah, evidently I need to find that that mind
over matter thing like you got going on. But and
maybe everybody can't.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Be like me, and we're opposite and we attract, so
you can be moisten moisten.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Right, So I'll just I got you. It's a really
bad deodorant commercial, Like it just sounds like a crazy girl.
That's why I'm gonna. I'm gonna go and get me
some baby about her.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Where are you finding that?
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (15:10):
I don't know, but uh, and you're gonna put it
on your face because that's where I see this what
starting to develop.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Yeah, no, really, really what it is is like I'm
just really dealing bad with my allergies, Like I'm really
having problems and all, honestly. Yeah. Yeah, So going back
to because the because so that was my other reason
why I'm doing things like the WE because I can't
(15:41):
do outside exercises, right, you know, so because of my
allergies being so bad.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
So that's what we Fit would have you do. You
would have the thing on and it would have you
like run and do things in place. Yes, okay, but
I know there was more to it. There was like
real exercise you're talking about again, these other things being
we sport and we resort.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
No, no, they no, they had the soccer on that
we fit. I just looked at it.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Okay, yeah, I just looked at but I got you.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
But no, they did. They did have the running in place,
now you say it. Yeah, they had all those type
of things. I think that that might have gone with
the soccer thing as well. So I don't remember because
because yeah, it was a it was a trail. I
think it was a trail or something.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Do you remember that vaguely?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
You know? So yeah, yeah, because we was racing against
other people or something.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yeah, had to pass them.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Yeah, yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
We talked fast as you run this little feet would
still go.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Boom boom right right, right right, I'm.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Running faster than it. Make your legs go faster like
your little circle feet.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
But yeah, I really want to pull the wee out,
all right. I don't know where we're gonna put it out.
I don't know, y'all. I mean, we gotta you need
the space, yeah yeah right now, I ain't.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
We ain't got no space.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Yeah, we got it outside, not in hours. I don't know.
They can't see what right here is. So it's either
going to be you know where it is right, or
it's going to be outside because we don't have none
inside of the studio office. Nothing like we ain't got
no way. No, that's not going to happen. So but
(17:26):
I do miss it, and I do wish that it
was uh were still. I wish sometimes we had the
space to do it so I could get back into
that because I was doing that often that and that
really did make me. There were times where I did
really feel it in my bones, my muscles and stuff.
(17:48):
But yeah, how many of y'all really considered that as
a workout though, because m hmm, I did it one time.
I really did. I really did. I took it serious.
I took it serious. But but like you said, like
(18:10):
you know, I don't some people did, because I remember
it now as you're saying it. I do remember some
people trying to make it official as like a a
move thing, like some along those lines, like there was
a whole move movement in America or something like that.
(18:32):
I think we was a part of that because I
think it was putting it in senior centers and all
that type of stuff as well. So so yeah, I
was one of those people that really thought that the
WEI was my exercise.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Program had WE classes at senior centers. WE bowling was huge,
but I think that the tough part was how many
players do you have? And then how did you charge
those things up? That was always an issue keeping the
the wines charged and calibrated because you know, that changed
(19:08):
with each player, so if you're tall, short, and whatnot,
so sometimes the calibrations were often if you're not patient
enough to get it recalibrated and reconnected, then took the
fun away. Yeah, And I think likewise with the balance board,
(19:30):
we had carpet, so I think that's also the part
that kind of made it.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yeah, that made it rough, too difficult, right, So yeah,
but how many of y'all, like I said, you know,
thought that the WE was your exercise because that that
was and don't let us have company? Oh my gosh,
that was Yeah, Yeah, I was. We were so we
playing people.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
We were.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Yeah, I get the fun. So but you know, I
thank you very much for listening today and let us
know what your thoughts are. We what's ast to you later?

uh block soccer balls and power hula hoops and things
like that. Ski jumps. Oh that's where the ski jump
Joane was. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
So but no, it hit like more yoga type or
pilates type moves to deal with your balance and that
type of a thing.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah. I mean we're looking at right here. It's the
it's the it had the soccer her so yeah, it was.
It was. It was cool. It was pretty cool, but.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
But you thought you were exercising.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yeah, I really had that. I really had the exercise mentality.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
So your doctor told you that was not exercise when
they said when you would check off, do you exercise?
Speaker 1 (05:19):
You know, yeah, yeah, that wasn't.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
That was a week a day.

the wei itself. Well, I mean, look, everybody had an injury. Well,
I hate injuries. That's what I thought I was. I
was working out. I had a rope ta to cuff
injury from shooting the basketball, like shoot yeah, like yeah,
(05:59):
my jaw heard from playing from from boxing, like yeah,
I was, how.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
Did you hurt from?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I don't remember yourself. I ain't punched myself in the face.
I think I just kind of I thought I was,
you know, really dipping and dodging and whatever else and
not realizing it was you know whatever, it was all superficial.
It was you know, it was like little grays. Whatever
happened happened. You get to me.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
It is boxing, right, it happens.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
It happens, right, But I had injuries.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
From an unofficial exercise.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Yes, the we was I mean listen, I was dinging
four hundred and fifty foot home runs like I was
swinging for Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Yes, you were quite violent with the swings.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
I mean listen, I was killing it with that.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
You were killing yourself.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
I don't know of you're on board. Actually, I want
to go. I want to go. Pull it out.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
That's fine, pull it out.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
How many of y'all still have y'all we though? We
still have ours?
Speaker 3 (07:14):
No, I thought you got rid of it and then
brought it again.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Yeah, I mean just yeah, yeah, I mean but we
still have one though, Yes, the attachments, yeah, without the
balance board.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Yes, you still have the racket, the bat, the bet,
and I have one racket.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I don't think I had a bat anymore though, mm hmm. Yeah.
It's something. It's like some stuff back there that I
was like, oh, wow, we still got this, but it's
not in the video game. Ben Okay, yeah, somewhere else gotcha. Yeah. So,
but how many of y'all thought that, you know, doing
that we was real exercise, because I know I did.
(07:52):
It was fun, though.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
You're breaking out in the sweat just thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yo, Because listen, y'all, I had it down to a
science on how to spend the bowling ball with the
wrong hand, like I was. Yeah, I was. I was
a weak pro in bowling.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
I was pretty bit good in the three point shots. Yeah,
because y'all thought y'all had to jump up and down.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Y'all, I jump. I mean Maurice definitely jumped.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
He was on his tell me what you.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Right? Right right? Yes, I wasn't. I wasn't jumping. I
mean I did move my arms though, like I was
doing a road shot. Though.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
I figured out the no, you just flick your wrists.
I figured out the physics of it all. I was like,
oh that's all I have to do. Okay, I got you.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Yeah, she didn't sweat. I mean, but bowling, I can
do it sitting down, Yeah you could.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Yeah, the bowling I had to stand. I believe I
tried a few times seated from the in.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
But I'm gonna tell you all, though, that was some
of the best family game nights we had.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
I think beyond the we I'm gonna have to say
we had the dance whatever game on whatever the world
ball that that one was pretty everybody was dancing for
a while.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you you know what else that
I think people tried often, but it ended up becoming
just recy and I was garage band. Yes, now I'm
gonna be honest with you. I want it again, though
I'm sure you do. Yeah, I want it again. I'm
back in I'm kind of in my musical artistic space
(09:44):
right now. My mind is just going right now. So yeah,
so I think I'm very very I'm in a very
creative space right now. So so some of that, you know.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
His little fingers are moving around. He's so creative. Are
you playing the keyboard now?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
No, I'm just rubbing my hand across the desk because
it feels good with my thumb. That was that was
there about that? It was just soothing.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Okay, Yeah, I thought you was thinking about it.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Because I want some water. I'm thirsty, okay, like you said,
like I'm sweating just thinking about it.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
You need you need some electrolyte?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yes, I need some milk.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
No, that you definitely don't need. I don't need you.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
To have any donk.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah I don't, and I don't drink milk like that anyway.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
But many reasons for that.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Yeah, I just don't like it. That's one of the reasons.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
And it doesn't like you.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
I'm sure, Oh yeah, I wouldn't. I couldn't tell you
because I haven't had a glass of milk and like forever,
I don't even remember last time I had a glass
of milk. But and on top of that sidebar, we
don't even have like milk milk. We'd be having water milk.
(11:11):
It is water milk, one percent water milk. It's not
whole milk. So that's what we have. So anyway, going
back to my exercise exercise, I want to know how
many y'all thought the wei was exercise, because it sure
enough was for me. It really worked me out.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
More than what you're doing now for working.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Out of bobbing my head right this moment. Yeah, because
if you'll, if y'a always see like I'm in agreeance
with myself.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
And it's really funny because behind you is a bobblehead.
So as you bobble, it bobbles's bobbling different ways, like
he's bobbling left and right and you're bobbling forward and back.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
The bibblehead that we have, it's one of the electric
ones that you're supposed to put in your dashboard. But
I just have it an the office and.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
It's electric.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It's solar, solar electric. Same. I guess, tomato tomorrow, I guess.
But anyway, kinectic.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
I don't want people to think that we have it's
plugged in.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Oh no, it's not plugged in. Yeah no, we can
throw it out the window whenever we want to. I good,
But it's it's it's it's a bobble head of her uncle,
Bobby Ross.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Don't let everybody know that that's my uncle.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Okay, he's not the real uncle, he's not blood uncle,
but that's her uncle. He baby sat her on Saturday morning.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
I have two uncle, Bob said, sat baby sat me
on Saturday mornings. It's Bob Ross and Bob FeelA. If
you know, you know, mm hmm, shout out to w
h y y PBS television.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
And since you want to talk about me and milk,
I guess, and me bobbing my head, I guess they
electric company. Baby said you too, because your hair standing up.
Why are your hair standing up like that? Because you
was working hard with Bob Villa. No, yeah, I just
(13:20):
want to know. I'm just asking the question. Okay, yeah,
because your hair is standing up just like I'm sweating
over it? Is it because you were sweating with the
way you do, like you're thinking about it too well,
you don't sweat. You don't even I don't care if
you had walk three miles whatever, Like you don't sweat,
(13:41):
so it doesn't matter. You don't. You don't ever look
flustered or anything. The only time you do is when
it's uh. I can't even say when it's like one
hundred degrees outside because you I don't know, You're always
cool like a cucumber like you.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I get hot, I don't. I have beads of sweat
off of me. I do feel flushed to the skin.
I know I'm perspiring. I could feel sticky. My clothes
do stick to me.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
It must be a mind over matter thing because I
know you don't like it, so you must be. Your
mind must be like we will not let the water
out of our body. It must be because otherwise like
let let it come again. You you mentioned me right,
you're looking at me and like, yo, Maurice's like you
(14:35):
really look you're gonna through it over there, you know?
So yeah, evidently I need to find that that mind
over matter thing like you got going on. But and
maybe everybody can't.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Be like me, and we're opposite and we attract, so
you can be moisten moisten.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Right, So I'll just I got you. It's a really
bad deodorant commercial, Like it just sounds like a crazy girl.
That's why I'm gonna. I'm gonna go and get me
some baby about her.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Where are you finding that?
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (15:10):
I don't know, but uh, and you're gonna put it
on your face because that's where I see this what
starting to develop.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Yeah, no, really, really what it is is like I'm
just really dealing bad with my allergies, Like I'm really
having problems and all, honestly. Yeah. Yeah, So going back
to because the because so that was my other reason
why I'm doing things like the WE because I can't
(15:41):
do outside exercises, right, you know, so because of my
allergies being so bad.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
So that's what we Fit would have you do. You
would have the thing on and it would have you
like run and do things in place. Yes, okay, but
I know there was more to it. There was like
real exercise you're talking about again, these other things being
we sport and we resort.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
No, no, they no, they had the soccer on that
we fit. I just looked at it.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Okay, yeah, I just looked at but I got you.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
But no, they did. They did have the running in place,
now you say it. Yeah, they had all those type
of things. I think that that might have gone with
the soccer thing as well. So I don't remember because
because yeah, it was a it was a trail. I
think it was a trail or something.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Do you remember that vaguely?
Speaker 1 (16:30):
You know? So yeah, yeah, because we was racing against
other people or something.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Yeah, had to pass them.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Yeah, yeah, that was.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
We talked fast as you run this little feet would
still go.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Boom boom right right, right right, I'm.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Running faster than it. Make your legs go faster like
your little circle feet.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
But yeah, I really want to pull the wee out,
all right. I don't know where we're gonna put it out.
I don't know, y'all. I mean, we gotta you need
the space, yeah yeah right now, I ain't.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
We ain't got no space.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Yeah, we got it outside, not in hours. I don't know.
They can't see what right here is. So it's either
going to be you know where it is right, or
it's going to be outside because we don't have none
inside of the studio office. Nothing like we ain't got
no way. No, that's not going to happen. So but
(17:26):
I do miss it, and I do wish that it
was uh were still. I wish sometimes we had the
space to do it so I could get back into
that because I was doing that often that and that
really did make me. There were times where I did
really feel it in my bones, my muscles and stuff.
(17:48):
But yeah, how many of y'all really considered that as
a workout though, because m hmm, I did it one time.
I really did. I really did. I took it serious.
I took it serious. But but like you said, like
(18:10):
you know, I don't some people did, because I remember
it now as you're saying it. I do remember some
people trying to make it official as like a a
move thing, like some along those lines, like there was
a whole move movement in America or something like that.
(18:32):
I think we was a part of that because I
think it was putting it in senior centers and all
that type of stuff as well. So so yeah, I
was one of those people that really thought that the
WEI was my exercise.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
Program had WE classes at senior centers. WE bowling was huge,
but I think that the tough part was how many
players do you have? And then how did you charge
those things up? That was always an issue keeping the
the wines charged and calibrated because you know, that changed
(19:08):
with each player, so if you're tall, short, and whatnot,
so sometimes the calibrations were often if you're not patient
enough to get it recalibrated and reconnected, then took the
fun away. Yeah, And I think likewise with the balance board,
(19:30):
we had carpet, so I think that's also the part
that kind of made it.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Yeah, that made it rough, too difficult, right, So yeah,
but how many of y'all, like I said, you know,
thought that the WE was your exercise because that that
was and don't let us have company? Oh my gosh,
that was Yeah, Yeah, I was. We were so we
playing people.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
We were.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Yeah, I get the fun. So but you know, I
