Dimly Lit and a Dinner Party

Dimly Lit and a Dinner Party

What happens when you step off the beaten path? Producer Sara shares her tales of exploring the immaculate landscapes of New Zealand and Australia, and experiencing the local culture. Her adventures bring stories of flat whites, bustling coffee scenes, and the joy of solo exploration, all while battling the familiar foe of jet lag. Sara's journey reminds us of the simple pleasures in unexpected places and the thrill of wandering through unknown streets.

Shifting gears, we dive into personal transformations and life's unpredictable twists. From experimenting with new health treatments to humorous reflections on self-talk, our conversation takes us through the significance of self-care, gratitude, and personal growth. A curious tale of a kayaker in Wisconsin who faked his death adds a touch of intrigue and sparks reflections on escape and reinvention. This episode invites you to ponder the importance of self-kindness and the humor woven into life's unpredictable tapestry.

As we imagine a cosmic dinner party with fascinating guests like the founder of Jin Shin Do, Brandi Carlile, and Mary Oliver, we explore hypothetical scenarios that lead us from mere survival to a fully-lived life. Through laughter and personal anecdotes, we reflect on the joy of new beginnings and the art of savoring each moment, whether sharing pasta from a cheese wheel or finding solace in a familiar song.

Welcome to the Cat and Moose podcast.

00:00:05.931 --> 00:00:06.833
I'm Cat and.

00:00:06.913 --> 00:00:07.394
I'm Moose.

00:00:07.394 --> 00:00:12.788
This is a true life podcast where we explore the quirks of being human.

00:00:12.788 --> 00:00:21.910
Hey Cat, hey Moose, hey Sarah, hi, sarah's back.

00:00:21.949 --> 00:00:24.574
Welcome back.

00:00:24.574 --> 00:00:30.728
I am going to assume that I know the minds of our listeners, and they have really missed you.

00:00:31.109 --> 00:00:31.931
Oh, that's sweet.

00:00:31.931 --> 00:00:37.072
I've actually really missed being here and being like a voice here.

00:00:37.072 --> 00:00:39.825
I think I was on the last one, but nope.

00:00:40.045 --> 00:00:40.866
Definitely not.

00:00:40.906 --> 00:00:41.046
Nope.

00:00:41.228 --> 00:00:41.988
Nope, I was in.

00:00:42.029 --> 00:00:42.429
Australia?

00:00:42.429 --> 00:00:42.930
I don't think so.

00:00:42.951 --> 00:00:43.633
But, you edited it.

00:00:43.633 --> 00:00:44.213
I did Edited it.

00:00:44.213 --> 00:00:44.975
Yeah, edited it, I was in.

00:00:44.994 --> 00:00:45.174
Australia?

00:00:45.174 --> 00:00:46.237
I don't think so, but you edited it.

00:00:46.237 --> 00:00:46.658
I did Edited it.

00:00:47.859 --> 00:00:48.381
You edited it very fast.

00:00:48.442 --> 00:00:51.026
We did one and then we didn't release it.

00:00:52.182 --> 00:00:53.146
That was the one before.

00:00:53.265 --> 00:00:56.884
And I was on that and then no one got to hear me Patrons did.

00:00:57.104 --> 00:00:57.787
Oh, patrons did.

00:00:58.643 --> 00:00:59.454
It's just interesting.

00:00:59.515 --> 00:01:07.152
The weeks that you're not here, because I'm such an analytical, technical person I watch like a Hawk our listenership.

00:01:07.152 --> 00:01:19.906
It's not true, but if I were, I could almost guarantee you that the weeks that you were not on, all of our listeners left like they were just leave.

00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:21.503
They did miss you.

00:01:21.823 --> 00:01:23.649
Well, I appreciate that I missed.

00:01:23.649 --> 00:01:24.552
I've missed all of you.

00:01:25.001 --> 00:01:29.230
What are your top three things from your trip overseas?

00:01:30.173 --> 00:01:37.426
Um, I got to go to New Zealand and Australia for two and a half weeks, um, as part of a tour and it was so fun.

00:01:37.426 --> 00:01:41.310
Uh, I was so very impressed by both countries.

00:01:41.310 --> 00:01:47.522
Um, I thought they were incredibly clean, or or at least the parts of the towns I was in.

00:01:47.522 --> 00:02:04.903
You know, of course, we were in metro, which can get very dirty, and a lot of the places there were a couple in particular that reminded me of San Francisco and then another that reminded me of New York and the trash and like just dirty concrete, like it didn't exist there.

00:02:05.444 --> 00:02:12.706
You know, those like cleaners that'll go like pass you by on Kroger, like just like mopping the floor and they kind of have like a squeegee in the back end.

00:02:12.706 --> 00:02:15.149
Yeah, they're cleaning their sidewalks with those.

00:02:15.149 --> 00:02:52.441
Wow, like it is so clean there and I was just like I felt like the country was literally in the future, but also like they felt just so advanced and we had a couple other local personnel that toured with us throughout and so it was fun to get to know them, just like on a personal level, and I was able to say you know, these are some things I've noticed and they're like, well, we've had, like we're such a new country, we've had time to, we've been able to observe how it's been done and and you know, uh, how to do infrastructure, how to do you know whatever and um, anyway, it just from like a visual side, you could really like see that.

00:02:52.581 --> 00:02:58.151
It was just very evident I find it so fascinating and so encouraging.

00:02:58.151 --> 00:03:03.751
Inspiring when I see humans observing things and then making things better.

00:03:03.751 --> 00:03:05.054
Yeah, like that.

00:03:05.054 --> 00:03:11.550
Just that to me is so inspirational and it's like it's how we got from Stonehenge to skyscrapers.

00:03:11.550 --> 00:03:20.486
You know, it's like we've just kind of evolved as a society and technology and all of that, and it's like getting to experience it real time like that I bet that was really cool.

00:03:20.486 --> 00:03:21.061
It was cool.

00:03:21.200 --> 00:03:35.280
And you know it's all like like I mean, I wasn't going to a third world country, obviously, like they're very well advanced and everything, and so it was like the stuff that we're used to here um just felt like a notch better, you know, a notch up, I don't know anyway.

00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:39.967
Um, so that I was actually did not see any animals.

00:03:39.967 --> 00:03:41.408
I saw lots of birds.

00:03:41.408 --> 00:03:49.509
They were really cool birds, really amazing and funny birds, but I opted out on the zoo trip.

00:03:49.509 --> 00:04:01.026
Everybody got to go to Sea Verbon Zoo, oh cool, and it was just a day that was like in the 90s and super humid and I was like it's going to be fun.

00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:05.320
But I also am like just going to take care of myself and like have a day off.

00:04:05.320 --> 00:04:13.712
And that was actually the day that I was supposed to be editing that one episode and we ended up scrapping it and I got like the whole day off.

00:04:13.712 --> 00:04:14.575
It was so fun.

00:04:14.575 --> 00:04:18.404
So I ended up just wandering around and like that was just like fun.

00:04:18.404 --> 00:04:19.127
It was fun.

00:04:19.127 --> 00:04:30.110
I like traveling solo and it's fun to just go explore and like do things on my own and just like have four or five, six hours to just wander and I loved it.

00:04:30.290 --> 00:04:31.713
Yeah, I really had so much fun.

00:04:31.713 --> 00:04:38.021
Is there anything memorable about anything that you ate or drank Everything.

00:04:38.261 --> 00:04:40.704
Their beer scene is phenomenal.

00:04:40.704 --> 00:04:45.973
They have got it going on as far as draft beers and coffees and nuts.

00:04:45.973 --> 00:04:46.293
There.

00:04:46.293 --> 00:04:48.463
They don't even really have Starbucks.

00:04:48.463 --> 00:05:00.822
There's like four or five you know in the whole country Like and so, um, I had flat whites just all day long and um, yeah, everything's just kind of like espresso drinks.

00:05:00.822 --> 00:05:01.786
They don't like I.

00:05:01.786 --> 00:05:02.449
It was funny.

00:05:02.449 --> 00:05:11.141
I was trying to order, um, like what we would get here, like one of those you know, kind of gallon of of drip coffee from Starbucks, if you're trying to.

00:05:11.141 --> 00:05:25.370
You know, serve 10, 15 people and I was trying to explain that to somebody and they were like a gallon, like they were just so shocked that we would do that Of course they don't do drip coffee Like it's.

00:05:25.572 --> 00:05:28.384
If you want that, you're getting an Americano, or you know.

00:05:28.384 --> 00:05:30.365
Anyway, well, welcome back.

00:05:30.406 --> 00:05:33.476
Thank you, thank you, guys, it's really really nice Welcome.

00:05:33.598 --> 00:05:35.386
Still got like a whole bunch of jet lag.

00:05:35.386 --> 00:05:40.129
I feel like I don't even know what time it is right now, but I feel like between like two and five o'clock.

00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:43.041
You're like I'm gonna die if I don't lay down.

00:05:43.041 --> 00:05:49.678
Look at what we did there.

00:05:50.019 --> 00:05:52.906
Okay, let's talk about postino postino.

00:05:53.065 --> 00:05:54.509
Yes, let's talk about postino.

00:05:54.509 --> 00:05:56.713
We are going to an early dinner tonight.

00:05:56.713 --> 00:05:57.415
We are.

00:05:57.875 --> 00:06:02.990
We are now senior citizens, uh this is not news to our listeners.

00:06:03.031 --> 00:06:31.685
No, it is not we are senior citizens and uh, I found this new restaurant in 12 South area of Nashville called Postino 12 South and, by the way, they have locations in lots of cities, so check it out but they have like charcuterie boards and wine and all these little small bites and tapas and we we were fighting about is it fancy, right?

00:06:31.685 --> 00:06:37.781
Which is always sort of a question that we ask when we are going out.

00:06:37.781 --> 00:06:42.021
Well, I ask because I never want to be underdressed, right, right?

00:06:42.170 --> 00:06:43.274
That's always been a thing.

00:06:43.415 --> 00:06:43.516
It's.

00:06:43.516 --> 00:06:51.779
I mean, you have known me for 8 million years and, like I melt down sometimes when I can't find the right thing to wear.

00:06:51.779 --> 00:06:56.100
Yeah, so we look at the pictures and I say to you, what are you wearing?

00:06:56.100 --> 00:07:02.122
And you said this, and I said okay, and you go, what it's not fancy?

00:07:02.122 --> 00:07:12.264
And I said I have seen videos on their Instagram and it feels a little bit there's dark, it's darkly lit, wait, dimly lit.

00:07:14.410 --> 00:07:15.533
It's dimly lit.

00:07:15.533 --> 00:07:16.918
It's dimly lit, so am I.

00:07:18.250 --> 00:07:28.062
Well, it's dim and candle lit is actually what it is, and to me that meant oh no, what am I going to wear?

00:07:28.062 --> 00:07:34.892
I can't just wear like a t-shirt, and you said something that I thought was fantastic.

00:07:34.892 --> 00:07:35.894
Would you share what that was?

00:07:35.915 --> 00:07:37.598
Yes, I said that I.

00:07:37.598 --> 00:07:44.002
I am not going to change anything I'm wearing except for my shirt, and I'm going to change from a t-shirt to a V-neck.

00:07:44.002 --> 00:07:44.850
Yeah, yeah, you are.

00:07:45.031 --> 00:07:52.442
And I, I love this, that at this point in our lives, and I love this At this point in our lives, from crew neck to V-neck.

00:07:52.442 --> 00:07:54.165
That's the jump.

00:08:11.829 --> 00:08:14.338
Yeah, it's really going from day to night, like we're not changing lipstick color, we're not switching perfumes that are smokier.

00:08:14.338 --> 00:08:18.370
No, we're going from crew neck to v-neck because in my most comfortable being like, when I feel the most comfortable wearing clothes on this planet, I'm wearing the outfit that I have on right now.

00:08:18.370 --> 00:08:31.363
I'm wearing tennis shoes that are very sturdy, I'm wearing some little socks that are very comfy and, um, my little James Purse pants in a t-shirt, like that's just how I like to dress and the cat fit.

00:08:31.363 --> 00:08:32.311
That's the cat fit.

00:08:32.311 --> 00:08:36.792
Yeah, and and it's neither here nor there, I'm not trying to make a statement, I'm just trying to enjoy.

00:08:36.792 --> 00:08:40.160
What does it feel like in my body to be dressed the way?

00:08:40.160 --> 00:08:41.851
That is the most comfortable yeah.

00:08:42.332 --> 00:08:55.298
And so, in order to give a little bit of effort to Postino and its other constituents, I I am willing to sacrifice and change my crew neck to a V-neck, and that's as far as I'm going to go.

00:08:55.539 --> 00:08:57.024
I like it Again.

00:08:57.024 --> 00:08:58.610
This is about being ourselves.

00:08:58.610 --> 00:09:02.837
Yes, and that's the thing, right Is I want I'm also.

00:09:02.837 --> 00:09:14.253
I don't want to sit there with super tight jeans around my belly where I can't have another piece of bread and some more olives I want to make room.

00:09:14.433 --> 00:09:24.844
Yeah, and, and, and I feel like my the point that I made was pretty spot on, I think, and going like the nicest thing on their menu is a sandwich sandwich.

00:09:24.844 --> 00:09:36.479
But I mean, like really they have in that I think they call it crostini's like a toasted piece of bread.

00:09:36.479 --> 00:09:38.703
Yeah, so it's basically a sandwich shop.

00:09:39.591 --> 00:09:39.931
I don't.

00:09:39.931 --> 00:09:41.695
I think it, yeah.

00:09:41.695 --> 00:09:49.937
So I think it's supposed to be snacky and whiny, and but I think, as the, as the as the sun sets.

00:09:50.918 --> 00:09:52.559
Which happens at 445 now.

00:09:52.880 --> 00:09:55.904
Yeah, like is there an expectation?

00:09:55.904 --> 00:09:57.951
Is it really the question?

00:09:57.951 --> 00:10:00.799
Like, do I need a smoky eye to go into Postino?

00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.999
Yeah, yeah, no, no, no no no.

00:10:04.129 --> 00:10:09.894
I think the answer is no Okay, and I think that for you, the answer might be yes.

00:10:09.913 --> 00:10:13.798
Ooh, that might feel better for you, the answer might be yes, that might feel better for you and your body.

00:10:13.837 --> 00:10:22.405
Like I would be curious, like when you think about how do I have the least amount of anxiety going into Postini, is that because you feel really good about how?

00:10:22.426 --> 00:10:23.187
you're dressed.

00:10:23.187 --> 00:10:28.157
I love that it's now called Crustini.

00:10:28.157 --> 00:10:29.200
She said Postini.

00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:37.011
Oh man, this is getting good y'all, Isn't it it?

00:10:37.011 --> 00:10:37.351
It is postini.

00:10:37.351 --> 00:10:40.717
I thought it was post up stano well, I who knows.

00:10:40.798 --> 00:10:43.302
We'll have to ask the people who work there how do?

00:10:43.302 --> 00:10:43.583
You?

00:10:43.583 --> 00:10:46.995
How do you say the name I've got it right of your shitty restaurant?

00:10:46.995 --> 00:10:47.917
It's post Postino.

00:10:48.477 --> 00:10:57.899
Oh, you said Postini, which is great Cause it's like martini Maybe that's what's on my mind, or crostini, crostini.

00:10:59.822 --> 00:11:00.384
Moving along.

00:11:00.384 --> 00:11:05.922
Okay, how are your hundred days of being your most authentic self going?

00:11:06.230 --> 00:11:07.770
Well, thanks for asking.

00:11:07.770 --> 00:11:12.854
I don't know exactly what day it is, but it's going very well.

00:11:12.854 --> 00:11:13.995
I have.

00:11:13.995 --> 00:11:18.817
I'm just questioning everything in a positive way.

00:11:18.817 --> 00:11:44.395
I'm going oh, look at that, I was supposed to go have drinks with a friend and kind of catch up and I knew by like 10, I wasn't going to be able to pull it together and I had showered, I.

00:11:44.395 --> 00:11:47.482
I looked, okay, it was nothing to do with that, it was just I.

00:11:47.482 --> 00:11:56.105
I just couldn't do it, and so I was just honest with that person and said for mental health reasons, I may need to reschedule.

00:11:56.105 --> 00:12:03.299
And that person was very kind, and so I'm just trying to put action to what it is that I need.

00:12:03.400 --> 00:12:04.363
Yeah, Good for you.

00:12:04.363 --> 00:12:05.083
That's awesome.

00:12:05.083 --> 00:12:06.610
How are you?

00:12:06.610 --> 00:12:07.894
I'm doing okay.

00:12:07.894 --> 00:12:10.457
I um was really.

00:12:10.457 --> 00:12:14.865
I was really impacted by something that you did for me this week.

00:12:14.865 --> 00:12:18.995
Let's tell everyone, let's tell the world.

00:12:18.995 --> 00:12:20.057
Is that okay with you?

00:12:20.099 --> 00:12:28.183
Yeah, I was talking about some changes that I am implementing in my life.

00:12:28.309 --> 00:12:31.177
I'm about to undergo a new treatment.

00:12:31.177 --> 00:12:56.219
It's called PRP, it's called plasma rich protein, protein rich plasma I think is actually what it is, and it is something that is going to potentially help my foot heal, and I've been looking for anything that is not surgery to help my foot heal, and so they basically take your body's plasma and they inject it in different areas of the foot and that helps the foot heal.

00:12:56.219 --> 00:13:24.874
It's kind of like giving the foot like a super green drink or something like that, and so, in order for that to work, there are a handful of things that I need to do to promote healing best, and that is not drinking alcohol, that is not using all of my favorite CBD oils that I use, and that is, um, you know, just changing some of my day to day habits, like my eating habits.

00:13:24.874 --> 00:13:32.812
It's very, very helpful, um, in general, but also with this treatment, to eat plant-based and I'd like to get a fried chicken sandwich from McDonald's.

00:13:32.812 --> 00:13:39.115
You know sandwich sandwich, and so you like McDonald's if you're going to choose fried chicken, yeah.

00:13:39.756 --> 00:13:45.282
Well, I mean, if I'm going to choose fried chicken, I'd choose Popeye's, but the fried chicken sandwich from McDonald's is my favorite.

00:13:45.282 --> 00:13:57.524
And so all of that to say is, I was kind of processing some of that with you and I was being really hard on myself and you were like, um, I would like you to listen to this.

00:13:57.524 --> 00:14:15.013
You said I have a song for you, and so I clicked and listened and I thought it would be some, like you know, alicia Keys or something like really, but I mean something like really kind of sophisticated and and and it was a ccm song, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:14:15.013 --> 00:14:16.936
And and, which is awesome.

00:14:16.936 --> 00:14:18.739
I love the genre that we work in.

00:14:18.739 --> 00:14:29.956
Yeah, and in my real life, I don't really have anybody sending me christian music songs to encourage me like, that's just not, it is rare for me to do?

00:14:30.096 --> 00:14:39.833
Yeah, and so I listened to the song and I was like I wrote you back and I said, oh my God, did you actually send me a Christian music song to encourage me?

00:14:39.833 --> 00:14:41.778
Yeah, and you said yes.

00:14:42.700 --> 00:14:45.552
Well, because the message of the song is so good.

00:14:45.552 --> 00:15:01.870
It's so good and the message is to be kind to yourself, to yourself, and it's basically saying like, if god can be kind to you, I think you can be kind to you, right, and what a fantastic concept it's like.

00:15:01.870 --> 00:15:16.032
If the creator of the universe can treat me with kindness, who am I to treat myself unkindly, you know, and it really it made a really big impact on me, so much so that, like my paper, what if you were?

00:15:16.072 --> 00:15:17.657
like pull up your shirt.

00:15:17.657 --> 00:15:18.700
I got a tattoo.

00:15:19.091 --> 00:15:23.042
I got a tattoo on my navel that says please be kind to me.

00:15:23.042 --> 00:15:29.418
But I said be kind to yourself Like it's even it's like on my podcast notes this week.

00:15:29.418 --> 00:15:59.022
So I just really wanted to thank you, not only for our coaching session, also for, um, your encouragement for me to be kind to myself, so much so that I was in class the other night and we were leaving the building and I had locked a door that didn't need to be locked yet, and so I said to my friend I was like, oh my gosh, this smart, wonderful, beautiful, fantastic woman has forgotten your keys to unlock the door.

00:15:59.022 --> 00:16:02.139
And he said to me he said I really appreciate how you spoke about yourself.

00:16:02.160 --> 00:16:02.402
Cause.

00:16:02.643 --> 00:16:15.995
I chose to speak about myself in a way that was not derogatory, so that's great, yeah, so, speaking of pulling back on the alcohol and all the things, when does this protocol begin?

00:16:15.995 --> 00:16:18.100
Tomorrow, okay, yeah, tomorrow.

00:16:18.100 --> 00:16:19.243
So we're going to get crazy.

00:16:19.471 --> 00:16:23.020
We're going to get nuts and postino in our V-necks.

00:16:25.051 --> 00:16:25.933
I'm suddenly worried.

00:16:25.933 --> 00:16:28.461
There's not going to be enough food to eat at this place.

00:16:29.190 --> 00:16:35.782
Oh, no, no, no, just like sandwich boards Pretty much.

00:16:35.782 --> 00:16:37.125
Wait a minute.

00:16:37.125 --> 00:16:39.255
I said I haven't looked at the menu.

00:16:39.255 --> 00:16:41.914
I saw the place, it looked good and you wrote back.

00:16:41.914 --> 00:16:46.330
Kat, you said the menu looks amazing and it does.

00:16:46.490 --> 00:16:46.791
And.

00:16:46.831 --> 00:16:50.038
I had you wine drinkers in mind at this place.

00:16:50.058 --> 00:16:51.062
Well, one of the things, wineos.

00:16:51.062 --> 00:16:59.985
Yeah, one of the things that they said is they said we celebrate wine for the sacred moments and the casual moments of life.

00:17:00.831 --> 00:17:03.778
Which basically means, if you're an alcoholic, come here.

00:17:03.778 --> 00:17:07.898
No, no, you don't actually, that's not how I took it.

00:17:07.898 --> 00:17:11.078
But okay, you don't actually need any reason to drink.

00:17:11.078 --> 00:17:13.094
Come here, we'll celebrate it all with you.

00:17:13.233 --> 00:17:18.077
Yeah, that's fair, fair enough, I mean, that's also the airport's rules.

00:17:18.470 --> 00:17:21.155
I mean, AI wrote that really well.

00:17:22.919 --> 00:17:25.711
Postino, postino, postino.

00:17:25.711 --> 00:17:28.261
You and your AI assistant did great.

00:17:30.449 --> 00:17:34.141
Okay, did you guys hear about this kayaker in Wisconsin?

00:17:34.269 --> 00:17:35.916
Yeah, the guy that faked his own.

00:17:36.329 --> 00:17:37.556
Yeah, I saw that yeah.

00:17:38.430 --> 00:17:40.394
What in the world?

00:17:40.394 --> 00:17:55.217
I've watched a bunch of news clips about this and I want to like yell at every reporter because they're like oh, so you know, know, he went, and now he's in eastern europe potentially, and faked his own death.

00:17:55.217 --> 00:17:57.382
But there's two questions I have.

00:17:57.382 --> 00:17:59.788
Number one why?

00:17:59.788 --> 00:18:08.150
Like nobody is talking about why, right, and every article I can find simply says, um, he had personal reasons.

00:18:08.150 --> 00:18:09.676
And I'm like so do I?

00:18:09.737 --> 00:18:15.137
right, I've got lots of personal reasons a lot of personal reasons to completely fake my own dad.

00:18:15.157 --> 00:18:32.021
Me too, right wait yes okay, go and then, secondly, my question is they talked about how he went, rode his e-bike, flipped the canoe, got rid of the phone, rode his e-bike to madison and then made his way to canada.

00:18:32.021 --> 00:18:36.337
But how did he get from canada to eastern europe?

00:18:36.337 --> 00:18:36.679
Like?

00:18:36.679 --> 00:18:37.359
Is he on?

00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:38.702
Like a barge ship?

00:18:38.702 --> 00:18:44.367
Like nobody's filling in that gap for me either, because he probably wouldn't be allowed to fly, would he?

00:18:44.367 --> 00:18:45.852
And I don't?

00:18:45.932 --> 00:18:51.423
know that anybody would know Like let's just, let's just say, let's, let's fake my death right now.

00:18:52.351 --> 00:18:56.402
So let's say that I start now faking my death.

00:18:56.402 --> 00:19:10.730
So I get on my e-bike and I go to Percy Priest and I get in a kayak and I take my phone in the kayak and I paddle, paddle, paddle, paddle, paddle and I flip it over and I swim out and I make it look like I drowned.

00:19:10.730 --> 00:19:23.470
And then I get on the e-bike and I drive to canada I mean, I've still got my driver's license, my passport, my, my, everything, like I bet he, I bet nobody knew anything was wrong when he well, that's true.

00:19:23.510 --> 00:19:31.845
When he got to canada, they said now they can look back and see that they did, but maybe he already had the flight booked.

00:19:31.845 --> 00:19:36.117
Yeah, I think he did, but then why can't they find him?

00:19:36.117 --> 00:19:42.479
So, anyway, have you seen that he's done videos where he's saying this is my proof of life?

00:19:42.479 --> 00:19:43.500
I am alive.

00:19:43.520 --> 00:19:44.542
I haven't seen that part.

00:19:44.542 --> 00:19:45.732
What's funny is the only thing.

00:19:45.732 --> 00:19:47.036
I only way I knew about it.

00:19:47.036 --> 00:19:58.304
I was in Australia when all this went down and I I think a video came across my Instagram feed and it was like a video of somebody interviewing him.

00:19:58.304 --> 00:20:01.378
It was like I don't know if it was like in LA or something, but this was like.

00:20:01.378 --> 00:20:20.333
I think it was like a year prior to all of this happening and he was asking this person who was maybe like someone who could tell the future, or something like this oh, it was like it was like, think, like on one of the beach fronts and people are like roller skating by and like that kind of thing.

00:20:20.353 --> 00:20:33.819
He's like on a bike and someone he asks questions about, like faking your own death or like getting moving moving to another country and like it was like this whole thing and this was all on video a year prior and I'm like what is this about?

00:20:34.040 --> 00:20:41.172
that's how I was introduced to the story so wait, he was asking who about these things it was almost like he stopped at this.

00:20:41.531 --> 00:20:52.513
um, it was like a let's call her a fortune teller that was working on the beach at in la and he was riding his bike by and stopped and asked can you tell me the truth?

00:20:52.513 --> 00:20:54.116
Like if I did this, does it?

00:20:54.116 --> 00:20:58.494
It was like, and that was on video Huh, I have to pull it up.

00:20:58.595 --> 00:21:01.021
Yeah, I'm probably just talking myself into a hole right now.

00:21:01.021 --> 00:21:04.215
It sounds very much like when I think of Venice beach.

00:21:04.576 --> 00:21:06.141
Yeah, that's what I think.

00:21:06.721 --> 00:21:17.020
I think of like the the drum people and I think of like yeah, that feels very possible on Venice beach that it's like hey, you look like a cool know it all lady.

00:21:17.020 --> 00:21:19.394
Let me ask you about your opinion about this thing.

00:21:19.575 --> 00:21:22.871
So yeah, I don't think you're you're talking to yourself in a whole.

00:21:22.871 --> 00:21:34.941
I wish I could remember it clearly, but he seemed to maybe have maybe someone over in Europe or in Asia, wherever he is, um help him that he wants to be with, like I think he was trying to like.

00:21:35.309 --> 00:21:38.780
I don't understand why you can't just go to Eastern Europe.

00:21:38.910 --> 00:21:42.276
Why not just tell your person hey, I'm not in love with you anymore?

00:21:42.276 --> 00:21:43.695
This is going to be really hard.

00:21:43.695 --> 00:21:52.373
I'm in love with someone else, I'm moving, it just seems why don't we have that conversation?

00:21:52.393 --> 00:21:53.876
yeah, well, he did do a life insurance policy, so geez.

00:21:53.876 --> 00:21:54.198
But who?

00:21:54.198 --> 00:21:59.171
Who, like we, should be able to find the beneficiary right, so we don't know any of that.

00:21:59.171 --> 00:22:12.314
He, I do know there's like a bank account that is over there that they're trying to get wire fraud and, uh, you know, insurance fraud and things like that against him, but he's not telling anyone where he is.

00:22:13.375 --> 00:22:19.498
And I'm curious, like I'm not talking ethically or morally Legally, what did he do wrong?

00:22:19.597 --> 00:22:20.219
He didn't.

00:22:20.219 --> 00:22:23.560
Okay, like they're saying, they don't have a criminal reason.

00:22:23.560 --> 00:22:25.642
Yeah, I found it Okay.

00:22:26.801 --> 00:22:36.728
This morning, video on social media featuring a man who resembles a father of three who allegedly faked his own death is now under investigation by authorities in Wisconsin.

00:22:39.410 --> 00:22:39.809
Should I go to?

00:22:39.829 --> 00:22:40.770
Uzbekistan or stay here.

00:22:40.770 --> 00:22:41.270
Say that one more time.

00:22:41.270 --> 00:22:46.053
Content creator Bailey Boomhauer says she shot the video in San Diego in June.

00:22:46.053 --> 00:22:55.336
She recently alerted police that the man looks similar to Ryan Borgwart, the married father reported missing while kayaking in Wisconsin back in August.

00:22:55.336 --> 00:22:58.698
Boomhauer remembered the interaction as bizarre.

00:22:59.238 --> 00:23:00.798
I've never even heard of that place before.

00:23:00.798 --> 00:23:09.603
So it's just a very like odd parallel that the man that's missing is also connected to Uzbekistan.

00:23:09.883 --> 00:23:15.105
Last week the sheriff of Green Lake County, wisconsin, announced that Borgward was never actually missing.

00:23:15.105 --> 00:23:22.888
He says evidence shows Borgward had planned his disappearance in order to escape to Europe and meet a woman from Uzbekistan.

00:23:22.888 --> 00:23:34.079
Investigators say they uncovered the alleged scheme after learning that Canadian law enforcement had checked Borgwardt's name the day after his disappearance.

00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:39.996
They say he had taken out a $375,000 life insurance policy, moved money to a foreign bank and had replaced his computer's hard drive.

00:23:39.996 --> 00:23:40.999
Why do you want to go?

00:23:41.619 --> 00:23:42.201
Meet a woman.

00:23:42.461 --> 00:23:44.673
So you've given up on meeting someone here.

00:23:45.275 --> 00:23:46.377
No, I'm married.

00:23:46.718 --> 00:23:53.622
Authorities are not saying that Borgwardt is the man in that social media video, but they do say they're investigating the video.

00:23:54.592 --> 00:23:55.816
Do you keep hearing Hogwarts?

00:23:55.816 --> 00:23:56.519
Yeah?

00:23:58.412 --> 00:24:00.531
Yes, I do Also.

00:24:00.531 --> 00:24:02.337
He's got kids like yeah.

00:24:02.337 --> 00:24:08.259
I don't care, I don't think they're adults based on his age, but if they are like, what are you do?

00:24:08.259 --> 00:24:11.770
Like, why not just get a visa and move to another country?

00:24:11.770 --> 00:24:14.256
Just be honest people like it could.

00:24:14.256 --> 00:24:26.853
It could solve so much yeah and I think it's quite douchey or assholey that you're sending a video going see, I'm here, because that feels a little bit like see, I did it you're right, I did it.

00:24:26.893 --> 00:24:29.175
Yeah, have I have hosed you Right?

00:24:29.175 --> 00:24:31.798
Well, here's the deal, george.

00:24:32.179 --> 00:24:32.960
Yeah, what's his name?

00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:33.881
I don't know.

00:24:33.881 --> 00:24:35.663
Let's call him Randy.

00:24:36.103 --> 00:24:36.304
Yeah.

00:24:36.364 --> 00:24:36.943
Bogwarts.

00:24:37.224 --> 00:24:37.984
Here's the thing.

00:24:37.984 --> 00:24:43.480
Bogwart, I hope you're happy, I don't.

00:24:43.579 --> 00:24:43.941
Well, I mean.

00:24:50.450 --> 00:24:50.851
I just might okay.

00:24:50.851 --> 00:24:51.913
Well, maybe I don't hope that he's happy.

00:24:51.934 --> 00:24:54.422
I just don't like to me this has taken up a lot of space right now, yes, oh, you don't want to talk about it.

00:24:54.442 --> 00:24:54.903
No, I don't.

00:24:54.903 --> 00:25:06.469
Well, I mean, yes, I want to talk about it, but I'm just saying like it's been all over the news like we're having a conversation about it now and it's like dude, like all right, I hope I guess what I'm saying, I don't.

00:25:06.469 --> 00:25:08.634
I don't hope he's happy, I hope.

00:25:08.634 --> 00:25:10.820
I hope that you're getting something out of this.

00:25:10.820 --> 00:25:16.810
I know, I agree that's what it feels like, because it feels like a yeah, yeah, like some guy that's like look what I did I.

00:25:17.092 --> 00:25:19.296
I, you're right, I did figure this out.

00:25:19.296 --> 00:25:29.962
Yeah, I'm going to get arrested, though, bro, I think Unless Doesn't have whatever the words are, like diplomatic immunity or something like that.

00:25:29.962 --> 00:25:30.523
Yeah, those words.

00:25:30.825 --> 00:25:36.182
Yeah, Well, it makes me think of the way that I'm feeling about this.

00:25:36.182 --> 00:25:39.849
It makes me think of my Aunt Mary Mac, and we love Aunt Mary Mac.

00:25:39.849 --> 00:26:00.027
Aunt Mary Mac is so awesome and I mean she is like the best, Like she's great, and I believe that you know, Taoist philosophy says that you are a quarter your mom, a quarter your dad and then 50% the Tao, like God, is like what you're comprised of.

00:26:00.027 --> 00:26:07.407
I think that I am 25% my mom, 25% my dad, about 15% Mary Mac, and then the rest God.

00:26:07.468 --> 00:26:08.190
Yeah, I could see that.

00:26:08.190 --> 00:26:08.932
Okay, so like.

00:26:08.952 --> 00:26:16.281
I feel like Mary Mac like is in my veins, she's just part of my please do her voice as you channel her.

00:26:16.462 --> 00:26:17.651
I will, okay, I will.

00:26:18.352 --> 00:26:19.693
Um, and it's going to be loud.

00:26:20.035 --> 00:26:22.558
So expect expect that.

00:26:22.700 --> 00:26:31.002
So years and years ago, my first dog that I owned, like as an adult, like living away from home as an adult, was my beagle Molly Pig.

00:26:31.002 --> 00:26:42.016
Yes, and Molly Pig has a whole language of her own, that that she and I together developed with the Dow and and.

00:26:42.016 --> 00:26:54.699
And one of the things that I would say when I was away from Molly Pig and it was just kind of a thing that I did that like my family was kind of used to is I would say, I wonder what Molly Pig's doing right now.

00:26:54.699 --> 00:27:10.102
And so I was at Mary Max one day without, obviously, molly Pig, and I said, well, I wonder what Molly Pig's doing, right, who cares?

00:27:11.563 --> 00:27:15.486
in that, loud voice yeah I mean, I channeled exact.

00:27:15.526 --> 00:27:22.932
I mean I even let my neck get tight, like I see her do and I might have a tear, you know I mean, it's like just on the edge of glory.

00:27:22.932 --> 00:27:25.154
Yes, yes, who cares?

00:27:25.154 --> 00:27:25.836
And?

00:27:25.895 --> 00:27:30.281
so did you laugh or were you offended that she might not care?

00:27:30.662 --> 00:27:35.476
yes, all of it I was like you're the devil, yeah.

00:27:35.476 --> 00:27:40.851
And then I was also like that's fucking awesome yeah, because she was living in her truth.

00:27:40.851 --> 00:27:43.054
Who cares about your damn dog?

00:27:43.054 --> 00:27:44.236
Right, you know, like who cares?

00:27:44.236 --> 00:27:49.343
Why are we sitting here here talking about Molly Pig and so um so anyway.

00:27:49.343 --> 00:28:02.056
So in in my um journaling time, lately that has just been resurfacing itself, so like I'll be thinking or talking about something or writing about something and I'll just go who cares?

00:28:02.457 --> 00:28:04.982
Because it seems so like it doesn't matter.

00:28:05.730 --> 00:28:14.924
And in what I have found is that I think this is a part of my healing, because what's in my head is who cares?

00:28:14.924 --> 00:28:17.835
Yeah, and there's this voice that goes.

00:28:18.455 --> 00:28:18.757
I do.

00:28:18.757 --> 00:28:35.198
Oh, that's good, I do, yeah, and that feels like a real victory to me because I have felt like ever since I had that moment, that that who cares is kind of that inner critic that like shut up, you're so stupid, like that whole thing who cares?

00:28:35.198 --> 00:28:38.131
And to the point that it's funny, you know, like now.

00:28:38.131 --> 00:28:40.898
Now in my family we say it all the time we go who cares?

00:28:40.979 --> 00:28:42.301
You know it's great.

00:28:43.510 --> 00:28:50.025
And I have just really appreciated like this voice from within me that has said I do yeah.

00:28:50.105 --> 00:28:50.506
I do.

00:28:50.685 --> 00:28:56.157
It feels really important on my, on my healing adventure that I'm on.

00:28:56.298 --> 00:29:00.653
And probably when Mary Mac said that you wanted to say I do, I do.

00:29:01.054 --> 00:29:06.392
Yeah, but I mean, back then I was just like you know like I don't know what to do with my hands.

00:29:06.392 --> 00:29:12.114
Um, this, really this really awesome powerful, influential woman just said to me who cares.

00:29:12.114 --> 00:29:13.778
You know, it's like what did I do?

00:29:13.778 --> 00:29:15.344
But just I was stunned.

00:29:16.086 --> 00:29:17.390
That is so interesting.

00:29:17.390 --> 00:29:19.154
Who cares?

00:29:19.154 --> 00:29:21.340
Like, yeah, that would knock me in the gut.

00:29:21.340 --> 00:29:24.057
Well, that's where you go.

00:29:24.057 --> 00:29:26.944
Well, shit, you're right, I'll just shut up over here.

00:29:26.964 --> 00:29:37.296
Right, right, you just close off part of yourself it's the same concept of when someone has said to you like it doesn't matter, or you say it to yourself and you're like, well, it does, it does matter.

00:29:37.477 --> 00:29:47.422
Yeah, yeah, that's very true it does matter, because like that's so dismissive Right Like for someone to just go, Sarah, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, it does like.

00:29:47.481 --> 00:29:49.886
actually, it does like clearly how I'm feeling.

00:29:49.946 --> 00:29:50.930
It does matter, right.

00:29:50.930 --> 00:29:52.795
Yeah, that's so good.

00:29:52.795 --> 00:29:55.461
Yeah, I have some good news, you guys?

00:29:55.461 --> 00:30:00.935
Okay, okay, there is a meteor, meteorite coming towards the earth.

00:30:00.935 --> 00:30:03.480
It's not always one.

00:30:03.661 --> 00:30:05.183
It's not chiron, though, is it?

00:30:05.183 --> 00:30:07.815
Do you guys know about chiron, the asteroid?

00:30:07.815 --> 00:30:09.377
I don oh do you?

00:30:09.617 --> 00:30:20.506
yes, oh this is one that's coming on valentine's day in 2046 2046 so yeah, we got like a good 21 years.

00:30:20.506 --> 00:30:22.169
Okay, is that the right math?

00:30:22.189 --> 00:30:27.277
yeah, 21 and a half 21, 22, yeah, yeah yeah, I think that's about right.

00:30:27.998 --> 00:30:36.138
Nasa says this asteroid as wide as a football field may hit Earth, so just like the dinosaurs, you know.

00:30:36.138 --> 00:30:41.663
So in about 21 years, it may finally be time to look up.

00:30:41.663 --> 00:30:43.718
This is a USA Today article.

00:30:43.718 --> 00:30:54.733
A recently discovered asteroid over 150 feet in diameter has a chance of hitting earth on valentine's day in 2046.

00:30:54.733 --> 00:30:57.078
Can I, can I interrupt you?

00:30:57.078 --> 00:30:58.260
I'd love for you to.

00:30:58.260 --> 00:30:59.503
I know it's your favorite thing.

00:30:59.503 --> 00:31:00.270
What?

00:31:00.270 --> 00:31:00.951
Space?

00:31:00.951 --> 00:31:04.859
No, aliens, oh no, I would love for you to.

00:31:05.580 --> 00:31:10.249
So we know that this thing is 150 feet in diameter.

00:31:10.249 --> 00:31:19.904
Yeah, we know that this thing is going to make an impact on Valentine's Day, but we don't know for sure if it's going to hit the earth.

00:31:19.904 --> 00:31:24.763
Yeah, that's what I want to know, it's like 21 years away from now Like how do we know all this shit?

00:31:24.763 --> 00:31:25.047
And then go.

00:31:25.067 --> 00:31:26.657
well, I mean, but how do we know what day?

00:31:26.657 --> 00:31:30.655
Yeah, I get you, I'd call bullshit on all that.

00:31:30.655 --> 00:31:34.259
I think it's just another thing to make us crazy.

00:31:34.259 --> 00:31:35.535
But let's keep reading.

00:31:35.535 --> 00:31:43.097
While the thought of an asteroid hitting Earth may sound concerning, NASA says we shouldn't be worried.

00:31:43.097 --> 00:31:47.259
Here's what you need to know about the newly discovered asteroid.

00:31:47.259 --> 00:31:51.176
And then it goes on to fear monger.

00:31:51.176 --> 00:31:53.652
Yeah, I'm with you.

00:31:53.652 --> 00:31:57.479
Why can't they shoot this thing down or something?

00:31:57.479 --> 00:31:59.741
Do you think the aliens?

00:31:59.884 --> 00:32:00.269
are going to help.

00:32:00.269 --> 00:32:05.332
Just get like a slingshot or like build a net, right A net.

00:32:05.332 --> 00:32:05.874
What is?

00:32:05.914 --> 00:32:07.826
the Doesn't a net have holes?

00:32:07.926 --> 00:32:08.108
in it.

00:32:09.030 --> 00:32:14.396
Just put a volleyball net up there it'll be enough for it to like bounce off of a trampoline.

00:32:14.597 --> 00:32:18.093
I'm pretty sure it's made of fire and that won't bounce.

00:32:18.153 --> 00:32:20.140
It'll go through that's a good point.

00:32:20.140 --> 00:32:27.338
I was just working out some thoughts yeah I didn't mean to sound so your remedies are fantastic.

00:32:27.459 --> 00:32:30.505
I I mean, you're right, a volleyball net is a good idea.

00:32:30.890 --> 00:32:35.221
It could be made of space material, titanium, I don't know yeah.

00:32:35.630 --> 00:32:41.803
Well, it makes me think of is the Star Wars program still a thing that's happening, Star Wars?

00:32:42.672 --> 00:32:42.992
Not the movie.

00:32:42.992 --> 00:32:43.957
Did someone tell you that?

00:32:43.957 --> 00:32:45.000
No, no, no.

00:32:45.000 --> 00:32:51.998
What friend told you there's a Star wars program?

00:32:52.258 --> 00:32:54.541
program, yeah, program.

00:32:54.541 --> 00:32:56.785
So I I it it back.

00:32:56.785 --> 00:33:02.041
Like in the reagan administration or something like that, wasn't a star wars program developed.

00:33:02.041 --> 00:33:09.895
That basically was like if a nuke is coming toward the united states, we have like shit going on in space that can eliminate that.

00:33:11.010 --> 00:33:12.657
I think that was the Star Wars program.

00:33:12.657 --> 00:33:14.115
I didn't know about that.

00:33:14.154 --> 00:33:16.978
Yeah, I might be making it all up, but I don't think that.

00:33:18.099 --> 00:33:18.362
I am.

00:33:18.382 --> 00:33:27.878
We have a producer, so she's going to tell us Well, I'm just thinking you saying can't we just shoot it out of the sky, Like, don't we already have the ability to do that?

00:33:28.990 --> 00:33:35.488
I don't know as much money as You're right.

00:33:36.029 --> 00:33:42.691
What it's the Strategic Defense Initiative, SDI, also known as the Star Wars program.

00:33:43.873 --> 00:33:49.512
Yeah, Reagan, oh we got something right To protect the United States from a nuclear attack.

00:33:49.994 --> 00:33:50.638
Is it still?

00:33:50.659 --> 00:33:50.819
working.

00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:54.690
We basically just need to get one of those little arms from a ping pong.

00:33:56.542 --> 00:33:56.965
What are those?

00:33:56.965 --> 00:33:58.885
A pinball machine.

00:33:58.885 --> 00:34:00.310
Pinball machine.

00:34:07.133 --> 00:34:10.679
I mean, life sort of is like a pinball machine.

00:34:10.679 --> 00:34:13.628
It kind of is yeah, whoa didn't know I was gonna get that one.

00:34:13.750 --> 00:34:15.302
Where the hell am I going now?

00:34:15.402 --> 00:34:21.023
that lit me up big time, yeah okay, I asked you guys over text recently.

00:34:21.023 --> 00:34:24.561
I'm changing the question so that it's fresh and new for our listeners.

00:34:24.561 --> 00:34:32.202
You get to choose one person who you have never met that you are going to have dinner with you.

00:34:32.202 --> 00:34:36.813
Tell me who the person is and why, and what meal you are eating.

00:34:36.813 --> 00:34:43.286
We went from two people to one because we talked about how it could get weird, yeah yeah.

00:34:43.827 --> 00:34:46.693
So in my second thing I picked Iona Teegarden.

00:34:46.693 --> 00:34:53.963
She's the founder of Gingendo, yes, and my two guests would have been the yellow emperor and his physician, so cool.

00:34:53.963 --> 00:34:58.568
And then I spent minutes, not seconds.

00:34:58.568 --> 00:35:06.155
I spent minutes worrying what if I orchestrated that Like, what if I manifested that because of your question?

00:35:06.155 --> 00:35:07.157
Oh, and you should.

00:35:07.157 --> 00:35:09.867
Would there be a translator?

00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:21.280
Oh yeah, well, just like my animals speak to me telepathically, I think you would just understand, okay yeah, okay, I got, I I got.

00:35:21.481 --> 00:35:33.483
Actually had some anxiety about have I chosen wrongly, because I'm sitting here with the yellow emperor and his physician and I can't understand what they're trying to say to me yeah, but isn't everything energetic anyway?

00:35:33.983 --> 00:35:41.923
yes, yeah, I just didn't have that perspective what would you ask the yellow emperor and his physician um?

00:35:43.467 --> 00:35:51.389
I would say I'm curious what you think about this modality that this woman has come up with and that I am a very, very, very, very, very beginner student of.

00:35:51.389 --> 00:35:53.041
What do you think of it like?

00:35:53.041 --> 00:35:55.284
Where, where do you, can you poke any holes in?

00:35:55.284 --> 00:36:02.547
Can you give me any encouragement so that as a practitioner I can do better, like I really just want to help people?

00:36:02.780 --> 00:36:05.048
Like it's kind of the end result, you know.

00:36:05.048 --> 00:36:10.666
So it's like I would just want to glean from their wisdom, yeah, and also go like how do you have fun?

00:36:10.666 --> 00:36:12.224
Like, what do you do for fun?

00:36:12.224 --> 00:36:17.824
Yeah, because, like, if we're so serious and learning and blah, blah, blah all the time, it's like that is fun.

00:36:17.824 --> 00:36:20.168
Yay, but like what do you?

00:36:20.168 --> 00:36:22.168
What is the yellow emperor do to have fun?

00:36:22.168 --> 00:36:26.253
Like, does he walk around his garden and fart Like who knows?

00:36:26.434 --> 00:36:34.809
Yeah, I hope he does too, because that is relaxing, it is very relaxing to just yeah, each step, you just let one out.

00:36:34.809 --> 00:36:39.103
Yeah, when do you get to actually do that in life?

00:36:39.103 --> 00:36:41.471
When you're alone in the garden, right in the garden, what are you having for dinner?

00:36:41.471 --> 00:36:47.447
Um, or it could be another meal asian cuisine oh fantastic, it just made sense.

00:36:47.847 --> 00:36:52.384
Thank you for asking such detailed questions well you're welcome, sarah I.

00:36:52.664 --> 00:36:59.206
I feel concerned that I didn't think mine through as well as you did, it's okay, I didn't either okay I just went with.

00:36:59.226 --> 00:37:00.027
You did it's okay, I didn't either.

00:37:00.027 --> 00:37:03.737
Okay, I just went with what I mean it probably was what came first to you.

00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:10.960
Mine was the two people, because I maybe subconsciously thought, maybe that would be weird to bring two randos and then me.

00:37:11.822 --> 00:37:13.838
So I picked which would be three randos.

00:37:14.201 --> 00:37:16.710
I picked Brandy and Catherine Carlisle.

00:37:16.710 --> 00:37:17.882
Oh, that's cool.

00:37:17.882 --> 00:37:29.382
Cool just because they seem fun, yeah, and you just talk about music till your brains fall out or life, you know, yeah, they both had very interesting lives.

00:37:30.023 --> 00:37:41.800
okay, that and then I'm gonna get in your mind, guess what you think she's gonna say for her meal mine is that we need to just do this, make this happen anyway.

00:37:41.980 --> 00:37:47.913
But where they put the pasta, like in the like cheese, it's like a whole.

00:37:48.514 --> 00:37:49.998
Oh yeah, wheel of cheese, wheel of cheese.

00:37:50.097 --> 00:37:55.967
And they lay the hot pasta, they just drop the pasta in and like, mix it all up in what the hell, and then they dump it on your plate.

00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:01.389
Oh my God, it all up in what, and then they dump it on your plate oh, my god, I want to do that?

00:38:01.389 --> 00:38:02.030
Do they do this at postino?

00:38:02.030 --> 00:38:02.532
I am gonna ask for it.

00:38:02.532 --> 00:38:02.713
I do too.

00:38:02.733 --> 00:38:05.342
There might and I thought you were gonna say spaghetti, so I mean we?

00:38:05.382 --> 00:38:06.706
we both knew spaghetti.

00:38:06.867 --> 00:38:13.686
Spaghetti is the best meal in the world that's great, that's awesome, and, and who are yours?

00:38:14.226 --> 00:38:21.755
um, well, i'm'm going to choose Mary Oliver as my person and I want to have soul food.

00:38:21.755 --> 00:38:37.246
I want to have like like, not turnip greens, but what are the other things called Collard greens, with like the ham hock in it and some cornbread and some hot sauce and some fried chicken.

00:38:37.246 --> 00:38:38.369
That's good.

00:38:38.369 --> 00:38:53.889
And I want to ask Mary Oliver just so much about her life Like what, what are those big moments in your life that helped you go beyond surviving and to like living?

00:38:53.889 --> 00:39:02.025
Yeah, that's been a thing I'm seeing all the time on tiktok and instagram is like you've survived for 50 years.

00:39:02.025 --> 00:39:08.240
Now it's time to live from surviving to thriving yeah, it's like thanks.

00:39:08.521 --> 00:39:13.132
Yeah, thank you for that and I'm like I get what you're saying and I actually want to do that.

00:39:13.132 --> 00:39:20.153
So that's what, like that's an intention I'm putting out there, but it does sound very to survive or to thrive.

00:39:20.153 --> 00:39:25.702
I'm going to survive and thrive, but like what is?

00:39:25.702 --> 00:39:30.452
What does it look like to live and not just like keep your head above water?

00:39:31.300 --> 00:39:31.884
And I'm.

00:39:31.884 --> 00:39:37.009
I immediately thought what if she asked you the same thing back?

00:39:37.860 --> 00:39:39.447
Well, the real question I want to ask her.

00:39:39.447 --> 00:39:44.579
I'm being myself right now, but it was really a downer, and then I'm going back to what you're saying.

00:39:44.579 --> 00:39:49.409
Okay, the words that came to my mind were what do you do with all your pain?

00:39:49.409 --> 00:39:53.125
But, that was really heavy, but that's what I want to ask her.

00:39:53.125 --> 00:39:54.909
Well, that's a, that's huge.

00:39:54.909 --> 00:39:55.972
Yeah, what?

00:39:56.012 --> 00:39:57.521
was the question you just asked, though.

00:39:57.521 --> 00:40:01.364
Um, what would you say if she asked you the same question which?

00:40:01.364 --> 00:40:03.025
What do you do with all of your pain?

00:40:04.186 --> 00:40:08.148
Um, I would say I'm attempting to express it now.

00:40:08.148 --> 00:40:20.737
In the past I have bundled it up and tucked it in my different folds in your compartment, oh here's a little fold.

00:40:24.070 --> 00:40:24.572
Let me put that.

00:40:25.579 --> 00:40:28.045
I'm going to put that right under the right.

00:40:28.045 --> 00:40:30.210
So I'm trying to express it, but I, I would.

00:40:30.210 --> 00:40:31.172
How would you?

00:40:37.612 --> 00:40:39.898
what do you guys do with your pain Avoid?

00:40:39.938 --> 00:40:40.679
it at all costs.

00:40:42.699 --> 00:40:43.583
I feel it, you feel it.

00:40:43.603 --> 00:40:43.985
I feel I feel it.

00:40:43.985 --> 00:40:44.326
Yeah, that's good.

00:40:44.326 --> 00:40:46.132
Yeah, you guys are both really mature and I'm just like avoid it.

00:40:46.152 --> 00:40:51.788
I think you feel it oh, I feel it, you feel it, I do, I do feel it I feel it a lot more without with your new protocol.

00:40:51.788 --> 00:40:56.963
I know I know, and I think that that's gonna be really good maybe that's the point, yeah.

00:40:57.443 --> 00:41:17.952
One thing you and I talked about going back to, that of you know, for people who don't know my story, for like seven and a half years I didn't drink, I chose not to drink and I just was like I'm going to do it as long as I want to, and it may be a few weeks, it may not be, but we were talking about what do you do with your time, and that was like the biggest thing for me is I.

00:41:17.952 --> 00:41:20.545
It was around this time too.

00:41:20.545 --> 00:41:30.596
It was November that I quit, november 14th and um, and it was getting dark early and I was like what the hell am I supposed to do?

00:41:30.737 --> 00:41:33.702
and that's when I started going to sleep at like 7 30.

00:41:34.461 --> 00:41:38.565
That piece has stuck.

00:41:38.565 --> 00:41:42.548
Drink or no drink, bedtime is 8 at the latest.

00:41:42.889 --> 00:41:44.110
I think you're going to do great.

00:41:44.130 --> 00:41:45.532
I think you're going to do amazing.

00:41:45.592 --> 00:41:51.436
And I'm excited for your foot and whatever this new season teaches you.

00:41:51.856 --> 00:41:52.496
Thanks, me too.

00:41:54.900 --> 00:41:55.860
We're going to drink it up at Tostitos.

00:41:55.880 --> 00:41:57.342
I hope they've got some salsa for our chips.

00:41:57.342 --> 00:41:58.264
I hope they have some Doritos at Tostitos.

00:41:58.264 --> 00:41:59.306
I hope they've got some salsa for our chips.

00:41:59.385 --> 00:42:01.208
I hope they have some Doritos at Tostitos.

00:42:01.588 --> 00:42:02.951
I hope they have some sandwiches.

00:42:03.411 --> 00:42:04.331
We're glad to be back.

00:42:04.331 --> 00:42:04.972
Love you guys.

00:42:05.012 --> 00:42:05.793
