Full show transcript:
You know that I am a sucker for a good music documentary. Yes. And there is one that I want to watch about Devo. Yes. I really think I missed the boat on Devo.
The only song from Devo that I really, really hang onto is like, oh yeah, that's a Devo song, is Whip It. Right. Right? But they have like some really good stuff. And so I really want to like learn more about this band and spend some time with it. And this new documentary I think is a great way to kind of learn more about them. I like their attitude. I kind of like their sort of, they're kind of like punk rock-ish in a way.
Okay. With their key-tars. They're still kind of like, their attitude has got like a punk-rocky, you know, edge to it, which I think is fun.
Right. So I think I kind of missed Devo. So I want to kind of, at some point I want to get into a little bit.
Okay. I want to get into Devo. I just found out completely unrelated to Devo, there is a new documentary coming out regarding Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. I know.
So here's the deal. They, the estate, the Tom Petty estate is posting some previously unreleased videos from the Wild Flowers era, which is a great era of Tom Petty, to promote the upcoming Somewhere You Feel Free is the name of the documentary. It'll be available on Blu-ray September 12th. So it's not being released anywhere on a streaming thing or whatever.
It's just on Blu-ray. And they posted some rehearsal videos on YouTube. They've been posting some previously unreleased stuff, as I said, to kind of prepare for this thing. But you can pre-order the DVD at TomPetty.com as well. But this is really super cool. That is cool. I'm really, really super excited about this.
I do like Tom Petty. Yeah. I could very easily. Not as much as my friend Sandra, but I do like Tom Petty.
I could easily get absorbed in some Tom Petty documentary. Me too. So I was watching that rehearsal video on YouTube of crawling back to you, which is really cool. Like a rehearsal video is where you're practicing, you're rehearsing to get ready for a tour, to get ready for performing these songs live. And I think that's fascinating that they, I mean, this exists. Of course it exists. Yeah, of course it does. Of course it exists.
Like there's part of being a fan of a band and going and seeing them live. But to be able to be part of the creative process of like, we want to create a set list. We want to create a show.
We want to create a design, all the production and the stage and the backdrop and the lighting and like all of that stuff happens before they hit the road on the tour. And I think that's fascinating. That's the stuff where I like, I could get really absorbed in the behind the scenes of a band.
Yeah, I like that stuff too.
Yeah, it's very fascinating. So anyway, September 12th, the Blu-ray is out for this new Tom Petty documentary called Somewhere You Feel Free. And
it's not streaming anywhere. Did you say that?
It just says it's coming out on Blu-ray. That's all the information that I really have. I don't know that it'll be, let me see if I can search for it really quick. Somewhere You Feel Free. There's like, there's a trailer for it. Somewhere You Feel Free, The Making of Wild Flowers. Very interesting.
That is cool. I'm excited to see that. Yeah. Because I do love Tom Petty.
Me too. Is this available on, now I'm kind of thinking this might be available on, I'm going to have to do some more research. Okay. I'll figure it out. But Somewhere You Feel Free, it looks like I can watch it on YouTube because it came out in like early 2020. But maybe it's just getting a Blu-ray release that's going to have additional unreleased footage. Gotcha. Maybe that's what's going on. Maybe. Because this is a collection of 16 millimeter film from 93 to 95 that was discovered in the archive of Tom Petty.
So maybe, and that's three years ago that this was posted on YouTube. I don't know. I'm going to have to do some digging.
Okay. I'm fascinated by it. I love a music documentary. I'm excited for this one. Shall we start today's show? Let's start it. All right, here we go. Okay. Hey, you want to do a show? Yeah, let's do it. You want to talk on the radio and stuff? All right.
That sounds cool. Well, it's Friday. So that's a big deal.
Yes, it is. It's Lazy Mom's Day and I really am excited about this one. Moms are rarely lazy, I would say, hardly ever.
Correct. But today is a day where moms are encouraged to take a much needed break and be a little lazy. Maybe order up some pizza for dinner. Don't over stress it on a menu.
Don't think about the stuff. I mean, obviously there's errands and there's things to get done and whatever and if you got to do some stuff, you got to get those kids to school. But the point is, be a little lazy today.
Be lazy. Take a nap. Be a little lazy. Put your feet up. Watch your favorite show.
Don't feel guilty about it.
Don't do it. Just be a little bit lazy.
Go be lazy. Hey mom, go be lazy. Yeah, you go be lazy.
It's National Lazy Moms Day.
You deserve it. Yeah, you know. And it's also cheese pizza day. Oh.
So just order a cheese pizza. Get out there and be lazy moms.
Let them fend for themselves. You order yourself that little personal pan cheese pizza. Yeah. Enjoy your night.
Be a little lazy. And say, go find your own food.
Hey, you go, you know what? I know you're three. Cook a macaroni, bud.
It's Lazy Moms Day. I'll be over here eating my little hot pizza. Yeah, that three-year-old will understand.
Yeah, like why did I get cheese pizza? I love cheese pizza.
Three-year-olds can listen. You're not a lazy mom. If I know anything about kids, it's that three-year-olds are the most understanding age.
100%. Don't get it.
They will not feel resentment toward you for having pizza and not sharing.
No. They'll get it. They'll understand. Especially
a hot, delicious, personal pan that's just the size
of a toddler. I promise you, if they won't throw a fit, they'll get it.
They'll understand. They'll be like, sorry, mom, enjoy your lazy day. Sorry for interrupting.
I'm going to go play with whatever.
Quietly. I'm going to go play quietly in my room.
I'm going to go whatever it is they do.
You're not going to throw any fits, I swear.
What are three-year-olds doing today?
Three-year-olds causing a ruckus. Oh, I'm sure.
But are they in VR headsets?
It depends on the three-year-old, I suppose.
Are they running around doing gorilla tag? Is that a thing?
Possibly.
Is that for three-year-olds? I know nine-year-olds are playing gorilla tag. I know nine- and ten-year-olds are, for sure. But what are three-year-olds up to?
I don't know, Josh. I don't have a three-year-old.
Running this town? It's crazy out there on the street.
Causing chaos. I knew it. Lighting things on fire?
Running around with purple crayons. Drawing imaginary things.
Mashing out windows. Oh, you went crazy. Yeah, they're crazy. Three-year-olds are crazy.
Turn the cars upside down, light them on fire. Crazy. Wow. I didn't realize they got up all that.
Three-year-olds are my favorite, because they just don't care.
I know, but they're also like little drunk people. I know. Like, they just are like, ooh, and they fall over and they're wild.
And they don't care. They don't care about you or anything around them.
Yeah, they're crazy. But they are cute. I like them. I do too. The three-to-fives are pretty fun. And they're my favorite. Yeah.
Well, be lazy today, mom. Watch out for those wild...
Watch out for those three-year-olds.
Ruckus causing three-year-olds.
If you could rent a person, what kind of person would you rent?
Oh, like a handy person. Oh, okay. Yeah, like I'd get somebody to like help with the handy stuff around the house.
Like what would you have them help you with?
Oh, like the lawn and the weeds.
So you would just hire a landscaper. Yeah. Then necessarily a handy person. Yeah.
I mean, there's not a lot to do around that. There's a few things like... Handy manny? Run to Lowe's and get that thing I need to cover the hole in the basement ceiling. Paint the basement ceiling. Paint the wall. Like there's stuff where I'd be like, just do all this stuff. Okay. I don't want to do it.
That's why it's not been done yet. Yeah. Japan has a rent a person that has all kinds of options. You can rent a grandmother. Oh, wow. You could rent a sibling. You could rent a muscle person for moving.
This feels like the plot of a movie. A muscle person for moving?
Yeah, I'll need one muscle person for moving. Yeah. No. Yes, they have this. No. They don't call it a muscle person to move stuff. What do they call it? A strong man.
Okay. Same as a muscle person.
I'll take one muscle person and a brother. What? They cannot be the same.
I want a wimpy brother and a strong person to move this piano.
Rent a person.
We talked about a couple of weeks ago or a while ago, we talked about how you could hire somebody that would break up with you, right? Wasn't that what it was?
I don't remember. Somebody that would break up with your boyfriend. Like make a public thing? Kind of, yeah. I don't think this is the same industry. This is a different industry.
Okay. You can also hire scary people. What? And these are people with intimidating appearances. No way. It says scary people. They call it in Japan. I'm not going to say it because I'm going to butcher it.
Oh, that's a Japanese word? Yeah. Okay.
But the scary people are like intimidating people. So men with tattoos and shaved heads and bulky physiques. That's just me.
Bald head, couple of tattoos, and let's be real, husky physique.
Muscle person.
No, I am not a muscle person. I am not a muscle person.
You're also not a husky person. You're not. I don't know.
I've seen myself walk down a hall. I know I feel husky.
You're not. You're not husky.
The halls are getting narrower and my clothes are getting tighter. I feel like I'm husky.
Okay, but what's, how scary are you? How intimidating are you? Not very. No, you're not. You're a nice guy.
Hey, you. I feel like if I got scary, I'd be more afraid of myself. I'm like, whoa, where'd that come from? That's a weird place.
You're a hate ex-offer.
That's right. Hey, Biff. Biff?
Yeah, it's exactly, except, you know, he really stood up to Biff. I feel like I'd stand up to Biff and then Biff would get out of the car and be that big guy. He'd be a muscle guy. Yeah, he'd be a muscle person. And I'd be like, oh no, you're a muscle person. Run away. Yeah, you're here to move stuff and I'm the stuff. I'm not ready to be moved.
So if you could hire one of those people, which one would it be? Oh, what, what would I hire a grandma? Yeah, a pretend sibling, a muscle person.
Or say muscle person. Does it really say that? A muscle person.
It says, okay, here's the actual sentence. Japan has a rented person industry which has all sorts of options, like grandmothers, pretend siblings, and things like muscle for big moves.
So you just add a muscle person. Yeah.
That's essentially what it said.
You know you can rent a person who does nothing?
Why would you want to rent that person?
Well, it's just companionship. For clients who want a human presence but don't want a lot of interaction. So you can just have somebody around.
That would drive me a little bit crazy. Yeah. If you're going to be here, do something.
Someone to quietly read a book with. Someone to accompany them to run errands or someone to simply sit across from them at a cafe. Okay. Minimal engagement. Interesting. You can also rent someone, including a handsome man, to introduce cathartic crying and then wipe away your tears. He will induce crying and then wipe away your tears. You can rent someone to do that.
He's also going to be the one that makes you cry. That's what it says. Well, I don't want him to make me cry and then wipe away my tears.
A handsome man will induce cathartic crying and then go, hey, it's going to be okay.
Hey, hey, you. Hey, hey. Let me see you said handsome man. I'll make that determination. No, you're the scary man. I'm not the scary man. You said you were.
I'm not the scary man. I just fit the description of the scary man.
It's about $7 an hour to rent a middle-aged man.
I'm in the wrong business. Okay. You could rent me. If you want to rent me, I'll be any of these people. I'll be scary. Muscle. Yeah. I'll be muscled. I'll be a mussel person. I'll be your grandma.
I'll be your sister. No. I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll wipe away your tears. Hey, hey.
You got to make them cry though. You got to be scary person and then be like, well, he easy.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. I'll put my fingers on either side of their face and then I'll just. Squeeze. No, no. That's scary person. I'll just take my thumbs and wipe away their. Oh, that's nice.
Here's some good news. Let's hear it. This is a story about Logan Smallwood. He's from land Chester, England. And ever since he was a little boy, he was passionate about trains.
Okay. He collected model trains. He dreamed of one day being an engineer on a train and driving a real full size locomotive. Well, he's now 18 and he still spends time designing and building toy railways with his friends.
But after becoming one of the youngest licensed train drivers in the country, Logan is also operating a real full sized train along the Weirdale Railway. He has the job. He's very happy about having the job. He's also proud of the work that he did to make his dream come true. He said, I've always loved trains. I've just loved anything that can move any kind of machinery transportation. I've always been fascinated by it. And he now has his dream job at 18. He's going to be running them trains.
That's great. Awesome. What a guy. Way to go, dude. I know. Following your dreams for real.
The youngest licensed train driver in England at 18. Congratulations.
I know. What's his name? His name is Logan Smallwood.
Logan. Good job, buddy.
Yeah. And he has a huge collection of model trains. He's got a bunch of pictures of himself with trains as a kid. He was gone to different little train. Some of them that you can actually sit in and drive. Like you see a different pumpkin patch type train, those kinds of things. But he got to drive one of them when he was little. So he's always been fascinated by trains forever and ever and ever. And here he is, living his dream at 18. I think it's cool. Way to go. Good job, buddy.
Way to go, Logan. That's good news.
Whoa. NFL football opened last night with a bang.
I don't even know what to say about football last night. It started off with a giant rivalry between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys. Now, they've had a bunch of trades go down in the NFL. And so some players were like, like within the past week or two.
So players were missing from strategy and from planning and everything else. And so it was just wild. I'm incredibly upset.
And I wandered around the house very upset last night. Because I don't know why the quarterback, Jalen Hertz, decided not to ever pass the ball to the two wide receivers. I mean, there's a third and he passed a bomb to the third.
I don't know why you are still playing fantasy football because it really, really upsets you.
I don't either. And I have two teams this year. So I got a whole season of frustration.
And all you do is get so upset and then you just wander around the house complaining. Yeah. Okay, but we didn't even talk about even right before the snap. I know. Guy ejected from the game.
Yeah, like a huge part of their defense, the Eagles defense, walks up to Dak Prescott, the quarterback of the Cowboys. And they're having words and he spits on him. He gets ejected before the first snap. He didn't even get to play football. He got kicked out of the game.
Well, guess what? You can't do that. That's unsportsmanlike conduct. That is correct. And I feel that is the most disrespectful thing you can do to somebody is to spit on them.
It's pretty rude. That's awful. So the terrible news for my fantasy football team is that I had the number one and number two receivers for the Eagles. And collectively I have 6.4 points from two of my players. I'm sorry, Josh. The girl that I'm playing against has 11 points for her kicker.
She had Dallas' kicker. Go back because... This is nuts. I just read that cameras showed Dak Prescott spitting first. They said he was spitting in the direction of Jaylen Carter before Jaylen Carter spit at him.
But the second guy always gets caught.
Dak Prescott said, I was just spitting. That wasn't no disrespect toward anybody. I was just getting rid of some saliva. Sure thing. Sure thing, pal. Also, have you seen Jaylen Carter, the guy that spit on him? He's a massive dude. I would not be challenging him to anything.
He's a muscle guy.
She's a loose. Crazy. And it got delayed because of the weather. Right.
It was still on. It was on late. Toe to toe in points the whole game.
Sheesh. I know. Football's back, baby.
Yeah. Yeah, it is.
There was a woman from Argentina who took a trip to Italy. And while she was there, she wanted to see the town that her father grew up in. The Airbnb she rented ended up being the house that he was born in. No way. She didn't realize until she got there. She brought some old family photos with her to try and like...
Find the place. Does it look like this? Does it look like this? She was planning to go and search for his old house, but then she saw it in one of those photos and realized, I think this is it. I think this is where he lived.
Yeah. How was she able to confirm it? Through a picture.
Well, I guess. I mean, are there other houses that look the same? You know how they are around little suburbs? Like, I mean, you could say like, these all look the same. So how do you know? I don't know if that's the case.
Like, is it unique enough that she was like 100% of the place? Here's what I know. She contacted the Airbnb hosts and they said yes. They confirmed that their family had purchased the house from...
There you go.
Floor's grandparents.
From her grandparents, yeah. How wild.
Isn't that cool? That's really, really...
And then the owners of the Airbnb said, we didn't know you were on this journey. Is there any way that we can help you? We're natives here. We can guide you around. And so they helped her get some local records and pieced together some of her family history. How cool is that? I know. That is the coolest, I think.
Yeah. That's really, really fun.
Makes me kind of want to go in search of some of my family history houses.
But you know where your houses are. Do I? Yes. You know where your grandma's house is? Yeah. Yeah.
So... I actually don't. My grandma who lived in Utah, I don't know. I'd like to drive by, but I don't know her address. How would you know? How would I know what?
Well, I don't know what it is. You can drive down any place and be like, there it is. No, I could absolutely know. It was on a hill. It was yellow. Uh-uh. Yeah.
A yellow house on a hill. Yeah. It's right down these things. These are the... These are the big clues. In West Jordan. Okay. A yellow house on a hill in West Jordan. Yeah. What else do we know? Was the grass outside green? Yes. Oh, good.
And had a chain link fence?
No way. Yep. These are all helpful things. It had it how long ago. Uh-uh. When was the last time you were there?
The last time I was there was before I met you.
Well, I figured as much. How young were you?
I was probably 16 or 17.
Okay, so you were in high school? Yeah. All right. So it's been...
I mean, I could get the address. Not quite 30 years. Nobody lives there anymore. Nobody that I know lives there. But I could get the address and then just drive by.
That'd be a much easier way to find it than just driving around, looking for a yellow house on a hill with a chain link fence and some green grass.
And the green grass grew all around.
How do you know if it's still yellow? Exactly. Right.
If they painted it, that would be so sad because I always liked coming down the road and seeing that yellow house. It was exciting. Was it at the end of a road? No. Yes. Yes, it was.
It was... Yeah. In a cul-de-sac? It actually was at the bottom of the hill. There was a teal that went up and my cousin Chad said... Which one? On my dad's side. He said, Chantel, ride the skateboard down the hill and I said, no.
You should have done it. And he said, yes, and I did. No, you didn't. Yes, I so did. And then I fell because it was very steep and very fast. Is this
why you won't ride a skateboard now?
Yeah, probably. Traumatized.
You won't even ride it on flat ground. No, too scary. You won't even stand on it. Too scary. Yeah, so... You won't stand on it. You won't let me pull you. I know. Scary. It's not scary. Danger is your middle name. Or is it too scary? Chantel, too scary, Tielor.
My also... That my also cousin was a... He was a big Alice Cooper fan. And that's how I first heard about Alice Cooper. And I was like, oh, what's this guy?
All right.
Well... Do you want to go on a search for your grandparents' house? I know where they all live. Okay. Well, no family history for us then.
I just already know the information. Everybody lived in town. I didn't have to go anywhere to find people. My uncle lived in Boise. I'd like to remember where he lived. Oh, that would be fun. But I don't know where that address is. I bet you could get it. Probably. Maybe.
Your one grandma did live in Washington for a time. Yeah. We could go check out that.
That's in Mead, outside of Spokane. Oh, no. If we were going to a different part of Washington, like Snohomish. With pies. Right. Then, yeah, sure. We could go through Mead on the way, I guess, if we go that way. But Mead was like a tiny little town off the side of Spokane. It's not, the time wasn't a big town. And I haven't been there since my senior year of high school.
Let's go check it out. Road trip. Again?
To Spokane again? Not to Spokane.
Again? What a night. What a fun night. Let me tell you what happened. I had a meeting later in the evening at eight o'clock. You also had a meeting, but you also had to pick up our daughter from work.
And so you were going to do that, drop her off at home and then come to the meeting. Yep. Right?
That was the plan? Yep. Simple, easy. Totally easy. Everybody in the house was kind of a little bit hungry. Yep.
Around six-ish. And so. Hold on. We kind of sat around for a while. Okay, go ahead. Debating about food?
Yes. You and I were like, maybe we'll make something, maybe whatever. But we knew that Emery wasn't going to be home until after eight. And Beck was like, but I'm hungry now. So we're like, well then order some food or something. Like go get something. Right. If that's, if that's, you know, we're all kind of going a hundred different ways tonight.
Maybe you're on your own. And he went, okay, I'm just going to order some food. Yep. So he gets online, orders some delivery food. And he's like, I ordered some food.
And you were like, well, hey, it's, it's not food. It's going to get cold. He's ordering, you know, a sandwich.
Why don't you order something for Emery as well? And then, you know, whatever. Well, if you go to pick her up from work, I'm at the meeting, I can get some text messages. You show up at the meeting after dropping Emery off at home.
There's more in between this part. You don't know.
Oh, there's part I don't know. I dropped Emery off at home fully expecting the food to be delivered already. And I'm telling Emery, she's like, I'm so hungry. I'm like, I know Beck ordered some food. They're already for sure. He ordered it a while ago, so it should be there.
We ordered it at like 720.
And we walked in the house about 805, 810, no food. And I go, where's the food? And I go to Aspect. He sound asleep. Yeah. Sound asleep. And our son, when he's asleep.
Yeah, yeah, he's asleep.
You can't. There's no way that you can wake him up. No chance. And I go, did you order the food? And he goes, I don't know.
And I go, no, really? Did you push the confirm button? He's, I don't know. I don't know. We go, Emery, just order the food.
I'll transfer the money to you. You can order the food. Have it delivered. And he goes, no, I did. I did. I did. Sound asleep still. Yeah. So.
But he's confirming that he did order the food.
He did actually order the food. At first it was like, no, I didn't. And then yes, there was a confirmation. Okay. So I head over to the meeting.
Right. The whole time in the meeting. The whole time in the meeting. The phone's just going crazy with text messages from the kids about how the food's not there. It's been a long time. The food's still not here.
It's been over an hour. The food's not here. I don't know where the food is. They said they delivered the food, but the food's not on the front step. There's no food.
Meanwhile. Yeah. Beck falls asleep again. Ah, cool. So. It's because I'm like, just call him and tell him it hasn't been delivered. Right. Sound asleep. Yeah. Sound asleep.
But he got the delivery notification that the food had arrived, but there's no food. There's no food. So I. And I did say the one thing I said was, do you remember? No, I don't. The one contribution I added was, right here, they might have put it next door. Question mark. And nobody went to check.
No, of course they would go to check. No. So I get home. I call the company. I said, Hey, this wasn't delivered. He said, Oh, we've have our typical delivery person because they have their own delivery person. Okay. He said, we don't have one of those. So we're using an outside delivery service. We've kind of had some problems all night. I'm going to remake those. I'll get them redelivered. And I go, okay.
So this was now what time? Nine? Yeah. This was nine. So again, this order was initially placed at seven 20. Correct. It's now nine.
So I go home. I checked the neighbor's house. Nothing on either side. I go, no, it really hasn't been even delivered at the neighbor's house. So then we wait for the second delivery to come. You come home. Yeah. You go on a walkabout in the neighborhood.
I'm going to go find it in the neighborhood because if it says it's been delivered, it's somewhere like that's too strange. So I walk to the West and I checked two houses.
There's nothing. I checked the neighbor and the next house. I look across the street. So I checked three houses.
I walked back the other way across the street to check that one. Nothing. The neighbors right next to us to the East.
Nothing. And then bingo, the vacant house that was recently sold. It's sitting on that step. And now to be fair, our house number and the house number that the food was delivered to the same four numbers in a different order.
So, and they didn't have a porch light. So it was kind of hard to see. I had to use my phone flashlight to even realize there was food sitting there. It had been sitting on the step for two hours. Two houses away. But I found it.
Meanwhile, second delivery is now 45 minutes late. That one still hasn't been delivered. We found the first order. Couldn't find the second order. But the kids are eating now. And I called the manager. I was like, Hey, will you just call me when that order gets there?
I'm like, absolutely. I call him. I go, we got the second or the, we found the first delivery.
Second delivery hasn't been delivered. And he was like, I don't know what's going on. He's like, do you want me to make another one? I'm like, no, I don't. Thank you so much. Yeah. You've been more than helpful. I appreciate it. And then you and I, 945 are like, well, we still haven't eaten dinner.
Yeah. We should probably go grab a late dinner.
I don't even know what's open. Let's just go grab something. Open the door. There's the bag of food. Second delivery delivered.
But they didn't ring the doorbell. They didn't knock on the door. We had no idea it was outside. What is going on? I don't know. I'm not into the food delivery thing.
And it was not the company's fault at all.
The company was so nice. No, it was the third party delivery service. The guy that I talked to was so helpful.
Aye, aye, aye. Hey, moral of the story, there is no moral, but we all ate.
Good news is we all ate dinner. It was nuts.
Stupid. What a night.
What a night. Hey, but did you gain a lot of information from the meeting you were completely distracted in? Nope. Good deal. I know nothing from that meeting. Good deal.
I know all the things. So what do you want to know? Everything.
Okay. Start from the beginning.
All right.
So, hey everybody, welcome to the thing.
When we were hanging out with friends over this past weekend, I had my one friend said, what's a song that you'll never skip? Like it comes up on your playlist and you say, yep, can I listen to this one the whole way through? And I immediately knew my answer. Kat and I, Joe. Okay. To each their own. No, no, no. That was your answer. No. That was not my answer. I don't even have that on my playlist.
Well, what is wrong with your playlist?
I'll tell you one thing.
I'll tell you. There's one thing wrong with your playlist. It's missing the rednecks.
Kat and I, Joe. Too many high school dances that played that song. And I went, I don't know.
Had it not been for Kat and I, Joe. Ever hear that song again? I'd have been married a long time ago. Where'd you come from?
Yeah, I don't, I've heard that song enough in my whole life at teenage dances. Yeah. No, thank you. It's not that. That's a, that's a skip. That's an absolute skip. That wouldn't even come up in my playlist ever. Ever.
I hope it surprises you one day. I hope it doesn't. You just listen in and all of a sudden it's like, and you go, what?
You're going to randomly place it in there. I know it. Right.
So I have access to your playlists. You could. And by playlist, I mean your one playlist with everything in it. Yeah.
All my favorites. Which scares people. Why? Why does that scare people?
Is it scarier to have one playlist with every song you like on it? Or to not have any playlists?
To not have any playlists.
That's how I roll. I know that's scary. I will have like a mood and I'll be like, I want to hear this song. So I will pull up the song and let it play other related artists and songs after it finishes the song that I want. I let it self-curate. No way. I build playlists all the time, like for a job. I can't be bothered to do it for fun. I don't know.
No way. Do you want to know the song that comes up that I will never skip? What's your never skip?
This is a song. It's not a very popular song, but it, whenever it comes on.
Oh, how very trendy of you. I know. I'm so... I'm surprised you're going to say it. I'm so in me. Instead of just gate keeping it. I don't want anyone else to know my song.
This song makes me happy. It's called Sunshine and it's by an artist called Matas Yahu. Oh, okay. Yeah. It's, every time it comes on, I'm like, yeah, I'm going to listen to this. It's a very happy feel good song. Yeah, sure. I like it. I'll never skip that song. Never. Next, your turn. I don't know.
I told you, I don't build playlists. Like I would just randomly... And what I think has happened more recently, if I open up my music app here, is that like, like I listened to...
I'm trying to even see. Like I've been listening to a band that we saw recently. And I know you have as well. Cause I haven't really listened to them much. And they opened for 311. And so we've been watching. We've been listening to those guys.
Yeah. And so I've been listening to that band a little bit. But again, like I'll hit like a song and I'll be like, okay, now just play whatever you want next. And I just listen. I don't... And if it's something comes up, I go like, nah, I don't want to hear that. And I skip. I don't listen the same way as most people. I don't listen to music the same way. Same way.
Everybody listens to their music their own way. I was listening to a song yesterday and it was one because I like to sing along in the car and if I'm singing along and I'm jamming out to the song and I get a phone call or I get interrupted in my sing along then I get instantly irate. And that happened yesterday. As I was driving I was singing and then I kept getting texts and so then my phone would go, take me out of the song and I'd be like,
yeah, see my top artists recently in my most recent recap are that band I was just talking about the band that I love the most a band I listened to when I'm fishing and hiking a band I've listened to since I was a kid and weird out because we're prepping for the show.
So I don't know. The tracks I had on repeat the most listened to song is a song from a brothers fountain which is that group of bluegrass dudes that were rafting through the state. Their song is my most listened to song recently. Followed by some punk rock and a Sabrina Carpenter. So it's all over the place.
Well, my playlist is all over the place too. I have lots of artists from all kinds of genres. OK, well, you didn't answer the question.
I don't know. I don't know the right answer. Like I would have to really like dive in. I didn't have prep time. I feel like you kind of like launched this one at me cold. So I wasn't prepared if I.
Properly this song. This question was launched on me cold and I knew the answer immediately. No.
I said that I have to spend way too much time thinking about it. Don't roll your eyes at me. I listen to my music differently.
Oh, get over yourself. What are you talking about?
I like it would be easier for me to go look at like. Do they keep track of songs I don't like? Like these are the ones you skipped after two seconds. Like, you know, the way you had that reaction to that song, I recommended you listen to way more often than you ever do. OK, that I want to see that list. I want to see like this song came up and you immediately went no.
I have lots of those. Right. Lots. Yeah.
Because I don't skip much. But if it's a song I don't like, it's out of here.
Yeah, I skip a lot. Right. Especially if I don't know it and I can't sing along, then I'm like. Forget about it. I'm not going to be bothered. No, I'm not learning.
No, no, no way. I'm already set in my ways. It's not how I listen to music. I know you listen to music different. You're so different and cool. I didn't say that. Oh, you're you just listening. You don't listen to music the way other people do. Wow, you're such an enigma. Wow.
That's right. You get it now. I'm going to get a shirt. This is I'm an enigma.
I'm in a I'm a music listening enigma.
Yeah, whatever. Cool.
We were having a conversation with your cousin and his wife who listen to the show sometimes. And they brought to my attention that I maybe don't listen to you sometimes. What you what you mean?
Go on. They told me that there's oftentimes that you'll bring something up and you'll say, we talked about this and I'll be like, no, we did it. And they'll be in their house or their car listening going, like shouting at the radio like, yes, I heard this. I remember he talked about this. So they're yelling at me going, shut up, you have to remember that he talked about this. Here's what I know. I feel like I do listen and just don't always remember. So what?
OK, say no, that's no, say what you're going to say. I think this you got something to say. No, sounds like it.
I think what you're feeling is definitely a part of it. I think I think you hear it. We have a conversation and we talk a lot. So I think that what happens is we get to a week down the road and we'll run into somebody family or otherwise. And they'll be like, oh, you guys were talking about that thing. And you go, we did.
Yeah, I go.
But that's because we talk about so much so quickly. And here's here's the deal. The way we make the show. Is a lot different than the way people consume the show. Let's get a little inside here. Because we we put together a four hour show.
We're in here for a long time in this studio. And by my count already today, three, six. So this is the eighth thing, not including kids, smarts, this is the eighth thing that we've talked about today. Yeah. Do you remember what was the first thing we talked about without looking at the thing?
Um, yes, give me just a minute. Mm hmm. It wasn't Cookie Day because that was yesterday. No, I would have to go with peak. Right. Because I can't remember.
Right. It was it was two hours ago. Lazy moms. We talked about lazy moms. Not the moms are lazy. But that's how fast. So now do you think someone who's listening right now about you not listening. Heard us talk about lazy moms. Probably not. Probably not.
Right. Because they're consuming at smaller intervals. Correct. They're not listening for the full four hours.
Now, unless you listen to the podcast and you religiously listen to the whole thing all the way through, which great. If you do, we love that. Thank you. Thank you for listening to the entire four hours of show we make. And it only takes an hour to do that. If you listen to the podcast, but if you're just tuning in while you're driving the kids to school or while you're on your way to work or doing your hair, whatever, the time you're listening is only right now. And so you don't know we talked about lazy moms or that we talked about. In fact, you could rent a person or we had good news at 645. Like all that stuff. You might not have heard.
Now, if you missed that muscle person. Yeah, Mr. That was, that was a good one. You missed that one.
You want to go catch that one in the podcast later. If you missed out on that this morning for sure, you can rent a muscle person.
Anyway, but that's my point is that, is that like people will listen and they'll hang on to one thing. They aren't listening to eight or 10 or 12 things that we talked about in a day.
And maybe not, maybe this conversation doesn't resonate and they go like, yeah, it was okay, but it's not something I'm going to bring up if I bump into them. Yeah, but they might go like, but you talked about those lazy moms
and that I got to talk about the muscle people.
Talk about rent and muscle people. I'm a muscle people. Yeah.
Yeah. You see? I get it. Right. I get it. But it's also just that I, it's not that I'm not listening. I just don't remember.
But it's because of the quantity. It's because we have to talk about so much.
The quantity of stuff that's already in my brain and the things that I'm already thinking about and trying to remember and things I have to do and get done and stress and anxiety and worry and all of it. It's all jammed in there. Yeah. So when you talk about stuff and I go, I don't remember that. It's because it's not important.
It can't stick. It doesn't stick around? No, it can't. Because groceries. Uh-huh. Yeah, I see. I got to think about a menu. Yep. I see. You get it. Uh-huh. There's too many to-dos. Exactly.
And not enough room for have-duns. So here's the thing I would recommend. If anybody wants to talk about something that was talked about on the show and you're like, hey, you guys were talking about those muscle people. It's be a little bit more specific maybe. Be like, hey, you guys were talking about how you could rent a person. And you'd be like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. Like that's enough to trigger me to go, I remember talking about renting people.
It might, it'll take me a minute. If somebody comes to me and said, you were talking about renting people, I'll be like, um. Are you sure that was my show? So, okay.
So, so here's the deal. If you're going to approach Chantel to talk about something that was talked about on the show. Just give me a minute. Just, just keep explaining it until the light turns on.
Yeah, it'll turn on. You guys were talking about renting people and you said you could rent muscle people to help you move stuff. It was happening in Japan. And you'll have that squinty eye look like you have right now where you're trying to sort out all the things that are going on in your brain. Just keep explaining what it is until she goes, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then you can go, okay, now I wanted to tell you that was funny. Yeah, that's a typical conversation with me.
Yeah, just keep explaining. It's really fun to work with me. People at work all the time go, hey, do you remember that email I sent you? And I go, um. Was it important? Yeah, it's filed behind your grocery list.
Your grocery list, you put too far in the front. You need to move that one back.
Remember that really important thing you were supposed to do at work? Um, more specific.
What? So you're listening, you're hearing, we're conversating. It's just once it's done, it's out of there. Sometimes. You know what would be cool if you made a little more room for stuff that's more current by getting rid of some grudges. Hi. Clear out some storage space by getting rid of some grudges. I can't.
And you, yeah, you can. I don't want to. Because you'll never forget those.
No, I will never. See? Clear them out. No way. You did me wrong. See, listen to you. You're stuck in there forever. You did my family wrong. Yeah.
You did. You did me dirty. You're like a mob boss. Yeah, I know. Yeah. Don't even think I'm getting rid of that. See, get rid of the grudges. No way.
And all the memories that are negative
and see what happens with some positive new stuff.
I have to keep the thing that offended me in the third grade in there or the really weird thing I said on the phone call three weeks ago. I that's got to stay in there. No way. I can't get rid of that. You can. I got to think about that every night before I go to bed.
You can and you should. And then you know what you can think of instead? What? Muscle people. Muscle people. That's right. Renting a muscle people. Hey, when we were at the mall. Yes. In Salt Lake City, they had this display.
Yes. That had a bunch of light. It was like the selfie studio thing. And it had a bunch of different colors and you're supposed to take this quiz. Yep. And you get all about your color.
Yeah, I'm all about a quiz.
And you are. And this stems from Seventeen Magazine. Yes, it does. And Cosmo. It's been going on for a long time.
Is he really that into you?
Take the quiz to find out. Yeah. Somebody genius figured that out a long time ago. And then people like Buzzfeed were like, let's do quizzes and people will get sucked into our website and they did.
And they do. So this is the princess. Are you? Yeah. OK. I better find out. So so this is like a color theory thing. Is that right? So it's supposed to tell you based on your response to the questions. And they were like they were multiple choice and they had four different answers. And depending on what you chose, it would give you a color and then it would sort of give you like a color horoscope. Your color personality. OK, so you had me take it as we were walking around the mall. You took it as well.
Yep. And you got the results, but you have not shared the results. Here we go. Is this time?
Yep. I finally get to know. Finally get to know what's your color. I am mystical purple.
Mystical purple. I trust my intuition and love a little mystery. I'm always searching for deeper meaning and hidden truths and my creative imagination makes life feel magical. OK. People are drawn to my unique perspective and the way I see the world. Oh, do you agree with that?
I think that's all good. Yeah. Here's the thing. Have you looked up mystic purple? No. Look up mystical purple on on Google Images real quick. OK. You got to see some of these colors because these are very interesting colors. There's like some some dragon stuff in here, maybe a wolf. There's there's a lot of purple in here. I mean, it's a mystical purple.
I mean, I am a Vikings fan. OK, that's fair.
OK. Like I don't like dragons.
I understand you're not into fantasy. I get it. But my point is like it's got that sort of like it's very. What's the word I want? I don't know. I don't know either. But it's not bad. And I mean, it's not a bad color. It's beyond lilac. But it's not like it's not like a deep purple. It's like its own kind of it's very blue hue. Dude, it's very nice. It's a good color.
You do you want to know your personality?
And I feel like this fits you. You are nurturing green.
Nurturing green.
You have a natural instinct to care for others, always offering support and encouragement. Oh, that's nice. You're happiest when surrounded by nature, finding peace in the simplicity and beauty. Oh, I like that. I feel like that is you very much.
I do love some peace and simplicity and nature. Now look at Nate nurturing green color. OK, and it's not quite seafoam. No, but it's a nice color. I do like that color. That's one of the colors I think would look really nice in the bathroom. Yeah, I do like nurturing green. That's a nice color. There's a whole house painted in it. I see that. I see that.
Nurturing green.
Now, do you put a lot of stock into this? No. OK.
Because there were like seven options for colors. And I think there are way more variations of personality.
I agree. I agree. I agree with you on that. But I feel like this one color is like your core. It's supposed to be your base. And that's all I have to say. OK.
That's we should have taken selfies with our colors. We should have.
I don't know why we did it. Well, I don't know either because we were trying to get out of the mall.
Well, I was tired of being at the mall. Yeah, I don't.
That's the part where I said it's probably because we were trying to get out of the mall.
Because guess what? I don't like shopping. I know. I was like, I got to get.
We did stop by the LaBoubou store and I want one of those. But I don't want to pay $40 for it.
We walked into that store and I immediately walked out.
Pop Mart. Yep. Yeah. It was a tiny place. It was. I felt immediately like I was packed in there. There was so many people and it was like wall to wall stuff. It was very.
It was. I was very overstimulated.
I get that. It was it's very bright and colorful in there. And there's a lot of things in little small boxes. And I said, no. But did you see those those taller art statues? Yeah. Those are rad. They were expensive. I know, but they are super cool. One of my favorite artists, that street artist that I like, he does some of those figurines like that. I would love to have one of those on display. I don't know where I think it's so cool.
Yeah, but. It's such a cool sculpture. I don't know why. I think they're so different.
I don't know. There's there's the dude who does like the they look like the dead mouse head, the DJ dead mouse. Yeah, they like their little bears. They kind of look like that. And there's a whole bunch of those two. And they're just a vinyl hard vinyl like that. So cool. And again, they're like three to six hundred dollars a piece.
Yeah, we're not going to get one of those. Oh, I know, but they're really cool. What I need to do is figure out how to make them. There you go. Make my own. Sure.
Sure. Go for it. Yeah. They're really cool. And they're like what, like 18 inches tall or something. They're really cool. Anyway, go for it. I'll make one in nurturing.
I was just going to say your color personality says that you're imaginative. Yeah. So go for it. No, I think mine said that.
You weren't even listening to yourself. I never got what happened four minutes ago. Come on.
Get with it. I can't. Can't be bothered. OK, well, then don't. This is cool. If you are an aspiring writer. Am I? Well, you're not yet, but you could be. OK. You are a really good writer and you enjoy writing. I do. James Patterson, the author, do you know him?
Yeah, sure. He writes a lot of books. There's a lot of James Patterson books I see at the library and at book sales all the time.
Yes. He recently launched something called Go Finish Your Book. What's that? It's a campaign and he helps budding authors get up to $50,000 to help them finish their manuscript. Oh, interesting. So he just announced the 12 winners for this year.
So you'll have to wait till next year if you're into this. But it's a program that he started that's like, yeah, I want to give away $50,000 to help people finish writing their book. Well, that's huge. I think that's cool.
So Go Finish Your Book.
He says there are many incredible stories out there that never get written because life gets in the way and I want to give these writers a little time, a little space and a push to say your voice matters. Now, Go Finish Your Book. Wow. That's cool, right? Yeah. I think that's really cool. I thought so too. How much? $50,000.
That's a good amount. And he gave... How much does it cost to make a book? I don't know.
Well, I think the idea is that he's like, if life is in the way and maybe your job gets in the way... Here's a little cushion so that you can have time to finish. Do you know what I'm saying? Sure.
I'm just looking it up. In general, the cost of writing a book very significantly from almost nothing for self-written books to over $100,000 to hire a ghost writer. Really? While the actual writing can be free, most costs come from the editing, design and marketing expenses needed to produce a professional, publishable book. So the cost of a beginner freelance ghost writer is between $10,000 and $25,000. A professional mid-level writer is $25,000 to $50,000. If you're going to hire a ghost writer, you can expect to spend a bunch of money on editing a lot.
So he just awarded 12 people this grant is what they're calling it. And there were hundreds of submissions and they're all working on books and genres ranging from Wham! Wars to graphic novels.
Cool. One author is working on a short story collection and she was a recipient. And she said, I just wanted to write a short, meaningful, that powerful book that sheds light on friendship, family and disability. Oh, wow.
And she said, this grant came to me as an extremely generous, much needed burst of motivation and a boost of confidence. That's really neat. I know. I think so too. So if you're a budding author and you need a little bit of some push, go check this out. It's called Go Find Your, Go Finish Your Book.
Is he doing more of them? Yes, he is.
They've just, he just did the one for this year, but you can do it next year. You can apply for next year.
Well, go apply. If you're trying to write a book and you need some money to help make it happen, that's pretty awesome.
James Patterson is there to help you.
That's cool. And it's go, go finish your book. Your book. All right.
Now go finish your book. Go finish your book. We want to read it.
All of us. That's right. Go write it.
I have a friend who is writing a book. I knew that. I read his prologue. It's very good. Okay. I'm excited to read more.
Nice. Go finish your book. What's it about?
Is it an autobiography? No. What's it? Is it a novel? It's a.
Famous memoir. It's a fantasy. Okay. All right.
Not about butterflies.
Okay. I didn't think it would have been, but okay. Is that a thing? Would it have been about butterflies? No. What does that have to do with anything?
When he was, this is going to be another case of me not listening. Oh, here we go. When he was initially telling me about it, I swear I heard him say something about butterflies and then he said, would you read my prologue? And I said, yeah. And then I said, he's like, I said, who else do you want to read it? My whole family will read it. And I said, Beck, do you want to read this?
And he goes back said, what's it about? I said, butterflies. I swear he said that. And then so that's been a running joke where he's like, it's not about butterflies. I don't know.
It's not about butterflies. Got it. It's about something else. I hope there's a butterfly or two in there just so that you can be like, I told you it was about butterflies.
I'm really bad at listening.
How can we help? I don't know. Get rid of some grudges. No, never. I saw a question the other day about what's on top of your fridge and people were commenting all kinds of different things. Like if you ask the question about if somebody came in and stole whatever was on top of your fridge, like what would you lose?
My chalkboard.
Oh, no.
The little tin can of pens. Yeah. Yeah. My vitamins.
Oh, no. So people store their cereal boxes up there a lot of times when you were a kid, right?
No, we didn't. We did that in our house. We did. Our kids were a little. Yes.
I don't remember that. Yeah, we did. Well, apparently it's a real bad place to store your cereal. Well, the top of the refrigerator is warm or even hot and the heat can prevent the is the is what does this say? The heat is prevented from escaping by too many boxes and there's a chance that your fridge won't cool its contents properly
because they're acting as like a heat radiator on top. I wonder if that's bad for my vitamins.
I'm wondering if that's what I'm thinking. Maybe we shouldn't be storing stuff up there, except for maybe some blankets that you want to keep nice and cozy. No, it's bad for your fridge. Don't.
And also gross blankets on top of your fridge.
Yeah, keep them cozy. Come on, Josh. Come on. It also says that there are some chemicals that are in the coating of cereal boxes that could let off hazardous fumes because of the heat as well. I didn't know any of this. I didn't either. The heat from the fridge can also speed up the cereals expiration date because it's all warm in there. The things I'm learning.
We don't store our cereal boxes up there. I know. But I do store my vitamins up there.
Food experts say that taking the cereal bag out of the box, writing the best by date on the bag and putting it in an airtight storage container is your best move for keeping your cereal fresh. Take it out of the box.
Okay. In general, get it out of the box. Put it in a tube, a cereal tube. They called it an airtight storage container, but I like calling it a cereal tube.
That sounds gross. Tube. Yeah, let me get the cereal tube.
Yeah, you guys want some cap and crunch from my cereal tube?
We have our cereal in some boxes in the pantry. I don't know how old that cereal is. I bet that cereal is probably pretty old. Yeah. Yeah. Which, which box?
I bet there's some Cheerios, some Honeydew Cheerios in there.
I think there's some special K.
Do you think they got some weevils by now? Oh, for sure. You think so? For sure. How do weevils happen? Oh, are weevils there and then they appear or do weevils get in?
Weevils wobble, but they don't fall down. No, that's weevils. But where do weevils come from? I don't know. Where do weevils come from?
They come from infested packaged goods like grain, cereals and pasta, or they can enter homes from nearby outdoor infestations via cracks and crevices. Ew, gross. And once inside, they lay eggs in stored food and the larvae hatch and feed on the food, causing a widespread pantry infestation. There's a rice weevil. It's capable of flight and can invade from neighboring crops and fields. How about that? Weevils. Gross. They are gross. I'm looking at pictures of them. They're nasty. They're weird little beetles. I don't like them.
Okay. Well, you're the one that brought them up.
So we will get out of my home. Somebody should write a song about that. You can. Oh, you don't know the song. I do not know the song. There's already a song. Is there? I was quoting a lyric from the song. Yeah. There's a song about bullweevils. It's a hit.
It sounds like it.
We might want to move your vitamins. Yeah. I don't think warm fridge with the vitamins is the right place. We probably should put those. I bet it says on the bottle store in a cool dry place.
Sure, it probably does. And you're like putting them in a hot, humid area. Here. Go here.
Hey. Hey. It's Friday. Yes. It's a Friday edition of would you rather this or that?
This is the last back to school one.
I think I'll do. I think that's time.
It's time to retire back to school. Well, I feel there were some schools that started this week, but I think you're right. I think everybody's back in session now. I think so. So last back to school. Would you rather, would you rather sit through a boring assembly every day or take a surprise test every week?
All right. I'm going with the assembly. Yeah. Yeah. Why? I'm out of class. I was fine. I was thinking that everybody's there. Sometimes they're fun. Sometimes they're not. But at least you're not doing any work. Yeah, but I'm not doing a test. So exactly. And it's like the whole school is like, we got to go to an assembly. And it used to be like an elementary school. They'd line you up in the hall and you're like, here we go. Going to the gym.
Yeah. Everybody look, those that other class, they're all lined up too. And then you'd walk to the gym and then in like junior high and high school. It was like, oh, we all got go find your buddies. Yep. Hey, there's an assembly today. Meet me at my locker. You'd be like, cool. And then you'd roll in with your homies and be like, what are we doing? Like, oh, it's a pep rally. Awesome. Let's go sit down. Cool.
Sports. Go team.
Yeah. I'm not in class. I'm here to cheer on football. Oh, basketball is going to state. Let's go. Go get them. It doesn't involve me, but I'm here. But at least I'm not in class.
And I'm not in class and I'm hanging out with my buds and we're cheering on the basketball team that none of us play. Hey, later on this weekend, are we going paintballing again? Yep. Cool. All right. See you there. Yep. Talk to you after shop.
Pizza and sleepovers at my place. It's like, what? I get you. What are we doing?
I do like, here's the thing. I like the, I'm less about the pep rally. I think the pep rally is silly. I think it's old fashioned. Okay. I do like the, hey, let's go out in the hall as they're leaving to go do the big, the big game. I like that. What do they call that?
I don't know. I like that thing.
I don't know what it's called. Does it have a name? I like that way better where they're like, all right, we're going to go out in the hallway, hallgathering. The team's going to walk by and we're going to cheer and clap as they leave to go to the buses, cheer them on. And then we're going to get back to class. I like those. They're quicker.
I don't know. I still get the same thing. Does it have a name? Like a walk out? That's different.
I don't know what it's called, but I like that. What are you picking?
I'm picking the assembly because at least I'm not in class. Yeah. And I have test anxiety. So I'm not taking the test. No, I sure don't. I like a quiz, a personality quiz. That's not a test.
Are you waiting to eat something?
What are you doing? I was hungry. It's my edamame.
When I'm waiting, I almost took a bite. You're waiting to finish what you rather. I know you do that.
But I didn't because I forgot that I was on the radio. Well, here we are. So now I'm just waiting.
It's in my hand. You keep putting it up to your mouth like, I'm just going to eat this now. Because I want it. All right. Well, it's rather this is that. Go eat your edamame.
If I asked you what is the most organized room in our house, what would you say?
Most organized room, I would say currently. Oddly, I'd say the garage. I would agree with you. I would say that is not what I would have said just a few months ago. But I and it still has some stuff to be done on my workbench. And there's like, there's stuff like I've got to start thinking about motorcycle storage and things like that.
Like where am I going to put it for the winter? Like there's a few things that need to be resolved before then. Yeah. But all in all, I'd say that's probably the most organized spot in the house. My studio is quite organized, but not under the stairs. I have kind of a pile of stuff that I need to kind of go through.
I threw some stuff in there the other day. In my studio. Would you throw in there? Stuff. Why? Because it didn't belong upstairs anymore.
Are you serious? Yeah. What is it? Stuff. Does it go there or did I bring it upstairs because I didn't want it down there? Unsure. Awesome. I'm going to tell you, there's, there's more than a 50% chance that whatever you put in there doesn't go in there.
Okay. Listen to me right now. When I tell you go in there, look around, tell me, I dare you to tell me when I put in there. I bet you won't know.
I bet you won't know. I dare you go home today and do that. Look around and be like, when she put in here, dare you. You don't think I'll be able to tell? Absolutely not.
You're, you're very confident about this. You sat back, you put an arm over your chair, like, like, yeah, try it.
See what happens. Like that's your attitude right now. Your body language is see what happens. Yeah. Yeah. What you're going to do about it. Like that's your whole mood right now.
You keep doing this flip up thing with your hand. Yeah. What? Say something. Exactly.
Okay. This is me daring you. Yeah.
What's that face? Good luck. You're never going to figure it out. Good luck. I bet I walk in and in two seconds I go that. Okay. Yeah. How about it? What do you think about that? Top that. Yeah, that's right.
Funny. That's hilarious. Okay. What is the least organized room in the house? Would you say the pantry? No. Yeah, for sure. The boys room. Oh, that doesn't even count as part of our house. Oh, okay. You've erased that room. I go in there. I don't go in there. I meant to say.
That is a, an 11 by 11 foot space. We don't, it doesn't exist. Nope. All right.
I only go in there when necessary and I get out.
So, excluding the boys room. As quickly as possible.
Excluding his bedroom. Yep. The pantry is not a room in and of itself. Fine. I mean, it is between two rooms. It's, it needs help. I built shelves in there and that wasn't enough. What else can we do?
I don't know. I don't, I need to get some storage containers, but I hate spending money on containers because it feels so stupid.
Well, we should have done that when we were in Utah during the Labor Day sale. That place can't contain me, by the way. They tried. Stop it. That was a good joke. The kids hated it. I hated it too.
This place can't contain me.
Container store. Get it?
Do you get it? Please explain it to me.
All right. So it's because you know, you're just, you don't really not know.
Okay. You have a challenge today. Yeah. The challenge has been delivered. Okay. You're supposed, you go into your studio and figure out what I put in there.
I'm going to go move four things in your craft room and I'm going to have you do the same thing. Fine. What four things did I move?
That's not fair because I have a lot of small things. Yeah. So do I.
And it's probably like a pile of pens. You know, like, yeah, these pens don't belong here. Take them downstairs. We'll find out. Yeah, we will. We will find out. All right. Let's wrap up the show.
Let's do it. Hope you had a great time today with us. Thanks for hanging out.
