This is wake up classy 97, the podcast. It's a replay of today's full show in about an hour or so. It's Tuesday, January 7th. On today's show, we kick off the show with early morning football talk. Now, normally, we talk about it later in the show, but this morning, I wanted to get it out of the way early, and, it might not have gone as well as I'd hoped.
There's a new way to book camping at state parks in Idaho. Idaho time, they call it. Idaho time. Josh tied a bunch of lucky flies for fishing. Now you think all my flies are lucky.
I don't. No. But you should because that would help me catch more fish. Confidence in me. You know?
You need the confidence. You need the help. I'm supporting you. I have a big issue with fitting rooms and taking off my shoes. Yeah.
I learned about that for the first time. That's new info. We had a therapy session. Mhmm. Tips to feel more confident at the gym.
More therapy. I need them. We're going bowling. That's a different kind of therapy. Josh can't figure out what to spend his free money on.
What's going on with that? Why can't I figure it out? I don't know. I I didn't have a problem. There's a bunch of cool new gadgets at CES this weekend, consumer electronics Show.
Show. Yeah. And it's happening today through Friday, in Vegas if you wanna go. I do wanna go. I would like to go too, but it's a a bit of a drive.
And it's probably expensive to get in. I bet it's not. I bet it's not bad. Do you have to wear a cosplay? No.
You don't. I'm cosplaying as a VCR. No. It's consumer electronics, not Comic Con. Oh, yeah.
You just show up as is? I think so. Yeah. Probably in a polo. A polo?
Yeah. Sounds like a polo event. There were some bobcats frozen to a polo in Kansas. Just like in a Christmas story. And it's a Rot Girl winter.

Just search for wake up classy 97 everywhere. Here's today's show. Hi there. Hi there. How are you, Chantel?
I'm fine. Why are you being weird? What am I what am I doing this weird? I just asked how you were doing, Chantel. Yeah.
That's weird. Don't do that. How are you? Why is that weird? I don't know.
You never ask that. I ask how you are all the time. Yeah. But you don't say my name like that. How are you, Chantel?
Stop. What's like that. It sounds so formal. It's your first name. Yeah.
I get it, but you don't ever say it like that. It's weird. Good morning, Chantel. How are you, Chantel? Why does that weird you out?
Chantel, it's your name. I get it, but the way you're saying it is bizarre. What's the point? Is there a point to the you doing that? No.
I was asking how you were doing. That's it. That that's all. I just wanted to say good morning. Good morning, Josh.
Good morning, Chantel. Good morning, Joshua. Okay. Now you've gone too far. You've gone too far.
Let's talk a little football. It's early. But let's kick off with a little bit of football. I can't. Well, I know you can't, but here's the here's there's 2 things that I wanted to talk about.
Okay. Regular season's over. During the regular season, a a few coaches were let go. The Jets fired their coach. The Saints fired their coach, and the Bears fired them, fired their coach.
Interim coach. Let's talk about that guy. Like that guy? No. That guy?
No. That guy, no? No. Chantel says no. Oh, I don't even know his name.
Guess what? I'm not gonna take the time to learn because that guy The interim coach? My time. Yeah. Hopefully, he doesn't get made into the, full yelling at his players all the time.
I don't care for that. So then, the patriots fired their coach. The jaguars fired their coach. However, the New York Giants, they only won 3 games this season. Oh, no.
They are not going to fire their coach. Why? They said they're not going to. I don't know why they're gonna keep them. They said, we're keeping you.
Well, maybe it's not the coach's fault. They're terrible. Okay. Maybe it's that. Maybe that's why they said we're gonna keep you around.
But that means there's a lot of shakeups coming to the NFL with with all this coaching k. Stuff. Yeah. Because they gotta get this sorted out in the off season. So these teams are working on that.
We've got the playoffs going on. And, do you who do you think is the top favorite to make it to the Super Bowl? The Chiefs. No. They're 2nd.
The top favorite. The Giants. No. Because you're talking about that. No.
No. Well, I know the Giants. Only won 3 games, the whole Chiefs. Favorite. They're not in the playoffs.
I don't know. I gotta look at who's in the playoffs. Give me just a minute. Let me find a picture. Alright.
Okay. The top favorite? Yeah. Who's the favorite to make it to the Super Bowl? Now this is according to, BetMGM.
I would say the Packers. A lot of people like the Packers. No. I've got a list of the top three teams. Kansas City's number 2.
Just tell me then. The Detroit Lions are the favorite. Okay. Then the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens are 3rd. Oh, and the Buffalo Bills are 4th.
So those are the, top 4 favorites to make it to the Super Bowl. I like I like those teams, not the Chiefs, but I like the other teams. I would be sad to see those other teams. No. I agree.
The longest shot to make it to the Super Bowl, who's at the bottom of the list? The Jets. No. No. In the playoffs.
Oh, in the playoffs. For the teams that are in the playoffs Alright. I'm looking. Who is the The Broncos. No.
The Pittsburgh Steelers. They are the lowest expected to make it. So if they make it to the Super Bowl, it'll be a surprise to everyone. That's what that means. I'm kinda surprised they're in the playoffs.
This has been fun where, there are, like, 10 teams still in this thing, and you named a bunch that weren't even in the playoffs. That was my favorite part of this whole conversation. No. I named only the Giants and the Jets. Yeah.
I didn't know that you were speaking specifically of the playoff teams. A lot of people like those teams. You didn't Yeah. You didn't specify. Okay.
You didn't set the boundaries out the gate. That's fine. That's fine. It's early football talk. I said it was gonna be a little bit hard to to handle, but you made it.
So good morning, Chantel. Good morning, Josh. Yesterday was a bit of a big day for the Idaho State Parks and Recreation Department. Was it? Yeah.
So, across the state, we've got several Idaho State Parks, including, like, Henry's Lake and Harriman, Massacre Rocks, Lake Walcott. Oh, Lake Walcott. That's where I used to spend Easters. Oh, you used to Easter in Lake Walcott? We did.
My family would go there all the time. How fancy. I knew you were rich. That is not rich. We oh, I'm sorry.
You would you would Easter in Lake Walcott? Josh, you make it sound like it's some it's Yeah. It's not. Yeah. It's not a I've seen that movie.
Someone carries a watermelon. No. It's not that. We were Eastering in Lake Walcott. No.
It's not. Bear Lake, Eagle Island. There's many, many, many, state parks. There's a bunch up in Panhandle as well. But the, the Department of Parks and Recreation on the state level has put out a brand new reservation website.
This is, in their in their statement, they said that the idea here is to modernize The idea here. And and put together a new system that went live yesterday. So I wanted to find out how it went. I was gonna reach out to somebody. I forgot, because I wanted to find out how their launch day went because a change like this can be a big deal.
But what they've done is they've launched, this new website that you can go to, the parks and recreation dot idaho dot gov. So if you wanna go camping or you wanna reserve your spot, oh, you know what? They've got a better a better website. Oh. Getoutside.idaho.gov.
I love it. Yeah. Getoutside.idaho.gov. That's awesome. And, you can you can book your camping, your lodging, if you're gonna stay in yurts, whatever, including Harriman.
So if you were gonna go snowshoeing or whatever yeah. That's where you would go to set up your reservations now is through this new website, which is which is kind of a big deal. But then as they kind of move on, what they've done is, like, now you can book through, like, Memorial weekend, and then, they're they've got kind of the staggered rollout. So right now, you can book through Memorial weekend, and then, as of today, you can book through June 30th. As of tomorrow, you can book through July 31st.
So they're kind of rolling out see. The calendar. So if you were looking to, like, book 4th July somewhere, tomorrow, you'll be able to book the state parks, if you were planning on staying in any of those. So, it's kind of interesting. They're also doing, a bunch of educational stuff about the state parks in there.
So it's, it's kind of a big new thing, and they're calling it Idaho time. Book your Idaho time Get outside Idaho. I know. I wanna go, outside I don't in the warm. I was just thinking today, every time it snows and every time it gets cold, I go, oh, why do I live here?
And then the summer comes and I go, oh, yeah. This is why I live here because I love Idaho in the summertime. Right. Although, we have gone snowshoeing and stayed in a yurt. Yes.
It was further south. Right. It wasn't at Herriman. No. We were we were We're close to Pocatello.
Town kinda by Incum. Yeah. And I loved it. I really like snowshoeing, and I love staying in those yurts. Now we went a couple of different times.
Yeah. One time we went with a guy who uses a fireplace to heat his home. That was a much more comfortable stay. Yeah. Because the other time we went with a wildland firefighter whose job it is to put fires out.
And, yeah, and he it was very cold. It was colder that it was colder that time. Yeah. It it's better to go with the with the guy who, builds fires than the guy who puts fires out. Yeah.
Yeah. I think so. Anyway, it's a good time. I don't know what my my point was. I'm sorry.
Well, I brought up yurts, and that's that's what happened. It was to get outside in Idaho because it's beautiful here. Even in the snow. Even though I don't love camping in the snow, I've done it. It's not my first choice.
Well, the new website, again, for Idaho time to reserve your stuff for the state parks, now through the end of June, you can you can reserve. It's, get outside dotidaho.gov. Okay. So I just went to that website, and it's I'm in a waiting room, and it says the event starts at 8. Oh, that's the other thing I forgot to tell you.
It starts at 8 o'clock this morning. Yes. That sounds about right. I've got an hour appointment. Says that, yeah, before you can move on.
So, so this is this is interesting as well. It sort of works like, the same way a ticket master type experience would work. So you have a waiting room, to get in to book your reservation. So it's kind of a first come, first serve thing. What I don't like is that they do have, the new system allows prices to drop during low demand periods and go up during high demand periods.
Mhmm. And I'm not really in love with that. I don't love that either. Be you know, good for the state to make some money, but I'm not really a big fan of, what is that called? Adjustable pricing.
Whatever they call that. I'm not a big huge fan of that. So the price adjustments help keep camping rates low during lower demand times with the higher rates offsetting the fees, and the new system is also mobile friendly, where the old system was not great at that. Because they used to use just the regular reservation thing that that everybody uses for campsite. So this new site is a new system, which is which is kind of a big deal.
It's the same system, that is used in South Carolina, South Dakota, Florida uses it. There's a bunch of different states that use this technology and Idaho's kinda getting, getting up to date with that. So Oh, right. Yeah. So good Idaho time.
There, but, yeah. I'm I'm a little, not stoked on the, priority pricing thing. Anyway, state parks, Idaho, Idaho State Parks and Recreation. If you want more details, get outside.idaho.gov. Get outside.
Get outside. Go outside. Well, the Children's Museum of Indianapolis is celebrating its 100th birthday. Congratulations. That's pretty big.
Right? In Indianapolis? Yeah. To celebrate, the museum donated 100 birthday cake kits to the Mid North Food Pantry, allowing families in need to enjoy a special treat on their birthdays. I saw those.
Those little birthday kits that you said? So this has, cake mix, icing, and candles. So if if, a family in need has a birthday coming up and they wanna bake a cake and celebrate, they have everything they need to make that happen, which I think is really special. Yeah. The museum's Centennial celebration birthday kits, they call them.
They drive and they did a big drive, and the community donated the items. Cake mix is rarely donated to food pantries, so this gave Oh. Yeah. There's a big gap, for that. So this gave the food pantry, something they don't often have.
And one of the leaders of the food pantry named Betsy Morse, was very thankful for the big donation and pointed out the impact the museum has on the community. She said, we think families are going to love celebrating their birthdays with a with a sweet treat, and we express our congratulations to the Children's Museum on making a difference in our community for so many years. 100 years and 100 birthday cake cake. 100 years. Yeah.
Pretty great. So some good news to get you going. You're doing some fly tying on Sunday Mhmm. Or your flock for your fish? Yeah.
Yeah. No. I'm not tying them for, like, horses or anything. No. I'm I'm tying flies for for fishing.
That's right. Or that's a horsefly joke. I got it. You got it. Alright.
When I when I went downstairs and looked in the garbage, it looked like I forgot you had been dying flies, but I you there's all kinds of feathers and different things that you put in there. Well, when you Squirrel tails No. There's some naturally harvested. No. No.
There's zonker strips, but there's there's fur involved, and there's, feathers involved, and there's little thread pieces, and there's little sparkle dubbing stuff that is just scrap stuff. And so, yeah, I scrape it off after I've tied a few into my hand, and I put it in the garbage can. But, yeah, the feathers kinda look like little bugs. Yeah. So I went in the bathroom, looked in the garbage.
It kinda freaked me out a a bit. So what is that? It's just feathers. Just feathers. Yeah.
And then I figured it out. But you said out loud to me and Emery, oh, that's the most ties wait. What did you say? Most flies I've tied in one setting. That's a Is it one sitting?
Yeah. Yeah? Emery's response. Oh, that's cute. Yeah.
Yeah. No. I've I've, I really found a a pattern that I like. I wanna fish a lot, and so I, I tied a whole bunch of them in a couple different sizes, and I was pretty excited to show them off. Do you?
You make me laugh, though when you look at them because you're like, that looks pretty good. If I was a fish, I'd eat that. And I go, okay. I would. They're pretty.
If I was a fish, I'd eat that. There really is an art to tying flies, and it's they look really pretty. It's challenging for sure. And it's tiny. You have to have a magnifying glass.
I do. I was impressed even though Emery was not oh, that's cute. Yeah. Oh, good good for you. Now my question is this.
When you use the flies that you've tied Yeah. To fish Mhmm. Does the fish you don't get those flies back a lot of the time. Well, if I if I'm fishing well, I do. If I've tied them onto my line well, I do.
If I snag them in trees, sometimes they don't come back. But if I'm if I'm fishing well, I I don't lose them. Okay. Sometimes you you'll because you'll just pull them out of the fish. Well, yeah.
Right? Yeah. Just take it out of their out of their lip and put them back. No. No.
It's not like a worm situation. Like, there's a lot of times if you're if you're worm fishing, the fish will swallow the whole worm and hook and everything. And then if if you're a catch and release fisherman like me, that's a fish that's not gonna make it because it's got a hook in its guts. It's not great. Well I don't I don't fish that way.
I'm, like, it's it's in a lip or it's in a lip. Up in the nose a little bit. Yeah. Oh. That's fine.
So not in a And then I pull that out, and I put the fish back. And you keep the fly. Yeah. But I fish barbless too for that reason. Okay.
Other question. When you catch a fish Yeah. And it's with the tie that you've flied a fly that you've tied There you go. You pull the hook out. Uh-huh.
Put the fly back in your box. No. You don't? No. What do you do with it?
Fishing. If the fly is not damaged beyond repair, you keep fishing. Okay. I know. You're done fishing.
You put it back in your box. Oh, sure. Yeah. And then you're like, I caught 3 fish on this one. This is my lucky fly.
Okay. Could you do that? I could. Have you done that? No.
Maybe that's your whole problem. No. No. You gotta have a lucky fly. What the fish are eating every day might be different, and where you're fishing changes what what the, what the fish might be eating.
There's a whole bug science. There's an entomology. I know there is. I've heard all about it. Yeah.
You've told me all about it. Cycle of a bug, and you've gotta match it. Oh, I know. You've told me all about it. And where you fish I'm just saying water temperature and the depth of the water, all of that Maybe.
All of that has to be calculated into your fishing. Save the flies that you've hooked the fish on Yeah. And just use those because that's your lucky fly. They're not lucky flies. You don't know that.
It could be. That could be your lucky fly. I guess. Lucky fly. Where's my lucky fly?
But I tied multiples of them for for the reasons of losing them or they get damaged because fish have teeth. Yeah. I get it. And they chomp into these things because they think it's a meal. And so and it's just feather and fur and thread, and so they get chewed up.
Oh, what a terrible that's terrible. If I'm a fish and I'm swimming by and I'm like, I'm hungry, this bug looks nice. Yeah. What And then I go What if you're like, oh, that's a nice slice of pizza. And then all of a sudden, you're getting yanked away from everything.
Yeah. Yeah. Woah. Yeah. See, but then I put them back.
So then they can go back and they can be like, guys, don't, don't grab those ones. They're spicy. You know? Oh, I know. Those ones those ones are trick food.
Trick food is the saddest. I would be so sad if I thought I was eating a piece of pizza and it turned out to be Trick food. Trick food. Yeah. This is trick pizza.
Lame. I'm just saying, Josh. Uh-huh. What are you saying? I just have a box of Lucky Flies.
Okay. All my flies are Lucky Flies. That's why I catch so many fish. Because all my flies are lucky flies. Okay.
Whatever you say, bud. Yeah. You're just as impressed as Emery about that. Yeah. Cool.
We all needed some jeans, the whole family. So we went jean shopping. I had one pair of jeans. You said they looked filthy. You said those jeans look filthy.
Well, and they were washed. They'd been washed, but you would warn them so much. You'd use them so much. They were they were real broken in. You needed a new pair of jeans.
Comfortable. Yeah. I know. You needed a new pair of jeans. They have a a little spot.
You know how people buy fashion nice fancy fashion jeans that have, like, holes worn in them and stuff? Yeah. Mine were just actually worn down. I know. And, when I would go outside, there was a little thread spot that's probably about the size it's smaller than a quarter on my left leg.
Uh-huh. And the cold air would get in there. Oh. And it was chilly. I didn't like that.
Well, now you have a new pair of jeans. Listen. Jeans are known for their thermal qualities. So, you know, they were real cold. Here's my question about jeans.
Uh-huh. I am 5 foot 4 inches. That means when I go to buy jeans, they're always way too long. It doesn't matter what my waist size is. And and They're always pants aren't done in in inseam and waist.
No. They're just done in waist. Here's this is what I wanna talk about because you can go to the store and you look for your pants that's I need a 30 by 30. Well, that's a small pair of pants, but yes. By 38.
I don't wear a 40 either. That's a big pant. You look by your height and width of waist. Right? Not your height.
But, like, you My inseam and my waist. Yeah. It does the first number if I say I want a pair of 30 by 32? Waist is first, inseam is second. Okay.
Inseam is gonna give you your length. That is not how ladies' jeans are. Now that's not true for every pair of jeans because there are jeans that have both sizes on them. But, typically, if I'm looking for a pair of jeans, it's one size. And it's not my waist size.
Oh, no. I don't know where that size comes from. Okay. Here's what I found out. Because I wanted to do a little bit of research on this.
Okay. Women's pants often don't have dedicated inseam sizes listed No. Because of the greater variation in female body shapes compared to men, making it more complex to cater to different leg lengths with just one size number. This means a single women's size needs to accommodate a wider range of hip and thigh measurements, making a separate inseam size less practical for most brands to manage inventory wise. I get that.
Because they're such varying body shapes. Mhmm. I get that. But that's that's why. There's no reason they can't.
They just don't because it's it's inconvenient. I assumed that was why. That's not good that's not good business for them to carry a whole bunch of sizes that they're not gonna sell because people can't. But my problem is that every and people are gonna say, just go find a tailor that can tailor your jeans. Wanna deal with that.
No. I don't have time for that or money for that. You know how much a tailor costs? I don't know. I've never used one, but I bet it's expensive.
I just need pants that are gonna not I hold them up before I even try them on, and they are dragging on the floor. We can't see. I am Yeah. Not a tall person, like I said. So here's the thing, though.
And and I I don't remember who I heard this from, but but I heard this from somebody who said whenever they go pant shopping, it's like a whole day's ordeal because they have to try on so many different pairs to find to find pants that fit. For 1, brands themselves are inconsistent in their sizing. Yep. So you could grab 3 pairs of pants off the shelf. They're all the same size, and one might fit Uh-huh.
And one might not. That's true. And so then you end up thinking you need to go up a whole size or something when really you just needed to try more pairs of pants on. Ugh. And You hate it.
I hate it. Hate trying on the clothes. Hate trying on clothes. You you would rather go back and do a return than try on the clothes while you're there. Absolutely.
I don't understand that. I don't understand trying on clothes. I don't like fitting rooms. They're always dirty. You have to take off your shoes, so you're standing on the dirty floor That's interesting.
In your socks. There's nowhere to sit sometimes because sometimes I just wanna, like, sit down to put on my pants. Alright. That's interesting too. Don't say that.
I I just am learning a lot right now. And then you have to put all of your stuff back on. After you try on the clothes, you have to put it all back on. Just walk out. It just takes so much time.
I Really? Don't enjoy trying on clothes. It it's no. Number 1 of my hate list. That's probably it's probably up there on my hate list.
No kidding. Yes. I really enjoy it. I hate it. I think it'd be a good time to just go try on different outfits.
You do? Yes. And cease because you you might try a style that you go, I didn't think I would like that or how that looks on me, but that actually is pretty good. That sounds like death to me. No kidding.
Yeah. How about that? How about it, indeed? I'll never go do that with you. You're gonna have to find somebody else.
I would absolutely rather buy the thing, take it home, put it on when it's more convenient for me Yeah. When I'm already barefoot. Find out that it doesn't fit and take it back and make another trip to the store. Yes. No way.
Yes way. Yes way. 20 whatever years of knowing you. It's new new info. No.
You don't. No. I know you didn't like the fitting room. I didn't know how deep it ran. Uncovered something.
Hate it. Hate hate it. What do you know about that? And then you're always like, just go try it on. Yeah.
I'm not. And you say, just go try it on. You push push push push, and then I get mad, and I go, fine. I'm gonna go try it on. And then what happens?
And then the whole time in the dressing room, I'm cussing you out. You're mad at me. Yeah. I am. Because I go, you made me take off my shoes, and now I'm standing on the dirty floor in my socks.
And I'm gonna have to put back on my shoes. How about that? And then I'm mad at you the rest of the day because you made me try on those clothes. That's really interesting. Is that every fitting room?
There's not one fitting room that you're like, I I don't mind trying on clothes at that place. I'm trying to think of places I've been where I've tried on clothes. I mean, yes. There's a couple of places where I'm like, okay. That's a nice fitting room.
Well, let's go there. But still, I don't I don't like taking off my shoes because then I have to put back on my shoes. Is it it's the shoes that are the hang ups? Process of taking off and putting back on my shoes. Yeah.
The shoes are the hang ups? Yeah. Kinda. You've mentioned the shoes a lot and the standing there in your sock feet. Yeah.
Those two things really getting at you. Interesting. You don't like having to take off your shoes? Okay. Go on.
I always just feel bad about myself when I try on clothes. Alright. Because then I look and I go, something's off with this mirror. This is Come on. I don't like the way I look in the the stress or these pants.
Then then you go try something different. Yeah. And then you usually have to go try on a bigger size, and then I go, now I'm feeling even worse about this. Something completely different. That's what I'm saying.
What if you find out that you really look good in a in a pantsuit? I don't know. I don't know what it is. Wow. Really tapped into something.
That's fascinating. No. It's not that fascinating. I'm pretty fascinated. I'm not that fascinated.
Okay. I don't mean to brag or anything, but I am killing it in the new year. Okay. What happened? What happened?
Oh. What are you doing? Yesterday, I ate my vegetables. Oh, look at you. Yesterday, I went to the gym.
Nuh-uh. I did. Yeah. You, you went to the now did you and the kids go? Yes.
So you and the kids went to the gym. I was, I was at the scout meeting, so I was not able to go to the gym at the same time. I had other obligations, but you, you guys went to the gym. Yes. And what'd you do with the gym?
Oh, I did so many things. What'd you do? I did some elliptical. Okay. How long did you elliptical?
I'd say a good 10 minutes. Good enough. You got the heart rate going? Did you did you do did you move quick? What what'd you do?
I, yes, I moved. I'm yes. Alright. You did movement. I did movement, and then I went and we did some of the weights.
Some of the free weights or the machines, what you end up doing? Oh, wow. I know. Here's here's here's what happens at the gym. Mhmm.
I always feel like it is a place that I don't belong in. K. Are you trying to, exercise and and improve, movement and physique and, and strength? Yes. Well, then that's the place you should be.
I get it. But I go there, and I go, oh, all of these people look so fit and healthy. And they've got, like, great looking leggings, and they look great. And then I come I see. Does this machine work?
I just I feel like I don't know what I'm doing there. I feel like I don't know how any of the machines work. I feel like a total dork. Okay. So how do you I feel like everybody is looking at me going They're not.
At one point, Emery even said to me, you need dad here. And I said, why? And she said, because he helps you with your confidence. And I went, I'm feeling great. Look at me.
I came to the gym. I was the one who was like, hey. I'm going to the gym. Who's coming with me? K.
Put on my I you did. You put on your workout stuff. You went to the gym. In the cold. Step cold.
I understand. It's a big deal. K. It was a big deal for me. In the dark because it was after 5.
That's not that big a deal. I know. But after dark, in the cold, I don't leave the house. Alright. So you you you went in the evening Yeah.
And you went to the gym, and you did some some exercise. Mhmm. Are you gonna be consistent? Are you gonna try again tonight? What's the to Emery, I said, okay.
I'm trying to ramp us all up because it was good. It felt good. I always feel good after I go to the gym, and I slept well. I I felt great. I did a plank.
Look at me doing planks. Okay. I did a plank. I did some leg presses. I felt great.
And in the car ride home, I went, that was awesome. Thanks for coming with me because it's nice to have, like, a support team, and it's nice to have encouragement from people. Like Sure. I said, here's the thing. I go, I'm really good about going for about a week, and then I start to make excuses about not going.
And I said, what we need to do, we need some accountability from each other. So we need to rally together so that we can encourage each other to go. And I said, this is us. We're just we're easing into it. We're easing into it.
Alright. So check this out. Say I want so I will say I will say, if you're feeling out of place at the gym, this is a common experience, especially if you're new to the environment or self conscious. Here are a few things that you can do to help with this. You can start small and go during off peak hours.
That's a way to begin with shorter sessions and and visit during less crowded times. I feel like it was a less peak hour Okay. Good. That went. It was still pretty busy, but it is the new it is early in the year.
So also gives you a calmer atmosphere, which can make it easier for for you to familiarize yourself with the gym. You've gotta go more than once every so often. Right? I get it. K?
It says you should have a plan before you arrive. Know what exercises you wanna do ahead of time Okay. Because that way, you you don't feel lost and unsure once you're there. Okay. So have an idea.
That definitely would help because we kinda wandered around, and I think everybody was like, look at these yay hoos. Okay. They don't know what they're doing. True. Everybody else seemed to have a plan, but we did not have a plan.
It says you can also use workout apps, check out some YouTube videos, or there are staff that can answer questions for you at the gym that will be happy to say, here's how you properly use this piece of equipment so you don't hurt yourself Yeah. And so that you can have the right form. Says you could also work out with a friend, a buddy, hire a trainer. That can make the whole experience less intimidating. Wear comfortable, confidence boosting gear is a big deal.
You talked about people in their fancy leggings or whatever, that they were wearing. You can you can wear something you feel good in. That will help boost your confidence. Focus on yourself and not others is a big one here. Most people are focused on their own workouts.
They're not judging you. Okay. Listen to music, listen to a podcast, block out distractions to keep you in your own zone. That was my other that was my other problem is that my headphones were dead. I didn't I didn't know that was a bummer.
That was a bummer. Are you charging them now? No. I forgot too. Come on now.
Learn proper form and use of equipment. Again, it says feeling knowledgeable. Blah blah blah. Okay. Set small achievable goals.
You could join group classes or community programs. We got it. We know. We know what to do. You told me to say.
You said say. I know, but maybe a little long winded. The big one here, easy. The big one is to be patient and kind to yourself. Building confidence and comfort takes time.
Oh, I'm not gonna give up. I'm gonna still go because, again, I am getting older, and my spasticity What's that? The ability to have flexibility and movement. Spasticity? Yeah.
Like, the the stiffness of your body. Spasticity. It is when you feel stiff, heavy, and difficult to move. Okay. I'd I've never heard that word.
Spasticity. Yeah. I've heard of elasticity. This is the opposite of that. Well, the point I'm trying to make is that that my my bones and my joints aren't getting any younger, and so I've gotta I gotta start moving more.
Okay. And I'm I'm determined. Well, good. I've got a goal in mind. Do you?
I do. I'm excited about your goals. That's great. Day 1. Day 1.
The big Monday. Check. Killing it. Well done. On to day 2.
How's it going so far? Good. Great. Good. Yeah.
I saw you did studio yoga. I did do some yoga this morning. In the studio? Studio. Yoga.
Exactly. Well done. Thanks. Good job, you. Ugh.
Killing it in 2025. Alright, Chantel. We have a special guest in the studio. It's Justin Hey. Justin, from 105 the hockey.
Formerly of Middays on class 87th. Your studio is so boring now. Because it's not all the fun stuff. Yeah. You did not wait you guys did not wait till 12th night to take down your decorations.
We took it down, right before New Year's. Right? Yeah. Because we didn't wanna come back from vacation and didn't have Christmas. Well, something, very exciting is coming up for you and I tomorrow, Chantel.
We are we have a Josh and Chantel date night. We're going to Fat Cats. We're gonna do some bowling Bowling. Which is exciting, and we have a resident bowler here. Look at your shirt.
I mean, look. You you you're sponsored. You are a pro bowler. Sponsored. You're a sponsored pro bowler.
I am not sponsored. Okay. But you you, you did bring gifts. I did. Well, Josh came in.
Was it it was yesterday and said, hey, JP, by the way, do you have a bowling ball that I could use so I can beat her at bowling? Yeah. Well, I thought that might help. You're never gonna beat me at bowling. Here we go.
Well, you come from a bowling family. Yeah. I grew up in a bowling alley. Legit. I can't believe you don't have your own bowling ball.
That's a disappointment. That's because I don't really like bowling. Blasphemy. Because you grew up in the bowling alley. Is that why?
Yeah. I can understand. I certainly can. Nights on nights on nights. So, I brought a bowling ball in for when I was injured.
I bowled normally, I bowled left handed, but I bowled right handed while I was injured. So I I brought a bowling ball in for Josh. Okay. And we checked, and he can get his sausage fingers into They fit? They fit.
Good. They fit. So I also brought one in for you because I, for some reason, have a 10 pound ball sitting around. So let's see let's see if your sausage fingers will fit. There you go.
Have sausage fingers. Oh, yeah. You do. Uh-huh. We we got Okay.
But the Is it a fit? This is Like a glass slipper? This is a little bit long. I don't know what this reach is called from the from the ring finger to your thumb. That's called that particular bowling ball is called conventional.
So it might be a little bit long for your little little hands. This is also too heavy. That's £10. I know. I like the I like the smaller ones.
Oh, so when it hits the pins, it goes, tink. Yes. Oh my goodness. This is not how I bowl. Oh, good lord.
You are not a bowler. I I know. So okay. So I brought one of I brought one of my own in for Josh, and this is actual fingertip bowling ball. So which I think so it's got the little, little rings.
Inserts in it. But, yeah, I mean, you can have fingertip without the rubber insert. But Is that for, like, the curve balls and all that? Pro bowlers. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. My brother is a pretty good bowler, and he does all of the curve ball. I don't know. He's got his own bowling ball and stuff.
I don't know if he's got his fingertip bowling thing. I don't know. Well k. I don't know. Mhmm.
He probably does. Just make sure the thumb doesn't come out because the thumb Oh. Oh, the thumb is the the rubber insert thing. Yeah. I wasn't prepared for that.
I didn't yeah. You'll be fine. I think I will be fine. I'm I'll be alright. So Yes.
Listen. I used to be on the league. See? Yeah. I tried to get you guys on the league here.
That's right. I'll be your best. I was all for it. It was Josh who couldn't It was the night. It was the scheduling.
If it wasn't on the Monday night, it might work out. But in high school, I was on a league, and we went to state a couple of times. So I actually coached the state championship team. I don't mean to brag, but 165. Alright.
165? Top score for me. Okay. Okay. Alright.
Now now you're talking to a a sponsored pro bowler. I am not sure. Every time he gets hands up to a lane. K. I mean, I do represent Bowlify, but I'll just throw that out there.
Yeah. Yeah. Right? Yeah. And how many, bowling balls do you own?
I don't know. Too many? Yeah. I've gotten rid of quite a few of them, but I think I'm somewhere around 50 right now. Okay.
Wow. See? Sponsored. Oh, no. You toured the the the factory.
Well, yeah, I went down to so Storm is out of Brigham City, and they are the largest bowling ball company on the planet. So they make they make the most bowling balls in the world. They sell the most bowling balls in the world. Well, I mean, unofficially, from what I know. I mean, they're they're they're huge.
So, yeah, that was pretty cool. And when they sponsored you, did you get a lot of perks or Yeah. I was down there. My buddy Steve said, hey. Take anything you want.
Yeah. You're you're sponsored. So, you know, the zone of the whole place is yours, one of everything. Yes. Yeah.
I am sponsored now. Alright. I wish it was that easy. What does it actually take? I mean, if you wanted to be, pro, and actually do the thing, I I I don't know if that's an aspiration.
I'm like, no. Is that something you want to do? You gotta be really good. I am too beat up now. You how do you get injured bowling?
Well, just do it a lot. I do it once. I feel a little bit tired. Yeah. Yeah.
So I'm not conditioned for bowling. It's, yeah. I mean, it's, from hips to knees to ankles to shoulders to elbows to wrists to fingers. I mean, I've got multiple finger and wrists and elbow injuries. Thankfully, not the hips yet.
Yeah. But knees. You've done knees. Oh, yeah. You've done you've done a bunch of knees.
Two two knee surgeries Right. A couple years ago. All because of bowling. So yeah. And I can't.
That's all the further I can bend that finger now. So That's what being sponsored will do for you. Yeah. Do they help you with your bills at least? No.
They don't. They certainly don't. Storm. I know. Not.
Play a storm. Yeah. Oh, dario. Good night. Well, Justin, thank you.
I'm excited. You're welcome. We are gonna do some bowling tomorrow, evening, which is gonna be a lot of fun. I'm gonna I'm gonna bring Straight arm. Yeah.
Shoulders shoulders square. Wherever your shoulders go, the bowling ball goes. Is that right? Well, for the most part. I mean, unless your shoulders are going this way and your arms going that way, then I might have to work on my form.
I'm pretty I'm pretty okay at at rolling a straight ball. Yeah. I don't hit a lot of gutters. The easiest thing to do. Shoulder square is just like if you were tossing a bowling ball or tossing a softball to your friend across the street.
Uh-huh. That's it. Same kinda deal. Yep. Okay.
Alright. I like a good, a good lob. I like when, when it smacks down on the on the wood real hard from a high lob. No. I do not.
Come on. I'm gonna have to have a conversation with you. I like to leave a dent in the heart. Yeah. The employees don't like that either.
Why is bowling so expensive? Because of people like Josh. Yeah. No. You were asking a pretty interesting question, though.
When you when you do go bowling, typically, you you rent the lane for a certain amount of time, and then you also rent shoes. Uh-huh. But they don't charge you for the ball. Yeah. Yeah.
It's another thing. Let me just let me just say this. If if you bowl on a semi regular basis, I don't wanna sound too gross, but, it's always nice to have your own bowling ball because excited to bring my own ball. Yeah. You know whose fingers have been in it.
Yeah. There's that. And if bowling shoes cost me $500, I would spend $500 on bowling shoes well before a bowling ball. Interesting. Because of all the feet in them.
Yeah. I mean, they put pretty good disinfectant in that stuff, but, man, they are uncomfortable. What? They're made out of cardboard. They are uncomfortable.
They are uncomfortable. Awesome. Well, thanks, Justin. This will be a lot of fun. We're gonna be at Fat Cats, tomorrow doing that.
We'll tell you about it on Friday morning after, we've had a chance to I slaughter you on the bowling alley That's that's probably true. Lane. That's probably what's gonna happen. On the bowling alley lane. Yes.
Alright. Good night. We got Amazon gift cards for Christmas. You and I each got one. I can't figure out what to shop for.
I keep filling up my cart and taking stuff out. I have a lot of things. Here's the funniest part is I I have my own money besides this gift card to Amazon. Well yeah. And I will put things in, and then I'll be like, oh, that's a $150.
I better take something out. Like, I can pay you for that extra. Right. You you're like, I'll just only use gift card money. That's true.
I've I've I've I haven't thought about it like that. There is there is that. Right? I've been looking at so many different things. I can't figure out which hobby to support.
Yeah. That's my problem. I've supported 2 hobbies in my cart. Because, there's there's photography gear. There's truck stuff.
There's, fly fishing things. There's, just things that I like. Uh-huh. There's grilling. There's there's so many different things.
And so I go through my my sort of wish list or whatever. Uh-huh. And I'm and I'm looking through here at the things that I have on here, and I'm like, yeah. I could just buy some of the stuff on my list. Like, there's a book I want.
Did that book come out? It's still preorder. I so I could, you know, I could preorder this book I want. There's there's a few things, and I scroll through and I go, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. All that stuff's really cool. But then I can't decide because I'm like, do I wanna buy one thing, or do I wanna, like, spread across a couple different hobbies and maybe pick up a few smaller things? I can't decide. I just can't decide what to do.
Yeah. And then I don't wanna regret using it on something where I'm like, I wish I would've done this. So I don't buy anything. I'm sitting on it. I can't figure it out.
I yeah. I'm kinda sitting on mine too just because I go I've I've made a cart and emptied the cart about 6 different times. Really? I keep adding stuff and taking stuff away and readdying stuff. It's free money.
What do you do with free money? I can't figure out how to spend my free money. It's silly. Like, this book I want is is expensive, but it's also very limited and hard to find. And so maybe I wanna do that.
What book is it? That one I was telling you about. That's it's not in public in, in print anymore. I can't get it. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. There's one on there, and I might wanna get that book. It's a rare book. It's a rare find.
It's a, yeah, a fly fishing book. I know. And how much is it? Like, $40. I know.
That's why I go, do I wanna do that? And that's the sad part about it is you know the author personally, and he's not gonna receive any of the money if you spend that. The author personally, and he doesn't have a copy of this book, of his own book. I know that's crazy. It's a rare find.
I'm sorry. Well, get the book. You've been talking about my book for a long time. Very, very long time. But then if, you know, I don't know.
I I gotta think about what I wanna do. How you wanna spend your money still? I know. It's silly. I can't figure out what to spend my free money on.
Currently, there are 4 things in my cart. Okay. And it equals $65. Wow. You've got room to play.
I know. You're gonna put more in your cart? Oh, I'll I'll keep shopping. Don't you worry. I'm not worried.
I am not worried. But but good for you for figuring out what you wanna spend your your free money on. I I can't pick. That's why I haven't hit the button of checkout yet, though, because I go, I'm in the same boat. I can't make I can't pull the trigger.
I can't just be like, yeah. I'm gonna I'm totally sold on this idea. I know. I keep talking myself out of stuff. Me too.
And then I keep thinking, like, well, what if, like, a month from now, I'm like, oh, that's the thing I want, and I don't have it now because I to it. That's why I'm doing it. But then a month's gonna go by, and I'm gonna go, I should've just bought the thing. Or a month's gonna go by, and you're gonna lose the gift card. No.
It's it's stored away. I know where it is. You can enter it onto your I can. I just haven't done that yet. But then I'm afraid I'll make, like, a a the wrong purchase, and I won't I'll forget to change the payment information or something.
I'm like, this wasn't for my free money. This was for normal money. What a disaster. It shouldn't be this hard to spend a gift card. Hard.
Why is it this hard to spend a gift card? I don't know. Come on. Because it's free money. I guess.
I should just be spending it. I should just be like, yeah. It's free money. Cool. Here we go.
I just thought about something I was gonna add to my cart, and now I forgot what it was. Oh, bummer. You never said it out loud, so I am zero help. I know. But but good to know.
You thought of something and then forgot. It'll come to you. Keep thinking about it. Well, keep thinking. Alright.
Scroll through your thing again. I bet it was it was inspired by something you saw. Oh, I bet you're right. Yeah. I'll keep scrolling.
Yeah. I've shopped before. I'm pretty good at it. You're pretty good at shopping. Yeah.
Just not spending the money. That's the hard yeah. I I can shop. Just can't make the purchase. You're good at spending real money.
Oh, sure. Yeah. That's easy. But free money? I don't know why I can't spend it.
It's it's really hard. You know those as seen on TV things? Sure. I am a sucker for those. Are you?
Yeah. Because I you've you've been influenced and bought a few of those things over the, over the years. SPS. I think it's all junk. Okay.
Maybe this isn't gonna be junk to you. The Consumer Electronics Show I've heard of how? CES is a big deal. Yeah. What what's the new gadget?
They've got some cool ones, and they've got some that I'm like because I saw a new pizza oven that is real cool. Oh, I haven't that's not on on this list. It's a it's an indoor outdoor pizza oven, that can cook a pizza in 2 minutes. It gets to 850 degrees. Woah.
And, it has multiple different settings for, like, if you're doing a frozen pizza, if you're doing a thin crust, or a New York style, or just a standard pizza. And it'll actually tell you, like, if you wanna make multiples. When you, make your first one, you take it out, and it'll tell you when it's ready to have another one in. It's, like, real cool. That is cool.
It's got a glass window so you can see inside while it's cooking. Very cool. If frozen yogurt is called froyo, what's frozen pizza? Fro pie? Sure.
Cool meme. Thanks. Okay. Here's some of the here's some of the cool gadgets. Alright.
I'm all ears. What do we got? There's a robot vacuum that picks up dirty socks. I don't need that. It's like a Roomba, but it just picks up dirty socks.
It's Roborock. That's the company that made it. Probably about $1,000. So It can Go ahead. It picks up small items that weigh less than 11 ounces.
Okay. What were you gonna say? I was just gonna say, CES, the consumer, electronic show, starts today. It's today through 10th in Las Vegas. I didn't hear you say that.
Yeah. I was too busy thinking about that cool pizza. You were just too busy. Yeah. Go ahead.
Electric roller blades. You might be into this. Okay. You wear a battery around your waist like a belt, and then you control your speed with a remote. Just skate.
The top speed is 18 miles an hour. They are $800. That's too expensive. And just skate. You can propel them yourself.
But these are electric. I don't need that. I'm gonna save the one that I like for last. Okay. Let's see.
Where did they go? There's a table with working legs. It's called the MIMO. With working legs. Doesn't every table have working legs?
No. No. No. But this one walks around. Walking legs.
Yeah. It looks like a small side table with a lamp on top. Okay. It's like an AI robot that you can talk to, but it's also a functional table. Alright.
Then there is a stringless guitar. Interesting. Remember those, like, guitars that you could just push a button that was like a little? I mean, we bought Beck 1 when he was Oh, you're talking about the paper jams? Yeah.
Paper jams. Paper jams? And this is kinda like that. K. It's $500, and you just kinda push buttons, and it plays the guitar.
And so you can pretend that you're Is there anything at the at the Consumer Electronics Show that's under $500? Because I feel like everything's 500 more. The one thing that I want. Okay. Well, let's get to that in a second.
Do you see this suction mounted TV? No. So it's a it's a TV with 4 giant suction cups on the back, so you can stick it wherever you want without having to put up a wall mount. That's interesting. I'm I it makes me a little nervous unless those suction cups are real good.
Yeah. But that's that's a thing. That is called the Displace TV because you could put it in this place or you could put it in this place. Stop. They call it the Displace TV.
It's a battery powered 55 inch suction cup mountable TV that you can put in displays. Stop. They also have a a stretchable screen concept from Samsung that lets you stretch the TV to the size you want it to be. That's weird. That is weird.
Interesting. Right? Let's see. What does this do? You can charge your phone in this giant battery charging hub, $450, and then there is this case that you, you put on your phone that then also charges.
This is nuts. There's a new, robot lawnmower. Have you seen that guy? No. He's cool.
He's not the thing? No. Are you trying to guess which my favorite thing? I'm trying. Okay.
Let me see. This thing that I really, really want. It is a tiny robot that blows on your drink to cool it down. Come on. It's called the fufu.
No. It looks like a cat, and it hangs on the side of your mug or your bowl. It works on tea, coffee, any kind of hot drinks, or soup. Oh, come on. It's a little tiny fan robot that blows on your hot drinks or food to cool it down.
They go on sale in 2 cans. Need that. $25. I do need that. We do not need that.
I need that. That's ridiculous. I'm looking at it. It's silly. It's got a little mouth.
I know. I want it. Really? Yes. Yes.
I do. Oh, man. I want it so much. I want the leafy pod. And the leafy pod is a smart planter.
It's a smart, pot for your plant that tracks the moisture of your soil and your soil temperature and the humidity in the room and whether or not it's getting enough light. It's a smart pot for your plant. Where's the fun in that? Then I would be able to probably keep a plant alive I want the a lot better. I will never have to blow on my hot soup ever again.
Foo Foo will do it for me. I'm not into the Foo Foo. I love it. I am What a silly thing. I'm gonna buy that.
You're gonna buy the Foo Foo? Yep. Just you wait. It's it's currently being crowdfunded. Oh, man.
So it's not actually, a thing yet. Yeah. Crowdfunding will start this summer, which means that it doesn't exist. Like, they've got prototypes. And at CES, they're gonna try to talk people into investing in it to make it a thing.
So I would just hold your horses on it. Maybe I'll be an investor. Yeah. That's what crowdfunding is. Do you get Do I know.
You're not guaranteed to get the product. Oh. They could just never make it, and then you'd just doubt that money. So Crappy sandwich. Yeah.
But it's a cool little thing. I get where you're coming from. But, also, you can blow on your own drinking soup. Don't want to. Alright, man.
When a robot would do it for me. I would like to go to CES and wander around and see all that stuff. It would be really, really with you. Yeah. And then maybe you could buy one of the prototypes and talk them into it and say, look.
If I give you $25 right now to be an investor, I'll take one of those off your hands. And and I will try and sell this to everyone I know. As an investor Yeah. For $25. I'll be your investor and your sales manager.
Oh. Not the manager. That's too much responsibility. You just wanna talk people into having a little cat blow on their soup form. Exactly.
Okay. Well, good good find. We'll see if we can make that happen for you. Maybe I'll just Go to Japan and get it because it's still only available there I know. After they crowdfund it.
I know. They don't have global distribution. Dream pressure? I'm no. I'm just giving you reality is what it is.
A reality is a crusher of dreams. Listen to this story. This happened in Kansas. They had a storm. It was a an ice storm.
Ice storm. So ice fell from the sky? Well It it got wet, and then it froze. That's what that's what happened. K?
The high temperature was 16 degrees with a wind chill of negative 5, and it was pretty pretty freezing. There were some linemen who went out to just do their job, and they were like, I'm sure they weren't just out there going. They're out there working because power is a very big part of life. Had some power that they were trying to restore. It sounds right.
Because ice storms, all the ice on the power lines is heavy, and it probably pulled some stuff down. Okay. Sure. They had a surprise of their life when they saw a bobcat and her kitten frozen to one of the poles. No way.
They were frozen stuck on the power pole. They would have tried climbing it and got frozen there? Yes. I'm assuming? Yes.
I have a photograph of this. And they are mid climb? Yeah. Like, the mom bobcat, you can see her. Her paws are on the power line, and she's like on the power line?
She's not the power. They made it all the way up? She's cut well, she's kinda both. Like, she's got some feet on the pole and then So was that the cause of the outage? No.
I'm unsure. Okay. I'm unsure about that. Did they get them off and thaw them out and they were okay? I'm gonna tell you.
Holy moly. Alright. I have questions? The guy, the lineman said he couldn't knock them out. The mom was frozen to the top of the pole, so he had to make a snare out of a piece of pipe and some rope to hold her down while he beat the ice loose and then lowered her to the ground.
And then he had to do the same with the kitten. The entire rescue took about 2 hours. He said it took longer to avert the power so that it didn't fry, like, so he didn't fry the bobcats and then have everybody lose electricity. Alright. I found the pictures, because I wanted to see as well.
So I just looked up Kansas frozen Bobcats power line. Yeah. I think that they they weren't frozen. They were they were there. I don't think they were, like I think they were stuck, but I don't think they were frozen in place.
Not that I can tell. I think it was very cold, though. This says they were frozen. I think frozen in place. I don't think they were it does say they were frozen stuck.
I don't Yeah. Yeah. That's a wild thing to me. I I don't understand. They they Have you ever seen a Christmas story?
Yeah. They didn't lick the they didn't lick the metal. To something cold, it freezes. It was very cold. I know.
And the and the to be fair, the power line is, is metal. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's it's quite the thing, though. So they rescued the mom first.
She ran off. The kitten was rescued right afterwards and ran in the same direction as the mom. So That's good news. The lineman did a great job that day. He rescued 2 bobcats and restored power to everyone.
Look at him go. Look at that guy. Way to go. Dominic is the lineman's name. Way to go, Dominic.

There were actually frozen high school mascot? Mascot. Yeah. BT dubs. Cool.
I don't know. Would you rather this or that? Would you rather be able to instantly learn any skill by watching someone do it once I feel like I do that. But you're never I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
But you're never able to teach it to anyone else Well, that's their problem. Or have unlimited knowledge about any subject, but forget everything you know every time it's your birthday. No. Lame. I'd rather learn any new skill by watching someone do it once.
Of course. And if I can't teach other people, I'm sorry. I yeah. You can say I would love to be able to pass on skills. They'd be like, how do you do that?
I'd be like, I can't tell you. I'm sorry. I just can't the video I watched that got me here. I can do that. Or you can say, watch me do it.
I'm not gonna teach you. Just watch me do it. I don't I guess. I guess too. I'm gonna pick that one.
Picking that one as well, but think of all the skills I could have. So many skills? I know. Think of all the skills I could have. I could have so many skills.
And you can instantly learn them just by watching somebody. Yeah. That's my favorite part. Look at all those skills. I don't have to practice.
I just watch, and then I'm like, oh. I can do that. Look at my cool skills. Mhmm. Look at all the languages I've just learned.
Look at all the instruments that I can play. Look at all the dance moves I know. Look at all the songs I can sing. Oh, man. I'd be so cool.
So much skill. I know. You need a tool bag for all those skills. Got one. Do you?
Cool. Yes. You threw it over your shoulder. Is that what that was? Like a duffle?
Yeah. Yeah. Nice. Yeah. Yeah.
Like an old yeah. Like a duffle duffle. Yeah. Yeah. Yep.
Alright. I was gonna say, like, an old laundry bag, but you don't always throw those over your shoulder. Do you? You might. I don't know what you do.
I don't I don't know. What's a what's a laundry bag? I don't know. I don't know. I gotta look that up.
What's an old laundry bag? Let's see what you're seeing. I don't know. Old laundry bag. Oh, okay.
It's got a drawstring on it. Yeah. That's what I was thinking of. I see. When's the last time you used one of those?
Never. There it is. Would you rather this or that? Do you have anything to add at the end of the show that you didn't get a chance to say or get off your chest during the the entirety of the show up to this point? I think that I'm good.
You feel you feel confident in the things you have expressed today? I would say that I feel confident in the things that I've expressed, but I have expressed a lot. And I think it's probably time to say, I do. Do you think so? I see.
Alright. Is there something that you think that I should say more of or that I should? I just wanted to make sure you got it all out there. That's really the big deal. I think I did.
Okay. Before we go, I had one more thing I wanted to share. Share. You know about hot girl summer? Yes.
During the summer months where you feel like hot girl? Yeah. I don't feel that, but I know that other people do. Alright. That's fine.
That's fine. Well, I I wanted to invite you to join me on Rot Girl Winter. Oh. Yeah. I'm intrigued.
Tell me more. You might be. This is all about canceling weekend plans, choosing a TV show you've always wanted to see, and committing to binging it from start to finish before Monday morning, taking multiple naps in a single day, ordering meals in instead of cooking, wearing pajamas all day. I'm sold. I knew you would be.
I'm in it. Look. As they said here in this in this, post about Rot Girl Winter Mhmm. We invented indoors so that we didn't have to go outdoors in the cold. Let's celebrate that.
Let's celebrate the indoors Yeah. When we don't wanna go outdoors. I felt like you needed to hear that because it's a trend that you're doing. You just didn't know it had a name. I I am doing that trend, but that trend has also been not so healthy for me.
So I'm trying to go that because there are cookies on the inside? Is that why? There's a lot of snacks on the inside. Yeah. So I'm trying to go snacks live.
Outside to get more health for my heart. Oh. You see? I do see. I see what you're doing.
But I think there's something to be found in taking a weekend Yeah. And having that. I think that's good for your mind to just not do. I feel like by the time we get to the weekend this week, everybody's gonna be like, finally. Yeah.
After the week. Yeah. After the big full week. Because it's only Tuesday. I know.
But the show has come to a close. We've reached the end of it. I've I've said my things. I've said my things. Your things.
Words were said. We've said a lot of things. And now, we bid you adieu, as I believe you said. And then you have to Oh, you tip the hat. Tip the hat.
When you tip the hat, you do a swirl. What's the swirl part? I don't know. You do, like, a curly q spin when you you don't just this. See, I have a hat brim.
Yeah. You don't just tip the hat. No. I'm not tipping the hat. See, I'm taking the hat off Uh-huh.
And then I'm Smacking yourself in the face with it. Flipping the hat into your face. Flipping it, and then adieu. Smack your face. It would smack you in the face if you did your little flip.
No. I'd be so good at it. Oh, would you? Okay. Well, it's very, flourished.
