Welcome back to All Tricks. It's a new year and same us. Well, we have a couple of reasons why we haven't uploaded, and I feel like it's an excuse every time.
Speaker 3I feel, yeah, we've said this a lot, but this time actually has been the worst, the worst it's ever been.
Speaker 1Yeah, the worst Christmas and New Year's. Actually, christmas is okay, but we've been a little under the weather.
Speaker 3A little. The weather has owned us.
Speaker 1As you could tell, my nose is, it seems, a little nasally wearing these headphones, does it?
Speaker 3Yeah, oh yeah, I might have a few cough attacks while we're doing this. So it's yeah. I think we've been sick since.
Speaker 1I made a December.
Speaker 3Yeah, like beginning of December and it's just. I think I'm on my fifth, fourth or fifth sickness now in two months. Yeah, so it's been a lot. It's yeah. You know, we haven't really done much Christmas. We didn't really do much. We passed the flu back around to each other on Christmas. New Year's Eve we just stayed home.
Speaker 1Yeah, we couldn't even go out the countdown, I just, uh, I played a video of the New York countdown from like wait, it wasn't even live.
Speaker 3No, it was oh my God, you tricked us Well.
Speaker 1I did it like at the perfect time, like I timed it. So it says happy new year on the right time.
Speaker 3You know they have a live one right.
Speaker 1I know, but we only have Wi-Fi and I don't know how to get regular TV. I don't know how to do that, but I put on like a shitty fucking YouTube video from New York and the kids came out their rooms, we did the countdown and then everyone dispersed back into the room.
Speaker 3So I was like no, we were all on the couch. We've been like living on the couch.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's been, uh, it's been rough, it's been very rough. Yeah, we do feel bad because they had two weeks off.
Speaker 3Yeah, we were so guilty.
Speaker 1And we didn't do anything, Not one. We got some sun in the front yard and backyard a couple of times.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 1But uh, I try to convince myself that it's okay, because we're doing like a big road trip in June, which is kind of far, but we're doing a two week road trip, so I'm like oh, you know I know I do.
Speaker 3I do have a lot of mom guilt, but I my my way is like oh um, spring breaks coming up, we'll get a chance there.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'll do something.
Speaker 3So, yeah, I I have had a lot of like mom guilt and feeling very bad because we had a lot of plans like, yes, we get two weeks off, we're going to do this, we're going to do that, yeah. And then it just literally the day they got off, we all got like one person got sick and passed it, and another person so it's just been like passing back and forth. Yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah, which I'm sure parents know all too well.
Speaker 3Yeah, even our dog.
Speaker 1Yeah, our dog got sick.
Speaker 3I was giving antibiotics. I've there was a point in time, I was giving antibiotics. I was giving antibiotics to two kids and the dog. So, yeah, it's been a lot, it's been stressful, but we're back.
Speaker 1So be ready.
Speaker 3Yeah, every week.
Speaker 1Woohoo Every week. Question mark.
Speaker 3Charge. Charge those AirPods, because you're going to be here in a lot of us.
Speaker 1Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3Um, I do have something, though, that, um Bubby said. I know we want to do some things like, uh, the funny things our kids say. I do have something that Bubby said that was pretty funny. Um, so we were talking about how Christmas is Jesus's birthday and um, just you know, like explaining what Christmas really is, and, um, and she said, how does Jesus get a birthday cake on his birthday? That is funny. I thought it was so cute.
Speaker 1Where does birthday cakes come from?
Speaker 3Let me see, it's probably like a little like well, it's just probably like a pagan ritual or something.
Speaker 1No more birthday cakes for us.
Speaker 2What it is.
Speaker 3Wow, it all says. The first actual birthday cake was for children's birthdays. In Germany in the early 1400s they were specifically marketed for birthday parties of young children and they were called kinder fest.
Speaker 1Whoa.
Speaker 3Yeah, and the cakes were called get birds off.
Speaker 2Scorton sounds delicious yeah.
Speaker 3Oh, each year the child would receive a cake and one candle for every year of their life and extra one assemblies the upcoming year. But there weren't any gifts, just good wishes. How do you think our kids would react if they were like where were our guests? Who said nope, you're just getting good wishes.
Speaker 1That's smart Actually.
Speaker 3Happy birthday. I got a good wish for you. We got you a triple cake.
Speaker 1This year no gifts, though, anyway.
Speaker 3Okay, so let's can we cheers to um good wishes for this new year.
Speaker 1Yeah, I was just telling Brianna before this um, me and my buddy, we bought this like brewing system and we're going to start making our own beer. And I said, uh, we might have to retire, uh, the Bud Ice to drink our own. If it's good, imagine it's fucking terrible.
Speaker 3We taste tested on here. We just like spew it out everywhere we should do that.
Speaker 1We should taste, test the first one. That would be so tight we could do that I will see Cheers, cheers To being back better than ever Not.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, maybe Nice.
Speaker 1You can't beat a cold Bud Ice though.
Speaker 3Mm. Hmm, actually, inflation, they've gone up a dollar.
Speaker 1That's wild. Two for six. What do you remember it as the lowest price?
Speaker 3I think I remember two for four.
Speaker 1Two for four, two for four, 50. I remember and now it's a dollar 50 raised.
Speaker 3I always and, I think, two. It's been two for five, forever, though.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3Okay, so our topic for today is new year, new me.
Speaker 1I used to get so annoyed when people were like this is my year. But then I remembered like I used to say that when I was young I'd be like this is my year, I'm going to fucking, I'm going to do it, I'm going to be a millionaire, I'm going to get rich quick. And never happened.
Speaker 3Well, yeah, maybe you work towards it. Yeah, okay. So we asked for our polls how do you feel about the upcoming new year? 36% said I'm ready for a fresh start. 18% said new year Same me. 18% said I'm still recovering from Christmas. 27% said what day is it?
Speaker 1Came by so quick.
Speaker 3Yeah. And then we asked what your biggest New Year's resolution was. 9% said finding love. I hope you find that this year. 0% said getting a better job. I thought that would have had something Holy shit, yeah I thought someone would have been like a moving on. Everyone's so content, nice, I'm sure 27% said moving into a bigger place and 64% said healthier lifestyle.
Speaker 1There it is. I might have been part of that.
Speaker 3Yeah, I think I was part of that too, and then we asked you guys to send us your 2024 resolutions and tips to make them happen. Okay, so a few people answered actually, so we have to see my feet again. I'm going to drink more vodka and less beer.
Speaker 1That's a very good one.
Speaker 3I like how they have a resolution and then a plan of action.
Speaker 1A solution.
Speaker 3Uh-huh, I like it Good. Drink more water. So I bought myself a Stanley. Ha ha ha, I'm a Stanley girl now, what is up with that? Okay, so I also have like questions about the Stanley culture, but also this person has a resolution and a call to action for it, which is I like that too.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 3But yeah, Stanley cups, I don't get it.
Speaker 1It's like the target brand or the fucking.
Speaker 3No, you know what I heard Some like person that I follow. They said that someone that worked for them said that I guess Stanley's been around for a long time but they weren't doing well, so they just read. They didn't even like fix anything, Just rebranded and sent it out to influencers.
Speaker 1That's. That's the name of the game.
Speaker 3And then it blew up.
Speaker 1That's the name of the game, right there.
Speaker 3Uh-huh, I'm crazy seeing those videos of like fifth graders and like little middle schoolers like wanting it for Christmas.
Speaker 1I told you this already. But there was this dude who bought his girlfriend a Yeti, a regular drinking cup, and like a big mug, and she's like what's this? He's like it's a Yeti. And she's like I wanted a Stanley. He's like well, you're different. I was like now that Yeti's dope, I'd prefer a Yeti Stanley.
Speaker 3I'd rather be a Yeti girl than a Stanley girl.
Speaker 1For sure, I put those on there.
Speaker 3Yeah, that is funny. Have you seen the videos of people like running through Target to get the Stanley cups?
Speaker 1Not interested.
Speaker 3I guess there was like a Valentine's Day release like Pink and Red and there's like a heart on it and I actually saw a video of someone. They laminated, you know how it has like a label around it but you just throw it away. They laminated the label to put back on the cup because it was like Valentine's theme. They thought was cute.
Speaker 1So I would see Stanley a lot, maybe like I don't know a year ago at Target, and I'd always like look at the cups and I'd be like this is dumb, I would never buy a Stanley cup for sure I would never.
Speaker 3What? What made you not want?
Speaker 1it. It's so cheesy, it's like a, it's like the Walmart camping brand, not, not that I'm like bougie or anything, but I don't know. I don't think I don't really like cheap things, you know, and when I would see that I'd be like. Stanley, I would never get that.
Speaker 3Oh, he gave a hand flip too. All right if.
Speaker 1I would get it. I'd put a sticker in front of it and be like so whoever has this. That's like people who wore champion again. Remember how champion got so big like all you guys who wore champion.
Speaker 3Fuck you guys, you guys remember when it was in Walmart. That's a shitty brand.
Speaker 1That's not even a good brand. You guys are fucking dumb. It's all these younger kids, I think, who are bringing back like shitty. Maybe I should go back to wearing Walmart shoes those used to be my favorite shoes, oh no, the righty shoes.
Speaker 3righty had the best shoes.
Speaker 1Mine were Walmart, but righty were like the similar style, the similar look. Maybe I should bring those back all these dumb fucking kids.
Speaker 3Okay, next one meditate in the morning so I set my alarm to some Native American flute music to help.
Speaker 1That's pretty cool that is cool yeah it's hard to do.
Speaker 3Play more Call of Duty with Garza. I will harass him until he neglects his family in place with us.
Speaker 1I know who that is.
Speaker 3You don't even have to see who that is.
Speaker 1No, I play with two people, and I know who that is.
Speaker 3You play with three.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, I play with champ too. Yeah, he's the best.
Speaker 3Wow, so this person's uh New Year's resolution is to have you neglect your family, damn. Wow, I see where you're coming from, okay, okay.
Speaker 1He sees that man need.
Speaker 3Okay, so next one is don't make them, because I never stick to them. Hey, they're being straight up At least you can acknowledge, but don't be defeated.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 3Okay, last one been trying to lose weight since 2014. Time to start again, lol.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's me too. I was gonna say New Year's resolutions are for losers, rude, wait, why can't you start fucking March 12th or like when the next day is what's the day? January something? Today's January 15th? Why can't you start, like already? I saw this funny meme where it's like six days in and I'm still pushing off my resolutions and I was like that was me I think I reposted it, but I was like dude, that's me.
Speaker 3But yeah, I thought that was funny, you're not losers, you're just.
Speaker 1It's fucking hilarious.
Speaker 3My favorite ones that are like three days. In 2025 will be my year Are you ready to give it up?
Speaker 1Yeah, oh man, that's that's. I'm part of that group. Oh man, we could do it guys.
Improving Health and Wellness Struggles
Speaker 3Do you have any resolutions? I do, I was gonna ask you. So a few of my resolutions are to be healthier. We have gym passes and we actually started going, but then, well, actually I started going, I went to a couple times, you went one time.
Speaker 1No, I went like two or three times.
Speaker 3You went. We'll say twice oh my.
Speaker 1Once I was on the treadmill. The next time I was in the movie room watching Maze Runner Sitting down.
Speaker 3You were trying. You were trying to say where can I order the chicken strips from here? Where's the menu?
Speaker 2Do they? Bring it to me, or do I have to go?
Speaker 1back to the county again.
Speaker 3Does the smoothie bar sell?
Speaker 1nachos. So funny thing we belong to choose fitness. And I went in and I said I'm paying for the whole year for both of us and let's get to it. And Breanna, she did go, more than me, but I went a couple times and haven't been back. But I'll be back.
Speaker 3We're already starting a little plan.
Speaker 1Yeah, today I've eaten clean. I'm meal prepped for like four days and I'm already mad about it, but whatever.
Speaker 3I'm proud of you.
Speaker 1I appreciate that.
Speaker 3So to be healthier, I want to read more, I think you read a lot already, but I love reading, but I have read that there's things that say like you should read. I don't know if they mean it means like a help, self help book or like a helpful book, but like read 10 pages a day. Yeah so I do want I mean, I've read just murder books.
Speaker 1Murder mystery.
Speaker 3Yeah, so I don't know if that helps, but read more, and I do want to start sewing more and learning more about sewing.
Speaker 1Nice.
Speaker 3Oh, and I do. I want to pray more.
Speaker 1Oh, nice yeah.
Speaker 3Those are my resolutions. What about you?
Speaker 1Just to add, you do need to work on sewing, because I need you to sew labels on some shirts and hats.
Speaker 3Oh no, I'm a sweatshop.
Speaker 2Now I'll pay you 50 cents a hat.
Speaker 3Yes, sure, next time you guys see me I'm going to have band-aids all over my fingers. Your newly manicured fingers are going to be all chipped, I know.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, I have one and a half. It's just to be healthy, and I said a few times that God's given me everything I ever wanted, like a good job, you, my kids, my house, everything. I have everything I ever wanted in this life and I don't really have to worry about much, and 99% of people can't say that. But I need to focus on my health because I'm not feeling like it and I could feel better and I want to show people you could get everything you ever like. I have everything I need and I want, except my health, and that's what I want to focus on now, which is why I'm mill prepping and it's the worst. You got it, yeah, anyway, okay, let's say pretty much. Oh, the second the half is I want to try a couple of cold plunges this year, like early in the morning you just dunk yourself into our pool.
Speaker 1Yeah, so our pool is fucking freezing and sometimes, like I've been going to work a couple times, like the last few weeks, a couple times a week, two, three times a week.
Speaker 2I don't have an office to go to, necessarily, so. I don't make it too much, but uh.
Speaker 1I don't have an office. That's why I only leave a couple times a week. But when I walk outside, it's so cold. I look at the pool and I'm like, oh fuck, I'm a bitch and I just leave like I can't do it, but uh, I want to do try that, because I heard it's like really good for you Actually just thought of one too.
Speaker 3Another one, and we already kind of worked on it, is getting outside with the kids more. And you know, like we said, we've just been trying to get them out into the sun, but there was a day where we um all were outside and Bubby and I put our skates on and we were learning how to skate. I know I'm like beginning at skating and that's why you're laughing at me, but, um, yeah, just getting outside with them more, yeah, for sure. Okay, so did you know there is an actual name for resolutions that fail?
Speaker 1I don't know.
Speaker 3So it's called the false hope syndrome. So if you find yourself behaving in the same manner at this time of year as you did the year before and the year before that and the year before that, and you just keep finding yourself failing over and over, it's called false hopes syndrome.
Speaker 1That's pretty dark. That's sad.
Speaker 3Well, I mean failing over and over. It sucks.
Speaker 1They say like failing is good, but I've been failing since fucking 2008 trying to lose weight and it doesn't feel so good.
Speaker 3I think I've been failing since 1998.
Speaker 1Maybe we need to change something. I don't know what it is, but okay.
Speaker 3So we have a few things on why resolutions fail. So sometimes we think too big. Um, people tend to set resolutions for things that are, um, might not be that achievable, and they could set them up in like increments to attain them, but sometimes we just think too big so smaller goals maybe.
Speaker 3Yes, yeah, sometimes we don't consider the why behind them. So sometimes if we hate doing something and we set it as a goal, we just don't do it, like say you don't like going to the gym, but your goal is to go to the gym. Uh-huh, if it's a pain to you, you're just not going to do it.
Speaker 1I think that might be everything, though.
Speaker 3Maybe yeah. The last one is we're not ready for change. So we can't just talk about wanting change. We have to really think about and be psychologically ready as well.
Speaker 1Everybody is comfortable when they're at not everybody, most people that's why in that poll, when no one put a job, yeah, no, job, dude, everyone, not everyone, but a lot of people I follow bitch about their job or like not having time to do like other stuff because they're working all the time. Bitch, you don't want that fucking same job? Heck, no, everyone's comfortable, which is like a super scary place to be so.
Speaker 3Yes, it's. It's hard to move because you know sometimes you've got like your routine in place, especially if you have, you know, like Kids or you know other extracurricular things, that it it. They all like kind of go together.
Speaker 2You got your plan.
Speaker 3You know, even like the commute home or to work, sometimes, if it's like a good amount of time, you're like, oh man, that's, it's worth it in that sense, yeah, sorry, okay. So we have some tips for keeping New Year's resolutions.
Speaker 1It's tip one Don't be a bitch.
Speaker 3That's what it comes down to like.
Speaker 1Your mind is gonna tell you like don't get up early, don't go run, don't fucking read this book, don't like Cuz. How attractive is for me Just watching TV, the sopranos and eating fucking Oreos. Like I'd rather do that than walk around the block. You know, like, but you got to convince yourself like don't be that person.
Speaker 3I know, yeah, it's ah, I don't know.
Speaker 1The mind is weak, you know, and you know the body's weak. You got to dig deep to Like convince yourself. Man, I just got to do this and it's fucking super hard. I'm one day in and fucking you're done.
Speaker 3No prepping and Bring on the Oreos now.
Speaker 1I told us today we were walking in Tarry. We got some groceries and some other things and I walked past like a food aisle and I saw all the Oreos and I was walking and I just put my head down, it was just an aisle of Oreos I was. I was like a Dreaming of a sad music and I was like in a little movie scene like I know, I have seen those moms that you know.
Speaker 3I, of course I follow a few of those influencer moms where they get up at five in the morning they go do, like, their hot yoga, they're Pilates class to go to the gym and they like get it done and then they come back and, you know, start their day and I'm like, man, I want, I want to get up at five in the morning and five in the morning comes and I'm like nope. No way I don't want to get up at five in the morning.
Speaker 1That's why they have a million devolvers and we're just. I don't.
Speaker 3That's why they have their dreambods. We don't.
Speaker 1Either I will wake up or Brianna will wake up, and the site on either of us is like our mouths are open, our hair is fucking crazy.
Speaker 3Great, my hair is greased to my forehead.
Speaker 1We have one kid's fucking foot in our face.
Speaker 2Yeah, three chins.
Speaker 1That bed is a bed's nice at 5 am.
Speaker 2You know what's?
Speaker 1crazy is 5 am Is the time that I'd like to get up and I haven't really told you but the last few months. I'm like man. This week I need to get up at 5 am because I'd like to be home at like 730 to walk the kids to school.
Speaker 1But that's the time I've been wanting to the last three months to get up, but I haven't done it, I was yeah, I was going really hard on hiking for a minute but I'm like what time should I go so I could be back? And it's like five, I need to be up by five and out the door at I don't know 515 to be home in the next like two hours, and I Haven't done it once.
Speaker 3I've been having those same thoughts really. I. I had those thoughts of I need to talk to him about. Okay, if I wake up at five I'll go work out. Everyone still asleep, I'll come back, then I can get the kids ready, holy shit, I've been having those same thoughts. I'm talking about that.
Speaker 1That's.
Speaker 3maybe we should switch days, oh yeah, yeah, you have lip stuff on your septum, yeah, oh see already making a plan. You start first.
Speaker 1Hey, I was doing that a little bit. Yeah, you were, no you would get up at 530 and go hiking, and I was hiking like every day. I took like one day a week off. I think I went too hard. Maybe I'll go to five days.
Speaker 3I told you yeah, don't get burnt out, but anyway, that should be a tip Don't get burnt out burnt out.
Speaker 1Yeah, right now on working out. People are like I'm gonna go hard. I've done that. Probably I don't fucking ten years straight, but yeah, burn out is real.
Speaker 3Okay, so some tips are for keeping those New Year's resolutions. First, one, one and done. A Lot of the times we pick too many goals and we spread ourselves too thin. So pick one, maybe two. Uh-huh and focus on that. So it sets you up to achieve specific goals, instead of feeling like a failure for hitting none of them.
Speaker 1Sure, that's a good one. Yeah, yeah, don't want yourself too thin.
Speaker 3Mm-hmm. Next one is plan it out. Think through how you want to accomplish your resolutions and how long it might take to reach your goal. Do some research so you know, for Losing weight or for if you want to like, quit smoking. Do some research on, you know maybe, increments of what you could do. Yeah planning will help you Make sure you can see it through to the end.
Speaker 1Yeah, I think planning a little bit, but I think it really just takes Doing it, jumping in like with both feet, not too hard, but maybe like look it up a little bit and what Tips and tricks you could do. But you just got to do it. You can't be a hundred percent ready for everything.
Speaker 3There's gonna be little failures along the way, so yeah, but also you could like, you know, like meal planning yeah, that's prepping for it, sure. Or also looking up work like workouts to burn fat. Next one is be specific, so be detailed in your resolution instead of just working out like be healthy.
Speaker 1Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3It could be exercise 30 minutes daily or take a 20 minute walk every day.
Speaker 1Yeah, even like Set a goal for losing a pound a week, or two pounds a week, or something.
Speaker 3I've seen even people say like oh, I want to close all the rings on my Apple watch.
Speaker 1Oh, like the fucking yeah, yeah, yeah, that's good, yeah.
Speaker 3Next one is don't take on too much, so start small. Avoid setting an overly high expectation for yourself. So if you'd like to use lose weight, like you said, set a realistic goal. Maybe one pound a week, yeah. Once you reach that goal, think about another, another like plan like sure life to eight pounds, something else. So setting small goals can help you achieve your big results. Next one is choose a new resolution, so avoid picking the same.
Speaker 1Goal that you've been picking here.
Speaker 3So 2014 guy.
Speaker 1That's why I haven't lost weight, because I've been choosing the same goal since 20 fucking 12. That's there you go. Damn, no one told me.
Speaker 3We come back next week and you're all skinny.
Speaker 1Down a hundred pounds. That's my goal, to lose a hundred pounds. But I mean that's cool. Yeah, sure, yeah, that's nice.
Speaker 3Um, because you know, if you keep not I don't want to say failing, but if you keep, you know, not making the same goal over and over, you're kind of used to it. You're kind of used to being like oh, that's okay.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'll do it next time, yeah maybe you should put another goal first, keep that one, maybe second or third, and then Focus on the first one and then slowly incorporate the being healthier and baby steps.
Speaker 3Yeah, always baby steps. Next one is identify Someone that can hold you accountable and support you Hell.
Speaker 1Yeah like you know, like a friend, a partner that's funny because my cousin told me I've only hung out with him a couple times. Like two weeks ago I was out on bitching about losing weight or something, and then, uh, he's like I'm gonna fucking hold you accountable, yeah, I'm gonna be mean to you till you do. And I'm like do, do it. That sounds great to me. And If I would post food or I would do something not even anything he'd still message me Like what did you do today? Did you do?
Speaker 1And he messaged me today and, because he saw the meal prep, he's like fuck, yeah, that's what I'm talking about. And I was like dude, I walked by the Oreo aisle, I told him the target story and I was like I want Oreos. And he's like Jesus Christ, stop being a bitch like. I'm like nah, I'm not gonna eat him. He's like good. Don't he like super healthy and he's a skinny like a little bit of abs, like he's a little bit of abs.

Speaker 3I also heard when you went to go visit your friend to help champ. I also heard him asking you about like oh, you want to go like hike again and stuff.
Speaker 1Yeah, my buddy Uzi, aka Uzi, I just want to shout out my real quick. He's a doctor and he saw my son because I don't know stupid shit with my insurance and he's the best doctor. Look him up. But yeah, he always tells me he went hiking with me one time actually, and I would like make fun of him because this fucker showed up with jeans and like these fucking weird spary looking type of shoes.
Speaker 1And he was fine, yeah, and I had my like basketball shorts, camel pack. Yeah, I did, I had my water backpack and it wasn't even that long of a hike it was. The first one was in Claremont, the Claremont loop. Oh yeah, and that's when I first started, like my second week maybe, and we did like two miles and I was dying. I was like sitting down, breathing, heavy sweating, and this guy was just like, yeah, so this and that I said, bro, I'm like I have to make fun of you to make myself feel better.
Speaker 1So I posted his shoes and I was like, look at this guy freaking like, walking in circles around me while we're hiking. And then the second time was like I don't know, a 30 minute hike and I was dying. And he was good, this guy's a doctor and he's like in shape. But a shout out to Uzi, he keeps me accountable too. I just saw him, like she said, I took my son to see him yesterday and he's like, oh, like, what's up with hiking? And I'm like that's good.
Speaker 3That's what you need.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'm like I haven't done it, but I'm ill prepping. He's like dude, I saw it. He's like I liked it. Did you see that I liked it?
Speaker 3I was like, oh yeah, you did like, see, it's those little little parts of support, like someone even just liking that for you Like it makes you feel like yeah, I got this?
Speaker 1Yeah for sure he's the man.
Speaker 3Yeah, thank you Last one. Give your resolution time to become a habit. So new routines don't just become a habit overnight. A 2009 study found that, on average, it takes about 66 days to form a new habit. Holy shit.
Speaker 1I can't imagine working on 66 days.
Speaker 3Well, I mean not like consecutively. I know, but but yeah, no, it takes, like you know, 66 days to like Jesus. You know, wake up form that habit, do what you need to do Like Damn Think about it every day. Yeah, fuck me. I know, I thought it was 30 days, but I guess it's.
Speaker 1I wish I was at like 21 when I started stopping Nine days off Nine days off of something you just made up.
Speaker 2I know I thought it was 30 days. That's crazy, yeah.
Speaker 3So just be patient for yourself, like if you have a setback or two, like that's fine. You know, like you said, we all have a little bit of failures or setbacks. So just you know, bear with yourself, give yourself some time.
Speaker 1Don't beat yourself up too much.
Speaker 3Yes.
Speaker 1But a little bit, because if you don't, then you'll quit, like every other since 2012.
Speaker 3But anyway, OK, so that's it. So you know, keep yourself accountable. If you need someone to help you be accountable, that's the dress.
Speaker 1Will be there with you, I'll be mean to you, because I'm getting picked on by multiple people.
Speaker 3So he knows what to say.
Speaker 1I'll love, though you know yeah, tough love. Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 3OK, so next is our Ask man.
Speaker 1I almost did the hot guys. Oh, did you? I saw you look at me. I was like what's her lips going to do?
Speaker 3OK, so it's, how attractive do you think you are?
Speaker 1People answer that. Oh shit I have seen like Tik Tokers and Instagrammers like interview girls like what do you think You're?
Speaker 3like I'm a 10.
Speaker 1And the guy's like you're a six at best and they get all pissed. I'm like dude, that's my dog right there, oh God please Let him have it done to himself.
Speaker 3He did.
Speaker 1They're like well, you're like a four or five. He's like OK, I know I'm short and I don't know. That's fine, OK, I'm not going to get mad about it, Please.
Speaker 3I have seen that though, where the guy's like what do you think you are, and the girl rakes herself, and then he goes to someone else and has them rate her, and then they're like well, what do you think you are?
Speaker 2And?
Speaker 1yeah, that was better, I think.
Speaker 3I think it's cool to see what people like truly think of themselves.
Speaker 1Sure yeah, some people are fucking delusional.
Speaker 3And then some. Yeah well, some people also like don't give themselves enough credit.
Speaker 1I think you're a 10. Oh, that's because you're my husband. I'm probably a 3.9.
Speaker 3I think I'm a 4.5.
Speaker 1Wow.
Speaker 3I think you're a 99.9.
Speaker 1Damn, not 100. That's mean Damn. All right you give me a 10.
Speaker 2That's 100. You give me a 10. That's 100. 10 out of 10.
Speaker 1Don't try to flip it. Close your mouth.
Speaker 3You're so annoying.
Speaker 2Give me a 10. 10 out of 10.
Speaker 3Close your mouth. I give you a 99.9 out of 10. You dummy.
Speaker 1Not 10.
Speaker 3I'm just kidding, You're so annoying. Ok, so our question was how attractive do you think you are? First one my mom says I'm handsome. Next one I've been told I'm the hottest math major at my school, so probably a solid 4 out of 10. At least she has a sense of humor about it. Next one I have movie star good looks. Sloth from Goonies was a movie star. Let's see. I oddly feel like an 8, although no one has ever said attractive in my name in one sentence.
Speaker 1Damn, these are fucking depressing Slash money.
Speaker 3I always get taller and more handsome every time I visit my grandma.
Speaker 1I love that one.
Speaker 3Last one is if I saw my twin in prison, I'd totally get up in that ass. No homo.
Speaker 2Oh shit.
Speaker 3Yeah, so that's that, and next is our hot girls, oh no again I said ass goss. Ass gossling.
Speaker 1That's what I thought.
Speaker 3I said, ryan gossling oh, that should be a.
Speaker 2Speaking of Ryan gossling did you see that here? What?
Speaker 3What? Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2Did you see, did you see?
Speaker 1he won, I don't know. He won an Emmy, I think it is for the Barbie song, the Ken song, and when he won, though, he went up against Billy Eilish like legit ass musicians Wait, wait, wait. And when he won, he was like this Did he, of course he did the camera was on his face and he and now it's like a big news story like Ryan gossling like confused on why he won the Ken song.
Speaker 3It's so fucking funny. He was not confused. I did see that.
Speaker 1Did you see his speech?
Speaker 3No, what was it You're?
Speaker 1going to be mad. Because, he said I couldn't do this without one, without one person my lady at home watching our kids while I'm on set filming. Like he thanked Eva Lunghor, Eva Mendez.
Speaker 3Shouts out to Eva Lunghor.
Speaker 2You heard it here first.
Speaker 3He married Eva Lunghor here, guys, the drama.
Speaker 2He sang both Eva, eva's Eva times two.
Speaker 1He thanked her for watching the kids and stuff at home while he was.
Speaker 3Don't you hate her. I'm sorry, that's all I got to say. Holy shit.
Speaker 1Of course he did.
Speaker 3But I did see a lot of people were speculating that he made those faces because, like you said, he went up against. You know actual art, I mean he's an artist. He's an artist.
Speaker 1And his band's pretty good, oh his band is amazing.
Speaker 3But I did see a lot of people saying like that was the whole point of the Ken song is saying like there's so many other like Women out there like doing their things and like that are really good. But in the I'm just can like it was just like a parody song sure and so the fact that he beat out Billy Eilish, who had like even more of a message in her song. This is what people were saying like he was very confused like this is that was the whole point of the Barbie movie.
Speaker 1That that song, one to Billy Eilish is she did, yeah, they won. That song was fucking incredible.
Speaker 3That song's beautiful.
Speaker 1Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 3Yeah, for sure fucking Ryan Gosling. We should just call this segment hot Gosling from now on. Wow, oh please.

No words. Oh, watch out for my no words.
Speaker 1Wow. Okay you're spiteful.
Speaker 3Give me Okay hot goss. Kate Winslet keeps her Oscar in the bathroom so her guests can hold it and make acceptance speeches in the mirror without feeling self-conscious. She said you can always tell when someone does it, because they spend more time in the bathroom after they flushed and they come out looking slightly pink cheeked that is funny, because If I was at Kate Winslet's house and I went to the bathroom, and you just saw that and I saw that I would do that.
Speaker 1You would make an acceptance speech, not a speech, but I just like look in the mirror with the like I don't be stupid. But then I thought who the fuck is going to her house and who she letting in her house? What guests are she letting in her house?
Speaker 3That haven't already held one.
Speaker 1Yeah, or that they're like all famous, or like they're not going in there and like yeah, thank you, like in the mirror. Get the fuck out of here.
Speaker 3I did see someone comment and they said she did it for Leo.
Speaker 2His practice piece. Yeah, she'd let him go. He hasn't won yet he won, did he?
Speaker 1they won for the rivet in it. Oh yeah, nice, I don't know he yeah, he won, but he probably did that until he won. Oh, that's where he got his speech down, pat like yeah, that's why he was perfect in his speech and addressed like the Indian lands and how it's getting snowed in and shit and everyone was like oh.
Speaker 3But uh and then anything. This 21 year old girlfriend.

Speaker 1You just ruined this conversation he is a Scorpio.
Speaker 3Wow, I have to ask Becca.
Speaker 1He's a fake you, because all those fucking things are false, false advertising. Anyway, this guy's pushing 50 and, like in my mind, he's still just like a fucking stud and he's still getting all these girls and he's jack.
Speaker 3He's still jack for sure or he's still Romeo.
Speaker 1Remember him and Romeo dude, that movie was so good oh.
Speaker 3So good, yeah, okay, last one, the 45 year old tech CEO. I Don't know if you've heard about him.
Speaker 3No but he's a 45 year old tech. He's like a millionaire Jolionaire. He spends 2 million every year to reverse his age to 18. Like he's got a whole team of doctors and he also like, he spends 2 million every year to reverse his biological age and he even, like, does blood transfusions with his 18 year old son. What, yeah he? His whole goal is to ultimately get back to the biological age of 18. I I don't even know what to say. He's got a whole team like People who do MRIs on his ligaments and his like body and like yeah, if you're spending 2 million a year, you better have a whole fucking team.

Speaker 1I mean everyone could do that. I don't know. He's wasting money. That guy Okay, that's wild. That's a lot of money to be doing that.
Speaker 3Well, the thing is, what I have is that he wants to reverse his biological age 18, but he eats dinner, his dinner at 11 am, like that's his last one.
Speaker 1And he's nothing else.
Speaker 3No, that's his dinner 11 am. He starts his day out. I forgot if it was 4 or 6 am, but his dinner is at 11 am.
