Speaker 1I ? I mean , yes , I know where Albert is , I've also been there all right , there you have it , we are back .
Speaker 2We are live here in Nashville , tennessee , and she is wearing crocodile boots , black jeans , black shirt looks like a backstage crew outfit a hat that says oddies , what's oddies ?
Speaker 1that's not what it says at all .
Speaker 2I literally just told you oh yes , thank you okay , establishing 2014 2024 . Did you know , are you ?
Speaker 1okay , do we need to check your eyesight right now ?
Speaker 2my eyes actually messed up . Can you see that ? Yes , I can yeah , I think that's what they call a little conjunct virus stay away from me . I've had antibiotic drops for the past couple days so I think I'm in the clear or it could be a sty . Either way , it's been killing me . Today's the first day it's better and I have been changing a lot of .
Speaker 1I was gonna say . That's exactly what I was gonna say . You let you change a diaper and then wipe your face without washing man .
Speaker 2I don't know . I had a rough one the other day , but anyways , we got a body cat in the building .
Speaker 1Okay , I'm not gonna celebrate that , because it's that's not even what my house is yeah , so I got conjunct of eyes or a sty .
Speaker 2Are you a doctor ? What do you think ?
Speaker 1it looks more like a style , yeah , like the upper eyelid is big yes , it's not like your eye is a regular color and you have no gunk . Okay , yeah , I've had zero gunk it doesn't look like pink eye , but it does .
Speaker 2It looks like a sty how do you get a sty ?
Speaker 1just like bacteria along your waterline . A lot of women get it when they don't like wash their eyelashes , their makeup correctly really but I mean I'm sure there's other reasons . Again , as you pointed out , I am not a doctor well , you sound like one well , I just have had a sty before , so I educated myself on what was happening and took care of it well , a yearly , quarterly , how often , I know no no , what I've had , maybe like two in my whole life- that's gonna be rough . Some people are like prone to them okay so yeah this could be a new development .
Speaker 1You know , you can like develop allergies later in life . Maybe you're just one of the lucky ones that gets your teeth to fall out and your eyes just well .
Speaker 2I know I was looking at myself in the mirror last night and I had no tooth and my eye was swollen . I'm like I'm a fucking mess right now I'm a mess and Ray's like at least we've got a really beautiful baby . I was like , yeah , good thing , cuz I am shit . I don't know what I am , but here we are off patch man .
Speaker 1It's okay . Yeah , I know you will we'll get through it .
Speaker 2We're gonna start today's episode off with the good , the bad , the ugly , the good , the bad , the ugly and we're gonna kick it off to you , sam cat . We want to hear one thing in the news or trending that's good , one thing that's bad and one thing that's just flat out ugly , like my eye oh well , I did ugly , not necessarily visually no , that's fine , yeah , yeah , yeah should we tell everybody how much time you gave me to come up with my ideas ?
Speaker 1nope , don't do that as you guys can imagine .
Speaker 3It was days yeah , plenty , plenty of time for 40 hours 48 hours divided by okay .
Speaker 1What are we starting with ? Good , okay . So , moving back to my hat that you couldn't pronounce correctly my good trend , because I didn't really do news articles , I did trends . My good trend is country music artists opening more bars here in national Tennessee . I personally love it . I think it's different than any other city that America has . Yes , we are overcrowded , yes , there are a million bachelorettes , but I do think it's something unique that separates us from everywhere else . So , with that being said , a good trend Morgan Wallin is opening a bar near the Rhyman , luke Combs on Second Ave , eric Church , on the corner of second and Broadway and old Dominion , nice Odys , they're hopping over the bridge , they're going midtown . So if you've been in Asheville and you've been to what used to be rebar across from the celery , love your kung fu .
Speaker 2I loved rebar was the spot patio , all watching space not even football watching , just a nighttime . You're going out late . You're going to rebar .
Speaker 1I couldn't disagree with that more if I tried all right . I've . I really used rebar as a daytime hang okay because at night it turned into 21 year-old fratty bros okay , in my experience , right this is .
Speaker 2This was 10 years ago , so I was mid 20s so you were the fratty bro , I was never fratty bro .
Speaker 1I've seen the length of your shorts .
Speaker 2I beg to differ you think my short length is a fratty bro length ? Yes , 100% okay anyways .
Speaker 1So Odys is opening supposedly this summer , which is gonna be an old Dominion bar and it's been something in the works . Obviously , these things don't just like pop up overnight and I'm excited because I have completely bullied my way into a situation of bartending there . I miss bartending yeah and I just feel like what better way than to pick up a shift or two a week ? I mean my boss , I know the bosses pretty well , so I'm hoping they'll give me an opportunity to sling some drinks with their name on it .
Speaker 2But I'm excited so it's Odys like the like their version of Swifties , if you go to your fan of old Dominion Odie and no , but I feel like that's a great maybe .
Speaker 1I should tell them that . No , but it's just like OD . Whose bar is it ? It's Odys , oh de millions , oh de millions .
Speaker 2Oh , de millions oh letter D yeah , okay , but her hat says Odys , yes , odys got you like a nickname within the nickname all right , not Odys , not whatever you recall .
Speaker 1Right , even though I told you before we started filming what it was called and you still butchered it they might have .
Speaker 2They might have to change that name , cuz I bet you I'm not gonna be only one calling it Odys .
Speaker 1I can guarantee you , anyone who is a fan of old Dominion , who is going to that bar , will know exactly how to pronounce this , without any sort of help but you're not just gonna be marketing towards your fans . You want everybody in Nashville to come to your bar what I'm saying is word of mouth is powerful and people they have a million followers on Instagram that already know how to have millions of Bachelorette girls coming here with their girls and be like , oh , let's go to Odys exactly that's what it's called yeah , you see , you already butchered it made my point , so I digress .
Speaker 2All right , good news did you get paid for that ?
Speaker 1I didn't okay maybe I should , maybe I should make . Can you clip that out for me and I can send it to my boss ? Yeah , free advertising this is .
Speaker 2This is why Sam Kat and I's relationship is fantastic because I was on the car drive over . I'm like . I guarantee you we have such polar opposite topics and here she is talking about this brand new bar opening in Midtown , and my good news is that scientists spot the brightest object ever 500 trillion times more luminous than the Sun .
Speaker 1That's pretty cool yeah , no , that is so cool please tell me more .
Speaker 2Yeah , well , so quasars are the bright cores of distance gap , distant galaxies powered by supermassive black holes , and 12 billion light years away , one has been found that is shining brighter than 500 trillion Suns . That's pretty bright .
Speaker 1Sorry , I just fell asleep .
Speaker 2What .
Speaker 1Like okay .
Speaker 2I mean yeah , that's cool , that's cool . That's cool , but the cool part is that it's probably burnt out long ago and so now we're seeing it , because it was 12 billion light years away .
Speaker 1It's just impossible for me to wrap my head around that . And I understand the science behind it's wild , like how that's so astronomical , but it's just impossible for me to grasp .
Speaker 3I know Because something .
Speaker 1I'm seeing . It's like when Jeff was here and he was trying to explain how nothing else exists in the universe , like an absolute and incomparable , because he's just like this is science and I'm like but you literally just contradicted yourself and saying that things have been happening however many billions of years ago , and now they're just catching up . So how can you smugly sit on my love seat ?
Speaker 2and say that it doesn't exist . It's wild .
Speaker 1That's just blasphemy .
Speaker 2I know it's hard to wrap your brain around this Like 12 billion years ago , but now we're seeing it . And how do they know it was 12 billion years ago ?
Speaker 1Because of science and projections and equations and things that give them that answer , someone way smarter than you and I , combined times 12 billion , figured that out .
Speaker 2Damn . That's my good news .
Speaker 1I mean , I guess that's good news .
Speaker 2That's cool .
Speaker 1Hey , if that's what gets you going ?
Speaker 2who am I Gets me going ? The bad .
Speaker 1The bad , my bad trend again I didn't know , I did no news . I know my bad trends . My bad trend is just the incessant over or like encouragement to over consume on the internet .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1There is no such thing as an Amazon must have .
Speaker 2Right .
Speaker 1There's nothing on Amazon you must have .
Speaker 2We lived years without Amazon .
Speaker 1And it's just like every time and I understand an algorithm and I do watch it , so I am guilty , like I'm giving myself this content . I know how social media works , but every time I sign on Instagram it's like the new trendy matching set whatever plastic organizational bins you need , matching this and like not for nothing , but being alive is very expensive . Being a single adult is very expensive . Not having a dual income household , having children is expensive . All of that adds up , it's like you don't need to feel bad because you can't fully stock a guest room with like hundreds of dollars worth of products . It seems so casual and blasé on the internet like , oh , you don't have a fully stocked guest bathroom , you peasant . I just think it's a bad trend . I feel like it is almost like subconsciously hurts you I don't know , it's not like punches you straight in the face . It's kind of one of those things that I feel like sits with you .
Speaker 2And it's like you know , is there going to be a breaking point where the bubble pops ?
Speaker 1I mean it has to be .
Speaker 2Because it just feels like everything is sales .
Speaker 1Or in all those girls that come on and they're like watch me try on my Amazon haul , like that's hundreds of dollars , and then you don't know what they're returning , what they're keeping . They might have just purchased it to make the video and then they return it and they don't actually even own that . Also , you know this better than I do how many things are you sent for free ? So it's like that girl is not spending $500 on that LED red light face mask that you want and that she's pushing for you to buy because she earns a commission off of it , which I'm not hating on that .
Speaker 1I understand that being an influencer can be super lucrative , and if it pays the bills for your family , I mean that's also great . But it's just like I don't know . I just feel like it's such a bad trend that I thought would have kind of died out by now .
Speaker 2But I feel like it's only ramping up .
Speaker 1Yeah , because now I got TikTok shop and everything and it's so quick to just click and all of your information is saved , and now it's at your front door .
Speaker 2It's all like now on my feed . It's all baby stuff , baby stuff , every other freaking video .
Discussion on Technology and Privacy
Speaker 2I'm like do I need that but you don't , though that's .
Speaker 1The thing is that it's just , but it's so . It's sneaky to me . That's what I was saying . I feel like it's subconscious , where it's just like why the fuck do I need 19 plastic bins for oranges in my fridge ? It looks sexy , I'm like I want a fridge that looks like that .
Speaker 1I love organization as much as the next clean freak , but I don't need to spend $150 on things . My fridge is what I spent money on to hold the oranges . I don't need the plastic bins on top of it . There are drawers within your fridge . You don't need it , Sammy .
Speaker 2It's crazy . You don't need it . Yeah , everybody's trying to make a buck . I know Creating these businesses , creating these products . Everybody wants to work for themselves , work online , work through Instagram and like I said , though , that is a positive thing .
Speaker 1I love that there are women out there that are feeding their kids and they don't have to leave their home . They get to be there with their kids , but it's just like I don't know . Something's got to give there .
Speaker 2I've never heard the word haul so much than I have in the last month .
Speaker 1Is this a new thing ?
Speaker 2I'm like that and get ready with me . I cannot stand .
Speaker 1Get ready with me to go to the lawyer's office .
Speaker 2There's a guy on Instagram . It's hilarious and he makes fun of them .
Speaker 1Is it haters ?
Speaker 2He's just this guy and he's like all right , get ready with me . And he's using like butter and like peanut butter .
Speaker 1I know who you're talking about .
Speaker 2I've seen him he does like in the car .
Speaker 1Yeah , yeah , I don't know what his name is , but shout out to that creator .
Speaker 2Because I literally saw one yesterday Get ready with me and I thought it was satire , like I thought she was actually like being funny , oh yeah , no , but she was being serious , serious , right now .
Speaker 1I did see a girl who was it kind of broke my heart . This girl was 10 , 11 . Get ready with me to go to the playground , whatever , and I'm like I hate it , I do . I just like be a kid . I know I sound like a grumpy old , get off my lawn , man , but yeah , you don't need it . What are you getting ready for ? You're 10 . Yeah , I was getting ready with you . Should consist of brushing your teeth and putting on some limited to outfit .
Speaker 2Right .
Speaker 1Like it's 97 .
Speaker 2Yeah , I was thinking last night when I was just sitting with the locks . I'm like I'm not going to give this boy an iPad or anything for years . I do not want him to be an iPad baby . And there's probably parents right now they're like just wait .
Speaker 1Oh , don't even say the words , just wait .
Speaker 3And I'm not judging .
Speaker 2I don't I hate anybody judging any parenting , I guess now that I have a kid but an iPad .
Speaker 1Okay , Wait also . But here's the thing Clearly I don't have kids . The words just wait , absolutely send me . I don't know why it makes me irate . There is a difference between judging and just having an opinion .
Speaker 2Exactly yeah .
Speaker 1You can have an opinion whether or not you have children Exactly A personal preference . I'm not coming into your home and being like you're a bad person because you do this Like I'm not judging you You're a bad parent Like no .
Speaker 2Yeah , I just have my own personal . I just have my own personal . Yes , or it's what you like .
Speaker 1Yes , so there , I would just really like to emphasize that there is a difference . I feel like people come for people , especially on the internet , where it's like I wasn't saying that you're a bad person if you do this , you're a bad parent if you do this . I'm just saying personally .
Speaker 2Right , this is just my opinion , yeah .
Speaker 1Take it or leave it . Move on with your life and continue doing what you're doing , or just . I don't care Exactly , this is just my opinion . Calm down everybody .
Speaker 2Yeah Well , that kind of brings me to my bad a little bit . Not really my bad was it was going to start out with AI technology .
Speaker 1Yes , yeah , right Scares me .
Speaker 2Because it is kind of scary . It's really cool , though . It's really exciting and it's really good . Too good , it's too good .
Speaker 1I mean , have we not learned anything from the movies that they've been creating for the last I don't know 50 years , of how quickly robots and AI will destroy the world ?
Speaker 2Right , and it's like man , how many jobs are going to be taken over by that ?
Speaker 1Well , there's already been so many jobs have been taken over by technology in general . Right , you go to McDonald's now I have not been to McDonald's in forever and I went . I stopped at McDonald's when I was on a road trip with my parents and you walk in and there's machines . You just order at a screen and then there are people in the back cooking the food . But for how long You're gonna walk into a McDonald's in 20 years ? There's not gonna be a human on site . It's all robots .
Speaker 2Yeah , like would I just post it on my Instagram . The Astro thing . Did you see that ? It's an astromobile . It's like a little robot that moves around the gym and it's got like a periscope , thing which is terrifying , but like pretty cool . It's cool for , like , security reasons . So if I'm at home and then it hears something , it'll go to it and then it'll send me a live view of what's there .
Speaker 1But if someone's like robbing you , you think they don't have like .
Speaker 2No , it pulls out a gun and it shoots them .
Speaker 1Tranquilizes them .
Speaker 2And then you show up on the scene and get to a rescue Cool cool , cool .
Speaker 1Yeah , I mean obviously , why wouldn't that happen ? Yeah , it just . I mean the same thing , like I don't have an Alexa and I don't have a hey Google . I don't have any of those things because .
Speaker 2Never use them , siri . How often do you use Siri ? I mean , I kind of use Siri For what ?
Speaker 1When I'm too lazy to type something out , or if I'm cooking , I say hey , Siri play Lee Wood Mac yeah . But those things have . I mean it's proven that they do listen when you're talking in your house . I don't know , I sound like a conspiracy theorist and Look at that .
Speaker 4What the fuck see your choices will help me learn the ones you like .
Speaker 2That's crazy . It went from that conversation to start playing Cinderella by Mac Miller , featuring Ty Dalla sign .
Speaker 1Because he said Fleetwood Mac and it heard Mac Miller , so it went with it but that's what I'm saying like . That's so nosy , that's so creepy .
Speaker 3That is crazy . We did not plan that , by the way .
Speaker 1That was just organic content right there . That's so weird , that's exactly what I'm talking about . They're listening all the time . That kind of stresses me out . I don't know what the fuck I'm saying in my house . I don't even know what I'm saying on a public podcast . Can you imagine when I'm in private ?
Speaker 2I mean this is what Dusty sent me the other day because I was talking about my tooth being out , and then he goes . Okay , I just disabled my Instagram . The shit posted on my search window Only discusses with you be a text , and this was right after I talked to him . It's a dentist or it's a lady with no front tooth ?
Speaker 1Yes , I'm telling you , even more so than I think . Speaking like texting , they graze over your texts . And here's the thing you and I , and probably 99.9% of anyone listening and in the world is guilty of this as well that when you update your phone or you download whatever , accept terms and conditions .
Speaker 2I know . No , we read it right . It's like 35 pages long .
Speaker 1They're gonna get us and they're like yeah , we told you that we were listening and watching and managing your keystrokes and everything . So when you text your friend about a missing front tooth and then we just happen to give you that advertising and then you purchase it Sorry , you fell subject to that , but that was the whole time Do anything about ? It and you accepted it in these terms and conditions . Yeah , and you're just like well that's true , that's why you're terrifying .
Speaker 2You just need to move out to Montana .
Speaker 1Why do you think AI is cool but not good ?
Speaker 2You think it's bad . I think it's useful for a lot of things , but like Taylor Swift , nudes .
Speaker 1Did you hear about that ?
Speaker 2No .
Speaker 1Her nudes got leaked , but as AI . Okay , Booth , let's start over it's AI .
Speaker 2It's not real .
Speaker 1Did you not bring up this subject ?
Speaker 2matter . Now you're mad at me because you think I'm lying .
Speaker 1You said it leaked Taylor Swift's news , but then AI nudes , so it's not her body , but it looks pretty
Technology, Money, and Millennial Midlife Crises
Speaker 1real .
Speaker 2Well , that's the crazy thing too , is that now there could be controversial things that arise from AI , like Donald Trump , right , who had conversations leaked in the past and he was always like this isn't me . I mean , he's probably lying . Like you know , there's always impersonators , but now they have so much audio . They have so much audio of me and you now on the internet just from talking that you could literally make anything you wanted to any sentence . Come out of our mouths and release it . And release it , yeah .
Speaker 1And enough it is . I mean , it's terrifying , just in general , the accessibility that you have . Even I mean I try and be mindful about and I am no one , nobody's really following me around , but just in general , as a woman and to be safe , not posting in real time .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1Not giving them more to work with than I already am , like , obviously , sitting here talking with you . Like you said they can edit anything to make me say anything yeah . But just , I mean , with a little it's not even a lot of effort anymore . With a little bit of effort you can expose yourself pretty quickly .
Speaker 2They must love that feature on the Bachelor . Now the AI tool yeah . Because they were cutting up sentences . When I was there 10 years ago , like I literally remember , it was the third week or something and they panned to me and it said I . And then they panned away for me and said love her . And they used me saying love from like weeks after .
Speaker 2Yeah , I'm like I didn't say that I'm not in love with her . Yeah , it's been . I've literally been here for like four days . These people at home are going to think I'm crazy .
Speaker 1They did . Yeah , absolutely . That's why they loved it and that's why they watch it , and they know that that's what gets the audience going , and so yeah .
Speaker 2I mean creepy . You just say any loves already they don't even know her . But I'm like yeah .
Speaker 1And then they got to know you and they're like , oh yeah , he is creepy . Yeah , exactly .
Speaker 2It checks out . So then now they got the AI tool . But then also , when I walked in here , you guys both producer Andrew and you said that your phones don't work .
Speaker 1Oh yeah Big .
Speaker 2What's going on with that ?
Speaker 1I woke up this morning and I had no service , but I had obviously full bars because I was , or full wifi because I was in my house . And then you texted me with plenty of time to think of subject matter for this podcast that I was already driving to , and so once I left wifi , my phone just said SOS . So I walked in and I was just like , have you ever ? I asked Andrew , have you ever just had SOS , like , and you're not in a dead zone , you're in your house . And he goes , oh , do you have AT&T ? Immediately and I said yes and he said , oh , it's a nationwide thing .
Speaker 1So I haven't really done extensive research , seeing as I found out about it about 20 seconds before we started this , but apparently T-Mobile , verizon and AT&T are struggling with their services today , which I don't know . I've heard a lot of theories that the next pandemic is going to be digital and they have you seen the one , that movie on Netflix with Julia Roberts , the end of the world movie ? I can't remember the name of it now it's escaping me , but it kind of follows the same plot line .
Speaker 2She was like blindfolded or something . No , no .
Speaker 1Which one was that ?
Speaker 2Which one was that ? First of all , that was Sandra Bullock , and that was a completely different movie , but it's relatively recent with Julia Roberts .
Speaker 1Let me look it up and well , I don't know if I can because my phone doesn't work , but it basically is just like a bunch of technology starts to fail and like Teslas are driving themselves and crashing into each other because they can't stop , because there's like a digital takeover .
Speaker 2Well , that's what is the biggest threat to the country , to the world . And there was something on the podcast . I don't know where it was . I saw a clip on TikTok and there's a guy talking about war . Right yeah , there'll be wars , nuclear war . The US isn't going to be really threatened by that because our technology is so far advanced and better than every other country , so it's not really that scary for us to get hit with a nuclear weapon . But it's like the technology war is the biggest one that would take down the country in like 15 minutes .
Speaker 1And the easiest . I mean , I don't know if it's easiest , what do I know ? I'm literally nobody , but I'm just saying that it is less physical effort . You don't have to send millions of bodies in and all this stuff that , like you know , when you and I were in school and we were learning about war , the picture of war in our head was much different than a war that could wage today digitally and electronically and technology , and that's what the scary part is .
Speaker 1The movie is called Leave the World Behind . It's very strange , it's very interesting , but it's one of those things that doesn't feel too far off , feels pretty feasible , which you know . I saw this trend , speaking of trends and good , bad and ugly , but that the millennial midlife crisis is homesteading . Like before . It was like you buy a red convertible and cheat on your wife and whatever you know , like the stereotypical midlife crisis . Now it's like you move out to land and get chickens and like have a farm . And I'm just saying to myself I've never felt more exposed because that's all I want to do .
Speaker 1I want to have a quarter mile driveway . I want to live off my land . I want to have my own chickens . I want to like not depend on mass chain anything .
Speaker 2I feel like that's David Beckham right now . The dude keeps posting videos . I think of him and his chickens like eggs in the morning .
Speaker 1I'm sure he's a millennial . I love that for him and I that's like . I think that's a benchmark in success for that . That's one of my goals now .
Speaker 2I'm like oh right , I'm like that dude has been everywhere in the world , been the most famous guy in the world . At one point married the you know super famous rock band girl , best soccer player .
Speaker 1He's called Spice Girls , a rock band , yeah .
Speaker 2But he's had the highest of highs ever and now he's probably like just trying to find anything to get his like adrenaline going or get like some type of feeling .
Speaker 4Do you think that ?
Speaker 2Yeah , I'm like he's probably experienced everything in his life that now it's like what could I do ?
Speaker 1Maybe just chillin .
Speaker 2Yeah , and just chillin , which is that's cool .
Speaker 1It is weird I'm to sound cliche . I don't care if I sound cliche . I do truly believe that like a lot of the fun in life is figuring it out and like going through it and the quote unquote journey , if you will . That makes me want to gag saying that out loud . That I feel like that's why sometimes really successful people kind of fall into a rut or a level of depression because , like you said , he's achieved so so , so much .
Speaker 3He's not old , he's young , he's got a lot of life to live .
Speaker 1And it's like OK , well now , what do I do ? Yeah , exactly , and it's almost like oh , kind of like an empty feeling , yeah , and it's like I mean it goes to show that figuring it out and going on the journey is a lot of the fun . When you do it so young , it's kind of like well , now , what do I do ?
Speaker 2Yeah , how do I spend the rest of my days ? He's got a beautiful family , kids , all the money in the world . He can go anywhere he wants , do anything he wants .
Speaker 1Yeah , but the good news is that he has all the money in the world , so his sources are not limited .
Speaker 2Right .
Speaker 1He can really dig deep and find something .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1That I'm sure will entertain him . Yeah , and when I can you . I just I could not imagine just money , not even being like an object . It doesn't deter anything , I know .
Speaker 2It's weird .
Speaker 190 percent 99 percent .
Speaker 2I feel like I know 9 percent of people don't know that .
Speaker 1Money is the biggest thing in the room . It's the biggest elephant in the room about any situation .
Speaker 2Yeah , and it's bullshit when everybody's like it doesn't make you happier . Ok , that might be the truth , where it doesn't make you happier Having more money , but it can provide some happiness A lot less stressful . Yes , you don't have to wake up worrying about it . You don't have to grind all day to achieve it Right . You can live your life in a more content lifestyle , peaceful , and spend more time doing the things you want to do . So , yeah , maybe it doesn't make you happier , but it definitely makes life a lot less stressful .
Speaker 1I think it can contribute to your happiness .
Speaker 2Yeah , and I'd much rather yes yeah , yeah , to an extent for sure . But if you buy , say , the best car you've ever wanted to buy , then you'd be like , ok , that's cool . And then , like a couple months later you'd be like , eh , it's the same .
Speaker 1Sure , but if I had an endless supply , I would be going on bomb-ass vacations with people that I loved . That would provide me a lot of happiness . Yeah , I agree with you , I would be the most generous rich person too , like hi , just wanted to let you know I already bought your plane ticket and you have like 13 hours to pack and I'll see you in yeah you don't need to pack because I bought you all your clothes , that's fair .
Speaker 2And your suitcase .
Speaker 1Well , I would just give them a cordial 13 hour heads up , I guess , yeah 13 hours . Yeah .
Speaker 2Or it'd be like hey , look outside your window . There's a chopper ? Chopper , yeah , but I wouldn't buy a chopper . Those things go down all the time .
Speaker 1Listen , if Kobe Bryant can die in one of those , so can I . I'll never get in one , oh yeah . I don't know why that his death literally changed my view of helicopters . They've always been bad , but I don't know why that particular , I don't know why I was just like wow , he seemed invincible to me because he's like such an elite athlete and all that stuff and I'm like dang , if he can go down , I can go down and I just have never looked at a helicopter the same since that death , yeah even that country .
Speaker 2Do here . Yep , gentry , yeah , yeah , that was before Kobe yeah .
Speaker 1But still it . Just I don't know why Kobe was a turning point for me . I have no yeah .
Speaker 2I mean , like you said , he's looked at as a super human hero . Everybody in the world knows him and , just like that , you were the one who told me about Kobe dying . I remember I was in the gym .
Speaker 1Yeah , we were in the lobby , you're like Kobe Bryant died and I was like , are you kidding ? Like yeah . And you're like Sam Kat . Why would I joke about that ? So defensive immediately . And I was like OK , sorry didn't mean to offend you and I was like I don't know . I just feel like , out of all the things that were going to come out of your mouth , kobe Bryant dies was not in the top one billion . I know , and then in a helicopter was not in the top three billion .
Speaker 2It was like one of those things where you know where you were , like 9-11 . Yes , I remember sitting by the desk , got a mess on my phone . I went to the computer . I'm like what ? Yes , I was there .
Speaker 1Yeah , same with when Michael Jackson died . I remember when Michael Jackson died , I was there , I was on the airport . I was , I was babysitting , yeah . It is wild . Had those things kind of stick out to you , yeah , but do you have any of those memories when something good happened ?
Speaker 2There's this new planet that's like 1500 times bigger prior than the sun I was driving here and I saw that . What would be a good thing , though Like what would be ?
Speaker 1what would be a good thing ?
Speaker 2Like like personally to you and your life , or just like how Michael Jackson died . That's a terrible thing . Kobe Bryant died that's a terrible thing .
Speaker 1What is the good version of that Like let's swing the flag ? What is the good version of that Like let's swing ? The pendulum the other way . The good it's terrible that we can't think of something good in where we were .
Speaker 3Yeah .
Speaker 1Like we can something bad , and I'm learning this in real time .
Speaker 2Yeah , same . Maybe that's why when the Twin Towers fell .
Speaker 1Fourth grade no , no , no . Sixth grade Mr King's fourth period , class I was in the second row . I'll never forget .
Speaker 2Yeah , I was a sophomore in high school , walking from gym class .
Speaker 1I even remember what I was wearing .
Speaker 2Yeah , I remember walking to science class and then the teacher next door kept me coming in and out to talk with our teacher because his wife took a flight out of the same airport and he couldn't get in touch with her .
Speaker 1And it was 2001 . So it wasn't like you know , nowadays . Yeah , you can just call him .
Speaker 2Because it wasn't Connecticut , and so we had an airport in our town and yeah , that's terrifying . The girl that I was dating . Her dad was in New York City .
Speaker 1Yeah .
Speaker 2That day .
Speaker 1And it's been however many years and when they do you know , the memorial shows documentaries every 9-11 .
Speaker 3Yeah .
Speaker 1It's never , not just as devastating to me , I know . I can't imagine it gives me the chills . It's like I can't believe that happened in my lifetime .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1And was . So I mean , I don't know . I feel like the other big historical event that we learned about that would be similar would be Pearl Harbor , and that almost seems I don't want to say fake because I feel like that's offensive , but it was just so . Before my time it was in a space that's so far away from the mainland where I lived , like it just was a historical reference that I learned about instead of like a history being made that I was living Right .
Speaker 1And I wasn't even there . I was in Chicago in sixth grade hanging out Mr King's class .
Speaker 2Yeah , I mean , now I'm just trying to think of something good .
Speaker 1Yeah , isn't that terrible that we can't ?
Speaker 2Yeah . I don't know .
Generational Fashion Trends and TikTok Stories
Speaker 2What does that say about humans ?
Speaker 1Focus on the bad . Yeah , it's easy to do .
Speaker 2But what about the ugly ?
Speaker 1Oh , back on track booth . So again , mine's a trend and mine is a little more personal which I feel like I don't know your target demographic of who's listening to you here , but I am a millennial , you are a millennial and I've joked about it on my Instagram previously , but I just feel like the ugly trend is being inundated with Gen Z ripping on absolutely everything millennials do .
Speaker 2Oh wow , you do sound like the old man on the get off my lawn right now .
Speaker 1And here's the thing You're going to start a war . No , I'm not going to start a war , I just don't get it , because I was like maybe I just I had selective memory and I used to make fun of Gen X and I just don't remember .
Speaker 2That's what I'm saying . What were you doing at their age ?
Speaker 1Okay , but then I put out a poll on my Instagram . I've asked my other millennial friends . I'm like did we do this ? Every single one of them was like no , I gave zero shits about what ?
Speaker 2Give us some examples here .
Speaker 1I log on or TikTok , instagram , whatever , and it's just like , oh my God , sandals are so choo-kee .
Speaker 2What's choo-kee ?
Speaker 1Choo-kee is what Gen Z calls millennials .
Speaker 2Choo-kee , what's a G ?
Speaker 1CH-E-U-G-Y . Choo-kee , wow , oh my God . No show . Socks are so choo-kee . Oh my God . Everything I'm like okay . So what am I supposed to wear ? A brown paper bag .
Speaker 2Yeah , you should just be like first of all , girl , everything you're wearing right now is what we wore in the 90s .
Speaker 1And it was ugly then , and it's ugly now .
Speaker 3It's still ugly now . We already got rid of that . You got the chunky shoes , the baggy pants .
Speaker 2I watch people on Instagram and TikTok and I'm like you look like .
Speaker 1We already did this . We already did this when we were getting our adult teeth . We already cleared this from the fashion archives and you brought it back . Have you walked around Target lately ?
Speaker 2But it looks like they just throw anything . It looks like your friend , who's trying to make you look terrible , says close your eyes . I'm going to put something on you .
Speaker 1It looks like .
Speaker 2And it's like that's fashion .
Speaker 1No , it looks like you are doing a walk of shame yeah . But like with sneakers that actually fit you , instead of whoever shoes you borrowed from the frat house that you're walking home from . I don't understand why .
Speaker 2But now do we sound old ? We sound like the old people . No , no , no .
Speaker 1Listen , I don't mind sounding old , I love sounding old . Great , I have more experience than you . I'm just . I don't understand the obsession with like , oh my God , millennials are so gross , they're so cringe , they're so this , and I'm just like I never felt that way about the people older than me . I never cared .
Speaker 2I kind of socked .
Speaker 1Are you fucking kidding me ? That kind of socks someone who is older than me is wearing in their day to day life what ?
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1And I know that , like social media , contributes to it and trends Big time we're gonna have that .
Speaker 2One person sees it .
Speaker 1But you guys have nothing better to do , and that's the thing they don't . They don't . I'm like , just wait , baby , call me when you don't have to pay your property taxes . Call me when you go to escrow and you're freaking out because like yeah , call me when you're trying to figure out . All of a sudden , you sneezed and threw your black . You're black . You're back out .
Speaker 3And you're like holy shit , how should ?
Speaker 1I go to the doctor . So when you have those kind of things to worry about , then maybe you're not going to be concerned about how high my socks come up on my ankles .
Speaker 2Chewy cat .
Speaker 1Emerson or whatever Gen Z name you have , like I don't , and that's the thing .
Speaker 2but they all come back . So what they're saying ? Tube socks or the look ? No , they , Because we've always had tube socks .
Speaker 1The mid ankle . And that's the thing is that I don't even really know what's trending . I don't know what's cute . I know that a black , high rise skinny jean will never go out of style , and I don't really care what a 17 year old with no pores tells me on the internet .
Speaker 1I'm like yeah it must be nice to not have a wrinkle . So boomers are yelling at us that we ruined the economy and we killed it with avocado toast and not having children . And then , on the other side , gen Z is like oh my God , I can't believe you're wearing those socks . It's like I can't win .
Speaker 2But it is every generation going at .
Speaker 1But not Gen X is just like coasting baby , Just coasting .
Speaker 2What's the demographic for that ? What's the age ?
Speaker 1Exactly that's what I'm saying , like 47 , I think I know Gen Z and Millennial Cusp is 97 . I think it's to like 80 , 80 to 97 , maybe . So anyone born before that is technically Gen X , and then , you know , in the 60s is boomers . I'm not sure I'm butchering this . I'm sure someone's like screaming in their car right now at me to get it right , but Gen X is just coasting . I'm like . I feel like I identify as a Gen X .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1Nobody's ripping on them , they're just living their best life .
Speaker 3No one cares , and I , but that's what I'm saying I never cared what they were doing .
Speaker 1I'm like , hey , you guys are trying to figure out as well .
Speaker 2Yeah . It seems pretty simple to me . That's my only trend .
Speaker 1I know we're getting old , but I just , I don't , I don't care , I don't , I don't know why Gen Z ? Cares . It seems like misplaced energy . We could be doing much better things with that .
Speaker 2We could , but hey , teach their own right .
Speaker 1To each their own Is that what they say . I mean , I guess .
Speaker 2All right , my ugly .
Speaker 1What's your ugly ?
Speaker 2This is . This is trending right now . I don't know if you've seen this . You've had to have seen this . I don't know my phone's not working . Tisa Risa no idea .
Speaker 1Have you heard about ?
Speaker 2this ? No idea . Oh man , andrew , have you heard about Tisa Risa ? What ? Okay , no , tisa Risa , I don't know . Okay , so this is Garo on TikTok and she did this 50-part series . She's got . She's amassed over like hundreds of millions of views .
Speaker 1Okay .
Speaker 2And her name is Tisa Risa , and it's who the Fuck Did .
Speaker 1I Marry . Yeah , okay , actually , dre told me about it when I was at your house yesterday so that I feel like that's cheating . So I didn't figure that out on my own she .
Speaker 2Yeah , I heard from Dre . I'm like what are you listening to , just like all day .
Speaker 1Yes , she said there's 50 videos .
Speaker 2Oh , you listen to 50 videos but she'll play it .
Speaker 1and she said she puts her phone down on the counter and just like , takes care of whatever she's doing and listens to it like a podcast , just tell it in detail and in order With that being said , I do have a public service announcement .
Speaker 3The series who the Fuck Did I Marry is not something that you have to sit down and hold your phone and watch . I did it the way I did it so that way you actually can listen to it as an audience .
Speaker 2So this girl literally just sits in front of her phone and it has 50-plus videos , I think .
Speaker 1But what an intriguing way to get information out . She has her own podcast right now , but it's on TikTok and she now has 2.3 million followers .
Speaker 2Yes , 21.6 million likes .
Speaker 1How many minutes until she has a Netflix documentary ?
Speaker 2That's what Dre was saying . I was like , yeah , probably . I mean look at .
Speaker 1Well , give us a T . What does she talk about ?
Speaker 2I don't even think it needs 50 parts . I said the same thing to Dre . So Dre , give me a 30-second recap of what is going on with this girl .
Speaker 1Okay , but the girlies out there love true crime docs .
Speaker 2So just because , you want the 37 .
Speaker 1Hey , I love true crime docs 30-second recap doesn't mean that the rest of the world does .
Speaker 4I'm going to try not to leave anything important out recently .
Speaker 2Okay , I'm going to try and find the quickest recap here on TikTok and just play it for you guys , because I cannot sit here and explain it .
Speaker 1Is this going to make me like afraid to live by myself ?
Speaker 2No , it's just some girl who Love Love .
Speaker 4That's f***ed . I'm here . Risa Tisa from Georgia has gone viral after she outed her ex-husband as a pathological liar and master manipulator in a 50-part TikTok series . The nearly eight-hour-long saga broke down every step of Risa's explosive relationship with ex-husband's legion , detailing the lies he told to con her into a relationship . Risa says he gave false promises of hidden wealth , offering to buy her lavish gifts , including paying for her rent and bills , but would fake phone calls with financial advisors and find excuses not to pay . He even said he was working as the vice president of a condiment company . She discovered he was in fact unemployed and cheating with his ex-wife . Her suspicions came to a head when she was asked to provide her spouse's social security number for a new job , only to discover he had lied about where he lived , where he went to school and said she was forced to run a background check on him . Her ex-husband has now hit back at her claims , telling her to stop lying . The real reason I left you you cheated . I'll call you if the house were , bradley
Pathological Liar Saga Unraveled
Speaker 4.
Speaker 4Regardless of whose side you're on , the dramatic saga has left online users second-guessing their own partner's credibility . I need those security numbers . I'm sure we're counting . We have . Obviously we're counting .
Speaker 1Okay , so First of all , what she said no matter which side you're on , how are their sides ?
Speaker 2I know because somebody said yesterday they're like , yeah , he came out and said all of it's a lie . I'm like you're telling me all of it's a lie man .
Speaker 1No , it's terrifying that I feel as though this is not the first time I've heard of a situation like this .
Speaker 2Like there are other documentaries that I've watched , I know I almost said a story , asking if anybody out there following us has any type of stories like that we're . I'm sure there are , but not to that extent maybe . I guess he had a twin brother who was successful doing all that stuff .
Speaker 1So he was just using his life .
Speaker 2So he lied about family members getting or being killed during COVID went , took her out to a grave site which apparently they weren't even there . Yeah , that's a whole other thing but I'm like man 50 parts , she's Eight hours worth of content is great .
Speaker 1Yeah , no , she's playing the game and she's doing it correctly . And also , yes , I want to know every detail . Give me eight hours worth of content and something that you can put on while you're cleaning your house and have entertainment . I love that , but I cannot imagine . I just don't understand . I understand lies , obviously . I understand lies Everybody lies but there are people who , I feel like , can't help themselves . They don't even know what reality versus the lie is . There's such a pathological liar .
Speaker 2Because they convinced themselves .
Speaker 1Yes , yes , and then they believe that that is reality or that's the truth and it's . I mean , I don't want to say it's common , but I feel like it's common .
Speaker 2For sure .
Speaker 1More common than I'd like it to be .
Speaker 2I bet that there's so many people that live these double lives .
Speaker 1But then you marry them , you commit your life with them and then you find out because you had to find their social security number . Yeah , Miss me with that .
Speaker 2Also , I mean this girl stayed with them through a lot of red flags .
Speaker 1Like , but when you're in love you don't see them as much .
Speaker 2I think she was pregnant too . And that also adds to the stress yeah , exactly . But , and they also started dating and he moved in like a couple of weeks later and then he started like buying her stuff , which she was like okay .
Speaker 1There are the trends that it's like you know right out from the beginning . Some of the things that they do really backs up who they say that they are and then , as time goes on , all of a sudden they're faking financial calls , or they have to do this or they can't buy that . We can't go on this trip anymore . Like have you seen bad surgeon on Netflix ?
Speaker 2Is that the doctor death guy .
Speaker 1The one that puts the plastic tracheas in people's necks ? Yeah , no , it's . It's like two part . First of all , he was a fraud in a medical space and was like killing patients and using them as like guinea pigs . Basically , he did all of the research backwards , where you're supposed to test in a lab and then go through all of these procedures until you're able to perform on a human , and he somehow faked everything , faked the results and started experimenting on people . And that's one half of it . But the other half is that he had a lavish life than he was engaged to this woman who ended up being a journalist . Then come to find out he has multiple women , multiple families , he speaks seven different languages across literally the entire world , and it just like unravels , piece by piece , which sounds similar to .
Speaker 2Yeah , risa Tisa .
Speaker 1Risa Tisa , who the hell names her kid Risa .
Speaker 2Her last name is Tisa .
Speaker 1Is that really her name ?
Speaker 2Yeah , I mean , that's like if I had a girl naming her Ruth , Ruth Booth .
Speaker 1Oh , I kind of like that though .
Speaker 2Risa . Tisa is a wild name .
Speaker 1And you know what it's going to go down in history , because she is a yeah , she's going to be a famous , she's going to get a ton of money .
Speaker 2She's going to get all these brand deals and you know what ? Dravers trying to tell me that she's making millions off of the creator fund for TikTok . There's no way she's making that much .
Speaker 1I bet you she will eventually . But good for her . She earned it . She married a pathological liar who tried to ruin her life , and now she's going to make money off . Listen , if you're going to be a psycho , that's up to you . But who said I can't make money off it ?
Speaker 2Yeah , Get it girl Risa yeah .
Speaker 1I just also just add that to the list of reasons . I'm like you know what , I'm okay , alone , I'm good . I just feel like every time I'm like I should try to hear stories like this and I'm like I'm good , I'm good . That sounds terrifying . I'd rather be alone for the rest of my entire life than marry someone who's just a pathological liar from top to bottom .
Speaker 2But I gotta imagine the odds of that are pretty slim . But how do you know ? You don't know .
Speaker 1Sam Kent , they're very convincing Until you try it . Oh , I'm good , I'm on a hiatus , I'm good . Thank you so much for your concern , all right .
Speaker 2Well , there you have it .
Speaker 1The good , bad and the ugly , the good , the bad , the ugly .
Speaker 2Thank you guys for tuning in today . Hopefully you get your service back .
Speaker 1I would see where we're at .
Speaker 2But hey , you said it earlier .
Speaker 1Still says no , no docs , it should be nice .
Speaker 2It should be a good feeling , freeing right . You don't have to watch everybody's selling you shit . You don't gotta watch .
Speaker 1No , no , my wifi still works .
Corporate America and Cell Phone Nostalgia
Speaker 1I'm just talking about , like I don't know , people who are working in corporate America right now . Like what is it ? It's 11 o'clock on a weekday .
Speaker 2Yeah .
Speaker 1What if you had a very important business call and you can't conduct it anymore Too ?
Speaker 2bad , so sad .
Speaker 1Yeah , okay , cool , that's . Thank you so much for your empathy . I just feel like that could really fuck up a lot of things that we're not even thinking about right now . Just because I'm in my own little bubble and safe doesn't mean that it has repercussions across . Yeah , I don't know the world . How far is this going ? Or is it just America ?
Speaker 2Could be just America . That would be scary . But if you're like me and you got T-Mobile , you should have full bars 5G right now . I'm looking good over here . You have T-Mobile , T-Mobile . Everybody always asks me why I have T-Mobile . It's great . I got it when I was back and forth from Canada and with my ex because it was free Canadian minutes . You got free minutes to Canada and Mexico .
Speaker 1Speaking of being old , remember when you had to wait until 9 PM to make free calls .
Speaker 2Oh yeah .
Speaker 1I saw a meme that was like I told a Gen Z that I used to have to pay 10 seconds per or 10 seconds 10 cents per text message , and they asked me what kind of medication I was on and I was like that's fair . I would also not believe them if someone told me that in modern day times as well . But that was it , kids , back when I was wearing my no show socks and pissing you off .
Speaker 2There she is . She is the angry man that wants to get off her lawn .
Speaker 1I'm not angry and I don't want you to get off my lawn , but I do want to put chickens on my lawn , so we'll see , we'll let you do that , otis happy to be here .
