Marketing & Mayhem
Two gals talking marketing, life, and all the mayhem in between.
Marketing & Mayhem
Hamburger Hands, Snow & ChatGPT Roasts
Are you a fan of the slow burn? Our spicy book girls belong to two clubs - slow burn or straight to the heat - and how often does life mimic art? This December did. From getting acquainted with 2025 - to the building of Ikea furniture - we’re diving into the January, the push to purge and renovate. and ultimately, what does it mean when a black moth comes to visit you? Does everyone else look for symbolism in small every day moments? Is it a glimmer? Maybe there is something to this idea of “listen” as a word for our 2025 …
If you’re ever feeling like you’re “too much” - please remember that even TOAST was served on silver in the 1800s. Not us. We’re hand cleaning vacuums and committing to washable carpets - but we wouldn’t MIND a silver toast holder for our book collections. Team cheap rugs - for both of us, pet owners. Is everyone else replacing their rugs every 6-12 months? Or is this another mayhem hack?
Sounds like we’re already ready for summer - conversations about margaritas and peach daiquiris. And the time one of us sliced her knuckle wide open … what is it about family vacations and emergency room trips? Apparently what happens in vacation doesn’t stay on vacation. Speaking of weather, there’s speculation of snow here in the south and we’re excited. But we’re also unprepared - we’re headed to Costco and Amazon for prep! Cheers and Happy New Years Mayhem listeners!
Things we discussed:

happy new year's happy new year.
Speaker 1:Can you believe it? No, I can't it's a fast year it's been like a slow burn the past. Um, we talk about that in our little books. You and I had that text going the other day about the spicy books we're reading. Has it been a slow burn though? The past few weeks? I feel like it's gone really fast, but also I feel like it's been very slow, if that makes any sense at all.
Speaker 2:I feel like it's been very fast.
Speaker 1:I feel like Clark's been out of school for 17 weeks, but not in a bad way. Just feel like I have no, just like we. I was just saying I have no concept of like what day it is, what time.
Speaker 2:I, just I, there are no rules no, I know I keep seeing things about that. You know we all both have like nine, seven, ninety seven jobs. We've seen things like that on the internet. But then I have like I had to go downtown for like a meeting on Friday and I was like this is bizarre.
Speaker 1:I felt really bad for you Cause it was so nasty out and it was so cold and I was like the fact that you have to get dressed today. I really felt for you. That day I'd look pretty. I know, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:I was going to see the Food and Bev boys. I couldn't be like Gary Busey. No, I had to go, because then of course also you know where I was I was at Republic. Oh nice, oh yeah, that's right. Yep, yeah, and so they're open. So I also can't be gross because, like, cause it's like a hot spot.
Speaker 2:Yes, it's a hot spot and it's like the few days after Christmas, so like downtown was packed and so like I really had to like wear heels and like do the whole thing, yeah, and you dressed up again for me on Sunday. I ran into a lot of people downtown, though, did you? Yes, can I tell you I have this new favorite thing. Remember, I told you I'm starting a new hobby uh-huh well, the hobby is antique jewelry I saw your stuff.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I'm here for it. Did you get your ring, by the way?
Speaker 2:oh, my necklace. You mean necklace. I thought you were getting a ring. No, I was like, oh, I do have a ring at a jeweler right now, but it's not, it's a whole other story. I was like what? Yes, it's here. It just came here like two days ago from the Royal Mail because it's from the UK. So it came in like a stamp and like it has a whole. It's not the usps, that's for sure. But yeah, no, um, but so then I went to an antique store that of course you know it's like downtown charleston, so this is not the place you go antiquing, right, because everything's nine thousand dollars.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I want to go to like middle america, but one of the things that they had a ton of were these toast. They were like trays for your slices of toast. They were beautiful. I saw them Dunning. So now I first of all it was 785, that one that I loved, and I was like it's so beautiful. Of course it's like full silver and it's Charleston, so like whatever. But then I started doing some. I went down the rabbit hole which you tend to do.
Speaker 1:People are using them. So what do you do? You just like stack your sliced bread in it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but they're repurposing them, so they're like they have their mail in it. I thought it looked like a mail holder. A lot of book readers have them at the nightstand with their books and I was like, oh my God, this is so beautiful, right, aren't you just like-? I love that Hold up. And so then they also had these really like my dream thing there. They had this cute little like I don't know even what the word is almost like craft sets, but they were only like eight inches tall and they had like three to four different glass like crystal cut out, and I was like, oh my god, that would be so much fun for like all of your like oils and vinegars or whatever.
Speaker 1:So I love like an old bar, like an old bar cart.
Speaker 2:It's very like mad bar carts they had the silver things that hang over the bottles that say like gin or bourbon. So I was like, oh my god, this would be such a good place even to get like a gift for a wedding or like a groomsman, or like there were so many cool things like that I feel like everything was just so much fancier back then.
Speaker 1:I was talking about this with somebody the other day about relics in like China and things like that that our great grandparents, you know, tried to pass down, and how our generation doesn't really use that stuff.
Speaker 2:Well, I so. I think there's two reasons. First, my whole thing was and I posted this online but, like, if you ever feel like you're too much, remember that there was definitely a time where, like, they served you your sliced toast and of course that was like aristocratic, right, that wasn't everybody. But like you can't be too much, I just don't believe anymore. I also think that the reason that we are more minimalist because I feel like I'm going back a little that way is there was, have you do you remember growing up? People would have these houses where shit was everywhere.
Speaker 1:It was like Kirkland threw up in there.
Speaker 2:Yes, and it was like nonsense too. It's like the, it's like some of the whatever. It is like farmhouse shaker, like for like being a New Yorker. There was a lot of red and like mustard yellow, Totally Tons of red, tons of that green.
Speaker 1:Everything was very like. All the pillows had like the ruffle edges.
Speaker 2:Yes, Like there was and it wasn't everyone's house, but like there was quite a few houses where, like all the furniture was really dark, the kitchen was dark, Like the other day that was like this looks like a kitchen I got drunk in and my parents didn't know where I was. It was like a beautiful kitchen but like I mean, I had friends with like black plates and like it was just like you know, you had some friends that were like Todd and Margo, Yep, Everything was like over the top modern yep still have a friend like that.
Speaker 2:I'm always like, wow, what happened here? But it was like floral do you remember um yuck anyone's yum, because mine is yucky too. Believe me, I have so much wallpaper like I'm. I'm just saying like some of this stuff is cracks me up.
Speaker 1:What was that? Like fame, she was so popular. It was like these bedspreads in the eighties and nineties and, like I, everybody died for them. It was like Jessica. She made like clothing too. Do you know what I'm talking about? I'm going to have.
Speaker 2:This might be a Southern thing, but it was very like.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that was a thing, very floral, was that a?
Speaker 2:New York thing or not, I keep going back there. So I am changing the wall behind me because I can't take this anymore. I've given it a week. Which one? The massive wall that's obnoxious. That drives me crazy.
Speaker 1:Why it's boring. Okay, so what are we spicing it up with?
Speaker 2:You know it's going to be some wallpaper.
Speaker 1:Of course you should be like that should be your side hustle.
Speaker 2:I really wish people would let me decorate like pieces of their life, because I feel like I'm getting close to being ready to doing this for like specific people, but I feel like I got to play with it just like a tiny bit more. Oh, here's the screenshots. They're coming your way, um.
Speaker 1:I've already decided that. You know I want to do a closet renovation. I think I told you this. I'm going to let you wallpaper some of my closet.
Speaker 2:Yes, I think I think you told you this I'm going to let you wallpaper some of my closet. Yes, I think you told me, because I was going to organize your clothes.
Speaker 1:Dude, it is bad. It is very, very bad. I'm doing major purge sesh tomorrow. That's how I'm spending my New Year's Day. Okay, look at it.
Speaker 2:Look at your phone. Did you text me?
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm. Look at your phone. Did you text me? Mm-hmm, look at you. You are taking it back.
Speaker 2:I think I am going to do a retro wall, so it's like a little. I tried to find a wallpaper with the smallest, tiniest roses on it ever.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's pretty. I love those sconces.
Speaker 2:They're battery-powered, because I can't Shut up Because I can't hardwire anything, so I have to like fuss around with, like I have to be a little bit creative and love that mirror, I know. So let's hope that stuff comes in, because I also built two nightstands yesterday and then I unbuilt them because they were too small. So they're going back.
Speaker 1:Are you like this every January, like you want to do, like house projects, or is this like just a? What is this?
Speaker 2:No, because I couldn't do that stuff in my old house, Like I mean, I wanted to just do. I the most I could do is like paint, and even then it was like a big fuss and I never involved anyone in my projects. But like I do like to, like in my old, in my growing up house, like I always mess with stuff, Like in my old, in my growing up house, like I always messed with stuff. But like I feel like this is just borderline creative, mind, experimental, because I'm like well, I'm not staying here forever.
Speaker 2:It's fun, like I like playing with this. I feel like it would be fun to do it for other people, and then part of me is just like, why not? Like it's not, there's no commitment. I keep seeing this trend where people are like stop creating a house that looks like it's ready to be photographed and sold.
Speaker 2:Like this. There's like this whole other idea of like really living in your house, which I feel like we live in an area very much where everyone wants their home to look like. It's like staged, yes, and I am very much like and looks like an episode of hoarders. So I think there's something so like one of the things that I pulled out when I moved. My great grandmother is from Germany. Actually her she was 17 years younger than her husband. I know she's spicy.
Speaker 1:I didn't know. Your family was from Germany. That's interesting, you know my family's from Switzerland.
Speaker 2:Oh, I know, look at us. She was very like fancy and so she like had like a short little bob and like we have some really beautiful photos that were like kind of against the rules, you know, because it showed her neck and she was like. She was like stunning. She lived into a very old age, but I have a humidor it. So you know, when you go to my bathroom and there's that little thing that is like under my towel rack that has like books and stuff on it, yeah, it's a humidor for sure, I love a humidor right, it even still has the filter in it and everything.
Speaker 2:Does it still smell? No, it's because it's like almost like porcelain old school. So it had like the big filter that like hooked into the side and then the inside is like porcelain, so bath bombs in it and stuff, um, but that had been tucked away like in storage and so that was like one of the first things I brought out. I was like let's get a little sillier.
Speaker 1:A little fun, that's fun. Yeah, I am not like that. Like I feel like family has tried to give me certain items and I'm just like eh, I definitely feel that way.
Speaker 2:And then now I feel like it's a tiny bit of a shift To the girly stuff. Like when I bought all those pink wine glasses, I was like I wish I had more glassware. I do have some of the older glassware of some of my grandpa's and like I do have some silver and a couple of things like that, but I certainly don't use it as much as I should.
Speaker 1:But like when you got married, did you register for nice, china?
Speaker 2:No, I did not either, but they you know that used to be like a thing oh yeah, friends, I did and they were like what do I do with this? And I'm like I mean it would be hard here to like store all that.
Speaker 1:But I don't have anywhere to put it, that's what I keep always telling my parents. I'm like I will say that my grandmother, she collected to my grandfather. He was from Switzerland, he traveled a lot because he owned a textile company and so he traveled all over and he, so my grandmother, collected like these beautiful, like ornate teacups. Yeah, like you would be obsessed.
Speaker 2:So in my list of things that I really want for, like I mean, she had these like three.
Speaker 1:it was like three different like cabinets in our dining room growing up. There was all the teacups and saucers and they were stunning and I I obviously didn't think anything about it when I was younger but now I'm like, yeah, I love them.
Speaker 2:No, that's on my list of like things. Like, I really would like to take a trip out somewhere where we could actually like antique or whether it's just the flea market or something, but I need a few like teacups.
Speaker 1:I definitely need. I just got this image of us like in a Cadillac with, like those big Sunvisor hats. Yes, little old ladies going to antique For teacups.
Speaker 2:And Julie listening to gangster rap on our way. I want like an old school salt and pepper shaker.
Speaker 1:Hell yes, oh my god. Oh my god. It's new years today. You what it's new years it is.
Speaker 2:So you are hobbying like this, like so I'm also. You know I'm also mildly into the 70s. This is why I don't make sense as a person, but I like love the 70s. So, like, when I was picking out my bed, I was like I need something that's like a little bit velvet, but like I wanted to have like a scar face vibe, and my mom was like what are you saying? But that's exactly what I got and I loved it so much that my friend, amy Muay Thai, amy bought the same bed so we'll be like talking to each other and I'm like I forget we have the same bed. Like we'll be like sitting in bed and I'm like how is this possible? But like, and the same mattress too. That mattress mattress is fire. It is fire and she's like what mattress are we getting? I'm like now that we're here, but then I have that like cabinet that's under the TV that has.
Speaker 2:So I bought these nightstands. They're shorties and I really tried last night I was I actually was trying to channel my inner suite. I was like let's just like less, you know, like lower, but I was like I feel like I'm in the dollhouse. I'm a big person. I need like a lot of like. I don't know why. I just like everything oversized. I like everything my men, my couches, my beds. You're consistent. Yeah, this is like, and I'm always like I'm a big person, I need big things. You're not a big person, I need big things. But I like really like oversized everything. I couldn't wrap my head around it. So now I'm back to my old nightstands and I had to take all the screws and everything out of these freaking I know, so I can return them.
Speaker 1:I'm just really proud that you had the patience to do that.
Speaker 2:Well, I did do. I did get to the part where I went to go put the drawers in and they were something apart, was upside down. I sent Amy this. I was like, oh God, I've made a mistake. You can tell like the, the little part on the bottom here, it's like at the top, and I was like motherfucker. But actually all I needed to do is take these two sides and switch them so that everything was on them. I was, I literally walked and I was like, oh fuck this, like it's okay, though I got really far.
Speaker 1:I get like this in january too, like I, I think it's something after december and having more stuff in my house. I am like we need to do another renovation and I need to purge. We still have all of our Christmas stuff up. I know it's going to make your eye twitch, but we all have our Christmas stuff up.
Speaker 2:I'm a big purger. I have been purging since I said I was going to wait until the 28th. I promised myself December 28th. One o'clock on the 26th it hit like a wall and I was like this ain't happening, it's not happening. And I freaking waited for that moth to fly out and I was like is he? You've not seen him. No, so he must've gone out, cause you know I always keep that door open. He must have at some point left.
Speaker 2:But my, my, I have a friend there or sorry, cousin who listens to this, who like, literally like zoology. She's like the snow white, she's like I need to figure out. She's trying to figure out what this moth is. But I will say this I looked it up and on chat, gpt this was one of the first things that came up. Okay, because of course there's like an algorithm to that and it knows that I'm like a witch or something, so it says this. However, black moths are often associated with mystery, transformation and unseen realms. The black moth holds a profound spiritual symbolism. While interpretations can differ, the presence of a black moth is commonly seen as a messenger from the spiritual realm, inviting us to explore our shadow aspects, embrace change, transformation and tap into our intuitive wisdom. I was like damn, that was deep for a moth.
Speaker 1:It was huge. We can't figure out what it is.
Speaker 2:She's like it has to be one of these, but it's not one of those and we can't figure out what it is. I'm like it doesn't ever. She's like it has to be one of these, I'm like, but it's not one of those. I was like it's really triangle, it was very triangular. She's like, well, the wings weren't open. I was like, oh sorry, I was like I don't know. I don't know. I'm not like a moth person.
Speaker 2:That's a pretty interpretation, though that's a good one, and it was right when we were having Jennifer Siskon and we were talking about boundaries and I was like what an interesting moment.
Speaker 1:Have you settled on a word yet?
Speaker 2:No, have you.
Speaker 1:No, I keep getting new ones brought to me in my head, and so I'm I need to need to sit in them for a minute, but yeah, a new one keeps popping up. I had a couple pop up this morning so, yeah, I really have not settled.
Speaker 2:it's gonna take me. I feel like they're like you said the listen, like it takes me a long time to really figure out and I'm not. There's a big part of me like Christina texted me the other day and she was like and this is why the word was more and I was like I she had me cracking up about something. I know we need her back. We do. We should all ask her what she can do in January. You know what we were dying about. We were. We were back to laughing about that dang fish Cause I was driving over the Ravenel after I had seen you downtown. I was driving over the Ravenel and the song that I there was a song, oh, I saw the light. Yeah, that's a good one, not the way, not the winona one. I might be saying it wrong, hold on, it might not be. It's brand new man, sorry brand new man, I'm a brand new.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's a good one. That's not or? I was back singing on here.
Speaker 2:So that's the song that I put in that fish sequence because I kept singing it because I was joking around about like the boys on hinge holding the fish. So when I caught the fish and I was like all happy, I was like I saw the lemon baptized, like I just like thought it was like funny because I was like I'm a brand new man Now I know about the fish. There was a moment I couldn't stop for like 24 hours because you know how I get stuck in a loop. So we were like in the grocery store I'm in these like denim cutoffs with this like swimsuit basically, but it was like one of our like onesie little things like a tank top and I'm holding the grocery list not helping at all. Right, christina and I have left the house to take a break. She's like what's on the list and I'm just handing it to her Pass it to your princess.
Speaker 1:You're so good at it.
Speaker 2:And I'm still on my fish high and I'm just singing this song all over. I made like six friends.
Speaker 1:Of course you did.
Speaker 2:People were like we want to come with you guys and I'm like you can Get a case of beer, you can come. And she's just like oh, this is not of like koozies with the Maryland state flag on it in there, I'm just adding stuff. She is like putting it back, I'm adding it at some point. She's just letting me just like which, obviously I'm going to pitch in for the groceries, I actually, but I was zero help.
Speaker 1:It's like shopping with the girls.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was on my fish high but we were having a great time, cause that's how we like roll. I was just, she was pushing the cart having a great time, because that's how we roll. She was pushing the cart. She wouldn't even let me push the cart. I'm just walking around singing, picking out limes. I'm like let's make margaritas. She's like let's make what's on the list, tina, which I always make margaritas on that trip. This is the whole thing. The year before is the year that I sliced open my hand like an idiot is that like your drink that you make on family vacations is margaritas.
Speaker 2:That's like your claim to fame yeah, because it gets everyone like toasty I make peach daiquiris.
Speaker 1:that's why I'm asking oh, I want to have a peach daiquiri I make, like with, like turn in peach season with like fresh daiquiris, like fresh peaches, oh my my God, like fire so good I put three ingredients in my margaritas.
Speaker 2:This is the problem. You're always pushing tequila Well, you know it's good for you. And then I put in orange juice and lime juice and then you keep it simple. Orange juice Interesting, I don't do any of the nonsense. I learned this from a girl that was like that, married to a Colombian, and so that's how they the nonsense. I learned this from a girl that was like that, married to a Colombian, and so that's how they do it Orange juice and lime juice, and it's like so good and so fresh and it doesn't have any of that like sugar.
Speaker 1:That's the thing with mixers. I do not like that stuff.
Speaker 2:So she taught me how to do it with just orange juice and lime juice and tequila. We do a hot honey rim. I'm all about the hot honey rim. Do you salt it? Yeah, but the honey keeps it on and it's like so fun and so usually this is remember the year I like sliced my hand wide open on a can.
Speaker 2:It was like two years ago, same trip, I was making a salad for like lunch, like our big pasta salad with all these things, and I was like standing over the sink and I was thinking about how nice my uncle's can opener was. I just took like a mental vacation and cause it was a really nice can open, it was like a kitchen aid can opener Just freaking. You know, can opener suck they do, they all suck Piece of shit, right. So this one just like drifted around. I was like damn and I like, literally, this is a true story I took a break and I just like my hand went right over the perfectly cut edge that I just and I was like Ma, like everyone, like the main people were in the kitchen, right, my Christina, my brother Greg, my mom's in there and my mom's making hamburgers.
Speaker 2:And I'm like mom and she's like Rebecca, cause of course I've been up to shit all day. So my mom's like had it up to here and I'm like I just cut my hand. And my brother's like I bet it's better, we're going to have to get stitches, and that we're going to have to get stitches, and we're like joke, I'm like laughing because it is actually really bad and I'm panicking. And Christina's like oh my God. And so I'm like no, I really cut my hand and I'm being really calm, which is the opposite. I'm always chaotic, like I could spill a cup of coffee and lose my mind, but if there's a fire, I'm like all right, this is how it's going to. So she's like god damn it, rebecca, I've got hamburger hands stop hamburger hamburger hands, stop.
Speaker 2:She's like had it with me, right, and I was like, okay, but I like really cut my hand. And then Greg comes over. He's like holy shit. And she's like she's still on this train where she thinks that we're playing. And then Christina's like oh no. And then I started to get like because I've been drinking margaritas, I'm like it's okay. And then I'm like we'll get. I was like Devin's a nurse, let's have her. So my mom's like what are we doing? Stop, everyone, stitch it.
Speaker 1:So my mom's like what are we doing? Stop, everyone stop. And I'm like it gets to the point where I'd be like sit down, oh my gosh.
Speaker 2:My sister-in-law's like I'm not stitching that right now, like this is not. I'm like what are we doing? So Greg is like I'll stitch it. I'm like perfect. And my mom was like absolutely not. No, no, there's nothing. That says my brother, who also probably has ADHD. So his immediate response is like I'll do it and mine is like great, perfect.
Speaker 1:It was the most chaotic, my mom ended up Did you have to get stitches?
Speaker 2:I should. I definitely should have. It was a nightmare cut. My mom went to CVS to get a bunch of stuff Cause I said I wasn't going to leave and I really wasn't. I'm like the guy from Wolf of Wall Street. I'm like I'm not fucking leaving, I'm like in my swimsuit. So she on the way back, she's all like flustered. My uncle has this giant cement like giant, like three feet high, three feet around cement potting thing.
Speaker 1:She freaking jumped it with her forerunner. These family vacations sound very chaotic.
Speaker 2:I think it's stressful for my mom, but it actually went really well. I mean, half of the people didn't even realize that an accident had happened at the big house. Yeah Well, they were just out fishing. Nothing to see here. Mom takes the forerunner Jackson over my uncle Pete's garden. Then they're like looking at the damage on the forerunner. She's running upstairs.
Speaker 1:And I love that None of this is children, like it's the adults.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, I mean, there was a never mind the kids, no there is like always like kid drama, like somewhere between like the adults. It's. It's fun. Here. I feel like the kids stories wouldn't be. People would be like we need to call cps something like attention. It's like the mary Maryland house is so fun. It's like we're right on the water. There's like horseshoe crabs I love a horseshoe crab. I've never been to Maryland. Oh my gosh, it's so much fun. That was the same trip. So obviously my brother is a runner too.
Speaker 2:Where he was like making me wake up and run these trails at the Calvert Cliffs. So there's a lot of fossils in Maryland. It's kind of like here so you can find like shark's teeth and stuff. But it was like black fly season so we were getting eaten alive while we were running. At one point he had like ripped a branch off a tree and he was like hitting his back and like screaming and like this is the stuff that makes me laugh. I was almost going to pee my pants. It's so funny.
Speaker 2:But you run all the way out these like County trails out to the cliffs, so then you're by the water so there's no flies. So then we're like jacking around out there for 20 minutes Cause we don't want to have to run back through and I'm like we kept finding these and we were like these don't look like shark's teeth, but they kind of looked like shark's teeth. So're like this is amazing, like we're rich in these weird shark's teeth. So we get back and we look them up and they're like the pointy part of like the crab claw that's been flies. I was like we're stupid. I mean, we know what a shark suit this. But we were like these are weird, let's bring them with us.
Speaker 2:Like you thought you hit like the shark's teeth, like jackpot your fly territory is awful with handfuls of these like black crab claws. Oh my gosh, it's just a who. I feel like being an adult is funny if you can find the humor in it, oh yeah I mean I hated that you made me wake up early to run though.
Speaker 1:You all talk when you run.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the whole time. How do you run and talk? That's all I do. This is you can ask any running partner I have ever had in my life. This is why people would ask me to run with them. I just run my mouth the whole time.
Speaker 1:No, I don't know. If I could do that, I could listen. I'd be a great listener. I don't know if I could do that, I could listen, I would be a great listener.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I could talk. Actually, thinking back now, I do believe this is why it was everybody's favorite running partner. Never the fastest. I would be like their recovery run partner. I would just run like a true top tier yapper the whole fucking time. I can almost guarantee there's at least three people who are going to listen to this and be like that is exactly why I asked you to go running. You can talk when you're biking.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I can do that.
Speaker 2:But like cycling, yeah, and we would just like lean over and like talk, but running, yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1:Oh no, I'm like trying not to die. I hate running. It hurts my boobies and my knees.
Speaker 2:Not a fan yeah, I mean I actually can't wait to get back to it, but my running with my middle brother is one of my he's probably my favorite running partner that's a nice compliment no, you, it's like funny, we'll get into the weeds because we have a lot of respect for one another.
Speaker 2:Like well, I one time we had an argument about freaking school lunch like we'll like full-on argue. I'm like that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. He's like we, we will get into like a whole while you're running. Yeah, or he'll like teach me something, which, by the way, one of my brothers not that one, the other one is an avid listener and the goat pee story, the goat pee on the beard, is real. It's only the boys. This is how he knows. Because then I talked to him on FaceTime because he texts, and he was like that's true, we grew up in like upstate New York where there's a lot of farms, so we have friends that are farmers, like my brothers would go and help they still do. Sometimes.
Speaker 2:His best friend Dave, they were kids like eight or nine. He says they have goats on the farm. He goes yeah, man, they love it when you scratch their beard. So Dave made it. He was like all right, me and my brother, we're all animal lovers. Dave's penis pants, ben's scratching this goat's beard. He's like you can't get that piss smell off your hand or ever. So they're just boys being boys, right, but that's how he learned that goats yeah you're that's a trivial person and I love that.
Speaker 1:I said that you should. You would be so good at Trivial Pursuit and you're like I don't even know what that is. I really don't.
Speaker 2:I can probably draw you what the exterior of the box looks like, because I've seen it the little pie pieces. Oh God, I thought it was like an ornate looking box. No, we should play it, because I definitely don't think I've ever played it.
Speaker 1:I feel like you would kick my, like you would be so good at it.
Speaker 2:I feel like I don't know if I would, but I want to try it just for fun. You play a game with me? Yeah, I bought it. I told you I bought a deck of cards, I know. Have you done anything with them?
Speaker 1:No, I don't even know where they are right now. I saw you post something about a book.
Speaker 2:I just finished the Christmas. Uh, what is it A Christmas story? I'll look for it, but I just did it last night, so I have it ready for you. And then I'm going to, um, the one that you gave me with the purple color. Oh yeah, um, I keep singing a song whenever I look at it. Hold on, I keep singing a song whenever I look at it. Hold on, I do, cause it's on my thing by my TV. Oh yeah, so this is the one. The Christmas tree farm is the one that's coming to you.
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 2:I'm excited Me me. Right on the borderline is where I'm going to wait. This is the so every time I see it, cause it's like right on the wooden stand, I'm like meet me halfway. Isn't it pretty too? Yes, is this about a woman with?
Speaker 1:a baby. I did some research before I picked your Christmas books.
Speaker 1:Oh I love this, I love it, I had very like specific things I wanted them to be about. So I did a little Well, meet me halfway R& things I wanted to like them to be about. So I did a little um well, meet me halfway R and D. Okay, so I finished. What have I finished? I've done all of the the S the chestnut spring series. I've got this much more to do for reckless and I. This is such a sweet one. It's a lot sweeter than steamier, but I'm kind of digging it.
Speaker 2:I'm really into covers like that. I'm really into the fact that the authors are doing like three to four covers. The Ice Book that you Icebreaker that you and I and Kirsten talked about has a new cover. I took a picture of it at Barnes and Noble the other day. It's really pretty, but I was like, dang, we need to warn our listeners that the Icebreaker book is back with a brand new cover. Okay, we'll have to link that. Then I was like how many covers does this book need?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I feel like this Chestnut Springs here. You know, they've got the ones where it's like the woman and the man. They have the steamy set and you know I typically don't buy those because I feel like they're embarrassing to like. If you like, take it somewhere. I can't really, oh huh.
Speaker 2:It's like, instead of it being the one with the people, oh yeah, now it's back to. It's exactly the same one. I looked at it, picked it up and turned it over. It's got little. People complained, I don't know. Now it's even trickier to tell what it is.
Speaker 1:Um so I did. I just finished a not so meet cute, oh oh.
Speaker 2:I love that. That was early in my. Was that? Megan Quinn? Yes, I can forget a lot of books, but I I the fact that I even know the author to that, the Tessa Bailey, the Megan Quinn's a couple of those I'll never forget. But like that, one Dude Left an imprint.
Speaker 1:The spice, the spice in it, and I'm like I want this Rebecca, I want her to be taking a walk and then find a guy who needs to fake a fiance and get unloaded and buy her outfits and put her up and like all of these things. I'm like this is in the spice, dear gravy Less.
Speaker 2:I was unglued. That's like the spice. We have to look around the room and like make sure that no one's looking at you and you feel heat radiating off of your body. Oh, you're not even. There's no shame, you're just like what is this sauce?
Speaker 1:Yeah, and then, like somebody will interrupt you as you're reading, it's like what, wait, what?
Speaker 2:I'm going to start over. I go back two pages. I'm like ruining the whole thing. You're killing my vibe man. You're killing my vibe One of those ones where you're like, do you ever know it's coming and you're like I'm going to tap this page. I'm going to quick make everyone dinner and I'll see you soon. I'm going to get a glass of wine, Because if you mess this, next 25 minutes up.
Speaker 1:I'm going to be pissed. Yeah, so was the Christmas story good it was good, okay, good, okay.
Speaker 2:Spice level good, it was a um one, okay. So I have kind of like a general rule of thumb that once I hit 30, which you know on your kindle, um, I'd like to see some heat yeah like let's be real here, I'm not like a slow burn girl.
Speaker 2:I know love a slow burn, not me. I know why I'm here, I know why I came, I know why I'm here and I'm like this in my life. So just sorry, I'm just not a slow burn girl, like if I decide the wall's got to change, I'm going to give it 24 hours, then it's over. It's my like ADHD, like erotic behavior. But leave me a little manic. I actually told you I like better when they go full heat. Then like you don't get anything for a second.
Speaker 1:Like have you read this one, the reckless one? I'll have to look back. I don't think you have Cause. I wanted you to catch up with me in this series, but it's like that heat out the gay and then the slow burn. Isn't that like the, is it?
Speaker 2:the like that heat out the gay and then the slow burn. Isn't that like the? Is it the miles brothers where you get like catastrophic heat in the first like?
Speaker 1:yes.
Speaker 2:And you're like.
Speaker 1:Oh, I've read two of those. I'm about to read the third after I finish this one.
Speaker 2:And then they separate and then you're like waiting the whole time. I love that. This one's more like a slow burn, but the burns good Okay.
Speaker 1:It's good. Okay, it's good. Yeah, miles brothers next on my list um what did I tell you? It's like it's not, I'm on number three. It'll be casanova.
Speaker 2:Oh, I hate that title I can't remember which one that is, though. The very first one was the one that, just like, there are books stop over. I'll know that's the one where the heat's out of the game. Crush. If you just need to crush it, y'all, that's the one.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's a good one. So, yeah, so I have not hit my goal of how many books I wanted to read this year. Ooh, do you keep track? I do, yeah, mainly because I like to be able to offer recommendations. Yeah.
Speaker 2:TL Swan. So we should mention that that's TL Swan is another one. I love her books.
Speaker 1:Yes, she is fire too. The.
Speaker 2:Casanova, though, has 63,611, four and a half stars on Goodreads, so I think you're going to really enjoy it.
Speaker 1:I just hate the title. It's the Casanova thing that's throwing me. I don't know, it's Elliot.
Speaker 2:You're going to have fun.
Speaker 1:Okay, I'm excited, so that one's next. Um, yeah, lots of reading here lately. I don't know why.
Speaker 2:I just had to get myself into it for a second there, I think until I took down Christmas I couldn't like fully focus back to your like. Everything needs to be purged. I'm there. I very much like it.
Speaker 1:I got to a point where I was scrubbing my baseboards. You had me pin my pants. In that text message, Shane, when you were telling me all the things you were doing.
Speaker 2:Full episode, full manic episode. Just on my hands and knees scrubbing the baseboards. Yesterday I cleaned my entire vacuum I saw it in that picture Took it apart, scrubbed it, hand-washed the filter, then washed it in the washing machine. I was like the pee sisters are driving me nuts. Breton's UTI is definitely back.
Speaker 1:Oh God Pee.
Speaker 2:Palace again. So I figured out that they've been using my carpet on my back porch. What a bunch of assholes. And I appreciate it because it's not in here, but like no, so I had to roll up the take it out. I have a new carpet coming. It comes Friday. It's amazing. Um, so that is a washable carpet Like the other two in here. I'm I could not be a bigger advocate for washable carpets. Even if you don't have the P sisters, you need a washable carpet.
Speaker 1:For sure. So I buy cheap rugs and replace them about every six months.
Speaker 2:Same. The one in the living room really needs to be replaced right now, but I kind of need her UTI to stop. However, no one's actually been using it, so I might just go to Costco or Lowe's and find another one.
Speaker 1:That's where I get mine. Yeah, I'm at Costco. I buy their rugs and I just replace them every six months because I feel like they just get nasty and they stink.
Speaker 2:There's no, I'm not paying to clean that somehow. So my washable ones are the ones that are like in the bathroom or like in the hallways. I'm all about that life.
Speaker 1:So, yeah. So tomorrow's New Year's day, so I'm taking down all of the things. Are you doing that on New Year's day? Yeah, I am, because I am ready to take clean energy into 2025.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm a big. That's part of why I do it. I got like new eucalyptus. Sorry, this thing needs power. Oh, this is the carpet I got for the porch.
Speaker 1:Ooh, that's pretty and it's a little out there right, I love the green, don't you?
Speaker 2:The green, the blue? Well, we need patterns, because we got dog hair, yep, so you got to have a pattern. It can't be and it can't be too done, because that shows the dog hair worse.
Speaker 1:Yep, yeah, I'm gonna be doing some major purging tomorrow, um, which I'm excited about. Did you see they're calling for like snow next week?
Speaker 2:I did I thought so I follow this guy. Do you follow mike's weather page? Of course I do. Who doesn't? Okay, I don't know. So he said it last night and I was like, wait, is this a prank?
Speaker 1:Oh, my God, I am here for it. Do you really think we're going to get snow? I don't know, but I am really wanting to. I want us to have some Cause. You remember it did that that one year. It was literally the same week. Oh, was it when Summit was born?
Speaker 2:Well, she was born that October and we had to, like she was an infant, and we were flying back from New York right then, cause my mom used to have a big new year's day party before COVID. We would leave on the 26th, go home for all of that, and then we were coming back. We got stuck in Baltimore and we had to rent a minivan and drive through the snow and stuff. Oh my gosh. And she was a little little infant. I have pictures of her being a tiny little tater tot in the snow.
Speaker 2:I know I saved a bunch the other day.
Speaker 1:It was a serious snow. I've been in Charleston for a while. It snowed here when I was probably, I think, it was the year of Hugo or right after that winter, but it snowed here. I was down here visiting my dad, so it snowed. We had a really big snow then, and then that snow that we had in 20,. Was it 2018?
Speaker 2:Or not. It would have been yeah, january 2018.
Speaker 1:Okay, so that was the big. That was the the second big snow that I've seen in Charleston, and it was a big one.
Speaker 2:I think I need to get hats and gloves we don't really have.
Speaker 1:We haven't jacked up Me neither I had to like put. I remember Clark was like what she was, four, yeah, and I had her little feet wrapped in like plastic bags.
Speaker 2:Everyone did. A friend was just joking about this. He's like. All of our kids looked homeless because we didn't have anything.
Speaker 1:We were shoving their feet into Ziplocs and then into their regular shoes, yes so, but oh my God, it was like some of the best days we had as a family, because it was just cozy and everything.
Speaker 2:I feel like we need to go online and get some hats and gloves right now.
Speaker 1:I know we probably do Truly, so I'm like I'm super excited.
Speaker 2:I. So I'm like I'm super excited, I'm excited, I really. When I saw that, I was like is this for real? I haven't seen like rob fowler or anyone about it, but I saw mike talk about it, which usually means it's true yeah, usually.
Speaker 1:So I'm excited, I'm I'm looking, I'm hopeful that it will, because clark is dying to see some snow it's so funny because this always happens.
Speaker 2:Almost every year. Two things happen. School year starts the week of Labor Day. We have a hurricane Yep, they're out for a week Warm something Almost always Yep, they go back from Christmas break within a week, out for three days Yep. You know, what I really wish we would do is just call it a snow day and not an e-learning day, because I just can't. I'm like can we not just use a weather day? Let's use a weather day.
Speaker 1:I feel so bad. I'm very fortunate that our school does not do that, but we did do that when we were in another school and those e-learning are rough.
Speaker 2:I can't deal with it. It's awful Like. This is not for me. Let the kids be outside. What happened to like a good, old-fashioned snow day?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:No, my mom used to have a rule that if you couldn't see the back fence, then even if the so we grew up obviously in New York it would come across the bottom of the TV. Oh, it's the best, wasn't it so good, right, it was all the time Like especially this time of year, all the time, but like if they didn't call ours, cause it would get kind of like late. Like you start getting like you're like I really have to get ready, or like you have to call it like Caledonia first, or like Livingston County, or like all the ones way out there, and then they would like bring it in. I was like if you can't see the back fence, you don't need to worry about going. So we would be like in her room, like like you'd be, like I couldn't see for three whole seconds, so classic like they were so fun, though, like I feel like that was the best way to find out.
Speaker 1:I will never forget probably the best snow day I ever had was I was in high school and I would spend the night at a friend's Jamie Cruise and we got snowed in at her house for like days. We rode four wheelers and we ate snacks. We had all of our friends together. It was the most fun. Just hands down, it was just the most fun. But now these kids got it easy today. Now it's like social media. You don't have to stay glued to the tv.
Speaker 2:I'm like that's no fun wouldn't have even, but the all that stuff like. So there was this thing, it's called an ice storm. We had an ice storm in 1992 in new york and it was I'll find pictures, but like you couldn't go anywhere, for it had to have been at least like five days. I my recollection, because I was a kid right, I would have been nine like we'd all gotten big beanbags for christmas. We had to live in my living room. There's no power by my fireplace. Like it, my dad, like everyone, was trying to help everyone out, but the ice was so much that like all the power lines came down, oof, like there was no. Like putting it back together was so slow, like borderline, like a hurricane would have been here. Yeah, oh my God, like you. Just no one had generators. No, like you were, just it kept snowing. So like everyone's just trying to plow out what's coming now.
Speaker 1:It was the craziest silliest.
Speaker 2:Did you like snow being from new york or no? Um, I like it between the dates of december 22nd and january 5th. Maybe those are. That's my, that's your window. Yeah, like if it snows on christmas. I had a couple friends call me and be like it's a white christmas. We called christina and they had a white christmas and said kids they kept calling creepy.
Speaker 2:He was kind of creepy where they built the snowman in the backyard. It looked like he was kind of like a little bit far out so you're like in the dark you could see his white, but he was like looking in through the window and I was like he is kind of creepy the way you guys built him, you freaking jerks and they had built this like big, like snow igloo tunnel to like go in and out of and they had built like a big snow mountain so like that kind of stuff. Great um, snow is dirty though. There it is dirt, it's dirty. It brings shit all over your house, all over your car, they pile up in parking lots and it takes forever to melt and just like leaks, salt and disgustingness everywhere. I can't get excited about that. Yeah, I feel that putting my sister-in-law has to put three kids and all sorts of snow shit just to go and do some snowy thing like it is a nightmare just from a logistics standpoint.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, and then you get them in their clothes and then they have to go to the bathroom, always, always.
Speaker 2:And one person is always mad about the whole thing. You're like, I'm trying to do this for you. We had my elementary school was there's a giant hill behind that's where everyone went sledding. So, like everybody went, we all went there, and so, like you would just get there and everyone's dad would be there, right, the moms were all home and, like every, you'd be sledding with all of your friends. One year, one of my friends actually broke her leg. So we were kids and she, uh-huh, she broke her leg and my dad was the dad that carried her all the way up the sledding hill. My friend, nicole Peston, broke her leg and, like she, my dad carried her all the way up the sledding hill that sucks.
Speaker 1:We don't have any hills here in Charleston, so my dad does have one, so that's nice, we can go slide down his yeah, but yeah no, we don't have any hill. It was a bit it's a big hill.
Speaker 2:As an adult now I would like to re-see it so that I could understand.
Speaker 1:But like as a kid, I was like it's like that reel you sent me the other day with the dad pushing the kid yes, and he's like, oh shoot, we gotta go.
Speaker 2:Because he goes so far. He's like wait, where does that go? Because he takes the kind of a left. They're like panicking, that's the thing. You'd be there with all your dad. So you're kind of like uh, is anyone like making a judgment? Like you knew as a kid. You're like okay, and like like parts of it, people would build up like little ramps and stuff.
Speaker 1:Oh, talking about this really makes me want to stay. It would be so fun.
Speaker 2:So this will air next Thursday, so it would be potentially right in Cross, I know. So what do we have to do? We have to sleep with all of our pajamas and socks inside out.
Speaker 1:Yep, and then we dump ice in the toilet. Okay, check what else. There's something you got to put in the freezer, a pencil maybe.
Speaker 2:Let's ask Chachi BT All right.
Speaker 1:Find out for us so we can do all the things.
Speaker 2:So also um I this is a side note so I went. Your grandmother's funeral was recently, so sorry about all of that.
Speaker 1:Thank you.
Speaker 2:I used chat GPT when I was talking to Clark and I may have accidentally taught both of us that coffee bars eat their own poop. I think it might be important for you to know that you know I'm going to be honest with you.
Speaker 1:The fact that that's the only thing that you taught her I'm feeling pretty good about Okay we're good.
Speaker 2:So I like looked it up because I was like, oh, I thought they were Australian. She's like, no, they live in the rainforest. I was like really. So we look it up and it's like oh yeah. And she was like, but I think they eat pythons or something. I was like really A capybara, but I had seen it made sense that they like being wet, because we've both seen that video where they're like sitting in the tub. It's a belly, their big fat belly is like so proud. I'm like this animal is my spirit animal, this thing is. And they're like proud, yeah, so proud. So I was like, oh, that makes sense. So I was like, surely that animal doesn't eat a python. No, that can't be right. So I asked Judge T what it eats and it was like oh, it's an herbivore, like berries, nuts, but sometimes it will eat its own poop a second time for added nutrients. And I was like, oops, and so I've been meaning to tell you that that might have happened.
Speaker 1:So if that comes up, Then I'll know that it came from a man, becca. Okay, got it.
Speaker 2:From Angie BD. I could have never known and now our kids can read. Which is like so unfortunate, I mean it's amazing, it's amazing, oh God. Which is like so unfortunate, I mean it's amazing. It's amazing, unfortunate. Yes In some ways. I'm like we can't get away with crap, like Whitney used to tell her kids that the candy at the grocery store she was like does that look like your name? That's not your name, that's not for you.
Speaker 1:If you see your name here one day, then you can get your piece.
Speaker 2:Eventually they could, which was brilliant like but eventually they could read and they're like that's no one's name, like oh sorry oh, what else we have to do for some snow what are?
Speaker 1:thestitious yeah, that sounds right Superstitions.
Speaker 2:Okay, that sounds right. Right, you need to do to get snow it's got to be. You must have to say it a different way. Oh yeah, nope, wear your pajamas inside out.
Speaker 1:Got it.
Speaker 2:Put a spoon under your pillow.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Flush ice cubes down the toilet. There, you pajamas inside out. Got it? Put a spoon under your pillow. Okay, flush ice cubes down the toilet. There's, do a snow dance. Leave a white crayon on the windowsill.
Speaker 1:That's what it was. We put a white crayon on the freezer Wear socks to bed.
Speaker 2:Ugh, the worst. Eat snow inspired foods marshmallows, white chocolate, but I think it's like the top ones.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think. And then we did ice cream for dinner. That was one of the other ones.
Speaker 2:That's the snow inspired food. Yeah, I'm going to take pictures of this. The last thing I looked up on chat GPT was why do Christmas M&M's taste different than other M&M's Guys?
Speaker 1:Have you asked chat GPT to roast you? Yet I would kill to read yours.
Speaker 2:I did ask it to roast somebody, but I did not ask it to roast me.
Speaker 1:You should do yourself.
Speaker 2:It's really freaking funny do you just take a picture of yourself, or what?
Speaker 1:no, because what it does is it pulls off of what you ask it, so it roasts you like, based on your crazy mind. It is freaking hilarious well, so I did.
Speaker 2:I really did ask it why they taste different, and I was, and it's obviously they're made the same Color, psychology, context and environment. Because, nostalgia, there's a freshness bias, ah, with holiday M&Ms that they haven't been around that I agree with you I feel like they're creamier. It's something about it. They just hit different the red and the girls. And then I would that the easter m&ms are scary that I will crush an easter m&m girl talk dirty to me.
Speaker 1:I was at sam's the other day with my mom. They had them starburst jelly beans out. It took all I had not to buy a 12 pack of them eas Easter candy really is.
Speaker 2:We talked about this last year, but it is king. There is superior Something about it we had. There's apparently a freshness bias with M&Ms which makes. Well, you know, one of the things I asked chat GPD was when you and I were talking about why we look so ugly at target checkout, and it told me will you please roast yourself and then text it to me, because I'll text you mine right say like roast my no, just say roast me, you're gonna die, you're no.
Speaker 1:And then you can keep saying give me more, give me more. Well, that sounded kind of dirty, but yeah, like you can keep saying it, it'll keep going. Everybody y'all should do that.
Speaker 2:Have just said one thing. What did it say? Oh, you want to roast. Bold of you to assume I need to try. You're like a software update always around, never asked for, somehow still slow no, that's like paragraphs.
Speaker 1:That's what it did when I asked somebody else. Like I need to know who you asked it to roast, I'm going to need you to text me that.
Speaker 2:Wait, let's say it roasts me on my chat. Gpt algorithm, right.
Speaker 1:I don't think I said that. Let me see what I said.
Speaker 2:I asked it about the bills. And then I asked it a question about the bills the other day about the MVP, and then my Alexa was like hey, becca, do you like the Buffalo Bills? I was like yes, and it was like I will add it to your sports books.
Speaker 1:How nice it was, roast me Mine's like. I would have to text you this definitely.
Speaker 2:I use it like six times a day, so I do not understand why it didn't give me a bigger row, so I'll ask it again oh, mine's like paragraphs.
Speaker 1:Everybody, you should do this. It is very funny and it will make you laugh like. We won't even like say who it's from, like, but I love a chat, gpt like oh, I had to use it like if you look at mine, it's like stuff for clark school recipes, like, oh, it's great it's my new I.
Speaker 2:I bought a um Publix the other day, so sometimes Publix will do the rip standing rib roast on sale Probably doing it today, cause they do it a lot around Christmas, labor day and then again on new year's and they don't do it. But they'll do the standing rib roast for like $5 a pound instead of like 15 to 18. So I got like a four rib one for $37 the other day when I was with the girls because they love steak, and then I got home and I was like what is the plan?
Speaker 1:Now that I have the meat, where do we go from here?
Speaker 2:Bad GBT. How do I cook a standing rib roast? And I was like it's four pounds. I don't have a grill. I do have an oven or a stove and it was like you we will. It was like this is actually relatively easy, you're in good hands. I do like how it adds like a little bit of flair.
Speaker 1:It added to and I love that. It like makes you feel good.
Speaker 2:It's like hey, girl, you got this it told, told me I don't even have a meat thermometer. So it told me and I said I don't have a meat thermometer and it told me the exact time and I just went with it I love this for you and I love chat gpt.
Speaker 1:He was like this is nice sports through the google nonsense, because I feel like google has gotten too much. It's just too much.
Speaker 2:I don't know why I feel this way, but I feel half of Google is either a lie or an ad or an opinion. Right, exactly, an opinion, exactly.

Speaker 1:You didn't have to read five scrolls worth of why this recipe for standing rib roast is important to that person.
Speaker 2:Can we talk about that? I know, dude, it is a trigger for me the blogger life Because you have to scroll all the way to the bottom and you have to get past all the ads that paid for that blogger and then you get to this piece.

Speaker 1:Honestly, it'll make me exit out of a website quicker than that.
Speaker 2:A lot of times I'll ask ChatGPT for just like ingredients when I'm in the grocery store, like you know how, sometimes you see something and you're like I should use that. Like those are never around. Yeah, god bless ChatGPT.
Speaker 1:God bless you. Recipes, homework help and all oh yeah.
Speaker 2:So we're going to be fingers crossing for snow Pajamas inside out, spoon under the pillow, white crayon on the windowsill, ice down the toilet eating snow-inspired foods. I'm so excited, the Pea.
