This That And The Other
This That And The Other
33. Holiday Spirit Debate, Furniture Rearrangements, Election Night Humor, 3D Homes, and Cash
Ever wonder if putting up the Christmas tree right after Halloween makes you an overachiever or just really into the holiday spirit? We kick off a merry debate about the timing of tree decorations and whether Coco, our high-flying chihuahua, will approve of any changes to her beloved love seat. As we gear up for the Florida vs. Georgia showdown, we share our longing for fireside family gatherings and the trials of rearranging furniture to accommodate our festive plans.
Balancing home projects with personal priorities, we ponder the perfect season for indoor renovations and the dream of a dedicated podcasting room. Join us as we embrace the nostalgia of Halloween, reminiscing about trick-or-treating adventures and indulging in Sonic's 50-cent corn dogs. Reflecting on how our routines have evolved over time, we consider how life stages shape our current lifestyle choices and seasonal activities.
What if the future of money meant living in a 3D printed home? We explore the potential phasing out of the $100 bill in favor of digital currencies and the innovative world of 3D printed houses by companies like Icon. Amidst the humor and banter of election night antics and college football confusion, we acknowledge the changes brought by daylight saving time and transition into the holiday season, embracing the festivities with open arms.

Speaker 2:Anyway, it's Christmas time.

Speaker 2:Welcome back to this, that and other. I'm your host, Jody, and she is.
Speaker 1:The better. Host Amanda, it's Christmas time.
Speaker 2:And we're back on schedule, are we? Yeah, it's going to be two in a row, two Mondays in a row, is that?
Speaker 1:right, you better not say that Just chill out a minute, wait till we get it out there.
Speaker 2:Did we release it on the right day last week? I can't even remember.
Speaker 1:I don't know, maybe.
Speaker 2:I don't know. We're sitting here at Freedom Square, otherwise known as the Pergola. We're sitting backwards, yeah, we're sitting backwards. We're sitting at the fire pit. Got a fire going and we usually have a TV sitting on our little wall right here watching football, watching Florida and Georgia right now Really good game, by the way. I've had to flip everything around because there's a little bit of a wind and it was blowing right into where we'd be sitting at, so I've had to move the TV to the other side, move the chairs, move the equipment to the other side of the fire, and here we are, voila.
Speaker 1:Voila, here we are Watching Florida and Georgia.
Speaker 2:Yes, for the second time, everybody heard us.
Speaker 1:Oh.
Speaker 2:You were on your phone, I know, but so when you're on your phone, you're not paying attention to anything.
Speaker 1:I got a text from my girls. I told them that I was out at the fire pit and I wish we lived closer and we could sit out by the fire pit and have drinks. And then one of them texts back Drinks yeah, me too, and yeah, my drink.
Speaker 2:You made it sound like alcoholic beverages.
Speaker 1:Well, it don't have to be alcoholic Well no, it's not going to be. Drinks is my green apple water, yeah. And she texts back come, move to Texas and we'll get a compound and all live together. I said that sounds like a great idea.
Speaker 2:Knock it out.
Speaker 1:Bye.
Speaker 2:Bye.
Speaker 1:See ya. So yeah, we're going to put our Christmas tree up.
Speaker 2:No, we're not.
Speaker 1:We are. We're not going to decorate it, I just want it up.
Speaker 2:It is way too early.
Speaker 1:It's not Today we always fuss that we don't want to take it down.
Speaker 2:Today is November 2nd.
Speaker 1:Well, it's okay, we'll do it on November 3rd. Just get it out for me, or I'll get it out and you're going to come home from work one day and it's going to be up.
Speaker 2:No, it will not.
Speaker 1:Well, that's right, because you're always home before I am.
Speaker 2:No, I'm saying it's in a big box. Even if I drag that big box in the house there's no way you can put that tree together.
Speaker 1:I've put it together before. I don't think you have.
Speaker 2:I did because you would never put it together one time. I don't believe that either.
Speaker 1:Because you never do it when I want it, so you got to do it when I want it If you don't you pick bad time.
Speaker 2:It's like you plan this, you wait till I get in right in the heat of battle with some project, and then it's like, hey, I need you to put the tree up and I'm like, no, not right now because I'm doing something.
Speaker 1:Yes, right now you just gotta do it.
Speaker 2:When I gotta do it it doesn't work that way well, we're doing it I don't mind, I want to get rid of a couch I don't mind putting the tree up, it's the ornaments that kill me.
Speaker 1:We're not putting those on right now. We might not even do ornaments this year. I'm kind of talking myself out of it.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying that's. What kills me is the ornaments. Why you don't like to put the ornaments? We've got too many ornaments.
Speaker 1:I love a tree with full ornaments. We don't even put them all on there.
Speaker 2:There's not enough limbs on the tree.
Speaker 1:There is y'all, just don't do it we would have to hang at least two ornaments per limb, if not three, on the nine foot tree, or we got a 10 foot. I have no idea.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I can't remember I have to get a small ladder and get on the top step to reach the top, so whatever might be 10 when we used to get a a real tree, real tree I remember before it's well, one of them touched the ceiling yeah, one time and that was probably.
Speaker 1:Well, it's a that might have been a 12th. No, it got the high beam, so it's probably.
Speaker 2:No, this was probably about 11 foot, where it was touching 10 and a half to 11 foot right at one part.
Speaker 1:We put it in the A-frame.
Speaker 2:Yeah, because we had to.
Speaker 1:But now we're going to get rid of a couch, because we have a couch and a love seat in our living room and we don't use that's the love seat that's over there and we don't use that. So I just want to get rid of it. So we're going to get rid of it.
Speaker 2:The dogs like it.
Speaker 1:The dogs are going to be very upset.
Speaker 2:Especially Coco.
Speaker 1:But she's got two other beds over there. She's got three beds in the living room, One bed in the back. In our bedroom she's got a bed.
Speaker 2:But she's like one fluid motion. She takes a run and start and like jumps, like puts one paw on the this is a little chihuahua. Yeah, on the seat part of the couch. Then the next foot goes on the armrest, then that next thing you know, she's up on the very top of the couch and she runs across it and then she knows where the curtain, where the split's at.
Speaker 1:Makes me so ill, because my curtains stay dirty, because the dogs get in the curtains.
Speaker 2:And there'll be a wet mark and it gets dirty and there's a brown mark. Yeah, well, no, I'm talking about on the glass. Oh, yeah, on the glass, yeah From where she shoves her head up against the glass to look outside.
Speaker 1:She's got to get squirrels.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:She thinks she does so. So we'll get rid of that, and then we'll have one big old open area. Well, I want a chair Like a rocking chair. I think, Well, you've got one rocker. I think I want a rocker. I seen one on TikTok.
Speaker 2:I was just wondering if you were going to talk into the mic or keep getting further and further away.
Speaker 1:I knew that's what you were looking at.
Speaker 2:Well, I'm still in the middle of trying to make one room into a podcasting room, I know, and I need your help because I've got to get the lighting right now.
Speaker 1:But what did I tell you? I wasn't helping in that room until you fixed my bedroom. And you ain't even fixed my bedroom.
Speaker 2:It's priorities. It's all about priorities. Podcast room is a very important priority right now.
Speaker 1:I've been asking for the bedroom for years.
Speaker 2:What about it? To paint it.
Speaker 1:I want to, yeah, redo it. I want to redo the wall.
Speaker 2:That sounds like a spring project. It's getting too cold now.
Speaker 1:Well, not um what's the word? Oh?
Speaker 2:We fall back tonight, by the way.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Clocks. Oh my gosh what are you trying to say?
Speaker 1:Not. According to a guy at our church, in the wintertime is when you paint, so you're inside and stuff.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, but who's listening to him?
Speaker 1:I do, why Sometimes?
Speaker 2:You should listen to me.
Speaker 1:But why Nothing? I want to do.
Speaker 2:Well, yeah, I mean, but you can look at it this way too In the summertime you don't want to do outside projects because it's too hot. You do inside projects. So I mean, you can look at it either way. You just pick the best time, the best day, and don't start it on a Saturday. You actually start the project on a Friday evening. You like get everything prepared Friday.
Speaker 1:So Saturday bam, you can start. We're both off by 1 o'clock on Fridays.
Speaker 2:Usually.
Speaker 1:Most of the time yeah, I mean, I am, I am off. What was that?
Speaker 2:That was a bird. Go ahead.
Speaker 1:I'm off by 1 o'clock all the time on Fridays. I'm off at 11. So.
Speaker 2:Well, it must be nice.
Speaker 1:It is nice. I love my Fridays. I need y'all to stay out and work longer so I can have a day by myself, I so we're gonna put the tree up tomorrow. Anyway, what have?
Speaker 2:we done this week, so we're going to put the tree up tomorrow. Anyway, what have we done this week? How many Halloweeners did we have?
Speaker 1:Zero.
Speaker 2:Does everybody out there that listens? Do they have a bunch of people come to their house wanting candy? Do you think I don't know? Do you think that there's a lot of people out there that say, no, we don't have any trick-or-treaters? Do you think it's 50-50? Or do you think it's like 75%? 80% of people say yeah, we get a lot of trick-or-treaters.
Speaker 1:I say, 75% get trick-or-treaters.
Speaker 2:You think?
Speaker 1:so yeah so do.
Speaker 2:75% of people live in subdivision type areas, because that's what it'd have to be. There's a lot of people live on main roads.
Speaker 1:Well, that's true. And they're not getting any trick-or-treaters Some people just go trick-or-treat who they know they might have a house here, and then they might have a house 10 minutes away, right.
Speaker 2:I think it'd be neat, though, if you had kind of like that.
Speaker 1:These things don't quit falling on me.
Speaker 2:Leaf yeah it's skirming. In the neighborhood, kind of like a block party.
Speaker 1:I guess you'd call it yeah, like we used to do with Nicholas and your friend, didn't we do that? A year or two in that subdivision he lived in yeah, and then it seems like we've always had friends when Nicholas was little lived in subdivisions and we would go there. Yeah, that one and a ton of candy yeah, our nieces, wasn't that right? We didn't ever go with them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they rode in the back of the truck one time or a few times yeah.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, because we would go to Sonic and always get 50 cent corn dogs.
Speaker 2:Yeah, do they still do that.
Speaker 1:Yes, because I got a text. And if we hadn't just had corn?
Speaker 2:dogs. I probably would have got us corn dogs that night. I forget about that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, have got his corn dogs that night. I forget about that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, 50 cent corn dogs on halloween from sonic yeah, keep that in mind, put that on your calendar for next halloween. I'll never remember.
Speaker 1:I'd remember if we, if we did the trick-or-treating thing oh yeah, before somebody's younger was involved with that, yeah we'd always remember to do that. But so now nicholas just goes to a couple's house that lives in a subdivision and they give out candy. Our youth does.
Speaker 2:Because they have a bunch of trick-or-treaters.
Speaker 1:But how long can he do that? I don't think he's in youth anymore.
Speaker 2:But we've had no rain for like a month yeah.
Speaker 1:No rain.
Speaker 2:And then Halloween evening, it decides pour down and keep raining.
Speaker 1:I just seen pictures of of poor little kids that were drenched in parents that were drenched. They got in a little bit of trick or treat before it came yeah.
Speaker 2:I kind of miss doing that.
Speaker 1:I do, but then again I don't. I do, but I don't.
Speaker 2:I remember it used to be because it was a hassle, because we had jobs to where we'd get off at like 5. Like with me, I didn't know when I'd get off work.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So you're just trying to hustle to get done, yep, to do all that, and now that I'm not in a hurry, I can get home at any time and ain't going.
Speaker 1:And we don't do none of it.
Speaker 2:Different season of life I like it, but I don't like it and that's the thing about halloween too, is you don't know if it's going to be 90 degrees outside or 40, 50 degrees, because we've had it both.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we have had it both. Anyway, what's tuesday?
Speaker 2:Let's talk politics. You want to talk politics?
Speaker 1:I just asked you what Tuesday, but no, we're not going into politics.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we are, I think we should? No, we're not, we're not going to get that stirred up.
Speaker 1:It's a political commercial, that just came on right now, I know, and I just asked you what is Tuesday?
Speaker 2:It's the day we vote, okay, is that what you're looking for? Yes, I'm not voting, so who are you voting for? I'm not voting, you are.
Speaker 1:I'm writing in Bob Ross.
Speaker 2:Yes, no, don't do that. Well, I am.
Speaker 1:I'm writing in Bob Ross, who's with me.
Speaker 2:But do you know that when you do something like that? No, I'm just saying if you write in something just being silly, that's like to me. I'm just saying if you write in something just being silly, that's like to me, I consider that a slap in the face to everybody that's lost their life fighting for this country. You know what I'm saying? Wow, you're just going. I'm joking around. I'm not talking about you, because I know you're just funning. But if you're just going up there just to be, you know doing that, no, I'd just rather you not even vote.
Speaker 1:I won't vote then. No, you're voting.
Speaker 2:I'm not voting. Yes, you are. You always vote. Who you voting for?
Speaker 1:Whoever you tell me to.
Speaker 2:No, you got your own mind, you make your own decision. No, I don't. You know what's going on.
Speaker 1:I vote for who you tell me to Don't lie to the people.
Speaker 2:No, no, no. Whoever Jody tells me to vote for, I'll tell you like I'll ask you, like they're saying, are you better off now than you were four years ago?
Speaker 1:I'm good. How are you, don't?
Speaker 2:ask Are you spending more money on groceries? I'm not talking about this.
Speaker 1:Don't get me started on groceries. Yeah, are you spending more money on groceries? Don't get me started on groceries.
Speaker 2:Four bags of groceries. How much money you got in those four bags now?
Speaker 1:Over a hundred dollars, seems like, doesn't it? All right, we're off to politics.
Speaker 2:Why do you want to get off politics? I?
Speaker 1:don't like politics.
Speaker 2:You only got a few days left.
Speaker 1:You go on your other show and do your politics.
Speaker 2:Another podcast. Well, I don't want to talk about it either.
Speaker 1:Well, good, because I don't want to hear about it. I get enough of it.
Speaker 2:Either because I don't want to hear about it.
Speaker 1:I get enough of it. Either way. I already told you last week that we should podcast on the night of the election and you told me no, because you might say cuss words.
Speaker 2:I did say that.
Speaker 1:I know, I think we should.
Speaker 2:I've got to concentrate.
Speaker 1:I think we should do TikTok Live and we should do play-by play of what they say on CNN.
Speaker 2:You say you said a bad word. You think we're going to watch CNN. I'll flip over there just to see what they say. See if they start having a meltdown when they see Trump start winning. Trump, trump, trump.
Speaker 1:Trump, trump Trump.
Speaker 2:Trump. Trump.
Speaker 1:Anyway, there go our viewers no.
Speaker 2:Look whether your person wins or loses on Tuesday. Life goes on Wednesday. Life goes on, we don't gripe about it, that's right, you know you might gripe about it and gripe about prices or whatever, but everybody's always going to gripe Life goes on. Yeah, get some good sleep anyway.
Speaker 1:Life goes on. Yeah, get some good sleep. Anyway, life goes on.
Speaker 2:Give me a drink of my Pepsi.
Speaker 1:Quit drinking your Pepsi.
Speaker 2:You want to talk about the $100 bill.
Speaker 1:What about the $100 bill?
Speaker 2:Did you know? And then I lost my. Where'd it go?
Speaker 1:Juddy likes to just look up random facts.
Speaker 2:I like seeing stuff On what. Where'd it go, juddy?
Speaker 1:likes to just look up random facts I like seeing stuff On what On the internet.
Speaker 2:Well, farewell to America's most common banknote after decades. Farewell what do you think we're talking about? I never have a $100 bill. Despite the $100 bill being the most circulated cash component, the paper money is set to undergo a makeover. Did you know that? No, as the world increasingly shifts towards digital payment systems, the future of physical currency is coming under increased scrutiny. Would you believe that? No? Do you use cash?
Speaker 1:Do I use?
Speaker 2:cash.
Speaker 1:I think you know the answer to that one.
Speaker 2:Recent discussions suggest that the iconic bill could be discontinued, driven by the rise of digital currencies and changing consumer behavior. However, however, the $100 bill is here to stay for now, but some new changes on the way. So see, they make you think that it's going away, but it's not. So they are basically going to say they're redesigning it and it's expected to enter circulation between 2034 and 2038 the new circulated bills. So we still got like 10 years.
Speaker 1:Why are they doing?
Speaker 2:it Increasing counterfeit issues, things like that. 2013 was the last time that they've reissued the $100 bill, but then they're still talking about doing away with it, which would be crazy.
Speaker 1:Do you carry cash?
Speaker 2:Cash is king. Yeah, I do.
Speaker 1:I never had cash. Why would I?
Speaker 2:not. I've always carried cash. I know I keep cash, not that I always use my cash, but I've got it Right. I guess I never have cash. Why would I not? I've always carried cash.
Speaker 1:I know I keep cash, Not that I always use my cash, but I've got it Right because you got it.
Speaker 2:Because you just don't know.
Speaker 1:I never carry cash.
Speaker 2:But why not?
Speaker 1:Because I never have it.
Speaker 2:Why don't you have cash? Don't you think you need to carry cash?
Speaker 1:I got a dollar in my car. I carry cash I got a dollar in my car. I think that's about all I got.
Speaker 2:Alright If the grid goes down.
Speaker 1:Here we go. Bye, bye, grid, the grid's going down.
Speaker 2:Right, and now you can't use your digital currency anymore and cash needs to be king now, or it will be king because you can't do anything else. Those that have cash Well, at some point, but that's. Those that have cash, well, at some point, but that's what I have you for, yeah Well, at some point the dollar will be worth anything.
Speaker 1:Right exactly, so why worry about it?
Speaker 2:What about 3D printed houses?
Speaker 1:How does the 3D stuff work? That's pretty cool.
Speaker 2:Have you heard of the 3D printed houses? Can you believe that they're doing that?
Speaker 1:They can't do that, have you seen how.
Speaker 2:But you've seen how they make just 3D prints of stuff, just whatever models.
Speaker 1:I've seen stuff made from the 3D printer.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:But I've never seen it in action. Is that what you mean?
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:People are buying and living in these futuristic homes, with dozens sold at a community in Texas and more widespread adoption expected in five years. Well, there we go.
Speaker 1:We can move next to Kristen and have a 3D home.
Speaker 2:There you go, we can do that. It's no wonder that 3D printed homes seem more like science fiction than real estate fact.
Speaker 1:Icon. I think that's how they do movies now.
Speaker 2:What 3D 3D stuff. Printing. Yeah, what do you mean?
Speaker 1:That's how they make houses and stuff.
Speaker 2:Probably not.
Speaker 1:Cost too much.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they use cheap, cheap stuff. Yeah, let's see Icon. That's the company I-C-O-N, if you look it up. That's what I was looking up and seeing what it was all about. One of the best known companies in the space is working with NASA on housing and infrastructure for the moon and Mars. So not only are they building real estate here, but they're working with NASA on futuristic homes or buildings on the moon and Mars. Can you believe that?
Speaker 1:No, what about that one? You like? I can't believe you didn't say it. Just I have a chance to say it.
Speaker 2:Oh, Uranus.
Speaker 1:I knew it.
Speaker 2:Have you seen pictures of Uranus?
Speaker 1:Yeah, there comes, the little boy.
Speaker 2:Do you know how big Uranus is?
Speaker 1:Really you just called my.
Speaker 2:What are you talking about? We're talking about planets, uh-huh. What are you talking about?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:All right. So these houses, rounded, dome-like test structures produced in Austin Texas. They resemble places like Luke Skywalker used to call home. Do you remember in Luke Skywalker the home he lived in? It had a rounded top.
Speaker 2:Maybe, that's what they're talking about, but Icon is also working with Linner to produce single-family homes at Wolf Ranch, a housing development about 30 miles north of Austin where the tech company is based. The company's chief operating officer, which I can't pronounce his name, told Real Estate News this summer that he thinks people will start to see 3D printed communities popping up in their town in the next five years. Wolf Ranch isn't Icon's only residential project, but it's the furthest along the last of the 100 homes at Wolf Ranch are now being built, or rather printed in what the company describes as the world's largest 3D printed community. Do you want to know how 3D printing home works?
Speaker 1:Sure.
Speaker 2:All right, at the heart of Icons. You don't want to hear this. This is interesting. Well, let me mute your mic.
Speaker 1:Go ahead.
Speaker 2:At the heart of Icons operation is a massive 3D printer. You've seen the 3D printers right.
Speaker 1:Maybe I don't guess.
Speaker 2:Okay, well, I've seen this and this is huge. It also described by the company as the world's largest. The five-ton behemoth squeezes out a proprietary mix that includes concrete powder, water and other additives, layer by layer, on a carefully programmed path. The result is walls that have a stony, corduroy-like texture, which is futuristic and unusual. The material isn't smooth to the touch, but smooth to experience All rounded corners and wavy walls, but smooth to experience, all rounded corners and wavy walls. It can be covered by wood or drywall for those who prefer something more familiar. What about that?
Speaker 1:I just think it's weird. How can they print something so big?
Speaker 2:3D printed homes versus traditional building. So do people want 3D printed homes? People are buying them, watson said I think that's how you say his name as of mid-October, nearly 30 of the homes in the Wolf Ranch development have been sold, with another 15 or so.
Speaker 1:Oh no, florida just scored, did they yeah?
Speaker 2:With another 15 or so for sale and dozens more going on sale soon. The homes are priced from $395,000 to $595,000, which this is Austin, Texas, so it's going to be a little bit higher anyway and there are eight floor plans available, ranging from 1,574 square feet to 2,112 square feet, with three or four bedrooms. There is demand for these homes. He says we can deliver a beautiful and high-performing home and it has less maintenance and incredible features like modern designs with emphasis on natural light and connection to the outdoors. Mm-hmm, how about that?
Speaker 1:How about that?
Speaker 2:Let's see. Let me find the other thing that I read 3D homes can be cheaper than traditionally built homes. Oh really Icon has produced several for Community First Village, which provides housing to people coming out of homelessness. It has also challenged architects around the world to come up with plans for resilient, dignified, environmentally friendly 3D printed homes that cost $99,000 or less printed homes that cost $99,000 or less.
Speaker 1:So how big is that? Did you tell me? Yeah, I did tell you, and I wasn't listening.
Speaker 2:A single family home. It ranges the ones that range from $395,000 to $595,000,. They range from 1,574 square feet to 2,112.
Speaker 1:I don't know how big that is. I need bedroom size.
Speaker 2:And that's three to 2,112. I don't know how big that is. I need bedroom size, and that's three to four bedrooms. Okay, it's not big. I mean it's not small, but it's not big.
Speaker 1:Three to four bedrooms is big to me.
Speaker 2:Well, if you got four bedrooms, you ain't got a whole lot more in that house if it's 1,500 square foot. But yeah, I think with these it's just the way, the architecturally how it's done with the roundness and really no corners and stuff like that. That's what you're paying for, but I think, when it comes down to it.
Speaker 1:How do you put your kid in a corner if you don't got a corner you?
Speaker 2:don't you just have them keep walking until they find it? And they never find it. But it said in there too that it's cheaper because it'll gradually get cheaper. Plus, because of your labor, you won't have as many people working for you. So there you go, between that and AI taking over there goes all of our jobs, there it goes. So how about that? How about that? All right, what do?
Speaker 1:you got? I got this cute little shirt I just found. It says Turkey Ham. Make America Thankful Again. It's for Thanksgiving. It's cute. Sorry, I wasn't paying attention to you when you were reading that. I was letting you have your moment.
Speaker 2:Well, it figures Well. I need you to listen in case you can stop me and you can ask questions along the way.
Speaker 1:I did listen and the only question you asked was how big it was, and then I'd already mentioned that. I just can't imagine something 3D and I'm living in it.
Speaker 2:PrintedD and I'm living in it, printed, and I'm living in it. Well, if you see the 3D printer that I'm talking about, if you see the pictures of it, you'll be like this ain't real. There's no way. This is real.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:But it is.
Speaker 1:Florida and Georgia are tied.
Speaker 2:It's basically like if you had a concrete truck, mm-hmm, and you know the thing they've got in the back that the concrete comes out of. Yes, it's like a little ramp thing. They point in certain directions. Yes, it's almost like that. Their mixture, the component, they've got it, just they keep feeding into it and it just keeps building walls and stuff. It's hard for me to explain. You'd have to watch the video and so.
Speaker 1:On these walls can you hang pictures and stuff yes, though everything. It's sturdy. It's going to withstand the tornado.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and it's in there too. They haven't run into any issues with rules and regulations on how you build these, because you have to have permits and all that. But yeah, if you'd have listened, you'd have heard me say that you can put drywall on the wall and stuff like that. So, yes, you can do normal stuff. I heard that.
Speaker 1:So if you did that, would you do all your furniture 3D printing too?
Speaker 2:Can you do 3D printing?
Speaker 1:Would you?
Speaker 2:Would I If I wanted, like a concrete chair, I guess, or a plastic chair, I guess. So no, I wouldn't.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:That's going a little bit far, is it? Yeah, let's ease into it. How about that?
Speaker 1:Oh, okay, okay.
Speaker 2:Which I don't know if it's easing into it. If your house is a 3D printed house, is that easing?
Speaker 1:into it, so does it get built faster.
Speaker 2:Yes, I didn't go into all that.
Speaker 1:I'm glad I didn't, because you wouldn't listen anyway and I'd be repeating myself. I'll just ask questions and you just answer them. You don't have to read it to us fire's going out.
Speaker 2:Yes, it is talk while I throw a lock on it what am I supposed to talk about?
Speaker 1:I had the biggest month I've ever had in Red Aspen in October. It was my birthday month, so I busted my butt. I don't know if jody saw me a whole lot during october. I think I stayed in my room, in my studio where you need to be you're about to be solo am I yeah I feel like I already have you're about to be. That stuff don't interest word. I'm saying that stuff don't interest me. Sorry, I can't.
Speaker 2:What do you mean to research?
Speaker 1:I don't know.
Speaker 2:Tell me something I don't like researching nothing.
Speaker 1:I feel like you're staging our podcast when you go researching. It's like those shows that you say are staged, scripted, scripted, yeah, even the. What are the shows called?
Speaker 2:Well, there's some that's not supposed to be scripted when they're real life, when they're yeah, if it's not, if it's supposed to be.
Speaker 1:What's it called? Not real life, but what are those shows called?
Speaker 2:I don't know, I can't think of Whatever you watch.
Speaker 1:Anything these days, Like nothing. It's getting bad.
Speaker 2:It's all that food that you've ate. It's got all these poisons in it. You want to get on that. You want me to start talking about that.
Speaker 1:No, I'm just going to quit eating. We're just into this ballgame now.
Speaker 2:Well, I'm saying Georgia about to score. I know I'm hoping Georgia's about to score. It's tied 20-20.
Speaker 1:Four minutes and six seconds left, and there he goes, and they scored. He's in Touchdown. Georgia, did Alabama play today? Did they play? I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 2:Have they been? I don't understand the play calling. I don't understand the quarterback. I don't understand the coach Some of the stuff he's doing.

Speaker 2:We're several days after Halloween now and I still see these skeletons on the Jeeps, you know, hanging on to the front, hanging on to the back. I don't know what to do. So now, the Jeep people. I don't know if that's just where we're at, where we're located with this skeleton thing, but with the Jeeps, you know, they got the ducks right. Yeah, that they put on their dash. I mean, did they send out an email to everyone and say, hey, now we have to put skeletons?
Speaker 1:riding on the front, the one that we don't know don't have a Jeep. Well, that's fine, but I'm just saying. A different car. Is that the thing? The skeleton on?
Speaker 2:the car. They're riding on the back, on the tire, they're on the front grill, they're hanging onto the side, just on Jeeps mainly. Yeah, okay, I like it.
Speaker 1:I like it.
Speaker 2:But anyway, what I was going to say is so how long are y'all people going to keep that on there? Now I'm giving y'all two or three days. These will be gone by Monday.
Speaker 1:And you're saying it needs to come down. Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2:Which is worse leaving your Halloween up longer or your Christmas up longer? I'm saying Halloween. Halloween should not dribble-drabble days and days and weeks after Halloween.
Speaker 1:So when you take your Halloween down. It's time to put Christmas up.
Speaker 2:Not necessarily. You fall back into fall.
Speaker 1:Well, that's the only decorations I got. Is fall, I don't have.
Speaker 2:Halloween, then your Halloween decorations, which is fall, carries over from October into November.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm. So yeah, november 5th, then Christmas comes out, you've lost your mind.
Speaker 2:You're just making up stuff now. It's never happened before. Why is it going to happen this year?
Speaker 1:I just want the tree up. Why, I don't know. I just want it up, I just want that couch out of there and I just want it up.

Speaker 1:I never think about it. Why don't you call and get?
Speaker 2:one. I guess I'll be trimming them this week.
Speaker 1:Let's try that.
Speaker 2:I've already tried that I would not be a groomer.
Speaker 1:I don't think I would be.
Speaker 2:I have tried to cut his hair before yeah but I'll, but I don't have the right equipment like they do right plus, I don't have the little stand that they time to and all that stuff so I'm trying to hold him.
Speaker 1:Well, that's what they do, but at least he don't come back from this one all scared.
Speaker 2:Jacked up. Yeah, yeah, the one groomer. He would be messed up for hours.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:He was like traumatized, like he had PTSD.
Speaker 1:This is funny.
Speaker 2:When we say we're going to go and then we get ramped back up on something else. Well, I got you going with this Christmas thing and you just started.
Speaker 1:I could stay on the Christmas. We could go through the whole Hallmark lineup and see which movies we're going to watch.
Speaker 2:So I did ask you is Hallmark using the same actors and actresses in a? Lot of their movies now, I think they do, but I have to say the last year or so I didn't watch Hallmark like.
Speaker 1:I was into it.
Speaker 2:You run out of ideas. You can only do the same scenario so many times.
Speaker 1:But it's feel-good movies instead of these shoot-em-up bang-em-up movies. Let me feel good with another storyline. How is there another storyline?
Speaker 2:Well, come up with something else.
Speaker 1:I don't know. They're feel-good movies. So instead of watching football out here, we'll be watching Hallmark. No, that's okay, We'll be watching Hallmark.
Speaker 2:All right, thanks for listening. We will see y'all next Monday. Maybe, Bye you.
