Speaker 2:Okay, dude, I swear to God, I've like been listening, I don't know. So I was at work the other day and you know those memes. Well, there are these memes. I saw that, saw that solidified me being the age I was. And they're still the ones that just like I hear them and it's just gut-wrenching every time and I don't know what it is, but like every time I hear like it just makes me feel happy and laugh.
Speaker 1:It's the small things.
Speaker 2:It's those really weird memories that happen. It's like, oh, I remember when I heard this, this is sweet. But yeah, I'm Noah, I'm smoking on Dinkleburg, and welcome to the Green Onions podcast where we throw out some scents.
Speaker 1:A whole lot of laughter. They're probably like how many times are they going to do this damn intro?
Speaker 2:We're done. We're done with the intro. Anna, how have you been?
Speaker 1:Good, I'm good, blessed, a little stressed.
Speaker 2:Have you been smoking on Dkelberg?
Speaker 1:no, no, I've been smoking on these chicken seasonings, oh yeah yeah, what?
Speaker 2:what y'all don't for the audio listeners? What you don't smell right now is that we are cooking something glorious and it's steaming. Actually, I'm seeing it right now in the studio in la. It's very good looking. It's good looking in a platonic way, but it's nice that we finally get to yes every week. It's just fun to. It's something I look forward to it gives us a challenge, though it is it is something like every time I cook with you I want to one-up myself, and it's a very fun thing where it's not stressful.
Speaker 1:But he didn't do nothing except shop for the food.
Speaker 2:I bought everything I chopped everything six hundred dollars on ingredients also mini chicken taco.
Speaker 1:They're like what is in these tacos? We need the recipe liquid gold, get ready and taste the rainbow. But yes, we are very excited not only about tonight and our topics and speaking with you guys, but, more importantly, our food yes, well, not more importantly the food.
Speaker 2:Let's say food, and then, more importantly, talking to yes, well, not more importantly the food, let's say food and then, more importantly, talking to you guys that is always well. Let's say me talking to anna and anna talking to me, and you guys are an extension of that and I hope you feel like it's 50 50. I do feel like you hope we're your friends at this point, because we are.
Speaker 1:Considering all our listeners, it's probably all our friends and family. No, that's what I mean.
Speaker 2:Despite have like if somebody catches me during the day and tries to talk to me about the podcast. I'm sorry. I got to sign somebody up, I'm not trying to like sit here. Right now is the time I get to talk to the people that. You know what I mean. Talk to the people, all right, everybody.
Speaker 1:Wait, wait, wait, wait. How was your week? Did you do something really exciting this week?
Speaker 2:What did I do? Oh, I did vote For the first time. For the first time ever, Actually yeah. I voted and we're not going to get into the depths or the details of the vote ting, but I did vote for the first time in my life. It was a great experience and I walked out just super happy and excited and I gave a big hug to Ian and I said I feel like a productive member of society for once and it just was very sweet it was just something that made me feel like, oh wow, this is an experience that I thought I'd get, and that was very nice.
Speaker 1:Look at you, execute your American rise, woof.
Speaker 2:Woof and was like already registered, like everybody else, was like I had like the email thing, I mean the printed out thing, like did you change addresses? And I was like my dad told me I registered and I just walked up to that little old lady. She had like a little Dunkin donuts coffee cup that had like a sheet of paper over it because she wanted to keep it warm. And then I handed her my id and I was like I think I'm good. And she was like we just had small talk and it was very cute and she said okay, to go over there and I was like okay, and it was just nice.
Speaker 2:I don't know what it is about me, but every time I walk out in like a social scenario, it's like all the people that get no action talking to anybody else try to talk to me. It's like, hey, how was your day going? I try to read every hat. I had the Cajun hat on that. Mike gave me the Louisiana thing. Oh my gosh. I was like he was like I try to read every hat that comes in here and I was like, oh, that's very sweet.
Speaker 1:He bored as heck. You got to read every hat. That's what I mean. I was like thank you.
Speaker 2:This is the sweetest thing ever. It was like a really cool process and I'm happy I did it.
Speaker 1:I'm happy you did it too.
Speaker 2:And happy Halloween to all of the onions out there, specifically green.
Speaker 1:We don't like white onions or brown or red.
Speaker 2:Well, the people that listen to us are the green onions Yep. And yeah, it's just been a really good couple days.
Speaker 2:But like on the way back from voting I had to poop really bad. I mean, I had to use the restroom really bad. And literally who I went with was telling me all this stuff and we were like three minutes, four minutes out but like in my brain, based on me having to like use the restroom, it felt like 15. And so he's telling me all this shit and I'm like I have to shit and I started farting and I was like bro, roll down the windows. I don't know he had the child lock on and I was like roll down the windows, dude. And I got home and I let out one of the best feeling defecations in my whole entire life. Welcome to the Green Onion Strap.
Speaker 1:I love how you were like talking about your feces, and then we're going to lead into food for thought, our food for thought for today. Wow.
Speaker 2:As I sip this Tahitian treat.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Our food for thought for today.
Speaker 1:Yes, let's get it.
Speaker 2:Comes from the Daily Stoic, also Ryan Holiday, which it always has been, and what is today?
Speaker 1:November 1st. Welcome to November 1st.
Speaker 2:New beginning. Every month it's a new beginning.
Speaker 1:Every day is a new beginning.
Speaker 2:Amen All right number first.
Speaker 2:November 1st, accepting what is. Don't seek for everything to happen as you wish it would, but rather wish that everything happens as it actually will. Then your life will flow well. That was from a Picatiddy and Cradaction number eight. The next one is also a pick a titty, but it is. It is easy to praise providence for anything that may happen If you have two qualities a complete view of what has actually happened in each instance and a sense of gratitude without gratitude actually happened in each instance and a sense of gratitude Without gratitude, what is the point of seeing? And without seeing, what is the object of gratitude? A pick a titty.
Speaker 1:And then from Ryan. Holiday.
Speaker 2:You might want to check on that. This is from Ryan Holiday. On that, um, this is from ryan holiday. This is a very personal thing from him because he wrote it uh, something happened that we wish had not. Which of these is the easiest to change our opinion or the event that has passed? The answer is obvious Accept what happened and change your wish that it had not happened. Stoicism calls this the art of accusesence. Yeah, accusescence, yeah, accusescence. To accept rather than fight every little thing. And the most practiced Stoics take it a step further Instead of simply accepting what happens, they urge us to actually enjoy what has happened, whatever. It is Very German name. I'm going to butcher it, anna. I'm sorry, I apologize, do it?
Speaker 1:Nisse judge it.
Speaker 2:Many centuries later, I hate your face in the best way. Coined the perfect expression to capture this idea Amor fati, a love of fate. It's not just accepting, it's loving everything that happens. To wish for what has happened to happen is a clever way to avoid disappointment, because nothing is contrary to your desires. But to actually feel gratitude for what happens and to love it, that's the recipe for happiness and joy.
Speaker 1:Damn. I like the last few sentences of that a lot.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's great it was. To wish for what has happened to happen is a clever way to avoid disappointment, because nothing is contrary to your desires, but to actually feel gratitude for what happens and to love it. That's a recipe for happiness and joy which I feel like. Happiness and joy is such like a, in a weird way, a taboo topic in this day and age.
Speaker 1:I feel like yeah, everybody's looking for a quick satisfaction, yeah exactly.
Speaker 2:It's that. Immediate gratification, it's that. Oh, if I want something, pull out my phone, find it done oh, if I want something, pull out my phone, find it done and I feel like that satisfaction, gratification, which I think is a better I mean happiness and joy are like compounding interest of doing things that make you feel good.
Speaker 1:Yes, because no one can take away your joy.
Speaker 2:Exactly, and so, with that instant gratification, that's something you can give your brain immediately, but also it's temporary. Exactly, it's that dopamine fix that's just very easily like discarded yep, real quick, exactly, shoot it in the arm let's get to it we done, or in the middle of the toes we done and it's just like you people got to understand that.
Speaker 2:You got to work for it, like, and it has to compound, and you have to like understand that putting in, putting in the work that doesn't feel good is the stuff that is going to end up feeling the best one day.
Speaker 1:That's the thing. No one wants to work. Everybody feels, and honestly.
Speaker 2:I don't need it's that instant gratification yeah?
Speaker 1:I don't want to say it's a generational thing, it is just people in this world thing. It don't want to say it's a generational thing, it is just people in this world thing. It don't matter, you can be in your 50s, 40s, 30s, 20s, teens. There is people who just want that Instagramification real quick.
Speaker 2:And then bail out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they don't want to work for it. They feel like they're owed Everybody feels like they're entitled. I'm like entitled to what? Excuse me Entitled to what Excuse? Me Entitled bro.
Speaker 2:You're entitled to breathe Exactly, and you're entitled to wake up and you're entitled to sleep. Whatever you do with that middle ground time.
Speaker 1:And honestly, you're not entitled to breathe or wake up.
Speaker 2:Well, you proved that entitlement.
Speaker 1:If the Lord just said, you know what?
Speaker 2:You get another chance. Let's start all over the lowest. I, I gave the lowest comment like the lowest wake up, sleep, breathe. People out here don't even think like that. People out here think oh, I'm just entitled yeah and if people like viewed it as I am grateful and I'm happy to just wake up and to have joy in just waking up and sleeping and breathing. It's hard to run into people that don't think that way, because they view you as like a pawn in their game of life.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they do.
Speaker 2:And that's just fucking stupid.
Speaker 1:I mean, that's just stupid I'm like man, you can't take away my job. Give a dang what you say.
Speaker 2:I am just blessed to wake up another day exactly, and I walk out of my home and the studio in la and understand on the beach on the beach. It's a dog beach, so dobermans and weenie dogs are just running around. It's very nice, but you just got to understand that, like this, life is a gift and yeah don't it's don't muck it up, yeah, and it's like the people that set expectations on it and don't have empathy for people that are going through a worse life because of stuff that's out of their control yeah honestly the whole goal in life is to be a good person inside out and to be someone else's light what is it?
Speaker 2:what is it?
Speaker 1:I think it's transparently live transparently with good intentions yes ma'am, that's it that's our new t-shirt.
Speaker 2:Out y'all, yeah it'll be out in four years. Welcome to the green.
Speaker 1:Oh no, we can whip it up tonight real good, but yes, so you guys get your lives together. Get it together, yes, or keep it together.
Speaker 2:Or, if it is together, try to be better than the day you were before.
Speaker 1:One percent. One percent One.
Speaker 2:Percent, frickin' percent, that's all. Yes, ma'am Woo. All right, I think we got a question.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we do.
Speaker 2:From wwwpleasestopmakingthepodcastatgmailcom. That's who the question comes from.
Speaker 1:Little haters. Which is more important, common sense or intelligence? Ooh, do you need a minute to think? Because I know what I think. Go For me. It's common sense. Yes, I know Common sense girl. I think for me it's common sense. Yes, I know Common sense girl. You can be so educated and intelligent and still be a freaking fool and cannot function and get through life. But if you got common sense, but if you have common sense, you can make it to the top and get through anything, and I think those people are more resourceful, they are more driven.
Speaker 2:It wasn't played again no, I'm not, I'm just holding it.
Speaker 1:I had to respond to the text so um, but I I think common sense is much more important.
Speaker 2:It is like street smarts versus book smarts, right.
Speaker 1:I mean common sense.
Speaker 2:Well, common sense versus what?
Speaker 1:is the other one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, intelligence, yeah it is street smarts versus book smarts, Because if you think about it it's like no, but okay, we're one to hell. No, if you think about it. You need a combination of both.
Speaker 1:You do.
Speaker 2:Because common sense intelligence is street smarts, book smarts. It is, as much as you want to slice it or dice it, it is that there is no street smarts, book smarts, it's it, common sense intelligence. And I feel like the people that lean too far into one camp are either the people smoking on Dingleburg or the people that have like a PhD but still can't find a job. So you have to find that middle ground where people actually can relate to you and also Is that us?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2:What.
Speaker 1:That's us. No, I'm just what is us. We're in that middle ground. Dinkelberg, that's his favorite.
Speaker 2:I don't know I hate the past two days oh my gosh I don't know where that guy is now that made that, but hit us up at the green onions podcast on instagram because I, I need, I need, I need you to be on this show. But also, it is the difference between common sense and intelligence. It is like the people that are all intelligence and never let their hair down. Quote unquote.
Speaker 1:Are crazy as hell.
Speaker 2:Exactly, and they're more crazier than the people that those people assume to be crazy all the time that always have their hair down.
Speaker 1:Those people assume to be crazy all the time that always have their hair down.
Speaker 2:So you need to find a middle ground and you have to respect that everybody's just trying to do the same thing, but also you have to like teeter between knowing that you can't go way too far into intelligence and you can't go way too far into just common sense.
Speaker 1:So you need to go down the yellow brick road. Yellow brick road.
Speaker 2:No, you just got to find the middle ground In the yellow brick road.
Speaker 1:You got to find the middle ground in the yellow brick road and then smoke Tinkleburgberg damn it if I had a I I don't know where he is, so I am so sorry people, I'm so ready for us to have like videos of this shit because, I swear to god, where are we going now?
Speaker 2:Am I asking a question?
Speaker 1:No. Hey so let's talk about since you're on this dingle bird some of our internet trends, because last night we were at our mutual job and there is this young lady named Kate Mid. Yeah, who? Well, yeah, Kate will try anything. Y'all look this girl up one. You never see her eat nothing oh my god and it is the she don't cook nothing.
Speaker 2:She may freeze something, but I think she has salmonella and I'm in between thinking it's a troll, and like real life, based on how she looks from her, like personal photos she posts. And like based on what she's cooking. I'm in between thing it's a troll in real life because, like also, I've seen women that look like that cook like that. So, like kate was at at symbol, kate will try anything. No spaces, no capitalization. Just kate will try anything. I how long did we spend looking at that Instagram page? It's really sad, but we spent multiple hours.
Speaker 2:I got off and was looking at it for another like.
Speaker 1:But what makes it worse? We didn't find nothing edible, we didn't find one recipe.
Speaker 2:Well, there was the cookie dough one, and then we swiped one down. And it was her boiling a piece of pizza in water.
Speaker 1:And what did you say? Hell to the no. No, no, you know, because I don't own a microwave. So you know I'm not going to be like a jerk about it.
Speaker 2:You don't own a microwave. No, that's okay.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we don't own a microwave, you know, because you know, jerry, yeah, all that crap, but anyways. But we have figured out ways to heat up things like pizza oven oil, air fryer Air fryer Like yo girl.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, but that like brings us back to like a crazier topic, bless you. It brings us back to a crazier topic of like internet trends, like me picking up Dinkelberg. Crazier topic of like internet trends like me picking up dinkelberg. These people are out here cooking trash ass food, wasting like 50 every time they post a video but, like, the people that are clicking and commenting on it are the people fueling them to waste that food.
Speaker 2:Even the people that are commenting oh uh, I can't believe you're wasting this amount of food that could be given. You're the one fueling it and it's not.
Speaker 1:I know you're like $50, but we know dang good as well. Some of that is more than $50 because she's cooking good pieces of meat and she's cooking steak in coffee grounds and two sticks of butter.
Speaker 2:For no reason. You can't put that shit in a crock pot. You can't.
Speaker 1:Well, butter and coffee don't go together.
Speaker 2:She ain't even seasoning the shit.
Speaker 1:No, every Blue Moon she do a little salt and pepper. It's only salt and pepper, though. There's no like anything else.
Speaker 2:No, there's no aromatics for the steak. There's no aromatics for the steak. There's no like what the hell is this bitch doing? The one that she made the sweet corn, two tubs of like crocker or whatever the fuck, and then she put the sweet. She boiled that butter and put two sticks of regular butter in and then threw four corn on the cobs that she split in half in that sweet butter that was boiling, or it wasn't even sweet butter it was.
Speaker 1:It was just regular butter fucking butter.
Speaker 2:And then she pulled it out, showed it to the camera, which she never eats. It which, anna? That is the main point.
Speaker 1:I think she's trolling because, because, like, you need to eat your stuff, you need to show us that it tastes good. It's edible, exactly. But I guess I wouldn't want coffee grinds in my throat either, or recycled butter, because she'll pour that butter back in the container and freeze that crud.
Speaker 2:Well then, she had just a pot of like hot butter, and she poured it right back in the plastic tube Of Crocker like she was going to save that shit.
Speaker 1:And she probably did save it and she used it for the next recipe we saw. I'm sure she did.
Speaker 2:I think the main comment I saw that I was like okay, the world isn't too far gone. Was somebody being like okay, at this point, I've dissed you enough, just come to France and we'll teach you. Like at this point, I've given you enough grief and you keep doing it, I will pay for your culinary school? Is like one of the comments that was posted. I was like oh my gosh, this girl is like polarizing.
Speaker 1:Or why don't she just marry very rich, and they can hire somebody to cook Exactly. How about we just do that? She's not the worst looking thing I mean.
Speaker 2:But like it's that polarizing shit, you need something polarizing Okay.
Speaker 1:I needed that, he needed that. I needed that segue, needed that, I needed that segue.
Speaker 2:but yeah, that is definitely one of those internet trends that is happening right now, um, and that's the weird thing about like getting older and I know you're in a different camp with this- yeah not like so far, but like it is that weirdness of I'm starting to feel it, even just being the age I am and thinking like the people even like five years, six, seven years removed from me are having their own Dinkelberg or like Kate will try anything, and like I feel like that's where people get out of touch and like, in an aspect of not caring if I get out of touch, it's still like I don't want to just spout stuff that isn't relevant to where. You just got to be authentic and original to yourself and that we talked about it yesterday. That shit made me laugh, for like, like, when you saw her boiling the pizza after the one thing we thought maybe would have been edible if we like, minus the sprinkles, that was like one of the hardest times I've laughed, probably in the last three months.
Speaker 1:You know what sucks? She may be authentic and original. That may be really her no hey, kate, do not come on our show.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, just invite, just email the green onions podcast because, honestly, we need to have an email conversation of whether or not you're trolling.
Speaker 1:I need to see a picture and a video to see you're eating. I want to see a picture of you eating and swallow. I need a video that's why she's only at 26,000.
Speaker 2:She's not at the next level of that shit because she won't eat the shit.
Speaker 1:I wouldn't eat it either. She will die. What the fuck. Welcome to the group. I wouldn't either.
Speaker 2:She will die. Oh, no, say Manila. What the fuck? Welcome to the green. Re-welcome, oh, re-welcome. I think that's the sixth welcome.
Speaker 1:Right, I have nothing to say. Welcome, okay. Walmart greeter.
Speaker 2:All right, Anna. Oh my goodness, what would you most like to do for someone else if you had the money and the time? Wait, let me repeat it, Anna. What would you most like to do for someone else if you had the money and time?
Speaker 1:I love how you repeat is, if I ask you to repeat the question, I had two because I don't know if it picked up on the mic as good okay, so it was more you than me, because I'm like I didn't ask um, it's not just for a person, it's A person is for people. I would like to start a nonprofit for homeless people. I would do an apartment complex.
Speaker 2:I'm not laughing at doing that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I would have an apartment complex for homeless people. We would do a rotation of homeless people. We help them find jobs, get mental health um care. That is something my mom had worked on and was one of her dreams, and so it's kind of funny. I have the whole business plan actually at my house and that is something.
Speaker 2:Don't say it on this. No, I'm not, because the vultures will just leech on it.
Speaker 1:Well, hopefully they really help the people I mean hey.
Speaker 2:If somebody leeches on it and helps them correctly, please do it. Yeah, if you got the money you want to do it, let's do it.
Speaker 1:We just want to see the best for everybody. Bothers me I. I just came back from a trip not too long ago from denver.
Speaker 1:The homeless population is wild you go downtown um, it's the same with san francisco, yeah, it's the same with la, it's the same with, and it's so sad because not everybody is homeless because they're lazy and don't want to work which I know people like that but there's people that are literally homeless because of their mental health or because they literally just don't have enough money to be in an apartment complex or the means to even help themselves I know way too much about this, but skid row, for example in los angeles, they're now literally handing, like handing out sterilized needles because, well, the main, like it's a part of, like, the health care program, quote, unquote.
Speaker 2:like I don't think people realize that the homeless population is like some of them want to be there because they don't want to put the effort in to do whatever. Even Philadelphia with the Trank epidemic, they want to be there. But also it's the people that don't. The higher-ups in these like government, everything is funneling the stuff to want to kill them them like they want to actually make them not yeah be a part of the equation anymore, because that was how skid row started.
Speaker 2:Skid row started as when the not the migration happened, but, like everybody moved to LA, they put Skid Row. It was the end of the train station and that's how Skid Row started, because the trains led to Skid Row and then in Reformation, like the 80s, they made Skid Row the spot where, oh, all the migrants and stuff end up here. We're not going to give them opportunities. They're going to stay here forever and we're going to build around it. Yeah, that's why, if you go to la, it's downtown, it's the fashion district, it's, and then skid row, they change the lights so you know you're in skid row, so you try to get out you're right they change everything because those are the people that they already count as dead, and that's the sad thing.
Speaker 2:And to answer the question I asked you, it would be the same thing it's. I would start a non-profit. It's kind of like for me lebron how, which we're not going to get in the goat. Talk about LeBron Michael, yeah let's not do that. But LeBron is so ahead of the curb on how he was able to give back to his community.
Speaker 2:And that's what I hear you saying Anna, like he started a school, started a school, he's gotten a lot of underprivileged kids out of the situation they were in just by putting the money into giving them the education they need. Yeah, and that's what I would do. I would try to start something to help better the youth or society in general.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And that's all I think we can do as people at this point. Like, if we're good, why aren't we trying to help anybody else? Like, if we're good, yeah, we can try to like build up ourselves even more and then just get in the league of the. Epsteins and the Harvey, and it's like no, get in the league of the Epsteins and the Harvey. And it's like no, I just want to like, bring everybody else up too. So we're on even playing ground yeah.
Speaker 2:I'm not saying that, that was the example I was making, because those are evil people and I feel like that's the decision you have to make before you cross the threshold. Do you want to be a LeBon that's helping kids get out of really bad situations, or do you want to be a sex trafficker like diddy? Yeah, I won't get into it but it's like that's.
Speaker 2:That's gonna be the shit that, like even kat williams in that interview, it's like I had to turn down 50 million dollars, like three times. It's the same with Dave Chappelle you make these decisions.
Speaker 1:Who do you want to be?
Speaker 2:do you want to go to heaven or hell?
Speaker 1:essentially like in the little Pocahontas movie, when she's trying to make that decision do you go down the smooth and curvy river, or do you go down the one that is wavy and bumpy?
Speaker 2:that was a great example.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I like Pocahontas, I like Pocahontas, so wow.
Speaker 2:That was a good question.
Speaker 1:Yeah, who picked that Anna? Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 2:No, that was you. I was going to say it was me, but it was not.
Speaker 1:Taking credit. What are some modern problems that you have that you thought you would never have?
Speaker 2:Honestly.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, honestly, duh, let's not lie about it.
Speaker 2:DoorDash fees. Well yeah, honestly, duh, let's not lie about it.
Speaker 1:Door dash fees that's what he worries about. I live in the boonies in the country. There is no door dash.
Speaker 2:I am the door dash, door dash fees. Who the fuck? If the door dash delivery free and the tip went to the driver, I'd be fine with it.
Speaker 1:But it doesn't yeah.
Speaker 2:We need to look at the over-under of DoorDash's stock prices and how much they're fucking making off just a fee that just gets added. Oh, probably a crap ton. Just add it. To add, there is no reason for that fee.
Speaker 1:But that's like when you order pizza and they deliver, they give you a delivery fee.
Speaker 2:I would rather do that though.
Speaker 1:But then you got to pay a tip too. Like hell to the no.
Speaker 2:If I call a pizza place, no, they just deliver. It depends if it's outside a certain radius.
Speaker 1:They give you a damn delivery fee?
Speaker 2:No, they don't, yes, they do do it's like 50 to 100% off of what door dash?
Speaker 1:pizza hut is next door to me and they still give me a delivery fee and then ask me for a damn tip about pizza hut, again in a negative connotation, I swear I sure the hell did yes, and what what's good?
Speaker 2:no, I'm joking okay, I have a really nostalgic reason that I like pizza hut. I don't like pizza hut for their pizza it's butt cheek but I like their wings. It was the first thing as a 13 year old I called, called into a restaurant, I paid in quarters and I got wings from pizza hut and I still think their boneless wings buffalo are the best thing you could possibly get. Now that is just me being nostalgic. It's like me liking Subway. But see no class, it's nostalgic. It's nostalgic for me.
Speaker 1:Your taste buds Every hangover.
Speaker 2:At this point I get Subway.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:So you can't judge me if it's nostalgic.
Speaker 1:My stomach and mouth is very bougie, that's the gray period.
Speaker 2:That is the point in time you can't like, no, okay.
Speaker 1:I've had better rings since then. Now, granted, I grew up on Pizza Hut, but I've had better wings since then, oh no but they put it in the plastic container that you can like.
Speaker 2:You can just like shake it up and then all of them get coated in that like buttery not even buttery, but like liquidy buffalo nonsense. And then it's like sweet and sour chicken from an Asian place, because you know it's probably made by eating the dogs and the cats and like you know it's probably made by they're eating the dogs and the cats and, like you, know, it's probably that, but it's so good, so good.
Speaker 1:Okay, anyway, I you know cause I'm a.
Speaker 2:I'm a chicken wing lover, wait that doesn't disqualify me as being a chicken wing.
Speaker 1:No, it does, it does, no, it does not. Yeah, you're like it's still the best.
Speaker 2:Nostalgia chicken wing love is not completely disqualified Disqualified. I've had every other chicken wing Rejected, which I don't even consider that Pizza Hut is chicken wing love because they're chicken nuggets. I just think that's chicken wing love.
Speaker 1:I mean chicken nugget love. That is chicken nugget love, that's not chicken wings, exactly.
Speaker 2:Bone in, we can have a completely different conversation, because bone in, I know my chicken wings.
Speaker 1:I hope so.
Speaker 2:You know, I know so.
Speaker 1:You know, I know. So Let me just say I've upgraded my taste since then. Subway ain't even on the radar.
Speaker 2:Well, subway, subway. It's nostalgic. I, I eat it once a month, maybe even like once every three you're just wasting your money.
Speaker 1:I got a gift card. Well, they shouldn't you.
Speaker 2:I hope you spend it all real soon now I'm frustrated because you need to go into 2025, eating some classy sandwiches. I make my own Subway sandwich. Now, you know this.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, We'll stick to that man.
Speaker 2:That's why the roast beef is in the fridge in our studio in LA. You know that.
Speaker 1:I might be putting on for these podcast listeners.
Speaker 2:But you know I'm not selling buns. But once a month you still go and you donate to them, but once a month.
Speaker 1:You still. You know you go and once every three you donate to them because it's a donation, because then you got to go to the bathroom because it ain't right sometimes I don't have time to make my own.
Speaker 2:It's like that homeless thing you're talking.
Speaker 1:No, I'm just that's not how that works.
Speaker 2:No bad segue, exactly the wrong thing to say at that point yours is DoorDashVs modern problems.
Speaker 1:I thought I would never have um damn. I don't know. You know what I have? You know what?
Speaker 2:so anna's gonna talk about the modern problems she didn't think she'd had have into the microphone right now and I'll be like a minute.
Speaker 1:But anna, but here's the thing I can hear you, but keep yeah oh well, great, you can hear me, I'm so scared.
Speaker 1:But well, that's the thing. Like i't, I've always led a very like stress-free lifestyle, and so I don't. I don't have any real modern problems, you know, I think I'm. The problem I have is like a lot of unfortunately grandparents have, but I'm the great aunt and that's raising someone else's kids because they choose to be irresponsible, and your goal is to, of course, be a good person and help out, assist, adopt, whatever the case may be, and so I think, if anything, that's my modern problem. And now that I'm at a point where I am no longer having a hundred percent stress-free life, you know, let me take that back I do have a stress-free lifestyle as an overall, but you know, you as a parent, as I've learned, you start to worry, not dink of her, oh my gosh. You start to worry about um that is my walk up intro.
Speaker 1:That that clearly is, but that is definitely something you do. You start to stress about how are you as an adult, how everyone around you, how everything is happening is affecting your children, so I'm sorry, I interrupted that with denkelberg. Yes, and then work-life balance. I think that's a modern problem I didn't think I would have, because I really do enjoy.
Speaker 2:That is a current problem for me. I'm like having a really hard time. Well, not really hard, but just like it is, like it's a newfound realization. It just feels like every day somebody's smashing a plane on my head of like, oh, do this. And it's like, wait, I never thought I'd have to plan for this.
Speaker 1:That's why I'm writing lists.
Speaker 2:I'm writing like notes of what I have to do because I can't keep up with it all.
Speaker 1:Welcome to being an adult.
Speaker 2:I feel like we've been saying that for the whole season one. Right, Season two. You just talk to me like I'm already in the zone.
Speaker 1:Season two we, we're gonna grow up, we're adulty, but no um like now. It's just because a couple of things one, I am working towards some sort of a promotion at my other job. Two, it is balancing family life and it's not like I had nine months to plan family life. I had one month and these kids are half damn grown, so that's a whole nother level. You deal with their personality, then my personality and then my chilled husband. Who's like y'all? He's probably like y'all damn crazy. He's like I'm moving out if he don't come home one night.
Speaker 2:I know why but no, he's not like that at all, jerry yeah, jerry's cool um so cool he's better than me, but I, I love him without like. I've only met him one time and I already, like we talked about this last episode I'm like dude, he's cooler than he's so chill, I was trying to impress him and he was in my home. I know it's the same thing.
Speaker 1:It's wild, I'm like what?
Speaker 2:hey, as guys it we sense energy and it. Most of these guys out here be doodoo garbage pants, so it's easy to sense an energy of a good guy and then, as a good guy, we try to like appease the other good guys.
Speaker 1:It's like okay, and it's good guy, energy yeah exactly.
Speaker 2:Actually, we can sense these like frat, just like fuck wads, like a mile away, but like once we meet another good guy. We're just like okay, let's help elevate each other, Be better as people. Let's, people, let's yeah. And it's just like how can? We yeah, like contribute to each other and jerry is definitely one of the very, very good ones he is. He's very good he.
Speaker 1:Jerry, very good he is he's and you know what? And I and I, I really honestly, he balances me out because I'm a, I'm a no person. I have no problem saying no, that's no. My husband's like, well, let's think about it, pros and cons, like he just has this whole thing yeah or yeah, no, we shouldn't punish them. Maybe we should, you know, talk about it. I'm like, oh heck, no, they're getting grounded. Can we talk?
Speaker 1:talk, I can't see no, I'm joking sorry, can we talk before we get lost? I sound like a cat. That's a great song, it's called.
Speaker 2:Can't we just talk? Can we just talk? Can we just talk? Can we just talk?
Speaker 1:Think about where we're going. I was singing Tevin Campbell and he went on some.
Speaker 2:No, this was like 2016. This was like a great pop song yeah, last week.
Speaker 1:Okay, oh no, oh, my God, don't make me. And I'm talking about like back in the day. I'm talking about back in the day stuff and he's like 2016. Okay, last week. Okay, that's back in the day for me, okay, yeah.
Speaker 2:Okay, could you tell me a story or memory of your brother's and or sister?
Speaker 1:I remember a couple of things. So my older sister and I are about 12, 13 years apart, so me and my brother are about 17, 18 years apart. But when my brother started college, he would pick me up like literally like every other weekend and we would yeah, he would pick me up like every other weekend what kind of car was it?
Speaker 1:I don't know, it was like old school. I was a kid, I was a toddler, but I remember no, I don't, I just remember always sitting in the back but he would always take me to really nice. Him and his girlfriend at the time would take me to really nice restaurants. They had a lot of cats I remember that hated it, hated it, but um, I would always spend it for me, but I would always spend the weekend and stuff take me to a lot of little different restaurants and I remember like listening to very popular music. I think that's why I like like music like leonard skinner and you know def leopard and you know, I think that's why I like like music like leonard skinner and you know def leopard and you know, I think that's why I like that kind of music, because he would play it but at home, which also my mom one guy do the um whole solo on free bird I don't know, axum, you want to call him up?
Speaker 2:no, that was a joke. There was like six people that just traded off on the guitar solo. Okay, that's why you like all that stuff.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry to cut you off but no, but that is why. So that is definitely one memory I have and I think it helped with me kind of seeing all kinds of lifestyles, because back home, when I would go home, my mom is very Christian, very clean cut, very family oriented. You know, my kids are not listening to rap music.
Speaker 1:We're not using any um, yeah, or bonics, although you know my mom be like shit all the time, like she would just say that word, that was like her go-to word. But um, and then with my older sister, I always remember she just dressed me and my sister alike, a lot Like my sister would be purple and I would be pink or vice versa. We would always have the matching Converse or Jordans with our outfits. Our little bows, our little balls in our hair would match, like she kept us right, like all the time. Very good, second mom. So I definitely remember that. And then my little sister.
Speaker 1:she was a pain in my ass in general but, that's just the way it was, you know like, and it's crazy because people don't understand our dynamic. Like we, we fight hard, like we go months, sometimes years, sometimes, without talking, but when it comes down to getting shit done, doing the right thing, oh, we come back together real quick. We don't even have to do, it's easy. Yeah, we don't have to do all this. I'm so sorry. Oh my God, we don't have to do all that we ain't got to do all that.
Speaker 2:Like we come together.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and we have each other's back, even when people don't think we do, and that's the thing that, um people, they kind of get a little shocked by it. Sometimes they're like whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on, honey, don't never get it twisted.
Speaker 2:We got this like, and we're a tighter bond than whoever's trying to literally we are to whoever you're talking to, you know what I mean yeah, like I don't think they they don't like we haven't been through the same amount of shit, so don't sit here and try to yeah, think that we've been more like they don't get it.
Speaker 1:So, but that is definitely um, some memories I do have of my siblings and um, regardless of the shit I talk about them, they are great siblings. They've taught me a lot. They put me through a lot. I probably put them through a lot because they probably think I'm just just straight down the middle. And I'm not trying to be straight down the middle, I'm just trying to live right all the time. Yeah, I, you know I'm like a.
Speaker 2:I think we all need to think that way. I think, we all need to understand that shit gets difficult and, despite however you may veer from the middle, we're all trying to be on the middle.
Speaker 1:Or.
Speaker 2:I can't think about the people that are intentionally trying to not be on the middle just to throw you off the middle, and I just have to be on the middle, just to like throw you off the middle and I just have to be on the middle consistently because it's and I think I have a pretty good radar for people that aren't trying to keep me on the middle.
Speaker 2:Now for me, that same question. I only had one sibling, or have one sibling, and it's my sister, and the memory that came to mind when, uh, we figured out the question earlier was when I was a kid and enchanted came out. You remember that movie?
Speaker 2:yeah, I loved it it's weird that that was the first memory that came to mind, but there was one. We were in elementary school, it was in Pennsylvania, and I know we talked about earlier in the season about how kids can't be bored anymore. We can't just play with door hinges or whatever.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:But we watched every time me and her got home from school, because the school in Pennsylvania was a K-12. Because it was such a small community that it just could be that at the time, and so we would get home from school at the same time and we just watched Enchanted, whole week straight.
Speaker 2:Every time we got home from school we watched that movie and that was just like a very odd memory I have. That's a pretty cool memory. Well, I love that movie Still to this day. I swear to God, if somebody played Enchanted I'd be able to sing every song. Still haven't seen Enchanted 2.
Speaker 1:But also it's like why would you want to exactly?
Speaker 2:I have such a good memory with the first one don't want to ruin it do I need to watch the like wannabe remake of the movie that I'm so nostalgic?
Speaker 1:with. That's funny, because that's how I feel about carlito's way. First moved here. All of a sudden my DVD player didn't work for any of the other movies I had, oh no. So I had to watch Carlitos Way like every day. Because I didn't have money, because I didn't have a job, I literally had to play DVDs. But my DVD player only worked for that one movie.
Speaker 2:PS5.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I watched the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown last night on my PS5.
Speaker 2:Only worked for that one movie, ps5. Yeah, so there was no. I watched great, uh, the great pumpkin charlie brown last night on my ps5. Yeah, I've seen. It's a blu-ray player. Everybody I feel like a lot of people that don't know about technology.
Speaker 1:If you buy a gaming system, it has a blu-ray player installed we do realize that's on the box, so hopefully they read the box.
Speaker 2:No, they don't they just think it's gaming for call of duty. And then the kids are going to get polluted by killing people no, you can actually pay all those old, stupid dvds that you have on. Whatever gaming system you buy for your people, that will also promote them to do whatever the fuck they want on that game.
Speaker 1:It's just my husband. We don't allow, we don't, we don't allow the boy to play any video games. But or anybody. But no, it's kind of funny because the first um I can't remember, was it the ps. It may have been the ps5. No, it was not the ps5, because I bought jerry like two, one, two three, four, five yeah, I bought him two prior to five three, four and five yeah, and I bought him two before that one and two at friends houses because I wasn't cool enough to have oh, you weren't cool, not cool.
Speaker 2:They just didn't want me to. But that is.
Speaker 1:I had a wee those are a couple of the first gifts that I bought, jerry and I remember just thinking. One they were so damn expensive. Two I'm sitting here in the store like a nerd reading everything that it features and stuff so I'm like nobody else checks that shit right.
Speaker 1:Well, clearly not because I'm like you know it's on the box, you're like, yeah, yeah, but so I guess I'm the nerd. Clearly I don't belong, but because I didn't grow up playing video games anyways. But, yeah, jerry's, just yeah, I, I buy him gaming systems, I'm glad you know, that's that would be, I think, before years of recent.
Speaker 2:my favorite gift I got was a PS3. And that was in 2013. And I had a Wii for so long and I was trying to play.
Speaker 1:I had 2K10, 11, and 12 on the Wii Yep, all I can think about the Wii is just playing.
Speaker 2:For the audio listeners and it's just made like the exact phase you had to connect the nunchuck. That's how you moved, and then you shot by, like flicking the wrist, and then the 13 came out with jay-z.
Speaker 2:And then I got a ps3 and I swear to God it was the only gift I got, that I just ran around the house Like I opened it and I was like, oh my God, and I just like started doing laps and it was like that's like the one memory I have of that gift, that I was like just Thank God, Because I'm like I can't imagine playing and then, like two years later, like a year later, the ps4 came out, and that was the whole other debacle but yeah, I just can't imagine playing it on wii like it's just, oh, it's terrible, because I'm like we is like to me, like one of those active games like no, you may play bowling or tennis on it.
Speaker 2:I had Wii Sports Resort. That was a big game I spent a lot of my afternoons on. And then I had the Wii Fit with the little board with the weight. But they weren't trying to make me lose weight, it was just for figuring out coordination or whatever. I love the Wii and I still have the wii. If anybody that's listening right now has a wii sports resort with the connectors, I would love for you to send them to our po box for the green onions podcast. But also I would love the Green Onions podcast. But also I would love the Wii Fit board and you can send that to the PO box for the Green Onions podcast also, but yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2:Gaming systems are a really good way to get to somebody's heart because it's like, oh, you know, clearly yours.
Speaker 1:Because I mean they wouldn't get into my heart, they're expensive.
Speaker 2:You're right. They are hella expensive and it's like somebody doesn't want me to waste my time doing something terrible, as opposed to just sitting there and playing a basketball game.
Speaker 1:So y'all send him the damn game, send me so he don't have a ps5 now and xbox series.
Speaker 2:So send me all the games that you can. Oh my god, geez, I got really sad there for a second. I don't?
Speaker 1:yeah, I'm like please send them all the games, all of them shoot. I'll go buy you something that's right, she's.
Speaker 2:She had her keys in her hand.
Speaker 1:She's ready right, oh lord, hey. So now what something has been on my mind? Okay, so some of y'all follow me on tiktok, some of y'all don't, and that's cool, but us? Well, I think I put it on my personal tiktok okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, it's because this okay, do you?
Speaker 1:follow. I think maybe follow me okay. Yeah, follow me so, but I remember texting you this because I was in a meeting at work with some co-workers and they asked a question about what is Scotland's um national animal yes and of course everybody's like maybe thinking like you know, monkey gorilla you know, normal animals you know. I mean not, maybe not those, but you know.
Speaker 2:But you know, normal animals, ones that were like oh you know, well, I wasn't thinking like you know normal animals. Those were the first ones that were like oh, you know.
Speaker 1:Well, I wasn't thinking like you know, maybe lion, cheetah, okay, fine, damn it, fine. A leopard, yeah, and a tortoise, well, that would have made more sense. You know real life animals. And so my coworkers and I, we were sitting there thinking, you know, and we're thinking normal animals. You, you know, this is your national animal. Well, of course, we all got it wrong and the answer was the unicorn for where. Scotland national animal is the unicorn.
Speaker 2:When you texted me this shit. I was honestly like what the hell?
Speaker 1:you probably thought I was crazy.
Speaker 2:I didn't think you were crazy, I was just like, and you immediately followed up the message in telling me what it was with, why it was what it was. So can you please?
Speaker 1:Okay. So of course, you know, I run home, I'm telling Jerry this and Jerry's all like well, babe, that doesn't sound like too off, because you know the Bible speaks of unicorns. And I'm like because I'm like, do they like I mean and don't? I love the Lord, and I do read the Bible not as in depth as I probably should, because when I read the Bible I'm looking for my solution. But the Bible does mention the unicorn in several places and I'll tell you guys a few verses. Job, chapter 39, verses 9 through 10.
Speaker 2:You mean Job.
Speaker 1:I'm going to say Job.
Speaker 2:It's Job. Yeah, I know you say Job.
Speaker 1:Will it make you happy, noah.
Speaker 2:Yes, Job.
Speaker 1:Job Fine, you're happy.
Speaker 2:That's how it's pronounced.
Speaker 1:Listen, okay, listen, I'm fired up about this. Okay, so things are gonna get pronounced Numbers, chapter 23, verses 22. Numbers, Numbers, chapter also 24, verses. Let me see that word hold on deuteronomy deuteronomy is fine. You pronounce that right numbers is not chapter 13, verses 17 okay what do you call it? Numbers, numbers. Let me see it. It's really numbers, isn't it?
Speaker 2:he don't read the bible either no, I know all the names, but you thought job was job. Well, so if I fuck up numbers, I feel like we're in the same kind of boat.
Speaker 1:So how can you? Don't mess that one up. Okay, you messed up job, okay, but I was fired up. I know the real way to pronounce it. Okay, now, no, I knew then too. He's judging, I'm not, he's gonna eat chicken tonight. Um, I he's, he don't get your cilantro. And then Isaiah, chapter 34, verses 7. And I did read them, but the Bible does mention unicorns, and as they are not the fairytale creatures that many people think of today, instead they were real creatures that were familiar to people in ancient times, that's wild. What the heck that's wild, that's insane.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so those the ones that didn't get invited on Noah's Ark apparently not, because we don't have them anymore they might be out there though but how come no one's seen them? There's 80 percent of the ocean that hasn't been like explored you think these unicorns are hanging? Out in the ocean For millions of years. What if they morphed into sea creatures and are in the depths, frolicking with their horns.
Speaker 1:So are they cousins with the seahorse? They could be.
Speaker 2:And they're with.
Speaker 1:King Triton and Ariel.
Speaker 2:No, if unicorns were as cool as they say they are, then they probably sped up the Darwinism evolution tactic, like they probably evolved faster than regular little like dumbass animals and they're probably like frolicking under the surface, like with the Megalodon.
Speaker 1:Y'all.
Speaker 2:You know I'm not fucked up on this. You know I'm like in the right but scotland is because really the unicorn yeah, what person in scotland, anybody from scotland, emailed the green and let me know when you've seen a unicorn for that to be justified to be your state animal or like country animal or whatever the heck.
Speaker 1:And it's been their animal for over 600 years, though.
Speaker 2:Wait, that actually Not the Loch Ness Monster.
Speaker 1:That's funny that you said that, because one of my co-workers said the same thing. But no, not the Loch, no.
Speaker 2:See, now I'm actually concerned With the people. Or what person tripping psychedelics saw a unicorn at one point doing a hike in scotland. That made them like make that this. And what notoriety did they have in scotland to be able to like get that poll maybe to make that the state what was her name?
Speaker 1:um, I can't even think of her name, but anyway, she elizabeth well, no, the one that got her head cut off uh, marie antonin yes, maybe it was her no no, no, it was um yeah, it was marie antonin no, it was amelia erhart that's no, that's america, and that was a plane and she was a bermuda triangle and we still haven't found her. She probably living a very happy life also rip amelia.
Speaker 2:Amelia erhart, I know you're living with tupac in cuba right now and y'all are having a very happy life but also in cuba.
Speaker 1:somebody would have found him by now. She in the Bermuda Triangle?
Speaker 2:No, she swam from the Bermuda Triangle to Cuba with Tupac.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:It was star-crossed lovers which are the best love story Tupac and Amelia Earhart 2025. Do you?
Speaker 1:know. The age difference between the two of them is wild.
Speaker 2:Well, she was preserved. Being in the Bermuda Triangle. It's like Captain America in the first movie of him in the Avengers he came out, he was frozen and every story has a little truth to it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so you're right.
Speaker 2:Every lie has a semblance of truth.
Speaker 1:And every kiss begins with K truth, and every kiss begins with k yes oh, everybody, and is about to close this out honestly yes, I am, I think we've had like an hour and a half podcast.
Speaker 2:At this point I may be completely like way too far off, but I love doing this for y'all and I love doing it with anna and is like a phenomenal, amazing person that just makes me happy to be around and uh oh, that's sweet yeah, everybody, I'm so glad we're recording this so all my friends and family can know I'm a great person.
Speaker 2:She's gonna put it on like a playback button like one of those staples buttons, like that was easy and she'll like put my voice that when. I said that on that button to whenever I'm like.
Speaker 1:Yeah, when one of my relatives it's just like, and I love you. Yeah, when my relatives is like you're a piece of shit, I'm like uh-uh.
Speaker 2:No, Push that button. I'm a great fucking person bitch.
Speaker 1:But I enjoy this. I do. It has become a Friday routine for me, One of the best honestly. And it challenges me because, as anybody knows, I have this thing From October to December. I really throw down, but we started this podcast. What May June?
Speaker 2:April. Oh yeah, We've been going.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we've cooked every Friday, so I'm becoming a year-round cook. What?
Speaker 2:Everybody yes, Honestly, me too. So before this, I recently got introduced to cooking, quote unquote. I've been around it my whole life but never really cared. And then, two years ago, I actually really started caring and wanting to like as soon as the bear dropped, season one.
Speaker 1:Love that show.
Speaker 2:I really wanted to be into like cooking and I have been to like cooking and I have been and with Anna's acceptance, and like tolerance and cooking with somebody who's a little bit less experienced. It's been a nice bonding thing. Whenever we said therapy in the early episodes it was us talking while we were cooking and, uh, it's just nice to be at a point where it's like, oh, we're learning how to like make new stuff and that's awesome I think the great thing is you already knew how to boil water and you like seasoning I one time I made seasoning like I put some shit on chicken.
Speaker 2:it was way too much. I literally like it was so spicy from chili powder and red pepper flakes that I was like this was a bad idea and I cooked it in a skillet with like one fourth of the butter I should have used. And so now it's nice to know the difference.
Speaker 1:You're doing way better than Kate I know man RIP Kate.
Speaker 2:RIP she died Kate send us an email and let us know if you're trolling, but if you're not, we need you on the show.

Speaker 1:I don't know why I was so slow at saying it, like I couldn't read. All of a sudden I was like don't overthink it by Mark Nepo and we're reading November 1st.
Speaker 1:welcome to the new month. Y'all, let's make it a great. This is called the next moment of love. To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit oneself to too many projects, to want to help everyone and everything, is to succumb to violence. The frenzy of the activist neutralizes his or her work for peace. That quote is from Thomas Merton. Merton wisely challenged us not just to slow down but, at the heart of it, to accept our limitations. We are at best filled with the divine, but we have only two hands and one heart.
Speaker 1:In a deep and subtle way, the want to do it all is a want to be it all and through it comes from a desire to do good. It often becomes frenzied because our ego sees our goodness as a way to be revered. I have done this many times not wanting to say no, not wanting to miss an opportunity, not wanting to be seen as less than totally compassionate. But wherever I cannot bring my entire being, I am not there. It is like offering to bring too many cups of coffee through a crowd. I always spill something hot on some innocent along the way.
Speaker 1:Helen Luke speaks to all this. When she talks of the trap of good works, she refers to those who take refuge from themselves in an unreflective pursuit of good, pouring all their energy into the redemption of society and other people, while blind to their own personal darkness. It seems the old adage is a place to start Do one thing and do it well, though I would offer it as do one thing at a time and do it entirely, as it will lead you to the next moment of love. So I encourage all of you guys to center yourself and think of the many kindnessness that you feel called to do, and also take a deep breath, let your heart glow around one Without thinking. Pray for others, but devote yourself today to the one and tomorrow to the one. With that being said, thank you for joining. Oh, my God, I am going to choke him out.
Speaker 1:Oh my God. With that being said, thank you for joining.

Speaker 2:Take two deep breaths and be 3% better than you were yesterday, or five, let's do five. Five, okay Five is like an even number.
Speaker 1:Yes, I can't stand you. I've come to that conclusion. Wait, I've got to put it in. Wait, I gotta put it in, and then we'll close it out.
