Send us an anonymous message!

After the end of Summer sabbatical, the mics go hot and we dive right in—saying goodbye to a European summer and back to reality in NY where everyone is hungry for a table. One of us starts a new job that’s oddly energizing, the other tracks Oura stats like it’s a sport. We talk couch naps, partner wake-ups, and how “better numbers” don’t always mean a better day. And then there’s family life: late-night teen hangouts, curfews enforced between yawns, and the art of being present without being overbearing.

Speaker:

Hi, I'm Allison. And I'm Jenn. Welcome to our podcast that we've been on a sabbatical from. But we're back.

Speaker 1:

We're back. And we have a lot to talk about. Well, we also haven't caught up together in a long time, so I feel like this is gonna be just a double. We're gonna be all over.

Speaker:

The last we left off, I don't even remember. I came back from vacation.

Speaker 1:

You had a nice vacation, and I was talking about that I was going on vacation. Yeah. And where did you go? I went to Sardinia and it was beautiful. Um, very, very like meets all of the expectations of like water. If you're a beach lover, it is very expensive um to go and to explore, but worth it. Like it was so beautiful. I feel like while I was there, I noticed how the I the most beautiful places are literally occupied by other countries and military, and there are native people there that are just it's I I noticed it in Hawaii, I noticed it in Sardinia, and it happens everywhere. Um the culture of Sardinia is different than Italy in in a lot of ways, and then some in some ways not, like the food felt very much at home when we went to some of the restaurants, and I mean the place is gorgeous, it's like literally a bucketless spot. I don't know if I would go again because it just I think they are opening up uh direct flight, and it's just gonna be a lot easier for people to go in and out, and it's you know, it's gonna get more crowded then. So it'll be more crowded, and I'm glad that I went, but I don't think I'd do it again. I want to Sicily though. I think that's where like that's where my family is, you know. I feel like on my on my mom's side. Um, so I think that would be my next trip. And and then um I'll be Italy to out for a while.

Speaker:

I definitely want to go back to Italy because we definitely did not have enough time there. Yeah, but yeah, I wouldn't go back to the house.

Speaker 1:

This ship was more like Greece than Italy, right?

Speaker:

Right. I wouldn't go back to the same area that we were in, I would go like somewhere else, but it was definitely a good time. Did you guys have oh my god, I didn't tell you this story when you were in Italy in the shower. Was there like a um a cord that you could pull for an emergency?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, always.

Speaker:

Yeah, did I tell you this story? No, so you know, like I'm half deaf, I don't hear anything. Yeah, we came home like well, not home. We came back to the hotel like super late. I take a shower, and actually, no, I'm sorry. I'm waiting to take a shower. Mike goes in first, and all of a sudden I hear like this faint noise. I'm like, what is that noise? And he's like, I don't know, I don't know. What are you talking about? And I'm like, what is that noise? All of a sudden the phone rings and someone's like, Hello, hi, ma'am, is everything okay? Do you need assistance? And I'm like, oh no, he's in the shower. He accidentally hit the cord. And they were like, Okay, well, we have to send somebody up to shut the thing off. It was like one o'clock in the morning, and I'm like, okay. So I'm like, hurry up, get out of the shower. Somebody has to come up here and shut the alarm off. It's like now I have to wait. I can't even take a shower now because I have to wait for someone to come up. So, like 10 minutes later, somebody comes up, bangs on the door, and they're like, Are you sure everything's okay? And I'm like, Yeah, no, we're fine. Just hit it in the shower. And it was like, so the shower was so narrow. So now I have to go in the shower after this. And the whole time I'm like, here's where I hit this stupid freaking cord. God it goes off again.

Speaker 1:

I mean, uh, don't get me wrong, every time I see it, I have the craziest intrusive thoughts of just like pulling it, and then I'm just like, don't touch it, just don't do it.

Speaker:

I literally like touch the string, like this would be really bad. Or what would happen? How loud can the noise be?

Speaker 1:

Like, what would happen? And you just answered my freaking question, so now I don't have to.

Speaker:

It's so funny because all of a sudden, like, I'm like, what is that? He's like, You can hear that, and I'm like, Yeah, like it's like a faint ringing. What is that?

Speaker 1:

That's so funny. Oh my gosh. So um, my trip, it was like 12 weeks since my surgery, um, that week of the trip. And I was like, you know, that's a good time to like have a drink. A couple of Aperol spritzes. Uh-oh, how'd that go? It was fine. It was totally fine. I was drunk fast. It was tipsy after like two. One gypsy. But it's like to echo, it's not like real.

Speaker:

Yeah, I can't get into them. I don't know.

Speaker 1:

They're like bitter, but I felt like a spritz was like the perfect drink to have versus you know, like heavy wine or oh yeah, for sure. Any sort of liquor. So it worked out. But I was tipsy. Was it super hot when you were there? Yeah, it was beautiful. It was um 80s and the water was warm still, and you know, obviously it's the end of September. And I think that's the most perfect time to go travel because you know, there were some things that were closed, like you know, more popular spots for like beach beach clubs and stuff like that, but that's not what I'm interested in, so I didn't care. It's not that crowded, and you know, just absolutely sweltering some days where I I mean I got sunburn a little bit. Not that I got sunburned, but like I didn't put sunblock on thinking I had a tan for the whole summer and I still got pretty dark. Oh yeah, we were melting. Yeah, so it was melting. It's a really good time to go, honestly.

Speaker:

Yeah, I feel like I would definitely I would honestly go back when it's like there, like not winter, but like when they're it's their fall to do things more like inland and not like worry about beach and stuff like that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I can see like that's where I would do like go up north a little bit to like, you know, things like that. Yeah, I love I I would go back. I we were in Rome just to like catch our flight, and I was sad that we didn't like spend a couple of days there because it's it's one of my favorite places. I think you would love Rome.

Speaker:

It's like yeah, no, I definitely want to go there. That's what I said. I would rather go there when it's like fall and like not sweltering hot, and like I don't care about going to the beach because there's just so much to see and do. Yeah, because there's there's no beach there. No.

Speaker 1:

Um so yeah, so um, so now we're back at it. I'm at my new new job. And how's that going? Settling in, a lot of work to do, three days in the office, um, which if you would have asked me two companies ago, I probably would have been so miserable. And with this new company, I really don't mind it at all. That's great. Yeah, I'm not drained or anything like that. Um you know, there's it's a different kind of company, it's smaller, but there's uh some interesting processes to try and make more efficient at some point, but you gotta pick and choose your battles when you start something new.

Speaker:

So Right. Your aura ring is having you having a better stress score for you.

Speaker 1:

Sort of. Well, I compare you and I when I wake up in the morning. I know whether or not you woke up or not.

Speaker:

I do it too. When I'm on a train, it says like new circle thing, and it gives like the little movement. I'm always like, Oh, let's see how Jen slept last night. You definitely sleep way better than me. Oh my god, girl, I am on the couch, alcoholed by 9:30 sometimes.

Speaker 1:

You sleep way better than me. I did sleep better than you last night, though. I know, I don't know why. I fell asleep really early. I fell asleep on the couch for two hours. Yeah, me too.

Speaker:

But no, your readiness score is always higher than mine, even if like your sleep score is lower, your readiness, which means that your HRV, your heart rate variability is better than mine, which is I think my sleep score is not as good sometimes because Mike wakes me up 14 times.

unknown:

That sucks.

Speaker:

But it's also because I tell him. So last night I told him wake me up in five minutes that I would go to bed, and he said he tried for over an hour. Really? Oh my god. And I was just like, five more minutes, five more minutes.

Speaker 1:

So um Lily has a little boyfriend and they hang out here, which I'm totally fine with, you know. But I get worried because like I am passed out on the couch. So last night I was like waking up, it was like 11 something, and I'm like, I'm like Lily. I like I wanted to pretend like I was up the entire time. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. No, they know I'm not I'm sleeping. But I was like, it's time for bed. So her boyfriend had to go home. I was like, it's too late now. Yeah, you have to go. Yeah. I'm like too tired. Let's go. But they're cute.

Speaker:

So me and Mike went on a date night, like I don't know, two weeks ago. Go to like whatever. Last minute, we're like, all right, let's go to the bar over here. We'll get burgers and stuff. So we go in and they were like, Oh, it's a 45-minute wait. Oh, it was during like the Ryder Cup. So like everything over here was like super packed. So we're like, okay, no big deal, we'll stand at the bar. And you know how like when like at a at a bar, pub, pub, restaurant type of thing, like there's always like four or five tables by the bar, but they're not part of the tables that like you wait for to sit down and eat. Okay. So there's people yeah, like the high tables. So there's people sitting at all of them. So we're standing at the bar, we're getting a drink, whatever. And then the people behind us at a high table, like three people get up. They get up and they leave. So I'm like, oh, I might go extra waitress if we could sit here instead. Like, will they serve us food here instead of like waiting 45 minutes? So this is like a whole six-minute ordeal. They get up, somebody comes and cleans the tables off. I go and stand next to the table to kind of like, you know, claim the table. Mike goes over to the hostess. She's like, Yeah, of course, sit there, no problem. I'll bring you a menu. She goes and gets menus. We sit down, she comes over, gives us menus, asks us. Uh, she was just like, Oh, just tell the guy at the bar when you're ready. Like, he'll take the order. We're like, okay, no problem. 12 seconds. All of a sudden, some lady comes over to the table and she's like, Did you guys like want to sit at a high table? So I'm like, What? Like, I'm more confused. And she's like, We're like so hungry, and we've been waiting like so long for a table. But like, if you wanted this table, you like it's fine. But if like if you didn't want a high table, like she wasn't saying get up, but she wasn't not saying get up. Okay, but why would she ask you, did you want a high table? Exactly. I don't know. So now I'm not thinking anything of it. We're like, literally, it took us seven minutes to sit at this table. Where were you this whole time? You were at the end of the bar that was empty. Like you were sitting at the bar. Okay, so it was like her, a guy, and like another couple. So we're like, Mike's like, yeah, whatever, you can take the table. I don't care. I'm not that hungry. Like, I'll wait another. Oh, wait. No. So now I feel bad. And I'm like, okay, yeah, of course, sit down. So she's like, oh my God, thank you so much. Blah, blah. Waving at her friends to come over. They sit down. So we get up. So as we're getting up, there's a girl, another girl at the bar with her boyfriend, husband, whatever. And she's just like looking at me and she's like, What the fuck? Like, what the fuck was that? And I'm like, I don't know. So I walk over to the hostess who's also looking at me like, What the fuck just happened? And I'm like, hey, put us back on the list because like we need a table. So she's like, Yeah, no problem. My table just opens up right now. So I'm like, okay. So then the guy's like telling me, Mike, oh, thank you so much. That was so good of you. I, you know, you're great. I'm gonna buy you a drink. Mike's like, I don't want anything. He's like, Oh, I'll find your table. Mike's like, uh, just don't worry about it. The guy's like, No, no, no, I'll buy you a drink. Mike's like, fine. So I'm like, then the girl starts telling me, like, do you guys want to hang out with us? Like, we're really fun. You can sit here, and I'm like, No, I'm okay. So then I tell the hostess, I'm like, just take me to my seat, and then you could tell him, like, tell Mike where the table is after. I'm not standing here anymore. So I sit down, Mike comes over, and I'm like, Am I supposed to be mad about this? Like, I feel like now I should be mad. Like, why do they like really tell us to get up? Like, everyone knows those tables are up for grabs.

Speaker 1:

Let me ask you a question. Do you you're questioning this very clearly? I want you to envision that it's not Mike, but it's you and I. Do you think it was so bizarre? We'd have the same outcome.

Speaker:

No.

Speaker 1:

That's why I would have been like, what are you asking? Do you want to see because you're not getting it?

Speaker:

So now when we sit down, all of these things are coming to my mind. I'm like, why didn't I say to her, You literally saw this table open for six minutes before we sat down. You waited for us to sit down and say something. Why didn't you go over to the hostess and ask her when there's a table? Because the second that you guys sat down, the girl was like, I got a table for you.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I think I would have just been like, Yeah, I don't mind if it's a high table or a low table. I'm hungry too.

Speaker:

It was we were just like, What? I didn't even know what to say. And then I'm telling you, we sat there and as we're eating the whole time, I'm like, Am I supposed to be mad about this? Like, I feel like now I should be mad. And he's like, He's like, I've never had that happen before. And I'm like, I could see if she was like pregnant or like had little kids and she was like, Listen, we're starving, the kids are screaming. I would have been like, take the table. But now, like, after what I was thinking, I'm like, and why was she asking us to hang out with her? Do you think that we want to hang out with you after you took our table from us? That's crazy. Yeah. And then as we were leaving, I was like, I can't even look at them because I'd want to go over and say something. But then I'm like, here's where they're like parents from like the school that we're in or something, and then I see them somewhere. Like, I can't.

Speaker 1:

Just ignore that.

Speaker:

It was so bizarre. I would have been pissed. Could you imagine?

Speaker 1:

I would not. I'm I wouldn't even let it get that far. Not with not if I'm hungry. Are you kidding?

Speaker:

No, I know you would have never. It would have never flew with you. You would have already ordered before you put your seat, your buttons.

Speaker 1:

Like, let me put this in with the bartender. You can clean the table. I don't care.

Speaker:

Hey bartender, that table looks like it's gonna be available. I'll take some food to it right now. Get my order in now. I'm not waiting any longer.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's Long Island for you, I guess. Yeah, it was it was pretty interesting. I haven't gone out in a long time, except for obviously the trip. And like trying to hang out at home, and now I'm getting a little stir crazy. So I'm like, eh.

unknown:

I need to.

Speaker:

But it's like getting so dark out so early. I want nothing to do with even going out.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but you know what? I read that for women, you need to have like every 22 days, like a girls' night or like a girls like hangout or whatever. It's bothering me. Um, and I want to be more thoughtful about that. I'm totally down for that. Put it in the calendars, like, all right, dinner, dinner night, like something, even if it's like in a day and it's like a freaking museum. I don't care. You know, you're definitely not going to a museum. I know. You're uh you're not that cultured. I love museums. I'll go with my sister. Um I'll catch you after for like. Yeah, we can go shopping. A little shopping. Yeah, we can go shopping like up north, I think, which is nice. Yeah. You love TJ Maxx. The best TJ Maxx is like in Westchester. Yes, let's go. I'm down.

Speaker:

So we could do that. Um's funny, this stupid storm that we're having that's really not even doing anything. Uh, we were gonna go upstate this weekend, and I was like, Oh, I'll see if Jen and Rhett want to go. We would have left like early this morning and then came home yesterday afternoon, and then I was like, it's gonna rain the entire time, so it's gonna be so pointless to sit in the house in the rain.

Speaker 1:

I wanted to do something this weekend, then I saw the storm coming, and I was like, oh, that's done. And I was just more mad because last weekend was literally the last beach weekend, and I did go both days. Thank god. I would have been so miserable if I missed the last two beach days of the you know of the year here. Yeah, no, it was super nice out last weekend. Did you close the pool yet?

Speaker:

Yeah, that's really sad. I know, but last weekend I was like, I wish we didn't close the pool up already, or I would have definitely gone in. It was so hot out.

Speaker 1:

Oh my god, I was at the beach and it was so hot, and then it went to freezing like so quick. Next day.

Speaker:

It's crazy.

Speaker 1:

Well, what are you doing for your birthday? What are we doing for your birthday? I don't know. Can we do dinner? Okay. Like, or do you want to do like a Halloween thing? Like what? Well, I'm going to a party. I go to a party every single year, and it is this year on a Thursday. So I know that's a little inconvenient, but you're working from home on Friday, right? Mm-hmm. Where's the party? It's in L I C. You can do that. Um, but we could also do some like Lily wants to throw a party on Friday. Oh boy. Yeah. And I'm like, is the wait, when is when is your let me look at when you're back.

Speaker:

My birthday's on a Monday. Halloween is on a Friday.

Speaker 1:

So Lily wants to throw a party the weekend before Halloween, actually. And I'm like, I don't think so. Your friends are all throwing parties, they go to their parties. I don't feel like dealing with that last year's. Yeah no, but totally done with that. Um, but for this party that I'm talking about, I think it's on the 30th.

Speaker:

The day before Halloween.

Speaker 1:

Halloween is on yep, the day before Halloween. So think about it. Maybe you gotta bring a bottle of booze, and that's it. Think about it. It's like the best time. I've gone for the last I don't even know how many years. What are you dressing up as? I don't know. I usually just do whatever's in my closet on like I have so many random things. You know, I have like strange I can pull something together with what I own, but um I don't know yet. I saw this cute costume on TikTok or something, and it was newsflash and it was a trench coat, and then this chick just like I was like, that's so smart, and I'd be like, Newsflash.

Speaker:

I feel like when I'm scrolling on TikTok lately, like I'm scrolling on QVC. Every other video is like somebody selling something, or like they have a blow-up Halloween arch in front of their house, and they're like trying to sell it, and then I go to the next one, and it's like they're selling these little tiny Christmas trees that light up that are solar powered for the front of your house, like craziest stuff ever. Close, close, close, close. I have to. I'm like, this is insane. Like, all I want to do is watch nonsense. I want to like watch someone do their makeup, I want to watch someone like unbox their Costco order. Like, I just want to watch complete nonsense. I don't want to look at you selling shit.

Speaker 1:

So different from mine. So, like, I also get like a bunch of stuff to sell that they're selling, but I I just skip it really quickly. Yeah, me too. My algorithm specifically is all about astrology and like the occult and like all that the shit you know that I love. And yours, I can only imagine every fucking face lotion, lip stain, eye shadow that you can imagine. I like I sound crazy.

Speaker:

Sometimes mine has like some weird random shit. Like, I was on grief talk for like three days. Oh, I've done that. It was fucking awful. I was literally crying on the couch one night. Mike's like, what are you watching? I'm like, I have no idea how I landed on grief talk, but this is the saddest thing ever. Every time I swiped, it was another one, and then another one, and then it sucks me in because I'm reading it now, reading the 3,000 comments that are there that are making it even worse. I'm like, how do I get off of here? I had to like shut it off for two days. I was like, I can't do it.

Speaker 1:

I know I had to FaceTime my sister this morning. She works as a bartender, so I have to wait till she wakes up. So I know she's awake when she likes likes something that I sent her. So I FaceTime her and I was like, I just want to let you know that the last video I watched last night was of the woman that she sent me, was of a woman describing how a serial killer captured her and cut both of her arms off while she was.

Speaker:

See, why is this not online?

Speaker 1:

That's what I would watch. And I was like, What the fuck? And then I went to sleep. So my nightmares were like literally me running away from like or preventing myself from getting my arms cut off. And then I was just like, This is not normal. Like, I can't, this is what my sister sends me, and then I watch and then I go to sleep.

Speaker:

I don't have any serial killers on my TikTok, and I wish I did. Okay, well then I'll send it to you. Please. Because it'll get me on serial killer TikTok. Yeah, it's pretty bad. Although I did post a video the other day, and somebody named Freddie Krueger, who his whole their whole page is dedicated to Freddie Kruger, commented and said that they would stalk me.

Speaker 1:

Ew, I don't like that. Are you fucking kidding? No. I don't think it's so scary. There's this woman on the internet. Their comment was like, I'd stalk you. And I went, wow, thanks for the question. She can find based off of like a paint color in your kitchen, a tile or um, like just like the shingles on the outside of your house. She can find where you live. Like, I don't know if you've seen these videos. Of course. I don't post the outside of my house. It's just incredible that it's like neither do some people, where they're like, try and do me. And the way that she does it is that she sees who is tagged in a picture and goes to their page and then their it's absolutely insane.

Speaker:

Well, how do you think we've used to find information out about guys?

Speaker 1:

We are, but like she's making money off of it. So we're in the wrong business. I know. Well, according to my TikTok, your Jupiter is where you make like whatever is sign, whatever sun is in your Jupiter is how you make your money. And mine is is Sagittarius. And apparently, I would do really well in like the railway industry or something like that, like trains and travel.

Speaker:

And I was like, Oh, planes, trains, and automobiles. Pretty much.

Speaker 1:

No. I was like, what the fuck? That doesn't sound appealing to me.

Speaker:

So that's not what I thought was going to happen.

Speaker 1:

Oh, but you know what you would like? So recently, two, three days ago, I went down the rabbit hole of what how you die based on your astrological chart.

Speaker:

Oh, that that I don't want to know.

Speaker 1:

See, that I don't do. See, that really fucked me up. It's your eighth house. And I was like, Oh, I'm not happy with no reading. I was like, That's where I draw the line. So if that pops up on my TikTok, I'm gonna be a little pissed off. I was telling my sister, I'm like, oh, this is what's gonna happen. And she was like, I don't want to fucking talk about it anymore.

Speaker:

No, I I draw the line with things like that. Yeah, it's bad. No, but a good serial killer, send in my way. Well, there's the new Ed Gun.

Speaker 1:

You watched it already. Did you watch it? No. Well, the reason why I haven't watched it yet because I didn't like his voice. Oh my god, the voice is so annoying.

Speaker:

Yeah, what is that about? Oh my god, it's awful. But also, it's like way too many episodes. It could have definitely been like three episodes less than what it is. I finished it today. Oh, really? I was I've been watching um White Lotus. You never watched it?

Speaker 1:

No, I never watched it, and I watched season three on the flight to Italy and back, and then I was like, oh, okay, this is cool. And then I started season one.

Speaker:

Season one, I loved. I loved all of them actually. But so I got I got Mike sucked in on this one, season three. Yeah, I watched it. He was like, What is the show about? And I'm like, I don't know. Like, there's no point to it. And he's like, What do you mean there's no point? Like, is it a reality show? And I'm like, No, he's like, then what type of show it is it? I'm like, I can't even explain what kind of show it is. Like, there's actually no plot, and there's no literal point to the show.

Speaker 1:

If everybody that goes to that kind of hotel has some kind of money, you know, right?

Speaker:

But there's literally no plot and no point to anything, like no, but it somehow sucks you in where you cannot stop. And Mike was like sucked in. Yeah, he watched every episode.

Speaker 1:

I didn't watch the last episode of season one, actually. I think I'm gonna do that tonight while I try and put my clothes away.

Speaker:

Yeah, season one. I love Jennifer Cooling, right? That's her name, Jennifer Cooling. She's so funny, it's hilarious. She crashed, I don't know what she tries to be. I feel like that's no, I just think that's her. Like I I just want to be that. Like, I just I can't. It's so funny.

Speaker 1:

Owns a lot. Oh, okay.

Speaker:

Season two, I think, is when they're in Italy.

Speaker 1:

Oh, yeah.

Speaker:

Yeah, season two is wait, is it three seasons or four?

Speaker 1:

I think there's three. The first one is Hawaii, the third one is Thailand, and oh yeah, second one is in Italy. All right.

Speaker:

That's pretty funny. Yeah, I'm gonna have to start that one. Yeah, you have to watch that. Now I need to know what you're gonna think of it. I actually want to watch season one and two again.

Speaker 1:

I did like three the best so far though. I don't know why. I liked it because of the the dad was so insane. I was just like, what the fuck? This is nonsense.

Speaker:

That was pretty wild to watch on a plane though, not for nothing, because there are some weird fucking scenes in that.

Speaker 1:

I know. Well, Rhett and I didn't sit next to anybody. We got very lucky on both flights. Oh, yeah, you had the middle one open? Yeah, on the way. Perfect. Yeah, on the way back, we just had two seats. Oh, okay. We were next to each other.

Speaker:

On our way there, we had no one in between us. On the way home, we had someone in between us, but then we had the stewardess move them to an empty seat, so we had no one in between us. That's good. Both ways.

Speaker 1:

So I always sit in the aisle, like I refuse to sit next to the window. Oh, I'd rather sit in a window. So Retta's and I'm like, that's why it's not terrible that when we travel together, we there's like no denying. Like I sit in the aisle, he sits in the window. Well, actually, Mike likes the window, but so do I, but he always gets it to me.

Speaker:

Oh, really? Unless, unless like we're going to Florida or some Florida or something, and there's somebody in between us, then I'll take the aisle. Or actually, I'll just go in the middle. Yeah, I've I that he could have the window.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you can't make a big guy sit in the middle. No, you're very lucky for the most part. I just like to get up a lot. I'm like really getting up hour after hour. I'm up, like, because I cannot sit there. I hate it.

Speaker:

Coming home from Italy, I only like I didn't go to the bathroom at all, but I got up like maybe once, like just to stand up and stretch. Mike was like, just get up.

Speaker 1:

I'm gonna be like four fucking times. I literally cannot. That is like the longest flight. I hate it. I mean, like, and I don't even know why I'm complaining. I've gone across the world, but I just hate it. It's almost like giving birth to a child, in a sense, because like we don't remember how much that sucks because the outcome is so amazing. Like, you go somewhere that you want to be home.

Speaker:

Yeah, but we were what coming home, I felt like was an easier flight for me. Like, I was just so tired. Fucking hate it.

Speaker 1:

Went pretty quick for me coming home. I can't sit for longer than three hours without losing my mind, whether it's on a plane or in a car.

Speaker:

What was I watching on the way home? Sex in the city. Most of it. My daughter. And then I cried at the exact same spots that I always cry at.

Speaker 1:

Oh my god. I don't think I've ever watched that show in full. I watched a couple episodes with Lily, and I was like, this is so fucking inappropriate for a 15 year old. You cannot be watching this.

Speaker:

Yeah, no. Be watching that.

Speaker 1:

I can't believe you haven't watched it from the beginning to the end. Oh, I watched vampire diaries from the beginning to the end. And um two totally different shows. I know, but that's what I'm trying to that's the juxtaposition or whatever you call it. Like I like that kind of stuff, not sex and city. Or The Walking Dead. I watch every single episode. I never watched The Walking Dead.

Speaker:

Yeah, and if you want a show where you'd be invested, I feel like I tried watching it, I didn't get into it.

Speaker 1:

Because it's the storyline too. Yeah. Juicy in the beginning. Because they she thinks her husband's dead, she hooks up with someone else. He's actually alive. She's pregnant with another guy's beat. Like it's it's juicy.

Speaker:

Yeah, I can't get into that. Uh, give me a good love is blonde, and I'll watch it.

Speaker 1:

Oh, I have not watched that yet, but I I've watched that, but I haven't watched the latest season.

Speaker:

Oh, it's awful. The new season is awful. Let me tell you one one tidbit of it. They're at the part where they just move in together, like they have to like live with each other. And the guy is like, Oh, I'm gonna make like a protein shake. He takes a fucking cooked chicken breast. No, throws it in a blender with water and adds crystal white to it for a little flavor, blends it up and drinks it.

Speaker 1:

Literally have goosebumps all over. I would have immediately been like, I'm done. I know it's gonna make you throw up, so I'm not gonna do it, but I'm that's disgusting, and you can you're done with telling me more because that's that would be an immediate you are not.

Speaker:

I would have been like, get me off the show. My done. Done before he even took a sip, it would have been fucking over. If I would have seen what was going in that blender, it's over. Oh gross. We're done. You ain't kissing my fucking lips after drinking that shit.

Speaker 1:

That's nasty. I couldn't do that. Well, thanks for saving my time. I'm not gonna watch that.

Speaker:

Yeah, just skip that episode. But it is the worst season by far so far.

Speaker 1:

I only watched the Megan Fox season.

Speaker:

Oh my god, do you remember that girl? Yeah, that's the only season I ever watched. Did you imagine saying that you look like Megan Fox? She was very pretty, though. She was very pretty, but could you fucking imagine telling someone you look like Megan Fox?

Speaker 1:

Like, that's such a crazy thing to say when you don't necessarily have like anything but very similar eyebrows, and that's like the facial ex facial.

Speaker:

Yes, like you just told this guy through a wall who has not seen you, who's dying to know you look like that. You look like Megan Fox. He was so excited in that moment.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but you know what? He was dumb, that guy.

Speaker:

Oh, he was awful.

Speaker 1:

I don't even remember Zine.

Speaker:

It was a long time ago. Yeah, I don't remember either, but I just I think that'll go down in like top five of Love is Born History. Like that was just crazy. The poor girl got like a lot of hate for that too, though.

Speaker 1:

Who that I know she did, she did, but but I want to watch that serial killer one, probably start that tonight. And then I started this other one, a haunting or whatever, in a college in upstate New York, Janesseo. No, I didn't see that. Yeah, I started watching that one yesterday. Is it good? You know what? I feel like it could have been like one freaking episode, and like that's it, but it's like the next episode and the next episode, and it's kind of annoying. Yeah.

Speaker:

Well, the Ed Jean thing gets really annoying because his voice is like. Is that how you pronounce it?

Speaker 1:

I can say, I don't know his name.

Speaker:

I think it's Gene. Okay, I'm gonna Google it. Ugh, the voiceless killer, especially like what he does, and then he talks with that voice, it makes it ten times worse.

Speaker 1:

I know some girl had mentioned on TikTok, she's like, I felt bad for him, and I was crying for him even though he was doing all these like murders, and I I didn't want to like, yeah, I was like, that sounds weird. Yeah, that's a little odd. I didn't watch it, I know nothing about it.

Speaker:

So it's like I mean, I definitely didn't think anyone should cry about it.

Speaker 1:

That's just me. About him, right? Like to feel bad for him. Yeah. I think that's says more about the chick than anything else. I mean, that's just like an interesting way to look at it. I don't know. Mm-hmm. So we're back. We'll be more regular with our episodes. Yes.

Speaker:

We're gonna make it a point to do it more regularly.

Speaker 1:

Make our own our appointments to do it.

Speaker:

Especially now that like summer's over, we're done with like all our last minute random soaking up the last days of summer type stuff. All right, so like us, follow us, send us some love. And we'll catch you next week, or actually we'll catch you in two weeks. All right, all right, bye. Bye.
