So, do you want me to tell you what I watched this week? What are your thoughts on nickelback? Oh, my mom was obsessed with them. We had their CD in the car. Oh, yeah. I loved I loved nickelback. Like I that was a line wire just give me everything kind of deal. I mean, there were there were plenty of songs that I wasn't like woo-hoo about, but the ones of of their music that I was just obsessed with, I was obsessed with. And I vaguely do remember like the world hating nickel back, or just maybe not that extreme. I just remember there being some rough feedback, maybe, but I never knew how badly they were actually hated. So I watched Did you watch a documentary? I did. Netflix dropped it either. Crazy. How many documentaries they they apparently have picked up on the fact that I'm all about a documentary right now because it's like every single row is like because you watch this, all these documentaries. My here's my thing though. Netflix needs to figure out how to get the ones I've already watched out of there because I'll go to watch something that I forgot that I watched, and I'm like, I know this. And then I have to go in and be like removed from my continue watching list. Cut that crap. I like the ones that have episodes because then I can go in and be like, view more and look for the red bar on the side. Did I watch this already? Because my memory stinks and I don't remember well. So anyway, but my point being, so for the last like week and a half, I've been on a severe Shania Twain kick, like heavy hardcore, just letting everything by her play on hard repeat on my Spotify. And then I was like, okay, I think that I'm ready to move on to it's nickelback right now. And it it kind of has been because of watching that documentary in a way, but I mean I never there's never a day that they they don't like fit my mood. Like I love it from just the power riffs to just I love his voice. Like he has a very unique voice, but to learn so much about like their story, and then to find out really and truly how hated they were, and it just huh. It's part of it is because they were basically called these are my words, not theirs, but just like generic and like in their sound and their lyrics and some other shit. But the main lead seeker, I can't think of his name right in the second, but he's written the majority of their music, and he is an incredible songwriter. Like, if there's some stuff, if you just stop long enough to actually listen to the words of it, it it'll make you stop and think, and like I mean some of it's very poignantly written. Yeah, some of it's like you were kind of reaching, but okay. There's music like that out there everywhere. But anyway, it just it was interesting, it was worth watching, truthfully. But then it was like I would kill to go back and see them. I mean, they were talking about some of their their concerts and like how elaborate they were, and like they joined a music label that was mainly like metal music, and they were the only group at this label that wasn't so they were already kind of like not liked by their peers within the label, but truthfully, they were the ones keeping the lights on. They had their moments that they weren't doing so hot, they talk about that too. But um anyway, that was that was a really cool yeah documentary series to watch. Do you want to know? Like this is within two days of what I have watched in two days. It's pretty sad actually, how much I've watched. But okay, granted, yesterday I got to work at seven, a little after seven, left at like four thirty. Today I got to work at five forty, left at about four. So that's a long time. Okay. Yesterday I watched one episode of Chicago PD. Love Chicago PD. I watched two episodes of Big Brother, the season finale of The Mast Singer, an episode of the challenge, and then last night. Now, this was when I was at home, I watched the American Auto episode from last night. Today, though, I got a lot in there today. Today I watched three episodes of Big Brother. I watched the hunting party from last week. I watched an episode of 911 and an episode of 911 Nashville, Crazy Anatomy, Beverly Hills 90210, Law and Order, Law and Order SVU, The OC, The Voice Tonight, and Dawson's Creek tonight. That's a full day's work right now. It is, it is, and it's like a wide range of stuff. It's like reality competition, reality life. Right. Early 2000s to current TV. I'm all over the place. Yeah. I mean I watched the one that they just dropped on Netflix about Lamar Odom. Oh, I've seen. I mean, I haven't watched it, but I know what you're talking about. You know what drops this Friday? The Laguna Beach Reunion. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm ready. Have you watched Hannah Montana anniversary yet? Mm-mm. I haven't either. I didn't know anything about it, but I'm sure it's probably on Hulu, which I don't. It is on Hulu. I've heard mixed things. I mean, like I've heard some people who it was so nostalgic and they like cried, but then some people were disappointed because it wasn't what they wanted it to be. Anyways, I don't know. I haven't yet. I will, but I just haven't yet. Well, let me know what you think. I will. I'm not in a rush, but eventually I will. But tomorrow, another 10-hour day. I think that my Amazon Prime is probably concerned for like, am I still living? At least the video I've been on there. Yeah, I haven't been on there in a while. Somehow the Netflix has figured out an algorithm that caters to you at this moment. Yeah. Um I'm eventually gonna start re-watching Vampire Diaries. Yes. I did, I've watched a couple of other movies recently. Um one was I feel like I've watched a really new one. I've watched several, but I'm I'm drawing a blink on a couple. I watched one that had Cat Williams in it. It was hilarious. Um and then I watched one from I I think it was from 1997 today. That I think it was called Money Talks. And it was humors that had Charlie Sheen in it. Um seeing some of the oh gosh, it got to the point of the credits that had the stunt dummies list. I mean, that took up the whole screen of all the names, and I was just like, my god. Seeing the um it cracks me up. You know, back then a lot of stuff had to be done for real. Versus now there's so much AI editing and all that that I can appreciate the intensely insane driving scenes where I mean straight up stunt drivers had to make that happen. I just listened to a podcast episode, it was the One Chicago podcast, um, and they had their stunt coordinators on and for like fire and PD. Actually, one of them might have been mid, but anyways, just talking about how what it used to, because it's a father and son and what the father used to do versus how they can do it now. Like right, there used to be stunts where they were literally falling from multi-stories. Now it's like a green screen and it's not that high up, but you're lent, it's just crazy. They still do on those shows, is I can only speak because I was listening to that episode, but they still do a lot of like driving scenes, but it's still different than what it used to be. I just wish that when I was growing up, I knew all the different jobs available out there. Do I probably still would have ended up being a teacher, but I guess it's just blows my mind. Like it's not just I mean, growing up, small southern town, all my mind was was like actor. You know what I mean? Like, not even all the other things that it takes to make something, right? I get that. Because I would love nothing more than to be a part of a set. Oh shit. Not in front of the camera, but just like in some capacity. Oh my gosh, I love it. I love it. Speaking of in two weeks, this time in two weeks, I will be in Boston, Massachusetts. I know, I'm excited for a little fun surprise that I cannot wait. But I'm not talking about it yet. Because I'm holding out hope. We're praying about it. Yes, we are. But you know what? I've decided when the time comes, I'll share about it. Yeah. But it's an experience. I was just about to say the experience that you're about to gain, whether it goes one way or the other, is gonna be you cannot get it anywhere else. And it's not something that can be recreated on a whim at any other point. So I'm so excited for you. It's just randomly within 24 hours, books an entire trip. I would if I could. I I I was gonna invite you. But I'm it's the year of the what if and why not? And just do it. But I I need the finances to support some of that. Oh, because that's my hamper right now. Same
