The Hills We’re Dying on (but it’s not THAT deep)

Everyone has a hill they're willing to die on, and in this episode we're sharing ours. From lighthearted hot takes and pop culture opinions to a few surprisingly serious convictions, we're debating the beliefs we stand by no matter what. Some will make you laugh, some might make you think, and a few may have you yelling at your speakers—but it's all in good fun. Where do you stand?

SPEAKER_01 0:09

Hi Heather.

SPEAKER_00 0:10

Hi Dina.

SPEAKER_01 0:10

How are you?

SPEAKER_00 0:11

I'm good. How are you?

SPEAKER_01 0:12

I'm good.

SPEAKER_00 0:13

Good. Roland with the homies. Rollin' with the homies. What is that from?

SPEAKER_01 0:18

Clueless. Rolling with the homies.

SPEAKER_00 0:21

For a minute I thought it was from Can't Hardly Wait. Do you remember that movie too?

SPEAKER_01 0:24

Yeah. No. Okay. I probably watched Clueless like 35 times.

SPEAKER_00 0:28

I'm trying to think what age I feel like my kids could probably watch. Mm-hmm. We just showed her Legally Blonde. I'm like one of those parents who's like, not too much garbage. But like I forgot. I hate it. I know who showed that to Ava. Right?

SPEAKER_01 0:42

I should show, but she hates movies.

SPEAKER_00 0:43

I mean, good luck with all that.

SPEAKER_01 0:45

But I gotta show her Clueless.

SPEAKER_00 0:46

They did like Legally Blonde. It's just super cute.

SPEAKER_01 0:48

I own Clueless.

SPEAKER_00 0:49

Yeah, I mean, it's just like a fun. Yeah. Coming of not coming of age, but I feel like it's like a it's a rite of passage.

SPEAKER_01 0:55

Yes. Okay. Good.

SPEAKER_00 0:57

I mean, try to show her and then report back.

SPEAKER_01 0:58

I'm gonna try.

SPEAKER_00 0:59

Show the on her phone the whole time.

SPEAKER_01 1:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:01

Just brace yourself.

SPEAKER_01 1:02

That's saying how cringy everything is.

SPEAKER_00 1:05

Why is she wearing that plaid outfit?

SPEAKER_01 1:07

Right.

SPEAKER_00 1:08

Um I think we've already talked off camera and at length about what Michigan looks like right now. But like we're in the middle of smoky wildfires. We are not, thankfully not in our area, and extreme heat and rocket diarrhea, Salon. It's super fun time. It's a good time to be in the mitten. And you don't know how amazing it is that we pushed ourselves to record this today. Right. We're fighting all kinds of battles.

SPEAKER_01 1:36

Welcome.

SPEAKER_00 1:38

It just shows what what troopers we are. You're welcome. That we're outside of our homes fighting through the environments trying to kill us, the salads trying to kill us, everything.

SPEAKER_01 1:49

So we're gonna keep it all the opposition. We're gonna keep it funny today. Light and light. These are harmless, harmless hills we will die on.

SPEAKER_00 1:58

I mine are harmless.

SPEAKER_01 1:59

Some of mine are not harmless.

SPEAKER_00 2:01

Really low-stakes declarations. But I was gonna say, if I had to guess, some of yours might get controversial.

SPEAKER_01 2:07

Some of mine probably.

SPEAKER_00 2:08

I mean, I feel like episode two of this thing, you told everybody that oregano doesn't belong in so much.

SPEAKER_01 2:13

I almost put that on again.

SPEAKER_00 2:14

We're like afraid to even put the episode live because we thought we were offending so many people off. Yes. Which truly we might have.

SPEAKER_01 2:22

Right.

SPEAKER_00 2:22

You might have.

SPEAKER_01 2:23

I might have. But listen, that's to say, we, I will preface by saying, you and I, I can comfortably say, have a lot of strong opinions. Sure. About a lot of things. About most everything.

SPEAKER_00 2:36

Yeah, to share them.

SPEAKER_01 2:37

However, opinions are like, you know, other things on your body that we all have.

SPEAKER_00 2:42

Everybody's got one.

SPEAKER_01 2:43

Everybody's got one. And they don't always need to be shown or heard. Um, so yeah, we're keeping it light today. So don't think that these are the only opinions that we have.

SPEAKER_00 2:51

This is definitely not. We have so many opinions. Definitely not anything I don't think that's gonna cause any great debate. This is just like what silly. Right?

SPEAKER_01 2:59

But things we are passionate about and we will die on these hills.

SPEAKER_00 3:03

I will die on this hill. Yes. Ready? I'm gonna start you off strong. You're not even gonna like this one. Pineapple does belong on pizza. It's amazing on there. It's the ultimate sweet, savory combination. I know. I know you're gonna immediately have an issue with it.

SPEAKER_01 3:16

Wow, I can't even wow. It belongs. So disagree.

SPEAKER_00 3:28

When you texted that salty. When you texted that to me, because we were talking about something I was like giving you an example of some how low stakes.

SPEAKER_01 3:35

I thought it was a typo.

SPEAKER_00 3:36

No, what did you think I was trying to say? Kind of apple.

SPEAKER_01 3:40

Do not.

SPEAKER_00 3:40

Oh no, taking the opposite stance here.

SPEAKER_01 3:43

Alright.

SPEAKER_00 3:43

It's amazing. I love it.

SPEAKER_01 3:44

I won't yuck someone's yum. Yeah, don't yuck somebody's yums, but do not think it belongs, but I won't yuck your yum.

SPEAKER_00 3:50

I understand. But also, did you do not think it belongs because of some kind of like cultural standpoint or like the purity of pizza in its most natural form? Because I feel like, yeah, nobody cares about that anymore. We're putting barbecue chicken on pizza.

SPEAKER_01 4:02

No, no, because I love barbecue chicken on pizza and barbecue sauce.

SPEAKER_00 4:05

Yeah, so I it's not So what is it? What is the pineapple on it?

SPEAKER_01 4:08

I just think it's gross.

SPEAKER_00 4:08

Okay, that's fair.

SPEAKER_01 4:09

I wasn't taking any harsh stance.

SPEAKER_00 4:11

I was gonna say, in defense of pineapple on pizza, one of my favorite sushi rolls from one of our favorite local sushi. Sushi has pizza. Has a little piece of kiwi in it. And it is amazing. I agree. In a million years, if you told me what doesn't belong in sushi, I would be like fruit. Kiwi sounds gross. Like a banana sounds worse. But I'm saying there's just something about it.

SPEAKER_01 4:32

Bananas and ranch taste really good.

SPEAKER_00 4:33

Oh, gross. Try it right.

SPEAKER_01 4:35

Try it. Sorry. Okay. Gross. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 4:38

As if that couldn't any world be less offensive than pineapple with bacon on a pizza. Mind-blowing to me. Um, but go ahead and offend me with your next one. I'll give you that one.

SPEAKER_01 4:49

Okay, this one is probably one of my ones that it is not as light, but I'd like to start off by saying this is a hill I will die on.

SPEAKER_00 4:57

Alright.

SPEAKER_01 4:58

If you, as a grown adult, are not able to A, scroll away when you see something that you don't like, but better yet, B prove a point without name calling, you're a coward.

unknown 5:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 5:15

And that's a hill I will die on.

SPEAKER_00 5:16

I was gonna say, anything like currently that brought that to mind?

SPEAKER_01 5:20

So we had a reel that really triggered men. Yeah. And it was oddly enough, a reel about us choosing a bear over a man in the woods.

SPEAKER_00 5:32

We understand it's a silly conversation, but if you watch the whole reel, we're laughing and talking about it.

SPEAKER_01 5:36

We are laughing.

SPEAKER_00 5:37

Talking to a bear in the woods. Like, of course, the whole thing was silliness.

SPEAKER_01 5:41

Silliness. In about 56 seconds. So that was all the context that you got. Right. Um, but and we had some people that gave opinions and we were like, that's great. Thank you for this. We got it. You know, engagement. We we were called some pretty offensive names.

SPEAKER_00 5:56

Yeah, we just hid those comments because, like, honestly.

SPEAKER_01 5:58

The people could lose their jobs over, frankly, if I wanted to make that public. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 6:04

Oh, I don't know what you're talking about.

SPEAKER_01 6:06

One of the names we were called, if we reported that.

SPEAKER_00 6:08

Oh, okay, okay. It's pretty politically it's just so crazy to me that you would watch anything for 45 seconds and be that fired up about it that you had to personally engage with anybody. Yeah. I don't mean I don't leave comments on anybody's anything. No. Unless I'm like, great recipe, thanks, Barb, like whatever. But uh, whew, yeah. And like, whatever. I we had the whole conversation. Like, do you hide them? Do you delete them? What's the right course? To me, I'm not gonna like drive anybody to our social media and then have them be Yeah, it was so offensive. So offensive. It was very offensive. So again, you're allowed to have strong opinions. Of course. Here we are. We're here for it. You can say them without profanity or name-calling.

SPEAKER_01 6:48

Name-calling and name-calling things that are just it was we have to talk off camera. No, that the one the one name we were called wasn't even I mean, it was so derogatory that yeah, all right. So that's a hill I'll die on.

SPEAKER_00 7:02

We're still here.

SPEAKER_01 7:02

Yeah. Uh respectfully disagree, bring up points. You can even get a little aggressive. I'm alright with that personally, but name calling.

SPEAKER_00 7:10

Yeah, you just not cool. It's not about ideas anymore. Die on that little hill. I mean, that's not a little hill. You started, we went from like pineapple, but very top of mind. Okay, do you have any food-related ones? I do. I'm just teasing. Um, okay, this one might be offensive, but because we just talked about it. Please don't hate us. Okay. It's just my opinion. When couples share a social media account, confusing. It's I'm not even gonna say it's wrong. I just am genuinely confusing. Yeah. And I think that's partly because I don't know who I'm talking to. I don't know who I'm talking to. I don't know who's responding or liking or whatever. But also I think because me and my husband are so wildly different in the arena of social media. Like his feed is all like guys putting stuff together. I don't even know in soccer. And like the thought of me going into his like in our shared Instagram and watching his reels or something to me is wild times. We use it so differently. And then, yeah, it's just wild to me. Yeah, I feel like I got it a long time ago when everything was fresh, and you're like, oh, maybe we'll make an account, we'll just share one, whatever. But like, I'm like, now is that working? I just I feel like I need these people to call me and tell me how it works.

SPEAKER_01 8:27

Yeah, I want to be curious.

SPEAKER_00 8:29

I'm my statement was like that. It's weird. Like, I don't want to be mean. Yeah, it's weird to me because I can't see.

SPEAKER_01 8:37

Ryan would never want to share mine because I'm bananas, but hey, to each their own.

SPEAKER_00 8:44

Yeah, if it works for you, cool. I need you to just tell me really quickly how it works. Let us know. Because I just think it's so wild. And I am unsure and like who's who's on it today, right? And there's been like multiple couples in my life where I'm just like, okay, cool. I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 8:57

Yeah. Did you want me to send you that like cool bra I found? Or who am I talking to?

SPEAKER_00 9:04

Maybe not. Yeah, I don't know. It's just it's wild. I'm gonna use the word wild. Wild to me.

SPEAKER_01 9:09

Alright.

SPEAKER_00 9:10

All right, that's pre-low stakes.

SPEAKER_01 9:11

I'll go in with another, I'll go well, not another. I'll go in with a low stake one.

SPEAKER_00 9:15

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 9:16

Chicken cutlets over protein bars.

SPEAKER_00 9:18

Oh, yeah, I love this.

SPEAKER_01 9:20

Chicken cutlets over protein bars.

SPEAKER_00 9:21

I love it. I feel like when you see like an influencer in their carb, which is like a hunk of chicken, yeah, and you're like, psycho, but then you're like, what are you eating when you're eating like processed protein, which I also invict it. I have those like built puff bars and in my house right now. Love those for like a sweet treat, but I'm saying, like, wow, yeah, makes so much more sense.

SPEAKER_01 9:42

Protein content. I mean, a chicken cutlet, you know, you have carbs.

SPEAKER_00 9:44

If you want a chicken cutlet, they're delicious. I will drive at any time with a couple of things.

SPEAKER_01 9:47

I will drive around chomping on a chicken cutlet all day long.

SPEAKER_00 9:50

They can be like lukewarm, medium, room sensor. Cold, I don't know, it's still good.

SPEAKER_01 9:54

Straight out of the fridge.

SPEAKER_00 9:54

I think I've eaten a chicken cutlet driving home from your house in my car. Yeah. Because you just knew I didn't eat that day.

SPEAKER_01 10:00

Chicken cutlet on the colour.

SPEAKER_00 10:01

Chicken cutlet on the road. And I was like crumbling all over myself, and I was like, eh, it's fine. Uh no, I agree with that one. All right. Sure, I don't know. I'm sure somebody out there has a beef with it.

SPEAKER_01 10:12

But yeah, a lot of my harmless hills are food related.

SPEAKER_00 10:14

I was gonna say hard not to get just on a total food related.

SPEAKER_01 10:18

Except that first one. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 10:19

Um, ooh, my next one's gonna offend some people. I'm sorry, and if you're directly in my family, I'm sorry, but also I said what I said. No. Oh, okay. No, you're safe on this. Same. Let me tell you how safe you are. Mark safe. Showing up early. I don't mean like in a couple minute window. I mean like fractions of hours. Yeah, immediately you're safe. I don't even have to hear the rest of it. You can take a nap. I can talk about this one all by myself. Cool. No, I actually think you're gonna really agree with me. Yeah. I think that that can be as rude as showing up late. Agree. In this situation. I'm talking like a church meeting, show up early, God bless you. That's beautiful. Get your seat.

SPEAKER_01 10:57

How do you do it?

SPEAKER_00 10:58

I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about like at a party, an invitation, any kind of event where it's like in your home or you've invited people to come at a certain time because that is the time you are prepared to receive people. Agree. If you are a half an hour early before, it's like you're saying, You probably weren't ready for me. Yes. But here I am. And you're like, as a person who kind of likes to work until the last time. Half hour early, I'm still frying the cutlets.

SPEAKER_01 11:25

Yeah, I'm in my robe.

SPEAKER_00 11:27

Um, yeah, I feel like people think that early is polite, late is rude. And I'm here to say being too early is probably worse.

SPEAKER_01 11:39

Yeah, it's a thing.

SPEAKER_00 11:40

For a lot of people than late.

SPEAKER_01 11:42

Yeah, I agree with you.

SPEAKER_00 11:43

I do think coming too late to something you're invited to can be rude and like a struggle. But so I have more grace for that. But early can be just as rude.

SPEAKER_01 11:51

I'll jump on that hill. Okay. I'll stand with you.

SPEAKER_00 11:54

I know when I'm talking about early people, that does would not directly impact you. Yeah. Because we're kind of in the same boat on that. I'll jump on that. I don't know. I just it yeah. It's me personally, too, where I'm like, what are they doing to me? Yeah. You you do you know me at all? Like, I definitely have curlers and and I'm still like half hours aggressive. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01 12:14

I'll give you a five-minute graphic.

SPEAKER_00 12:15

I won't give you any personal yeah. I also think like maybe people are close to you, they're thinking, like, I'll come early and you know what? That's cool. Shoot me a text or let me know that's about to happen. Yes, and I'll prepare for that too. But when we're all unprepared for the early show-up, it's a struggle.

SPEAKER_01 12:34

Yeah, I will agree.

SPEAKER_00 12:35

Okay. I mean, just communication, maybe. Also, but if you're like a 13th cousin and you're not gonna help put the food out on the table, don't show up early. Yeah, drive around the block. I've said that to somebody. I'm like, why don't they just go get a coffee? Right when somebody was coming up too too early, I'm like, why don't they just drive around the block? I wouldn't do that.

SPEAKER_01 12:53

Or don't say, like, hey, I'm super early, can I come in? Like, no, don't even ask. Just chill in your car.

SPEAKER_00 12:58

Just go check out the neighborhood. Yeah, go get a coffee.

SPEAKER_01 13:00

Drive around, do a lap.

SPEAKER_00 13:02

I've gotten somewhere too early because I'm like a planner. Yeah, I like to like, oh, I'm going for the first time. I'm like, this is too early to show up. I'm gonna look nuts. I don't know. I'll go get myself.

SPEAKER_01 13:09

I don't know anything about that.

unknown 13:11

All right.

SPEAKER_00 13:13

Audience are one right now. I don't know. That's a personal thing.

SPEAKER_01 13:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 13:16

But anyway, I'm here to tell you. You might not be as polite as you think you are.

SPEAKER_01 13:20

Yeah, agree.

SPEAKER_00 13:22

Okay. Next time.

SPEAKER_01 13:24

I would like to throw out um pr okay, because of what we're dealing with in the Minton State.

SPEAKER_00 13:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 13:33

And I know that this is like a thing that we talk about all the time in the US with the FDA and yada yada yada. Uh-huh. But it is. It is a hill that I will die on. Producing food for the masses should have better criteria. The amount of recalls that we have on things, or even this, this how it's like you're spraying.

SPEAKER_00 13:58

Yes, like we don't actually know what's causing it. Right.

SPEAKER_01 14:00

And they're saying, well, you know, it's because like the fecal matter got into the water system and then the f the produce was irrigated with. Just all whatever it's from.

SPEAKER_00 14:11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 14:12

What I I have thought of so many different businesses where I'm like, well, I could start that. I could cook for people, and then I'm like, never mind. No, I want their responsibility. So much goes into that. Like, there's so much protocol as there should be. It's like the food to the masses that is going to the grocery stores that we are buying. We we have far too many recalls and things that are like killing people and making people severely ill. Like we got we gotta get better about this.

SPEAKER_00 14:36

I feel like that to me is it's a big hill because I was just reading about uh like an infant formula recall. Oh, see what I mean? And it gets, I mean, diarrhea lettuce is funny, but like it gets very, very what's the word? High stakes very quickly. Yeah. But then also the cynical trying not to be political me is like, yeah, because somebody lined somebody's pockets, and we're like, don't look, look away. And uh yeah, all right, I'm with you on that one. Also, I feel the exact same way. Like, I've had people be like, Why don't you make cookies on the side or something because I like doing decorated sugar cookies for like funsies for five people? Yeah, nope. Immediately I'm like overwhelmed. I'm like allergies and like sanitation and what if I stuck my finger in the dough and I forgot about it. Like, no, it's a lot of responsibility. I don't want that.

SPEAKER_01 15:26

So, like so then if you're in the business to the masses, you know, like you're coming back out saying, Never mind, there might be m traces of metal in that. Yeah, how did you even release it then? It to it shouldn't it have gone through like three different system for that?

SPEAKER_00 15:39

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 15:40

Okay. That's my again.

SPEAKER_00 15:42

I get super cynical. I guess it's like a bigger hell, but also I feel like it varies so much place to place, too, and then you're kind of like, oh, so they're not they can't eat that on Europe, but we're allowed to decide that. So immediately it's like political for me. Okay, let's go to a lighter one. All right, all right. Uh FaceTiming without a warning is aggressive and invasive. Which I do to my sister all the time and my brother. Yeah. Oh my gosh, no.

SPEAKER_01 16:09

Outside your family, right? Anybody my sister and my brother are never gonna get a face up.

SPEAKER_00 16:14

Chris, my husband of 18 years FaceTime me without a warning. Like, hey, I'm gonna FaceTime you. I don't, I would 50-50 whether I would accept that or not. Because I feel like just open it up with your wall. Like, I don't think that fast. Like, I just feel like, what are you doing? How did you just come up into my personal space changing?

SPEAKER_01 16:33

I'm FaceTiming you tomorrow. Oh my gosh. I mean, I'll decline.

SPEAKER_00 16:36

Do it all day long. I don't know if I've ever accepted one of those without like a text back that was like, hey, are you trying to FaceTime me? Right? Because also sometimes I feel like dialing FaceTime, right? I don't want to see anything I didn't see either. Did you intend to make that call? Yeah. Oh no, I don't. Maybe because nobody does it. And if they do, I'm like, what is wrong with you? So you do. If it was a part of my daily life, maybe I would just be like, oh, they're FaceTiming me again.

SPEAKER_01 16:59

What about like if Brad just shows up at your fr on your front door unannounced?

SPEAKER_00 17:03

Uh I would probably be like, what's going on? Is everything okay? But I would have I would open the door. Oh, okay. Even if I had curlers in my hair, it's just brand. Um, but FaceTiming feels like, well, this is also a thing because my kids will walk around. They have like friends that they met alone in your house all over the country, and they're like, I'm gonna talk to so-and-so. And I'm like, you do not have permission to walk around our house with another person on video. It's just the same as walking them into my bedroom physically or into our laundry room. I'm like hiding dirty clothes. Please don't do that. Yeah. So if you do that to me, if I'm standing in my laundry room or anywhere, I don't want to be on FaceTime. Bathroom, I'm getting ready in the morning, curlers in my hair. I've I'm most likely gonna decline that and text you and say, like, what are you doing? Okay, you're I just feel like it's aggressive. Yeah, it's like here I am in your face right now. And you don't even have like any choices in that moment except for to get rid of you. Yeah. You do FaceTime regularly, you'll surprise FaceTime people.

SPEAKER_01 18:01

I surprise FaceTime my sister andor my brother.

SPEAKER_00 18:03

Like, I'll talk to her privately. Does she like it? Is she don't care? Has she ever talked to you?

SPEAKER_01 18:10

I'm the oldest sister.

SPEAKER_00 18:12

We'll be checking in with that sister on the bus.

SPEAKER_01 18:14

Yeah, she probably doesn't like it.

SPEAKER_00 18:16

I show up at her door and I look in the door.

SPEAKER_01 18:18

I like knocking on it.

SPEAKER_00 18:19

I think preparation for everything. Yeah. I feel like I don't mind a FaceTime. FaceTime's great. Give me a heads up and I will decide if I'm ready for a FaceTime or if I need like 10 minutes or whatever. Just FaceTiming me feels invasive.

SPEAKER_01 18:33

It's fair. I'm not gonna do it.

SPEAKER_00 18:35

I know you won't. I mean, we don't FaceTime either.

SPEAKER_01 18:38

Yeah, but I feel like it's No, I meant I'm not gonna give you a heads up. If I feel like it, I'll just I won't accept your cost. I know.

SPEAKER_00 18:43

I still have power. I have power. If you come to my door, that's a tough one.

SPEAKER_01 18:48

Yeah, I've almost I've almost done that a couple times, but I refrained.

SPEAKER_00 18:52

It is a cultural thing too, where like, doesn't Sebastian Manascalco have a whole thing about when somebody rang your door like 30 years ago. You were like, lovely company. Do we have anentiments to serve them or something? Now, if somebody rings your doorbell, immediately it's like hit the ground. Yeah, hit the ground. Everybody's crawling around, I still do that like as a grown adult.

SPEAKER_01 19:11

True. I don't I'll like stand behind my door.

SPEAKER_00 19:15

I'm giving away all my secrets. Now my neighbors are like, I just wanted to give you your mail. I like stand up against the wall and like stare out, and I'm like, who is that?

SPEAKER_01 19:23

I don't the door I don't love. I mean, beyond family, I don't love that. So I'll give I'll give you that. But FaceTime, I'm just like, I don't know, you don't have to answer.

SPEAKER_00 19:31

That's exactly how I feel. I don't have to answer because like what are you doing in my face all of a sudden?

SPEAKER_01 19:36

Right?

SPEAKER_00 19:36

And you can't, it's like, I don't know, it must be something. Ironically, I'm on a podcast right now, but I'm saying, like, if I wanted to see you, I would have I would have caught up for you. Yeah, I would have thought ahead about what I want to look like and stuff. All right, I'll give you that one. I don't know. You can't be coming to me at all different times of the day, just like I'm in your face right now. Yeah, yeah, I'm dealing with that. Jeez. No, decline every time. Decline.

SPEAKER_01 20:00

Okay. Uh, I'll go in with a little this one's probably a little controversial as well. Might offend some people, but I won't yuck your yum, don't yuck mine. Yeah. Spaghetti sauce shouldn't be sweet. Oh, yeah, no, 100%. It can be, you know, there's there's levels.

SPEAKER_00 20:16

Sure. I feel like tomatoes, then you get a sweet bitch.

SPEAKER_01 20:19

It doesn't have to be super tart or super, you know, like you don't definitely want it to be like acidic or anything. But spaghetti sauce, um, or pasta sauce uh that is like overly sweet. Intentionally sweet. Intentionally sweet.

SPEAKER_02 20:32

We're sweetening it.

SPEAKER_01 20:33

Like more than like, I don't even know. Like, I don't use sugar in my sauce. I use wine, and like the you know, I don't even use that much wine. I don't know. If it's aggressively sweet, it shouldn't be. I will die on that hill.

SPEAKER_00 20:45

Yeah, I don't get that one either. I don't know. That doesn't make sense in my head. Why would you want this like tomatoy thing to be sweet? And some people like it.

SPEAKER_01 20:52

That's fine. And that's alright. I won't you're yum. That's your hill. But I'm over here on this hill, and that's that's what I believe.

SPEAKER_00 20:59

Also, should not have oregano in it, but that's for another day. Also, no oregano, but prefer to like podcast episode three or something.

SPEAKER_01 21:06

Might have been two. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 21:07

I'm so scared to put that out publicly.

SPEAKER_01 21:09

Right. Well, especially because people that we like know and love actually do that. That's your hill. Oh, that's cool. Do whatever you want. I just won't eat it.

SPEAKER_00 21:15

What did we just eat the other day? It is it's so subjective, especially food.

SPEAKER_01 21:19

Because I don't like oregano.

SPEAKER_00 21:20

Oh, we were in line, you know, Costco sample situation. I never hang out for a sample. I could not care less.

SPEAKER_01 21:26

You've been at Costco forever.

SPEAKER_00 21:27

First of all, if they're serving it at Costco, odds are I've had it, it's ongoing, or I'm not that intrigued by it. But they had rosemary parmesan.

SPEAKER_01 21:35

I don't like rosemary.

SPEAKER_00 21:36

Right?

SPEAKER_01 21:36

I like the person rosemary.

SPEAKER_00 21:38

It was aggressively rosemary. And Chris like waited in line to give me a piece, and I like gave it back to him because I tasted it. And he's like, Oh, that's funny because some kids were like repeating. I thought it would be really good. I'm like, it's not. It all it tasted like was rosemary, and I was it felt like I was chopping on somebody's garden.

SPEAKER_01 21:55

Yeah, that's the oregano thing, is purely well, no, I shouldn't say that because technically. Technically, it does, it's it belongs in pizza sauce, not in pasta sauce. But I don't even want it in my pizza sauce because I don't like oregano.

SPEAKER_00 22:06

It's just flavor I don't appreciate. Yes. I understand that.

SPEAKER_01 22:09

But you can do whatever you want. You do it. You do whatever you want. Do whatever you want.

unknown 22:11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:12

Um, how about this one? I feel like I don't know. I'm trying to gauge where you'll fall on this. If your kitchen feels clean, you can ignore what the rest of the house feels like. The kitchen has to be clean. Yeah. For everybody's mental health, the rest of the house can be like a little bit meh. You can ignore a lot of things. Agreed. But a messy kitchen cannot be tolerated.

SPEAKER_01 22:33

Agreed.

SPEAKER_00 22:34

It is directly linked to your wife or mother's mental health.

SPEAKER_01 22:38

I agree. Okay. Or like cluttered island or countertop, dishes out, messes from cooking, all of that.

SPEAKER_00 22:45

Immediately, no.

SPEAKER_01 22:47

Also, don't look at my kitchen.

SPEAKER_00 22:48

Counter knot, crumbly. Yeah. Like if I stick my arm and there's like crumbs. That settles me in a way that like socks on the floor do not matter. Yeah. As much. A clean kitchen. Maybe it is. It's like the harder your home, it's more important.

SPEAKER_01 23:02

Yeah, I agree. I'll jump on that hill.

SPEAKER_00 23:04

Okay. It's it's not very high stakes. Yeah. And also, if you have a dirty kitchen, I don't care about your kitchen. Yeah. I care about my kitchen. Yes. I don't walk into somebody's house and be like, their life is really falling apart right now because not even this kitchen is clean. Yeah. It's me. It's like directly, there's a directly, I don't know, there's like a link from that to my like state of mind.

SPEAKER_01 23:24

I agree. Okay. I feel the same way.

SPEAKER_00 23:26

And if you want to feel better about the state of your home, just start with your kitchen. And don't worry about all the rest of the stuff. And maybe if your kitchen feels clean, you just hang out in there and feel better about everything. Yeah. It works both ways.

SPEAKER_01 23:36

I agree.

SPEAKER_00 23:37

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 23:37

Okay. I I don't know how you feel about this one. This one could be controversial in the um uh spiritual sense or religious sense. Okay. I will die on this hill.

unknown 23:52

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 23:53

It might surprise you. And I don't know. I I would have kind of thought where you fell, but now that you are in a different place.

SPEAKER_00 24:03

Getting nervous. I actually have an anxious stomach. Okay. It's not that deep. Okay. It's not that deep, bro.

SPEAKER_01 24:09

Um all dogs go to heaven. I will die on that hill.

SPEAKER_00 24:13

Oh, I mean, I don't have I don't care.

SPEAKER_01 24:15

All dogs are there. The movie says so. I will fight you on this.

SPEAKER_00 24:19

I don't even care that much about dogs. I was gonna say, you didn't have an animal girl.

SPEAKER_01 24:23

But I do think Roxy will be there when I get there. And I'm yeah, I think Roxy.

SPEAKER_00 24:28

All dogs. I don't care. That's one of those things that I think is silly to talk about. Argue about. People argue about it. Sure. I don't care. We don't have a clue. I don't think we have a clue. I think we have some a little bit of like heaven is beautiful. Yes. Heaven has this. I don't know that we know all the things it doesn't have. Right. I understand all the spiritual implications of who's got a soul and who doesn't.

SPEAKER_01 24:47

I know for a fact there's streets of gold. I do. But I'm saying so.

SPEAKER_00 24:50

I feel like who would care to argue that? I don't care.

SPEAKER_01 24:53

There are people that would. For sure. And I would like to tell you that all dogs go to heaven.

SPEAKER_00 24:57

I'm not gonna king of the hill of that with you. I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna fight you at the top of that one. That's fine. I I love all those memes where it's like um I send them to my sister-in-law all the time. Because I'm a doggy lover. I love my doggy, and she's an animal lover. She's had lots of pets. And it'll be like um preaching the gospel to my dog or something. So I'm gonna be in heaven with me when the dog's just like staring. Or like, this is Jesus. Right. Easier to accept it. Or like baptizing my dog or whatever. I mean, those make me chuckle.

SPEAKER_01 25:28

Right.

SPEAKER_00 25:28

I'm not like that's so uh what's the word?

SPEAKER_01 25:30

Or like offensive or sacrilegious. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 25:33

I don't care. I don't care. Yeah, whatever it is, I just want to be there. Yes, whatever, I'll be happy. Either way, I don't need to argue with anybody on earth about it.

SPEAKER_01 25:43

It's my little hill.

unknown 25:44

All right.

SPEAKER_00 25:45

Oh my gosh, that movie though is like triggering. I know. Have your kids watched it?

SPEAKER_01 25:50

No.

SPEAKER_00 25:51

I feel like it was one of those like kid movies that they showed us, but gosh, it's heavy. I know what do we do under these kids?

SPEAKER_01 25:56

I I I struggle with movies over in the Last Bronze House house. Yeah, you guys don't.

SPEAKER_00 26:00

You know, they like watch old movies. Well, I mean, we would be.

SPEAKER_01 26:04

Me and Ryan and Gianni do. Ava doesn't.

SPEAKER_00 26:07

It's not Gianni too. Gianni's down for a good movie. Oh yeah, always. Oh, yeah. I feel like I won't go into it, but I feel like he gets really into some, right? Yes. It'll be like a like a fun thing for a while.

SPEAKER_01 26:16

He loves it.

SPEAKER_00 26:17

I love that. Because I'm the same way.

SPEAKER_01 26:19

Yeah, me too.

SPEAKER_00 26:20

Um, okay, here's another one. Who? I don't know. I don't know. This could be a little bit controversial. You should always tell somebody, stranger or not, if they have something wrong that's like easy, easily fixable. And my ideas were like lipstick on the teeth or uh trying to think. Um your zippers down. Yes, like, well, I feel like that gets weird.

SPEAKER_01 26:46

But why are you looking there?

SPEAKER_00 26:49

Like depending on who it is, I don't know. No, just like something that's like common or like they have a piece of tissue stuck to their face from shaving. I'm trying to think of more like men ones, but I don't have any. Yeah. Women, I feel like, I don't know, you have something real obnoxious in your teeth. It's not just like a little. You should always tell somebody that. Because then if you don't, if they didn't ask, that's okay. If you tell them and it's like that moment's awkward, fine. If they walk around the rest of the day like that and you could have helped them out, I feel like you always go for it. Yeah. Right? Yeah. Would you? Would you not? Because I feel like sometimes I don't, and I'm like, you should have told her. Jerk.

SPEAKER_01 27:24

Um most it's a stranger. Most times I would. Um, but I do think that there are people that wouldn't take kindly to that, which then it would just make me mad. So I I do try to gauge that. Like it's not that I don't always want to, but I'll kind of gauge, like, yeah, they don't look like they care what I think.

SPEAKER_00 27:42

That it is hard. I feel like if it's if it's me, I'm always like, tell me 100%. If I'm walking around with like my shirt tucked in in the back and it's not supposed to be, or something wrong. I have like toilet paper trail stuck to my shoe. Like, please tell me.

SPEAKER_01 27:57

Is there a part of you that's like nowadays, like who knows? Maybe somebody was like, I know that's what I wanted.

SPEAKER_00 28:03

I saw, I was like, um, I saw a thing about this, like always tell whatever. And then one of them was like, Yeah, always tell like a woman if like her bra strap's showing or something.

SPEAKER_02 28:12

And I was like, mmm, no.

SPEAKER_00 28:14

No, no, like lipstick on your teeth was never I hesitate to always the intention. I hesitate to say with anything. Yeah. But like you were pretty confident that that was a oopsies or the transfer happened after they did it. But like, I don't know, a bra strap or something like that. I feel like you don't know, so then just let that go.

SPEAKER_02 28:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:38

But I don't know. I'm trying to think of better examples, but like lipstick on the teeth, you know what I mean.

SPEAKER_01 28:42

Yeah. A giant lettuce. A stain on your pants on the back of your pants that looks like it's not chocolate. Hey, uh.

SPEAKER_00 28:49

Hey, yeah, I got a little something there. I'm trying to think of like non-offensive, more silly examples, but like truthfully, it is hard. Yeah. Especially if it's a stranger because you don't want to make it worse. Yeah. But best case scenario, you get to just run away from that situation. I mean, if it's somebody that you're like in a relationship with, I'm like, for me, 100% always.

SPEAKER_01 29:09

Yeah. I feel like a stranger is a little hard. If it's somebody that I don't know well, but I'm interacting with, yeah, that's easier. A stranger, like in Costco, I just feel like they'd be like, why are you like I'd be like, I got a little something in your nose. Why am I that close to a stranger in Costco?

SPEAKER_00 29:28

I could walk around in the general public all day. Yeah. Just being like, You got you got it all something.

SPEAKER_01 29:35

Well, I could too, but not in other ways.

SPEAKER_00 29:38

You're walking the wrong way. They're like, oh, you see things that nobody else sees. I'm like, wrong, wrong. Right. I love you. I'm telling you I saw this. Somebody else saw it, and they were just like, ew, gross. Right. Do you know what I mean? No. It's not that I have like supervision or I do, like smelling all the things. But I'm saying, like, no, other people don't love you, so they would never mention that. I love you.

SPEAKER_01 30:00

They don't care.

SPEAKER_00 30:00

I would rather you pluck that weird hair or something than walk around in the general public, and people are like, just got that one hair. It's all I can think about when I talk to her. Agree. It's not my my kids don't have random hair, so you know what I mean. Trying to be careful.

SPEAKER_01 30:13

But all right, uh, I got a light one, which I've talked about many times, but it's my hill and I'll die on it, so it deserves to be repeated. Okay. Coke products over Pepsi always.

SPEAKER_00 30:25

I agree with you there.

SPEAKER_01 30:26

You can fight me on this. I will go, I will fight about it. I've even had to, I've been forced. I will never drink a Pepsi, but I have been forced.

SPEAKER_00 30:35

But you will not drink a Pepsi. This is how a strong I feel about it. I will not drink a Pepsi. I'll take a Pepsi if there's no Coke.

SPEAKER_01 30:41

That's what I had to do when we were just together at our the recent thing that we went to, the event uh the week long. Okay. Um, they did not have coke. I had to drink Pepsi. It's gross. I I I taste.

SPEAKER_00 30:56

Yeah, so at this point you're just like at this point, I'm rather be drinking water. Yes. I'm not getting what I want. Iced tea, like it's sometimes I want like a crispy pop because I'm sick of just drinking water or whatever. And I'm like, I guess I'll take a Pepsi if I have to.

SPEAKER_01 31:09

And I guess if I were to say it in a more kind way, like they don't taste in any way the same. So if you do like Pepsi, that's alright. I won't yuck your yuck.

SPEAKER_00 31:20

No, it's just that you're expecting Pepsi. You like it.

SPEAKER_01 31:22

Yes. And I like Coke better, in my opinion. Yeah. It is premiere, but they are different. And if you don't taste the difference.

SPEAKER_00 31:32

I think this goes across the border, is it only with like the sugar free or the diet products? Or it's a bigger deal.

SPEAKER_01 31:37

All of them. Okay. I think I think it's sweeter.

SPEAKER_00 31:39

Uh which one? Coke or Pepsi?

SPEAKER_01 31:41

Pepsi. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 31:43

I don't know. I don't feel I don't feel like um informed enough. Yeah. But I do feel like it's worse with like the diet or the zero products.

SPEAKER_01 31:50

It's got like a I don't know. I don't like it.

SPEAKER_00 31:54

Yeah. Like my kids, and like pop is like one of the things where it's like a treat in our home, not to be like a psycho, but if I had like Coke or Pepsi in the fridge, they could not care less. Really? To them, it's just like, ooh, pop. Yes. Yeah. But like for me, if I had Coke Zero or like Diet Pepsi in my fridge, I would probably just ignore the Diet Pepsi until it went flat, kind of thing.

SPEAKER_01 32:20

And Johnny will drink Pepsi. Like, you know, so it's not even like, you know, it's not like I'm trying to like pass it down, right? I mean, I don't buy Pepsi, but every once in a while he'd be like, I mean that word does not get said. I mean it's illegal, but no, uh, he he'll drink it and he likes it. Like he's like out. Yeah, sometimes he'll tell me, like, can you buy some Pepsi?

SPEAKER_00 32:39

And I'm like, So they have like different flavors and stuff. So I feel like Pepsi cherry or whatever, all the fun things, then you're like, I okay. I resent I resent it. I feel like I could I wouldn't confidently do a taste test with you. I feel like I would just get all up in my head and be like, I don't know what's what. Yeah. I don't think I I know enough to know which one's which or how offensive the other one is.

SPEAKER_01 33:03

Yeah, Coke is just so much better.

SPEAKER_00 33:05

Okay. We should do like a fun taste test someday. I think it'd be fun. Um, like a Coke Zero, a Diet Coke, a Diet Pepsi. Does Pepsi do zero? What is that even? Do you even know the difference between the zero and the diet? Because I feel like there's a difference. I don't, but I taste better. Yeah, I think that it's the difference in the sweetener. Probably the special sweetener that they use.

SPEAKER_01 33:28

Yeah, I mean they're both probably bad. It's not like we've already I actually like Coke Zero better than Coke.

SPEAKER_00 33:34

Oh, okay. Like you think to it?

SPEAKER_01 33:37

No, I think even if I were like, I don't care about the sugar content or whatever.

SPEAKER_00 33:41

You're gonna still take a Coke Zero.

SPEAKER_01 33:42

I would still take a Coke Zero over taste-wise.

SPEAKER_00 33:44

Yeah. Interesting. Alright. Yeah. That would be a fun little experiment someday. Alright, on this food-related one, I'm gonna go with uh serving sizes that are silly, and we've talked about this before, should not be allowed. Silly, which would be i.e. half a tortilla. Oh yeah. I.e. seven chips. Yes. I an example, is that the right thing? I.e. for example, a tablespoon of like peanut butter or whatever. Like those impractical applications of that food are just ridiculous. Yeah. Just give it to us straight on the nutrition level. Like, stop playing your games. If everybody sits down and eats about 20 chips at a time, that's what this one is.

SPEAKER_01 34:28

I know there's a huge range. Quarter cup of nuts. Who's eating a quarter cup of nuts?

SPEAKER_00 34:32

That's what I mean. They have to do a quarter cup so you don't look at the label and freak out. But like, come on, stop playing games with us. We're not eating a quarter cup of nuts.

SPEAKER_01 34:39

Nobody's eating a quarter cup.

SPEAKER_00 34:40

Have you ever measured out two tablespoons of like we don't eat peanut butter in our house anymore? But like, it's so silly.

SPEAKER_01 34:45

Well, I don't like peanut butter.

SPEAKER_00 34:46

Oh, okay. I like Nutella. Oh, Nutella. Well, serving sizes.

SPEAKER_01 34:50

Of Nutella?

SPEAKER_00 34:51

You had to guess. What is the serving size? Or if you know, what is the amount that they're putting on the label?

SPEAKER_01 34:56

Of Nutella? Yes. Is that like a tablespoon or two tables? I think it's probably a tablespoon. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 35:02

Which is insane. Do you use a two? Like I'm saying. Like you might if you're eating the bottom.

SPEAKER_01 35:07

Like, no one's eating a tablepoon. Right?

SPEAKER_00 35:10

I just feel like stop with that. It's silly.

SPEAKER_01 35:13

Agree.

SPEAKER_00 35:13

We talked about a half a tortilla a couple episodes like a long time ago. But I'm saying, like, it's silly. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 35:18

Stop it. Clearly, I agree. And who's eating seven chips?

SPEAKER_00 35:22

I know. I mean, unless they're the size of a tortilla. I was gonna say, like I mean a normal potato chip or something. Stop it.

SPEAKER_01 35:31

I concur. That's why I love goldfish.

SPEAKER_00 35:33

We're on to the game.

SPEAKER_01 35:34

It's like 52 goldfish for like 130 calories. I'm like, yes.

SPEAKER_00 35:38

Oh, it's so funny. Thank you. That's so funny too. Because like I have like a little kitchen scale. So sometimes if I want to be like calorie conscious and like waste, I'll weigh it instead of like counting 52 goldfish. Yeah. I'm like, how many grams is that? Throw it on the scale. My kids like laugh at me. I love that though. Also, though, because we were just eating, I don't know, Swedish fish or something. I was like, you want to like laugh? Read the serving size. Like just be aware.

SPEAKER_01 36:01

Yeah, it's like three fish.

SPEAKER_00 36:02

And they were like, Mom. They were taking them to a movie or something. So we were like smuggling and yeah. I'm gonna eat the whole bat. And I give them like a little snack ziploc bag. And I'm thinking they're thinking they're gonna bust this thing at the seams, right? Yeah. But I was like, read a serving size just for funsies before you it's crazy. And it's like, you know, five fish or whatever. And they're like, Mom. So I'm like, I'm not saying you have to take a serving size. I'm saying be aware that that's like they're playing you. I agree. I mean, whatever. Whatever. Okay, that was my I have I have a couple food-related ones, but that was my serving sizes or a scam.

SPEAKER_01 36:36

I will go in with um if you're walking down the sidewalk.

unknown 36:42

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01 36:44

And somebody else is coming and there's two people walking, right? They're side by side. Side by side walking. Yeah, yeah. And I'm alone.

SPEAKER_00 36:51

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01 36:51

Those two people, you have to go in single file line.

SPEAKER_00 36:54

Fall in formation. You have to fall in formation. So easy.

SPEAKER_01 36:57

To let me pass.

SPEAKER_00 36:58

So agreeable.

SPEAKER_01 36:59

You would be so surprised how many people don't. And I'm like rubbing shoulders. And I'm like, you couldn't fall in line for this one second pass by. You're preaching to the choir, you know. I will die on that hill. You gotta fall in line. I agree. You gotta fall.

SPEAKER_00 37:12

In formation. This is so bad in my brain that Chris and I will be out for a walk, like in the evening in our sub, and that exact thing happens, and I'll be like immediately to him. I'll see you. The person is 200 yards away. You gotta make a plan. And I'm like, where are you going? The front in the back? Which way are you gonna go? Like, I am just talking about the plan. Yeah. Like who's in what formation before we even get close to this human being? Yeah. God forbid I should make that um human being uncomfortable in the smallest sense. Not on my watch. So I'm like, front back, what are you doing? What are you doing? With the dog, I'm like, it's a whole conversation. Yeah. Because I would never dare. I'm sorry. People do it all the time. Nobody's taught them how to be a better human being. I know. I don't know. I don't know. What it's like. Back to our petty grievances. Like, what are people doing? Right. What are we doing? I know. Telling our kids. What are we even doing?

SPEAKER_01 38:00

Some of these can so easily turn into petty grievances. I just feel like there's so many of these things.

SPEAKER_00 38:04

Well, because of the hill that we're on, and everybody is just on the ground. Like, what are you talking about? You're crazy. And you're like, no. No. This is worth talking about.

SPEAKER_01 38:12

It's like a standard thing, right? Like you would think. There's never a situation where you shouldn't do that. There's more of you than there is. I can't go anywhere else. I've only taken up one spot. You're taking up two. Fall in line.

SPEAKER_00 38:24

Yeah. Just adjust yourself accordingly. Yep. Okay. This one's gonna be a little controversial. And meanwhile, I have one with me. So Stanley's not that great.

SPEAKER_01 38:36

No, I don't use them. Do you like them? I don't use them anymore.

SPEAKER_00 38:38

I feel like they're not really the hot thing anymore. So I can say this. Had I said this a few years ago, people would have been like, they're the best, they're amazing.

SPEAKER_01 38:44

Well, they'd come for you.

SPEAKER_00 38:45

They keep my stuff cold. That's fine. The cleaning of these mechanisms, and honestly, this one's in good condition. Maybe it's newer, but like we have a few that like pain is completely chipping off. Yeah. We're like hand washing them, we're not throwing them in our dishwasher.

unknown 39:01

They're not great.

SPEAKER_01 39:02

No. And here's voices. Also, what I don't like about them. Yes. I now um like only use a hydro jug. I always want to say flask. The hydro jug.

SPEAKER_00 39:11

The hydro flask is another thing.

SPEAKER_01 39:13

Yes, but hydro jug, I believe it's called.

SPEAKER_00 39:16

I have, I think, one of those now.

SPEAKER_01 39:17

It's the same thing. It's 40 ounces. Uh-huh. Stainless steel on the inside. It's all the same, like, you know, mechanisms. The straw folds in. And it's non-spill. It's non-spill, but also like, and maybe this is just my like. I can't touch things. Well, and I like dabble in germophobia. Yeah. Dabble. Because like I well, I mean, I am a germophobe, but I'm not crazy.

SPEAKER_00 39:40

You dabble in it.

SPEAKER_01 39:41

I dabble.

SPEAKER_00 39:42

We talked about how you go to a hotel. Mate is not allowed like in your room. You're cleaning your own stuff.

SPEAKER_01 39:49

I double dab. I dabble. I'll let you walk in my house with your shoes on. Like, you know what I mean? Okay. All right. Not on my carpeted areas.

SPEAKER_00 39:57

Not exposed.

SPEAKER_01 39:58

It's not exposed. So like the element. When I was in my hot yoga class yesterday.

SPEAKER_00 40:01

Ew.

SPEAKER_01 40:02

We deep breathed. And when we were done, okay, it's a it's a weighted class. So you're moving, you're shaking, you're sweating. Yes. I project so much sweat. I'm not doing it on you.

SPEAKER_00 40:14

No, I'm getting like grossed out.

SPEAKER_01 40:16

I project so much sweat onto the mirror that I'm like, what if someone else's sweat was on my straw? It would be. And then I would be. So I need that thing.

SPEAKER_00 40:25

No, I'm not 100% with you. Yeah. There's a lot of reasons why I prefer that one right now. I just got a new one because I'm like, these stupid, like, I'm sick of these stupid Stanley. Yeah. Also, my kids wanted them. Yeah. And I'm like, teacher, I could not physically send them to school with one. Because in my brain, all I heard throughout the course of the day is like 10 of these things hitting the ground and just dumping water because they don't want like the cute little collapsible strong ones. They want like the stupid 40 giant tub of water that's just gonna get knocked over on the floor. And I was like, I will not make your teacher clean up 30 spills today. Sorry. I can't do it. You can walk around the neighborhood with it if it makes you feel cool, but like I will not send that thing to school. But I just feel like why is it sometimes that a trend happens and you're all in and you're like, yeah, they're the best, and then you live with it for a little while and you're like, Oh, I got dupes, right?

SPEAKER_01 41:16

Also, are we all gonna need like wrinkle care and how many years because we're just talking about that with somebody drinking out of straws?

SPEAKER_00 41:24

And they make those like flute straws. Yeah, I was like, if you ever see me with one of those, it's just like punch me. Right? No offense. But I do like it. You drink out of a flute straw because you don't want lip wrinkles, but like, yeah, I get the grossed out, like germophobia. I get all that too, and like the exposed straw, like right now, mine has lipstick on it, it's gross out.

SPEAKER_01 41:41

Is that the straw that comes with it?

SPEAKER_00 41:42

This one I think is the clear straw that came with the clear lid with the Stanley. That's the other thing that it's a few years old.

SPEAKER_01 41:47

I can't do those straws.

SPEAKER_00 41:48

I taste it.

SPEAKER_01 41:50

I have to get glass straws.

SPEAKER_00 41:51

Oh, glass straws, they make me nervous. I'm afraid I'm gonna shit my teeth. But I get it. I'm just saying, like it's that whole like somebody will come out and say, like, this product is so great, and then you try it and you're like, okay, here's a little hill for us. Right?

SPEAKER_01 42:03

You're just doing it because everything's great. Agree.

SPEAKER_00 42:06

And cleaning that is a little bit of a nightmare. It it's a big when you pull all the little pieces apart, and then you're like, how do I put this back together? Ugh.

SPEAKER_01 42:12

I just throw mine away.

SPEAKER_00 42:13

That's where I'm kind of at. Some of our stuff is getting pitched lately. Yeah. I'm on a perch.

SPEAKER_01 42:18

Um I have like an aggressive amount of other harmless hills I'd like to die on. And I'm wondering if we should do a part two.

SPEAKER_00 42:26

Aggressive amount sounds fun. I do. I have like a bunch more. No, for sure. We can do a part two.

SPEAKER_01 42:30

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 42:31

I have some more to contribute, but I can do some more thinking, stewing over the course of the week and come up with some more for sure.

SPEAKER_01 42:39

I think we should keep the viewers waiting. Okay. Like keep them hungry.

unknown 42:44

I know.

SPEAKER_00 42:45

They're like this girl. She's got a lot of complaints.

SPEAKER_01 42:48

They're like, we literally do not care what hills you're on, please stop talking.

SPEAKER_00 42:53

For sure we might get that on social media. So yeah, let's um Yeah, we'll come back for a part two. Come back for a part two. Harmless hills. Yes. That we will die on.

SPEAKER_01 43:01

SPEAKER_00 43:18

We used to do a whole episode of things that you either misheard as a kid or things you say wrong or things that your spouse says wrong to this day. Right. Like that. I love those. Also, they trigger me. And I'm not sure butter. You're a grown-up now. You can't walk around saying mohill.

SPEAKER_01 43:43

What is the word like not air, like some of them are like specific to your area. Like I didn't realize you probably don't, because I know that you are more aware of these things. But like we'll say, like, well, I'm gonna go to Meyers.

SPEAKER_00 43:54

Yeah, oh the apostrophe, yeah. But it's Meyer. I'm gonna go to Kroger. It's Kroger. It's Meyer. Uh, we tease my mom about that because we're like Nordstroms like their house, you go in there because you know them. Yeah, it's like it's Meyers. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, no. Why do we do that? I don't know. A lot of us do. I have so many of those. Or I love hearing people's like misheard lyrics because like you do it too, and then you're like, oh, I would never repeat that. That's so embarrassing. I thought they were saying this, and then you're like, everybody thought they were saying this. Everybody. I love that that was definitely find some. Okay, fun for another day.
